"For
many of us it comes as as surprise to learn that bacteria are highly intelligent
and adaptable. We have been taught from birth that they are pretty dumb
and that, through the use of antibiotics, we are winning a war against
them, a war that will end all disease. In fact the opposite
is true. Bacteria show behavior that indicate intelligence and they
are acting together throughout the world to counter the antibiotics we
have invented to kill them off. Bacteria, it turns out, are inextricably
intertwined with the formation of the human species and the health of the
Earth. One to two pounds of our body weight are bacteria and over eons
we have developed a crucial and important symbiosis with them. Antibiotic

(also antiseptics, antivirals, antipyretics, anti-inflammatories,
and antifungals)
Alexander Fleming, the scientist who discovered penicillin, cautioned
against the overuse of antibiotics. Unless the scientific community and
the general public heed his warning, Harvard professor Walter Gilbert,
a Nobel prizewinner in chemistry, asserted, "There may be a time down the
road when 80% to 90% of infections will be resistant to all known antibiotics."
The scientific community and the general public have ignored the insights
of the late Pasteur and have ignored the importance of host resistance
in preventing illness.
The
Germ Survival Guide recommends Transfer Factor
. This new book written by Kenneth A. Bock, M.D., Steven J. Bock, M.D.
is designed to give families and individuals preventative strategies to
use to protect against germs and environmental threats. Transfer factors are extolled in the book as an effective way
to optimize immune system function so that personal immunity is at its
best in the face of a variety of health threats. In a clinical study,
pediatrician, David M. Markowitz, M.D. reports an 84% reduction in antibiotic
use when children used Transfer Factor.
About one-fourth of all the medicines we use come from rainforest plants.
Curare, from a tropical vine, is used as an anesthetic and to relax muscles
for surgery. Quinine, from the cinchona tree, is used to treat malaria.
The rosy periwinkle contains an anti-leukemia drug; a person with lymphocytic
leukemia has a 99% chance that the disease will go into remission because
of the rosy periwinkle. more than 1,400 varieties of tropical plants are
thought to be potential cures for cancer. Medicinal

he difference between an antibiotic drug and an antibiotic herb is that
the drug is an isolated constituent limited to the power of that one chemical,
whereas the herb contains several constituents with a variety of healing
properties, producing a synergistic effect. The herb can actually kill
only the bad bacteria while not harming the good; the drug does not have
the wisdom to differentiate. Furthermore, most bacteria are not fooled
by an isolated compound; often the drug becomes ineffective or the cells
mutate eventually to become resistant to the drug. The organic herb is
nature’s match for the bacteria.

Antibiotics Two out of three infants receive antibiotics before they
turn one year old. By the age of two, three out of four children have received
the drugs, according to recent research. These findings are especially
concerning as resistance to common antibiotics is becoming an ever increasing
problem. Deaths caused by Staphylococcus aureus, the so-called superbug
that is resistant to most antibiotics, are reportedly increasing. Moreover,
research from a new study has shown that children from low-economic backgrounds
are more likely to receive antibiotics than those from more well off families,
and boys tend to receive antibiotics earlier than girls. Low-economic background
might be a factor because people from this group tend to have higher rates
of respiratory illness due to smoking and a lower likelihood of breast-feeding.
Homeopathy.
Homeopathic medicine developed much of its popularity in the United
States and Europe because of its success in treating people with cholera,
scarlet fever, yellow fever and other infectious diseases that were ravaging
populations. After 200 years, homeopathy is re-emerging as a major
healing approach during this era of a degenerative disease epidemic and
the resurgence of infectious disease epidemics in the form of mutated ‘supergerms’
A little known fact of history is that homeopathic medicine developed
its popularity in the United States as well as in Europe because of its
successes in treating the infectious epidemics that raged during the 19th
century. Dr. Thomas L. Bradford's The Logic of Figures, published in 1900,
compares in detail the death rate in homeopathic versus allopathic (conventional)
medical hospitals and shows that death rates per 100 patients in homeopathic
hospitals were often one-half or even one-eighth that of conventional medical
hospitals.
In 1849 the homeopaths of Cincinnati claimed that in over a thousand
cases of cholera only 3% of the patients died. To substantiate their results
they even printed the names and addresses of patients who died or who survived
in a newspaper. (28) The death rate of patients with cholera who used conventional
medicines generally ranged from 40 to 70%.
The success of treating yellow fever with homeopathy was so impressive
that a report from the United States Government's Board of Experts included
several homeopathic medicines, despite the fact that the Board of Experts
was primarily composed of conventional physicians who despised homeopathy.
The success of homeopathy in treating modern-day infections is comparable
to its successes in treating the infectious diseases of the last century.
It is common knowledge that homeopathic practitioners rarely resort to
using antibiotics or other drugs commonly given for infectious conditions.
Homeopaths, like any good medical professional, will use antibiotics when
clearly necessary, but it is worthwhile having alternatives that work.

