Guest guest Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 What's Killing You and What to do About It! July 30, 2006 CRUSADOR Editor Greg Ciola interviews biochemical inventor and disease researcher Dr. Donald Monus. Dr. Donald Monus has spent the past twenty years researching the cause of countless diseases while developing numerous natural compounds to control them. His work has been referenced in medical journals and has earned him a place in the international publication of Who's Who in America. Dr. Monus earned a degree in Naturopathy and Ph.D. in 1998. His honorary Ph.D. was granted from the Elizabeth Glazer Science Foundation where he worked under grants from Pediatrics AIDS Foundation in 1996 doing AIDS research as a virologist. Without his research and the all-natural compounds he has invented through The Monus Research Foundation, hundreds of volunteers suffering from degenerative diseases would have lost hope in their future. Dr. Monus stands out as a leader in his field. His vast wealth of knowledge will help you understand the intricate process of disease and by implementing the protocols he outlines, help you recover from your illness. In 2004 he co-authored the book " What's Killing You and What To Do About It " with David Hamilton, a patient that was cured of his cancer by following through on Dr. Monus' protocols. The following interview conducted by editor, Greg Ciola is based around Dr. Monus' new book and his research. Greg: Dr. Monus, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to allow me to interview you. Can you begin by giving our readers a brief background of your history and how you got involved in this field of work? Dr. Monus: Basically, Greg, I would trace my start to when I was a young child and my mother died of cancer. It was pretty traumatic to watch her die from breast cancer right before my eyes and to see the type of treatments they had in those days. In the early 60s radiation wasn't perfected and so, when she received some of these treatments I saw the degradation. I said to myself, " They can develop nuclear weapons, they've got aircraft that can fly at the speed of sound, but they really don't have much in the way of helping people with this type of disease. " After I came back from Vietnam, I went off to college on the GI bill and started studying in the med/lab technician field. That wasn't satisfying enough so I started studying more. I started studying medicine from the traditional orthodox view through chemistry, biochemistry, immunology, etc. and I realized it wasn't complete enough. It wasn't very pretty to see people just waste away and lose their hair on chemotherapy. So I said to myself: " This is not the right way to go here. " From there, I decided to go to Naturopathic school where I learned different techniques on how to heal the body. After this I decided to start doing deeper research into the causes of disease and eventually started studying plants and how plants affected disease, especially antiviral plants. I started noticing that certain plants had a profound effect on disease and could actually destroy viruses. That was very interesting to find out. We raised some fish (tilapia) and infected them with disease in order to watch cancer grow on them. Then, through powders and liquids, we would put these plants into their mouths and noticed that their tumors would start to shrink away, their cancers would get better and they would survive. I said to myself: " If this can be done with fish, this can be done with humans too. " Then we found some volunteers who were diagnosed with terminal illnesses and we taught them how to use these types of different botanicals. In some cases, the individuals could turn around. However, other more advanced cases could not be helped. There are many different techniques that can be used. Plants can be used, bioactive frequencies can be used, and prayer can and should always be used. I was just shocked that these things, which are so simple and anecdotal, would work and the medical community didn't embrace them. Of course, from there we began talking to medical doctors and saying: " Why don't you use these techniques? " They would say, " They are not AMA approved, there is not enough research behind it, there is not enough science behind it. " And I said, " What about flexibility, are you allowed to do it? " I talked to several medical doctors and they said if they started using these techniques without using the orthodox protocols, it was very likely they would have their license pulled. Here we've come to a dilemma. How do we help people when we're not really allowed to help people? As things went on we began to learn more and more about what plants you could use, what God gave us out there in the natural pharmacy working on these different types of degenerative diseases. Greg: That eventually led you to start the Monus Research Foundation isn't that correct? Dr. Monus: Yes, that's correct. We first began working with people that had Multiple Sclerosis (MS). We realized that MS comes from multiple factors. After studying the histology and hematology of individuals that had MS, we found in every case that parasites, viruses and bacteria were involved. What we did was teach certain individuals how to use antibacterial plants, antiviral plants, virucidal plants, and anti-parasitic