The Apricot Kernel Anti-Cancer Theory

I read about this and knew I had to share it. Imagine being able to cure or avoid cancer!! Read on!

The Land of Hunza

The Apricot Kernel Anti-Cancer Theory
Do these kernels have important protective powers which in some way play an important role in the extraordinary health and longevity of the Hunza people? The evidence suggest they very well might. Cancer and arthritis are both very rare among the Taos (New Mexico) Pueblo Indians. Their traditional beverages is made from the group kernels of cherries, peaches and apricots. Robert G. Houston told PREVENTION that he enjoyed this beverage when he was in New Mexico gathering material for a book dealing with blender shakes based on an Indian recipe. Into a glass of milk or juice, he mixed a tablespoon of honey with freshly ground apricot kernels (1/4 of an ounce or two dozen kernels) which had been roasted for 10 minutes at 300. It is vitally impotent to roast the kernels first. Houston points out, "in order to insure safety when you are using the pits in such quantities." roasting destroys enzymes which could upset your stomach if you eat too many at on time. In any event the drink was so delicious that Houston kept having it daily. On the third day of drinking this concoction, Houston says that a funny thing happened. Two little benign skin growths on his arm , which formerly were pink had turned brown. The next day, he noticed that the growths were black and shriveled. On the seventh morning, the smaller more recent growths had vanished completely and the larger one. about the size of a grain of rice, had simply fallen off.

Houston says that two of his friends have since tried the apricot shakes and report similar elimination of benign skin growths in one or two weeks.

sodium bicarbonate, baking soda, arm & hammer, arm and hammer, flu, influenza, swine flu, H1N1, flu remedy, flu remediesIn today’s modern world of medicine the FDA just will not let companies that sell products make medical claims about them unless they have been tested at great expense, and approved as a drug. But this was not always the case.

In a 1924 booklet published by the Arm & Hammer Soda Company, the company starts off saying, “The proven value of Arm & Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda as a therapeutic agent is further evinced by the following evidence of a prominent physician named Dr. Volney S. Cheney, in a letter to the Church & Dwight Company:

“In 1918 and 1919 while fighting the ‘Flu’ with the U. S. Public Health Service it was brought to my attention that rarely any one who had been thoroughly alkalinized with bicarbonate of soda contracted the disease, and those who did contract it, if alkalinized early, would invariably have mild attacks.”

Recommended dosages from the Arm and Hammer Company for colds and influenza back in 1925 were:

* During the first day take six doses of half teaspoonful of Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at about two hour intervals
* During the second day take four doses of half teaspoonful of Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at the same intervals
* During the third day take two doses of half teaspoonful of Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water morning and evening, and thereafter half teaspoonful in glass of cool water each morning until cold is cured

Vitamin D Once Again for Flu

I do not need to add anything to this.

How to Prevent the Flu -- as Easy as 1, 2, 3...

THE Number One Way to Conquer a Cold or Flu: Vitamin D

Vitamin D is an amazingly effective antimicrobial agent, producing 200 to 300 different antimicrobial peptides in your body that kill bacteria, viruses and fungi.

In the United States, the late winter average vitamin D level is only about 15-18 ng/ml, which is considered a very serious deficiency state. It’s estimated that over 95 percent of U.S. senior citizens may be deficient, along with 85 percent of the American public.

In 2009, a team of researcher’s from Children’s Hospital Boston analyzed blood samples taken from 5,000 children under age 12 and found that nearly one out of five children in the U.S. have low blood levels of less than 50 nanomoles per liter, the level recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. They also found that two out of three children have a level below 75 nmol/L--which is still insufficient, based on most of the research coming out today.

No wonder colds and flu run rampant each year.

The best source for vitamin D is direct sun exposure. But for many of us, this just isn’t practical during the winter. The next best thing to sunlight is the use of a safe indoor tanning device. If neither natural nor artificial sunlight is an option, then using oral supplements is your best bet.

Remarkably, researchers have found that 2,000 IU of vitamin D per day abolished seasonal influenza. This is somewhat surprising, as it is half the dose of what most adults need to achieve ideal levels of vitamin D

Warning on Toothpaste!

This is a very important article to read, especially if you have children! My husband and I stopped using toothpaste a long time ago. We brush with hydrogen peroxide. I have also heard you should put baking soda with H2O2 to brush. And for whitening teeth, brush with sesame oil!!

The Dark Truth About Fluoride | Healthy and Green Living

Go into your bathroom and grab any tube of toothpaste within reach. If it is a tube of fluoride toothpaste (as the vast majority are) it will, by law, have this warning printed somewhere on the tube: “If you accidentally swallow more than used for brushing, seek professional help or contact a poison control center immediately.” In this case, “professional help” likely means a physician or a local ER, and “poison control center” essentially means start praying because you (or your child) just swallowed a bunch of poison.

Pregnant Mothers - DO NOT Take the H1N1 Vaccine!

No more needs to be said!

Swine Flu Alert -- Shocking Vaccine Miscarriage Horror Stories

U.S. health authorities have made pregnant women one of the highest priority groups for getting the H1N1 swine flu vaccine, but is it actually safe for pregnant women and their babies?

In fact, the package inserts for the swine flu vaccines actually say that the safety of these vaccines for pregnant women has not been established. And miscarriage reports from pregnant women who have taken the H1N1 swine flu vaccine are starting to pour in from all over the nation.

The link below contains stories that will shock and anger you. If you are a pregnant mother, please do not take the H1N1 swine flu vaccine. Instead, do everything that you can do to avoid public places and make sure to wash your hands more than you usually would. Research the many great natural ways there are for fighting the flu.

Acne and Sesame Seed Oil

I received this information in an email from a good friend. Fascinating!

"Here's one for you.......Jo has always been plagued by persistent acne. She has tried everything, she has been to dermatologists, she has been given hormone tablets, all to no avail. It was the blight of her life. My mother who is a vegetarian and very into natural remedies, told her to stop washing her face and only use sesame oil. she said to massage in sesame oil at night and then hold a warm washcloth over her face. In the morning she was to only wipe her face over with the warm washcloth. After one month, Jo was and remains acne free. I googled and found this http://www.youthingstrategies.com/qualities.htm

So anyone you know who has acne, tell them about this. The youthingstrategies.com tells about many of the properties of sesame oil!

An Aspirin a Day - No!

Just in from my email!

Know someone who's still singing the misguided praises of an aspirin a day to keep the heart attack away (like, say, the American Heart Association...)?

You'll probably want to forward this to them immediately.

Because, try as they might to ignore it, the evidence is really piling up. The second study this year has shown that an aspirin a day could have absolutely no benefit. Yep, that's right--none.

The latest study is a meta-analysis of diabetic patients (published online in BMJ). In it, researchers found absolutely no statistically significant differences in the risk of major cardiovascular events or mortality between patients who were taking a daily aspirin and patients who weren't. They also found "inconsistent" evidence of harm from aspirin use. An accompanying editorial warned against recommending treatments without supporting evidence. Seems pretty obvious to me.

