Q&A with Dr. Garry Gordon
“Dr. Gordon: Hello, my father was told to have a triple bypass two years ago and he elected to do chelation therapy. Two weeks ago he had a major heart attack and has severe congestive heart failure. My father firmly believes in your methods and refuses to have bypass. I `want to know more about the help for congestive heart failure. Could you please point me in the right direction as to books, etc? Any information I can read about this disease and how it can help my father would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help.”
I am sorry to hear of your father’s heart attack. I am trying to get every chelation doctor that is using my old protocol to come to conferences and/or purchase tapes that I have made that teach the newer programs where we deal with the inflammation and blood clotting problems we can prove are behind over 90 percent of all heart attacks and strokes. Thus, these are all preventable with things like the Essential Daily Defense and Nattokinase and Beyond Chelation products, which I have formulated and/or recommend for daily consumption so there can be no more heart attacks.
I have a home program that anyone can use either with or without the 3 hour IV chelation treatments. Combine this with oxidative therapies, intravenously, augmented at home with regular use of Cellfood, taken as 8-12 drops in 6 ounces of good water, such as Penta water, three times or more daily.
I have ne/ver seen a heart attack in patients who are on the recommended levels of the naturally blood thinning substances included in my Beyond Chelation (never less than twice a day) and Essential Daily Defense (at least 2 with every meal) products in years. It is critical, however, to always take these without fail, as there is little benefit after 12 hours of being off of these natural products, which are not drugs and, therefore, are not long-acting.
This oral supplement program helps to prevent the clots that bring on the heart attacks and helps the health of the blood vessels throughout the entire body by providing daily safe, gentle, chelation/detoxification benefits. N/o/w, we also offer our powerful enzyme products such as Endozym with Nattokinase or Nattokinase by itself, to further increase this ability to prevent fatal blood clots and even help reverse some of the problems caused by these blood clots after the heart attack or stroke.
I train doctors worldwide in this new, advanced use of oral chelation and can assure you that, yes, even congestive heart failure can still be helped.
Sincerely, Garry F. Gordon, MD,DO,MD(H)

Self-Care Tips for Preventing and Managing Cellulite
Cellulite is really not a health condition, but a lay term for unsightly looking dimples in various parts of the body, especially the thighs, knees, buttocks, stomach, and arms.
Symptoms: Loose, dimpled skin.
Occurrence: More frequently in women.
Special Notes: In general, cellulite is considered to be due to an increased ratio of fat cells to lean body mass. Based on this assumption, reducing body fat content and building up muscle mass is imperative. Spot reducing, aimed at fat reduction at specific body sites, is extremely difficult. Most experts say that it is not possible.
Cellulite is formed by fibroid masses of protein that have accumulated in the spaces between the cells due to faulty elimination through the lymph system. Some alternative practitioners have had success in the elimination of this condition using lymphatic therapy. Since gravity is the primary force that creates cellulite, the following exercise is beneficial: First, gently jump on a mini-trampoline or rebounder (if available) to create pumping action in the lymph system. Then, using gravity to drain the lymph system, place your legs up against a wall or over a chair and massage, very lightly, the crease formed by the legs and the abdomen in order to open the deep inguinal lymph nodes, which is where all of the accumulation that forms the cellulite must pass to be eliminated from the body.
Self-Care Approaches
Diet: Whole foods diet with less complex carbohydrates and sugars than is usually recommended for the average person. Large amounts of filtered water. Decrease fats to below 20% of the total diet and avoid as much as possible animal fats and processed fats. Also, do not eat protein at night as unused protein in the body puts a greater load on the lymph system.
Herbs: Combine equal parts of horse chestnut bark and gotu kola tinctures and take 1/2 teaspoon three times a day. Topically apply a compress made with white birch oil, morning and evening, or apply an ointment or lotion made from horse chestnut twice a day.
Aromatherapy: Juniper, rosemary, lavender, lemon, or geranium.
Bodywork: Self-massage: massage affected area regularly.
Flower Essences:Crab Apple if negative body image. Add two drops to pure drinking water, four times a day. Continue until restoration of positive body image.
Professional Care
The following therapies should only be provided by a qualified health professional: Magnetic Therapy, Natural Hormone Replacement Therapy, Naturopathic Medicine, and Detoxification Therapy (may be indicated, depending on the condition of the person.)

