What Will Happen To My Bones It I Don't Eat Dairy?

2009-11-02T14:20:55.912+05:30

I think I get this question just about every day.

But the truth is, the U.S., England and Sweden have the highest rates of osteoporosis in the world - and the highest level of dairy consumption.

American women have been getting an average of two pounds of milk per day for their entire lives, including milk, ice cream, cream, yogurt, butter etc. which is measured in pounds.

It takes 10 pounds of milk to make 1 pound of cheese, 12 pounds of milk to make 1 pound of ice cream and worse of all it takes 20 pounds of milk to make 1 pound of butter - all extremely acidic or better said concentrated acid - yet 30 million American women have osteoporosis.
Drinking milk does not prevent bone loss. That's because bone loss is caused by too much protein and sugar intake, like the protein whey and the sugar lactose in dairy.

Science magazine called dietary protein the most important contributor to osteoporosis in 1986. The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition in 1995 explained that "dietary protein increases production of acid in the blood which can be neutralized by calcium mobilized from the skeleton."

A study in the Journal of Nutrition in 1981 found that doubling your protein intake doubled you calcium loss. And a 1979 study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that even someone getting 1400 mg. of calcium daily can lose up to 4% of their bone mass each year on a high-protein diet. The key is not to keep drinking milk for the calcium (getting more and more protein all the while) but to reduce the excess protein in your diet so that the body has no need to leach calcium from the bones, weakening them.

If you want to have healthy strong bones stop eating protein from animals and start eating alkaline antioxidants to buffer dietary and metabolic acids, such as avocado and broccoli which have a high concentration of glutathione - the master antioxidant and protector of bones.

High Protein Diet - High Health Risk!

2009-11-02T14:20:30.393+05:30

As acidic problems have begun surfacing related to high protein diets such as kidney function impairment to the body pulling calcium from the bones to neutralize excess acids from the breakdown metabolites of protein such as uric, nitirc, phosphuric and sulfuric acid, the non-profit organization Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine began tracking folks having health challenges.

For example, in the Good Medicine Magazine from the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, Volume XIII, Number 1, addressed medical complaints from users of high protein diets such as Atkins and South Beach. Here is how they responded:

Loss of energy 50%
Constipation 50%
Bad Breath 34%
Difficulty concentrating 31%
Gallbladder problems 14%
Heart problems 10%
Reduced kidney function 9%
Kidney stones 9%
Elevated cholesterol 8%
Gout 6%
Osteoporosis 6%

Other problems cited include colon polyps, colon cancer, other forms of cancer, heart attacks, severe stomach problems, irritable bowel syndrome, arotic aneurysm, daily hives, elevated iron levels, rheumatoid arthritis, brain hemorrhage, diverticulitis/osis, dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea, headaches, cramps, diarrhea and numbness in limbs, just to name a few.

I guess you might say that high protein diets are diets to die for not live for.

Ron Paul's House Health Freedom Protection Bill

2009-11-02T14:19:52.802+05:30

Ron Paul's House Health Freedom Protection BillSupport this Bill, it's important!Please Forward Widely...Every Letter CountsRon Paul's Given Us a Great Bill to Get Behind!Action Step:Contact your Congressperson to co-sponsor the Health Freedom Protection Act, H. R. 2117.Congressman Ron Paul, MD (R-TX) has done it again. He has introduced a great bill into the House of Representatives, The Health Freedom Protection Act, H.R. 2117. This bill is of monumental importance to your health and health freedom.Short, pithy and to the point, it allows supplements to carry scientifically justified health claims. It shifts the burden of proof to the FDA to prove that health claims are NOT scientifically warranted, rather than assuming that health claims are forbidden as advertising unless they relates directly to either structure or function.Thus, "Cherries may be good for arthritis" would be permitted since there is strong scientific evidence that they help people with joint pain.FDA Restricting Your Right to Know What Supplements Can Do For YouThe FDA does not want you to know how good supplements are for you. If you understand how safe, effective and inexpensive they are, why would you take Big Pharma drugs?When I coined the term "Nutricide" I gave it two definitions:1. The death of a body of knowledge about the health benefits of foods, and,2. The death of large numbers of people through the manipulation of the food supply.The FDA is working on both the first (through tools like the recent dangerous and assaultive "CAM Guidance") and the second (through forcing Codex "HARMonization" on you and your food).It's Your Right to Have Information About SupplementsAlthough Dr. Paul is trained as an allopathic physician, he believes in your right to use supplements and herbs which have truthful, informative health claims on their labels and in their promotional material.The FDA does not believe any such thing, of course. Their endless attacks on truthful health claims are part of a "Pharma-phriendly", lop sided and dangerous policy designed to put drug competitors (i.e., natural products and practices) out of business. FDA policy which attempts to gag real information on natural products while colluding with dangerous drug to hide their dangers.To cite just one example of an unfolding cabinet of horrors, the FDA colluded with drug companies to allow neurotoxic, suicidality-inducing anti depressant medications (commonly known as SSRIs) to be prescribed as if they were safe and effective (despite abundant information showing they are neither)in the very young, the very old and everyone in between.The FDA resisted tooth and nails adding precautionary information ("black box warnings") to labels notifying doctors and patients that these compounds could cause death and injury in a variety of ways (e.g., suicide, homicide, cardiac death, stroke, neuroleptic crisis, etc.) and do permanent harm to anyone taking them. They also buried the information that these drugs did no better than placebo, although placebos did not lead to death or permanent physical injury.And placebos are a whole lot cheaper. Loved ones were lost, families were devastated, brains, livers and lives were injured beyond repair.Truth is Just A Bowl of "Censored" CherriesAt the same time, the FDA threatened the Michigan Cherry Growers Association(MCGA) with severe legal punishment if they did not remove links from their websites to independent peer reviewed scientific studies. These studies, which the MCGA had no role in producing or sponsoring, showed that cherries were good for people who had arthritis.According to the FDA, mounting such "advertising" on their web site which then was making "health claims" TURNED CHERRIES INTO AN UNTESTED DRUG. Of course, cherries are a lot cheaper and safer than, say, Vioxx or Celebrex. Cherries have never been associated with 130,000 plus deaths from heart attacks, but, then, their profit margin is absolutely unacceptable to Big Pharma.You probably recognize this twisted, commerciallyeng[...]

Pasteurized Food Is A Tragedy

2009-11-02T14:19:28.889+05:30

Research has suggested "too much protein" can cause bone loss. It is not the quantity of the protein, but the quality of the protein - whether it has been heated or pasteurized or not. To fully understand the language used in the nature of matter and fermentation is, of course, to understand the microzymian theory and how the Pasteurian theorists have confused the issue and complicated the understanding.

First, in the context of the research and writing of Antoine Bechamp, the fully living, indestructible microzyma, in its unaltered state, is part of its natural surrounding whether it is within a mineral or flesh state with all the measurable frequency and voltage of that substance.

When consumed, the microzyma changes with its new environment to become a building block of another form. If it is not heated, the nitrogenous, protein packed microzyma will still have great energy and able to break down particular pieces of food into liquid globes still having organized electrical power within the long-chain molecular structure of the microzyma.

In this state, the transformed substance enters the bloodstream to be easily organized into blood, and later, into body tissue. In the morbid Pasteurian context, the microzyma is only recognized in terms of microbes and enzymes. This is where the conceptual trouble begins.
Pasteur coined the term microbe and was far from understanding the pleomorphism of matter as Bechamp did. Consequently, Pasteur has created the entire morbid microbe paradigm of heated, pasteurized, dairy products and nearly all other packaged foods.

The pasteurization (heating) disorganizes the microzyma (the origin of organized matter) from its previous state, further releasing the frequency and voltage from the microzyma and releasing its enzymatic charged power. (Pasteur led the public to believe that enzymes were alive and dangerous and those microbes could be suppressed or killed by heat.)

There is nothing so false that does not contain someelement of truth. And so it is with the Pasteurian Microbe or Germ Theory.

The resulting Pasteurized "food" is a tragedy.

Why? Because the food contains little power orlife force to self digest or breakdown from theinside out.

