From Terry: This week I'm very pleased to have Decker Weiss, NMD, FASA, here to share his thoughts on the natural treatment of heart disease. Dr. Weiss is a consulting physician at the Arizona Heart Hospital, and maintains a busy practice in Scottsdale, Arizona. We are very fortunate to have him here today to discuss the role of natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory medications in the treatment and prevention of heart disease. Thank you so much, Dr. Weiss, for this very informative article.

In over 13 years of clinical practice as a naturopathic cardiologist, treating thousands of people, I have had zero patients who developed congestive heart failure. I have had one patient experience a stroke, and two patients experience a heart attack. These statistics are unheard of for conventional cardiologists. How have my patients achieved such spectacular results? It is not through the regular use of synthetic drugs—it is through a judicious blending of mainstream and natural medicine practices.   Click to Continue...

Q.  “I have recently purchased a Curcumin 95% supplement. What is your opinion on this formula?”  Suzanne H, Port Townsend, WA

A. Dear Suzanne, Curcumin 95%, when tested in the laboratory, has shown extremely high potential for a number of health concerns. However, in the body there are many steps for entering the cellular level, starting with digestion, absorption, assimilation and penetration. This is not an easy task. Curcumin 95% has shown to be poorly absorbed systemically and sometimes cannot be found in the bloodstream after it has been orally ingested. Therefore, it is difficult to do human studies. This has been a roadblock to fulfilling curcumin's promise. The results of the lab test have encouraged scientists to seek a manner in which to improve the absorption of curcumin. I believe you would be better off with your next purchase to select a curcumin product that has been proven to be absorbed and to be effective in published clinical trials. There are different ways to increase absorption, and the best results (up to 10 times better absorption) is from curcumin with turmeric essential oils and phospholipids. I also believe that combining curcumin with other anti-inflammatory and pain relieving ingredients will give you better results for your health. That is why I recommend curucmin with boswellia, standardized for AKBA, the most effective form of the boswellic acids. DLPA is an amino acid that sustains the activity of natural, feel good hormones in the body (endorphins and enkephalins), and nattokinase provides increased support of circulatory function. In my experience, using a blend of ingredients such as this will give you a much stronger product and better results than just standard 95% curcumin.

Terry's healthy comment of the week:

Have you seen all the recent news reports warning people to avoid 30 different herbs if they're taking certain medications like warfarin, a blood thinner? (Also sold under brand names of Coumadin and others...) It's funny how the media always says "Stop taking the herbs!" when they should really be saying, "Stop taking the rat poison drugs!" Warfarin, as many of you already know, is indeed made out of rat poison. It's not an urban legend, it's a chemical fact. It works to kill rats by thinning their blood until they die from internal bleeding -- the same result experienced by some patients who overdose on the drug. Interestingly, the media never tells people to stop swallowing rat poison... they'd rather scare you into avoiding herbs.

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria:

Focus on the Unseen

Every obstacle in your life is subject to change. It doesn’t matter what you may be facing, there is an answer in the unseen. The unseen is the spiritual realm where the promises of God exist. Your faith brings those unseen things into this natural realm. When you are fixed on something, you can’t be moved. There’s a determination that fuels your focus. When you fix your eyes on the unseen—the promises of God—your faith will not be moved by your circumstances and you’ll eventually see those promises come to pass.

Make the decision today to fix your eyes and mind on the promises of God. Meditate on His promises until they become more real to you than the air you breath. Declare that His promises will come to pass in your life. Declare that you have His favor. Declare that you are more than a conqueror. Don’t allow fear and doubt to change what you are speaking over your life. As you continue to fix your spiritual eyes on the unseen promises of God, you will see those things come to pass in the natural and you will move forward into the abundant life the Lord has for you!

A Prayer for Today

Father God, today I choose to fix my eyes on you. I choose to fix my mind and heart on your promises, no matter what it looks like in this natural world. I know that Your Word is true and that your promises will be fulfilled in my life. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Father in heaven, thank You for every one of Your precious promises. I choose to meditate on Your Word today which brings life to my soul. Fill me with Your peace as I stand in faith until I see the victory You have in store for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
