In today’s medical climate, providing comprehensive, accurate information about safe alternatives is one of Dr. Dean’s passions. Using the internet to present and publish valuable health information has been such a blessing to millions of people around the world. There is just no disputing the fact that the internet is a powerful agent of health freedom.  But the power of the Internet is like a two-edged sword. The internet can also deliver misinformation and uncorroborated opinion with equal efficiency. The caring and the careless co-exist side by side in the Internet universe. What can be done?

Most people do not think about magnesium when they think about Fake News but even the most innocent mineral is a victim of internet foul play. There are no electronic filters, no apps that are going to tell us what is fact and what is fiction.  Instead, we must use the tool of critical thinking, of discernment, to determine whats accurate and beneficial to our health and well-being. 

Tonight, on our first radio show of 2019,  we gather with Dr. Carolyn Dean to talk about how to find the truth about nutrients on the internet. Youll love hearing the beneficial interactions with our callers and hosts alike including the body/mind connection, identifying the conflict in the conflict basis of disease and much more!

Magnesium is a mineral used by every organ in your body, especially your heart, muscles, and kidneys. If you suffer from unexplained fatigue or weakness, abnormal heart rhythms or even muscle spasms and eye twitches, low levels of magnesium could be to blame.

Most magnesium is stored in your bones and organs, where it is used for many biological functions. Yet, it\'s quite possible to be deficient and not know it, which is why magnesium deficiency has been dubbed the \"invisible deficiency.\"

Most people do not think about magnesium when they think about how to prevent chronic disease, but it plays an essential role. For instance, there have been several significant studies about magnesium\'s role in keeping your metabolism running efficiently—specifically in terms of insulin sensitivity, glucose regulation, and protection from type 2 diabetes.

Higher magnesium intake reduces the risk of impaired glucose and insulin metabolism and slows progression from pre-diabetes to diabetes in middle-aged Americans. Researchers stated, \"Magnesium intake may be particularly beneficial in offsetting your risk of developing diabetes if you are high risk.\"

Multiple studies have also shown that higher magnesium intake is associated with a higher bone mineral density in both men and women, and research from Norway has even found an association between magnesium in drinking water and a lower risk of hip fractures.

Magnesium may even help lower your risk of cancer, and a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that higher intakes of dietary magnesium were associated with a lower risk of colorectal tumors.

Results from the meta-analysis indicated that for every 100-mg increase in magnesium intake, the risk of colorectal tumor decreased by 13 percent, while the risk of colorectal cancer was lowered by 12 percent. The researchers noted magnesium\'s anti-cancer effects may be related to its ability to reduce insulin resistance, which may positively affect the development of tumors.

Just consider the first seven - out of sixty-five - health conditions related to magnesium deficiency and count on your fingers how many people you know plagued with these conditions:

1. Acid reflux. Spasm of the lower esophageal sphincter at the juncture of the stomach can leave the sphincter open causing acid reflux, GERD or heartburn. Magnesium relieves esophageal spasms.

2. Adrenal fatigue. Adrenal fatigue follows after a time of chronic stress, anxiety, and panic attacks and it seems to be occurring in epidemic proportions. Adrenaline, noradrenaline, and cortisol (elevated in chronic stress) deplete magnesium. Stress causes excess elimination of magnesium through the urine, further compounding magnesium deficiency. Stress is such an overworked word, but we all suffer physical, emotional, and mental stress every day, and every bit of it drains magnesium.

3. Alzheimer’s disease. Magnesium blocks the neuroinflammation caused by the inappropriate deposition of calcium and other heavy metals in brain cells. Magnesium is at work even before the inflammation appears, guarding cell ion channels and not allowing heavy metals to enter. Picometer, stabilized ionic magnesium (ReMag) easily enters cells and can help eliminate heavy metals and solubilize calcium.

4. Angina. The pain of angina is caused by severe muscle spasms in heart muscles, which are caused by magnesium deficiency. The heart ventricles have the highest levels of magnesium in the whole body; this is why magnesium is so important for the pumping function of the heart.

5. Anxiety and panic attacks. When the adrenals are no longer protected by sufficient magnesium, the fight-or-flight hormones, adrenaline and noradrenaline become more easily triggered. When they surge erratically, they cause a rapid pulse, high blood pressure, and heart palpitations. The more magnesium-deficient you are, the more exaggerated is the adrenaline response. Magnesium calms the nervous system, relaxes muscle tension, and lowers the pulse rate, helping to reduce anxiety and panic attacks.

6. Arthritis. Magnesium can help dissolve calcium that builds up in joint spaces. It also can treat the pain and inflammation of arthritis as a safe substitute for pain medication.

7. Asthma. Histamine production and bronchial spasms (in the smooth muscles of the bronchial tract) both increase simply as a result of magnesium deficiency.

AND THE LIST GOES ON - again, 65 conditions related to magnesium deficiency.

