March 26, 2009  SKIN CANCER AND SUN EXPOSURE

today I Received the following email from Dr Al Sears www.alsearsmd.comA recent National Cancer Institute study reveals that the rate of deadly melanoma jumped 50% in young women yet stayed the same in young men between 1973 and 2004.

What’s behind this trend? Is it mainstream medicine’s belief that women get too much sun exposure?

Let’s see. Sales of sun care products have grown substantially in the past 30-plus years. According to a cosmetic and toiletry report, the global market for sun care products is expected to grow 6% per year to $4.8 billion by 2011.1

Yet the cases of melanoma continue to grow.2

Could it be that the more likely culprit is the sunscreen itself?

Sunscreens block UV rays, eliminating your body’s ability to make vitamin D. Research indicates that vitamin D is the most potent cancer fighter there is. In fact, a Nebraska University report says that vitamin D has the potential to lower the risk of all cancers in women over 50 by 77%.3

Moreover, several common sunscreen ingredients have dangerous, even cancer-causing, side effects. Yet they have never been safety tested or safety approved by the FDA. So make sure to check your sunscreen for the following ingredients…

• Get enough antioxidants, one of your best lines of defense against all types of skin damage.
  
  
  • Vitamin D. Take 1,000 to 2,000 IEUs per day, particularly during the winter or if you live in cold, damp climates with little sunlight.
    
    
  • Vitamin C. Fights free radicals, reduces inflammation, and boosts immune response. Take 500 mg twice per day with food.
    
    
  • Vitamin E. Great for skin health. I recommend 400 IU per day. Look for vitamin E as “mixed tocopherols” on the label. They are the organic compounds most readily absorbed by your body.
    
    
  • Alpha-Lipoic Acid. A powerful antioxidant that protects skin cells from free radicals, guards their mitochondria (the power plant of every cell), and pumps up your cancer defense mechanisms. I recommend 200 mg to 400 mg daily.
    
    
• Get enough omega-3s. Studies show that omega 6:3 ratio is important in preventing skin cancer.6 A tablespoon of cod liver oil a day will replenish your omega-3 levels and keep your skin looking young and fresh. It will also give you a boost of vitamin D in its most natural form.
  
  
• Try rubbing a little mango butter or shea butter on your skin as a sun blocker without the toxic chemicals. You can also use zinc oxide, a natural mineral that provides a reflective barrier on your skin. You can find these in most health food and supplement stores.

Some years ago, Dave had cancer, which we handled with the black salve called Two Feathers Healing Formula.  They (Two Feathers) were harassed and eventually shut down the website.  Just today I have found them again!  Go to http://www.healingformula.net/index.htm  In addition to the salve, they also have a recipe for a three day Liver and Gall Bladder Flush, which is wonderful.  Please visit their site.

November 18, 2008

If you, or a loved one, have Cancer, I want you to know about a website I found which reports on effective and safe, alternative treatments. Go to http://www.holisticcancersolutions.com.  You will need to pay a fee to view these reports (and get access to contact information for practitioners who use them and will consult with you by phone).  It is well worth the price!!  This is not a commercial site.  They are not in the business of selling stuff to you.  Their purpose is to let you know that, no matter what stage of cancer you are experiencing, you can be helped.  You can get an introductory membership for free.

This from Dr. Russell Blaylock:

Prostate Cancer: The current tests used, to screen for prostate Cancer, are not accurate.  This comes from Dr. Douglas' Daily Dose Newsletter.  He says "In other words, the screening methods, regardless of their result, don't increase your chances of survival - but they do increase your chances of living the remainder of your days incontinent or impotent should you choose the surgery many mainstream urologists want to force upon you..." 

A more accurate test is the AMAS. Your doctor should know what that is, if not, find another doctor.

October 24, 2007  I have just learned about an important mineral which is required by all men and which can greatly reduce your chances of developing prostate cancer: boron.  According to Dr. Al Sears, you should shoot for 3-6 mg per day.  Among the foods which are rich in boron are raisins and nuts.  Check the labels on your supplements because a cursory check of mine showed that none of the mineral supplements I have on hand contains any boron at all. The answer could be a simple as a home made trail mix. Ref: Dr. Sears' Dr House Call issue 106.

If you know someone who has been diagnosed with cancer, there is critical information at   http://www.cocoonnutrition.org, http://www.skincanceranswer.com , www.alt-cancer.com and the book "the pH Miracle", below.

