According to Schreiber (in his book Anti-Cancer), turmeric isn’t absorbed in our bodies unless we cook it in a bit of olive oil (organic and virgin, ideally) and add a dash of black pepper.

The potent anti-cancer component of turmeric is curcumin, however.

And while there are many curcumin capsules out there on the market, only Life Extension (as far as I know) makes one already combined with black paper (bioperine). It’s called “SuperCurcumin” and comes only in 800 mg capsules, so two a day with meals would me an acceptable minImal dosage. (I wish they would make it in 500 mg capsules, as other companies do.)

However, in his book Natural Strategies for Cancer Patients, Dr. Russell Blaylock advises, if we want to MAXIMIZE absorption, to take ANY curcumin capsule in a tablespoon of olive oil. I’ve tried this with Supercurcumin (opened the capsule, added it to a tablespoon of olive oil and gulped it down) but have to warn you that it’s a little acidic tasting (who cares, if it could be saving our lives, right?) and that you need to wash your hands afterwards; curcumin will stain everything a bright orange. (Note that in nature, it’s so often foods that are bright orange that are the healthiest.)

According to recent research, if Americans cut back on the amount of time spent sitting down, it could add years to their life expectancy.

Unfortunately, most people spend a large portion of each day in a seated position. It’s hard to avoid these days, as computer work predominates, and most also spend many precious hours each week commuting to and from work.

As few as one diet soda daily may increase the risk for leukemia in men and women, and for multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma in men, according to new results from the longest-ever running study on aspartame as a carcinogen in humans. Importantly, this is the most comprehensive, long-term study ever completed on this topic, so it holds more weight than other past studies which appeared to show no risk. And disturbingly, it may also open the door for further similar findings on other cancers in future studies.

The most thorough study yet on aspartame – Over two million person-years

For this study, researchers prospectively analyzed data from the Nurses’ Health Study and the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study for a 22-year period. A total of 77,218 women and 47,810 men were included in the analysis, for a total of 2,278,396 person-years of data. Apart from sheer size, what makes this study superior to other past studies is the thoroughness with which aspartame intake was assessed. Every two years, participants were given a detailed dietary questionnaire, and their diets were reassessed every four years. Previous studies which found no link to cancer only ever assessed participants’ aspartame intake at one point in time, which could be a major weakness affecting their accuracy.

If you answered no, guess again!

Every night you go to sleep you engage in the most natural form of meditation your body can experience, says Qigong master and healer Chunyi Lin, creator of Spring Forest Qigong.

“Sleeping is a natural form of meditation and a form of Qigong,” he says, “It’s the perfect way to balance yin and yang energy in the body.”

Traditional Chinese Medicine says too much yang energy or too much yin energy can cause blockages in the body’s energy channels and lead to health problems.

“But ‘Qi sleeping’ helps to balance your energy. During sleep, the energies of the heart, mind, body, and spirit unite,” Chunyi says. “It’s so wonderful because you are practicing Qigong while you sleep!”

To help you sleep like a baby—and fine-tune your energy while you do it—consider these tips from Chunyi:

• Exercise daily to detoxify acidic energy in the body. Walking, slow running, weight lifting, Qigong, yoga, or tai chi can all help you go deeper into sleep so the body can balance more quickly.

• Eat a light meal in the evening, and stop eating two hours before bed.

• Consider eating a small baked potato as part of your evening meal. This calms the energy of the brain and pancreas, helps balance hormone energy, and helps the body relax.

• Don’t drink any tea, coffee, or alcohol at least two hours before bed.

• Avoid watching violent movies or TV shows before sleep. “As you sleep, those images are still processing in your brain, in every cell in your body,” Chunyi says, “It can prevent you from having a peaceful sleep.”

• Before bed, take a hot bath filled with a handful of sea salt, or soak your feet in a basin of hot water with three tablespoons of sea salt.

• Go to sleep and wake up the same time every day to allow your body to align with its natural body clock.

• Sleep on your right or left side or on your back. This helps balance the Qi better.

• When sleeping on your side bend your knees, Chunyi say. “Sleep like a shrimp, or like a baby in the womb.”

• Avoid sleeping on your stomach, which can cause your neck to twist and energy blockages to develop gradually in your body.

• Put a smile on your face as you close your eyes. Smiling causes your brain to send out endorphins that help you feel good.

• Visualize you are sleeping in the cradle of the moon.

• Relax your body from head to toe, breathing slowly, deeply, and gently.

• Focus your attention on your lower dantian, the energy center deep behind the navel. Imagine bright, loving energy there. Send unconditional love energy to your lungs and to any part of your body where you have pain. Allow your body to feel the love.

