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.

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.

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.

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 [...]

I started using this juicing recipe recently and I have fallen in love with it.  It is a great tool for detoxification as it is really high in anti-oxidants and so good for your skin.  After doing research on different juicers, I found the Icon by Breville.  I don't have to peel or skin anything before juicing.  You can order this juicer for around $200 through Sur La Table, they offer free shipping.  And as always, try to go organic. 1 Beet 1 dozen Carrots 3-4 Apples (I prefer Fuji, Read more [...]
