If you or someone you know has Cancer, HIV, Hepatitis, Chronic Fatigue or Multiple Sclerosis please see this website about Low Dose Naltrexone. I have recommended LDN therapy with my patients and I, as well as the patients, have been extremly impressed with the results. Now please understand that this medication is used as part of a complete protocol and not as a stand-alone treatment in my practice. Anything that can be done to help stimulate the immune system in my opinion is definitely worth a deeper look.  

Naltrexone itself was approved by the FDA in 1984 in a 50mg dose for the purpose of helping heroin or opium addicts, by blocking the effect of such drugs. By blocking opioid receptors, naltrexone also blocks the reception of the opioid hormones that our brain and adrenal glands produce: beta-endorphin and metenkephalin. Many body tissues have receptors for these endorphins and enkephalins, including virtually every cell of the body’s immune system.

In 1985, Bernard Bihari, MD, a physician with a clinical practice in New York City, discovered the effects of a much smaller dose of naltrexone (approximately 3mg once a day) on the body’s immune system. He found that this low dose, taken at bedtime, was able to enhance a patient’s response to infection by HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. [Note: Subsequently, the optimal adult dosage of LDN has been found to be 4.5mg.]

In the mid-1990′s, Dr. Bihari found that patients in his practice with cancer (such as lymphoma or pancreatic cancer) could benefit, in some cases dramatically, from LDN. In addition, people who had an autoimmune disease (such as lupus) often showed prompt control of disease activity while taking LDN.

ASEA is quite literally, stabilized, reactive molecules in a bottle. These molecules are suspended in a saline solution that matches the natural pH of the human body, and they work at the deepest cellular level…specifically, in the mitochondria. To the layman, this product needs a bit of explanation which is covered in detail by a short, animated video on my website, www.askdrskip.teamasea.com. This video very simply details specifically how ASEA affects our cellular health, while also increasing glutathione, SOD and Catalase levels by 500%. Testing by the FDA has shown absolutely zero toxicity in ASEA.

Recently, ASEA Corporation flew me, to their headquarters to meet the founders, CEO’s and the key scientist behind ASEA, Dr. Gary Samuelson – I was more than impressed, to say the least; not only with the science behind it, called Redox Signaling, but also with the caliber and vision of those directly involved with its creation. I came away with a high level of excitement and anticipation at just what this product could mean to the world.

Just a few weeks ago, ASEA received its Athletic Drug Testing Certification and it has been approved for use by all high-level competitive, endurance athletes, including Olympic Athletes. Incredibly, controlled testing by Dr. Eric Heiden and his team showed that ASEA significantly increased the Ventilatory Threshold by an average of 12% in only two weeks. Typically, a full year of intense training will show an increase of only 2%-5%. There is a plethora of printed research on all of this, and I would be more than happy to forward it to you if you like.

Additionally, ASEA has been clinically shown to improve adrenal fatigue, skin issues, and immune system disorders; not to mention bacterial, fungal and viral loads.

ASEA is considered a one of the most important breakthroughs of our time, primarily because the signaling molecules that were once thought impossible to stabilize…are now stabilized. The 16 molecules that are in ASEA are found in virtually the same concentration inside the cells in your immune system. The generalized explanation is that this product will reboot your cellular/immune system.

I encourage any and all questions you may have about this incredible product. I hope that you will take a few moments to visit my website to watch the video and read more about it. There is also a new u-tube link where you can hear the founders of ASEA tell their story. Please visit this link at: www.YouTube.com/ASEAvideo.

I don’t advocate being quite this close and personal with members of the swine family (see pic of kid kissing the piggy).  At this point we do not need to be any more worried about this than the regular flu.  I recommend to my patients, clients, friends…anyone who will listen to me rant – that you should not consume pork and pork based products.

Their meat is very similar to human flesh and contains some bacteria that isn’t really good for people.  I say this from a wellness standpoint because I understand that people have eaten pork for their entire lives and live to a ripe old age.  There are just so many things bombarding our systems that we need to reduce the toxic load in as many areas that we can.

By reducing this toxic load we are thus reducing our risks for bacterial, viral and fungal infections as well as other diseases and cancers.  Pork is just an unclean meat.  That is one of the reasons why folks of the Jewish faith do not consume pork.   

What we need to focus on is keeping our immune system functioning at top capacity.

Drink lots of optimized (hydromag) water each day
Take a good quality, absorb-able vitamin c (lypospheric vitamin c)
Pau d’ Arco is good for an immune boost
Colloidal Silver to keep the overall bacterial, viral, fungal load to a minimum
A high quality multivitamin/mineral – Beyond Chelation Improved
Vitamin D and Sunlight (15 minutes with as much exposed skin as possible 4-5 times per week)
Liver/Kidney Cleanse – maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of our detoxifying organs

Please don’t mistake or misquote me here…I am not saying that if you do these things you will not get the flu or even get sick.  It’s really okay to get sick.  It shows that your immune system is doing its job.  Being sick isn’t fun, but what doesn’t kill us make us stronger.  Its like the gym for your immune system.  When you do get sick the worst thing to do is start taking unnecessary antibiotics.  There are so many cases that can be treated just as easily (in most cases easier and more effective) that using antibiotics.  I know we don’t have time to be sick, but you are doing far worse by your body and potentially increasing the risk of stronger, hard to kill and resistant to antibiotic bacterial “sugerbug” by taking antibiotics when you don’t actually need them.

