"How Sugar Destroys Your Heart and Brain"

“Sugar can kill you,” is the message told in an article titled, “How Sugar Destroys Your Heart and Brain” by Dr. David Williams. The article was published in Alternatives in August 2014.

The article illustrates the “direct relationship” between refined carbohydrates (not naturally found in fruit) and “the risk of dying from a heart attack.” The article states that Dr. Quanhe Yang with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention studied added sugar in American’s diets and found that between 2005 and 2010, 71.4 percent of adults consumed “10 percent or more of their calories from sugar, and roughly 10 percent of adults consumed 25 percent of their total calories from sugar.” The article draws a connection between sugar intake and the risk of heart attacks saying, “those who consumed 10-24.9 percent of their daily calories as added sugar had a 30 percent higher chance of death from heart attacks, compared to those who took in less than 10 percent.” Some soft drink manufacturers and the Corn Refiners Association criticized the study.

The article also explains how a person’s body treats sugar. If a person is active and exercises regularly, then the body uses sugar as energy. However, if someone who eats a lot of sugar is more sedentary, then the body stores the sugar as fat, insulin levels raise and the sugar is stored in the liver. Dr. Williams explains how the effects of sugar and inactivity can cause metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.

Dr. Williams also writes that artificial sweeteners “are no better.” He explains that trying to “trick” the human body is not a way around sugar.  Studies show diet soda drinkers suffer similar health risks as those who ingest high levels of sugar.

According to the article, sugar can also be linked to Alzheimer’s Disease. Alzheimer’s has been studied for years but no cure has been successful. However, the article explains that recent research about the disease suggests it might be a kind of “Type 3 Diabetes.” Those suffering from Alzheimer’s have similar insulin problems as those with Type 2 Diabetes, but it is localized in the brain.

“One of insulin’s jobs in the brain is to initiate the production of acetylcholine. This neurotransmitter is involved in learning and memory, and it also stimulates muscle tissue. Deficiencies in acetylcholine are a known marker of Alzheimer’s,” Dr. Williams explains.

But sugar doesn’t have to be a part of people’s diet. Dr. Williams ends the article by suggesting some alternatives to sugar and some helpful tips to avoid sugar.

“And if you don’t have these [health] problems, take whatever steps necessary, starting today, to avoid them. Throw out the sugar and clean up your diet.”

More on OsteoDenx

Wellness is more than skin deep, more than being cosmetically healthy.  What we really want is through and through wellness.  At the core of our bodies, bones begin to form before we are born.  They support a baby’s first wobbling steps.  The shin bone enables a youngster to kick the soccer ball in practice.

Healthy bones help a student attain full height when speaking before the high school debate class.  They must stand up to climbing, hiking, jogging, skiing and all the more vigorous fun pursuits in life.  Bones need to be strong when our parents and grandparents walk from bedroom to bath, should they inadvertently slip and fall.  Every age group benefits from healthy bones.

Unfortunately…

After age 50 more than half of us have low bone density

Lifetime risk of a fracture from fragile bones is 50% in women and 25% in men

There are 1.5 million such fractures a year, all causing debility to a degree, some requiring surgery with the risk of complications

Long term nursing care is the fate of 30% after hip fracture and there is even a 20% death rate in females by 1 year.

In view of these sobering stats, treatment options, early detection and prevention are naturally of interest…Bone density measurements help diagnose deficiency states, full blown osteoporosis and a less severe condition, called osteopenia.

Normal treatment includes calcium supplementation in various forms; vitamin D of different types to help what otherwise is poor absorption of calcium, hormones and their synthetically modified versions, as well as bisphosphanates (Fosamax was first on the market).

Most recently, OsteoDenx was premiered and is now available through Nikken without a prescription.

OsteoDenx

Is not a chemical drug

It is not a vitamin supplement or mineral

It contains no calcium

It is the first in a completely new and unique class, replenishment

This naturally occurring substance is manufactured internally by the body.  With aging and the passage of time this important multifunctional molecule is depleted.  With the advent of Nikken’s latest breakthrough wellness product, we can turn back the clock on bone support and health.

