Why Brain Cancer Killed My Friend Harry!

[ Enjoy Article Via: YouTube Video :  MP4 Video for i-Phones :  MP3 Audio ]

My friend Harry died Saturday night.

Harry was a gem and loved by many.

Chemotherapy and radiation did him in.

Over a year ago Harry went to his doctor because he wasn’t feeling well.  He was diagnosed with a brain tumor.  A team of doctors recommended surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation.

Slash — Burn — Radiate!

Harry of course didn’t catch a brain tumor, he developed it over the years.  How many?  Hard to tell.  Could have taken ten, twenty, thirty years.

Harry was a sugar-holic, and sugar feeds cancer.  Dr. Otto Warberg won a Nobel prize for this discovery many years ago.  Harry was also not too strict on other foods he ate.

It’s an old story, like so many others Harry got his body chemistry out of whack and so began, for him, the journey to brain cancer.  We know that others taking this same journey may develop breast, colon, prostate, pancreatic or other cancers, but for Harry it was brain cancer.

What’s tragic is that so many Americans have been brain washed by the American Cancer Society, Susan G. Koman Foundation, American Medical Association, the FDA, and other organizations that have sucked up billions of dollars for research to discover the cure for cancer, with no cure in sight from these researchers.

Using fear and marketing ploys such as “run for the cure”, etc. these organizations suck dollars out of the pockets of millions of people to fund research programs that are supposed to find the cure for cancer.

But they lie.  The money mostly goes for their inflated salaries and “make work” days. This has been going on for decades and will continue to go on for decades more unless people like us  and stop sending them money.  These organizations will never find the cure, because if they do, it will put them out of business!

Here in the US the only legal treatment for cancer is slash, burn, and radiate.  To do otherwise is a criminal act.

Most doctors treat cancer by attacking the tumor.  Heaven forbid they should look to get rid of the source that developed the tumor in the first place.

They crow success and remission if they eliminate the tumor, never mind that they have poisoned the whole body in doing so, and of course it is not their fault if a few years later the tumor returns or the patient dies.

Not their problem.  They followed the rules as established by the AMA, the FDA and the accepted advice of the pharmaceutical companies who make the incredibly profitable chemotherapy drugs.

So when Harry heard the sage advice of his doctors that his only chance for survival was slash, burn, and radiate, Harry, being one of the millions of Americans who believed in traditional medicine, agreed.

That decision, to agree to traditional medical treatment for his cancer  — was Harry’s death sentence.

None of Harry’s  medical people ever told him to stop eating sugar as that feeds cancer.

No one ever told Harry he needed to alkalize his body because cancer cells can’t survive in an alkaline media.

This advice is considered by the medical profession to be “Alternative” and is not in their vocabulary.

Doctors consider it a successful remission if you live two years after their treatment for cancer, and a cure, if you lived 5 years.

That is very sad, as contrary to what most doctors will tell you, there are many permanent cures for cancer other than slash, burn and radiate that will really cure your cancer once you have given your body a chance to heal itself by getting rid of the causes of your cancer and the cancer itself.

A good example is the hyperthermia treatment.  Administered under close medical supervision, the body is heated to a temperature of 107° F or higher. Heat kills cancer cells and has no effect on normal cells.

This process has been used all over Europe, particularly in Germany and Austria, and other parts of the world for decades.  There is a clinic in Tijuana, Mexico that has been successfully treating cancer patients for years.

Here in the US the FDA has ruled that hyperthermia is strictly experimental, totally ignoring the years of positive evidence of the successful treating of cancer with hyperthermia, with people living 20, 30 or 40 more years and dying of other causes.

This ruling is a major coup for the pharmaceutical companies, and the slash, burn, and radiate doctors, protecting their billions of dollars in profits each year.  To this day, the regular use of hyperthermia in the US is illegal.

Did you know that cancer cells cannot live in an alkaline media, nor in an oxygen media?

Intravenous treatments of ozone, which flood the body with oxygen, have also proven an effective cure for cancer.  There are numerous other effective cures, including nutritional cures.

None of these so called alternative and illegal cures (in the US) just treat the cancer as most US doctors do, they treat the whole body without drugs, surgery, or radiation.

Every single cancer treatment program, other than conventional treatment given in the US, I have ever read or heard about, begins with a heavy flush of the colon to get rid of years of buildup of caked waste that has been emitting toxins for years.

After the colon cleanse, a program of detoxifying the rest of the body to free up the immune system enabling the body to heal itself.  Added to these treatments is a change to mostly, if not all, raw diet, along with nutritional supplements as part of the treatments.

Detoxification and nutrition are integral parts of hyperthermia, ozone, or other treatments.

Western medicine treats happenings in the body as individual events.  If there is a kidney problem, they treat the kidney; a tumor, they treat the tumor; a heart problem, they treat the heart.

The reality is that body is not made up of separate parts.  The body is made up of integrated parts, one dependent on the other, which is why holistic and naturopathic doctors treat the whole body to effect successful healing.

What holistic and naturopathic doctors know is that the source of the problem always starts elsewhere in the body, and to properly heal, you must eliminate the source.

No one has to get a developed disease.

Eat organic healthy food as much as possible, do not drink sodas or power drinks.

Do drink filtered clean water, not bottled water, exercise, and you will never develop a degenerative disease or become overweight.

Hypocrites said, “Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food.”

Good health is not to be found in your doctor’s hands, it is found in your hands.  You make the decisions.

My friend Harry made the wrong choice of treatment, it cost him his life.

You still have a chance.  You can make the right choices.

Good bye Harry.  I cherish my experience in knowing you, and will miss you very much, as will many others.

To your good heath & longevity.

Can Asparagus Cure Cancer?

Recently we received a copy of an email that has been floating around the Internet for some time now implying that asparagus cures cancer.

The email introduced the origin of the story and several testimonials from people with claims that asparagus did indeed cure their cancer.

Wow!  That simple?  Asparagus?  So I did my research and lo and behold, there is a basis for their claims.

Although there are no valid scientific studies to back up their claims, there is enough nutritional evidence as to the anti-cancer properties of asparagus that one organization has filed for a grant to begin these studies.

And from all I have read with regard to asparagus and cancer, I would encourage you to eat your asparagus if you have cancer or wish to prevent cancer.

The following is a copy of the email article.  Following that is a biochemist’s explanation of why we should include asparagus as part of our protective arsenal.

THE ARTICLE:
Several years ago, I had a man seeking asparagus for a friend who had cancer. He gave me a photocopied copy  of an article, entitled, Asparagus for cancer ‘printed in Cancer News Journal, December 1979. I will share it here, just as it was shared with me: I am a biochemist, and have specialized in the relation of diet to health or over 50 years. Several years ago, I learned  of the discovery of Richard R. Vensal, D.D.S. that asparagus might cure cancer. Since then, I have worked  with him on his project We have accumulated a numb of favorable case histories. Here are a few examples:

Case No. 1, A man with an almost hopeless case  of Hodgkin’s disease (cancer of the lymph glands) who was completely incapacitated. Within 1 year of starting the asparagus therapy, his doctors were unable to detect any signs of cancer, and he was back on a  schedule of strenuous exercise.