This is true whether the food has nitrogenous material (dietary protein) within it or not which would further result in undigested food bits in the bloodstream(activating the immune system) and the terrible fermentation and putrefication of matter in the colon, thereby setting the stage for sickness and dis-ease.

The key to health, energy and vitality is not in eating Pasteurized protein but eating like COWS - fresh, live,electron rich green foods that are high in chlorophyll,oxygen, alkaline water and mineral salts. All of thestrongest animals eat this way.

The focus should be on the following foundationalfood groups:

The Four Food Groups of the pH Miracle Diet -

C = Chlorophyll - from green vegetables and grasses.
O = Oxygen - this would be nascent oxygen or O1.
W = Water - this would be alkaline water with a pH of 9.5.
S = Salt - this would be whole unprocessed mineral salts.


The reason for eating this way is to maintain thealkaline design of our body and to build healthyblood. When we maintain the alkaline design of our body while building healthy blood we enjoy the highest level of health, energy and vitality.

New Research States that Vitamin K Prevents Calcifications - Warfarin Causes Calcifications in the Arteries

2009-11-02T14:19:01.459+05:30

A study has found vitamin K not only blocks new arterial calcium buildup but can also reduce existing levels of calcification by 37 percent.

Researchers at Maastricht University published their findings in the April 1st issue of Blood, the journal of the American Society of Hematology.

"Given that arterial calcifications are predictive of cardiovascular events, regression of arterial calcification may help reduce the risk of death in people with chronic kidney disease and coronary artery disease," wrote lead author Leon Schurgers.

Schurgers and his co-workers fed 10-week old male Wistar Kyoto rats a diet containing the blood thinner warfarin to induce calcium buildup.

The animals were then separated into four groups: the first group was given warfarin, and the other three groups were taken off the drug. The three groups of warfarin-free animals were given various doses of Vitamin K.

The researchers reported that, in the normal dose Vitamin K group, arterial calcium levels continued to increase even after warfarin administration ended.

"In contrast," the researchers wrote, "high-vitamin K intake (both K1 and K2) not only blocked the progress of further calcium accumulation but also lead to a greater than 37 percent reduction of previously accumulated arterial calcium precipitates within six weeks."

These findings are especially relevant for people who take blood-thinning drugs, which are known to induce arterial calcification by inactivating a protein called matrix GLA, or MGP, a potent inhibitor of calcification. MGP requires vitamin K for activation.

"The medical community now recognizes that vitamin K-dependent MGP plays an essential role in promoting cardiovascular health," said Schurgers, "Our study shows that in an animal model, vitamin K can actually regress preformed calcifications. The health implications for humans are significant."

Vitamin K is found in many kinds of foods, including soybeans, olives, and oils, as well as in dark green vegetables, such as broccoli, kale, spinach and Brussels sprouts.

"What's interesting about this study is that researchers actually used a common blood thinner drug in order to induce a calcium build up in the arteries," said Mike Adams, author of The 7 Laws of Nutrition. "This indicates quite clearly that medical researchers know the best way to cause calcification of arteries is to dose the subject with blood thinner drugs," Adams said. "At the same time, this potentially deadly side effect is not being fully explained to patients who are taking blood thinner drugs such as Coumadin."

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist, microbiologist, nutritionist and author of The pH Miraclebooks, has stated, "I have noted that every client with hypertension, using blood thinners, such as Coumadin, were able to normalize their blood pressure and pulse and discontinue their blood thinning drugs with a diet high in green foods and green drinks."

Dr. Young has also stated over two decadesago that, "the best natural bloodthinning diet is a diet high in Vitamin K, which includes lots of electron rich, alkaline, green foods and green drinks."

Health and Fitness is a Personal Choice

2009-11-02T14:18:37.872+05:30

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention made several statements concerning the top leading causes of preventable deaths in the USA. The research states that the number 1 cause of preventable death is still due to tobacco, climbing to number 2 and soon to take over number 1 is poor diet and lack of physical activity, with number 3 alcohol consumption, number 4 motor vehicle crashes, 5, firearms, 6, sexual behaviors and 7 illicit drugs.The research further states, which is written up in the Journal of the American Medical Association that 400,000 deaths in 2000, or about 16.6% of total deaths were from poor diets and lack of exercise with 435,000 deaths or 18.1% of the total from tobacco, 85,000 deaths from alcohol consumption, 43,000 from motor vehicle accidents, 29,000 from sexual behaviors and finally 17,000 from illicit drugs.Julie Gerberding, Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said, "Obesity is the overt manifestation" of poor diet and sedentary lifestyle, and it's a "preventable risk factor."Now, the most obvious seems to elude us.But for those who have read The pH Miracle, The pH Miracle for Diabetes, and The pH Miracle for Healthy Weight loss, understand that many if not all deaths are preventable and are caused by an over-acidification of the blood and tissues due to an inverted way of living, eating, drinking and thinking.I believe that the list of preventable diseases should also include heart disease, all cancers, AIDS, MS, and diabetes -- just to name a few. ALL of these diseases are just as preventable as death by obesity and tobacco.In fact, the cures for all diseases will not be found in their treatments but in their prevention!For example, tobacco smoke is a colloid of sugar. Every time you inhale tobacco smoke you are taking a hit of sugar. And when you are not smoking or even stop smoking you turn to sugar in other foods to get your acidic sugar fix. You see, tobacco companies’ paint the tobacco leaves with sugar and yeast. These two ingredients are the true leading addicting compounds in tobacco smoke and acidify the tissues of the lung leading to lung cancer and/or obesity.As many of you know, sugar is a major contributor to endogenous acid production and a major contributor to obesity, heart disease and cancer.Why?Because sugar turns to the acid, glucose, and then pyruvate, acetlyaldehyde, a nuero-toxin and then to ethanol alcohol that causes the body, organs and/or tissues to breakdown. This happens in the same way that Heinz 57 (an acid) tenderizes meat - acetlyaldehyde and ethanol alcohol tenderizes your organs and tissues.When excess acid starts to breakdown body cells the body goes into preservation mode by holding on to fat to park these dangerous acids away from the organs that sustain life. This is why WE GET FAT. We get fat because we are over-acidic and the body is trying to save it self from our poor lifestyle and diet choices.Eureka!!!America is not overweight it is over-acidic and 65% of ALL Americans need to get off their "FAT ACIDS and GO TO HEALTH!"Bottom line, it is not fat that is bad it is the acidic lifestyles and diets that are bad. Fat is saving your life! And for the almost 65% of the Americans that are obese if it wasn't for the fat on their bodies to park all the endogenous acids they create through smoking and acidic lifestyles and diets, they would ALL be DEAD!Instead of 400,000 deaths a year we would have 180 million deaths in one year due to acidic lifestyles and diets -- ALL FROM ACID -- NOT FROM FAT.So the next time you think about the extra FAT on your body, be grateful for the extra pounds and thank God for an incredible body that is working to save your life from your acidic lifestyle and diet choices.Always keep in mind that your body is holding on to fat to buffer excess acids and always remember that YOUR FAT is saving your life!The key here is to be thankful and grateful and then get off your acid[...]

