WARREN KING, L.AC.

Greeting Friends,

Do you know the root of the word Doctor doesnot mean healer but rather teacher. So I am getting inner direction to start doing more teaching. I will begin by sending out this newsletter more often.

I’ll share with you what I am learning by treating thousands of patients as well as what I am learning on the internet, in magazines, books, CD’s and continuing education. I’ll also pass on information that I’mgetting from my own intuition.

In my own life I have added silent meditation to my practice, and spend about 15 minutes every other day before bed in meditation. I also have enlisted the help of apersonal trainer and am really pushing myself with a work out about every other day. Not only do I feel more clear and energized, I feel I can hold more Light in my aura. So why don’t you give meditation and exercise a try!

-Warren

Symptom Suppression

In Japan there is a saying. “Where there is a front, there is a back. The bigger the front, the bigger the back.” Walk into any drug store or supermarket and you will find shelf after shelf of bottles for every symptom under the sun: headaches, pain, sleeping, allergies, congestion, coughs, skin eruptions, etc.. . Prescription drugs can even be more effective at suppressing symptoms than the over the counter drugs. That is the front, your symptom diminishes. Way down the line you may be diagnosed with cancer, Parkinson’s disease, arthritis or obesity. That is the back. The stronger and longer the suppression, the worse you may feel later on.

The body has an innate intelligence. It knows what is toxic and seeks to expel it from the body. A baby will get a rash, or runny nose. If suppressed with cortisone cream or anti-congestant, then the symptom may clear, but in a year, seemingly out of the blue they now have asthma. More cortisone and more antibiotics, then they have attention problems…more drugs. The body is never let to have a good fever to burn out toxins and bugs, due to aspirin. If suppressed enough the body will stop discharging toxins and start storing them away. The body has priorities, protect the main organs like the brain and heart, so it may stuff gunk into the gall bladder or uterus, which are often removed. Fat cells are a convenient place to store unwanted toxins. If the inside of the cells become toxic, then you may get auto-immune diseases or cancer.

After decades of suppression they may end up on my table. My forte is to be able to communicate with the intelligence of the body. I have many fine remedies that can open the elimination organs to start effectively eliminating toxins. Some homeopathics can even get inside the cells and help them eliminate things like mercury or lead. If you don’t open the doors (elimination organs like skin, intestines, kidneys and liver) first then you could feel worse before you feel better as the toxins are eliminated from the cells and organs. But I minimize this with a system called drainage (opening the elimination organs).

Toxins have often built up over years and decades, so healing proceeds like the peeling of an onion, in layers. Often after these layers of toxins are eliminated, we find at the core an emotional or spiritual blockage. When these are cleared, healing is mostly complete. We may add some items for rebuilding like vitamins, minerals or essential fatty acids. At this point the person is at a level of homeostasis and balance where they feel good. They know what foods help and hinder them and find their own limits. They have good emotional and spiritual hygiene, such as not holding on to grudges or not over giving.

It is so satisfying to work with people as they learn to truly heal at a deep level and regain their zest for life. We have this one body to work with in this life, so let’s make it as healthy as possible that it can be a dependable vehicle for our soul for as long as possible.

Taking Care of Your Adrenal Gland

We don’t often think about our adrenal glands, but having healthy adrenals is really a key for feeling well. These walnut sized glands sit atop our kidneys. They have a lot to do with controlling of other glands and hormones of the body. The outer layer or cortex produces hormones such as testosterone, estrogen, DHEA and cortisol. The central portion produces adrenaline, which is used in the fight or flight response.

Under stress your heart rate and blood pressure increase, your energy stores are ready for immediate use and your digestion slows. Your senses are also sharpened. This is healthy response to stress in an emergency. But in modern society stress can become an ongoing state of affairs. When we don’t get enough sleep, when there are financial pressures, relationship issues, and a reliance on caffeine and simple carbs for energy our adrenals can become fatigued.

In oriental medicine what we think of as adrenals was considered part of the kidney energy system. Symptoms of deficient kidneys are what you may consider as old age symptoms like graying or losing hair, weakening of bones or teeth, low back pain, memory loss, sleeping poorly, low sexual energy and sensitivity to cold.

It was thought that the kidney/adrenal energy could especially be healed during the winter. I’m concerned that with our lack of a real winter this year, the energy is not going deeper in the body to replenish the kidneys, like a tree trying to bud when it should be storing up nutrients in it’s roots.

Fear and anxiety are the emotions generated by an imbalanced kidney/ adrenal energy. But also being in a state of fear can weaken those organs.

