Readers should not attempt self-diagnosis or self-treatment of any kind and should not discontinue any medication or therapy or make any health-related decisions without the advice of a licensed medical physician.

If you are unwilling to be bound by this disclaimer, you should discard this publication.

I f you suffer from a nagging health problem that makes your life difficult or painful…

…if you’re battling a serious condition that threatens to ruin or even end your life…

…then you need to know about the unique and powerful phytonutrient thera-pies I’ve developed over the past 35 years that will put you on the road to optimal health in 45 days or less.

My story begins back in 1975 when I first opened my practice in Carmel, CA. I quickly realized that conventional medi-cine’s “drugs-and-surgery-for-every-ail-ment” approach was hopelessly outdated and expensive.

The deadly truth about conventional

medicineMore importantly, it exposed patients

to unnecessary dangers like drug interac-tions and surgeries with unintended con-sequences.

So I set out to find something better, which was the beginning of an odyssey of enlightenment that would eventually culminate in a new approach to healing.

An approach you can now use to over-come your most serious health concerns.

My own personal “Eureka!” moment

In 1976, I purchased an endocardio-graph machine that converts heart sounds into a graph, allowing the physician to clearly see if the heart is functioning nor-mally.

I remember hooking it up to one of my patients who had a long history of heart disease. As expected, it showed the classic signs of an abnormal heartbeat.

After he took one of the many “heart supplements” that were all the rage at that time, I checked the graph again and saw...absolutely no change whatsoever.

Then I had my patient chew a “phy-tonutrient” supplement. Within minutes, the graph showed a strong, healthy heart-beat (see page 4).

That one tablet did more for my patient’s heart than any prescription drug or surgical procedure could ever do.

It showed us how to put that man back on the road to health and gave him his

life back.

And for me, that graphic demonstra-tion convinced me of the power of the phytonutrient therapies I’m going to tell you about in this report.

Healing over 90,000 people

Today, 35 years later, I’ve successfully treated more than 90,000 people using my phytonutrient therapies. And I’ve helped people with every type of medical prob-lem imaginable.

Along the way, I founded Health Alert, the monthly publication that updates the vast storehouse of healing information found in The 45-Day Health Turnaround, my 185-page compendium of treatment protocols.

Today, more than 25,000 doctors get my newsletter and over 40 of the world’s top experts serve (without pay) on my Advisory Board.

I’d like to help you get started on the road to optimal health by sending you a FREE copy of The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

You won’t find any of these exclusive breakthroughs on the Internet…and most doctors don’t have a clue. Please see page 17 for details.

A FREE service even your own doctor doesn’t offerIn its 185 pages, The 45-Day Health

Turnaround explains the noninvasive protocols I use to successfully treat people with more than 100 medical conditions, ranging from life-threatening diseases like cancer and heart disease to less seri-ous (but still annoying) conditions like an enlarged prostate or chronic fatigue.

Each issue of Health Alert updates this massive compendium of medical knowledge to ensure you always have the most up-to-date information to make your life better. Information you won’t find on the Internet or in a retail store.

Better yet, as a Health Alert subscrib-er, you have access to an exclusive FREE service that ensures you’ll have the answers you need for any health prob-lems you suffer from. If you have a med-ical problem that’s not covered, or a con-dition that doesn’t seem to respond as you think it should, send me a letter and I’ll see that you get the help you need. Not even your family doctor can make that promise!

With Health Alert, you can:

◆ Live pain free without painkillers◆ Control your blood sugar without

drugs◆ Beat clogged arteries and high blood

pressure without prescription drugs◆ End the misery of colds, flu, sinusitis,

bronchitis and pneumonia without antibiotics

◆ Permanently end your digestive distressI call this new approach “pragmatic

medicine.” It’s an advanced version of the complementary medicine practiced by increasing numbers of successful doctors. And it’s based on three common sense principles:

■ PRINCIPLE #1: The best treatments are those that actually work with real people in real-world situations, rath-er than theoretical remedies from a laboratory...

■ PRINCIPLE #2: To cure anyone of any-thing, you have to treat the underly-ing cause of disease instead of treat-ing the symptoms...

■ PRINCIPLE #3: Prescription drugs and surgery, which often come with dangerous side effects, should be a last resort rather than the first line of defense against disease and illness.

Pragmatic medicine blends the best traditional medical procedures with the intelligent use of a class of natural sub-stances called phytonutrients.

Your key to restored health

Unlike vitamins and supplements found in stores or sold on the Internet, phytonutrients aren’t made in a factory.

They’re created from a wide variety of organic, nutrient-rich foods using a com-plicated process that only a handful of laboratories are capable of following.

Phytonutrients are the most concen-trated form of healing nutrients. And

they’re naturally bound to a variety of essential “helper” substances, including enzymes, co-enzymes and trace mineral activators.

Makes conventional supplements obsolete

This last point is crucial and explains why phytonutrients work so much bet-ter than ordinary supplements. It’s also why I’ve been so successful using them to treat people with a wide range of medical conditions.

As the prestigious journal Nature explains, your body is unable to prop-erly use nutrients unless they’re accom-panied by a number of supporting sub-stances found in nature.

About 95% of store-bought supple-ments are flushed out of your kidneys within 24 hours after you take them. That means only 5% actually does you any good.

But with phytonutrients, the numbers are reversed. About 95% of phyto-nutrents are absorbed and only 5% are excreted.

That’s because phytonutrients contain the essential “helper” substances that store-bought supplements lack.

New findings prove the power of phytonutrients

A number of studies have documented the power of phytonutrients, including some intriguing findings from the Uni-versity of China.

There, a team of biochemists discov-ered that nutritional concentrates derived from plants (phytonutrients) contain microscopic specks of the plant’s genetic material.

