  • Lead Contamination: What You Need to Know | Health Choices Now

    General Topics Lead Contamination: What You Need to Know How do I find out if my water contains lead? There are a few ways you may find out if your water contains lead. The first option would be to look at your pipes. The easiest access would be under your kitchen sink. If this is a metal pipe, scratch the pipe with a knife. If the scratch is silver, it is possible it is made of lead. From here, grab a magnet and see if the magnet sticks to the pipe. If it does not stick to the pipe, it is lead. These pipes may be anything from your faucet, to your actual pipes, fittings, or solder joints. Despite whatever pipe it is, lead is not okay for your home! We recommend that you replace your lead pipes using a safer alternative, such as copper or plastic or polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Another way to find out if your water contains lead would be to contact your home’s water supplier and ask for a lead test. These should be free of charge. You may also ask for a copy of the Consumer Confidence Report. Often times, water suppliers have these online. You can find them here. If you would like to test for lead yourself, you are able to do so, but it is not recommended. These tests may not have correct accuracy. Because this is such a serious issue, we recommend you to utilize your water supplier and get professional help. However, if you do wish to use an at-home kit, buy one from a home store. Test your tap by using water that has been sitting overnight, meaning wait until water has not been turned on or used for several hours, and then turn on the faucet to use the water that has been aggregating. This water is best for testing because it has been in the pipes longer. Reasoning for this is because the longer water sits inside a pipe, the higher chance it has to corrode. This happens if the water is highly acidic or has low minerals. You may send this to a lab for analysis, or you may simply trust the kit you bought. Many times, the test will turn a designated color if there is lead in your water. How do I find out if paint in my home contains lead? Homes built before 1978 often contain lead-based paint. There are several ways you can test for lead. The first is the most accurate and recommended test: the lead-based paint inspection. This is when an inspector comes in and checks out all painted (and wall-papered) areas of your home, inside and out. From here, it’s taken to a lab and tested. A risk assessment test only takes samples of chipping paint, paint that looks as if a child has been biting or licking, and dust and soil from your home. This assessment does not test all of your home, like the lead-based paint inspection. Only certain areas are tested, meaning there is still room for error. A hazard screen is even less extensive than the risk assessment test. Samples of paint are taken from chipping areas and a dust sample is taken as well. No soil is tested unless there is reason to believe there may be lead contamination. Again, at home lead tests are not strongly recommended. However, they work just the same as a water lead test (meaning the strip will change a designated color depending on lead levels). Soil may be collected from your home because lead-based paint chips may have have fallen into the soil and contaminated it. Soil may also be contaminated through smelting, leaded gasoline, or other industrial causes. Dust from your home is tested because it collects on certain areas that may have lead-based paint. This is just another way to test for lead. Check out this link to find an inspector around you. What else do I need to know about lead? Lead is everywhere. It’s a scary thought, but it’s unfortunately true. Often times, toys contain lead-based paint. Be mindful when purchasing toys for children and stay on top of news regarding lead in toys. Make sure children are not biting, licking, or putting toys in the mouth. If the toy contains lead, this is not beneficial for children. There have been several recalls over the past decade in regard to lead-based toys. In 2007, popular toy company Fisher-Price recalled nearly 1 million toys. Again, be mindful of such toys and make sure to find out what these toys are made of. There are several other ways lead can come into your home and affect you and your loved ones. Once again, working with lead-based paint is a risk. This includes renovation, battery recycling, refurnishing furniture, and automobile work. Hobbies such as hunting, fishing, staining glass, painting and making pottery, and collecting or painting stock cars may be dangerous as well. Reduce Your Risk If you do not have the money to get rid of your lead plumbing system, you may take these alternative precautions instead. These precautions include using cold water for cooking and drinking. Know that you cannot boil lead out of water. Conversely, it is okay to shower in contaminated water, as long as you do not swallow the water. Thankfully, skin cannot absorb lead. However, we do recommend that you run cold water for at least five minutes before showering. To reduce the risk of being affected by lead-based paint, we recommend that shoes are taken off once entering a home to reduce the risk of being affected by contaminated soil. Keep your home clean and free of dust, vacuum often (and do not beat rugs!), mop floors weekly, and rid any paint chips around your home. If you or a loved one works with lead-based paint, pack an extra bag of clothes to change into after work and before coming home. Make sure to wash hands often, as many surfaces in your home may contain lead-based paint. Children need to have proper nutrition high in vitamin C, calcium, and iron. Cilantro and garlic are also helpful in reducing lead from the body. These foods are high in sulfur, and sulfur oxidizes lead. Other high-sulfur foods are brussell sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, chives, onions, eggs, poultry, and nuts. Cilantro can be added your cooking, but you may also add it into your water. Cilantro has the amazing ability to reach heavy metals that have been absorbed into the bone. This herb also aids in liver health, anemia, and nausea. Please take all precautions provided and do your best to keep your home a safe and livable area! If you have any further questions, please contact Dr. Trowbridge and 1-800-FIX-PAIN (1-800-349-7246). The easiest way to check your pipes is under a sink. There are various types of pipe, however, lead is a no-go. If you own an older home, be aware if your home has lead paint. Getting an inspector to look at your home is your safest and best bet. Toys often contain lead-based paint, especially those imported from outside the U.S. Leaving shoes at the door helps track less soil, which may contain lead.

