Lyme, Alzheimer’s, Chronic Pain & Menopause: Optimum Health Report #355

A clear blue sky, symbolizing the hope lifeworks patients are given after treatment

Greetings all!

Here was a nice review sent in by a patient who is an out of state medical practitioner who has been suffering for a long time. She came to us last year and spent a couple of months getting her Lyme and mold illness treated successfully. She traveled a thousand miles down here because she could not get results from doctors in her area. She was unable to eat, had lost weight to the point of frailness and had exhausting fatigue. Her brain fog prevented her from being able to take care of her family or her patients. She writes…

“Hi LifeWorks! This is Dr. B. Just wanted to let you all know that I have gained all my pre-Lyme weight back and have returned to work. I am now helping others diagnosed with Lyme and have sent several patients your way. I want to thank you all for helping me on my journey. I consider myself 98% healed and feel great. Thanks a million to Dr. Minkoff and all of your wonderful staff.”

If you want results like this for yourself or people you know, have them call us. We have outstanding results with any chronic medical problem.

Have a great week,
Dr. David I Minkoff, MD

Dr. Springer Talks About Menopause & Perimenopause

Patient Testimonial

“After a year of believing what I thought was fibromyalgia, my life was forever changed. Taking anti-depressants that caused my adrenal glands to be damaged. I had impossible days, where I was unable to walk 15 feet to the bathroom, had terrible stomach pains and depression. I knew that my life couldn’t be this way forever. So I got my last opinion before giving up and I found LifeWorks. After all the testing it had been determined that I had Lyme disease and leaky gut causing me to gain 35 lbs. I stayed positive as much as I could. After 10 IV’s and HOCATT’s, I am able to run miles again. I have learned healthy yummy foods to help better my body. After the worse year of my life, at 19 years old – still in college – I have regained my life back to the fullest. I am so grateful for all the staff’s help and support in my full recovery.”

About Dr. David Minkoff, Medical Director

Dr. David Minkoff graduated from the University of Wisconsin Medical School in 1974 and was elected to the “Phi Beta Kappa” of medical schools, the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honors Medical Fraternity for very high academic achievement. He then completed both a Pediatric Residency and a Fellowship in Infectious Disease at the University of California at San Diego. He worked at the University of California and Children’s Hospitals in San Diego as an attending physician in infectious disease while conducting original research on Ribaviron, a broad spectrum anti-viral agent to fight disease. He also co-directed a neo-natal intensive care unit and worked in emergency medicine. In 1992, Dr. Minkoff’s wife Sue, a Registered Nurse, became interested in nutrition and health and began to go to lectures from some of the experts in the field. At the time, Dr. Minkoff was pretty fixed in his view of traditional medicine and it took a lot of convincing to get him to come to one of these lectures. After hearing Dr. Jeffrey Bland speak, Dr. Minkoff had a eureka moment and began pursuing the alternative field with a vengeance. Based on this new knowledge Dr. Minkoff and his wife set up a small clinic in 1997 to help some friends with their medical problems. What began as an experiment blossomed into Lifeworks Wellness Center, one of the most successful clinics for complementary medicine in the United States. In the process, he gained expertise in Biological medicine, integrative oncology, heavy metal detoxification, anti-aging medicine, hormone replacement therapy, functional medicine, energy medicine, neural and prolotherapy, homeopathy, and optimum nutrition. He studied under the masters in each of these disciplines until he became an expert in his own right. Dr. Minkoff is one of the most in-demand speakers in the field and wrote an Amazon best-selling book called The Search For The Perfect Protein. The demand for the products and protocols he discovered became a catalyst for founding BodyHealth.Com, a nutrition company that now manufactures and distributes cutting-edge nutritional solutions for the many health problems of today. Dr. Minkoff writes two free online newsletters, “The Optimum Health Report” and ”The BodyHealth Fitness Newsletter”, to help others learn about optimum health and fitness. Dr. Minkoff is an avid athlete himself and has completed 43 Ironman Triathlons. To keep his fitness maximal, he lives the lifestyle he teaches to others and tries to set an example for others, so they can enjoy a life free of pain and full of energy.
