Hepatitis B Cured by Mother Nature

March 4, 2018/3 Comments/in Conditions /by Dr. Todd Stone

Chronic Hepatitis B is “Progressive.”

That sounds like it might be a good thing, but it means that Medicine cannot change it’s course as it progressively worsens.

Medical Prognosis

An estimated 1 million persons per year globally, including at least 5000 persons annually in the United States, die from chronic hepatitis B disease. The cumulative probability of survival is 84% at 5 years and 68% at 10 years. (1) And about half die within five years once they reach chronic active hepatitis with cirrhosis. (2)

The course of Chronic Hepatitis B looks like this. Liver damage, cirrhosis or liver scarring, liver cancer, and finally liver failure and death. (3) In 2015, hepatitis B resulted in 887 000 deaths, mostly from complications (including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma). (4)

Over 20,000 medical charts were analyzed of patients with Chronic Hepatitis B. When patients were divided into those who use Traditional Chinese Medicine, and those who did not, something remarkable appeared. In the 10 years following diagnosis, the patients taking plant medicines had a 56% lower rate of death, and a 50% lower rate of liver cancer. (4a) (4b) . All were treated using modern medical protocol.

Most people diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B infection need treatment for the rest of their lives. Treatment helps reduce the risk of liver disease and prevents you from passing the infection to others. Treatment for chronic hepatitis B is Antiviral drugs such as Tenofovir. (5)

The antiviral pharmaceuticals that have been developed are generally less effective than one would like. Viruses can replicate rapidly giving rise to mutations that make them resistant to drugs. (6)

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) uses Plant Medicines. Chinese Doctors use Traditional Plant Medicines alongside Modern Pharmaceutical Medicine.

They use whatever works. Often mixing Modern and Traditional approaches.

Jiedu Yanggan Gao is a blend of plants in a Traditional Chinese Medicine for liver disease . Twenty eight years ago Chinese doctors tested their Traditional Medicine by Modern Medical scientific standards, a double blind, randomized clinical trial. (7)

Ninety six patients with chronic hepatitis B were divided into two groups. The observation group (OG) received Jiedu Yanggan Gao. The control group (CG) received barley and wheat germ with a “charred fermented mixture of several medical herbs.”

My guess as to why they made this comparison rather than comparing to a placebo, is that they were comparing strong medicine to weak medicine. Spinach is medicine to our bodies for it’s nutrients and antioxidants, but it is weak medicine when it comes to healing disease.

I already shared the results of treatment (aka Prognosis) with Modern Medicine. Does Traditional Medicine offer a better Prognosis?

They took their medicine daily for 5 months. Afterward, the doctors concluded that “the total effective rate was 74.5% in the strong medicine group and 24.4% in the weak medicine group.” They used labs that detect liver damage and inflammatory markers for the Hepatitis Virus to determine effectiveness.

The Doctors reported there was ” a 15% cure rate in the strong medicine group,” those receiving Jiedu Yanggan Gao, and zero in the Control Group (CG), those receiving weak medicine.

Science suggests that Jiedu Yanggan Gao offers healing 74.5% of the time, and cures 15% of the patients.

That was at 5 months. I wonder how many would resolve if you kept taking this Traditional Medicine that was able to achieve a healing trend in 3 out of 4 patients with Chronic Hepatitis B in 5 months?

Personally, I prefer using the rich tradition of plant medicines and the 3000 years of natural medicine history instead of scientific “proof.” Science manipulation is possible. History and Tradition are VALUE passed from family to family for 3000 years; “give your daughter dandelion if her cramps are that bad.” No conflicts of interest. You could grow it yourself if you wanted, or you could save the time and buy from the local herbal medicine doctor.

It wasn’t very profitable, though. It was more about people taking care of other people. You wanted to give the medicine maker a few bucks for the time it saved you to make it yourself, and the results you trusted it contained.

But nobody could get RICH, because if you charged too much, people would make their own darn medicine.

