Health Lecture Series

Dear Patient,

As a new patient to the Universal City Medical Wellness Group, we urge you to view our upcoming health lecture series.

We consider getting informed about your body and your problems to be a very essential part of your treatment.

I have found that patients who are educated actually have speedier recoveries, because they understand and help themselves to get well. They also gain knowledge to prevent future problems.

There are seven different topics in this upcoming series. Total Health is the first and is important to all of our patients. In this health talk we cover methods to reverse almost any illness and how to avoid the most dangerous health mistakes. Vital information on the health of your nerve system and spine is covered.

Next is Gland and Hormonal Balance. We address the natural correction of gland disorders (thyroid, adrendal, ovaries, testes, etc.), how glands are balanced and how to restore them when they're in trouble.

The third talk is Energy, Blood Sugar and the Zone. In this universally needed workshop, we cover the surprisingly broad effects of low blood sugar on health, nutritional breakthroughs for energy regeneration, and the newest research on how to eat for health and "The Zone."

Our Chiropractor, Dr. Xuan Diep

Dr. Xuan Diep, DC

Dr. Xuan Diep (pronounced Swan Depp) grew up in Southern California and was one of a select group of students to win a scholarship to the University Of
Southern California (USC) for his excellence in research and to be accepted to the accelerated six-year Pharmacy Doctorate program.

A serious car accident turned his world upside down. Neither of the drivers involved (he was a passenger) had insurance and consequently he did not seek medical attention immediately. His physical and mental capacity diminished and pain medication seemed the only relief for his back pain and insomnia.

A second car accident, this one covered by a strong insurance plan, got his attention. He received chiropractic care and an education about the intricate link between the body and the nervous system. With renewed hope and gratitude, he decided to commit his life to helping others through chiropractic.

He graduated from the highly reputed Life West Chiropractic College in San Francisco, known for producing some of the best chiropractic doctors on the west coast, worked at several chiropractic clinics, but didn't find his true inspiration until he discovered UCMG. Impressed by the thorough and holistic approach, he began rigorous training with Dr.Gordin, and is now a trusted doctor and member of the Universal City chiropractic team.

During off hours, you'll find Dr. Diep playing basketball and volleyball, reading at the Barnes and Noble bookstore in Pasadena, and watching football, basketball or baseball games with his friends.

We're Glad you're here. Our goal is to provide the best health service you have ever had.

Whether your problem is a new injury or a chronic illness, we want to help you. You can expect us to use the most effective techniques in healing that can be found. Our orientation is to prefer natural approaches over drug or surgical methods. That way unnecessary side-effects and complications can be avoided.

We have an unusually broad range of health experience. You will probably be surprised at the wide range of patients we have served, and the different conditions that have been cured by our methods. The ages of our patients have spanned from 6 hours-old to 106 years-old. Some or all of our techniques will be new to you.

When we have our first consultation together, we'd like you to tell us what your chief health problem is. Because we view the relationships between differnt symptoms, we will prefer you to tell us about other health problems or illnesses as well. That way we can get to the bottom of things. You may be surprised by our thoroughness.

After consulting with you, if we believe we can help you, we will let you know. If not, we will let you know also.

We're looking forward to including you among our friends who have valued our contributions to their health.

The Doctors of U.C.M.W.G.

Canada Confirms Labeling of BPA “Toxic”"

Canadian Health Minister Tony Clement announced yesterday that Canada would ban bisphenol, also known as BPA, in baby bottles as well as asking formula makers to reduce leaching from cans, the Globe and Mail reports today.

This represents a tough stand on bottles but a fairly soft one on other products which affect infants and young children - sippy cups, utensils, tableware, pacifiers, and teethers. It suggests there may be no ffirm requirements for eliminating BPA from formula containers or glass baby food jar lids.

From the Mail:

Although the government doesn’t expect to formally ban polycarbonate baby bottles for another year, the use of the product is coming to a rapid end in Canada anyway.
Throughout the week, retailers across the country took the nearly unprecedented step of stripping their shelves of polycarbonate bottles used by infants and adults in the face of overwhelming consumer rejection of the product.
Canada on its own has never taken an international lead to ban the use of controversial substances. The move against bisphenol A, which is able to mimic the female hormone estrogen, is being compared with decisions made by the United States and other countries more than 30 years ago to curb the use of the insecticide DDT - the first major chemical challenged on public health and environmental grounds
