When I was v injured, a functional medicine ‘doctor’ immediately ran a d-dimer test and told me about nattokinase. My PCP was very upset that I didn’t follow his suggestion which was to do nothing.

Eric--where do you find a functional doctor? I found one that is holistic/allopathic combo that is "off the grid" as far as corporate medicine and insurance goes. You pay up front and I appreciate their care--thus far. I never heard the term "functional doctor" before--that's why I'm curious.

I see one as well. She has helped me with several issues conventional docs ignore. Zinc/copper balance, Hashimotos, blood pressure, anxiety plus detoxing high lead and arsenic. Targeted high quality supplements. I only take a very small BP pill now. Lessening my anxiety to a very low level was certainly why I need much less medicine.

Medicare pays for most blood tests but nothing is submitted to my supplemental insurance. It’s relatively expensive but thorough. She also offers infrared sauna and other treatments. She employs a NP and proper lifestyle and nutrition coach. I just searched online for one and found my past gynecologist who switched to what she really loves doing. She is unjabbed as I am. On her desk my last visit was Ed Dowd’s book “Cause Unkown”.

I test any new conventional doc by their opinion of the fat/cholesterol causes CVD con (It doesn’t). If they are still stuck in that paradigm I fire them. Lol.

Expand full comment

That’s a very good way to test wether one should keep seeing a particular physician or not, I do the exact same thing, have fired about five docs so far, one of them an integrative/holistic doctor who I consider a very smart one but who’s still stuck on the fat/cholesterol scam, smh 🤦🏻‍♀️ I can’t believe that the majority of doctors are still stuck on the fat/cholesterol causes CVD lie :/

Well, there is some new evidence that your particle size and number of your LDL's do have a lot to do with CVD. Also, do you have the genetic marker of lipoprotein (a)? That can pretty much be a death sentence and is why sometimes seemingly healthy individuals can have a heart attack and die. So, while sugar intake sets up the inflammatory process that can cause CVD, your cholesterol profile needs to be one that fractionates the LDL. I get a Cardio IQ test done twice yearly which breaks all of this down. Very few doctors order it.

Expand full comment

I’m aware of this, and had all kinds of blood work to find out the cholesterol particle size etc, my doctor at the time told me that she wanted me to start statins asap to what I replied: is there any other test/exam I can get done to check how my arteries are before having to take statins? An exam to check calcium buildup? And so she sent me for a calcium score test, that came back with a score of 0, so in the meantime while I look for another doctor (haven’t found one yet) I’m making sure to eliminate refined seed oils from my diet, which are never in my kitchen anyways but they’re almost impossible to avoid when eating out even if once in a while, I do have a sweet tooth but I’m aware of that and am trying to eliminate that as much as I can, I just love a well made desert but I don’t drink sodas or any sweet drinks, don’t smoke or drink, and high cholesterol does not run in my family, so all I can think is there’s chronic inflammation in my body that’s causing it to create cholesterol in response and something else oxidizing the cholesterol? I’ve read so much information about it that my head is ready to explode, I just want to find a functional doctor who’s knowledgeable and up to date on how to better treat this without the use of statins

Expand full comment

Yes that’s true but can be alleviated. one thing don’t eat seed oils. As you know. They are damaging along with processed food and sugar. Generations have been led to these oxidized killers and the rise of use mirrors the rise of CVD. Saturated fat has been demonized. The animal fats we used to eat and cook with or good olive oil, coconut oil. They do not cause health issues. Of course our entire corporate food system is polluted and unhealthy plus full of sugars and seed oils. But I don’t let good real butter and decent meat and dairy scare me. 🤔😁. My functional doc ran that test on me. I’m 74. My particle sizes were ok. I had my eyes opened about 12 years ago and switched fats but I’m sure some damage from decades of buying the canola con remains. Cheers!!

My integrative cardiologist said that clinics are rewarded for cholesterol numbers of their patients being below a certain number. Therefore, drs just look at your number and if it’s not below the magic number, bingo statin. No brain required.