Case No. 2, a successful businessman 68 years old who suffered from cancer of the bladder for 16 years. After years of medical treatments, including radiation without improvement, he went on asparagus. Within 3 months, examinations revealed that his bladder tumor had disappeared and that his kidneys were normal.

Case No. 3, a man who had lung cancer. On March 5th 1971, he was put on the operating table where they found lung cancer so widely spread that it was inoperable. The surgeon sewed him up and declared his case hopeless. On April 5th he heard about the Asparagus therapy and immediately started taking it By August, x-ray pictures revealed that all signs of the cancer had disappeared. He is back at his regular business routine.

Case No. 4, a woman who was troubled for a number of years with skin cancer. She finally developed different skin cancers which were diagnosed by the acting specialist as advanced. Within 3 months after starting on asparagus, her skin specialist said that her skin looked fine and no more skin lesions. This woman reported that the asparagus therapy also cured her kidney disease, which started in 1949. She had over 10 operations for kidney stones, and was receiving government disability payments for an inoperable, terminal, kidney condition. She attributes the cure of this kidney trouble entirely to the asparagus.

I was not surprised at this result, as `The elements of materia medica’, edited in1854 by a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania , stated that asparagus was used as a popular remedy for kidney stones. He even referred to experiments, in 1739, on the power of asparagus in dissolving stones. Note the dates!  We would have other case histories but the medical establishment has interfered with our obtaining some of the records. I am therefore appealing to readers tospread this good news and help us to gather a large number of case histories that will overwhelm the medical skeptics about this unbelievably simple and natural remedy.

For the treatment, asparagus should be cooked before using, and therefore canned asparagus is just as good as fresh. I have corresponded with the two leading canners of asparagus, Giant and Stokely, and I am satisfied that these brands contain no pesticides or preservatives.

Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree, and store in the refrigerator. Give the patient 4 full tablespoons twice daily, morning and evening. Patients usually show some improvement in 2-4 weeks. It can be diluted with water and used as a cold or hot drink.

This suggested dosage is based on present experience, but certainly larger amounts can do no harm and may be needed in some cases. As a biochemist I am convinced of the old saying that `what cures can prevent.’ Based on this theory, my wife and I have been using asparagus puree as a beverage with our meals. We take 2 tablespoons diluted in water to suit our taste with breakfast and with dinner. I take mine hot and my wife prefers hers cold.

For years we have made it a practice to have blood surveys taken as part of our regular checkups. The last blood survey, taken by a medical doctor who specializes in the nutritional approach to health, showed substantial improvements in all categories over the last one, and we can attribute these improvements to nothing but  the asparagus drink.

As a biochemist, I have made an extensive study of all aspects of cancer, and all of the proposed cures. As a result, I am convinced that asparagus fits in better with the latest theories about cancer.

Asparagus contains a good supply of protein called histones, which are believed to be active in controlling cell growth.. For that reason, I believe asparagus can be said to contain a substance that I call cell growth normalizer. That accounts for its action on cancer and in acting as a general body tonic. In any event, regardless of theory, asparagus used as we suggest, is a harmless substance. The FDA cannot prevent you from using it and it may do you much good. It has been reported by the US National Cancer Institute, that asparagus is the highest tested food containing glutathione, which is considered one of the body’s most potent anti-carcinogens and antioxidants.

In any case, contrary to the impression given above there are no peer-reviewed medical studies proving that eating asparagus alone “prevents” or “cures” cancer.

That’s not to say asparagus offers no cancer-fighting benefits whatsoever — there’s a good chance it does, given that it contains vitamin D, folic acid, and the antioxidant glutathione, all thought to play some role in lowering risk factors for certain cancers.

By all means, eat your asparagus!

Dietary glutathione intake from food sources such as asparagus has been associated with protection against certain forms of cancer in addition to potent anti-viral properties.

Researchers at the Institute for Cancer Prevention found in preliminary studies that asparagus, the food with the highest glutathione concentration, is a potentially effective means of enhancing the body’s defense systems and preventing cancer development.

Tests conducted last year indicate that asparagus from Washington contain 70mg/100g of glutathione, a small protein composed of three amino acids: cysteine, glutamic acid and glycine which bind to fat-soluble toxins–more than twice the amount in any other common food.

The ICP study, led by Dr. Despina Komninou, will provide the basis for a major grant underwriting to the National Institutes of Health.  Clinic trials will determine if asparagus may be the ultimate disease prevention food.

So there you have it, eat your asparagus!  Not getting breast, prostate, colon, skin, or other cancers is the best cure of all!

To your good health and longevity and an end to cancer!

Is Your Diet Making You Sick?

I have lost count of the times I hear the lament “I always eat healthy — so why am I sick”?

What is distressing is that these people really work at eating healthy, but to no avail.

They don’t drink soda. They do drink lots of water.  They don’t eat cold cuts that contain nitrates or other prepared meats or foods.  They eat lots of fruits and vegetables as they should and as is recommended.

You would think, as they think, that with such a healthy diet, they would be getting all the nutrients they need for a healthy life.

So why are they getting sick?

The answer is—because consuming conventional food, they are not getting the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients they think they are getting.

Their life is being sabotaged by the large conglomerate farms who are the major producers of our conventional fruits, vegetables, grains, milk and cheese.

The same is true for the factory farms that provide us with the major supply of our meat and fish.

The soil of conventional farms is depleted and has been for the last 80 years.

Conventional farming (i.e., intensive farming that uses chemicals) returns little or nothing to the soil and gradually depletes the soil of minerals.

Because only a small number of nutrients are replenished when using chemical fertilizers, (especially nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus), the soil gradually loses its trace elements that are essential for health, such as boron, chromium and selenium.

The mineral content in our food has become severely diminished.

Fruits, vegetables and other plants that we rely upon to supply minerals in our diet cannot take adequate amounts of minerals from the soil if there are no minerals there to take.

In 1940 and again in 1991, tests were performed on various fruits, vegetables (including carrots, broccoli, spinach and potatoes) and meats for mineral content.

It was found that the amounts of calcium, magnesium, iron and copper in our vegetables had declined during those 51 years by as much as 75 to 96 percent, while meats had lost 41 percent of their calcium and 54 percent of their iron.

Fruits had lost 27 percent of their zinc.  Apples and oranges had lost 67 percent of their iron.

The tests were repeated in 2002 with similar results.

It is not only mineral content that has declined over the past half century. Levels of vitamins A and C have also dropped dramatically.

Wheat has lost much of its protein since 1900.

Nitrogen fertilization in conventional farming was found to decrease vitamin C concentrations in many fruits and vegetables.

Using potatoes as one of the examples, in a study to find out what nutrients the potato has lost over the last 50 years. This is what was concluded:

• 100% of Vitamin A
• 57% of Vitamin C and Iron
• 28% of Calcium
• 50% of Riboflavin
• 18% of Thiamine

Here are further examples, taken from the USDA’s own studies of the loss of vitamins and minerals in fruits and vegetables.  Today as compared to 1975.