After being eaten, this material finds its way into your bloodstream, active and intact, where it has powerful beneficial effects on your bad cholesterol, tissues, glands and organs.

That doesn’t happen with store-bought supplements, which are almost completely flushed from your body hours after you take them.

Of course, most medical practitioners use no nutrition at all. Others use ordi-nary supplements to treat patients. My colleagues and I who practice pragmatic medicine use phytonutrients.

But that’s not the only difference between these two approaches to healing…

Treat the cause, not the effect

While most complementary medicine practitioners may use herbs and synthetic vitamins as adjuncts to prescription drugs and surgery, the emphasis is still too often on treating symptoms.

Pragmatic medicine, on the other hand, focuses on determining and treat-

ing the underlying cause of your medical conditions.

Since a startlingly high percentage of disease is caused by nutritional deficien-cies, I’ve been able to successfully treat people with a broad range of medical problems with phytonutrient protocols, turning to prescription drugs or surgery only as a last resort.

And now you have the opportunity to put my expertise to work for you…

HEALTH NEWS 4

I f you suffer from heart failure or some other form of heart disease, the cause is likely something your doctor knows

nothing about.

It’s a key culprit that I first pinpointed around 25 years ago—and the Medical Establishment still hasn’t caught up.

Better yet, I also devised a treatment protocol that’s among the most powerful and effective I’ve ever developed.

It’s a protocol that could save your life—and provide you with many more years of healthy, energetic living to enjoy with your family.

Let me give you a quick demonstration of just how powerful this protocol is…

Begin to repair years of heart disease

in just 5 minutes!Decades ago, and again in the Novem-

ber 2012 issue of Health Alert, I repro-duced the two endocardiographs, or heart graphs, shown above.

They provide a vivid demonstration of how you can begin to repair years of heart disease almost instantaneously with phytonutrients.

The first is the characteristic graph of a person with a weak heart muscle, a con-dition that affects 75% of all people with heart disease.

Little-known, deadly cause of heart failure

It’s caused by beriberi of the heart, which results from a B-vitamin deficiency and causes near paralysis of your nerves and heart muscle, resulting in heart failure and death.

The second heart graph was taken of the same person 5 minutes after chewing two tablets that I recommend as part of my healthy heart protocol.

As you can see, this person’s heart is now beating normally thanks to those

powerful phytonutrient supplements.

I address the crucial role that B vita-mins play in heart health on page 17 of The 45-Day Health Turnaround. It’s just one part of an extensive heart health program that, in more than 40 pag-es, reveals the best ways you can treat

every type of cardiovascular problem imaginable.

You can drastically reduce your chances of a

heart attack or strokeYou’ll find my heart health program a

big relief if your cholesterol readings are “too high”…if your doctor has put you on a diet that’s impossible to follow…or if you’re afraid that risky heart surgery is in your future.

That’s because, at last, you’ll be giv-ing your heart what it really needs to stay strong, so you can live a longer, more vibrant life without worrying about your heart.

Unfortunately, that’s something you won’t get from the Medical Establishment because the very things it recommends for protecting your heart are often the cause of your problems in the first place!

For decades, the country’s leading heart surgeons and cardiologists insis- ted heart disease resulted from ele- vated blood cholesterol. Their solution was a low-fat diet and prescription drugs

“The Medical Establishment is still ‘behind the curve’ on what really causes heart failure.”

BEFORE

CALIFORNIA—“I am 79 years old, and a year and a half ago, I was diagnosed with heart fail-ure. My doctors put me on Cou-madin® to try to prevent a stroke.

“It was the most painful and

challenging year of my life. Then I heard about your treatment of failing hearts using nutrients. I joined your program, ordered the recommended phytonutrients and took them as prescribed.

“I had deteriorated to the point that I was having heart attacks every 2–3 days. My heart was skipping beats and going into fibrillation. My heart was enlarged, and my lungs were filling up with fluid.

“In less than 1 month after starting your protocol, my heart was stronger, no more heart attacks, no more skipped beats or fibrillation, no more fluid in my lungs, no more pain, and my blood pressure returned to normal.

“I thank God for you, Dr. Bruce West. You saved my life.”

—Rev. Billy Martin, California

One month later, no more heart attacks!

Key Findings: Beriberi of the heart is the main

cause of congestive heart fail-ure. This nutritional deficiency disease can be corrected with phytonutrients, but not with synthetic vitamins.

The low-fat and standard Amer-ican diets contribute to arterial inflammation and beriberi of the heart—the two real causes of heart disease.

HEALTH NEWS 5(statins) to lower cholesterol.

But now, some in the Medical Estab-lishment are finally beginning to admit that their recommendations raise your risk of heart disease instead of lower- ing it!

Led by and outlined in a book by the former Chief of Surgery at Banner Heart Hospital in Mesa, Arizona, these whistle-blowers now concede my approach to treating heart-related problems has been right all along…

How many lives could have been saved?

As far back as 1986, I wrote in my Health Alert newsletter that cholesterol was not the culprit behind heart disease.

And while it’s gratifying to be proven right, it’s a sad and tragic fact that in the 27 years since I first spoke this truth, mil-lions of Americans have died needlessly from heart disease.

How many of those people would be alive today if the Medical Establishment had looked at the facts instead of believ-ing Big Pharma (which makes something like $35 billion a year selling cholesterol-lowering statin drugs)?

Consider these surprising facts:

■ FACT #1: Half of all heart attacks occur in people with normal to low cholesterol.

■ FACT #2: Half of all people with high cholesterol don’t have heart attacks.Bottom line: If you’ve been worried

about your cholesterol levels and are doing everything you can to lower them, you’re probably wasting your time.

