Weight that Won't Budge. Iodine the panacea. Armour thyroid.
|
Greetings!
There have been a few patients who had perfect diets, even to our standards, and still couldn't lose weight.
In the last two months we have had a significant discovery. The addition of iodine in sufficient quantity has helped seven of these patients lose weight. That was their only change and their diet was already good. There are 180 other symptoms that can occur with iodine deficiency. Read on...

Iodine the panacea.
Armour thyroid medication.
|
|
Before WWII, iodine was a panacea. Doctors prescribed it for everything because it was and still is commonly deficient and it affects so much. By 1956, there were 1,700 medical preparations that were made with iodine. By the 1960's drug companies realized that if everyone was iodine sufficient, then they had little chance of making big money so they started to attack it with bogus research which continues today. Medical schools still teach students that iodine is bad. Iodine is not even available at regular pharmacies anymore. I went to six pharmacies before I found iodine in sufficient quantity for oral intake.
Now, natural thyroid hormones are being attacked. Go to: FDA Attacks Natural Thyroid Replacement for more information on this. There are five drug companies that make it and three have been told to stop. One was already having difficulty with production. The drug companies want thyroid patients on one of the many synthetic thyroid hormone drugs. We are soon stocking a natural dessicated thyroid glandular product for those who have lost their original source of thyroid medication.
We have actually helped people improve their thyroid health to the degree that they didn't need thyroid medications anymore and their MD took them off. Other's were able to decrease the dose of the drug and feel better.
We can see why iodine was used as a panacea prior to WWII. Many cases of anxiety, depression, fatigue and weakness have been successfully handled by our patients once starting iodine in the last three months. it really gets to an underlying problem.
Come to our office and we will help you determine your iodine need. Currently, out of 800,000 doctors in the country, there are only a few thousand who are addressing this problem. Call our office to get the proper care you need.

Flexible Spending Accounts and Health Savings Accounts

Company Health Benefits
2010 Open Enrollment
Open Enrollment for Health Care Benefits in your Company will begin soon. Check with your HR Department to see if they offer their employees the opportunity to enroll in a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or a Health Savings Account (HSA). Many FSA and HSA accounts will reimburse you for your nutrition or chiropractic visits, supplements, and other alternative modalities.
What is a Flexible Spending Account?
A healthcare flexible spending account, or FSA, is a generic term for a voluntary reimbursement program many employers offer their employees to help pay for healthcare-related expenses not covered by insurance. The money placed in these accounts is not taxed. Approximately ninety-one percent of employers offering reimbursement accounts offer healthcare FSAs (Source: Hewitt Associates).
An employee's participation in a healthcare FSA is also voluntary. The account may be funded by contributions from the employee alone, or a combination of employer and employee contributions. The employee may use the monies to reimburse a variety of healthcare-related expenses that are not included in his/her health insurance plan, such as alternative health care. (Most flex accounts will reimburse you for any of the services we offer.)
There are also real, tangible benefits for employees:
Employee FSA contributions are made with pre-tax dollars, saving them an average of 40 percent on eligible expenses every year and are covered for you and your tax dependents. FSAs provide employees with an additional option for minimizing health care costs.
Check to see if your employer offers this program for you.

"I was basically in good health and exercising regularly, but had noticed a sluggishness and daytime sleepiness. The first change was "feeding" my thyroid. Wow, I was amazed with the changes. Increased energy, no more constipation, sleepiness gone. Tremendous improvement. Overall feeling of good health - happy body! I'm very glad I took the stop to come here. I was skeptical at first and probably more curious. But, I'm glad I was because I like my path to total health. Thank you to all for answering my repetitive questions. My husband is next...he just doesn't know it yet."

"I had no energy to get through my day. I could sleep 11 hours a night but wake up feeling like I needed to keep sleeping. By lunch time I was ready for a nap. I was irritable with my husband and kids and I was so emotional. My eating habits were not good. I skipped meals and didn't eat many vegetables. Now, my energy has improved immensely! I stay up until 11:00 p.m. and get up on my own by 7:00 a.m. and want to go exercise! I am eating lots more protein and vegetables and very little carbohydrates! I love my husband and kids and don't seem as irritable with them! Life is great. I want my family and friends to feel this good. I need to educate them and let them know about NHCAA! I want them to all read 'Getting Back to the Basics of Human Health'!"

"I had daily knee and ankle pain; numbness and pain in my wrists at night that would wake me up in tears. Anxiety, depression and headaches on a regular basis. Gastrointestinal issues also on a regular basis; difficulty falling asleep and waking up several times throughout the night. Daily fatigue. Now, all my symptoms have improved between 50-80%. Overall, I feel my health has improved with the guidance and treatment by Dr. Shannon. I am looking forward to continued improvement."
