Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I don't know who the " key members " in the Budwig Group are, or their experiences or qualifications, but I personally will venture that they are out to lunch unless they provide specific information to change my mind. Certainly the flaxseed and cottage cheese/yogurt part of the Budwig diet (and that is the part I recommend highest) is completely compatible with oleander. Perhaps there are other elements they think might not match up? I have great respect for the Budwig diet (or at least the key elements of it) and it has been a part of my recommendations from day one. The makers of Anvirzel vouch for it's compatibility with oleander, as does MD Anderson lead research scientist Dr. Robert Newman, and so does Marc Swanepoel (who formulated the Sutherlandia OPC). Add the flaxseed and cottage cheese/yogurt part to the natural anti-cancer protocol I have posted will give you a very good cancer fighting and cancer beating protocol - one that better and more practical than the Budwig Diet alone. A lot of groups seem to be overly protective and overly zealous of their own protocols - maintaining that they must be followed to the letter or else (and on " or else " sometimes is that it gives them an out when the protocol fails!) while rejecting compatibility with other protocols. I understand - I am a bit the same way when it comes to oleander and the things I recommend. However, I have always recommended a multi-element approach. And besides, I KNOW that oleander and the rest of the protocol works. I have seen the same attitude with Essaic (NOT a strong standalone cancer treatment, despite the protests of the ardent followers)and a number of other groups, as well as with groups like the fanatic followers of the supreme huckster Trudeau (who knows very little about natural health, but a whole lot about hype and relieving people of their money) and the stinky breathed Atkins diet folks (NOT a healthy diet, regardless of the hype and apologists).

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Hi.. Sometimes our vitamins do not even absorb which I experienced and vitamins can have fillers in them. One health food store person told me when I asked why Calcium carbonate is used many times and she said because it is cheap. The bones cannot absorb it. She said the only calcium the bones can absorb is the calcium hydroxey apetite and that can be found in the Jarrow formulas in one called BONE UP.....even my chiro alerted me to that one also. -Mary 970-282-8551 In a message dated 5/18/2008 2:43:43 PM Mountain Daylight Time, drlanphier writes: I've been on the Budwig group for about a year and a half, maybe longer.

Again, the devotion to the protocol by the moderators is outstanding. The mantra that I take issue with is that Dr. Budwig said that ALL supplementation is synthetic, the body doesn't use it efficiently (in fact, it can do more harm than good) and that you can get all your needed vitamins/minerals from your food. Personally, I think the supplementation mantra has been taken to the extreme. There is a lady in South Africa that gets great results using the BP and I have talked with her (though email) and she tests her clients and then gives supplementation according to what it needed. Now, I stress that these people are under the care of a practitioner and are not doing the protocol or supplementation without a knowledgeable person watching over them. Specifically, Dr. Budwig did NOT recommend HIGH amounts of anti-oxidants. Why? Because her protocol is all about oxygenating the body. In my opinion, this is the best way to get rid of cancer as disease cannot live in an oxygenated state. Many think that if you are oxygenating the body, then you must counter-act with anti-oxidants because of free-radicals. Personally, my belief is that we are so oxygen deificient that it would take a tremendous amount of oxygen before we would even have to worry about free-radicals - so I am not in the "oxygen and free-radical" camp. The cancer protocol that I did was also all about oxygenating the body. Yes, I took supplements that contained anti-oxidants but not at tremendously high amounts. I did much more oxygenating than anti-oxidants. I have tried at times to explain to the BP group about "food grade" supplementation, but got put on moderated status (which is were I stay with most groups that I am on and that’s ok) so basically anything that I say about supplements gets censored. Now, I hardly ever post and have found out that there are many that have been treated in this manner....many that are very knowledgeable. The BP is excellent and the diet should be strictly followed and I have no argument with that at all. I know, personally, how important it is to be compliant to a program or protocol - it is a must if you want to see results! My concern is about the fear that some people have about any type of supplementation. Our food supply (even organic) is becoming more and more adulterated. It does not contain the amount of vitamins and minerals that it did even 25 years ago. Yet, people will not believe this because they trust the "organic standard." I have read over and over and over about how there are just not enough checks and balances in the organic camp to make sure that every food is grown according to standards. We have witnessed this with organic dairys not following standards and very recently with organic personal care products. Plus cross contamination of genetically modified crops is a HUGE concern. If our food was really providing enough nutrients then possibly we would not