plants. Upon going through a short regimen, we noticed they improved. We even noticed that the disease stopped neurological damage that was done from the different bacteria, viruses, and parasites gnawing on the nerve endings and the myelin sheath. When we saw this, we realized that we had something and that the treatments of orthodox medicine may not be addressing the situation properly. That is the problem with most diseases today. They are being symptomatically-treated. I guess that is for profit motive. Greg: It's interesting that you link viruses, bacteria, and parasites to MS. I notice in the new book that you've just had published, " What's Killing You and What To Do About It! " that you also link these microorganisms to all diseases. Is that correct? Dr. Monus: Most disease is linked to viruses, bacteria and parasites. We like to say, " Where does disease come from? " Being a Christian scientist, I look at it as a result of the fall of man – genetic degradation. But if I were to tell that to orthodox scientists, they wouldn't understand what I was talking about. So, instead, I discuss things that they do understand – that the causes of disease come from what I call " foreign biological terrain " (viruses, bacteria, parasites, funguses, mutations, toxins, and improper nutrient uptake). Greg: When you talk about MS, what role does heavy metal toxicity play? I've heard some reports that mercury strips away the myelin sheath from the nerves. Are you finding that heavy metals and mercury are a problem with MS and some of these other neurological diseases too? Dr. Monus: Heavy metals and mercury do have a negative impact on the myelin sheath and nervous system. Toxins such as lead, mercury, cadmium, chlorine etc…can lead to disease. I noticed that most of the MS cases I dealt with were greatly affected by parasites, viruses, and bacteria. Another contributing factor is mercury from amalgam fillings. Environmental mercury from batteries and coal burning also contribute to mercury toxicity. That mercury goes into the water and gets into the fish and into our bodies. I recommend a blend of apple cider vinegar mixed with some green foods to help chelate heavy metals, such as mercury, out of the body. Where MS is concerned, metals play an important role but it is not as powerful as the parasites, viruses, and bacteria. Greg: Where are these different viruses, parasites, and bacteria coming from? Is it happening internally from a poor diet or is it something coming from the outside? Dr. Monus: Well, if the body is unhealthy it's kind of like an old tree. Worms can rot an old tree. The body is pretty much the same way. But, where are the parasites coming from? Parasites can come from a variety of sources (dirty salads in restaurants, unclean meats, impure water, pets, etc.). We also have to consider what parasites are. Parasites are things that require a host. So, if you have viruses, and they require a host, are they not a parasite? Greg: One of the first things that you do at your research institute is to check the blood of your patients. In your new book you've stated that you can usually tell what's wrong with someone in a matter of minutes just by looking at their blood. Is that true? Dr. Monus: Yes, that's basically true. It all depends on the type of microscope that you have. There are microscopes today that have extremely high magnification. The blood can reveal a great deal of information about your health, if you know how to read it properly. Greg: So, when you test somebody's blood, what is it that you're looking for and what is it that you normally find? Dr. Monus: We always see a parasitical element with disease, either a virus, a parasite or both. We also see a bacterial combination of all three. Funguses are in there, too. Then, we also see how the cells are damaged from free radical damage. When I read the blood through a high powered microscope, I can see the damage to the red blood cells. Enhancing the magnification can reveal even more information in the blood. Greg: Why doesn't mainstream medicine look at blood like this? Dr. Monus: Mainstream medicine has the ability to use this technique when testing blood and does so at different institutions. But, mainstream medicine is a business. Since it is a business a pharmaceutical company would rather just treat the symptoms and take a monthly profit instead of getting down to the root cause and curing it. There's no doubt about it - mainstream medicine is money-driven. Greg: In your book you say that cancer is a virus. Can you expound on this a little more? Dr. Monus: We discovered at least one virus associated with almost every case of cancer we diagnosed at our Foundation. The reason cancer has not been cured on the full scale is the fact that cancer has multiple types of viruses associated with it. There's a BX virus, which Raymond Rife discovered back in the 1930s. There's a BY virus. There's a cryptomyces. Then there are hybrid Simian 40s. There are hybrid Simian 40s with HSV. When these parasites, which are viruses, combine together to survive, they form different types of scenarios of hybrid type viruses. These types of viruses are very difficult to destroy. One medicine will destroy one type of virus. That same medicine won't destroy another type of virus. Let's say, for instance, that you're talking about