A sauna can warm up the kidneys, as can a compress over the kidneys made of strong ginger tea. Silent meditation or mindfulness, just being in the present moment, without mental chatter, can be very useful in reducing stress.

There are many herbs that help the adrenals as well such as ginseng, schizandra, rhodiola, turmeric, astragalus, galanga and ginger. These are found in a product I often use called “Adrenal Balance”. Some foods that can help the kidneys are the high protein grain quinoa, burdock root, kale, azuki beans, tempeh, sea vegetables, green tea, olive oil, and miso soup. Try to enjoy what’s left of our deficient winter without kidney/adrenal deficiency.

While testing patients for the last few months

it has been showing up for the majority of

people that the fruits and vegetables that

are highest in pesticides should be

organic.

The fruits that should only be eaten if organic are:

Apples

Blueberries

Grapes (imported)

Nectarines

Peaches

Pears

Strawberries

The vegetables that should be organic are:

Celery

Collards

Kale

Lettuce

Potatoes

Spinach

Sweet Bell Peppers

Pesticides interfere with the insects nervous and

reproductive systems, so it is no wonder that they

can mess us up as well.

There are certain fish that are high in mercury that

should likewise be avoided like: Tuna, Mackerel, Chilean

Sea Bass and Orange Roughy

Best to also avoid corn syrup, canola oil and tap water.

Introducing Warren King
(The Organ Whisperer)

For years patients have been confounded as to how to explain to friends and family what it is I do. “Well he kind of waves something near my head and knows everything that is going on inside me.”

So I have recorded a 10 minute audio explaining my background, training and approach to healing. It is now posted on the homepage of my website, as well as on a CD that you can pass along to others.

So now you can direct people to warrenking.com so they can find out what I do. And for those who are not as technologically advanced or less prone to log on to the website, we can get you a CD that they can listen to at their leisure.

Helping The Children

I am so grateful to working with many young children and making a major difference in their lives. Although ideally I would want to work with mothers before they become pregnant, children with health issues tend to heal quickly and often with amazing results.

I just saw a young boy who was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome, which is a mild form of autism. After just a few months of treatment he is now in a regular school and doing regular kid stuff, like a fascination with Star Wars. Basically he has been cured.

Yesterday I saw another young boy who was on prozac for depression, and had severe digestive symptoms. He is off the medication and no longer depressed. I found his nervous system is stressed from mercury in his fillings and nickel in his braces.

I am also working with a young girl who has an autoimmune problem with her thyroid. The doctor put her on medication and expected the thyroid to get worse and worse and eventually need her thyroid removed. The good news is that the tests are now showing the thyroid to be getting better and better.

So if you know any children that are having health or even emotional issues, the natural methods of healing I use really do get results. It can make a difference for the rest of their lives.

 I think you will really enjoy the content of this month’s newsletter. There is nourishment for the body, mind and soul. Learn how all soy products are not good for you, make a delicious dessert with almond butter. Put a ginger compress on your liver to feel the joyous energy of spring. Find websites that will feed your soul. And finally laugh, I laughed out loud (lol) when I read the humorous insights of young children.

The Dark Side of Unfermented Soy

Writings about the soybean date back to 3000 B.C., when the Emperor of China listed the virtues of soybean plants for regenerating the soil for future crops. His praises centered on the root of the plant, not the bean. These ancient writing suggested that the Chinese recognized the unfitness of soybeans for human consumption in their natural form. Now 5000 years later, we are once again catching on to the anti-nutritive qualities of the soybean, and realizing that the only soybean worth eating is one that has been fermented.



The key to releasing the nutrients of the soybean has been known for thousands of years.

About 1000 B.C. some smart person in China discovered that a mold, when allowed to grow on soybeans, destroyed the toxins present and made the nutrients in the beans available to the body. This process became known as fermentation and led to the creation of the still popular foods tempeh, miso, and natto.

A few centuries later, a simpler process was developed to prepare soybeans for consumption. After lengthy soaking and cooking, the beans were treated with nigari, a substance found in seawater. The end product was tofu. During the Ming dynasty, fermented soy appeared in the Chinese Materia Medica as a nutritionally important food and an effective remedy for diseases.


Unfermented soybeans contain potent anti-nutrients.

