Keratosis Pilaris Also Known As Chicken Skin
Two Cases of Keratosis Pilaris
Estella in Texas has had keratosis pilaris for 20 years. A month ago she started seeing white spots on her skin and now she itches all over her body. Her son, who is 11, also has keratosis pilaris. This disease affects 40% of the world’s population. It is a skin condition in which rough patches and acne-like bumps appear on the upper arms, thighs, cheeks and buttocks. It tends to be worse in the winter when the humidity is low and the skin is drier. Keratosis pilaris results from a buildup of keratin. Keratin is a hard protein that protects your skin from infection and harmful substances. The keratin forms a plug that blocks the opening of the hair follicle. Usually many plugs form, causing patches of bumpy, rough skin. Estella is also starting to lose her hair and is, at 5’4” and 198 pounds, seriously overweight.

Obesity is Whose Fault?
Dr. Glidden underlines the fact that Estella has been under the care of conventional medical doctors for 20 years. She has a condition they haven’t been able to cure, and it’s just getting worse. Her son is in the same boat. Estella is overweight, not because she has a bad gene, is lazy or depressed. She is overweight because her body is nutritionally starved. Her body knows it’s nutritionally starved and makes her keep eating food in the desperate attempt to fill its nutritional tanks. But the food she eats doesn’t have the nutrients she needs, so she keeps eating and gaining weight. Dr. Glidden tells her “It’s not your fault, it’s your doctor’s fault.”

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension - Dr. Glidden Answers A Question From a Caller
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Susan in Jacksonville, Florida, is calling in for her mother, 84, who has Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, which is high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs. She collapsed a couple of times last year and ended up in the hospital, just five minutes from her home. The doctors did a right heart catheterization and her wedge pressure was 100. Later she had an echocardiogram resulting in 88. Susan tells Dr. Glidden that her mother is taking Adcirca, which relaxes muscles and increases blood flow to particular areas of the body. Some possible side effects of Adcirca are chest pain, seizures and fainting. She is also on Orenitram which can improve exercise ability. Its possible side effects are headache, diarrhea, nausea and flushing.
M.D. Greed
Susan’s mother has undergone heart tests that Dr. Glidden blames on the doctors’ desire to benefit monetarily from her mother’s condition. Tests and drugs. Drugs and tests. He isn’t joking when he says the largest percentage of medical doctors per capita in the United States is below the Mason Dixon Line because MDs are like buzzards and they congregate to where people are dying. Most people spend the majority of their health care dollars in the last 5 years of their lives. They are now on drugs to take care of the side effects of all the drugs that have been prescribed to them over the years. They have had several surgeries, and they’re getting sicker and sicker and sicker.
Avoid the Ten Bad Foods Or Else
Dr. Glidden asks Susan if she has the list of the Ten Bad Food. Yes, she answers, but her mother doesn’t want to consider foregoing those foods. Then we really can’t help her, replies Dr. Glidden. He tells Susan to get a brochure from the local funeral home and give it to her mother. Finally Dr. Glidden recommends the Youngevity supplements to support the body of a person with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension.
Dr. Glidden recommends:
1 – Youngevity Healthy Brain & Heart Pak 2.0 per 100lbs of body weight per month
1 – Youngevity Ultimate Selenium per 50lbs of body weight per month limit 4 bottles
1- Good Herbs Circulatory Support