Herbal
Antibiotics : Natural Alternatives for Treating Drug-Resistant Bacteria
By creating antibiotics we have introduced non-biodegradable antibacterial
substances into the ecosystem at the rate (now) of 40 million pounds a
year. To survive, for our species to survive, bacteria had to evolve and
they have at a rate never before seen on Earth. In this process they have
become more intractable and virulent than ever before. But more than this,
bacteria previously benign have been learning how to become virulent. We
have upset the bacterial balance of nature to a frightening degree. Over
the next decade our antibacterial arsenal will begin to fail at an ever
increasing rate. Epidemiologists now warn of epidemic diseases that are
not treatable by modern means. But it turns out that herbal medicines,
those most ancient of human helpers, are effective against antibiotic resistant
bacteria for they are much more complex than antibiotics and bacteria cannot
develop resistance to them. In this book I explore the ecological basis
of bacterial resistance, some of what we can do to prevent it, and the
top fifteen herbs to use as antibiotic substitutes for treating the most
intractable resistant diseases. By learing to understand bacteria as a
crucial life form on Earth and how to live in balance with them instead
of destroy them, ecological healing - a healing that takes into account
our place in the circle of life - can begin." Stephen

Healing with Holy
Thistle (Blessed Thistle) and Other Herbs
The use of blessed thistle commonly known as holy thistle (Carbenia
benedicta) has been recorded as far back as the early sixteenth century
for treating smallpox, fever, anorexia, dyspepsia, indigestion, constipation,
and flatulence. Monks often grew Blessed Thistle as a cure for small
pox. Historically, blessed thistle tea has been drunk for digestive problems,
liver and gall bladder problems, headache prevention, respiratory ailments,
memory improvement and external problems such as sores, boils and itchy
skin. The plant gained the title "blessed" for its use in treating plague.
Blessed thistle is also used as a strong but gentle liver tonic herb, promoting
metabolic activities in the liver cells and toxin elimination. Especially
noted as a tonic herb for women. Some individuals employ this herbs, as
they would its cousin milk thistle, as a remedy for gallbladder and liver
disorders. more
Probiotics
Probiotics are the beneficial bacteria that are normally present in
the digestive tract. These bacteria are required for proper digestion,
the synthesis of Vitamin K, and the prevention of yeast infections and
pathogen growth. Studies have shown that the continual use of antibiotics
has a devastating affect on the immune system. Each time you use
an antibiotic, the immune system gets further and further suppressed. Antibiotic
kill friendly helpful microflora bacteria in a body, not just the pathogenic
bacteria. A healthy intestinal tract with a balanced microflora can boost
the immune system, keep pathogenic diseases of the intestinal tract in
check. Probiotic use creates an intestinal environment that can improve
a user's immune system. The intestines are the body's largest immune organ.
It's a fairly hostile environment and a well balanced system can relieve
immunological stress associated with an unhealthful system. This gives
the immune system a chance to enhance its capabilities in other parts of
the body.

