In the April 2012 issue of her monthly newsletter “Total Wellness”, an overwhelmed parent asked Dr. Sherry Rogers, MD, noted Environmental Doctor, to comment regarding a child with allergies who is overweight and has a possible malfunctioning thyroid.
Dr. Rogers immediately implicated plasticizers which, as she says, “can do all of that and more” because they are the “number one pollutant in the human body”’. They damage glands and “every aspect of human metabolism, especially cell membranes to control allergies and the mitochondria where energy is made”.
Dr. Rogers’ recommendations follow:
1. A diet as organic as practical and financially possible.
Avoid junk food, trans fats, high fructose corn syrup, canola oil, “etc.”
2. Avoid foods packaged in plastic wrap, Styrofoam, plastic bottles, and jars
3. Spend at least an hour every day in the far infrared sauna using the mineral protocols (noted in the book “Detoxify or Die” written by Dr. Rogers)
4. Start PetaSol detox protocol for children (described in 2010 Total Wellness)
High Tech Health Far Infrared Sauna (2-person)
Dr. Rogers then noted that children now have levels of toxicity by age 6 that used to take till age 40 to accumulate.
In a past article (Total Wellness dtd August 2011), Dr. Rogers makes the point that the number one pollutant in the body, plasticizers or phthalates, can influence nearly every category in the popular Cardio/ION blood panel, which she highly recommends as a starting point to help identify clues to how phthalate toxicity may be interfering with your chemistry.
Dr. Rogers further states that poisoned mitochondria may stem from unsuspected phthalate poisoning. She notes that phthalates can also cause other issues which may eventually affect the brain and the body’s ability to properly convert vitamins and minerals, damage other pathways like amino acid conversions, bring on insulin resistant diabetes, damage the thyroid and/or adrenal gland, and much more.
After making the point that when we don’t have enough carnitine synthesis (which can be damaged by phthalate toxicity), we can “take the right fatty acids but they do no good because they cannot get carried into the mitochondria to create energy”.
She further recommends that we choose our health care practitioners wisely – ensure that they understand and are schooled in the biochemistry of phthalate toxicity and know how to guide us to focus on the most important damages, or perhaps to first detox.
Dr. Rogers notes that U.S. government studies consistently show that phthalates are in all of us even animals in the “pristine wild”. Further that they are the “highest pollutant in the human body, over 10,000 times higher than anything else”.
Her phthalate toxicity protocol includes a recommendation for “the more sauna, the better”, calling 5 hours (or more) a week a “healthful boost”. As Dr. Rogers notes, time in the sauna is “never lost” because we can use time in the sauna to read, do computer work, watch videos or TV, listen to music, or even do homework!.
In the case of the overwhelmed parent with concerns about the overweight child with allergies and a possible malfunctioning thyroid, Dr. Rogers suggested that the child do at least an hour of homework a day in the Far Infrared Sauna. The High Tech Health Far Infrared Sauna has sufficient light and space to make that a very feasible solution!
Dr. Rogers cautions to be mindful and to replace essential nutrients that may be sweated out during sauna time.
Other than that, High Tech Health Far Infrared Sauna is safe and can be used by the entire family as part of a regular healthful detox program.

