"Fibromyalgia affects approximately 10,000,000 people in the
United States and Canada. There are some estimates that would place that
number even higher. The incidence of fibromyalgia is greater the farther
North you go. The average age at onset is between 35 and 55 years old,
but fibromyalgia can affect any age. Approximately 90% of those affected
are female. The average time between the onset of symptoms and the establishment
of a diagnosis is 5 years." Rob Robertson,
M.D.
Fibromyalgia
is a painful disorder for which mainstream medicine has no solution other
than heavy, and often ineffective, use of painkillers, along with lifestyle
changes. It affects 20 million Americans, with high rates of occurrence
in women. Related to rheumatoid arthritis, it too is an autoimmune disorder
involving muscular pain, fatigue, insomnia, headaches, depression,
chest pain, low-grade fever, swollen lymph nodes, insomnia, frequent abdominal
pain, irritable bowel syndrome, and depression, may accompany the muscle
pain. Now you don't have to "Just learn to live with it"
Dr. Rob Robertson and Dr. William Hennen present: The
Fibromyalgia Recovery Program
To inquire about ordering
the Fibromyalgia Recovery Program on CD please
Dr. Rob Robertson has produced a video to help educate all of us about
the challenges associated with Fibromyalgia (FM), and what you can do for
yourself to begin your road to recovery. If you have been diagnosed
with FM, you know very well the variety of symptoms that that can challenge
you every day.
Perhaps you have been told by a well-meaning but uniformed doctor that
you will "just have to learn to live with it." Well guess what...
you do have options. The good news is, your symptoms can be diminished
or reduced by using natural, nutritional products that address these symptoms.
Dr. William Hennen M.D. has created two natural products
that are FM specific. They are FibroAMJ, a day-time formula, and
a night-time formula for those of you who suffer from unrefreshing sleep.
Dr. Hennen also brings us Transfer
Factor Plus, the ultimate immune boosting natural
product.
Rita is a 52-year-old with a history of chronic bone and muscle pain
that affected her on a daily, literally moment-to-moment basis. She was
given multiple diagnoses, until finally the diagnosis of Fibromyalgia was
made in mid 1999. She visited us in July of 1999 and we shared the Fibro
regimen of 4LR (transfer factors, Fibro Day and Night, and EFA's) with
her. She tried it for a month, with "astounding" results within the first
four weeks of supplementation. Now a full 6 months into supplementation,
she rarely requires any pain medication (an occasional Advil or aspirin)
and now lives a full life with little, if any discomfort. She will start
taking Nutra-Leane soon and hopes to have a positive experience with weight
control. Most importantly, her spirit has returned to the Rita we once
knew. And all we did was share what we have learned from 4LR! Sharing is
a powerful thing! This is our second success story with people with Fibromyalgia,
the first being a 63-year-old grandmother of 5, who now "can hug her grandchildren
the way a grandmother should be able to." She too has a "full life" with
an estimated 80% reduction in pain and nearly full function, with much
improved sleeping at night.
Duane Townsend M.D. - "I have seen Transfer Factor knock
out colds, sore throats, etc., but it also has helped Fibromyalgia,
neurological problems, chronic yeast infections. All of our cancer
patients are using Transfer Factor."
"I was actually confined to a wheel-chair. The pain was so excruciating
that I feared I'd never walk normally again. I thought that after
struggling with Fibromyalgia for years, it had finally won.
Then I was introduced to the Fibromyalgia Recovery Program.
I now lead a totally normal life and am determined to tell everyone I can
reach that, despite what I'd been told, "You don't have to learn
to live with it." - Linda Baker
"I've had chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia since August 1991.
I've also had shingles five times in that period. This winter I had shingles
very bad from the end of September until the end of February and still
have them somewhat. I'm able to get up and get dressed at this time. I
started on Transfer Factor and the FibroAMJ system about six weeks ago,
and I am now sleeping through the night with no sluggishness the next day.
I have energy, and every morning I am able to get up at 7:30. My husband
will verify that it has been many years since I've done that. I've been
packing to move for 12 days straight and I have energy every single day.
I was not able to cook a meal and do the dishes in the same evening; I
would cook a meal and do the dishes the next day, or possibly even the
next, because I could not stand on my feet. So I'm extremely excited about
Transfer Factor and I want to tell everybody that has fibromyalgia to please
take this and get yourself well. " B.F. Oregon

