I'm indebted to Penny who shared a link leading me to this very important information. Dr. Richard Bartlett is a medical doctor in Texas who is having remarkable success helping his patients with COVID-19. Normally, half of the people diagnosed with coronavirus have no symptoms. The other 50% have symptoms but only 20% become seriously ill and require treatment. Early medical treatment approaches prescribed pain relief for headache and fever. Patients were sent home to self-monitor the situation until things got better or more severe. Those who came back with severe cases were more at risk of dying. Dr. Bartlett discovered that if he could intervene early with more preventive treatment, his patients never developed severe cases. Because his treatment was so successful, he sent the procedure up the chain to medical authorities, Senator Ted Cruz and other politicians so he could get the word out. 

Dr. Marc Seigel recently clarified what was being widely reported by the media concerning alarming increases in COVID-19 cases (40,000 in one day!). The media reported troubling news that the coronavirus was spreading throughout the southern and western parts of the United States. Florida, Texas, California, Arizona, and Utah were experiencing frightening spikes in the number of cases being reported. State leaders were concerned and began curtailing reopening plans. Local governments began threatening to mandate masks and social distancing as Dr. Fauci estimated an epidemic of 100,000 new cases a day could occur. However, Dr. Seigel stated that what was not being widely reported was the way these numbers were being counted. It was dishonest and it was being politicized.

​The vaccine injury court was established within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. This is where parents go for compensation when their child is injured by a vaccine. You actually sue the federal government and fight against a Department of Justice (DOJ) lawyer. Due process does not exist in this court. There is no jury. It is not a court of law. It is an administrative proceeding (like an IRS audit). There is only a court-appointed "special master" who is a government attorney that hears your grievance and decides if you have grounds to be compensated. Since 1989, these special masters have awarded nearly $4 billion to vaccine injured children and adults. 1200 claims have been for death and 18,000 for injury. The DTP vaccine is the most common vaccine filed against followed by MMR. Only 34% of claims are granted some type of compensation. In 2017, $282 million was awarded.

​Eight of the 27 studies on the Autism Science Foundation (ASF) website and cited by spokespeople as "proof" that vaccines don't cause autism are led by or coauthored by an embezzler who is a "Most Wanted" fugitive or a CDC whistle-blower who testified his colleagues at the CDC committed fraud. Paul Thorsen is a researcher from Denmark who coauthored four of these eight studies. He stole $1 million in grant money from the CDC. In 2011, he was indicted "on 22 counts of wire fraud and money laundering." He bought a house, cars, and a motorcycle with the funds he was to use to study vaccines and autism but his work is still published.

​If you look to supplement with magnesium, it is nearly impossible to decipher all the combinations and sources. Names like magnesium oxide, carbonate, citrate, malate, chloride, glycinate, sulfate, taurate, gluconate, phosphate, glutamate, l-threonate, etc., are a few of the types of magnesium you will face at the store.

We have received several questions on magnesium. People want to know how to tell if you are low. I will discuss problems related to magnesium testing this week and offer guidance on supplementation next week via a blog article and podcast. ​

​Laboratory test results are compared with the average values of the general population. We are increasingly sick as a population, so those unhealthy population numbers skew what is considered a "good lab result." They are not indicative of values for optimal health. In addition, errors can occur in processing lab results. Since it is easy to experiment with magnesium levels, it is safe to give it a try. Generally people are lacking magnesium in their bodies, so by adding it, benefits can be seen right away. When the body has enough magnesium, any excess will get eliminated via a laxative effect (loose stools or diarrhea). 

​Dr. Paul Offit (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia) and Dr. Peter Hotez (Baylor University) are two of the loudest proponents of vaccinations. And by coincidence, they both just happen to be patent holders for vaccines that built their careers in the pharmaceutical industry. They love to talk about the 27 studies that prove vaccines don't cause autism. The trouble is that, when you actually read those studies, it turns out that only one vaccine and one ingredient was ever studied. The studies are cited on the Autism Science Foundation (ASF), a reputable sounding, science-oriented organization where Dr. Offitt just happens to sit on the board.

The coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has certainly impacted all of our lives. It is all over the news. Recommendations on what to do seem to fluctuate weekly. The mainstream media has fanned a growing fear that has engulfed our country and the world. It has taken time for scientists and doctors to investigate, experience, collect data, and develop a track record for this virus. But there are now enough solid facts related to the coronavirus to see it plainly for what it is. Since much of the media is not providing this information to the general public, I will share with you ten observations I have gleaned from trusted sources.   

Dr. Russell Blaylock is a renown neurosurgeon and author of several books and research papers. He recently published an article in Technocracy News & Trends highlighting what the science says about wearing a facial mask. This is especially important information during a pandemic like the one we are experiencing with COVID-19.  Dr. Blaylock concludes that face masks do not protect healthy people from getting sick. He observes that wearing a mask can actually aggravate and cause serious health problems. Those who choose to wear a mask are probably not aware of these significant concerns. Many businesses are requiring their employees and even customers to wear masks. In some areas, local government has mandated that anyone who comes outside of their home must wear a mask.  It is not only an affront to personal liberty, but there is no science to validate this draconian measure.

​An enlarged prostate is a common and annoying problem affecting men as they age. It is officially called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and will affect the vast majority of all men. 85% of men 85 years or older will suffer with it. BPH causes frequent urination (increased urgency and decreased force and flow) and can interrupt sleep at night. Also, it can lead to erectile dysfunction and urinary tract infections.