You should beware of any cancer treatment - conventional or alternative - but you should know that there are excellent alternatives to cutting, burning, destructive drugs and disfiguring surgeries.  The websites above will give you some insight into actual alternative cancer cures that work. Statistics show that cancer patients who received NO treatment whatever lived on average, 2 years, while patients receiving conventional treatment lived on average 6 months.  Think about it, gather all of the information you can find and choose the treatments which make the most sense to ou want to approach Cancer from several directions at the same time so make dietary changes, choose one or more immune boosters and one or more supplements which destroy Cancer cells.

Regarding the new vaccine "for cervical cancer" which you are being urged to give your daughters: It is not necessary and it is not safe.  For more info, click here.

The Healing Sun by Dr. Hobdan, corrects false information about sunshine.  If you have been hiding indoors, or slathering on sunscreen, You need to read this book!

The bottom line on Cancer is responsibility. You must get as much info as you can on what it is and how to handle it by natural means. Step #1, do a cleanse (at least 7days). Step #2 change your diet to include organic, raw fruits and vegetables in quantity, and a small amount of organic chicken. You need to balance your body's pH. No sugar or sugar substitutes, only a small amount of real whole grains and no vegetable oils (all natural palm and coconut oils are okay for cooking and flax seed oil is excellent as a supplement or on salads). No imitation anything. If you can't find a list of acid/alkaline forming foods, email me and ask for one sue@greatshadesonline.com. Step #3 decide which treatments you will use. If you get plenty of information, you will begin to know which approach will work for you. Trust your gut feeling on this - nobody knows your body better than you do.

CANCER AND NUTRUTION

November 18, 2008

This from Dr. Russell Blaylock:

