The Safety and Effectiveness of Bio-Identical Hormones: Natural (Bio-Identical) vs. Synthetic HRT

BY:
Published: October 4, 2012
Categories:

Below is a review of the medical literature demonstrating how natural hormones are superior to their synthetic counterparts. The conclusion is clear that bio-identical hormones are a safe alternative to Premarin and medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA), marketed as Provera. The natural bio-identical hormones are very different from their synthetic versions, often having completely opposite physical and cellular effects. Thus, it is critical that women be given the information that these natural hormones do not have the negative side effects of the synthetic hormones and in no way pertain to the conclusions reached by the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study. Natural hormones are a safe and more conservative approach to hormone replacement therapy that does not carry the risks associated with Premarin and Provera.

Aspirin's Risks Outweigh Benefits in Preventing Heart Disease

BY:
Published: October 4, 2012
Categories:

UK researchers analyzed nine studies involving more than 100,000 patients and found that taking a daily aspirin to prevent heart disease increased the risk of serious stomach bleeds by 30% — but only decreased the risk of heart attacks by 10%. In other words, aspirin did a lot more harm than good. The researchers' conclusion: routine use of aspirin to prevent heart attacks isn't justified.

Last issue we began the discussion of how our health care system has lost its way. Doctors are losing the "Art of Medicine," and the so called "Science of Medicine" has been hijacked by drug company money. Let's look at this issue a bit closer, as it is a critical piece of the problem.

Low Thyroid and Weight Gain - Despite Normal Tests

Published: October 4, 2012
Categories:

A low normal thyroid will pack an AVERAGE 12.5 extra pounds on most women. This is one more reason I recommend a trial of thyroid hormone in unexplained weight gain. The thyroid is pretty safe if used as directed, but the unaddressed low thyroid can kill you. While you're saving your life with thyroid hormone, it can help you lose weight too. ;-)

7 Simple Tips for Dry Eyes and Mouth

Published: October 4, 2012

Dry eyes and mouth can have many causes. It is a common feature of CFS and fibromyalgia, and it often responds to simple nutritional support. In other cases, it may reflect autoimmune conditions such as Sjogren's Syndrome, which knocked Venus Williams out of this year's U.S. Open tennis championship — a consequence I think may have been avoidable. Fortunately for her, she changed her diet and was able to get back on the tour!