An article from an online Readers’ Digest email (dtd 12 April 2012) entitled “7 Ways to Beat Headaches While Dieting”, noted that loosing weight can cause headache pains.
The article quoted the National Headache Foundation as noting that “diet-related issues” play a role in 30% of all migraines (in addition to less severe types of headaches).
Causes were noted as ranging from low blood sugar to caffeine withdrawal.
We at Next Wave would like to note that you don’t HAVE to suffer negative side affects from dieting.
Get the natural help you need to PREVENT these painful headaches.
It’s a little NATURAL assistance to help you “stick to” your diet…
…To naturally reduce the physical and emotional effects of cravings…
…To virtually PREVENT those withdrawal symptoms from foods, sugars, and more!
The Crave Ease Bio Apps patch provides 8 essential bio-frequencies that support the body and mind to reduce cravings.
We agree with Readers’ Digest in their “7 Ways to Beat Headaches While Dieting”, and would like to note that, even when you have the best of intentions and do things “right”, sometimes “stuff happens”…
So if that bad “stuff” includes a headache due to your dieting… use a Crave Ease Patch to get ahead of that curve.
You have better things to do with your time than be miserable from a headache that may erode your willpower to stay the course!
Here then, is the “Readers’ Digest version” (no pun intended) of the Readers’ Digest “7” causes of headaches while dieting:
1. Hunger
Caloric restriction can cause “hunger” headaches. It’s a good idea to eat approximately every four hours.
Remember to choose healthy foods and know that your Bio Apps Crave Ease Patch is working naturally to ease cravings for the really “bad stuff”.
2. Thirst
Dehydration is a common headache trigger. It may be related to getting insufficient electrolytes or narrowing blood vessels which reduces the brain’s supply of blood and oxygen.
Also, recall that drinking optimal amounts of “good” water actually HELPS you loose weight.
And remember that by the time you’re thirsty, your body is already a bit dehydrated, so drink deeply and often – BEFORE you’re thirsty!
Remember to choose healthy drinks like clean healthy water and know that your Bio Apps Crave Ease Patch is working naturally to ease cravings for those “bad sugary caffeinated drinks”.
3. Artificial Sweeteners
According to a study at the University of Washington, Seattle, many people have sensitivities to artificial sweeteners which can manifest as headaches.
Artificial sweeteners are found in both foods AND beverages.
Remember to choose healthy natural sweeteners like fruits, honey, etc and know that your Bio Apps Crave Ease Patch is working naturally to ease cravings for those “bad sugars”.
4. Caffeine
According to CNN Health, about half the people who cut back on sodas, coffee, or other foods and beverages with caffeine, experience headaches and other unpleasant withdrawal symptoms.
Readers’ Digest suggests gradually decreasing caffeine consumption and watching out for those “sugary caffeine drinks”.
Remember to choose healthy non-caffeinated drinks like clean healthy water and know that your Bio Apps Crave Ease Patch is working naturally to ease cravings for those “bad sugary caffeinated drinks”.
5. Stress
Readers’ Digest notes that stress can trigger binges and make it hard to stick to a diet. In addition, your body under stress may release chemicals like cortisol and adrenalin which can make blood vessels in your brain contract, which can result in headaches.
Remember to choose healthy ways to dump that stress, like walking and relaxation techniques, and know that your Bio Apps Crave Ease Patch is working naturally to reduce stress and anxiety associated with withdrawal symptoms.
If you’re truly under a great deal of other life-causing stress, check out the Stress Ease Patch. It’ll give you that natural calm that’ll last all day long.
(Yes you can use multiple patches at the same time. Why not? There are no drugs or chemicals involved! So get yourself all the natural help you need to ensure the success of your dieting efforts!)
6. Wait Too Long To Eat
Spacing meals too far apart or at irregular intervals can cause a drop in blood sugar levels which triggers your body to release hormones and brain chemicals, similar to a stress response, which can bring on headaches.
Soon after eating, your headache (along with other related symptoms like weakness, shakiness, and low energy) should dissipate if this is the cause.
Remember to eat “healthy foods” regularly (approximately every 4 hours) and know that your Bio Apps Crave Ease Patch is working naturally to ease cravings for those “bad foods”.
7. Pushed Too Hard
If you’re new to working out or if you pushed yourself harder than usual, you may experience an “exercise headache”. They can occur before or after working out. Although the exact cause is unknown, according to the Mayo Clinic, these headaches may occur because of blood vessel changes in the brain.
Remember to always warm up prior to a work out, and know that your Bio Apps Crave Ease Patch is working naturally to help you choose healthier lifestyles.
They’re so darned easy — and no one has to even know you have one on!

Are you one of the 116 million U.S. adults experiencing long-lasting pain? Is it the kind that lingers for weeks to months?
Do you feel stigma rather than relief from a health care system often poorly prepared to treat you?
An article in the Orange County Register (dtd 30 June 2011) reported that all kinds of ailments can trigger lingering pain, from arthritis to cancer, spine problems to digestive disorders, even “as-yet-undiagnosed conditions.”
The article further noted that chronic pain costs the nation more than heart disease in medical bills, sick days, and lost productivity”.
The tab?
“Anywhere from $560 billion to $635 billion a year.
That’s an extraordinary amount of wasted time, money, and productivity — and that’s not even mentioning the PERSONAL EFFECT it has on you and your world when you hurt and can’t find relief.

Are you one of the more than 50 million U.S. adults diagnosed with arthritis? Or perhaps other chronically painful conditions?
Do you periodically use pain medications for acute conditions?
Are you addicted to painkillers?
An article in the Orange County Register (dtd 6 April 2012) reported that sales of painkillers have “exploded” in parts of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) figures show dramatic rises between 2000 and 2010 in the distribution of oxycodone (key ingredient in OxyContin, Percocet, and Percodan). The article also reported rising numbers for hydrocodone (key ingredient in Vicodin, Norco, and Lortab).
The Register reports that this increase coincides with a wave of overdose deaths, pharmacy robberies, and “other problems”, noting that Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that opioide pain relievers (includes oxycodone and hydrocodone) caused 14,800 overdose deaths in 2008 and noted that the death toll is rising.
The article quotes that pharmacies received and dispensed the equivalent of 69 TONS of pure hydrocodone in 2010 – enough to give 40 5-mg Percocets and 24 5-mg Vicodins to EVERY PERSON IN THE U.S.!
The article conjectures that increases are partly due to an aging US population with pain issues. It further quoted Gregory Bunt, medical director at New York’s Daytop Village chain of drug treatment clinics a “greater willingness by doctors to treat pain”. He also noted that sales are also driven by addiction, “as users become physically dependent on painkillers and begin “doctor shopping” to keep the prescriptions coming.