Blaylock Tip of the Week Why Cancer Kills (and How to Keep It from Killing You) Ironic as it seems, for many years cancer specialists had no idea why cancer killed patients. In some cases, major blood vessels were blocked by the tumor, or the heart was compressed. In most cases, though, the cause defied explanation. Then researchers concluded that death was caused by starvation; that is, the cancer was stealing nutrients from the rest of the body and the patients literally starved to death. Most have seen the emaciated condition of terminal cancer patients. They look like people found in Stalin’s gulag. Armed with this new knowledge, doctors were still hesitant to feed the patients higher levels of nutrients, fearing it would also feed the cancer and make it grow faster. Finally, a few intrepid researchers tried high-nutrition feeding of terminal cancer patients and discovered two things. One, they lived longer and two, their tumors did not grow any faster. A great number of studies have confirmed this finding. Yet, animal studies found that certain nutrients could make tumors grow faster and make them more likely to metastasize. These nutrients included processed sugars and omega-6 oils. In fact, in some animals with transplanted human tumors, the tumors do not metastasize unless the animals are fed corn oil, which is an omega-6 oil. I checked the diets being recommended by a number of cancer centers. To my astonishment, I found that they were recommending that their cancer patients eat doughnuts, cakes, pies, cheesecake, breads and a number of other sources of refined sugar. I remember in one instance, a cancer patient told me she was told her to eat anything she wanted . . . and that the important thing was not to lose weight. Incredible! In 1994, I wrote a book entitled “Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills,” on the harmful effects glutamate and aspartame additives cause to the brain. (For more information, go to my Web site www.russellblaylockmd.com.) Since then, scientists have discovered that a great number of glutamate receptors, the site where glutamate interacts with the cell, are found with some cancers. Stimulating these receptors can make many common cancers grow much faster, become highly invasive, and much more deadly. This was first discovered with brain cancers (glioblastoma multiforme). When these tumors secreted a lot of glutamate, they grew 14 times faster than those that didn’t. Adding glutamate to the tumors made them suddenly invade the surrounding brain. We now know that breast, prostate, melanoma, colorectal, lung, ovarian, rhabdomyosarcoma, pancreatic, and head and neck cancers all have glutamate receptors. Stimulating these receptors causes tumors to grow and invade surrounding tissue. Blocking the glutamate receptors can suddenly make the resistant cancer sensitive to chemotherapy. The irony here is that glutamate additives are common in our foods. Processed foods frequently have several forms of glutamate additives added in high concentrations. Why? They are only used because they enhance the taste of foods. No one is telling cancer patients that these additives enhance the growth of their cancers, interfere with conventional treatments, and stimulate tumor invasion and metastasis. To learn more about glutamate additives and how to avoid them, go here for information on how to get my special report “The Great Cancer Lie.” Although glutamate additives aid the development and growth of cancer, many natural products, including quercetin and curcumin, protect against its development and spread. All are found in vegetables, and many can be purchased as supplement extracts. Learn more about the life-extending properties of supplements by reading my report “Key Vitamins that Save Your Heart, Prevent Cancer, and Keep You Living Long.” Go here for further information. The bottom line is there are many things you can use to prevent and defeat cancer which I discuss in my special report “Prevent Cancer Before It’s Too Late.” Go here for more information. ******************** I highly recommend The Blaylock Report. I subscribe to it and much of the content on this site can be attributed to this great newsletter. *************** November 18, 2008 Here is a link to cancer info from the website below. Click here November 17, 2008 Here is another cancer site for you to check out: http://1cure4allcancer.com/ Start with a cleanse. If you are anything close to an average American, your system is toxic. You must clean it up before natural remedies will work at their best. Change your diet. It is imperative that you move your body to a neutral pH. While there are products which will help, diet is the only thing that you can depend on to do this. Get as much information about the disease as you can. The more information you get, the easier it will be for you to determine for yourself what is true and what isn't. Make your own decisions on treatment - nobody knows your body better than you do and ideas and supplements will begin to "feel right" to you. Investigate those ideas and treatments more - until you either feel confident about them or decide they aren't for you. Don't let anyone talk you out of a method that feels right to you. Be very careful about conventional treatment - the average cancer patient who takes conventional treatment lives 6 months. The cancer patient who gets no treatment at all lives on average 2 years. You can beat it.  It takes persistence.  It takes far less money to be cured by natural methods than it does to die by conventional cancer treatment methods. Get a vegetable juicer and use it daily. You can get one for under $100. Email me at sue@greatshadesonline.com CANCER If you have been diagnosed with cancer, or think you may have cancer, I can't stress to you enough the vital importance of changing your diet. RIGHT NOW you must stop eating anything that comes in a can or box from your grocery store.  Do not eat at any restaurant. Begin eating only raw or lightly cooked vegetables and organic chicken.  Then proceed to choose your method of treatment - There are dozens, possibly hundreds, of different CURES for cancer. None of them has anything to do with cutting, burning, or radiation and chances are excellent that your oncologist won't tell you about any of them. ***I've recently found a great source for up-to-date alternative cancer treatment information. A website, www.cancerdefeated.com. offers the book Cancer Defeated, either in hard copy or a downloadable version.  I ordered it, then began receiving information, via email, from cancerdefeated.com, about more books: Natural Cancer Remedies that Work, Cancer Defeated, Cancer Breakthrough USA, Missing Ingredient For Good Health and German Cancer Breakthrough.  To learn how to get some, or all, of these great books, email custserv@cancerdefeated.com . If you are looking for cancer clinics, these books may help you. They are "Cancer Breakthrough USA A Guide to Outstanding Alternative Clinics" and "German Cancer Breakthrough" Info here. PLEASE LOOK AT THIS IF YOU ARE FIGHTING CANCER. November 11, 2007 HPV vaccine for prevention of cervical cancer Big Pharma has a new gift for teenage girls: Genital warts. That's what you can get from HPV vaccinations, it turns out. The vaccines, you see, actually invade the body with the very viruses they claim to prevent. The result is an increased risk of cervical cancer in many girls, and genital warts in others. Read today's disturbing feature story to learn why: http://www.naturalnews.com/024774.html Oct 19, 2008 RE: Breast Cancer: "In America, husbands who beat their wives are considered criminals. They're arrested and locked away. But those very same men, when wearing a doctor's coat, can assault women with chemicals, slice off their breasts with scalpels and even kill those women... all with impunity. There's not a single breast cancer doctor who has ever been arrested for the death of a patient." I urge you to read the rest of this hard-hitting article from Natural News. http://www.NaturalNews.com/024536.html October 15, 2008 From Natural News: With Breast Cancer Awareness month fully upon us once again, retail stores have been invaded with everything pink, including "pink ribbon" candies and personal care products made with blatantly cancer-causing ingredients. And did you know where all that pink ribbon money really goes? To recruit more breast cancer patients, of course! Nearly 100% of the funds are used to promote "free mammograms," which is just a clever way to CAUSE breast cancer (mammography emits high levels of radiation) and scare women into dangerous, even deadly treatments most of them didn't even need in the first place! Today, we bring you four key stories on breast cancer that every woman needs to read:   Why Dr. Allen chose alternative breast cancer treatments ( http://www.naturalnews.com/024496.html), the innovative glove that helps you find breast lumps ( http://www.naturalnews.com/024494.html), the amazing anti-cancer properties of red cabbage ( http://www.naturalnews.com/024487.html) and the truth about how night lights actually promote breast cancer ( http://www.naturalnews.com/024485.html). Oct 3, 2008 Another great article from Natural News, regarding Vitamin C and Cancer. This article includes a list of natural approaches to curing cancer. VERY informative - http://www.NaturalNews.com/024380.html September 27, 2008 From Natural News today - "Cancer is an indication that something is drastically wrong with what you are putting into your body. If you have a family with a high incidence of cancer, maybe you think cancer is in your genes and you really can't do anything about it. This is not true. No matter what your genetic makeup, it is the choices you make that determine whether genes that induce cancer will get switched on. Cancer is not a deadly disease. Cancer is a life saving wake up call." more....... July 30, 2008 URGENT!

