In this week’s recap, I have a new “What Can I Do For …” that affects more and more people each year. I hope you take out the time to watch it and make the necessary changes, because I know it will make a difference in your life. This fall, I look forward to sharing new videos and strategies to help you live a drugless life. Plus, I want to hear from you. Let us know what questions you have and how we can help you achieve optimal health. You can email those suggestions to askdrbob@druglessdoctor.com.

I want you to poop everyday (even a few times)! I find that many individuals are constipated – and there is natural and drugless relief. Find out what they are in this week’s “What Can I Do For … ” and visit here and here for additional information.

Some #HealthyMarriage inspiration for you tomorrow!

Reading labels matter & this includes even salad dressings. You may have heard me share about one practice member who was having emotional distress and upon looking at their diet sheet, the dressing they used had safflower oil as their main ingredient, which can be known to cause pain. After removing this dressing, and substituting with olive oil and lemon, alongside the omega-3 oils their body needed, they saw improvement. Dressings also have ingredients that include more SMH’s like canola & soybean oil, plus sugar. Keep it simple with organic olive oil and apple cider vinegar.

Lastly, a family vacation flashback, which would be my first and last time white water rafting. Where did you go this summer?

Being married is the most challenging, life-stretching, and in my case, rewarding experience I could have asked for in my 63 years on this planet. However, I know that any marriage takes work 24/7/365. What that action looks like is different in any relationship – with mine, it has been learning to navigate running multiple businesses with Debbie, raising a family, “empty nesting,” and starting fresh in Naples (while still actively running our Westlake practice with Dr. A & Dr. C).

As a chiropractor and natural health doctor, I love to share my experiences through nutritional books, and ten years ago, Debbie and I released “Dr. Bob’s Guide to Sex & Romance.” At the time, we knew we were taking a risk, and the truth of the matter is, even though we knew there was valuable information in the book, the chance of seeing someone having the courage to take it to the beach and read it was quite slim. Last year, my son encouraged me to rethink the title, and release a brand new relationship-based book on marriage, since many of his friends were starting their lives as married couples and needed sound wisdom. So, Debbie and I put the last ten years to paper once more, and voila, “Dr. Bob’s Guide to a Healthy Marriage.”

There are many relationship and marriage books available that are helping people, but the approach Debbie and I are presenting, and I have witnessed in the past forty years, is an in-depth look at how the foods you eat affect your body, which in turn affects your emotions, that can change your relationships, including marriage.

You now may be asking, “So, Dr. Bob, what is one thing I can do after reading this article to help my marriage?” The first thing I tell anyone is to begin your day asking your spouse how you can make their day more comfortable, in other words, take the initiative to serve. This may cause some mind-shift moments, but that’s what Debbie and I want you to do; make the pivot towards the healthy marriage you’ve always wanted. I promise, you’ll be glad you did!

#AskDrBob – November 3, 2017

These were the questions asked in this episode of #AskDrBob. Please click the blue box to view Dr. Bob’s answers. If you have any general health questions, please email us, askdrbob@druglessdoctor.com, and we will present it in an upcoming episode. Thank you!

In regards to hot flashes; so what should a woman take if she has too much copper? Do they have the copper kits at a regular health food store?

When someone has too much copper, they may not have enough zinc. Hot flashes are commonly caused by a need for iodine. Other symptoms can include adrenal fatigue, oil deficiency, stress, and a blood sugar imbalance. We help our practice members with an Aqueous Zinc Taste Test, Hair Analysis, and “Dr. Bob’s Drugless Guide to Balancing Female Hormones.”  

How do we take iodine and is it safe for children?

We always follow the numbers (TSH, T3, T4, & TPO) in regard to iodine. A T4 and a urine-iodine test would be the best. More info in video.

I do not like beets at all! What does Dr Bob suggest instead?

We utilize Beta-Plus, which is a source of beets, but I would continue to also eat your apples and carrots.

I have costalitis. I take manganese and turmeric, is there anything else you might recommend?

I am not sure, but did you mean “costrochondritis”? If it is inflammation, I would stop eating sugar, gluten, and dairy. Intenzyme-Forte can help.

What is the best way to strengthen abdominal muscles?  