So is "Sunning" which, if you believe your doctor will certainly kill you. Obv, too much of anything might kill you. Sunscreen might kill you for a LOT of reasons. Poisons, inhibiting natural "sunning" vit D absorption.

My son takes Gaba. He had been on Singulair/Montelukast for 10 years (he's 14) and it totally screwed him up (took me a long time to realize it was the Singulair). He's now on Gaba to try to fix what that poison did to him and it makes a HUGE difference when he takes it. I hate that at 14 he has to take anything but that awful stuff really did a number on him. My daughter also took Singulair but it didn't have as strong of an affect on her as it did him.

I agree about a media fast. Yesterday I spent the day painting (we're selling our house this summer) and I realized around 5:00 that I hadn't looked at a device or read anything news related since about 8 a.m. and I felt SO relaxed. Just a few hours made a difference for me! I can't imagine what several days would do (so where am I now? Reading news... but I digress).

I take this nutraceutical called Stabilium that I used to get for 12 dollars and now it is 3 freaking 8, and I've taken it for 20 years. My resident a few years back said I had the blood work of a 25 year old, which I am way lol way older than. It is made from a deep water fish that has adapted to great pressure and cold, and the Ancient Celts used to give it to their elderly and their warriors, who had to be out swinging meat axes and wearing chain mail for weeks at a time. Lots of Omega 3, which is on many covid prevention protocols. Garum Armicorum

I had anxiety all my life, including a nail biting habit that often left me with bloody fingers. About 8 years ago, my ND ran a battery of tests on me that came back with three mutations of the MTHFR gene. This means my body cannot process vitamin B without addition of methyl folate. Most run of the mill vitamins include folic acid, which is synthetic and I cannot process it…it build up in the body and becomes toxic, causing (among a list of symptoms), extreme anxiety. I now take a methylated B vitamin and a host of troubling symptoms of B deficiency have resolved. Almost everybody has at least 1 mutation, but more than one can be a problem.

I have been working with an integrative medicine doctor for about 8 years. Autoimmune issues and biotoxin mold illness. I pay out of pocket and he uses my insurance to direct me to blood work so they pay. After 20+ years of neglect and gaslighting by insurance dictated ( disability) doctors in upstate New York, it’s great to have some improvement in my quality of life. And I have hope again. Priceless. He left the insurance dictated hospital system 20 years ago because they told him to stop spending so much time with his patients. He’s in central Florida and only available 3 days a week. 2 days a week he’s working at a clinic for Florida residents who have no insurance.

And lastly, the government has orchestrated group medicine for greater control.

Expand full comment

Three questions people should always ask when seeing their doctor: What is the diagnosis? What caused the condition? And what can I do to prevent or heal it? In my experience and observations, in most cases doctors go directly to writing a prescription, without even discussing the second or third question unless they are pointedly asked by the patient. And even if the the second and third questions are asked, the doctors will often not provide much in the way of natural treatments the patient can do on their own. Unfortunately, in the current medical model most doctors are trained to simply prescribe pharmaceutical drugs, so they may not even know what a patient could do on their own to treat their issue. But, it is not just the doctors’ fault that this is typical. Most people just want to take a pill and not take responsibility for their health.

Please don't forget, the patient has some culpability as well...most would rather have the latest and greatest Rx rather than making a lifestyle change!

I mentioned this below, and think it may be helpful here:

I have recommended nattokinase, *when appropriate* for individual patients, for many years. Earlier naturopathic physicians for decades.

Before starting it, please get these labs checked, and then again a few months later:

CBC with platelets, Fibrinogen, D-dimer, PT/INR.

My husband had a heart attack in 2007 (he was only 47) and his cardiologist at the time told him "if any doctor ever tries to get you to stop taking statins, change doctors".

I've sent him tons of information on nattokinase and he flat out refuses to stop the statins. :( He now has 8 stents (yes, that's not a typo.