Here is an exerpt from foxnews.com on mandatory mental health screening:

But, according to whistleblower Allen Jones, an employee of the Pennsylvania Office of the Inspector General, TMAP promotes "a comprehensive national policy to treat mental illness with expensive, patented medications of questionable benefit and deadly side effects, and to force private insurers to pick up more of the tab."

The bill has moved onto the Senate, where it will be heard before the end of the year (2008).

Even for those who advocate the medication of problem children, this measure contains too many uncertainties and possibilities of abuse

This is very dangerous!  Do everything you can to keep this from happening. For more info, Google "mandatory mental health screening".

ROSACEA.  I met a woman today who had rosacea in her eyes. A little research told me that this is not all that uncommon.  It also showed me that conventional medicine has little or nothing to offer you.  This woman was told that she would be on antibiotics for the rest of her life!  Really?!  That would really mess up your system.  Antibiotics kill good bacteria as well as bad, so your digestion and elimination would suffer considerably.  The basis of your immune system is beneficial bacteria, so it stands to reason that a lifetime of antibiotics would prettymuch wipe out your immune system.  Natural anti-bacterials like colloidal silver, MSM, Emu Oil, Oil of Oregano, Grapefruit Seed Extract, and others, do not destroy beneficial bacteria, so could be used for years without a negative effect.  Also, bacteria mutate to protect themselves against chemical antibiotics, so they get stronger and stronger (that's how those super-bugs evolved).  That is not the case with natural products. 

If you have rosacea, I encourage you to do your research.  Start with this website: www.NaturalRosaceaTreatments.com.

July 12, 2008

A word of advice:  If you have a health condition, and you want to reverse it, you are going to have to change your diet and do a cleanse. That is the pre-requisite for any treatment.  Sometimes, those two steps alone are enough to handle the problem.  It just is not possible to regain your health if you continue to eat microwaved or chemically enhanced "food" and fail to cleanse your body of the built up junk that's in it.  Even if you don't have a heath problem, stay away from microwaves, MSG, high-fructose corn syrup, soy products, artificial sweeteners and processed grains. Eat something "live" every day - like fresh fruit, raw veggies, raw milk.

The main thing I hope to accomplish, with this webpage, is to get you to take control of your own health.  By law, your medical doctor is only allowed to recommend drugs or surgery for any medical problem you have.  If you ask him about an alternative treatment, the best he can say is that it probably won't hurt you. It's up to you to research and find the safer, more effective, non-drug solutions that exist in abundance.

You are not "stuck" with your current health problems.  Your body renews itself - The lining of the stomach is replaced about every five days; the skin in about one month; the skeleton about every three months, the liver about every six weeks; red blood cells are replaced with new ones after about 120 days.  The trick is to flush out the built-up toxins from a lifetime of incorrect eating, then correct your diet and exercise habits and start getting enough sunshine and fresh air.

I just got my first issue of "The Healing Prescription" newsletter and I want you to know that it's great!  This is not an online newsletter, it comes to you in the regular mail. You can learn about it at www.totalhealthbreakthroughs.com.  This first issue deals with the fact that prescription drugs deplete nutrients, which is largely why they have negative side-effects. If you use any prescription drugs, you may be amazed at what you read in this issue. This is issue one for July 2008.

If you don't find what you are looking for here, email me and I'll do what I can to locate alternative medical information for you.  You are the boss when it comes to your own health.  Don't accept any treatment until you feel that you have enough information to make an intelligent decision about it's effectiveness and any side effects it may have.  And please don't lose sight of the FACT that, no matter what your current condition is, you can improve it.

