 This rising problem of Television deficiency Disorder may explain our plummeting ratings," said Freeh Quincy, the director of programming for MSNBCBS. "We are doing our part to help eradicate this disease by taking millions of dollars from drug companies and running their advertisements alongside news reports that highlight the disorder."
Even as tens of millions of Americans may now be suffering from Television deficiency Disorder, third world countries are hit even harder. "Many countries don't even have televisions," warned Dr. |

 Biotin deficiency, zinc deficiency, magnesium deficiency are all problems. "Anytime you are deficient in micronutrients throughout life you're taking it out of DNA and aging faster and getting cancer."
Dr. Ames explained that black people are not getting enough sun in the US. All African Americans have Vitamin D deficiency and they consequently have higher rates of cancer. Slathering on sunscreen is not such a good idea. We've gone too far with sunscreen because we're not getting enough Vitamin D. This is a "coming public health disaster in the US. |

| REPPED: More than thirty-five million Americans may currently be suffering from a newly-discovered disorder that affects brain chemistry, behavior and health: Television deficiency Disorder, or TDD for short. Based on work by Dr. Anne Tennah, a psychiatrist who specializes in brain chemistry disorders, this little-known disorder is now thought to be more widespread than ADHD and Bi-Polar combined.
Television deficiency Disorder is a serious condition brought on by a lack of television programming. Victims display excessive intelligence quotients (I.Q.s |
| Doctors also now believe that Television deficiency Disorder is genetic. "If your parents didn't watch much television, chances are that you won't either," explained Dr. Tennah. "That puts you at high risk for TDD disorder, and treatment is recommended to prevent the disorder in all high-risk patients."
Television and cable news channels are also urging the public to be tested. "This rising problem of Television deficiency Disorder may explain our plummeting ratings," said Freeh Quincy, the director of programming for MSNBCBS. |
| Television deficiency Disorder is a serious condition brought on by a lack of television programming. Victims display excessive intelligence quotients (I.Q.s), an exaggerated sense of self esteem, and "suspiciously high" levels of physical activity that keep them strangely thin. "These victims stray from societal norms," explained Dr. Tennah. "With their heightened cognitive function but lack of exposure to sitcoms, reality shows and shaped news programs, they are unable to interact with normal people in society."

 Adams: Now that's even more shocking, it's obviously a chronic deficiency.
Dr. Holick: But here's even a bigger shock. I had been concerned, and others had been concerned as well, that if you're not exposed to any sunlight or if you have very deep skin pigmentation, that you need 1000 international units of vitamin D to satisfy your body's requirements. And so we reasoned that probably women during pregnancy, even though they're taking their prenatal vitamins that contain 400 units of vitamin D, they're only getting 40% of what they need. |

 I say to people when I speak and when I do appearances on CNN and ABC and CBS and NBC news, "Depression is not a deficiency of Prozac". Depression is also not a deficiency of St John's Wort.
Mike:Exactly.
Dr. Duncan: A headache is not a deficiency of Tylenol. It's also not a deficiency of feverfew. Go to the core.
Mike: Right.
Dr. Duncan: Go to the root. Go deep and you'll get the answer.
Mike: And I want to cover a touchy subject that you already mentioned. Some people aren't comfortable even talking about bowel movements, but I say, "Look, let's talk about it. |

 You don't need to have scurvy to have a vitamin C deficiency. (Here's an eye-opener: in the last twenty-five years the level of vitamin C deficiency in our population has gone from 3 to 5 percent to a confounding 20 percent—largely due to the shift from whole foods to processed foods.) Vitamin C is essential to your body's breakdown and utilization of food, and the body can neither manufacture it on its own or store it. By the same token, you don't need to have osteoporosis to have a calcium deficiency, yet millions don't get enough calcium on a daily basis as a result of diet choices. |

| Even as tens of millions of Americans may now be suffering from Television deficiency Disorder, third world countries are hit even harder. "Many countries don't even have televisions," warned Dr. Anne Tennah, "And as a result, they are in the midst of widespread TDD epidemics that are worse than AIDS." International aid is being organized to help bring such countries more television programming, along with western junk food restaurants, drug companies and soda giants to support the advertising requirements of local television shows. |
| The medications used to treat Television deficiency Disorder have, coincidentally, just been approved by the Fraud and Drug Administration. Manufactured by ConPhuzer, a Big Pharma giant, the drugs are stimulant amphetamines similar to those prescribed for ADHD, but with much higher potency. "These drugs put children in a quiet, receptive state where they can sit in front of the television for hours and soak up all the programming they need," explained Dr. Tennah. "They're miracle drugs. I intend on prescribing them to all my patients."
Share prices for ConPhuzer rose $2. |

