* Burns, Wounds,
Ulcerations -
fast healing for open wounds and burns using Honey. (Manuka Honey is
very good). Make a gauze compress of vasoline petroleum jelly and
apply onto the skin around the wound or burn. Then, apply a layer of
honey over the open sore, wound, or burn and cover with gauze Clean
the area and change the dressing every two days. Faster healing &
minimal scarring. For open wounds and sores that do not heal well, you
can also use regular white sugar instead of honey. Cover the sore with
1/4 inch of sugar and cover with gauze. Clean the wound and change the
dressing every two days, repeating the process until healed. Sugar
creates an environment where bacteria cannot thrive. This method is
very simple but it is medically proven to work, many times as good or
better than anti-biotics. Also, bacteria such as MRSA cannot build up
an immunity to sugar.

ALS - amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
An
Italian medical study revealed that high doses of lithium carbonate
could delay the progression of ALS. Over the course of the 15 month
study, the ALS patients taking lithium showed little, if any
progression of their symptoms. The study was published in - Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 08;105:2052-2057
Lithium is known to protect nerve tissue in the brain and it can
actually stimulate increased growth of brain cells. It also has the
ability to remove some heavy metals, such as aluminum, from the body.
References - Neuroscience 03;117:55-61 and Neuropsychopharmacology
00;23(S2):S39 and Lancet 00;356:1241-1242. Supplemental lithium in low

Alzheimers and
Brain Health
Protecting the brain
against normal age-related decline, alzheimers, dementia, etc. While
there are no known cures for these conditions. A number of nutrients
& supplements have shown to produce improvements over a wide range
of cognitive functioning and can even slow down (sometimes dramatically)
various measures of mental deterioration. Alzheimers and Dementia
Patients need to work with an experienced, licensed medical practitioner
for proper diagnosis, testing, treatment, dosages, possible drug interactions
and follow-up evaluations. The items below
are only a simple list. Please do your own research or consult a
medical professional to determine the proper dosages and combining of various
supplements. The items listed are presented in a randomized order and not
in any particular order of importance or claims of effectiveness.
There are good brain support formulas available from many sources such

Alzheimer's Symptoms Reversed within MINUTES! - according to an article
in the Belfast Telegraph, researchers at the Institute for Neurological
Research at the University of California used an arthritis drug for an
off-label treatment of 50 alzheimers patients and an amazing 45 out of
50 showed a response....sometimes within minutes. In one dramatic case,
a patient who had not recognized his wife for several years, suddenly
recognized her. According to the wife, her husband is now coherent 90%
of the time. The drug is called - Etanercept. The common trade name is
- Enbrel. Read the original article here -
http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/health/article3603996.ece
Heavy Metal Toxicity - is a known risk factor for Alzheimers. There is
no reason to have heavy metal contamination in the brain with so many
good chelation products available - see our section on Heavy Metal removal supplements below.
Alzheimer's Cure?
Niacinamide - a form of vitamin B3 - exciting and ground-breaking research at the University of California, Irvine, has demonstrated a complete reversal of alzheimers
in MICE. Specially bred laboratory mice with the same clinical brain
condition of human alzheimers, were given 2,000 to 3,000mg. of
Niacinamide daily for only four months. (Important - this is NOT regular Niacin, which is different from Niacinamide).
They experienced a complete reversal of memory loss and performed as
well as normal mice on a series of tests. Niacinamide also improved the
memory of non-affected mice. While mice are not human, these same
effects may be possible in human alzheimers patients. These studies are
now under way with the same research team. They will be giving 1,500mg.
niacinamide two times per day with a test group and a placebo group.
Niacinamide is very inexpensive with few minor side effects in some
individuals (mild nausea) and these dosages are very low with no
toxicity. Some medical authorities recommend 1,000 milligram capsules
taken three times daily. One should look for formulas without
additives, colorants, preservatives, etc. Medical reference: JNeurosci
08;28:11500-11510 (journal of neuroscience).
Alzheimer's + Chlamydia
Pneumonia connection - found that 90% of Alzheimers
patients tested had brains infected with Chlamydia Pneumonia - a common
pathogen. The Herpes Simplex virus has also been isolated in the
brains of most Alzheimer's patients.
Flu Vaccine Alzheimers
connection - research shows a correlation
of higher rates of Alzheimers among patients who have received the common
Flu vaccination 5 years or more in a row. This may be due to the
mercury and aluminum toxic metals used as preservatives in the vaccines.
Many prominent medical doctors now claim that Flu shots are totally worthless
- http://www.whale.to/v/quotes3.html
Acetyl-L-Carnitine - preserves verbal abilities, verbal memory
and logical intelligence. Overall cognitive enhancer
Alpha Lipoic Acid - anti-oxidant, fat & water soluble -
may help slow down the advance of neuro-degenerative diseases. In
a recent study, Alzheimers patients given 600mg. ALA daily for a
period of 1 year were found to have stabilized cognitive function with
no additional loss. ALA is non-toxic & found in health food stores. The
R-ALA form of Lipoic Acid is superior.

Acids - Omega-3 - is a powerful anti-inflammatory. Found in Fish Oils (ideally, use
molecularly distilled fish oils that do not contain mercury) and Flax Oil
Galantamine - daffodil flower extract - extends the activity
of acetylcholine. Dramatically improves cognitive abilities in Alzheimers
patients. Proven results from dozens of Human medical trials including
Double-Blind Placebo groups. Available as a natural supplement, or as an
FDA approved prescription under brand name - Reminyl -by Janssen
Pharmaceutica. Ask your doctor about this. Has some minor
side effects. Available in natural supplement form called - GalantaMind
- from Life Enhancement Products - (800) 543-3873 -
Ginko Biloba - increases
cerebral blood flow and oxygenation, helping memory. Italian
researchers have demonstrated that 160mg. daily dose of Ginko works
just as well as the popular Alzheimer's drug - Donepezil (Aricept) -

Huperzine A - (also
known as Chinese Club Moss) - improves memory & learning. Neuro-protective
activity
Lecithin - supports health brain and liver function
and increases blood levels of choline, which the body uses to make acetylcholine
Lithium Orotate - (or Lithium Aspartate) protects brain cells
against toxic elements . Helps mental and mood disorders, restores normal
brain function damaged by alcohol. Lithium
protects against Glutamate over-stimulation to help relax the brain.
It has been demonstrated to actually help grow new brain cells (as reported
in Lancet - from a Wayne State University study). In animal studies, lithium
was able to block an enzyme required for the formation of Amyloid-beta
plaque deposits that clog up the brain. Deposition of amyloid-beta
plaques was reduced by 40 to 78 percent! Most people think of lithium
as a drug used in bi-polar disorders. However, when used in much
smaller doses of 10 to 20 mg. per day, lithium is very well tolerated
and has many benefits for protecting the brain. Supplier

Resveratrol -
the heart-healthy component found in red grapes and responsible for the
health benefits of red wine. Resveratrol offers many benefits for
the heart and circulatory system. Laboratory research shows that
Resveratrol promotes the breakdown of beta-amyloid plaques associated with
Alzheimers. Note that this was observed in a laboratory setting and
not in human or animal testing. The reference for this research
is - (J Biol Chem 05;280(45):37377-37382). Sources - Longevinex brand offers capsules sealed in nitrogen to prevent oxidation - http://www.longevinex.com
Turmeric - powerful anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant.
In recent animal studies at the University of California, the Amyloid Plaques,
like those found in Alzheimers patients were reduced by more than 40 percent
in animals given Curcumin (a
compound found in Turmeric). Inflammation and free-radical damage was also
reduced. In is known that people in India have the world's lowest incidence
of Alzheimers. The use of turmeric in preparing Indian curries may
explain this.
Vinpocetine - similar to Ginko - increases cerebral blood
flow and oxygenation
Allergy Relief
/ Asthma
SOME FRIGHTENING
INFORMATION - in
a recent review of 19 studies, involving some 34,000 people, researchers
from Stanford and Cornell Universities observed that asthmatics
using popular inhalers (containing the drugs serevent, advir or foradil)
were 2.5 times more likely to be hospitalized AND 3.5 times more likely
to DIE from an asthma attack than patients using a placebo inhaler.
What this means, is that out of the approx. 5,000 deaths attributed to
asthma each year in the U.S., an estimated 4,000 deaths are actually CAUSED
by the very drugs used to treat the condition! (note: we are not
suggesting that your throw your inhalers in the trash). Be informed
about any medications you are taking. If you don't like the side-effects,
then look for less harmful alternatives.
Water as a cure
for Asthma? - according to medical researcher,
Dr. F. Batmanghelidj, M.D. - Asthma is a symptom of dehydration in the
body. Dr. B. is the author of the fascinating book called - Your
Body's Many Cries for Water - . Dr. B. is deceased, but his ground-breaking
and proven methods are detailed in his book. There is also a website
about his water research at http://www.phenomenews.com/nov2005/archive_set.htm
According to Dr.
Batmanghelidj, water dehydration causes the body to increase histamine
that constricts the bronchioles in an effort to conserve water loss from
exhalation of the breath. Dr. B. states that asthma can be reversed
and prevented by simply drinking 8 to 10 (8 ounce) glasses of water per
day - with a pinch of sea salt. Contrary to the low-salt diet fad,
Dr. B. recommends 1/2 teaspoon of salt per day for proper functioning of
the body. Ideally, this should be natural celtic sea salt containing
many minerals. Salt effectively breaks up mucous and phlem in the
lungs. Dr. B. suggests trying 1 glass of water and a pinch of salt
on the tongue at the first sign of wheezing. In many cases, this
is said to stop the asthma attack.
Do not think you
are drinking water, when in fact, you are drinking cans of diet sodas,
coffee, tea, orange juice, etc. These do not count towards your 8
glasses per day.
Proper Breathing
Asthma Therapy - learning to breathe properly
can significantly improve asthma symptoms for many people. Read
about the method of Dr. Buteyko at - http://www.Buteyko-usa.com.