Infection Clearing
up with Marine Phytoplankton
My Father-in-law developed an eye infection due to cataract surgery.
He was under a specialist's care for over two months. He would go to see
him every day for a while and then every few days and he was using FOUR
types of drops in the infected eye every hour. Then the doctor mentioned
he might have to do surgery to "hopefully" correct the problem. We started
Dad on Marine Phytoplankton three times a day on a Tuesday and the doctor
saw improvement the following Thursday. Then the following Tuesday, the
doctor was very impressed with his progress plus my father-in-law said
he could see better out of that eye than he had in over two months. The
following Thursday, the infection had completely CLEARED up. The doctor
was so impressed, he told him to keep taking the "vitamins". He sent Dad
back to his original doctor and he released him because the eye problem
was completely healed.
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. more about marine

Echinacea and Golden Seal Powerful
Infection Fighters
Echinacea
Used
as a blood cleanser and especially for skin disorders, such as boils and
abcesses considered a valuable alternative to antiobiotics; This
herb has very strong immune-activating abilities as it activates the
white blood cells to fight off both bacterial and viral infections Modern
scientific studies now validate Echinacea's traditional usage as a topical
agent to help the body repair skin wounds, and internally to enhance the
immune system. The active constituents in Echinacea which are thought to
bolster the body's defense are known as polysaccharides. Polysaccharides
stimulate the activity of macrophages, white blood cells which destroy
bacteria, viruses, other foreign invaders, and even wayward cells. It also
activates the body's production of interferon, a specific protein which
protects cells against the invasion of viruses.
Golden Seal is a very important traditional herb. Golden Seal was listed
from 1860 to 1926 in the U.S. Pharmacopoeia. It was primarily used for
inflammations of the mucous membranes. Native Americans used Goldenseal
both internally and externally and also derived a dye from the root.

Magnesium Chloride:
The Infection Fighter
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. However,
it may come as a surprise that in the form of magnesium
chloride it is also an impressive infection
fighter. The first prominent researcher to investigate and promote
the antibiotic effects of magnesium was a French surgeon, Prof. Pierre
Delbet MD. In 1915 he was looking for a solution to cleanse wounds of soldiers,
because he found that traditionally used antiseptics actually damaged tissues
and encouraged infections instead of preventing them. In all his tests
magnesium chloride solution was by far the best. Not only was it harmless
for tissues, but it also greatly increased leucocyte activity and phagocytosis,
the destruction of microbes.

Propolis- The Most Natural Antibiotic The bactericidal qualities of
this medicine have been known since the beginning of written history. Propolis

Bee
Propolis : Natural Healing from the Hive by James Fearnley
Propolis, which bees process from the plant and tree resin they gather
and use to protect the health of their hives, has also been shown to have
powerful antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects in humans. It has
been proven effective in treating skin conditions, wounds, burns, and in
the treatment of respiratory problems such as asthma and bronchitis. This
guide explains how to use propolis as a part of an everyday health routine
to boost the immune system and as a possible substitute for antibiotics.
Also included is a list of propolis products that are on the market and
instructions for consumers to make their own propolis remedies.

Bee Propolis is collected from domestic and overseas beekeepers and
is one of the richest sources of bioflavonoids known. Bees collect the
propolis from the resin of certain select trees and use it to line the
hive. Bee Propolis s a waxy substance collected by honey bees which contains
phytotonizides. Phytotonizides are believed to contain immunity factors,
which when used internally, stimulates the body and gives it a natural
resistance to diseases (a natural antibiotic).
Bee Pollen's Medical Miracles
Researchers have demonstrated that there is a substance in bee pollen
that inhibits the development of numerous harmful bacteria. Experiments
have shown bee pollen contains an antibiotic factor effective against
salmonella and some strains of bacteria. On the clinical level, studies
have shown that a regulatory effect on intestinal function can be attributed
to bee pollen. The presence of a high proportion of cellulose and fiber
in pollen, as well as the existence of antibiotic factors, all contribute
to an explanation for this efficacious effect. "Bee pollen contains all
the essential components of life. The percentage of rejuvenating elements
in bee pollen remarkably exceeds those present in brewer's yeast and wheat
germ. Bee pollen corrects the deficient or unbalanced nutrition, common
in the customs of our present-day civilization of consuming incomplete
foods, often with added chemical ingredients, which expose us to physiological
problems as various as they are numerous."Dr. Joseph

