Forgotten Research in Medicine From the most prestigious medical and nutritional journals comes all sorts of important clinical research that just never made it to the family doctor's office.

Case Histories, References, and Your Questions Also Available: Specific Clinical Subjects for Lectures, Classes and Workshops Natural Healing Protocols Over time, I’ve learned a variety of ways to help people get well and stay well. By necessity, I also now know how to communicate that knowledge to those interested. Both skills are the product of many other people's dedication and experience. I've put my own spin on natural therapeutics, collecting what I've personally seen to work and then delivering it to you with as much zing as I can muster. To quote from Benny Goodman and the jazz age: "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing." In my college lectures on Clinical Nutrition, there is necessarily an emphasis on covering each nutrient in some detail and then giving different examples of how that nutrient is used in practice. In NATURAL HEALING PROTOCOLS, I go about it the opposite way: we look at an illness and then learn what we need to effectively treat it. This includes many practical and some non-nutritional techniques. Suggestions from students and field practitioners have prodded me to use this problem-based approach. My goal is to present information so plainly that you will be able to help more people immediately. I hope it is helpful to you.