Life-Giving Properties of Marine Phytoplankton
Dr. Jerry Tennant, MD,
from the Tennant Institute of Integrative Medicine, explains that the micronutrients
and electrolytes in marine phytoplankton (microscopic
plants/organism that live in the ocean) are exactly what human cell membranes
need to carry out their metabolism. Not surprisingly, the composition of
human plasma, or fluid surrounding cell membranes, is similar to that of
sea water. Relying solely on land-based food sources may lead to deficiencies
in these micronutrients and electrolytes. While transient sub-optimal nutrition
may be forgiven, a constant diet lacking in these micronutrients will adversely
affect every function, structure, and detoxification functions of the human
cell. Good nutrition will enhance the structure and function of all organs
in our bodies. Our brains, muscles, hearts, arteries, joints, bones, skin,
hair, hormones, immune system, vision, digestion, kidneys, liver will carry
out their jobs much better. Metabolically, our lipids, and sugars can be
optimized, thus providing more overall energy, minimize weight problems,
and improve sleep. These nutrients improve mental function, and memory.
They reduce depression, harmful effects of stress, and mood swings.
"I had back surgery in 1979
and 1982. I spent a year in bed trying to get rid of the inflammation,
which didn't work so I have spent the last 25 years on painkillers and
anti inflammatories. I also have high blood pressure, GERD, Fibromyalgia,
Pan Sinusitis (operated on in 2005) and heel spurs, and of course a weight
problem. I am a walking talking piece of art. I started taking Marine Phytoplankton
two weeks before Easter. I started with a bang! 1 oz. in the morning and
1 oz. at night, with the idea that if it works - great! (I really didn't
expect that it would). I would give it a valiant effort and take one case.
If there were no changes, then I wasn't buying anymore. This Easter I had
16 people over for dinner. We left on that Wed. for Fairmont for 4 days
and on the next Friday I drove to Red Deer for a three-day convention.
I usually do the family gatherings here at home as I am always on painkillers
and anti inflammatories. Surprise, I didn't need any and my leg didn't
burn! While I was in Fairmont we sat around and ate and ate, and then went
to the convention and sat for hours and hours and ate way too much the
rest of the time. Normally I don' t sit well, I'm usually the one in the
back pacing back and forth, but not this time. After all this eating for
two weeks, I thought if I only put on 5-7 pounds that I would be laughing.
I actually lost weight! That is unbelievable for me! have lost weight
every single week since I started taking Marine
Phytoplankton (now affectionately know as Mom's "joy juice"). I have
more energy, the Fibromyalgia is almost non-existent,
and my blood pressure pills and my Losec for the GERD have been cut in
half. My feet don't bother me, and my specialist who did my surgery for
the pan sinusitis said to keep taking my steroids or I will be back in
for another surgery, guaranteed - but it all looks great! Little does he
know that I haven't taken the steroids at all. My family doctor wants me
to take the Marine Phytoplankton at the 2 oz. per day for three months
and then see her. She had noticed that I had lost weight, moved better,
and looked better (lack of pain will do that for you). She is very interested
in Marine Phytoplankton. My only pain now is sore cheeks from smiling,
and I am constantly saying I can't believe that I don't have any pain -
it's awesome!" D. K.

"There are very few products that provide all, or even most, of the raw

the rebuilding of a healthy life) is
marine phytoplankton.
It contains the nine amino acids that the body cannot make...The essential

Dr. Robert Rowe Ph.D

having since taking the phytoplankton. However
she had misunderstood the amount she should be taking – she was consuming
mere drops, rather than the proper ounces. Having been a student of homeopathy,
it suddenly dawned on me there must be a major energy component activated,
even though her dosage was so small. The work of Fritz Popp came to mind:
Dr. Popp, a world renowned physicist, found that living things emit small
packets of light called photons. We can see the phosphorescence produced
in the ocean when the water is stirred at night; we are able to see the
sparkling photon light produced. Dr. Popp was able to show that the effects
of a compound could be duplicated just by bombarding water with the electromagnetic
frequency of the compound, which is how homeopathy works. Other
amazing testimonials: Healing with Marine PhytoPlankton
Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D.
says that marine phytoplankton contains almost
everything one needs to sustain life and to restore health by providing
the raw materials to make new cells that function normally. Marine phytoplankton
has been called "the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Containing
a wide range of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll,
enzymes and cellular materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains
optimum health by boosting and supporting all systems within the body.
Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations
that can lead to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens
increase energy and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use
oxygen. Adaptogens also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening
the heart and circulation.

Neurotoxin:
MSG and How it is Hidden in our Food and Vaccines
Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)
has been used for many years as a flavor enhancer for a variety of foods
prepared at home, in restaurants, and by food processors. FDA has studied
adverse reaction reports and other data concerning MSG's safety for many
years. Ingestion of monosodium glutamate (MSG) is known to produce a variety
of adverse reactions. These reactions, although seemingly dissimilar, are
no more diverse than the reactions found as side effects of certain neurological
drugs. Jerry Smith, a clinical pharmacist from the University of Florida
found our web site and contacted us for more information. He has written
a case report on four fibromyalgia patients
whose symptoms markedly improved after decreasing the MSG in their diets.
With the help of their physicians, he will submit the report to the JAMA
for publication. We can only hope that more doctors will become alerted
to the real dangers of MSG, aspartame, and other excitotoxins as a result.
More scientific studies and cold hard facts will eventually make a difference

Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome and the Yeast Connection
By William G. Crook, M.D.
Because of my interest in
CFS, about a year ago I began working on a new illustrated book titled
Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome and the Yeast Connection -- a "get well" guide
for people with this often misunderstood disorder -- and those who care
for them. (Publication date: July 24, 1992.)
This book will discuss the
many factors which play a part in causing the illness known as Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome. These include viral infections, food sensitivities, chemical
pollutants, nutritional deficiencies, parasites and psychological stress.
In some individuals with
CFS, the illness develops suddenly following an acute epidemic viral infection
similar to the one that occurred in Incline Village, Nevada in 1984 or
the Los Angeles Hospital in 1930. Yet the observations of Carol Jessop,
a leading CFS clinician and researcher, show that this disorder often develops
insidiously -- especially in individuals who give a history of:
* Repeated
courses of antibiotic drugs in childhood, adolescence or adult years
* Recurrent
vaginal yeast infections
* Diets

Magnesium
Deficiency's Role in Fibroyalgia/Chronic Fatigue
Results of a preliminary
study including 24 people with fibromyalgia suggest that a proprietary
tablet containing both malic acid and magnesium may improve pain and tenderness
associated with this health condition when taken for at least 2 months.
Others suggest that the combination of calcium and magnesium may be helpful
for some people with fibromyalgia. Magnesium chloride is nothing
short of a miracle mineral in its healing effect on a wide range of diseases
as well as in its ability to rejuvenate the aging body. We know that it
is essential for many enzyme reactions, especially in regard to cellular
energy production, for the health of the brain and nervous system and also
for healthy teeth and bones.
Some early signs of magnesium
deficiency are loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and weakness.
Increased deficiency may show as numbness, tingling, muscle contractions
and cramps, seizures, personality changes, abnormal heart rhythms, and
coronary spasms. Severe deficiency results in low levels of calcium in
the blood (hypocalcemia), and is also associated with low levels of potassium
in the blood (hypokalemia).
more
"I personally started taking
magnesium for spasms and facial tics, only doing so on my own after neurologists
simply told me to either get better sleep or take a prescription drug.
The magnesium helped almost immediately, and I then slowly increased the
dose to about 225% the RDA (balanced with 100% calcium RDA) At that point,
all spasms and tics stopped completely, and they have not returned since
starting that dose several years ago. I doubt any traditional doctor
would have been willing to prescribe that much magnesium. The RDA is 400mg,
but many people believe this is too low. Traditionally, it's been
recommended to take calcium and magnesium in a ratio of 2/1, because that
is the ratio that these minerals are found in bone." (more
on healthy bone program) ---- The
Role of Magnesium in Fibromyalgia
Magnesium
deficiency is very common in the general US population. Not only
is our daily intake low, but we eat a diet which increases the demand for
magnesium. And unfortunately, urinary magnesium loss can be increased
by many factors, both physical and emotional. Magnesium loss increases
in the presence of certain hormones. Stress can greatly increase
magnesium loss. Even loud noises can extra magnesium loss. One article
on the web goes so far as to say that that almost everyone is the United
States is at least marginally deficient in magnesium. So there is
an excellent chance that a person with fibromyalgia has a magnesium
deficiency. But since people with fibromyalgia often have high
levels of stress, and a disrupted hormonal system, they are more likely
to be candidates for magnesium deficiency. Magnesium utilization
is also increased by the presence of estrogen, and this might explain why
many women are diagnosed
with fibromyalgia after menopause, when estrogen levels would decrease.
Additionally, the sleep disruption which occurs in fibromyalgia might also
affect magnesium utilization, as sleep deprivation has been shown to cause
lower magnesium levels.
Magnesium is extremely important
to many functions in the body, which is why a deficiency can cause many
different symptoms. It is most widely known for being needed for
proper bone formation. With a deficiency, bones will be soft, and
it can play a role in osteoporosis However, magnesium is also
the activating mineral for at least 350 different enzymes in the body,
more than any other mineral, so it is crucial for many of the metabolic
functions in the body. Magnesium is necessary for almost all the
enzymes that allow the glycolytic and Krebs cycles to turn the sugar and
fat we eat into ATP. Low levels of ATP have commonly been found in
people with fibromyalgia, and it is believed that this plays an important
role in many of the fibromyalgia symptoms. Thus, a magnesium deficiency
would definitely be a factor in worsening those symptoms.
Migraine headaches, mitral
valve prolapse, and Raynaud's phenomenon, all problems commonly found in
people with fibromyalgia, are also problems that have been associated with
a magnesium deficiency. Without enough
magnesium, nerves fire too easily from even minor stimuli. Noises
will sound excessively loud, lights will seem too bright, emotional reactions
will be exaggerated, and the brain will be too stimulated to sleep, all
symptoms commonly found in fibromyalgia. And if the oversensitivity
to light and noise reminds you of someone suffering from a hangover, they
are one and the same problem, as alcohol is known for decreasing magnesium
levels, and magnesium supplementation has been found to relieve hangover
symptoms.
Another commonly found condition
in fibromyalgia which has nervous related symptoms is reactive hypoglycemia.
Anxiety related symptoms occur after carbohydrate intake, and this is believed
to be due to either an excess release of adrenaline, or a higher
sensitivity to adrenaline. In either case, a deficiency of
magnesium could be a factor, as "magnesium
has been found to slow the release of both adrenaline and noradrenaline,
and to partially block adrenergic receptors."
Magnesium
(various types and forms)
Magnesium
is a natural tranquilizer
Called the "anti-stress
mineral," it aids in relaxing nerves, relieving tension, assisting digestion,
activating enzymes important for protein and carbohydrate metabolism, and
modulating the electrical potential across all cell membranes. Magnesium
is important in the production and transfer of energy, muscle contraction
and relaxation, and nerve conduction. It also aids regularity, is necessary
to keep vertebrae in their proper position, induces restful sleep, purifies
and purges body tissues (combats acids, toxins, gases, impurities, and
neutralizes poisons), and lowers fever. Magnesium is stored in the bowel,
nerves and ligaments. Chlorophyll and green vegetables contain large amounts
of magnesium. more

