Introduction to Dr. James A. Howenstine

Dr. James A. Howenstine is a board certified specialist in internal medicine who spent 34 years caring for office and hospital patients.

Curiosity sparked a 4 year study of natural health products when 5 of his patients with severe rheumatoid arthritis were able to discontinue the use of methotrexate (chemotherapy agent) after trying an extract of New Zealand mussels for the therapy of severe rheumatoid arthritis.

Dr. Howenstine is convinced that natural products are safer, more effective and less expensive than pharmaceutical drugs. This research led to the publication of his book 'A Physicians Guide To Natural Health Products That Work'. This book and the recommended health products are available from www.naturalhealthteam.com and by calling 1-800-416-2806 USA.

Research has convinced Dr. Howenstine that natural therapies have significant advantages over pharmaceutical drugs:

• Because they are derived from natural sources, these substances are easier for the body to assimilate and metabolize than are pharmaceutical drugs. All drugs break down into acid residues that the body must dispose of.
• Natural therapies appear to be more effective than drugs in resolving health problems, and there is often a safe natural solution to a problem no pharmaceutical drug can help.
• Natural therapies generally have fewer and milder side effects than pharmaceutical drugs.
• These natural products are much less expensive than pharmaceutical drugs.

THERE ARE SAFE NATURAL THERAPIES FOR ALL MAJOR HEALTH PROBLEMS.

Dr. Howenstine is a board certified specialist in internal medicine who took care of hospital and office patients for 34 years. The Natural Health Team has individuals with computer and business skills to facilitate, coordinate, and help market both natural health products and the book, which we hope will open up new vistas for improved health care for many patients and persons who want to get well and stay that way. The book was written to be understood by lay people but Dr. Howenstine also hopes that the book will enable many physicians to grasp the exciting prospects that natural substances have to benefit their patients.

In the course of investigating many products, Dr. Howenstine selected several that he feels have great merit. One of them are our Precious Prills that are offered on his site. Most of the items offered on the Natural Health Team website are not readily available to the general public and only a few can be found in health food stores.