The Human Energy Field – An Interview With Valerie Hunt, Ph.D. (Part 2)
[Dr. Valerie Hunt is one of the most brilliant healers and researchers I have ever met. 88 years yo/ung, Valerie is professor emeritus at UCLA, where she was the first scientist to satisfactorily prove the existence of the human energy field, more commonly referred to as the “human aura.” Since that time, Valerie has remained in the forefront in the field of energy medicine, and today her ongoing research is making clear how and why understanding of the human energy field is of paramount importance not only to optimal health, but to spiritual awareness and the very essence of our Being.
This is part two of an interview I conducted with Valerie that is featured in my book, Health on the Edge: Visionary Views of Healing in the New Millennium (see Unabashed Plug above). To learn more about Valerie, visit http://www.1healthyworld.com/advisoryBoard/ValerieHunt.cfm.]
Q: Based on what you're saying, a person's health index would be directly related to how well he or she adapts to whatever they are experiencing moment to moment.
A: Well, there are certain parameters. First, for optimal health to exist, the field has to be very broad-spectrum and adaptive. Some of the people we test have electromagnetic energy that is in the middle of the spectrum and is truncated there. They can't go very high, and they can't go very low. They seem to dribble through life and struggle. Then there are the people, such as those who practice certain types of meditation, whose frequencies are extremely high, so that if something happens in the world, they don't respond on the middle or lower branches. They respond on the upper branches. They have a certain kind of peace, yet they often die of hypotension (low blood pressure, cancer) diseases because they don't have enough vital energy. And then there are some people who are in the lower ranges, which means they don't have the high frequencies, but they have a heck of a lot of energy. They can do things that the rest of us can't physically do even if we push ourselves to exercise and build more strength. These are the people who have difficulty with hypertension, skin conditions, anything that is hyper or excessive in terms of imbalances. The ideal field is one that has the low frequencies, the middle frequencies, the higher frequencies, and no major break in between any of them, so that they can play the total range of the piano, as it were.
The next parameter is power. Power is a quantitative measurement. You may have the complete frequency range, but the only place you have power is in certain aspects of that range. That's where you operate from because that's where you've got power. If you have power in the lower ranges, you will be physically active, and have vital dynamic life. I'm 87 and nobody knows it. I have lower frequencies and this keeps cells and organs working and keeps me looking younger. If you have great frequency in the middle ranges, you can easily handle intellectual issues and can solve problems. If you have power in the upper ranges, you can go into higher states of consciousness, find wisdom, you have levels of thought which are conceptual. But the ideal is to have power within the entire spectrum of frequencies.
Then there is the question of coherency or stability, which has to do with whether the field comes back to a resting state when it's not being challenged. When the field starts to disintegrate or become anti-coherent, it means that things don't go together. You will have frequencies out of sync and the energy does not flow. In the lower parts of the body there are more of the lower energy frequencies, in the middle body there are more of the middle frequencies, and in the upper body there are more of the upper. But this is not the same as saying that each chakra has a particular energy. It does not. It has to do with the nature of the field, and as soon as the field becomes anti-coherent things don't flow. And the primary organizer of all of this is human emotion. It is the apex. When we shift human emotion, we can do amazing things with the electromagnetic field.
Q: You've developed instrumentation you call an "AuraMeter" to calibrate all of this. What methods existed prior to the AuraMeter, and what are their inherent limitations?
A: The first method, which has always been around, are people who can see the light aspect of these electromagnetic frequencies, or the human aura, as is depicted in early art work showing the halo around the body and the head of the angels, the Christ, the Buddha, and religious figures. People who access the higher level frequencies can see this. This has been one of the areas that initially validated my electromyography or my AuraMeter. I used eight aura readers, the best I could find in the world. They worked simultaneously to read one person's aura from different parts of the lab where they could not hear what anyone else was saying. I recorded their findings at the same time that I recorded the subject's energy field. I found complete correlation among them with the primary colors of the field's spectrum-red, yellow and blue-and I found very high correlation with the secondary colors. But I found no correlation with colors like puce, chartreuse, or turquoise because those colors are an interpretation of a blend of colors. If we kept the aura readers observing the area of color frequency and nature of the field, they sometimes saw the flow of the field and they saw blockages within it. Blockages are signs of anti-coherency. The problem with many aura readers is that they want to interpret what the blockages means, and many of them are very fuzzy thinkers; they do not have scientific minds capable of making an accurate diagnosis.
