Dr.
Group’s quote of the month: “To
the ego, the present moment hardly exists.
Only past and future are considered important.
The present moment holds the key to liberation.
But you cannot find the present moment as
long
as you are your mind. Thought cannot
exist without consciousness, but consciousness
does
not need thought ”

Artichoke Extract: A study involving 553 patients with various
chronic digestive disorders had subjects take
320 mg capsules of artichoke extract 1 – 2
times per day for six weeks (J Gen Med 1996;
2:3-19).
Results showed a decrease in symptoms by
70.5% in general, while vomiting decreased by
88.3%, nausea 82.4%, abdominal pain 7.2%, loss
of appetite 72.3%, constipation 71.0%, flatulence
68.2% and fat intolerance 58.8%. What was even more interesting was that
results also showed that the artichoke extract
caused blood cholesterol levels to decrease significantly.
The subjects’ average serum cholesterol
fell from about 264 mg/dL to 233 mg/dL. Likewise their triglyceride levels also
fell by 12.5% from 214.97 mg/dL at the beginning
of the study to 188.07 mg/dL by the end of it.
**As
acetaminophen breaks down in your body, about
5% of it is metabolized into a potentially deadly
toxin. This toxin is normally neutralized in
your liver.
However, when taken in too high a dose,
the toxin overwhelms and damages your liver. In fact, acetaminophen overdose is the
leading cause of hospitalization for acute liver
failure.

The Poison you Drink Every Day:
First, 99 percent of the milk we have available
to us is pasteurized and homogenized. The problem is that in the pasteurization
process, all the vital enzymes that allow the
milk’s calcium to be available to your body
are killed.
The result is that most of the calcium
in the milk simply passes through your system.
There’s
a great deal of research on the unhealthiness
of drinking milk – much of which was conducted
by a dentist several years ago. He found that when he fed homogenized
and pasteurized milk (again, the only milk available
to the general public) to cats, it caused profound
and rapid degeneration in all species tested. No one has yet refuted those conclusions
** The Dangers of
Mercury:
One amalgam filling releases
3,000,000,000,000,000 mercury atoms per day
into
the body. Mercury poses a serious threat to normal
kidney function. Men and women chronically
exposed
to mercury are at risk for lowered fertility.
Mercury poisoning has possible links to autism,
multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome,
Alzheimer’s disease, cerebral palsy, and
more.
** Clinical tests have shown
that Trilovin 250 increases
circulation to the genitals, similar to nitric
oxide… but without the harmful side effects. And, unlike yohimbine – Trilovin
250 doesn’t increase blood pressure!
And it works with gingko biloba and ginseng…while
delivering a superior punch of libido-enhancing
energy in just one supplement. Trilovin 250 can help make you feel like
you’re in love again – and Trilovin
250 can help give you the power to show it.
For
optimum efficiency, it is recommended that you
take 1500 mg of Trilovin 250 per day (2 tablets
3-times daily) for two weeks, and then a week
off. After that, Trilovin 250 can be taken
as a regular part of your supplemental diet, especially
in times of peak performance or strenuous activity.
** Healthy
Joints: Known today as Lyprinol, the green-lipped
mussel extract has only recently been made
available
through very limited channels in the United States.
Backed by 30-years of research by an international
team of scientists, Lyprinol’s easy-to-swallow
gelcaps are:
* Proven to support healthy,
limber joints
* Free from side effects,
solvents, toxins, metals, and impurities
* Protective of the GI tract,
unlike aspirin and ibuprofen
* 350 times stronger than
other fish oils
* Salt-free, and more acceptable
for cardiac patients
* Protective of the joints,
without the burning of some topical ointments.
Certainly everyone reacts
differently to all kinds of treatment, but the
response to Lyprinol is overwhelming.
In a recent randomized, double blind trial
of Lyprinol, more than 70% of the participants
experienced improvement in joint tenderness, morning
stiffness, and pain perception.

Ten years ago, physician and
researcher Dr. Mary Cody uncovered a hidden
property of the
Old World herb Plantago
Major. While researching natural ways to
help her patients stop smoking, she found that
it can
cause a natural aversion to tobacco, make the
difficult goal of quitting smoking easier to
achieve.
Instead of simply reducing the level of
nicotine in the blood, Dr. Cody was looking
to
find a natural supplement to eliminate the pleasure
associated with smoking.
Recent studies show she found the answer
in Plantago
Major.
Dr.
Cody believed that extracts from Plantago
Major, when inhaled or ingested, cause a strong
physical aversion to tobacco.
In 1992, her theories were put to the test
in a clinical trial.
Twenty-four heavy smokers (at least a pack
a day) were given a regular administration of
Plantago
Major tincture through a nasal spray and were
then instructed to smoke. The results were impressive. Eighty-three percent of the subjects felt
an aversion to tobacco shortly after receiving
the dose. The effect lasted anywhere from 2 to 24
hours
