Book Description

"This book is a revolution! It goes way beyond the beliefs that have fueled modern pharmaceutical medicine for decades and gives you all the science you'll ever need to prove that there is another way." - Christiane Northrup, M.D., New York Times bestselling author of Goddesses Never Age Modern medicine and human health are at a critical crossroads, and the truth is that you and not your genes are in the driver's seat. You are the one who gets to make informed decisions on how you use and nourish the evolutionary miracle that is your body. Combining analysis of cutting-edge scientific findings with our deepest ancestral wisdom and health-promoting practices, Sayer Ji, founder of GreenMedInfo, offers a time-tested program to help prevent and manage the most common health afflictions of our day-cancer, heart disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic syndrome. Antiquated thinking and scientific dogma have long obstructed our understanding of our innate untapped potential for self-regeneration and radical healing. But the New Biology explains why biological time is not a downward spiral and how chronic illness is not inevitable when you implement nature's resiliency tools. In his thorough and thoughtful exploration of the New Biology, Sayer Ji illuminates: the fascinating new science of food as information the truth about cancer and heart disease screening and what real prevention looks like how to reverse the most common forms of degeneration using food-based approaches how the body extracts energy from sources other than food, including water and melanin; and how to make sense of conflicting dietary recommendations and out-of-date food philosophies Encoded within every tissue of your body is your ability to regenerate. Unlock your radical resiliency through this roadmap for diet, exercise, stress reduction, and the cultivation of the environment in which you choose to live.

Book Description

Functional Inflammology: Volume 1 is the culmination of several thousand research publications combined with Dr Vasquez's many years of clinical experience and teaching graduate-level students and doctorate-level clinicians worldwide. With radiographs, photos, acronyms, illustrations, flowcharts, and detailed-yet-simplifying explanations, Dr Vasquez makes it easier than ever for clinicians to grasp important concepts in integrative care and functional medicine and then to translate the basic science research and molecular biology into treatment plans that can be explained and used in "the real world" of clinical practice with patients. The associated video tutorials and recorded live conference presentations further help students and clinicians "get it" via Dr Vasquez's effective teaching style which embraces complexity while always emphasizing clinical applicability and psychosocial context. The Inflammation Mastery & Functional Inflammology series of books and videos translates important concepts and nutritional/biomedical science into easy and practical clinical applications for the prevention and treatment of disorders of sustained inflammation, which Dr Vasquez describes as "patterns of metabolic disturbance and inflammatory dysfunction" existing in three sequential and overlapping categories: 1) metabolic inflammation, 2) allergic inflammation, 3) autoimmune inflammation. This book includes access to video presentations which introduce the origin and components of the Functional Inflammology Protocol and FINDSEX(r) acronym. Post-publication updates to this information and important social and clinical contextualization are made available in videos and online repositories (access provided in the book), and the e-newsletter available from InflammationMastery and FunctionalInflammology.com. This textbook also provides access, via reprints or hyperlinks, to Dr Vasquez's published articles-an example of which is his recent paradigm-shifting editorial published in the journal Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine (2014 January). The updated section on pain management allows students and clinicians to understand and apply manual, pharmacologic, nutritional and botanical medicine treatments for musculoskeletal pain, thereby providing better relief for patients and avoiding the hazards of NSAIDs, coxibs, steroids, opioids, immunosuppressants/immunoparalytics and biologics. Written with a modicum of style and humor, the paradigm-shifting revelations and plethora of clinical pearls are punctuated by biochemical insights and inconvenient political-environmental truths. In sum, Dr Vasquez's latest literary laxative disimpacts the dogma, shibboleths, and intellectual inertia that have held clinical medicine in a state of pathocentric pharmacodependent constipation for far too long; authentic long-awaited relief is now available for thousands of doctors and millions of patients.

Book Description

Milk is nature’s most complete food, and dairy products are considered to be the most nutritious foods of all. The traditional view of the role of milk has been greatly expanded in recent years beyond the horizon of nutritional subsistence of infants: it is now recognized to be more than a source of nutrients for the healthy growth of children and nourishment of adult humans. Alongside its major proteins (casein and whey), milk contains biologically active compounds, which have important physiological and biochemical functions and significant impacts upon human metabolism, nutrition and health. Many of these compounds have been proven to have beneficial effects on human nutrition and health. This comprehensive reference is the first to address such a wide range of topics related to milk production and human health, including: mammary secretion, production, sanitation, quality standards and chemistry, as well as nutrition, milk allergies, lactose intolerance, and the bioactive and therapeutic compounds found in milk. In addition to cow’s milk, the book also covers the milk of non-bovine dairy species which is of economic importance around the world. The Editors have assembled a team of internationally renowned experts to contribute to this exhaustive volume which will be essential reading for dairy scientists, nutritionists, food scientists, allergy specialists and health professionals.

It encompasses Alex’s courageous journey back to health as well as those of many other individuals and the non-traditional practitioners who helped them. The book is filled with the wisdom and perspective required to make 100 the New 30 and achieve Youthful Longevity!” – Jeffrey Gladden, MD author of 100 IS THE NEW 30: How Playing the Symphony of Longevity will Enable us to Live Young for a Lifetime. “As a physician who practiced general internal medicine for over 30 years and was among the first in the U.S. to form a concierge medical practice, I have always valued an open-minded, "holistic” and personalized approach to patient care. Alex Lubarsky's 'Youthful Longevity' not only aligns perfectly with this philosophy but is deeply enriched by his personal journey. His experiences have fueled a passionate drive for a paradigm shift in healthcare, advocating for a system prioritizing authentic wellness rather than sick care. Alex's work offers a profound understanding of how we can achieve optimal health and longevity and am thankful that he decided to share his wisdom and experience.” - Charles F.