Earlier this year, the Lancet published a similar analysis questioning the use of aspirin for heart event prevention. And the mainstream let it quietly slip through the cracks. But the evidence is getting pretty hard to ignore.

Even CNN has gotten on board, with an article exclaiming that the risks of daily aspirin therapy may outweigh the benefits. Of course, the American Heart Association hasn't updated their recommendations--or even acknowledged any of this research at all.

It's a shame, really--all those mainstreamers falling in line without even knowing if their exalted therapy really works. All of those trusting patients, putting their health on the line...for nothing.

I mean, we're talking serious dangers here. We've all known for a long time about the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. But there's more. I told you back in May about the dangers of brain "microbleeds" associated with aspirin ("Yet more bleeding risk associated with aspirin," 5/18/09).

These microbleeds are connected with decreased brain function, hemorrhage, and a host of diseases including Alzheimer's. Back then, "experts" proclaimed that this new finding shouldn't change anything--that the benefits of daily aspirin therapy far outweigh the risks.

And now we find there could be absolutely no benefit at all. Amazing.

So what does Dr. Wright recommend for actually protecting your heart? His seal of approval goes to good old fish oil. It does a literal "lube job" on your platelets, so they can't stick together. It also reduces the risk of sudden cardiac death, reduces abnormally high triglycerides, increases HDL ("good") cholesterol and decreases abnormally high levels of fibrinogen (another independent cardiovascular risk factor), and reduces your risk of "re-stenosis" (re-clogging) of your coronary arteries.

He recommends at least 1 tablespoon of fish oil every day--if your cardiovascular risk is elevated, 1 tablespoon twice daily. Cod liver oil is best, since it also supplies a substantial amount of vitamin D. Don't forget to take 400 IU of vitamin E (mixed tocopherols) daily for each tablespoonful of fish oil. And make sure that the brand of fish oil you use has no heavy metals, especially mercury, and is free of other toxins.

The American Heart Association may be turning a blind eye, but the American Diabetes Association plans to readjust their guidelines--they're going to recommend a daily aspirin to only the highest risk patients.

Curing Hernias Without Surgery

A friend of mine has had a hernia for awhile. He does not want surgery but doesn't know what to do. I told him I would google it for him and let him know. I googled hernia, maria treben. This is what I got. Absolutely amazing!

http://www.mariatrebenherbs.com/shepherds_purse.htm

A woman from Lower Austria wrote: "During a lecture I asked you about hernia. While the Shepherd's Purse tincture was macerating, I applied compresses of Swedish Bitters. Then I started to massage with Shepherd's Purse tincture and drank 4 cups of Lady's Mantle tea daily. I did this for 6 weeks. Since, as a farmer's wife, I could not take it easy - it was harvest time - I wore a support. After 12 days of treatment there was no sign of the hernia, although I still felt pain. 2 months later, it too was gone." The since deceased medical superintendent Dr. Erich Roehling of the sanatorium near Garmisch, Bavaria, who had visited me once, read this letter and was visibly impressed. He thought that from a medical point of view hernia could only be corrected by an operation. Internally 4 cups of Lady's Mantle tea, and Shepherd's Purse tincture used externally as a rub or massage are effective (the massage is done from the genitals up to the abdomen). I want to emphasize that the tincture has to be prepared from freshly picked Shepherd's Purse. For such serious muscular disorders only fresh herbs give swift and sure relief!

and......

IMAGINE being able to cure a hernia without an operation - believe it = it can happen!!!

Now to find, swedish bitters (in health food stores in Canada), Shepherd's Purse tincture and Lady's Mantle tea???!!!

If any of you out there try this and it works, let me know. I will also let you know if my friend can get his hands on these items and whether or not it works for him.

Potent Anti-Viral Tea

This is from one of my favorite sites - care2.com. No more needs to be said. Enjoy and stay healthy!

Potent Anti-Viral Tea | Healthy and Green Living

Ingredients

Ginger helps stimulate a therapeutic sweat. Studies also show that it helps fight against bacterial infections that may develop as a result of the viral infection. Lemon juice does the same thing, warding off secondary bacterial infections and giving a whopping amount of Vitamin C. Apple cider (and apple cider vinegar), is extremely rich in minerals and has been employed since ancient times for this reason.

Step One
One cup of peeled, chopped and minced fresh ginger
10 cups of water

Step Two
Apple cider (1/2 cup per serving)
Lemon juice

Directions
Peel and mince the ginger (a food processor makes little work of this job). Simmer the minced ginger in 10 cups of water for an hour or so. Strain.

When ready to have a serving place 1/2 cup of the strained ginger water in a pan with 1/2 cup of apple cider and a squirt or two of lemon juice. Heat and serve.

Swine Flu Vaccine Can Kill

This just in!

Canada: The Killer H1N1 Vaccine
By Michel Chossudovsky

URL of this article: www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=16192
Global Research, November 20, 2009

"It is a serious thing [vaccine] that has the potential to kill" according to Dr. Neil Rau, an infectious disease expert, in a CTV interview, but do not worry: "leading experts insist, the benefits of the H1N1 vaccine vastly outweigh the risks" (Swine Flu Support Center, emphasis added)

A new development in the H1N1 Vaccine Saga is unfolding in Canada.

Whereas health officials are pushing for an acceleration of the vaccination program, there is evidence of so-called "unusual adverse reactions" including three recently recorded deaths directly resulting from the vaccine.

In the meantime, health authorities have called for the withdrawal of 170,000 (higher risk) doses of the vaccine produced by GlaxoSmithKline. The initiative, of which the importance is being downplayed, is said to have come from the manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline, which expressed concern on higher than normal adverse reactions to the vaccine.

"Canada's H1N1 flu vaccine manufacturer has asked the provinces to temporarily discontinue vaccinating Canadians from a lot of vaccine shipped in October due to a higher risk of adverse reactions, says a Manitoba health official.

Dr. Joel Kettner, Manitoba's chief public health officer, said Thursday that GlaxoSmithKline has asked that the October batch be taken out of circulation because it produced serious and immediate anaphylactic reactions in one out of 20,000 vaccinations, compared with one out of 100,000 in other shipments.

"We've been asked by the manufacturer GSK to not use this vaccine at this time pending further investigation," he said. (Winnipeg Free Press, 20 November 2009)

The government is involved in a cover-up. The initial headlines stated "more than 100,000 doses", but then read on, the number is 170,000 doses.

The CTV report admits that "it is a serious thing, it has the potential to kill".

Too Late to Withdraw the 170,000 Defective Doses

The question is whether the doses can be withdrawn or whether they have already been used. The first news reports from Manitoba indicate that:

Of the 63,000 doses shipped [to Manitoba], only 630 remained unused by the four regional health authorities in Manitoba that received them. (Ibid)

This report would suggest that the risky GSK vaccine doses have already been used.