treating Asthma naturally - includes
DVD & booklets - http://www.KickAsthma.com (or call 877-278-4623
Asthma cure?
- a one-time treatment with this technique is said to offer long term
relief and in some cases, a total cure for asthma. An injection
containing Procaine is inserted into trigger points in the middle of
each shoulder blade. The procaine (which is a local anesthetic) relaxes
bronchial passageways. To find out more about this therapy, contact -
American Academy of Neural Therapy in Seattle, Washington
(425-637-9339) for a referral to a doctor in your area that’s trained
in this technique. Website - http://www.neuraltherapy.com.
Oralmat - from Australia. Natural herbal product
with no listed side effects derived from Ryegrass. Medical trials
are underway in Australia. Anecdotal patient reports claim the product
is so effective that allergy & asthma sufferers can greatly reduce
or even eliminate normal medication / inhalers. Adults asthmatics get significant
relief after 3 to 4 weeks and children respond much faster. Allergy
symptoms are said to improve, sometimes within minutes of use.

DARK CHOCOLATE - roasted cacao beans used to make chocolate, is nature's richest
source of Polyphenols with potent antioxidant activity. Among the
actions of chocolate are : 1. Flavanol in chocolate stimulates production
of Nitric Oxide, which relaxes the arteries, opening them up and reducing
blood pressure. 2. decreases fasting insulin and glucose levels and
insulin sensitivity. Studies suggest that chocolate may actually
lower blood sugar. (again, we are talking about dark chocolate, not white
chocolate or milk chocolate). 3. Reduces inflammation 4. Dark Chocolate
has a high ORAC RATING (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) at a measure
of 13,120. Compared against raisins at 2,830 or blueberries at 2,400.
5. Dark Chocolate appears to raise the good HDL cholesterol, while having
no effect upon the LDL. The cardiovascular benefits of dark chocolate
are so potent, that it was recently included in a list of heart-healthy
foods, along with fish, wine, fruits, vegetables, garlic and almonds (British
Medical Journal). To get these benefits, buy only chocolate bars
that contain 70 percent cocoa or more. There will be some sugar
or sweetener in the chocolate bar and some fat content. Suggested
serving is up to 50 grams (1.75 ounces) daily.
Anxiety -
there are doubtless, hundreds of techniques, supplements, exercises,
etc. that address anxiety. This listing is by no means all-inclusive.
Just a few ideas that one can research further: Exercise, Yoga,
Breathing Techniques, EFT (emotional freedom technique - numerous
listings on the internet including some free book downloads), NLP -
Neuro Linguistic Programming, Hypnosis, Food Allergy Testing and
elimination (Gluten, brain and nervous system excitotoxins, such as
Glutamate, MSG, sugar, etc.) There are also factors like lack of sleep,
side-effects of prescription medications, drinking too many
caffeine-loaded soft drinks or coffee, etc. Some commonly over-looked
factors can include Electromagnetic Field Pollution from over-exposure
to consumer electronics (cell phones, computers, etc.) Fluorescent
lighting fixtures) proximity to high-tension power lines, cell phone
towers, etc.
Some nutritional supplements that can help are listed in no particular order of importance:
* GABA - gamma-aminobutyric acid - is an inhibitory brain neurotransmitter and amino acid.
* Green Tea - contains an amino acid - L-Theanine - that naturally raises GABA levels
* 5-HTP - amino acid supplement that raises serotonin levels in the brain
* L-Tryptophan - amino acid that is used in production of melatonin and serotonin
* Kava and Valerian - herbs that promote relaxation
* Omega-3 fatty acids
* Lithium Orotate - low dose lithium orotate or aspartate. Is
neuro-protective of the brain and helps with cognitive functions and
calmness
* Dilantin - although mostly known as an anti-seizure medication,
dilantin taken in low dosages can quiet the brain and reduce symptoms
of anxiety. Reduces negative emotional states, anger and anxiety.

Look for these in your local health food store or on the internet. Other sources of Omega 3 oil include wild Alaskan Salmon and Sardines (in spring water or olive oil - not in Soy Bean oil).Flax Seed Oil
- purchase bottled flax oil or grind your own organic flax seeds in a
simple coffee grinder. Two to three tablespoons of seeds provide a good
amount of ALA (alpha linolenic acid) which is a precursor for EPA and
DHA. This method also provides a high amount of daily fiber requirement
for the diet.

Auto-Immune Disorders - MS - Lupus - RA
Naltrexone - naltrexone is a drug that is often used to help addicts withdraw from
heroin. Researchers have now discovered that Naltrexone, administered
in low doses (called Low-Dose Naltrexone) can produce amazing recoveries
from numerous types of cancer (including colon, prostate, melanoma, breast,
ovary, brain, lung, Hodgkin's Disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and chronic
lymphocytic leukemia. Low Dose Naltrexone seems to work even better
for auto-immune diseases such as MS, Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Crohn's
Disease and others. You have not heard of these OFF Label applications
because the patent on Naltrexone has expired and pharmaceutical companies
and doctors are not actively promoting this simple, inexpensive and effective
treatment. One doctor, Burton Berkson, M.D. in Las Cruces, New Mexico,
used low dose Naltrexone combined with intravenous Alpha Lipoic Acid on
a 46 year old patient with pancreatic cancer and metastases to the liver.
The patient is now back at work and symptom free. Naltrexone requires
a prescription and is made in low dose form by a compounding pharmacy.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy - is
becoming a standard therapy in the U.K. with over 100 treatment
centers. HBO therapy claims an amazing 70 to 80 percent stabilization
or improvement rate. The earlier one begins treatment after being
diagnosed, the better the response. The low pressure HBO at 1.3 to 1.5
atmospheres works the best. HBO therapy is available at numerous
hospitals, clinics and private facilities. A home unit is now available
from - Oxy Health Corporation - http://www.hyperoxy.com - or phone 877-789-0123.
Back Pain Relief - natural pain relief with these two natural botanicals - Asalixx (white willow bark extract from Germany) and Univestin
(a special blend of two herbs) Both of these formulas were found as
effective as COX-2 Inhibitors. In another interesting study of 360 men
and women who suffered from low back pain, it was found that 83 percent
were found to be deficient in Vitamin D. Significant improvements were
noted when subjects were given 5,000 to 10,000 IU of Vitamin D per day
for three months.
Prolozone
- an effective and natural alternative to epidural steroid injections.
A breakthrough in pain management for low back pain, sciatica,

Bladder Infection
/ Urinary Tract Infection
D-Mannose - is a simple type of sugar that attracts
the E-Coli bacteria (the cause of common bladder infections) that are lodged
in the cells lining the bladder & urinary tract. To use,
simply add one teaspoon of D-Mannose powder to a glass of water every 3
to 4 hours. This provides an abundant food source for the E-Coli
bacteria, that they cannot resist. They detach themselves from the
walls of the bladder to feast upon the free meal of D-Mannose sugars and
simply get flushed out of the bladder & urinary tract along with the
urine! You will be amazed with the rapid results. There are
NO anti-biotic side-effects and no adverse affect on the beneficial bacteria.
Available in health food stores - http://www.wellnesspartners.com/mannose/
SSKI - Potassium Iodide
- this is a very inexpensive and effective, time-tested remedy for
bladder infection going back to the 1920's. Basic instructions call for
15 drops in a glass of water every three to four hours during the day
time only. Repeat for 2 to 3 days and in most cases, the problem will
resolve. Look for SSKI or Tri-Quench from Scientific Botanicals. Also