In their natural form, soybeans contain phytochemicals with toxic effects on the human body. The three major anti-nutrients are phytates, enzyme inhibitors and goitrogens.
These anti-nutrients are the way nature protects the soybean plant so that it can live long enough to effectively reproduce. They function as the immune system of the plant, offering protection from the radiation of the sun, and from invasion by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. They make the soybean plant unappetizing to foraging animals. All plants have some anti-nutrient properties, but the soybean plant is especially rich in these chemicals. If they are not removed by extensive preparation such as fermentation or soaking, soybeans are one of the worst foods a person can eat.

Unfermented soy has been linked to digestive distress, immune system breakdown, PMS, endometriosis, reproductive problems for men and women, allergies, ADD and ADHD, higher risk of heart disease and cancer, malnutrition, and loss of libido.

Groups most at risk of experiencing negative effects from the anti-nutrient properties of soy are infants taking soy baby formula, vegetarians eating a high soy diet, and mid-life women going heavy on the soy foods thinking they will help with symptoms of menopause.



Soybeans contain high levels of phytates

All legumes contain phytate (also known as phytic acid) to some extent, but the soybean is particularly rich in this anti-nutrient. Phytate works in the gastrointestinal tract to tightly bind minerals such as zinc, copper, iron, magnesium and calcium. It has a particularly strong affinity for zinc, a mineral that supports wound healing, protein synthesis, reproductive health, nerve function, and brain development. It is believed that people living in developing countries are shorter than those in developed countries because of zinc deficiency caused by eating too many legumes. There is also evidence that mental development can be negatively impacted by a diet high in phytate.

In most legumes such as other varieties of beans, soaking is enough to break down most of the phytate content. However the soybean requires that the enzymes be released in the fermentation process to reduce its phytate content to the point where it becomes fit for consumption. This means that fermented soy foods like miso and tempeh have the lowest levels of phytate and are the best choices for anyone wishing to eat soybean products. Tofu is also a good choice, as long as care is taken to replenish loss nutrients.

Whole soybeans, soy milk, soy chips, soy protein isolates, soy flour and all the other myriad of products made from processed soybeans and advertised as health foods have much higher levels of phytate and are not worth eating.



Unfermented soy products are rich in enzyme inhibitors.

When food is eaten, digestive enzymes such as amylase lipase and protease are secreted into the digestive tract to help break it down and free nutrients for assimilation into the body. The high content of enzyme inhibitors in unfermented soybeans interferes with this process and makes carbohydrates and proteins from soybeans impossible to completely digest. When foods are not completely digested because of enzyme inhibitors, bacteria in the large intestine try to do the job, and this can cause discomfort, bloating, and embarrassment. Anyone with naturally low levels of digestive enzymes such as elderly people would suffer the most from the enzyme inhibiting action of soy.



Soybeans can block production of thyroid hormone

Soybeans have a high content of goitrogens, substances that can block the production of thyroid hormone as well as cause goiter formation. Low thyroid activity plagues women in America, particularly middle-aged women. Thyroid hormone stokes the cellular furnaces, known as mitochrondia. When thyroid production is low, energy levels as well as body heat are also low. Low thyroid level is what makes old people move so slowly and seem like every action is a huge chore. Low thyroid means the action of the heart is reduced, resulting in lack of oxygen to the cells, a prime condition for cancer.

Genistein, an isoflavone found in soybeans, can also block thyroid production. Phytate can accentuate these effects because it binds up zinc and copper, leaving little of these important minerals available to make thyroid hormone.

A transport protein called GLUT1 is shut down by genistein. This protein sends glucose into the cells where it is used to generate energy. Slowing the transport of glucose means less energy production not only of thyroid hormone, but of every other action in the body.

Another way in which soy isoflavones reduce energy in the body is by inhibiting tyrosine kinases, enzymes involved in the transfer of energy from one molecule to another. These enzymes drive cell division, memory consolidation, tissue repair, and blood vessel maintenance and regeneration.

It is this action of regulating cell division that made genistein a popular substance for fighting cancer. When research on this anti-cancer effect of genistein became know, the soy industry feverishly developed products that would appeal to Western women looking for genistein. In the middle of all this excitement, little attention was paid to how the energy reducing effects of genistein lowered cellular energy in normal cells.

The benefits of genistein come at a high cost

Women have been encouraged to use high genistein soy products to alleviate symptoms of menopause and as a guard against bone loss and breast cancer. But given the full range of effects of genistein in the body, high consumption could result in age-related memory loss. Commercial soybean products offer genistein levels as high as 20 to 60 mg per serving. Asians are presented as an example of the benefits of eating soybean products because their incidence of breast cancer and osteoporosis is low. However, the Asian diet of fermented soybean products such as miso and tempeh includes only around 5 mg of genistein a day.

