You have much more credentials than I have...but I do have over 50 years of treating myself and my family alternatively...and am usually pretty self-sufficient. My family have all been guinea pigs too...so I completely understand that comment.

Your information is very accurate and spot on...I concur with everything. However, concerning the Vitamin D...you really must take vitamin K with the D as that transfers the calcium into the bone where it belongs. I take 10,000IU of D3 along with a Super K from Life Extension and went from about 25ng/mL to 60ng/mL and the improvement in my health is amazing. I just encourage people to have their blood tested so they know where they are at and where they need to go.

I would also suggest that he get on probiotics permanently because gut health is really what determines how well he is digesting his food. Even digestive enzymes would help.

The NAC needs to be taken on an empty stomach either 1/2 an hour before you eat anything in the morning or 2 hours after you have eaten before bed.

I like Sam-e quite a lot...I have taken it mainly for depression...but I think they will find that adequately raising the Vitamin D level will have a big impact on arthritis.

Also, zinc needs to be coupled with quercetin so that the zinc can get inside the cell wall to prevent replication of the virus. A doctor explained that zinc is the bullet and quercetin is the gun. If a person has thyroid issues and can't take zinc...green tea works in the same way.

Everything else looks spot on and I agree to try to get off the drugs...statins are very bad for you. Anyway...thanks for all your good informations and how lucky you are to have a daughter with a degree in Holistic Medicine....God bless you and yours.
