Using the best of MODERN and COMPLEMENTARY Medicines

The cost of modern medicine is crippling - yet it is failing - Today's diseases - heart, stroke, cancer, Alzheimer's, diabetes, are all rising despite the $billions spent.
Modern medicine is based round drugs and procedures which help symptoms, but not prevention and cure!
We have ignored the body's ability to heal itself!
Complementary therapies help fill this gap. My website (www.drgerald.co.nz) lists how many diseases can be treated his way - you are welcome to use it free.
WE NEED TO SEEK THE BEST OF BOTH CONVENTIONAL AND COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIES.
In this blog I will post what I sees as the best and most useful conventional and complementary information - as it comes to hand..

It's sugar - NOT salt that is killing our generation!

For years we have been blaming salt for high blood pressure, metabolic syndrome, heart disease and even cancers - but we ignored SUGAR which is the real culprit.

In a paper delivered in Openheart journal they make this claim : 
"Evidence from epidemiological
studies and experimental trials in animals and humans
suggests that added sugars, particularly fructose, may
increase blood pressure and blood pressure variability,
increase heart rate and myocardial oxygen demand,
and contribute to inflammation, insulin resistance and
broader metabolic dysfunction."

Here is a link to the full article. http://www.nacion.com/vivir/medicina/azucar-enfermedades_del_corazon-nutricion_LNCFIL20141209_0002.pdf

But they still haven't realised just why this is happening - I'll, address this in a later blog post.   The real culprit is high fructose corn syrup that is being used to sweeten so many of our processed foods today - and a small change in our evolution tens of thousands of years ago.   WE ARE NOT DESIGNED TO EAT THIS STUFF  and we are suffering from its exploitation.