Identify and

Illness does not occur without
cause. Causes may originate in many areas. Underlying causes of illness
and disease must be identified and removed before complete recovery can
occur. Symptoms can be expressions of the body's attempt to defend itself,
to adapt and recover, to heal itself, or may be results of the causes of
disease.
CHRONIC
FATIGUE SYNDROME: THE HIDDEN POLIO EPIDEMIC by Dr. William Campbell
Douglas
Dr. Richard Bruno, New Jersey
Medical School, Department of Physical Medicine, pointed out, in the New
York Academy report, that of more than a dozen outbreaks of CFS before
the introduction of the Salk vaccine, nine occurred during or immediately
after polio outbreaks and several of the victims of CFS had been taking
care of polio patients. As the polio vaccination program opened the door
for these opportunistic relatives of polio, the CFS epidemic gathered steam
and the new polio was upon us. One of the forerunners in this research
is Dr. Elizabeth Dowsett, a microbiologist from Britain. Dr. Dowsett states
unequivocally what you don't hear in this country: True CFS (as differentiated
from other fatigue states) "strikes one clinically as being polio-like
and it has often been diagnosed as 'nonparalytic polio.' "

Relationship
to Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/M.E. and the Possible
Role of Vaccines
by Prof. Garth L. Nicolson
Complex Role of Toxic
Exposures in Chronic Illnesses Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS), Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encepthalomyelitis (CFS/ME) and Gulf War Illnesses
(GWI) are characterized by similar chronic signs and symptoms. This
is why we proposed that GWI is a CFS/ME illness. Other chronic illnesses,
such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Inflammatory Bowel Disease, among others,
also show many of these same signs and symptoms, suggesting that there
may be some overlap in the underlying causes of these conditions or at
least in the factors that may result in sickness (morbidity) or illness
progression. The treatments of chronic illnesses that are due to toxic
exposures from chemical or radiological agents are quite different from
the treatment of chronic infections [2]. The treatment of chemically exposed
patients usually involves removal of offending chemicals from the patient's
environment, depletion of chemicals from the patient's system and treatment
of the signs and symptoms caused by chemical exposure(s). Chemically exposed
patients are often extremely sensitive to a variety of commonly encountered
chemicals, including perfumes and air fresheners, petrochemical fumes,
chlorine, cleaning solutions and solvents, among others. They are
also very sensitive to certain foods, and special diets are often necessary,
and in some cases direct skin contact with certain substances can cause
strong cutaneous reactions. Therefore, an important part of treatment
for chemical exposures requires limiting exposures to a variety of common
chemicals and gradual removal of the toxic chemical.
Autoimmune
or Viral Disease? Consider Vaccine Contamination
by Dr. Joseph Mercola
"...Dr. John Martin, currently
at the University of Southern California School of Medicine, detected a
herpesvirus-related DNA sequence in several people suffering from Chronic
Fatigue syndrome. Martin points the finger at contaminated vaccine lots
found in early years of the Polio vaccination programs and suggest that
animal viruses may have been inadvertently introduced into humans. “If
a vaccine program were to be initiated today,” says Dr. Martin “One
surely would not import wild monkeys from Africa, create short term primary
kidney cultures, add a human virus and administer the crude batch derived
from virally infected cells to virtually every child in the country.” Monkey
kidney cells are used for Polio and Adeno vaccines, while dog and duck
kidney cells have been used for rubella vaccines and chicken cells used
for measles and mumps vaccines. Martin and Tommisc both suspect these animals
viruses, possibly now co-mingled with human herpes-virus, to be the cause
of many of the diseases they are seeing today..." more
VACCINATIONS
- DECEPTION and TRAGEDY Why are a growing number of parents
and health care professionals around the world questioning vaccination?
The controversy stems from the thousands of deaths and permanent disabilities
attributed to vaccination annually, as well as the many published medical
studies, government statistics, congressional testimonies, and other credible
sources that directly contradict commonly held assumptions about vaccine
safety and effectiveness.

