I have a recurrent spot on the bottom of my right foot about the size of a slice of lime in the reflexology area of gallbladder and liver. I keep this under control with castor oil. I had water-borne hepatitis in my 20s-now 65. My health is improving. Do you have a supplement or food ideas for me?

I would like to see what your liver would look like under certain films. You may consider the castor oil pack and/or milk thistle. Also mentioned, my FMH book & chapter 10. More info in video.

I just took the digestion quiz and scored 39 points.  What would you recommend? Would you recommend the Gastrazyme? I do take a probiotic that I like. I’ve taken it for about 3 months now. Staying gluten free helps my digestion but I still have issues that cause concern.  

I would need to do more an assessment before making a comment in regards to your personal health. (More info in video)

Are there any special health concerns for persons over 55 that deliberately lose a lot of weight – around 70lbs – in a 12-month period? (no surgery).

Your body can develop postural, bladder, and other organ changes. (More info in video)

How would you deal with a chronic, dry cough that has been occurring for months? The person has had an infection and been on antibiotics twice during this time also. Off antibiotics now for about a month but cough is worse.

A chronic cough may suggest parasites. (More info in video)