 Not dreaming or not being able to remember your dreams is a sign of vitamin B6 deficiency, and white spots on the fingernails are a sign of zinc deficiency.
Dosage: Take 50 to 250 mg daily, plus a B-complex supplement. If you take more than 100 mg of vitamin B6 daily for longer than six months, ask your physician to measure both your vitamin B6 and your aspartate aminotransferase levels. The latter is an enzyme that depends on vitamin B6, and low levels indicate poor vitamin B6 activity. |

 Further, since those who suffer from vitamin A deficiency suffer from malnutrition generally, increasing the food security and nutritional security of the poor—through increasing the diversity of crops and the diversity of diets of poor people who suffer the highest rates of deficiency—is the reliable means for overcoming nutritional deficiencies."41

 From these studies it states that:
• Even a mild deficiency of choline produces cancer of the liver;
• vitamin E deficiency increases the risk of leukemia;
• iodine deficiency leads to cancer of the thyroid;
• deficiencies of various B vitamins result in liver damage, as well as cancers;
• deficiencies in zinc lead to cancer of the prostate;
• vitamin A deficiencies lead to tumor developments;
• and on, and on, and on.

 What's unique about these women is that one group had blocked fallopian tubes, and the other group had progesterone deficiency. The only long-term health effect the women with blocked tubes had was the inability to get pregnant. But more than 20 years later, the group with progesterone deficiency had tenfold more cancer.
How could this be? It's very simple: progesterone functions to inhibit cells from replicating. Progesterone increases the activity of a gene called P53, which protects us from cancer. |

 Inside, you'll learn:
Why many sick people are actually suffering from chronic protein absorption deficiency.
How specific protein peptides are being used as medicinal compounds.
The truth about common protein powders and why "whole food protein" is superior to isolated proteins.
How amino acids can act like powerful medicine in the human body.
Surprise! The gut has its own nervous system called "the second brain."
How protein deficiency accelerates aging.
Why gut problems (leaky gut syndrome, IBS, Crohn's disease and more) are often caused by poor nutrient assimilation. |

 Vitamin D deficiency may exacerbate type 2 diabetes and impair insulin production in the pancreas.
Obesity impairs vitamin D utilization in the body, meaning obese people need twice as much vitamin D.
Vitamin D is used around the world to treat Psoriasis.
Vitamin D deficiency causes schizophrenia.
Seasonal Affective Disorder is caused by a melatonin imbalance initiated by lack of exposure to sunlight.
Chronic vitamin D deficiency is often misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia because its symptoms are so similar: muscle weakness, aches and pains. |

 That may sound great if you're eating a diet of fried foods, hydrogenated oils and processed meat products, but even if you block the absorption of those obesity-promoting fats, you're still left in a state of deficiency concerning the healthy oils like omega-3 fatty acids. And if you eat more flaxseed or take fish oil capsules, guess what? Alli will interfere with those, too, causing you to miss out on at least some of their benefits.
What an incredibly genius idea for a drug! Transform adults into diaper-wearing little children, then leave them in a state of nutritional deficiency. |

 It is no more complex than saying scurvy is a result of vitamin C deficiency, or rickets is a result of vitamin D deficiency.
Many diseases automatically appear as a result of a deficiency in one or more nutrients, and osteoporosis, prostate cancer and breast cancer are all precipitated by a lack of vibrational nutrition, or natural sunlight. Even vitamin D is not the entire answer to this. |

| Given that most overweight people are already extremely deficient in omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and other healthy oils, this Alli drug is likely to put them in an even worse state of deficiency.
The drug works by interfering with the digestion of dietary fats, you see. That may sound great if you're eating a diet of fried foods, hydrogenated oils and processed meat products, but even if you block the absorption of those obesity-promoting fats, you're still left in a state of deficiency concerning the healthy oils like omega-3 fatty acids. |