Conventional medicine focuses on masking symptoms. It does not effect cures. Natural medicine concentrates on locating the cause of your illness and correcting that. Those causes are relatively few. Poor diet is the main problem. With the correct nutrients, your body will take care of itself. However, when the immune system fails, there are numerous natural substances which can help to eliminate the offending virus, bacterium,or toxic substance and get your organs functioning correctly again. The advantages of natural methods are: Low cost; No side-effects; effective healing.

ALZHEIMERS

I have just learned about an old drug which has no side effects and which can help to avoid or successfully treat Alzheimers. It is Hydergine (generic name is Ergoloid Mesylates). When it was originally introduced to this country, it was in the Physician's Reference. It is no longer there. Instead, you will find only drugs which are marginally effective and have unpleasant or dangerous side-effects, for treatment of Alzheimers.  The drug is still widely used in Europe, however. You may learn more about Hydergine at the Life Extension Foundation website.

ANTIBIOTICS

The antibiotics you get from your doctor upset your immune system.  The more antibiotics you take, over the course of your life, the more vulnerable you will be for illness.  There are many natural antibiotics which work very well.  They are not cherry flavored and you won't be having them injected.  Among them are:

AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES

An excellent website for autoimmune disease information is www.gethealthyagain.com Here you will find recommendations for supplements which will aid in your recovery.  This is invaluable information, well-written and easy to read and understand.

   COLLOIDAL SILVER (you can buy a colloidal silver generator for about $25 and, with    proper instruction, you can make better quality silver solution than most of the brands you can buy at the health food store, for pennies. Email me, for ordering info, at Sue@greatshadesonline.com). Silver kills bacteria AND viruses, and more.  No side-effects, no unpleasant taste. You can "sneak" it into your kid's water. Read about colloidal silver at www.silverbiotics.com. If you prefer to buy silver, rather than make it yourself, the Silver Biotics brand is excellent.  Get it at the best price at www.herbspro.com.

   GRAPEFRUIT SEED EXTRACT: Tastes nasty but it works.

   OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT: Either liquid or capsules.

   OIL OF OREGANO: Either liquid or capsules

These are only a few of the products available. All of them are under $30 per bottle - And they work! - And they can't hurt you! If you have a really serious, life-threatening infection, which has been resistant to those $100+ pills your doctor prescribes, I suggest that you go to www.holisticcancersolutions.com, where you will find, in addition to life-saving treatments for cancer, equally amazing, but little known, treatments for major or chronic infections.

ANTI-DEPRESSANTS

You may know that many, if not all, of the incidents at high schools, and now colleges, involving students with guns, also involved prescribed anti-depressants. See this for more information on the effects of psychiatric drugs. Here are actual results of prescribed anti-depressant use.

ASTHMA

There is a product called Vital Ion. It is a liquid, stabilized oxygen product, which is taken orally.  Vital Ion increases the oxygen levels in the body, relieving many symptoms which are caused by lack of oxygen.  It also alkalizes the body.  It can be used externally, as well, to speed healing of wounds and skin irritations.  Bacteria, fungus and  viruses cannot exist in an oxygen-rich environment.  Cancer cannot live in the presence of oxygen.

The most dramatic result I have personally witnessed, from using Vital Ion, involved Dave's Dad.  He had asthma to the point of receiving regular steroid treatments.  He would be out of breath after walking across his living room.  Dave sent him some Vital Ion and instructed him to follow the instructions for the beginning cleanse.  The cleanse calls for heavy use of Vital Ion for a 15-day period, after which one takes just 1 tablespoon daily.  Dave's Dad bypassed the cleanse and started taking the maintenance dose of 1 tablespoon.  After just 3 or 4 days, he phoned Dave and thanked him for saving his life.  The next summer, when we visited, he was doing things he hadn't been able to do for quite some time: chopping wood, moving fallen trees out of the river behind his house, repairing buildings on his property.  That was 10 years ago. At this time, he doesn't need to use Vital Ion daily anymore.  He does still use it regularly, but has no ill-effect if he doesn't use it on a daily basis.

A one-month (maintenance dose) supply of Vital Ion costs only $20. Purchased by the case, the price is reduced.  An 11-bottle case costs just $150.  A 16-bottle case costs only $200. An 18-bottle case saves you 40% over the retail price, at just $230.

Any standard case of Vital Ion contains both daytime formula and nightmare formula.  The day formula helps you feel alert (without stimulants), while the night formula will relax you so you can sleep better (without sleep-aids).  Please contact Dave at dave@greatshadesonline.com to purchase Vital Ion.

....................................................

