The Voice of Health with Dr. Robert Prather

Decompression Therapy is a treatment for protruding or bulging discs in the back or neck, often a non-invasive alternative to surgery. In this episode, we talk about:

--How it treats protruding discs that cause sciatica.

--How disc degeneration can be healed, as well as an unloading of the joints (such as a facet problem).

--Why Dr. Prather says surgery ISN'T necessary with a bulging or protruded disc. (And when surgery IS necessary).

--How decompression therapy (with its pumping action) differs from traction and inversion therapies.

--How decompression therapy helps the neck, as well as the back, by putting the body into healing mode and "reverses the aging process".

--How inflamed or degenerative joints such as knees and elbows can benefit from decompression therapy.

--Why decompression therapy makes a patient TALLER.

--The decompression therapy table Dr. Prather prefers and why it made him a believer after his initial skepticism.

--Why decompression therapy is a cheaper and more effective option than surgery.

--The story of a patient who drove from another state to receive treatment from Dr. Prather when options closer to home failed her.

--The difference between tension headaches, migraine headaches and cluster headaches. And which type of headache is more common in women, and which kind of headache is more common in men.

Dr. Prather uses short-wave Diathermy to increase circulation and lymphatic flow. It's best described as a large-coiled magnet. In this episode, discover:

--How Diathermy was used as a treatment for pneumonia prior to antibiotics being developed. And how it's still an effective alternative to antibiotics or can help to make antibiotic treatment more effective.

The average American eats 75 pounds of sugar each year when we should consume only 25 to 30 pounds per year. In this episode, find out:

--Why sugar itself is not a bad thing, but what we've done with it is.

--How the amount of fiber versus sugar in our diets has changed over the years.

--How sugar affects children differently than adults, as sugar actually changes a child's brain chemistry similar to how cocaine changes a brain. And how sugar addiction can lead to drug addiction.

--Why the problem is REFINED sugar that is more like a drug instead of the natural UNREFINED sugar that still contains all the nutrients.

--The results of Dr. Prather's tests on his kids and their friends in choosing between snacks made with refined versus unrefined sugar.

--Why you need a lot of fiber to properly process sugar. (And why oatmeal cookies can be good for you if done correctly.)

--How sugar changes I.Q., speed of learning, and the ability to concentrate.

--How sugar affects our immune system. And the links between sugar and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity.

--The healthy alternatives to sugar: Stevia (which Dr. Prather calls his favorite since it contains NEGATIVE calories),
Xylitol (which helps with cavities and strengthens teeth), Honey (which if grown locally helps fight allergies), and Rapidura.

--How purified fruit juices can be a problem since they take out all the fiber (and why Dr. Prather is pro-pulp).

With the advancing of the years, we can actually turn back the clock according to Dr. Prather. In this episode, we talk about:

--The difference between chronological age and biological age, and how the two may not always line up. (And why, biologically,we should live to around 160.)

--Why the lungs are the best way to determine your biological age. Plus, how your kidneys, nervous system, and skin help determine biological age.

--The treatment Dr. Prather uses to take 20 years off of someone's biological age.

--The closer you are to homeostasis, the younger you are. And the more you are out of homeostasis, the older you are.

--How stress is the biggest barrier to longevity. And the muscle measure Dr. Prather uses to measure stress in the body.

--Why stress is the leading reason people seek out Chiropractic care. And how Chiropractic reduces biological age by changing the nervous system.

--How you'd look 21 for the rest of your life if you are perfectly oxygenated. And how to improve your low oxygenation.

--How proper balancing of hormones (which most people do not have) can change the aging process. And why Dr. Prather says his office has more ways of accomplishing that than almost anyplace in the country.

--How 70% of depression issues are related to the endocrine system (which also impacts weight gain and certain types of cancers). And how 60% of all cancers are related to your diet.

--How free radicals cause aging (liver spots, macular degeneration, cataracts).