But the story is much bigger…

Bone may be thought of as a mineral bank.  OsteoDenx acts as a bank teller, assisting in deposits and withdrawals.  When calcium and other minerals properly move into the bone, they form part of a solid portfolio of support.  These same minerals are paid out of the balanced account of healthy bone for key transactions in the body.  Close at hand, joints require supplies from the underlying bone to be well.  Deformed  and inflamed joints are as much manifestations of bone health being out of balance as low density and increased fragility.  From hear to intestines, many distant organ systems count on a daily mineral “check in the mail” from the bone bank.  Insufficient funds can get “power and water” turned off, a physiologic bankruptcy with the risk of a lien being placed on one’s bodily home.  Uncorrected, eviction may follow precipitously.

To put our house back in order, OsteoDenx facilitates cash flow for a myriad of payments in the cellular economy.  OsteoDenx comes with 20+ years of research.  Bone health has shown benefit in less than 2 weeks.  No side effects are anticipated.  There is no conflict with underlying conditions or ongoing treatments.  Of course, consulting your own physician concerning any medical question is always advised. 

OsteoDenx is opening up a lot of conversations on a subject of vital importance for all of us, bone health and wellness.  It has been said that the Stone Age came to an end, but not for a shortage of stones.  Just so, the age of drugs and surgeries will come to an end, but not for a shortage of drug ads and surgery centers

 OsteoDenx is ushering in a new age, the Age of replenishment!

"Responsibility" by Bob Proctor

Responsibility is a choice. I often refer to it as being the key to freedom. Your future can be everything you have ever dreamed about and then some. You have the talent and tools to experience one beautiful day after another. That is, in fact, what I believe the architect of the universe had in mind for you when you were created. If that was not so, you would have never been endowed with such awesome powers.

My good friend and mentor, Val Van De Wall wrote, “When a person takes responsibility for their life and the results they are obtaining, they will cease to blame others as the cause of their results. Since you cannot change other people, blame is inappropriate. Blaming others causes a person to remain bound in a prison of their own making. When you take responsibility, blame is eliminated and you are free to grow.”

Those who haven’t taken responsibility for their results and their life often find themselves in a mental prison, and in many ways, a mental prison is a much worse place to live than a federal prison or penitentiary. Mental torment can destroy just about everything that is necessary for a meaningful life: self image, self respect, relationships and a host of other attributes. It will even cause a person’s physical health to deteriorate.

Responsibility opens the door and permits you to walk into freedom. If you find yourself confined to such a mental state, understand there is a way out. Escape is encouraged and possible.

The master key that fits the lock is clearly marked and is within everyone’s reach. It is responsibility.

I think it would be a fair comment to say that the people we have the greatest respect for are those who have accepted responsibility for every aspect of their lives. These individuals rarely duck responsibility by blaming someone else. When faced with an unfavorable situation, they are usually aware they have attracted the negative circumstance and know everything happens for a reason. When this happens, they merely learn their lesson and keep reaching out, above and beyond to the new frontier, taking responsibility for whatever happens, every step of the way.

When a person refuses to accept responsibility for their life, they reject their uniqueness and they turn all of their special powers over to other people, situations or circumstances. They are then no longer in control of their future. They will be hoping something good will happen, but because of past experiences they will very likely be expecting something they do not want to happen. When you accept responsibility for your life and for the results which you alone determine, you will develop confidence that your dreams can be realized, that your plans can be carried out. Awareness of this magnificent truth is one of the greatest, if not THE greatest thing that can happen in your life. Its Aladdin’s lamp, a magic wand, the tooth fairy all wrapped up in one.

Dr. Rollo May, a distinguished psychiatrist, once wrote, “The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice, it is conformity.” It requires great courage to take responsibility for your life. It’s so much easier to blame someone else or something outside of you. George Bernard Shaw said, “People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don’t believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can’t find them, they make them.” I believe Shaw was right. In my opinion, those who win big in life take responsibility and create their own destiny.

Earlier on it was suggested that responsibility brings with it a certain amount of freedom. For some, these last few paragraphs may be life-altering. And, with the proper understanding, I guarantee it has the power to free you of unnecessary mental weight that you may have been carrying around with you all of your life. The concept to which I’m referring has been misunderstood by so many and has probably single- handedly ruined more lives than one can possibly imagine. Ignorance of this principle will most certainly cause a person to experience the destructive emotions of anger, guilt and resentment.

