Addiction (See also Alcoholism and Drug Addiction)

Addiction is involuntary servitude to a substance or behavior, a vicious and tenacious kind of habit. Habitual thought or action establishes a neural pathway in the brain. The more the habit is reinforced by repetition, the more the neural pathway amplified: what begins as an indistinct footpath can develop into a neural superhighway. The additional insult of a mind-stressing substance distorts brain function and chemistry, and inflicts a wide variety of deleterious effects on virtually all body systems - sooner or later resulting in intractable alteration of gene expression, if not gene structure and information content.

Addiction can begin at a very early or very late age, but it most commonly takes root in youth from the ages of 10 to 25 years.

All Ages

In our treatment protocol, we combine the latest  scientific knowledge, safe natural supplements, body-brain-mind therapies and prescription medicine (only if needed). The addictive drugs have been shown to change the brain biochemistry and in some cases induce cognitive impairment. The urge usually causes permanent changes to the total person.

Our advanced, time-tested services include the importance of designing specific individualized treatments to balance brain biochemical deficits and rise above the magnetic pull of alcohol or drugs. We aim to provide lasting pleasure based food supplement compensations that provide energy, a low-fat diet, daily stress and anxiety management with fun exercises. This facilitates for lifestyle changes by altering gene expression in participants and may reduce cravings in future offspring. Every child has the potential to abuse alcohol and drugs. After living and observing many communities around the world, my first hand global observation is that addiction of any substance can begin as early in life as 3 years of age.

Tips for Preventing Drug and Alcohol Addiction among 10 to 25 year olds.
Drug addiction has a variety of causes and many contributing factors that affect 10 to 25 year olds. Usually addictions slowly take hold of an individual. Prescription addiction at the top of the list is followed by alcohol addiction. Often addictions are labeled as diseases. If the brain and body are slowly introduced to addictive substances, the genes may express themselves as disease entities. Early prevention and relaxed consistent neuro pleasure inducing compensation has proven to be effective for a life time as one travels through various transitions in life such as relational break-up, divorce, death or other tragedies.

Check for specific signs:
1) Know your child.
2) Observe early signs of drug abuse such as falling grades, weight-loss or appetite loss, changes in behavior, change in energy level, radical changes in clothes, hairstyle, rejection of former friends in favor of others.
3) Provide information. Address the drugs that relate to your specific audience, age group and demographic. Be caring and personable.
4) Example starts in the family. Parents have a responsibility to provide an example to their children in their lifestyle and providing for open communication about pros and cons.

ADHDThere are two groups of symptoms that define Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). One is related to inattention and the other to hyperactivity and impulsive behavior. Individuals with ADHD, predominantly hyperactive-impulsive type, usually display six or more symptoms of hyperactivity-impulsivity and less than six symptoms of inattention. They usually show some of the following symptoms: hyperactivity, restlessness, inappropriate running and climbing, excessive talking, a tendency to interrupt others, impatience, impulsivity, haste, and rapid movements. The stimulant drugs Dexedrine and Ritalin, and the first non-stimulant drug, Strattera, are still the standard treatments. They are toxic and are not curative. It appears that children with ADHD have at least one parent who meets the criteria for a diagnosis.

For Children: Neuro Relaxer, Brain Food (EPA/DHA), GTF Chromium, L-Taurine, Natural 5-HTP, ADHD Relief chewable tablets), L-Theanine, Pure Super Enzymes Chewables, Buffered Vitamin C, Royal Jelly, Children’s Ultimate Multiple Vitamin, Manganese, Vitamin B-6, Neuro Complex.

For Adults: Brain Food, Neuro Complex, Neuro Relaxer, Neuro Balancer (take one tablet with dinner for one week and observe your progress for a week or as needed), Multivitamin, L-Taurine, Natural 5-HTP, and L-Tryptophan. Avoid copper, shellfish, colas. Reduce all sweets and processed foods like white bread, toaster pastries, and doughnuts. Biofeedback/Neurofeedback sessions accompanied by Bible-based, multi-image brain training can facilitate improvement.

