Dear Colleagues;
I hope you are well. We had a very successful ICAK Winter Meeting in Honolulu in January. We hope to bring this back as a yearly event though we do not know where next years will be.
Noah will be teaching our entire protocol in Portland, OR on March 12th and London, England May 14th and we will be teaching together April 23rd in Denver (those should be our only seminars before the fall except for one on one individualized seminars we are happy teach here on Maui). They will include our whole protocol.
In Denver I will be presenting 4 new food toxin tests that I have been doing (one appears to correlate well with osteopenia/osteoporosis in older women). All 3 classes will teach our protocols for dysbiosis, foods, hypercoagulation, toxic metals, etc. as well as proper supplementation (traditional AK supplement testing unfortunately can yield many false negatives and positives). For more info or to register go to www.michaellebowitzdc.com.
In July at the ICAK-USA meeting in Scottsdale Noah and I will be presenting 2 -1 hour classes (one on this past years research and one on a fascinating study I’ve been doing based on a variation of a decades old AK test). Noah will also be presenting at the ICAK International meeting in Montreal).
We have 2 new supreme products we will be announcing over the next few months also.
Case History- by Michael Lebowitz DC
Samuel is a 48-year-old male, who travels worldwide frequently. He has suffered from daily migraines for “as long as I remember” as well as low energy, bloating. Taking a combination of sumatriptan and alleve can bring temporary relief. They interfere with both his work and play. On testing he showed inhibition on the following vials (Lebowitz protocol kit Protocol Kit): Fungus 3, worms, virus 3, virus +4, gliadin, casein, caffeine. We had him avoid those (including all sweeteners and ferments) and supplemented with Melia, Scutellaria, and Vidanga (all Supreme Nutrition Products). He didn’t reschedule due to travel plans but finally returned 4 months later. Samuel reported he only had 2 mild migraines in the past 4 months- both being when he when he cheated tho in general he was able to reintroduce some of the foods. Also, when asked about his energy level he said it was ‘great’ and his bloating was gone. On this visit he tested clear on the kit and did not need any supplements. A very satisfying, fast responding case.
Some AK And other tidbits
When I am testing muscles in an injured or symptomatic area, I have been testing them the “normal” way I learned from Walther and Beardall but also testing them in maximum contraction. I find when testing in maximum contraction many muscles that were “normal” when testing in the Beardall/Walther fashion showed positive this way. Correcting the muscle while in this position has brought good results. I frequently use the origin-insertion technique.
A few years ago, Noah and I wrote a paper on oxalates with a novel way of testing them. This has helped many become pain free. The paper along with many others is available in the research papers section of my website. We are in the middle of reading Sally Norton’s new book Toxic Superfoods which really brings much more understanding of oxalates and their role in human disease. I recommend reading her work if this topic interests you.
This month’s newsletter will be short due to time constraints. See you next month.
MATERIALS AVAILABLE FROM DR. MICHAEL LEBOWITZ
1 Lebowitz Protocol June 2022 Seminar on Vimeo - Professionally filmed in 4K in the office
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 above mentioned 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 is always easily accessible to answer questions you may have after you have started implementing the material.
This is the most in-depth, as well as the highest quality, seminar we have ever recorded.
In addition to the seminar itself we have a 15 minute recording of Dr. Michael Lebowitz taking a new patient history. We also have a 25 minute video on what to expect on a follow-up visit and how to approach continued care.
2. Personal Seminars with Dr. Lebowitz: Dr. Lebowitz teaches seminars to one or two doctors at a time at his office on Maui. This is probably the best way to learn our protocols with a personalized, hands on experience. Cost is $400 per physician and the class runs 9AM-4PM. For more info or to schedule call us at 970-623-9565. Noah Lebowitz DC is also available to teach the class (and sometimes you get us both).
3. Test Kits for Dr. Lebowitz protocol - Call Cynthia at AK Test Kits 970 201-7406 or see our website http://www.michaellebowitzdc.com for more details. These kits will greatly simplify and speed up your testing making you more efficient and accurate in patient assessment. These are “diagnostic kits”. Supplement kits are ordered directly from Supreme Nutrition 1-800-922-1744. In our protocol we typically use the protocol kit, biofilm kit and food kit A. Other kits as needed.
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- 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