Pharmaceuticals have replaced Mother Nature as our primary medicine, and warned us to NOT TRUST Her Medicine. The top selling Pharmaceutical in America makes 12 Billion every year! One example is Big Pharma recommends doctors prescribe Humira to manage Autoimmune Diseases!

True Health resolved the diseases a Billion Dollar Drug “manages,” with Plant Medicines. (8)

Corporate profit is a conflict of interest.

The most profitable drug in America is Humira. It costs $50,000 per month for the privilege of receiving it’s management of MS, Psoriasis, and Ulcerative Colitis. And it’s immune suppression effects could kill you.

Plant medicines achieved complete resolution of Ulcerative Colitis, for less than $40 per month. Ulcerative Colitis an “incurable disease” that Humira is prescribed for, to slow it’s progression. Plant Medicines reversed it’s progression, back to healthy young man. Lab verified. (9)

The Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jiedu Yanggan Gao, contains these ten plants.

Wormwood, Astragalus, Dandelion, Plantain, Chinese Sage, Blessed Thistle, Chrysanthemum, Sarsaparilla, White Peony, and Snake Needle Grass.

Traditional Native American Medicine used the same Plants.

The Natives didn’t get much say in how America “takes care” of their people, though, when Profit came to stay.

If you are one of the unlucky 20% that become chronic and you are progressing toward liver failure, medicine offers slowing the progression. Gilead pharmaceuticals proudly announced that their antiviral medicines made them 27.7 Billion dollars in 2016. (10)

Tenofovir, their number one seller, costs over $3000 per month to slow the progression of Chronic Hepatitis B.

In contrast, Healing Traditions offers a Traditional Plant Medicine, Jiedu Yanggan Gao, for less than 40 bucks a month.

True Health offers Jiedu Yanggan Gao in our Online Store, so you can try it for yourself!

According to Medical Science, you have a 15% chance of complete resolution, and a really good chance (74.5%) that you will begin to feel better, instead of worsening.

Healing IBS and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis

February 22, 2018/2 Comments/in Conditions /by Dr. Todd Stone

Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS is a disabling condition.

This woman planned her life around bathrooms. IBS alternates between miserable constipation and urgent diarrhea, and it shifts suddenly. Wherever she went, she had to map out the bathrooms every step of the way. And still, she had to carry extra panties in her purse for accidents.

Nobody could see her disability. She still had to earn a living, put up with a hurtful husband, and make more than the average number of doctor’s visits. She had been asking for help for 40 years.

Her doctors couldn’t find anything wrong with her for 30 years. Then after 20 years in an abusive marriage, they found that she was tired of it. Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis.

Another invisible disability. She divorced and kept going, but now every step was like walking through mud that was neck deep. Her thyroid hormone replacement lifted her energy, but she still rated energy as 3-4 out of 10 on her intake forms.

After 40 years of struggle she called True Health. Her disability had increased in intensity and now included a mustache and beard, frequent insomnia, shoulder pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, brain fog, and weight gain. Plus more time in the bathroom for facial hair waxing.

I don’t understand how a person in pain and discomfort can be told by a doctor that she is fine. Keep reading to find out how many things we found wrong with her when you care enough to take helping seriously!

We tested everything on this woman. Food allergy / sensitivity, stool analysis, adrenal hormones, and our comprehensive blood testing. When I received her records from her last doctor, there was one page with three test results. No wonder they couldn’t find what was wrong, they didn’t look.

Our testing offered approximately 30 pages of results. We discovered that her thyroid problem was actually an autoimmune disease, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis. Doctors tend to not even test for this, because it doesn’t change what they prescribe.

I was taught that if a problem is autoimmune, there is always an immune stress that triggers the disease. Doesn’t that make sense?

We found three. The stool analysis identified Pseudomonas bacteria and a parasite called Enterobius Vermicularis, also known as pinworms. Pseudomonas is an antibiotic resistant bacteria that you catch by visiting the doctor. Pinworms is a childhood infection.