• Apples: vitamin A is down 41%
• Sweet peppers: vitamin C is down 31%
• Watercress: iron is down 88%
• Broccoli: calcium and vitamin A are down 50%
• Cauliflower: vitamin C is down 45%; vitamin B1 is down 48%; and vitamin B2 is down 47%
• Collards greens: vitamin A is down 45%; potassium is down 60%; and magnesium is down 85%

The USDA reported some 30 years ago that, “the highest death rate areas in the US generally corresponded to those where agriculturists had recognized that the soil was depleted.”

Degenerative diseases are prevalent in North America and Europe, in contrast with the absence of these diseases in places that have maintained natural farming methods.

Human milk has been found tainted with over 350 man-made contaminants including pesticides.

In the United States, dairy cows may be injected with a genetically modified growth hormone (rBGH also known as rBST, recombinant bovine somatotropin) to increase milk production.

Canadian and European governments have refused to permit the use of this hormone.

Not only does it increase the incidence of mastitis in cows, but it also increases the incidence of cancer in human beings.

The Pesticide Action Network reported that the overall incidence of cancer has risen by about 50 percent since 1971, and pesticide residues in food may be a contributing factor.

International authorities have listed 160 extensively used pesticides as possible human carcinogens.

Tests carried out in 2003 found chemical residues in one third of fruits and vegetables, with some containing as many as five different chemicals, some present in amounts exceeding government-set limit.

Chemicals applied to the surface of a fruit or vegetable can be partially removed by washing or peeling, but some chemicals enter and permeate the plant or are designed not to wash off in water (rain).

Safety tests do not consider the ‘cocktail effect’ of the many agro-chemicals and food additives that are simultaneously present in the human body.

Many pesticides are suspected of being endocrine disrupters, affecting sexual characteristics, hormone production or metabolism, thyroid function or brain function.

Children are especially susceptible, and later in life, may suffer disorders of behavior and reproduction and be more prone to disease.  These chemicals affect not only human beings but also other animals.

On the other hand, fertilization of crops with cow dung (as may occur on organic farms) can increase vitamin B12 to a level that may contribute significantly to the diet of vegans.  Secondary nutrients also tend to be more abundant in organically grown fruits and vegetables.

A well-enriched soil resulted in excellent plant health, which, in turn, produced healthy animals that fed upon well-nourished plants; and human beings whose diet consisted of these fresh and wholesome healthy plants and animal products also enjoyed abundant health.

Organically reared cows, which eat fresh grass, clover pasture and grass clover silage, produced milk on average 50 percent higher in Vitamin E (alpha tocopherol), 75 percent higher in beta carotene (precursor of Vitamin A) and two to three times higher in the antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthine than non-organic milk.

Organic milk not only has more antioxidants but also higher levels of omega 3 essential fatty acids.

More recently, doctors and nutritionists administering “alternative” cancer therapies have found that a completely organic diet is essential for a successful outcome.

According to the Nutritional Cancer Therapy Trust (NCTT), nutritional cancer therapies that involve the avoidance of pollutants and toxins as much as possible, the exclusive consumption of organically grown foods and increases in nutrient intakes, have yielded good results.

The director of NCTT said that “the overwhelming number of patients following alternative cancer therapies are those who have been declared terminal, with minimal life expectancies following initial allopathic treatment. The ability of these patients to gain remission from all clinical evidence of cancer is therefore very significant.”

To sum up, food produced according to organic principles is superior to that produced by conventional means, i.e., with chemical inputs.

Organic foods are likely to have higher nutritional content, such as vitamins and minerals.

They also rarely contain residues of harmful agricultural chemicals or additives, and for the time being, they exclude GM foods that could damage the immune systems and/or internal organs of experimental animals.

Out of all of the nutrients analyzed only niacin levels actually did increase.

The conclusion was very similar for 25 fruits and vegetables under the same test conditions.

Broccoli had a huge reduction in which all nutrients had significantly declined, surprisingly including niacin.

An article from (Natural News) states that soil scientists have known for many years about the decline in soil fertility.

To address the problem, farmers, agricultural companies and governments have advocated a number of solutions which, however, have not ensured that our food is more nutritious.

Farming is big business and the aim is to give people cheaper food and make profits.

This has meant that crops are genetically modified to ensure resistance against disease and to stimulate faster growth, that pesticides and herbicides are used to control pests, that ammonium-based fertilizers are applied to try to improve the soil.

This business has created an entirely unnatural ecosystem, where the soil has become barren and devoid of micro-organisms that are needed to create organic mineral complexes.

The trace minerals have been used up and there is no immediate way to restore the micro-organisms.

The minerals from the soil contribute to producing nutrient rich food (including minerals).

These nutrients are absorbed by us when we consume food.

Like it or not we are connected to the soil. If it’s depleted, then so are we.

Unhealthy, barren soil does not produce food that is abundant in nutrients.

For example, between 1951 and 1999 Vitamin A was completely lost in onions and potatoes.

Soil that is depleted is unable to help nutrient deficient plants overcome attacks from pests and fungus. This means more pesticides are used.

Synthetic (inorganic) fertilizers have little benefit since they create insoluble mineral complexes which are difficult for plants to absorb.

Dr Richard Drucker (of Drucker Labs) reports that healthy nutrient-rich crops need 70 trace minerals, but that farming is only replacing 3-5 of these.

Government authorities have been aware of the problem for 70 years.

In 1936 it admitted that almost all soils in the US were depleted of minerals, and this was reiterated again in 1992 at the Earth Summit.

What does that say about progress?

Another reason why soils are depleted is acid rain.

The University of Maine published a study in the December 2003 issue of the Soil Science Society of America Journal which confirms that acid rain depletes nutrients from the soil.

Authorities have long ignored scientists’ reports that acid rain depletes the soil of nutrients needed for growing trees.

Can we then get minerals from other sources? Drucker believes that the best inorganic trace minerals from coral, colloidal or ionic, have very large and insoluble molecules that are difficult to absorb at cellular level.

Further, once they are absorbed, they accumulate in the body and are stored in fatty tissues. Over time, these substances become toxic leading to possible disease.

Given this problem, we can assume that it will be difficult to get minerals from other sources.

He does suggest that we need high quality supplements until a solution is found.

Organic minerals have very small molecules which are easily absorbed through the cells. The minerals work as activators in the body as they are required to set off chemical reactions.

For example, magnesium is an activator for over 300 enzymes and is important for the energy system of the body.

Dr Linus Pauling is famous for saying that every disease, sickness and ailment is related to mineral deficiency.

The reason is that minerals are required for every cell in our body to function.

If minerals are lacking in our food, vitamins are of no use because vitamins (and enzymes) need minerals for them to work in our bodies.

This means that vitamin supplements would be of no use unless we also have adequate minerals.

Organic crops contained significantly more vitamin C, iron, magnesium, and phosphorus and significantly less nitrates than conventional crops.

There were non-significant trends showing less protein but of a better quality and a higher content of nutritionally significant minerals with lower amounts of some heavy metals in organic crops compared to conventional ones.

