    Back from Vietnam. My husband Walter and I had a fascinating trip. We took an overnight train to Sapa, just below the border of China. Here you can see a medicine woman from one of the mountain tribes in the area dispensing herbs and advice. She may have walked up to half a day to get to this market. In the photo below you can see some type of...

    I get cranky whenever a barrage of advertising comes out trying to sell us a new illness. Lately you may have seen ads telling you “If you’ve ever had chickenpox, you’re at risk for Shingles.” Were you worried about shingles before Merck started a marketing campaign for shingles vaccinations recently? Probably not. Shingles is not a new illness. The only thing new here is that the FDA approved a...

    LOL, I recently read an article on Medscape, a well-respected online medical educational site, about chronic constipation. Here’s the synopsis of the article: a lot of people get constipated. They try home remedies such as water and fiber supplements. When that doesn’t help, medical doctors want to know what else they can do besides prescribing polyethylene glycol, which can help temporarily by inducing diarrhea. One new medical breakthrough is...

    Someone with math skills tried to figure out the percentage of people on the planet who have eaten a McDonald’s burger.  The figure was 61%.  I am sure that number is on the rise;  my friend Nikhil tells me he was shocked to see McDonald’s restaurants had popped up everywhere in his home city of Mumbai, India since he last visited.  Also on the rise are the number of...

    Does diet affect rheumatoid arthritis? Dr. Michael Greger, who narrates the above video, says “YES.” A plant-based diet is where it’s at whether you’re trying to clear up a chronic disease, or just prevent one. If you’d like to see more of Dr. Greger’s videos, go to nutritionfacts.org, where you’ll find a fantastic array of nutrition information based on the latest research. Honestly, it’s not fun for me to...

  • Medical, Inc. Film Coming out In Favor of Chiropractors!

    I was delighted when I found out about Jeff Hayes’ latest film, Medical, Inc., due to be released summer 2012. Once you’ve seen this film, you’re going to have to question the medical model of health care. Many people have been buying into the premise that, if health insurance covers the cost of something, a drug as opposed to a chiropractor, for example, then the drug is the better...

  • Vertigo: Take Two

    The Alfred Hitchcock movie, “Vertigo,” is a classic mystery thriller. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), the description given to symptoms such as dizzy spells, sudden loss of balance, and a sense that the world is spinning or dropping away, is not so much of a thrill. Nor is it as much of a mystery as doctors sometimes make it out to be. Here’s the deal: you’re feeling terrible; your...

    Back in chiropractic school, we were taught that nutritional deficiencies were something you’d see in poor countries where people didn’t get enough to eat. As a chiropractor who has been practicing over 20 years, I wish there was a way I could have known then, what I know now. Vitamin deficiencies resulting from malnutrition are common in people right here in Rancho Cucamonga. There are several reasons why this...

    Lately, more of my nice patients, like Mrs. Jones*, come in and tell me they got prescribed Norco by their M.D.’s. Mrs. Jones has it in her handbag right now. She’s going to take a dose later on at the office. She might share one with a coworker who looks like she needs it. Mrs. Jones doesn’t know what she’s getting involved with, and I am mad at her...