Blood Pressure
/ Hypertension
There are many ways
to lower high blood pressure including weight loss, regular moderate exercise,
high fiber-low-fat diet, bio-feedback, reducing alcohol and tobacco &
other lifestyle changes to lower stress. Supplements that can help to lower
blood pressure include: Garlic, CoQ10 (Q-Melt
brand) (100-200 mg. daily) Nattokinase, Hawthorn (360mg. daily) Omega 3
fish oil (4,000 - 5,000 mg. daily) Magnesium (500 - 1,000 mg. daily)
Potassium, L-Arginine (500 - 1,000 mg. daily) the Auyervedic remedy
PADMA. Celery Juice - a glass or two
of celery juice each day (or eating several stalks of celery) may significantly help lower blood pressure. Low
Sodium V-8 Juice - 12
oz. per day can keep blood pressure in check for many people.
Balance3 - a mix of Chinese herbs that effectively lowers blood pressure for many individuals. Locate in most health food stores.
Water as a Cure for
Hypertension - Surprisingly, chronic water
dehydration could be the cause of high blood pressure for many people.
This can often be reversed by drinking 8 glasses of water per day and engaging
in daily moderate exercise, such as walking. This simple formula
has been advanced by Dr. F. Batmanghelidj,
M.D., Author of the book - Your Body's Many Cries for Water. Published

Zona Plus
- is a joy-stick shape handgrip device that lowers blood pressure
simply by squeezing the hand grip for two minutes, rest a minute,
squeeze, rest. A digital readout tells you how hard to squeeze and when
to relax. Performing this exercise for 12 minutes a day, 5 days a week,
is said to lower blood pressure up to 14 points. This is as effective
as prescription blood pressure medications.....but without any
side-effects. Zona Plus exercise stimulates the release of Nitric Oxide
from the endothelial cells lining the arteries. Nitric Oxide is a powerful vasodilator that causes the arteries to relax, thus lowering blood pressure. Order at (800) 364-7378
Fish Protein Peptides - have been shown effective as ACE inhibitors. There are products
such as Vasotensin and PeptACETM.
Peptides are composed of a mixture of nine small peptides (amino acids)
derived from muscle of the Bonito fish which lowers blood pressure
by inhibiting ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme), responsible for
the constriction of blood vessels. The peptides have the ability to relax
the arterial walls and reduce fluid volume in your arteries more effectively
because they are absorbed intact rather than broken down by digestive
enzymes. These products do not lower normal blood pressure. Suppliers: PeptACETM - http://www.bioactivenutrients.com/PeptACEPeptides.html
Vasotensin - http://cnm-inc.com/item-vasotensin.html
Fish Oils - omega 3 fish oils rich in EPA and DHA for anti-inflammatory benefits - superior brands include Carlson's Norwegian Fish Oil and Blue Ice - high vitamin cod liver oil from Norway. Look for these in your local health food store or on the internet. Other sources of Omega 3 oil include wild Alaskan Salmon and Sardines (in spring water or olive oil - not in Soy Bean oil).Flax Seed Oil
- purchase bottled flax oil or grind your own organic flax seeds in a
simple coffee grinder. Two to three tablespoons of seeds provide a good
amount of ALA (alpha linolenic acid) which is a precursor for EPA and
DHA. This method also provides a high amount of daily fiber requirement
for the diet.
Vitamin D - it is known that people living in tropical climates generally have lower
blood pressure than people in Northern lattitudes. This is due, in
part, to the greater amount of sunshine and the subsequently higher levels
of vitamin D in the body the closer one gets to the equator. Blood
serum levels of vitamin D among tropical dwellers is commonly in the range
of 60 ng/ml. Using vitamin D to lower your blood pressure could
take several months to reach its full effectivenss. The recommended
dosages are within the range of 4,000 to 10,000 IU daily. One can
over-dose on vitamin D, so it is best to work with your doctor when using
this approach. Getting 15 to 20 minutes a day of sunshine also raises
vitamin D levels naturally. However, this is not as effective during
the Winter months.
Lycopene - from tomatoes, lowers blood pressure. This includes tomato suace and paste, spaghetti sauce, pizza suace, etc.
Hidden Causes for
High Blood Pressure - heavy metal toxicity
can be a cause for essential hypertension - hair
analysis is not the most accurate method of testing for heavy metal contamination.
A hair analysis test can come back negative and you could still have heavy
metal toxins stored in bones. A Chelation Test is the most accurate
test for the presence of heavy metal toxins and Chelation Therapy is the
most effective method of removing the metals from the body.

Baking Soda (bicarbonate) - Dr.
Tullio Simoncini from Italy, has developed an effective cancer therapy
using sodium bicarbonate. Baking Soda has a negative charge and is
alkaline, so helps to reduce the acid environment that allows cancer to
thrive. When injected into a cancerouse site or by IV into the artery
feeding the tumor, the negative charge of the bicarbonate works to
remove the positive charged, acidic hydrogen ions from the tissues. It
also kills off the Candida fungus that binds tumors together and allows
them to multiply. Some of Dr. Simoncini's colleagues alternate the
bicarbonate therapy with high dose IV Vitamin C. The therapy is said to
eliminate metastatic cancers within days to several weeks, without
chemotherapy or radiation or surgery! Dr. Simoncini has written a book
called - Cancer is a Fungus. - www.cancerfungus.com. There is no
directory of medical doctors in the U.S. who offer this simple
treatment. One may have to travel to Italy and pay their own expenses
for treatment. Please note that one cannot simply consume baking soda
from the grocery store and obtain these kind of results.

Caution -
flax seed and flax oil are excellent sources of Omega 3 fatty acid in the
form of ALA (Alpha Linolenic Acid). However, some authorities state
that the ALA component of Flax seed or Flax Oil may actually INCREASE the
risk of Prostate Cancer. A major study published by the Harvard School
of Public Health - involving 15,000 physicians found that men with the
highest levels of ALA had nearly a 300 percent increase in their
risk of developing metastatic prostate cancer. Your body still needs
Omega 3, so the solution may be to take the DHA and EPA forms found in cold
water fish such as salmon, herring, sardines and tuna. To ensure
that you receive the purest form of this essential oil, that is free from
any heavy metal contaminants, take a product that says 'Molecularly Distilled'
on the lable. This should be available in the refrigerated oils section

Insulin Potentiation
Therapy - cancer
cells have up to 15 times more insulin receptors than normal cells and
are known to utilize glucose at much higher levels than healthy cells.
The glucose is transported into the cells by insulin. Insulin potentiation
therapy increases the permeablity of cancer cells and greatly increases
the absorption of chemotherapy drugs into the cancer cells on a selective
basis, without the usual harmful effects to healthy cells. Smaller
dosages of chemotherapy chemicals can be administered, but with an amplified
effectiveness hundreds of times greater than traditional chemotherapy.
Used with many types of cancer. More details are available in this article: http://www.cancure.org/insulin_potentiation_therapy.htm . Insulin Potentiation Therapy Cancer Treatment

Lithium for Increasing
White Blood Cell Count - increases white blood cell counts to normal levels in chemotherapy and
radiation patients (even if the person continues those treatments).
Lithium achieves these effects by stimulating the stem cells in bone marrow,
which then turn into platelets and white blood cells. Doses of lithium
(5-10 milligrams twice daily) will also usually raise a low count to normal
even in non-cancer patients. For cancer treatment patients - be certain
to use this product only under the supervision of your medical doctor.
Modified Citrus Pectin - inhibits cancer metastasis (spreading of cancer) note: do not use
regular powdered fruit pectin found in health food stores...you need the
specially formulated MCP -
Suggested dosages from medical studies are - 15 grams per day (5 grams

Sarvapisti - scientists of the D.S. Research Centre, Varanasi, led by Prof Shiva
Shankar Trivedi and Dr Uma Shankar Tiwari claim to have developed an ayurvedic
medicine Sarvapisti, which cures life-threatening cancer. Based on a new
concept of nutrient-based medical therapy, Sarvapisti claims to have cured thousands
of cancer patients in their advanced stage of disease. The tests on this
medicine were conducted by the centre in the past. The patients are now
leading a normal life without any stigma of cancer, a spokesman said. Sarvapisti
has been developed from the ancient science of nutrient energy. It is prepared
from the natural food material, which strengthens the body immunity to
drive out the disease. The scientists of the centre discovered the methods
to get nutrient energy at laboratory level from food in 1978. They prepared
several medicines by isolating nutrients form different groups of food,
which provide curative effect for many chronic diseases during scientific
observations. The preparation is shipped from India. Cost is
around $3,000.00 per month.