The pH Miracle for Type I and Type II Diabetes

2009-11-02T14:18:07.808+05:30

Let's begin making a difference in our Nations health, especially diabetes - the 3rd leading cause of death in the US and the number 1 leading cause of death in children.The Centers for Disease and Control has stated that 21 percent of American adults were obese in 2001, up almost 6 percent form the year before. The rising rate of obesity corresponds with an increase in the prevalence of diabetes, which afflicts one in 12 adults, an increase of 8 percent in 2001. In the United States, 16 million patients have the disorder -- 10 million diagnosed and 6 million undiagnosed. These numbers are expected to double during the next 25 years.I believe they will more than quadruple due to the increase intake amounts of acidifying carbohydrate and protein diets and acidic lifestyle choices. The huge increase in diabetes reflects an enormous rise in Type 2 diabetes due to increased aging, obesity, poor nutrition, coupled with high emotional stress and physical inactivity. Once again, all of these challenges are a reflection of an over-acidic lifestyle and diet! Diabetes is the oldest disease known to humankind, dating back to the hieroglyphics depicting a person wasting their muscle mass into their urine. Diabetes has become an epidemic, yet the disease and insulin metabolism are not fully understood by current savants.My hope is to change the world's awareness and understanding of diabetes with further light and knowledge of the "New Biology: and the pH Miracles of Type I and Type II Diabetes. There are several misunderstandings of diabetes that exist; they include the following but are not limited to:1) Current medical science suggests that obesity is a cause of diabetes or leads to Type II diabetes -- True or False?The answer is false.Obesity is a result of increased complex carbohydrate or simple sugar ingestion and the fermentation of carbohydrates and simple sugars that leads to excess acidity. In addition to the complex carbohydrates, obesity is the result of eating animal proteins that produce acids that destroy the intestinal villi and set the stage for body wasting that leads to diabetes. The body deals with the increase of gastrointestinal and metabolic acids by holding on to fat to store and protect the body from these debilitating acids. Therefore obesity is a symptom of metabolic acids and is protecting the body from excess acids that are not eliminated through normal elimination.2) Current medical savants perceive that Type I diabetes is the result of an autoimmune response or virus leading to an attack on the insulin-producing beta cells in the Islets of Langerhans -- True or False?The answer is false.There is no attack on the insulin-producing beta cells and there is NO virus! When we increase the acidic sugars in our diet we increase the need for insulin and at the same time increase stress on the insulin-producing beta cells. This increased stress causes the beta cells to breakdown or age prematurely. When any cell is broken or begins to disorganize it is the white blood cells that clear out the cellular debris. This so-called autoimmune response is nothing more than the white blood cells clearing out the garbage or broken-down beta cells from overstressed acidic lifestyles and diets!3) Current medical science believes that insulin is needed to regulate blood sugar levels in the body -- True or False?The answer is false.In the 1950's, scientists incorrectly coined the term "insulin dependent" to mean that muscle and fat required insulin to take up glucose. However, glucose is transported into the cells with or without insulin. There are enough glucose transporters in all cell membranes to guarantee adequate glucose uptake to have a cell's respiration requirements work, even WITHOUT INSULIN! It has been shown that adipocytes can uptake glucose without insulin through stimulation of glucose transporters.4) Current medical science suggests that physical (o[...]

The Many Health and Wellness Benefits of Avocados

2009-11-02T14:17:38.662+05:30

In 1932, a great scientist by the name of Dr. Otto Warburg received the Nobel Prize in medicine for discovering the cause of cancer.In regard to Dr. Otto Warburg's cancer research back in the 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's - there is this paragraph in regard to lactic acid production and cancerous cells which have an acidic pH.The crux of his (Dr. Otto Warburg) Nobel thesis was that malignant tumors frequently exhibit an increase in anaerobic glycolysis -- a process whereby glucose is used as a fuel by cancer cells with lactic acid as an anaerobic by-product -- compared to normal tissues. The large amount of lactic acid produced by this fermentation of glucose from cancerous cells is then transported to the liver.This conversion of glucose to lactate generates a lower, more acidic pH in cancerous tissues as well as overall physical fatigue from lactic acid buildup. Thus, larger tumors tend to exhibit a more acidic pH.The above information on the cause of cancerous tissue is important to understand because of the recent developments as follows:First, many of you know Shelley and I operate an organic avocado and grapefruit ranch where we have been doing research and developing many new products for health and wellness, using avocados. We recently released several of these products, under our new label, "pHorever Young", including:1) A liquid avocado extract of glutathone which has many health and wellness benefits.http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm2) An avocado/aloe shampoo and conditioner for all hair types and has been helpful in reversing hair loss.http://www.phmiracleliving.com/young-pHorever.htm3) An avocado base children's alkaline fruit and vegetable supplement.http://www.phmiracleliving.com/index.html4) An avocado base skin moisturizer, andhttp://www.phmiracleliving.com/young-pHorever.htm5) An avocado base alkalizing body cleanser.Second, it is no coincidence that our Ranch is called Ranch Avorado after one of Shelley's characters in her children's book, Doc Broc and the Stone Hinge Cave Adventure, starring Doc Broc and the Avorado Kid.She also has an incredible new recipe book, called "Back to the House of Health, 2" with incredible recipes using avocados.http://www.phmiracleliving.com/books.htmThird, an important research development in regard to the glucose controlling properties of Avocado's by inhibiting glucokinase responsible for glycolysis that in turn retards and reduces tumor growth.And fourth, limiting sugar consumption is not the only line of defense for preventing and reversing cancerous tissue. In fact, a botanical extract of glutathione from the avocado plant is showing promise as a new cancer adjunct. When a purified avocado extract was added to a number of tumor cell lines tested in vitro by researchers in the Department of Biochemistry at Oxford University in Britain, they found it inhibited tumor cell glucose uptake by 25 to 75 percent, and it inhibited the enzyme glucokinase responsible for glycolysis. It also inhibited the growth rate of the cultured tumor cell lines.The same researchers gave lab animals a 1.7 mg/g body weight dose of the glutathione extract for five days; it reduced tumors by 65 to 79 percent. Based on these studies, there is good reason to believe that avocados and the glutathione extract could help cancer patients by limiting glucose to the tumor cells.http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htmSo, drink an Avorado Kid Green Shake everyday or an Avorado Kid Green Popsicle -- just two of Shelley's incredible inventions.We are now hand picking our organic Haas avocados and shipping them directly to your home.

Cell Phones May Increase Your Risk for Brain Cancer

2009-11-02T14:17:13.855+05:30

Some people appear to have an almost pathological emotionalattachment to their cell phones and there is a fascinating suggestion that cell radiation pulses might actually be addictive to the human brain.We can't save those who would rather die than switch. But ethics compelled us to ensure that all reasonable people have access to the basic scientific facts.Your cell phone is a microwave transmitter and it should bear a cancer warning!Microwave energy oscillates at millions to billions of cycles per second. The Journal of Cellular Biochemistry reports that these frequencies cause cancer and other diseases by interfering with cellular DNA and its repair mechanisms.Microwave promotes rapid cell aging.Italian scientists have recently demonstrated that cell phone radiation makes cancerous cells grow aggressively.Cordless phones marked 900 megahertz or 2.4 gigahertz emits the same dangerous microwave radiation as cell phones.The connection between microwave exposure and cancer has been documented for years.During the Cold War, the Soviets irradiated the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, Russia, with low level, twin-beam microwave radiation. Two successive ambassadors developed leukemia. Other staffers also developed cancer, or their blood showed DNA damage, which precedes cancer.-----------------------------------------------Protect yourself from harmful radiation, find out more...http://www.phmiracleliving.com/innerlink.htm----------------------------------------------Research by University of Washington professor Dr. Henry Lai shows brain cells are clearly damaged by microwave levels far below the U.S. government's 'safety' guidelines. Dr. Lai notes that even tiny doses of radio frequency can cumulate over time and lead to harmful effects. He warns that public exposure to radiation from wireless transmitters 'should be limited to a minimum.'Motorola advises consumers to avoid pointing a cellular antenna toward exposed parts of the body. But independent tests show that cell phones can also leak huge amounts of radiation from the keypad and mouthpiece. This radiation deeply penetrates brain, ear and eye tissues, which are especially susceptible to microwave damage.Belt clip cases allow cell phones to deliver radiation to the liver or kidney areas when a wired, hands-free earpiece is used.Recent studies confirm that cell and cordless phone microwave can:* Damage nerves in the scalp* Cause blood cells to leak hemoglobin* Cause memory loss and mental confusion* Cause headaches and induce extreme fatigue* Create joint pain, muscle spasms and tremors* Create burning sensation and rash on the skin* Alter the brain's electrical activity during sleep* Induce ringing in the ears, impair sense of smell* Precipitate cataracts, retina damage and eye cancer* Open the blood-brain barrier to acid crystals and toxins* Reduce the number and efficiency of white blood cells* Stimulate asthma by producing histamine in mast cells* Cause digestive problems and raise bad cholesterol levels* Stress the endocrine system, especially pancreas, thyroid, ovaries, testes------------------------------------------------Protect yourself from harmful radiation, find out more...http://www.phmiracleliving.com/innerlink.htm------------------------------------------------In 1993, the telecom industry committed $25 million dollars for a series of research projects designed to prove that cell phones are safe. The studies proved just the opposite. They proved that federal microwave exposure standards are dangerously inadequate.Cell damage and tumors can be easily induced in the lab at about one third of the FCC's exposure guidelines.The telecom boys panicked. They and their lackey politicians and federal regulators decided the only lucrative thing to do was to LIE and DENY. Despite damning evidence, the FDA still prevaricates:'There is no reason to conclude tha[...]