Here it is: there is a vast difference between being responsible “for” and being responsible “to.” It seems so simple, but I don’t want you to let its apparent simplicity fool you. I’m going to repeat it again. There is a big difference between being responsible “for” and being responsible “to.”

It’s not uncommon to hear parents blame themselves and assume responsibility for something that has happened to their child, and that child might be 40 years old!

“If only we …” Or, “I should have …” Far too often we inappropriately assume responsibility for something, when in fact our real duty to the person may have ended 20 years ago. Unfortunately for most, they carry that baggage around with them for life, never realizing they have a choice.

The correct interpretation of this is: you are responsible FOR your feelings and your results – not another person’s. You may be responsible TO another person for one thing or another, but not FOR another person. The exception, of course, is when you choose to take on the responsibility of raising children until they reach the age of maturity. In that case, you are both responsible TO and FOR them, until such time as they become responsible for themselves.

At times, it might even be appealing to contemplate having another person take on our responsibilities for us. We could even trick ourselves into believing that by doing this, we would be freer to play, have fun and do the things we wanted. Without serious thought, it might never enter our mind that exactly the opposite would happen. When you permit others to take on your responsibilities, you become dependent on them. They become the giver and you become the receiver. Your well-being is dependent upon their generosity. Hopefully, at some point, it will become very clear that this kind of behavior only leads to a life of lack, limitation, resentment and confusion on the parts of both the giver and the receiver.

I’ve never witnessed anything positive that has come from the misuse of responsibility. When you take on the responsibility for another person’s feelings, results, or actions, you destroy their self-reliance and self-respect.

You are responsible for all of the results in your life. You are responsible for your happiness. You are responsible for your health. You are responsible for your wealth. You are responsible for your emotional state. Regardless of what has happened in the past, the future lies ahead with an open slate, waiting for you to take control and create a wonderful life for yourself.

Winston Churchill, who certainly knew something about responsibility, said, “Responsibility is the price of greatness.”

Here’s a marvelous affirmation that you can verbalize every night before you go to sleep and every morning as you step out of bed.

I am responsible for my life …
for my feelings …
for my personal growth …
and for every result I get

"How to Become a Millionaire by Age 30"

Entrepreneur Magazine June 4, 2014

      by Grant Cardone –International Sales Expert

 1. Follow the money. In today’s economic environment you cannot save your way to millionaire status. The first step is to focus on increasing your income in increments and repeating that. My income was $3,000 a month and nine years later it was $20,000 a month. Start following the money and it will force you to control revenue and see opportunities.

2. Don’t show off -- show up! I didn’t buy my first luxury watch or car until my businesses and investments were producing multiple secure flows of income. I was still driving a Toyota Camry when I had become a millionaire. Be known for your work ethic, not the trinkets that you buy.

3. Save to invest, don’t save to save. The only reason to save money is to invest it.  Put your saved money into secured, sacred (untouchable) accounts. Never use these accounts for anything, not even an emergency. This will force you to continue to follow step one (increase income). To this day, at least twice a year, I am broke because I always invest my surpluses into ventures I cannot access.

4. Avoid debt that doesn’t pay you. Make it a rule that you never use debt that won’t make you money. I borrowed money for a car only because I knew it could increase my income. Rich people use debt to leverage investments and grow cash flows. Poor people use debt to buy things that make rich people richer.

5. Treat money like a jealous lover. Millions wish for financial freedom, but only those that make it a priority have millions. To get rich and stay rich you will have to make it a priority. Money is like a jealous lover. Ignore it and it will ignore you, or worse, it will leave you for someone who makes it a priority.

6. Money doesn’t sleep. Money doesn’t know about clocks, schedules or holidays, and you shouldn’t either. Money loves people that have a great work ethic. When I was 26 years old, I was in retail and the store I worked at closed at 7 p.m. Most times you could find me there at 11 p.m. making an extra sale. Never try to be the smartest or luckiest person -- just make sure you outwork everyone.

7. Poor makes no sense. I have been poor, and it sucks. I have had just enough and that sucks almost as bad. Eliminate any and all ideas that being poor is somehow OK. Bill Gates has said, "If you’re born poor, it’s not your mistake. But if you die poor, it is your mistake."