  • Eliminate Chronic Pain That Can Lead To Compromised Immune System | Health Choices Now

    General Topics Eliminate Chronic Pain That Can Lead To Compromised Immune System If you’ve been living with chronic pain for weeks, months or years, chances are you have a compromised immune system. And in the face of the global COVID19 pandemic, that means you are at a higher risk for getting the virus and potentially you may not recover if you do get it. When pain persists, it can cause an increase in the level of cortisol which is the body’s main stress-induced hormone. The immune system needs a certain amount of cortisol, but when cortisol is elevated for an extended period of time, it can impair the essential functions of cells that make up the immune system. When bathed in stress-induced cortisol, the immune system can find it harder to function optimally. Living with unending chronic pain and the subsequent stress, your immune system simply will not work at full capacity. This breakdown in immune function can interfere with the body’s ability to fight infections, long-term healing, and overall quality of life. In fact, there are new studies that indicate pain may affect the immune system in such a way that cancer cells speed up their growth when there is pain in the body. We have been healing chronic pain through stem-cell or regenerative cell treatments. Our regenerative cells are what is known as “immune-privileged,” meaning that they enjoy a tolerance by the body which does not mount an immune attack or inflammatory response against them that would impair their usefulness. For those not considering stem cell treatments, we have 30 years’ experience reducing neck-back-joint pains with non-surgical Reconstructive Therapy and gentle prolozone injections. You haven’t heard of these from surgeons or other physicians – so we encourage you to get real answers to help your pain problems without surgery or daily drugs. If there has ever been a time to fully understand the importance of having a fully functioning healthy immune system, this is it. It is time to really address chronic pain and other issues that compromise your health and well-being. If you are ready to seriously heal your body, contact my office.

  • What IF a Second Opinion Could SAVE YOU From An Avoidable Operation Or Side-Effects of Drugs? | Health Choices Now

    General Topics What IF a Second Opinion Could SAVE YOU From An Avoidable Operation Or Side-Effects of Drugs? Times are tight. Everyone’s squeezing the last bit of value out of every dollar. And for many, that means going to hospitals and doctors that accept your insurance. What people often overlook is how such a choice might impact their future well being. It’s not just a matter of “this” or “that” doctor who do the same operation, it’s not just a matter of “this” or “that” drug that do basically the same treatment, it’s not just a matter of “this or “that” hospital that provides essentially the same kind of care. What IF ….. your “bone-on-bone” arthritis could get dramatically better without surgery? Our results with RT have been dramatic over the past 22 years – a fact you wouldn’t know unless you were here for treatments! (Our “90 %” success with neck and back and shoulder and knee pains is over-shadowed by our success with ankles … we’ve never yet missed getting one better.) What IF ….. your congestive heart failure improved with our almost-20-year-old program developed to help just exactly that? Again, a fact you wouldn’t know. (Our leg treatments work even better, and we’re thrilled to save folks from amputations.) What IF ….. your reflux esophagitis (“heartburn” or belly pains) went away with our seemingly-magic program that returns your gut to more normal function? How would you know? (MOST of our patients had “given up,” believing that their discomforts could never get better – after all, they’d had the ‘scopes and x-rays and CAT scans and so on and on for years. Do you know how many hundreds of medical problems improve when treated as The Yeast Syndrome?) As people have started pinching their pennies, many have forgotten to invite their friends and family to consider a Second Opinion with us, before they go on with surgery or “Ask your doctor if BLAH-BLAH is the right medicine for you.” So, we want to remind you – we’re here to meet your needs, turning your God-given ability for healing into wonderful results for you, without daily drugs and without surgery. Are you ready to get out of your pain and on with your life? We’re ready to help ….. YOU!