Conclusions: There appear to be genuine differences in the nutrient content of organic and conventional crops.

In commercial conventional farming, minerals like iron and magnesium have dropped by more than 80 percent. That’s from the powerful fertilizers they use that practically sterilize the soil – leaving it with little to no mineral content.

Because of the lack of vital vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and phytochemicals in conventionally grown and raised food, those who are on conventional diets cannot possibly live a healthy life, even if they are taking an abundance of nutritional supplements.

The amount of herbicides, pesticides and hormones found in conventional farmed and raised foods make the bodies of those consuming these foods toxic and acidic.

That is a recipe for developing every major disease you can think of and the reason we have so many sick people among those eating a conventional western diet.

So now you know.

If you don’t eat organic, there is no way you won’t eventually get diseased given the lack of nutrients and the heavy content of herbicides, pesticides, and hormones that are in all conventionally grown and raised food.

People tell me that organic food is expensive.  I tell them it is not.

When you consider that organic food has a 50% to 60% higher content of nutrients then conventional food, you will find that you will not have to eat as much.

Your body will get the nutrients it needs, with much less consumption, and no poisons.

Soil all over the US is so depleted of nutrients that even organic farms are feeling the pinch.

This is why it is so important to supplement your diet with all natural nutritional supplements even when you eat organic foods.

To balance the equation for a healthy life, if you drink, drink alcohol in moderation, drink at least 64 ounces of filtered tap water a day, no bottled water, no soda of any kind, no power drinks, and do exercise on a regular basis.

Your life is in your hands, not your doctors.

Be kind to your body and it will be kind to you.

To your good heath & longevity.

Before and after images of a nutritional supplement with 1 hour of scalar wave exposure.

This is a Must Read!

We have added a new dimension to all Good Health Supplement products.

We have now taken our supplements and Goji Juice to a level never before thought possible for nutritional supplements!

We are very proud to be able to bring you:

Bio-Scalar Wave Energy Enhancement Technology:

This is so exciting to share with you.

We have installed an Energy Enhancement System bio-scalar wave chamber, the same system being used by health clinics and spas around the world with great success.

All GHS products are now placed in this special chamber and embedded with energy enhancing scalar waves in a proprietary process.

The development of the “Energy Enhancement System” is based on the work of Nicola Tesla (who was first to demonstrate the existence of scalar waves), later the work of Albert Einstein who developed the practical applications for scalar waves, and now Dr. Sandra Rose-Michael who developed the EESystem we are using.

Why is this so significant and important?

Because bio-scalar energy is a unique form of energy that can be harnessed and embed into solid objects placed in its field.

When embedded in nutritional supplements, scalar waves will make the supplements more absorbable, bio-available, and raise the energy level in your cells.

The higher the level of energy in your cells, the greater your cells ability to absorb nutrients and eliminate toxins and waste.

High cellular energy greatly enhances the performance and effectiveness of your immune system and your body’s ability to heal itself.

All life is energy, with your cell’s energy being measured in millivolts.  The healthiest cells have a charge of 70 to 90 millivolts.

Degenerative diseases begin developing when millivolts are below that level.  As an example, cancer cells measure 15 to 20 millivolts.

Scalar waves are cumulative.

The more embedded supplements you take, the greater the accumulation of scalar waves in your cells and the sooner the energy level of your cells raise to the ideal 70 to 90 millivolt level.

Embedded Scalar waves do not lose their strength as they regenerate themselves.  Test have shown that embedded scalar waves, in nutritional supplements, had increased in strength after  sitting for six months.

Technically: Scalar waves are non linier and will neutralize all man-made 50 – 60 cycle waves in your body from cell phones, computers, micro-waves, etc.

For a fuller explanation of the detrimental effects on your body of man-made waves, see the link at the end of this announcement.

Clearly scalar wave fields have always existed.

They are well known in astrophysics, geology, and hydrodynamics.

A scalar wave field is known as a fifth-dimensional non-linear field.

Third dimensional laws of nature do not bind it.

Scalar wave fields exist out of relative time and space, thus they do not decay over time or distance from their source.

Because of this, scalar wave fields function in a self-referral and self-generating manner. They are unbounded and capable of passing through solid matter.

Some health benefits in consuming scalar wave embedded products.

• Increase overall body energy levels as a result of increasing cellular energy for trillions of cells.
• Eliminate and nullify the effects of man-made frequencies (60 cycle) in the human body.
• Cleanse the blood improving chylomicron levels (protein/fat particles floating in the blood) and triglyceride profiles and fibrin patterns.
• Increase the energy level of every single cell in the body to the ideal 70-90 millivolt range.
• Improve immune function by as much as 149% as proven in laboratory studies.
• Increase the energy covalent level of every single hydrogen atom in the body as verified by spectrographs. This is significant because covalent hydrogen bonds are what hold your DNA together. In other words, consuming scalar enhanced products can protect you DNA from damage.
• Improve mental focus as demonstrated by increased amplitude of EEG frequencies.
• Improve cell wall permeability thus facilitating the intake of nutrients into each and every cell and the elimination of waste from each and every cell. (As a result of the high transmembrane potential mentioned above, scalar enhanced products effectively cause every single cell in your body to detox).
• Balance out the two hemispheres of the brain, again as measured by EEG tests.
• Decrease the surface tension of the embedded products, thereby significantly reducing the time required for your body to assimilate those same products.
• Work as an antidepressant since it inhibits the uptake of noradrenaline by PX12 nerve cells.

Scalar wave enhanced products work faster and better than similar products that have not been enhanced with scalar waves.

We at Good Health Supplements are pleased that we can bring you a way of neutralizing the damaging effects of these detrimental man-made waves by embedding scalar waves into all of our supplement products and goji juice.

Scalar waves are cumulative and will build in your body.

The more you take, the greater the enhancing of your immune system and your body’s ability to neutralize the man-make waves that surround you.

In addition, we are making available for sale, on request, donut shaped pendants that are permanently embedded with scalar waves at the discounted price of $69.

For a fuller explanation of the detrimental effects on your body of man-made waves, see the article titled “Protecting Your Body Against 60 Cycle Energy Wave, Especially Cell Phones“.

To your good heath & longevity.

Dieting With a Full Plate?

In my last newsletter I promised to tell you how to lose weight without going on crash or fad diets, or cutting down on food consumption while everyone around you is enjoying a full plate.

I confess that dieting with a full plate was not my idea.

The idea came from the non-profit Lifestyle Center of America.

They are publishing a book written by three doctors.

The book tells you how you can eat with a full plate of food and lose pounds at the same time.

The book will be available for sale to the public about December of this year.

When it becomes available, I will let you know where you can buy a copy.

The book will help you to change your eating habits enjoyably, and help you to extend your life by slimming down and doing it in a healthy way.

In the meantime I will give you a preview for you to get a head start with and be in better shape for when the book becomes available.

Okay — so what’s the secret to dumping pounds?

The secret is food fiber!

• Fiber bulks you up.
• Fiber promotes elimination.
• Fiber is non-caloric and takes the place of fat building calories you would be eating instead.
• Fiber foods are high in nutrition.
• Fiber foods are tasty and delicious.