Worse yet, you’re leaving yourself and your family vulnerable to a heart-related tragedy partially caused by the very diet your doctor recommends for lowering your cholesterol! Let me explain…

I’ve already mentioned that beriberi of the heart is a major cause of heart disease. However, inflammation of your blood vessels is the second.

The “cure” that killsAbout 10 years ago, I wrote in my

Health Alert newsletter: “There is no doubt that infection and inflammation in the inner layer of blood vessels cause dis-ruption of blood flow, potential clots and resultant stroke and heart attacks.”

The world’s top cardiologists now admit that inflammation of the inner layer of the arteries, particularly the coronary arteries, is what triggers heart problems.

And the low-fat diet that the Medical Establishment has prescribed for decades is a main cause of that inflammation!

In other words, the dietary change that’s supposed to keep your heart healthy actually makes heart disease more likely. And that could lead to a real tragedy for you and your family.

You see, the typical low-fat diet is packed with simple carbohydrates (sugar, flour and the products made from them) and high levels of omega-6 vegetable oils from soybeans, corn and sunflowers.

These carbohydrates cause your body to produce inflammatory chemicals called cytokines, which irritate the lining of your arteries.

Heart surgeons who have peered inside coronary arteries will tell you that the walls of an inflamed coronary artery look like they have been sandpapered!

Your body responds by attempting to soothe the irritation with plaque (the main component of which is cholesterol), in much the same way your body heals a cut by creating a scab.

This plaque can clog your arteries, reducing blood flow and causing a heart attack. It can also break free and be carried by your bloodstream to the brain, where it can cause a stroke.

A sad—but wholly preventable—health disaster that only happened because you took the advice of a Medical Establishment that is hopelessly “behind the curve” on the real causes of heart disease.

Worse yet, because a low-fat diet causes your body to produce excess insu-lin, in addition to causing heart prob-lems, the Medical Establishment’s diets have created “an epidemic of obesity and diabetes.”

To stop this attack on your arter-ies, and to reverse the damage done to your heart and body, simply follow the steps you’ll find in The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

And then enjoy the more vibrant and enjoyable life that a stronger, healthier heart brings you.

“Stop masking your pain with painkillers and get to the root cause of your pain.”

Conventional medicine has just one catchall answer to dealing with your chronic pain: drugs that block

the pain.However, at best, this is only a tempo-

rary measure. And soon your pain returns to make your life miserable and to stop you from doing the things you enjoy most.

Worse yet, these drugs expose you to a shocking number of side effects, including blindness, blood clots and even death.

Pragmatic medicine offers you a supe-rior approach that relieves your pain by removing the underlying cause behind it.

When you remove that underlying cause, your pain goes away.

And you no longer have to take dan-gerous painkillers.

Better yet, you can get on with your life…living pain free and doing the things you love. Won’t that be nice?

The surprising deficiency that almost all your pain

has in commonAlthough pain comes in various forms,

most of it is traceable to a common cause: A modern diet that fails to provide your body with the essential nutrients needed to maintain strong joints and optimal health to avoid pain.

Fortunately, my phytonutrient proto-cols give your body the critical nutrients it craves, thus removing the underlying cause of your pain.

And once your pain is gone, you’ll

have your life back—and you’ll again be able to enjoy all that life has to offer.

These protocols are based on the pio-neering work of Dr. Weston Price, who you’ll read about on page 51 of The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

He discovered that a certain type of nutrient-rich diet promotes resistance to disease, strong joints and bones, decay-resistant teeth and the ability to live a long, virtually pain-free life.

Building on the research of Dr. Price and others who followed in his footsteps, I’ve developed all-natural, phytonutrient-based protocols to help you find relief from almost any type of pain imaginable.

♦ ARTHRITIS PAIN: If you suffer from arthritis, you know how miserable

it can make your life…

…how hard it is to perform even the simplest tasks because your joints ache…

…and how it makes doing many of the things you love most almost impossible.

However, you don’t have to suffer if you follow the protocol detailed on page 54 of The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

It begins to end arthritis pain for most people in 30 days.

♦OSTEOPOROSIS: If you or a loved one suffer from osteoporosis, you’re prob-ably fearful about the future.

You may be experiencing crippling pain that’s indescribable to anyone. And it may seem like you just barely get by each and every day.

Big Pharma’s solution is a class of drugs called bisphosphonates that not only don’t cure osteoporosis, but can actually make things worse (see the article below).

The good news, you’ll find new hope in the pages of The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

If you suffer from osteoporosis, you’ll likely do just about anything to find relief. You might even consider the usu-al drugs prescribed for almost everyone with osteoporosis.

These drugs not only don’t cure osteoporosis, they can make things worse.

That’s because they prevent the natu-ral process that replaces old, brittle and diseased bone tissue with new, stronger, healthier bone.

You maintain bone density, but end up with bones that are brittle and sus-ceptible to fractures.

Your hip fractures without warningThe Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma

(May/June 2008) reported cases of women who suffered spontaneous hip fractures while walking or standing after taking Fosamax for more than 5 years.

Similar cases have been reported in other medical journals, including the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metab-olism (in 2005) and The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery (in 2007).

And if all that weren’t enough to stop you from taking these drugs, be sure to read about the jawbone osteonecrosis side effect on page 58 of The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

Why osteoporosis drugs do more harm than good

artHritis, osteoporosis anD painkillers

The secret to a pain-free life!

The phytonutrients you’ll discover in The 45-Day Health Turnaround can help you live pain free, so you can once again enjoy all that life has to offer.

Osteoporosis drugs not only don’t cure osteoporosis but can actually make the condition worse.

“I’ve developed all-natural, phytonutrient-

based protocols to help you find relief from

almost any type of pain imaginable.”

