This document discusses hormone optimization for men through regenerative and integrative medicine approaches. It provides background on the author's qualifications and outlines key concepts in functional and anti-aging medicine like optimizing the body's self-repair mechanisms with hormones, lifestyle changes, and supplements. Specific hormone pathways like thyroid and testosterone are examined, symptoms of deficiencies are defined, and testing and treatment options like bioidentical hormones, gels, injections, and implants are described. The benefits of hormone optimization are stated to include increased energy, mood, mental clarity, fitness and sex drive. Brief patient testimonials endorse the positive effects.
HOW TO SAVE MONEY ON YOUR HEALTHCARE: An Integrative Medicine ApproachLouis Cady, MD
In this webinar, the fourth in a series of five from Dr. Louis Cady and the Cady Wellness Institute, we focus on the actual dollars and cents of health care expenditures, and the societal and PERSONAL costs of poor health maintenance behavior. We examine the essentially passive US medical system, that would rather drug a symptom than fix the underlying problem.
Great attention is paid on not shaming the patient or the doctors as they exist in the current system. Both groups "do not know what they do not know." Confirmation bias is rampant.
This webinar points the way to living a more vital, energetic life, with a minimum of cost, grief, and misery.
Distilling fact from fiction is an important part of my job as an evidence-based health writer. The Low T (low testosterone) story, originally assigned as a feature for an online health foundation, was intended to explore the facts vs. the frenzy of the low T debate. However, it quickly grew into so much more. While preparing for my interview with a key source, I was perplexed that the data did not line up with the conclusions drawn by a major, trusted health journal, nor many of the headlines in mainstream media stories. My analysis was correct and the story took on a whole different direction about egregious headlines, faulty conclusions and the journal's refusal to retract a study. There are four sections in this reporting package:
Low T: Separating Facts from Frenzy (feature story)
The Low T Story: Hunting for the Truth (blog)
Breaking: The Low T Story: Hunting for the Truth, Part 2 (blog)
JAMA Refuses to Retract Paper on Testosterone Risks (blog)
This document provides information about hormone replacement therapy using bioidentical hormones. It discusses the current healthcare crisis related to chronic diseases and their high costs. It then summarizes trends in medicine towards preventative, upstream care focused on lifestyle and restoring health. The document defines different types of hormones and their benefits. It discusses common hormone deficiencies related to menopause and andropause. Finally, it outlines the benefits of various bioidentical hormones like estrogen, progesterone, thyroid, DHEA, melatonin and testosterone in maintaining health and reducing disease risks and symptoms of aging.
In this, the second part of the "Queen of Denial" lecture for Deaconess Women's Hospital, Dr. Cady takes up where Dr. Gabhart left off, reviewing - briefly and succinctly - the following topics: the needless "psychiatric victimization" of women, discrimination against women in terms of optimal levels of hormones (including testosterone), and the dangers of low DHEA, low cortisol, and low thyroid. The emphasis is that there are BIOLOGICAL things that are frequently wrong, and simply looking at the supposedly "psychiatric" or "depressed" symptoms is frequently barking up the wrong tree.
This chapter discusses the health risks of tobacco, caffeine, and drug use for women. It notes that nearly half of long-term smokers will die from tobacco use and over 3 million US women have died prematurely from smoking. Smoking is linked to various cancers and cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Prenatal tobacco exposure can harm fetal development and increase risks of low birth weight, premature birth, and SIDS. The chapter also outlines health risks of caffeine, illegal drugs, and drug use during pregnancy on the fetus.
Optimized Aging with Nutritional & Weight Management TechniquesLouis Cady, MD
In this lecture, presented on August 15, 2014 for the USI Mid-America institute on Aging, Dr. Cady covered the under appreciated physiology of micronutrients and deficiency syndrome, the concept of the "Triage Theory of Aging" from Dr. Bruce Ames, and reviewed the literature on nutritional supplementation. This covered carotenoids, peer-reviewed studies on carotenoids and mortality, peer-reviewed studies on carotenoids and risk of breast cancer, peer review articles on lipid preoccupation, antioxidants, and the chances of survival in the institutionalized elderly, Raman spectroscopy as a marker of antioxidant nutritional deficiency, the explosion of obesity in our population in the US, and optimal antiaging strategies. The "Seven Secrets of Optimizing Body Composition" was reviewed at the end. References are attached.