From A Medical Technologist Point of View

2009-11-02T14:16:42.046+05:30

Dear Dr. YoungAs a medical technologist working in conventional medicine, I have previously not seen a medical concept as powerful as the "New Biology" which you have advanced. "New Biology" not only sets forth the theory and principles for overcoming disease, but it provides the perfect blueprint for something far more important—disease prevention.As a medical technologist registered by the American Society of Clinical Pathology (ASCP), I have been performing blood analysis for the last 28 years in the hospital laboratory. The results obtained in this traditional setting are of a qualitative value and do not show the true picture of blood.It does not show the startling quality and the dynamic unfolding of cells as is explained in your research.For some years now, I have often wondered why so few people seem to get better.I have doubted the approach of the so-called “managed care” and what often amounts to a lifetime sentence to one or more expensive prescriptions. It is not enough for medical science to simply minimize symptoms. Patients want their health back. People want to know how to do that and why they got sick.Modern medicine holds barely a clue as they stumble forward with new drug after new drug, curing no one, while simply managing sickness rather than creating health.When a CBC (complete blood count) is ordered as a routine test for the patient, the sample is run through a machine and analyzed with results for numbers of white blood cells, red blood cells, type of cells, and indices of the blood and platelets. What we refer to simply (and impotently) as "stain precipitate", your language of science identifies, sorts, and categorizes, cells as fibrous thallus, symplast, mucor, rbc & platelet aggregation and mycoplasma. You then go on to explain the significance of these phenomena when found in the patient’s sample and offer suggestions to overcome their implications.There have been many times as a medical technologist that I have wondered to myself just what the results I report from the lab are really telling the doctor. It is less and less clear that the vanilla-like quantitative information received from the lab is helping the doctor, especially when the patients keep coming back and getting the same results and not getting better physically. And yet, no one really addresses their nutritional intake as a means to overcome the phenomenon that they are supposedly trained to treat. The medical personnel who are supposed to play an informative role in this regard simply follow the “allopathically controlled” food group pyramid also. This is not new science and is not at all consistent with New Biology. In other words, if the government sanctioned food pyramid was really working, there would not be such a rise in obesity, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, autoimmune diseases, and osteoporosis, etc……The next part of the routine blood testing done is through a chemistry profile which evaluates the sodium/potassium, chlorides, bicarbonates, liver enzymes, kidney function, glucose levels, heart enzymes (which by the way are not elevated until AFTER the patient has a heart attack) and the basic calcium, magnesium, phosphorus along with a few other values.Again, how many times have we heard, “I am not feeling well, but I went to my doctor, and my blood tests are all normal?”These numbers are rarely out of therapeutic range (except of course for a glucose level, in the case of diabetic).I have seen 4th stage liver cancer patients come in with normal liver enzymes. Yet, how do we conceptualize such an advanced illness in the realm of conventional treatment? How can we explain the fact that the numbers are within a controlled range on these tests? Yet, in the language of "New Biology", and in the reports stemming from your adjunctive blood microscopy, we se[...]

The Adulteration Of Our Food!

2009-11-02T14:16:14.801+05:30

Last year Byron J. Richards, of CCN wrote a wonderfularticle on the adulteration of our food supply withexotoxins, endotoxins and mycotoxins. These bacterialand fungal acids were approved by the FDA in August of2006 to be sprayed on the foods that we eat.This is the first time acids(crystalized viruses)have been approved for use as food additives. TheFDA wants you to believe it will be safe for youto consume these acidic toxins every day for therest of your life with no adverse health effects.This is a monumental announcement by the FDA,indicating they are throwing all caution to thewind regarding the safety of our food supply.Are you willing to stand in line for acidic-ladenfood?How do you like the idea of buying acidic-sprayedfood for your family?The first acidic contaminated foods entering our foodsupply with the blessings of the FDA will be sprayed onluncheon meat and poultry. The foods that will besprayed include cold cuts, sausages, hot dogs,sliced turkey, and chicken. All these foods are alreadyhighly acidic and now that they are being sprayedthey are even more acidic and toxic to eat.At issue is the very real problem of a poor qualityFDA-approved food supply that is already full ofdis-eased and sickly animals, many of them importedfrom other countries. The use of acidic antibioticsduring growth and radiation during food processingis required by the fast-food animal farms owned bymulti-national companies to cover up the horrendoushealth of the animals they wish to feed to Americans.Animals in poor health are highly acidic and thus fullof biological transformations of bacteria and yeast,especially after such meat goes to market.Rather then address the source of the problem, theFDA wants to add another adulteration into ourfood supply.The stated goal of the new FDA-approved acid is tokill a bacterium known as Listeria monocytogenes.This bacterium is transformed matter by cooking;however this bacterium poses no problem. It is abiological transformation of spoiled acidic meat.The real problem is the acidic nature of the meat andthe FDA approved acids being sprayed on the meat, notthe bacterium.The FDA plans to use one acid to fight another acid orusing fire to fight fire. The carnage will end up damagingyour delicate intestinal villi, which the FDA assuresus will not be harmful. However, they cannot possibly becertain that the acidic sprayed foods will not destroythe lining of your digestive tract. The FDA approval wasbased on scant human testing, mostly from unrelatedmedical experiments. Such safety data is woefullyinadequate to determine safe ingestion of a specificproduct by humans over the course of a lifetime.The company that produces these biotech acids isBaltimore-based Intralytix, Inc. The acids are knownas bacteriophages, acids that kill or better said,transforms bacteria, or phages for short. Phages havebeen around a long time, living as parasites insidemany other transformed bacteria.Intralytix uses biotechnology to grow acids or viralphages in a culture with Listeria, in theory teachingthe viruses to recognize the bacteria. But the acids needno teaching - they destroy or transform matter oncontact. The bottom line, acids kill not bacteria andthese acids are exotoxins from bacteria, endotoxinsor cellular fragments and mycotoxins fromyeast and mold.The FDA-approved cocktail contains six different acidsintended to destroy one strain of bacteria.This concoction is then sprayed on food. If Listeriais present in the food, the bacteria will swim inthese acids. This may result in the bacteria simplybursting resulting in bacterial acids/poisonscalled "endotoxins", as the bacteria begins to change.When the bacteria cells burst, these acidic endotoxinsare released. These, along with the sprayed acids,will now be on the food that will be eaten.The[...]

Diabetes Doubles Risk For Stroke!

2009-11-02T14:15:38.146+05:30

Individuals diagnosed with the acidic condition of Type 2 diabetes are at double the risk of having an acid stroke compared to those without diabetes, according to new research from the University of Alberta. It was found that the risk of a stroke is considered high within the first five years of treatment for Type 2 diabetes and more than doubles the rate of occurrence.

Why? Because the treatments for diabetes are focused on the acidic effects (high or low blood sugar) that causes the symptoms of diabetes rather then the cause which are the acidic lifestyle and diet choices.

For this study, the researchers entered 12,272 subjects into a Type 2 diabetes cohort. All subjects were recently diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and had a mean age of 64 years. After five years of monitoring, stroke incidence rates were compared between the cohort and the general population.

"What we found is that 9.1 percent of the diabetes cohort had a stroke within the first five years of their diagnosis," Dr. Thomas Jeerakathil, an assistant professor in neurology, at the University of Alberta. "We also found that compared to persons from the general population of a similar age, the relative risk for stroke was much greater in younger persons with diabetes than for older persons.

As it has been more common to study stroke prevalence within 10 years after diagnosis, this is the first study to specifically examine stroke-related outcomes immediately after the diagnosis of and initiation of treatment for Type 2 diabetes.

Jeerakathil indicates it is possible that physicians are undertreating stroke risks because of a prevailing attitude among physicians and patients that the cardiovascular complications of diabetes occur long after diagnosis rather than in the first five years.

