The series also explores what the Integrative approach from Org...

EPISODE 73 Title: Exploring Research Showing the Power of Adult Stem Cells We dive into an exciting item from the New England Journal of Medicine that shares research done on adult stem cells and their role in helping with cardiovascular illness. Even though the research is a few years old, it is still providing excellent evidence toward an understanding of how powerful this healing system of our body is. Join us!

EPISODE 72 Title: New Treatments for Neuropathy: Take Control of Your Pain! Neuropathy is a condition in which the peripheral nerves in the body become damaged. Multiple conditions, such as diabetes, chemotherapy treatments for cancer, or infections (e.g., shingles), can lead to neuropathy. Peripheral neuropathy can be acute or chronic and affects the feet, hands, legs, arms, and even the neck and face. You must consult medical experts when dealing with a complex problem like neuropathy...

EPISODE 71 Title: Treating Wounds With Low-Level Electrical Therapy: New Research People suffering from chronic non-healing wounds are usually recommended exercises by their doctor or physiotherapist to strengthen muscles and improve circulation, which are vital for a healthy recovery. A new study suggests that low-level electrostimulation therapy could also be used to treat such wounds, as this therapy has previously been shown to increase metabolic functioning in treated tissues through ...

EPISODE 70 Title: Mammogram? No Thanks! At Least, the Swiss Think So. The Swiss Medical Board is stirring things up. We know – they’re supposed to be neutral, right down the middle. They take a neutral approach. Not, however, when the subject is mammograms. In an issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, the Swiss step squarely into the “no” category when it comes to the use of mammograms. Their concern is rooted in the review of the literature and studies surrounding the procedure....

EPISODE 69 Title: Why Radioactive Isotopes Surround Us: And What You Can Do To Protect Yourself Look ma! I’m glowing! It’s our worst nightmare. Radioactive clouds from some nearby damaged Nuclear plant singe our defenseless bodies, and we grow a third eye like those fish on The Simpsons. Don’t tell us this thought never crossed your mind. We know better. The real issue? We don’t need to live nearby for radiation from an event like Fukushima to affect us. As one Canadian high school s...

EPISODE 68 Title: Retinitis Pigmentosa Treatment Now! Part 3 of 3: There is Hope for Sight Hope. Boy, do we need it these days, especially with the challenges we face? As we’ve discussed, a lack of hope—when it comes to eye disease—plays a significant role in one's ability to work with and overcome the effects these diseases can have. It creates despair, which works against any kind of healing. It darkens the world, adding a burden to what the person already carries. When we say Hope, w...

EPISODE 67 - Part 2 of 3 Title: Retinitis Pigmentosa Treatment Now! Part 2 of 3: When You Limit Your Mind, You Limit Possibility The mind is powerful. It can be the source of our strength and our demise – sometimes all in the same day. The power of suggestion or a certain message can have a great impact, especially if that message repeats itself repeatedly. If a negative “I’m not worth anything” message repeats itself in your mind – and is repeated by others in your life – then this messag...

EPISODE 66 - 1 OF 3 Title: Retinitis Pigmentosa Treatment Now! Part 1 of 3: Your Genes Are Not Your Destiny Serious eye disease is well…serious. For many with these conditions, the message is one of no hope and few options for lasting treatment. Thirty years ago, this message bothered Grace Halloran, who felt that something could be done if you looked closely at the problem. She did just that, and now we have a program many use to reverse their eye disease. So there is hope, after all. ...

EPISODE 65 Title Microcurrent Therapy: A Powerful Therapy That's Here For You Today Have you heard of Microcurrent Stimulation therapy? For the last thirty years, Microcurrent Stimulation therapy has proven to be a powerful tool in physical therapy. In 1985, Robert Becker, M.D., in the book The Body Electric, used microcurrent stimulation to regrow the limbs of rats. Yes, rats! We are leading with a more fantastical example just so you know what’s in store. Soon after, sports medicin...

Dr. Miller discusses how to rethink radiation and how to protect yourself from it every day.

Episode 63 Title: There is Hope in Your Autoimmune Battle At Organic MD, we’ve been concerned with autoimmune diseases. The subject is complex but affects a large portion of the population. This is partly due to the level of toxins and other stresses that constantly bombard us regularly. Over time, our bodies struggle to fight back, eventually breaking down. Since we see this frequently, we must keep exploring more facets of this important issue. Our podcast reviews these and provides s...

EPISODE 62 Title: Stem Cells Heal Your Eyes We published the book Stem Cells Heal Your Eyes a couple of years ago. It’s the first time we have written down the history and details of our Better Eye Health Program so that people can understand this unique approach to healing degenerative eye disease. Grace Halloran, who developed the initial program, worked tirelessly for years to find ways to reverse the eye disease of herself, her son, and her family. No small task, given how much resi...

EPISODE 61 Title: We Love Food Except When It Makes You Sick Food Glorious Food. Except when it makes you feel crumby. Our new podcast delves into food sensitivities and how to take hold of them. Sometimes, the best skill is awareness. Your body can give you excellent information about the foods you are sensitive to if you pay attention. That’s the key, though – paying attention. Recently, I did a juice cleanse for three days. Hard work but worth it. I cut out wheat, dairy, and coffe...

EPISODE 60 Title: When Life Gives You Lemons, Make Hot Lemon Water: The Wonder of Lemon Juice A few weeks ago, we shared a simple recipe for Hot Lemon Water. It’s about the easiest thing to do, and boy, is it good for you. We quickly became amazed at the response to the post, especially on Facebook. (Yes, we have a Facebook page). Several people shared that hot lemon water was a long-time staple in their lives, some of whom had even grown up with it. This reassured us that this valuable wisdom...

EPISODE 59 Title: Your Favorite Food Might Just Be Your Enemy Favorite food, my enemy? That’s not fair. I might even say it’s cruel. Sadly, at Organic MD, we repeatedly see this. When people remove food from their diet, their health improves. Often, it’s a food they love, but improved health wins out. These days, our sensitivity to foods is nothing short of a complex maze created by many factors. So much so that it becomes futile to try and figure out the “why” of a reaction. The first and be...

EPISODE 58 Title: Cholesterol! Revealing Information About Today's Hot Topic Are you worried about your Cholesterol these days? You might be, especially with all the information and Misinformation about the subject. This week, Dr. Miller tackles the subject recklessly to see what all the fuss is about. Be ready to have your mind opened and changed. Your cholesterol might not be the scary monster you’ve been told about. Unless, of course, you eat cheeseburgers and only cheeseburgers with your f...