Silver is absolutely non-toxic. Silver in its colloidal
state is highly germicidal and has the opposite magnetic charge to disease;
it usually starts cleaning the bloodstream after 15 minutes of ingestion.
Colloidal Silver functions to kill disease organisms as well as stimulate
the regrowth and repair of injured tissue. It may be used both internally
and externally, for humans and animals. Externally, this
water may be applied directly to cuts, rashes, burns, and moles. Internally,
it may be used for viral infections, throat and respiratory infections,
diabetes, Candida yeast infections, menstrual difficulties, parasites,
diarrhea, allergies, colon spasms, and low energy. Colloidal Silver may
be used as eye drops for retinitis (a disease of the eyes).

Antibiotics: 50 (or so) ways to Boost Immunity and Avoid Antibiotics
Dr. Michael A. Schmidt,
Dr. Lendon H. Smith, and Dr. Keith W. Sehnert
Officials
from the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control
have reported that the overuse of antibiotics in medicine has created an
epidemic of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Doctors fear that if antibiotic
use is not curtailed, we may soon approach the day when untreatable infections
are rampant. In Beyond Antibiotics, Drs. Schmidt, Smith, and Sehnert explore
the problems presented by the overuse of these drugs. More importantly,
they show how to build immunity, improve resistance to infections, and
avoid antibiotics when possible.
Natural
Alternatives to Antibiotics John McKenna Offers natural approaches
to the treatment of bacterial infections. Provides therapeutic options
for the treatment and prevention of infections using herbal, homeopathic,
and nutritional remedies. Includes a chapter on childhood infections.
"Are Antibiotics still effective? The period once euphemistically called
the Age of the Miracle Drug is now dead. And the indiscriminate use of
antibiotics is leading us to one of the most frightening eras in recent
memory. That is, the return of infectious diseases for which there is no
effective treatment. Two decades following the introduction of antibiotics,
the medical community began to see a disturbing trend. Bacterial infections
that were once treatable no longer responded to antibiotics. Penicillin
is effective today against only 10 percent of the strains of Staphylococcus
aureus that it used to eradicate easily. Those that did respond often required
five to ten times the dose of the drug that previously was effective. One
example of this is the resistant strains of gonorrhea that developed as
a result of the antibiotics that were used to treat it." Michael

Slippery
Elm Inner Bark Powder
According to the herbal materia medica, Slippery Elm has a most soothing
and healing action on all the parts it comes in contact with. Taken unsweetened,
three times a day, Elm Food gives excellent results in gastritis,
gastric catarrh, indigestion, mucous colitis and enteritis,
diarrhea,
being tolerated by the stomach when all other foods fail, and is of
great value in bronchitis, bleeding from the lungs and consumption (being
most healing to the lungs), soothing a cough and building up and preventing
wasting.
Slippery Elm Food is generally made by mixing a teaspoonful of the powder
into a thin and perfectly smooth paste with cold water and then pouring
on a pint of boiling water, steadily stirring meanwhile. It can, if desired,
be flavoured with cinnamon, nutmeg or lemon rind. This makes an excellent
drink in cases of irritation of the mucous membrane of the stomach and
intestines, and taken at night will induce sleep. In times of famine, early
American settlers used slippery elm as a survival food. A strengthening,
soothing demulcent herb, slippery elm is ideal for sore, inflamed, ulcerated
mucous membranes and wasting disease. Slippery elm can be used by weak
or debilitated people as a mild food to help build up the body. It is especially
helpful when no other food can be kept down. It is a highly nutritive,
tonic herbal food and is further helpful for conditions of tissue deficiency.

