Chapter 1
I Should Be Dead By Now

Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.
- Albert Einstein

I was driving down the Tri-State Highway outside of Chicago, Illinois, in my brand new Corvette enjoying a beautiful sunny day. Suddenly I felt an enormous ripping pain in my chest. I could barely breathe; the pain was excruciating. I immediately pulled off to the side of the road. My life virtually flashed before my eyes and I thought, "Oh my god I'm having a heart attack and I'm only twenty-one years old!"

Just as quickly as the pain came, it vanished. I was dizzy, disori­ented, and in a state of shock and disbelief as to what had just hap­pened. I looked down and noticed my new car phone, an invention that had just come out in the Chicagoland area. I picked up my phone, called my secretary, and said "I think I just had a heart attack."

Luckily for me, within a few moments I felt fine. I concluded that if it was a heart attack, it certainly didn't cause any major damage. But something was obviously wrong.

Over the next week I was examined by three of the top heart special­ists in America. Through use of the most advanced medical diagnostic devices, it was concluded after days of testing that I had been born with a deformed heart, a severe mural valve prolapse which would cause me major medical problems the rest of my life. There was no cure.

These top medical minds recommended experimental drugs or risky surgery, both of which I was told had little promise. My life expectancy was to be very short. I struggled with coming up with an effective plan of action that could solve my medical dilemma. I was twenty-one years old and had my whole life in front of me. I had to do something!

Months earlier I had attended a lecture where I heard about a Harvard medical doctor named Yiwen Y. Tang, founder of the Century Clinic in Reno, Nevada, who, during the Korean War, was a MASH surgeon. (Today the clinic is called Sierra Integrative Medical Center.) This MD had decided that standard medical procedures, drugs, and surgery were not the best way to cure and prevent diseases. He instead was using a diagnostic device developed in Germany by a Dr. Reinhold Voll called the Dermatron machine. Allegedly, in a matter of minutes, it could diagnose medical problems in the body. When the diagnosis was complete, homeopathic remedies were given to correct the imbalances and reverse and cure the disease.

At the time it sounded like hocus-pocus. The words homeostasis, holistic healing, homeopathic remedies, acupuncture meridians, energy frequencies, imbalances, and the like were used in the lecture, replacing what was, to me, the standard vernacular of germs, bacteria, viruses, drugs, surgery, and genetics. Skeptical, yet open to new ideas, I flew to Reno, Nevada, to meet this great Dr. Tang. What did I have to lose?

Upon my arrival, the doctor asked me why I was there. I looked fit and healthy, and being so young, he was slightly puzzled by my desire for diagnosis. Most of his patients were old and had severe medical problems. Wanting to see if this Dermatron machine was legitimate, I simply said, "I feel great. I just want a basic checkup."

Immediately he tested me with his magic machine. Within two minutes he had touched my heart meridian with the probe and the machine registered very low energy. The doctor looked at me, slightly concerned, and said, "Son you have a heart problem." I was shocked at how quickly the diagnosis came. Just as quickly he stated, "Let me find out where it is."

He began to touch other meridian points. When he got to the mitral valve, the machine again registered very little energy. He looked at me and said matter-of-factly, "You have a mitral valve prolapse."

Needless to say, I was quite impressed. The expert medical doctors took days of diagnostic testing to determine that I had a severe mitral valve prolapse. This "energy machine" diagnosed the problem within minutes. I looked at the doctor and said, "Yes I know, and I understand it is incurable." His response startled me. "Yes, in America it's incurable, but there are natural treatments in other countries that can reverse this problem in a matter of weeks. Unfortunately the FDA has not approved these treatments. So, yes, in America it is incurable." He then went on to explain a procedure of live cell injections—available in Switzerland or Mexico but not accessible via legal treatment in the United States—that would correct the problem by actually rebuilding the heart, ensuring that it would never return.

Quite frankly, I couldn't believe my ears. Natural treatments that work that are not approved by the FDA? Impossible!

This event happened over twenty years ago The treatment I received was inexpensive, all-natural, painless, quick, and it worked! And still to this day, that therapy is illegal in America. The most amazing part of this story is, after I received the natural treatment that was forbidden in America, I went back to the medical doctors who originally diagnosed my heart problem and asked to be tested again My request was met with indignation; I was told that being tested again was a waste of time and money because it was impossible for the medical condition to change in two months. Nevertheless, I demanded a readministering of all the tests anyway. The doctors humored me and were stunned when they found I no longer had a mitral valve prolapse.