see vegetarians present the same nutritional deficiencies as those who are not vegetarians. I do want to say that there is a good amount of people who have followed the BP (some very militantly and some have even added supplementation) that have gotten well. I have seen more results with the BP than any other cancer diet and this is the one that I recommend. Why some get well and others do not, I don't know. But from what I see with clients it most likely has to do with compliance and whether or not people decide to deal with past anger, hurt and negative emotions. Many think that this is not necessary - however, I KNOW that it is necessary IF getting well is the desired result. Some on the BP seem to do better once they ditch their supplements. There could be many reasons for this such as quality of supplements, mixing of certain supplements, amounts that are being consumed, MLM supplements that contain sugar such as the fruit berries, etc. And, please realize that the “power of suggestion†is VERY real. I am not sure how oleander is classified when it comes to anti-oxidant activity. Possibly Marc or Tony can enlighten us about this specifically. Personally, I think it is fine to take along with the BP. Many on the BP use Essiac Tea and that seems to be "allowed", but not necessarily recommended. I believe that oleander has been studied as much or more as other supplements or herbs. However, I do believe that people need to make sure that if they are making the “soup†that the directions should be followed, to the letter. The BP is a complete lifestyle change which is what is needed when dealing with cancer. It, like other cancer protocols, is a 24/7 program. I always tell clients that the lifestyle that they were living when they received a cancer diagnosis obviously was not conducive to good health and therefore needs to be drastically changed. This is not easy for most people and some will absolutely refuse any type of change and instead opt for something they “think†is "easy" like chemo/radiation. Certainly that is their choice. We are all brought up with the “drugs cure†mentality and it is difficult to put that aside. Many come to the Budwig Protocol very close to checking-out or have been sent home to get their affairs in order; many come right after receiving a diagnosis and many are there seeking information for loved ones. Many get on the protocol and gripe or whine because of the "change" and how difficult it is to make the changes that are required; many dive in with both feet, ask a lot of questions and do whatever it takes to become compliant. By the way, this last type are the ones that usually get the best results. JThe truth is that we really don’t know for sure what Dr. Budwig would say, personally, about Oleander, Essiac Tea, food-grade supplements or other modalities that have come along since her death. The best thing to do for your own particular situation is to research and educate. I think that the help of groups such as this one and others along with finding a knowledgeable healthcare professional is very warranted. Just remember that opinions are like belly buttons – most everyone has one.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Hi Tony, Thank you for your quick and useful response. The key person I mentioned is Sandra Olson, owner of that of 5000+ list members. http://health.FlaxSeedOil2/ Sandra never said that oleander was not compatible with the Budwig Protocol. All she said was as follows: << I wouldn't consider including something as experimental as oleander. The BP works very well without it. >> And this was in response to a very brief question on the part of another person in that group, as follows: << Sandra, I was reading on a different group and they said oleander and Budwig are compatible. What do you think? >> I personaly see no conflict between the two, and I am simply trying to find out how one goes about determining what products are compatible and what are not. I have been on Protocel for 18 months for prostate cancer and discussed that matter at length with Tony Bell by phone. Protocel is not compatible with MANY other products, and this includes both the Budwig Protocol and oleander. Duane Christensen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t have to be concerned about trying to get healthy after “treatment” because all during your protocol your body will also be healing in the manner that is best for it. By the way, Tony, I so agree with you about Atkins, Trudeau (I ordered some skincare products that he was selling several years back and they were absolutely laden with chemicals!!) and others. If there is a “fear factor” in any protocol, then I would suggest much research and education to learn “why” that fear factor is there and if it is really legit. And one more thing – there is no magic bullet for cancer in conventional medicine or in natural medicine. None. What works is bringing the body back into health through detoxification & cleansing, healthy diet, supplementation, pure-clean water, exercise, sunshine, healthy environment and healthy emotions (most do not do near enough work in this area). A lot of work? YES. Worth it? ABSOLUTELY! Be Well Loretta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 People used to be able to get all they needed from food, but that has changed. Organic layer soil depletion and the lack of trace minerals in the soil ensure that is no longer true. Please see malcolmbeck.com for information about soil depletion and the worldwide destruction modern farming methods have done to the planet and to our foods. Carbon in the