Type 2 Diabetes And How To Reverse It Naturally
Dr. Glidden Answers a Type 2 Diabetes Question
Blood Sugar Mike
Mike in Texas has Type 2 Diabetes and is calling in to tell Dr. Glidden with great pride that he is now off Metformin, Lisinopril, and has cut his dosage ofLantus from 14 to 8 units. He’s 63 years old and has been a diabetic for 17 years. Mike is now taking the Youngevity Healthy Blood Sugar Pak. Dr. Glidden tells him to add Plant Derived Minerals to his protocol and to be careful that he takes the minerals between meals if the meals contain phytates like grains, beans, nuts or potatoes. Phytates bind with iron, calcium and zinc, so the minerals can’t be properly absorbed. He tells Mike to watch his webinar Maximize the Absorption of Your Supplements. Become an Insider and you too can benefit from Dr. Glidden’s health webinars.
Sugar is Added for a Reason
As of 2010, Diabetes has become the 7th leading cause of death in the United States. The soil in which our food grows is depleted of minerals, thus affecting the taste of the food. What do the food companies do to make the food taste good? They add sugar! Dr. Glidden’s webinar Advanced Blood Sugar explains how insulin in the body breaks down sugar and what happens to the blood cells when they become nutrient deficient– they are no longer able to metabolize sugar properly. By the end of the webinar you will have a better understanding of Type 2 Diabetes and what you can do to lower your blood sugar by taking a look at the root cause of these ailments: nutritional deficiencies
Are You Taking Metformin?
When you go to your MD to be “treated” for Diabetes, they will prescribe Metformin—the drug that Mike no longer takes. Dr. Glidden talks about what Metformin does to the production of sugar in the liver and the cycle of sugar through the intestines. If you have diabetes, take this very seriously.
VIDEO INTERVIEW: Dr. Burzynski’s Cancer Treatment
Unique Method of Cancer Treatment
Every Patient’s Cancer Is Different
Dr. Glidden’s guest is Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski of the Burzynski Clinic in Houston, Texas. Dr. Burzynski describes the research involved in his unique method of cancer treatment. The number of “sick” genes, i.e. mutated genes, is different in different malignancies. In the most aggressive cancers there can be as many as 600 abnormal genes involved. Every patient’s cancer is different. Cancer needs to be based on the patient’s genome signature, not on today’s diagnostic method which was introduced in the 1840’s. Dr. Burzynski’s method is called personalized targeted medicine, or precision medicine. This is the future of cancer treatment and the treatment of other diseases. Dr. Glidden asks what causes the gene to become mutated in the first place. There is a multitude of causes, including environmental factors, what we eat, and our lifestyles. There are thousands and thousands of containments. Dr. Burzynski proceeds to describe the system he discovered, the system of antineoplastons that work as molecular switches which turn on the genes that eradicate cancer.
Great Deal Of Resistance
Dr. Glidden wants to know whether he has met resistance from oncologists and doctors who practice conventional medicine. Dr. Burzynski replies that patients who come to his clinic have often been to the best cancer treatment centers in the world without positive results. His new approach to treatment is the last possibility for a cure, and therefore there shouldn’t be any resistance. But there has been a great deal of resistance. The problems with the FDA have been resolved, but the Texas Medical Board would like to eliminate his practice altogether, despite the fact that they have evidence of great success. Dr. Burzynski proved that, by using this new approach in advanced cases of cancer, the survival rate was twice as successful as that of any other treatment available. He compares the Texas Medical Board to a communist country that tries to destroy the good in a neighboring country that has a better system than they do, because the comparison is damaging.
New Ideas
America is a country of immigrants who are willing to challenge and to be introduced to new ideas. We have a surplus of bright people but they are not willing to stand up for what they believe. If they do they’re immediately attacked by others. One in twenty oncologists would like to work with Dr. Burzynski and about 150 do, but they don’t want to do it openly. Only some of them are willing to stand up and be counted, but they are immediately attacked by other doctors in the community, so many remain silent for fear of retribution, even though the responses in his patients are the best that they have ever seen. We have a totalitarian system of medicine that dictates what doctors should do. The doctors give patients medications which are determined by the central government. Basically the doctors work under the lawyers and bureaucrats of governmental agencies and will be eliminated if they decide to act in opposition to the rules. The art of practicing medicine has been destroyed by totalitarian medicine, in which every patient is treated in the same way. Dr. Burzynski hopes that the change in America will come in his lifetime, as thousands of people are dying needlessly because of the current system.
Cholesterol In Your Diet To Avoid Heart Disease? The French Have it Down
Cholesterol: The French Connection
Cholesterol In Your Diet To Avoid Heart Disease?
The French Have it Down
Dr. Glidden chooses July 14, Bastille Day signifying France’s Declaration of Independence, to discuss the French Paradox. This catchphrase was first used in the late 1980’s to describe the fact that the French have a relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease, and yet they consume a diet rich in saturated fats. Before the American Heart Association started telling us to stop eating animal fat and start using vegetable oils and Crisco, the incidence of coronary heart disease in the United States was relatively low. After Americans started using vegetable oils and Crisco heart disease went through the roof.
Enter the American Heart Association
In 1948 Proctor & Gamble, makers of Crisco, made the American Heart Association the beneficiary of the popular Walking Man Radio Contest, raising $1.7 million for the American Heart Association, transforming it from a small underfunded professional society into the powerhouse that it is today. And what did the American Heart Association have to do in return? They had to tell everyone in the United States to stop eating butter, stop drinking full fat milk, stop eating animal fats and start eating vegetable oils and Crisco. Thus was born the heart disease epidemic. During this time the French were still consuming fats, paying no attention to the U.S. diet hype, and their incidence of heart disease remained low. France is the 9th healthiest nation in the world, the United States is the 53rd.
Exit The Mediterranean Diet
Dr. Ancel Keys, 1904 – 2004, became famous in the 1940s for promoting the Mediterranean Diet, a diet low in fat which supposedly contributed to heart health. Dr. Glidden explains how Dr. Keys conducted this seriously flawed study and why his findings were fully accepted and won him a spot on the cover of Time Magazine. Everyone bought Dr. Keys’ “discoveries” and yet the Annals of American Medicine published a study in March of 2014 stating that saturated fat does not cause heart disease. Has your doctor shared that with you?
Is Your Gallbladder Galling You?
Gallstones affect approximately one in ten Americans, and are associated with approximately 3,000 deaths annually.
More than 800,000 hospitalizations each year are caused by gallstones that are large enough to cause significant pain.
Over 500,000 people undergo surgery for gallstones annually.
Avoid becoming another galling statistic. Watch the videos below…