This document discusses various topics related to sexual health and sexuality. It covers definitions of sexual health, issues with body image and eating disorders, effects of aging and disability on sexuality, and impacts of cancer, drugs/alcohol, and other medical conditions on sexual functioning and well-being. The document provides information on common sexual health problems, screening tests, treatments, and how physical and mental health interact with sexuality.
Prememenustrual dysphoric disorder and post menopausal syndromePavan kulkarni
Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) and Post Menopausal Syndrome are discussed. PMDD is characterized by severe depression, tension and irritability before menstruation. Hormonal fluctuations are believed to play a role through effects on brain chemistry. Diagnosis involves tracking symptoms. SSRIs are effective treatments. Post Menopause brings risks of vasomotor symptoms, urogenital atrophy, osteoporosis and psychological issues due to declining estrogen levels. Hormone replacement therapy can help manage many symptoms. Lifestyle changes and nutritional supplements also provide benefits.
If you’re a 40-something woman, you probably have given hormone replacement therapy (HRT) at least a passing thought. Treatments have evolved over the years and become more effective. https://labelleviemedicalcare.com/estrogen-and-your-health/
Do you know these facts about testosteroneLovina Kapoor
When people hear the word ‘testosterone’ they often first think ‘aggression.’ Indeed, there is a link between the hormone and the behavior in competitive situations like between peers or for a sexual partner. Today we discuss about the Facts about Testosterone
This document discusses premenstrual syndromes including premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). PMDD is a severe form of PMS characterized by more severe emotional symptoms that interfere with daily life. The causes of PMS and PMDD are not fully understood but likely involve interactions between ovarian hormones and neurotransmitters. Diagnosis involves documenting cyclic symptoms related to the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Treatments include lifestyle changes, supplements, medications like SSRIs, and in rare cases surgery.
This document discusses chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), which are conditions with overlapping symptoms including fatigue, pain, and brain fog. CFS affects about 3 in 1000 Americans, while FMS affects 3-6 million in the US. Both conditions can be triggered by infections, stress, autoimmune diseases or hormonal imbalances. Modern medicine has had limited success treating these complex syndromes. The author describes his RISE and SHINE approach to integrative and functional treatment which focuses on reducing inflammation, improving sleep, hormonal balance, immunity, nutrition, and energy levels through diet, lifestyle changes, and natural supplements.
Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) is a severe form of Premenstrual Syndrome that affects 3-8% of women, causing severe mood changes, anxiety, and impairment in functioning during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle each month. While the exact causes are unknown, it likely involves an interaction between fluctuating hormone levels and central neurotransmitters like serotonin. Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) are effective treatments for PMDD symptoms, suggesting serotonin involvement, though their mechanism of action is complex and not solely due to serotonin reuptake inhibition. PMDD diagnosis requires prospective tracking of symptoms and exclusion of other conditions.
The document discusses the female athlete triad, which involves disordered eating, amenorrhea (loss of period), and low bone density in female athletes. It notes that disordered eating can lead to insufficient calorie and nutrient intake, hormone imbalances, and loss of periods. Prolonged amenorrhea and low estrogen levels can result in low bone density and increased risk of fractures. The triad can negatively impact athletic performance through fatigue, weakness, and inability to recover from workouts. Prevention involves maintaining a balanced diet with adequate calories and nutrients, avoiding overtraining, and developing a positive body image.
This document discusses the health hazards of fast food, including obesity, hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, depression, and heart disease. It claims that fast food is high in calories, refined fats, refined sugars, sodium, and lacks essential minerals and vitamins. Regular consumption of fast food is linked to a 58% higher risk of depression and can cause sexual dysfunction due to fatty acids decreasing libido, fertility, and sperm counts. The document encourages people to make healthy decisions by saying no to fast food, eating home-cooked meals instead of eating out, buying local and organic foods, and prioritizing health overall.
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, responsible for over 600,000 deaths yearly. Risk factors include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, smoking, and lack of physical activity. Symptoms of heart disease can include chest pain or pressure, pain or cramping in the legs with exercise, and numbness or coldness in the feet or legs. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle through diet, exercise, not smoking, and managing conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes can help prevent and manage heart disease.
This document discusses various theories of aging and approaches to anti-aging. It covers definitions of life span and life expectancy, various theories on what causes aging including evolutionary, molecular, cellular and systemic theories, and a clinical approach to aging including distinguishing true aging from disease and promoting positive aging through lifestyle factors and interventions.