a hybrid between a Herpes virus and a BY virus. Well, how do you destroy that without damaging the body? That's the secret in destroying cancer. As soon as they get all the different ways of destroying the viruses without damaging the body, but just destroying the antagonist, cancer will be cured. That's what's holding up the whole show – the very difficult task of using the right medicine for the right virus. That's what all the best researchers in the world are working on. Greg: I'm sure you're familiar with Hulda Clark and her work. In her books she says that the answer to curing all cancer is in destroying the parasites in the body. She's had quite a bit of success. What do you think about her work and is it similar to what you're talking about? Dr. Monus: I've read some of Hulda Clark's books and I'm not quite clear on whether she places viruses in the category of parasites like Entero parasites that she speaks of. We felt that she was a little vague on understanding how cancer really works. We discovered by looking at cancer and studying it for hours and hours underneath microscopes that parasites metastasized the cancer. In other words, they carry the virus with them and as they wiggle off through the bloodstream or pass through tissue, they deposit the viruses along the way. I would not say that a parasite that has no cancer virus in it causes cancer. I would say that it is a vehicle at enhancing cancer throughout the body. Greg: I know that there has been a lot of research done on oxygen and its role in the body. Guys like Otto Warburg believed that cancer was a fermentation process of the cells that was caused by oxygen levels being low. What's the difference between your research and Otto Warburg's? Dr. Monus: Otto saw the secondary and tertiary effects of what happens after the virus places its genetic material on the genome and abrogates the cell. There are three different types of DNA. There's genetic DNA, there's nucleosome DNA, and there's cellular DNA. How the virus plants its DNA on the cell after a while causes these fermentation processes. Of course, low oxygen assists this virus to proliferate throughout the body. So Otto was on track but he was only looking at one aspect. When you construct a building, you build the foundation first, not the roof. Likewise, in a disease, you must go to the root of the problem. From there, you have to take the necessary steps to cure the problem. One step to consider is to change the biological terrain in order to improve cellular respiration. You can either help or hurt the body with food, herbs, chemotherapy, and radiation. I think using oxygen to help the body to fight disease is a good method. Otto was right about increasing oxygenation after you destroyed the virus (as long as the virus hasn't damaged too many cells). Greg: Do you have a specific set of protocols that you follow? Dr. Monus: I have a simple technology that I follow which I have taught to other physicians. It's called D-C-N technology. D-C-N represents Destroy Pathogen – Clean Out Pathogen – Nutrify the Body. First of all, when you're trying to help the body, it's important to understand the initial condition of the body. Some people are more " toxic " than others. There are some people who are near death and others that are not so close. A person who is close to death may not be able to tolerate certain remedies. You've got to be extremely careful. It's important to always consult and work with a medical doctor who has great experience in this. There are a lot of medical doctors out there who claim they have great experience in this and they don't. That's the sad part. There are also a lot of Naturopaths out there who claim they know what they're doing and they don't. Healing the body is an art which is perfected through study and hands- on experience. Why would you want to nutrify the body when you're trying to destroy the pathogen? A lot of people start dumping a ton of vitamins on you when you have cancer and they say, " Oh, this is going to help your immune system. " Well, you're also helping the virus or the parasite and you're making them stronger. Why would you want to make them stronger? First you destroy, then you clean, and then you nutrify. That is the basic secret on healing. We have been very successful with this. Nine out of ten can be helped. Some patients can be their own worst enemy. If people choose to partially follow natural medicine, the situation can backfire. In other words, some individuals may only apply 10% of what they need to do in order to regain their health. If these individuals don't get well, while they tell their families and friends that they are doing natural medicine, they could give natural medicine a bad name. It is important to be extremely compliant and follow very strict guidelines. God did not make mistakes - man did. The industrialization of our food supply in the 20th century (the introduction of pesticides, GMO's processed foods) has been our biggest obstacle to overcome. We need to ban together to say " no " to these corrupt systems and say " yes " to healing, whole foods. Greg: What surgeries do you feel are necessary? Many surgeries are nothing more than mutilations. People get diagnosed with cancer and a surgeon wants to go in and start cutting out body parts as if we're built with a bunch of spare