Youngevity Web Site 3 Slide 4 What Is Dead Doctors Dont Lie? "Dead Doctors Don't Lie" was created by Dr. Joel Wallach after years of research on the subject of health and longevity. Wallach discovered that the life span of the average medical doctor in America is several years shorter than that of the average couch potato, which would surprise most people. Dr. Wallach began collecting obituaries of doctors only to find that many were dying of simple nutritional deficiencies, which he was finding could be easily prevented. If doctors really knew the truth about health and longevity they should be living longer than anyone else, not dying sooner than the average couch potato. This premature death pattern proves that doctors are missing some key elements of understanding what it takes to live a longer healthier life. Hence was born the title... "Dead Doctors Don't Lie". My Note: Dr. Wallach was a data scientist like me 4 Youngevity Web Site Slide 5 Highlights from Dead Doctors Don't Lie There are at least 5 groups of people in the world whose average life span exceeds 100 years. (Find out what they all have in common, it's not daily exercise!) Many major diseases have been eliminated in the livestock industry years ago by simple inexpensive nutritional supplementation. According to U.S. Senate Document #264, our farmlands have been depleted of essential minerals. This document dates back to 1936. There is no such thing as "Eating Right" because if the minerals aren't in the soil where the food is grown, they are not in our foods. Our bodies need no less than 90 essential nutrients. There are as many as 10 deficiency diseases that can result for each nutrient that is missing for any length of time. This is a total of up to 900 diseases that can be prevented with proper nutrition. 5 Youngevity Web Site Slide 6 Why 90 Essential Nutrients For Life 1? 6 90 For Life Web Site Slide 7 Why 90 Essential Nutrients For Life 2? 7 90 For Life Web Site Slide 8 How are 90 Essential Nutrients Important in 4 Categories of Health Challenges? 8 90 For Life Web Site Slide 9 Where is 90 for Life Youngevity? 9 90 For Life Web Site Slide 10 When Can I Learn More About This? 10 Slide 11 My Research Google Search Wikipedia Kaiser Permanente Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database Sacred Fire of Liberty Gala Database Dead Doctors Dont Lie Database 11 Slide 12 Google Search 12 Google Search Slide 13 Wikipedia 13 Wikipedia Slide 14 Kaiser Permanente 14 Private Web Site Slide 15 Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database 15 Web Site Slide 16 Sacred Fire of Liberty Gala Database 16 Web Player Slide 17 Dead Doctors Dont Lie Database 17 Dead Doctors Dont Lie Database Slide 18 Some Conclusions and Next Steps The Answers to the Six Journalistic Questions About Dr. Joel D Wallach and Youngevity are Available and Convincing. My Research Leads Me to Building a Knowledge Base that Can be Used to Build a Dead Doctors Dont Lie Database. My ultimate goal is a "grand data-driven discovery challenge" we have started to work on that would integrate Semantic Medline, JHU geonomic databases, and nutritional databases with Dr. Phil Bourne at NIH. 18
