These were the questions asked in this episode of #AskDrBob. Please click the blue box to view Dr. Bob’s answers. If you have general health questions, please email us at askdrbob@druglessdoctor.com, and we will present it in an upcoming episode.
My question is, how does one overcome completely Morgellons Disease or skin parasites? Many foods just feed and make them active, so this is a hard thing, but not to hard for the Lord…..please help.
We use Agrisept-L and oregano in our practice as the foundation. I would need to look at your numbers (health) and begin a strategy to help clean your liver, since this is the organ that helps to “clean up” your system. (Thyroid, WBC)
With Hashimotto Thyroiditis is it ok to take extra iodine, if yes, which product, thank you? Right now I’m on Nature-Throid 85 mg.
I follow the numbers (TSH, T3, and T4). We just started having our female practice members with thyroid concerns apply liquid iodine to their breast tissue and we are starting to see thyroid issues positively responding to this scenario.
Can chiropractic treatment and healthy eating cure lupus? 15yr old friend diagnosed yesterday w lupus!
Lupus usually means adrenal fatigue (no sugar!). It is also a hormonal issue because of the age of your friend (compromised liver).
After triple heart bypass trying to stay away from salt. Have used for a very long time sea salt. Would sea salt and/or celtic salt be okay?
We use Celtic Sea Salt (minerals) and I have actually found that lack of minerals can actually lead to heart problems.
I see you have quite a number of articles on hypothyroidism. My doctor just did blood tests and now wants me to go on Synthroid. Sorry I do not have the readings. I definitely don’t want to go on pharmaceuticals so what can I take and eat; and how long before I can expect results to improve.
First, I do not have a license to go on or off medication, but we follow your numbers (FMH).
You suggest having ABC’s every day, however, I have an A1C of 6.7 and when I juice carrot or beets my sugar goes way up. Should I do this or not?
I do not promote juicing, I’d rather have you eat them. The best way to lower the A1C is to exercise and focus on greens.
Perhaps Doctor Bob could answer what natural treatments would generally be best practice for someone that has a pituitary adenoma and maybe what deficiencies I should ask my doctor to look out for. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Your pituitary gland needs vitamin B6 and possibly vitamin E, manganese, or selenium. I would also check for parasites.
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)
Green vegetables and protein would be best.
What could cause stiff, painful, joints and tendons, in the hands especially, of someone over 55 – that gets relief from compression gloves and prescription Neurontin rheumatoid arthritis medicine? Assuming they do not use much nightshade, sugar or dairy, and are avoiding wheat. They think it’s neuropathy with rheumatism but there has been diabetes just 2 years.
I would recommend an oximeter reading, which should be 95 or greater. We also use phosphorous with body stiffness.
