This was posted by Dr. Mercola. Microplastics are an environmental health burden that we just can't avoid.

• Human brain tissue contains far higher concentrations of microplastics than liver or kidney tissue, and researchers found the burden increased sharply between 2016 and 2024. (Recent research shows micro- and nanoplastics make up about 0.48% to 0.5% by weight of the human brain. This amounts to roughly 4,800 to 4,900 micrograms per gram of tissue, which is equivalent to the mass of a standard plastic spoon.)
• Researchers discovered that patients with microplastics embedded inside carotid artery plaque faced a 4.53-fold higher risk of heart attack, stroke or death compared to patients without detectable plastics in plaque.
• Studies found plastic particles inside blood clots and diseased artery walls, while animal experiments showed nanosized plastics disrupting blood flow and worsening brain injury after stroke.
• Ultraprocessed foods, bottled beverages, plastic packaging, contaminated water and airborne particles expose your body to microplastics daily, allowing the burden to build gradually inside tissues and blood vessels. (It is interesting, something that I had not thought about, tires, as they wear down, are contaminating the air with microplastics.)
• Reducing ultraprocessed foods, avoiding heated plastic containers, filtering drinking water and improving metabolic and vascular health help lower ongoing exposure and support your body’s defenses against chronic inflammatory damage.
Right now, as you read this sentence, microscopic shards of plastic are likely lodged inside your brain tissue, your arteries and the blood circulating to every organ in your body. A decade ago, this claim would have sounded like science fiction. Today, it’s the conclusion of peer-reviewed research.
Researchers reported in Brain Health that human brain tissue contains far higher microplastic concentrations than liver or kidney tissue, and the burden appears to be climbing year over year.
Even more alarming, people diagnosed with dementia carried the heaviest burden of all, a finding that shouldn’t be ignored because your brain controls every thought, memory, emotion and movement you experience every day.
Meanwhile, stroke remains the second leading cause of death worldwide, according to researchers writing in the Journal of Xenobiotics. A stroke occurs when blood flow to part of your brain becomes blocked, meaning brain cells lose oxygen and begin to die.
The warning signs — sudden weakness, facial drooping, slurred speech, dizziness, confusion and severe headache — are the body’s signal that circulation has failed somewhere upstream.
Left untreated, stroke leads to permanent disability, cognitive decline or death. And a separate line of research shows that when these particles turn up inside the arteries feeding the brain, the consequences for cardiovascular survival are striking.
Exposure doesn’t come from one isolated source. Ultraprocessed foods, bottled drinks, food packaging, airborne particles and contaminated water expose your body to microplastics daily.
Researchers have pulled plastic particles straight out of diseased artery walls and stroke-related blood clots and animal studies suggest that nanoplastics — the smallest fragments, measured in billionths of a meter — slip past the blood-brain barrier into the brain itself, disrupting circulation and fueling inflammation from within.
Think of it this way: if a microplastic fragment were the size of a grain of sand, a nanoplastic would be smaller than a speck of dust floating in a sunbeam — small enough to slip between the cells that normally guard your brain like a security checkpoint. End of Dr. Mercola's article.
I have a product at the office which I used to pull microplastics out of my body. With muscle testing I needed 30 capsules! My thought was that is way too much let alone the costs of a bottle every 4th day. I also have a product that pulls out glyphosate, aka, Round-Up. I also needed 30 capsules of that product. A thought occurred to me, what if I have the bottles touching each other? They must work synergistically, because together I only needed one capsule of each product. TMI here: recall that I have a reputation for being the p**p doctor. My stools became very stinky, about a week into taking the products, (this has been validated by patients who have also been on the products), the color was all over the chart: clay, brown, greenish. My urine became white! I had a difficult time differentiating the white toilet bowel from the white urine, even though I take a fair amount of B complex vitamins. Functional medicine does have a test to measure the microplastics. I'm of the school of thought that it's in every human being and animal. Why spend the money for confirmation? I'd rather put my money on the treatment.

Sometimes I wonder as to how I end up at the websites that I fall into in my search of my never-ending curiosity. I don't recall how I found Samual Sheppard's website only to say it must have been divine intervention.
This man had been diagnosed with an untreatable form of bone marrow cancer in the early 2000's. He used his years of education and experience as a researcher and inventor to find an alternative to his prognosis. With the resources available to him he asked the question: What 5 animals never get cancer? The research came up with these 5: salmon, flamingos, elephants, naked mole rates and shrimp. Upon further research he found that these animals consumed high levels of a red algae.
I had a time understanding how elephants were getting the red algae since most tend to live in the savannas and they go through a drought season. Low and behold these ponds or watering holes contain an algae which produce an extreme amount of antioxidants to survive the drought. Samual started to experiment on himself and over time he didn't need to be phlebotomized monthly. His blood had become extremely thick as a result of his cancer type leading to an enlarged heart. As his took increasing amount of the red algae his lab numbers started to turn in the correct direction. As of today, he is cancer free.
While there are many supplement companies out there that carry astaxanthin, his has a glucose type of bond to it making it superior to the others. Another factor that separates his product is the amount of the astaxanthin per capsule. It's readily absorbed and has a very high antioxidant value. His product is called ValAsta.
Take a moment to listen to his story on YouTube.
The image below shows how astaxanthin can benefit the body.