atmosphere is a farming result, not the result of burning carbon fuels.Many single vitamins can be of little value, or be somewhat negative in effect. Food concentrates are much safer and more efficient. Juice Plus is only one of many companies doing this.Make a friend of an organic farmer or grow your own food. It takes a couple decades to build up the organic layer again. And it takes even longer to integrate trace minerals form the inorganic form back to organic form in the soil.Never stop investigating and learning!By the way, flax seed oil or hemp oil and low/no carbohydrate cottage cheese, frapped and cooled is favorite food for bodybuilders who are in the cutting up phase. The top notch natural bodybuilders and the life extension peoples' sites and list of foods, nutrients, etc. are almost identical.Michael L Goebel, DC, ACN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Hi Loretta, I hope you don't mind, but I found your response on this issue to be of such unusual worth that I posted it in its entirety on my own discussion group: http://health.living_with_prostatecancer/ I am especially interested in the following comment you made: << I am not sure how oleander is classified when it comes to anti-oxidant activity. Possibly Marc or Tony can enlighten us about this specifically. Personally, I think it is fine to take along with the BP. >> As you no doubt know, Protocel is one of the most powerful anti-oxidants ever measured. I, too, am keenly interested to know the anti-oxidant activity of oleander. Though I have been on Protocel the past 18 months with positive results, I have decided to switch to oleander and the Budwig Protocol when I get back to the U.S. in June, for a 3-6 month trial period -- as my treatment program, with my progress (or regress) monitored at Alta Bates Cancer Center in Berkeley, California.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 As I read it, the purists say that Budwig did not believe in vitamins or supplements and thought that her protocol was complete in and of itself.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Hi Mary You are absolutely correct! That’s why it is so important to research and find food-grade supplementation that does not contain toxic excipients, fillers, flow agents and preservatives. The body will use these supplements effectively if the digestive tract is clean and working effectively. Most people have gut concerns which is one reason they get sick to begin with. Constipation is almost at epidemic rates because conventional medicine tells us 3-4 bowel movements PER WEEK is normal. While it might be normal, it is NOT healthy. Actually, Calcium Orotate is the most absorbable form of calcium with Calcium Hydroxy-Appetite very close behind. They are both excellent forms of calcium. Dr. Hans Nieper did a tremendous amount of work with the orotates and his results were amazing. His book, The Curious Man, is a very good read and very informative. Calcium carbonate is “chalk.” Be Well Loretta Lanphier, ND, CN, HHP, CH www.oawhealth.com Sign-up for our FREE Advanced Health & Wellness Newsletter Hi.. Sometimes our vitamins do not even absorb which I experienced and vitamins can have fillers in them. One health food store person told me when I asked why Calcium carbonate is used many times and she said because it is cheap. The bones cannot absorb it. She said the only calcium the bones can absorb is the calcium hydroxey apetite and that can be found in the Jarrow formulas in one called BONE UP.....even my chiro alerted me to that one also. -Mary 970-282-8551 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 That is a truly outstanding response Doc LL - thanks. I am glad to hear you vouch for the group and it's patient mods and can certainly relate to having members who do not bother to look back over the old posts or read the files! Sometimes my own patience may be lacking as I tend to spread myself too thin and always seem to be running behind! To re-iterate some points about Budwig and oleander - Budwig is a favorite of mine too - that is why it has been in my book from day one and why I recommend it. I was probably hasty to infer that the mods in the Budwig group were overly zealous and protective of their protocol - though, no matter what their good qualities, that does seem to be the case. In today's world of every increasing contaminants and decreasing nutrition, I do not think that ANY diet is sufficient by itself. It may work - and Budwig's still seems to work more often than not - but it will have a much better chance if some key supplementation is provided. Neither the Budwig Diet, MMS, nor any other protocol or substance I know of has been as potent or as successful as oleander. One has only to look at the results of DR. Ozel over the past 40 years (over 70% success, yet almost always used after chemo and radiation or along with them as a CAM therapy due to the restrictions of his profession in Turkey - much like in the USA), the success of Anvirzel and the success of Sutherlandia OPC and oleander soup. So far, Marc Swanepoel has had well over 100 cancer victims in South Africa use the OPC the past four plus years for cancers of various types and stages. The ONLY ones who are not alive and well with their cancer either gone, shrinking or in remission, are EIGHT people: three were in their final few days and could not hold down the supplement or anything else and another five succumbed to major organ failure as a probably result of prior chemo. That is actually pretty close to 100% in my way of thinking. Although testimonials are a bit difficult to find and dig up for oleander soup (have patience, some are coming!), I think it speaks volumes when you look back over the entire history of posts here at this group and you find virtually zero unsuccessful stories posted or posts saying that OS is NOT working. I have never deleted or edited a single post about an oleander testimonial good or bad! oleander soup , " Dr. Loretta Lanphier " <drlanphier wrote: > > I've been on the Budwig group for about a year and a half, maybe longer. > First I want to say that I admire the work and diligence of the moderators. > It is not easy helping people who are sick.