There is evidence which shows that the fats and oils currently in use in commercially prepared foods are contributing to the increase in asthma in children. More info here.

BABIES AND CHILDREN

Feeding babies: As I'm sure you are aware, the best way to nourish any infant is with mother's milk. For more information on breast feeding, contact La  Leche League.  You will find listings in your local phone book. They can help you with all aspects of breast feeding.

SOY formula: Soy is the worst thing you could feed your baby. Sounds healthy, but don't do it.  More info at http://www.mercola.com/2001/jun/13/soy_formula.htm

Commercial baby food: Read the label! Most prepared baby food contains things you shouldn't eat yourself, much less feed to your baby.  Watch for sugar, Splenda, MSG, unnamed "spices" (which are usually MSG in disguise), and stuff you can't pronounce.  Get a food processor and feed your baby freshly prepared baby food with no added sugar or salt. Most babies are perfectly happy with natural fruits and veggies.  Their pallets haven't been introduced to sugar or salt, yet.  The longer you can avoid that, the healthier your baby will be.  There is plenty of naturally occurring sugar and salt in unadulterated produce.

Please DO NOT give your kids candy or foods which are sweetened with Splenda or any other synthetic sweetener, other than Xylitol!  If your kids are overweight, forbid soft drinks and junk food and make healthy snacks, like natural fruit and veggies, available at all times, with no restrictions.  See www.mercola.com for info on Splenda and other sugar substitutes.

OBESITY & DIABETES in children (and adults) is on the rise.  Fast food is, I'm sure, a major factor.  There is a single ingredient which may account for most of it.  Read this report from Dr. Blaylock.

Two items you want to avoid are MSG and High Fructose Corn Syrup.  If you read the labels on grocery store items, you will find that one or both of these are there. The answer (sorry, Ladies) is real home cooking from scratch.

Xylitol  The one sweetener that I would recommend, in small amounts, is Xylitol.  It has been shown that children who are given Xylitol have fewer ear infections.  That is due to the fact that Xylitol is anti-fungal.  Get a clue here, that most ear infections are caused by fungus, which will not be handled with a prescription antibiotic.  Further, antibiotics destroy beneficial bacteria which are needed for proper digestion and maintenance of the immune system.  The more often a person receives conventional antibiotics, the weaker his immune system becomes.  You should ONLY allow your child to be put on antibiotics when it is ABSOLUTELY necessary.  There is a long list of natural substances which have antibiotic properties and those should be used first.  For more information on antibiotics, consult www.mercola.com, Kevin Trudeau's books or any comprehensive book or website which sells herbs and vitamins. Update: here is a very good breakdown of the properties of Xylitol. Since I wrote this, I have come to believe that another sweetener, Erythritol, is also a good one.

* * *ADD/ADHD: drugs are not the answer!

 Ritalin stunts growth of children; long-term risk to children's health unknown  Please click here to read this article.

The first thing to do, if someone suggests that your child has ADD or ADHD, is to investigate the situation thoroughly.  Many times, such kids are BORED.  Bright children often complete tasks before the rest of the class (or don't see the merit of the task because it's too easy for them).  Once they are finished, they will do something else, while they wait for the rest of the class to catch up.  Usually, the "something else" turns out to be deemed disruptive behavior.  Move your child to another class, or another school, or home school your child so that you may adapt the learning process in a way that will appeal to him/her and hold his/her attention.

Secondly, or concurrently, stop all sugar, soft drinks, food coloring, processed or packaged food.  Often, sensitivities to these items, as well as wheat, dairy, eggs, etc. can cause reactions which manifest as behavioral problems. There is also a possibility that your child could be deficient in one or more minerals, or vitamins, particularly B12.

Frustration can also cause behavior which can be labeled ADD/ADHD.  Frustration can be caused by poor eyesight, poor hearing, or incomplete information.  By that, I mean some part of his studies which may have been missed, or not completely understood by him, making further study of the same, or subsequent, subjects difficult to comprehend.   In this case, you will need to go over earlier lessons with him and find the items which were not understood, then  help him clear that up.  Continue from there, to move forward through his studies until you reach the current level, ensuring that all is understood fully. If he still has trouble, in the restudy, you haven't gone back far enough.  There will be other misunderstood words or concepts further back.  Actually, the bottom line here, is that it's always going to be a word that is at the bottom of the puzzle.  When you find it (them) be sure to use a dictionary, at the proper level for your child, to get it fully cleared up.  One way to find such words, is to have your child read the material out loud.  Whenever he stumbles on a word, stop him and get it understood.  Then, go back over what was just read.  It should make sense to him at that point and he should be able to read it smoothly.  If not, go to an earlier point and do the same process.