Low bone density is an issue that affects many young female runners and can lead to osteoporosis later in life. Several factors contribute to low bone density in female runners, including menstrual irregularities or loss caused by low body fat, eating disorders, and the breakdown of bone during running not being replaced at the same rate. Research shows female runners are more susceptible than males due to hormonal differences. Prevention efforts focus on education and addressing modifiable factors like nutrition, calcium intake, and training regimens to promote stronger bones and reduce injury risk. Treatment options are still being explored but modifying diet and exercise is often the first approach.
Hot flashes are sudden sensations of heat that occur in 75-80% of menopausal women in the US, with the median age of menopause being 51 years old. Risk factors include obesity, smoking, low physical activity, and ethnic background. Hot flashes are caused by estrogen withdrawal affecting the hypothalamus and manifest as sudden heat, sweating, and anxiety lasting 2-4 minutes, with frequency ranging from less than one per day to one per hour. Management depends on symptom severity and a woman's medical history, with lifestyle changes for mild cases and hormone therapy or antidepressants for moderate to severe cases. Hormone therapy is generally recommended for symptomatic women within 10 years of menopause who do not have
The focus on obesity may be somewhat misleading.
Impact of physical fitness and body composition on injury risk among active young adults: A study of Army trainees, Jones et al, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsams.2017.09.015
"Conclusions: While the most aerobically fit Army trainees experience lower risk of training-related injury, at any given aerobic fitness level those with the lowest BMIs are at highest risk."
The realties are that entry poor bone status, entry nutrient deficiencies, post-entry malnutrition, and treatment protocols are significant issues re injuries, re-injuries, attrition, and readiness rates.
Advances in Frailty-understanding and managementv3venu
1. The document discusses the concept of frailty in older adults, describing it as a medical syndrome characterized by decreased reserves and resilience leading to vulnerability. It provides several definitions and models of frailty.
2. Assessment tools for frailty are discussed, including the Fried phenotype model and the FRAIL scale. Management strategies covered include exercise, nutritional supplementation, vitamin D, and reducing polypharmacy.
3. The effects of different interventions are summarized from systematic reviews, including benefits of exercise on physical function, high protein diets on outcomes, and vitamin D on strength and balance. Comprehensive geriatric assessment is recommended for full evaluation and management of frailty.
Hemp Oil: What Can It Do For You? Lebanon, TN 04 06 2018Louis Cady, MD
In this presentation, Dr. Cady reviews the peer-reviewed medical literature for the endocannibinoid system, the concept of endocannibinoid deficiency syndrome (now well established), and citations dealing with the multiplicity of health conditions for which a full spectrum hemp oil should be considered as a reasonable supportive strategy. The difference between the generic "CBD Oil" that is available at health food stores compared to the Zilis products is touched on. The Zilis products appear to have better absorbability, faster onset of action, and scientific studies elucidating the true duration of action of CBD levels in blood serum.
This presentation was given to a very appreciative audience at the Friendship Church in Lebanon, TN (a suburb of Nashville).
This document defines frailty and discusses its biological underpinnings. It begins by defining frailty as a clinical state of increased vulnerability to stressors due to age-related declines in physiological systems. Two main approaches to conceptualizing frailty are described: the phenotypic approach which sees it as a biological syndrome, and the deficit accumulation approach which views it as a multidimensional risk state. The document then discusses the potential biological mechanisms that can drive physical frailty, including declines in metabolism, nutrition utilization and skeletal muscle that trigger a cycle of physiological decline. It also briefly discusses the epidemiology and risk factors of frailty.
10 biggest health problems indian woman suffering fromGods Own Store
The document lists 10 of the most common health problems faced by Indian women. These include high blood pressure, breast cancer, PCOS/PCOD, hair loss, obesity, osteoporosis and arthritis, stress and depression, cardiac disease, Alzheimer's disease, and asthma. Many of these issues stem from lifestyle factors like poor diet, lack of exercise, pollution, smoking, and stress from work and family responsibilities. Negligence of health needs and lack of priority given to women's health also contribute to these problems.