I find this image quite intriguing. Couldn't be easier to remember which food is good for which organ.
Carrots benefit your eyes primarily because they are rich in beta-carotene, an antioxidant that the body converts into Vitamin A. This essential nutrient maintains a clear cornea, protects cellular health, and allows you to see in low-light conditions.
Walnuts are the ultimate "brain food," packed with plant-based omega-3s, antioxidants, and polyphenols. Consuming a handful (about 1.5 ounces or 7–11 walnuts) daily promotes neuron health, lowers oxidative stress and brain inflammation, improves working memory, and speeds up reaction times.
Ginger is a natural powerhouse for digestive health. Driven by active compounds like gingerol, it accelerates stomach emptying, combats nausea, and relieves gas and bloating. It works directly on your gut to soothe discomfort safely and effectively.
Figs (especially Ficus carica extract and leaves) support testicular health by providing antioxidants (flavonoids, vitamin C) that protect s***m DNA from oxidative damage. They also supply essential minerals like zinc, which aids in testosterone production, and potassium, which supports the healthy blood flow necessary for reproductive functions.
Tomatoes for heart health due to two key nutrients that have a big impact on heart health: lycopene and potassium.
Lycopene is a chemical that gives a tomato its red color and is also a powerful antioxidant, a type of substance that helps keep cells from becoming damaged. Some research shows that lycopene may lower LDL, or “bad” cholesterol, and keep blood from clotting, which lowers stroke risk.
Potassium is a mineral that can help lower blood pressure by taking some of the sodium out of your body, and by relaxing the walls of your blood vessels.
Kidney beans are rich in vitamin B, fiber, and several minerals that cleanse the kidney. They boost the urinary tract function and prevent the risk of frequently occurring urinary tract infections.
Citrus fruits benefit breast health primarily by reducing the risk of breast cancer through high concentrations of antioxidants, vitamins, and bioactive compounds like flavonoids and limonoids. Interesting, the most beneficial part of the citrus is what we throw away. The majority of the benefits are in the citrus peel and the pith.
Grapes benefit lung health primarily by fighting oxidative stress and reducing airway inflammation, which helps protect lung tissue from pollutants, smoke, and age-related decline.
Sweet potatoes support pancreas health primarily by stabilizing blood sugar levels, reducing inflammation, and providing high levels of protective antioxidants. As a nutrient-dense, low-glycemic food, they reduce the workload on the pancreas, which is responsible for insulin production and glucose regulation.
Avocados benefit the uterus by supporting a healthy endometrial lining, regulating reproductive hormones, and reducing inflammatory pain. Their rich nutritional profile delivers specific advantages for female reproductive and uterine health.

05/28/2026

Resistant starch is a type of carbohydrate that bypasses digestion in the small intestine and ferments in the colon. It functions like a prebiotic, feeding healthy gut bacteria, improving insulin sensitivity, and helps with the sense of keeping you full.
Top Health Benefits Better Blood Sugar Control: Because it resists digestion, it doesn't spike blood glucose. It has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and lower the risk of type 2 diabetes.
Improved Gut Health: Fermentation in the large intestine produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), like butyrate, which reduces inflammation and supports a healthy colon, helping with a condition called leaky gut. Butyrate, an important fuel for the colon, might possibly protect against colon cancer. Resistant starches function similarly to fiber by resisting digestion.
Weight Management: It increases satiety (the feeling of fullness) and reduces overall appetite, which can aid in weight loss.
Heart Health: Research shows it may help lower LDL ("bad") cholesterol and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Enhanced Nutrient Absorption: It improves the bioavailability and absorption of essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron.
Where to Find It: To incorporate more resistant starch into your meals, consider adding these whole, plant-based foods to your diet: Legumes: Lentils, chickpeas, and black beans. Grains: Oats, barley, and sorghum.
Produce: Unripe (green) bananas, green plantains, and sunchokes (Jerusalem artichokes).
Pro-Tip: The Cooling Method. You can actually create resistant starch in common starchy foods through a process called retrogradation. When you cook and then cool foods like potatoes, rice, or pasta, the starch molecules crystallize and become resistant to digestion. This means cold potato salad or reheated leftover rice will have a much lower impact on your blood sugar than when eaten fresh and hot.
It's summertime, enjoy that potato or pasta salad without guilt!