In most cases it really is a transient virus running its course.  Even if there is some bacterial implication I would still recommend colloidal silver because that takes care of both – virus and bacteria.  If you think you may have the flu or want additional information on implementing a protocol for wellness or to assist your body in working through an illness don’t hesitate to AskDrSkip.

There are no toxicity reports in any of the clinical studies, nor have there been any side effects reported, except for an occasional case of cramps during the process where the stones are purging. If this is something you experience, the dosage can be cut in half.

It is safe for pregnant woman to take.

Please do not undertake a liver cleanse without some help from a health care practitioner.  Cleaning the liver is a lengthy process and should be followed through until completion once you begin.  It can be several months, if not years on and off of cleaning to gain optimal results.  Remember it takes years to build up a clogged, unhealthy liver.  It will take time to regain your health.  Be patient.  One thing at a time!  Health and wellness are right around the corner.  Keep up the good work.

I cannot think of a situation in which Pau d’arco doesn’t comes to mind. This is an amazing bark from a tree with widespread healing properties. It is derived from the inner bark of the Tabebuia Avellanedae or Tabebuia Impetiginosa (Taheebo) tree grown in South America. It is also known by other names such as Lapacho. Pau d’Arco Tea has been used for many centuries by the Indio tribes of South America. The ancient Incas and Aztecs were probably the first to be familiar with the herb’s healing capabilities.

It is an ozoniferous plant, and grows only in the mountains of the Andes. Ozone air is fresh, pure, and free from pollution, smog, exhaust, smoke and pesticides. Researchers have discovered that the Pau D’Arco tree is the only type of vegetation known that will not permit the development of fungus. Most plant life, when exposed to weather and excess moisture, will become covered with spores which lead to fungus formation. Fungus and candida are something that just about everyone, to some extent, is dealing with and taking this wonderful herb will assist in regaining and/or maintaining health!

This herb has been shown useful for a variety of conditions ranging from:

Other actions that have documented by using Pau d’Arco have shown that it is a hepatotonic – which means it tones, balances and strengthens the liver. It is also an immunostimulant, its benefits will also strengthen the body’s immune system, which assists heavily in preventing liver disease. Claims have also been made that it assists in removing poisons from the liver tissue, as well as promoting healthy liver function. From a Naturopathic perspective this is a fundamental organ that must be healthy to maintain a body that is in homeostasis. Having a clean and healthy liver means many things – healthy skin, nails, stomach and blood.

If you search the web you will find an overwhelming amount of information available on this miraculous herb. I like this product so much because it is loaded with amazing properties and minerals. It can be used to virtually sustain life because it is practically a food. We are not using this to forcibly to make some “change” within the body – we are gently helping the body to return to its natural healthy state of homeostasis.

When selecting a brand to use for medicinal purposes, please be extremely selective as to which product you choose. I have used several brands and the one that I use at home and recommend exclusively is from Blessed Herbs – is it available in the on-line store and in our clinic. I chose this company for their high quality control and stringent selectivity of the herbs and the processing.

Pau d’Arco is the most useful when it has been made into a tincture. That just means that after the herb has been harvested it has been soaked in an alcohol. Soaking it in the alcohol extract the most potent ingredients and helps it to be assimilated and utilized by the body most effectively. The benefits of this amazing plant are endless…

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask! Good luck!

Rupronol is truly one of the most amazing products that I have ever come across. A friend of mine, who works for Healthwalk, that I met in India on a trip with Humanity in Unity and Vitamin Angels showed me enough information in a clinical sense to warrant further investigation of this product.

It is used commonly for all types of viral infections, fungus, yeast, etc. with great results. One of the most important factors here to remember that if one is to embark on a process of cleansing the system – it takes persistence and a commitment. This product in an aggressive manner has to be taken every 2 waking hours for up to 3 months. Then a break is taken and the protocol is reassessed.

The other thing that I need to strongly recommend here is that if you make the commitment to go through the cleansing process with this product that you do not stop. It is not uncommon for things to get worse before they get better. But that adage holds true. I have seen it in clinical practice time and time again.

Also, it is important to note here as well… you can’t just take this product and not do the other things to improve your health. …You know what I am talking about here. Nutrition, diet and exercise. Sugar and especially refined sugar intake/consumption must be reduced (if not totally eliminated). This includes breads and pastas! As I am sure you already know… also eliminate anything processed (this is just about always something that you have to take out of a wrapper).

As I am sure many of you that know me are already aware that my medical philosophy revolves around the paradigm that yeast, candida and viruses are the main issues that we need to resolve. That being said it can’t be the only way we go about trying to correct the imbalance. The other holistic methods must be employed.

If you have any questions about implementation of this product into your protocol please contact me for a consultation. Please also re-read any articles on cancer especially in regards to the issue of whether or not cancer is a fungus!

Be Well!