 By blocking the receptor for progesterone, it causes a progesterone deficiency. When there is a progesterone deficiency present, bioidentical progesterone should be the treatment of choice. The same argument holds for estrogens?Premarin should never be used (unless you are treating a pregnant horse). When estrogen therapy is indicated, natural, bioidentical estrogens should be used. For more information about bioidentical hormones I refer the reader to The Miracle of Natural Hormones, 3?Edition.

| What else you should know: Many physicians assume that patients have an adequate intake of vitamin C unless they have symptoms of scurvy, the classic deficiency disease in which blood oozes from old wounds as the body literally disintegrates. Negligible amounts of vitamin C will prevent scurvy, which actually describes the final stage of deficiency before death. Mark Levine, M.D., Ph.D., a researcher at the U.S. National Institutes of Health, has found that the first symptoms of vitamin C deprivation are actually irritability and fatigue, two very common conditions. |

 Insulin corrects an identified deficiency; antidepressants are presumed to do the same. But this analogy is not valid. Depressed patients are commonly told they have a serotonin deficiency (or more generally, a biochemical problem), but no tests are performed to verify this statement. Moreover, unlike the case with insulin and diabetes, virtually nothing is known about the way a serotonin deficiency could cause depression. |

 The sweet and salty flavors are considered moistening and can help soothe conditions resulting from a deficiency of fluids. Herbs that have a moistening effect usually contain natural mucilage and are classified as demulcent and emollient. Dry skin, dry mucous membranes, dry cough, constipation, and irritated eyes can all benefit from moistening herbs. Moistening herbs also benefit the metabolism of fluids. Dryness can be a sign of yin deficiency, and many moistening herbs help build the yin fluids of the body.
Sour
The sour flavor is cooling, drying, and astringent. |

 Again, I think that the research has shown that dietary lack of essential fats constitutes a major deficiency. People and pets are very deficient in essential fats.
Food manufacturers take them all out, because they oxidize. So people and pets become very deficient. Every cell membrane and every membrane of every organelle in your body is made of fatty acids, these essential fatty acids. How could you possibly function without them? Ninety-five percent deficiency is found. |

 So this is how slippery the slope has become:
On April i, 2006 (note the date), The British Medical Journal ran a story introducing a new disorder: motivational deficiency disorder, or MoDed. The article went:
Extreme laziness may have a medical basis, say a group of high-profile Australian scientists, describing a new condition called Motivational deficiency Disorder. The condition is claimed to affect up to one in five Australians and is characterized by overwhelming and debilitating apathy. |

 So again, the question comes down to: "What is the incidence of calcium deficiency in the population?" And, this is where you're going to find tremendous disagreement depending on who you talk to. In my own opinion, calcium deficiency is chronic and widespread. I think most Americans and most people in the civilized world who consume processed foods or manufactured foods do exhibit a calcium deficiency.
But, understand that conventionally trained doctors, physicians and even dieticians would strongly disagree with that, because they're going off of Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) numbers. |

| Metabolic enzymes are then forced to perform this function instead of their intended job of healing. A deficiency of enzymes in the body is synonymous with a deficiency of life force. Nothing shows the value of raw foods more than the work done by the late Dr. Francis M. Pottenger. In 1946, he experimented with 900 cats. Half were fed raw milk and raw meat; the other half ate cooked meat and pasteurized (cooked) milk. During a ten-year period, he found that the cats on the raw diet thrived, while those on the cooked food diet showed all the degenerative diseases common in man. |
| By the same token, you don't need to have osteoporosis to have a calcium deficiency, yet millions don't get enough calcium on a daily basis as a result of diet choices. Symptoms can be as subde as appetite loss, bad breath, soft or brittle fingernails, fatigue, insomnia, general weakness, inability to recover from injury or illness quickly, impotence, and easy bruising.
The reason I point out the trend in nutrient and vitamin deficiency is because it relates directly to the body's ability to ward off illness, disease, and operate completely to combat incoming toxins. |