Key Findings: Painkillers mask pain, but don’t

cure the underlying cause of your pain.

Most joint pain does not come from your bones.

Most arthroscopic surgeries for an arthritic knee are no more helpful than sham (fake) sur-geries.

Osteoporosis drugs are a dead end, and most should be avoid-ed because of their serious side effects.

www.HealthAlertUpdate.com

HEALTH NEWS 7If you’re suffering from osteoporosis,

and are desperate to find a cure, be sure to read the startling information begin-ning on page 58 in The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

♦JOINT PAIN often leads doctors to recommend surgery…

If that’s what your doctor suggests, then first try the simple treatment proto-cols you’ll find in The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

Chances are your pain will begin to disappear in as little as 30 days, elimi-nating the need for surgery and the potential irreversible damage that even “simple” outpatient procedures can cause.

♦SINUS PAIN afflicts an astound-ingly high percentage of the population. For some people, it’s seasonal, but for oth-ers it’s constant agony.

If either variety is making life miser-able for you or a loved one, you should know about the antimicrobial nasal spray I wrote about in the January 2011 issue of Health Alert.

It contains a proprietary mixture that begins killing bacteria, viruses and even fungus with the very first spray.

Antibiotics have no effect on viruses and fungus and can permanently damage your gut and immune system.

My treatment attacks the bugs precise-ly where they wreak havoc, in your sinus-es and throat. And it’s not habit forming.

♦ARM, NECK AND HAND PAIN (including “carpal tunnel syndrome”): If you suffer from any of these afflictions, rarely will a drug or even surgery help you find relief.

That’s because your pain is primarily caused by pinched, trapped and irritated nerves.

Nothing short of unpinching the nerves will end your pain.

This can’t be done with drugs and surgery. But on page 64 of The 45-Day Health Turnaround, you’ll learn about a simple type of therapy that often pro-duces instant results!

Hundreds of thousands of arthro-scopic knee surgeries have been per-formed in the past few years, most on an outpatient basis.

They may be moneymakers for sur-geons and hospitals, but a 2002 study proved they’re medically useless for arthritic patients.

Half the participants in the study received a standard arthroscopic knee procedure. The other half had an incision made, but no actual procedure was per-formed.

The outcome for both groups was nearly identical, meaning the actual procedure was no better than a placebo.

Pain’s gone—surgery no longer needed!DELAWARE—“I am an 82-year-old woman who has had severe arthritis in the knees, for years. Recently, the pain became so severe in both knees that I could not walk. An orthopedist informed me that I needed a partial

knee replacement due to bone-on-bone.

“Before my surgery, I heard of Dr. West and subscribed to his newsletter. I imme-diately stopped eating all foods that he said were pain triggers for arthritis. After 48 hours, my pain was 75% gone. I can-celled the surgery, and I am now free of pain and walking again.

“Dr. West, another remarkable thing has happened. After taking your Glucos-amine Synergy capsules for 6 weeks, the large amount of swelling in my knee has simply disappeared. I had this swelling for over 10 years! Thank you!”

—Carolyn Deutsch, Delaware

At last, you can say goodbye to the pain that has haunted you for so long with the phytonutrient therapies you’ll discover in your FREE copy of The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

OHIO—“I had extremely pain-ful knees. They ached all the t i m e , a n d I could not get up and down the stairs. Since following your recommenda-tions, my knees are great. I have no more trou-ble walking or

going up and down stairs. And my knees are actually still improving! I no longer take any pain medicine whatsoever.

“I discard nearly all the ads I get in the mail. But I am so thankful that I answered the one for Health Alert. I don’t even want to think about what I would be going through had I mentioned my knee pain to a conventional doctor.

The real truth about knee procedures

♦BACK, RIB AND TORSO PAIN: Often your doctor can’t help you find relief because he or she doesn’t have any idea what’s causing your pain.

The problem is often something that millions of people experience each year: rib subluxation or movement.

The ribs become dislodged at their con-nection to the spine or breastbone or both. This inflames the cartilage and can result in the pinched nerves that lie immediately below the ribs.

If you experience pain, you could go to your family doctor (who probably doesn’t know that ribs subluxate) and you’ll be

subjected to x-rays and possibly an MRI (which won’t show anything).

Or you could try the treatment revealed on page 71 of The 45-Day Health Turn-around and get overnight pain relief.

Regardless of what type of pain you suffer from now, you’ll find the relief you crave in the pages of The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

I f you suffer from digestive problems, you may think that excess stomach acid is to blame.

And that’s understandable given the millions of dollars spent to advertise both over-the-counter and prescription antacids.

But the truth is that many digestive problems are the result of too little stom-ach acid, not too much.

In fact, for more than half of all Ameri-can heartburn sufferers over age 50, their heartburn is caused by insufficient stom-ach acid.

If you have insufficient stomach acid, the food you eat isn’t being fully digested. And this undigested food literally rots in your stomach leading to a wide range of problems that go far beyond indigestion.

When your FREE copy of The 45-Day Health Turnaround arrives, turn to page 81 where you’ll find a simple way to deter-mine whether you have too little stomach acid.

A healthy digestive system: Critical to your

good healthYou’ll find this crucial information to

be invaluable because of the critical role your digestive system plays in your over-all health.

You see, your intestines are lined with a thick layer of bacteria (called your “flo-ra”), which, among other things, helps you properly utilize what you eat.

Your flora is critical to a healthy immune system, and if it becomes dam-aged or altered, this opens the door to a

wide range of medical problems, many of which appear to have nothing to do with your gut (which is why they’re frequently misdiagnosed).