Turmeric -
this common Indian cooking spice is a powerful immune-boosting, anti-oxidant
and anti-inflammatory compound. When combined with bioflavinoids, Curcumin
( a compound found in Turmeric) has been shown to inhibit the growth
of estrogen-dependent human breast cancer cells by up to 95 percent. Citation
- (Environ Health Perspect 98;106(12): pp. 807-12. We just read about
another use for Curcumin (an ingredient found in Turmeric) for skin cancer
- mix a capsule (available in health food stores) of Curcumin with a capsule
of Artimisinin (see above ref.) along with a little DMSO (70 percent dilution)
to make a paste. Apply twice daily onto skin carcinomas. Curcumin
has been demonstrated to suppress many types of cancer cell lines
in laboratory testing. Curcumin product called Super Curcumin is
available from Life Extension Foundation - http://www.lef.org.
We are not aware of any research using this approach for Melanoma skin
cancers.
Vitamin C -
Intraveinous Vitamin C in high doses is toxic to cancer cells. Vitamin
C generates Hydrogen Peroxide, which is deadly to cancer cells. Find

Vitamin D-3
A
number of sources report that Vitamin D-3 deficiencies may be involved
with up to 22 different types of cancer. Standard suggested dosages of
400 to 800 IU are considered inadequate to protect the average
individual living in Northern climates with insufficient Winter sun
exposure. Some leading alternative health medical doctors are now
recommending dosages of 2,000 to 4,000 IU daily. Also, when possible,
get 15 min. per day of direct sunlight. Two recent meta-analyses
comparing blood levels of vitamin D-3 with Breast Cancer and
Colo-Rectal Cancer showed the highest risk of cancer with the lowest
levels of vitamin D-3. As vitamin levels increased, cancer risk
decreased. The findings were so strong that the researchers concluded
that increasing vitamin D-3 levels could actually prevent TWO -THIRDS
of all colorectal cancers and HALF of breast cancer cases! This is an
amazingly easy and inexpensive preventative for these types of cancer.
Supplier - a good source for Vitamin D-3 is a high dosage liquid form

Folate - there is a link between alcohol consumption and increased breast cancer
risk. A study in Australia examined breast cancer rates in 14,447
women and found that alcohol consumption only heightened risk if women
were also defficient in Folate (lacking Folic Acid). Folate plays
a critical role in DNA repair.
Iodine -
Japanese and Icelandic women have among the world's lowest incidence of
breast cancer. They also have the highest dietary levels of Iodine.
Dr. Guy Abraham, former professor of obstetrics, gynecology, and endocrinology
at the UCLA School of Medicine has studied Iodine for many years.
He believes the RDA - recommended daily allowance for Iodine is much too
low at 150 micrograms per day for adults. Dr. Abraham recommends
an optimum level of 12.5 milligrams per day. (the average daily intake
of Iodine in Japan is 13.8 milligrams). Different tissues in
the body prefer different forms of Iodine. For example, the Thyroid
Gland concentrates the Iodide form, while the Breasts concentrate
the Iodine form. Therefore, both forms are needed for the
body. Sources: Dr. Abraham's formula
called - Iodoral - 1 table daily contains
5 milligrams of iodine and 7.5 milligrams of iodide, which is the ideal
combination. This is the same ratio as found in Lugol's Solution (available
by prescription only). Iodoral is available from compounding pharmacies,
some health stores, and from Tahoma Clinic
Dispensary - (425)264-0051 or http://www.tahoma-clinic.com Another
formula is called Triodide (in liquid form). Triodid is also available
from Tahoma Clinic and some Health Stores. Triodide is combined with
a sea vegetable called bladderwrack, used to treat thyroid problems. Taking
large quantities of iodine for extended periods can suppress thyroid function.
It is a good idea to monitor your Thyroid levels with your physician when
using long-term iodine supplementation. These doctors state they
have not seen thyroid suppression with these dosages.
Modified Citrus Pectin - inhibits cancer metastasis (spreading of cancer) note: do not use
regular powdered fruit pectin found in health food stores...you need the
specially formulated MCP -
Suggested dosages from medical studies are - 15 grams per day (5 grams
taken three times a day while the cancer is active). Maintenance dose
is usually 3 to 5 grams a day. MPC is comepletely non-toxic and is
well-tolerated. side effects may be only minor bloating or intestinal
gas, due to the fiber content.

Melatonin - an interesting correlation found that female night shift workers have
a 50 percent greater risk of developing breast cancer than daytime workers.
The key factor was a decreased production of melatonin, which the body
produces mainly in the dark. Also, women who slept nine or more hours
a night had a smaller chance of developing breast cancer. Common
dosages for melatonin supplements are in the 1 to 3 mg. range. A
similar correlation was found in male night-shift workers vs. day workers
and the development of prostate cancers. It appears that melatonin
offers protection against cancers in women and men.

Cholesterol Lowering
Formulas
Cholesterol
plays a vital role in numerous processes in the human body and is
necessary for proper functioning of the brain and vitamin D synthesis.
Cholesterol is NOT the Cause of heart disease! Pharmaceutical
cholesterol-lowering medicines (Statins) reduce the vital CoQ10 enzyme
in the body and elevate liver enzymes. This is the basis for recent
news reports of deaths and muscle weakness, etc from these drugs. The
natural supplements listed below are not known to cause this problem,
but it is always best to add a good quality CoQ10 Gel-cap or QMelt to
your supplementation in order to avoid any such possibility. The dry
powdered capsule form of CoQ10 is poorly absorbed by the body.
Reductochol - Red
Yeast Rice - http://www.gaines.com/index.html or Vinco's Organic Red Yeast Rice.
Eventhough Red Yeast Rice is a natural product, one should still take a
CoQ10 supplement daily in order to maintain adequate levels as
statin-lowering formulas can interfere with liver production of CoQ10.
A good dosage is 100mg. daily.

Body Oxygen - according to medical studies, Body Oxygen
increases mitochondria by up to 25 percent. This claim has been backed
up by a European trial that showed Body Oxygen effectively increased cellular
respiration (oxygenation) in a study of 20,000 cancer patients. The author
of that study, Dr. Serge Jurasunas, believes that a daily dosage of Body
Oxygen may help prevent and treat the disorders caused by decreased mitochondrial
ATP production.This unique formulation combines yeast cells, fruit juices,
amino acids and certain vitamins that stimulate mitochondrial activity.
Mitochondria are cell organelles (literally; organs of the cell) that serve
as powerplants, processing nutrients and oxygen that feed the cells. But
toxins and diseases weaken mitochondria, often reducing cellular efficiency,
as we grow older. This gradual process results in the typical signs of
aging and contributes to chronic and debilitating illnesses. Suppliers:

