People all around me are having to deal serious health conditions. They are informed that they, or a loved one, is suffering from an autoimmune disease. They are commonly described as situations in which the person's body "...mistakes some part of the body as a pathogen and attacks it"*. That is little more than a catchall phrase for "I don't know what's wrong, but it must be the patient's fault."
It is outside my reasoning to accept that my body would spontaneously attack itself. After decades of experience and reasoning, I conclude that there must be some underlying agent outside the body that initiates the attack - a cause. Instead of throwing up our hands and blaming a nebulous "autoimmune" situation, medical science ought to be digging deeper for causes. Instead of filling out forms and writing prescriptions, doctors need to interact with their patients on a deep level - as a healer, not a just another paper pusher.
I've decided to keep tabs on this as it develops and I've dedicated an area of our website to air out my grieveances with the idea of an "autoimmune disease". Please read the article called
The Autoimmune Ruse.

Question: I read Dr. Kenner's report & noted his comments on page 3 about Chronic Fatigue, specifically the use of sodium bicarbonate. I know that many people use bicarb daily to alkalinize or help digestion, and they use small amounts, from 1/8 to 1/2 tsp. I would guess that Dr. Kenner refers to a much larger amount to cause the effects stated. Is there any way to find out the dosage amount used to cause this reaction of hypoxia?

Question: Just read with interest your article on allergies. It wasn't clear if the remedies you suggest would help with skin allergies, especially cronic hives. I've had a bout of hives for the past six months, only at night and mostly my hands and feet, and am interested in alternative remedies for them. I've also been trying to figure out the triggers for them, with not much luck. Thanks

Question: I have been seeing an endocrinologist because of severe acne breakouts on my face and have not menstruated since the end of November. I went off birth control pills after seven years in July and think my hormones are readjusting. My doctor found through blood work that I have low progesterone and estrogen levels and higher testosterone levels. She wanted me to take synthetic progesterone but I told her that I wanted to look around for some more natural options, which she is open to. I have been taking Natural Progesterone Cream made from yams for almost four weeks now with not much change to my issues. Am I doing something wrong? Also, where I should start in my cycle once I receive the progesterone?