Bent leg sit ups, core work, and more. I would also do a YouTube search for low impact ab workouts.

You can schedule a personalized health consultation with Dr. Bob no matter where you are in the world right here.

What about local raw honey and building up tolerances, pollen etc.

There is a big difference between honey and pollen. Honey is 95% sugar and I would suggest you would avoid eating it (and also peanut butter and dairy). If you do those, you will remove any allergy/sinus issues.

I’m a 21 yr old female. I do have hyperthyroidism. I exercise, but my body doesn’t produce any sweat as a response to the heat generated in my body. I understand that hyperthyroidism patients shouldn’t exercise much because we already face increased metabolism and exercising increases it too,  but I go through a lot of stress and so that particular 1 hour at the gym makes me feel good (actually I feel heaven everywhere after a workout😜😜😀😀) as it increases serotonin in my body. I have anxiety. I face difficulties while talking. My body is always hot, heated up. And all these are the symptoms I suffer from. I understand calcium can ease my problem, but are there any other things which might help my problem. Kindly help me if u can. I’d be grateful. Thank you. 😊😊😊.

I would suggest a Blood Chemistry (contact us) to evaluate your minerals. I would like to see the calcium & phosphorus ratio. (Also, I would avoid gluten)

Any tips for treating Achilles tendonitis and clawing toes for a 64 yr old man. Also anything for the severe pain it causes. Many thanks.

We help tendons with calcium, magnesium, and potassium, sometimes with vitamin B6 and omega-3 oils.

Alkaline water, is it safe to drink?  

I personally do not drink nor promote alkaline water. I have found that it modifies digestion.

How often should I take vitamin D3-5. My number is at 40 right now. Thanks,

I would take it every day.

Dear Dr. Bob: Is there any natural/homeopathic type product that can be used in place of Arimidex? I dislike any prescribed medication. I’ve been on it over a year. I’m a cancer survivor.

Yes, we use a product called Chrysin, and also Ca-D Glucarate.

Dear Dr. Bob, what are symptoms for ileocecal valve problems and how can it be treated.

(More info in video)

Any advice for thinning hair?

Have your thyroid checked, and also that you body is receiving adequate oils.

Happy New Year! Is Sunflower Lecithin bad then? A friend is using in place of soy lecithin & I have used in almond milk (as emulsifier). Thank you.

From our experience at our practice, we have had many practice members have inflammation in their bodies from consuming sunflower-based products. To answer your question, I would avoid it, to avoid unnecessary inflammation. I would also consider a Bloodspot Fatty Acid profile to determine the amount of oils and which ones your body needs.

I recently had an emergency complete/total hysterectomy due to a tumor and endometriosis. They took 43 lymph nodes and all were clear. However they advise chemo and radiation should there be further cancer cells. I am against this being done for many reasons. What should I do now? I’ve heard of B-17, Sanicle, and frankincense oil as treatments, what do you recommend? I’m considered to be at stage 2. Thank you

This is a major issue I see. The tumor was probably a benign tumor. I would postpone the chemo and radiation and focus on your estrogen numbers and your liver is functioning optimally. I would suggest a post-menopausal saliva test and an opti-chem (contact).

Dr. Bob, I had a total hysterectomy in 1999 because of endometriosis. I have been on bio-identical hormones for years. I am 57 years old. Should I stay on the hormones? What do you advise women to do after hysterectomies? Thank you.

You might also consider a post-menopausal saliva test. It is essential to build up your adrenal and thyroid.

I’m a long time abuser. I happened by chance saw your contribution to the you version of the bible app where you begin talking about the liver. By some miracle my enzymes count is normal. But i been having some tenderness lately. I did what you suggested to benefit the liver. Castor oil lamb’s wool and heating pad for one hour. Also i started milk thistle and dandelion supplements. I know it’s sin to abuse alcohol. PLEASE help. I’m only 51 and 100 lbs overweight. I don’t want to die from this disease. PLEASE email me.

I would suggest Beta-TCP from Biotics Research, and also liver-healing herbs like dandelion root and milk thistle. I would also consider applying the castor oil pack (product here, information here) once a week to help heal the liver.