• Send a message to your body. For example, say to yourself, “Tonight I will sleep in eight hours of Qigong meditation. Tomorrow when I wake, all my channels are open. All the blockages in my body are gone. I am completely healed, and I feel happy and healthy.”

• When you wake in the morning, don’t spring out of bed right away. Lie still as you take three deep breaths. Then rub your hands and massage your face. Massage your ears. Then get up and enjoy your day.

“When you sleep well and feel peace in your body,” Chunyi says, “every cell has time to rejuvenate. The next morning you wake up with good energy and are ready to go!”

Be careful, that’s my warning.

Many of us who take supplements rarely stop taking those supplements when we start taking prescription drugs.

As I was browsing news on Alternative Medicine this morning, I came across this article in Medicine News Daily.

Certain herb and dietary supplements (HDS) can produce potentially dangerous drug interference, especially among people taking medication for cardiovascular or nervous system issues.

Whoa!

These findings are part of an extensive new research review published in the International Journal of Clinical Practice.

Here are the Important results of the study include:

• Using 213 HDS entities and 509 prescribed medications, 882 HDS-drug interactions were covered in terms of their components and severity.

• Warfarin, insulin, aspirin digoxin, and ticlopidine had the largest number of documented interactions with HDS.

• Over 42 percent of the drug interactions were produced by the HDS changing the pharmacokinetics of the prescribed drugs.
  -the process by which a drug is taken in, distributed, broken down and eliminated by the body.

• More than 26 percent of the total were classified as major interactions.

• There were 152 contraindications, the most common of which involved the gastrointestinal system, neurological system, and andrenal/genitourinary diseases.

• The biggest number of contraindications came from flaxseed, echinacea, and yohimbe.

Bottom line… if taking drugs prescribed by a doctor, make sure you tell the doctor what supplements you are taking and ask them if there are any issues with continuing their use while on the drugs.

The Original Post is Located Here: Can Every Cancer Be Cured In Weeks? This Guy Thinks So…

By Dr. Mercola

Dr. Robert Rowen was board-certified and recertified by the American Boards of Family Practice and Emergency Medication; he’s currently also approved by the American Board of Clinical Medical Toxicology.

He’s additionally a leader in medical liberty, largely with his pioneering work in 1990 in Alaska, where he was instrumental in producing the very first statutory defense for alternative medicine in the United States. Alaska’s governor selected him to the state medical board in 1992.

I have actually talked to Dr. Rowen before on the topics of natural health, cholesterol levels and statin medications. This discussion will certainly examine the interesting usages for oxidative medicine and oxidation therapies.

Exactly what is Oxidative Medicine?

When most individuals consider oxidation, they think about free of charge radicals and the need to protect themselves using antioxidants. Nonetheless, when utilized therapeutically, oxidants can be valuable for treating a large variety of conditions varying from viral and fungal infections to joint discomfort and arthritis.

Dr. Rowen described:

“Oxidation medicine is any sort of number of treatments that uses oxidants. Oxidants are electron receptors. Oxygen is typically the final electron receptor of oxidants, which facilitate and promote body processes.

The three that are most generally utilized parenterally– implying intravenously or by other injection– would certainly be ozone therapy, ultraviolet blood irradiation therapy, and intravenous hydrogen peroxide treatment. Believe it or not, a high dosage of vitamin C has actually now been shown to work through oxidation medications, since it stimulates the production of hydrogen peroxide in the tissues.”

A Cure for Staph Infections Discovered in 1943

Using oxidative therapies scientifically was first documented during the wonderful influenza outbreak of 1918-1920. Throughout that time a British doctor in India was able to cut the death price of influenza and pneumonia by 50 percent using intravenous hydrogen peroxide treatment. Ultraviolet energy had been applied to skin for skin infections. Then, in the 1930s and ’40s, ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI) treatment began to appear in the literature and a physicist named Knott established a technique for getting rid of some blood, treating it with ultraviolet light, and putting it back into the customer.

Bear in mind, this was prior to antibiotics, and the treatment was remarkably effective for treating infections that would have otherwise been deadly.

“I have every American article that was ever before published on ultraviolet blood irradiation treatment, and the results were just spectacular in regards to exactly what it could do to bacterial infections, viral infections, and even allergic problems,” Dr. Rowen stated.

Now, more than half a century later on we’re facing an epidemic of antibiotic-resistant conditions like MRSA staph infections. Dr. Rowen continued:

“In 1943, I believe it was the American Log of Surgery, they had a write-up revealing that the Knott strategy was made use of for staph infections. We have a crisis in this country today with staph. People are passing away. They (UBI clinicians) started utilizing UBI on a series of staph infections and patients passed away. But they occurred to notice that the patients that died … had actually additionally concurrently been provided the new ‘wonder drug,’ sulfa. They thought that possibly that (sulfa) could be meddling.