To help you burn all those extra calories you do not need, which may cause you problems, your intake of fiber should not be less than 30 grams per day.

To help you reach that goal, I am giving you the following  list of fruits, vegetables, beans, and grains that will be recommended in the book.

The book will also show you ways to add fiber to the foods you already eat, and give you a list of recipes that will help you increase your fiber intake plus desserts that do the same.

It is a wonderful and healthy concept that works.

I am listing the top 5 in each category. They were chosen not only for their fiber content but for their overall nutritional benefits.

Here is the list:

Fruit:
Raspberries  8.0 g fiber/1cup – Pears  5.5 g fiber /1 medium – Apples 4.4 g fiber/1 medium – Oranges 3.1 g fiber/1 medium – Bananas 3.1 g fiber/1 medium.

Vegetables:
Avocado 6.7 g fiber/1/2 medium – Broccoli 5.1g fiber/1 cup – Spinach 4.3 g fiber/1 cup – Sweet Potatoes 3.8 g fiber/1 medium – Carrots 2.3g fiber/1/2 cup

Beans:
Please note.  If you soak your beans overnight, you will not have a gas problem.
Navy Beans 9.6 g fiber/1/2 cup – Lentils 7.8 g fiber/1/2 cup – Pinto Beans 7.7g fiber/1/2 cup – Black Beans 7.5 g fiber/1/2 cup – Kidney Beans 5.7 g fiber/1/2 cup

Nuts & Seeds:
Flax Seeds 5.6 g fiber/1 oz. – Almonds 3.5 g fiber/1 oz. – Sunflower Seeds 3.0 g fiber/1/4 cup – Peanuts 2.3 g fiber/1 oz. – Walnuts 1.9 g fiber/1 oz.

Grains:
Wheat 8.2 g fiber/1 cup – Pearled Barley 6.0 g fiber/1 cup – Quinoa 5.2 g fiber/1 cup
Oats 4.0 g fiber/1 cup – Brown Rice 3.5 g fiber/1 cup

Print this newsletter and keep the list handy so that you can count the number of grams of fiber you are eating every day in addition to what you normally eat.

Strive for at least 30 grams of fiber per day.

Good health is all about what you eat and drink.

And don’t forget about exercise. Exercise makes your lymph system work more efficiently, which in turn will boost your immune system.

You will also do your body a great service if you buy organic.

I know that sometimes that is not possible but try to buy as much organic as you can.

And as a side note…my wife and I saw the movie “Food, Inc.” last night.

If you can find it at a theater near you, don’t miss it.

It is an incredible eye-opener about the few large corporations that control our food supply and the quality of food they ship to our food markets and restaurants.

It is a must see for everyone.  If it doesn’t make you angry, I don’t know what will.

You will learn why this country is the sickest developed country in the world and how to protect yourself from becoming another victim.

It is all about food, and you do have choices.

To your good heath & longevity.

It's Your Choice!

Most of the public never gets to hear about the many proven ways to heal ourselves  because our medical profession is an antiquated dinosaur bound to drugs.

Our FDA does not, and will not, recognize “so called” alternative ways.

In fact, the FDA has made it illegal to claim that a nutritional product or alternative way can heal you. If it is not a drug approved by the FDA, your cure claims will subject you to heavy fines and or jail.

Over the past decade it has been made very clear the strong influence Big Pharma has over our FDA.  Sometimes you would think they were running the FDA.

To make our health conserns even worse, our USDA, who should be insuring that we get safe, nutritional food to eat, is highly influenced by giant food processors allowing them, through over processing, to destroy much of the nutrients in the packaged food sold in our food markets.

Most all of these nutrient deficient foods also contain preservatives, dyes, and taste enhancers that are proven carcinogens  and permitted by the USDA.

Most of these processed foods also contain additives that our USDA, in their wisdom, says the food companies do not even have to tell us about.

Our populace is slowly being poisoned and that is ok so long as the money keeps pouring in.

The USDA also allows our crops and farm land to be poisoned with insecticides and other chemical sprays, and allows the use of Genetically Modified (GMO) crop seeds which contain imbedded insecticides that cause neurological damage to humans.

And that is not all.

The USDA allows the existence of inhuman animal factory farms where the inhumanly packed together animals wallow in their filth and must therefore be loaded with antibiotics to minimize sickness.

These are the cows, pigs, chickens and eggs that are sent to your local food market for your consumption.

Then there are the milk cows that are quietly loaded up with growth hormone that winds up in the milk you drink and give your children.

Sounds like a disgusting nightmare, doesn’t it?  Well it is!

Now you know the real reason our country is the sickest developed country in the world.  It is all about the food and drink made available to the citizens in this country.

Even the Food Pyramid, promoted as a healthy way to eat by our USDA, is a fraud perpetrated on an unsuspecting public.

Instead of being an honest evaluation of what we need to eat and drink nutritionally to maintain good health, it is a token program toward good health designed to appease the large corporate food processors and corporate farms.

In addition we are hindered from hearing about the alternative ways to heal one’s self or prevent disease without the use of drugs.

If you had 1,000 or 10,000 people change the way they eat, and add nutritional supplements, and heal themselves of congestive heart disease, like I did, or heal themselves of some other diseases, you could not say, write, advertise, or promote that you sold an alternative to drug cure without the FDA having you arrested and thrown in jail because you did not follow the FDA’s drug testing protocol and get FDA approval — even though the cure is real!

It matters not that so many people are healed with no side effects.

What matters to the FDA is the protection of pharmaceutical company’s profits and the public be damned!

Anything you do write when merchandizing must be accompanied by a disclaimer that states your product is not meant to diagnose, cure, etc. etc.

Did you know that there is, and has been since 2006, a cure for breast, lung, and liver cancers without the use of drugs, radiation and surgery?

You can check it out at: www.cancercured.org.

You can get cancer cured at a cost less than 10% of the cost of conventional cures and have no side effects.

These people even know the source and will guarantee you won’t get a re-occurrence of the cancer if you follow their protocol.

Find me a medical doctor who will do that for you!

And here are some other outstanding realities:

Most diet drugs do not work.

Others cause side effects and some can cause death.

People who do lose weight, due to diet or drugs, regain the weight as soon as they go off their diet and stop taking diet pills.

BUT – you can permanently lose weight, whether you are just overweight or obese, by just making some changes in the food you eat and what you drink.

You don’t need weight loss drugs, herbs, or starvation diets to shed the pound off your frame permanently.

All it requires is a small lifestyle change.

I’ll tell you how in my next newsletter.

The government’s health care program and health care reform is a total farce.

It is all about sick people and preparing to supply medical and drug treatment to all the millions the government expects will get sick, instead of focusing on our food supply and teaching people how to heal themselves and how to prevent people from getting sick in the first place.

Our government needs to stop subsidizing large corporate farms that supply us with chemical laden fruits and vegetables and start subsidizing only those farms that produce organic produce.

The same for producers of meat, chicken and fish, plus all dairy products.

Only you can make this happen.

You need to let your congress men and women and senators know that unless they change the laws to bring healthy food to market, they will be out of office.