Alcoholism (also see Drug Addiction)Alcoholism affects more men than women. Studies reveal that children of alcoholic parents are more prone to abuse alcohol than children of nondrinkers. It is possible that some children are born with abnormal levels of various neurotransmitters or defective receptors in the nucleus accumbens, and other sites of the brain. Chronic stress or anxiety also can promote brain deficiencies. Consequently, many seem to engage in artificial pleasure-producing activities. Alcoholism can develop at any age. Alcoholics usually deny their problem. In severe alcoholism, detoxification may require medical supervision. Chronic drinkers undergo personality changes and suffer mental, physical, spiritual, and social ill effects. People who repeatedly abuse alcohol or drugs develop a deficiency of most of the brain chemicals, especially dopamine. Depression, suicide, violence, crime, and marital breakdown plague alcoholics.

God can deliver you from every addiction and abnormal pleasure-enhancing activity. In the concluding verse of the beautiful sixteenth Psalm, David so eloquently wrote about God’s loving care, “You will show me the way of life; in your presence is fullness of joy. You have made available to me endless pleasures at your right hand” (Psalm 16:11). Are you thinking about quitting? Don’t procrastinate; be accountable and open. Be serious about quitting and start by changing your way of thinking and living. Stay focused on your goal of becoming like the Lord Jesus. Let the Holy Spirit control you and give you pleasure through spiritual means.

Recommended Supplements: Liver Detoxifier and Regenerator, Neuro Complex, L-Glutamine, Brain Igniter, Royal Jelly, Brain Food, Pure Super Enzymes Chewables, Alcohol Urge Relief (chewable tablets), GTF Chromium, Women's/Men's Multivitamin, PH Balancer, Buffered or Time-Release Vitamin-C, Ultra Vitamin K, Choline/Inosital, DMG, L-Carnosine, L-Methionine, B-12, B-1, Zinc, L-Carnitine Liquid (1 tablespoon a.m., noon, and p.m. to relieve urge).

Liver Detox & Regenerator is essential to protect and reverse the toxic effects of alcohol, or utilize Naltrexone (a drug that blocks the pleasure effects of alcohol). Avoid all animal fats and processed or fried foods and sweets. UCLA research unequivocally concludes that you are better off to abstain from alcohol. You should participate in a support group during your recovery process. Studies and clinical use have demonstrated that Kudzu root extract effectively reduces the craving for alcohol. Pure Kudzu root is available at www.natureshospital.com.

Alzheimer`s DiseaseAlzheimer’s Disease Inside the Brain
The progressive degeneration of brain tissue is characterized by the gradual proliferation of clumps of tangled fibers and sticky neuritic plaques called beta amyloid. Scientists link the disease to a gene that codes for the synthesis of apolipoprotein E (APOE), a substance that helps deliver cholesterol and triglyceride fats throughout body cells. The risk for Alzheimer’s is dramatically increased in those with the genetic variant known as APOE4. In a study based on military medical records, researchers found that head injuries in youth greatly increased the risk of developing Alzheimer’s later in life. The disease develops in the interior part of the brain known as the entorhinal cortex and slowly spreads upward to the hippocampus, the part of the brain responsible for forming and retrieving various kinds of memories. Eventually the disease makes its way to the cortex. As the disease spreads to various regions of the brain, social abilities deteriorate, along with perception of space and time. Severe mood swings, outbursts of anger, aggressive behavior, disorientation, odd gait, or loss of coordination, and loss of bladder and/or bowel control may ensue as the disease progresses. Sufferers may also experience episodes of fearfulness, deep apathy, depression, or complete loss of reality and speech functions. The brain shrinks in size and weight as the disease eats away healthy cells. At this stage, memory of all kinds and capacity for abstract thought processes are lost. Personality and spirituality are also destroyed as the brain dies away. There is nothing we know today that will completely regenerate the brain to its original form once the disease has destroyed a substantial portion of the brain. The progressive nature of Alzheimer’s disease is classified into three stages.
  • Stage I is characterized by progressive forgetfulness, loss of short-term memory, increased anxiety and sometimes depression. At this stage spiritual aspiration is usually lost or reduced to mere ritualistic repetition.
  • In Stage II, past memory may
    remain intact; immediate memory becomes elusive. The early signs of disorientation and confusion become a daily experience. Writing difficulties and other distortions of cognitive functions take the victim further into a shadowy world. Initially the person is usually helplessly aware of his deepening
    predicament. In most cases, toward the end of Stage II, mood and personality rapidly deteriorate.
  • In Stage III most people lose cherished memories, the ability to recognize loved ones, and even themselves. Delusions, hallucinations, passivity, and violent episodes may follow. In addition, most become bedridden, needing full-time hospital or nursing home care. Some may lapse into an unconscious state before passing away.
Intervention
The sooner natural interventions are implemented, the more promising the outcome. For some, progress with supplements will take time, based on the extent of brain tissue loss. People with early stage Alzheimer’s may usually show rapid improvement with supplementation and wholesome diet within one year. Others may take anywhere from one year or more to show improvement. If the disease has progressed to many regions of the brain, regeneration will take longer, and full recovery is questionable. When one-fourth or more of the brain is destroyed, it’s your decision to give or not to give supplements. No matter how advanced the disease, some of the ingredients in the recommended supplements are capable of enhancing activity and inhibiting the rapid destruction of brain cells. Published studies also indicate these ingredients may protect healthy people against various types of degeneration that occur in the aging brain. What’s good for the brain is generally good for the heart.

