National Geographic's October 2006 issue looks at the accumulation of environmental toxins in the human body. The magazine spent $15,000 to discover a fightening accumulation of chemicals and metals stored within the author's body. Unfortunately the writer is not aware of the benefits of naturopathic detoxification and heavy metal chelation. Testing to this extent is beyond most people's budgets, but simple screening tests available at the Integrative Healing Arts clinic can indicate whether the body is carrying a heavy metal load, and if the liver and kidneys are capable of detoxifying effectively. "Study Questions Need to Operate on Disk Injuries" Published in JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association A study of over 2,000 low back pain patients, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) was recently reported in the New York Times. The study clearly demonstrated that patients with lower back pain that had surgery, may have had a short term improvement in pain, but after 3-6 months they were no better off than those that did nothing but wait. As well the study demonstrated that waiting for surgery did not put a patient at risk for further aggravation of the condition. This study does not address the issue of what I and many physical medicine doctors observe clinically, which is the re-occurence of lower back pain years after surgery in many patients. It also does not address the benefit from manipulation, acupuncture prolotherapy and other naturopathic treatments in the long term improvement of those cases, whether they had surgery or just waited.

Effectiveness of Electro-dermal Testing for Detection of Food Sensitivities (Excerpted from Journal of Advancement in Medicine, Volume 8, Number 4, Winter 1995) A controlled, comparative study of various ways of testing for food sensitivities, performed by Julia Tsuei M.D., which compared blood, scratch, cytotoxic, food challenge and electro-acupuncture testing, the electro-acupuncture results proved to be accurate and reproducible. This study revealed that it was non-invasive but demonstrated great sensitivity. The BioMeridian MSAS test used in the clinic is advanced Electro-dermal Testing technology. This collection of references presents the scientific background for use of these methods for body analysis.