  • The Role Periodontal Disease Plays In COVID-19 | Health Choices Now

    General Topics The Role Periodontal Disease Plays In COVID-19 The entire world is in a tizzy over the COVID19 virus. It’s big news. And it has put just about everyone in the clenches of fear. While I acknowledge that COVID19 is an easily communicable virus with deadly effects, I also want to acknowledge that those who get the virus, and more importantly those who die from getting it, have pre-existing health conditions that make them more vulnerable than someone in robust health with a strong immune system. The most vulnerable conditions that make people susceptible to getting the virus are underlying diseases, advanced age, obesity, smoking, heart disease, cancer, drug and alcohol use and abuse, among others. Now, if you were to examine any of the individuals who have gotten the disease and those I’ve just described as being most vulnerable, you are likely to discover they all have one thing in common: periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is not a disease that you hear people talking about, yet it is coming to be acknowledged as being the root cause for pretty much all of the diseases everyone does clamor about. From diabetes to strokes to heart disease, periodontal disease is more than likely an issue too, but not part of the health discussion. The prospect that dental infections might predispose one for more serious viral episodes including the common flu is not at all far-fetched. More than 50% of the American population over 30 years of age have periodontal disease. And it gets more prevalent with age. This may be one reason children have fewer complications with COVID-19. Their gums and teeth are in better condition. Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammation and infection that when left untreated permeates the entire bodily system. Ultimately, a healthy immune system is the best defense against any old and new disease. Good oral health provides a strong foundation for overall health. Integrative practitioners and biological dentists are playing a critical role in helping patients restore and maintain more robust immune system function critical for surviving any infection.

  • Suicides And Drug Overdoses Are Not Really The Only Deaths Of Despair | Health Choices Now

