Dear Colleagues:

I hope you all are well. Our 2012 DVD is available and is our best yet- both from a film quality standpoint as well as content and includes our whole protocol including our work on hypercoagulation, dysbiosis, foods, toxic metals, etc. See the last page of this newsletter for more information and ordering details.

We are still doing our one on one seminars here at the office in Grand Junction and Nov-Feb in Honolulu (again see the last page for details or our website www.michaellebowitzdc.com). It is a great opportunity to get individualized instruction on my protocols plus other topics in AK if desired as well as get treated.

CASE HISTORIES USING THE PROTOCOLS

1) From my friend Dr Kim here in Grand Junction

April 26th, 2012- Johnny is a 17 year old boy who travelled about 3 hours to see me. He was suffering from “severe stomach aches” that had been going on for 4 weeks at the time of the visit. Even small amount of foods caused severe bloating and pain over his upper abdominal area. He was barely eating any foods and nauseated easily. He also had severe sinus congestion and seasonal allergies with red, itching eyes. He is soccer player in high school and his stamina and energy had been very low. The following composite vials tested positive (AK test kits 1-888-323-0625) bacteria, rickettsia, fungus, fungus2, and mixed candida. Bacteria and rickettsia were blocked by Melia Supreme, and fungus, fungus2 and mixed candida were blocked by Schisandra Supreme (Supreme Nutrition 1-800-922-1744) and SF722 (Thorne). He also tested positive to caffeine, casein, gluten, gliadin and egg (but not albumin- AK Test kits). He promised that he would avoid all the foods above as well as sweetening and fermented foods (due to the fungal issues). The liver, adrenal and stomach neurolympathic reflexes were positive and I worked on those accordingly. Two weeks later he came back with no symptoms (no “stomach ache” and no allergies). The redness in his eyes was also gone as was the itching. I couldn't find any microbial issues on the second visit. The pollen and wheat vials were positive and he was advised to continue to stay off gluten (the other foods were re-introduced). None of the microbe vials tested positive but he still needed the previously prescribed supplements and we also added Reishi Supreme (Supreme Nutrition). He continues to do well.

2) Case history again from Dr Kim

“I have a younger brother in South Korea. He has a 7 year old daughter and her name is Seung-eun. Two months ago he called me because his daughter was diagnosed with severe FLD (Fatty liver disease). So, he asked me about diet and what else could be done to help.

My brother said her LDL was gradually decreasing but her Triglyceride level was staying very high at 365. So, I told him that she needs a very strict diet and explained why it is so important. It's non alcoholic fatty liver disease. So, I thought it's related to refined sugar consumption and omega3 deficiency. I know she eats a lot of cookies, chocolate, and candy. So, we took her off all the sugar related food and I also suggested she avoid all corn containing products and milk. I sent 3 supplements: Takesumi Supreme, Schisandra Supreme, and Reishi Supreme. I suggested the following dosages: Takesumi 2 scoops a day, Schisandra 2 caps a day, Reishi 2 caps a day. After a few weeks she repeated her blood test again.

Amazingly, on the lab test results, her triglyceride level was down from 365 to 75 (normal level is 100 to 200). Three days ago, I talked to my brother and he said all the indicators are still in the optimal range. She is doing very well. And now, his family realizes how important the supplements are. His wife is pharmacist and working for a big German pharmaceutical company. She has become a big fan of Supreme Nutrition. I think takesumi decreased all her (my niece) food sensitivities and schisandra supported the liver safely and effectively. Asians historically eat schisandra a lot. But, nowadays it's very hard to find a good quality one such as Schisandra Supreme. I don't think I can help nearly as many people without Supreme Nutrition supplements. Thank you for all your efforts and researches.

3) From Dr Brett Morgan in Charleston, WV

Hi Michael
I have a patient that I have been treating with your protocol for over two years. Major complaints were brain fog, fatigue and allergies. Over this time she has tested positive on fungus, parasites, chemicals and inhalants, solanine, dairy, gluten and others at one time or another. She has done very well, only mild allergies now, normal energy, clear head, etc. She was diagnosed with osteoporosis some time ago, but avoided taking fosomax despite a strong push from her M.D. and her husband. I had her taking Reishi Supreme, Endo Supreme, and Wild Greens Supreme (Supreme Nutrition) most recently, as well as OsCap (Thorne). She went back to her M.D. the other day and her bone scan was back into the osteopenia range and he is no longer recommending the fosomax. I immediately told her it was because of the solanine avoidance and the supplements, but she really thought that it was because she has had enough energy to be weight bearing and exercise. Either way, this is a very rewarding case. Thanks again.
Brett

1) If you get this newsletter by snail mail, please consider signing up for email instead to save us time and money. Just email us at noach2343@aol.com and let us know. We periodically drop people we haven’t heard from who get it by snail mail but we never drop you from email unless you request it.

2) For the first time in my 24 years as a member of the ICAK (International College of Applied Kinesiology), I decided I wanted to increase my involvement by running for a seat on the executive board and was elected as such.

The ICAK is a great organization for health care professionals who practice AK to be a member of. You have the opportunity to write papers that get published in their yearly proceedings- so it is a vehicle to share information with like minded people. If you choose to attend the annual meeting, you get to schmooze with a bunch of great people and learn from some of “the masters”.

Dr. Goodheart is someone we all who practice AK owe a huge debt to. Without him we would not be doing what we do. By being a member of the ICAK we get to carry on his legacy in a way he would encourage and support. There are of course yearly dues, but I believe in giving back to worthy organizations. The ICAK has ongoing research to support the legitimacy of AK, a great referral program for perspective patients, as well as lots of literature to learn from or use for patient education. If you go to their website icakusa.com you can learn about them and membership in the organization. I will be doing my best to help the organization move forward with my involvement on the board.

For existing members please feel free to contact me with any ideas or issues you would like to have addressed.

3) If you practice my protocols and have questions about patients or technique feel free to contact me by email or phone. I am happy to try to help.

Body Restoration An Owners Manual An updated and expanded version of my first book Body Mechanics published almost 30 years ago. Part 1 has a chapter on each organ/gland. Each chapter teaches basic anatomy and physiology, causes and symptoms of dysfunction, as well as simple treatments your patient can do at home to complement your treatment. Part 2 explains the role of dysbiosis, food intolerances, toxic metals, nutritional deficiencies and neurotransmitter imbalances in health.
The book is a great review for the doctor, but better yet it is a great tool to sell to your patient. It will give them a better understanding of how their body works and the causes of health and disease, as well as the rationale of why you treat the way you do. It is very pro chiropractic.

The material is the most comprehensive and the filming and editing is by far the best we have ever done. This DVD set brings you our whole protocol- of testing for and treating dysbiosis, food and metal issues, organ dysfunction, supplement needs, as well as our new work on hypercoagulation, and much more. Treating patients with this protocol will help you alleviate many musculoskeletal, gastro-intestinal, and endocrine disorders as well as many auto-immune and inflammatory conditions, headaches, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, as well as many other conditions. All you need is a basic knowledge of muscle testing to be able to utilize these techniques. The DVD is $250 and available on our website http://michaellebowitzdc.com/html/seminar.html

If you took one of our 2012 seminars in Phoenix, LA or Dallas we are discounting the DVD to attendees. Attendees should call (970-257-0311) for specific info on price and how to pay.

For those of you that want an inexpensive introduction to our work we are selling our 2010 DVD while supplies last for $80.