The hidden cause of multiple health problemsFor example, if you suffer from dam-

aged or altered flora, you leave yourself wide open to…

◆ Skin problems◆ Chronic pain◆ Immune weakness and disease◆ Emotional and psychological

problems◆ Chronic weakness, fatigue and

exhaustion

If you’ve been unable to find relief from any of these conditions, damaged intestinal flora may be to blame—damage caused by too little stomach acid, overuse of antibiotics or a poor diet.

Proven help for all your digestive problems

In your FREE copy of The 45-Day Health Turnaround, you’ll get the answers you need to restore your intes-

tinal flora to optimal health—something that may well help rid you of many of your nagging health problems.

You’ll discover:

■ How to end chronic gallbladder pain, nausea and vomiting—without sur-gery or drugs (see page 94).

■ About 80% of gallbladder surgeries can be avoided with the use of beta-ine, a phytonutrient found in beets. It all begins with a 10-day gallbladder cleanse (see page 81).

■ The easy 1-week cure for indiges-tion. It’s based on dietary changes. No drugs. No doctor visits, screenings or tests. This is completely safe and effec-tive for most people (see page 83).

■ Nature’s “fire extinguisher” that pro-vides quick relief for people with ulcers, gastritis, colitis, food poison-ing or a sour stomach. Depending on your particular circumstances, you can expect the start of relief in as little as 48 hours (see page 108).

You can end the needless suffering caused by too little stomach acid, dam-aged flora and the digestive problems they bring—without taking dangerous drugs. Just follow the protocols you’ll find in The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

They’ve already been proven effective by thousands of people like you.

Phytonutrients are to ordinary supple-ments what a fighter jet is to a biplane.

These naturally occurring phytochemi-cals are found in plants and are extracted using a painstaking patented process that concentrates the nutrients.

But unlike ordinary supplements, phytonutrients also contain all the “helper” compounds that accompany the nutrient in its natural state.

Research over the years has conclu-sively proven that these “helpers” (which include enzymes, co-enzymes and trace mineral activators) allow the human body to absorb and utilize the nutrients instead of excreting them.

Your body typically excretes as much as 95% of the nutrients in a store-bought supplement.

But with phytonutrient-based supple-ments, your body utilizes more than 95% of the nutrients.

First with heart patients, then...

I initially used phytonutrients with heart patients who came to me in despera-tion after being told to get their affairs in order.

And I cured them, much to the amaze-

ment of their own doctors.

Recognizing the tremendous heal-ing power of phytonutrients, I began to develop specific protocols for people suffering from a variety of medical conditions.

I learned something from each patient I treated, allowing me to refine my treat-

ment protocols to make them work faster and more effectively. (Remember, one of the principles of pragmatic medicine is to use what actually works.)

“The amazing healing power of phytonutrients”

From serious heart problems to GOLD MEDAL WINNER at the Rocky Mountain Senior Games

C O L O R A D O —“Before I began your phytonutri-ent protocol, and after five hospital admissions, my physicians were unable to help me with a deteriorat-ing cardiovascular condition. Because of the drugs pre-

scribed, I suffered two ministrokes. I had angioplasty and a Teflon® coated stint installed—all to no avail.

“When I started your protocol, I could not walk a block without chest pain and weakness and was having heart ‘events’ regularly.

“Since beginning your protocol 2½ years ago, I have had no cardiovascu-lar events. I have a new lease on life. I have competed in the Rocky Mountain Senior Games and won gold medals 2 years in a row. Thank you.”

“My active lifestyle has returned and I feel great!”

CALIFORNIA—“I am 76 years old and was dia-gnosed with ven-tricular tachycar-dia. After an in- tensive series of heart tests, my cardiologist told me that I should get my affairs in order and stop

driving. I led an active life, and I was not ready to die or become a cardiac invalid,

as had happened to a number of my friends.

“I contacted you and submitted my Symptom Survey. Soon I received your personalized Health Alert protocol rec-ommendations.

“I started, and my last visit to my car-diologist revealed test results that pleased everyone. My active lifestyle has returned and I feel great! I can do a hard 2-mile walk, with half uphill, with no ill effects.”

—A. T. Isaacson, California

TEXAS—“I am almost 84 years old, and I have been ill for over 14 years. I had a massive stroke, 5 heart attacks, stints in my chest, cancer, and more che-mo than any human being should ever be

given. The chemo destroyed my stom-ach, and I suffered vomiting, diarrhea, passing out, and finally total collapse.

I swallowed the endoscopy camera into my stomach, had internal bleeding and lived on soup and cream of wheat for 8 years! Finally I wrote to Dr. West and asked for help. Within days I was feeling better, and began to eat again. Within weeks, I was eating dairy, fruits, nuts and all kinds of vegetables.

“I feel so much better, and it is won-derful to be able to eat. Thank God for doctors like Dr. Bruce West. Thank you again Dr. West. You do not know how wonderful it is to eat until you have lived on soup and cream of wheat for 8 years! You are truly a wonderful doctor.”

I f you or a loved one suffer from Type 2 Diabetes, and are worried about the inevitable health problems it can lead

to, then you’re going to love the power-ful protocol revealed in the pages of The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

It’s a three-pronged approach that will begin to work almost immediately to lower your blood sugar.

My protocol—which I’ve used to suc-cessfully treat more than 5,000 diabetic patients—combines…

◆ Phytonutrient therapy to replenish deficient nutrients needed for proper metabolism…

◆ Simple and easy dietary changes that don’t require you to eat strange, unap-petizing foods and…

◆ A simple, proprietary protocol that helps you remove sugar from your bloodstream. All to help you beat Type 2 Diabetes.

And if you don’t have diabetes, my pro-tocol will help ensure you or a loved one never get it.

The numbers are frightening

Taking action now to treat or prevent diabetes is absolutely crucial when you consider these two facts:

FACT #1: Two out of three people with diabetes die of a heart attack or stroke.

