"In December 2006, FDA's Psychopharmacologic Drugs Advisory Committee agreed that labeling changes were needed to inform health care professionals about the increased risk of suicidality in younger adults using antidepressants. Additionally, the committee noted product labeling needed to reflect the apparent beneficial effect of antidepressants in older adults and to remind health care professionals that the disorders themselves are the most important cause of suicidality. FDA has been developing language to revise product labeling and update the Patient Medication Guides for these products." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"The organization consists of consumers and health professionals and, in addition to providing information, reviews genetics policies, initiates education programs for health care professionals and coordinates several regional support networks. MEDICAL RECORDS • Know Your History While the Alliance does not recommend specific doctors or labs, it can help you locate regional support groups and genetic counselors who specialize in certain diseases (counselors often help coordinate physician care and other treatments for you, but they usually do not provide medical care)." - Bottom Line Books, Uncommon Cures For Everyday Ailments (Get the book.)

"If all health care professionals broached this type of discussion of your legal ownership of your own eyes, a better working relationship could be developed among pilots, engineers, scientists, and optometrists. Legal responsibility would remain with the individual. There would be no implicit transfer of control at all. The person would be mature enough to understand her responsibility in asserting control over the refractive status of her own eyes. The concept of legal ownership and personal responsibility is currently broken by the traditional use of the minus lens as a quick fix." - David De Angelis, The Secret of Perfect Vision: How You Can Prevent and Reverse Nearsightedness (Get the book.)

"Additionally, the committee noted product labeling needed to reflect the apparent beneficial effect of antidepressants in older adults and to remind health care professionals that the disorders themselves are the most important cause of suicidality. FDA has been developing language to revise product labeling and update the Patient Medication Guides for these products. Manufacturers of antidepressants will now have 30 days to submit their revised product labels and revised Medication Guides to FDA for review." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"Neither CD nor UC is very common but because of the frequency of clinic and hospital visits associated with the diseases, health care professionals tend to have a distorted sense of the prevalence. Worldwide, the incidence of CD ranges from less than 1 to 15 new cases per 100,000 annually and UC, from 2 to greater than 20 per 100,000 annually. The incidence is severalfold greater in relatives of persons with IBD, persons of Jewish descent, and Caucasians [8-10]. If siblings or both parents have CD, the risk increases 30-fold." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.) "Consistent efforts to educate and promote adherence to dietary and lifestyle guidelines by dietetic and other health care professionals are also instrumental to the prevention and management of hypertension. APPENDIX 1." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.)

"We all have a relationship to the health care system: patients and potential patients, doctors and other health care professionals, researchers, workers in health care industries, health policy experts, government officials, lawmakers, and investors. We have all been pulled into this enormous and complex system by our hopes and fears, our myths and ideologies, our dedication and pursuit of scientific knowledge, and our personal and institutional aspirations." - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.)

"The CDC recommends increased folic acid intake (supplements or fortified breakfast cereals) and charges health care professionals to recommend these to women of child-bearing age [26]. There is no mention of the desirability of improving the general diet of these women, although the editor acknowledges that there may be other causes of NTD besides folate insufficiency." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.)

"Transformation continues to educate health care professionals on the benefits of enzymes and enzyme therapy. Her book, The Healing Power of Enzymes, describes common enzyme deficiencies, body typing, and practical dietary recommendations to support healing. MAX GERSON, MD In the 1930s and '40s, Dr. Max Gerson treated cancer and tuberculosis at his clinic in Germany. He was among the first to discover the importance of organically grown whole foods as he conducted research testing the reaction of all types of foods on the body's various systems." - Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.)

"He visited Siczkowycz looking for an answer because his regular health care professionals were at a loss as to how to help him. His NES scan revealed that his Source energy was severely depleted. Siczkowycz instructed him on how to take the Source Driver Infoceutical, which he did for one month. When he returned for a follow-up visit, his Source Driver had fully corrected itself, and he was back to his vigorous self. In fact, a few weeks after that, Randolph called the NES US office just to say thanks." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.) "Contrary to many other bioenergetic researchers and complementary health care professionals, we believe at this time that the farther away the client is from the scanning equipment, the less reliable a body-field analysis is. The interaction of Out waves and In waves results in tiny phase shifts and frequency changes, which will affect how matching occurs in a computer. Our research has shown that the closer together the fields are that are going to be compared, the more accurate and reliable the scan results." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.) "Because everything of energetic and informational significance has its correlation to physical processes, NES practitioners must be licensed or certified health care professionals with an understanding of anatomy, physiology, and pathology. Because your body-field is dynamic and a scan examines the subsystems of your field in relation to your entire body-field, there will always be something in your field that shows as needing correction." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)