A subsequent report confirms that out of the 63,000 doses, 900 unused doses of the H1N1 were withdrawn by health authorities "after health authorities received word other vaccines from the same batch have been causing higher rates of allergic reactions than expected." (Flu vaccine batch pulled in Manitoba, Winnipeg Sun, 20 November 2009).

The question is what happened to remaining 62,100 doses of the higher risk vaccine batch, which were used to vaccinate people in Manitoba?

Has there been a followup regarding those people in Manitoba who received the higher risk H1N1 vaccine injection.

Manitoba Health authorities casually confirm, in this regard, that "most of the vaccine Manitoba received from the suspect lot had already been used by the time the province received the alert on Wednesday" [November 18, 2009]. (Winnipeg Free Press, 20 November 2009, emphasis added)

Manitoba and Quebec : Three deaths resulting from the H1N1 Vaccine

The news reports have highlighted deaths allegedly resulting from the H1N1 flu, while obfuscating several recorded deaths resulting directly from the vaccine. These vaccine related deaths are occurring at the very outset of the vaccination program,

According to CTV News, 20 November 2009) "The province is currently investigating two deaths -- both adults who died within seven days of getting the H1N1 shot" (Family questions if H1N1 shot caused Manitoba woman's death, November 20, 2009, emphasis added).

Manitoba officials acknowledge 69 "adverse events" after people received the swine flu shot, including the two deaths. (CBC.ca report, 17 November 2009)

However, unless the families speak out, the authorities will not provide details. CTV interviewed the family of one of the victims. No details on the other death in Manitoba are available:

"The family of a 38-year-old Manitoba woman who died five days after receiving the H1N1 vaccine are looking for answers as to why it happened.

Soo Lee Wong and her daughter, Angela Truong, both got the H1N1 shot on November 5th.

The family says Wong, who had diabetes, started getting sick a day after getting vaccinated and died a few days later.

Doctors told the family Wong died of a blood infection. More tests will be done to see if the vaccine played any role.

Wong's husband, Thoon Truong, is also caring for his seven-year-old daughter Angela, who has been in the hospital with a fever and swollen, painful legs.

He wants to know whether the two cases related to the vaccine or to something else.

The province is currently investigating two deaths -- both adults who died within seven days of getting the H1N1 shot.

Although it's still early, Manitoba's chief medical officer of health Dr. Joel Kettner says immunizations were not likely the cause of the deaths. CTV News | Family questions if H1N1 shot caused Manitoba woman's death, November 20, 2009)

It should be noted that these two deaths in Manitoba may have been associated with the injection of the higher risk H1N1 vaccine doses, which health authorities had called for withdrawal.

Quebec: One Death
An 80-year-old Quebec man was reported dead after taking the H1N1 Swine Flu vaccination. Health officials have dismissed the case, "stating that it's too soon to link the death and vaccine." Quebec man dies after taking H1N1 vaccine, Digital Journal, 18 November 2009).

The Quebec health authorities have refused to provide details:

"Quebec's Director of Public Health Protection, Dr. Horacio Arruda, did not know why the man took the vaccine and that final test results, which are expected to come in December, will determine whether or not the man died from the vaccine.

Canada.com reports the man died in the last three weeks but provincial officials declined to reveal details, citing confidentiality concerns. Arruda has said that most allergic reactions occur right away, which is the reason why many patients are asked to stay in the centers, "We can't say there is a causal association between the death and the flu shot."

Nevertheless, Arruda is confident that the death will not discourage people from taking the vaccine but urged that serious reactions to the H1N1 shot are rare, "I understand that everyone is worried."" (Quebec man dies after taking H1N1 vaccine, Digital Journal, 18 November 2009)

The statements by senior health officials are notoriously ambiguous: while they concur that: "there is no evidence the vaccine is dangerous.", they nonetheless acknowledge the deaths resulting from the vaccine (Statement of Quebec's Director of Public Health Protection, Dr. Horacio Arruda, (The Canadian Press: Quebec health officials investigating possible death from H1N1 vaccine. November 18, 2009).

Cell Phones and Tumors!

Calling in a warning - This came to me in an email. Everyone out there using cell phones a lot (most of us), get yourselves a hands-free ear piece! Have a look at what Dr. Mercola says about it here and read the 5 Ways to Help You Minimize Cell Phone Radiation Emissions: http://products.mercola.com/blue-tube-headset/

A major study run by the World Health Organization found that long-term use of cell phones may present a "significantly increased risk" for brain tumors.

The research included 12,800 people in 13 nations over 10 years. Six of the eight studies in the project found a link between the use of cellular phones and gliomas – the most common type of brain tumor.

One study even found that heavy cell phone users are 39 percent more likely to get these tumors.

This new research flies in the face of what the electronics industry has been saying for years... but that's not really surprising, is it?

And while the increased risk of brain tumors is the worst of the news... it's not the only danger revealed by this and other recent studies.

Long-term use of a cell phone has also been linked to hearing loss and inner-ear damage, even in people who use the devices for as little as an hour a day. Signs to look for: warmth in the ears, ringing, or a sensation that your ear is "full." If you experience any of that, make your next call to your doctor... and then shut the phone off.

Several studies, including research in 2006 and again in 2008, found a link between cell phone use and low sperm count and quality. The 2006 study found that the more you USED the phone (not just had it on your hip), the greater the likelihood that your sperm won't be swimming the way they should.

A six-year study found that cell phones could weaken the pelvic bone in men. Turkish researchers found that men who carried cell phones on their belts all day had slightly lower bone density on the side where the phones were kept.

While the difference was not enough to raise alarms on its own, it makes you wonder what a longer study might find.

For many of us – especially those of us who are older – the news is worrying enough... particularly if you've grown overly attached to you phone.

But our children and grandchildren are the ones I'm really worried about. They're the first generation to grow up with access to these devices from the cradle to the grave. And with more homes giving up traditional landlines entirely in favor of cell phones, it's second nature for them to use these electronics without thinking.

And forget teenagers... We already know how much time they spend on the phone.

So, should you bury your cell phone out in the yard?

Maybe not... if you really need it. But in those cases, use it the way most people did 10 or 15 years ago: very rarely, for emergencies or unusual situations. Use a hands-free earpiece or speakerphone if you can.

And keep them off limits for kids – period. Even your teenagers, except on the occasion when they're out on their own and need a way to reach you in an emergency.

Expert Pediatrician Exposes Vaccine Myths

If you have children, please read this entire article. Dr. Palevsky says:

“In medical school, the mentors that I had saw children in their practices in the 40s, 50s and all the way up to the 80s getting these flu-like illnesses who were properly treated with rest, fluids and proper supplementation.