FACT #2: In the next 25 years, about 20%–30% of the American population is

expected to be diabetic.

To avoid becoming one of those sad statistics, you need to know…

The real cause of Type 2 Diabetes

The Medical Establishment’s latest theory is that Type 2 Diabetes is an autoimmune disease. According to this theory, the immune system attacks dying fat cells that accumulate in the obese, diabetic person.

This is nonsense! Many people with diabetes also have a weight problem, but millions of diabetics aren’t overweight at all.

A vicious cycleThe real culprit is the standard Ameri-

can diet, which contains foods that set off a vicious cycle that results in nutritional deficiencies and eventually diabetes and other health problems.

Here’s what happens…

Processed and low-fat foods cause your blood sugar to rise. This causes your insu-lin to increase. It also decreases a hormone that you need to burn fat for energy.

Without this hormone, you can’t burn fat and you become even more hungry, causing you to eat more processed foods. This causes a further rise in your blood sugar and insulin levels—ensuring that your vicious cycle continues.

The vicious cycle only ends when your pancreas finally gives out and you need daily insulin injections.

And because the whole process irri-tates blood vessel linings, you could end up developing coronary artery and heart disease as well.

How to beat Type 2 Diabetes

Once this vicious cycle has taken its toll on your pancreas, you have five options:

type 2 DiaBetes

“The Medical Establishment may say that’s not possible, but I have thousands of happy patients who prove that it is.”

End your Type 2 Diabetes in 45-90 days

You can beat diabetes when you tear out its dietary roots and follow Dr. Bruce West’s powerful healing protocol.

“I’m 71 years old and life is just beginning”WISCONSIN—“In February, I was d iagnosed w i t h d i a b e t e s . I was shaken and frightened because my mother and brother died from diabetes, and my younger sister also has it. My doctor wanted to start me on drugs.

“I told her that I wanted to try to cure it myself, and I sent you my lab results. You sent me a protocol in March, and I went back in for my checkup in Septem-ber. My results were amazing! My doctor could not believe how well I was doing. She kept saying, ‘keep doing what you are doing.’ At the end of my appoint-ment, she said, ‘I don’t need to see you until next year.’

“Thanks Dr. West. I’m 71 years old and life is just beginning!”

—Gloria Zertuche, Wisconsin

Drugs are not the answer to Type 2 Diabetes. Use my protocol to treat the underlying causes.

Key Findings: The chemistry of the standard

American diet sets off a vicious cycle that ends with diabetes.

Diabetes is linked to dozens of other problems, including heart disease, stroke and blindness.

Diabetes drugs don’t cure dia-betes and have been implicated in causing heart attacks and strokes.

actually cure it!”

◆ BAD CHOICE: You could take insulin for the rest of your life. This is expensive, inconvenient and potentially dangerous because of its life-threatening side effects. And insu-lin simply “controls” diabetes, it doesn’t cure it.

◆ DANGEROUS CHOICE: You could take Victoza®, but in 17 months, there have been 200 reports of Victoza users contracting acute pancreatitis, an extremely serious condition often requir-ing hospitalization and sometimes caus-ing death.

◆ EXPENSIVE CHOICE: You could buy the “diabetes supplements” sold on the Internet.

These cost pennies to produce, but sell for $50 or more. Unlike the phytonutrients I use in my practice, these concoctions aren’t made from whole foods.

And while these abominations excel at emptying your wallet, they won’t do a thing for your diabetes.

◆ BIZARRE CHOICE: In the July 2012 issue of Health Alert, I told readers about the Medical Establishment’s new-est “magic bullet” for diabetes: bariatric surgery to reduce your stomach size.

This is a profoundly stupid idea that won’t cure diabetes, costs a fortune and has side effects that often require addi-tional surgery.

Hospital Protection Checklist:8 ways you can protect yourself from the petri dish of bacteria growing in hospitals

Hospitals are never sterile. They are a breeding ground for infectious diseases. Protect yourself and your family.

Clip out and save this safety checklist. These are the same health tips used by Dr. Bruce West to help keep his family safe and protected from dangerous infections.

With out-of-control blood sugar, you are on a deadly downward medical spiral. Start to normalize your blood sugar now.

1. Stay at least 6 feet away from anyone coughing or sneezing.

2. Wear a mask (available in hospital supply stores) that covers your nose and mouth.

3. Avoid contact with doorknobs, hospital- supplied pens or any other item touched by other patients.

4. Do not set food or utensils on furniture or sheets.

5. If you have a dressing on a wound, immedi-ately tell a nurse if it becomes wet or loose.

6. If hair needs to be removed for surgery, use clippers instead of a razor to prevent nicks where bacteria could enter.

7. Wash your hands thoroughly and frequently.

8. Before anyone puts a stethoscope or other medical instrument on your body, ask that the surface that touches you be wiped with alcohol.

The 45-Day Health Turnaround and Survival Guide for the Age of Obamacare should help you stay out of the hospital. But if you are ever hospitalized, turn to Dr. West’s new Special Report, How to Stay Out of a Nursing Home.

F or close to a decade, Rodney Chaste tried conventional treatments for his deteriorating vision, but his eye-

sight continued to falter.

Like others suffering from age-related macular degeneration, he had been told that blindness would be the inevitable result of his condition.

So it’s not surprising that he was a des-perate, depressed man when he arrived at my office.

But his desperation soon turned to delight…

A medical miracleI started Rodney on phytonutrients,

and 4 months later, he could feel some-thing happening to his eyes.

Then, 6 months after starting the pro-tocol, he went to see his ophthalmologist.

His ophthalmologist was flabbergast-ed to discover that the yellow lumps on his eyeball (known as drusen) were dis-appearing. He told Rodney that he had

never seen anything like that in 30 years of practice.