This document discusses common myths about heart health and provides facts to dispel them. It addresses 5 myths: 1) Not everyone experiences the same heart attack symptoms, especially women who may have more subtle signs; 2) Only dark chocolate with high flavonoids provides heart benefits, while other chocolates and too much dark chocolate can negate benefits; 3) While egg whites are heart healthy, egg yolks should be limited due to their cholesterol content which studies have linked to increased blood cholesterol and plaque; 4) Saturated fat and dietary cholesterol from red meat and full-fat dairy do increase heart disease risk according to studies; 5) Moderate physical activity provides benefits but intense exercise may not further reduce heart disease risk and

"Sexy" - part 3 of the CWI Lecture Series - June 2012f sss lectures series fo...Louis Cady, MD
The document discusses a talk given by Dr. Louis Cady on 21st century medicine, focusing on taking an integrated approach to optimizing hormone levels and overall health rather than just treating disease, with examples of evaluating and treating patients with hormone deficiencies even when conventional tests are considered "normal".
In this presentation, Dr. Cady builds on previous lectures dealing with anti-oxidants and vitamin, mineral, and soil depletion to add discussions of vinpocetine and Bacopa monieri, as well as a discussion of the Medhya Rasayana approach from centuries old Aryuvedic practice in India. There is an emphasis on obtaining solid multivitamin, multi-mineral, and antioxidant support. References for two supplements lines (Physiologics and Metagenics) are given.
This document provides a summary of a presentation on vitamin supplementation and essential nutrients. It discusses declining nutrient levels in foods and soils, the importance of antioxidants and micronutrients for health, and evidence that supplementation can help address deficiencies and support overall wellness. Studies are cited showing the benefits of supplements for conditions like cardiovascular health, testosterone levels, and depression.

This year's talk heavily emphasizes the role of nutritional supplementation in supporting the structure and function of the human body. Updates from clinical cases encountered last year are also covered. General topics in this presentation include:
- the importance of evaluating and balancing the thyroid axis
- the importance of sex steroids and DHEA
- the importance of antioxidants, mineral, multivitamins, and essential fatty acids in optimal health
- the need to clearly identify, articulate, and treat the differences between something that is a pure "psychiatric" condition and the covert masqueraders which may actually represent undiagnosed and untreated physiological/medical conditions until addressed.
Lifestyle Medicine: The Power of Personal Choices, North American Vegetarian...EsserHealth
Lifestyle Medicine focuses on applying behavioral and environmental principles to managing lifestyle-related health problems. Chronic diseases now account for 75% of healthcare costs in the US, many of which are strongly associated with diet and physical inactivity. While genetics play a role, the rise of these "lifestyle diseases" correlates with changes in American diets and exercise patterns over recent decades. Prospective randomized studies demonstrate that organized lifestyle interventions can significantly reduce disease incidence and healthcare costs compared to prescription medications. Lifestyle Medicine aims to educate and empower individuals to make personal choices that can transform health outcomes on both individual and societal levels.
This document provides an overview of a presentation on optimizing neurovascular aging through nutritional and weight management techniques. The presentation discusses the importance of micronutrient adequacy and macronutrient balance in diet and their relationship to neurovascular health issues. It also discusses how our functioning as we age and freedom from disease and depression is dependent on our diet and behaviors. The presentation provides information on common micronutrient deficiencies in North America, physiological effects of deficiencies, and the role of antioxidants in brain and body health.
The Do It To Yourself Treatment of Depression - Webinar #3Louis Cady, MD
This is the third in a series of five webinars. The first was on staying alive by boosting your immunity during COVID 19. The second was on not screwing yourself up inside your head. This third one encompasses a romp through the peer reviewed medical literature looking for supplements and nutrients that you could use to self treat depression at home, CAREFULLY. Numerous cautions and warnings are included.
The driving impetus to this program is that many people - due to social isolation and their mental health care, or medical practitioners' offices being closed down - have not been able to get help or succeed in optimizing their treatment for depression. There are multiple useful nutrients for both depression and anxiety in nature's abundant pharmacopeia, and this webinar touches on just a few of them.
I hope you enjoy it.

Two Docs Talk: Drs. Cady & Gabhart Take it On the Road:Louis Cady, MD
Drs Cady and Gabhart of the Cady Wellness Institute deliver a "command performance" at the Kannise Hair Salon in Owensboro - apparently a hotbed interest site for information pertaining to thyroid dysfunction in women. (Hair stylists hear about it all the time!). This was a fun example of staff at CWI "taking it on the road" out to our communities to educate the lay public on topics of self-empowerment.
This is the second of five lectures given by Dr. Cady in Santa Fe, NM for the 2012 IMMH conference. It covers the need to identify the hormonal deficiencies of a patient, and ways to remediate them.
