1) Cilantro

 

Dr. David G. Williams

 

There's nothing I like more than learning about inexpensive, common herbs or

spices that exhibit unusual healing properties. Historically, the use of herbs

and spices in cooking evolved as a method to preserve foods and make them safer

to store and eat. We've grown accustomed to using these items to enhance or

accentuate the flavors of food, but researchers continue to discover herbs have

much more to offer than just good taste. Cilantro is such an herb and one of its

medicinal benefits was uncovered through the work of Dr. Yoshiaki Omura.

 

Dr. Omura treated several patients for an eye infection called trachoma

(granular conjunctivitis), which is caused by the micro-organism Chlamydia

trachomatis. Following the standard treatment, Dr. Omura found that the

patients' symptoms would initially clear up, only to recur within a few months.

He experienced similar difficulties in treating viral-related problems like

herpes simplex types I & II and cytomegalovirus infections.

 

After taking a closer look, Dr. Omura found these organisms seemed to hide and

flourish in areas of the body where there were concentrations of heavy metals

like mercury, lead, and aluminum. Somehow the organisms were able to use the

toxic metals to protect themselves from the medicine. While he was testing for

these toxic metals, Dr. Omura discovered that the leaves of the coriander plant

(cilantro) could accelerate the excretion of mercury, lead, and aluminum from

the body.

 

This came about accidentally when he noticed that mercury levels in urine

increased after an individual consumed Vietnamese soup. The healthy soup

contained coriander, or, as it is better known in this country, cilantro. And

when cilantro was used concurrently with natural antiviral or antibiotic agents

and/or omega-3 fatty acids, the infections could be eliminated for good.

 

Dr. Omura's discovery resulted in a novel technique, which greatly increased the

body's ability to clear up recurring infections, both viral and bacterial. By

chance, he also discovered an inexpensive, easy way to remove -- or chelate --

toxic metals from the nervous system and body tissues. Chelation therapy using

chemical agents like EDTA has long been used to help remove heavy metals, but

cilantro is the only natural substance I'm aware of that has demonstrated this

ability.

 

I highly recommend you take advantage of this " poor man's chelation treatment. "

All it takes is adding a quantity of cilantro to your diet daily, for two or

three weeks. You can add a handful of fresh cilantro to a salad, mix a couple of

teaspoons of cilantro pesto with whole wheat pasta, spread the pesto on toasted

Italian bread, or have it with your favorite fish (good in soups). Any of these

dishes will give you the dosages Dr. Omura used in his research.

2) Cilantro Chelation Pesto

 

Heavy metal poisoning is rampant. It is a major cause of hormonal imbalances,

cancer, thyroid problems, neurological disturbances, learning problems,

depression, food allergies, parasites, etc. etc. This is a great recipe that is

not only easy to make but also really yummy, and it tells you how to remove

heavy metals from the body!

 

Cilantro is truly a healing food. One friend suffering from high blood pressure

due to mercury poisoning had her blood pressure return to normal after eating

two teaspoons of this pesto daily for only a week. So whether you need to

detoxify heavy metals from your body or just wish to use it as a preventative

measure, 2 teaspoons a day is all you need to take. This pesto has now become a

regular in my diet. Enjoy!

 

Cilantro Chelation Pesto

 

4 cloves garlic

1/3 cup Brazil nuts (selenium)

1/3 cup sunflower seeds (cysteine)

1/3 cup pumpkin seeds (zinc, magnesium)

2 cups packed fresh cilantro (coriander, Chinese parsley) (vitamin A)

2/3 cup flaxseed oil

4 tablespoons lemon juice (vitamin C)

2 tsp dulse powder

Sea salt to taste

 

Process the cilantro and flaxseed oil in a blender until the coriander is

chopped. Add the garlic, nuts and seeds, dulse and lemon juice and mix until the

mixture is finely blended into a paste. Add a pinch to sea salt to taste and

blend again. Store in dark glass jars if possible. It freezes well, so purchase

cilantro in season and fill enough jars to last through the year.

 

Cilantro has been proven to chelate toxic metals from our bodies in a relatively

short period of time. Combined with the benefits of the other ingredients, this

recipe is a powerful tissue cleanser.

