This episode is a candid conversation between Dr Maulfair and a patient (JM), talking about the difference between standard medical philosophy and alternative medicine.

This young woman had so many chronic issues, while raising three children, that her primary care physician didn’t even have time for her. Not to mention, because all her tests were coming back “normal” — he had not a clue what to even do for her. He alluded that many of her symptoms were in her head, and that she should “just go for physical therapy and take a multivitamin.” She knew in her gut, that wasn’t going to get to the root causes of her symptoms. That’s why she came to Dr Maulfair.

That is correct. Every medication has side effects. And just because you take an over-the-counter medication doesn’t mean it doesn’t have side effects. EVERY medication has side effects! EVERY medication is TOXIC.Are you healthier because you no longer have symptoms of disease? No, you’re not. On this episode Dr Maulfair talks more about some of the basic differences between our medical philosophy and the philosophy of most other healthcare practitioners.

Is there a connection between heart disease and antibiotics? If you’re prescribed certain antibiotics and you already have a cardiovascular problem, you may want to reconsider. Fluoroquinolones are antibiotics that are commonly used to treat a variety of illnesses such as respiratory and urinary tract infections. These medicines include ciprofloxacin (Cipro), gemifloxacin (Factive), levofloxacin (Levaquin), moxifloxacin (Avelox), norfloxacin (Noroxin), and ofloxacin (Floxin). Some of these have been shown to cause damage to muscles, joints, tendons, and the central nervous system.

Contrary to what most people think, you are NOT necessarily doomed to a certain disease just because it runs in your family. You may have a genetic predisposition, but that by itself does NOT mean it’s inevitable that you’ll also get cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, high-blood pressure, etc. The gene need to be activated or “turned on.” So what turns them on? Listen to find out.Become aware of what you eat, drink, breathe, and think.

The United States spends more money on health care than any other country in the world. Yet, the mortality rate for children in the US has been higher than peer nations for the last 40 years. American children receive more vaccines than any other children on the planet. Those are facts. You connect the dots.

Diabetes is on the rise, so is gangrene, and and so are lower extremity amputations. Why is this?Elevated blood sugar is NOT diabetes. Diabetes is the disease — and AS A RESULT of the disease — the blood sugar elevates. Insulin resistance is a contributing factor. What can you do about this besides taking medications that are leading to more amputations?There ARE other things you can do besides taking a drug to lower your blood sugar. Again, elevated blood sugar is NOT diabetes — it is a SYMPTOM of diabetes. If you’re just treating the symptom and not the problem, don’t be surprised if you don’t get the results you would like. You CAN live a higher quality of life. Just get educated.

If this wasn’t the truth and it wasn’t so serious, it would actually be humorous. Unfortunately, it IS the the truth, and it’s one more example of the sad state of affairs for the modern “health care” system and the way most doctors practice medicine.Chemical gastritis in this person’s stomach was CAUSED by medications that are supposed to reduce inflammation. Does that make any sense to you?Dr Maulfair also talks about how important the health of your intestinal tract is to your overall health. You may be shocked to hear this!
