Dear Colleagues
I hope you are well. We have 2 upcoming seminars this spring. They both will cover the same material. The first seminar will be taught by my son Noah in Minneapolis and the second will be taught by Noah and myself in Dallas May 12th. Both teach our whole protocol. For people that have previously attended our class, there are many important updates since we last taught in Dallas and both the beginner and advanced practitioner in our techniques will benefit from attending. We do not plan to video either of these. We also are doing one on one seminars in our Maui and Tacoma offices. Noah will also be teaching in Kiev in late spring and we will announce details once known.
Lebowitz Protocol March 24 Seminar Minneapolis- Dr Noah Lebowitz, May 12th Dallas May 12th Dallas Drs Michael and Noah Lebowitz
This class teaches an effective, easy, and fast way to "diagnose" and treat dysbiosis (fungal, bacterial, parasitic, viral, Lyme), food reactions, lectin sensitivities, metal and chemical toxicity/sensitivity, coagulation issues, organ dysfunction, EMF issues, and much more. It is well suited to both the newcomer to the Lebowitz protocol as well as physicians who have been following Dr. Lebowitz's work for many years.
A basic ability to perform manual muscle testing is necessary to utilize these techniques. Correcting the abovementioned issues can help alleviate many symptoms, including various gastro-intestinal issues, dermatological and respiratory problems, fatigue, brain fog, headaches, inflammatory conditions, fibromyalgia, auto-immune issues, neurological symptoms, chronic musculoskeletal conditions, etc.
New techniques to help eliminate false negatives, which are very common in muscle testing, are discussed and demonstrated as well as false positives which often occur frequently in supplement testing. The class comes with a full, easy to follow, set of notes and Drs. Lebowitz are always easily accessible to answer questions you may have after you have starting implementing the material.
Dr. Michael Lebowitz (developer of the original protocol) is a prolific writer, having authored 4 books, over 60 articles, and a free monthly newsletter for over 19 years (you can subscribe and read back issues on this site). He attracts patients from around the globe and treats many professional athletes (MLB, NHL, NFL, cyclists, runners, boxers, ballet, etc.), entertainers, as well as many physicians, and everyone else. When treating and correcting dysbiosis (fungus, parasites, bacteria, virus, etc.), food sensitivities, toxic metals and chemicals, nutrient deficiencies, hormone imbalances, structural imbalances, and more, he has found that a majority of chronic and acute symptoms often resolve and the patient is restored to a better state of health.
Dr. Noah Lebowitz has been teaching with his father and on his own the last 4 years. He has a practice in Tacoma WA and specializes in patients with chronic illness. He has also treated many professional athletes including NHL, MLB, PGA, etc. players. He routinely has patients flying in from out of state, and has made house calls across the USA and to other countries.