Proven Tips:
1. Establish a consistent and familiar routine.
2. Four to six small meals are recommended.
3. Taking an afternoon nap is helpful for brain regeneration. You need at least eight hours of sleep in the night. If you cannot sleep well, take sleep supplements.
4. Rocking chairs seem to help reduce anxiety, frustration and depression. Rocking also increases motivation to walk.
5. Eating a balanced natural food diet (consisting primarily of whole grains, legumes, fresh vegetables and fruits, with or without a small quantity of animal products—preferably all organically raised) will slow mental deterioration, assist the process of cleansing the body, improve energy level and wellbeing, and substantially enhance the efficiency of nutritional supplementation. Diet is a vital part of any treatment plan for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. If chewing foods is difficult, purée them in a blender and concentrate on improving the quality of diet and assuring thorough chewing of foods, even those that are puréed.
6. Closely related to diet, the following also warrant consideration. Adequate intake of pure water, generally one to three quarts daily, is very important, especially during the first few months of dietary change or supplementation.
These measures prompt a cleansing detoxification of the body. Avoid food or drink that has been heated, cooked, or stored in aluminum or fluorocarbon-coated (e.g., Teflon) cookware, since both aluminum and fluoride compounds are neurotoxins. Do not neglect God’s most basic gifts: sunshine, a vital nutrient taken in through the skin and eyes (take off your glasses and expose your eyes to indirect sunlight with eyes open, direct sunlight with eyes closed); fresh air and contact with the earth—walk barefooted on grass, take walks in beautiful natural places, plant flowers if you can, enjoy the sunrise and sunset, those wonderful demonstrations of God’s glory. Bathe or shower with filtered water to keep your body clean and fresh; vigorously rubbing the skin with a terry cloth towel is stimulating and beneficial.
7. Evidence based on observation suggests that Alzheimer’s Disease may develop following emotional trauma (loss of a loved one, deep disappointment, major setbacks in life, etc.) or in those drifting into a state of emotional resignation. Attention to emotional issues and attitudes—plus creating an environment of pleasure, lively interest in life, joy, gratitude, friendship, creativity, prayer, and spirituality—may be crucial to the long-term success of any regimen for the prevention or treatment of Alzheimer’s and related degenerative disorders.