Genistein slows the growth of blood vessels to tumors, another action that makes it popular as a cancer fighter. However, it has the same effect on blood vessels serving normal cells. Eating a regular diet high in genistein could result in the starvation of healthy blood vessels, resulting in a reduced supply of oxygen to cells, setting up a cancer promoting situation.

In a graphic example of how genistein slows cellular energy, a study found that eating high levels of it slowed hair growth by 60 to 80 percent

A decade ago a study of 8,000 Asian men showed that those consuming the highest amounts of tofu had smaller brain size and nearly three times the rate of senile dementia as those who ate the lowest amounts. These results suggest that eating foods high in isoflavones such as soy protein isolates may accelerate the aging of the brain.



Fermentation releases nutrients and transforms soybeans into nutritious food

People filling up their shopping carts with raw or cooked soybeans, soy milk, and other non-fermented soybean products do not realize that the isoflavones they contain will not be available to their bodies. Most of the isoflavones in soy products are bound to carbohydrate molecules called glucosides. In this form genistein is actually called genistin. It is fermentation that transforms genistin into genistein. Many products in the U.S. do not distinguish between genistin and genistein on their labels.

Even with fermented soy foods, a little goes a long way. The nutrients found in miso, tempeh, and natto can be beneficial in the moderate amounts found in the typical Asian diet, but have the potential to do harm in higher amounts. In China and Japan, about an ounce of fermented soy food is eaten on a daily basis.

When fermented soy foods are used in small amounts they help build the inner ecosystem, providing a wealth of friendly microflora to the intestinal tract that can help with digestion and assimilation of nutrients, and boost immunity.

Dr. John Lee, author of several books on the health of women, recommended that women wishing to consume soy production eat only miso, tempeh, natto. Tofu can also be eaten provided it is accompanied by fish or some other protein source and some seaweed or kelp to replenish bound minerals. Eating small amounts of these foods will provide the cancer protective effects of genistein without causing the other potential problems of genistein. Dr. Lee recommended avoiding genistein and isoflavone supplements, and soy protein isolates.

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp natural vanilla extract

3.5 cups of Erewhon brown rice crispies

Mix the first 4 ingredients in a mixing bowl. Slowly stir in the crispies, folding the bottom to the top without crushing the crispies. Wet hands and take a heaping tablespoon of mixture and squeeze into small balls with hands.

Makes 40 balls, and takes about 15 minutes to make.

GINGER COMPRESS FOR SPRING

The ginger compress is very easy, safe and effective. It works very quickly and will afford relief to anyone suffering from discomfort and pain. It can be used in any part of the body. Some of the conditions it can be used for include back pain on any part of the spine, congested or weak intestines, ovaries or prostate, arthritis, hepatitis, cystitis, diarrhea/dysentery or kidney pain.

ITEMS REQUIRED

Pot with a close-fitting lid. The size depends on your purpose, but for general use a gallon size is best.

Cheesecloth, cotton or muslin sack to hold the ginger

Grater

4-6 cotton towels about 2 feet square plus 1 bath towel

4 pints water

1 ounce of ginger per quart of water

METHOD

Pour water into pot, cover, place on stove, and bring to a boil. Meanwhile grate the unpeeled ginger and place it in the cotton sack, which is tied off. When the water has come to boil, turn off the heat. Wait until the water has ceased boiling, squeeze the sack of ginger so the juice runs into the water, place the sack in the pot, and replace the lid. It is very important that the ginger is not placed in the pot while the water is boiling, as this will markedly reduce the effectiveness of the treatment. The same water can be used for three or four treatments.

TECHNIQUE

Fold the towels so that they are 4 to 6 inches wide, and immerse them so that the edges are dry and the bulk of the towel is in the ginger water. When thoroughly soaked, remove, squeeze excess liquid back into the pot, and replace the lid.

The area of skin over the organ you wish to treat should be exposed. The person being treated should be lying in a comfortable, relaxed position. The towels are then placed so they cover the area of treatment completely. It is preferable to use two layers of towels. These are then covered with the bath towel, which helps to keep the heat in. The temperature of the hot, soaked towels should e as warm as the person being treated can stand. They should not be so hot that they burn.

Leave the hot towels in place until cool, then repeat the procedure until the skin becomes red. Try to keep the temperature of the skin constant. The treatment should last for approximately half an hour; you will know it is working when the patient’s skin becomes reddened.