Leaf Extract: The Total Antimicrobial (article)
The first formal medical mention of the olive leaf - an account describing
its ability to cure severe cases of fever and malaria -- ocurred about
150 years ago. In 1854, the Pharmaceutical Journal carried a report by
one Daniel Hanbury and contained the following simple healing recipe: Boil
a handful of leaves in a quart of water down to half its original volume.
Then administer the liquid in the amount of a wineglass every 3 or 4 hours
until the fever is cured. The author said he discovered the effective tincture
in 1843 and had used it successfully. This method became well known in
England for treating sick Britons returning from His or Her Majesty's tropical
colonies. The author believed that a bitter substance in the leaves was
the key healing ingredient. more

Power of Grapefruit Seed
There are many herbs and essential oils that kill enterococcus, staphylococcus
and other bacteria as well as viruses, which antibiotics are unable to
treat. One of the most popular is grapefruit seed extract, or GSE, made
from the seeds and connecting tissue of citrus fruit. Grapefruit seed extract(GSE)
is being used to kill bacteria like Strep, Staph, Salmonella, E. Coli,
and also to fight Candida, Herpes, Influenza, parasites, fungi and traveler's
diarrhea. This has been proven in laboratories all over the world, and
is supported by feedback from doctors, veterinarians, farmers and consumers.

SEED EXTRACT FOR ANIMAL CARE
Excerpt from Pat McKay's website
"Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE) is a broad spectrum, non-toxic, antimicrobial
product derived from the seeds, pulp and white membranes of grapefruit.
In hundreds of laboratory tests, GSE has demonstrated its ability to kill
or inhibit the growth of a wide array of potentially harmful bacteria,
fungi, viruses and protozoan parasites.
The American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association now boasts over
500 members as an ever increasing number of veterinarians incorporate holistic
health concepts into their practices. Many of these physicians have experienced
the same excellent results with GSE as reported in human health care. Consider
the words of Stephen Blake, DVM of San Diego, California. “I have found
it (GSE) effective in the treatment of Giardia, ear infections and superficial
pyoderma (skin infections). I have also used GSE to purify meat so that
I can feed my patients raw meat and not worry about food poisoning. I have
used GSE for canker sores, gum infections and tonsilitis in animals, as
a vaginal douche for breeding horses to prevent infection and to prevent
foot rot in horses.”
Philadelphia veterinarian, Dr Deva Kaur Khalsa, has used GSE extensively
in her holistic practice. Because ear infections in cats, when caused by
fungus, can prove highly resistant to treatment, Dr Khalsa was particularly
interested in GSE’s antifungal properties. She says, “GSE has proven itself
to be extremely dependable and effective while adhering to the criteria
of a natural, non-toxic modality.
Now that many professional have found GSE beneficial to cats, dogs,
birds and farm animals, we are hearing reptile and amphibian enthusiasts
asking how GSE might be of use to the furless, featherless crowd. It has
long been known that pet turtles harbor salmonella, a bacteria that not
only threatens the animal, but humans as well. Since GSE is effective against
salmonella in a laboratory setting, GSE as a treatment for reptiles is
an exciting possibility for those concerned
with our shell-toting friends."