"We hope our findings will help to dispel the notion that the risk of stroke occurs only in the long term and will improve the motivation of both patients and healthcare providers to aggressively control cardiovascular risk factors soon after diagnosis." said Jeerakathil.

The research recently appeared in the American Heart Association's Stroke journal.

The Water Dance of pH, ORP and TDS

2009-11-02T14:15:08.664+05:30

Ionization alters water in two significant and measurable ways: pH and ORP. These alterations to water are what make it very different from other waters you may drink.pHThe pH stands for "potential hydrogen" and is a measurement that provides an indication of the level of hydrogen in a substance. It is measured by the pH scale. Proper body pH is an important factor in good health.If any substance changes from pH 7 to pH 8, it has become ten times more alkaline. Conversely, if it has changes from neutral pH 7 to pH 6, it is 10 times more acidic.As an example, a popular Cola, at pH 2.5 is almost 50,000 times more acidic than neutral water, and needs 32 glasses of neutral (pH 7) water to counteract the consumption of one glass of Cola. (Active ingredient: Phosphoric Acid) You can now see that a change from the normal level 7.365 to pH 7 would mean that your blood would suddenly be around 4 times as acid as it should be.You would die from poisoning by your own blood. This is why every body system is used to support the correct blood pH.You can also understand from this that our blood pH can be affected at any time of the day by a myriad of events; food, drink, stress, pollution, exercise, or beneficially, by meditation, by drinking alkaline water, by deep breathing, even by being happy.The other way an ionizer alters the water is in ORP. This stands for Oxidation Reduction Potential (also referred to as "Redox" - it's the same thing). Most leading water researchers from Asia agree that in ionized water the elevated pH is good, but that ORP is more important. Alteration to the ORP is what causes the microclustering, antioxidant and oxygenating effects.ORPORP is a "potential" energy that is stored and ready to be put to work. It's not necessarily working, but we know that the energy is there and we can measure it. Another way to look at this potential might be to look at pressure. If you blow up a balloon, and there is air pressure inside. As long as the balloon is closed, the pressure remains and can be measured. When released, this potential energy becomes kinetic energy.In electrical terms, potential energy can be measured. When we use the term "potential" in describing ORP, we are actually talking about electrical potential as expressed in millivolts.This potential is measured in water with an ORP meter. What you measure is the very slight voltage in water. We are actually measuring the presence of oxidizing or reducing agents by their specific electrical charge, thus Oxidation Reduction "Potential". High pH water has more "reducing" agents (-ORP) and low pH water has more oxidizing agents (+ORP).Oxidation is what turns an apple brown after it is cut or causes metal to rust. Rust weakens metal and signifies the deterioration of the apple. The process of oxidation “steals” electrons from the surface being oxidized. When we measure a something’s oxidizing potential, it is expressed in +ORP and measures the concentration of OH+ ions or oxidizing agents.A “reducing” agent is simply something that inhibits or slows the process of oxidation. The reducing agent does this by “donating” an electron. When we measure a something’s oxidation reduction potential, it is expressed in terms of –ORP and measures the concentration of OH- ions or reducing agents.In its most basic form a reducing agent is an “antioxidant” ~ reducing oxidation. Follow this link to read more detailed info about the science of pH and ORP.http://www.phmiracleliving.com/water-chemistry.htmThe ORP of most tap water in the USA is between +200 to +600mv and so is an oxidizing agent. High pH ionized water demonstrates a –ORP and so is a reducing agent or “antioxidant”. Most bottled waters are very acidic (low pH) and a[...]

The Acidic Effects of Antibiotics

2009-11-02T14:14:32.407+05:30

New research indicates that children who receive acids from yeast and mold called antibiotics before their first birthday are significantly more likely to develop asthma by age 7.The study, published in the June issue of CHEST, the peer-reviewed journal of the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP), reports that children receiving acidic antibiotics in the first year of life were at greater risk for developing asthma by age 7 than those not receiving acidic antibiotics.The risk for asthma doubled in children receiving acidic antibiotics for nonrespiratory outfections, as well as in children who received multiple acidic antibiotic courses and who did not live with a dog during the first year."Antibiotics are prescribed mostly for respiratory tract infections, yet respiratory symptoms can be a sign of future asthma. This may make it difficult to attribute antibiotic use to asthma development," said lead study author Anita Kozyrskyj, PhD, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB. "Our study reported on antibiotic use in children being treated for nonrespiratory tract infections, which distinguishes the effect of the antibiotic."By using a prescription database, Dr. Kozyrskyj and colleagues from the University of Manitoba and McGill University in Montreal were able to monitor the antibiotic use of 13,116 children from birth to age 7, specifically noting antibiotic use during the first year of life and presence of asthma at 7.The reason for antibiotic use was categorized by lower respiratory tract infection (bronchitis, pneumonia), upper respiratory tract infection (otitis media, sinusitis), and nonrespiratory tract infection (urinary infections, impetigo).Risk and protective factors also were noted, including gender, urban or rural location, neighborhood income, number of siblings at age 7, maternal history of asthma, and pets reported living in the home. Within the study group, 6 percent of children had current asthma at age 7, while 65 percent of children had received at least one antibiotic prescription during the first year of life.Of the prescriptions, 40 percent of children received antibiotics for otitis media, 28 percent for other upper respiratory tract infections, 19 percent for lower respiratory tract infections, and 7 percent for non-respiratory tract infections.Results showed that antibiotic use in the first year was significantly associated with greater odds of asthma at age 7. This likelihood increased with the number of antibiotic courses, with children receiving more than four courses of antibiotics having 1.5 times the risk of asthma compared with children not receiving antibiotics.When researchers compared the reason for antibiotic use, their analysis indicated that asthma at age 7 was almost twice as likely in children receiving an antibiotic for nonrespiratory tract infections compared with children who did not receive antibiotics.Maternal asthma and presence of a dog during the first year of life were both associated with asthma risk. Children who received multiple antibiotic courses and who were born to women without a history of asthma were twice as likely to develop asthma than those not receiving antibiotics.Furthermore, absence of a dog during the birth-year doubled asthma risk among children taking multiple courses of antibiotics."Antibiotics are frequently prescribed for young children for both respiratory and nonrespiratory infections," said Mark J. Rosen, MD, FCCP, President of the American College of Chest Physicians. "Understanding the relationship between antibiotic use and asthma can help clinicians make more informed decisions about treatment options for children."The most important thing to understand is that antibiotics are the acids from[...]

An Email Concerning The Controversy Over Soy

2009-11-02T14:13:55.496+05:30

Hello Ana

I was especilly busy today as I prepare for a trip, and I asked one of our microscopists, a hospital med tech in Pennsylvania, to help me in preparing a response to your questions.

According to the pH Miracle Program, the best soy product is soy sprouts. These young plants have alot of life energy and one of the reasons for the pH Miracle program is to give our body energy instead of robbing the energy from the reserves we have when we are consuming the acidic foods. There has been much controversy about soy and I understand it to be due to the GMO (genetically modified organism).

The purity of the soybean altered will create an unnatural substance and when we are eating this, we are not able to break it down naturally. Species that have been fed a diet of GMO foods were unable to reproduce themselves after a few generations.

The fact that girls and boys are maturing earlier can be attributed to the hormones injected into the animals, stored in their fat, and then our children are eating these animal products.

The compounds in soy do not cause cancer; cancer is an acidic liquid.

The fact that the hormones are not balanced when we consume too much of one hormone can be attributed to the acidic residue from these hormones that are not being eliminated. So, "how much is too much," takes us to the 80/20 rule. Maintain a diet of 80% alkalinity and you will be following the program.

A person with a health challenge, however, may need to go on a "liquid feast" and go 100% alkaline, plus detoxification, at the beginning. Dr. Young discusses this in The pH Miracle book.

Soaking seeds such as flax before eating them releases acidic enzyme inhibitors, partially digests the protein, and allows the food to be less demanding on the alkaline potential for digestion. Sprouting is usually better than soaking. They have a high-water content with a lot of chlorophyll, vitamins and minerals.

Dr. Young has helped pregnant woman through their pregnancy following the same 80/20 rule. Patients following this program have had easier births and pregnancies. As always, avoiding highly acidic foods during pregnancy is best.

"Sick & Tired" written by Dr.Robert and Shelley Young is a much more technical, scientific book for understanding.

