My father, Nick Senior, was a loud, outspoken, and proud man, defined by his strong work ethic. As both a truck driver and tavern owner, he taught me the value of being successfully independent.
It’s been over eleven years since my father passed away. He was 80 years old when he died on the morning of November 17th, 2013, due to complications from high blood pressure and over 15 years on medication. With Father’s Day approaching on June 16, 2024, it feels like it was just yesterday.
My dad had been on several prescription drugs (for blood pressure and diabetes) and had an enlarged prostate for over 15 years. He and his wife, Marilee, trusted traditional doctors and pharmaceutical medicines. However, when he was prescribed Flomax for his prostate, his weight dropped rapidly, and he almost died.
I went to see him then; he was incoherent and fragile, barely able to speak. Working with a new anti-aging doctor in Paradise, California, I found a willing MD to help my father.
We switched him to a whole natural foods diet and added anti-aging bio-identical hormones, testosterone pellets, growth hormone peptides, Beta Thymosin, BP157, and a full spectrum of herbal supplements from delgadoprotocol.com to balance his hormones to youthful levels.
Our goal was simple: to move him away from the debilitating prescription drugs and the Western American diet.
Like my father, I was raised on processed foods and an animal protein-centered diet, influenced by the big food, dairy, egg, and meat industries. The truth was I suffered from high blood pressure and a stroke at just 21 years old.
I realized that advertising agencies promote this disease-causing lifestyle. We monitored my father closely, and improvements came quickly and significantly. He regained energy, mental clarity, healthy weight, and his joy.
His former doctors were surprised by his progress. On the proper diet, free from subsidized meals on wheels delivery of dairy and meat, my dad’s blood sugar and blood pressure normalized without the aid of prescription drugs.
Unfortunately, when you start trying to do the right thing late, it doesn’t always work out. The family had refused my intervention for years, mistakenly believing that his medical plan had his health needs under control. He lost over two decades of his health due to medical mismanagement.
The AMA journal and Dr. Cleaves Bennett, author of “In 12 Weeks You Can Control Your High Blood Pressure Without Drugs,” highlight that while blood pressure pills lower blood pressure to safe levels, they do not treat the underlying cause of the disease.
Though my father’s many children and grandchildren were thrilled to have him fully coherent in his last months, the stroke and aneurysm he had suffered were too much. We held his funeral on Sunday, November 24th, 2013, in Paradise, California.
I Miss You, Dad.
Anti-aging bioidentical hormones, functional medicine supplements, living a healthy lifestyle, and rejuvenative medicine (including stem cells and energy medicine) are essential. Doing everything right from the beginning is always the best course of action. There is hope for anyone, in any condition, but the sooner we do the right things, the better. I am sad that I lost my father, but I am grateful for the time I had with him.
If your father is still alive, celebrate his life. Help him take care of his health, and take care of your own as well. This way, he and you can live healthily and joyfully for many years to come.