The second method of evaluation involves bio-frequency machines. There are a bunch of them out there, and they take a quantitative sample of the electromagnetic field. But they are only measuring one aspect of electromagnetic field-the power of the energy. They don't measure the frequency range itself, or the flow, coherency, and stability of the field.
Then there are the organ system energy devices. These test the energy of organ systems and some functional systems, which measure if an organ has too little or too much energy. But these devices don't tell us why. They are very good for finding out which organ is sick, but are incapable of telling you what the source of the sickness is, or how your field handles your relationships in the world.
Then there are the Kirlian devices which photograph the subject. Kirlian himself was supposed to have exposed the photographs through his own mind; he didn't have any film in the camera. What he was doing was recording the energy in his mind and then putting in on the tape. That's why it took so long for Kirlian photography to develop. I used to work in Kirlian photography using films. I did it for many years trying to see what was going on. But in order to work with it, you have to introduce an energy field to enhance the radiation of the electromagnetic field. This means you are measuring a secondary response, not the primary one. You're getting something that happened as a result of giving it a shock, by introducing energy. We also found out that there are many things that can change the result, such as the moisture on your fingers or your emotional state. And the measurement comes in the fo/rm of a picture so, even though you may get a change in color, for example, you have to interpret what it is. It's not raw data, in other words. Some of the new Kirlian devices are getting better because they are photographing much more of the electromagnetic field and then assigning numbers to it, but the numbers come secondarily. They are not in the data itself.
These are the major limitations to these types of methods, even though all of them do give some indication of the electromagnetic field. The AuraMeter does everything that they can do, but it is far more complex. My basic recording has been 200,000 cycles per second, and I n/o/w have an instrument that records to 750,000 cycles per second. That's a heck of a lot of data. And we put it through fractal analysis, which is the only kind that you should ever use on these data. Fractal geometry replaces the old Euclidian geometry which presupposes that the world is made up of triangles, circles, and straight lines, and any piece of information that does not fit into that pattern gets dumped. It gets thrown out. Yet life is not a bunch of straight lines and circles. Anything that is living has dynamic differences and changes, and fractal geometry provides me with a dynamic formula which allows me to look at emotion and change.
My data is handled not by correlations, but by patterns of interrelationships. I look at the pattern in the electromagnetic field using fractal analysis. I look at the patterns of health and biological disturbances. I will soon have software that will enable me to conduct very sophisticated and complex measurements of these patterns. Not the simple things like brainwave patterns, EEG, which only go up to 100 cycles per second, or cardiograms, which only go up 150 cycles per second. The electromagnetic field does not even begin until 400 to 500 cycles per second, which is beyond the range of the nervous system of the human body. I'm talking about atomic and sub-atomic patterns-the transactions between the electromagnetic field as it radiates out from the body and transacts with the electromagnetic field from outside of the body, which is radiating in.
Let me say a little bit about this. If you take a ball and drop it, it will fall because the gravitational pull reacts to its mass. That's a reaction. Then we have the next higher level, which is called an interaction. If you put oxygen with hydrogen, in ordinary circumstances, it creates water. This is a fo/rm of interaction. But, when it comes to field interaction you have what is called a transaction, which means the human being can change his field. There are three types of transactions. In the first type, the person can come in contact with an external field of reaction and not even react to that field. People sometimes refer to this as putting a barrier up. The person doesn't interact with the external field at all, or he may put up a total barrier so that nothing ever comes into his field, so there is no transaction. Or the opposite can occur-he can be overwhelmed by the external field, which is a one-way transaction. We're all familiar with the experience of being sapped by another person's energy, for example. The person who is said to be doing the sapping is, in a way, overpowering the other person, and the other person has to be overpowered. That is the transaction, and I have tested this.
Then there is the third type of transaction, in which both fields change and improve. That's the ideal situation, and I've tested this, as well, putting two people together and watching to see if there was a transaction. Sometimes the energy changed, going from one person into the other; one person changed while the other stayed the same. Sometimes there was total barrier. I had them close enough, yet nothing happened. There was a complete lack of transaction. And sometimes I put people together and their fields blended and became more elaborate, as each became stronger. This is the ideal transaction, and is what should happen in all human situations. There should be a beneficial transaction for both people.
What this means, in terms of healing, is that the healers have to start approximately where their patients' fields are to get them to transact. They can't force the energy. This is why some healings are effective, and some are not. It's because the healers are effective at working on some people, and are not effective with other people. This is one of the areas I'm researching. I'm checking techniques and checking the healee’s and the healer’s fields simultaneously, to see if, when the transaction takes place, both fields improve.
