Dear Colleagues
I hope you all are doing well and enjoying the summer. We have a new DC in the family: Noah Lebowitz, my son just graduated from Parker. Noah will be practicing in Scottsdale AZ beginning probably in December. He knows my work almost as well as I do, so if you need to refer to anyone in AZ he is a good choice.
If you plan to attend either our Oct 26th NYC seminar or the Nov 9th Phoenix class, we encourage you to sign up soon so we can plan for how much space we need, etc. We will be out of the country mid Sept to Oct 10th so are trying to get the planning done early. To sign up go to http://michaellebowitzdc.com/html/Seminars2014.html . It will cover our whole protocol, including some never before presented info and will be suited for beginning and advanced practitioners as long as you can do basic muscle testing. You can also sign up by calling our office 480-991-5555 (AZ multicare) and speaking to Michelle. Students must sign up by phone to qualify for student discounts.
AK test kits will be closed mid Sep-Oct 10th. You can reach Cynthia by email only during that time at Aktestkits@aol.com. I will also be available by email also. This will be our first non-working vacation in many, many years.
Case History
The following case history was presented by a great physician and friend of mine. I wouldn’t recommend trying the same treatment on random patients as the dosage he used was quite high and in some cases could prove problematic, but it was fascinating enough that I wanted to share it.
A 41 year old healthy male presented with 20 years duration of an undiagnosed skin condition. It was initially treated with antibiotics and he continued to use them off and on for years. He turned to natural healing about 13 years ago, but never truly had any significant success. The condition would come and go, never fully healing. The skin presented as dry, red, inflamed, with dozens of tiny pustules in/on the scalp (patient shaves head every 1-2 days), beard, chest and neck, with intense pruritis. He also had numerous cysts which would form very quickly and remain for weeks.
Testing revealed weakness with mixed fungus and biofilm vials (AK test kits 970-201-7406). Bfb 2 negated the biofilm and fungus findings. Smilax Supreme, Thera Supreme, and Alaria Supreme also strengthened a weak indicator muscle. Testing revealed a sensitivity to corn.
The patient has followed a paleo type organic diet for many years. A yeast free and corn free diet was recommended. The patient was directed to use Bfb2 in the recommended way, with one drop on the ear lobe, finger, and big toe bilaterally, as well as Smilax Supreme, Thera Supreme, and Alaria Supreme (Supreme Nutrition 1-800-922-1744).
The patient was rechecked one week later, with no change. At this point we tried something new. Bfb2 was used more as a topical, using 15-20 drops to cover the entire face, scalp, neck, and upper chest. It should be noted that the patient was also using an oil based cleanser/moisturizer as well. No other changes were made to his protocol. He continued taking Smilax Supreme, Thera Supreme, and Alaria Supreme.
Within 2 days of starting this protocol the patient noted a decrease in redness and pruritis. Within 4 days his skin was clear by about 80%. He stated this is the best he has felt and looked in over a year. He will be rechecked in one week.
Dr L’s comment. The BFB’s are also strongly antimicrobial so were they killing microbes embedded in the hair follicles or were they working to degrade biofilms? It is hard to say. I personally have used higher doses of the BFB’s (like the dosage used in this case history) but there is a minority of people who react strongly to them presumably because of their ability to degrade biofilms. Thus we also build up dosage very slowly. The reason we have recommended placement on the thumb, big toe and ear lobe is based on similar type therapies utilized by the Levitical priests to keep well despite their heavy exposure to animal blood and microbes working without gloves etc. I am currently working on a small book that deals with some of the therapies they utilized, etc. In specialized cases like the one above application on other parts of the body may be a better usage though we have seen resolution of various ailments quite far on the body from application sites due to the high absorbability of essential oils.
Unsolicited Testimony on Morinda Supreme
Astounding results with Morinda Supreme!! We had bats above our ceiling a few years ago. We had them professionally eliminated but they have been in there for a long while along with lots of bat guano. He said it sometimes takes a couple years for the smell to disappear. The odor finally weakened a bit. But now there is a really strong smell again in a hallway off the living room. We get a good breeze blowing it through the house in the summer. All of a sudden I got horribly sick with a systemic fungal infection, and a very puzzling effect of excruciating pain in my lower back. I could barely move, or sleep. I never experienced anything so awful before. I had this for 5 days and then ordered Morinda Supreme and have been taking it. Thank the Lord in 24 hours I am 90% better.
I think I had Histopasmosis, the fungal disease from bat guano, and a previous serious illness from mold exposure over years. Mid American Marketing recommended Morinda Supreme when I was ordering Coconut oil. Wow, I got well fast even though I suffer from multiple chemical sensitivity.
Thank you so much!!

5. 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 recommend 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. It is available on kindle at http://www.amazon.com/Body-Restoration-Owners-Manual-ebook/dp/B0050653C4/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1353354004&sr=1-1 If you don’t have a kindle http://bodyrestorationanownersmanual.com/html/Order.html and we will send you a PDF form.