The Immune
System
Immunity:
The body's defense department
Most modern maladies are
caused by prolonged exposure to a combination of negative lifestyles and
toxic environmental factors, including junk food and malnutrition, pesticides,
antibiotics, microwaves, chemical pollution of food, water and air, lack
of exercise and chronic stress. (more info)
These factors are further
aggravated by the failure of modern medicine to recognize them as agents
of dis-"ease" and death and the consequent failure to take preventative
measures against them. By rebuilding immunity, health is naturally restored
and disease disappears. If health and immunity are thereafter conscientiously
maintained, the individual is no longer vulnerable to disease.
The sort of health care required
to restore immunity and prevent disease begins at home, not in the clinic,
by eliminating factors which impair immunity and cultivating habits which
boost it. Though it requires individual effort, self-discipline and personal
responsibility, preventative health care is always a good investment, in
time as well as money, because once you fall ill, it takes a lot more time
and costs a lot more money to acquire vibrant health again. Furthermore,
every time you lose your health, the road to recovery gets longer and rougher,
demanding a growing investment for diminishing returns. By investing in
your immunity now, you insure your future health and guard your life at
minimum cost. more

Nutritional
Influence On Health
Malnutrition is the basis
of all disease: "Man's body is a living organism, made of living cells,
which require living food in order to be properly nourished and function
well. When we put cooked food into our body, loaded with contaminants,
the body starts to break down. It begins in the very young with colic,
rashes, colds, earaches, upset stomachs, swollen glands and tonsils. As
the child grows older, their may be tooth decay, pimples, the need for
eye glasses, etc. Then as we enter adult life there is arthritis, hypoglycemia,
heart attacks, strokes, diabetes and cancers. All this and a multitude
of other diseases are unnecessary and are nothing but the result of improper
diet and lifestyle! Today, most people accept cooked food as the
normal means of supplying the body with nutrients, not realizing that the
living cells of our bodies do not take nourishment from the dead and artificial
ingredients found in cooked food. And so, after a typical meal of cooked
meat, cooked potatoes, a cooked vegetable and a piece of cooked 
bread,
followed by a cooked sugar desert, their stomach is full and they think
they have satisfied the nutritional needs of their body. In reality, they
have given their body practically no nourishment. And thus with a full
stomach, they are slowly starving their body's cells." Learn about The
Incredible Healing Powers of Raw (Living) Foods and Juices
Most human illnesses and
diseases are due to a deficiency of vital nutrients. When you supply your
body with the proper nutrients, in a form that your body can use, it knows
how to repair itself. "The body has the inherent ability -the vitality
-not only to heal itself and restore health, but also to ward off disease.
Illness is not caused simply by an invasion of external agents or
germs, but is a manifestation of the organism's attempt to defend and heal
itself. Prevention Is the Best Cure. Health is a reflection of how we choose
to live." TC Fry

Fibromyalgia
and Raw Food Research Study
Donaldson
and his staff conducted an intervention study looking at how
the raw foods diet affected people with fibromyalgia, a nerve and
muscle pain disorder. Over a course of six weeks, 30 people were put on
a program that included two to three glasses of carrot juice, barley greens,
raw fruits and vegetables, flaxseed oil, and some cooked food at dinner
(mostly whole grains). At the end of the trial, two thirds showed remarkable
improvement: two participants overcame their severe depression; one woman
went back to work after being out on disability. "Generally the raw food
diet works because it is a synergy," says Donaldson. "Vitamins, enzymes,
a healthy bowel, balanced emotions, positive outlook -- all of these components
come together in a living way. People overcome arthritis, allergies, cancer,
you name it. I am still amazed by the testimonials that come back to us
from people who have adopted a raw foods diet." Rose Lee Calabro knows
what Donaldson is talking about. Before turning raw she was an HMO nightmare:
she suffered from high cholesterol, high blood pressure, allergies, candida,
chronic fatigue, joint pain, depression, mood
swings, gallstones, hair loss, hearing loss, hypoglycemia, hypothyroidism,
difficulty concentrating, chronic sinusitis, insomnia, gout, and early
signs of cancer in breasts and lungs. Although
her transition to a raw foods diet was gradual (first a vegetarian, then
a cooked food vegan), she truly began to notice changes after going raw.
The
Incredible Healing Powers of Raw (Living) Foods and Juices
The fastest way to restore
wellness is to stop putting into the body the things that have caused the
physical problem to develop in the first place, and then give the body
the nutrients it needs to repair and rebuild itself. The body is self-healing
when the infraction is stopped and proper nutrients provided. more