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Tell Sandra that her Budwig protocol will work even better WITH oleander soup. Or better still, ask her if she would use it when Budwig fails - as it does an appreciable percentage of the time. Experimental? Yeah - Budwig has been around about half a century or so. Oleander use only dates back 5000 years to the ancient Mesopotamians and Phoenicians. For cancer use, it dates back merely to the 8th century BC (by the Egyptians). Oleander is simply less well known - but I AM working on that! Like Budwig it is very effective and quite safe when used as directed. Also like Budwig, it is not a mainstream approved therapy for the most part, and so we are both condemned to the mainstream " experimental " label. They may have the bigger group and better known protocol - I have the best group and the best protocol. And the bottom line is that both are good, they are compatible and what we should be most concerned about is helping people beat cancer and live longer, healthier and happier lives. I just knew I would stir up a can of worms when I made my post about the Budwig Diet and group - lol. Ah well, life would be boring if I did not give in to my rascally side on occasion. oleander soup , " Duane Christensen " <duanechristensen wrote: > > Hi Tony, > > Thank you for your quick and useful response.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Hi..... 3 meals in, 3 meals out and is very easy to do with somehting that crossed my path last June that totally changes the bathroom scene and most people feel the effects in 24 hours. PLus covering a lot of bases and looking younger another suprise being over 70. I looked for months for somehting that would work to rid my body of a vicious quinolone that affected my muscles in a crippling way which created a lot of other problems and taking this internal bath daily from the top down started working right away in that my muscles started to release. If you have tried everything you know of then contact me personally and I'll direct you to this amazing, safe, organic mysterious acting and effective product that tastes quite mild and just as beneficial for pets. We had no other option but to improve as nothing else was acceptable as something is very wrong out there when peope have to suffer and do not have the quality of life they deserve. This has an over 20 year track record, saving lives but was not widely known and people living within 5 minutes of the clinic had no idea how close they were to something very life changing. The formulater has a PHD in nutrition and stumbled onto the formulation by accident and then people began to report seemingly miraculous results which both me and my husband have experienced already and our whole family is also on this and loving the results. Our 52 year old son had a lot of little wrinkles starting to show and now they are gone plus he said he lost weight without trying and "nice" bathroom scenes too. I had so many problems that had dominoed and passed parasites(tapeworms) and other sparkly "stuff" have no idea what it was. I had IBS, systemic candida, my adrenals had reached a 4 and could barely move, a glass of water was even heavy, couldn't stand up straight because of the tight muscles and would hyperventilate, couldn't get into a car much less ride in one, nothing was absorbing and liquid ionic minerals gave me an energy boost, and then Adrenal Factors by Michaels helped a bunch, had myofacia release which was a key move in releasing and repairing facia so muscles could release but still didn't untill this miracle product. Husband had had a heart attack 2 years ago from stress and was taking care of me and he had skin cancers on his face which was blotchy from it..believe it or not everything has changed and his face is smooth now, and his heart doctor read the report of the blood test to him about 5 weeks ago and his cholesterol was perfect and everything else within range a first ever...he had been given lipitor and plavix and he began to look worse and worse and getting stiffer and the heart is a muscle and his thinking was foggier and we stopped all that and went natural.....and then the dramatic changes began to happen since last June for both of us. He shares his story with as many as he can as he is a master electrician and we have our own electrical business....he at 74 is back enjoying what he loves doing but just picking the easy stuff!!!!..I'm standing up straight now and dealing with the fall out of this antibiotic and building and strengthening my skeletel system. (Riding in the car too..) .Now where ths takes us will be very interesting as people have seen the before and after of us and are asking what we are doing....this may be one of the treasures of this century and many many people are learning about this now and truly is saving lives.. -Mary 970-282-8551 In a message dated 5/18/2008 5:58:12 PM Mountain Daylight Time, drlanphier writes: Hi MaryYou are absolutely correct!