    General Topics Suicides And Drug Overdoses Are Not Really The Only Deaths Of Despair Let me make one thing perfectly clear: we are all going to die someday. But, until that day comes, everyone wants to feel good, feel as vibrantly healthy as possible and enjoy all the goodness that life has to offer. If you have been running from one doctor to another, one specialist to another for years and still feel terrible, tired and disgusted, you are not alone. There are millions of people who die every year after spending a lifetime trying to feel better and improve their health by staying in the mainstream medical system, only to be told time and time again that nothing can be done to make them feel better. As I see it, this kind of life often ends in a “death of despair.” Even though according to the National Center for Health Statistics, the only deaths they consider “deaths of despair” are suicides and drug overdose, I simply don’t see it that way. I see despair in patients who come to me after spending years and sometimes tens of thousands of dollars trying to feel better. Yet, I acknowledge that those who make it to my door do tend to have just the tiniest bit of hope left. Otherwise, they wouldn’t make their way to me. Soon their hope is restored as is their vitality and love for life. Life Expectancy Numbers Go Down According to the National Center for Health Statistics, in 2019, the life expectancy for American men “dropped for a third consecutive year.” They cited the “deaths of despair” as the reason for that increase. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/life-expectancy-for-american-men-drops-for-a-third-year/ However, when you consider the number of deaths that occur every year from heart disease, cancer, kidney disease, COPD and obesity, it’s pretty easy to lose hope. The following is just one example I recently came across as I trolled the Internet and is pretty typical of people who are hooked on the mainstream medical system. While this is not one of my patients, the story is also one I’ve heard time and time again. “I spent the majority of the summer of 2017 in bed. I had debilitating chronic inflammation, joint pain, and heartburn. I’d been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation two years prior, and my episodes were getting worse. My digestive system constantly felt off; I was either nauseated or had a burning sensation in my stomach.” “My primary doctor said it was probably just acid reflux and kept giving me different prescriptions and telling me to stay away from acidic foods. Nothing worked. I saw an allergist and a cardiologist, who ran numerous tests. No one could tell me why I felt so terrible. I was scared. I felt as though I was dying.” Fortunately, the person who had this experience found an alternative to mainstream medical doctors and found improved health and vitality. Death By Disease Figures Keep Climbing Let me start by telling you that officially no one in the U.S. dies of “old age.” That’s according to the NCHS, which is the government agency responsible for collecting statistical information on how we die. In the NCHS’s instructions for filling out death certificates, “old age” is discouraged for use as a cause of death: “Terms such as senescence , infirmity, old age, and advanced age have little value for public health or medical research.” Instead, physicians are told to list the immediate cause of death and any conditions that led up to it (for example, acute kidney failure as a consequence of diabetes). https://www.everydayhealth.com/senior-health/do-people-really-die-of-old-age.aspx Cardiovascular Disease Approximately 1.5 million heart attacks and strokes occur every year in the United States. More than 800,000 people in the United States die from cardiovascular disease each year—that’s 1 in every 3 deaths, and about 160,000 of them occur in people under age 65. https://millionhearts.hhs.gov/learn-prevent/cost-consequences.html My comprehensive approach to care can help many find relief from suffering, more vibrant health, even many more years of life Cancer In 2020, an estimated 1,806,590 new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in the United States and 606,520 people will die from the disease. . My comprehensive approach to care can help many find relief from suffering, more vibrant health, even many more years of life. https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/understanding/statistics My comprehensive approach to care can help many find relief from suffering, more vibrant health, even many more years of life Kidney Disease In 2010, an estimated 2.3–7.1 million people with end-stage kidney disease died without access to chronic dialysis. Additionally, each year, around 1.7 million people are thought to die from acute kidney injury. Overall, therefore, an estimated 5–10 million people die annually from kidney disease. https://www.who.int/bulletin/volumes/96/6/17-206441/en/ My comprehensive approach to care can help many find relief from suffering, more vibrant health, even many more years of life But wait, there’s more to this story. 20 years later, as of July 17, 2019, according to the latest data from the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), he number of American adults who have chronic kidney disease (CKD) is now estimated to be 37 million – that’s one out of every seven or 15 percent of the adult population. https://www.kidney.org/news/37-million-american-adults-now-estimated-to-have-chronic-kidney-disease COPD COPD refers to a group of diseases that cause airflow blockage and breathing-related problems. COPD affects more than 15 million Americans. More than 140,000 Americans die of COPD each year – that is 1 death every 4 minutes! https://www.cdc.gov/dotw/copd/index.html My comprehensive approach to care can help many find relief from suffering, more vibrant health, even many more years of life Obesity According to the National Institutes of Health, obesity and overweight together are the second leading cause of preventable death in the United States, close behind tobacco use (3). An estimated 300,000 deaths per year are due to the obesity epidemic (57). https://www.wvdhhr.org/bph/oehp/obesity/mortality.htm My comprehensive approach to care can help many find relief from suffering, more vibrant health, even many more years of life Let Me Help Restore Your Hope In every area mentioned above, my comprehensive approach to care can help many find relief from suffering, more vibrant health, even many more years of life.