Thyroid, Adrenals, & Sex Hormones: A Balancing ActLouis Cady, MD
This document summarizes key points about balancing thyroid, adrenal, and sex hormones for optimal health and mental wellness. It discusses how these hormone systems can become imbalanced, leading to fatigue, depression, and other symptoms. The document contrasts an "optimal" level of hormone functioning with merely being in the "normal" range. It also critiques conventional medical approaches and advocates an integrated approach considering all aspects of these hormone systems.
Thyroid, Adrenals, and Sex Steroids - A Balancing ActLouis Cady, MD
This was the second presentation gibven on MZarch 29, 2019 at the Manlove Psychiagtric Group and Brain Injury Institute spring conference in Rapid City, SD.
In this presentation, Dr. Cady carefully goes over the necessity of integrating and overview and awareness of hormones and their levels in the elucidation of what truly is going on with the patient.

The document discusses the declining state of healthcare in the US. It notes that healthcare costs have risen tremendously and chronic conditions now account for 80% of costs. Lifestyle factors like poor nutrition, lack of exercise, and overconsumption of sugar are major contributors to health problems. The document advocates for lifestyle changes like improved diet, hydration, supplementation and exercise to promote wellness and prevent disease.
Transition from allopathic to integrated medical practiceLouis Cady, MD
This is the keynote lecture of the series of three lectures that Dr. Cady presented to the World Link Medical seminar in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 1, 2012.
With conventional allopathic medicine, when we present our symptoms to our doctors we are hoping for a solution. What we often receive is a diagnosis accompanied by a prescription to relieve our symptoms, and we are sent home. However, symptoms are the body’s way of telling us that something is out of balance; similar to the warning light that pops up on the dashboard of our cars when something is wrong.
In this first lecture of 2013 at Cady Wellness Institute, Dr. Cady presented the facts and strategies in front of a live audience for rebroadcast on WNIN - our local public television station. These are the EXACT SLIDES used in the presentation. We would like to thank all of those in the live audience who attended. For questions or comments, please feel free to contact us at front desk@cadywellness.com or call the Institute at ()812) 429 - 0772.
The document discusses a presentation on lifestyle medicine and exercise prescription, including goals of providing knowledge on foundational muscle physiology concepts, exploring exercise as medicine, and developing skills to write exercise prescriptions and motivate patients to change habits.

SEND IN THE SHRINKS - 2009 Oliver CME seminarLouis Cady, MD
This one was fun.
I was invited by Dr. Randalll Oliver, MD, Founder of the Oliver Heachache and Pain Clinic in Evansville, to present to an audience of primary care practitioners about how to use pysychiatric mediations ("psychopharmacology") in clinical practice.
Along the way, I covered, ADHD and treatments, depression, anxiety, erectile dysfunction, hypoadrenia, and even touched on hypothyroidism. Although this presentation was in 2009, all of the drugs covered are stills in use, and, at times.... stupidly.
This presentation deconstructs the intricacies of selecting and antidepressant, particularly in the SSRI class.
What is the nature of QUALITY in medicine -for ASQ 11 14 2023.pptLouis Cady, MD
In this presentation, Dr. Cady deconstructs the tensions and stressors on both patients and health care providers in today's system.
This presentation reviews checklists foe liminating mistakes, the actual number of mistakes that are being made in medical practice, and what patients and their loved ones can do for self protection.
This isn't a "bash the doctor" presentation. It's a thoughtful, careful exploration of stresses and ramifications to the current US healthcare system.
This document provides information about a presentation given by Dr. Louis B. Cady on transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as a treatment for depression.

The presentation then covers how TMS works, its safety and effectiveness compared to antidepressant medications and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), and its inclusion in treatment guidelines for depression.
Hormones and Mental Health - Thyroid and Testosterone.pptxLouis Cady, MD
In this presentation for the Psychiatry Redefined program, Dr.
Cady breaks down and deconstructs the accepted, unthinking, "practice guideline based" notions of thyroid and tesotsterone, with there seemingly "normal" levels and dosing, versus what the actual peer reviewed medical literature says. In this presentation, do use of all forms of thyroid, and all forms of testosterone are reviewed. The idiocy of "T4 only treatment" is covered. The use of T4, T3, a combination of T4 and T3, and all of the porcine and compounded products is review.
In terms of testosterone, dr. Katie reviews the concept of "do you want to be optimal or do you want to be normal." He notes that it is "normal" for oil in cars to deteriorate and break down with age. It's also "normal" for men's and women's testosterone (as well as thyroid) to go down with age. The question is, "do we want to do anything about it?"