Q: You've just explained why not all therapies work for all people.
A: Yes, but we're going to see that certain therapies have to do primarily with the therapists, plus the energy, which is transmissive. We will be testing all of the techniques, and the kinds of fields, and how they respond, so that we will be able to not only diagnose and prescribe the technique that is needed, but also be able to determine which healer will be most effective with each person. And we will do this using the AuraMeter to record their field, and bring it out in fractal images.
We can also display the pattern of disease in fractal images so that even doctors who don't have a background in this area will be able to make a more effective diagnosis, including for conditions where the etiology is unknown. We will have the signature pattern of the major diseases. It is going to take me a while to do this, but eventually I will have the signatures for Alzheimer's, cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and so forth, all of the diseases that kill the most people or cause the most serious disturbances. We'll have those patterns and the signature of the person and eventually we'll be able to show that, if we change the person's signature or electromyographic pattern, we can expect a cure. The disease or dysfunction will go away. This is the future of medicine. When a patient comes in to see his doctor, the first thing that will be done is to record his individual signature. All diagnosis and treatment will start from there. We have to have the energy field of the person. We have to have the energy field of the disease or illness. We have to have the energy field of the energy which is being introduced, and then we have to have the energy field of the therapist, because the therapist is the part of the transaction.
I have recorded the signatures of healers who have healed pain. They have a particular frequency spectrum in their signature. They can walk in a room and merely by their presence they can stop pain. I have others that, if they come into the room, they're going to create the pain with their frequency. So, when we come into the ideal alternative medicine hospital every single person in that room who treats people is going to have to have his field checked.
Spiritual healing is another area I will be researching in more detail. It's been stated that if you pray over a person, they tend to get better. This is an oversimplification. It depends on who prays and from what level, or frequency, they pray. I've recorded people who pray and pray and pray, but they are praying from such a low level that nothing happens. They don't have the amplitude and the necessary frequency to bring in the spiritual healing energy, which is unconditional love. Unconditional love is coherency with great power. If you don't have coherency, you can talk about unconditional love, but you don't really know what it is.

Reader Feedback (The FDA and Nutritional Supplements)
Monica S. writes: “Dear Larry – ever since the recent FDA ban of ephedra, it seems the news is full of stories suggesting that nutritional supplements are potentially dangerous and need to be overseen by the FDA. What is your take on all of this. Thank you for your excellent newsletter, and please keep up the good work!”
My view of the recent barrage of news stories that Monica refers to is that there is a full-scale plan underway to not only limit our access to nutritional supplements, but to ultimately have their manufacture and sale controlled by the pharmaceutical industry. Which is precisely what will happen, I believe, should the FDA succeed in its attempts to repeal the DSHEA act of 1994. N/o/w that the FDA has succeeded in banning epehdra, they are eager to keep moving along these lines. As usual, the FDA’s knee-jerk accomplices in Congress, all of whom are beneficiaries of ongoing contributions by Big Pharma, are going out of their way to make alarming statements about the use of supplements. This is not coincidental. It’s an orchestrated campaign to discredit the supplement industry and gut the provisions of the DSHEA act, something the FDA and Big Pharma have been seeking to do ever since its passage ten years ago. But what is ne/ver once mentioned by these alarmists is the fact that DSHEA already gives the FDA all the authority it needs to take unsafe supplements off the market. (It was precisely due to DSHEA’s provision’s that the FDA was able to ban ephedra.)
In short, it is not the law that needs to be changed. Rather, it is the FDA that needs to put its house in order. Because there has not once been a death directly attributable to nutritional supplements when they are used according to instructions. (Of the 150 or so deaths the FDA claims were caused by ephedra, only 2 can be directly attributable to its use—the other cases all had an abundance of other mitigating factors—and in both cases the people who died did not heed the recommendations for its use.) Meanwhile, each year, pharmaceutical drugs blithely approved by the FDA kill hundreds of thousands of Americans when they are properly prescribed, and cause serious injury to mill/ions of other people. Where is the Congressional outcry about these irrefutable facts? Don’t hold your breath; they won’t be forthcoming anytime soon. But we may indeed see our access to nutritional supplements severely curtailed if we passively sit back and allow the current orchestrated campaign to do just that continue to proceed unchecked.
Health and Blessings!
