By Michael Biamonte, C.C.N.

Michael Biamonte is now available on a regular basis for consultation by phone or E-mail . He is available Tuesday through Saturaday during normal office hours. Michael Biamonte is now excepting new patients. Michael Biamonte was gone from May of 1995 up to January of 1996 when he returned to update the staff on his new research and to help oversee the office redecoration.

He is now back and will be on a regular schedule again. Michael Biamonte is very excited about implementing many new protocols, here are a brief description of some:

Diabetes: we have a new 4 phase program that has been found to reduce the need for insulin and increase insulin activity in many people.

Candida and Parasite elimination: using the new CLEAN ME OUT PROGRAM as part of our 2nd phase of candida elimination we are getting better results then ever before. This is due to these herbs and their ability to remove hidden candida and parasites which were previously unreachable.

Allergy and Chemical sensitivity: Dr.B's latest research has shown that all allergic and chemically sensitive people have both a leaky gut and very poor liver detoxification. Dramatic improvements have been made by those who have undergone this new protocol.

Mineral absorption: Michael Biamonte has found that some people will not get results from a nutrition program due to very impaired mineral absorption. Due to this fact they will not get the results from supplements like others may. Dr.B is now researching more absorbable forms of minerals for these special cases.

Energy Programs: Dr.B spent considerable time analyzing what goes wrong in the cells of those with Chronic fatigue syndrome that cause their energy to be depleted even after their viruses are gone. He now has a new program to restore adrenal and cellular energy.

Kidney stone, osteoporosis and arthritis link: Through the research of Dr.Hulga Clark and Dr. David Watts, Dr. B has found a link between these conditions and has developed a new, more effective protocol to restore nutritional balance to the body.

Food reactions, leaky gut and arthritis: Several bacteria have been identified that live in the intestinal tract and which could cause rheumatoid arthritis if they were to get into the blood stream. Many people also get arthritic pain as an allergic reaction to foods. Recently a new substance, a protein found in fish, has been found to help repair this situation. If you have had joint pain and suffer from candida or digestive problems this applies to you.

CANCER AND CHEMOTHERAPY

Over the last 6 months I have spent considerable time researching the effects of chemotherapy on the body. I must admit that I was astonished at the damage that it does to the body.

Most people who undergo chemo develop difficulty in absorbing nutrients from their food. Further, it has been shown by many researchers that chemo can cause a drop in both total T-cells and T-cell activity. For this reason I have developed a new protocol to restore proper digestion and help repair the immune system.

Many people who undergo chemo also develop candidaisis or thrush. Candida is a yeast that causes both vaginal infections and digestive problems. This yeast will interfere with normal absorption of nutrients. If found, it must be eliminated.

To protect oneself while on chemo several areas must be addressed:

The digestive tract must be kept clean and friendly intestinal bacteria must be maintained.

Liver function must be protected by using antioxidant herbs and nutrients.

The right vitamins and minerals must be given to correct any deficiencies.

The immune system must be boosted with the correct herbs that can restore its function.

To date I have had 30 people utilize this approach while on chemo, they all reported fewer side effects then other being treated and maintained more normal blood chemistries than those not on this program.This type of program can help many people get through their chemotherapy more comfortably and recover faster from their illness.

ALLERGIES AND CHEMICAL SENSITIVITIES

Are you afraid to leave your house? Do you feel that you may be attacked at any moment if your not in a familiar surrounding? Are you not able to go out with friends to a concert, play or out to dinner for fear that something horrible may happen to you?

This is how someone who is chemically sensitive lives. Chemically sensitive people react to chemicals and toxins in our environment to such a degree that they may get violently ill or have a complete mental lapse. These people can suffer with memory loss, headaches, disorientation, diarrhea, skin rashes, generalized aches and pains, blurred or disturbed vision, insomnia, extreme fatigue, drowsiness, digestive upsets and many other symptoms. Some people can develop infections in the eyes, ears, nose or throat immediately after being exposed to chemicals and pollution.

Recently, I have detailed a new protocol for allergic and chemically sensitive people. I have found that all allergic and chemically sensitive people start out by developing leaky gut syndrome. Leaky gut can occur when an infection or chemical toxins like drugs, medication, alcohol or malnutrition can cause tiny tears or leaks in the intestinal tract. This then allows harmful germs and chemicals to spill into the blood stream.

It also allows foods which have not been fully broken down to enter the blood stream. The body reacts against these undigested foods by attacking them through our immune systems. We notice this attack as an allergic reaction.

As time goes by and more and more toxic substances leak into our blood stream, the liver begins to lose its ability to keep up with this and can no longer remove them from our blood and neutralize them into harmless substances. Eventually, the liver becomes so weak that we begin to have immediate toxic reactions like headaches, dizziness, nausea, weakness, blurred vision and exhaustion whenever we are exposed to smoke, fumes or chemical smells.

This is really the complete simplicity of how and why allergic and chemical sensitivities exist is people. Toxic metals such as mercury, copper and deficiencies of antioxidants also occur within this picture.

In order to reverse this, the following must occur:

Any infection in the intestinal tract that may cause damage to the gut must be eliminated.

The intestinal tract must be clean and friendly bacteria must be present.

Proper digestion must be restored and the intestinal linings must be healed so the "leakage" stops.

The liver must be detoxified.

Proper levels of vitamins and minerals that the liver needs to detoxify the body must be given in order to build the system back up.

When the steps are completed a dramatic change will be found. This does not happen over night. At least a year will be needed to go through each of these steps thoroughly.

Many times the doses of the nutrient required may have to be very, very low until the body can tolerate higher doses. There are many patients of mine reading this right who will tell you that they needed to start at doses so low that they could fit it the head of a pin and after some time they could take a higher dose and felt better from it without the previous reaction.

When nutrients are taken in tiny doses the body appears to desensitize itself to the substance and the bad reactions stop.

This appears to be because the nutrient is now doing its job in detoxifying and healing the body. Taking tiny, tiny amounts and then slowly raising the dose has been very successful for almost all my patients.

The only times I have seen this not work is in a case where the vitamin itself contains added ingredients which are toxic to the body. This is very common. It is recommended that only the purest hypoallergenic supplements be used.

WEIGHT LOSS IS A COMMON SIGN

Many of the people who suffer with this syndrome have difficulty gaining weight. The amazing thing is that some of them actually are eating enormous amounts. I used to think that people with this condition would be thin because their was so little that they could eat. However, when I had these patients keep food dairies I discovered that they where eating an awful lot. The problem is that part of the leaky gut syndrome brings with it the inability to absorb nutrients from our foods which leads to weight loss.

The good news is that thanks to this new protocol many people have been getting well and are beginning to lead normal lives again!