Those kids had developmental growth spurts after the illnesses were over.

There is something to say for these viral illnesses that impart a certain boosting of the immune system of your children. And if we’re not letting them have these illnesses, what are we doing to their immune systems? Aren’t we actually hampering their overall health?”

Expert Pediatrician Exposes Vaccine Myths

How a Conventionally Trained Physician Accepts that Vaccines Can Cause Harm

Dr. Palevsky began his investigation in earnest about 10 years ago because parents came to him with complaints, worries, and concerns that something had happened to their children after they were vaccinated.

Interestingly, this is the same way that I became enlightened about vaccines -- through the concern of a very patient mother whose family I was taking care of. She gently persisted in showing me the evidence and thank God I listened!

Tragically, most doctors are far too arrogant to even consider that there is any possibility that there might be something wrong with vaccines.

Most pediatricians are indoctrinated to simply tell parents that anything related to a bad outcome from a vaccine is a mere coincidence. But how come there are so many of these “coincidences”?

Says Palevsky,

“It is heartbreaking, because I see many of these kids who were developmentally normal, who were doing well, who were speaking, then whose voices and eye contacts were lost, who went into seizures, who developed asthma and allergies, and they had nowhere to go because they’re doctors told them that they don’t know what they’re talking about. These kids are real.

The literature is showing that there are changes in the immune system of children who are vaccinated, especially if we vaccinate them before one year of age or even at one day of age.

The literature is there. It’s good scientific literature, and it shows that more and more of these kids who are suffering from chronic illness are suffering from impairments of their immune system.

Whether vaccines are causative or contributory, the literature is showing that there is a role that vaccines are playing in creating the groundwork for these children’s immune systems to start to show signs of impairment and destruction.

… When I look at the studies that the American Academy of Pediatrics and the CDC put out, saying that there’s no correlation between vaccination and autism or vaccinations and asthma, I have to say that the studies just don’t hold up to the scientific standards.

You can’t have 25 children in a study and then report that this proves that no children who get autism have any correlation to being injured by vaccines. This is what the media does: they take these conclusions, put it right out in front of the newspapers and say, “Vaccines don’t cause autism.”

When you really look at the studies – and there’s not a proper control group and there’s only 25 people – you can’t make a grand, generalized statement about a general population because you’ve studied 25 children.”

Effective, Non-Toxic Treatments for Cancer

Startling information about chemo and how deadly it is. Read the entire article.

Early studies at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center In New York showed that radiotherapy was deadly and that patients who received NO radiation lived longer than those who were irradiated.15

Most cancer patients in this country die of chemotherapy. Chemotherapy does not eliminate breast, colon or lung cancers. The fact has been documented for over a decade.... Women with breast cancer are likely to die faster with chemotherapy than without it.”18


Dr. Hardin Jones, Professor of medical physics at the University of California at Berkeley, analyzed cancer survival statistics for 25 years. In 1969, at an American Cancer Society (ACS) meeting, he said that untreated patients do not die sooner than patients receiving orthodox treatment, and in many cases they live longer. This negative assessment was subsequently supported by three other studies done by other researchers. No study has ever refuted these findings.5

Over the course of time, the AMA has denounced midwifery, selfcare, optometry, homeopathy*, osteopathy, acupuncture and lay analysis as being dangerous, fraudulent, or both.

* A long-established medical profession in Europe

“The majority of cancers cannot be cured by radiation because the dose of X rays required to kill all the cancer cells would also kill the patient. 11

Professor John Cairns, Harvard University School of Public Health, 1985

Chemotherapy, Radiation treatment

Effective non-toxic treatments for cancer...

By Rev. Barbara Clearbridge
SUPPRESSION OF FACTS BY RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS AND GOVERNMENTS
“Despite the public’s support and growing interest in nontoxic, noninvasive alternative approaches, the medical establishment has waged a fierce campaign against such therapies, labeling them quackery.... Official medicine pours billions of dollars into narrow research supporting chemotherapy, radiation and surgery as the major weapons in ‘the war on cancer.’ That war has been a total failure in slowing the death rate... “‘Everyone should know that the “war on cancer” is largely a fraud,’ wrote Dr. Linus Pauling, two-time Nobel Prize Winner. Another Nobel winner, Dr. James Watson, codiscoverer of the DNA double helix, put the matter more bluntly. Watson served for two years on the National Cancer Advisory Board. Asked in 1975 what he thought of the National Cancer Program, he promptly replied, ‘It’s a bunch of shit."4

Flu Shots Complications!

Pretty scary stuff. I just think people should be very aware of the flu shot. Read as much information about it as you can before you decide to get it. Find out what is in the flu shots. Again, pretty scary!

Was an Eight-Year-Old's Death Caused by His Flu Shot?

Here are two more recent stories that receive nowhere near the same amount of attention as the flu deaths. In fact, most if not all, are being portrayed as unfortunate coincidences that have nothing to do with the fact they just received a flu shot, and no further investigations are made:

*Five people recently died after getting flu shots in Korea

*A 25-year-old woman suffered irreversible disability after receiving the flu shot

Vitamin D to Protect You From Infectious Disease

An excellent read that goes on to say, "In addition to optimizing your vitamin D levels, exercise may be your second best approach to avoiding the flu." If you live far away from the Equator, take a Vitamin D supplement.

Why is Canada Changing Its Flu Vaccine Policy?

In August of this year, I was pleased to publish the news that the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) will be investigating the role of vitamin D in protection against swine flu. The agency began a study last year on the role of vitamin D in severe seasonal influenza, which it is now adapting to the H1N1 swine flu virus.

Carole Baggerly, a major proponent of vitamin D, was the primary person responsible for this amazing, ground breaking decision. After donating one year of her time to convince Canadian government officials to do this, she deserves hero status for her efforts. Her tireless work has helped push a whole nation towards the truth.

She is an incredible role model and source of inspiration for all of us as to the power of what one person can do if they are committed to a noble cause.

Vitamin D and the Flu

Most people do not realize that vitamin D, unlike flu shots, is a proven method to keep yourself from catching an infectious disease.

Remedies to Cure or Treat ADHD

This is the MOST incredibly intelligent article I have read in a long time about ADHD. It is so good, I included the entire entry. She mentions a video by Dr. Fred Baughman, that will totally change your mind about this so called ailment. She also mentioned other resources. It is your responsibility to make sure you are NOT drugging your child. My daughter wrote a paper on this same topic for university and it is so true! Read on!!

Remedies to Cure or Treat ADHD.

Terese from Cedar Rapids, Iowa writes: "ADHD: Daycare wanted to drug my son when he was 3. Want to know the ironic thing? Hillary Clinton referenced his daycare in her book, "It Takes a Village." I fought tooth and nail. I finally gave in and put him on ritalin, dexadrene (sp), concerta, strattera. These are all of the drugs I tried on him at different times. Needless to say my son almost died in the ER of an overdose. It's funny because it was supposed to be a "low dosage". You trust your doctor and do what they say because it is good for you right? WRONG! I didn't know any better.