"Other ear and hearing signs can be evaluated and treated by various health care professionals. In general, a physical examination by a primary care clinician—such as an internist, general practitioner, family physician, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant—should include a peek into your ears and a periodic hearing test as you age. Because our ears are so interrelated with our other sensory organs, many ear specialists are also trained in diagnosing and treating nose and throat disorders. Here are some medical doctors and hearing specialists whom you may need to call to check your ears." - Joan Liebmann-Smith, Ph. D., and Jacqueline Nardi Egan, Body Signs: From Warning Signs to False Alarms...How to Be Your Own Diagnostic Detective (Get the book.) "Speech Pathologists or Therapists: health care professionals who have advanced degrees in communication sciences. They provide speech rehabilitation to patients who have speech disorders or who have had strokes or brain injuries. THE MAIN BODY OF EVIDENCE Your Torso and Extremities The body says what words cannot. —MARTHA GRAHAM, DANCER AND CHOREOGRAPHER f hen we hear the word body, what's likely to spring to mind is the torso, not the head. Indeed, the mind is useless without the torso to carry out its wishes and whims. The body is the "temple of the soul," according to yoga philosophy." - Joan Liebmann-Smith, Ph. D., and Jacqueline Nardi Egan, Body Signs: From Warning Signs to False Alarms...How to Be Your Own Diagnostic Detective (Get the book.) "Here are just a few of the health care professionals you may be talking to when it comes to your lips, mouth, and teeth: • Dental hygienist: A health care professional licensed in dental hygiene who specializes in preventing tooth and gum disease. In addition to cleaning teeth, dental hygienists are trained to evaluate the teeth, gums, and mouth for abnormalities. 'Dentist: A specialist with a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) or Doctor of Medical Dentistry (DMD) degree. (These degrees and training are the same.) Dentists can treat periodontal disease as part of overall dental care." - Joan Liebmann-Smith, Ph. D., and Jacqueline Nardi Egan, Body Signs: From Warning Signs to False Alarms...How to Be Your Own Diagnostic Detective (Get the book.)

"The most efficient way to address obesity is in preventing excess weight gain from ever occurring, therefore health care professionals should consider addressing prevention of weight gain in all patients. Because the entire U.S. population appears to be in a gradual weight gain state, a first goal for all patients should be not to gain additional weight. This would apply to patients whether they are currently at a healthy weight, overweight, or obese. In children, this goal can be translated to preventing excessive weight gain. Hill et al." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.)

"The report stunned even health care professionals. The institute estimated that medical errors kill between forty-four thousand and ninety-eight thousand Americans each year. Some 4 percent of the thirty-three million people who are hospitalized annually, about 1.3 million patients, suffer from a complication—or in medical argot, an "adverse event"—that leads to a longer stay in the hospital, disability, or death. One in seven adverse events tallied in the study involved an infection acquired in the hospital." - Shannon Brownlee, Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer (Get the book.)

"Clients are counseled to continue their other treatments and to confer with their other health care professionals. Randolph was eighty years old at the time he sought NES practitioner and naturopathic physician Jason Siczkowycz's assistance. Six months prior, he had been hospitalized with pneumonia, and since that time he had debilitating fatigue. He reported that he could barely function: simply showering and shaving in the morning would so exhaust him that he had to go back to bed." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)

"Doctors and orher health care professionals are akin to coaches; they can offer a good game plan but they cannot complete the plays. You must do that. Health care professionals have a tough job. They can only treat you within the perspecrive of their training. If that training is focused in certain areas such as pharmacology, anatomy, and biochemistry and is insufficient in other areas, such as nutrition and drug interactions, then they will not be capable of trearing and advising you adequately." - David H. Rippe, Jared Rosen, The Flip: Turn Your World Around (Get the book.)

"Nurses, the health care professionals who are closest to the patients, were the first to see and report on the adverse effects of poly-pharmacy. They are also closest to the doctors who prescribe these drugs. Larsen and Martin report that the physicians willingly prescribe multiple prescriptions because they perceive (correctly) that this is what the patient wants. Little or no time is spent on the discussion of "non-prescriptive methods of treatment." Take high blood pressure as an example." - Kenneth W Thomas, Ron Gilbert, Gerd Schaller, Side Effects: The Hidden Agenda of the Pharmaceutical Drug Cartel (Get the book.)