I have been using and recommending enzymes like nattokinase for years and has been commonly used by the naturopathic community for a long time. I take it every day. While it's action on blood clotting is will known, logically it makes sense that it would work directly against the foreign spike protein as well.

One Caveat: You must take the enzyme on an empty stomach in order to get it into the bloodstream where it can work it's magic. If you take it with food, the food will absorb the enzyme in the digestive process and it'll never make it into your bloodstream.

With today's constant threats of aerosol spike, spike in the food supply and/or shedding, I am pro-actively taking this enzyme every day.

You can buy natto that's prepared commercially but having seen it used on "Chopped", it looks pretty nasty. It adds a lot of "umami" to food and it's very pungent.

Dr. Mercola has, for many years, advocated the use of proteolytic enzymes for a variety of scar tissue (fibrin) type removal. Taken on an empty stomach, these digestive enzymes seek out proteins elsewhere in the body and aid in slowly eliminating all sorts of scar tissues, including fibroid uterine tumors, scar tissues in the arterial walls (thus aiding in blood flow to the heart), old injuries and surgeries, etc. So the recommendation of this most recent use of nattokinase makes a lot of sense to me. You take outside of food so the enzyme, which would normally set about digesting protein in your stomach and intestines goes looking for it elsewhere.

I came to the comments to say the same Glenda--about Mercola touting Nattokinase for years now. Glad to hear it's coming to use for those who took the shot.

Expand full comment

Wonderful! Then I’m sure he’s got some sort of supplement. And his articles available on the “shop” part of his website are so helpful and informative! I’ll check it out!

Expand full comment

The reason you take on an empty stomach and at least 30 min before food is that the enzyme will help digest the food instead of going into the blood stream after the scar.

Our homeopath/naturopath gives enzymes to cancer patients because cancer/tumors have a hard protein shell and the enzymes eat at it so your body's immune system can get inside to fight the cancer.

Enzymes help with infections too using the same mechanism.

Also, there are enzymes for protein, fat, carb. So taking the right ones matter. Bromelin is taken before surgery to minimize scarring.

It's a fascinating field. Viva la enzymes!

My thoughts exactly! I had avoided it in the past because it looks disgusting--Mercola would eat the actual fermented soy beans and I didn't think I could choke them down. Jeff's article reminded me that I should look into the supplement, and there are so many out there! I ordered some this morning. All the while I thought of how the government will probably ban sales and/or buy up all of the stock. When you do buy it, make sure it's non-GMO.

I have been taking some of his supplements since 2020 and have my vaccinated mother on a few select supplements. I’d love to research and add these to her daily regimen.

Yes, as a matter of fact he does. I just purchased the lumbrokinase, which is the strongest one, for a scar I am trying to eliminate. He also has the others. Go to his store (mercola.com) and search enzymes.

VitalzymX is good too. Vitalzym is OTC, but the X is stronger--Sold by healthcare practitioners. (Or used to be). The company changed owners, so I dont know if the product is as good now but it helped me w surgical scar tissue as does stsphysagria.

Wonderful!! Thank you! And thanks for personal testimony on how it has helped you.

I have a new scar on my face I would love to see get smaller. Did you read that by taking it internally, it can help eliminate scars anywhere on the body? Or is it some kind of topical to apply to the scar? Thanks!!!

Yes, anywhere. Sports medicine doctors have been using this for years on patients. My chiropractor was the one who turned me onto this years ago.

I read these comments, then went to: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5372539/

Based on the verified statements about Japanese consumption of this enzyme and the typical longevity of the Japanese people, I ordered some (NOW brand, non-GMO sourced, $18/bottle) and plan to add it to my daily pile o'pills. At age 75 and a recent Omicron sufferer, consuming such non-Pharma supplements sounds like a very, very good idea. Thank you to Dr. Mercola, to Jeff, and to you too, Glenda!