  • The Vow Of Do No Harm vs. The Pride Of Make No Mistake | Health Choices Now

    General Topics The Vow Of Do No Harm vs. The Pride Of Make No Mistake Most people are unaware that medical errors kill anywhere from 44,000 to 98,000 Americans each year. With a statement like that from an expert panel formed by the Institute of Medicine, part of the National Academy of Sciences, the truth could very well be that your doctor, instead of healing you, is possibly harming you. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1117251/ With that score and a global pandemic, you may wonder how good your chances of survival really are! The medical mistakes are far more insidious than the COVID-19 virus. Unacceptable Yet All-Pervasive According to the chairman of the 19-member panel that concluded the aforementioned effects of medical errors, William C Robinson, president of the W K Kellogg Foundation in Battle Creek, Michigan at the time, “These stunningly high rates of medical errors—resulting in deaths, permanent disability, and unnecessary suffering—are simply unacceptable in a medical system that promises first to ‘do no harm.’” In large part, the errors are a result of what physicians are taught. This was addressed in a New York Times article back in 1999, entitled “Do No Harm – Breaking Down Medicine’s Culture of Silence.” The article states that, “Physicians are taught that it’s your job not to make a mistake. It’s like a sin. The whole concept of error as sin, as a moral failing, is deeply ingrained in medicine, and it is very destructive. It means people cannot talk about it, because it is too painful.” I acknowledge this to be true. And this is in large part why I parted ways with the mainstream medical community very early on in my career. Blame vs. Responsibility If a physician is taught to do no harm and not to make mistakes, that is a terrible bind. It seems the fear of making mistakes has won out in our society. Combine that with a culture that is more impressed with high-tech surgeries and pills that promise instant relief instead of actually discovering what is at the root of a patient’s actual suffering/pain/malady, and you have got yourself one heck of a mess. Responsibility for one’s well-being is not a one-way street. Patients are taught to believe that doctors are like gods. Far too many people take no responsibility for their health and place 100% of the responsibility on their physicians. Yes, doctors are educated about the human body, however, we are intuitive beings, and we know that our miraculous bodies are self-healing if we would only tune into the true source of “dis-ease.” And, if only doctors were trained to tune into the true source of their patient’s “dis-ease.” Way back in 1999 when the expert panel did the research that revealed the number of people dying annually from medical errors, the same study stated, “Besides the glaring errors, like when Willie King had the wrong leg amputated at University Community Hospital in Tampa, Florida, in 1995—the panel found that more than 7000 Americans died each year as a result of “medication errors,” which included the prescribing or dispensing of the wrong drugs. For example, the panel said, pharmacists often had difficulty deciphering the illegible handwriting of doctors who prescribe drugs.” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1117251/ Today we know that the number of deaths due to the dispensing of drugs has increased significantly due to the opioid epidemic. Health is our greatest wealth, and we are individually responsible for the maintenance of our human bodies. Yes, we do need guidance by someone educated about the inner workings of these amazing creations called bodies. However, we can’t just turn ourselves over and expect doctors to make miracles happen if we constantly abuse our health by eating unhealthy foods, smoking, drinking, not exercising and engaging in dangerous behaviors. No matter how good a mechanic is, you don’t expect miracles if you keep driving your car into a brick wall. Likewise, you can’t blame doctors if you don’t take responsibility for your health. That doesn’t make doctors less responsible when they make mistakes. They must own up to their mistakes too. Work With Doctors Who Work With The Self-Healing Wonders Of The Human Body There are extraordinary physicians who do not practice according to the mainstream medical guidelines. I know because I am one of them. Integrative healthcare practitioners (also known as “Complementary” or even “Alternative” physicians) are topics you can look under to find a physician who will work with your body’s natural healing system to restore your health and well-being. If you are really ready to take responsibility for your health, don’t keep doing what you’ve been doing. Clearly, it isn’t working, and the majority of doctors are not going to suddenly be open about making mistakes. So, give me a call and let’s get you on the road to feeling better than you’ve felt in years. Heed These Take-Home Lessons: First – Healing means regaining and maintaining more robust vitality, not just reducing pains or disabilities to some tolerable levels… Second – Amateurs practice until they get it right; professionals practice until they can’t get it wrong. Third – As famed oil field firefighter Red Adair cautioned, “If you think it’s expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur.” Previous Next Related Articles The Colon Cleanse Debate When You Sincerely Want To Feel Better And All Else Has Failed The Medical Industry Has Turned Humans Into Yeast Factories Neural Fascial Therapy Repairs Nerves And Relieves Pain The Fire Within How To Tell If You’re Suffering From UPF Immunity-Inflammation-Infection Your Chronic Suffering Could Be Due To Chronic Infection You Only Get One Space Suit When You Arrive On Planet Earth Professional Oral Health Care Helps Prevent Heart Attacks & Strokes Your Body Could Be Hosting A Yeast Feast Here’s The Stopping Point For Anyone Ready To Get Off The Pain Train What You Don’t Know About Reconstructive Therapy (RT) Could Keep You In Pain A Strong Immune System Is Always The Best Defense To Overcome Any Disease First Physician President Of The International Academy Of Biological Dentistry And Medicine Shares Facts About How Your Mouth Creates Degenerative Diseases That You’ll Never Hear Elsewhere Your Major Defense Against Disease Is What You Feed Your Body Managing Cardiovascular Diseases: Ramblings of a Maniacal Frenetic: Pragmatic Reflections on Helping Patients Understand Their Illnesses and Treatments The Rumble in Humble Suicides And Drug Overdoses Are Not Really The Only Deaths Of Despair Is Cholesterol The Culprit Or Is It The Yeast Syndrome Spreading the Word on Biological Dentistry and Medicine Non-surgical Treatment for Arthritis Your Mouth Might Be Trying To Tell You Something About Your Overall Health Good Fat vs. Bad Fat: What You Need to Know How Patients Go From Being ‘Untreatable’ To Feeling Better In 100 Days Or Less Hours We Are Available Monday 8:30 AM - 3:00 PM Tuesday 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM Wednesday 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM Thursday 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM Friday Closed Saturday Closed Sunday Closed Office Location 9816 Memorial Blvd – Suite 205 Humble, Texas 77338 Contact Us Phone: DIAL 1-800-FIX-PAIN 281-540-2329 Email: info@healthCHOICESnow.com Quick Links Home About Us Treatments Testimonials Learning Center Contact Us Privacy Policy Disclaimer Terms of Use If you know the Humble area, our office is 1/2 miles south of Deerbrook Mall (FM 1960), off the west side feeder road for US 59 - turning right toward the hospital, we're the second building on your left - red brick, 2 story building.

