– How would you recommend dealing with tennis elbow?

I would consider adding vitamin-B6. We have a profile test (contact us) available to help determine your liver enzymes. If they are low, your body needs vitamin-B6. I would also recommend limiting your omega-6 oils.

– Can Calcium-D-Glucarate get rid of excess testosterone out of the body?

CDG helps to support liver function. Per your thyroid, if you have low T4, it is a body signal you need iodine. I would recommend a urine-iodine loading test to determine how much iodine your body needs. (More info in video).

– My son-in-law has had something going on with his eyes for a few days. Sensitive to light, burning and he has gotten little blisters in the crease, on the top of eyelids. Any thoughts or suggestions?

We use Agrisept-L to help with certain viruses. I would consider adding two drops into a sterilized spritz bottle with water and gently spritz on the eyes (with clean hands, etc). I would also consider a CBC w/ a differential (contact us). In this case we would look to see if it was a high lymph. Lastly, L-Lysine is a product every day to help prevent cold sores/viruses.

– And if you prep the salads for the week, do they stay fresh? Any tips for that? Thanks!!

I only use arugula, spinach, and romaine lettuce. I have found spring mixes only last one day.

– Hi, Just wondered what your thoughts are on Temporal Arteritis, I have been diagnosed with this, which is treated with steroids. I would like your opinion.

Your adrenal glands might be weak. I would recommend reading the book, “Adrenal Fatigue” by James Wilson, limiting all your sugar and necessary stress. I would also consider having someone take your blood pressure sitting and then standing. If it drops, it is a body signal to me you have adrenal exhaustion.