I took my son's life and well being into my own hands. First I had to acknowledge the fact that I needed to have a spine and stop giving him empty threats. I let him get away with anything because I would get to the point where I was just so tired from working all day- I couldn't parent. I needed a break. I wouldn't follow through with things, etc. When I did he was just his bouncing self. I finally set rules, followed through, and there were consequences. Do not join CHADD. They are funded by drug companies. They will think you are a freak for not putting your kid on meds. I got absolutely no support there. I got pamphlets on why I should give my kid a pill. I do not believe they are there to support you. They are there to push drugs. Follow the money if you don't believe me.

First thing I did was watched Dr. Fred Baughman's video on ADHD. You can purchase that at www.adhdfraud.org - I bawled when I watched it. Completely amazing. It is worth every penny. You might be able to find it free online if you search well enough. You have to watch this video before you do anything else.

#2. I read every page and watched all of the YouTube videos of Steve Plog, founder of www.resultsproject.net - READ EVERY PAGE.

#3. I got my son a lab test from Steve Plog's site for delayed food allergies. Delayed food allergies are different from your classic food allergies. My son was allergic to everything I was feeding him. Wheat, soy, dairy, eggs, beef, all citrus, peanuts. We had to do research on a wheat free gluten free soy free dairy free diet. No, he was not a celiac but we had to say that so schools would adhere to his dietary needs, but we started packing lunches anyway. You have to change your lifestyle and we did. That is what prompted me to go vegan but that is another story. He still eats chicken and loves bacon. The best book I found for making him goodies like pizza, breads, and cakes was by Cindy Moseley "Great Foods Without Worry". It was my saving grace.

#4. I read everything on the drugging of children on www.spice-of-life.com - Click on "Articles" and read.

#5. I absolutely cut out pop, all juice "drinks", anything with Splenda, Sweet N Low, NutraSweet--ANYTHING WITH ASPARTAME. Wanna know why? Because it is cancer! A sweet slow death. Don't believe me? Go read www.dorway.com and see for yourself. I get all of the drink things from www.steviasmart.com - He absolutely LOVES the chocolate drink. And what do we do without dairy? We drink rice milk and almond milk. Stop cooking with vegetable, soy, corn, canola, and animal fat oils. Cook with extra virgin coconut oil instead. Read up online about the benefits of extra virgin coconut oil. My favorite is http://www.wildernessfamilynaturals.com/virgin_coconut_oil.htm

#6. Find a doctor who does not believe in drugging children (I know that seems hard but they are out there). Look for alternative doctors. Call around and ask around.

#7. You wean your kid off drugs. It is your responsibility. I am not a doctor, but I have lived almost 9 years of hell.

It is against the law for a teacher to reccommend that you drug your kid. If any teacher tells you to get meds. Ask her if she is a doctor. Tell her it is illegal to practice medicine without a license and that she could be fined and arrested for that.

I have slowly introduced certain foods back into my son's diet. The only things that makes him go through the roof are soy and beef.

I put my son on 2 - 250 mg pills of L- Tryptophan (NOW brand)and give him 2 time released melatonin (Source Naturals) pills every morning. He gets another dose at school before lunch. I pulled him out of regular schools and got him into a private school. He is a normal kid, just like everyone else. He also takes a daily vitamin at night. I have a flourishing 9 year old boy now in the 3rd grade. He also gets flax seed oil from www.omeganutrition.com -

Don't ever let anyone convince you to drug your child. You are the parent and you know what is best. Set rules and boundaries. Kids that are "over active" need structure, routine, rules, consistency, and boundaries. Even kids that aren't "over active" do. Let your kids be kids but be their parent.rnrnIf you have any questions feel free to post under me and I will check back to answer them.

P.S. My son in a public school was sent to the office every day. His scores were passing on his report cards. This year in a private school, and last year... he took his Iowa Test of Basic Skills tests. Everything except LISTENING SKILLS were at almost a 5th grade level. So, for anyone to tell me that I am crazy.... you can stick it where the sun don't shine for all I care. I have living proof that what I did with my own son works. Different strokes for different folks. I do not believe in ADHD. I believe in drug companies making a profit off kids being kids. Follow the money."

Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)

ACV to the rescue! It has become a standing joke in our family if anyone has something wrong with them, we just say, "stick your elbow in ACV". ACV has been in our house ever since I read about it on Earthclinic.com. You should read this as well: http://earthclinic.com/Remedies/acvinegar.html. The properties that ACV has will astound you and 'cures more ailments than any other folk remedy' you could think of.

10 Uses for Apple Cider Vinegar | Healthy and Green Living

apple cider vinegar can do pretty much anything–for your skin, your hair, your house, and even your pets.

I learned about apple cider vinegar when I was researching ways to get rid of the fleas that had unfortunately begun cropping up in my apartment from my roommates’ two cats. Apple cider vinegar, apparently, when rubbed on the pet and added to the pet’s water, can greatly help repel the fleas from the animal.

Why should we all start using more apple cider vinegar? First of all, apple cider vinegar is a completely natural product: apple juice is fermented to hard apple cider, which is fermented a second time to apple cider vinegar. In integrating this natural product into our homes, we instantly decrease the consumption of unnatural chemicals in our daily lives.

Fluoride Overdose if Children Swallow Toothpaste

In one of my favorite books, "Hydrogen Peroxide H2O2 Medical Miracle" by William Campbell Douglass MD, he talks about fluoride toothpaste. He says, "dentists warn that young children should not use fluoridated toothpaste "without supervision." That is because toothpaste is sweet and children swallow it. When they swallow it, they get massive overdoses of fluoride, which is an enzymatic poison." YIKES! he goes on to say that the assumption that "cavities aren't caused by rotten food. They are caused by a rotten diet!"

Here is what he suggests:

Throw out all the toothbrushes and toothpaste in your bathroom. (he says, "I realize that most of you are not willing to do this, so if you must brush, get 3% hydrogen peroxide and mix it with baking soda. Make a thick paste. If you insist on brushing your teeth with store-bought toothpaste, don't use any that has fluoride in it. All natural toothpaste can be purchased at most health food stores.

Your toothbrush is one the dirtiest things in your bathroom. If you use a toothbrush, dip it in 3% hydrogen peroxide after each use.

And, get rid of anything in your kitchen or bathroom labeled as containging fluoride. for mouth freshness, rinse with 3% H2O2. It lasts longer than Scope, Listerine or Crest and actually kills pathogenic bacteria; the others do not.

Remember, "no matter what your dental hygiene is, your teeth will still rot if your diet is loaded with sugar, fluoride, heat saturated vegetable fats and other nutrition-free food substitutes."

Go back and read about xylitol. It is good for your teeth.