Suggestion for Support. Pray and act.
The responsibility of taking care of a person with Alzheimer’s can be overwhelming. Bible-believing churches in nearby cities can get together, organize and provide safe, loving, friendly day care centers for our suffering senior saints. Meantime, look to adult day care centers, support groups for caregivers, medical, social, or family counseling groups. Recommended Supplements: Brain Igniter and Brain Food (give both together), Pure Super Enzymes Chewables, Male Performance Extender, Neuro Balancer (if depression is present, take it alone from other supplements, with food), Neuro Complex, L-Theanine, L-Carnosine, DMAE, Clarimen GC (creatine monohydrate), Women's/Men's Multivitamin, Natural 5-HTP or Melatonin and Vitamin B-6 at bedtime, Advanced Gamma Vitamin E Complex, B-12 (only in the daytime), Neuro Relaxer (take only as prescribed on bottle). L-Carnitine liquid, Heart Prolongevity and Bone Density Calcium/Mag+D and Coral Calcium Plus (rotate monthly), Ultra Vitamin K, Immune Enhancer I and Immune Enhancer II, Grapeseed and Skin Extract, and L-Taurine, Alzheimer's Relief Tablets. You may add additional CoQ10 (made in Japan). Vol. 3 of "Brain Power" contains detailed information on Alzheimer’s, other brain diseases and the use of DMAE, Pregnenolone, and growth hormone formulas. Galantamine is included in Neuro Relaxer, which is widely used for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. We are in the process of finalizing a formula that contains the best of many supplements effective in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease in one bottle.

Anger Management (Explosive Temper, Mood Swings, Sudden Violence, Intermittent Poor Memory)“A foolish person allows his anger to run wild, but a wise person keeps himself under control” (Proverbs 29:11).
Most events in our life evoke many emotions within us and we need them. We regulate them almost spontaneously based on our consciousness and other factors. An exaggerated response to our emotions can lead to undesirable consequences. Regarding an angry temperament, we find the causes are many. These include perceived threat, jealousy, resentment, deprivation, various mental or physical disorders, a history of abuse or neglect in childhood, permissive or inconsistent upbringing, modeling of an angry parent, painful feelings or unresolved bitter conflicts, street drugs, toxic effects of certain medications, and synthetic food additives or alcohol. Often several of these factors combine to create the angry person.

Essentially, uncontrolled anger is a bad habit, so learn to control your emotions. Every habit—good or bad—has a corresponding neural pathway in the brain. Indulge a habit and an epinephrine rush releases a flood of angry hormones and neurotransmitters that in turn activate the amygdala and the prefrontal cortex that is responsible for reducing the inhibition capability of your brain. When you cool down, your brain can call on the rest of the brain regions to handle your anger at an adult-level cognitive control of emotions. Then you can positively redirect your energy to do something that pleases God. The brain processes that control anger in children, adolescents, and adults with hormonal and neurological deficits may explain why these groups show slow integration of planned positive behaviors that are stored in specialized regions of the brain. The Scriptures do not define any age group as incapable of loving Jesus Christ. All are capable of fine-tuning their behavior based on the lifestyle of Jesus Christ. So the crucial strategies in coping with the anger habit at any age are to:
a) obey the teachings of the Bible to make proper decisions; avoid risky, antisocial behavior and control impulses;
b) “transform or fine-tune your mind” through the work of the Holy Spirit; and
c) the use of recommended supplements for anger management can significantly shift the odds in favor of self-control.

“Get rid of all bitterness, rage, settled feelings of anger, harsh words, lying and hatred. Instead, be kind and tender to one another, forgiving each other, just as God forgave you because Christ has forgiven you” (Ephesians 4:31–32). “Stop being angry! “Turn away from rage!


“Do not lose your cool—it only leads to harm” (Psalm 37:8).
 “Spirit-controlled people regulate their emotions; they earn respect by being gracious to others” (Proverbs 19:11).
“It is better to be patient than to fight; better to control your anger than conquer a city” (Proverbs 16:32).
“Love blossoms when a fault is forgiven, but those who talk about it separate friends” (Proverbs 17:9).
“Don’t make friends or go around with hot-tempered people, or you will become like them and ruin your life” (Proverbs 22:24–25).

Recommended Supplements: Anger Relief tablets (chewable), Neuro Relaxer, Cool and Calm, Vitamin B-6, Natural 5-HTP, Brain Food, Bone Density Calcium/Mag+D (calms the central nervous system) or Coral Calcium Plus and L-Carnosine (some may also need L-Taurine, Glycine and L-Glutamine (to increase alpha brain waves and reduce excitatory beta waves.