fibromyalgia with raw food
Shelly - "My nightmare
began at the end of 1996. At 25 I was what society would consider healthy.
I ate what I thought was a well balanced diet and I was fit and very active.
I felt good, had a great boyfriend, now husband, and life was good.. How
drastically everything would change. I started to fall ill. Terribly ill.
It began with a migraine that came one day and never left. Accompanying
the migraine was a pain at the base of my skull and severe muscle tightness,
and pain. My muscles in my neck and shoulders became as hard as rocks and
nothing would relax them. Over the next six years I would bounce from various
types of doctors and specialists in the allopathic medical community (conventional
medicine). No doctor could help me and my list of symptoms kept getting
longer. Added to the debilitating migraines and muscle tightness, fatigue
and pain was.. 50lb weight gain, extreme excitability/nervousness, panic
attacks, shortness of breath, great loss of libido, painful intercourse,
fibrocystic breasts, irregular heart beat, chronic sinus infections and
yeast infections, lowered immune system and more. My body was falling apart.
I felt like a 20-something trapped in the body of an 80 year old.. But
not a healthy 80 year old, a dying 80 year old." Learn

Lena - "My name is
Lena Buhr and I've just turned raw...I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia
and a possible melanoma a while ago, and since so many familymembersof
mine, keep dying and get sick in cancers, arthritis and thyreone, I decided
to do what many people don't think is possible; I became 100% raw. No coffee
or tea, or any cooked food whatsoever, no white bread or sprayed vegetables,
nothing!! I only eat raw vegetables, berries, nuts, sprouted seeds and
a lots of fruit everyday. I didn't believe in this at first and it scared
me a little bit but I thought I had nothing to lose. Today, I am almost
free of my symptoms and becides I feel so much better! I only wish You
would tell Mr. Fox about this... It would help him a great! So many people
around the world who is know free and cured from even severe cancer, with
only months left to live...Please do some research on how food effects
us, especially the kind of diet You eat in America--the Standard American

Green
juice and Herbal Tonics Are My Lifeline
Most people who have explored
the wondrously wide avenues of self-healing have heard about wheatgrass.
Wheatgrass juice has been proven over many years to benefit people in numerous
ways: cleansing the lymph system, building the blood, restoring balance
in the body, removing toxic metals from the cells, nourishing the liver
and kidneys and restoring vitality. One ounce of wheatgrass juice has
the vitamin and mineral equivalent of 2.2 pounds of fresh vegetables. It
contains most of the vitamins and minerals needed for human maintenance,
including the elusive B12. Many of the benefits of wheatgrass juice stem
from the fact that it is a living food, which is a complete protein with
about 30 enzymes and is approximately 70% crude chlorophyll.
To
detoxify
my blood and to maintain my excellent health and vitality I drink daily
6 to 8 ounces of freshly pressed mixture of wheatgrass,
parsley, cilantro, dandelion,
and
bitter-melon-vines juice (in season).
In this green juice, I mix in one tablespoon of
bee pollen,
one ounce of fulvic minerals, one ounce
of marine phytoplankton, one teaspoons of AFA
(a
fresh water nutritional plant that has a rapid effects on the circulation
and immune system) and an ounce of shilajit.
I grow my own wheatgrass in flats by my windows and I use a manual juicer.
Wheatgrass played a major role in my health recovery of severe lifelong
illnesses. I use the
Handcrank juicer (rust proof stainless steel) specifically designed
to get the maximum juice from leafy plants or grass. (most other juicers
shred the grass or leaf causing a huge mess and no juice.) Shirley

F. Batmanghelidj, M.D.
- "Every function inside the body is regulated by and depends on water.
Water must be available to carry vital elements, oxygen, hormones, and
chemical messengers to all parts of the body. Without sufficient water
to wet all parts equally, some more remote parts of the body will not receive
the vital elements that water supplies. Water is also needed to carry toxic
waste away from the cells. In fact, there are at least 50 reasons why the
body needs sufficient water on a regular, everyday basis. Without sufficient
water to constantly wet all parts, your body's drought-management system
kicks into action. The histamine-directed chemical messenger systems are
activated to arrange a new, lower quota of water for the drought-stricken
areas. When histamine and its subordinate "drought managers" come across
pain-sensing nerves, they cause pain. This is what I discovered in my research
that I mentioned earlier." more

Nature's Finest Medicine: The Complete Guide to Using Grass Foods and Juices
to RevitalizeYour Health by Steve Meyerowitz
This is a complete guide
to using grass foods and juices to help your health. Includes everything
you need to know about wheatgrass and its miracle cures: how to grow it,
juice it, and take it, in order to create a total health restoration program.
Also contains information about detoxification, nutrition, research, benefits,
and healing retreats. Includes real life testimonies about the effectiveness
of wheatgrass. Wheatgrass has broad effectiveness, but its three most therapeutic
roles are: blood purification, liver detoxification, and colon cleansing.
As a food it is very nourishing and restorative with such a complete range
nutrients that it can, by itself, sustain life. Wheatgrass earned its reputation
from people with terminal illnesses who took it at the eleventh hour of
their lives, after conventional medicine left them with no hope. But you
can take it as part of a long range prevention and health maintenance program.