8. Get a millionaire mentor. Most of us were brought up middle class or poor and then hold ourselves to the limits and ideas of that group. I have been studying millionaires to duplicate what they did. Get your own personal millionaire mentor and study them. Most rich people are extremely generous with their knowledge and their resources.

9. Get your money to do the heavy lifting. Investing is the Holy Grail in becoming a millionaire and you should make more money off your investments than your work. If you don’t have surplus money you won’t make investments. The second company I started required a $50,000 investment. That company has paid me back that $50,000 every month for the last 10 years. My third investment was in real estate, where I started with $350,000, a large part of my net worth at the time. I still own that property today and it continues to provide me with income. Investing is the only reason to do the other steps, and your money must work for you and do your heavy lifting.

10. Shoot for $10 million, not $1 million. The single biggest financial mistake I’ve made was not thinking big enough. I encourage you to go for more than a million. There is no shortage of money on this planet, only a shortage of people thinking big enough.

Apply these 10 steps and they will make you rich. Steer clear of people that suggest your financial dreams are born of greed. Avoid get-rich-quick schemes, be ethical, never give up, and once you make it, be willing to help others get there too.

"Slimming Water Cure"

It’s an amazing fact that the human body is composed of about 75% water. While this is true at birth, this percentage changes as we age. Recent studies show that by the time we reach 40, the amount of water in our bodies can drop to only 50%.

New studies from leading Universities, including Stanford, are urging people – especially women over 40 – to drink more water. An article published in an August issue of First for Women, breaks down the studies and what they mean. Water is associated with many health problems men and women experience as they grow older. The article, “Slimming Water Cure,” focuses on how water can help you shed pounds – especially those over 40.

Most middle aged women are dehydrated and don’t even realize it, explains Howard Murad M.D., an associate clinical professor at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine and author of The Water Secret.

“As we get older, stress, poor diet and environmental exposure damage the membranes of the body’s cells and weaken their ability to hold water,” he says.

The article states we are less likely to feel thirsty when we are older. As people become more dehydrated, they feel hungry more often, they are crankier, and more likely to eat an unhealthy snack. Which leads to gaining weight.

The old adage of “losing water weight” to get skinnier is actually bad advice. Healthier cells can retain more water, which actually aids in weight loss. All the studies cited in the article conclude that: “water drinkers lost more weight than dieters who drank less.” Women over 40 are the ones who can benefit most from this health tip, and the studies showed they lost the most weight when adding about 1 liter of water per day to their diet routine.

The type of water people drink is also important. Any old tap water sounds like a good idea, but that water is usually more acidic. Acidic water can actually further damage cell walls, which will keep unwanted fat on your body.

“For weight loss, research suggests that water with an alkaline pH of 9 to 10 works best,” says naturopathic physician Jennifer Burns, N.D., founder and medical director of the BienEtre Center in Phoenix.

Studies indicate alkaline water may be the best choice for many health reasons. Burns added that “alkaline water may counteract inflammatory interleukins in the body, which has the bonus effect of slowing aging, easing pain and improving sleep.”

The article also states that drinking water 15 to 20 minutes before meals can aid even more in weight loss. And added water bonus is that more water can increase energy 89% and lower heart attack risk by 41%.

This article was published in the August 4, 2014 issue of First for Women by Erin Quinlan.

What many health experts say about drinking Alkaline Water

"Drinking alkaline water is a great water to neutralize and flush out all of the toxins and acids that drain from the tissues and bodily fluids, and to quickly rehydrate the body and keep the blood alkaline." -Daniel Reid, author of "The Tao of Detox"

"I have administered over 5000 gallons of this water for about every health situation imaginable. I feel that restructured alkaline water can benefit everyone...The countless names attached to illnesses do not really matter. What does matter is that they all come from the same root cause: too much tissue acid waste in the body." -Dr. Theodore Baroody DC, ND, PH.D. -Author of "Alkalize or Die"

"Getting Liberal amounts of alkaline water (having a pH between 9 and 10) neutralizes stored acid wastes and if consumed everyday in conjunction with a good diet, gently removes the acids from the body." -Dr. Robert Young, Microbiologist & author of "The Ph Miracle"