Quality,
Potent Herbal Formulas
Unlike most nutritional supplements on the market
today, the botanicals in Amazon Herb formulas have not been altered or
fractioned. They have not been extracted from their original composition.
These herbs are never fumigated,
irradiated, genetically engineered or exposed to pesticides and industrial
poisons. The integrity and life force of these plant is maintained. They
are living foods that work, just as nature intended! The spagyric
processing of the Amazon
herbs is based on ancient bio-energetic principles and is the most
perfect method available to deliver a full body treatment. John Easterling
had a vision of bringing nutritional vitality to the world and at the same
time helping preserve one of our greatest treasures, the Amazon Rainforest.
He searched for the perfect vehicle to do so and he found it in a 15th
century spagyric processing method that was designed to deliver the energetics
(life force) of the plants. He studied the process, sometimes referred
to as plant alchemy, and it was in alignment with what he wanted to provide.
It was the only known method that could bring forward the essential oil,
water soluble and mineral components (alkaline ash). The result is that
it retains the plants original constitution with more concentrated healing
potential than raw plants can provide. more

Sea
plants -- gifts from the sea!
Seaweed contains over 60 minerals and elements, 21 amino acids, simple
and complex carbohydrates and several essential plant growth hormones.
Being rich in amino acids, vitamins, minerals and trace elements is one
of the key reasons why kelp is known as a great promoter of glandular health,
especially for the pituitary, adrenal and thyroid glands. Kelp also supplies
a natural source of iodine, which acts as an antibiotic to kill germs.
Since the thyroid and pituitary glands regulate certain functions of digestion,
kelp is beneficial in balancing out the total system. Nature has offered
us this marvelous "herb of the sea" in a complete and balanced form. Kelp/seaweed
aids in the healing process by offering the vitamins and minerals necessary
for tissue repair and promotes better utilization and absorption of nutrients
from foods ingested.

Water The Great Healer
and Detoxifier!
Water therapy has been used for centuries to heal the sick.
Hydro- and hydrothermal therapy are traditional methods of treatment that
have been used for the treatment of disease and injury by many cultures,
including those of ancient Rome, China, and Japan. Water therapy has been
around for centuries. The ancient Greeks took therapeutic baths. Water
is an important ingredient in the traditional Chinese and Native American
healing systems.

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."
Benefits of Alkaline, Ionized
Water, by Dr. Hidemitsu Hayashi, M.D.
Water has the ability to attract and accumulate bio-energy. It also
stores an energy memory of harmful or helpful vibrations to which it was
exposed in the past. Chlorinated tap water is polluted with non-biological
chemicals and negative energy imprints. It is also devoid of bio-energy
and so may be regarded as being badly polluted as well as 'dead'. Alkaline
living water is regarded by a growing number of health care professionals
as the best water to drink and is listed as a medical device in Japan for
the treatment of degenerative diseases.
Joseph
M. Price, MD - "Chlorine
is the greatest crippler and killer of modern times. It is an insidious
poison."
Albert
Schatz, Ph.D - "Fluoridation
is the greatest fraud that has ever been perpetrated and it has been perpetrated
on more people than any other fraud has." Professor
Albert Schatz, Ph.D. (Microbiology), Discoverer of streptomycin and Nobel
Prize Winner
Matthew Silver, MD
- "An associate in her early fifties who had suffered for many years from
the toxic effects of chlorine poisoning from inhaling vapors from
an over-chlorinated swimming pool. This had resulted in many severe
health challenges including extreme chronic fatigue and breathing difficulty
that kept her housebound and dependent on oxyn. Even minimal exertion led
to extreme shortness of breath. After just three days of drinking glyconutrients,
she reported that all of her symptoms improved dramatically and that she
was able to leave her house without oxygen and work in her garden, which
she had not been able to do in years." The sugars found on all Glyconutrients
(saccharides) also address the workings of the brain and nervous system
– from memory and sleep to anxiety and depression.
Safe,
toxin-free, Ionized,
Energized, Drinking Water helps to naturally flush toxins and acidic
waste from the body and is a powerful antioxidant. Ionized Water makes
more oxygen available to our cells than distilled, reverse osmosis, filtered
only, bottled or tap water and is the best possible drinking water. "Disease
and early death is more likely to be seen with the long term drinking of
purified water. Avoid it except in special circumstances." Zoltan P.
Rona M.D
Chemicals and Toxins
Are The Primary Cause of Illness, Disease and Obesity
Substances that are toxic to our bodies come at us from all
directions: the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink, the
cleaning products we use, and the metabolic waste produced inside us. Toxins
build-up in the body contribute to premature aging and chronic and degenerative
diseases. Dr. Steve Nugent, the past president of the American Naturopathic
Medical Association, reported recently that "in the typical American home
there are more toxins inside the home than outside the home! Your cells
actually contain over 400 new toxins that didn't even exist 45 years ago
and we are losing the battle against toxins!" It's a fact. There are increasing
amounts of toxins and chemical agents in the water we drink, the food we
eat and the air we breathe - they all contribute to the breakdown in cellular
communication and disease. more
Rebuilding the Immune System: The
body's defense department
Your immune system is your bodyguard. It works both pro-actively and
protectively to shield you from anything in your world that threatens your
life and limb. The immune system is not responsive to drugs for healing.
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. According t o Dr. George C Pack, MD,
a cancer specialist at Cornell medical School, almost everyone has cancer
cells present at times in our bodies. If our immune system is working properly,
these cells are killed or reabsorbed by our defense system before they
begin to grow and threaten our health. The only real defense against cancer
is the immune system. Everyone gets cancer every day but if the immune
system is where it should be those cancer cells are eliminated and we never
know it. more