Logical ways of intervening in both the thyroid and female and male gonadal axes are covered. There is scrupulous attention paid to the thyroid hormone pathways, and the relevance of reverse T3 versus free T3. Similarly, in terms of women, the downstream effect of estradiol coming from testosterone is also reviewed.
The Moral Imperative of Integrative Medicine 2022.pptLouis Cady, MD
The document discusses the case of a 16-year-old teenager with a long history of treatment-resistant depression and anxiety. Previous medication trials with SSRIs, SNRIs, atypical antipsychotics, and lamotrigine had failed to provide sustained relief. Upon further evaluation, the doctor found potential contributing factors including an undiagnosed MTHFR gene mutation and hormonal imbalances. The doctor adjusted the teenager's supplements and medications, focusing on addressing the underlying functional issues. At follow-up several months later, the teenager reported significantly improved mood with only brief periods of low mood, though menstrual irregularities persisted.
CORONOFOBIA - Passos práticos para equilibrar as defesas do corpo e da menteLouis Cady, MD
Esta palestra, apresentada em 29 de maio de 2021 para o Congresso de Medicina Integrativa para a Saúde Mental 2020, promovido pelo Laboratório Great Plains no Brasil, enfocou coisas simples e de bom senso que os pacientes (e seus médicos) podem fazer para se manter seguros e viver durante o Pandemia do covid.
Os seguintes conceitos holísticos foram revisados:
- sono adequado e por que é tão importante;
- o uso de melatonina, cientificamente validada como tendo atividade antiviral (referências citadas);
- a importância de diminuir o estresse e técnicas para fazê-lo;
- a necessidade de "comer frutas e vegetais" como sua mãe e sua avó ensinaram devido à ingestão de carotenóides e antioxidantes ((referências citadas);
- o uso adequado de suplementos vitamínicos / nutricionais (referências citadas).
O foco desta apresentação não foram medidas heróicas para salvar vidas na unidade de terapia intensiva para pacientes gravemente enfermos com COVID, mas, sim, técnicas de bom senso, práticas, baratas e (em alguns casos) GRATUITAS para melhorar você e seus pacientes 'saúde e resistência às doenças.
THE MORAL IMPERATIVE OF INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE - O IMPERATIVO MORAL DA MEDICINA...Louis Cady, MD
Neste programa, o Dr. Cady baseia-se em uma série de casos clínicos para ilustrar a necessidade absoluta e moral do tratamento de precisão de nossos pacientes com todas as ferramentas disponíveis para uso por meio da medicina integrativa.
O uso de testes de polimorfismo MTHFR, testes convencionais e laboratoriais e testes farmacogenômicos foram revisados.
Os casos apresentados ilustram a trágica dificuldade de um menino com deficiência de MTHFR que estava prestes a desviar sua vida; um paciente esquizofrênico com vários problemas de medicina funcional que precisavam ser resolvidos (levedura, glúten, sensibilidade alimentar de IgG); uma estudante universitária a quem foi dito "não há nada de errado com você; seus laboratórios estão bem", embora ela tenha manifestado todos os sintomas relevantes de hipotireoidismo; e um CEO do sexo masculino de 42 anos que estava "tão cansado que parecia morrer" e que, na verdade, estava funcionalmente com pouco testosterona. O último caso revisado foi de um adorável garotinho que tinha autismo e foi recuperado por meio de uma abordagem focada e intensa de medicina integrativa.
Dr. Cady deconstructs some the medical literature about the use of nutrients - and the evidence of what happens in the presence of their insufficiency. Everything for decreased viral replication to decrease brain shrinkage is covered. The role of antioxidant and carotenoids, measured by the Pharmanex Biophotonic Scanner, is reviewed.
Please note - there is no representation that any nutrient or supplement can treat, prevent, mitigate, or cure any medical condition. It does seem, however, upon reflecting on the medical literature, that there seems to be a lot of evidence for therapeutic effect in the presence of good levels of nutrient, and harm to patients if they have insufficient levels.

Gas is all that is required. We should use optimal quality of gas. Cheap gas causes “pinging” which is hard on the engine. The quality of the gas is irrelevant. Anything that the motor will burn is adequate. We should take our car in for preventive maintenance before anything breaks. Preventive maintenance? This is silly! Wait until something breaks, then have the car towed in so the mechanic can really tell what is wrong.