An excellent book for kids, whether they are currently having trouble with study, or not, is "Learning How To Learn" by L. Ron Hubbard Information in this book will help your child to recognize that he is having trouble, before it becomes a problem that requires some kind of help or intervention.

Here is an article which may help you with treatment of ADD/ADHD http://www.naturopathyworks.com/news/newsltr0602.html

re: Autism

Vaccinations:
* IMPORTANT NEWS FLASH!  if you have children, or plan to have them in the future, you need this vital information:  In 1992, 1 in 10,000 children were autistic.  In 1999, that number increased to 1 in 500.  Today, that figure has jumped to an astounding 1 in 250!  Autism is linked to childhood vaccinations!!  Go to www.mercola.com and read Dr. Mercola's newsletter, issue 339, dated July 6, 2002 for more information. Also on this website is an article on how to avoid vaccinating your children.

* * *

The most important thing you can do for your child's health is to ensure that he/she is getting a proper diet for his/her own body. Raw dairy (if you can get it, otherwise, minimal dairy), fresh fruits and vegetables, low or no sugar, no chemical sugar substitutes (Splenda, Sweet n Low, etc), limit packaged foods, processed foods, commercially prepared snacks and please don't rely on a microwave oven to heat or cook your kid's food..  With proper nutrition, rest and exercise, your child's immune system will function well and keep him/her healthy.  Remember that (contrary to what you hear on TV or read in magazines) you should not shelter your child from every germ and microbe! Teach them to wash their hands regularly, with ordinary soap, but do not disinfect everything your child comes in contact with.  Encountering the ordinary germs found in every home contributes to the development of the immune system.

Make sure that your child gets plenty of sunshine! No sunscreen - start, in spring, with short periods of time in the sun and work up to longer periods, to avoid sunburn.  Sunshine is absolutely necessary for a healthy immune system.

The Healing Sun by Dr. R Hobdan, corrects false information about sunshine.  This is critical reading!

CANDIDA:  Candida is explained in the April 14, 2006 newsletter from Dr Darrell Wolfe, in an article entitled "The Candida & Fungus Within Us".  He says " It is a largely unknown and underestimated enemy; Fungus overgrowth in the human body."  The article outlines how fungus contributes to chronic and degenerative diseases such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, anemia, heart disease, and more.  It goes on to tell you what to do about it. Contact Dr Wolfe through his website at www.thewolfeclinic.com

***Here is something I want to stress to you: When you ask your doctor why or how you came to have the symptoms or disease that you are consulting him for and he says something vague, like "some people get it an some don't" or "you aren't as young as you used to be" or "it must be hereditary", etc. DO NOT BUY THAT "EXPLANATION"!  There is a reason.  There is a cause. ALWAYS!  And there is something you can do about it. In many cases, if not all, the cause will be either fungus or Lyme disease (see Lyme disease below).  You can eliminate it and regain your health.

DANGEROUS MEDICAL DRUGS AND TREATMENTS

Recently, there was an article, written by Dr.Joseph Mercola, in the Journal of American Medical Association, entitled  "Doctors Are the Third  Leading  Cause of Death in the U.S"  Dr. Mercola states that 250,000 deaths per year are from iatrogenic causes.  (iatrogenic: induced in a patient by a physician's activity, manner, or therapy.  Used especially of a complication of treatment).  Read this, and more, at http://www.mercola.com.

DENTAL HEALTH

March 15, 2006

Did you know that your tooth enamel can be regenerated? That's not the half of it.  Check out TOOTHSOAP here.  This is amazing stuff.  I use it and love it!  It took a while for me to get Dave to try Toothsoap, but eventually we ran out of toothpaste, so...  He loves it, too!  After just a few days of Toothsoap, placque started falling off of his teeth.  The problem he had, with gums bleeding when he brushed his teeth, is a thing of the past.  What I noticed, more than anything, is that my teeth are not sensitive, anymore.  I have had sensitive teeth all of my life! 

************************************************************************

FLU  NOTE: Tamiflu - The "flu drug", Tamiflu, at best, shortens the duration of the flu by 1.3 days. It cannot cure the flu.  The side-effects of the drug are the same as the flu symptoms. A much better approach is to increase your intake of vitaminD, take a good probiotic supplement and avoid sugar and junk food, at least through the "flu season". As for flu vaccine, it is innefective as often as not.  Read the book, below. NOTE May 29, 2008: Tamiflu has now been shown to cause self-injury behavior and other life-threatening side-effects.