You need to stop buying conventional produce and “so called” natural foods, processed foods, and sodas, and switch to organic food and drinks.

If you vote with your dollar, you will win.

The law of supply and demand is the only thing big corporations understand.

You are the ones who are creating the demand by your purchases.

Stop buying garbage food and the demand will dry up.

Buy only healthy food and the supply will expand.

You and you alone are in control.  Just band together.

Good health, which starts at the cellular level, can only be obtained with healthy food.

To your good heath & longevity.

New discoveries occur so fast, it is hard to keep up with them.

Within the medical community you will find doctors who follow a nutritional path to healing and doctors who maintain that there is no scientific evidence that alternative treatments are successful.

Unfortunately, for the public, there are more researchers and scientist working for big pharmaceutical companies than there are independent researchers.

It is clear from past and present evidence that big pharma is constantly seeking to make a quick buck which interferes with the truth.  So— buyer beware!

It has been well documented by organizations such as OCA and Public Citizen that all too often medical doctors rely on what is told them by pharmaceutical reps, while others have no time to research alternatives.

That is why doctors don’t think that alternatives work.

Doctors don’t realize that today’s alternative treatments often become tomorrow’s standard treatment.

For example, information that doctors use today as a basis for prescribing omega-3 oils as a proven preventative for cardiovascular disease, and as a vital component for neurological development in the young, is the same information they ignored or rejected 30 years ago.

For most of that period doctors were ignorant of the research proving the value of omega-3 oils mainly because the major medical publications rebutted its worth.

Now they all sing its praises as a preventative.

The critical question never asked is, “How many people died or were crippled because of these physicians’ blindness and refusal to objectively examine the science?”

We hear a lot about “evidence-based medicine,” but just how much of traditional medical practice is evidence-based?

Studies have shown that as little as 30% is backed by science.

Since most doctors basically rely on pharmaceutical reps for most or all of their new and current medical information, you can say that most medical practice is accomplished by the seat of their pants.

The term “evidence-based medicine” is a ploy to discredit all alternative treatments, since it implies that everything outside traditional medicine is not “evidence-based.”   The reality is far different.

In fact, most alternative treatment has tremendous scientific evidence.

What they lack is large epidemiological studies since such studies are extremely expensive.   These high priced studies are too often led by physicians with little knowledge of nutrition or by those who are paid by pharmaceutical companies to discredit their competitors which are often the “alternative” practitioners.

Studies have also shown that a number of articles appearing in some of the most prestigious and often-quoted journals have actually been completely written by scientists employed by pharmaceutical companies.

Respected physicians simply added their names to these articles as if they had written the articles themselves.

Fraud in science, and especially medicine, has become a major problem in the United States.

The practice of physicians adding their name to the bottom of an article written by someone else, in now prohibited, by law, in Great Britain.

Another example of physicians’ blindness and refusal to objectively examine and acknowledge the science—is the medical cure for breast and other cancers without the use of chemotherapy, radiation or surgery.

This blindness, and refusal to spend the time to discover the truth, will cost the lives of tens of thousands of women who die needlessly every year.

That cure can be found at:  www.breastcancercured.com.

The pathway to good health is not via drugs, which mostly cover symptoms, and often have serious long term side effects.  Some drugs interact with the food you eat in very negative ways.  Examples below.

Possible Interaction Between Cranberry Products and Popular Blood-Thinner

For those of you who are taking the blood thinner Warfarin (COUMADIN), Public Citizen has issued a warning.  Recent controlled studies have confirmed that people with certain genetic types were susceptible to increased blood-thinning effects of Warfarin (which can be very dangerous) when used with cranberry juice and other cranberry products.

If you are drinking cranberry juice, cranberries or other cranberry products, it is strongly recommended you have your blood more carefully monitored.

LOVAZA: Boxed Warning

LOVAZA, “a drug that is prescribed for lowering triglycerides, now has a boxed warning on its label.  “At the approved dose of 4g/day, LOVAZA has been associated with increased levels of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and has not been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease or mortality.

This dose should only be used to reduce very high levels of triglycerides (more than 500 mg/dL), because such high levels of triglycerides increase the risk of pancreatitis.”

High Trigylcerides Are Generally Diet Related

Cause and effect:  If the problem in not genetic, then the problem is nutritional.

When we eat a poor or deficient diet, all kinds of nasty things will happen to us.

Among other things, a deficiency in Omega 3 oil can easily cause an increase in our triglyceride level.  Correct the deficiency and your triglycerides drop back to normal.

From research studies reported in Public Citizen, Vol. 15, No.4, it is recommended you eat oily fish twice a week and take 1 gram of omega 3 fish oil soft gel capsules per day.

For people needing to lower their triglycerides, or who have had coronary heart disease, 2 to 4 grams per day of EPA/DPA per day fish oil soft gel capsules is recommended.

Congestive Heart Failure

For myself, having had congestive heart failure some years ago, I take 3 grams of Omega 3 per day, along with other supplements, which helps me maintain my heart in peak condition.

CHF is huge in the US.  Over 5 million people suffer from this disease which the medical profession still has no cure for.

Having overcome my CHF without the use of drugs, I would be happy to speak to anyone with CHF to tell them how I helped myself.

If you know of anyone with CHF who wants to help themselves, give them my phone number: 888-824-3745, I will be happy to tell them what I have done that gave me my life back.

To your good heath & longevity.

The war on cholesterol by Big Pharma and the Main Stream Medical Profession is being successfully orchestrated through misinformation and twisted truths mainly by the marketing divisions of Big Pharma.

Clearly with science taking a back seat, marketing’s main objective is Big Dollars and Be Damned with Good Health and Lives.

Understand that Big Pharma doesn’t want you to know what you are about to read.

Before reading the informative excerpt on cholesterol from the book: “Lipitor, Thief of Memory”, by Graveline and Richardson, ask yourself this question: If Big Pharma and the Medical Profession are so right about cholesterol, statin, beta-blockers and blood thinner drugs, why is heart disease STILL the number one killer?

Excerpt:

“There is no doubt that the present notoriety of cholesterol has all but obscured its physiological importance and necessity in our bodies. Cholesterol is not only the most common organic molecule in our brain, it is also distributed intimately throughout our entire body. It is an essential constituent of the membrane surrounding every cell. The presence of cholesterol in this fatty double layer of the cell wall membrane adjusts the fluid level and rigidity the proper value for both cell stability and function. Not all that bad for a substance so maligned in today’s media world that we can use the word to frighten small children.

Children take heed for without cholesterol they would not even be here. Cholesterol, a steroid in its chemical structure, is metabolized into other essential body steroids known as the steroid hormones and is therefore the sole substrate within our bodies for the formation of the very powerful chemicals that determine our sexuality, control the reproductive process and make possible our very existence. This same substance that society has been taught to fear happens to be our sole source for androgen, estrogen and progesterone. Researchers marvel at the remarkable similarity in chemical structure these sex hormones have with each other and with the original cholesterol parent from which they were derived. One might say the glaring family resemblance attests to the mighty power of a methyl group here and a carboxyl group there. The destiny of us all is marvelously controlled by such seemingly minor changes.

