Toxic metals are not biodegradable and will stay in a biological system for a very, very long time, altering cellular function and leading to all and every chronic disease known to mankind. Metals last forever, which is why we name the great cycles of time after them, hence the Iron Age, the Bronze Age, the Silver Age, and the Golden Age. Toxic metals enter the cells via a process called Ionic Mimicry and Molecular Mimicry. This means they are very similar to the nutrient minerals in size and charge and will hitch a ride on those transport proteins that allow them entry into the cells. For exa ..read more

Copper is a very important essential trace mineral, but like anything, too much can be deadly, especially when we understand that copper is the most electrical nutrient mineral in human physiology. This is why caution should apply when we supplement with copper because it has the potential, through the Fenton Harber Weiss chemistry, to produce hydroxyl radicals that will destroy the cells at an alarming clip; that is no joke! For example, in the mid-late 1800s, in a small Indian village that heated their milk in copper utensils and fed it to their young children. As a result, the copper was bo ..read more

Most of the world today is walking around with marginal subtle zinc deficiencies—and the zinc deficiencies are never detected on your typical lab tests. When we use serial hair tissue mineral analysis, over time they will reveal the zinc deficiency. Most adults today are in a sympathetic dominant pattern, which means they will never detox, and this is indicated on the lab tests of most of my patients. Most adults are poor eliminators, so they retain toxic metals instead of eliminating them. Why? Most adults in our population have kidney congestion which means the microtubules in the kidneys ar ..read more

Zinc plays a crucial role in our overall health, yet many people are unaware of its significance. Watch this video to discover why zinc deficiency is a widespread issue affecting people of all ages and learn about the symptoms and potential health consequences of not having enough zinc in your body. From its essential role in supporting a healthy immune system to aiding in wound healing, skin health, and even cognitive function, zinc is a mineral that should not be underestimated. Various factors contribute to zinc deficiency in today's world, including dietary habits, lifestyle choices, and t ..read more

Most people on Earth are deficient in ZINC. Interview with Dr. Robert Selig and Matt Blackburn. In this interview, Dr. Robert Selig discusses how heavy metals affect zinc status, how it regulates pH, what percent of proteins in the human body are dependent upon zinc, which two minerals regulate the DNA auditing system, why a blood test isn't accurate for accessing zinc status, the ideal zinc to copper ratio, what happens when you supplement copper with estrogen dominance, the role of coffee enemas and sauna therapy, why he likes the niacin flush, the role of molybdenum, and a whole lot more ..read more

Watch this short video to learn more about my favorite zinc-dependent metalloenzyme—Carbonic Anhydrase—which gives us carbonic acid and much more—Dr. Robert Selig HIGHLIGHTS Carbonic anhydrase balances out hydrogen, bicarb, and carbon dioxide in the body by allowing carbon dioxide to transform into carbonic acid in the blood stream which removes the carbon dioxide from all the tissues of your body. Zinc is your “alkaline mineral” because of this process. Carbonic acid finds its way to the stomach and leaves you with bicarb and a hydrogen ion. The bicarb goes back into the blood in exchange for ..read more

Estrogen dominance means an imbalance of copper which affects the entire body’s mineral matrix. This is truly what is plaguing our population today. Minerals are responsible for energy production, making hormones, nerve transmission, and essentially creating our entire structure. Minerals are the spark plugs of life. When our minerals become imbalanced and are dominated by copper and estrogen, our entire mineral matrix and biochemistry are severely affected. Copper is a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde mineral because when it behaves badly, it becomes one of the most electronegative minerals on the per ..read more

HCL therapy, hydrochloric acid therapy, has been used very successfully in the 1920s and 30s in the pre-antibiotic era. It was pioneered by Walter Guy, M.D., and Burr Ferguson, M.D. They were actually World War 1 doctors in the trenches, and they saw some of the most horrendous infections that one could see, and they experienced some of the worst septic wounds ever. They used HCL therapy by injecting HCL diluted into the wound with remarkable cures. Hydrochloric acid injections stimulate phagocytosis. Phagocytosis turns on the macrophages to clean up the debris and dead cells in the lymph. Whe ..read more

If you’ve been my patient for awhile, you have probably heard me harp on about the importance of keeping your blood sugar in-check in order to foster a healing. However, I’m here to remind you again about the importance of blood sugar because it is just THAT important. As soon as your blood sugar is destabilized, the body turns off its healing mechanisms and spends its energy bringing your body back to homeostasis. This can take hours depending on how severely your blood sugar was spiked. This will hopefully make you think twice next time you have a doughnut craving on Sunday morning. First of ..read more

  When the alarm rings, that is the warning light to check the engine. Meaning, it is your chance to address your liver/gallbladder on how and why your bile has become stagnant. Stagnation of bile flow did not happen overnight, and in time eventually, it will set the stage for your bile to calcify, creating the great stones clogging up your gallbladder and ducts, hence the attack. Would it not be more profitable to understand why your bile is precipitating out of solution creating the stones that send you to the ER. Remember, 98-99% of the time, your gallbladder will not perforate tear o ..read more