Her food sensitivity testing revealed that her immune system was reacting to gluten. That meant that every time she ate bread or wheat products, it would cause more destruction to her thyroid gland.

The last discovery was low adrenal hormone levels. I was taught to call that adrenal fatigue or exhaustion. And that provided the whole story.

As a child, she gets a pinworm infection. Her parents take her to the doctor because her tummy hurts and she has diarrhea. They can’t find anything wrong.

She keeps asking for help for the next 30 years, and instead of helping, they infected her with an antibiotic resistant bacteria. Infections cause inflammation, and an inflamed gut begins to react to gluten. The inflammation causes exhaustion of her adrenal glands and autoimmune thyroid problems.

Why didn’t her doctors, for 40 years, look closely enough to find what was making her miserable?

I don’t know for sure, but the medical playbook says the suggested treatment of IBS is “Offer support and understanding.” The medical playbook is the Merck Manual. It is what insurance guidelines are based on. That means that anything else, any diagnostic testing or treatment other than “offer support and understanding” is not covered.

Doctors who rely on insurance coverage to pay their bills are stuck with these guidelines.

Insurance kicked me out years ago, for not following the rules. (Healing a medical condition)

After 40 years, she finally understands her suffering and disability. She finally had the right diagnosis. The root cause.

The next question is, do I have medicine strong enough to resolve pinworms, antibiotic resistant bacteria, and heal her inflamed thyroid and exhausted adrenals. Does Mother Nature, my partner in healing, have the strength of medicine to resolve these problems?

I prescribed True GI Cleanse because it eliminates all infections. One of the ingredients, Larrea, is research proven to kill the brain eating amoeba. This parasite swims into your nose while you swim in warm pools or hot springs. It climbs up the olfactory nerve into your brain, and actually consumes your brain. You have two weeks to live and medicine has nothing to slow or stop you from dying.

Researcher in Arizona heard that the native Americans used this plant for clearing infections. Desperate for a resource to help, they tested Mother Nature in a petri dish and Larrea killed the brain eating amoeba.

She had to avoid gluten and beans too, but in just a few weeks, she felt 40 years of getting worse, getting better. I call that a healing trend. We added True Thyroid Repair and True Stress Resilience.

RESULTS: In just over 3 months, her health was completely restored. I still remember the visit where she reported “no more accidents.” I felt the vulnerability of living as an adult with frequent accidents, and it really made an emotional impact. I remember where we stood, and her vulnerable but happy smile.

She was energized, pain free, and every symptom of distress was gone. After 40 years, and 3 months. Three months of True Health and Mother Nature healed 40 years of disability.

Healing Chronic Pain

February 15, 2018/0 Comments/in Conditions /by Dr. Todd Stone

Do You Remember When The Pain Began?

I bet you remember exactly. Because when pain becomes chronic, it consumes your life.

If you have chronic pain, I bet your faith in doctors has diminished. Especially when you hit double digits. This woman told me that I was the 10th doctor she had asked to help her.

Read her story to learn how we helped her resolve chronic pain.

If you decide to give True Health a try, our clinic policy is that you don’t pay if we don’t help. I’m not sure why all doctors aren’t as dedicated to finding the root cause of your pain as you are. I promise you that I am.

This is the story of a young, healthy woman whose pain began a few months after an appendectomy.

Her entire back and down her left leg would reach 8 or 9 out of ten on a pain scale, from the strain of a 30 minute car ride or sitting at a desk for too long. She had not felt a 0 out of 10, no pain, for 3 years.

She hadn’t given up though, so when a friend told her how Dr. Stone helped him with his pain, she called True Health and doctor number ten.

As I read her story the evening before her initial exam, I noticed that the lines after “Other doctors seen for this condition:” listed way more than average. My thyroid patients usually list 1 or 2. They are able to struggle through and live life, in exhaustion.

Chronic pain stops life.

For Rachel, it wasn’t completely disabling. She was able to work and live life. With frequent stops. And the frequency of stops was increasing, so she was willing to try anything.

