You see these commercials for Life insurance with "No Medical or Health Questionaire" required.What does this realy mean? Is it realy posible to be insured without any disclosure?
Yes. Because these are ‘guaranteed issue’ policies. The catch is, you have to pay in at least two years before you die, for them to pay out. If you’re well enough to live for two years, you’re usually well enough to live for five years. After five years of paying in, you’re paying in MORE than they are paying out.

Nationalized heath care will be so great, I can hardly wait. Obama will save us. He will help us because we are so pathetic that we cannot take care of ourselves. I will be first in line at one of these national clinics, because in that way I will be ured of getting my health problems (I have a hang nail) taken care of within the first year.
We will be the envy on the world. All will come here for their own free health care, especially our good friends from south of the border. Some know them as illegal aliens, but I like to refer to them as dislocated visitors. They will help us test our new health care system that the liberals will have given us. The dislocated visitors from down south will use our health care system to such an extent that we will soon know if it is able to handle all that was promised, which was free health care for all.
Now I would like the liberals to start working on the other things that are promised to us in the Constitution, and among these are: Free housing for all, free transportation for all, free food (good food!) for all, nice cloths for all, free internet access for all, and finally, a good paying job for all.
I hope the evil rich people and corporations are ready to get soaked by the tax man, because he’s a coming for your money. And you will have no choice but to pay up, or to leave the country, and I’m sure that none of you will leave the country, will you?

House Pledges July 31 Deadline to Pass Health Care Reform
House leaders pledged today to pass comprehensive health care legislation by July 31, a deadline President Obama said showed the “urgency” needed to fulfill his signature reform measure this year.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) announced the deadline after meeting with Obama and other House Democratic leaders at the White House this morning. The president linked the pledge to other progress he said he has made this week on sweeping health care reform, a goal that has proven elusive for decades. If it stays on deadline, the House would send legislation to the Senate after the August recess, improving its chances of passing this year.
“We don’t have any excuses,” Obama said. “The stars are aligned.”
Obama began the week meeting with health care industry executives who pledged to voluntarily reduce the annual growth of health care costs by 1.5 percentage points, saving an estimated $2 trillion over the next decade. Obama repeated today that escalating health care costs are “the single biggest driver by far” of the ballooning budget deficit and national debt, and those projected savings would in theory help reduce Medicare and Medicaid costs in the coming years.
On Tuesday, Obama held a roundtable discussion at the White House with business leaders to talk about employer health care costs. In looking for ways to pay for expanded health care coverage, the administration is considering taxing the cost of some employer-subsidized health benefits, something that Obama opposed during last year’s campaign.
But Obama said today he is encouraged by the week’s discussions, saying that “we are starting to see a shift in those patterns” of partisanship, industry opposition, and special-interest lobbying pressure that have conspired to undermine past efforts to bring down health care costs and extend coverage. About 50 million Americans have no health insurance today.
Republican Rep. Roy Blunt (Mo.), chairman of the House Health Care Solutions Group, expressed displeasure after the meeting at not having been included.
“I’ve told the President and White House staff on numerous occasions that the House Health Care Solutions Group is ready to work with him toward the shared goal of making quality, affordable health care accessible to all Americans,” he said in a statement. “This common ground serves as a constructive starting point for true health care reform, but we find private, one-party meetings that set arbitrary deadlines a sign of a troubling lack of bipartisanship.”

There is a vast amount of data from traditional psychiatry, that opines Bipolar Disorder to be a genetic disorder, but that doesn’t explain what causes it.
The inability to break down Norepinephrine due to a deficiency in an enzyme called COMT is one objective finding I have found useful in explaining to patients why they behave or react certain ways. (And this one is a genetic find)
Pfeiffer reported that those who have daily or day-to-day mood swings have food allergies or hypoglycemia. In addition, he said they are pyroluric and are easily treated with adequate doses of B6 and Zinc. (do you know about pyroluria?)
Pfeiffer recommends
1. Adequate B6 for dream recall (NTE 2gms qd)
2. Zinc (as gluconate) 30mg am &pm
3. Manganese (as gluconate) 10mg am &pm
4. if B6 produces numbness in extremities. Shift to pyridoxal phosphate at 1/10th dose of normal B6
I found it interesting that I have been trained in traditional psychiatry to medicate manic-depressives. Personally, I find this dreadful, as I think we lose a lot of great minds and creations when we do. Just think of all the historical geniuses who would fit the bipolar mold, and if they were living today, they would be medicated out of creating. (Not to offend anyone, but this would probably also include Jesus Christ, as he would certainly fit the bill for a Bipolar Psychotic, by today’s standards, just think about it). And all the actors, and others today who are strange and bizarre, well, some are getting medicated and they aren’t doing too much anymore.

Drug Withdrawals, Psychiatry, Mental Health Medications
Dr. Breeding discusses the withdrawal symptoms or discontinuation symptoms of mental health meds like antidepressants, antipsychotics, amphetamines, adhd drugs, and anxiety medications. He gives different resources that person can use to help them taper off the drugs.
Dr. Breeding points out that many doctors overlook the withdrawal symptoms when a person discontinues taking a psychiatric drug and thus claim that the person is having a relapse of mental illness instead of the effects of coming off of a drug one is addicted to.