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 To all concerned, I personally tried the budwig diet for 3 months.

Certainly the flaxseed and cottage cheese/yogurt part of theBudwig diet (and that is the part I recommend highest) is completelycompatible with oleander. Perhaps there are other elements they thinkmight not match up?I have great respect for the Budwig diet (or at least the key elementsof it) and it has been a part of my recommendations from day one. Themakers of Anvirzel vouch for it's compatibility with oleander, as doesMD Anderson lead research scientist Dr. Robert Newman, and so doesMarc Swanepoel (who formulated the Sutherlandia OPC).Add the flaxseed and cottage cheese/yogurt part to the naturalanti-cancer protocol I have posted will give you a very good cancerfighting and cancer beating protocol - one that better and morepractical than the Budwig Diet alone.A lot of groups seem to be overly protective and overly zealous oftheir own protocols - maintaining that they must be followed to theletter or else (and on "or else" sometimes is that it gives them anout when the protocol fails!) while rejecting compatibility with otherprotocols.I understand - I am a bit the same way when it comes to oleander andthe things I recommend. However, I have always recommended amulti-element approach. And besides, I KNOW that oleander and therest of the protocol works.I have seen the same attitude with Essaic (NOT a strong standalonecancer treatment, despite the protests of the ardent followers)and anumber of other groups, as well as with groups like the fanaticfollowers of the supreme huckster Trudeau (who knows very little aboutnatural health, but a whole lot about hype and relieving people oftheir money) and the stinky breathed Atkins diet folks (NOT a healthydiet, regardless of the hype and apologists).OK - off my soapbox.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Bill, i am helping 3 friends/relatives who have cancer right now. i am the " research man " as these friends of mine have no clue even where to begin. I gave them OPC as a part of their individual protocol. In my research, i found one person who has systematically studied the whole science of alternative cancer treatment. It is apparent to me that he spent literally thousands hours on this and he runs an independent cancer research foundation. His name is Webster Kehr, a highly intelligent researcher, IMO.

They answer the same questions over and over and over (because people are too lazy to read the files) and always do it in a respectful manner. Personally, I would tire of this very quickly because I don’t have a lot of patience with those who refuse to learn how to take responsibilty for their health – of which the first step is that they are asked to read the files for complete instruction.