"Scott and other alternative health care professionals have found that over the years, certain patients in certain advanced diseased conditions absolutely cannot tolerate a mostly raw or all-raw food diet. Violent reactions to raw food and/or a wasting away into nutrient deficiencies and/or dangerously low body weight can occur with these raw food-intolerant people. According to Dr. Scott, these incidences of raw food intolerance are very rare. We wanted to make it perfectly clear, however, that they may be found in certain advanced diseased states." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "If people were to switch from SAD foods to live foods, most medical professionals, food giants, restaurant owners, pharmacists, drug salespeople, people employed by the American Cancer Society and other such organizations searching for drug cures, herbicide and pesticide producers and even many veterinarians and alternative health care professionals would all have to change or radically revamp their careers. This would upset the employee ladder from janitors to executives in every country!" - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "The powerful, mind-persuading techniques developed by psychologists and employed by advertisers would serve two primary purposes: (1) to even further elevate the status of doctors and health care professionals in the medical/pharmaceutical complex to all-powerful, all-knowing untouchables, thus instilling "The Medical Mentality" into the minds not only of the doctors, but of the people as well, and (2) to start the people eating cooked, toxic food out of boxes and cans and bottles rather than seeking fresh, whole, raw foods from gardens and produce shops and farmers' stands." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.)

"After new drugs and medical devices are introduced to the market, the manufacturers go to great lengths to convince health care professionals that their products should be used for an ever-expanding range of symptoms. The case for implantable defibrillators is a perfect example. A patient of mine, Mr. Peters, is a 78-year-old easygoing retired mechanic who has been living alone since his wife passed away. A few years ago he was hospitalized for what turned out to be a small heart attack." - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.)

"In the letter, Wyeth warned health care professionals that clinical studies had found a heightened risk of hostility and suicidal thoughts in children and teenagers taking its drug. The company wrote, "You should be alert to signs of suicidal ideation in children and adolescent patients prescribed Effexor." Extreme agitation was one of those signs. In October 2004, a little more than three years after Justin died, the Food and Drug Administration issued a warning to health professionals and the public." - Shannon Brownlee, Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer (Get the book.)

"Naturally, pharmaceutical companies spend billions to convince parents, educators, and health care professionals that the drugs are superior. Why talk to children about their problems when drugs will damp down the symptoms? An adult can say no to a drug that is hurting her and walk away. A child is powerless to resist and likely to have the ill effects of one drug treated by adding others to the mix, which only compounds the problem. If so many adults died from Prozac during a supervised trial, what will the death toll climb to in children whose systems are so much more sensitive?" - Fred A. Baughman, Jr., M.D. and Craig Hovey, The ADHD Fraud: How Psychiatry Makes "Patients" of Normal Children (Get the book.)

"After physicians and dentists, chiropractors are the third largest group of health care professionals in our nation. They are licensed in all fifty states and most health insurance plans cover the treatment they provide. Chiropractors are the most widely used practitioners in the alternative health care field. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services lists spinal manipulation as a proven treatment for low back pain. Chiropractic therapy is also used to treat arthritis, bursitis, and a variety of other disorders, including many nonpainful ailments." - Phyllis A. Balch, CNC, Prescription for Nutritional Healing, 4th Edition: A Practical A-to-Z Reference to Drug-Free Remedies Using Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs & Food Supplements (Get the book.) "Miller Pharmacal products, available through health care professionals only, include: • Milcozyme, a two-part enzyme supplement with glutamic acid HC1, betaine HC1, papain, pepsin, and an enteric-coated side of the same tablet with pancreatin, lipase, amylase, and bromelain. • Carbozyme, which contains betaine HC1, trypsin, chymotrypsin, bromelain, pancreatin, mannitol, thymus extract, lipase, amylase, and papain. • Proteolytic Enzymes, made with enteric-coated trypsin and chymotrypsin." - Phyllis A.

"Today, our children are subject to educational and health care professionals who advocate the labeling and drugging of normal children. They are conscientious, obedient people who serve the institutions that pay them and provide prestige, security, and opportunities for advancement as well. They are operating with blinders on, to be sure, but they are sane people who would be horrified at the thought of participating in a massive abuse of children. Each individual's part in it is small, with plenty of built-in, rational-sounding justifications for doing what they do." - Fred A. Baughman, Jr., M.D. and Craig Hovey, The ADHD Fraud: How Psychiatry Makes "Patients" of Normal Children (Get the book.)
