CAM Use Among Children

In December 2008, the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) and the National Center for Health Statistics (part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) released new findings on Americans’ use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). The findings are from the 2007 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), an annual in-person survey of Americans regarding their health- and illness-related experiences. The CAM section gathered information on 23,393 adults aged 18 years or older and 9,417 children aged 17 years and under. A similar CAM section was included in the 2002 NHIS, providing the opportunity to
examine trends in CAM use, too.

Dr. Amy Fletcher

Dr. Amy Fletcher writes about science and society full-time from Knoxville, Tennessee, since recently leaving academia, where she was associate professor of political science at the University of Canterbury. She taught in New Zealand since 2000, after earning her doctorate from the University of Georgia and as a stint as legislative aid on telecom and technology issues in Washington. As a scholar, Dr. Fletcher taught undergraduate and advanced courses that focused on the political history of medicine (19th - 21st century), psychiatry, neurotech, and specific issues such as deep brain stimulation and the cyborg. In her book De-Extinction and the Genomics Revolution: Life on Demand, she introduced the current "de-extinction" agenda with reference to Mary Shelley, galvanism, and the 19th century interest in "animal electricity" and vitalism. Look out for more on all these themes, plus deep dives into history and lives of inventor visionaries that she'll explore for readers in these pages.

Mr. Joshua Levitt

Journalist and Publisher of Resonant Frequency, Mr. Joshua Levitt is an experienced writer who came to the world of frequency after the modality saved his life. While Financial Times foreign correspondent and bureau chief, in Madrid, Spain, a trematode opisthorchis felineus, a.k.a. cat liver fluke, from an undercooked piece of fish began to tear through his liver, for decades impacting his skin and befuddling dermatologists, until finally diagnosed by the wonders of a Russian scientist's bioresonance machine, and was cured in an instant. Five years of research later, this knowledge brought forth this new magazine and the opening of the RF LAB. [LinkedIn]

Ms. Thornton Parsons

Thornton Parsons, born in the Deepest South of Jacksonville, FL, now of Catoosa County, GA, is a novelist and author known for the Lake Eerie mystery book series and the polemic "Jack A$$ Politics and Culture". The controversial book was published on Constitution Day, September 17, 2012, and soon ran afoul of the dark lords of libros who were told to keep it quiet for too much truth. Originals were on sale for $898 on Amazon, now sold out, but soon to be reissued as an e-book you could buy with a $2 bill. Ms. Parsons worked for many years as an English teacher and also as a journalist for radio; here she'll be writing historical narratives about the founders of this field of science and also giving less experienced writers kicks in their keesters if their commas get out of whack.

Dr. Savely Yurkovsky, MD

Dr. Savely Yurkovsky, MD, is an internationally known author and teacher with an extensive background in the scientific principles behind the alternative and conventional approach.Having realized that the primary source of health and disease, according to physics, stem from the corresponding cellular energy fields, he adopted a new revolutionary medical model, one that interfaces the theories of biology and physics, established by his mentor, Professor Emeritus of Materials Science, William A. Tiller, of Stanford University. His unique bio-energetic medical system integrates a great deal of pertinent but, until now, underused knowledge from medical and non-medical sciences, Dr. Yurkovsky has been able to transform the often vague nature of medical specialties from "hit and miss" paradigms into a far more effective, exact, and predictable science, and founded a teaching organization dedicated to sharing this medical system, Field Control Therapy and Guided Digital Medicine. He has been nominated for the prestigious Bravewell Leadership Award for "significant contributions to the field of medicine" and "compelling vision for the future of medicine." Dr. Yurkovsky received his MD degree in pediatrics is from the II Moscow State Medical Institute, USSR, in 1975, and completed his training in internal medicine and cardiology, in 1982 and 1984, respectively, at the Downstate University Medical School affiliated program, Coney Island Hospital, in Brooklyn, NY, and was an Assistant Professor of cardiology at the Winthrop University Hospital in Mineola, NY. www.yurkovsky.com