It is important to mix the FO/CC in the correct ratio and using the correct methods. The main moderator has also put together a video on You-Tube that shows exactly how to make the mixture, which is extremely helpful. Again, the devotion to the protocol by the moderators is outstanding. The mantra that I take issue with is that Dr. Budwig said that ALL supplementation is synthetic, the body doesn't use it efficiently (in fact, it can do more harm than good) and that you can get all your needed vitamins/minerals from your food. Personally, I think the supplementation mantra has been taken to the extreme. There is a lady in South Africa that gets great results using the BP and I have talked with her (though email) and she tests her clients and then gives supplementation according to what it needed. Now, I stress that these people are under the care of a practitioner and are not doing the protocol or supplementation without a knowledgeable person watching over them. Specifically, Dr. Budwig did NOT recommend HIGH amounts of anti-oxidants. Why? Because her protocol is all about oxygenating the body. In my opinion, this is the best way to get rid of cancer as disease cannot live in an oxygenated state. Many think that if you are oxygenating the body, then you must counter-act with anti-oxidants because of free-radicals. Personally, my belief is that we are so oxygen deificient that it would take a tremendous amount of oxygen before we would even have to worry about free-radicals - so I am not in the "oxygen and free-radical" camp. The cancer protocol that I did was also all about oxygenating the body. Yes, I took supplements that contained anti-oxidants but not at tremendously high amounts. I did much more oxygenating than anti-oxidants. I have tried at times to explain to the BP group about "food grade" supplementation, but got put on moderated status (which is were I stay with most groups that I am on and that’s ok) so basically anything that I say about supplements gets censored. Now, I hardly ever post and have found out that there are many that have been treated in this manner....many that are very knowledgeable. The BP is excellent and the diet should be strictly followed and I have no argument with that at all. I know, personally, how important it is to be compliant to a program or protocol - it is a must if you want to see results! My concern is about the fear that some people have about any type of supplementation. Our food supply (even organic) is becoming more and more adulterated. It does not contain the amount of vitamins and minerals that it did even 25 years ago. Yet, people will not believe this because they trust the "organic standard." I have read over and over and over about how there are just not enough checks and balances in the organic camp to make sure that every food is grown according to standards. We have witnessed this with organic dairys not following standards and very recently with organic personal care products. Plus cross contamination of genetically modified crops is a HUGE concern. If our food was really providing enough nutrients then possibly we would not see vegetarians present the same nutritional deficiencies as those who are not vegetarians. I do want to say that there is a good amount of people who have followed the BP (some very militantly and some have even added supplementation) that have gotten well. I have seen more results with the BP than any other cancer diet and this is the one that I recommend. Why some get well and others do not, I don't know. But from what I see with clients it most likely has to do with compliance and whether or not people decide to deal with past anger, hurt and negative emotions. Many think that this is not necessary - however, I KNOW that it is necessary IF getting well is the desired result. Some on the BP seem to do better once they ditch their supplements. There could be many reasons for this such as quality of supplements, mixing of certain supplements, amounts that are being consumed, MLM supplements that contain sugar such as the fruit berries, etc. And, please realize that the “power of suggestion†is VERY real. I am not sure how oleander is classified when it comes to anti-oxidant activity. Possibly Marc or Tony can enlighten us about this specifically. Personally, I think it is fine to take along with the BP. Many on the BP use Essiac Tea and that seems to be "allowed", but not necessarily recommended. I believe that oleander has been studied as much or more as other supplements or herbs. However, I do believe that people need to make sure that if they are making the “soup†that the directions should be followed, to the letter. The BP is a complete lifestyle change which is what is needed when dealing with cancer. It, like other cancer protocols, is a 24/7 program. I always tell clients that the lifestyle that they were living when they received a cancer diagnosis obviously was not conducive to good health and therefore needs to be drastically changed. This is not easy for most people and some will absolutely refuse any type of change and instead opt for something they “think†is "easy" like chemo/radiation. Certainly that is their choice. We are all brought up with the “drugs cure†mentality and it is difficult to put that aside. Many come to the Budwig Protocol very close to checking-out or have been sent home to get their affairs in order; many come right after receiving a diagnosis and many are there seeking information for loved ones. Many get on the protocol and gripe or whine because of the "change" and how difficult it is to make the changes that are required; many dive in with both feet, ask a lot of questions and do whatever it takes to become compliant. By the way, this last type are the ones that usually get the best results. JThe truth is that we really don’t know for sure what Dr. Budwig would say, personally, about Oleander, Essiac Tea, food-grade supplements or other modalities that have come along since her death. The best thing to do for your own particular situation is to research and educate. I think that the help of groups such as this one and others along with finding a knowledgeable healthcare professional is very warranted. Just remember that opinions are like belly buttons – most everyone has one.

Sometimes our vitamins do not even absorb which I experienced and vitamins can have fillers in them. One health food store person told me when I asked why Calcium carbonate is used many times and she said because it is cheap. The bones cannot absorb it. She said the only calcium the bones can absorb is the calcium hydroxey apetite and that can be found in the Jarrow formulas in one called BONE UP.....even my chiro alerted me to that one also. -Mary 970-282-8551 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Systemic candida may be eliminated by going sugar-free and by eating only slow release carbohydrates (such as the sweet potatoe w/ no syrup or sugar added to it). Using a lot of dietary fiber helps, too. Try a powdered blend of psyllium seed, oatmeal bran, and apple pectin. If you are a woman and cannot get rid of candida in the most personal place, try the vaginal suppositories from Bezwecken.Dr. Goebelmd29again wrote: Hi..... 3 meals in, 3 meals out and is very easy to do with somehting that crossed my path last June that totally changes the bathroom scene and most people feel the effects in 24 hours.

