August 1, 2016 Puzzle Piece
Metabolic Syndrome leads to heart disease, cancer, diabetes and other diseases; + Webinar & Slides
Doug Grant and I did a Webinar with the above topic. Please
take a few minutes and listen to its contents. (Click Below) Underneath
most dis-ease and disease is blood sugar dysregulation that leads to
many symptomatic expressions. Instead of trying to name and blame a
disease, we need to improve function.
Balancing
blood sugar helps to reduce Syndrome X or Metabolic Syndrome, increases
energy, reduces inflammation, infections and helps normalize
cholesterol and blood pressure. We have outlined in the webinar facts
and figures, with the research to back these concepts. Further we have
listed the specific nutrition to assist in prevention and support.
Research proves need for 6 different nutrients to be replenished daily to reach optimal health from OHS.
The entire Power Point and the link to the Webinar are included in this e-mail.
1. Clean (non-GMO) macronutrients- carbs, proteins and fats
2. Whole food vitamins
3. Organic minerals
4. Omega essential fatty acids
5. Probiotics –friendly flora
6. Plant enzymes
The “Six Steps to Wellness” are all about identifying the “6
Interferences” to Health and Wellness and correcting them. Homecoming
2017 will be on January 27-29. We will be covering each of the six
interferences and each step to correction. WE WILL GIVE MANY NEW
INSIGHT S FROM THE BOOK MEDICAL MEDIUM, by Anthony William.
We will have new cranial technique that we have not taught
before by Dennis Pick, DC, new adjusting and taping by David Smaldone,
DC along with updates on all Six Steps by Dr John, Dr Brett Brimhall and
Westin Childs, DO. Jesse Liebman, DC and Derek Bruno D.C will cover
how they do the Peripheral Neuropathy program in there office, averaging
over $ 100,000 per month extra. They will also cover how they reduce
back pain by utilizing body contouring to add another extra million
dollars per year to their practice. We will update you and do webinars
to prepare your for Homecoming 2017.
Please listen to the Webinar and you will see the research
behind each step that allows correction of blood sugar dysregulation and
Metabolic Syndrome.

June 8, 2020 - How to Start a Profitable Virtual Clinic Without Being a Tech Guru or Wasting Hours Making Social Media Content
June 8, 2020 Puzzle Piece
How to Start a Profitable Virtual Clinic Without Being a Tech Guru
or Wasting Hours Making Social Media Content
Doctors,
and especially those that are a little older, are at a different level
of tech savvy compared to kids these days. It is like children are born
knowing how to use computers and all the advancing technology. COVID-19
taught us that we would benefit greatly from having virtual concepts
and literally virtual clinics. This creates benefits for us, our
patients, and our practice.
WE WANT TO JUMPSTART YOUR ABILITY TO CREATE A VIRTUAL CLINIC! Super
Seminar, June 25-28, 2020, in Phoenix, AZ will be your opportunity to
quantum leap into a new Virtual Reality. Marketing expert Braven Grant,
will deliver a presentation on how to set up a virtual clinic.
Far too many doctors do not have a good email marking system or social
media presence. Braven will cover the three core principles that
successfully execute a social media and email campaign without working
you into the ground.
The first part is the Ignite Process, which is all
about how to take your current email list and social media contacts and
ignite that connection. The stronger the connection, the stronger your
clinic. Your current contacts already trust you and have a positive
relationship. The Ignite Process can unlock the business potential
hiding right in front of you.
The second part is the Prescription Series, which
guides you through how to prescribe supplements, exercises or clinic
offers without feeling like you’re a pushy salesperson. The core aspect
of this is trust and instilling in every patient that you understand
their needs and genuinely care about their health, two things you
already do whether you realize it or not.
Braven and his team will help you take this a step further, in a way
that can help your patients reach new levels of improved health, while
your income gets a nice boost. You will learn how to make offers and
write prescriptions’ patients will accept because they feel properly
evaluated and understood.
The third part is automation. Braven will show you how
to automate your virtual clinic so you do not have to spend exorbitant
amounts of time on social media or working email lists, etc. You can set
up your virtual clinic to welcome each new patient in a way that feels
authentic and builds that trusting rapport.
Putting all three parts together increases the quality of patient care,
improved results and increased income. You will learn how to work
smarter, instead of harder.
This super seminar ALSO includes:
- 20 CECs for approved states
- Methylation Certification
- Six Steps to Wellness Certification
- AP Nutrition
- Virtual Clinic Marketing Blueprint
- 4 Free Lunches & Resort Passes (so bring your family!)