Tonight, on our final radio show of 2018, we will complete our year of radio programming with a review of the most important statements made that have been related to how to fully resolve magnesium deficiency and the Who\'s Who of Magnesium Advocates who are on board with that mission!

You’ve heard the saying “To err is human, to forgive is divine”? In the medical world, to err is human, to test is divine. I’m not a huge fan of laboratory tests because the results are compared to average values in our unhealthy population, not to optimal values. And errors can occur. I tell my readers that lab testing should be used to confirm what our senses and intuition tells us. But all too often doctors place all their faith in tests and only glance at the results, looking for numbers above or below normal.

Tonight on my weekly radio program I\'m going to do a comprehensive presentation on the pros and cons of lab testing:

• Blood

• Saliva

• Hair analysis

• Stool Analysis

• Genetic Testing

• X-rays, CT scans, MRIs,

• EEGs, EKGs

When it comes to supplementing with magnesium, I do not think that the majority of people require testing. Magnesium is extremely safe, and it does produce a laxative effect when you take too much at one time or when you are saturated with magnesium after several months of supplementation. Even with ReMag, which is fully absorbed at the cellular level, when cell saturation is reached you will experience the laxative effect. I encourage you to follow your magnesium deficiency symptoms and the 100 Factors Related to Magnesium Deficiency as guides to how much magnesium you should take.

Since most people are deficient and magnesium is one of the safest nutrients, I tell people to just start taking it and keep track of symptoms, and you will see for yourself how it’s working for you. This process is called an oral clinical trial.

There may be other situations where a diagnostic test can be beneficial and we\'ll talk about these tonight on my show as well as what type of test you may want to have if you decide to test your magnesium sufficiency as you continue your supplementation program. Please join us tonight for TO TEST IS DIVINE- DIAGNOSING AND FIXING NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES along with a wide range of health topics and safe solutions. You will love hearing the beneficial interactions with our callers and hosts alike including the body/mind connection, identifying the \'conflict\' in the \'conflict basis\' of disease and much more!!

Tonight  Dr. Dean will be joined by two amazing, visionary women who have dedicated their work and lives to the practice of homeopathy - a specific paradigm within natural medicine that can be a highly effective approach to health and wellness. In our first hour, we\'ll be joined by Paola Brown, President of Homeopathy Choice, a non-profit organization dedicated to advocating for the rights of consumers and professionals to use and have access to homeopathy. We\'ll learn about her own journey of health recovery using homeopathic remedies and her charge to protect homeopathy and its practice from being disrupted by the FDA. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has proposed new guidelines for homeopathic remedies that would give it the power to ban properly formulated homeopathic products currently legal under the Food Drug & Cosmetic Act which governs the FDA.

In hour two, we\'ll be joined by Mary Aspinwall,  a Classical Homeopath (registered with the North American Society of Homeopaths) and CEASE practitioner. She has helped thousands of people return to health since she began her practice in 1995. Mary studied at the College of Homeopathy in London and is a graduate of The Dynamis School of Advanced Homeopathy, the world’s leading organization involved in testing new homeopathic remedies.

Mary designed a range of homeopathy kits that are international bestsellers and has spent the past 20 years educating the public as a professional speaker, teacher, and advocate. She is a former national spokesperson for the Irish Society of Homeopaths and currently offers her services as an expert contributor in the U.S. She is the author of Basic Guide to Homeopathy, editor of The Clinical Medicine Guide, and regular columnist for Homeopathy Today.

Let\'s also remember that our very own Dr. Carolyn Dean has an amazing journey with homeopathy, being one of the only doctors who worked successfully with homeopathic remedies and AIDS patients in the 1990s.  Dr. Dean\'s passion for homeopathy and her determination to remain forever on the leading edge of medicine has been incorporated into many of her protocols and can even be considered part of the inspiration behind the development of the RnA Drops!

Once again Dr. Carolyn Dean is right on time with a special handbook designed to provide you with safe, natural alternatives to manage your health and the health of your family during cold and flu season.

We\'re going to talk about these resources in great detail on tonight\'s weekly radio show.  I hope you can join us.

Every year the flu vaccine turns out to be less and less effective. If you google “2017-2018 flu season” you are hit with scary headlines that tell you to be very afraid of the flu, to get vaccinated, and to take antiviral medications. The fear instilled by the media who think they are  “warning the public” is enough to make you sick because they have no real solutions!

Yet, when you google “2017-2018 flu vaccine” the headlines claim that this season’s flu shots are less effective than usual. And that’s saying something because Dr. Dean wrote a detailed blog that in general flu vaccines don\'t work and their effectiveness is somewhere between 4-6%!