 

Two teaspoons of this pesto daily for three weeks is purportedly enough to

increase the urinary excretion of mercury, lead, and aluminum, thus effectively

removing these toxic metals from our bodies. We can consider doing this cleanse

for three weeks at least once a year. The pesto is delicious on toast, baked

potatoes, and pasta.

3) Eat While Detoxing Your Body!

A delightful healthy and tasty remedy to our environmental polluted bodies. I

didn't discover it but I strongly approve of Dr. Omura's findings. How great is

it that you can eat and detox at the same time?

 

Dr. Omura said he discovered, almost by accident, that the leaves of the

coriander plant can accelerate the excretion of mercury, lead and aluminum from

the body. He had been treating several patients for an eye infection called

trachoma (granular conjunctivitis), which is caused by the micro-organism

Chlamydia trachomatis. Following the standard treatment with antibiotics, Dr.

Omura found that the patients' symptoms would clear up initially, then recur

within a few months. He experienced similar difficulties in treating

viral-related problems like Herpes Simplex types I & II and Cytomegalovirus

infections.

 

After taking a closer look, Dr. Omura found these organisms seemed to hide and

flourish in areas of the body where there were concentrations of heavy metals

like mercury, lead, and aluminium. Somehow the organisms were able to use the

toxic metals to protect themselves from the antibiotics.

 

It just so happens that while he was testing for these toxic metals, Dr. Omura

noticed that mercury levels in the urine increased after one consumed a healthy

serving of Vietnamese soup. The soup contained Chinese parsley, or as it is

better known in this country, cilantro. (Some of you may also know it as

coriander, since it comes from the leaves of the coriander plant.)

 

Further testing revealed that eating cilantro also increased the urinary

excretion of lead and aluminum. And when cilantro was used concurrently with the

antibiotics or natural antiviral agents and/or fatty acids like EPA with DHA,

the above infections could be eliminated for good. ...

 

Dr. Omura has made a remarkable discovery. He's found a novel technique, which

greatly increases our ability to clear up recurring infections, both viral and

bacterial. And, perhaps more exciting, he's discovered an inexpensive, easy way

to remove (or " chelate " ) toxic metals from the nervous system and body

tissues-one that anyone can use.

 

Great News for Amalgam Sufferers

 

Cilantro Pesto

 

1 clove garlic

cup almonds, cashews, or other nuts

1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves

2 tablespoons lemon juice

6 tablespoons olive oil

 

Put the cilantro and olive oil in blender and process until the cilantro is

chopped. Add the rest of the ingredients and process to a lumpy paste. (You may

need to add a touch of hot water and scrape the sides of the blender.) You can

change the consistency by altering the amount of olive oil and lemon juice, but

keep the 3:1 ratio of oil to juice. (It freezes well, so you can make several

batches at once.)

 

Can you imagine eating and detoxing? Yes by adding cilantro to your foods that's

exactly what happens!

 

Go in health!

4) Cilantro Blend -- Coriander/Yellow Dock Tincture

 

http://www.ferlowbrothers.com/coriander_yellow_dock.htm

 

Detoxifies Heavy Metal (mercury from amalgamated fillings)

 

By Klaus Ferlow

 

Excerpt from The Botanical Review -- a technical bulletin published by:

The Institute of Quantum & Molecular Medicine:

 

Since Roman times cilantro has been used as food and medicine. A recent study by

Dr. Yoshiaki Omura from the Heart Disease Research Foundation, New York, NY, USA

(Acupuncture Electrotherapy Res. 96; 21 (2) 133-60 and Acupunct Eletrother Res.

1995 Aug-Dec. 20 (3-4) : 195-229 has discovered that the herb cilantro will

detoxify mercury from neural tissue*., is used to help stimulate the appetite

and relieves minor digestive irritation.This is a remarkable discovery. It is a

novel technique, which greatly increased our ability to clear up recurring

infections, both viral and bacterial. Bioactive Cilantro blend is an

inexpensive, easy way to remove (or chelate) toxic metals from the nervous

system and body tissues. Cilantro blend contains yellow dock to help drain the

mercury from the connective tissues. It is an excellent blood cleanser, tonic,

and builder, working through increasing the ability of the liver and related

organs to strain and purify the blood and lymph system. Achieves

it’s tonic properties through the astringent purification of the blood supply

to the glands and acts as a cleansing herb for the lymphatic system.