Circulatory System
& Heart Health, Stroke Prevention, Blood Pressure
Note:
If you are under a doctor's care for heart disease, you should always
notify your doctor of any supplements you are taking. Please note that
where individual dosages of supplements are listed, that these are
suggested as stand-alone supplement doses. In other words, unless
specifically stated, we are not presenting this information as an
actual protocol of any particular supplements that should be taken
together. It is a general collection of information from numerous
sources and the decision of which supplements to include in your
individual program should be made between you and your medical
practitioner. For example, if you are already taking a prescription
blood-thinner, adding certain supplements could make the blood too
thin.
One of the best
things you can do for heart health is to get off Statin Drugs! Statins
are dangerous and they simply do not work in terms of reducing deaths
from heart disease. Some of them do reduce cholesterol significantly,
but in the process, they interfere with the liver's ability to produce
Co-EnzymeQ10, which results in muscle weakness and heart damage.
Dramatically reducing your cholesterol can also make you stupid! The
human brain is made of a large percentage of cholesterol and when this
is interrupted, it can lead to memory loss, cognitive decline and TGA -
Transient Global Amnesia. America's obsession with low-fat diets is
literally killing people. Your doctor will probably tell you that there
is no evidence to connect Statin Drugs to these effects. Don't believe
this! Take some worthwhile effort to find a doctor who knows how to
naturally reduce your cholesterol and blood sugar if this is your
concern. Remember, high cholesterol levels by themselves do not cause
heart disease or reduce your life-span. The real culprit appears to be
chronic inflammation of the arteries, free-radical oxidation of fats in
the body, a lifetime of ingesting hydrogenated Omega 6 cooking oils and
dozens of other artificial chemicals. Avoid the "poison aisle" of
cooking oils in your supermarket and use pure extra virgin olive oil,
organic coconut oil or red palm oil for cooking.
EDTA Chelation Therapy
- has long been heralded as the Gold Standard treatment for hardening
of the arteries (atherosclerosis). The drawback is expense and the need
for doctor visits to receive EDTA IV injections. Oral EDTA preparations
are by and large rather ineffective in getting a therapeutic dosage
delivered where needed, with a mere 2 to 5% absorption. A new approach
comes in the form of a rectal suppository that claims a 36% absorption
that remains in the system up to eight hours, compared to EDTA IV that
is detected in the blood for only up to two hours after treatment. The
EDTA suppository is available under the brand name of - Detoxamin -
877-656-4553 - www.detoxamin.com. As the maximum dose of IV Chelation
is about 3,000 mg. and Detoxamin is 36% absorbed, one would use about
9,000 mg. to get an equivalent at home treatment
Essential Fatty Acids - reduces C-Reactive Protien
(CRP) which is a marker for cardiovascular
inflammation. Omega-3 oils should always include 400 to 800 IU of
mixed vitamin E (tocopherols) in order to prevent oxidation. Look
for oils with vitamin E included or take mixed tocopherols with each serving.
Fish Oils - omega 3 fish oils rich in EPA and DHA for anti-inflammatory benefits - superior brands include Carlson's Norwegian Fish Oil and Blue Ice - high vitamin cod liver oil from Norway. Look for these in your local health food store or on the internet. Other sources of Omega 3 oil include wild Alaskan Salmon and Sardines (in spring water or olive oil - not in Soy Bean oil). Blue Ice Fermented High Nutrient CLO (Cod Liver Oil - Omega
3 & 6 - EPA & DHA
- 2-4 capsules daily. This is THE best quality oil with all of the
natural vitamin A and vitamin D. The oil is a deep red/brown color and
is cinnamon flavored. In capsule form. Supplier - http://www.greenpasture.org/products/butter-oil
Flax Seed Oil -
purchase bottled flax oil or grind your own organic flax seeds in a
simple coffee grinder. Two to three tablespoons of seeds provide a good
amount of ALA (alpha linolenic acid) which is a precursor for EPA and
DHA. This method also provides a high amount of daily fiber requirement
for the diet.
C-Reactive Protien
(CRP)
is a marker for cardiovascular inflammation. This can be reduced and
normalized by a combination of supplements including - fish oils (omega
3) B vitamins such as B-12 and Folic Acid and NAC - N-acetyl-L-cysteine
(500mg. capsule per day), Curcumin (500mg daily), Magnesium (500mg
daily). A diet rich in organic fruits and vegetables, high in
carotenoids, will also normalize CRP levels. Studies have found that
people eating 20 grams or more of daily fiber have 1/3 lower levels of
CRP than individuals eating 8.8 grams or less.
Homocysteine - see above information on CRP. These same supplements are typically recommended for reducing high homocysteine levels
Circulate - a
new supplement product formulated by Dr. Julian Whitaker - supports complete
circulatory system health and proper blood flow, supports a normalized
function of clotting and breakdow of Fibrin and Plasmin factors.
Promotes healthy blood flow and viscosity and flexibility of veins and
arteries. Contains Nattokinase in the effective dosages as used in
medical studies. More information on Dr. Whitaker's
website at - http://www.drwhitaker.com/
CoQ-10 - use
capsules or product called Q-Melt or similar that is mixed with oil.
Dry, powdered version of CoQ-10 are not as effective - CoQ-10 is a cellular
energizer that is very protective for the heart and other organs. CoQ10
is non-toxic. Co-Enzyme Q10 -
contributes to healthy heart function, helps normalize blood pressure,
reduces gum inflammation & much more. A good brand of CoQ10 is
available from - Advanced Bionutritionals at 800-728-2288. Their
product also contains Alpha Lipoic Acid and L-Carnitine. This superior
form of CoQ10 is called - Ubiquinol - this form is much more stable and
does not oxidize as easily. Inexpensive CoQ10 capsules are usually an
orange colored powder. This form is called a - Ubiquinone and it
oxidizes quickly and is not well absorbed.
Corvalen-M - a
supplement of - Ribose,
Malic Acid and Magnesium - that boosts ATP production to restore energy and reduce muscle soreness.
These are two of the main symptoms of Fibromyalgia. The ATP raising
ability of Ribose also makes it very beneficial for cardiovascular

Curcumin / Turmeric -
the curcumin component of this Indian spice is gaining more and more attention
as a powerful anti-inflammatory / anti-oxidant. Many disease states
have chronic inflammation as a primary or contributing cause.
Ginko Biloba -
is a powerful anti-oxidant that protects brain cells and also acts as a
blood thinner, reducing blood platelett sticking. It is generally very
safe. Combining the proper dosage of Ginko, along with Omega 3 fish
oils can thin the blood as effectively as Coumadin. It is important to
work with your natural health physician to determine the proper dosages
required. Do not try this on your own without getting the proper blood
tests and regular follow-up monitoring. Usual dosages are 120mg. in
divided doses per day. Be aware that combining Ginko with prescription
blood thinners or even some over the counter medicines such as aspirin
could potentially cause the blood to become too thin.

Magnesium - as magnesium citrate or citrate/malate - is the most important mineral for preventing and decreasing atherosclerosis.
Nattokinase - is an enzyme derived from Natto, a traditional Japanese fermented soy

SSKI -
super saturated potassium iodide solution - 2 to 6 drops in a glass of water, helps to thin out mucus secretions and support immune function. Available from Dr. Jonathan Wright's Tahoma Clinic - http://www.tahoma-clinic.com - Tahoma
clinic in Kent, Washington. Medical clinic, nutritional health formulas and supplements.
Xlear -
(pronounced as Clear) - ear, nose, sinus, allergy & other upper respiratory
problems. Xlear is a natural sugar (Xylitol) that does not directly kill
bacteria, but renders them unable to adhere to cell linings, somewhat like
a teflon coating that doesn't allow bacteria to stick. Comes in spray
bottle & available in most health food stores. The sugar in Xlear
is Xylitol, which is also very beneficial in reducing bacteria involved
in tooth decay. Xylitol is available in 1 or 2 pound packages as
a 1 to 1 sugar substitute that is suitable for diabetics (low glycemic
index). It has a very lively, energetic taste. It tastes
better than sugar and does not have a sickly-sweet type of flavor. Looks,
pours and dissolves just like cane sugar.
Vitamin D3 - your body uses sunlight to produce vitamin D3, which has powerful immune
enhancing activity. In the Winter, people receive much less sunlight
and less vitamin D3. This lowered protection level increases susceptibility
to colds and flu. Taking 5,000 IU Vitamin D3 per day, especially during
the flu season could offer the needed protection. It is safe, inexpensive,
and without side-effects.
AHCC Immpower - by
American Biosciences - increases (NK) Natural Killer cell activity by 300
percent or more. Comes in 500mg capsule. By activating the
Innate Immune system at the first sign of cold or flu symptoms, severity
and duration of illness is lessened.
COPD - Chronic Obstructive Pulminary Disease
- this name is an umbrella term that can apply to more than one
condition, but they would all be related in terms of the patient having
restricted airflow to the lungs. There are some things that can ease
symptoms and improve the quality of breathing and activity levels.
SSKI - Potassium Iodide - is an excellent exectorant that loosens phlem and improves breathing.
Inhaled Glutathione
- this is a very powerful anti-oxidant. Glutathione can be ordered from
a compounding pharmacy to work with a nebulizer. To find an alternative
doctor in your area who will prescribe this, contact the ACAM
organization at - http://www.acam.org or call 888-439-6891.
Dental Plaque -
there is a highly effective product called - WOW - that contains
ingredients that bind with dental, bacteria, film, plaque & stains
to remove them from the teeth. Just chew a couple of tablets each day
and swish around your teeth and gums for 1 to 2 min. WOW can be ordered
from Carson Laboratories at http://www.woworalcare.com or call

Depression -
there are numerous underlying causes for depression. There are many
natural products that can help. Consult with your doctor before using
any of these formulas, especially if you are presently taking
prescription anti-depressants. Many of these natural products have
been proven in clinical testing to be as effective or better than
pharmaceutical drugs in treating mild to moderate depression. For
Example, St. John's Wort is widely prescribed by medical doctors in
Germany. Getting moderate amounts of daily exercise is one of the best
and least expensive tools in fighting depression. Exercise boosts your
body's natural serotonin and dopamine levels. Simply
taking a pill, whether prescription or natural, may not solve
depression without also addressing other underlying factors that may
include: life-style situations, heavy metal toxicity, environmental
toxins, allergies, endocrine system imbalances (adrenal exhaustion),
side effects of various medications, poor strategies for dealing with
grief, loss, stress, and many other possible factors.
Did you know ....taking SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors -
Prozac, Paxil, Seroxat, Zoloft, Luvox, Effexor)) anti-depressants along
with NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin or
ibuprofen or COX-2 inhibitors) increases the risk of dangerous
gastro-intestinal bleeding by 600%. These findings were reported by
researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine.

