Interesting view, by the way Dwight C. Lundell, M.D. lost medical license in 2008, I would like to know why..............

Been on Lipitor for a few years now.
Doc changed me to Crestor recently, had to stop. they are utter poison. Months later, my kidneys still feel very sore. Scattered my thought processes and memory went to hell.

I managed to up my reading from 4 to over 7 in 12 months. Given that I don't drink or smoke, it's either genetics or what I have been shoving in my gob. Going with the gob because I have stacked on the weight too. Buckets of it.

On dads side, my grandfather died at 50 and my aunty died at 40 from heart attacks.

The advice I got recently was 'just eat like your grandparents used to'. That is, buy fresh and often and avoid anything that comes out of a package. I'm on that and no junk food at all. Also juice up all meals for a week or so, got that idea after watching a video of that Aussie bloke who got off all his meds by periodically juicing fruit and veg.

Proof will be in the pudding next month when I get bloods done again.

How interesting....

A Skeptical Look at Dwight Lundell, M.D.

Justin, what have made me suspicious is that he come with a controversial book and then he start promoting RealW8 a product in which he have financial interests.
Perhaps I am to cautious but then again we cannot replace our health very easy

Yes, I see it as interesting... that the good Doctor was lousy at record-keeping, and could'nt organise a piggy-bank, let alone a business (totally differant from the practice of Medicine) or his personal finances.

Quackwatch is playing the man, not his research/conclusions which are held my other doctors etc.. - and concludes with a personal opinion, delivered as authoritive. I see no reason to give that 'critic' any credence...

Remember, Dr Semmelweis was driven to insanity by his medical colleagues... because he upset the 'Establishment'

- see here for an easily digestible (!) summary.

No, you're not being too cautious... your health is too valuable to be left in the hands of Big Business or incompetant governments.
- Remember, that ALL experts were ignorant in their field, until they started learning. If they can learn, so can you... no matter how long it takes.

Doctors are often uncomfortable with a patient who asks too many questions... imagine how they feel if one or more of their own goes against the herd !

As I just find out, Dr Dwight C. Lundell was de-registered because mal practice and not because his financial skills