- Major Discount on Hotel Rooms
- New Technology & Product Launches
- And much more!
Together, this is a $2700 value we are offering for $597. And by
completing the Methylation I seminar, you unlock your opportunity for
Methylation II, which will be available later in the year.
To sign up, go online
or call us at 1-800-890-4547 and one of Optimal Health Systems’
friendly representatives will hook you up. And if for any reason you
cannot attend, you can get a FULL refund up to 7 days prior to the
seminar.
From June 25th to June 28th at the Arizona Grand Resort in Phoenix, Optimal Health Systems is hosting the Super Seminar.
This is the biggest certification seminar we have ever hosted. We look forward to seeing you there!
***We Know Travel Might Be Tough Right Now***
If you are not able to attend the seminar but would still like access to aforementioned training, simply send an email to braven@marketingprescriptions.com and ask for access to virtual training on Braven’s virtual clinic talk.

This is an early Valentines Puzzle Piece by permission and compliments of Jay Mead and Labrix laboratories. Labrix was one of vendors at Homecoming 2016. We also did a webinar with them in early January that is available through the office at 866-338-4883. Dr. John
Better Than a Box of Chocolates:
Give Her Back Her Libido for Valentine’s Day!
With Cupid’s arrow poised to strike, February is an ideal month to help your female patients dust the cobwebs off their libido. “Libido” as a term has roots in psychoanalytic theory, involving sexual drive as an essential component of life. Although the previous definition includes the word “essential” it’s frequently viewed as anything but. Women’s sexual health concerns, including decreased libido, are often seen as frivolous and not identified as legitimate health concerns; when, in actuality, understanding and optimizing a patient's libido can make all the difference in quality of life.
According to a 2008 study in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 38.7% of women report decreased libido as their primary sexual health concern. Low libido may stem from multiple factors - neurotransmitter and hormone imbalances being among them. Times of great hormonal shifts, such as after giving birth, and as a woman becomes perimenopausal and menopausal often parallel these negative changes in libido with women who use hormone therapies reporting higher sexual desire.
While testosterone is often thought of as the key hormone for desire and drive and does play an essential role in maintaining libido, it is not the only hormone of importance. DHEA, estrogen and progesterone play essential roles in maintaining libido as well. Estrogen is required for vulvar tissue tone with a deficiency potentially manifesting as vaginal dryness, decreased sensations, pain with intercourse and difficulty with orgasm. Progesterone plays an essential role in maintaining mood, and decreasing irritability, bloating and breast tenderness – all of which may contribute to feelings of little desire. In addition, adequate progesterone levels are required to mediate receptivity to partner approach.
Stress, HPA axis dysfunction and resultant cortisol imbalances lead to sleep disturbances and fatigue, all contributing to decreased libido - people manage to do many things well when they’re stressed, but feeling sexy isn't typically one of them!
Beyond hormone balance, neurotransmitter balance contributes to maintaining a strong libido. Neurotransmitters are either excitatory or inhibitory in nature; and desire requires a balance between them. The excitatory neurotransmitters dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine and glutamate stimulate sexual desire, while the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA plays a role in stimulating sexual reward, sedation and satiety. Serotonin may be considered excitatory, contributing to desire; however in excess, it may actually be inhibitory and contribute to difficulty with orgasm.
How can you help your female clients get their sexy on for Valentine’s Day? Start with assessing hormone and neurotransmitter levels. The Labrix Neurohormone Complete Panel is a simple and comprehensive way to accurately evaluate sex hormone, cortisol and neurotransmitter levels and a great start to bringing sexy back.

December 27, 2021 - If You’ve Had COVID You’re Likely Protected for LifeIf You’ve Had COVID You’re Likely Protected for Life
December 27, 2021 Puzzle Piece
If You’ve Had COVID You’re Likely Protected for Life
We are sending today an unedited article from Dr Mercola, who has
continually gone against the mainstream to bring the World a more
natural look at COVID and all of its ramifications.
Enjoy a scientific look at this topic and decide for yourself your own Reality.
Blessings,
Dr John and Team
If you’ve had COVID-19,
even a mild case, major congratulations to you as you’ve more than
likely got long-term immunity, according to a team of researchers from
Washington University School of Medicine. In fact, you’re likely to be
immune for life, as is the case with recovery from many infectious
agents — once you’ve had the disease and recovered, you’re immune, most
likely for life.
The evidence is strong and promising, and should be welcome and
comforting news to a public that has spent the last year, 2020, in a
panic over SARS-CoV-2.
