 If you come into the method with multiple or ill-defined objectives you will not be able to gain the benefit. You can have multiple goals but you'll want to focus on one goal every time you use the method.
Recall the universal principle of abundance and don't think "small" with regard to your goals. Don't think for a moment that you'll have to settle for anything less than what you desire. Think big.
Now you're ready to start. Turn on the CD. In it, you will hear me guide you through an induction. Then I will have you meditate for a few minutes until you are very calm. |

 I've helped patients recover from multiple drug addictions; reverse heart disease; prevent and fight cancer; improve mental, physical, and sexual performance, even when challenged with diseases including multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's; and become pregnant—all through good nutrition practices.
Though I enjoyed meeting with patients and their families, I had always desired to get out my positive health message to the greatest number of people possible. |

 Take a High-Potency multiple Vitamin and Mineral Formula with Chromium
A deficiency of any one of several key nutrients required for the proper manufacture and function of insulin can lead to impaired sugar metabolism. Especially important are the minerals chromium, magnesium, zinc, and manganese, and B vitamins. The use of a multiple vitamin and mineral supplements is associated with a minimum 30 percent reduction of diabetes risk in men and a 16 percent reduction in risk for women; however, the supplements used in these studies were far from ideal, in our opinion. |

 Refresh: Cycles the battery multiple times to restore better performance.
Test: Determines the actual capacity of the battery in mAh.
If offers multiple safety features such as temperature sending, polarity detection and a way to determine if batteries are defective. Four independent channels allow you to charge batteries separately, and an LCD display shows you the status of each battery.
The features of the BC-900 sound very strong on paper, but in actually using the product, I found it to be extremely confusing, difficult to use and finicky. |

 Repeat the process if necessary, because there may be multiple time frames that need to be accessed to resolve the issue or pattern more completely.
Just as in your practice with the Two-Point procedure, there may be multiple times or events layered into the pattern you are working with. Keep going back to your Time Travel procedure, counting back farther each time until no more change occurs when you do this procedure for the particular event or problem. Take a look at the example of me doing this on the Matrix Energetics website. It is not at all difficult to do. |

 Researchers at Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland, found that ginkgo extracts improved various thinking processes in patients with multiple sclerosis. The subjects experienced an improvement in attention, planning, and decision making. All of the patients had previously sustained cognitive impairments as part of their multiple sclerosis.
Dosage: Take 240 to 360 mg of standardized ginkgo extract daily. Divide the amounts, and take them two or three times daily.

 Now, there are signs that children whose mothers received multiple doses of betamethasone have increased levels of hyperactivity and slower than normal overall growth. A recent University of Toronto study demonstrated that these effects may continue for multiple generations. The leader of the study believes the betamethasone causes epigenetic changes in the fetus that are passed on to its own offspring in turn. One doctor who specializes in treating premature babies said the study was "terrifying beyond comprehension. |

 It is a common-sense argument to use a natural product over a foreign substance to treat disease and promote health, and there are multiple studies that back up this idea.
FINAL THOUGHTS
When there are bioidentical natural versions of a hormone available, the synthetic versions should not be used. Provera? the synthetic version of progesterone (see Figure 1) should never be used. Its use is associated with many serious adverse effects including an increased risk of breast cancer, heart attacks, stroke, and irreversible osteoporosis. Provera? |

 Multiple heart attacks and widespread scarring weaken the heart, sometimes causing it to fail, a condition called congestive heart failure. If a heart attack is extensive, if it disrupts rhythmical contraction, or if congestive heart failure is prolonged, the victim may die.
My research shows that this entire process is preventable—and that through nutrition (plus, in some cases, low doses of cholesterol-lowering drugs) the risk of heart attack and heart failure can be eliminated. Scientists and physicians have been slow to recognize the connection between nutrition and coronary disease. |
| It showed multiple blockages of his coronary arteries. "They marched what seemed like eighty doctors through my room, insisting that I have bypass surgery," Jack says. But he adamantly refused, recalling the serious complications one of his brothers had experienced during a bypass operation. Unable to budge him, Jack says, "they suggested I consider seeing Dr. Esselstyn."
During counseling, Jack listened intently and fully understood what he had to do. He would have to follow the program at a distance. At the time, he was employed by General Tire in Akron. |

| Granted, it's not always easy to realign your priorities at work and home, especially if your boss wants to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously. To shuffle your priorities, you must take a moment to consider what you're doing and must be willing to make some changes. And for many people, changing their routines is uncomfortable, if not a little scary.
Make "To Do " Lists. Lists are wonderful organizational tools—they can help you decide what's important and what isn't, as well as help you remember what you must do. |

 The use of multiple medications. Polypharmacy is a fact of life for some people, but they need to be aware that nutrient depletion can be amplified by this.
• Poor diet. This is pretty obvious. If you're eating poorly and taking one or more medications that deplete nutrients, you're digging a hole for yourself faster than if you're eating well and taking those same medications.
The more of these factors that ring true for you, the more likely you are to benefit from careful, targeted nutrient supplementation along with the medicines you take. |

| Multiple heart attacks and widespread scarring weaken the heart, sometimes causing it to fail. That condition is known as congestive heart failure. If the heart attack is extensive, if it results in an abnormal rhythmical contraction, or if the congestive heart failure is prolonged, the person may die.
If the same process of plaque formation occurs in a noncoronary artery, it can be just as dangerous. Whatever tissue the artery supplies—it could be the leg muscles or even the brain—will not receive its full measure of blood. |

