These pathways are present in every system throughout the body and require balanced attention. In keeping with the principles of BioEnergetic Medicine, the remedies nourish and support these systems without punishing them with overstimulation or imbalancing factors, which, ultimately, is counterproductive. This approach has been carefully and respectfully designed to provide the necessary natural (organic where available), synergistic factors in proper energetic and biochemical ratios, to ensure assistance towards yielding a deep and lasting result. They are not to be confused with replacement therapy nutraceuticals that may seem to help for the moment, until the patient stops taking them or the condition is driven deeper.

  • Marketing Research on Dietary Supplements for Periodontitis in Patient Diabetes
    Original Study MARKETING RESEARCH ON DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS FOR PERIODONTITIS IN PATIENT DIABETES Galyna Biloklytska, Svitlana Viala, Alina Koval* National Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education named after P. L. Shupyk, Kyiv, Ukraine. ABSTRACT The vast majority of periodontal diseases are inflammatory and can develop under the influence of both local causes and the combined action of common (endogenous) and local factors against the background of changes in the reactivity of the body. In the pathogenesis of the development of periodontal diseases in patients with diabetes, the main role is given to angiopathies. Since periodontitis is characterized by various vascular disorders, which are largely similar to diabetic angiopathy, it is not easy to prove the presence of the latter with periodontitis. So some authors argue this, while, others deny it. The starting point of diabetic microangiopathies is a violation of carbohydrate metabolism, as well as a violation of glycosamine metabolism, which determines the functional and structural integrity of the vascular basement membrane. Key words: producing countries, periodontitis, diabetes mellitus, dietary supplements, medicines, dentistry. Introduction the treatment and prevention of such pathology, as periodontitis in patients with diabetes. Nowadays, the problem of treatment and rehabilitation of patients with periodontitis is quite actual, as there is an The search for modern drugs and perspective combinations increase in morbidity among people of working age, of microelements for treatment, both internally and locally, increasing demands on appearance as a factor that plays an using applications on periodontal tissues in patients with important role in professional and personal success in various types of diabetes, involves marketing analysis of society.

  • Treating Thyroid Disease: a Natural Approach to Healing Hashimoto's
    Treating Thyroid Disease: A Natural Approach to Healing Hashimoto’s Melissa Lea-Foster Rietz, FNP-BC, BC-ADM, RYT-200 Presbyterian Medical Services Farmington, NM [email protected] Professional Disclosures I have no personal or professional affiliation with any of the resources listed in this presentation, and will receive no monetary gain or professional advancement from this lecture. Talk Objectives • Define hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s. • Discuss various tests used to identify thyroid disease and when to treat based on patient symptoms • Discuss potential causes and identify environmental factors that contribute to disease • Describe how the gut (food sensitivities) and the adrenals (chronic stress) are connected to Hashimoto’s and how we as practitioners can work to educate patients on prevention before the need for treatment • How the use of adaptogens can enhance the treatment of Hashimoto’s and identify herbs that are showing promise in the research. • How to use food, exercise, and relaxation to improve patient outcomes. Named for Hakuro Hashimoto, a physician working in Europe in the early 1900’s. Hashimoto’s was the first autoimmune disease to be recognized in the scientific literature. It is estimated that one in five people suffer from an autoimmune disease and the numbers continue to rise. Women are more likely than men to develop an autoimmune disease, and it is believed that 75% of individuals with an autoimmune disease are female. Thyroid autoimmune disease is the most common form, and affects 7-8% of the population in the United States. Case Study Ms. R is a 30-year-old female, mother of three, who states that after the birth of her last child two years ago she has felt the following: • Loss of energy • Difficulty losing weight despite habitual eating pattern • Hair loss • Irregular menses • Joints that ache throughout the day • A general sense of sadness • Cold Intolerance • Joint and Muscle Pain • Constipation • Irregular menstruation • Slowed Heart Rate What tests would you run on Ms.

    MAGNESIUM AND EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROME PART ONE: *WHY* PERSONS WITH EDS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MAGNESIUM ©2013 Heidi Collins, MD Everybody should know about magnesium. It’s just that important. “Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis.” – From Magnesium Fact Sheet from the National Institutes of Health (PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ): http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Magnesium-HealthProfessional/ (Notice also the links provided at the bottom of the Fact Sheet to many of the 62 references.) What are some of the symptoms of magnesium deficiency? “Magnesium deficiency can affect virtually every organ system of the body. With regard to skeletal muscle, one may experience twitches, cramps, muscle tension, muscle soreness, including back aches, neck pain, tension headaches and jaw joint (or TMJ) dysfunction. Also, one may experience chest tightness or a peculiar sensation that he can't take a deep breath. Sometimes a person may sigh a lot. … Symptoms involving impaired contraction of smooth muscles include constipation; urinary spasms; menstrual cramps; difficulty swallowing or a lump in the throat-especially provoked by eating sugar; photophobia, especially difficulty adjusting to oncoming bright headlights in the absence of eye disease; and loud noise sensitivity from stapedius muscle tension in the ear. … The central nervous system is markedly affected. Symptoms include insomnia, anxiety, hyperactivity and restlessness with constant movement, panic attacks, agoraphobia, and premenstrual irritability.

  • Mg-K Aspartate Providing Bioavailable Magnesium and Potassium
    PRODUCT DATA DOUGLAS LABORATORIES® 07/2014 1 Mg-K Aspartate Providing bioavailable magnesium and potassium DESCRIPTION Mg-K Aspartate tablets, as provided by Douglas Laboratories®, deliver 100 mg of elemental magnesium and 99 mg of elemental potassium in their bioavailable aspartate forms. FUNCTIONS Magnesium and potassium are two minerals with fundamentally important physiological functions in the body. However, typical diets in the U.S. and other industrialized countries often provide less than adequate amounts of magnesium and potassium. Supplementation with bioavailable aspartate salts of these two minerals can help bridge the gap between dietary intake and optimal requirement. Magnesium plays an essential role in a wide range of fundamental cellular reactions. More than 300 enzymes require magnesium as a cofactor. Complexed with ATP, the main carrier of metabolic energy in the body, magnesium is essential for all biosynthetic processes: glycolysis, formation of c-AMP, energy-dependent membrane transport, transmission of genetic code for protein synthesis, and muscle function. Magnesium is involved in maintaining normal heart function and blood pressure. The aspartate salt used in Mg-K Aspartate is highly absorbed and well tolerated Potassium is the principal intracellular cation. Potassium is of great physiological importance, contributing to the transmission of nerve impulses, the control of skeletal muscle contractility, and to the maintenance of normal blood pressure. Potassium is generally well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, and the kidneys regulate total body potassium by controlling urinary potassium excretion. Aspartic Acid is a natural amino acid which occurs widely as a constituent of food proteins. In the body, aspartic acid is involved in energy production as an intermediate in the Krebs cycle.
