		<description><![CDATA[HORMONE THERAPY &#8211; BE IT SYNTHETIC OR BIOIDENTICAL HORMONES, MALE OR FEMALE &#8211; NEEDS TO INCLUDE LIVER SUPPORT.  So far in my practice in Tucson as an integrative endocrinologist, I have yet to hear of a conventional practicing physician supporting liver detoxification pathways and promoting an anti-inflammatory environment. LIVER DETOXIFICATION SUPPORT is not a liver cleanse or a seen on TV protocol.  The liver is a primary filtration organ along with the kidneys and skin.  The liver detoxifies everything we ingest and absorb, including hormones.  When hormones are added to a person&#8217;s body through oral, topical, or sublingual dosing they… <a href="http://lpinternalmedicine.com/news/?p=280" rel="bookmark">more</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ALLERGIES ARE ALLERGIES, I tell patients.  No matter if you suffer from seasonal environmental allergies or IgE food allergies or IgG food sensitivities, the treatment approach when treating the underlying cause is the same: to reduce the immune reaction at the primary site.  &#160; I have said countless times, WE UNDERSTAND THE IMMUNE SYSTEM&#8217;S REACTION TO ALLERGENS YET CONVENTIONAL MEDICAL TREATMENT IS MISSING THE MARK ON TREATING THE UNDERLYING CAUSE &#38; FOCUSES ON SYMPTOM CONTROL &#38; SUPPRESSION. All allergies produce inflammation.  Inflammation is the underlying cause of heart disease, stroke, cancer, arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease.  Treating allergies from a… <a href="http://lpinternalmedicine.com/news/?p=278" rel="bookmark">more</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[DEPRESSED MOODS WITH OR WITHOUT IRRITABILITY are often diagnosed as a form of depression or dysthymia and medications such as Zoloft, Paxil, Celexa, Proazc, or the newer class of antidepressants such as Effexor, Cymbalta, and Pristiq. When someone experiences depressed moods, there may be several reasons with daily life stressors being a major contributor.  It is normal to feel down when life around you is not pleasant or when you are under stress and demands.  It is NOT healthy, however, to feel down a majority of the time.  Brain chemistry is complex and you need a doctor who understands it… <a href="http://lpinternalmedicine.com/news/?p=275" rel="bookmark">more</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[TV COMMERCIALS have recently boosted low testosterone as the cause of energy and libido decline in aging men.  As it may be low testosterone, there may be other underlying issues causing the decline in endurance.  Only a qualified physician can help you answer the questions you have. As an integrative internist, if a man were to complain of low energy, low libido, low endurance, or decreased ability to heal or recover, total and % free testosterone would be on the list of lab tests to order to diagnose the underlying cause of the problem.

		<description><![CDATA[Many patients reveal to me that they experience mood swings.  Many of those patients have suffered from it from years because they were afraid they would be diagnosed with depression or some other psychiatric disorder and be put on the conventional regimen of Prozac, Xanax, Paxil, or, in one case a patient&#8217;s doctor thought Seroquel would be best for her mood swings. Mental and emotional issues are sometimes the hardest thing for patients to talk about.  I engage patients to explore mental and emotional states.  More often than not, I find that patients who experience frequent mood swings that involve… <a href="http://lpinternalmedicine.com/news/?p=263" rel="bookmark">more</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Saccharomyces boulardii, a probiotic, has been shown to increase IgA levels in patients with chronic active intestinal disease such as Crohn&#8217;s, Ulcerative Colitis, and Celiac Disease. In my practice, several patients have used Saccharomyces boulardii in combination with a multi-strain probiotic, such as Klaire Lab&#8217;s Ther-Biotic Complete. I dispense Klaire Lab&#8217;s Saccharomyces boulardii and Ther-Biotic Complete probiotics for my patients. These are the top of the line probiotics.