This same notorious cholesterol substance is also the parent of a pair of steroid hormones called aldosterone and cortisol. They are of adrenal origin and we could not exist without them. Aldosterone protects the body from excessive loss of sodium and water and is known in scientific circles as a mineralocorticoid. It is absolutely vital for life. Without an adequate supply of aldosterone we would be like an ill-prepared desert traveler destined to die of thirst and dehydration under the glaring rays of a merciless sun as water and salt escape from his body. Cortisol is known as a glucocorticoid because of its effect on glucose metabolism, but it also has powerful mineralocorticoid and immune system functions and is fundamentally involved in the biologic response to the stress in our lives. Both of these vital substances are created in the cortex, the outer shell of the adrenal glands. When the adrenal cortex is destroyed by accident, surgery or disease, death is inevitable within days unless another source of aldosterone and cortisol can be substituted. Like the sex hormones mentioned above, there can be no aldosterone or cortisol unless an adequate supply of the parent substance, cholesterol, is available. So much of our life is dependent on this remarkable substance.

And where would we be without calcitrol? Another offspring of cholesterol, this remarkable steroid hormone is charged with the responsibility for maintaining the proper level of calcium in our bodies. Just as sodium must be maintained at proper levels for us to function, so must serum calcium be maintained within a very narrow range. Without calcitrol the calcium we ingest would pass through our bowels unclaimed. The calcium in our teeth and bones would be rapidly depleted, leading to advanced osteoporosis, skeletal weakness and fractures. The interference with nerve transmission to our muscles would result in a hyper-excitable state. We have all seen cartoons and movies where a doctor gets an exaggerated knee jerk response while checking a patient’s reflexes. In a state of sufficiently low serum calcium there could result not only brisk reflexes but massive seizures of muscles, incompatible with life, in a condition known as generalized tetany. Such is the power of a simple element like calcium on our bodies if homeostatic levels are violated. These observations reflect the labyrinthine complexity of physiologic inter-relationships as more and more of nature’s secrets are discovered. As we refine our research techniques and our microscopes probe ever more deeply into the molecular chemistry of cholesterol, we discover far more mystery, puzzles and questions than we find answers.

Again, cholesterol is the basis of all these steroid hormones without which life, as we know it, would not be possible. But, by no means is the list of cholesterol’s contributions to body function exhausted, for there is another class of cholesterol’s steroid offspring without which our metabolic well-being might be in serious jeopardy: the production of bile acids. Secreted by the liver and stored in the gall bladder these steroids make it possible for us to emulsify fats and other nutrients enabling them to be digested and absorbed as food. In the absence of sufficient bile acids we would all be like those unfortunate souls whose intestinal villi are rudimentary or deficient, which causes them to produce voluminous stools of undigested material while they slowly starve.

The pharmaceutical industry would lead us to believe that rapidly bottoming out our natural cholesterol levels through the use of their highly touted statin drugs is a relatively innocuous process of definite benefit to society. But as we learn more each day of this ubiquitous and unique substance, we must question the veracity of their medical advisors. Cholesterol is perhaps the most important substance in our lives. Researchers everywhere are learning how extraordinarily complex and often surprising are the pathways that produce and metabolize cholesterol in our bodies. Admittedly, even after decades of study of this remarkable chemical, we still have much to learn.

On 9 November 2001 a research news release from the Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Science announced to the world the discovery of the identity of the elusive synaptogenic factor responsible for the development of highly specialized contact sites between adjacent neurons in the brain known as synapses. For years the nature of this magic ingredient had been sought. Not surprisingly to specialists in the field, the synaptogenic factor finally was shown to be the notorious substance cholesterol!

The so-called glial cells of the brain, long suspected of providing certain housekeeping functions, were shown to produce their own supply of cholesterol for the specific purpose of providing nerve cells with this vital synaptic component. As many of you may know, the neuronal synapse of the nervous system is the basis of neurotransmission connecting the brain with the rest of the body. The brain cannot tap the cholesterol supply in the blood, since the lipoproteins that mediate the transport of cholesterol, including both LDL and HDL, are too large to pass the blood-brain barrier, explains Dr. Frank Pfrieger,1 leader of a research group which also included the National Center for Scientific Research in Strasbourg, France. The brain must depend upon its own cholesterol synthesis, which the glial cells provide.

This should be sobering news for those in the pharmaceutical industry developing drugs, which interfere with cholesterol biosynthesis, the mechanism of action of the newer statins. One wonders how anyone knowing the mechanism of brain cholesterol synthesis can seriously challenge the inevitability of cognitive side effects from statin drug use. The only surprise is that there are not more reported cases of memory impairment, amnesia, confusion and disorientation. But even that, we suspect, is due to the almost complete lack of physician awareness of the possibility of cognitive impairment from the statin class of drugs. When confronted with these complaints by an anxious patient on a statin drug, he almost always reassures them that they are older now and should expect senior moments, early senility or perhaps a touch of Alzheimers.

This strikingly positive information about cholesterol is heady stuff, indeed, for a substance with such a bad press. When and if the industry finally vindicates cholesterol, it will not be unlike posthumously elevating Al Capone to knighthood.

Despite the glowing reports statin drugs receive in the press for their risk reduction in stroke and heart attack, strong evidence exists that they do so independently of cholesterol manipulation despite the past 35 years of vilification of this substance. Ravnskov summarizes that statin drug therapy is reported to be almost as effective for women as for men despite the fact that most studies have shown cholesterol not to be a significant risk factor for women. Additionally the elderly are protected just as much as younger individuals, although all studies have shown that cholesterol is only a weak risk factor, if at all, for men older than fifty. Another result mitigating against a cholesterol explanation for statin effectiveness is the consistent observation that strokes are reduced after statin therapy even though high cholesterol is known as only a weak risk factor for stroke, if indeed it is a risk factor at all. Further burying a possible cholesterol effect mechanism for statins is the fact that they protect regardless of whether the patient’s cholesterol is high or low.

Clearly mechanisms other than cholesterol change must be invoked to explain statin drug effectiveness in strokes and heart attacks. Possibilities include such anti-inflammatory action as platelet inhibition and smooth muscle blockage but this paradoxical action of the statin drugs still remains to be explained. Meanwhile the war against cholesterol continues unabated apparently oblivious to the fact that scientific justification for such steadfast focus has all but vanished. As McCully has firmly established, homocysteine elevation and subtle vitamin deficiency states now are taking center stage as factors intrinsic to the development of arteriosclerosis. The role of cholesterol is now seen to be rather a passive one, dragged into a plaque only in its toxic, oxidized form quite alien to the natural substance making up so much of our brain.

More and more research results are accumulating that argue against the merits of excessively low cholesterol in the public at large. The lower the better for serum cholesterol no longer seems to be a valid statement. Certainly this seems to be the case for the cognitive side effects, which Doctor Beatrice Golomb reports are far more common when cholesterol values plummet. Paul Rosch, well-known researcher and spokesman for the scientific community, cites recent disquieting evidence from statin studies on animals that there is a carcinogenic consequence of artificially low cholesterol and a personal conviction that such findings may well become evident in humans after sufficient follow-up time. We can be certain only that we do not yet know the long-term consequences of artificially lowered serum cholesterol through the use of statin drugs. In light of current evidence, for most of us, our present almost day-to-day preoccupation with serum cholesterol values appears misguided.