Rule out allergic reaction to food and other toxic substances such as paints, alcohol, antibacterial sprays, etc. Biofeedback and neuro-feedback with transformation of brain image training can be quite effective. If no improvement in anger management is seen after 4–6 weeks, ask your doctor to do a laboratory test for (l.c.) Kryptopyrroles (the mauve factor 94). If anger is accompanied by depression, fatigue, dementia, or another disorder, look under those headings for recommendations., look under those titles for recommendation.

Anorexia NervosaAnorexia is a disorder characterized by a distorted body image and a phobia of becoming fat. This debilitating condition usually affects teenage girls or young women. It affects about one in 200 persons in the USA. It may begin with bulimia (binging and purging syndrome). Anorexia in most instances is a brain/mind disorder and may involve hereditary susceptibility. It’s likely that the person with anorexia is depressed, conscientious, hypersensitive, shy, neat, compulsive, and given to unrealistic irrational guilt and striving for perfection..

Recommended Supplements:  Neuro Complex, GTF Chromium, Neuro Balancer (take 1 hour apart from other supplements), Women's Multivitamin or Ultimate Complete Nutritional Mix, Anorexia Nervosa Tablets, Potassium, Immune Enhancer I and Immune Enhancer II . Some anorectics may need Zinc, Ultra Vitamin K, and Advanced Gamma Vitamin E. If suffering from swollen joints (take Kidney Balance), brittle nails, dry skin, constipation, and insomnia, see recommendations for those symptoms. If the heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature are low, she or he must be given immediate medical attention. Eat five small meals high in protein. Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and sugar. (See also Bulimia.) Other recommendations at personal visit.

Anxiety - Phobias with depression, chemical and food sensitivitiesAnxiety does not indicate lack of faith, hope, love, or lack of the Holy Spirit’s work. Anxiety is complex and part of our fallen emotions. You are not alone in battling anxiety disorders. Anxiety disorders are the second most common mental health problem in the United States, second only to substance abuse. National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) statistics reveal that about 19 million Americans suffer from anxiety disorders.

Symptoms:
If your symptoms persist for six months or more, you are experiencing an anxiety disorder. Do you experience muscle tension, stress, irritability, difficulty breathing, fear, excessive worry, insomnia, excessive sweating, heart palpitation, blushing, nausea, obsessing over the “what ifs” of most things in life, a shaky voice, hot fl ashes, headaches, and other aches and pains without any apparent cause? If so, then you may be experiencing what is called Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Many different anxiety disorders are identified as: phobias, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), social anxiety, generalized free-floating anxiety, or performance anxiety.

Social Anxiety:
People with social anxiety may be reluctant to use a public restroom or eat in a restaurant; they may even drop out of school or work due to various fears. In children and adults, social anxiety resembles the avoidant personality disorder characterized by self-consciousness and timidity. They may have poor self-esteem and consider themselves unattractive or worthless. They may experience panic or freeze in church gatherings. Panic and social anxiety often are accompanied by physical symptoms such as a racing heart, muscle tension, dry mouth, a shaky voice, nausea, blushing, sweating, and difficulty breathing. An appropriate degree of anxiety or fear about real danger is normal and even healthy because it protects us from harm; but when it becomes excessive and persistent, it makes life miserable. Performance anxiety is a subtype of generalized social anxiety in which symptoms are provoked by anticipation of performing in public and often persist even during performance.

Your Brain and Anxiety:
Different areas of the brain and diverse neurotransmitters may be involved in different anxiety experiences. If you suffer from anxiety, you need to understand that your thinking needs to change. “Anxiety” derives from a Greek word meaning “to have a split mind.” For many people, changing thinking and vanquishing anxiety is greatly facilitated by taking appropriate supplements to balance brain chemistry. Treating your brain can help replace your needless anxiety with a mind set on heavenly things and thoughts that are “excellent and praiseworthy” (Read Psalm 103: 2–4; Matthew 6:26–34; Philippians 4:6–7 and Colossians 3:5).