Indigestion and Heartburn

This is a hard one to swallow - haha - apple cider vinegar for acid reflux or heartburn. Everyone, I tell about this, says that ACV (apple cider vinegar) is acidic and I already have enough acid! Contrary to popular opinion, heartburn is a result of not enough acid! From Wikipedia:
The valve that empties the stomach into the intestines is triggered by acidity. If there is not enough acid, this valve does not open, and the stomach contents are churned up into the esophagus. However, there is still enough acidity to irritate the esophagus.
If you want to get rid of heartburn or indigestion, take 2 tablespoons of ACV. Eating apples, as I have said before in one of my posts on acid reflux, is also a good remedy.

DIY Medicine Cabinet: Grandma's Remedies | Healthy and Green Living

Indigestion and Heartburn
It almost goes without saying–but consider why yoe’re getting heartburn in the first place. Did you overeat? Too much grease or spicy food? Eating late at night? Scout out the cause and try to stop this before it happens. Then, put down the antacids. The belching, bloat, and heartburn caused by indigestion come about because you don’t have enough stomach acid to do the job right. A spoonful or two of apple cider vinegar will help break down the excess food that is causing you trouble and bring your stomach back to balance.

Chlorella to Detoxify the Body!

This is an amazing health food! I got this information from a book called "Superfoods For Optimum Health - Chlorellas & Spirulina" by Mike Adams. It is a great read. Look at what it can do. With heavy-metal toxicity high on the list of doomsday topics, I am now taking Chlorella in liquid form. It detoxifies the body and tastes great. I put a teaspoon in a glass of water and drink. I do this a few times a day.

Chlorella:
Chlorella has been touted as the perfect whole food. Aside from being a complete
protein and containing all the B vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin E, and the major minerals
(with zinc and iron in amounts large enough to be considered supplementary), it has
been found to improve the immune system, improve digestion, detoxify the body,
accelerate healing, protect against radiation, aid in the prevention of degenerative
diseases, help in treatment of Candida albicans, relieve arthritis pain and, because of
its nutritional content, aid in the success of numerous weight loss programs.Technorati Tags: detoxify the body, chlorella, improve your immune system, improve digestion, accelerate healing, prevent degenerative diseases, treat candida albicans, relieve arthritis pain, weight loss

Why The Sun is SO Important!

This came in my email this morning from The Daily Dose by Dr. William Campbell Douglas. Read right to the end, especially about sunscreen!

Why you shouldn't shrink from the sun

Despite what the panic police want you to believe, the sun is not the main cause of deadly skin cancer. But your relatives probably are.

Two new studies published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology link melanoma to genetics. One study looked at twins -- and found that when one twin got melanoma, the odds of contracting the disease skyrocketed in the other.

A separate study looked at family histories, and found that having a relative with any form of skin cancer increases your own odds of getting any form of skin cancer.

Remember, skin cancer isn't one condition. There are several forms of the disease, and the most common ones -- which are linked to ultraviolet light such as sunlight -- are benign, never fatal and easily treated in simple outpatient procedures.

The one you should fear -- melanoma -- is far rarer, potentially deadly and has nothing to do with the sun. In fact, a lack of sun can worsen it.

Think about this. Years ago, did you hear anyone worrying about melanoma?

Of course not! And it's not because we were ignorant and stupid. It's because fewer people had it.

Then, starting in 1973, melanoma cases began climbing -- right around the time we stopped going outside.

One study in Australia -- one of the sunniest places on earth -- found that office workers were more likely to get melanoma than lifeguards. Another found that melanoma is more common in Ohio than sun-soaked Florida.

Another study, published this summer in Nature Genetics, found that the number of moles you have (another genetic condition) is one of the strongest risk factors for melanoma. Not the sun.

It's so clear you'd have to be blinded by the sun not to see it... yet most so-called professionals still refuse to make the connection -- probably because so many of them profit off our bizarre and unnecessary fear of bright afternoons.

So stop buying sunscreen. Some studies show that this gunk can actually increase your risk of skin cancer. Then, be sure to spend a little more time in the sun. Get back inside before you burn, but not because you fear cancer -- but because sunburn hurts.

The Power of Breath

Yesterday, I wrote about the Swine Flu and oxygenating your body. This article tells you how to practice your breathing techniques. Imagine something so simple as breathing properly to stay healthy! Read, practice and stay Healthy!!

The Power of Breath | Healthy and Green Living

Because the breath is the most tangible manifestation of prana–the power of consciousness–a person with disturbed breathing is bound to be unhealthy, while a person with balanced breathing will have little or no room for disease. Breathing has a potent influence over the functions of our nervous system, brain, and thought process.

Swine Flu Video

This video is a must see, only in that it explains how we catch the swine flu and any other disease. It is really a video to get you to buy a book, but you don't need to do that. What you can get from this video is free and that is that your body needs to be in an oxygenated state. In a previous blog, I posted about Swine Flu and Hydrogen Peroxide. In this video they tell you that you only need one inexpensive natural substance. They just don't tell you which one. It is hydrogen peroxide. Our bodies actually produce Hydrogen Peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide food grade is actually also called Aerobic Oxygenator! Get your hands on Hydrogen Peroxide Medical Miracle Book (download it) and see what else you can cure!

If, you begin to feel sick (catch it in the beginning), you just put Hydrogen Peroxide in each ear until the bubbling stops. You can also go to earthclinic.com and click on Hydrogen Peroxide for much more information or you can google hydrogen peroxide and find a wealth of information. Stay well!

Eat More Color!

This came in my mail today from HSI. I am an avid fruit and vegetable eater. Now I would like you to be. Look at what this survey revealed! and read to the end to find out about ovarian cancer and eating plant fiber!

A national nutrition survey revealed troubling results about our eating habits.
Nearly 90 percent of us don't eat enough foods that contain blue/purple phytonutrients
About 85 percent don't eat enough white phytonutrient foods
Almost 80 percent don't eat enough orange/yellow foods
More than 65 percent don't eat enough green foods

So what valuable phytonutrients are we missing out on? Here are just a few:

Lycopene – the cancer-fighting compound that supports heart and prostate health that's found in tomatoes and watermelon
Resveratrol – another cancer-fighter that also might curb the risk of age-related diseases is abundant in blue/purple foods like grapes and blueberries
Quercetin – an anti-inflammatory antioxidant found in white foods such as cauliflower and onion
Lutein & zeaxanthin – antioxidants that support good vision are found in green foods like spinach and kale

Phytonutrients protect your body's cells, putting the brakes on premature aging and disease.

Years ago, I told you about a University of Buffalo study that measured phytonutrient intake for more than 800 women, 124 of them with ovarian cancer.

Results showed that women cut risk of ovarian cancer in half with a high intake of plant fiber. This was especially true of carotenoid vegetables (yellow, orange, and red pigments), and lignan, a phytonutrient in flaxseed.