Clay - Healing Earth
Clay is renowned to have many uses in promoting health in plants, animals
and humans. Bentonite, Pascalite, as well as other types of healing clays,
have been used by indigenous cultures since before recorded history.
The Native Americans call it "Ee-Wah-Kee" meaning "The-Mud-That-Heals"
Bentonite, as well as other types of healing clay, has been used by indigenous
cultures since before recorded history. "The Amargosians (predecessors
to the Aztecs ), the Aborigines, and natives of Mexico and South America
all recognized the benefit of clays. " "...healing mud not only draws toxic
material out of the body if taken internally, but also reduces pain and
infection in open wounds on both humans and animals."
Profound 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
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. For three billion years
Marine Phytoplankton has supported virtually all living creatures in the
Ocean. It contains a unique combination of life sustaining nutrients
including; Omega 3 essential fatty acids (EPA and DHA), protein, chlorophyll,
vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Overdependence on land-based food
sources often lead to deficiencies in micronutrients and trace elements.
Marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum health by boosting
and supporting all systems within the body. When the body is missing critical
components, it is unable to maintain the balance of these systems, and
malfunctions (disease) result. Scientific research indicates that
Marine Phytoplankton may be the most important food on Planet Earth. It
is nature's gift to assist us on our journey to optimal health and wellness
through balanced nutrition. "The future of Nutrition is found in
the ocean" - Jacques Cousteau more
Healing with Holy
Thistle (Blessed Thistle) and Other Herbs
The
use of blessed thistle commonly known as holy thistle (Carbenia benedicta)
has been recorded as far back as the early sixteenth century for treating
smallpox, fever, anorexia, dyspepsia, indigestion, constipation, and flatulence.
Monks often grew Blessed Thistle as a cure for small pox. Historically,
blessed thistle tea has been drunk for digestive problems, liver and gall
bladder problems, headache prevention, respiratory ailments, memory improvement
and external problems such as sores, boils and itchy skin. The plant gained
the title "blessed" for its use in treating plague. Blessed thistle is
also used as a strong but gentle liver tonic herb, promoting metabolic
activities in the liver cells and toxin elimination. Especially noted as
a tonic herb for women. Some individuals employ this herbs, as they would
its cousin milk thistle, as a remedy for gallbladder and liver disorders.

