Lack of Oxygen causes Cancer?
The foundation of cancer treatment at East Valley Naturopathic Doctors is based on the profound research of Otto Warburg. Otto Warburg, M.D.,Ph.D., proved that a 35% reduction in oxygen caused any cell to either die or turn cancerous. Cancer is the body, at the cellular level, attempting to survive by reverting to a primitive survival mechanism. Surprisingly, it’s that simple. Most normal healthy cells get their energy by using oxygen in a process called “respiration.” This can be contrasted Read more [...]
Dysport
If the world perceives you as angry even before you speak, first time interactions perceive you as angry. When a movement of the face is made enough times it creates a wrinkle, just as folding fabric over and over will create a crease. These lines eventually persist, even when your face is at rest. This can make you look angry even if you are extremely happy.

Getting it looked at is the first step. Most of the skin growths are nothing to lose sleep over. If it is a skin cancer, Read more [...]
Bed Time Tips and Tricks
Getting the kids to bed quickly and without a fight is one of my most common complaints from the mom's in my practice. Here are a few tips and tricks to get your kids to sleep quickly and without a fight.
1. Start a nightly routine. Following the same routine every night before going to bed gives your body the signal that it is time to go to settle down and go to sleep.

3. Read more [...]

Stress and Sleep
I have been treating young mothers for over 20 years. I have observed that mothering, as busy and demanding as it is, takes precedence to individual maintenance of physical and emotional health. Early in my career while in school at ASU for my undergraduate in Exercise Science, I noticed how much better everyone felt upon starting a regular exercise routine. It seems to immediately lift the mood and improve stress response to daily tasks. I also quickly noticed that eating three meals daily also Read more [...]

The “Spring-Time” Allergy Blues
Perhaps one of the most irritating medical symptoms is a runny nose. Constant rubbing, blowing, and chaffing of the nose, due to chronic rhinitis, can be treated without the use of medications. The two types of allergy symptoms arise from three causes. The first can result from exposure to common and well known triggers. These include dust mites, cockroaches, dog dander, cat dander, trees, weeds, grasses, and molds. These are found plentiful in the outdoors and can concentrate indoors, particularly Read more [...]