I looked for months for somehting that would work to rid my body of a vicious quinolone that affected my muscles in a crippling way which created a lot of other problems and taking this internal bath daily from the top down started working right away in that my muscles started to release. If you have tried everything you know of then contact me personally and I'll direct you to this amazing, safe, organic mysterious acting and effective product that tastes quite mild and just as beneficial for pets. We had no other option but to improve as nothing else was acceptable as something is very wrong out there when peope have to suffer and do not have the quality of life they deserve. This has an over 20 year track record, saving lives but was not widely known and people living within 5 minutes of the clinic had no idea how close they were to something very life changing. The formulater has a PHD in nutrition and stumbled onto the formulation by accident and then people began to report seemingly miraculous results which both me and my husband have experienced already and our whole family is also on this and loving the results. Our 52 year old son had a lot of little wrinkles starting to show and now they are gone plus he said he lost weight without trying and "nice" bathroom scenes too. I had so many problems that had dominoed and passed parasites(tapeworms) and other sparkly "stuff" have no idea what it was. I had IBS, systemic candida, my adrenals had reached a 4 and could barely move, a glass of water was even heavy, couldn't stand up straight because of the tight muscles and would hyperventilate, couldn't get into a car much less ride in one, nothing was absorbing and liquid ionic minerals gave me an energy boost, and then Adrenal Factors by Michaels helped a bunch, had myofacia release which was a key move in releasing and repairing facia so muscles could release but still didn't untill this miracle product. Husband had had a heart attack 2 years ago from stress and was taking care of me and he had skin cancers on his face which was blotchy from it..believe it or not everything has changed and his face is smooth now, and his heart doctor read the report of the blood test to him about 5 weeks ago and his cholesterol was perfect and everything else within range a first ever...he had been given lipitor and plavix and he began to look worse and worse and getting stiffer and the heart is a muscle and his thinking was foggier and we stopped all that and went natural.....and then the dramatic changes began to happen since last June for both of us. He shares his story with as many as he can as he is a master electrician and we have our own electrical business....he at 74 is back enjoying what he loves doing but just picking the easy stuff!!!!..I'm standing up straight now and dealing with the fall out of this antibiotic and building and strengthening my skeletel system.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Well said Tony. I was at that group for a while and got banned for expressing an opinion about using something in addition to speed up toxin removal. I KNOW it would not have interfered with any aspect of the protocol since I researched the protocol well before posting it. Overzealous moderators is putting it mildly! There are a few people who have been successful with the Budwig diet but I wouldn't put my 100% trust in it if I had cancer. Seems to be an effective sunscreen though from the comments I remember at the group. I actually just bought some flax and quark yesterday and plan to start taking some daily to build up my skin's sun resistance and perhaps get rid of some old sun damage. Just about every person in the western world is depleted of essential fatty acids. No wonder people get sunburnt and sick and their brains don't function (meaning ADD, etc). Tony, does your book also come as a hard copy?