If cholesterol is our enemy, it is a strange enemy, indeed, for without abundant and immediate cholesterol reserves in our bodies, life is impossible. Our true enemy is arteriosclerosis, the product of other nutritional factors, hypertension, diabetes, smoking and increasing sedentary existence. The end result of this process is plaque formation with inflammation, ulceration and thrombus formation. Cholesterol can be drawn passively into this process but even in the absence of cholesterol elevation, the process continues. C-reactive protein, the product of this inflammatory and ulcerative process, not cholesterol, now is recognized by all to be our most consistently accurate predictor of strokes and heart attacks to come.

Although this information is now common knowledge among those researchers in the field, the overwhelming majority of practicing physicians and lay public still regard cholesterol as public health enemy #1 – such is the effect of thirty-five years of a powerful but misdirected war against fat and cholesterol in our national diet. Truly, much work remains to be done in the field of public health education for cholesterol is not our enemy, it is our indispensable friend! Remember – you cannot live without it!”

By Duane Doc Graveline, M.D.

Most people don’t want to hear that cholesterol is not the cause of their problem. Their expert doctor, and the expert drug company television, newspaper and magazine advertising told them that it was, and who should know better then them?

It amazes me that with all that their doctor tells them and with all that advertising assuring them that cholesterol control is the answer to heart disease, they don’t stop and ask themselves…

“If what my doctor and the drug companies say is really true, then why is heart disease still our number one killer?”

Actually the answer is simple.

The three major causes of heart disease are not curable by drugs, stents or bi-pass surgery. These three major causes of heart disease are easily cured by nutrition.

Big Pharma can’t patent nutrition and that means no money, they can only patent drugs, which mean big money. Their Billions come from selling you, and keeping you, on drugs.

Big Pharma wants you on drugs the rest of your life and if you are on drugs, then you must be constantly monitored by a doctor. Nice cozy money making relationship.

Besides, the main stream medical profession hasn’t got a clue when you start talking about nutrition and honestly believe that drugs and surgery are the only way to go. Don’t believe me? Go ask your cardiologist about curing arterial (heart) disease with nutritional supplements and he/she will laugh at you. No money prescribing nutritional supplements, but drugs and surgery make him/her rich.

People and organizations like NC Research Associates, who have demonstrated through digital infrared thermal imaging that the nutritional supplement GHS Plus™, not drugs, dissolves arterial plaque reversing and preventing heart disease, are totally ignored by the medical profession and are vilified by Big Pharma.

Although GHS Plus™ lowers your cholesterol as part of nutritional balancing in your body, it cannot lower cholesterol like statin drugs do, nor would we want it to.

GHS Plus™ lowers your homocysteine and C-reactive protein levels and protects you from the effects of free radical damage to your arterial walls, the real causes of heart disease, which statin drugs cannot do.

Also, did you know that when you get rid of your arterial plaque you usually lower your blood pressure as well?

Also, listen to a Health Matters Minutes podcast titled Your Cholesterol…Friend or Foe? to discover the shocking truth your main stream medical doctor and the big drug companies don’t want you to know about. Audio length 9:22.

To your good heath & longevity.

Practically every chemical reaction in our bodies is a result of enzymatic action. The digestion of our food is mostly dependent on enzymes.

It is not so much how healthy we eat as to how well our food is digested so that we can absorb the nutrients in the food. We can only do that when we have enough enzymes in our digestive system.

Digestion is the first step in transforming food into the living tissues of our bodies and into the fuel needed to keep those tissues functioning. It is here we need to pay particular attention.

It is impossible to be in perfect health with poor digestion.

Why? Because digestion itself refers to the breaking down of food into particles small enough to enter our cells. Absorption, an integral part of digestion, has to do with the transferring of these minute food particles into our circulation so that these food nutrients can be carried to every cell in our body.

Both digestion and absorption are performed by the digestive system.

Where do enzymes come from?

Our body makes many of the enzymes we need to digest our food. Food itself contains enzymes unless we destroy the enzymes through heating or through processing.

Our bodies cannot make all the enzymes it needs to digests its food and must rely on the help it gets from the enzymes in the food we eat.

It is important to know that enzymes are easily destroyed at temperatures beyond 118°F. This is why a diet of mostly processed foods, which is usually heated beyond 118°F, and pasteurized (160ºF) such as milk and juice lead to digestive problems and poor nutrition.

Food with no enzymes is known as dead food.

A good example is the pasteurized orange juice of which we drink tons in this country. Being pasteurized (dead food), all of the enzymes have been destroyed and drinking this juice is like pouring pure acid down your stomach making it difficult for your body to digest.

Fresh squeezed orange juice (live food) is full of enzymes, easily digestible, providing your body with much needed healthy nutrition.

Here are two important questions:

• Why does poorly digested food have a negative impact on your immune system?
• Doesn’t poorly digested food just pass through your colon and out as waste?

The surprise answers:

• When food is not properly digested, we create “digestive luekocytosis” in which your white blood cell count increases after a meal. (White blood cell count is increased to counter the undigested food your body views as an invader.)
• Because these incompletely digested food molecules are unable to be absorbed through the pores of your intestines into your blood stream, the body then identifies this particulate matter as foreign objects, your immune system forms circulating immune complexes around them. (That’s your immune system’s army surrounding these foreign objects in an attempt to destroy them.) Your immune system now tries to do a job it is not designed to do. It mobilizes white blood cells in an attempt to digest food, stressing your body’s energy and your immune system, doing with great difficulty, what enzymes do very easily and naturally.

It’ a fact, you use 80% of your body’s energy to digest food alone.

With food enzymes present to pre-digest the food, (food that hasn’t been heated or processed) digestive luekocytosis does not occur. Proper digestion now allows your immune system to focus on disease prevention — rather than digestion.

Eating an abundance of raw food such as mixed greens and fruit will measurably improve your digestion. This is especially true because as you age your body begins making fewer and fewer enzymes and is less tolerant of eating dead food.

The practice of enzyme supplementation is a good one to follow. It is the key to assuring complete digestion, absorption, transportation, and the use of the nutrients you consume.

To further aid the digestive process and to help prevent acid reflux, the enzyme supplements you take should contain betaine hydrochloride.

Curing acid reflux with antacids only makes matters worse long term and further starves your cells of nutrients they need to properly function and keep your body healthy.

Antacids negatively interfere, short circuiting the digestive process, preventing much of your food from being broken down to a particle size your intestines can absorb.

Repairing your digestion with enzyme supplementation, eating at least 50% raw food, and eliminating processed and fried foods from your diet will turn your digestion around quickly and lead you back to a healthy body.

To reinforce that statement, know the fact that enzymes are also responsible for elimination of waste and toxins in your body.

To your good heath & longevity.
