DIABETES DOGPILE: Disease’s Misfortunes Continue With Charge Against Avandia (Guests in EDT and PDT)
According to the National Institutes of Health, diabetes is one of the worst diseases afflicting Americans, ranking as the seventh-leading cause of death and responsible for a multitude of other health problems, from heart disease and blindness, to kidney failure, runaway infections and more.
Worse yet, there is the trend line, parallel to our lazy, sugary-fat cultural evolution, that has the number of reported cases doubling in the past decade (up from 4.8 to 9.1 per 1,000 people).
And now this. A national medical advisory board last Wednesday recommended that the diabetes drug, Avandia, either be pulled from the market, or sold under heavy restrictions, because of studies that have found it increases the risk of heart attack . . . Not to mention, there are accusations of the drug company withholding drug safety information from the public.
But wait. Some medical experts believe the Avandia debate is more of a tragic diversion than an exacerbating misfortune—because the solution to diabetes, like other common, but serious, health issues, isn’t necessarily found behind the counter.
Two of these experts are available to conduct interviews on this very timely issue. You can call Special Guests to book them individually, or together as a dynamic guest panel.
Dr. Boris Schwartz, N.M.D., founder of Original Health Institute, has been successfully treating patients through his methods of naturopathic medicine for decades.
Like many physicians who believe in the body’s natural healing abilities, Schwartz points out that drugs like Avandia, per the manufacturers themselves, have been developed to “control,” not “cure” their target disease, leaving the patient at the mercy of the drug, as well as the disorder.
As a guest on your show, Schwartz can introduce your audience—which, no doubt, by the percentages, includes Type 1s and 2s—to the notion that diabetes can be effectively treated using the body’s inherent ability to heal.
Meanwhile, Dr. George McDermott is a medical researcher, inventor and author, who has developed an innovative treatment for a variety of diseases, including diabetes, based largely on his extensive studies of Eastern medicine.
The device is an ingeniously simple footbath called the BioClenzer that performs based on McDermott’s observations regarding the electrical nature of the functioning human body.
Like Schwartz, McDermott can drill down more deeply into the diabetes crisis and comment on the Avandia dilemma. Plus, he can explain the science behind his BioClenzer that presents a real path out of the diabetes trap.