Both Back to the House of Health I and II are excellent books with recipes for children and elders, as well as middle-age too. There are recipes in each of the Young's book too.

Please go to http://www.phmiracleliving.com/ and sign up for Dr. Young's free email newsletter. You will find it on the home page. I wish we had more time to respond one-on-one to all questions and related needs.

However, there is a tremendous wealth of information on Dr. Young's website, and he is very available during group retreats at Rancho del Sol.

Best of luck.

I've Been Telling Myself A Big Fat Lie For Years!

2009-11-02T14:13:33.569+05:30

My journey began in earnest when I had a reality check at Leslie's 50th Birthday Bash back in April. It was such a wonderful, fun opportunity to reconnect with precious people from our past.

I assumed 50 something meant middle-aged spread and comfort foods to soothe a guilty conscience. What I discovered, much to my total amazement, were three people who came to celebrate with us who defied all logic (yeah, right!) and every foolish assumption I had ever entertained about that 50 something group! Bobby, Mimi, and our cousin Kathy were three very attractive, fit, confident, HEALTHY 50 somethings that looked twenty years younger than their age!

Obviously, they had found something I totally missed on the journey to mature wisdom!!! I had been telling myself a BIG FAT LIE...for years!

Thus began my quest for the 'missing link' to health and balance. I did some serious praying and God answered. My very dear friends, Jeremiah and Kristi, sent me an email about the pH Miracle thing and it all finally 'clicked' into place. I KNEW this was the answer to all my health questions.

The pH Miracle has revolutionized how I look at and think about daily choices. I have a new very clearly defined goal...LIFE!

That's right - I want my life back! This means I have made significant changes and no longer embrace blatant stupidity in light of the evidence!

Cheers to those who have gone before me and discovered the truth...GOOD health IS a CHOICE! I salute you, respect you, and LOVE your wonderfully disciplined minds!!! I'm on the road to an Extreme Makeover of my own intelligent choosing...watch out!

I've started moving my 'elderly' assets 30-45 minutes every day and I made up a neat little poem to help me stay focused on better food choices.

I'd like to share it with all those I love, which means You!

U.S. Health Crisis! Care In Need Of A Cure

2009-11-02T14:12:31.147+05:30

Dear Family and Friends:Parts of an article by staff writer, Susan Brink, of the L.A. Times are appended below. Even though the L.A. Times show insight into the overall problem, the primary solution discussed herein is not scientifically correct, cost-effective, or a viable solution.This article was called to my attention by my good friend, John Lewis, of the University of Miami School of Medicine. John is also concerned by some of the implications of the following report.As you read the article, see if you can determine why I say that the solution suggested here will not work. I will give you my thoughts at the end of the article. U.S. HEALTH CRISIS! CARE IN NEED OF A CURE: A NEW MICHAEL MOORE DOCUMENTARY ON HEALTHCARE, STINGING CRITICISM BY AN NIH OFFICIAL AND A RECENT GLOBAL REPORT POINT OUT THAT THE NATION HAS FALLEN FAR BEHIND OTHERS WHEN IT COMES TO CARING FOR ITS AVERAGE CITIZEN! - By Susan Brink, L.A. Times Staff Writer, Monday, June 18, 2007.IN the midst of criticism of America's healthcare system over the last decade, Americans held fast to the belief that if you have to be sick,this country is the best place to be. Faced with casual comparisons with Canada or Europe, many were ready with counter arguments: Americans don't have to wait months for bypass surgery, like they do in Canada.Doctors here aren't constrained by government interference. Unlike in England, American patients receivecostly treatments such as hemodialysis even if they are old and infirm.But now, the knee-jerk attitude that the U.S. is the best place on earth to be sick, fueled by the reputations of great institutions like the Mayo Clinic and by America's leadership in drug and technology development, is beginning to be challenged by rigorous international comparisons.There is increasing evidence that, despite justified pride in individual institutions and medicalbreakthroughs, the world's biggest medical spender isn't buying its citizens the longest, healthiest lives in the world.It's not just moviemakers and comics saying so. The dire message thatthe U.S. healthcare system is, by some measures, an also-ran on theworldwide stage is being delivered by doctors, researchers - even insurance industry giants.On screen, slamming U.S. medical care is coming of age with Michael Moore's documentary "Sicko." Through the eyes of people who have faced healthcare catastrophes, he tells graphic stories of the problems with America's system. The movie has received Oprah hype, the ear of some in the California state legislature and the support of several national healthcare advocacy groups weeks before its June 29 release.Considerably more sobering are the warnings from an official at theNational Institutes of Health, who declared in the May 16 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Assn. that the U.S. healthcare system is "a dysfunctional mess." So unusual is it for a government official to speakout against the U.S. system that Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, chairman of the department of ethics at the NIH, emphasizes a point made in print during a conversation. "I'm speaking for myself, not for the NIH or the Bush administration,"he says.As early as 2000, the World Health Organization made the first attempt at ranking all the world's healthcare systems. The U.S. came in 37th out of 190 nations in the provision of healthcare. (France, according to the June 2000 report, was first.) The report was criticized for using inconsistent comparison measures and for failing to note that some countries deny expensive care to very sick patients. Americans could still reasonably cling to their long-held pride.But in 2006, the Organization for Ec[...]

Gastric ByPass Increases Alcohol's Effect

2009-11-02T14:11:50.516+05:30

Those who undergo gastric bypass surgery may find they get drunk faster and sober up slower.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, the reason is that bypass surgery bypasses the stomach, which is the major place where sodium bicarbonate is manufactured and released to buffer and neutralize the alcohol found.

If you're bypassing the stomach, you're bypassing most of the ability to buffer the alcohol with the sodium bicarbonate released from the stomach lining.

After discussing bariatric surgery on "Oprah" and being overwhelmed with questions about how the weight-loss surgery affected the ability to drink alcohol, Dr. John Morton, director of bariatric surgery at Stanford Hospitals and Clinics decided to do his own research.

He studied 19 people who had undergone gastric bypass surgery at least one year before, and 17 control subjects. Each volunteer was asked to drink five ounces of red wine. They then had their alcohol levels tested by alcohol breath analysis every five minutes until their levels reached zero.

The alcohol levels of gastric bypass patients peaked at 0.08 percent compared to 0.05 percent for the controls. Some states consider drivers to be intoxicated at 0.08. It took gastric bypass patients an average of 108 minutes to get to zero while the controls took only 72 minutes.

"The alcohol peaked higher and stayed around longer," Morton said. In addition, the bypass patients reported the same level of symptoms as the controls, even though their alcohol levels were higher."

This led us to think that some patients may have high breath alcohol levels and not be aware of it," Morton said. "

One drink may be too much, especially if you are going to have a drink and drive.

"This is something patients have to be aware of," he said.

"The bottom line is alcohol use after gastric bypass should be used with caution, and certainly patients shouldn't have even a single drink and drive."

Dr. Young suggests taking 1 scoop of pHour saltsin 3 to 4 ounces of water to buffer any acid,including alcohol. "You should do this beforeand after drinking alcohol or eating any acidicfood" said Dr. Young.

For more information on pHour salts go to:

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/pHourSalts.htm

You can also take a pinch of smectite montmorillonite clay and put it in any alcoholic drink to bufferor neutralize the alcohol. If you do not want to effect the taste of the acidic beverage then take 1 scoop of clay in 3 to 4 ounces of purified water, stir and drink.

Dr. Young suggests doing this before and after any acidic meal or drink.