Why
elimination of the symptom is NOT the same as elimination of the
disease
Physicians and surgeons
palliate symptoms instead of removing causes.
"Modern medicine feels, in
most cases, that the elimination of the symptom is the same as elimination
of the disease. In allopathic medicine a symptom is usually thought of
as the patient's real disease and the goal is to hold back, decrease or
eliminate this symptom. This is often done without addressing the underlying
cause. If your tooth hurts and we inject a local anesthetic, the pain goes
away but that does not mean the problem is gone! If we use medications
to suppress these symptoms then the vital force tries to create new symptoms
to compensate for the imbalance that is still there. If the vital force
is strong then the original symptom may return. Otherwise, it may be unable
to express on the same level and create a symptom that is more interior
and could be much worse per Herring's Law. One example
is a skin rash that is treated with cortisone. The rash and itching will
probably go away quickly. Later the patient begins to exhibit liver problems
that "were caused by the cortisone". The liver symptoms are actually an
expression of this suppressed imbalance on a deeper more interior level.
Many things can be suppressive. Vaccines and allopathic medications are
a major source of suppression where homeopathy is concerned, but herbs,
acupuncture and incorrect homeopathic remedies can also be suppressive."
Dr.
Bernstein DVM
When there is enough wrong
with people to produce discomfort of mind or body, they seek relief instead
of seeking for and removing cause...Physicians and surgeons palliate symptoms
instead of removing causes. "Whenever possible, suppression of symptoms
is avoided, as this may interfere with the healing process. Tolle Causam
(Identify and Treat the Cause). Illness does not occur without cause and
symptoms (nausea, rash, headache) are not the cause. Symptoms are signals
that the body is out of balance. They are an expression of the body's attempt
to heal itself. Causes originate on many levels, but are more often found
in the patient's lifestyle, diet, habits, or emotional state. When only
the symptoms are treated, the underlying causes remain and the patient
may develop a more serious, chronic condition. Prevention Is the Best Cure.
Health is a reflection of how we choose to live." Dr. Peter A. Martin,
N.D.Naturopathy
Why
"Cures" Sometimes Fail by Dr. Leo Roy, M.D., N.D.
There are obstacles, barriers
and impediments to healing. Failing to consider obstacles to healing is
possibly the most under-considered and neglected aspect to getting well.
Not considering these obstacles sets us up to have potential cures fail,
even those that are the most perfect and effective treatments, those that
are most perfectly programmed to all our healing needs. Healing isn't always
simple, easy, painless or automatic. Problems arise from many factors of
which you are likely not aware. Learn
about The Nature and Types of Obstacles to Healing.
You may feel worse before
you begin to feel better...
Ginger Chalford, Ph.D
-
"The body has an inherent desire for perfect health. We have the ability
to earn our way back to that state, no matter how "normal" or bad our health
is now. But in the meantime, the body must go through an elimination process
to achieve good health. The elimination process is often referred to as
the "healing crisis." Once the healing crisis starts, reactions may be
mild or severe. Expect ups and downs as it takes awhile to get good health
back. In a healing crisis, every body system works together to eliminate
waste products and set the stage for regeneration. Old tissues are replaced
with new."
The
Road To Better Health may begin with a Healing Crisis
As you move toward better
health with natural healing programs and better nutrition, healing begins
to occur. As part of the healing process the body will begin to discard
toxic residues which have built up in your body over the years. The healing
process usually does not occur without repercussions. During the initial
phase of healing, as your body begins to clean house, (detoxify) and your
vital energy begins to repair and rebuild internal organs, you may experience
headache, uneasiness, flu like symptoms and fatigue. It is important that
you adequately rest during this time. These symptoms will pass as your
body begins to normalize to a new level of health. As you continue to improve,
you may begin a process called retracing.
You may feel worse before
you feel better. For example, if you used to get skin rashes, the rashes
may reappear or get worse for a period of time as your body eliminates
toxins through the skin. You may also experience an initial increase in
urination, or you may feel more nervous. In actuality, you are not getting
worse, you are actually getting better. Eventually you will reach a plateau
of better health. During the healing crisis, it is important to not suppress
these temporary symptoms with drugs or the healing process may become interrupted.