NEW PRODUCT
We are happy to announce the newest Supreme Nutrition Products (800-922-1744) addition
Astragalus Supreme - also known as Astragalus membranaceus or Huang Qi, has been used for thousands of years in Traditional Chinese medicine for a wide range of conditions. The plant is mainly native to the north and eastern regions of China and has been labeled a “superior herb” in the 2,000-year-old classic Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing for its impressive abilities as an adaptogen and immune system restorer.
Astragalus has been studied and continues to be studied for the following actions and benefits it possesses among others:
1. Astragalus is a powerful immunostimulant showing the ability to control T-helper cells 1 and 2 while increasing macrophage, immunoglobulin and natural killer cell activity, production and function. (1) This property is the main reason Astragalus can be viewed as an excellent broad-spectrum antimicrobial herb with an emphasis on viruses and bacteria. It is the number one herb used in China for prevention and treatment of colds, the flu, and respiratory illnesses.
2. Acts as a potent anti-inflammatory due to its high concentration of saponins, flavonoids and polysaccharides.
3. It has supreme cardiovascular protective properties by lowering arterial plaque, regulating heart calcium levels, lowering blood pressure, and lowering triglyceride levels. In 2014, the Chinese Journal of Integrative Medicine stated that combining Astragalus with conventional methods increased the success of viral myocarditis treatment. Along with Dan Shen, Astragalus showed superior in the treatment of angina vs. conventional drugs. (2)
4. Astragalus is being used extensively for the treatment of diabetes due to its ability to reverse insulin resistance and protect pancreatic beta cells. The herb is being researched and used for type 1 and type 2 diabetes. (3)
5. Fibromyalgia and Adrenal/chronic fatigue are two conditions that Astragalus has showed promising results for due to its adaptogenic properties and ability to “invigorate vital energy” by strengthening the body’s resistance and constitution according to Traditional Chinese Medicine.
6. The herb has been used for thousands of years for longevity, which has now been attributed to Astragaloside IV and Cycloastragenol, two of the plants powerful saponins. These constituents activate telomerase enzymes leading to reversal of cellular damage and the slowing of aging and degenerative diseases. (4)
7. It is extremely helpful for male hormones and has been scientifically shown to increase male sperm motility, thus helping with male infertility.
8. Used in treatment of chronic asthma, Astragalus has been shown in studies to decrease airway hypersensitivity and reduce mucus production. (5)
9. Potent kidney protector shown to reduce diabetic ketoacidosis (6) and in one study preserved residual renal function in dialysis patients. People with IgA nephropathy have been shown to benefit from supplementing Astragalus.
10. Anticancer properties have been demonstrated in vitro for gastric, colon, ovarian and hepatic cancers. (10)(11)(12)(13) Furthermore, Astragalus is very affective for reducing the toxicity and side effects of chemotherapy and has been shown to enhance platinum-based chemotherapy. (8)
11. It can help methylation issues due to its folic acid, betaine and choline content.
12. Very effective in normalizing GTP in people with viral hepatitis with over 70% success rate, showing potent liver protective properties (9). The herb also inhibits herpes simplex virus 1 (7).
In conclusion, Astragalus is a powerful herb that should be considered in any immune system related case. These consist of but are not limited to chronic infection, fibromyalgia and adrenal/chronic fatigue. The herb is best used for longer periods of time due to its potent ability to build immune system and constitutional strength over time and help prevent infections in the first place. For this reason, we evaluate it on every patient.
Contraindications: Do not take this supplement if pregnant or nursing. Astragalus is contraindicated for patients on lithium and or immunosuppressant drugs.
Dosage : 1 capsule 3 times daily- references listed on our website

CASE HISTORY by Noah Lebowitz DC Tacoma WA
I saw a 12 year old boy December 6. He was brought in for ulcerative colitis that he was diagnosed with in June 2018. His last instance of blood in his stools was in September, before going on a low FODMAP diet. While on the very restrictive diet he was asymptomatic. The only "issue" which I found (they didn't bring up) was he was only having a bowel movement every 2-3 days.
I don't often get cases where a client is feeling well. In my exam I found the following vials test positive (Lebowitz Protocol Kit- AK Test Kits 970-201-7406): Babesia, BioFilm, Parasite 1, Rickettsia, Virus 2, and Worms. For foods I found: Casein, Garlic, Gliadin, Lactose, Onion, Orange. For chemicals and heavy metals I found: Chemicals and Inhalants, Dental, Industrial and Environmental 4, Aluminum, Beryllium, Lithium, Mercury, Silver, and Titanium.
In addition to the diet (off all positive testing foods) I put him on: Mimosa Supreme, Mucuna Supreme (Supreme Nutrition Products), and Magnesium Citrate (Thorne Research).
6 days after my initial exam he had a full panel of lab work, which had already been planned. In it he had no improvement from his lab work from his initial diagnosis.
He continued on my plan and came in for a re-exam on December 26 (later than I normally prefer, but school/Christmas got in the way). They commented after removing onion and garlic he experienced much less gas than before and he was now having a bowel movement every 1-2 days. In the re-exam I found the following vials positive: Babesia, Worms, Industrial and Environmental 4, Iron, Tin, Zirconium.
I added Lectin Protect to his regime and increased his Magnesium to 1x3 (vs 1x2).
He had his bloodwork run again 12/28 (22 days after his initial visit with me) and his mom wrote me:
"His ESR was a 31 before and now a 16
Calprotectin was 338 now 47
He is not anemic
Has normal kidney/liver function and electrolytes levels are normal.
These previous numbers were taken on 12/12/18 and new labs were done on 12/28/18
Ed. Note- It is interesting how quickly labs can change with treating findings

4. 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 for $1.99 on kindle at https://www.amazon.com/Body-Restoration-Owners-Manual-ebook/dp/B0050653C4/
5. Body Restoration Cookbook - This companion volume to the above book was written by Cynthia Lebowitz and is now available free online (donations accepted). A wonderful tool for your patients as it contains almost 100 recipes- most without gluten, dairy, nightshades, etc. Body Restoration Cookbook
6. God’s Preventative Medicine- my latest book. It explains how the Levitical Priests dealt with fungal dysbiosis both preventatively and treatment wise as well as the reasons behind some of the other health laws of the Torah. It is a short easy to understand book and fascinating for the student of health and the Bible God's Preventative Medicine
