"Not one hospital responded. I wrote to each a second time. Again nothing. With the third letter, I finally got a response. Finally, one of the hospitals wrote back and told me to never write them again!
3In fact, the benefits of chemo vary widely from cancer to cancer—sometimes improving "short-term" survivability by as much as 50%; but also, in many cases, by 1% or less.
They were then "sent home" by their doctor to die. At that point, with no other options left to them, they tracked down one of the "miracle doctors." Amazingly, they began to feel better almost from day one." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)
| "In 1999, Christopher Fink's malnourished two-year-old son was admitted to a Utah hospital by health authorities after it emerged that Fink had been feeding him only watermelon and lettuce. After allegedly kidnapping his hospitalized son, Fink pled guilty to the charges of attempted aggravated assault and second-degree felony child abuse and admitted that the borderline fruitarian diet was the cause of his son's health problems.
Fruitarians seem to prefer the colloquial definition of a fruit rather than the botanical." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.)
| "More effective, because more widely available, was the one great medical innovation of late antiquity: the hospital, which evolved from the Christian xenodochia, combinations of treatment centers, hospices, and poorhouses, which spread from their original locations in Judaea during the late fourth century to Rome, Ephesus, and (largest of all) the hospitals built and staffed by St. John Chrysos-tom during his tenure as Bishop of Constantinople." - William Rosen, Justinian's Flea: The First Great Plague and the End of the Roman Empire (Get the book.)

| "At that time, even the hospital had several cigarette machines in the lobby, and just about the only foods available in the hospital cafeteria were cheeseburgers, fried fish, and french fries. In many hospitals, it's still that way. Some even have McDonald's or Burger King franchises right in the hospital. (Now, though, Baylor has a lowfat gourmet restaurant.) Several years ago, Dr. Robert Wissler, an eminent pathologist at the University of Chicago, fed his patients' regular hospital diet to baboons. The baboons developed arterial blockages." - Dean Ornish, Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease (Get the book.)

| "In most hospitals, the sole concern of the certified nutritionists who prepare hospital "food" is putting together a proper balance of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. As you will soon learn, this is tantamount to nutritional insanity.
• Proteins are essential for the growth and repair of all body tissue. Ptoteins ate made of amino acids, some of which your body can produce by itself, and some of which must be included in your diet.
A great deal is made about the need for protein, but the fact is our protein requirements are not really very large and are easy to fill." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

| "So Anju took Priya to the hospital, where doctors tried to desensitize her to eggs, by giving her an extremely small dosage of the vaccine. The moment it hit her system, though, Priya became violently ill.
Soon after that, Priya began to suffer from asthma. Almost every day, she would begin to wheeze and fight for air. As a toddler, and then as a preschooler, she was never very far from her inhaler.
Anju began to research methods of reversing asthma." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)
| "You may consider taking a class on strength training offered by a local health club, community center, or hospital.
?You can do your strength training on the days you are not doing an aerobic workout or after an aerobic workout session. See which way works best for you.
?Avoid doing any movements that cause a sharp pain. It's okay to feel a "burn" in your muscles, but it's not okay to feel pain in any joint.
Strength training compares favorably with aerobic endurance training." - Steven V. Joyal, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Diabetes: An Innovative Program to Prevent, Treat, and Beat This Controllable Disease (Get the book.)
"Researchers at Boston University School of Medicine and McLean hospital in Belmont, Massachusetts, measured the levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA; a chemical involved in mood) in the brains of people after they practiced yoga and compared those levels with people who spent the same time reading. Those who practiced yoga had a 27 percent increase in GABA, which is similar to the response seen in people who take antidepressants. The readers did not experience an increase in GABA."

"A 2006 study from Children's hospital in Boston compared the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in twelve- to nineteen-year-olds in the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES) from two time periods: 1988?1994 and 1999-2000. The researchers found that metabolic syndrome affected 9.2 percent of young people in the earlier survey and 12.7 percent in the later one, and that the increase was due mainly to an increase in body weight. Overall, 38.6 percent of overweight or obese youngsters had metabolic syndrome, compared with 1.4 percent of normal-weight young people."

