Epigenetics: The Death of the Genetic Theory of Disease Transmission Paperback – May 20, 2014

If I could only own one book, it would have to be Epigenetics by Dr Joel Wallach DVM ND, his wife Dr. Ma Lan MD OMD and the Biomedical Nutritionist Dr. Gerhard Schrauzer PhD (who unfortunately passed away 5 months after Epigenetics was published in 2014...) You may ask "Why?" It's simple - the information contained within is worth it's weight in gold. Epigenetics should be read by every medical professional, every pet professional, every parent and most importantly by everyone who owns a human body.Epigenetics shines light in the dark recesses of the Big Pharma deception - that many "chronic illnesses" that we take for granted today are actually a result of common nutritional deficiencies. Since Medical Professionals rarely take a course in basic Nutrition 101 in medical school, how can they be expected to understand even the very basic of "diseases of yesteryear" such as Beriberi, Rickets, Scurvy or Pellagra? (deficiencies of Vitamin B1 - Thiamin, D, C and B3 - Niacin respectively.. though D is mislabeled as a vitamin when it is truly a hormone!) Folate deficiency results in abnormally large red blood cells... could this be contributing to the seeming pandemic of circulatory issues particularly in the micro blood vessels? (Folic Acid is synthetic and takes 4 steps to convert to "real folate" in the body, coupled with the fact that most people have MTHFR genetics further restricting this conversion process means that folic acid is NOT a viable substitute for REAL folate ie 5-MTHF... Challenge of the day - see if your medical professional is familiar with this basic accepted fact.) Even the word "Vitamin" was unknown prior to 1911, how have we come so far and then gone full circle forgetting these basic building blocks of nutrition in just a short 100 years of human existence?!I've personally read the research of a number of scientists and medical doctors who related arteriosclerosis as "scurvy of the heart" and congestive heart failure to B1 - thiamine deficiency (there's that Beriberi again!). In Epigenetics, Wallach relates performing an autopsy on a Rhesus monkey noting the pancreatic changes were typical of cystic fibrosis in humans - yet CF is supposedly a genetic defect ONLY FOUND IN HUMANS. There's even research linking MS to lead toxicity which can somewhat be alleviated by iron... There's so much research needing to be done with basic nutrition and connecting the dots to information already known (before it's forgotten), so why are most of the research dollars going to fund pharmaceutical research which are only designed to MANAGE the disease state instead of real nutrition designed to CURE the disease state?!? (Heck, even Dr. Thomas Scholbach in Germany has finally connected the dots showing that not only are May Thurner Syndrome, Nutcracker Syndrome, Pelvic Congestion Syndrome, CGCS / MALS and even the upper body Thoracic Outlet Syndrome are not only all commonly interrelated, he links them all to lumbar hyperlordosis and lumbar spinal injuries AND explains why EACH and ALL of these maladies are predominantly diagnosed in WOMEN 85% or so of the time. Not only that, but Dr. Scholbach FURTHER explains the WHY behind this predominance in women as a simple physics problem of the development of the female human pelvis during adolescence. However, all the research funds are again going to new surgical techniques and new medications, not into the basic foundation of WHY is this happening and what can be done to PREVENT this from developing in adolescent girls in the first place! Again corporate greed rules!)Another problem that stymies medical research - human pathology is related in terms of names of those who diagnosed or discovered specific traits. Animal pathology is related in descriptive names of changes in the organs and tissues, it's like decoding 2 different languages. Dr. Wallach understands both sides of the coin due to his unique educational background and professional experience both as a veterinarian as well as a human doctor. Dr. Ma Lan helps to decode the language of western medicine to the wisdom of ancient eastern understanding. Mix in the in vast knowledge of nutrition with Dr. Schrauzer and you have a winning combination for unlocking the truth behind these so-called incurable chronic illnesses.Did you know that each year all the dolphins were dying of congestive heart failure at Shedd's Aquarium in Chicago? Upon Wallach's intervention, once the dolphin's food was changed to correct the thiamin deficiency (beriberi), this problem completely abated.Did you know that in the 1950s the domestic turkey population suddenly were dying from aortic aneurysms after the industry had altered the turkey feed? Upon Wallach's discovery of the copper deficiency which has now been restored to turkey feed, it's very rare for turkey farmers to loose turkeys due to aortic aneurysms.Wallach found another zoo was unsuccessfully trying to breed arctic foxes, the few surviving pups from the small litters