Q&A with Naturopath Doctor John Coleman

08/24/16 • 57 min

Parkinsons Recovery
This program is an interview with naturopath doctor John Coleman from Australia who, to my knowledge, is one of the first persons to successfully reverse his own Parkinson’s symptoms. John offers his answers to the following eight questions which were previously submitted by members of my listening audience. My wife has been anemic just after experiencing Parkinson’s symptoms. Her iron levels are too low. What steps should she take to remedy this situation? Can I give my mother B12 vitamins for her condition? How does one deal with orthostatic hypotension (or low blood pressure)? I have tried many therapies over the past five years but the Parkinson’s symptoms continue to progress. Treatments included two stem cell treatments and other treatments out of the country. There was an initial improvement over the initial 6 months, but these benefits faded away. What supplements have you found that help the most?Have you seen a connection for many people of Lipitor (a statin drug developed to reduce levels of the “bad” cholesterol) with Parkinson’s symptoms? How can I get the best movement possible with the least amount of medications?What will carbidopa help and what will it not help? What was most helpful to you in your own recovery process?

All About the Aquas

When you your doctor answers the question: "What can I do to feel better?" by saying - "Drink more water" Do not laugh. Your doctor is probably right. Dehydration becomes a serious issue for most people as they age. For whatever reasons, the body's mechanism for signalling thirst and distributing water to the cells becomes compromised with the aging process. Many people who currently experience Parkinson's symptoms take Aquas which were formulated to hydrate the body. John Coleman, ND, says that the Aquas were instrumental to his own recovery from Parkinson's. Jaroslav Boublik,PhD, one of the original developers of the Aquas, answers questions about the Aquas during the radio show today. For more information about the Aquas visit: www.aquas4life.com

Whole Brain Power for Brain Rejuvenation

The fine and gross motor controls of the hands help to grow the brain. This brain growth occurs specifically on the surface of the brain (cerebral cortex) as well as certain anatomical areas of the hippocampi structures, the corpus collosum and the cerebellum. Science has proven that the growth of myelin occurs with improved procedural memories. When the myelin thickens on the axon sheaths, chemical changes occur and the master steroid called Pregnenolone is produced. This is part of the Steroidogenesis process that helps to maintain homeostasis within the brain. The brain has the ability to create new neurons in a process called Neurogenesis. There is now much evidence to support that the brain has much greater plasticity than previously recognized.This is encouraging news for anyone dealing with mild cognitive impairment. People dealing with Parkinson's can be inspired to become more proactive with the issues of doing certain brain exercises that can help to rewire both hemispheres. One of the tenets of the Whole Brain Power system is to work on ambidexterity with handwriting drills and to also work on mirror writing. This exercise is called "Da Vinci writing." It is one in which the practitioner writes from right to left with cursive penmanship. The other ambidextrous drill is to bounce a golf ball off a mallet and to do so with either hand. People with Parkinson's seem to make tremendous strides in these areas where initially they had coordination problems.
