JOHN PARKS TROWBRIDGE M.D. FACAM

        Scientist Adviser

Dr. John Parks Trowbridge attended Stanford University as a National Merit Scholar and California State Scholar, graduating in 1970 with an A. B. degree in Biological Sciences. After training in medical laboratory technology, he attended the School of Medicine at Case Western Reserve University, finishing in 1976 with an M. D. degree. After a general surgery internship at Mt. Zion Hospital and Medical Center in San Francisco, he briefly studied urological surgery at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center in the Texas Medical Center in Houston. In 1979, he started a general medical practice in Humble, a Houston suburb. By 1981, Dr. Trowbridge was turning to the study of how nutritional changes – with supplements and diet – could improve the condition of patients with chronic degenerative diseases ..... the ones for which operations provide little relief, the ones for which medications are needed for years, the ones that finally kill people after years of suffering.

In 1985, he was awarded a Diplomate in Preventive Medicine by the Medical Research Institute of the Florida Institute of Technology for graduate studies in nutrition. Dr. Trowbridge became certified as a specialist in the removal of toxic heavy metals by the American Board of Chelation Therapy in 1985 and by the (now defunct) American Board of Biologic Reconstructive Therapy (arthritis and pain medicine) in 1993; he served as an examiner for both boards. He served as director and officer of the American College for Advancement in Medicine (1984 - 1991) and was awarded recognition as a Fellow of the College in 1991.

Dr. Trowbridge also served as chairman of the board of governors of the National Health Federation in 1989 and as president of the Great Lakes College of Clinical Medicine (GLCCM) in 1995. From 1996 through 1998, Dr. Trowbridge was program chair for the advanced chelation training seminars in Heavy Metal Toxicology: Diagnosis and Treatment. In 2000, he was re-elected to the board of directors of GLCCM and appointed editor of their newsletter; in 2001, the society changed its name to the International College of Integrative Medicine (ICIM). In 1995, he was appointed to the Medical Advisory Board of the Arthritis Trust, having become skilled in using this specialized treatment program in his practice since 1983.

More recent studies have involved "anti-aging" and life-enhancing technologies, to "add life to your years as well as years to your life." Popular as a public speaker and radio/TV guest, in 1990 he hosted his own nationally-syndicated radio talk show "Finally Feeling Better." Of his several published articles, one dealing with life’s stresses for the Rotarian Magazine was reprinted in several languages. In 1980 - 81, he published one of the first "health newsletters," called The Company Doc. His many accomplishments are recognized in listings in over 3 dozen volumes of "Who’s Who ---," including Who’s Who in America, Who’s Who in the World, Who’s Who in Science and Engineering, Who’s Who in Medicine and Healthcare. Among his several books are three bestsellers: Bantam Books’ million-copy-plus The Yeast Syndrome (1986), Chelation Therapy (1985), and Do What You Want To Do (1996). A unique "book-on-tape" on chelation therapy, titled LIVING WELL PAST 50: Rejuvenate Your Heart and Arteries, was released in 1988, featuring 3 hours of patient interviews and "plain English"explanations of the chelation program. The Rumble in Humble: Heart Surgery and All that JAZZ!, published in 1997, reviewed diagnostic and treatment issues in the modern treatment of heart and blood vessel diseases, including "alternative" or "complementary" approaches. His newest book, anticipated publication date late 2002, covers innovative and effective treatment strategies for those suffering with chronic headaches (including migraines) & emphasizing the use of "NCR," neuro-cranial restructuring, a remarkable technique to rebalance skeletal posture.

At the LIFE CENTER HOUSTON medical office, near the Bush Intercontinental Airport in Humble, Dr. Trowbridge focuses on helping "people to get out of their pain and get on with their life." He encourages inquiries from people suffering with long-standing degenerative diseases (requiring continuing medication or repeated operations), unusual illness problems, and those limited by or suffering with headaches, neck pains, low back pains, and other joint injuries or diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis and other "immune system" diseases.
