THE FISH OIL BLOOD THINNING CONCERN At a recent business meeting I introduced a blog that I had written on June 26 on this website regarding a comparison of fish oil to Krill (little crustaceans). Here is the link if you haven’t read it: https://www.fibrowellnesscenter.com/2014/06/26/krill-krill-question/. Studies show that presently there are two concerns with krill. […]
Twenty four years working with fibromyalgia patients has given me the opportunity to learn from many successes along with failures. Since 2005 through trial and error, I finally developed what has turned out to be a very successful protocol. I have patients that have been symptom free for 7 years enjoying a normal state of […]
So many conditions and health problems involve nutritional imbalances that lead the body into either a state of deficiency or excess. A recent study of 400,000 people concluded that vitamin supplements “have no clear value” and yet a study of 14,000 men who were taking a daily multivitamin found it reduced cancer by 8 percent. […]
Earlier today I went to the super market to pick up essentials. One item I wanted to pick up was greek yogurt. As I stood in front of the dairy cooler I started my comparison of ingredients in each of the containers. If you’ve shopped for yogurt recently the problem lies in the number of […]
There is definitely a debate concerning whether or not Krill oil is better than Omega-3 fish oil.

However, omega-3 fats are found in triglyceride form while krill oil are found in […]

The study involved […]
FRUSTRATION! There are times in which I wish my concern for my patients was not so overwhelming. As a doctor I have been told my feeling for my patients health conditions needs to be tempered. I’ve never taken my patient’s health or their treatment lightly. I get my emotional highs and satisfaction from seeing my […]
It’s been a very busy past few weeks since I have had the opportunity to write another blog. This one I’m sure will cause a number of responses. One of the reasons why I have such strong emotional feelings for all fibromyalgia patients and wrote my book, is an event that occurred in 2000 here in […]
In working “with” fibromyalgia patients over the past 25 years I have found the one factor that measured the success or failure of each individual was patience. Since almost all fibromyalgia patients have tried literally every conceivable potion, program or drug for their condition, it seems practical that when a truly viable protocol comes along […]
After taking a week to complete my taxes and catching up on the treatment of the many patients that came into the clinic from the EXPO I find that there is so much more to discuss. The EXPO was not only very well attended but was attended, in my opinion, by very knowledgeable individuals. It […]