"Since the waste products we are trying to discharge are acidic, the right kind of water is alkaline water. My personal recommendation is to enjoy the foods that we like, but do not over eat or exclude any food. Eat in moderation following professional dietitians "balanced diet" concept, and let alkaline water do the job of cleansing acidic wastes. Do not use food to cleanse wastes, thus running the risk of nutritional deficiency or imbalance." -From anti-aging expert and scientist Sang Whang, author of "Reverse Aging"

"The cells and fluids in most peoples bodies are overly acidic. This can cause a lot of health problems. It prevents your body from neutralizing and disposing of harmful, poisonous toxins and leaves you more susceptible to the cell-damaging free radical oxidation that leads to cancer and other diseases." -Dr. Robert Atkins, noted author, health and diet expert.

"Alkalize your body and live a healthier, more energized, and ultimately more fulfilling life

An Interview with Dr. Moscos

Dear Nikken Friends:

I’m excited to share with you an earlier interview I had with Dr. Moscos. 

Dave: Many of our Nikken audience have had the opportunity to hear you before.  You’re a chiropractor and you’ve been a chiropractor to some pretty famous people, too.  Could you tell us a little about your background?

Dr. Moscos: Yes.  I have two degrees – a chiropractic degree and a naturopathic degree.  Back in 1989 I was asked to join the royal family in Saudi Arabia to be their personal naturopathic physician.  I went with my family there for 6 years and survived the first Gulf war.  I came back and wasn’t ready to retire so I set up a small office here in Newport Beach, CA.  Soon after that, one of my old patients brought me a set of Magsteps.  I didn’t know what they were but she had a viewer and showed me the magnets.  I asked, “Where did you get these bipolar magnets?!” and she told me about Nikken.  I joined right away.  About 4 years ago Nikken asked me to be a corporate speaker and I’m really enjoying it.  It’s just fantastic - getting the word out there.

Dave: What is your opinion of the company, the products, and the future?

Dr. Moscos: Way back in the 60s when I first started getting into naturopathic medicine, we began using magnets.  They were single pole magnets and we used to have quite a difficult time with these in our clinics.  Something was missing.  Of course when Nikken came along, their magnets had the correct polarity for the human body.  The correct magnetic fields match the earth magnetic fields.

Nikken’s mission statement is about the wellness of the whole human being.  In the environment today we are bombarded with toxins everywhere.  Even the air is acidic.  The water we drink, bottled or tap, it’s all acidic.  The body doesn’t like acid because this is where disease proliferates.  If we keep our bodies on the alkaline side we can ward off disease.  Nikken’s nutritionals are a godsend to the human race because they supplement the magnetic fields that are being destroyed by the environment and the population. 

It’s been recorded in a Washington D.C. study that the earth’s magnetic field is down about 15%.  We know that the physical actions of the body are the result of chemical reactions in the brain.  These reactions can only occur when we are in a magnetic field.  If the chemical signals are reduced by a lowered field, our electrons start losing their power. Nikken gives our electrons back their full power so the body can properly heal itself. 

Dave: When I first joined Nikken, I was given a paper from Dr. Kyoichi Nakagawa, director of Isuzu Hospital in Tokyo, titled “Magnetic Deficiency Syndrome” and it detailed how important it was to sleep on a mattress that can produce an optimal magnetic environment.  If we can’t find the right environment, we must try and make or create one.  The original root of the word disease is “dis-ease,” which means “to not be at ease or to have stress.”  Anything that you can do for your body to get it back to a state of ease or absence of stress should be very beneficial.  That is what Nikken does, creates an environment with the right magnetic field, with pure water, fresh clean air, good nutrition and of course, a happy family and society. 

Dr. Moscos: That’s what Nikken is is all about.  It’s got the attitude and statements right in the 5 Pillars of Health.  We put everything together and the human being is much happier, especially in this environment.  I love the clean air system, especially!  People live in homes that are never aired out and the air inside is often worse than outside, because you’ve got carpets, glue, paint, pets, etc. The air wellness machine is the key to a clean home. 

The sleep system is also amazing.  Sleep is a #1 priority.  The body repairs itself when we sleep, since it has to work so hard when we’re awake.  This is the point in medical science that we’ve lost.  No one person heals the body.  We work with it so it can heal itself.  If we put it in the proper environment, it will heal.  The body already knows what to do because the brain is designed that way.  A great environment for this is through Nikken’s sleep system.