Steve's Amazing Cancer Turn Around

2009-11-02T14:11:14.097+05:30

I thought you might enjoy reading Steve’s amazing cancer turn around in his own words.Hello All,F.Y.I. and on a personal note, in early April I went to a dermatologist and a biopsy was performed in two different areas on my back and forehead and I was diagnosed with skin cancer and was told I had to have surgery and/or radiation.I went on to see an Oncologist at Florida Hospital highly recommended to me and was told the same thing. I was a little freaked out since I had lost my best friend, the godfather to my children, a few years ago to the same thing. He had found knots under his arm pits and had gone to the doctor and under chemo and several hospitals and treatments later, he was dead in six months and died a horrible death.It was already in his lymphatic system so I guess there wasn't much medical science could do. I had the same symptoms for over 4 months before I went to the doctor. The knots were extremely painful under both arms. I thought I was having some kind of allergic reaction to something.After my diagnosis, I called my son Jason and he hooked me up with Dr. Robert Young in San Diego. They do a specialized blood tests with live and dry blood patterns that shows you on a video screen exactly what condition your blood is in compared to what is perceived to be healthy, balanced blood. Mine was pretty scary.http://www.phmiracleliving.com/microscopy-analysis.htmDr. Young advised me to change my lifestyle before I decide to let them perform surgery or radiate me. He said I did not have cancer but that I was so acidic from the way I had been eating, drinking, and living all my life and that I was literally urinating through my skin and lymphatic system.He put me on a strict vegetarian diet with no meat or chicken or fowl of any kind and I ate about 3 salads a day with good healthy oils over them. I did have grilled fatty fish from time to time like tuna, salmon, and a few others and even learned to love broccoli.I also drank at least 6 liters per day of an “alkalizing green drink” that Dr. Young invented which is made up of concentrated and low-heat dehydrated wheat, barley, and kamut grasses, different kinds of sprouts, and green vegetables…each liter is the equivalent of eating about 3 pounds of raw and organic green vegetables and it seemed to make me crave green vegetables even more.I noticed in about two weeks the knots all went away under my arms and I started to feel really good. I lost about 25 pounds in the process, over a pound a day!http://www.phmiracleliving.com/books.htmThe cancer doctors called me in late May and again a few weeks ago panicking for me to schedule a date for surgery, come in, and “get this cancer taken care of”, so I decided to go in and see what they would say.I went in on June 19th and I could tell in the exam that the Doctor looked puzzled. He couldn’t find where the cancer was anywhere in my body and kept asking me if I was certain of the location so I told him what I had been doing since the diagnosis in April and asked him if it was possible that I did not have the cancer any longer.I knew what his answer would be before I asked. He told me it was a “medical impossibility” but whatever I am doing, to keep it up, because he could not find any cancer any more…in fact; he couldn’t even find the scar tissue from the previous biopsy.He did ask if I wouldn't mind coming back in late August for another biopsy just in case. I could tell he was baffled and I can't tell you what a great feeling that was.I guess now I am one of the over 100,000 testimonials for Dr. Young's “New Bio[...]

Omega 3's, 5's and 6's Slow Cancerous Symptomologies

2009-11-02T14:10:30.315+05:30

Research in mice suggests that a diet high in omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil and certain types of fish could potentially improve the prognosis of men who are genetically prone to develop prostate cancer.One of the best sources of Omega 3's for alkalarians and vegetarians is hemp seed oil and flax seed oils."This study clearly shows that diet can tip the balance toward a good or a bad outcome," said senior researcher Yong Q. Chen, Ph.D., from Wake Forest University School of Medicine. "It's possible that a change in diet could mean the difference between dying from the disease and surviving with it."In mice that were engineered with a genetic defect that caused prostate cancer, a diet high in omega-3 fatty acids beginning at birth reduced tumor growth, slowed disease progression and increased survival. The research is reported online today by the Journal of Clinical Investigation and will appear in the July 2 print issue.Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and is a leading cause of death in men in the United States.Population studies have suggested that consumption of fish or fish oil and certain seed oils reduces prostate cancer incidence. However, these investigations have been hampered by the difficulty people have in accurately reporting their dietary intake.The goal of the current study was to explore an alkaline gene-diet interactions in prostate cancer. It involved mice that were engineered with a genetic defect — they lacked a tumor suppressor gene and spontaneously developed prostate cancer. This gene (Pten) is absent in 60 percent to 70 percent of metastatic cancers in humans.The engineered mice and "wild-type" (or non-engineered) mice were fed varying levels of omega-3 and omega-6polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs).Both are "essential" fatty acids, which means the body needs them for proper cell function but cannot produce them. Many seed oils contain omega-6 PUFA and some like Hemp and Flax contain omega-3. Fish like mackerel, lake trout, herring, sardines, albacore tuna, and salmon are high in omega-3 fatty acids.Dr. Robert O. Young recommends that people consume 2 to 3 ounces per day of three parts omega-3 to one part omega-6 PUFA. However, in current Western diets, the proportion of omega-6 to omega-3 is between 30 to 50 omega-6 to 1 part omega-3. These proportions are too high in omega-6.The mice were fed either a diet high in omega-3 (ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 was 1-to-1) a diet low in omega 3 (ratio omega-6 to omega-3 was 20-to-1), or a diet high in omega-6 (ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 was 40-to-1). The scientists compared survival rates and weighed the animals' prostates to measure tumor progression.Mice with the tumor suppressor gene remained free of tumors and had 100 percent survival, regardless of diet. In mice with the gene defect, survival was 60 percent in animals on the high omega-3 diet, 10 percent in those on the low omega-3 diet and 0 percent in those on the high omega-6 diet."This suggests that if you have good genes, it may not matter too much what you eat," said Chen, a professor of cancer biology. "But if you have a gene that makes you susceptible to prostate cancer, your diet can tip the balance." Our data demonstrates the importance of an alkaline pH Miracle Diet interactions, and that genetic cancerous risk can be modified favorable by high doses of omega-3 PUFA from fish or seeds.Chen said dietary changes may be particularly beneficial in people prone to prostate cancer because the disease is usually diagnosed in older men and the tumors are slo[...]

Dr. Young Releases Three New Anti-Aging Pomegranate Products

2009-11-02T14:09:36.927+05:30

Dr. Robert O. Young is excited to announce the release of three NEW incredible all natural and all organic, anti-aging and antioxidant synergistic products.These three NEW products are at the foundation and beginning of a whole new line of anti-aging and anti-oxidant products:1) Young pHorever CLA(TM)2) Young pHorever pHruits(TM) in capsule, and3) Young pHorever pHruits(TM) in powder form.To begin, let me share with you the incredible benefits of Young pHorever CLA(TM):Young pHorever CLA(TM) Pomegranate Seed Oil is cold pressed using an extraction process that provides 100% extra virgin, pure pomegranate seed oil with a very high concentration of Punicic oil.Each capsule contains 1000mg. pomegranate seed oil, a healthy Omega-5 conjugated fatty acid. This is equivalent to the pomegranate seed oil from four and a half whole pomegranates.It takes about 500 lbs of fresh pomegranates to produce 1 lb of pomegranate seed oil.Pomegranate seed oil is one of the only plant sources of conjugated fatty acids (CLA).Punicic oil is a compound closely related to conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) found in pomegranate oil. Punicic oil in pomegranate seed oil, has been called a"super CLA", whose effect is even more potent than ordinary CLA, generally found in animal meats.Did you also know that Pomegranate Seed Oil is an excellent skin moisturizer?Without moisture, our body's fine lines and wrinkles are more abundant and pronounced, our skin looks tight and our complexion lacks luster.Pomegranate Seed Oil possesses natural estrogenic properties that can help revitalize your skin, smooth fine wrinkles, and help you look and feel more youthful.Pomegranate Seed Oil Capsules contain pure seed oil that when applied topically imparts a youthful, radiant glow.Pomegranate Seed Oil offers majoranti-aging benefits, protects against free radicals and damaging environmental effects, and most importantly, leaves your skin feeling baby bottom soft. Skin stays healthy, toned, hydrated and radiates a youthful glow.Young pHorever CLA(TM) Pomegranate seed oil, rich in antioxidants, is also a natural anti-inflammatory that can help provide quick relief from minor skin irritations.Pomegranates and the CLA oil from pomegranate seed oil has received considerable attention of late, for their potential medicinal properties.I will be posting many studies that have been published about pomegranates and pomegranate seed oil at:http://www.articlesofhealth.blogspot.com/On the heels of the discovery by Israeli researchers that pomegranate oil has antioxidant properties, another Israeli team has found thatthe fruit could have important implications for breast cancer treatment and estrogen replacement therapy.The Technion-Israel Institute of Technology research team presented two studies at an international conference last June indicating that pomegranate seed oil triggers apoptosis -- a self-destruct mechanismin breast cancerous cells.Furthermore, pomegranate oil can be toxic to mostestrogen-dependent breast cancerous cells, while leaving normal breast cells largely unaffected.Estrogen is a hormone often prescribed to protect postmenopausal women against heart disease and osteoporosis.In the first study, laboratory-grown breast cancerous cells were treated for three days with pomegranate seed oil. The researchers observed apoptosis in 37 to 56 percent of the cancerous cells, depending upon the dose of oil applied.In the second study, both normal and cancerous breast cells were exposed to pomegranate juice and pomegranate peel extracts, [...]