Increasingly evidence is showing that long-lasting immunity exists.
Initial Reports That COVID Immunity Was Fleeting Were Flawed
Seasonal coronaviruses, some of which cause common colds, yield only
short-lived protective immunity, with reinfections occurring six to 12
months after the previous infection. Early data on SARS-CoV-2 also found
that antibody titers declined rapidly in the first months after
recovery from COVID-19, leading some to speculate that protective
immunity against SARS-CoV-2 may also be short-lived.
Senior author of the study, Ali Ellebedy, Ph.D., an associate professor
of pathology and immunology at Washington University School of Medicine
in St. Louis, pointed out that this assumption is flawed, stating in a
news release:
“Last fall, there were reports that antibodies waned quickly after
infection with the virus that causes COVID-19, and mainstream media
interpreted that to mean that immunity was not long-lived. But that’s a
misinterpretation of the data. It’s normal for antibody levels to go
down after acute infection, but they don’t go down to zero; they
plateau.”
The researchers found a biphasic pattern of antibody concentrations
against SARS-CoV-2, in which high antibody concentrations were found in
the acute immune response that occurred at the time of initial
infection.
The antibodies declined in the first months after infection, as should
be expected, then leveled off to about 10% to 20% of the maximum
concentration detected. In a commentary on the study, Andreas Radbruch
and Hyun-Dong Chang of the German Rheumatism Research Centre Berlin
explained:
“This is consistent with the expectation that 10–20% of the plasma
cells in an acute immune reaction become memory plasma cells, and is a
clear indication of a shift from antibody production by short-lived
plasma cells to antibody production by memory plasma cells. This is not
unexpected, given that immune memory to many viruses and vaccines is
stable over decades, if not for a lifetime.”
When a new infection occurs, cells called plasmablasts provide
antibodies, but when the virus is cleared, longer lasting memory B cells
move in to monitor blood for signs of reinfection.
Bone marrow plasma cells (BMPCs) also exist in bones, acting as
“persistent and essential sources of protective antibodies.” According
to Ellebedy, “A plasma cell is our life history, in terms of the
pathogens we’ve been exposed to,” and it’s in these long-lived BMPCs
were immunity to SARS-CoV-2 resides.
Long-Term Immunity Likely After COVID-19 Infection
For the study, blood samples were collected from 77 people who had
recovered from COVID-19, about one month after the onset of symptoms;
most had experienced mild cases. Additional blood samples were collected
three more times at three-month intervals to track antibody production;
memory B cells and bone marrow were also collected from some of the
participants.
Levels of anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (S) antibodies declined rapidly
in the first four months after infection, then slowed over the next
seven months. The most exciting part of the research is that, at both
seven months and 11 months after infection, most of the participants had
BMPCs that secreted antibodies specific for the spike protein encoded
by SARS-CoV-2.
The BMPCs were found in amounts similar to those found in people who had
been vaccinated against tetanus or diphtheria, which are considered to
provide long-lasting immunity.
“Overall, our data provide strong evidence that SARS-CoV-2 infection in
humans robustly establishes the two arms of humoral immune memory:
long-lived BMPCs and memory B cells,” the researchers noted. This is
perhaps the best available evidence of long-lasting immunity, Radbruch
and Chang explained, because this immunological memory is a distinct
part of the immune system that’s essential to long-term protection,
beyond the initial immune response to the virus:
“In the memory phase of an immune response, B and T cells that are
specific for a virus are maintained in a state of dormancy, but are
poised to spring into action if they encounter the virus again or a
vaccine that represents it. These memory B and T cells arise from cells
activated in the initial immune reaction.
The cells undergo changes to their chromosomal DNA, termed
epigenetic modifications, that enable them to react rapidly to
subsequent signs of infection and drive responses geared to eliminating
the disease-causing agent.
B cells have a dual role in immunity: they produce antibodies that
can recognize viral proteins, and they can present parts of these
proteins to specific T cells or develop into plasma cells that secrete
antibodies in large quantities.
About 25 years ago, it became evident that plasma cells can become
memory cells themselves, and can secrete antibodies for long-lasting
protection. Memory plasma cells can be maintained for decades, if not a
lifetime, in the bone marrow.”
In addition, in 2020 it was reported that people who had recovered from
SARS-CoV — a virus that is genetically closely related to SARS-CoV-2 and
belongs to the same viral species — maintained significant levels of
neutralizing antibodies at least 17 years after initial infection. This
also suggests that long-term immunity against SARS-CoV-2 should be
expected. Ellebedy even said the protection is likely to continue
“indefinitely”:
“These [BMPC] cells are not dividing. They are quiescent, just
sitting in the bone marrow and secreting antibodies. They have been
doing that ever since the infection resolved, and they will continue
doing that indefinitely.”

