Reducing All The Time & Costs For Breast Cancer Treatments  

What if there was a way to have the same effectiveness for treating breast cancer without having to get three to six weeks of daily radiotherapy sessions? Well, there is now a way to do this that was reported in the journal BMJ Open. A new device is able to deliver a single targeted dose of radiotherapy during surgery. The treatment is called TARGIT for targeted intraoperative radiotherapy and it is applied directly to the breast tissue during the surgery. While it adds around 20 to 40 minutes to the surgery, in most cases it eliminates the need for the daily radiotherapy treatments. So…the patient saves weeks of treatments that also reduces all their time and their money costs – quite an improvement to get the same results.

What To Do If Your Child Begins To Show Symptoms Of Autism 

 Whether or not you think vaccines are the cause of autism, the research shows that the rate of autism has been exploding to where 1 in 50 children fall on the autism spectrum. So, what if your child starts to come down with symptoms of autism, such as, loss of eye contact, unresponsive to sounds and other stimuli, and the sudden inability to walk, is there anything you can do? The answer is yes.

Developmental pediatrician, Dr. Mary Megson of the University of Virginia has developed a framework for treating autism based on discovering that the Vitamin A pathways in the brain have become blocked. She examined the children coming to her practice and discovered that they were getting lots of synthetic Vitamin in their diets. When she switched the children to the natural Vitamin A in Cod Liver Oil, the children’s symptoms of autism were greatly reduced or eliminated.

With an infant who was showing symptoms of autism, she rubbed a teaspoon of cod liver oil once a day on the baby’s belly or gave it in the child’s bottle for 2-3 days and the child returned to normal. You can watch a video of her presenting at a conference at http://www.autismone.org/content/4-rs-recovery-mary-megson-md.

There are three brands of Cod Liver Oil that Dr. Megson recommends. They are

Green Pasture Products: Blue Ice Fermented Cod Liver Oil
NutraPro International: Virgin Cod Liver Oil
Rosita real Foods: Extra Virgin Cold Liver Oil

  A Way To Reduce Fibromyalgia Pain

There’s now a way to reduce the pain that fibromyalgia causes. A recent study had 27 women with fibromyalgia on a low dose of naltrexone (Depade) (4.5 mg) daily for 12 weeks. Naltrexone is normally used to treat narcotic addiction. After 12 weeks the patients took a placebo for four weeks. The naltrexone reduced the patients pain by an average of 48.5% compared with 27.4% for the placebo. Since the low dose used in this study isn’t available at a regular pharmacy, so ask your doctor to get an off-label prescription for naltrexone from a compounding pharmacy.

   Now's The Time For Some Humor 

I ran across some fun statements that make you think that I want to share with you:

1. Never test the depth of the water with both feet.
2. Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you’re a mile away and you have their shoes.
3. If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything.
4. Duct tape is like “The Force”. It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.

 The Power Of Olive Oil To Lower The Risk Of Breast Cancer 

The Mediterranean diet has been found to be a very healthy approach to eating. One of the elements in the diet is extra-virgin olive oil. A study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that extra-virgin olive oil is associated with a relatively lower risk of breast cancer. The substance in the oil lowering the risk may be an antioxidant called oleocanthal. The way oleocanthal works is by attacking the cancer cell’s waste storage centers which are larger and more fragile than in healthy cells. Oleocanthal is able to enter these storage centers and cause cell death while not harming healthy cells. So…salad with extra-virgin olive oil, please.

Zika May Not Be The Danger It Was Thought To Be 

In this blurb, I’m going to be going against the media that has been pushing the dangers of the Zika virus that it causes congenital microcephaly and other birth defects. It’s starting to look like that may not be the case at all. Dr. Fatima Marinho, director of information and health analysis at Brazil’s ministry of health, told the journal Nature, “We suspect that something more than the Zika virus that is causing the high intensity and severity of cases.” His statement is based on the fact that while the virus has spread throughout Brazil, 90% of the birth defects have been in the northeast region. Plus the outbreaks occurred in largely poverty-stricken agricultural areas in the northeast where large amounts of banned pesticides are still being used.

In addition, there are preliminary results from a New England Journal of Medicine study that followed 12,000 pregnant Columbia women who were infected with the Zika virus. The researchers have not found a single case of microcephaly in the babies as of May 2016. Florence Fouque, a World Health Organization expert called the response to the Zika virus “completely hysterical.”

So, in the United States, we may be moving into spraying harmful chemicals all over the place and getting them in our water supply over a danger that may not exist.

Cupping At The Olympics 

If you watched the swimming portion of the Olympics you may have heard or read the news reports about the Michael Phelps and other swimmers using the ancient Chinese technique of cupping to help their performance. Of course, the news media simply pooh poohed the idea that cupping could affect performance.

First, cupping is applying suction cups of varying sizes that are attached to the body. When suction is applied it draws blood to the surface of the skin and is supposed to improve blood circulation, speed up healing, reduce pain and ease muscle soreness.

What the media missed is that there have been a number of studies on the effectiveness of cupping. A 2014 review of 16 studies on cupping showed that there was significant benefit from cupping compared to drugs and the usual medical care for pain.

A study published this year in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine found that cupping significantly reduced chronic neck and shoulder pain when compared to no intervention. The cupping group had their pain reduced from a severity score of 9.7 to 3.6 while the controls only dropped from 9.7 to 9.5.

Finally, a meta-analysis of 550 studies published in PLOS One found that cupping was significantly superior to other treatments in the number of cured patients with herpes zoster, facial paralysis, acne and cervical spondylosis. So…while the media is pooh poohing cupping, take advantage of the benefits that you can experience.

 Feedback From A Client On The Impact Of My Program

Here’s what John Schindler, Training Director, Alabama Banking Department had to say about the impact of my programs: “I first heard Jerry Teplitz speak at the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS) Education Forum in Savannah, GA in 2007. I thought he was impressive and really enjoyed his presentation. I was able to use many of the things he said as tools in my job. I asked Jerry to speak at our Examiner Training Conference in 2010 and was again impressed with the content of his presentation. Our employees were equally impressed and gave very high evaluations on Jerry’s presentation.

Jerry has now made four presentations to our staff over the years and we will consider him again in the future. He always makes effective presentations and scores high ratings from attendees.”