The doctor continued to be amazed as Rodney’s vision first stabilized and then dramatically improved.

Today, 15 years later, Rodney still hasn’t gone blind as his doctor told him he would!

You don’t have to go blind, either

If your eyesight has begun to deterio-rate, and you fear losing it altogether, then

you need to take advantage of my phyto-nutrient protocols immediately.

After all, you won’t get anything like these results from conventional medicine.

You see, the Medical Establishment continues to insist that no cure exists for macular degeneration.

Those I’ve treated over the years would certainly disagree—especially since they’ve escaped the slow, painful road to blindness experienced by most victims of macular degeneration.

Results in just 30 days

These days, I use a treatment proto-col that’s even better than the one I pre-scribed for Rodney Chaste. It’s based on the research of one of the doctors on my Advisory Board.

After using my exclusive protocol, my patients have stunned their eye doc-tors—and the Medical Establishment

My unique formula of natural plant nutrients works at the cellular level to improve blood flow to the eye and opti-mize maintenance of cells. No drugs, no surgeries, no risks or side effects.

The photos on the previous page show the eyes of a patient suffering from wet macular degeneration, a particularly nas-ty version of the disease.

This patient used my new protocol. The left photo is before treatment and the right one is 6 months after treatment.

This patient, like most, started seeing results in about 30 days.

While it would be premature to say we’ve found a cure for macular degen-eration, I think it’s safe to say we have accomplished things that the Medical Establishment thought were impossible.

For more about my macular degenera-tion protocol, see page 171 in The 45-Day Health Turnaround.

Glaucoma control without drugs

As you age, your eyes are also at risk for glaucoma—the other major disease that causes blindness.

Glaucoma is an increase in the pres-sure inside your eyeballs. And if you’re diagnosed with it, your doctor will usually prescribe either eyedrops or surgery. Both are expensive and come with a number of side effects.

The side effects of prescription eye-drops include:

■ Chronic inflammation around your eyelashes

■ Low blood pressure■ Reduced pulse rate■ Shortness of breath■ Burning or stinging■ Fatigue and drowsiness

As you’ll discover in The 45-Day Health Turnaround, there’s a way you can bring eye pressure back to normal without resorting to prescription drugs or surgery.

It doesn’t work for everyone, but it’s successful for 70%–80% of the people who try it.

My approach is not only less expensive than drugs or surgery, it’s safer. I don’t know of a single person who experienced a negative side effect!

Aging of the eyes—known as macular degeneration—can lead to severe vision problems, including blurry vision, bleed-ing in the eyes and even blindness. Main-stream doctors will tell you this disease is “medically incurable” and usually pro-gresses toward the total loss of sight.

Glaucoma, the result of elevated pressure in the eyes, is another threat. This buildup of fluid and pressure can cause blind spots in the central and peripheral vision—and damage the optic nerve.

Doctors typically prescribe drugs in the form of eye drops, which can cause cardiac arrhythmias, fainting and more.

Many eye drops even contain toxic preservatives, like benzalkonium chlo-ride, that can actually damage your eye tissue with long-term use.

What’s more, nutritional supplement peddlers will tell you that vitamins A and E are all you need. The truth is your eyes do need those nutrients, but they’re not enough to maintain or improve your vision.

If you’re suffering from macular degeneration, Dr. West recommends a specific phytonutrient protocol that can help you stabilize or even improve

your vision. And glaucoma patients can reduce their eye pressure with carbamide.

Simple solutions to better vision

I ’m blowing the whistle on one of the Medical Establishment’s most disgrace-ful scandals: The shocking number of

injuries, painful afflictions and even deaths caused by physicians and their treatments.

It’s a scandal that could cost you your health and even your life.

And in your FREE copy of The 45-Day Health Turnaround, I’ll show you how to protect yourself from this dire threat to your health.

The staggering statistics show how real this threat is:

■ FACT: You have a 50% chance of being at least partially misdiagnosed in a hospital. And that statistic comes right out of the Journal of the American Medical Association (Vol. 258, No. 3).

■ FACT: More than 200,000 Americans die each year from properly prescribed drugs.

When you add in the hundreds of thousands who die from improperly pre-scribed drugs, you begin to understand the massive scope of needless deaths every year!

■ FACT: Each year, over 90,000 people die from a serious infection contract-ed in a hospital. Flesh-eating bacteria make the headlines, but you can con-tract more than a dozen serious infec-tions in a place that’s supposed to help you get better, but often makes you sicker.

■ FACT: An estimated 90,000 people each year are either permanently disabled or killed from surgical procedures gone horribly wrong. And remarkably, an estimated 7,000 of those procedures were completely unnecessary.

The biggest danger to your health!

Worse yet, the Medical Establishment has now concocted a fresh new way to endanger your health.

It’s those seemingly “harmless” medical screenings that are so popular right now. They’re among the leading causes of injury and death by physicians. (See John English’s sad, but eye-opening story, in the accompa-nying sidebar.)

These tests are notoriously inaccurate

and, statistically, do nothing to prolong life.

Your doctor might insist that scans and screenings are good preventive medicine, but the facts say otherwise…

■ FACT: Half of the people who submit to a spinal scan are told they have bulging discs, even though they have no history of back pain.

■ FACT: About 40% of people with no knee problems are (mis)diagnosed with meniscus damage because of a faulty scan.

■ FACT: Cancer screenings cause millions of people to be diagnosed with cancer that would never cause harm in their lifetime. Many of them are subjected to chemotherapy, radiation and even sur-gery—all for nothing!

■ THE BOTTOM LINE: Medical scans and screenings routinely lead to “overdi-agnosis,” or finding problems that don’t really exist (which are then “treated” with toxic drugs or dangerous surgery).

