Can I tell you how many people say to me how healthy they are because they never get sick. This is not the best predictor of your health. The truth is that periodic immune challenges are essential to not only “exercise” the immune system, but to encourage adaptation to your environment and working with pathways of elimination to move toxins from the cells and out of the body.

There are many times when I am muscle testing patients and the issues and symptoms they are experiencing trace back to a closed head injury earlier in their life. The truth is that this type of injury, whether diagnosed as a concussion or not, can happen from sports, from a fall, from a blow to the head or from any injury such as in a car accident.

Sugar dysregulation, known as Metabolic Syndrome or MetS, isn’t just about Metabolic Syndrome X, Type 2 diabetes and hypoglycemia. It actually includes a large group of insidious complications like gout, COPD, glaucoma, Bipolar Disorder, psoriasis, osteoporosis, GERD, PCOS, sleep apnea and erectile dysfunction. All of these things have been clinically shown (in very recent clinical studies) to trace their origins back to years of sugar dysregulation.

Some studies seem to show that although our lifespan is significantly longer than at any point in history, we actually are being assaulted daily by chemicals, toxins, drugs and stresses that would have killed even the strongest human at any other time. We believe that because we are so advanced, we should be able to live a long, healthy life. But the reality is very different. Studies show that infection and immune dysfunction are the strongest contributory factors to chronic disease and debilitation.
