Healthy Protocols
How to Use the Healthy Protocols Web Site
The simple primal act of getting LOTS of the
high noon sun on your bare “unprotected” skin in large amounts just may be the
most important single thing you can do for your health. If the sun casts a shadow longer than
you are tall you cannot make adequate vitamin D from the sun. You MUST take
vitamin D3 at the daily rate of about 1000 IU/20 pounds of body weight.
“When it comes to health, we try the easiest stuff first. Doctor
appointments, tests, MRI, procedures, drugs, and more drugs - sometimes even
surgery. All the things that THEY do - anything that doesn't require our
participation.
The comforting illusion that we're doing something about our
problem by letting somebody else do it. After a while, when all this has failed, a little light goes on -
for some. And that's the idea that these guys really don't know what they're
doing. And that
if you're going to stop this downward spiral, it'll be totally
100% up to you.” The Doctor Within
Healthy Protocols
This web site started as an
idea I had about sharing some of my healthy habits developed, researched, rationalized, reworked and refined over a lifetime. It
all seems to fit together. I am hoping after you study each piece it will fit
together for you also.
You will need to modify many of these healthy
habits to fit YOUR unique requirements.
Build Your own Health
"Ultimately making beneficial changes
in your life will be the key to long term success. Nurture health rather than
fight disease." Doctor Harlan Bieley
MD
This
web site is intended to supply you with a template such that you can construct
your personalized set of health protocols. I show you the medical
evidence that suggests healthy ways to view most of the key medical and health related topics and to take action on
those views. This is where the protocols come in. A protocol is a standardized
way to approach a topic, for example as you will see the evidence is
overwhelmingly in support of NEVER drinking a single soft drink or eating a
single doughnut.
Easy to say hard to do? Not really once you see the thousands of pieces of
evidence and view it from many hundreds of angles provided by the diverse protocols.
Reading the Research Quotes
Most protocols will begin with a series of quotes from medical
professionals. These quotes apply to the protocol, sometimes in ways not so
apparent at first glance. Some presuppose a little technical medical knowledge
on your part. Believe it or not after a few hours reading this research and
the underlying physiology often contained in the protocol, you will begin to
understand a lot of the underlying medicine. Its not rocket science; only
basic human physiology and often simple
science.
My tendency was to skip the research paragraphs
and get to the "meat" of an article. It took me some time to slow down and
imbibe the research which often posits a simple observed fact representing
many years of work by a team of a half dozen or so highly trained people.
Its powerful stuff. Reading the research helps you form good habits; then it
reinforces the execution of these good habits. There are for example
hundreds of quotes testifying to the destructive nature of refined sugar;
after reading them a few dozen times over the decades it has become VERY
difficult for me to add a gram of sugar to ANYTHING! In my house it
would be impossible for there is no refined
sugar.
If something seems too involved just pass it by; the second time
through it will make more sense. These research paragraphs are intended to
be read many times. After many months you will string several quotes
together and a light will go on for you and some murky concept will become
crystal clear in a flash. I have made untold numbers of breakthroughs in
this manner.
You will come to realize at its
irreducible core good health practices are nothing other than logic as applied to
human physiology.
Start Anywhere, End Everywhere
"To learn how to fix your brain you are
going have to learn to accept a radically new way of thinking about health - one
that most doctors today still struggle to understand. The crux of it is embodied
in a single truth. Everything is connected."
Doctor Mark Hyman MD
To function well you will need to make sure everything is functioning
well. The good part is this is not too difficult. You will need to put some
academic effort into it. But the payoffs are grand and continuous. You will
be well rewarded for your efforts. You will notice most key protocols are
hyperlinked to other protocols; sometimes to many dozens of other protocols.
This is how your body operates. Hey if your body can accomplish this
effortlessly your brain can follow along. Think about that one; your brain
thinking about its operation.
IMO Information is 80% of Health
This may seem as self-serving for a web site providing health
information but it is none the less true IMO. In today's complex world you can be
far healthier understanding most of the simple things required and
required to avoid
for your good health than having access to all the high tech, often
dangerous, health medical
gizmos and expensive "medical care" while remaining ignorant of the true
basis of your health. This goes in duplicate for the often
expensive, toxic
and contraindicated drugs being foisted on the medically ignorant patient
and their at times medically ignorant doctors alike.
For example
as you will see
with
osteoporosis, osteoporosis is a
lifestyle "disease" of a lack of
information. You can "cure" this lifestyle with a dozen
or so hours of research. Its
just that simple.
For another example
SUGAR DIABETES is a lifestyle "disease" of a lack of
information. You can "cure" this lifestyle with a dozen
or two hours of research.
After a some serious research and a cancer free life
you will know what
Cancer is.
Once You Learn What to DO, DO IT!
All this academic knowledge will do your body little good unless it is
coupled with the physical actions this knowledge dictates. A good habit is to print
out an involved protocol and take it on a long walk. On your walk formulate
a plan and since your plan will HAVE to involve
exercise you are implementing your plan from hour one.
YOUR
Good Health is YOURS for the Taking
"Be your own doctor most of the time."
Doctor Bob Martin
The simple truth is all that is
required for YOUR
good health most of the time, is for YOU to work with
YOUR body, not against it. We show you many,
inexpensive,
usually easy, relatively painless, the "pain" is often a little sweat, ways to do this.
Your Body is in Charge
We tend to abuse our bodies in
many ways. Just remember your body decides when it is time for you to go to
the hospital, how long you will remain in the hospital and IF you will walk
out or be wheeled out of the hospital. Of course abuse your poor body enough and it can do things
to you we do not want to discuss. Your body can also often put you on top of
the world. Which body do YOU want? Your body wants to put you on top
of the world.
Your Body is in Charge
IMO make your body your best
friend. This means you are going to have to start living for the BOTH
of you. A healthy schizophrenic approach to dealing with
your body is in order IMO. Ninety nine times out of one hundred when someone
screws up it will be shortsighted you and not your faithful body.