When she first visited True Health and stood in front of me, I felt her doubt.

I am somewhat empathic. I don’t know for sure what I am. Sometimes it feels more like an awkward, irritable, jerk. My understanding of empathic is that I feel the pain of other people.

I choose who I feel, and I have to have permission. Calling True Health for help, grants permission.

I have to really focus on a person to feel their physical pain, but emotional pain jumps out at me. When I felt her doubt, I also felt my own anxiety as I began her exam.

I began with a standard neurological exam for nerve compression in the low back, since that was her loudest or most intense pain. I was lightly perspiring from the anxiety, until my exam revealed that every nerve root indicator tested weak. What? I’ve never seen that before!

Now I was sweating. I didn’t understand what I was seeing, and I didn’t know what to do about it! Was I in over my head? I nervously proceeded with my best effort.

**Her neurologist was so certain t**hat it wasn’t disc or nerve compression, that he didn’t need an MRI to know.

My testing disagreed with a prestigious neurologist, and it didn’t make sense to me. She didn’t have a history of severe physical trauma, and it would take something severe to bulge every disc in her back.

I wasn’t sure what to do, so I picked one nerve indicator muscle weakness and tested for body positions that improve the weakness. Normally, bending or twisting a certain way will decrease the nerve pressure of a disc bulge enough to restore strength.

I couldn’t find a body position that would improve her strength. (Add a 3rd level of sweating.)

I wanted to look like I knew what I was doing to ease her doubt as well as my sweating. Nerves tend to be predictable. Tap the knee and leg kicks out. If it doesn’t, it means something very predictable.

Her body wasn’t responding predictably. I had not seen this version of chronic pain before.

I kept on with my best effort. She had doctors tell her before, that “it wasn’t something they were familiar with.” They tested for one named condition, like Rheumatoid Arthritis, and after telling her she tested negative, sent her home as if they had completed their job.

Relieving pain is a doctors job and I take it seriously. My best effort took several visits to even begin to make sense of what was in front of me. But she stuck with my best effort because she felt results. A healing trend.

I hadn’t been able to help her chronic pain, but she noticed that her runny nose was less runny on her second visit.

By her 3rd visit, she could feel that the pain was changing. Some changes felt good, and others felt bad, but it was different and that was encouraging.

Her 2nd visit had the help of more clues. Lab work was back, offering a look inside this woman. Results showed a pattern that meant high testosterone. I asked about beards. “No.” I asked about PMS, and she said “severe.” She had such severe cramping during her period that a few times she passed out from the pain.

I don’t think PMS is “normal.” It’s a symptom of imbalance and body needs. What did she need to find comfort?

I was taught that the week before a woman’s period is Liver time. The liver eliminates the hormones that thicken the uterus lining for implantation. The liver effectively reducing hormone levels offers ease and comfort to having a period. She needed care for her liver, so the first prescription was N-Acetyl-Cysteine, an amino acid.

Cysteine is used in the hospital for acute poisoning.

She later reported that one weekend she put out ant poison, and the next day her back hurt like a mother. She took extra Cysteine and felt her pain ease. Meeting needs.

Her labs revealed immune stress and inflammation. The immune stress appeared to be an intestinal parasite. We don’t know for sure because my best effort to resolve immune stress and inflammation was a plant called Morinda, and after a week of Morinda along with Cysteine, she drove 12 hours and her pain was 30% better than her last trip.

Her pain was getting better for the first time in 3 years, so we waited and watched.

If she had a chronic infection in her gut, which her labs suggested, it would explain the multiple disc bulges without severe trauma. I remembered a professor describing this possibility, but I hadn’t seen it in a patient before. The infected organs cause spasm of a muscle called the Psoas. It crosses your hip and it’s attached to the spine above. When it spasms, it pulls on the spine, causing multiple discs to bulge.

My anxiety decreased with the recollection of this mechanism of back pain. I understood that it was going to take multiple steps to resolve her pain, but at least now I knew the steps.