I was so excited to share with them information about the treatment I had received which had cured my problem. Certainly these doctors would want to know about an all-natural medical treatment that could cure the incurable! Imagine my shock when I was told that the treatment I received could not have cured my disease but, rather, I must have been misdiagnosed in the first place and never had the heart deformity to begin with. I could not believe my ears! These medical doctors would not accept the facts: I had a severe mitral valve prolapse—the pictures confirmed it; and now I do not have a mitral valve prolapse—the pictures confirm it.

I began to think of all of the people that would come to these medical doctors and be told the bold-faced lie that their medical condition was incurable and could only be treated with drugs and surgery. It sickened me to know that the truth about natural cures would be hidden from millions of patients. The knowledge that the established medical community would deny the existence of natural cures, thus allowing millions of people to suffer and in many cases die, enraged me.

That event started me on a lifelong mission: searching for natural remedies that do not include drugs or surgery and natural treatments that can prevent and cure illness and disease. It also exposed me to the organizations, companies, and government agencies that do not want you to know about these cures.
Today I live a full, healthy, dynamic life. I take no drugs and have had no surgeries. I haven't had a prescription or nonprescription drug in over twenty years. Additionally, I virtually never get sick. Colds, flus, and all illnesses seem to pass me by. I have had hundreds of blood tests and other diagnostic tests performed on me every few years, Just to make sure everything is within the normal range. The medical professionals who have examined and reviewed these results are stunned and amazed at the level of health that I enjoy. Am I lucky? Is it just genetics? Or are there some specific things that a person can do to have a disease- and illness-free life and enjoy dynamic, vibrant health? Is it possible for you to go week after week, year after year, and never get sick? I strongly believe the answer is yes. This book specifically outlines the following things:

• Yes—there are all-natural, nondrug, and nonsurgical cures for most every illness and disease.

• Yes—there are organizations, government agencies, companies, and entire industries that are spending billions of dollars trying to hide these natural cures from you.

• Yes—every single nonprescription and prescription drug has adverse side effects and should virtually never be taken (with exceptions that I will explain later).

In this book, it's important to note that I am oversimplifying everything. The reason is that I am not writing this book for the medical community, the scientists, researchers, or MDs. They are not going to believe or agree with anything I say anyway. I'm writing this book in plain English so that you can understand it.
Let me point out a couple of things. Everything I say in this book is my opinion. Everything stated is what I believe to be true. All my conclusions and statements of fact are, in most cases, opinions.

It's interesting to note that medical science always presents things as fact when actually what they are really presenting is not fact at all. It's only an opinion, based on the information they have at the current time. Throughout history, medical "facts" have been proven not to be true over and over again. Therefore they are not facts at all; they are simply opinions. Medical science has stated things to be true and, in most cases, years later those things have been found not to be true. Medical science is almost always wrong, yet they present things as factual, as if they "know" the truth.

The medical industry presents itself as the only source of truth when it comes to health, illness, and disease. They use words like credible scientific evidence, scientifically tested, scientifically proven. The fact is that what they are really presenting are theories, and these theories constantly change. Here is an example of "medical facts" that have been proven to be wrong:

• Bloodletting was once proven to cure most illnesses. Now it is considered totally ineffective.

• Margarine was considered much healthier than butter. Now research suggests that the exact opposite is true.

• Eggs were considered very bad because of high cholesterol. Now research suggests that they are not bad at all, and they are actually healthy for the body.

• Alcohol in all forms was said to be 100 percent unhealthy and therefore should not be consumed. Then the medical community said that red wine is actually healthy for the heart but not other forms of alcohol. Now "medical science" says that all alcohol in moderation actually has health benefits.

• Chocolate and oily foods were touted to be a cause of acne. Now research suggests that they do not contribute in any way to acne.

• Homosexuality was once classified as a disease.

• Medical doctors touted that baby formula was much better than breast milk for children. Now the exact opposite is shown to he true.

• Milk was recommended for coating the stomach and alleviating stomach ulcers. Now it is discouraged and has been found to aggravate ulcers.

• Medical science stated that diet had absolutely no effect on disease or illness. Now we are told that diet has a huge effect on the prevention and cause of disease.

• Medical science once had scientific evidence that the removing of tonsils and appendix improved health and should be done to virtually everyone. Now the medical community has reversed that theory.

• Children with asthma were told to stay in enclosed pool areas because the humidity was good for their asthmatic condition. Now research suggests that the chlorine in the air from the pools actually aggravates and makes the asthma worse.