Linda in Ontario has a friend with gall bladder problems who has been on a Youngevity program for a month.
She’s had an operation, but the gall bladder was not removed. Recently she had another severe attack and the doctors want to remove her gall bladder soon.
Dr. Glidden describes the gall bladder’s purpose and tells Linda that her friend should try the homeopathic medicine chelidonium majus as well as adjust her protocol.
Dr. Glidden Answers A Question About A Gallbladder / Liver Cleans:
Question from a Dr. Glidden INSIDER during one of the INSIDER members weekly Q&A health webinars: “Hey doc, for some time I had been having a very small bowel movement a day and I did a liver/gallbladder cleanse 3 weeks ago (10/19) with apple juice & lemon juice/olive oil, the program Joanne Conaway recommends.
For the last 3 weeks every day with the exception of 3 days I have had several dozens of gall stones along with completely liquid diarrhea 4-6x a day. The stone passage & diarrhea has slowed down a little in the last several days but I was starting to be constipated.
Yesterday I had 16 oz of apple juice. Had dozens of more stones within a few hours & certainly felt better. What concerns me is that even taking on 16 oz slowly made me need 4 extra insulin shots on top of the 4 I normally do.
Since I don’t respond well to insulin I am deeply concerned about taking more for fear of triggering resistance & even more negative responses. Prior to the cleanse I had used herbal rainforest, more PDM, Cal Toddy, flax with no effect at all on constipation.
So far apple juice seems to be the only thing that allows me to have bowel movements several times a day. Is there anything else I can take instead of apple juice?”

Irritable Bowel Syndrome, IBS
You have Irritable Bowel Syndrome, IBS,
and your doctor hasn’t helped you get rid of those symptoms?
Dr. Glidden received a message from Seth whose 23 year-old son had been diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, IBS, when he was 12.
His son has had chronic diarrhea his entire life. Later he was told he had giardia and multiple sclerosis. Now he has fainting spells.
Dr. Glidden calls this a Testimony of Trouble and assures his audience that even though the doctors couldn’t help this young man over all those years, there is hope for him now.
Number One on the list is that he must eliminate the Ten Bad Foods. This list is available for free at 10 Bad Foods Blog Post List.
Chronic gastrointestinal problems are caused by consistent consumption of all the wrong foods, and Seth’s son is to stop eating them immediately.
His diet needs to be high in cholesterol. That’s right, high in cholesterol–eggs, butter, full fat milk, full fat yogurt.
Try this for 90 days and see how you feel.

Do the Sun’s Rays Cause Skin Cancer?
The Skin You’re In
Summer means you’ll be out in the sun, exposed to its cancer-causing rays, right? Wrong! You’ll be out playing, hiking, swimming, or just lying on the beach in the sun. You will probably burn unless you use sunscreen. Applying sunscreen is a good idea because a sunburn can hurt. But, as Dr. Glidden knows, exposure to the sun’s rays does not cause cancer. This myth came about because of the monopolization of the medical marketplace by the MDs and the pharmaceutical industry. The information that we get in the public domain about health and disease is one-sided, biased, and, yes, often wrong. You’ve probably also heard that the higher the SPF number on the sunscreen label, the better. That too is incorrect. SPF 15 is all you need. Any number higher than SPF 15 is no more effective. It is simply more expensive.

Read All About It
Dr. Glidden refers to a scientific article in The Lancet, a UK medical journal, reporting that indoor workers get more skin cancer than outdoor workers. Here’s where you’ll learn the difference between ultraviolet A and ultraviolet B radiation. There’s also a PubMed article about vitamins, minerals and fatty acids decreasing cancer rates. The British Journal of Dermatology published an article stating that increased skin cancer rates are due to diagnostic mistakes.
Take Care of Yourself!
The reason that people are getting sicker and sicker all around the world is that we do not have a free medical market. Access to the correct information is not readily available. Dr. Glidden has found that Youngevity delivers the best nutritional supplements in his experience. Are you concerned about your own health?