Her neurologist was right, it wasn’t a disc herniation, it was muscle spasm pulling the disc outward and compressing the nerves. The cause of the spasm was a chronic infection creating inflammation in her liver and gut.

I bet that you can relate to this medical concept. Last time I had the flu, I swear that my hair hurt. Inflammation amplifies pain, and inflammation is caused by invasion or trauma. With no history of trauma other than appendectomy, invasion made sense and relieved another level of sweating.

Her worst pain was after sitting still for awhile. Stillness is how you treat trauma. When stillness aggravates pain, it indicates inflammation. A psoas muscle spasm would definitely be aggravated by sitting still, because sitting tightens the psoas muscle.

When the spasm is caused by inflammation, the healing need is Lymphatic cleansing.

Your lymphatic system is like your cardiovascular system. A system of veins and vessels, but the lymphatic system removes inflammation and doesn’t have a pump, like the heart. It “pumps” inflammation out of your body from the stimulation of movement. So when you sit still and it hurts more, the lymphatic system needs care.

Vitamin C is a basic need of the Lymphatic System, and Morinda offers Vitamin C along with other lymph cleansing attributes, along with the power to kill a parasite.

It only took a week to feel the 30% improvement on her long drive. I’d call that a healing trend. The intensity, frequency, and duration of your pain, is decreasing. We’re winning.

By the time we retested her labs on her 3rd month of True Health, her pain intensity, frequency, and duration were improved by 40%. Still not a single moment of no pain, but the healing trend was clear.

Her lab retest showed a pattern that indicated a chronic virus. I had prescribed a plant called Holy Basil on visit 5, which is a research proven anti-viral medicine. Great, already covered!

At this point, Rachel is able to respond to almost every pain flare up on her own, using the plants and acupressure. She was gathering control of life stopping pain.

Three more months of trending, and another look inside, lab time. We have reached a pretty cool milestone on her journey. No pain for half of a day. The first time she had felt no pain in 3 years!

This lab showed that inflammation was now subclinical, meaning the lab didn’t even mark it as a problem. Next we saw adrenal exhaustion and hypoglycemia as her primary need. I prescribed Ginseng, which has over 8,000 published research articles, mostly on increasing vitality.

Hypoglycemia brought more headaches so I prescribed Cramp Bark and Motherwort. Plants that are proven to offer relief of tension, cramping and spasm.

It took 10 months before she reported no headaches between her visits, but we kept them trending. Slowly but surely. It took 2 years to reach 1 full day of no pain. Plants and acupressure, and Dr. Stone every 3 weeks.

It took another three months to string together multiple days of no pain.

And another three months to feel strong and secure enough to stop taking birth control pills for her severe cramping. Birth control took her pain away, and she had been scared to stop them and possibly face that pain again.

She did face some pain, but with her plant medicines and acupressure, she was able to control it and get it trending toward ease and comfort. Every cycle was getting easier, until finally, she felt the strength of motherhood. After nearly 3 years of True Health and putting up with Dr. Stone, she is moving on to the next chapter in her life.

I am glad that I offered my best effort, despite my confusion and uncertainty. In the last 2 years, there has not been a pain that could survive True Health and my best effort. If you’d like to challenge my healing abilities, grab a Membership!.

Regional Pain Syndrome with a Root Cause of Lyme Disease

February 11, 2018/0 Comments/in Conditions /by Dr. Todd Stone

One ordinary day, a man wakes up to face the journey of healing Lyme Disease.

Imagine that. Yesterday you were able to live life with no sign of Lyme Disease, but this morning you can’t even stand up. Your wife has already left for work, so you crawl to get your clothes. You crawl to the car. And you crawl into the nearest Medical Emergency Room.

The ER doctor diagnoses a lack of Prednisone in your foot and ankle, your first regional pain. The doctor cares for your pain with an injection and sends you home.

That is how they care for football players, because there is nothing more important than scoring touchdowns. They suppress the pain of an injury, so the player can get back in the game.

