Dead Doctors Don’t Lie Book Databases 6 Data Science for Natural Medicines

Dead Doctors Don’t Lie Radio Databases Dr. Joel Wallach begins the show today discussing his "Seeing is Believing" CD. Telling the story of how the CD came to into being. At a lecture Dr. Wallach was giving a man asked him if the symptoms of macular degeneration can be reversed. Suddenly another man jumped and called Doc a liar. Saying I'm an eye doctor and once a person is blind they're blind. Doc challenged the man to give him 12 legally blind patients. The doctor brought him charts for 27 patients and said if you can get even two to see I will apologize. Ninety days later all 27 could now read and drive and only two needed glasses. So the doctor recorded his apology onto a CD. – – 7

Strategy We will outline 12 Meetups, one per month, for the next year, each featuring one of Dr. Wallach’s books, and invite two speakers for each, at least one in-person and the other can be one-remote to reduce travel expenses and time. We will find someone to host for free, like existing meetups, and mine participants from past meetings and conversations. As we gain momentum, we can add additional Meetups each month when members start to offer to provide help with the agendas. The Youngevity product business would happen as a result of the networking environment this provides, just like other Meetups help start new businesses. 11