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Sharon -I feel your pain! I have been banned from at least 4 groups because the so-called alternative health groups were not receptive to any alternatives they had already chosen. Arrggghh!You are right about the deficiency in essential fatty acids. What most people do not realize is that almost all of us are also deficient in the vital minerals that are the building blocks to every thing else in the body. Without the proper amount of the right minerals, NOTHING works as it is intended to - and that includes the vital trace minerals that have largely been depleted from our soils over the past century.Fortunately, there is a huge prehistoric deposit of plant derived trace minerals in Utah and a wonderful product that provides the pre-digested minerals in the same proportions as they were found in the plants that ended up making the deposits.Here is the product:75 Plant Based Minerals And, since it is from my friend Ben Taylor's Utopia Silver Supplement Company, you can get it (and all other products they have which are not currently on sale) at a 15% discount when you put in our group code LR001.No, my book is not available in hard cover version - but the successor I am working on "Cancer's Natural Enemies" will be. The e-book version allows me to update the book constantly and the current version (as of just the past few weeks) is over 50 pages longer than the original.Tonyoleander soup , "Sharon" <energy_now wrote:>> Well said Tony.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 There is a high probability that most natural cancer programs are not going to give tremendous results in 3 months. We must allow the body time to heal and patience is a virtue when it comes to healing naturally. A person does not get cancer overnight. The cancer has usually been growing for at least 5-10 years, so for us to expect healing or even a response in three months is most likely very premature. A good natural medicine program can take 6-12 months or even more for a response and that is IF the program is being followed correctly and emotions and stress issues are being worked on. It took me 8 months to heal and we were not dealing with a tumor. Many patients find, when using natural medicine to heal, the disease may get worse or the tumor may grow. This can actually be part of the healing process. There are many testimonies of this at the FO/CC group. When you understand exactly “why” there is a tumor, this growth should not be so concerning, unless the tumor is pressing on a vital organ. As I said before there are many that have healed using just the BP and there are those that have healed using the BP and other supplementation and health modalities. It has taken a while for the healing to be complete, thus discipline and tenacity are necessary. As far as being lactose intolerant, if the FO/CC are mixed correctly an emulsification occurs which usually enables people who are truly lactose intolerant to take the mixture without concern. By the way, many who have been told they are lactose really are not but are allergic to the “extras” that are included in many dairy products. For those doing or considering the Budwig Protocol, I highly encourage you to do it EXACTLY like Dr. B recommended which means fresh organic flaxseed oil (extra lignans in the oil means you will pay more and it is not necessary for results), organic cottage cheese (because of the adulteration of dairy) such as Nancy’s and FRESHLY ground flaxseeds. Flax is highly succeptable to oxygenation and will become rancid fast – especially ground flax. Buy the seeds and grind them FRESH for each serving. Barlean’s sells them for a good price, I just wish they would bottle their FO in glass! I also believe that there is a company that has a “pill” that is supposed to mimic the FO/CC blend. To date, we have not heard of one person with cancer getting good results from this product. This is one protocol where it is best not to cut corners no matter how good of a product someone may have come up with, unless there is proof that it definitely gets the same results for cancer patients. I have read what Webster Kehr has to say and I believe he certainly has done research that, at least, gets people to begin doing their own research. For instance, I see nothing special about the Cellect and because of the dosage that he recommends, it is most likely NOT compatable with the Budwig Protocol even though he says that it is. He also promotes the MLM “juices” which are mostly a waste of money, in my opinion. It is in eating the WHOLE fruit that you get the complete synergistic benefits of that fruit and thus you will not experience a spike in blood sugar. Eating the whole fruit also allows the body to utilize the vitamins, mineral, fiber, water and OXYGEN content properly. He also does not understand how to mix the FO/CC mixture correctly; it will not work to just mix it together with a spoon as it must be emulsified. Also, to my knowledge, Dr. Budwig does NOT endorse mixing Cod Liver Oil with the FO/CC mixture as Kehr recommends. He does recommend some good modalities but since he does not have the Budwig protocol exactly correct, it makes me wonder about other recommendations. If someone is not following a protocol correctly then expecting good results may not be realistic. Again, his site is an excellent place to start and I know it has helped a lot of people. All I am saying is to do your research and don’t stop. Make sure that everything you are doing works together synergistically, that you understand and have correct directions on HOW to implement modalities and that you FOLLOW the program militantly. Cancer does not take a holiday and thus we shouldn’t either. If you find yourself taking a tremendous amount of different suppplements then most probably you are not on a program that works together synergistically. It is so worth the time and effort to be under a knowledgeable “watchful” eye. Before I got on a program under a watchful eye, I was spending $200/week at the health food store because anytime someone even hinted that I “needed” this or that product, I ran out and purchased it. One more thing….detoxification, cleansing and keeping the liver supported and clean is VERY important. Many protocols don’t even address this thus, in my opinion, the reason many don’t achieve success. Absorption, transportation and utilization are greatly impaired in those with disease – detoxification and cleansing will help to make sure that what is put into the body will be used effectively.