In the spring the best place to do the ginger compress is over the liver, which is under the right rib cage.

Working with Warren King Changed my Life

I had the privilege of being referred to Warren King through a friend, which it seems all great things happen that way! She knew of the depression I had suffered for years having heard my stories of my past. My father had been an alcoholic and had threatened the lives of our family. My father took his own life when I was 9 years old. There have been many memories of my childhood that haunted me and kept me from living and sometimes wanting to live. I went to psychologists for years. When it was advised I was going to have to have to take anti-depressants, I took my friend’s advice and called Warren.

Warren has a “waiting list” of clients wanting to get in to be treated by him. I called to make an appointment for my 40th birthday present to myself. Fortunately, there was an opening for me and I got in within a week. All my anxieties of seeing a “healing arts” practitioner were put to ease with his peaceful office and warm office staff. At first, I came to see him every 2-3 months and for the last several years, I come every 6 months mainly because I want to come!

In describing Warren, there are no words to encompass all that he is. He is amazingly skilled in all his areas of training but has great intuitive abilities that assist him in his work. He heals the mind, body, and soul so that each Being can be whole with peace within themselves. He offers workshops on nutrition and wellness, recommends great books, refers you (if need be) to other sources/people too if it would aide in your healing. In all sincerity, if one of my own 3 children were dying, I would bring them to Warren’s King office before any place at all. I trust and respect him more than any other doctor.

My next birthday I’ll be 48 and I couldn’t be happier. I truly never thought I’d live past the age of my own father…..I have by 4+ years! I live in the present now celebrating the beauty of life. Fortunately, I have the job of being a 1st grade teacher where I can influence and teach children what I have learned through Warren. I know that by taking the time, care and investment to heal myself and by being in a healthy, happy state, I am making the world a better place through the words I speak and the actions I take. That gives me purpose and a reason for being!

There are no words to describe my gratitude for Warren’s office, his staff and the work he is doing. I truly believe by his helping heal one person at a time, “Peace on Earth” is occurring.

Bless you on your journey of wellness. With love, light and healing to you, Joni McBrien

Humor: From the Mouth of Babes

JACK (age 3) was watching his Mom breast-feeding his new baby sister. After a while he asked: ‘Mom why have you got two? Is one for hot and one for cold milk?’

MELANIE (age 5) asked her Granny how old she was. Granny replied she was so old she didn’t remember any more. Melanie said, ‘ If you don’t remember you must look in the back of your panties. Mine say five to six.’

STEVEN (age 3) hugged and kissed his Mom good night. ‘I love you so much that when you die I’m going to bury you outside my bedroom window.’

BRITTANY (age 4) had an ear ache and wanted a pain killer. She tried in vain to take the lid off the bottle. Seeing her frustration, her Mom explained it was a child-proof cap and she’d have to open it for her. Eyes wide with wonder, the little girl asked: ‘How does it know it’s me?’

SUSAN (age 4) was drinking juice when she got the hiccups. ‘Please don’t give me this juice again,’ she said, ‘It makes my teeth cough.’

DJ (age 4) stepped onto the bathroom scale and asked: ‘How much do I cost?’

MARC (age 4) was engrossed in a young couple that were hugging and kissing in a restaurant. Without taking his eyes off them, he asked his Dad: ‘Why is he whispering in her mouth?’

CLINTON (age 5) was in his bedroom looking worried When his Mom asked what was troubling him, he replied, ‘I don’t know what’ll happen with this bed when I get married. How will my wife fit in it?’

JAMES (age 4) was listening to a Bible story. His dad read: ‘The man named Lot was warned to take his wife and flee out of the city but his wife looked back and was turned to salt.’ Concerned, James asked: ‘What happened to the flea?’

TAMMY (age 4) was with her mother when they met an elderly, rather wrinkled woman her Mom knew. Tammy looked at her for a while and then asked, ‘Why doesn’t your skin fit your face?’

The Sermon I think this Mom will never forget…. This particular Sunday sermon…’Dear Lord,’ the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. ‘Without you, we are But dust…’ He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four year old girl voice, ‘Mom, what is butt dust?’

Safe Body & Breast Cancer Screening via Thermography

There has been a lot of debate in the press about the government decision to suggest that woman between age 40 and 50 do not need yearly mammograms. This may not be from a desire to save money, but because mammograms do not improve breast cancer survival rates over just getting a careful physical examination alone.