 

Do dental amalgam fillings contain toxic material?

 

Silver fillings are made up of five different metals, amalgamated together to

form a solid mass which hardens in the mouth. The main ingredient in amalgam is

mercury, which accounts for about 50 percent of the completed filling. The other

ingredients are silver, copper, tin, zinc and occasionally nickel. Mercury

vapors are released in the mouth in low level concentrations when fillings are

subjected to the pressure and abrasion of chewing.

 

Actually, all of the elements comprising dental amalgam are toxic metals, but

mercury is by far the most toxic. Sharma & Obersteiner established that mercury

is more toxic than lead, cadmium, and even arsenic. Mercury has a very high

absorption rate and is capable of entering the human body very rapidly and

completely. Mercury vapor is fat soluble and neutral electrically. It has the

ability to easily penetrate cell membranes and pass rapidly into the body from

the blood into the body cells.

 

Systemic Effects:

 

Neurological: Frequent or chronic headaches, dizziness, ringing or noises in the

ears, fine tremors (hands, feet, lips, eyelids, and tongue).

 

Immunological: Allergies, rhinitis (inflammation of the nose), sinusitis,

asthma, lymphaddenopathy (especially cervical or neck).

 

Endocrine: Subnormal temperatures, cold, clammy skin, especially hands and feet,

excessive perspiration.

 

Other: Muscle weakness, fatigue, hypoxia (lack of oxygen), anorexia, joint

pains, anemia, Edema (swelling), loss of weight.

 

Severe Cases: Hallucinations, manic depression.

 

Cilantro’s postulated mechanism of action is to act as a reducing agent changing

the charge on the intracellular mercury to a neutral state allowing mercury to

diffuse down it’s concentration gradient into connective tissue. This is called

connective tissue mercury toxicity. The next step is to remove the mercury from

the connective tissue. Mercury is preferentially attracted to the cell wall of

the unicellular organism chorella. It can also be bound to sulfhydryl groups in

garlic or to sulfur in the form of MSM. To get the mercury out, a cleansing of

the liver, intestines, kidneys and lymph should be done. The clinical goal is to

convert mercury into a state enabling it to be removed from the cells and be

eliminated from the brain, connective tissues, lymph system, liver,

gastrointestinal tract, and kidneys.

 

Good News For Amalgam Sufferers:

 

Chelation therapy using chemicals like EDTA has long been used to help remove

these heavy metals, but cilantro is a natural substance that is good news for

people suffering from the ill effects of amalgam dental fillings.

 

Dr. Omura recently performed another study in which three amalgams were removed

from an individual using all of the precautions available to prevent absorption

of the mercury from the amalgam. Even with strong air and water suctioning,

water rinses, and a rubber dental dam, significant amounts of mercury were later

found in the individual’s lungs, kidneys, endocrine organs, liver and heart. No

mercury was detected in these tissues prior to the date of removal.

 

The active components in cilantro are fragile, and processing by heat will

destroy the chelating agents. It is therefore recommended that it be taken in a

liquid botanical preparation or raw, to get the most out of this remarkable

herb.

 

Indications and Usage:

 

Metal toxicity, mercury amalgam toxicity, immune disorders, premature aging,

cardiovascular disease, allergies, Alzheimer’s, gastrointestinal disorders,

psychological disorders, asthma, cancer, chronic fatigue, endocrine disorders

and gingivitis.

You should NOT try chelating heavy metals if you have amalgam

fillings, Chelating will pull the mercury from your fillings into

your body, and will make you very sick.

 

ALA is one of the BEST chelators to remove mercury from the brain,

it crosses over the Blood brain barrier and pulls the mercury out,

DMSA removes mercury from the body. Children who are being chelated

for mercury poisoning are using this protocol with success.

Andrew Cutler is a health care consultant in the Seattle area. He

has a PhD in chemistry from Princeton, a BS in physics from the

University of California, is a patent agent and a registered

professional chemical engineer. His research has led to a number of

publications in chemistry, chemical engineering and space related

journals.

 

He also has engaged in extensive self study in biochemistry and

medicine due to assorted health problems coalescing into a

devastating " mystery syndrome " his doctors were not able to cure -

or even diagnose - for quite some time. After being able to work

with his doctor to get better he decided to expand his professional

activities to include writing about health topics.
