Clinical Repertory

Clinical Repertory
The three docs whose protocols are featured on this CD-ROM use Thorne Research products almost
exclusively in their respective practices, and feel there is a need for a clinical repertory to help other
doctors use these unique, hypo-allergenic, well-researched products. As new research has been
conducted, it has become necessary to revise the original 3docs CD-ROM.
Stated the docs, This CD-ROM is designed to assist the practitioner in choosing the most
efcacious therapeutic regimen for various health conditions. Most of the products listed are from
Thorne Research, as they are the products we have used the most in our practices, and have found
to be of great quality and value. They are formulated with the utmost respect for the patient and
the practitioner, with special emphasis on hypo-allergenicity, absorption, and providing therapeutic
amounts of well-researched nutrients and botanicals. We are also aware that Thorne provides
excellent technical literature, including many informative product sheets and the peer-reviewed,
MEDLINE-indexed Alternative Medicine Review. However, we are also aware that they cannot
legally tell you explicitly which of their products are useful in treating specic health problems. But
we can.
The Clinical Repertory is laid out alphabetically by health conditions. You can click on the index
link in the left window for a specic condition, which will take you directly to that section. If you
have Adobe Acrobat version 4.05 or higher, you can search the repertory for specic words and
the program will take you to the areas of the Repertory where those words appear. If you do not
currently have Adobe Acrobat, it is provided for you on this CD-ROM. There are links in many
of the health condition sections that will take you to patient handouts, diets, vendor or laboratory
listings, as well as other health conditions that may be applicable. You can also print the Repertory, if
you would rather have it on paper.
Enjoy.

Getting Started or How to use the Clinical Repertory:
Conditions that may respond to nutritional or botanical intervention are listed in alphabetical
order. Find the recommended therapeutics by clicking on the condition in the left hand column. A
brief description of the condition will appear, followed by a list of potential supplements. Those
supplements listed rst and in bold, are ones we consider to be the most important. If a condition
does not have any therapeutics in bold, that is because we feel they are all important or we have
otherwise indicated how to differentiate when to use a particular supplement. Recommended dosage
and mechanisms of action are listed next to each therapeutic option.
Other clinical considerations and potential laboratory tests are listed after many of the conditions.
All products are from Thorne Research unless otherwise specied.
Product names mentioned in this publication may be trademarks or registered trademarks of their
respective companies and are hereby acknowledged.
Another note: We all agree that every patient protocol must include a multiple-vitamin-mineral
supplement such as one of the Basic Nutrients products. With this factor in mind, we did not
include the redundant line in every indication listed. In certain cases we have noted specic
multiples that should replace Basic Nutrients in the therapeutic regimen.

1. Nightly exposure to the waxing and waning of the moon throughout the month is a powerful environmental cue. Exposure to
the light of the full moon can often times completely normalize a womans cycle. This can be simulated by the following: On the
four nights when the moon would be at its brightest leave a bright lamp with a 100 watt light bulb on in the bedroom all night to
simulate the light of the moon. The lamp should be placed about 3 feet from the head. Allow 4 months of exposure to full moon
or lamp to assist with reestablishment of the rhythm of the cycle.

FIBROMYALGIA
Diagnosis: A multi-faceted disease which may adversely effect the neuroendocrine, immune, and musculoskeletal systems resulting
in 11 of 18 specic designated points. It may develop post-Inuenza type A, post motor vehicle accident, after a prolonged period of
sleep deprivation, with RA, Lupus, Lyme disease, or HIV. Women are affected more frequently than men. FM may be confused with
chronic fatigue syndrome, because of the similar symptomatology, but the causative factor in CFS may be Epstein Barr virus, and
there is also no conrming evidence of the specic joint-muscle pains seen in FM. Irritable bowel symptoms or severe mood distur
bances are more common in FM. Serotonin levels are usually normal in CFS.

Diagnosis: The type of hepatitis, whether chronic or acute, is determined by the presence of antibodies anti-HCV antibodies in the
case of hepatitis C and anti-HBV antibodies in hepatitis B. While liver enzymes, especially ALT, are elevated in acute hepatitis, they
often return to normal within the rst year. Only 33 percent of people with chronic hepatitis C demonstrate elevated ALT. Progression
of disease should be monitored by viral load and liver biopsy. Biopsy will show the extent of brosis or cirrhosis and rule out the presence of hepatocellular carcinoma.

1. High intake of coffee (>6 cups/d) can increase homocysteine levels. Increased levels found in heart disease, stroke,
recurrent miscarrages, peripheral vascular disease, cognitive decline/Alzheimers Disease, rheumatoid arthritis, depression,
osteoporosis,, and renal failure.
2. Avoid SAMe supplements can increase homocysteine