| "Reports of the epidemic in Barcelona led epidemiologists in New Orleans to investigate cases of epidemic asthma that occurred from 1957 [to] 1968, when more than 200 people sought treatment at a Charily hospital. Investigations of weather patterns and cargo data from the New Orleans harbor identified soy dust from ships carrying soybeans as the probable cause. No association was found between asthma-epidemic days and the presence of wheat or corn in ships in the harbor." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)
"Michael's hospital in Toronto used American ginseng (Panax quin-quefolius) in the treatment of Type-2 diabetes.188 The authors in an earlier study showed that 3 grams of American ginseng, either with or 40 minutes before a 25-gram oral glucose challenge, significantly reduced the blood glucose levels in Type-2 diabetes.189
Another study was done with ten Type-2 diabetics, six men and four women who had diabetes from two to twelve years. Seven were on antidiabetic drugs and three were on diet alone. Their average age was 63."

| "Researchers saw similar improvements in a study at Riyadh Armed Forces hospital in Saudi Arabia. The vitamin D levels of 360 people with chronic back pain for more than six months were tested, and 83 percent had vitamin D deficiencies. Then, when doctors normalized their D levels, back pain relief improved in all of them. Two-thirds of those who'd had normal D levels also saw improvements in their back pain with supplementation.

| "When Kyle reached age four, they scheduled him with the best pediatric neuropsychologist in the best hospital in the city. They had to wait three months to see her.
She looked professional, and tired. She ran a number of tests, including an IQ test, and finally called them into her office.
"Kyle is autistic," she said flatly.
"Is there a chance it's PDD?" Eric asked hopefully, referring to Pervasive Developmental Disorder, another diagnostic label. "Autism is PDD." "I thought PDD was milder."
"Some forms of PDD are milder, but autism is the most severe form of PDD." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)
"Cook County hospital was a medical combat zone. Cook County is the place that the show ER is based on, and Anju still can't watch that program, because every melodramatic moment of it brings back memories of days careening into nights, as people screamed, cried, and died.
At the end of her shift, Anju would rush home to Priya, who would also be screaming-with colic-her face red and contorted, her belly as hard and big as a melon.
But Anju would work her mother's magic, and Priya's eyes would light with recognition as she grew quiet and calm."

"As the moment for the procedure approached, Ron sat with Hugo in his hospital room, read him books, held him, and hid his own fear.
Hugo and Ron were exceptionally close. During the first few weeks after Hugo's birth, Ron played a large role in caring for him and immediately discovered that he liked everything about parenting-even the diapers and sleepless nights. His life had a new kind of love in it."

| "VRE has been recovered from various hospital equipment (intravenous pumps, electrocardiogram monitors, bedside tables, blood pressure cuffs, rectal thermometers, stethoscopes and door knobs). This bacteria sticks around and it is a very dangerous bacteria. This superbug tends to receive less media attention than its counterparts—Staph and C. difficile. This may explain why research on ways to battle VRE infections, including the use of probiotics, is lacking." - Allison Tannis, Probiotic Rescue: How You can use Probiotics to Fight Cholesterol, Cancer, Superbugs, Digestive Complaints and More (Get the book.)
"This study and others support the use of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG in children with acute diarrhea as a safe way to shorten the duration of their diarrhea and reduce the time they have to be in the hospital.
L. reuteri is another probiotic known to help with diarrhea. Two double-blind, placebo-controlled research trials looked at the effects of L. reuteri in children with acute infectious diarrhea. Daily dosages of one hundred billion (1011) CFU of L. reuteri was well tolerated and effectively prevented diarrhea in the young children."

"Prior use of vancomycin, teicoplanin or other broad-spectrum antibiotics, undergoing invasive procedures, prolonged hospital stays, or being immunocompromised are factors that increase the risk of developing a VRE infection. The greatest risk is posed by exposure to VRE-contaminated objects or individuals, while you are experiencing any of the above circumstances.
Why are VRE strains so infectious? They have the ability to survive on dry surfaces for up to four months."

| "About 335,000 people a year die of sudden cardiac arrest in hospital emergency rooms or before they ever receive medical attention.
Think Inflammation, Not Cholesterol
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) can kill in an instant by heart attack or stroke. Fifty percent of the time, the very first symptom is cardiac arrest.
Without warning, half of all people who have the disease die without ever knowing they had it." - Stephen Sinatra, M.D. and James C., M.D. Roberts, Reverse Heart Disease Now: Stop Deadly Cardiovascular Plaque Before It's Too Late (Get the book.)