Glyconutrients
/ Glyconutritionals / Saccharides - It's Role in People and Animals' Health
and Wellness
Glyconutrients are not vitamins, minerals, herbals, homeopathics or
enzymes. They are a class all to themselves. They are supplements derived
from nature that have been formulated based on a new understanding in biochemistry
of how our bodies maintain health at the cellular level. This new discovery
is as significant as the discovery of the role of vitamins, essential fatty
acids, and amino acids in how the body functions. Glyconutritionals
are the foods and nutritional supplements that provide saccharides along
with other glycoforms (lipids and proteins) essential to the body, but
which are scarce in most diets. Over 20,000 studies have been conducted
on individual glyconutrients, and virtually all of them have positive outcomes
and show great promise as healers of the future. Based on the knowledge
that the body can heal itself through cell to cell communication if given
the proper nutrients, glyconutrients are seen by many scientists and doctors
as the missing link to optimal health.
Healing with Food: 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.
Healing through Fasting: Fasting is the world's
most ancient and natural healing mechanism.
Healing with Water: Hydrotherapy has been used
for centuries to heal the sick
Healing with the Sea: There is no family of foods
more protective against radiation and environmental pollutants than sea
vegetables.
Healing with Sunlight: Sunlight helps the body
heal wounds and injuries and overcome virtually any illness.
Healing with Earth: Clay is renowned to have many
uses in promoting health in plants, animals and humans.
Healing with Plants: Plants have the power to supply
the bodies’ life force with the energies it needs to restore and maintain
health.
Healing with Urine: One of the most powerful, most
researched and most medically proven natural cures ever discovered.
Healing from the Hives: Bee pollen rejuvenates your
body, stimulates organs and glands, enhances vitality, and brings about
a longer life span.
Basic Healing Principles: The body has an innate
capacity to heal itself. Self-healing can only occur once the cause

the illness has been eliminated. Why elimination of the symptom is NOT
the same as elimination of the disease? Physicians and surgeons

 What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! 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.

a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes rates rose significantly
in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B vaccine campaign in young
children, and that diabetes rates also went up sharply in Finland after
three new childhood vaccines were introduced." Nicholas

In fall 1997, two influential
professional magazines featured articles asking the question: Has the decrease
of infectious diseases in childhood through the mass use of vaccines been
replaced with an increase in chronic diseases such as diabetes and asthma?
The Economist, a prestigious international magazine read by world leaders
in government, business and public policy, and Science News, a magazine
read by both health care professionals and the general public, explored
the reported links between vaccines and chronic diseases in their November
22, 1997 issues.

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. These nutrients improve mental
function, and memory. They reduce depression, harmful effects of stress,
and mood swings. Profound Life-Giving Properties
of Marine Phytoplankton
The
acid-alkaline balance of the body has an enormous impact on a person’s
health. When the pH of the body gets out of balance (too acidic), we
may experience low energy, fatigue, excess weight, poor digestion, aches
and pains, and even more serious disorders. When the body is excessively
acidic, vital organs and individual cells are subject to damage or destruction.
This condition, known as acidosis, can be a cause, an effect, or even a
symptom of almost any health condition. By balancing the body's acidity
levels, this simple plan can help toward curing various medical conditions,
including arthritis, hepatitis, insomnia, alcoholism, and kidney disease.
The
Native Americans call it "Ee-Wah-Kee" meaning "The-Mud-That-Heals".
In addition to the role it plays as a potent detoxifier, therapeutic
clay has also been used extensively in the treatment of pain, open
wounds, colitis, diarrhea, hemorrhoids, stomach ulcers, intestinal problems,
acne, anemia, and a variety of other health issues. more

the Internet is up for grabs. Large and powerful corporations are lobbying

newest forum. "The genius of the Internet was that it made the First Amendment
a living document again for millions of Americans," says Robert McChesney,
a media scholar and activist and co-author of OUR
MEDIA, NOT THEIRS. "The decisions that we're going be making ... are
probably going to set our entire communication system, and, really, our
entire society, on a course that it won't be able to change for generations."

our only hope and defense, must lie within our own immune system." more