Pomegranates Protect Against Atherosclerosis

2009-11-02T14:08:51.722+05:30

Researchers have revealed that pomegranates may provide important health benefits for diabetic patients.

According to results published in the August 2006 issue of Atherosclerosis, subjects who drank 180 ml (6 oz.) of pomegranate juice per day for three months experienced a reduced risk for atherosclerosis, a condition that leads to arterial wall thickening and hardening.

The researchers also found that drinking pomegranate juice reduced the uptake of oxidized LDL (“bad” cholesterol) by large, versatile immune cells known as macrophages. Oxidized LDL uptake by macrophages is a main contributing factor to the development of atherosclerosis.

One surprising finding, said lead researcher Professor Michael Aviram of the Technion Faculty of Medicine, was that the sugars contained in pomegranate juice – although similar in content to those found in other fruit juices – did not worsen diabetes disease parameters (including blood sugar levels) in the patients, but in fact reduced the risk for atherosclerosis.

“In most juices, sugars are present in free – and harmful – forms,” explained Aviram. “In pomegranate juice, however, the sugars are attached to unique antioxidants, which actually make these sugars protective against atherosclerosis.”

The findings of this small (20 subjects) study are part of Aviram’s ongoing research into the effects of pomegranates on cholesterol oxidation and cardiovascular diseases. In his previous widely published studies, Aviram was the first to prove that consuming red raspberry reduces cholesterol oxidation and arteriosclerosis, which leads to heart disease, a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the Western world.

His later studies confirmed the antioxidant and anti-atherosclerotic benefits of licorice, olive oil, onions and pomegranates.

2009-11-02T14:08:03.321+05:30

Pomegranates are nearly round, 2-1/2 to 5 in. wide fruit crowned at the base by the prominent calyx.

The tough, leathery skin or rind is typically yellow overlaid with light or deep pink or rich red.

The interior is separated by membranous walls and white, spongy, bitter tissue into compartments packed with sacs filled with sweetly acid, juicy, red, pink or whitish pulp or aril.

In each sac there is one angular, soft or hard seed.

The arils (seed casings) of the pomegranate are consumed raw. The entire seed is eaten, though the fleshy outer portion of the seed is the part that is desired. The taste differs depending on the variety of pomegranate and its state of ripeness.

Pomegranate juice is a popular drink in the Middle East, and is also used in Iranian and Indian cuisine; it began to be widely marketed in the U.S. in 2004. Pomegranate concentrate is used in Syrian cuisine. Grenadine syrup is thickened and sweetened pomegranate juice; it is used in cocktail mixing. Before the tomato arrived to the Middle East, grenadine was widely used in many Persian foods; it can still be found in traditional recipes. The juice can also be used as an antiseptic when applied to cuts. In addition, Pomegranate seeds are sometimes used as a spice.

The primary commercial growing regions of the world are the Near East, India and surrounding countries and southern Europe. In California commercial cultivation is centered in the southern San Joaquin Valley.

One pomegranate delivers 40% of an adult's daily vitamin C requirement. It is also a rich source of folic acid and of antioxidants.

Recent research into the health benefits of Pomegranates has created unprecedented demand both in the United States and Europe. Recent studies have been published showing a positive relationships between pomegranate consumption and prostate cancer, carotid arteries and hypertension.

Pomegranates Lower The Risk of Alzheimer's

2009-10-16T16:01:58.677+05:30

Alzheimer's disease is the leading cause of dementia in people over the age of 65, affecting an estimated 290,000 Canadians in this age category.

It's a progressive, degenerative disease and while the cause is unknown, researchers are investigating a number of different possibilities such as family history, dietary or metabolic acids or elements in the environment.

There are many studies looking at the role of diet in lowering the risk of Alzheimer's. While there's still a lot that we don't know about this dis-ease, there is some research suggesting a role for fruits, vegetables and juices in reducing risk.

A study published in last month's American Journal of Medicine said that drinking fruit or vegetable juice could significantly lower the risk. This was observed when American researchers followed a group of about 1, 800 people over a 10-year period. Those who drank juice three or more time a week were 76% less likely to develop signs of the dis-ease than those who typically had one serving or less every week.

There is some thought that polyphenols, naturally occurring plant chemicals with powerful antioxidant capacity, which are abundant in these foods may provide this protection. These antioxidants have a number of important functions, one being their ability to deactivate harmful free radicals. Some scientists think that there is a link between these free radicals in the body and early changes in the brain cells in people who later develop the disease. When it comes to different fruits and vegetables that may provide protection, new research has looked at components in pomegranates that may also play a role.

A recent animal study suggests that pomegranate juice could lower the build-up of harmful proteins that are linked to Alzheimer's disease. It's probable that this juice alone is not the total answer, but the combination of elements found in a variety of fruits and vegetables may help. If you've never eaten a pomegranate or had a drink of its juice, there are lots of reasons to give this a try.

Open up a pomegranate and you'll find hundreds of tiny red seeds, juicy pulp and a good amount of fibre, vitamin C and more potassium than a medium-sized orange.

Pomegranates and their juice are rich in phytochemicals including anthocyanins and ellagic acid.

Antioxidants

These powerful antioxidants help add pomegranate juice to the growing list of foods that are dis-ease fighters.

There is also some research suggesting that fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids may lower risk. These omega-3 fats are an important part of nerve and brain cells membranes, make up part of the communication network in the brain and are a key component in brain development.

You'll get your omega-3 fats by eating fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, herring, sardines, trout or from foods such as omega-3 hemp seed and flax seed.

Chemopreventive and Adjuvant Therapeutic Potential of Pomegranate for Human Breast Cancer

Fresh organically grown pomegranates (Punica granatum L.) of the Wonderful cultivar were processed into three components: fermented juice, aqueous pericarp extract and cold-pressed or supercritical CO2-extracted seed oil.

Exposure to additional solvents yielded polyphenol-rich fractions ('polyphenols') from each of the three components. Their actions, and of the crude whole oil and crude fermented and unfermented juice concentrate, were assessed in vitro for possible chemopreventive or adjuvant therapeutic potential in human breast cancer.

The ability to effect a blockade of endogenous active estrogen biosynthesis was shown by polyphenols from fermented juice, pericarp, and oil, which inhibited aromatase activity by 60-80%.

Fermented juice and pericarp polyphenols, and whole seed oil, inhibited 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Type 1 from 34 to 79%, at concentrations ranging from 100 to 1,000 microg/ml according to seed oil >> fermented juice polyphenols > pericarp polyphenols.

In a yeast estrogen screen (YES) lyophilized fresh pomegranate juice effected a 55% inhibition of the estrogenic activity of 17-beta-estradiol; whereas the lyophilized juice by itself displayed only minimal estrogenic action. Inhibition of cell lines by fermented juice and pericarp polyphenols was according to estrogen-dependent (MCF-7) >> estrogen-independent (MB-MDA-231) > normal human breast epithelial cells (MCF-10A).

In both MCF-7 and MB-MDA-231 cells, fermented pomegranate juice polyphenols consistently showed about twice the anti-proliferative effect as fresh pomegranate juice polyphenols.

Pomegranate seed oil effected 90% inhibition of proliferation of MCF-7 at 100 microg/ml medium, 75% inhibition of invasion of MCF-7 across a Matrigel membrane at 10 microg/ml, and 54% apoptosis in MDA-MB-435 estrogen receptor negative metastatic human breast cancer cells at 50 microg/ml.

In a murine mammary gland organ culture, fermented juice polyphenols effected 47% inhibition of cancerous lesion formation induced by the carcinogen 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA). The findings suggest that clinical trials to further assess chemopreventive and adjuvant therapeutic applications of pomegranate in human breast cancer may be warranted.