Read What You Eat!

Again, I feel this is so important, so I have posted another Rule to Good Nutrition. Read your labels - 5 or less is okay but natural is better.

Eat More Whole Foods and Fewer Science Experiments | Eat This, Not That

Here’s a rule of healthy eating that will serve you well when picking out foods for your family: The shorter the ingredients list, the healthier the food. (One of the worst foods we’ve ever found, the Baskin-Robbins Heath Shake, has 73 ingredients—and, by the way, a whopping 2,310 calories and more than 3 days’ worth of saturated fat! What happened to the idea that a milk shake was, um, milk and ice cream? Let’s be grateful that Baskin-Robbins finally pulled this monstrosity from their menus.) The FDA maintains a list of more than 3,000 ingredients that are considered safe to eat, but we’ve found reasons for concern for a number of the additives on that long list, and any one of them could wind up in your next box of mac ’n’ cheese.

According to USDA reports, most of the sodium in the American diet comes from packaged and processed foods. Naturally occurring salt accounts for only 12 percent of total intake, while 77 percent is added by food manufacturers.

Technorati Tags: good nutrition, eating healthy, whole foods

What to Drink Instead of Sugary Beverages

Another great rule for good nutrition.

Drink Responsibly | Eat This, Not That

3. Drink Responsibly

Too many of us keep in mind the adage “watch what you eat,” and we forget another serious threat to our health: We don’t watch what we drink. In fact, according to research from the University of North Carolina, Americans now slurp up nearly 25 percent of their calories in liquid form—nearly double the rate we used to drink just 20 years ago. One study found that sweetened beverages constituted more than half (51 percent) of all beverages consumed by fourth- through sixth-grade students. The students who consumed the most sweetened beverages took in approximately 330 extra calories per day, and on average they ate less than half the amount of real fruit than did their peers who drank unsweetened or lightly sweetened beverages.

One important strategy is to keep cold, filtered water in a pitcher in the fridge. You might even want to keep some cut-up limes, oranges, or lemons nearby for kids to flavor their own water with. A UK study showed that in classrooms with limited access to water, only 29 percent of students met their daily needs; free access to water led to higher intake.

Another important strategy: Be extra careful about the juice you purchase. Too many “juices” are little more than sugar water masquerading as the real thing. Ocean Spray Cran-Raspberry, for instance, has just 15 percent real fruit juice. The other 85 percent? High-fructose corn syrup and water. Make sure the juice you buy says “100 percent Fruit Juice” on the label, and try to choose one made from a single fruit, not a mix of high-sugar fruits like white grapes, which are commonly used in fruit juice blends.

Keeping Ourselves and Our Children at a Healthy Weight

This morning, I read 6 Rules of Good Nutrition on http://eatthis.menshealth.com/slide/beware-portion-distortion. I felt it was so important.

Snack portions aren’t the only things that have increased wildly in size. Since 1977, hamburgers have increased by 97 calories, French fries by 68 calories, and Mexican foods by 133 calories, according to analysis of the Nationwide Food Consumption Survey.

A study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine looked at 63,380 individuals’ drinking habits over a span of 19 years. The results show that for children ages 2 to 18, portions of sweetened beverages increased from 13.1 ounces in 1977 to 18.9 ounces in 1996.

One easy way to short-circuit this growing trend? Buy smaller bowls and cups. A recent study at the Children’s Nutrition Research Center in Houston, Texas, shows that 5- and 6-year-old children will consume a third more calories when presented with a larger portion. The findings are based on a sample of 53 children who were served either 1- or 2-cup portions of macaroni and cheese.

10 Simple Tips to Reduce Your Chemical Exposures and Your Child's

This is an extremely important article to read.

Children's Diseases Linked to Chemicals Are on the Rise

You can limit your exposure to environmental chemicals as much as possible with the following tips:

1. Buy and eat, as much as possible, organic produce and free-range, organic foods.
2. Rather than eating fish, which is largely contaminated with PCBs and mercury, consume a high-quality purified krill oil.
3. Avoid processed foods -- remember that they're processed with chemicals!
4. Only use natural cleaning products in your home. Most health food stores will have these available or you can search online for them.
5. Switch over to natural brands of toiletries, including shampoo, toothpaste, antiperspirants and cosmetics. Same sources here, either your local health food store or you can search online.
6. Avoid spraying insect repellants that contain DEET on your body. There are safe, effective and natural alternatives out there.
7. Remove any metal fillings. Amalgams are a major source of mercury and any metal, including gold, can cause biogalvanism. Be sure to have this done by a qualified biological dentist. Although nearly any dentist is technically qualified to replace your amalgam fillings, far less than 95 percent have any clue on how to do it properly so your risk of mercury exposure is minimized.
8. Avoid using artificial air fresheners, dryer sheets, fabric softeners or other synthetic fragrances as they can pollute the air you are breathing.
9. Avoid artificial food additives of all kind, including artificial sweeteners and MSG.
10. Limit your use of drugs (prescription and over-the-counter) as much as possible. Drugs are chemicals too, and they will leave residues and accumulate in your body over time.

Cure Ringworm With ....

I help out at a great dog shelter in Playa del, Carmen, the Peanut Pet Shelter. They have a great website at http://peanutpetshelter.org/. They are doing a fabulous job and work very hard. As of now, they have 103 dogs they have rescued. They look after them, spay and neuter them and adopt them out. Clap, Clap! Back to ringworm.

Some of the people who volunteer there have gotten ringworm. On the way over to the shelter, the volunteers were talking about natural rememdies to it. One fellow from Denmark told everyone that if you burn a piece of paper in a glass bowl. Place the tar that remains on your ringworm and it will go away. Sure enough, one of the fellows went home and tried it and it has disappeared.

I imagine you could use this for athlete's feet too as ringworm is athlete's feet on the body!

To Lower Your Blood Pressure Avoid Fructose

Dr. Mercola does it again! How simple is this? If only people could understand the benefits of not drinking soft drinks! It and junk food contains fructose. When reading labels, if you see fructose or high-fructose corn syrup, stay away from it. The side effects are horrendous. Read Dr. Mercolas' comments.

If you have sugar cravings, your body is telling you that you are missing something in your diet. When I have a sugar craving, I have 6 walnuts and voila! They are gone. Read this article and good luck!

Simple Way to Lower Your Blood Pressure -- Just Avoid THIS…

A diet high in fructose, a form of sugar found in sweetened soft drinks and junk food, raises blood pressure in men.

Two recent studies provided the first evidence that fructose helps raise blood pressure. One study further suggested that people who consume junk foods and sweetened soft drinks at night could gain weight faster than those who don't.

Fructose accounts for about half the sugar molecules in table sugar and in high-fructose corn syrup, the sweetener used in many packaged foods.

