Happy New Year! I hope your 2017 is off to a wonderful start.
For generations the early weeks of January have been viewed as fertile ground for planting new habits and reversing old ones that no longer serve us. It’s also a good time to think about ways to improve our health.
When it comes to health, this is the “new norm”.
The New Norm:
- 68.8% Overweight (BMI 25-30)
- 40% American Women Obese (BMI>30)
- 50% Americans over 80 Alzheimer Disease
- 1 out 2 people will face diagnosis of cancer in their life time
- 1/68 Children in America Autism (1/48 in NJ)
- 1/8 American women breast cancer
- About 85.6 million Americans are living with some form of cardiovascular disease or the after-effects of stroke.
- About 100 million Americans are pre-diabetic or 29 million diabetic
- 50 million Americans have autoimmune diseases
Our bodies have become overloaded with toxins from the pollutants in our food, water, and air. These toxins are stored in the fat in our bodies and liver. As a result, our bodies are being bombarded with metabolic diseases, degenerative diseases, immune related diseases, mental illness, and cancer. Young people in their 20s and 30s are piling on fat.
According to the New England Journal of Medicine 2003 – People born after 1985 will be the first generation with shorter life expectancy than their parents. It is predicted by 2030, half of the population will have one or more chronic conditions.
Today more and more males have lower levels of testosterone. It has been found that their testosterone is being converted to estrogen and many, many males develop type II diabetes and obesity because of it.
Detoxing our bodies is the first step to better health and longevity.
Earlier this year Bob and I started working with a physician, Dr. Shanhong Lu, from Mount Shasta, California. Dr. Lu helps people detox their bodies, lose weight, and generally feel better. She has treated thousands of patients over the last 10 years and at the end of 6 months to a year has seen 95% of her patients have life changing results.
You may learn more about Dr. Lu at her website:
Dr. Lu has several YouTube videos on health that are very educational. Here are two webinars for you to watch. I love the case studies and photos that show the before and after photos. It is quite remarkable. (You will need to enter your name and email address to have access to the webinars.)
Neuro-Endocrine Immune Modulation
Dr. Lu does free phone consultations if you or anyone in your family has any issues that you would like her to address. She’s really good at providing a protocol for each patient to follow. Contact me if you are interested and I can set it up.