So they did another series of clients with staph. Each of them lived with just a few sessions of UBI. These clients were denied using sulfa. Sulfa really happens to absorb ultraviolet energy. So indeed, it would meddle.

But returning to 1943, we have a remedy for staph. It doesn’t matter whether it’s MRSA or not. MRSA indicates methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. That germ is no more pathogenic or pathological than other common staph. The only difference is it occurs to be resistant to the fairly (I said fairly) safe antibiotic, methicillin.

So you have to utilize extraordinarily poisonous prescription antibiotics, if you’re able to treat it at all. Keep in mind, that germ is not any different in terms of its pathogenicity, meaning its risk of hurting you. And it’s no more or less prone today to ultraviolet energy than it was four billion years ago, since organisms have actually had years to get made use of to the sunlight’s energy and they have not, since they can not.”

The Ultimate Safe “Vaccination”?

So just how, particularly, does UBI work? When you take numerous ounces of blood out of your body and expose it to ultraviolet energy, it comes to be cleansed of UV-sensitive pathogens. What about the rest of the blood that’s contaminated?

Dr. Rowen explained:

“If you offer that blood a fresh start, you inactivate the organisms with the ultraviolet, and give it back to the body, the body can now see the antigen framework of those organisms, or in additional words, the 3 perspective framework. It understands that those organisms are there, but the organisms happen to be dead, so they’re not going to hurt you. Your body could then see those organisms and mount a much more effective invulnerable feedback.”

Simplistically, another way to explain that would certainly be as the best, safe vaccination, since you’re getting the proper amount, however you’re not getting any ingredients that are possibly harmful like preservatives, mercury, aluminum, and all those other components.

Dr. Rowen continued:

“All the toxins could be inactivated by ultraviolet probably due to the fact that it holds so much energy, it could really break linkages. That’s one of the things that it’s doing. Additionally, we understand that germs and viruses do not have a system to secure themselves from oxidation. Viruses, for instance, have exactly what’s called lipid envelopes, suggesting they’re surrounded by lipids. These lipids could be extremely susceptible to oxidative damage. If they’re changed, then they’re not practical and the illness could not be able to pass through the cell.”

Remarkably, in Germany they have been using a similar procedure known as slight autohemotherapy for decades. Throughout this process, a small portion of blood, such as 5-10 cc’s, are eliminated, ozonated or exposed to UV light, shaken up then given back as a “vaccine” in the hip, to stimulate the immune system. Significant autohemotherapy involves taking six to seven ounces of blood and undergoing the same process, for comparable immune-boosting perks. The very same procedure can be done with ozone instead of ultraviolet.

Dr. Rowen says that these therapies are the supreme modern treatment for influenza. Rather than take a shot in the dark on a possibly dangerous vaccine, he makes use of oxidation. These strategies are his first choice for treating influenza and viruses. Research and experience suggests they should cut recovery time about in half. In fact, intravenous hydrogen peroxide was published in 1920 in Lancet to cut by 50 % the death rate from the horrible Spanish influenza epidemic in India, and UBI cured viral pneumona rather rapidly in American healthcare facilities in the 1940′s.

Fantastic Improvements in Lyme Illness, Cardiovascular disease Recovery and Even more

On Dr. Rowen’s YouTube stations, “RobertRowenMD,” you could hear stories from many clients who have experienced amazing enhancements, occasionally after just 2 or 3 UVI or ozone treatments. Dr. Rowen shared the case of a certified health expert with Lyme illness, which is really challenging to treat. In a matter of weeks, he was available in with a smile on his face rating his enhancement eight points on scale of 10. In other words, coming in at absolutely no, 10 is best. In 3 weeks, he improved to a 8. And an additional was a woman with skin MRSA whose issue faded substantially with just her very first session of ozone.

In another situation, an eye cosmetic surgeon who Dr. Rowen described as a “cardiac cripple” due to a heart attack also experienced an eight-point enhancement after 4 to six weeks of treatment with intravenous oxidation treatment, oral and occasional intravenous chelation therapy, and nutrients.

Other cases feature a female with bone-on-bone arthritis who was advised to obtain joint replacement, and in a couple of sessions of ozone gas injections into her knee joints she not had pain. In a comparable case, a lady who was told she required an ankle replacement experienced a 90 percent enhancement in just two sessions of ozone treatments.

How is it that oxidative therapies have the capacity to treat such a broad variety of health issues? Dr. Rowen clarified the research of Velio Bocci, an Italian MD who has actually written various books on ozone. At first, he got to speculating exactly how specialists could get such a broad selection of specific responses and cures to an actually broad range of non-specific conditions using oxidative medication. It didn’t make sense to him, because Western medication is designed to shoot a bullet at one certain illness like, say, methicillin for staph.