People Who Get a Seasonal Flu Shot Are Twice as Likely to Catch Swine Flu

A word of warning from Dr. Mercola, "Although it’s too early to make any final judgments based on this leaked information, I believe it’s worth keeping an eye out for the final study. As of right now, the data is still undergoing peer review, and there’s no word on when, or if, the study will make it to publication." If you google vaccine on Dr. Mercola's site, you will find a host of information telling you how vaccines harm and kill! Educate yourself on this topic - it could save your life!

People Who Get a Seasonal Flu Shot Are Twice as Likely to Catch Swine Flu

As-yet-unpublished Canadian data raises concerns about whether it's a good idea to get a seasonal flu shot.

A series of studies suggests that people who got a seasonal flu shot last year are about twice as likely to catch swine flu as people who didn't.

Journals bar would-be authors from discussing their results publicly before they go through peer review, but the findings have been a poorly kept secret and many in the public health community in Canada have heard about them.

It is made from natural substances such as, vegetables, fruits, corn cobs and hardwood trees such as, birch.It is produced naturally in our bodies! "Xylitol is really sugar's mirror image. While sugar wreaks havoc on the body, xylitol heals and repairs. It also builds immunity, protects against chronic degenerative disease and has anti-ageing benefits. Xylitol is considered a five-carbon sugar, which means it is an antimicrobial, preventing the growth of bacteria. While sugar is acid forming, xylitol is alkaline enhancing."

So even small amounts of iodine absorbed through the skin can have good effects on body organs. From my own clinical experience, repeated application of iodine (Lugol’s) to the skin appears to cause regeneration of the skin from the bottom up (Quiescent, stable or stem cell) (3) eventually sloughing the old version of the skin off like a snake molting. If there was a pre-cancerous lesion on the old skin, it is replaced with new skin minus the lesion. There does not seem to be any skin lesions which are not helped or cured by this procedure. In some cases I found clinically obvious low thyroid conditions also needed to be treated to be more effective. Minor lacerations and healing of surgical wounds respond well. If skin regeneration is from the bottom, then there is little or no scar formation.

My parents’ generation tended to put tincture of iodine onto a fresh wound to prevent infection. This turns out to be helpful but not the best way to use it. Besides it stung badly when applied. It is much more effective (and doesn't hurt) to apply iodine repeatedly after a scab has been formed. The iodine put onto the scab helps to organize total repair of the tissue. It is implied a similar approach could be taken to burns of all depths but at the same time the physiology of burns suggest there is an acute lack of thyroid hormone. (3)

All pre-malignant lesions and many other oddities of the skin appear to respond to this regeneration process triggered by topical iodine. I have mentioned previously a patient with a biopsy-proven breast cancer lesion (she refused surgery because of previous cancer treatment) that was strongly fixed to the skin responding well to topical iodine and ended up being a dimple on the breast three year later. (6)

It is my belief a water solution of iodine (like Lugol's) is an important therapeutic agent for skin. Because of its effectiveness and the results, perhaps many skin diseases are related to local tissue areas of relative iodine deficiency. Perhaps the most graphic lesions are the "keloid" (worm) incision scars formed after surgical procedures. If the iodine intake and tissue levels are adequate, such as in Japan, keloid formation doesn't happen (7). In addition, iodine's ability to trigger natural cell death (apoptosis) (5) makes it effective against all pre-cancerous skin lesions and likely many cancerous lesions. The local site is replaced with normal skin. However, even lesser doses of topical iodine seem to reverse the ominous appearance of skin lesions. Because my older brother died of metastatic melanoma, my chances of getting a malignant melanoma are increased by 400 times. (8-9) Having grown up in Venezuela near the equator my sun exposure at a young age was far above normal. So all suspicious lesions I notice are returned to normal with topical Lugol's.

One of the most famous of documentations of iodine skin therapy to a famous person occurred in the American Civil War.

"On September 29, 1862, Colonel John B. Gordon held the center of General Lee's army at the battle of Antietam, or Sharpsburg. The first volley from the northern lines sent a ball through the calf of Gordon's right leg; soon after, another went through the muscles of his thigh; a third pierced his left arm, tearing asunder the tendons and mangling the flesh; a forth ripped through his shoulder leaving a wad of clothing embedded in its track. Still, no bones were broken; but, while Gordon lingered in the firing line, "with", as he says himself, "but little of my usual strength", a fifth ball struck him squarely in the face.

Dr. Weatherly of the 6th Alabama Regiment, in charge of medical arrangements, had the Colonel removed to a base hospital, and prescribed tincture of iodine to be painted on the wounds three or four times a day. The case was unpromising. Gordon's eyelids were greatly swollen; one eye was completely closed, the other almost so; his jaw was immovably clenched, and, to make matters worse, erysipelas (staphylococcus infection of skin) had set in on the left arm.

Mrs. Gordon, his wife, who nursed him - her name was Fanny, and she was then a beautiful girl of 25 - put a liberal interpretation on her instructions and painted the wounds, not three or four times a day, but, as Gordon himself says: "I think three to four hundred time a day." Fanny's diligence and devotion were rewarded. Her husband survived, outlived the war, became the Governor of Georgia, a General, and Commander-in-Chief of the United Confederate Veterans. He died in 1904." (10)

I think Fanny knew iodine applied often was a more effective way to deliver iodine to the body especially applied on multiple sites. Likely Gordon's iodine blood levels and tissue levels rose throughout his body. As iodine is by far the best antibiotic, antiviral and antiseptic of all time, the colonel's body defenses were able to gain control of the infections. At the same time local repeated application to the wound sites caused the skin to grow up from its bottom where all the cells (Stem cells) that make normal skin are residing. Likely this minimized or eliminated scar formation. Thus Nyiri’s and Jannetti’s studies confirm why Fanny’s method of treatment worked so brilliantly. Some of our recent serious skin diseases such a "flesh-eating disease" should respond quickly to topical iodine treatment practiced by Fanny. Or, for another example, iodine put onto a mosquito bite would kill all bacteria and viruses at the site of the bite within 10-30 seconds making it impossible for any virus or bacteria to multiply and get started --such as in West Nile Fever. Naturally, this applies to tic bites (Lyme's disease) as well. For many decades in the 1800s people carried around little bottles of iodine around their necks to use on all occasions. People in mosquito and tic infested areas should think of doing this again. (8) In addition, it has been forgotten vaporized iodine rapidly kills air borne viruses such as polio and SARS viruses.. Used extensively in the forties and fifties it may be of use to explore this approach again.

There has been no significant clinical research on iodine therapy or use for 40 years. (11-15) I feel it is important for research to be directed at this potentially significant area of medical treatment. It is worth noting the greatest part of significant research with iodine was done before the Medline search facilities were available. Of course, since large doses of iodine are tolerated intravenously without side effects, it has yet to be explored what help this may have for many cancer patients or even other diseases.