Medicine Guide To Chronic Fatigue Fibromyalgia And Environmental Illness
This
Book explains how chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and environmental illness
can be permanently reversed using nontoxic alternative medicine treatments.
Here, 26 leading physicians explain the techniques and natural substances
that have brought complete recovery to their patients.
"My boss bought this book
for me, and I thought it was going to be just another, "yeah, you have
fibromyalgia and it's a real shame, this is how you cope with it", but
instead, this book CHANGED MY LIFE! (Sorry for the run-on sentence). I
had so much pain that some days I couldn't get out of bed. I would find
a position that was minimally pain free and not move until I was better.
It got so bad that I had to use a cane so I could get to work. But I read
the book and I couldn't believe the case histories. But when the pain got
so bad that I thought I would lose my job, I changed my diet (hey, what
did I have to lose? ) and low and behold, within a week the pain was gone
(I stopped taking pain medicine everyday), the "fog" lifted and I felt
better than I had in YEARS! Another side benefit, is that I have lost weight!
But I recommend this book very highly. I will also say that my doctors
have pooh-poohed these results, but I firmly believe that what we eat,
really effects how we feel. I just never knew how much!" Sheila Allen New

Miracle
OF MSM
"In a double-blind study
of MSMs impact ondegenerative arthritis, he found that patients who ingested
2,250mg of MSM a day for six weeks felt an improvement in their pain reduction
by 82%, on average.
Ronald M. Lawrence
MD - "I've been practicing medicine for 50 years, and in all those
years I've never seen a substance like this" Lawrence says in The Journal
of Anti-Aging Medicine a peer-reviewed scientific journal, published Lawrence's
preliminary study results last July. Arthritic cartilage has only one-third
the level of sulfur concentration of normal cartilage - perhaps that is
why MSM has been so effective in treating arthritis. But researchers don't
know for sure if MSM is beneficial for arthritis because of its sulfur
content or because of its antiinflammatory and analgesic properties. Unlike
aspirin, which offers immediate pain relief "MSM takes three to four weeks
before you have noticable changes Lawrence says, "except in rheumatioid
patients - they have felt differences in just one day, and certainly bythree
or four days." According to Jacob, Lawrence and Zucker's forthcoming book,
MSM can be a natural remedy for: osteoarthritis,rheumatoid arthritis,
fibromyalgia,
tendonitis
and bursitis,
muscular soreness and athletic injuries,
carpal tunnel syndrome, post - traumatic inflammation and pain,
heartburn and hyperacidity,
headaches and back
pain, allergies."
MSM,
a natural form of organic sulphur found in all living organisms, is
present in body fluids and tissues. It is part of the amino acid chain.
Without the presence of the proper amount of MSM in the body, the amino
acids will continue to build the glands but fail to produce the correct
enzymes, so animals and people are then prone to unnecessary illnesses.
MSM is an important dietary supplement for people and animals.
MSM (Methyl-Sulfonyl-Methane)
is a pure, organic, non-toxic, non-metallic element that occurs widely
in nature. MSM has been shown to be completely non-toxic in study after
study, even in high dosages. Storehouses of MSM, in mammals, decreases
with age, which may be caused by changing diet or body metabolism. This
should not be allowed to occur. Your body uses MSM to continually create
new healthy cells to replace old ones. If your body is not receiving the
proper nutrition including MSM, the body may produce weak dysfunctional
cells.
MSM detoxifies the body and
increases blood circulation. It is also a free radical scavenger, prevents
overreaction to other medicines, controls acidity, coats the intestinal
tract so parasites lose the ability to hang on, helps to utilize vitamins
and minerals, thereby providing the means to derive the maximum benefit
from what we and our animals eat. learn

Toxemia
and Internal Cleansing (Fasting)
"Autogenous self-generated
poisoning is what we call Toxaemia."
Natural Hygiene holds that
the one cause of all disease is the toxic saturation at the cellular level
of the bodily tissues, bloodstream, and fluids brought on by the depletion
of Nerve Energy reserves through wrong living habits. This state of self-poisioning
is alternately termed "Auto-Intoxication," "Toxicosis," and "Toxemia."
There is really only one disease of the body. It is called Toxemia. Many
doctors of natural hygiene have proven this in their work, but common knowledge
of the way the body works, along with common sense, will also support this
statement. In his book "Toxemia Explained" Dr. John Tilden explains the
definition of Toxemia as natures effort to eliminate toxins from the blood.
Evart Loomis M.D. -"Fasting
is the world's most ancient and natural healing mechanism. Fasting triggers
a truly wondrous cleansing process that reaches right down to each and
every cell and tissue in the body. Within 24 hours of curtailing food intake,
enzymes stop entering the stomach and travel instead into the intestines
and into the bloodstream, where they circulate and gobble up all sorts
of waste matter, including dead and damaged cells, unwelcome microbes,
metabolic wastes, and pollutants. All organs and glands get a much-needed
and well-deserved rest, during which their tissues are purified and rejuvenated
and their functions balanced and regulated. The entire alimentary canal
is swept clean. By rebuilding immunity, health is naturally restored
and disease disappears. If health and immunity are thereafter conscientiously
maintained, the individual is no longer vulnerable to disease and dieting
become unnecessary. Surely one of the most overlooked and yet most valuable
modes of healing that will be rediscovered in the future of the new medicine
is the fast. This is because of the increasing interest in looking to oneself
for healing powers. For the fast is an inward process and cannot be entered
upon only from an outer approach with any expectation of a lasting benefit.
The person must invariably be involved with the overall results. This therapeutic
encounter is in direct contrast to the usual non-involvement in the physician-directed,
disease-oriented medical practice of today." more