A mammogram can expose your body to radiation that can be 1000 times greater than that from a chest x-ray. Moreover research has shown that high risk women who have gotten mammograms are at a 1.5 times elevated risk for breast cancer than high risk women who were not exposed to low dose radiation. What’s more, women at high risk for breast cancer who had been exposed to low-dose radiation before age 20 or who had five or more mammograms were 2.5 times more likely to develop breast cancer compared to those who were not exposed.

Fortunately there is a newer and safer cancer screening tool. It a technique that can visualize inflammation which has now been shown to be a precursor to cancer and many other diseases. This new diagnostic tool is called thermal imaging or thermography. Basically it crates a digital map of your body that illustrates heat patterns. The images created will show if there is a hot spot or thermal asymmetry in the body. Thermography can detect irregular patterns in the breast, conditions that occur before a noticeable lump is formed.

Since one in eight women will get breast cancer at some point in their life, it behooves you to do something that can detects this scourge as early as possible. You can get a baseline of your “thermal signature” then get annual thermograms to allow you to map changes in your body’s heat patterns over time.

You can also get a scan done of your whole body. It is the best methods to find hidden inflammation such as painful areas or hidden sinus or digestive inflammation, or dental issues. It can detect inflammation in areas like the carotid arteries, which can help prevent a blood clot or stroke.

Here are the simple steps you’ll follow when you get a thermogram:

Step 1: You sit in a temperature-controlled room to allow your body to cool from any external conditions. At that time, you’ll complete some simple paperwork, including a health survey.

Step 2: You’re positioned in front of a Thermal Imaging Camera, and the technician takes digital pictures (5-15 minutes). You will be able to see yourself “live” on the computer screen, which can help give you a better understanding of your body.

Step 3: Your pictures are sent out to a certified physician for analysis of 1) the amount of heat and 2) the symmetry of the heat patterns. Heat patterns may indicate inflammation, infection, or a variance from your body’s norm.

Step 4: You’ll receive a report of findings in your mail shortly thereafter. This will help you and your doctor determine any next steps. We also provide recommendations for ways to reduce inflammation, if present, and provide personal health coaching programs if desired.

Step 5: It is recomended that you return for thermograms annually to monitor your health and watch for changes. Since everybody’s body is different, the best way to detect problems is to measure changes from your own body’s norm.

Valerie Zumbusch will be in my office periodically for anyone interested in getting thermography done. Then next date will be Wednesday, January 27th. Call the office at 952-930-3575 to set up an appointment.

Helpful Tips for Handling Winter

The winter is upon us and people are coming in to see me for colds and infections. It seems that sugar, dairy and red meat are the main foods that the body is seeking to discharge. It is important to change our diets with the seasons. In the hot summer we eat more cooling expansive energy foods like tropical fruit, watermelon, salads, cold drinks. As the weather cools it is as if the body contracts, much like a saturated sponge, which when squeezed releases it’s excess water. So when we contract the body discharges the excess through our watery eyes, sinus drainage and coughs. So eating more cooked and baked foods is helpful and less raw and sweet.

Root vegetables are good to add to your diet in the colder weather. Add more winter squash, carrots, cooked onions, rutabagas, turnips and beets. Recently I have made a simple squash dish that my family loves called Winter Squash Puree. I take winter squash (especially buttercup, Hokkaido, or butternut) and cut it in half and scoop out the seeds. Then I peel the skin off (not necessary) and cut it in large cubes and steam it until soft (about 15 minutes) Then I put the squash in a blender or food processor, and add the steaming water and some grain milk (I like the new Hempseed milk, but almond, soy or rice milk will work), some maple syrup and a few dashes of cardamon and cinnamon and puree until smooth. Delicious.

The kidneys tend not like getting cold, which tightens and restricts the kidney circulation. Feeling chilled, tired, sleepy, low back pain and sexual dysfunction can all relate to the kidneys. Bags or discoloration under the eyes can reflect what is happening in the kidneys as well.

There is a wonderful home remedy to restore kidney circulation, it is called the Ginger Compress. It consists basically of dipping a towel in a strong ginger tea and placing it over the kidneys. Finely grate fresh ginger root to the size of about a golf ball (Use smallest holes on a grater or buy a ceramic ginger grater). Put the ginger ball in few layers of cheesecloth and tie off, or in a cotton bag or sock. Boil 2 quarts of water and turn down low to simmer. Squeeze the ginger juice into the water then drop the ginger bag into the water. Let simmer for 5 minutes and take off the stove. It is easiest to have someone else apply the compress, but not necessary. You may want to put some plastic and blanket or towel down to protect the bed or rug you will be lying face down on. Fold a cotton kitchen towel into a strip and dip the middle part into the hot ginger water.