In natural medicine, we think of colds and flu as the body’s way of eliminating mucus. In Total Biology, colds and flu are evidence of resolution of conflict. The mucus builds up due to excessive eating or poor eating habits, lack of rest, overwork, temperature changes, conflict, worry or climate changes as in the fall and spring. To remedy this, eat wholesome foods and get enough rest. At the onset of seasonal weather changes, take hot and cold showers to acclimatize the skin. Short thirty-second blasts of cold will do.

If a cold or flu begins, don’t fight it and don’t get mad. Take some time off, rest and heal. If you go to work, you bring your germs for others to share. If you take medications, you just put more toxins into your system and the drugs won’t really help because viruses, which are not killed by antibiotics, cause 90% of colds and flu. If anything, drugs suppress the condition and drive it deeper into your system, so it potentially can come back later in a more virulent form. Antibiotics also encourage the overgrowth of yeast, which causes more problems.

First aid, supplements, homeopathy and good old common sense all factor into the treatment and prevention of colds and flu and tonight on our internet based radio show, we\'ll be talking with Dr. Carolyn Dean about how to Prepare for Cold and Flu Season along with a wide range of health topics and safe solutions. You will love hearing the beneficial interactions with our callers and hosts alike including the body/mind connection, identifying the \'conflict\' in the \'conflict basis\' of disease and much more!!

The holidays are here and boy are they fun! Some people think it\'s the most wonderful time of the year and I [Ginney] am one of those people.

After all these years, I don\'t even TRY to kid myself that I am not going to enjoy my favorite holiday treats this time of year.  Oh, yes, I could demonize my favorite Queen Anne Chocolate Covered Maraschino Cherries or psyche myself out about the extra glass of really yummy red wine I will drink this Thanksgiving but I am not going to do that.

What I am going to do is have LOTS of ReAline on hand and detox as I go.  That\'s right - instead of waiting for some crazy fad detox diet to start on January 1st, I am building my detox program the safe, healthy way every day the holidays are here so I can enjoy my favorite time of year and feel good in my body as well!.

ReAline was the second formula that  Dr. Dean worked on after the RnA Drops. The current formula contains:

Vitamin B1 (thiamine from Saccharomyces Boulardi) (natural source) – 4mg

Vitamin B2 ( as Riboflavin 5 phosphate) – 4 mg

Niacin (from Saccharomyces Cells) - 10 mg

Vitamin B6 Pyridoxine 5 phosphate – 4 mg

Folic acid (as Quatrefolic®) – 200 mcg

Vitamin B12 (as Methylcobalamin) – 250 mcg

Biotin (from Saccharomyces Cells) - 50 mcg

L-Methionine (natural source) – 500mg

L-Taurine (natural source) – 200mg

Pantothenic Acid (from Saccharomyces Cells) - 6 mg

ReAline is a specific formula that provides the perfect building blocks to enhance and assist the body in detoxifying chemicals and heavy metals. Instead of forcing the body with purges or IV chelation, ReAline has l-methionine, which is the building block for glutathione, the body\'s most important antioxidant. That way the body can detox when it wants to not when it’s forced to.

L-methionine and l-taurine are sulfur amino acids, which help with the liver\'s sulfation detox pathways. The B vitamins work synergistically with magnesium and methionine. All four are methylated to help with liver methylated detoxification pathways to help break down toxic homocysteine. The introduction of methylated B’s became even more important as the MTHFR gene mutations were identified. Betaine HCL is also a methylated compound. Dr. Dean contends that gene mutations are expressed partly because of magnesium and other nutrient deficiencies.

The B vitamins are essential to support our neurological health. This became even more obvious when we found deficient B12, B6, and folate in the autism spectrum and also in the elderly. But there is much more to them. They are cofactors in thousands of biochemical processes. The B vitamins work together; they help cells burn fats and glucose for energy, they promote cell growth and division, maintain healthy skin and muscle tone, support and increase the rate of metabolism, enhance immune and nervous system function, which includes easing stress and improving mood probably triggered by an increased production of serotonin. Their ability to help reduce anxiety, depression and PMS is enhanced with the use of magnesium.

Methionine has 4 major roles in the ReAline formula. Methionine is a building block in the manufacture of all our proteins including: structural, contractile, blood proteins, antibodies, hormones, and enzymes. It is a methyl donor, needed for the production of neurotransmitters; a sulfur donor; and a precursor in the synthesis of other amino acids. Methionine has the ability to inhibit toxic metals from crossing the blood-brain barrier. Methionine is a critical component of tissue development, growth and tissue repair for all humans at any age.

Taurine is a precursor to GABA; reduces elevated levels of cortisol in the body; helps burn fat; improves insulin sensitivity; increases testosterone production; acts as an antioxidant; enhances heart and brain function and improves sleep. It also lends sulfur molecules to the liver for its sulfation detox pathways.

We hope that you take the appropriate steps to make good food and drink choices over the holidays. I know I will, and, I am keeping my ReAline close by to be a practical support to my body’s natural detoxification processes should I \'overindulge\'.