August 14 2017 Puzzle Piece - Use Allied Professionals e.g. Nurse Practitioners To Treat ED, Reduce Pain & Increase Function
Use Allied Professionals e.g. Nurse Practitioners To Treat ED, Reduce Pain & Increase Function
August 14, 2017 Puzzle Piece
Marc
Harris, ND and I are teaching integrating your practice, utilizing
allied professionals to expand into PRP, Biological Allografts and
treating ED, Female and other dysfunctions. This work is complimentary
to the Six Steps to Wellness and gives the best anti-aging I have
witnessed ever.
Let’s start out with ED or Female dysfunction and getting quick
and long lasting results. Dr Harris teaches the use platelet-rich
plasma, or PRP. This can be used alone or with Biological Allografts
from the umbilical cords of C-Section babies.
Dr Harris has used these adjuncts for many years to speed up the
healing of sports injuries, ED, aching joints, joint degeneration, disc
herniation, chronic pain and surgical wounds. It's better than a
facelift to smooth fine lines and wrinkles if your office wants to
expand into this type of treatment.
Let’s give an example of PRP by explaining ED care. Over one
third of men and women suffer from sexual dysfunction. Everything from
complete erectile dysfunction and vaginal dryness to pain and low libido
respond successfully to treatment.
Women are often prescribed an antidepressant or maybe a "female
Viagra”, or both. As always, both of these types of drugs have many side
effects, such as increased risk for heart attack and stroke.
PRP is a simple treatment. It starts with a small amount of blood
drawn from your arm. The blood is run through a centrifuge to separate
out plasma with a high concentration of platelets.
This platelet-rich plasma is also rich in powerful proteins called growth factors.
Many times Dr Harris also adds the Biological Allografts. He is
teaching the use of these techniques across the country. Please contact
Jason at Dr Brimhall’s Health Path Products Office for more information
and a schedule of the seminars at 480-964-5198.
When PRP is injected into an injured area, growth factors promote
healing. They regenerate injured tissue. These growth factors also get
to the root cause of many forms of sexual problems by increasing blood
flow.
PRP increases blood flow wherever it's applied. When PRP is
injected into tissues, it activates the growth of new blood vessels from
existing and damaged blood vessel tissue. That can increase blood flow.1
The P-Shot for Men: In erectile dysfunction(ED), low blood flow makes it difficult or impossible for the penis to become erect.
P-shot is short for "Priapus Shot." It's named after the Greek god
of fertility. PRP from your own blood is injected directly into the
penis. A strong numbing cream is applied first, yielding very little
discomfort.
A recent clinical study reveals what improved blood flow from PRP can do. It: 2
- Increases erection firmness and strength
- Boosts sensitivity and pleasure
- Prolongs sexual stamina and
- Improves penis health
All
it takes is 15-20 minutes for the procedure. Many see results right
away. Within two to four weeks, maximum benefit should be evident. The
results usually last for up to a year.
The O-Shot For Women: Low blood flow to
the vagina and clitoris can diminish arousal and orgasm. It can also
cause vaginal dryness and reduced sexual sensation.
PRP O-shots (and possibly Biological Allografts at the same time)
are injected, with very little if any discomfort into an area near the
clitoris and an area just inside the vagina, referred to as the
"o-spot."
A recent pilot study shows that injections of PRP are safe and
effective for improving female sexual function. It found that 71% of
women3 had:
- enhanced sensitivity
- greater arousal
- increased desire
- less pain during sex
- improved orgasm
Like
the P-shot, there's no downtime with the O-shot. You can resume sexual
activity within hours. And there's often an immediate improvement in
arousal. The effects can last a year or longer.
We utilize the OHS nutrition in all of the patients we treat to balance and help improve function. The Optimal Opti-Nitric is especially helpful in circulation and male/female function.
Opti-Adrenal is given to reduce the effects of stress. Opti-Iodine and Opti-thyroid to balance metabolism are used in conjunction with other therapies.
Optimal Fat-Sugar-Trim is a wonderful support for blood sugar and balanced weight. The Optimal Fruit and Veggies has 9 Structure, Function claims allowed by the FDA.
We are putting together our winter Homecoming as we write this
article. We will have, as part of our annual seminar, the use of PRP,
Biological Allografts, anti-aging and the integration of practices.