Wring slightly, so towel is damp but not dripping. When tolerable to the skin, but still very hot, gently lay the towel across the lower back over the kidneys. Cover with a dry towel to insulate. Dip it again when towel cools. Continue for 15-25 minute or until lower back is very red. You can save the water for another compress, as you might want to do it every 3rd day for 3 applications. It’s worth the effort.

Amazing Universe Facts

The incredible diversity of the cosmos is illustrated in the following examples:

• About 99% of the stars seen on a typical night are larger, more massive and brighter than the Sun. Each one is cruising through the milky Way Galaxy at about 50,000 kilometers per hour (30,000 mph).
• The star PSR 1937-214 is no wider than the city limits of a medium-sized city but it weight 500,000 times as much as Earth and is spinning on its axis 642 times a second. This record holder among the twirling stars we call pulsars is rotating so fast, its equator is moving at one-tenth the speed of light.
• Pulsars are incredibly dense. A thimbleful of pulsar material would weigh as much as all the water in Lake Erie. This density produces enormous gravity. If a spaceship could land on a pulsar, it would be instantly crushed by gravity into a puddle of subatomic particles about the thickness of the nucleus of an atom.
• A black hole with the mass of earth would be smaller than a golf ball. A black hole with the mass of the entire galaxy would be 10 times wider than the solar system.

How Many Galaxies?

The average galaxy is a colossal island of 100 billion stars, although much larger and smaller galaxies are known. But how many galaxies are there in the universe? To calculate this number astronomers use the longest exposures obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope and count the galaxies-typically a few thousand. That average is then multiplied by the number of photographs it would take to cover the entire sky. Of course, this technique misses an unknown number of galaxies that are either too dim or too remote to be picked up, but it does provide a minimum number of galaxies in the universe: 50 billion! The total number could be twice this.

The Universe Train

The universe is so vast that it’s difficult to establish a scale of reference, but this freight-train analogy might help put it into perspective. Imagine each star in the known universe is represented by a grain of sand. A thimble would hold all the stars visible on a clear, dark summer night. A dump truck would contain the Milky Way, the galaxy in which the Sun resides. To demonstrate all the stars in the universe, we need a freight train with hopper cars filled with sand. The train begins to pass at a level crossing. We count the cars as they roar by at one per second. The minutes pass, then hours, then days. We would have to keep count 24 hours a day for three years before the universe train would complete its pass. The universe train would use all the sand on all the beaches on Earth and would be long enough to stretch around the planet 25 times.

I am so happy to share what I am learning about health and healing through this newsletter and my redesigned website and blog here at WarrenKing.com.

Positive feedback

“Hi, Dr. King,

I just wanted to let you know that I stopped by your new website today and I absolutely love it. Though I had a lot of fun going through the old site, this one is definitely a better marketing tool and gives better information about your practice.

The reason I looked at your site is that in the last couple of weeks I have sent your web address to 4 people, and I wanted to imagine how they would view it when I opened it.  A couple of them are not as “new-agey” as I am, and I wanted to look at it from their perspective.  I was excited even reading it!   It stayed true to your healing principles and values, but I think it also spoke directly to people regardless of their “belief” systems.  I thought it was terrific!”

Concerning memory loss

I just had a long-time patient come in who feels really well. Spiritually he is feeling longer stretches of time, feeling gratitude for life and being in awe of existence itself. The only complaint is that of some memory loss and some concern that there is Alzheimer’s disease in his family.

Besides continuing a St. Johnswort product and beneficial flora that he had been on, the only thing showing up for remedies were two things to detoxify mercury from his brain, one being cilantro and the other being MSM. He used to have lots of mercury amalgam fillings and even though they are out of the teeth, he needs to be periodically detoxed from heavy metals.

Beyond that there were a few other suggestions. One was to turn off a circuit breaker to his room when he slept that produced high electromagnetic fields that have an effect on his brain and nervous system. It seems that those with metal toxicity have a situation where their nervous system acts as an antennae and is more affected by EMF’s than other people.

Other assignments were to do a crossword puzzle or Sodoku 2x a week, to memorize 2 poems a week and to find 2 new fun activities to do 2x a month. A book called “The Heart Math Solution” showed up to read that helps in balancing the vibrations of the heart with the head.

The only thing to change with his diet was to add bison or buffalo 2x a week and to eat 2 squares of dark chocolate (70-72% cacao) every day.

Nice to know there are things we can do to help our memory.