GENERAL HEALTH

 If you think that enzymes are only for digestion, you need to read this website. It's VERY informative!   http://www.enzymestuff.com/

STOP SMOKING? There are hundreds of gums, pills, patches and other treatments which say that they will help you to stop smoking.  To be 100% truthful, I think  that the only way you will ever stop smoking is if you really make the decision to do so.  That is: you can't quit for someone else.  You have to decide that you don't need to do that, anymore and begin to see yourself as a non-smoker.  Many products have helped numerous folks with the detoxification part of it and to curb the urge to smoke.  What did it for me and for Dave, was New Beginnings.  It is a cold laser treatment which utilizes acupuncture points to end the craving for tobacco, and to relax you.  This is not just one treatment, but as many as you need, in a 6-month period, to get the job done.  For more information, click on the link above or go to www.stopsmokingnow.com or call 1-866-543-7867 toll-free.

Lyme Disease  I have just learned that anyone (in fact, nearly everyone) I know could be affected with Lyme Disease and not know it.  This insidious infection manifests as so many different and seemingly unrelated symptoms that it's impossible to know that the problem is caused by Lyme Disease.  Recently, I had some live blood analysis done, by a doctor friend of mine, which showed that I had Lyme Disease.  A little research, and advice from the Good Doctor,  revealed the interesting fact that Lyme Disease is relatively easy to get rid of.  It is not to be taken lightly, however.  It has been found to be associated with over 300 disease entities. Learn more about Lyme Disease here.

It is entirely unlikely that your family physician will be able to tell you whether you have Lyme Disease. It won't show up in standard medical testing until it has become a very serious problem.  Live blood analysis can easily spot it, though.  This is not expensive and any good natural practitioner should be trained and equipped to do it for you.  I highly recommend it.  In addition to Lyme disease, live blood analysis shows indicators  of toxicity, stress, poor digestion and can even warn you of future heart disease or cancer.  With the information at hand, you have the opportunity to make changes in your lifestyle and diet to reverse these problems before they create major illness.  What a blessing!  My thanks to my friend!

SPIDER BITE Please see Dr Stanley Abrams' website www.spiderbitetreatment.com,.  This is a must-read for everyone.  The Brown Recluse Spider bite is a nasty wound which is frequently "treated" by amputation of the affected digit or removal of surrounding tissue.  This extreme treatment doesn't work, however, because the venom is systemic and continues to work its nasty way around the body.  Dr Abrams has the answer.

VISION

Last winter, I   had some eye trouble.  I was seeing flashes of light and had some minor pain. I researched my symptoms and learned that they were indicative of detaching retina. After consulting my several online Dr websites, I ordered a product called Ultimate Vision Support,  made by Real Advantage Nutrients.  I ordered three bottles.  By the time I was halfway through the second bottle, I was no longer having eye trouble and, in fact, my vision had improved, as well.  Buy it at www.realadvantagevitamins.com

MACULAR DEGENERATION: Every day, we meet people who have Macular Degeneration.  It affects people of all ages.  They are all told that there is little, or nothing, that they can do about it.  In fact, there are dietary changes that you can make which can slow it down.  Read this article entitled "How to Remedy Macular Degeneration". 

If you have been diagnosed with Macular Degeneration (ARMD, or AMD), there is a book you should read, entitled "The Macular Degeneration Handbook".  It is available from Agora Health Books at PO Box 925, FredericK MD, 21705-9838 or order by phone (915) 849-4603 or FAX (410) 558-6359.

Glaucoma: If you have Glaucoma, it may interest you to know that some people have had success with Emu oil.  Sometimes you can find Emu oil eyedrops, but ordinary Emu oil dropped into the eyes can help to carry excess fluid away from the eye, reducing the pressure it creates.  Try it for a month or two - you have nothing to lose.

Parkinson's Disease: I have just learned that COQ10 may be helpful in slowing the progress of Parkinson's Disease.  COQ10 affects the mitochondria of the brain. In the study, doses of 600, 800, and 1200 mg/day were used.  The highest dose was the most effective and had few or no side effects reported.  Considering the other options available, which are few to none, this is definitely something I would try.

News: There is a drug which is effective in slowing the progress of Parkinson's Disease.  This is not a drug which is approved for use in the U.S.A.. Learn more about Deprenyl at the Life Extension Foundation website.