Dr. Rowen continued:

“He [Bocci] then began studying on the results of ozone on the immune system. He found that ozone generated a whole host of cytokines and interferons. Those are the hormones that white blood cells make use of to speak with each other. These are extraordinarily immune stimulating. Exactly what he discovered, in his own words, was that ‘ozone is the ideal cytokine inducer.’ Contrast that to Pharma, which is trying to dissect out individual cytokines and interferons for parenteral use. And they’re wiping out people, since you’re providing one.

Bocci discovered that when you use oxidation treatment– and this crosses over to ultraviolet, same thing– you’re promoting your white cells to come alive and do what God made those cells to do, which is to go out and wipe out infections. He additionally located that ozone treatment creates exactly what he calls, super-gifted red cell. Red blood cells … carry oxygen. A super-gifted red cell would certainly be a red cell that can dump its oxygen into the tissues. Due to the fact that it might hold oxygen, however if it doesn’t do away with that oxygen, that’s not going to do you any good.

He states, ‘Ozone produces super-gifted red cells.’ So now we’re getting a treatment that improves oxygenation. I’m an oxygen guy. Burn more air, you recover, promote, and augment the immune system. It’s a truly good one-two punch to jumpstart your body. It doesn’t simply handle the invulnerable system. If you’re going to get even more air to the tissues, you can easily recover virtually anything.”

Using Oxidative Medicine Preventively in the house: The Best Anti-Aging Treatment of All Time?

Dr. Rowen is, to his expertise, the longest living constant individual of oxidation therapy in North America, given that 1986. He utilizes this prophylactically because, in his words:

“I take place to think that oxidation treatment is a best– if not the supreme– anti-aging therapy … I really think this. I have been doing this for years. I have been in ozone, like I stated, longer than anybody in North America. I think it’s the utmost anti-aging therapy. I do it regularly even on me.

One choice is to use oxygenation therapy while you work out. Dr. Rowen continued:

“My favorite here is workout with air treatment additionally known as, EWOT exercise with air therapy). I have actually covered that consistently in Second Opinion. With EWOT, you breathe air at a high concentration. Attempt and get it as close to 100 percent, as you can while you exercise. A German named Manfred Von Ardenne studied this lots of years ago. He discovered that if you exercise with this added lots of air coming in under a higher partial pressure, suggesting 100 percent air, you could turn around aging in your capillaries and enhance oxygenation of your body.

This is any type of guy’s technique to improving oxygenation. All you need is an oxygenator. I have actually discussed this in my newsletter, Second Opinion, with full details on ways to do it. It’s not costly to do.”

Why Isn’t really Oxidative Medicine More Extensively Understood?

If you’re experiencing joint pain, Lyme disease or an infection, drugs are undoubtedly the go-to treatment suggested by your physician. This is, sadly, the way the medical system is established– to promote medications and surgical treatment initially, also when safer, more natural alternatives exist. When asked why he thinks oxidative medication isn’t adopted more commonly,

Dr. Rowen said:

“One of the reasons why is due to the fact that these drugs are very, extensively promoted. If you take the case of any of the NSAIDs or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines, I tell my patients, ‘You could reduce your discomfort by taking the medication today and destroy your cartilage tomorrow,’ because one of the systems by which they act is decreasing the production of cartilage. So they’re in fact causing long-term joint inflammations by reducing your pain forcibly today.

But the medicine business is a massive sector. Everywhere you turn on tv … [and] you see these commercials for petrochemical pharmaceuticals.

I’m speculating when are the people going to awaken? There are lots of alternatives. If you’re actually in pain, there’s a lot of ways to lower the COX enzyme or cyclooxygenase enzymes, which is just what these drugs do, without poisoning yourself. Curcumin is a terrific one. Ginger is another one. Almost all bioflavonoids do it with very little danger.

The reason why you do not see things like ozone out there taking over things is generally because of what I call the most corrupt market worldwide. That gets back to the national politics, where if you can not make a better product, just how do you keep your product out there? You can not do it in a free enterprise. You have to purchase the government, so that you can easily purchase a monopoly on what you have and keep out everything else. That’s what we have in this nation today.

We have the most effective illness upkeep system cash could buy. It’s not a wellness system. It’s a disease upkeep system.”

Extra Resources for Exploring Oxidative Therapies

“I think that the essential treatment for practically every condition is getting the body to burn air. You burn oxygen – you make energy – you feel better. Oxidation therapy is a system that’s with practically no dangers,” Dr. Rowen said. “They can easily stimulate much better circulation and better invulnerable system. They really switch on mitochondrial procedures. If you consider the blood levels of lactate and pyruvate after you experience oxidation, these lower. The only method they can easily decrease is if you’re turning on mitochondria (energy manufacturing).”
