Thanks for lining up at the door just waiting to get into this next edition of my newsletter. It raises the bar on the meaning of being “jam packed” with information. You’ll learn about some upcoming Q&A; learn how a mysterious aspect of normal physiology led me to uncover some unique therapies to support lung health and function; learn about an app I’m developing; get warned about the next public health scare; and more; and of course there are some offers and specials sprinkled throughout.

Enhance Lung Health: Surfactant, Nanobubbles & Better Breathing

April 6, 2026 - Greg Nigh

There’s something I have found curious and you can experience it for yourself with a quick experiment: Take a deep breath and hold it. Hold it as long as you feel like you can hold it without causing any panic for yourself. Then, instead of pushing the air out quickly and breathing in to get more air, let the air out slowly and even swallowing a time or two as you are exhaling. When I do this, at the moment I start exhaling I am feeling like I’m at the very end of how long I can maintain without breathing in. But as I slowly breath out – and for some reason especially when I swallow a time or two as I’m breathing out – it extends how long I can last without breathing back in. Often, once I’ve breathed all the way out, I can hold my breath out for another 5-10 seconds before I need to breath in again. So, when I first started breathing out I was at my limit of holding my breath; upon slowly breathing out I somehow extend how long I can wait until I need to breathe in again. Why would breathing out relieve my urgent need to breath in?

April Q&A Session

At the end of January I hosted a Zoom-based Q&A session for anyone who wanted to sign up. I was concerned that we might not fill the scheduled 90 minutes, but in fact it was a fun conversation with all attendees that easily stretched to the end of our time.

The next session will be Sunday, April 26 at 7pm Eastern/4pm Pacific. The format is “ask me anything,” just don’t ask about your personal treatment plan. I won’t have charts in front of me and the goal is to fill the time with questions/answers that have some educational value for everyone in attendance.

The cost is $30/household (bring the whole family in for the same price). If you want to join the session send an email to info_drnigh@gregnigh.com with “April Video” in the subject line. You can also register by calling 503-719-4806. Lisa will be in touch. On the day of the event you will receive a link that gets you in.

BA.3.2 COVID variant media scare and data comparison

New BA.3.2 Variant: Understanding Risk vs Panic

April 6, 2026 - Greg Nigh

The CDC is warning about a new COVID variant called BA.3.2—“highly mutated,” “escaping immunity,” “ramping up.” But deep in the reports: no evidence it causes more severe disease or hospitalizations. This article takes a closer look at what we know, what remains speculative, and why fear has become a public health tool.

Online reviews and testimonials, marketing-savvy people tell me, are the bread and butter of growing a business, especially a business like mine that is conducted entirely online.

I have resisted requesting them for years because there is an ick factor about it that I just can’t shake. But my excellent marketing guy assures me it will greatly extend my online reach.

How You Can Help

If you have something you are willing to say about how you have been helped through your work with me, anonymously or not, please follow the link below and write a brief description of your experience.

It could be a full testimonial about your health improvements, a brief comment about your general experience of working with me as your doctor, or even just clicking one of the 5 stars offered to rate your experience.

Glowing electrical charge in bones and connective tissue during stretching

Rebuild Your Bones in Minutes: Stretching to Recharge Your Battery

March 2, 2026 - Greg Nigh

The piezoelectric effect is a property of crystals and many crystalline materials. In short, in is the phenomenon whereby, when a mechanical force is applied to a crystal causing it to bend, the crystal generates an electrical impulse. Quartz watches are a familiar example. A very small electric current, supplied by the watch battery, causes the small quartz crystal inside to bend ever-so-slightly thousands of times each second – 32,768 times per second, to be exact. With each bend the watch generates an electrical pulse due to the piezoelectric effect occurring in the quartz. Seconds are measured by counting up each interval of 32,768 pulses. The matrix of hydrated minerals within our bones – calcium, phosphorus, boron, zinc, magnesium, and others – exists as what is referred to as a crystalline structure. It is not arranged with the atomic regularity of inorganic crystals such as salt or quartz. Nevertheless, the minerals are that bone that its crystalline structure imparts properties to it that maintain its health, such as facilitating ion exchange and optimizing the tradeoff between strength flexibility.

6-Week Deuterium Detox: 3-Step Blueprint to Supercharge Your Energy

March 2, 2026

I have written and spoken extensively about the importance of “deuterium management” for maintaining optimal health. Deuterium, for those new to the topic, is a non-radioactive isotope of hydrogen. It is scattered throughout the universe and can be found here on earth anywhere you might find hydrogen, namely in our food and our water. To manage deuterium means, at the most general level, lowering the deuterium content of the body while simultaneously enhancing the storage of the deuterium that remains.…

Epstein Files Shed New Light on COVID-19 Governance: Key Findings You Should Know

March 2, 2026

Nothing in this article is hearsay or speculation. Anyone can now access the full repository of the Epstein Files, ask questions about what’s in those files, and get detailed answers that link to the specific emails, documents, and text messages that answer those questions. In fact everyone should do this, because what those communications between very wealthy/powerful individuals reveal about global governance is shocking, to say the very least. Sayer Ji is the founder of the alternative health information site…

Nicotine: A Surprising Therapeutic Molecule

Nicotine is not a substance many would associate with better health. We have been thoroughly trained to associate nicotine with tobacco, tobacco with smoking, and smoking with all kinds of health problems. It will come as a surprise to most people, I suspect, to learn that in fact there is a large body of literature on the therapeutic aspects of nicotine as a therapy. Signaling molecules in the body do their work by binding to receptors that sit on the…

Follow Me on X

If you aren't following me on X, here is just a small sample of the kind of information you are missing out on:

After trying out a few other social media outlets I landed on X (I’m not going to make the obligatory comment that X was formally known as Twitter, because everyone knows that by now). I continue to post on a regular basis about lots of topics that interest me, from medicine and health, to cosmology, evolutionary theory, genetics, and maybe once in a while even politics. Follow me there if you want to learn what I’m finding interesting or significant in the medical world, and to occasionally be challenged to think about some things differently along the way: https://x.com/gnigh
