What’s in Your Mouth?
Most chronic diseases including autoimmune diseases are rooted in inflammation, so I’m always looking for the sources of that inflammation when I treat my patients. I’ve found that inflammation is often caused by five major environmental factors: our diets, a leaky gut, stress, toxins, and infections.
I was inspired to write my upcoming book The Autoimmune Solution to help others get to the root of their own health problems by examining and eliminating each of these risk factors.Changing the diet and healing the gut are big first steps, but the gut isn’t the only place where persistent infections and toxins such as heavy metals can easily enter the bloodstream. There’s another major point of potential exposure: the mouth.
We tend to see human anatomy in terms of separate systems, with dental health as somehow distinct from the rest of the body. The truth is, there is no wall separating your mouth from the rest of you–infections and toxins in the mouth affect your health as a whole! So, what’s in your mouth?…
John Hopkins Scientist Reveals Shocking Report On Flu Vaccines#Flu#Family#Android
A Johns Hopkins scientist has issued a blistering report on influenza vaccines in the British Medical Journal (BMJ). Peter Doshi, Ph.D., charges that although the vaccines are being pushed on the public in unprecedented numbers, they are less effective and cause more side effects than alleged by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Further, says Doshi, the studies that underlie the CDC’s policy of encouraging most people to get a yearly flu shot are often low quality studies that do not substantiate the official claims.
Promoting influenza vaccines is one of the most visible and aggressive public health policies in the United States, says Doshi of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Drug companies and public officials press for widespread vaccination each fall, offering vaccinations in drugstores and supermarkets. The results have been phenomenal. Only 20 years ago, 32 million doses of influenza vaccine were available in the United States on an annual basis. Today, the total has skyrocketed to 135 million doses.
“The vaccine may be less beneficial and less safe than has been claimed, and the threat of influenza seems to be overstated,” Doshi says…
I have been considering boycotting stores, as much as possible, that “wallpaper” their storefronts, and such with flu shot propaganda. Do they realize how they are hurting their customers or is it all about the mighty dollar?
Italy will investigate 11 Deaths linked to flu vaccine#Flu#Family#mtvstars
THE number of people who have died in Italy after being administered a flu vaccine made by Swiss pharmaceutical company Novartis has risen to 13.
The Italian Medical Agency (AIFA) has warned against panic and stressed there is not proof yet that it was the vaccine that led to the deaths.
It said it banned two batches of the product — called FLUAD — as a precautionary measure, pending further studies…

6 Reasons I Won’t Give My Kids The Nasal Flu Vaccine#Flu#Family#Vaccines
Written By: Celeste McGovern
Two of my daughters arrived home from primary school last week with public health packages in their bags. It’s that time of year again, when nurses are out in force like army recruitment officers, waging a war on deadly germs and rounding up volunteers for vaccines.
This year in the United Kingdom the intranasal flu vaccine is being rolled out. It’s already been used in the United States where 14 to 15 million doses of AstraZeneca’s FluMist are currently in distribution for this flu season but this is the first year it is being offered under the brand name Fluenza Tetra in the UK to all children older than 24 months and it is heavily promoted by public health officials. They’ve even produced a “Flu Hero” cartoon directed at children in which a superhero gives a little boy a nasal flu vaccine which, like a bite from a radioactive spider, transforms him into a superhero himself with super defenses.
I hate the flu as much as other parents, but the public health information struck me as superficial and smacked of a sales pitch, so I decided to look a little deeper into the vaccine and here are the top half dozen reasons my children won’t be going near it…
Why your doctor can’t help you#iBelieve#ASD#repost
Some good insight, that puts things in perspective from one of our, Featured Doctors.
You notice you’re feeling worse and worse. You suffer from chronic fatigue, pain, digestion issues, depression, anxiety, insomnia …. the list goes on. Yet when you go to your doctor, you’re told your lab tests are fine, it’s just age, or perhaps you need an antidepressant. If you press for more tests or keep returning with complaints, you’re labeled a problem patient or told it’s all in your head.
Unfortunately, this happens to untold numbers of people each year. When you can barely muster the energy to get through life’s daily tasks and you have long since abandoned your hobbies, sports, or time with friends, hitting a brick wall at the doctor’s office can fill you with despair.
It isn’t that your doctor is an uncaring person, he or she simply works in a paradigm that is woefully outdated when it comes to the exploding incidences of chronic and inflammatory conditions today. There are instances when conventional medicine is like a miracle, but for the one in five people suffering from autoimmune disease (a disease in which the immune system attacks and destroys tissue in the body or brain), and countless others suffering from undiagnosed autoimmunity, chronic inflammation, severe pain, environmentally induced illnesses, food sensitivities, chronic viral, bacterial, or parasitic infections, brain chemistry imbalances, hormonal imbalances, hair loss, unexplained weight gain, and more — being told your lab tests are fine and you simply need an antidepressant can feel like a kick in the groin.
Medical schools don’t teach nutrition
Medical doctors receive very little nutritional training despite an ever growing body of evidence linking diet with the explosion of chronic diseases today. We know, for instance, that the high blood sugar that comes from eating standard American fare can ultimately lead to diabetes, Alzheimer’s, or heart disease.
The standard approach to autoimmune disease, the occurrence rate of which far surpasses that of cancer and heart disease combined, is to wait until its advanced enough to either surgically remove the affected tissue or administer severe immune-suppressing drugs.
Gluten intolerance is still overlooked by many doctors. Standard testing for gluten sensitivity and celiac disease is limited and outdated, missing countless positive diagnoses. This despite the growing body of evidence that links gluten with autoimmune and neurological conditions. Other dietary proteins can also provoke severe immune reactions, something many doctors are not aware of unless it’s a classical food allergy (which is a different beast than a food sensitivity).
Doctors are constrained by their medical education, which has yet to catch up with modern illnesses. Liability insurance, health insurance, peer pressure, lack of time, and other factors often keep them from investing in the education required to help the millions of people suffering from “mystery” symptoms which, when you look at the science, are not always that mysterious.
Functional medicine for chronic symptoms and illness
Fortunately, functional medicine specializes in using nutritional, botanical, and nutraceutical approaches to manage chronic, inflammatory, and autoimmune conditions. We keep up with the latest science and the latest lab testing, which is integral to unraveling chronic symptoms and conditions. If you’ve hit a dead end with your medical provider, ask our office how functional medicine can help you regain your energy, vitality, and well-being.