ALL OF YOU - THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting such HELPFUL, COMPASSIONATE answers to my query about where to find "functional" doctors. We do not have any close to me--so I'll continue to go to my holistic/allopathic clinic that is "off the grid" and I'll share some of what I learned today with them. They are always "open" to "natural" versus "man-made" alternative treatment plans.

I get my vitamins and supplements from Dr. Mercola. When I first read Dr. McCullough's article on nannokianase I searched Dr. Mercola's site and didn't find anything???

Patricia, I wish I could point you to a specific article or 2 but can't. My credentials (if you can call them that) in saying he has been touting Natto are that I have been following him for years. In the 1980's he was the Dr. of my cousin (whom I was very close with). She would share his nutrition suggestions and soon enough we'd all be doing things like eating millet or juicing a watermelon with ginger (I really was too young then to understand the ends to the means but it was interesting). When the internet became a thing and he got an online presence, I started following him directly and using some of his products, so I've been pretty familiar with his suggestions, articles and products. Perhaps it was about 10 years ago (?) he was pushing Natto-- he would talk about making it and eating it for breakfast as part of his routine 🤮😂. Possibly since cancel attempts and force shutting down his websites some of the information may have been lost.

Here's a page from his library.

"Proteolytic enzymes such as lumbrokinase, serrapeptase and nattokinase also act as natural anticoagulants by breaking down the fibrin that forms blood clots"

And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war. His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses. From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”

I'm in court next March 20th but it's on the defense for cyberstalking because I exposed the Special interest private practice attorneys profiteers WHO legalsleezed me. I've did a guest appearances online with David Martin recently. We both have legal standing on different sides of the coin. Jeff or any righteous attorney can jump on my malicious prosecution counter which will pierce the new record mass tort slam dunk you mention. It's not a slam dunk however if the law firm doesn't have an attorney barred internationally b/c the there will be deepstate disbarred attempts IMO.

Janice. I've been wondering quite a bit lately if God didn't have a hand in what's happened in the last three years. Even I, who always prided myself on having open eyes and not trusting big government in anything, did not see this coming. Pride comes before the fall and all that. Shame on me. This was a huge thump on my head and I believe God did the thump that was felt around the world. I for one am grateful for the wakeup call to me.

Do you feel the same?

Tracy— I don’t presume to know for sure, but it seems more like Satan’s gnarled hand. Obviously it was allowed by God, who is absolutely all powerful and sovereign. Who knows how much He restrained the evil ones… I do know He works all things together for good to those who love Him. And that our times are in His hand. And that He is working out His plan for this messed up world using messed up people. And that we win in the end. I am so thankful for Jesus!

Because with rare exception, crime syndicates, a.k.a. "governments," especially big central ones like the one headquartered in the D.C. swamp, attract the worst among us.

We know who controls the flying monkeys. We’re getting slow rolled, and it’s not slow anymore. The deep staters have begun criticizing Brandon’s policies. The msm is suddenly noticing the rot in our health and security systems. I suspect the deep state and media will start “noticing” a lot more. And they’ll be shocked. Shocked, I tell you! Cloward and Piven didn’t develop a theory; they developed a strategy now on steroids and unleashed.

In the voices of our “leaders,” the Accuser is about to speak just enough truth to fully condemn us: “You elected a white Republican president, but he was a Russian and an insurrectionist. So you elected a white Democrat, and he’s corrupt and incompetent. Your white Treasury Sec is cutting a sneaky deal with Ukraine right in front of your faces. Your debt, border, infrastructure, health and education systems have all been falling apart for years, and now they’re completely unreliable. You’re even killing and mutilating your own children. You see it all now, Americans! Your ideology, institutions, and systems are utterly rotten. It’s time to tear everything down and start over. We’ll help you” into slavery and concentration camps.

A whole bunch of us best turn ourselves and our country over to Christ for help.

We who name the name of Jesus Christ the Lord WILL be persecuted in the NWO impending--of that I have no doubt. The "useless eaters" will be rounded up and either eliminated immediately or put into "aging camps (worse than the ones we have now that we call "nursing homes").
