"era of flawed methodologies" You are entitled to your opinion but did they have cancers back then? 1 in 4 Americans taking antidepressants. Obesity, blood pressure, heart disease, autism on the rise. Tell me how many Americans will be able to survive without medicines? Our lifespan would not be bet...

How about this? "The administration of inorganic iron cannot be said to produce any constant alteration in the course of an experimental hemorrhagic anemia." http://books.google.com/books?uid=114584440181414684107&source=gbs_lp_bookshelf_list or this? http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8847541 "Brai...

This is just an excerpt from the article but it gives us an idea that the inorganic iron may not actually be usable. This is how they were thinking in the 1800’s and early 1900’s. And I believe they were correct because I have the proof from a very unlikely source. But read this first. http://jn.nut...

Non heme iron is absorbed differently than heme iron. And ferritin is where the non heme iron goes. Here is just one example: “Serum ferritin was logarithmically and inversely associated with nonheme-iron absorption .” http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/69/5/944.full This example is poor but it will ...

Jimmy, you worry about my daughter’s iron? Why? Her iron is going up, she is not displaying any symptoms of anemia, zero, she has this super energy, her cognitive part I don’t even recognize, she gets A’s in almost all subjects except history which she gets A’s and B’s and she used to get C’s and D’...

I got my daughter’s test results. You’re not going to like it. Her Zinc is normal but at 58 the range is 25-148 mcg/dL. That’s lower from last time. Magnesium is normal 2.0 the range is 1.5-2.5 mg/mL. Iron is normal 56 the range is 27-164. Everything else is normal except Hemoglobin which is 11.3 (L...

Thanks Jimmy. I’ve been busy eating the last couple of days and I lost it. Chinese, sandwiches, chips, soda, you name it. I am so mad at myself for being so stupid. Now my back is going to really crack. Anyway, there is a lot I have to work on but first I have to know if I really have osteoporosis. ...

The vitamins I take or started taking are: Calcium 500mg 2xday, Magnesium 250 mg 1xday, Zinc 50mg 1xweek, vit. D3 2000 2xday, cod liver oil 200 mg 2xday, B1 100mg 1xday, B2 100mg 1xday, B6 200 mg 1xday, vit. E 400 1xweek, B12 2500 mcg 1xweek. As you can see the B’s are much higher than the daily req...

While I am waiting for my daughter’s test results I have a question for you, Jimmy. As you know I was taking for years meds for acid reflux and I had an Xray few days ago that shows spine fracture which I believe is caused by Nexium and all the other acid reflux medicines. Because there is only one ...

I know about magnesium and zinc and I am constantly making sure that our diet includes them even though it's hard. In the hospital there was a female doctor that made me look like I am denying life saving treatment for my own child. Because of her, both my daughter and the rest of my family demanded...

I won the bet but nobody wants to pay me now. Never make bets with family and friends! What's your opinion re: doctor opting not to take the life-saving medicine for her ms? To me this is hypocrisy. Next time I'll go to see my daughter's neurologist I am going to take a copy of that article with me ...

Yes Jimmy, I will ask for ferritin and zinc, I just don't know if I can take all this tests at the same time. I would like to check magnesium and vitamin D again too.
Anyway, I bet $10 on Seattle Seahawks and so far I am winning.

Here is another doctor with ms:

You can print this article and take it to your own doctor and ask "why should I believe you?" and when you're done send an email to the FDA and ask them the same question.

Just the regular blood work, CBC, iron, and I want to do all B’s this time. Of course this is a new doctor and I am sick already that I have to even ask for this because today’s doctors are definitely not the doctors from the past, the ones that care about their patients. The doctor that I fired is ...

Hi Jimmy, Happy New Year! I am glad the ’13 is finally over, we can start living in peace now. I am taking my daughter to her new doctor next week and we’ll do some tests. I had her mri done and it showed the liver and the entire abdomen clear, so there was definitely no iron overload. It seems, she...