Lithium Orotate
or Aspartate - a
brain anti-aging element. Used in depression and mood disorders.
Helps rehabilitate the brain in recovering alcoholics. Over the counter
supplement found in most health food stores contain small dosage tablets
of 5 mg. or so (usually taken 3x per day) Mainstream Lithium Carbonate,
prescribed by doctors for bi-polar condition is usually given in doses
of up to 300mg. per day. The small amounts in the health food store
brands should not cause any type of side effects.
St. John's Wort - shown to be as effective as the prescription
PAXIL in patients with moderate to severe depression. Reported in
the British Medical Journal, 2005. The suggested dosage
is 300mg three times per day. St. John's Wort lessens the effects
of some drugs and should not be taken with Statins, Digoxin, Oral Contraceptives,
Coumadin or Prilosec. Check with your
doctor for other potential drug interactions before taking St. John's Wort. The
product used in the Paxil study is called - Perika - by Nature's Way.
SAMe -
is a natural amino acid metabolite found in the body in nearly every cell.
SAMe produces significant improvements in mood, similar to anti-depressants,
but without the major side-effects. It also works much faster than drugs
(within one week, compared to six to eight weeks for prescription drugs).
Suggested Dosage is 200-400mg. twice a day on an empty stomach. It
should not be taken by anyone who is suicidal or has bi-polar disorder.
L-Tryptophan
- this is a precuresor for serotonin. Some medical authorities suggest
starting with 3 to 5 grams per day and perhaps gradually reducing the
dosage if the symptoms are brought under control.
DHEA -
a National Institute of Mental Health study found DHEA to be an effective
treatment for midlife-onset depression. Although DHEA is available
as an over the counter supplement in health food stores, keep in mind that
this is a hormone normally produced by the body. Ideally, one should
have their hormone levels checked for any imbalances prior to taking DHEA
supplements. Suggested Dosage: 25 mg per day for women and 50 mg
per day for men. Have your blood levels tested before beginning supplementation
or increasing the dose for DHEA.
Adrafinil - brand name - Olmifon - stimulant / anti-depressant that also enhances
mental clarity, alertness and awareness
Omega 3 Fatty Acids
- flax oil and fish oils (EPA and DHA) - cell membranes require a lot
of omega 3 essential fatty acids. This is especially true of the
brain. Omega 3 fats fight depression by increasing the
neurotransmitter production of Serotonin and Dopamine. Use of Omega 6
oils - found in sunflower oil, safflower oil, soy and corn oil has
largely replace the more beneficial Omega 3 oils found in flax and
fish. The heavy imbalance of Omega 6 oils over Omega 3 in the Western
diet contributes to depression, suicide and aggression. Remember, that
the brain is composed of about 60% fat. The medical and pharmaceutical
establishment, with their much discredited crusade against fats and
cholesterol are doing untold damge to millions of people.
There are numerous sources for good quality organic plant oils and fish
oils. Here is a suggestion for a company with a wide range of products - http://bulknaturaloils.com/index.html

AGE - (advanced glycation end products)
- excessive sugar and refined carbohydrates in the diet may lead to
insulin resistance and to the formation of AGE (which can be measured
by a blood test called Hemoglobin A1c). AGE's generate free radicals
and cause lipid peroxidation, thereby triggering inflammatory reactions
in tissues, arteries, brain, etc. When these reactions become chronic,
this contributes to heart disease, stroke, neuro-degenerative diseases
and rapid aging. It is the chronic inflammatory process, along with
oxidized fats that creates such a problem, but cholesterol is singled
out and improperly blamed for heart diseases such as atherosclerosis.
Analysis of arterial plaques indicates the majority of the oxidized
fats are composed of Omega-6 oils, such as corn oil, safflower,
sunflower, peanut, canola and soybean. These are the very same
"beneficial" polyunsaturated oils recommend as part of a healthy diet
by mainstream medical authorities. These rancid oils are found in most
processed foods, salad dressings, baked goods and of course in the
"poison aisle" (cooking oils) of your local supermarket. Avoid these
toxic oils (including margarine) like the plague and stick to virgin
olive oil, organic cold-pressed coconut oil, red palm oil and other
organic oils. Make sure to get a balance of Omega-3 and Omega 6 oils in
the diet. The Western diet has a large imbalance of Omega-6 oils.
Resveratrol -
the heart-healthy anti-oxidant found in red grapes and red wine.
Available in concentrated capsule supplement equal to 12 glasses of red
wine. Resveratrol has the ability to reduce AGE's (Advanced Glycation
End Products) from the cells. AGE can damage the heart muscle and
contribute to heart failure & abnormal heart beat.
Sources -
Mountain Home Nutritionals - http://www.drdavidwilliams.com
There
are a number of supplements that will reduce the destructive AGE's in
the body. These include: Resveratrol, Curcumin(Turmeric), Quercetin,
Green and White Tea and a new form of the Vitamin B1 called
Benfotiamine. This form of vitamin B-1 reduces Insulin Resistance and
has anti-oxidant capabilities that protects against inflammation of the
blood vessels in diabetics. Regular B-1 does not have the same
anti-inflammatory effect.

Diabetes Prevention
- a study published in the Lancet in 2001 reported on a 31 year long
prospective study of over 10,000 children born in 1966 in northern
Finland. Children who were given 2,000 IU of Vitamin D per day during
the first year of their lives, had an 80 percent reduction in Type 1
Diabetes reported over the following 31 years! Omega 3 fatty acids have
also been demonstrated to reduce type 1 diabetes formation. Both of
these nutrients are available in the form of Cod Liver Oil. Prospective
mothers can safely take 1 tablespoon of cod liver oil daily and while
breast feeding in order to confer the benefits to their infant. Cod
liver oil is rich in natural vitamin D and A, while regular Fish Oil is
good for Omega 3 fatty acids, but is not rich in Vitamins D and A. Be
sure to purchase a high quality brand such as Carlson's.
Testosterone
- some men with diabetes can benefit dramatically from bio-identical
testosterone replacement therapy, that can restore glucose and insulin
levels to normal range in a short time period. Testosterone is involved
with insulin metabolism along with many other vital functions. There
are simple tests for measuring total and free testosterone. Be sure to
rule out active prostate cancer before using testosterone replacement
therapy.
Water as a Treatment
for Diabetes - surprisingly, chronic
water dehydration could be a cause of diabetes in some individuals.
This can often be improved and in some cases, reversed by drinking 8 glasses
of water per day and engaging in daily moderate exercise, such as walking.
This simple formula has been advanced by Dr.
F. Batmanghelidj, M.D., Author of the book - Your Body's Many Cries for
Water. Published by - Global Health Solutions, Inc. P.O. Box 3189.

Salacia Oblinga -
from India is an herb that has a long history of use in Ayurvedic medicine.
Claims to safely reduce blood insulin levels by 29 percent and the post-meal
rise in blood sugar by 23 percent. These results are comparable to
prescription diabetes medications. Salacia works by binding with
certain enzymes and preventing them from turning carbohydrates into free
glucose, thus, reducing the need for insulin. Also increases the
beneficial HDL cholesterol, while lowering total cholesterol and triglycerides.
As a bonus, Salacia helps prevent the conversion of glucose into fats that
lead to obesity. Supplier - Botanika

Cinnamon/Clove - combination formulas available at some health food stores
Cinnamon -
1/2 - 1 teaspoon daily reduces blood sugar levels and cholesterol. 1/4
teaspoon, twice daily has been shown to lower blood sugar levels 18 to
29 percent, triglycerides as much as 30 percent, and total cholesterol
12 to 26 percent - after just 40 days. One source recommends mixing
cinnamon powder into foods, shakes, etc. while another authority states
that saliva de-activates the active ingredient in cinnamon. He recommends
taking a capsule form. One of the medical sources we researched claims that only a particular form of Cinnamon, called - Cinnamomum cassia - was the most effective in lowering blood sugar levels.
Cloves -
1/2 teaspoon daily reduces blood sugar levels and cholesterol. May
be mixed with cinnamon as suggested above. According to a study by
Dr. Alam Khan of Pakistan, 36 individuals with type 2 diabetes had the
following results: individuals took either 0, 1, 2, or 3 grams of
cloves for a period of 30 days. All of those taking cloves had significant
improvements. Those who took no cloves showed no improvements.
Those on cloves had an average decrease in glucose from 225 to 150 mg/dL,
Triglycerides went from 235 to 203 mg/dL. Total cholesterol decreased
from 273 to 239 mg./dL. LDL cholesterol decreased from 175 to 145
mg/dL. HDL remained the same.
Vinegar - research indicates that taking 2 tablespoons of vinegar PRIOR to a meal
dramatically reduces the spike in blood levels of glucose and insulin that
occur after eating a meal. Apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, balsamic
vinegar should all work the same way. Subjects diagnosed as pre-diabetic
had the best response (up to 50 percent drop in glucose within the first
hour after eating).Those with type 2 diabetes experienced an average 25
perecent drop in blood sugar levels. These results are comparable
to some anti-diabetes drugs.
Supplements that
help protect against diabetic complications in blood vessels, eyes and
nerves:
Evening primrose
or borage oil - 1,500mg.
Diabetes and Coffee -
caffeinated coffee has been shown to increase blood sugar levels from 8
to 26 percent, depending upon the time of day (9 percent after
breakfast, 15 percent after lunch and 26 percent after dinner)
Reference - Diabetes Care - 08;31:221-222. Caffeine triggers release of
adrenalin, which makes the cells less responsive to insulin. This
results in higher levels of blood sugar with all of the attendant
damage this can cause over a long term. Surprisingly, De-Caffeinated
coffee did not cause this effect in the studies. So, go ahead and enjoy
your occasional cup of coffee for its flavor and excellent anti-oxidant
benefits!