05/14/2026

The liver is an essential organ, performing over 500 critical functions, including the regulation of blood chemicals, bile production, drug metabolism, blood clotting control, and the breakdown, regulation, and synthesis of nutrients, glucose and hormonal clearance. The liver is a central regulator of hormones, responsible for metabolizing, activating, and breaking down hormones like estrogen, thyroid hormones, and cortisol, while producing binding proteins. When liver function is impaired, it cannot effectively process these hormones, leading to imbalances, such as high estrogen levels (estrogen dominance), fatigue, and issues with metabolism.
Function of the liver: Filtering and removing toxins and waste products from the blood.
Metabolizing nutrients by converting nutrients from your food into essential blood components.
Storing vitamins and minerals by holding onto crucial vitamins and minerals for later use.
Producing bile, which helps with digestion.
Processing glucose by removing it from your bloodstream and storing it as glycogen for use later on.
Regulating amino acids for the production of proteins.
Regulating blood clotting by producing proteins necessary for blood to clot.
Detoxifying chemicals by breaking down potentially harmful chemicals the body intakes. Folks, in today's toxic environment the liver is heavily taxed.
Regulating cholesterol by converting excess cholesterol into bile acids so it can be eliminated from your body.
Supporting immune function by removing bacteria from the blood, supporting the immune system.

Unhealthy lifestyle habits, illnesses, and environmental factors that can hurt your liver:
Drinking Too Much Alcohol: Consuming a lot of alcoholic beverages can severely harm your liver by causing conditions like alcoholic liver disease and cirrhosis, a condition when the liver slowly deteriorates and is unable to function normally.
Eating Unhealthy Foods: A high-caloric diet filled with unhealthy fats, sugars, and processed foods may lead to liver problems such as fatty liver disease.
Being Inactive: Not getting enough exercise can increase your risk of developing liver diseases.
Being Overweight: Carrying extra weight, especially around your waist, can harm your liver.
Smoking: Using to***co products can increase the chance of getting liver cancer and fatty liver disease.
Exposure to Chemicals: Coming into contact with harmful chemicals like cleaning supplies and pesticides can damage your liver.
Viral Infections: Hepatitis viruses like hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E can inflame, infect, and damage your liver.
Medications: Certain medications, such as NSAIDs, antibiotics, antiepileptics, statins, antifungals, immunosuppressants, and methotrexate, which are used to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases, can be toxic to the liver.
Genetic Conditions: Some liver issues can be passed down in families due to genetics, including hemochromatosis, Gilbert's Syndrome, and Alpha-1 Antitrypsin deficiency.
Autoimmune Diseases: Sometimes, the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the liver, causing damage. These autoimmune liver diseases include autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, and primary sclerosing cholangitis.
Symptoms of liver damage may present as: a swollen abdomen, tenderness under the right anterior rib cage area, yellowing of the skin and/or eyeballs, itchy skin, changes in the urine, changes in the stool, (yellow, clay, tan colored stool), loss of appetite, water retention, weight gain or loss, chronic fatigue, bruising easily, mental fog spider like blood vessels on the skin.

Before you continue reading the entire verbage posted scroll down to the image for a second then come back to read the following.
As you look at the list of health issues listed what would you consider the culprit for the symptoms?
It's something that we are exposed to daily, impossible to completely avoid and is here to stay.
Microplastics! I like the historical comparison of the Ice Age, the Stone Age, the Dark Ages and now the Microplastic Age.
Microplastics get embedded into all the tissues of the body creating havoc on our health.
There are a number of ingredients that help pull the microplastics out of the body. I have products at the office that can help.
If you aren't getting anywhere in your health journey considering microplastic remediation might be the missing block to health improvement.

Poor Cholesterol! It has been vilified as the cause of many health problems but in reality, it is important and vital to health. An average of 75% of the cholesterol circulating in the body is made in the liver. It is the building block of every cell which is made up of a phosphoLIPID. Cholesterol breaks down via an enzyme to make pregnenolone, the master hormone that breaks down to make cortisol, DHEA, aldosterone, the s*x hormones: estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.
If a woman's cholesterol levels fall below 150, she will stop having a cycle, due to not having enough of the building blocks to make the s*x hormones from cholesterol.
I read recently that 75% of heart attack victim had normal cholesterol. (this image shows 50%).
Often times patients develop muscle pain from taking stains. A type of pain that makes one feel sore all over the body, like that feeling of coming down with the flu type of soreness.
Seldom do I hear a patient tell me that the prescribing doctor recommended that they take CoQ10 along with the cholesterol medication. CoQ10 is a major antioxidant that protects the heart.
Mental decline has been documented as a side effect of taking statins.
I have had great results in lowering cholesterol in most patients by reducing inflammation. Inflammation is the driver for arterial plaquing in the arteries and so many other health conditions.
It's a different paradigm then what most medical doctors have been taught by their pharmaceutical reps. If the pharmaceutical industry gets their way, the "norm" for cholesterol will become 150. Back in the 1960's the norm was 300. The original research in the 1960's was flawed to show the benefits of statins. I often hear from medical doctors that the "scientific studies" need to prove or validate recommendations made. I ask for the independent study that shows no biases or personal gains. That discussion is for another day...