  • Type 2 Diabetes | Health Choices Now

    Explore personalized approaches to Type 2 diabetes management with Dr. John Trowbridge at Health Choices Now in Humble, TX, focusing on metabolic health and wellness. | Type 2 Diabetes The “ultimate” diabetes solution? Could this really be a treatment that could work for you? You’re worried. We’ve got that. You’ve probably been fearful for years. We’ve got that too. You’ve seen doctors and specialists and maybe even voo-doo practitioners in your search for easy answers. We’ve got that too. You’ve tried every diet that you thought might help. We’ve got that too. You’re taking the drugs and maybe even facing insulin shots. We’ve got that too. Let’s unravel the mystery, so you could finally feel better rather than simply taking more drugs and facing heart attacks, strokes, blindness, kidney failure, gangrene, and even one or more operations. How would you know if the treatment you get is the treatment you need? After all, the doctor simply said “You need to start taking this medication for your blood sugars, they’re way too high.” Maybe you’ve already started onto insulin. With the drugs and with insulin, there’s a situation where you can “start chasing your tail,” requiring higher and higher dosages for the same result. That sounds like slipping backwards, faster and faster. None of these approaches actually “treat” your diabetes – they are simply “bandaids” needed continuously or repeatedly, trying to cover the imbalance in your metabolism. Many people never realize that other simple options … which might help you actually reduce your need for drugs … are readily available, here and now. HERE’S A SCARY FACT: Some people dealing with higher blood sugars don’t realize that sugars and starches are making their condition worse or what steps they could take to make a difference. Care that makes you truly better requires special expertise in the science of metabolism and nutrition. Sounds so simple … so why have doctors missed it? Those who don’t have a strong basic science background and special training in dealing with metabolic processes can fail to see their way through to help you. The reasons you can have a distressing diabetic blood sugar pattern are many … but diagnosis and treatment to help reduce your need for drugs can be simpler than you think! Could there be anything better than what you’ve been told? The answer is a simple “yes”: there are several treatments that might be better for you. detoxification of offending chemicals and toxic metals gentle metabolic stimulation for healing and repair treatment for undiscovered deficiencies prolozone (prolotherapy) with ozone, an almost painless injection used for dozens of years in Europe neural therapy, using a tiny needle to inject local anesthetic to correct damage inside Start Now Request Consultation Let us help you through the confusing maze of diagnoses and treatments to select what is best to produce the result you want, so you can do what you want to do!