Stay close to God and His children! He knows what’s around the next corner. Studies reveal that fifty percent of what we worry about never happens. Thirty percent focuses on circumstances beyond our control. Most of our anxieties and worries are needless. Give your concerns to God because He has promised to give us peace and protect our minds, brains and bodies in Christ Jesus. Anxiety may spur us on to think things through, put problems into perspective, and find comfort in faith and realization of God’s love. I have seen many of our Christian patients recover fully from their anxiety and panic disorders when the brain is balanced with supplements, bio-or neuro-feedback and balanced biblical thinking. The Bible says, “But the Lord is faithful; He will give you strength and protect you from the evil one” (2 Thessalonians 3:3).

Re
commended Supplements: Neuro Complex, Royal Jelly, 5HTP, Brain Food, Pure Super Enzymes Chewables, L-Theanine, Anxiety & Stress Relief (chewable tablets), GTF Chromium, Vitamin B-6, Neuro Balancer, Men’s/Women’s Utimate Multiple Vitamin, Clarimen GC (Creatine Monohydrate), Cool and Calm, Vitamin B-12, Neuro Relaxer, L-Carnosine, Natural Sleep at bedtime (if unable to sleep) and DMG. You may need Bone Density Calcium (with magnesium and Vitamin D) to raise your pyruvate level in the blood and brain. Take two Bone Density Calcium tablets 30 minutes before bed or Coral Calcium Plus. If you have experienced an adverse reaction to serotonin drugs like Zoloft, Paxil, and Prozac (SSRI’S), avoid methionine and copper. Also avoid coffee, caffeinated soft drinks, and ephedra-containing supplements or over-the-counter medications containing stimulants. Take 500–1000mg of Time-Release Ester Vitamin C or other Buffered Vitamin C.

Also, practice stress and anxiety management techniques that can change anxiety-inducing thoughts and symptoms. Deep breathing, exercise, quiet biblical meditation, trust in God, and consoling contact with loved ones and fellow pilgrims can help to reduce anxiety and worries. Reducing some of your responsibilities may help. Listen to what Jesus says. Why are you distressed about tomorrow? Don’t worry about tomorrow because each day has enough trouble of its own. Your Heavenly Father knows all your needs (Matthew 6:34a; 30c; 31a; 34b; 32b).

Arthritis (Joint Stiffness, Muscle Pain, Spasms, Bursitis)

As we age or due to diseases, structural changes occur in our joints leading to pain, loss of mobility, joint stiffening, swelling, muscle pain, and bursitis. Arthritis is not a single disease, but a general name given for many inflammatory diseases that affect all the joints, including our spine, hips and knees.

Recommended Supplements: Natural Joint Integrity is perhaps the best and safest supplement available in America for joint problems. Natural Joint Integrity’s unique combination of 25 ingredients have been shown in a clinical trial to nutritionally support healthy ligaments, tendons, bones, synovial fluid, cartilage structure and joint mobility. Regular use of Natural Joint Integrity can rebuild new cartilage, reduce pain and inflammation, and in some cases prevent or reduce deformity.

Joint Pain Relief Cream can give you pain relief. Also take a multivitamin and drink plenty of pure water. Early intervention by taking recommended supplements can help control the damage.

Adequate intake of Vitamin D, Ultra K and Brain Food (pure Omega 3) which can reduce serious joint damage should be taken daily and Royal Jelly. Avoid all refined or concentrated sugars; instead use xylitol, a natural sweetener. Eat avocados, fish, fermented soy foods such as tofu and tempeh frequently. Avoid the nightshade plants (tomatoes, potatoes, and egg-plant) which contain toxic alkaloids which deposit in joints and increase arthritic symptoms. Exercise regularly, such as moderate walking, swimming etc. Regular exposure to direct sunshine, facing the sun with eyes closed and no eyeglasses for at least ten minutes daily—may ameliorate arthritic symptoms by stimulating the pineal gland, a tiny organ deep in the center of the brain which is the master regulator of the endocrine system. Keeping your weight at the right level can help.

Autism and Asperger’s Syndrome

Asperger’s Syndrome is part of what is now called the autistic spectrum. The line between autism and Asperger’s disorder is not always clear. Asperger’s and autism should not be confused with ADHD.