Internet Video

I’m always running across interesting articles and sites on the Internet. I’ll sort through them and let you know which I think are really worth your time and attention. Here is an amazing link to a 5-minute newsclip that is the best proof of reincarnation that I have seen in modern times.

Featured Product

Adrenal Balance (NewMark) is a healing remedy that my patients are finding very helpful. It just keeps showing up for more and more people every day. This is a formula of adaptogenic herbs.

The term adaptogen is used by herbalists to refer to a natural herb product that is proposed to increase the body’s resistance to stress, trauma, anxiety and fatigue. In the past, they have been called rejuvenating herbs, qi tonics, rasayanas, or restoratives. The concept of adaptogens dates back thousands of years to ancient India and China, but modern study did not begin until the late 1940s. In 1947, Nikolai Lazarev defined an adaptogen as an agent that allows the body to counter adverse physical, chemical, or biological stressors by raising nonspecific resistance toward such stress, thus allowing the organism to “adapt” to the stressful circumstances.

This is the best anti-stress herbal formula I have found. It strengthen the cardiovascular, adrenal and immune systems in their response to stress. I don’t take many supplements myself anymore, but I’m taking this one on an ongoing basis. The formula contains the following herbs: Schizandra, American ginseng, Eleuthero, Rhodiola, Curcuma Xanthorrhiza, Galanga, Tumeric and Astragalus. The dosage is 1 capsule 2 times a day with meals.

Click on Testimonials then click on “EMAIL US” in the first paragraph and then you can write your story.  I would enjoy hearing about your results and I am sure other can be inspired by your success.  This will also help new prospective patients to know that others with similar conditions have been helped. Let me know if you want your name withheld when I publish your testimonial on my blog.

Here is a new testimonial from my patient, Yvonne:

“Dear Warren,

I have enjoyed the benefit of your education and wisdom so much that I want everyone to know that there IS a place you can go for wellness, and that being well is fun and energizing, and food is powerful! I carry your cards with me everywhere and keep my ears perked up to hear if anyone else is suffering needlessly.

I have had bouts of dizziness for many years, starting in my 20s. Though icky to go through they were infrequent and only lasted a few days, the doctor thought it was probably Ménière’s disease and gave me Meclizine, which will basically put you to sleep until the “spell” is over. However in my 50s it became more pronounced and was always there on some level.  I was actually waking up in the middle of night dizzy! Shopping became a white-knuckle venture down the aisles hanging onto my cart for balance. I was not feeling confident because being dizzy makes you feel a little disoriented and you are not sure-footed. Luckily for me my medical doctor took my symptoms seriously and was putting me through a battery of tests.

My friend and I had gone to Health Expo where you (Dr. King) spoke.  Afterwards we went to your table to be tested for food allergies. I had not spoken to you or anybody at the table about my dizziness. When it was my turn I sat down and you started the food testing. Honestly within 30 seconds, you stopped, looked at me, held your arm in front of you, bent it to the side to about the 4:00 position, and said “you are about that far off center.” I was amazed and laughed and said “Well, I’m going to the Dizzy and Balance Clinic tomorrow.”  You said, “They aren’t going to be able to help you, but I could help you in a few weeks.”

Well, I did finish the medical tests that the doctor had ordered (the Dizzy and Balance Clinic, a CAT scan, and an ENT appointment). I was testing out okay, which was a relief, but I was still dizzy.  My Dr. then sent me to a neurologist, who after reading my test results, looking in my ears, and checking my reflexes (that’s all) then said he wanted to put me on anti-depressants. I asked why and he said he thought I was probably having optical migraines and that anti-depressants worked for that.  Huh? So I left there and called you. What a great twist of events for me.

You placed me on the Anti-Inflammatory diet that was difficult at first but honestly, my dizziness wasn’t gone in a few weeks, it was gone in a few days!  That certainly inspired me to stay on it, plus I started reading about the macrobiotic diet and became really excited.  So while I was happily eating healthy foods, learning, and not being dizzy, a most amazing thing happened—I lost 25 lbs!  I had been gaining about 2 pounds a year the last couple of decades, but really wasn’t all that concerned about it, I just figured that came with age and I was comfortable with it.  But I have to tell you, I do like being thinner. I do feel better, and I am so beholding to you for your wisdom and intuition, your wonderful knowledge, and your servant’s heart.  I consider it an honor to send my friends to you.  God’s very best blessings to you and may you continue to divinely enlighten and heal your patients and this planet.

—Yvonne”
