Naturopathic Clinic P.S. Inc. 1329 N. 45th Street Seattle, WA 98103 (206) 632-8804 Welcome to THE SAGE, the newsletter for patients and friends of Dr. Huntoon's NATUROPRACTIC CLINIC in Seattle. We'll give you a chance to send us your comments later. Right now, we would like to tell you about some successful treatment methods we are using.

BURSITIS TENDONITIS:

These Conditions respond quickly to our new anti-inflammatory enzyme remedies. Other treatments which are helpful in these cases are ultrasound and muscle therapy.

CANDIDA TREATMENT WITH ENZYMES:

Candida albicans is a parasitic yeast fungus organism whose infestation in the human body can cause a wide range of physical and mental symptoms including anxiety, depression, tiredness, allergies, memory loss and blood sugar imbalances. Candida normally lives in low levels in the intestinal tract. When the immune system is weakened, the body is no longer able to keep Candida in check and Candida will flourish in its fungal form and will cause many detrimental symptoms. Anti-fungal drug therapies are commonly used to kill the yeast. This will only relieve the ill effects of the condition while the drug is being taken, but it will not prevent recurrence of the Candida. Also many people experience an unpleasant "die-off" reaction with these anti-fungal drugs due to the ability of the immune system to handle the toxins produced by a large number of Candida organisms. The most effective treatment of Candida involves strengthening the immune system so it can reduce the number of Candida organisms to a normal level and defend against Candida infestation. Since the immune system must divide its attention between destroying excess Candida and breaking down the undigested protein in the blood, plant protease enzymes are given between meals to aide the immune system. Protease will digest the protein in the blood allowing the lymphocytes to digest the Candida organisms. There are no "die-off" reactions because the protease enzymes digest the toxins resulting from the dead Candida organisms. We are seeing dramatic results with treatment of Candida using protease enzymes.

DEPRESSION:

Depression is a very common problem in our society today. Since there are many cases of depression, it helps to do preventative lab testing to determine each person's unique chemical balance. Depression is often due to a vitamin B complex deficiency which results from a diet of refined foods such as white sugar and white flour. A diet of refined foods deprives the body of B complex vitamins as well as minerals such as chromium. Chromium is necessary to stabilize blood sugar. Unstable blood sugar can result in depression. Taking synthetic vitamins does not solve the B vitamin deficiency because for vitamins to be effective, they must be together in a balance with enzymes, co-enzymes and trace minerals the way they are found in natural whole foods. When vitamins are isolated from the whole foods, the enzymes, co-enzymes and trace minerals are left out and the vitamin does not work effectively in the body. We recommend a B vitamin supplement from whole foods so that all the natural factors are available and in balance. To assure that the person fully digests and assimilates the B complex, plant enzymes are added to the capsule. We are seeing very good results with depression and MANIC DEPRESSION with these methods.

NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS WITH ENZYMES:

The vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements that work the best are blended with digestive enzymes. People with chronic diseases usually suffer from digestive disorders and are unable to fully digest their nutritional supplements. The supplements with added enzymes ensure that people will assimilate their remedies. Since ALLERGIC reactions are often a result of poor digestion, remedies with enzymes seldom cause allergic reactions.

ENZYMES TO REDUCE BLOOD CLOTTING:

An enzyme formula which is high in lipase, the fat digesting enzyme, acts as a blood thinner to prevent the tendency of blood clots and STROKE. Because this enzyme is derived from plant enzymes, it is much safer than aspirin.

PLANT ENZYMES TO AID DIGESTION:

For digestion of food, plant enzymes are far superior to pancreatic, papaya or bromelein enzymes for several reasons. Plant enzymes work in a broad pH range of 3 to 8 so they work in any pH in the body. Pancreatic enzymes only work in an alkaline environment of 7.8 to 8.4. When a person's body is too acidic for a number of reasons, including taking hydrochloric acid tablets, pancreatic enzymes will not work. Plant enzymes work optimally at a temperature of around 98 degrees F which is close to the body temperature, whereas papaya enzymes work optimally at a temperature of 105 degrees F which is warmer than normal body temperature. Bromelein or pineapple enzymes are even less effective because they work at an optimal temperature of 130 degrees F. Both papaya and bromelien work well as meat tenderizers, but not very effective for the digestion of food!