Dr. Kory Branham – Featured Doctor#Vaccines#ASD#Health
I have been pleased to find Dr. Kory Branham. Upon moving to the Salt Lake City, Utah area, I wanted to find a physician that matches the type of healing I find most beneficial for my family and I. He has aided many individuals, and families, and I am fortunate to benefit from his tried and tested techniques. Dr. Branham’s practice has much to offer, whether you are interested in strengthening your immune system or healing from vaccine damages.
Thank you, Dr. Branham for all the good that you do.
I approach immune challenges from a whole body standpoint. I use Applied Kinesiology (manual muscle testing), to tune into each individual body, to determine the organs that are the weakest and identify the factors contributing to the weakness ranging from infections to heavy metals and chemical toxicities, to food allergies, to emotional challenges, to inherited weaknesses.
I use remedies ranging from herbs, flower remedies, vitamins and minerals to structural, spinal and cranial adjusting to emotional release techniques to homeopathic acute and constitutional remedies. Often times the immune system which is a complex of the thymus gland, the spleen, and the lymphatic system is damaged or inhibited by food allergens, or low-grade persistent infections ranging from yeast to viruses, to parasites.
Other organs being depleted will also impact the immune system including low or high adrenal or low thyroid function. It is well known that chronic depression, anxiety or bitterness can suppress the immune system and lead to illness. This is true “Holistic healing,” assessing all factors and then identifying which ones are the priority to address for each individual person.
Some of the most common immune support supplements are zinc, selenium, vitamin C, B vitamins, Reishi and astragalus mushrooms, antibiotic herbs like oregano, and goldenseal and thymus and spleen glandular extracts.
Which, in regard to vaccinations, I use homeopathic test vials for the different vaccines to assess if the body is stressed by them, and specifically which glands or tissues are stressed, then I identify the appropriate remedy or treatments to heal that stressed tissue.
On average about 1/3 of all weaknesses are identified as having emotional components. A big part of what I do is to bring awareness to these issues and help the patient release this energy.
Another hidden factor creating a lot of immune stress is hidden food allergies or sensitivities which can be assessed using Applied Kinesiology.

BIO
Dr. Kory Branham
Dr. Branham was born in St. George, Utah in 1955.
At six months of age, his family moved to northern Wisconsin where he grew up and attended high school.
His exposure to natural healing methods began early as his mother opened a health foods store in their home in Wisconsin in the 1960’s. Also from a young age he was exposed to Chiropractic adjustments by his father who had attended McCoy Chiropractic Institute in Seattle, Washington, but was drafted into the Army during the Korean War before finishing school.
At age 19, Dr. Branham served a mission for the LDS church in both Toronto, Canada and Sao Paulo, Brazil. On his return, he attended undergraduate school at BYU and then did his Chiropractic studies at the National College of Chiropractic in Lombard, Illinois. He graduated Magna Cum Laude in 1980 and began his career first in Texas then in Detroit, Michigan where he spent three years working for Dr. George Goodheart.
Dr. Goodheart was the founder of Applied Kinesiology, which is a diagnostic technique using manual muscle testing to evaluate the body. Through “AK”, a practitioner can quickly evaluate and integrate many different kinds of natural therapy and apply it to the patient very specifically. Dr. Branham became certified as a Diplomat of the International College of Applied Kinesiology and has become a master of this technique.
In addition to this technique Dr. Branham has studied and integrated many other healing modalities into his practice including craniosacral therapy, trigger-point release techniques, Neuro-Emotional Technique(“NET”), diversified adjusting, and functional medicine which utilizes functional hair, blood, and stool analysis to diagnose the patient.
Dr. Branham moved to Utah and began practice here in 1986. Initially attracted to the mountains and snow for the climbing and skiing he met his wife Julie here and has made it his home. He currently resides in Alpine, Utah where he and his wife are raising four children and running a Yoga studio.
In addition to his busy practice and family life, Dr. Branham enjoys a variety of outdoor activities including skiing, snowboarding, road and mountain biking, running barefoot, sailplane and airplane flying and windsurfing.
He is continually learning and experiencing new things and his philosophy in life and for his patients is to improve and maximize the quality of life for all so we can each have the most enjoyment and fulfillment of our time here on earth.
