*Nearly every country in the world gives IV antibiotics for appendicitis and it resolves 80-90% of the time without surgery. The United States' standard of care is surgery. Period.

*Dr. Jen has experienced appendicitis 3 times and managed it naturally with LOTS of Immune Boost, probiotics and liquid/powdered vitamin C complex....and peppermint oil topically for pain. She coached her brother who had appendicitis and ended up in the hospital. He refused surgery - so they made him lie there for NINE hours without any treatment. He pushed hard and got a bag of antibiotics, left the hospital AMA and was on a plane 2 days later for his delayed vacation to Mexico. A little Reposado killed off the rest of the bacteria. (All joking aside, sometimes surgery is necessary, but it's the exception.)

*New research shows the appendix holds over 200 million neurons, more than the spinal cord, and serves as a microbial safe house, boosting gut and brain health. Once thought useless, it’s now seen as vital to immunity, digestion, and the gut-brain connection.

It's ALL about frequencies! Whether it's 5G or healing frequencies of music, you are being impacted. We love our frequency machine!

Researchers found that Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 destroyed 20% of cancer cells in lab tests:

Scientists at the Instituto de Biofísica Carlos Chagas Filho, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, are exploring whether music could play a role in cancer treatment.

Led by Dr. Márcia Alves Marques Capella, the team exposed both healthy and cancerous cell cultures to different music genres. Remarkably, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5 destroyed about 20% of cancer cells in just a few days, while leaving healthy cells unaffected. A similar effect was observed with György Ligeti’s Atmosphères, though Mozart’s Sonata for Two Pianos showed no measurable impact.

The exact mechanism behind these effects remains unknown, but researchers speculate that rhythm, frequency, or intensity could be key factors. Further experiments, are planned to uncover more about this intriguing phenomenon.

Though we’re far from replacing chemotherapy with a symphony orchestra, this study adds to growing evidence that music has real biological effects on the body.

We warn patients ALL OF THE TIME to weigh the risks vs. the benefits of ANY procedure.

A new study suggests why some patients experience severe side effects after MRI scans using gadolinium-based contrast dyes. Researchers found that gadolinium can detach from its dye and bind with oxalic acid a compound found in spinach, chocolate, almonds, and vitamin C supplements. These compounds may accumulate in organs, increasing risks of symptoms like itching, headaches, or even serious conditions like nephrogenic systemic fibrosis. Since oxalic acid also contributes to kidney stones, avoiding high-oxalate foods and vitamin C before MRI scans may reduce side effects. This discovery could improve patient safety guidelines and transform diagnostic imaging protocols.

As most of you know now, Dr. Jen has sustained a significant shoulder injury and will be out of the office for the foreseeable future. She is taking her supplements 3x/day, taking BPC-157 in a form that can actually be absorbed, Celluma 2-3x/day (she's used this red/blue/near-infrared light for nearly 20 years), acupuncture with stim, dry needling, chiropractic adjusting, frequency machine, essential oils, K-tape, etc.... There has been some improvement over the last few weeks, but this is slow and not steady. She has a great team of practitioners supporting her, including Dr. Ada and Dr. Kyle. Thank you for your outpouring of good wishes, prayers and cards. 💜

Cranberry & Recurrent UTIs

Recently The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, reported on the efficacy of supplementing with whole cranberry fruit powder for women with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). 150 women with a history of recurrent UTIs, defined as ≥ 3 UTIs in the last year or ≥ 2 UTIs in the last 6 months (but excluding women with > 5 within 6 months), received one daily capsule of either placebo or 500 mg whole cranberry powder. Urine cultures were performed at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and any time a woman presented with symptoms of a UTI.

At 6 months, the whole cranberry extract reduced culture-confirmed UTIs by 52% compared to placebo. Additionally, E. coli was the most frequently detected uropathogenic species in UTIs, and its incidence was also reduced by 51% among women taking cranberry extract. UTIs with symptoms of frequency and urgency were reduced by 71%, with a 59% reduction in the mean total number of UTIs per participant. There was no difference between groups regarding safety outcomes, with no serious adverse events reported.

We use Cranberry Complex which is a combination of cranberry and other herbs which support the urinary tract. Most of our patients have commented that the discomfort from a UTI is greatly or completely relieved within 30-60 minutes from taking this supplement, often with Golden Seal from MediHerb. It is prudent to take the combo - generally 2-3 tablets of each 2x/day for 10 days. Repeat urinalysis confirms that most women and men have complete resolution of a UTI without the use of antibiotics that often cause a secondary yeast infection.

A recent study found an increased risk of developing nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) in individuals taking Ozempic. NAION is an eye condition caused by decreased blood supply to the optic nerve. It causes SUDDEN, painless VISION LOSS in one eye with irreparable damage to the nerve and impacts the eye’s connection to the brain.

According to the Mass Eye and Ear study, the percentage of patients received a NAION diagnosis:
- 8.9% of diabetic patients taking semaglutide
- 1.8% of diabetic patients taking other medications
- 6.7% of overweight or obese patients taking semaglutide
- 0.8% of overweight or obese patients taking other medications

Patients with diabetes who took semaglutide were more than FOUR TIMES more likely to develop NAION than those on other medications.

Patients who were obese and took semaglutide were more than EIGHT TIMES more likely to develop NAION than those on other medications.