Is your doctor making you sick?

Three Dartmouth professors, all physi-cians, summed things up in their recent book, Overdiagnosed: Making People Sick in the Pursuit of Health…

“Overdiagnosis has led millions of peo-ple to become patients unnecessarily, to be made anxious about their health, to be treated needlessly and to bear the associated inconvenience and financial burden.”

“But there are steps you can take to protect yourself.”

You have a 50% chance of being misdiagnosed

John English underwent a free pros-tate screening offered by his local hos-pital as part of Prostate Cancer Aware-ness Week. He became a nervous wreck when the PSA test came back with a 4.3 reading.

He underwent 20 painful biopsy punches, which disclosed he had a small, nonaggressive cancer. This led to an unnec-essary radical prostatectomy (removal of the prostate gland) that left John impotent and in diapers.

A follow-up test showed his PSA was once again rising, which according to John’s doctor, meant a piece of cancerous prostate tissue had been left behind. So John underwent radiation therapy, which burned a hole through his rectum and bladder.

That led to a colostomy (removal of the colon). He was scheduled to have his bladder removed as well, but before they could operate, John died of sepsis caused by a bladder infection.

According to the death certificate, John officially died of a urinary tract infection. But in reality, he died from a free medical screening that he didn’t really need, which led to cancer treat-ments that he also didn’t need.

You see, John would have died from natural causes long before his nonaggres-sive cancer became a problem!

The secrets revealed in your FREE copy of The 45-Day Health Turn-around will help you avoid the over-diagnosis and overtreatment that tragi-cally cost John English his life. See page 19 for all the details.

You can beat virtually ANY ailment without toxic drugs or surgeryWhen you suffer from any kind of

medical condition, the key to a cure is to focus on resolving the

underlying medical condition that’s caus-ing your symptoms. As I explained on page 3, this is one of the basic principles of prag-matic medicine.

Conventional medicine, on the other hand,

usually focuses on your symptoms...

For example, if you go to your doctor with a skin problem like a rash, he or she will probably prescribe a salve to allevi-ate the itching, redness or other symp-toms. And although the symptoms might go away, the cause of those symptoms remains untreated, meaning your agony will soon return.

However, you’ll discover on page 123 of The 45-Day Health Turnaround that you can cure even a severe skin problem like non-melanoma skin cancer in 2 or 3 months using a naturally occurring phy-tonutrient found in eggplant.

The same principle of focusing on the underlying cause of your condition rather the symptoms has allowed me to success-fully help people with a wide range of medical conditions:

■ SLEEP APNEA/SNORING. Instead of sleeping with a CPAP oxygen mask, try this safe herbal remedy that often works in as little as 14 days!

■ VERTIGO. When your FREE copy of The 45-Day Health Turnaround

■ INSOMNIA. In the October 2012 issue of Health Alert, I told readers about an extremely effective, but safe, treatment with an 80-year track record (see page 156).

■ DERMATITIS/ECZEMA. Once you know the three underlying causes, you can solve skin problems 99% of the time, without drugs or skin products (see page 153).

■ CRAMPS/RESTLESS LEG SYN-DROME. As you’ll discover in The 45-Day Health Turnaround (page 45), get enough of the “missing nutritional middleman” and you could get relief overnight.

Problem gone in just 6 weeks!VIRGINIA—“I want to thank you for giving me the solu-tions to getting rid of my hives. They had been breaking out on me for 6 months, and I had tried every-thing I knew to do until I received your brochures in the mail about your nat-ural ways of healing.

“I wrote to you about it and received your directions as to what to do.

“I did what you said and within 6 weeks, they were gone. I have not had the hives since! I am still taking your phyto-nutrients and I am feeling very well.”

—Lois Minter, Virginia

S O U T H DAKOTA—“I am a 92-year-old man who about 10 years ago began hav-ing irregular heartbeats. It kept getting worse until I could not even put my shoes on. I was told I had terminal congestive heart failure. My cardiologist told me that my heart was huge. He implanted a pacemaker/defibrillator, which did no good.

“This is about the time I heard about you. After using your heart protocol, I felt so much better and went back to my cardiologist. To my shock, he told me the exciting news—that my heart was now back to NORMAL! And I have been doing great ever since.”

—Don Tabor, South Dakota

My heart is now back to normal

Breakthrough Phytonutrient Protocols for People with…

Medical breakthroughs for people with more than 100 health problems—all without toxic

drugs or dangerous surgery. See page 3

Dr. Bruce West is a medical pioneer well-known for combining the best of tra-

ditional medicine with new break-throughs in natural healing.

His secret is the clinical use of natural extracts and phytochemi-cals—naturally occurring com-pounds found in fruits, vegetables and other living things.

Unlike vitamins and supple-ments, phytochemicals (also called phytonutrients—see page 9) are created from a wide variety of organic, nutrient-rich foods.

Over the course of more than three decades, Dr. West and his phytonutrient protocols have been credited with one health break-through after another.

Perfected over the past 35 years, these treatment protocols have helped tens of thousands of people

suffering from…

n Heart conditions ........page 4

n Chronic pain ...............page 6

n Digestive distress .......page 8

n Type 2 Diabetes ........page 10

n Glaucoma ..................page 12

n Much more ................page 15

Central to his phenomenal suc-cess is the pragmatic idea that “to get well you have to treat the underlying cause of the problem, not just the symptoms.”

These phytonutrient treatment protocols are now being used by an increasing number of physi-cians around the world, including many of the 25,000+ doctors who subscribe to Dr. West’s newslet-ter, Health Alert, the world’s old-est continuously published health newsletter.

Already over 90,000 people have conquered a wide variety of medical