I waited five years before publishing my first report on our results. Angina was diminished in all patients, and had completely disappeared in several more. Follow-up angiograms had shown some stunning reversals of disease. Average total cholesterol was 137 mg/dL, and average LDL was 77 mg/dL. After twelve years, the end of the formal study, I could report that seventeen of the eighteen original patients had experienced no subsequent coronary events since the start of the research. |

 How about arthritis, asthma, skin lesions like psoriasis, eczema, and autoimmune diseases like lupus, multiple sclerosis, and Crohn's? Ironically, we're looking for the sinister cause of the staggering increase in childhood asthma, all the while stuffing our youngsters with refined grain products. Is it any wonder that we're depressed, achy, and having our hips and knees replaced right and left?
But, evidence is mounting that high-dose omega-3 therapy is effective in reversing many of these inflammatory conditions. What's surprising is that we are only now rediscovering these facts. |

• Take herbal supplements and high-powered antioxidants. Some supplements appear to be effective at lowering blood pressure. See the recommendations at the end of the chapter for a list of specific supplements and dosage recommendations. Check with your pharmacist before adding garlic or hawthorn to your daily supplements.
• Cram your diet full of antioxidants, anti-inflammatory herbs, and antioxidant-rich foods. |

•Not clarifying which parent is responsible for medicating a child—or which caregiver is responsible for medicating an adult. This can lead to double dosing or missed doses.
•Taking medication in the dark—or in a hurry. Read labels carefully.

A FRESH PERSPECTIVE ON HEALTH AND HEALING
If a warning light on your car's dashboard goes on, what do you do?
1. Unplug it so it stops flashing.
2. Pop the hood to see what's wrong, and/or take it to a mechanic.
Of course, you'd choose the second option. Better to attack the problem at its source and fix it so that your car runs smoothly. |

 Dipeptidyl peptidase is a protein that has multiple functions in the body. When found on the mucosal membrane of the intestinal tract lining, it is known as DPP-IV. DPP-IV is a proteolytic enzyme that is able to break down a particular protein believed to be a contributing factor in gluten and casein intolerance. Though DPP-IV is technically a metabolic enzyme produced by the body, the activity has been discovered in a plant-based protease. |

 For instance, take multiple sclerosis, or really many of the degenerative nervous-system diseases. I have found that one of the Energetic Terrains may affect the outside of the axon in the Schwann cells of the nervous system. That's something not even considered in mainstream medicine—that there is an energetic connection to the physical symptoms. These types of complex diseases are very hard to assess, but maybe we can get a bit farther with them if we factor in the body-field, the Energetic Terrains, and such. |

| Sometimes it is misdiagnosed as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, or other (mainly autoimmune and neurological) diseases. Lyme disease is considered one of the fastest growing infectious diseases in the United States.
The first symptom of this condition is generally the appearance of a rash and a red papule on the skin a few days following a tick bite. |
| As an illustration, one product that contains multiple enzyme blends may contain 80,000 HUTs of protease, whereas a competing product with one enzyme type may list 100,000 HUTs. Despite the difference in active units, the 80,000 HUT product will be more potent since the blended product will work longer in the body and ultimately break more bonds than the other product. Which is a better value? In this example, the one with fewer active units but more enzymes would be a better value! |
| The regulatory T cells contribute in multiple ways: Some activate other immune cells. Others act to turn off or suppress immune cells when the threat is over. A third type help rid the body of cells that have been infected by viruses, cancer, and other pathogens. They are also the cells responsible for the rejection of tissue and organ grafts.
Whenever T cells and B cells are activated, some are stored in the lymphatic system as "memory" cells, so the next time the system encounters that same antigen it is primed to destroy it quickly. |
| Although potency is often difficult to assess (see appendix A), the best products contain high active units (not milligrams) with multiple strains in each category. This is often expressed as a blend of protease, lipase, or amylase. This blending will allow the enzymes to break down more protein, fat, and carbohydrates over a longer period of time.
3. Find a product with no fillers added. Many products are formulated in a way that requires fillers to be added to either fill out the capsule or help bind the tablet together. |

 The bottom line in this case: "It's more effective to have lower doses of multiple agents acting in different ways than a lot of one agent acting by one mechanism," explains Dr. Kris-Etherton.
Fish omega-3s may up the need for vitamin E. To prevent heart disease, a number of experts recommend aiming for about 0.5 gram per day of EPA and DHA (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid) omega-3s in fish. When heart disease is already present, 1 gram per day is recommended. |
| But here's the fascinating news that suggests to me that soy has synergy from multiple components in this mighty bean, and the best way to get soy is probably as a whole food: In lab studies, when Dr. Hillman isolated the soy isoflavone, genistein, it boosted the cancer cells' sensitivity to radiation, but it also showed the potential to help tumor cells spread from the prostate to the lymph nodes. However, when she switched to more complete soy powder, she got the same exciting radiosensitive effect on the cancer cells but without the negative effect of the tumor spreading. |
| The dark green veggies ended up on many of the lists in this book—for vegetables high in vitamin C; with multiple carotenoids; and tops in potassium, calcium, magnesium, and vitamin E. My favorite way to get a daily dose of dark green veggies can be summed up in two words: raw spinach. Buy a bag of triple-washed, ready-to-go spinach leaves, and a quick salad can be yours at a moment's notice. Every time I make scrambled eggs or an omelet (with omega-3 eggs), I toss in a bunch of raw spinach. It's easy! |

 Other FM Therapies
A number of initial reports point to other potential therapies for widespread pain with multiple areas of tenderness. People whose bodies produce a low level of growth hormone (GH) may experience low energy, poor cognition, and an impaired ability to exercise. Researchers studied what it would be like to administer additional growth hormone to FM patients whose bodies secreted only a low level of GH. |
