End Fatigue

What Supplements the Experts Themselves Take!

In this article we'll talk a bit about the power of natural medicine, and how to use it to treat illnesses that your doctor thinks are untreatable as well as simple tricks that can help you lose weight, maximize energy and vitality, and look years younger. In addition, haven't you ever wondered what experts in the field take themselves for their daily regimen? Having been in Comprehensive Medicine for 30 years, published numerous research studies, books and articles, and read tens of thousands of studies, I'll share my regimen with you. And I don't like (or take) handfuls of pills!

Comprehensive Medicine—Curing the Incurable!

In past articles, we've talked about how only having prescription medications or surgery would be like a carpenter only having a hammer in his tool kit. It is no wonder, given this limitation, that most doctors find so many illnesses to be untreatable. After 30 years practicing Comprehensive Medicine, which uses the best of Natural and Allopathic (prescription/surgical) therapeutics, I have found that there are very few problems that can not be helped when you have this complete tool kit at your disposal!

Another benefit of using a comprehensive Medicine approach, beyond its being much more effective, is that it is generally safer and less expensive. For example, in previous articles I discussed how treating Sciatica/disc disease using IV colchicine costs only $18 total plus the cost of starting 6 IVs . These treatments, and hundreds more, are discussed in my new book Pain Free 1-2-3! This treatment for back pain/sciatica is safer and much less expensive than surgery (cost ~$27,000), has good research supporting it, and in my experience is even more effective than surgery. Similarly, carpal tunnel syndrome routinely resolves after 6 weeks of natural thyroid hormone, vitamin B6 @ 250 mg/day, and wearing wrist splints at night (cost ~$45 vs. $2,000-$4,000 for surgery). Another example is the mineral strontium, which is ~ 170 improvement in your quality of life? I do. I take 1 scoop of Corvalen (D-Ribose) (5 gms—it's a powder that looks and tastes like sugar) a day added to the Energy Revitalization System (Berry or Citrus) vitamin powder each day. Start with 1 scoop of each, every a day the first month, but lower the dose if you get hyper from being too energized.

How About Sleep?

They call it beauty sleep for a reason! Getting at least 8 hours of deep sleep a night raises growth hormone (called the "fountain of youth hormone") and causes weight loss. The 2 other natural ways to raise growth hormone are exercise and sex. In fact a recent study showed that having sex 3x week left women looking 10 years younger, and the authors theorized that this was because of the rise in growth hormone. So there are all kinds of ways to look good. Isn't it nice that you can sleep your way to being thin and beautiful!

Unfortunately, although the average American was getting 9 hours of sleep a night 100 years ago, we are now down to less than 7 hours a night. This is not enough time for your body's repair and regeneration cycles, and inadequate sleep causes pain and fatigue, in addition to weight gain and looking older.

It is estimated that over 70 million Americans, however, suffer from insomnia and other sleep disorders. Sales of sleeping pills, many of which actually worsen sleep quality and are addictive, are skyrocketing. The good news is that powerful, safe and effective natural sleep aids are available.

The Revitalizing Sleep Formula (30 ct or 90 ct)

This is a wonderful mix of 6 herbs that are outstanding for sleep and put most products to shame. It contains wild lettuce, Jamaican dogwood, hops, theanine, valerian, and passion flower. Take 1-4 capsules 30-60 minutes before bedtime (I use 2 a night). It is made by Enzymatic Therapy.

How About Stress?

Because of the stress of modern life, many of us have Adrenal gland (the stress handler) exhaustion. If you get irritable when hungry, have low blood pressure, crash with stress, or get dizzy for a few seconds on standing, you may have adrenal exhaustion. I use Adrenal Stress End.

What Else Do You Find Helpful?

Although the Energy Revitalization Powder (Berry or Citrus), Corvalen, Revitalizing Sleep Formula (30 ct or 90 ct), and Adrenal Stress End are what I take on a regular basis, there are other things I keep in my medicine cabinet.

An outstanding immune stimulant that every one should have in their home is ProBoost by Klabin Marketing. This thymic hormone (which regulates the immune system) mimic is the most effective product I've seen for acute infections. If I am coming down with a cold, I use a packet 3 times a day and it's almost always gone by the next day. Whenever my kids are getting a bug, the first thing I hear is "Dad, where's the white powder!".

For pain, you don't have to choose death by Motrin or Vioxx vs. staying in pain. Willow bark and Boswellia have each been shown to be as or more effective than Motrin and Vioxx-but very safe and inexpensive. Cherry is also excellent for inflammation. All 3 can be found in End Fatigue Pain Formula by Enzymatic Therapy. Take 1-4 tabs 3x day till the pain is controlled (the effects begin immediately and increase over 6 weeks) and then lower the dose or take as needed.

Do You Have Anything For Depression And Anxiety?

Two new products (by Health Freedom Nutrition) are outstanding for these and my patients love them. Calming Balance is a mix of many natural products that are excellent for anxiety. My patients have been amazed that it not only restores calm, but increases energy and mental clarity at the same time. It starts to work within 30 minutes, but the effects increase over 2 weeks.

Happiness 1-2-3! Is a wonderful treatment for depression. It starts to work in 2 weeks but reaches full effectiveness at 6 weeks and can be much more effective than anti-depressants without the side effects!