E-TEA -
is a special blend of Chinese Herbs in the form of a tea or capsules has
shown to be very effective for many individuals. When drinking the
tea, use three cups per day, one after each meal for the first week.
Then reduce to 2 cups per day following meals. Then, down to 1 cup
per day as improvement continues. With the capsules, use 1 capsule
twice per day (morning & evening) for 1 or 2 weeks. Then cut
down to 1 capsule per day. If results are very positive, one can
eliminate the tea entirely and see if the condition remains clear.

Body Oxygen - according to medical studies this formula
increases mitochondria by up to 25 percent. This unique formulation combines
yeast cells, fruit juices, amino acids and certain vitamins that stimulate
mitochondrial activity. According to the research of Dr. Siegfried Wolz,
the German physician who developed Body Oxygen. Mitochondria are
cell organelles (literally; organs of the cell) that serve as power plants,
processing nutrients and oxygen that feed the cells. But toxins and diseases
weaken mitochondria, often reducing cellular efficiency, as we grow older.
The results range from the typical signs of aging to chronic and debilitating
illnesses. Original Dr. Wolz formula - http://www.betterlife.com/prod_home_page.asp?prod_id=8722&source=slsgoogle
This claim has been
backed up by a European trial that showed Body Oxygen effectively increased
cellular respiration (oxygenation) in a study of 20,000 cancer patients.
The author of that study, Dr. Serge Jurasunas, believes that a daily dosage
of Body Oxygen may help prevent and treat the disorders caused by decreased
mitochondrial ATP production. Body Oxygen

Gallbladder - many
gallbladder problems can be alleviated by avoiding certain foods that
cause allergic reactions. This could be things like eggs, onions,
cooking oils or other foods. Periodic Gallbladder/Liver flushes can be
helpful in many cases. Basic instructions for this procedure can easily
be located on the internet. If you have already had your Gallbladder
removed, it is very important to replace the missing bile that is
normally collected in the gallbladder and released after a meal. The
solution for this is to take Bile Salt supplements daily. A good
formula is called Cholacol - from Standard Process. You can order this item from Village Green Apothecary - (800)869-9159.
Also, see - http://www.medicinenet.com/gallstones/article.htm for more
information about the gallbladder and its functions. The Gallbladder
performs many important functions for the body including: helping to
digest fats and all fat-soluble vitamins, It also helps to remove
toxins, bacteria and viruses from the body.
GERD / Acid Reflux / Heartburn - Gastroesophageal
Reflux Disease - a good natural remedy is deglycyrrhizinated licorice
(DGL). This herb increases production of protective mucous cells and
helps reduce inflammation. Look for DGL in health food stores or
on-Line. Eating smaller meal portions and avoiding irritating foods
will help you avoid acid reflux. Also, drink a glass of water 1/2 hour
before eating. Water is essential for rebuilding the protective mucous
lining of the stomach. Heartburn and related symptoms may actually be
caused by TOO LITTLE stomach acid. This situation is then worsened when
people consume over the counter antacids. When there is an
insufficiency of hydrochloric acid needed for proper digestion, it does
little good to inhibit the small amount of stomach acid that may be
remaining. One may find temporary relief by taking antacid medicines,
but the key is to restore the proper balance of hydrochloric acid. One
may take hydrochloric acid/betaine/pepsin supplements from the health
food store. However, it is best to have stomach acid function tested by
a competent doctor (not one who simply wants to place you on
prescription medicine to control your heartburn). This condition is
nearly always curable with the proper treatment. Another great remedy for too little stomach acid, is the Standard Process product called Zypan - available from Total Health Discount Vitamins - 800-283-2833 - www.totalhealthdiscountvitamins.com Sometimes,
excess stomach acid is caused by an over-excited Vagus Nerve and this
can be caused by factors such as Hiatal Hernia, deficiency of alkaline
minerals in the diet and chronic stress.
Headache - Migraine
- Cluster Headaches
Migra Spray
- is a homeopathic remedy that is very effective in relieving
migraines. In tests, 88% of patients reported relief in a little as
seven minutes. In a clinical trial, 90 percent of patients using Migra
Spray on a continual daily basis, report complete elimination of their
migraines. Available over the counter at major health food stores.

years, said to reduce migraine frequency by 50 percent and reduce the intensity.
Many suppliers on the internet - http://www.herbspro.com/custom/xq/asp/pageid.241/qx/Specialty1.asp
Magnesium - magnesium concentrations affect neurotransmitters and receptors in the
brain. Research suggests that about half of migraine sufferers have
low levels of magnesium. Supplemental magnesium has been shown to
reduce the frequency of migraines. Suggested
dosage - 600 mg. daily taken for up to several months. Use Magnesium
Citrate on its own and not a blend of magnesium and calcium. Magnesium
can be depleted by alcohol, coffee, carbonated beverages (phosphates in
soft drinks bind with the magnesium and flush it from the body).
CoQ10
- a study involving 42 migraine patients in Belgium found that 300 mg.
per day of CoQ10 dramatically lowered the frequency of headaches.
(Neurology 05;64:713-715). Many prescription medications deplete CoQ10
including: anti-depressants, blood pressure lowering drugs,
cholesterol-lowering drugs, diruetics and anti-diabetic drugs.
Pulsed Magnetic
Fields - for treatment of migraine.
Read this article on Web-MD about the work of Dr. Yousef Mohammad, Professore
of Neurology at Ohio State University Medical Center http://www.webmd.com/content/article/124/115523.htm To
summarize, Dr. Mohammad has developed a magnetic coil that is applied to
the back of the head. The device takes 15 seconds to charge up and
then it administers two magnetic pulses. When an electrical current
runs through a coil, a magnetic field is created. This easily penetrates
into the body, where a portion of the energy is converted back into electrical
current (the body being a conductor). The electrical pulses short-circuit
the migraine by halting the uncontrolled firing of neurons on the pain
nerve endings of blood vessels surrounding the brain. Dr. Mohammad
is designing a battery-operated device that should be available in 2007.
This concept is actually not new at all. There are numerous instruments
available today (without a prescription) that one could experiment with.
Check the internet for Pulsed Magnetic Therapy and Magnetic Pulsers.
Hair Loss
Directory of websites
for hair loss information, products, etc. - http://www.forhairloss.com/hairloss/
Low
Level Lasers can be effective in restoring hair loss, along with
shampoos that block DHT in the scalp. Naturally, individual results
will vary. Hair loss can have many different causes. In some
individuals, there can be inadequate hydrochloric acid production in
the stomach that prevents the proper breakdown and absorption of
vitamins and minerals in food. This can lead to a host of physical
problems, including poor hair health. Hydrochloric acid with betaine
supplements are available in health food stores, but it is best to have
levels of stomach acids checked by a doctor before using these type of
supplements. Otherwise, you could be spending money on unnecessary
supplements. Other contributing factors may include low thyroid,
hormone imbalance (especially in post-menopausal women with diffused
hair loss pattern) and simply a genetic predisposition.

Heavy Metal Detox
- Lead - Mercury - Aluminum - Iron
When using various methods for detoxing, it is always better to make
sure that the toxins that are released by the action of the herbs or
supplements, etc. are actually bound up properly for elimination from
the body. There are some substances, herbs, foods, chelation formulas,
etc. that are very good for releasing the toxins from the tissues, but
then they may recirculate in the body because they are not being bound
up with a proper binding substance. So, they can sometimes allow the
toxins to re-enter the tissues. If your formula does not include a
binding element, then you can try using a Pascalite/Bentonite Clay that
is exceptional in its absorption properties. The direct source for
Pascalite/Bentonite Clay is from Pascalite Inc. PO Box 104, Worland,
Wyoming 82401. Tel. 307-347-3872 or www.pascalite.com Typical dosages
are from 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon daily. Follow the suppliers
instructions. Clay is known to have a negative electrical charge,
whereas most toxins carry a positive charge, so they are attracted and
bind together for effective elimination.