Dave: I’ve slept on about every sleep system that Nikken’s made, and we’ve now got the new one.  It’s just incredible!  Can you talk about the endorsement we just received?

Dr. Moscos: Yes, it’s fantastic.  We were looking for an endorsement from quite a few different organizations and were turned down because most of the public is opposed to magnetics.  They just don’t understand.  So we tried a different approach and contacted the Worldwide Federation of Chiropractors which has established itself in 66 countries around the world.  It even works with the World Health Organization.  We contacted the general secretary of the WFC and they went for it 100%.  They came last week, a whole group of them, including representatives from Dynamic Chiropractic, a 60,000 subscriber magazine that goes out every month to doctors all over.  This is a real landmark for Nikken.

Dave: Landmark might not be a strong enough word.  This could be huge.

Dr. Moscos:  Yes, it will be.  The WFC is in 66 countries and there are thousands of doctors out there.  They are having a big convention in Sydney in June and I was already asked to do a presentation, so that will be great exposure.

Dave: When I first joined Nikken, one of my friends was skeptical.  She wrote a letter to the National Council on Health Fraud and got a personal letter back from a Dr. Jarvis, who said he commended her on being a skeptic, and went on to use words like charlatan, huckster, and quack.  Not long ago I was reading an article on magnetics and it quoted this same Dr. Jarvis saying, “I am having to reconsider my original opinion of magnetic therapy.” Time is on our side and I believe the future will be amazing for the people who are ready.  The rest of the country is waiting and we just need to go out and tell them about what we have.  The market is full of people who want a premium sleep system. 

Dr. Moscos: The sleep system is the key.  When the body sleeps, it fails in one thing only: controlling temperature.  It works so hard that you perspire and then kick off the blankets and get cold.  If you’re in a supportive environment with temperature controlling far-infrared, spine support, and nice dense foam, the body can heal almost 100%.  I’ve seen so much in the office over the last five years; some of it is even hard for me to comprehend.  Right now I’ve got 3 people with hepatitis C and we’re using Nikken products to fight the virus, including using the back flex over the liver area and the nutritional products.  And it’s working!

I have a patient who has one of the new sleep systems.  She came to me one day and said she was scared.  I asked why.  “I woke up and my head was exactly where I put it the night before.  Not a curl out of place.”  She figured she didn’t move all night! 

Dave: With the sleep system you sleep deeper.  The sleep system is almost a productively tool.  You get such good sleep that you don’t need as much; you wake up early and have more energy.

Dr. Moscos: According to the National Center of Sleep in the US, almost 70 million people have problems with sleep.  We know that bad sleep is a major factor in Depression, and it lowers the strength of the body’s immune system.  I was reading an article about a sleep study with college students; when they went into the deeper sleep they would be woken up, thus preventing them from getting REM sleep.  Within about a week they started exhibiting symptoms of fibromyalgia and other disorders.  Improper sleep is a repression of the immune system.  Auto-immune problems mean we’re going to have different arthritis and soft tissue structure breakdowns.  Eventually the body just deteriorates.  We have to be in a very relaxed, deep, restful sleep, almost sedated, for these tissues to heal.  The body heals when it goes fully through five stages of sleep.  The first four stages heal the physical structures – muscles, organs, and tissues.  The fifth REM state is when it reverts back and the brain heals itself.  These cycles move every 30-70 minutes, over and over through the night.  The Russians did some studies with this and found out that magnets increased the cycles up to 110 minutes.  The body heals better if it stays in the cycles longer and deeper.

Dave: Can I ask you to share just one experience of the success of the sleep system that has really inspiring and touched your heart.

Dr. Moscos: Well I can tell you what it’s done for me.  Years ago I had a tremendous sinus problem.  I had that for almost 25 years until I got it settled down, but when I went back to Saudi the sand was so bad that it acted up again and I had a horrendous infection for almost 5 years.  When I got on the sleep system back in 1997 I noticed a big difference right away.  Even now, after trying the new sleep system, I’ve noticed the biggest difference.  I know the Air Wellness system also helps.  I go to bed at night and wake up refreshed and ready to go, with no sinus problems and no medications to take.  It’s that clean air and good environment!