This guy wasn’t scoring touchdowns, but they sent him back in to the game of life, unable to protect his injury.

The suppression wore off quickly, so he calls the specialist. The specialist diagnoses Reactive Arthritis, which is defined medically as joint pain caused by an infection in the intestines, kidneys or bladder. The specialist prescribes Methotrexate. A drug that blocks DNA synthesis, aka. cellular repair and healing. The medical playbook lists Methotrexate as a primary treatment for autoimmune diseases, to suppress the immune system, and for cancer to slow rapidly spreading tumors.

Methotrexate is listed as a primary treatment for Reactive Arthritis, but I don’t understand the logic. Its suppressive effects seem contraindicated for resolving an infection or for healing an injury.

To be honest, my logic feels that it is contraindicated for living, but I feel things differently than most.

Suppression did relieve his pain. Until his doctor said, “This is a pretty harsh medicine. Your pain is resolved, so we’ll wean you off.” He soon found out that his pain wasn’t resolved, it was suppressed.

Disappointed, he drives to John Hopkins Medical Center, to see a prestigious Doctor.

His prestigious doctor prescribes Methotrexate. Yes, the exact same drug as before. But if prestige said it was the right medicine, he rationalized that maybe he just needed to take it longer.

Unfortunately, this time, it wasn’t able to suppress his pain.

Next he drove all the way to Buffalo to be seen by the Sisters of Mercy. To their credit, they ran some additional tests to dig deeper, and found Lyme Disease. I have seen cases of regional pain syndromes that turned out to be Lyme Disease, so this was a valuable clue.

He reported that they did nothing to help his Lyme Disease pain, however.

The pain occupies his mind and conversation, leading to a friend sharing the help she received from True Health. Feeling hopeless, he visits my very un-prestigious backyard. (Unless you hold Mother Nature in high regard)

He is exhausted and his pain is spreading by the time he finds True Health. He is having headaches and visual disturbances, and now the region of his shoulders are in pain.

His labs reveal inflammation and adrenal exhaustion. The exhaustion may have been a result of his 2 year journey, because chronic infections like Lyme Disease wear people out. And all immune challenges cause inflammation.

I tested until I found a plant that strengthened his weakness, called Manjistha.

Manjistha is a plant native to India, China and some areas of Africa. Its traditional use is for the treatment of spider and snake bites, because it flushes the poison through the lymphatic system. It is also known to be an immune stimulant. My logic suggests that immune strength would be more indicated for a chronic bacterial infection, as the diagnoses of Reactive Arthritis suggests, or for a chronic Lyme Disease infection, as the Sisters of Mercy suggested.

His journey has now lasted 2 long years. He rated his pain as 10 out of 10 when he walked in to True Health. His pain would no longer be suppressed by harsh medicine.

Mother Nature offers her strength for 6 weeks and he reports that his energy is 7-8 out of 10, and that his shoulder pain is gone. He described his foot pain as “slightly sore.”

**Manjistha is research proven to win against our culture’s chronic infection.**

Candida is an infection attracted by high sugar and white flour diets. If you don’t learn your lesson, Candida can become systemic. That means it reaches your blood, and travels to your brain, causing brain fog and depression.

We don’t know for sure what he had. Sisters of Mercy identified a Lyme Disease infection. His specialist said it was a bacterial infection in his gut. Neither offered results from their diagnosis, which is the only thing that matters. Manjistha defeated every possibility and returned life to his disability.

True Health has a medicine for the weird cases. I use it more than any other in my clinic. In our online store, people aren’t ordering my most significant medicine. I am guessing that health seekers don’t understand the indication for True GI Cleanse and True Lymphatic Cleanse.

They are for the weird cases. The cases that defy logic and medicine. If that sounds like you, I’d make those two my next prescription. When you buy 2 or more, you get free shipping.

If that didn’t work, I’d make True Health my next destination. CLICK HERE to learn about our “Metabolic Tune-Up!.