important step in any detox, anti-cancer or wellness program. Product information and ordering - http://www.zeolitesupport.com/
Cilantro - the common grocery store cooking herb. The suggested method is
to eat at least 1/4 cup of tightly-packed fresh cilantro stems and leaves
per day for two weeks. This will release toxic methals from the tissues.
In order to prevent their reabsorption in the Colon, take 1 to 2 teaspoons
of bentonite clay (Pascalite is a good brand), mixed with water - 3 times
per day between meals. This formula was reported in Dr. David Williams
monthly health newsletter - ALTERNATIVES - from Aug. 2003, Vol10, No.2
A published study
on using Cilantro for detoxing heavy metals was written by Dr. Yoshiaki
Omura of the Heart Research Foundation in New York. The original
article was published in the Journal called - Acupunct Electrother Res
96;21(2):pp. 133-60
Chlorella - is an ancient fresh water, green algae that has amazing health properties.
It has the ability to bind to heavy metals and eliminate them from the
body. See the Sun-Chlorella website for more information on this
fantastic product. http://www.sunchlorellausa.com/
Iodine -
iodine displaces heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic,
aluminum bromide and fluoride. Why You Need it, Why You Can't Live Without
It, 2nd Edition, by Dr. David Browstein, M.D. Order - (888)647-5616.
Dr. Guy Abraham, former professor of obstetrics, gynecology, and endocrinology
at the UCLA School of Medicine has studied Iodine for many years.
He believes the RDA - recommended daily allowance for Iodine is much too
low at 150 micrograms per day for adults. Dr. Abraham recommends
an optimum level of 12.5 milligrams per day. (the average daily intake
of Iodine in Japan is 13.8 milligrams). Heavy Metal detoxing may
require temporarily higher loading dosages. Order Dr. Browstein's
book or refer to other competent guidelines before using iodine for detoxing
heavy metals. Doing this the right way will avoid Thyroid health
complications, time and money.
Different tissues
in the body prefer different forms of Iodine. For example, the Thyroid
Gland concentrates the Iodide form, while the Breasts concentrate
the Iodine form. Therefore, both forms are needed for the
body. Sources - Dr. Abraham's formula
called - Iodoral - 1 table daily contains
5 milligrams of iodine and 7.5 milligrams of iodide, which is the ideal
combination. This is the same ratio as found in Lugol's Solution (available
by prescription only). Iodoral is available from compounding pharmacies,
some health stores, and from Tahoma Clinic
Dispensary - (425)264-0051 or http://www.tahoma-clinic.com
Another formula is called Triodide (in liquid form). Triodid is also
available from Tahoma Clinic and some Health Stores. Triodide
is combined with a sea vegetable called bladderwrack, used to treat thyroid
problems. Taking large quantities of iodine
for extended periods can suppress thyroid function. It is important
to monitor your Thyroid levels with your physician when using long-term
iodine supplementation.
Malic Acid - is a heavy metal chelator that removes aluminum
from the brain. 500 milligrams 3 times daily for no longer than 3
weeks. www.life-enhancement.com The ideal dosage as used in medical studies was 24 mg. day. Length
of patient trials was 3 to 6 months.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid - Mercury
Detox - one recommended protocol is: 1/8 to 1/2 mg. of ALA for every
pound of body weight, every 3 hours for 3 days and 2 nights. This would
equal 20 to 80 mg. of ALA every 3 hours for a 160 pound man. This could
be repeated once a year as a maintenance program. To prevent
re-absorption of released heavy metals, one can take a supplement of
bentonite clays or chlorella (blue-green algae).
Curcumin - is a chelator of iron and copper (250 to 500mg. day).
Green Tea - the bioflavenoid in green tea called catechin has been shown to reduce iron absorption by over 60 percent.
Iron Detox with IP-6 (Phytic Acid) - IP-6
is derived from rice bran that is known to enhance immune function. It
can also effectively bind with heavy metals and minerals including
iron, copper, calcium, lead, cadmium and mercury. IP-6 does not remove
necessary minerals such as sodium, potassium or magnesium. IP-6 is
considered extremely safe. Being a chelating agent, it should not be
taken on a long-term basis as this could lead to a deficiency in iron
or calcium. Pregnant women, children, or anemic individuals should not
take IP-6. Generally recommended dosage is 1,000 to 2,000 mg. daily for
30 to 60 days, between meals. Note: if you are iron anemic, do not use
this protocol as IP-6 chelates iron.
MCP - Modified Citrus Pectin
- is a powerful chelator of heavy metals including lead, mercury and
arsenic. Recommended brand - Pectasol - by EcoNugenics -
http://www.pectasol.com
Resveretrol - is not a chelator of iron, but is one of the strongest anti-oxidants known to protect against iron-induced free radicals. Resveretrol -
the heart-healthy component found in red grapes and responsible for the
health benefits of red wine. Resveretrol offers many benefits for
the heart and circulatory system. Laboratory research shows that
Resveretrol promotes the breakdown of beta-amyloid plaques associated with
Alzheimers. Note that this was observed in a laboratory setting and
not in human or animal testing. The reference for this research
is - (J Biol Chem 05;280(45):37377-37382). Sources - Longevinex brand offers capsules sealed in nitrogen to prevent oxidation - http://www.longevinex.com
Selenium - 100 to 200 micrograms per day helps to neutralize mercury within
the tissues and helps remove it from the body.
Schizandra - a berry from China that has powerful liver detoxification capabilities
Silicon

Canker Sores - HPX2 -
a member of the herpes family. These can be treated with a combination
of particular vitamins, minerals and amino acid. A specially formulated
product is called HPX2 and is available from Bio-Tech Pharmacal - (800) 345-1199 . http://www.bio-tech-pharm.com
Many people suffer from cold sores that are often brought on by stress,
lack of sleep or even some food triggers. The amino acid, Lysine is
effective for many people in helping prevent an outbreak and it reduces
the healing time. The mineral - Selenium - inhibits virus replication
and will suppress herpes. 250 to 300 micrograms twice a day is
sufficient. Selenium can be toxic at high doses over 1,500 micrograms
daily. Many multi-vitamin and mineral formulas already include some
amount of selenium so be aware of total intake. Good natural sources
include Brazil Nuts, which contain the highest food source of selenium.
Hemorrhoids
Witch Hazel - will
help soothe and shrink the hemorrhoids. Put extract of witch hazel on a
wad of cotton and secure to the hemorrhoids at night. If you can't manage
this procedure, wipe the affected area with witch hazel. Use until cured.
Iodine - is very good at eliminating hemorrhoids. We recommend using a form called SSKI
(saturated solution of potassium iodide). Since it can cause a burning
sensation, use it with a carrier oil such as flaxseed or olive. Mix 20
drops of SSKI in an ounce of oil and apply the solution to the affected
area at bedtime. Because iodine stains, wear bed clothes that you won't
worry about (your skin will stain, but that will go away).

chambers - http://hbotofaz.org/resources/clinics/index.html
Hyperbaric Oxygen
chambers can work absolute miracles for stroke recovery. The hyperbaric
oxygen chamber infuses the patient with 100% oxygen, under slight pressure.
This forces the oxygen deep into every cell of the body, brain, etc.
Recent studies show that hyperbaric oxygen therapy stimulates a massive
production of STEM CELLS within the body (even for older individuals).
This may account for some of the amazing healing that takes place.
Insomnia
Melatonin - 1 to 3 milligrams is generally considered a safe dosage to assist getting
to sleep. Your body naturally produces melatonin. It may even
offer anti-cancer protection
L-Typtophan - (a natural Serotonin precursor) up to 1,000 mg. taken about an hour before
bedtime
5-HTP - (a Serotonin precursor) - 100 to 200 mg. taken an hour before bedtime.
Blue Light Filtering Glasses
- melatonin is the brain hormone that allows us to get a good night's
sleep. It is manufactured in the Pineal Gland and the hormone is
released under conditions of darkness. Due to artificial lighting, many
people have a Melatonin deficiency and have trouble falling asleep.
Many people turn to addictive sleep aids for relief of insomnia.
Researchers have recently discovered that only the BLUE spectrum of
light inhibits Melatonin production. If the blue spectrum is filtered
out or blocked up to 3 hours prior to bed time, the brain gets a head
start on producing Melatonin for a good night's sleep. This is the
concept behind a new product called - Low Blue Light Glasses - . The
glasses do give a yellowish tinge to everything, but the advantages
over taking addictive drugs should be obvious. Melatonin is getting a
lot attention for its role in protecting against cancer, depression and
more. There are also lights for the home to replace regular bulbls as
well as a blue light filtered panel that is designed for the baby's
room. Low Blue Lights - https://www.lowbluelights.com/index.asp

Una de Gato. NOTE: these are special preparations of Cat's Claw that are
devoid chemicals called tetracyclic oxindole alkaloids (TOA) that can negate
the positive effects of the herb. Sometimes Cat's Claw is not enough
to do the total job and some doctors are adding an extract of Chinese wormwood
called - Artemisinin. Available from Nutricology at www.nutricology.com
(800-545-9960). It is important to seek the assistance of a licensed
medical practitioner experienced with Lyme Disease when using these herbs. Find

levels (see Glutathione above for more info.)
Coffee - a recently published medical survey indicates that Coffee appears to
reduce the chances of developing alcohol-related Cirrhosis of the Liver.
1 cup per day had beneficial preventive effects, while the largest preventive
effect came from 4 cups per day. The survey results were not considered
conclusive enough to make recommendations regarding daily coffee intake
and further research was recommended. Check for various articles
on this topic by searching under - liver disease+coffee - or similar search
terms. Remember, coffee is a diuretic and can contribute to cellular
de-hydration. One should not rely exclusively on coffee, tea, fruit
juices, sodas, alcohol, etc. for daily water requirements. Drinking
8 glasses (2qts.) of plain water per day is recommended for proper hydration
and functioning of all systems of the body
