Since this letter, which I wrote in response to a

special health report in the June 24 issue of Newsweek, was not

published, I am circulating it to a few people who, I think,

would be interested in it. One of my correspondents did get it

published on http://www.RumorMillNews.com

 

Any positive or negative - but constructive - feedback

would be appreciated.

The Editor, Newsweek

 

Sir/ Madam,

 

I appreciate Newsweek's efforts to report the latest in

medical research and treatments for its readers, but I suggest

that the best solutions to all the large chronic health problems

in the modern world are far easier found in the trenches of

natural, nutritional and metabolic medicine than in the research

done at the behest of the pharmaceutical industry.

 

Medicine has strayed so far off the path of these basic

approaches that, to hear the young doctors speak, the only

solution to every chronic illness is some 'magic bullet' drug!

 

I also suspect that the vast monetary resources of the

pharmaceutical industry has diverted the attention of physicians

from the previous commendable search for the deficiencies and

other metabolic abnormalities that underly dementia. Yes,

dementia. Even the subtle switch to the term 'Alzheimer's -

" for which there is no known cause " - seems designed to make

physicians forget that vitamin B12 deficiency, hypothyroidism

(detected, undetected, or undertreated), zinc deficiency, copper

excess (from copper plumbing), and other deficiencies and

toxicities, are all common causes of dementia.

 

Dementia can be prevented by preventing and/ or

treating these deficiencies and/ or imbalances - but 'Alzheimer's

dementia', which, by definition, has an unknown cause, is

surely " a hopeless, relentless condition for which there is only a

palliative or ameliorative pharmaceutical product to stem its

terrible effects, and only to a mild degree " .

 

There must also be some sort of conspiracy at work to

keep the so-called " normal ranges " of vitamin B12, thyroid

hormones, zinc, copper, etc., in the blood ridiculously extreme

- so that the pharmaceutical industry can profit from presenting

itself as the " only available solution " to " Alzheimer's " .

Keeping the vitamin B12, thyroid and other hormone, zinc,

copper, etc., blood levels of all one's patients' in an optimal

range - and not adhering to the so-called 'normal ranges' for

these substances - can prevent all of them from developing

dementia/ 'Alzheimer's! What a shame that there are so few

practitioners employing this strategy!

 

As I advised Newsweek in the wake of a recent series

it published on AIDS research (all pharmaceutical), I suggest

that Newsweek (or any other appropriate organization) do a poll or

survey of the elderly patients in natural and nutritionally

oriented medical practices to see whether they have the same

bleak outlook in cognitive decline and other chronic health

problems as is the average for aging Americans. Based on my

25 years of experience in such a practice, and judging by the

experience of similarly practicing colleagues, I predict that

Newsweek would find a surprisingly hopeful scenario - and one

that is also much less expensive to achieve than all these

high-tech, bio-tech, and genomic solutions that are currently

being proposed and embarked upon.