Dave: Have you done any experimenting with the new Lactoferrin product?

Dr. Moscos: I’m using Lactoferrin a lot, especially with infections.  It works wonders.  Lipoproteins or Lactogens are composed of a sugar and a protein in a chemical covalence.  What I like about the Lactoferrin is that it’s a bacteriostatic, which means it binds with iron and deprives the virus from getting iron, which means it can’t thrive.  It works wonders and it’s a beautiful compound.  I also like how it’s made in New Zealand with pure cows’ milk.  A nice, pure environment and Nikken uses almost 3 quarts of milk to make just one tablet!  It’s a fantastic nutritional to add to our line.  It does so many things for the body; I could go on and on.  Besides the bacterial static, it’s also a pre-biotic which aids the biotics already in our body.  It’s a tremendous boost to the immunize system. 

Dave: Lactoferrin means Iron, so Activated Lactoferrin means it doesn’t have the iron already and it’s hungry for it, right? 

Dr. Moscos: Yes, that’s correct.

Dave: So that means the inactive stuff at the store has iron already and is relatively inactive.  I ask this because some people have too much iron in their body, and although this is a small capsule, some are still concerned about whether it is an iron supplement.  I guess it’s quite the opposite. 

Dr. Moscos:  You’re right.  It’s actually an iron-scavenging molecule.  This is ideal for those who have too much iron in their body.  At the same time, Lactoferrin is an antioxidant, one of the best natural versions.  We succumb to illnesses because we have a sodium-bicarbonate system to neutralize acids in our environment.  Even our foods are contaminated and our diets are heavily focused on meats, potatoes and breads, all acid products.  Our system depletes itself by working so hard and then we start leaching minerals out of our system to balance things out.  That’s how people get so sick.  The Lactoferrin acts as a saving mechanism to this particular system.  One of my cases, a man who had such high iron that the hospital wouldn’t even take him, he is doing wonderfully because of the Lactoferrin.  We keep doing lab tests and his iron is coming down.

Nikken has gone out of its way to do specific research and bring out great products of health.  Like I always say, Nikken is the closest thing to putting us back in the environment we were supposed to be born in.

Dave: I really appreciate all your time and insight. 

Dr. Moscos: I just love Nikken.  I can’t get enough of it.  I love going out and getting people into it, telling the world about health and all about Nikken.  It’s a wonderful company.  People have to realize what they have with this company.  It’s endless. 

Dave: I love the possibilities!  Thank you, Dr. Moscos

Dear Reader,  not long after this interview Dr Moscos passed away.  Dr John Jackson wrote a very poetic tribute for this great man:

Hi Dave, Thanks for the conjuring of pleasant memories.  I enjoyed reading your interview with Dr. Moscos. 

 Annette was a patient of his, as was her mother.  Just prior to his sudden passing I was approaching the end of my tenure at the clinic and Dr. Moscos had agreed to take me on as an informal understudy.  He had a tremendous body of knowledge.   I'll close for now, attaching something I wrote about my feelings after Dr. Moscos died.  It's based on the prayer of Jabez, the subject of a book which he was reading when he fell over on the back porch of his home (a copy of which they placed in his hands for the memorial viewing). 

 It's great you preserved other materials connected with this great human being that continue to speak to us today.  Thanks for all you do, Dave.  

Like the roar of a jet fighter on take-off, like the high arc of a space launch, our minds could scarcely take in that the beloved doctor, yours and ours, had departed his body.

 Through Dr. Moscos God indeed blessed us, ours and many of our friends.  He enlarged the territory of our understanding of health, the optimum function of the body, with confidence of intellect, a heart brimming with empathy and usually a boyish grin.  His hand was ever on us, the various points, kinesiology and all that, guiding therapeutic choice, demonstrating sum effect.  Dr. Moscos hated evil, any attack on the Lord's outer and inner kingdom.  He kept countless thousands from the daily experience of excruciating pain.

 Our first thought at hearing of our friend's having been caught away, even before emptiness filled chest, and still now after sadness contorts brow, was and is the abiding conviction that answered prayer called him to a greater and more magnificent coast than Moses ever glimpsed in earth. 

 Dr., we see the catching away of your chariot.  Now let's see if this mantle-like coat could possibly fit.  

 John & Annette Jackson