• The most obvious example of all is the fact that there are thousands of drugs that have been approved by the FDA because they were scientifically proven to cure or prevent disease, in addition to having been touted as safe Then, years later, they have been taken off the market because they had been newly proven to either not cure or prevent those diseases as originally thought, or those drugs were found to have such terribly adverse side effects that they are simply too dangerous for people to use.

The point is, what we are being told by the medical community as "fact" is simply not fact at all. It is the "current theory" and "thought of the day," which historically is often shown to be not true It saddens me when I see doctors on TV stating things as fact when they should be qualifying their comments with such phrases as "it appears, based an the current research we have; it seems that; we believe this to be true, however, we also know that as more research and observations are evaluated this may change in the future." This is not happening. Medical doctors are still looked on as gods. Whatever they say is taken as absolutely true. No one else can say anything about health, illness, or disease with the credibility of a medical doctor. That simply is wrong. Medical doctors are trained to do only two things: prescribe drugs or cut out parts of a person's anatomy (surgery). They are not trained at preventing disease and, most important, they have little to no training in or exposure to any treatment other than drugs or surgery.
Another example of medical facts reversed is the diet industry. First, a low-calorie diet was said to be the only way to lose weight. Then experts said, "It's not the calories, but the amount of fat you consume that will determine your weight." Now the rage of the day is "It's not the calories and it's not the fat, it's the carbohydrates that cause obesity."

1. The fact is, nobody really knows. Imagine the government's highest medical authority making this statement: "Today we have more information and knowledge about the cure and prevention of disease than ever before in the history of mankind. The advancements that have been made in just the last few years have given us new insights about the treatment and prevention of virtually all illness and disease 1. Even though just ten years ago we thought we knew the proper treatments of illness, we now know just how little we knew back then.

2. With these revolutionary breakthroughs in technology, virtually all illness and disease should be wiped out in America within the next ten years. We are on the verge of entering a phase where a person will never be sick. And if you do get sick, your doctor will be able to cure you of your illness in a matter of days. We have virtually reached the pinnacle of medical knowledge."

Sounds exciting, doesn't it? Wow! We have reached the pinnacle of medical knowledge. We know all there is to know about the cure and prevention of disease. Wow! In just ten years, because of medical science, sickness will be eliminated in America. Well, even though it sounds exciting, there is a downside: Imagine that the speech was given in 1902. Interesting, isn't it? In 1902, the people of the day believed they knew all there was to know about the cure and prevention of disease. We look back at them and are in awe at just how little they knew. Now here is the hard part for us to imagine. Twenty years from now, people will look at us and be in awe of how little we know about the cure and prevention of disease. Today we laugh at the thought of bloodletting curing a disease. Well, fifty years from now people will laugh when they look at some of the archaic and horrible treatments that we are using today in an attempt to cure illness.

As you read this book, imagine me prefacing everything I say with "It seems" or "It appears based on current observations and current research ..." "I believe this to be true."

I know that, of everything I say in this book, as more research and data becomes available, there is an excellent chance that many of these theories and opinions may be altered, modified, improved, or changed completely. Please just note this: There are virtually no medical facts. There are only medical opinions. You need to choose the opinion that makes the best sense for you.

How did I come up with my opinions? I have traveled over five million miles to bring you this information. I have been in all fifty U.S. states and traveled to countries all over the world. Over the last twenty years I have talked with thousands of health-care providers. I have listened to tens of thousands of people who have had serious medical conditions cured by natural therapies, many after drugs and surgery had failed them. I have personally seen with my own eyes, heard with my own ears, and experienced firsthand so much information that I believe I have the unique perspective necessary to come up with my my bold conclusions. The biggest acknowledgment I must give is to the tens of thousands of dedicated health-care professionals around the world who refuse to use drugs and surgery, yet routinely see their patients cured of diseases and who go on to live vibrant healthy lives. These natural health-care providers see people cured of cancer, diabetes, heart disease, chronic pain, headaches, arthritis, allergies, depression, and the list goes on. The question is no longer whether diseases can be prevented or cured faster and more effectively without drugs and surgery. The real question is why are health-care providers, who do not use drugs and surgery, being prosecuted as criminals because they cure people of cancer, AIDS, and hundreds of other chronic diseases? Natural therapies work. Natural therapies can work better than drugs or surgery. People who are using natural therapies to cure and prevent disease, and have a higher success rate with no adverse side effects than drug or surgery-type treatments, are being prosecuted for breaking the law. The question is, why are inexpensive, all-natural, safe, effective treatments being suppressed? Let's find out.
