Alternative Primary CareParasites Got You Down?
There is some good basic information regarding parasites in this video. If you are suffering from chronic fatigue, chronic IBS or just don’t feel well and question your energy levels taking a look at whether you have parasites may not be as outlandish as it sounds. Most of us think that parasites are a third world problem but, this video points out how it’s more common of a problem here than we think. A couple of natural parasite treatment options that are suggested in the video are: raw papaya seeds with honey and wormwood tea.

Potassium Packed Molasses
Don’t overlook molasses as a potential sugar substitute for beverages and more. Molasses is packed with about 300 mg of potassium per a tablespoon. We know potassium is great for blood pressure and muscle cramps. One tablespoon of Molasses averages about 59 calories, contains zero grams of protein or fat, almost 15 g of carbohydrates, 41 mg calcium, 48 mg magnesium. In addition to other nutrients we can also find iron, vitamin B6, selenium and copper in molasses making it a nutritious choice.
If you’d like more information on how to incorporate molasses into your diet, please, contact: David here: Contact Us or call 352-464-1645
Food dye has should have parents seeing red
America consumes three million pounds of red food dye #40 a year and I’ll bet that children are not the only ones affected. While Europe has banned this dye as a food ingredient, hopefully we are right behind them on this one, but that’s unlikely.
Numerous studies show the negative effects in kids of this dye as hyperactivity because the dye affects their brain chemistry. If screwing with your brain isn’t enough red food dye #3 is also a carcinogen – a cancer causing agent.

Research shows more than 2 oz of meat a day causes cancer
Mark Bittman, successful chef and food author, makes a good case for eating less meat. He goes into interesting livestock production and meat consumption facts for the US. After energy production, livestock production is the 2nd highest cause of air and water pollution and water shortages in the US.
Plants are known healing foods and for better health we should strive to eat less meat, less junk and more plants.
That 2 oz (about 12g) of meat is more accurately stated as consuming more than 5% of your daily caloric intake from animal based protein causes cancer. Meat is not the only culprit here because that 2oz is 2oz from any “animal based protein” which includes cheese, yogurt, eggs and bacon. One way of looking at it is this includes anything that had a “Mother”!

Grand Opening of Our New Cooking Program
Grand Opening of Our New Cooking Program
Hello, there is some exciting news to share with you regarding Alternative Primary Care…
We are expanding to make room for a demonstration kitchen. This additional 750 sq. ft. space will be used as a classroom for patients, their friends and family, and other newcomers who are interested in learning more about planning and preparing healthy meals. Food Therapy has long-been a passion of mine, and I believe that proper food choices are central to any successful treatment plan; moreover, no person can truly “be healthy” if they do not learn to “eat healthy.”
This will be a great opportunity for you to learn more about avoiding preventable diseases by planning and preparing meals that keep you healthy. It sounds simple – eat more salads and less burgers and you’ll live longer; when, in reality there is a lot more to it. Sometimes eating cold-raw salads can actually be the wrong choice for optimal health – depending on your overall health. My goal, and the purpose of this 6 week program is to help you live better: with less pain, preventable disease and with less dependence on prescription drugs – now and into the future.
This 6 week program will teach you how to plan and prepare meals that will improve your energy and overall health. Before you begin, we will meet for a planning session to identify goals that reflect your specific needs like, weight loss, reducing blood pressure – cholesterol – glucose, anxiety – depression, auto-immune and endocrine disorders, and any other chronic health issues that you may face. We will track and measure your success throughout this 6 week program, so that you can see the results.
Unlike diet plans that are hard to follow and lack teaching tools that help you succeed, this 6 week cooking “boot camp” is easy to follow, and provides you with tools and skills that are easy to implement. I will personally work with you throughout this program to make certain that you are learning all the basics needed to succeed. Together we will make sure you are reaching your goals.
Additional programs for intermediate and advanced students have been developed so that by the time you finish this starter plan, you can progress to the next module, and continue your journey toward achieving and maintaining ideal health. I am so excited to get started… I hope that you are too.
There are several options for class enrollment; you can choose which plan best fits your schedule and budget. This has been designed with everyone in mind, so if you have been wanting to make dietary changes and were waiting for the right kind of plan for you, then this is a great way to get started: easy instruction, simple ingredients, personally tailored and physician supervised. Come on, let’s get started!
You may contact me directly to get additional details about scheduling and pricing. This is an ambitious program designed to challenge your perceptions about good nutrition, and to simplify everyday healthy cooking. My hope is that you are as excited to get started as I am – see you in the Kitchen.

Low Fat Lies
We already know to mistrust labels. This video goes into specifics about fat free products and how companies skirt around the truth of the fat content. It seems that fat free soups and packaged foods are yet another group of packaged foods to avoid. If we follow a whole foods diet then we won’t be consuming any of these unhealthy products.
For more information on a whole foods diet plan contact: David: www.Alternative-Primary-Care.com or call 352-464-1645
A Diagnosis of 6 months to live, turned into a “LIFE” sentence when Death Diet Refused and Health Diet Accepted.
Believe it or not, this quadruple bypass patient’s hospital food plan FAILS to provide appropriate and nutritious choices for a patient who is sick and vulnerable. The narrator in the video below, (his daughter) accurately coins hospital food choices as “death diet’ for obvious reasons.
A better option is eating a balanced and well-thought-out plant based diet. Objective, evidence-based research now clearly demonstrates that whole food plant based diets promote a healthy mind and body.
If you are stuck eating the Standard American Diet (SAD) and live with chronic pain, dysfunction and illness, then you can contact David at www.Alternative-Primary-Care.com or 352.464.1645 to learn how to begin eating your way to a healthier you.
This can be easy with a little help getting started.

Title: June Thermography Update
From the desk of: David Bibbey, AP
TO: All patients
RE: June Thermography Imaging Availability
Click Here to Learn More About Thermography
June 28th is this month’s date that Mariam Tovar will be visiting Alternative Primary Care to continue providing Thermal Imaging for our patients.
As you know this type of screening and imaging is readily available in larger cities, but for Citrus County residents you have to travel to Gainesville, Tampa or Orlando. For this reason, I have invited my colleague with advanced training to provide Thermography Screening at my office on Friday, June 28th from 10:00am – 4:00pm.
Presently, only 5 of the 10 appointments scheduled remain available, so I really encourage you to contact my office today. Call 352.464.1645, so that I can reserve your appointment time.
Best in health,
David Bibbey