kept dying from a constantly changing variety of problems. Again, once the food supply was corrected (Wallach took the "genetically defective foxes" and put them on a toy breed dog food) within 2 years of his breeding attempts he had so many arctic foxes the zoo had to make a special display just for all the foxes. AND they begged Wallach not to do the same with their Elephants ;-)Indigenous cultures such as Native Americans use the word for "food" and "medicine" interchangeably. Let thy medicine be thy food.Do yourself a favor. Pick up a copy of Epigenetics. Keep it with you to read when you run errands especially where you may be waiting 5 or 10 or 15 minutes (I DARE you to read Epigenetics while waiting at your next doctor appointment! I'll even DOUBLE DARE YOU to buy an extra copy to give to your doctor or medical professional!) Plan to read Epigenetics in small tidbits. Not more than 3 or 4 pages at a time. I suspect you'll be fascinated and want to continue reading at greater length, however there's so much information packed into each bite-sized portion that it will take some time to digest fully before moving to the next course of the meal.Bon Appetit ! ;-)

DR Mortimer. I guess that you either did not read the book at its entirely or that your Allopathic education that has poor education at nutrition caused you to be blind. The entire book after showing how in history the accepted by agreement of science changed again and again (Should I mention Copernicus, Galileo, and lately the Fat/cholesterol Theory/scam) and how now how the theory of Genetics decide it all and the Newtonian model are replaced by Epigenetic. As it seems that you need a refresher, Dr. Wallach contribution for it is by researching, practice and creating a health model that based on providing the body the right and proper nutrition that the body needs so the body, by intervention (the nutrition) can heal itself within the genetic frame. As Dr. Wallach explain (and you can also check "The Biology of Belief" "You are your own Placebo" and many other books what Epigenetic is.Now to the "proof " side. I dont know how many people you cured from their diseases, and I assume that you did not cure anybody as Western medicine or the MD medicine is not trying to cure. You manage symptoms. You prescribe Medication to symptoms and hope that they will go away. You do not go after the causes of the diseases because a major part of the Allopathic Medicine is that you do not believe that the body can heal and cure itself. A great example of it is what Western Medicine call "Spontaneous Remission". What a joke. You MDs do not understand how a cancer patient that supposes to die not only did not die after the time that you gave her but he/she lived many years after. As you do not understand it you call it spontaneous "Something spontaneous happens when you're least expecting it. Spontaneous things are natural or instinctive, and they happen without warning." It is not spontaneous it is a hard work and it is involved alot of Meta Physical practice that as it can not be measured and quantify it has no merit in your MD's model. Check "Radical Remission".To Dr Wallach nutrition and the Epigenetic of nutrition.Here is a list of diseases that were healed ( and can I say Cured) By Dr. Wallach Nutrition. All the the people that took those nutritional protocols have tried before many different MDs treatment and Meds for years without success. Afrter reading the list please elaborate how successful were yo in treating and healing such or similar conditions in your years of experience.Acid reflux of 12 years is now 1 year clear completely medication free.Severe Migraine Headaches for 20 years with Cat scans, MRI Medications, Recommendation to avoid Coffee salt orange etc. several Hospital visits because of dehydration (Vomiting) is free of it since taking the nutrition and it is now 11 months longSeveral HBP cases that have a normal Blood pressure and Meds free after a matter of weeks and last a year now.Psoriasis what tour profession call "Auto immune disease" after 4 years is gone for 7 months.Thyroid issues and on medication for 12 years is now medication free for 10 months and the T3 and T4 are normal.Planned implants (50G) that was scheduled to Sep 2014 was canceled as the Dentist said"No need to do it anymore. The guns are not inflammation free, the bones grow again and it is now over a year, a nice save.Many Arthritis pain with dozen of people that the pain is gone and the Cartilage is regrowing. And the list go on and on.If the goal of Medicine and MDs is to guide and show people how to be healthy then such an impressive list will create some curiosity by MDs that do not deliver such success in their practice (and I do respect the MDs treatment in case of Trauma, Anti biotic and pain killers when needed). However you (plural) has no interest to know as of my experience. If you would like to know what those people that their above mentioned symptoms were mentioned here did email me and I will introduce you to Wholistic Medical Nutrition.