parts. Dr. Monus: One of the most powerful tools orthodox medicine has is surgery and there are some surgeons out there that are just fantastic. I would say there are God's surgeons and there are Satan's surgeons; how's that for a powerful statement? Let me give you an example. A woman is diagnosed with breast cancer at a very early stage. She has a lump in her breast. The options are to remove the lump, which is the preferred option or, before choosing to remove the lump, take some herbal antiviral agents in order to go after the virus (es) and parasites. You may still go ahead and do the surgery after herbal treatment. That is a very sound method on trying to heal the body. Removal of the breast is not necessary in many cases. There are potentially serious side effects from radiation, Tamoxifen and chemotherapy. You see, you can fix one thing and ruin another. To fix the body, without damaging something, is the secret in winning in disease. Extensive use of chemotherapy lowers the immune system – what they call the immune recognition response capability. Radiation, chemotherapy, and antibiotics compromise the immune response. I've never seen anyone do well after they've had many courses of radiation, chemotherapy or antibiotics. It can take several years for the body to recover after using these approaches. Greg: Do you believe in chemotherapy and radiation at all? Dr. Monus: In a very, very limited scale. Let's say we have an inoperable tumor inside the hippocampus. If it's not responding to herbal treatments or even conventional chemotherapy and it's starting to adversely affect the individual, then what can he do? If you operate, you could do more damage cutting through the brain to get to the tumor. But we believe maybe he's in a " one zap " type scenario where you hit the tumor and it shrinks and allows the person to function. Sometimes that works very well. There are some good chemotherapy agents out there for lymphoma right now but Naturopathic medicine also has very high quality capabilities of destroying lymphoma. As a matter of fact, naturopaths have a greater success rate than the orthodox medical community. The next book that I write is going to be for the clinician, the doctor, and the oncologist so that they can follow certain acceptable protocols. They will be able to treat people without having their hair fall out or other adverse side effects. Greg: When you talk about cutting out a lump, the big concern is that you'll spread the cancer. When the doctors go in and start poking and prodding at a tumor, there's a risk that the contents of the tumor could leak out and spread throughout the body. Don't you think that Naturopathic methods are more effective at shrinking tumors than having them cut out? Dr. Monus: There are some very good methods that can actually help shrink tumors. As I mentioned earlier, the first thing that you should do is take some antiviral, anti-parasitical herbal chemotherapy agents. Each case is different though. You don't really know what you're dealing with. Some cases are significantly advanced, some aren't. But usually the best method I have seen work in humans is that you do some antiviral work with some powerful herbs that can instantly destroy the cancer virus (you can see this happen if you watch it underneath the microscope). You use those methods to quell the virus, or put it into remission, so that it's not spreading all over the whole body. Then you go ahead and do the surgery and you come back and do some more antiviral work with herbs. What are herbs? They're just chemicals in raw form. We have therapies where you don't lose your hair or get excessively nauseous (powerful herbs can make you a little nauseous). Administered correctly, herbal treatments are a safe form of therapy whereas orthodox chemotherapy can be quite devastating. One is done with herbs and the other is done with synthetic chemicals. It is important to emphasize the difference between the two. Greg: You're the first person I've ever heard use the word " herbal chemotherapy " . Obviously, that's not something that's readily available. Are you one of the only people using this approach? Dr. Monus: No. There are different physicians out there using it. I'm the one who invented and coined the term, herbal chemotherapy. Greg: Are you at liberty to discuss any of the different herbs that have these properties that you're referring to? Dr. Monus: Oh absolutely. My heart is in trying to help people out. You have to know what type of cancer you're fighting. Are we fighting BX virus, BY virus, Simian 40, or are we fighting a hybrid? Then you have to go from there in understanding what herbs are effective on these different viral characters, parasitic elements, and fungal elements. Caprylic acid is an effective treatment used throughout the health industry for people who have fungus and Candida. Let's say for instance you have an aggravating scenario within the body where caprylic acid is just not working. Then, you step up to a compound known as Vibac, which is a very powerful anti-fungal. It's a quadra- spectrum compound. The orthodox world doesn't have a remedy like this. Vibac has the ability to destroy parasites, funguses, bacteria, and viruses all in the same shot without doing any damage to the body other than maybe a slight " die off " from yeast or bacteria in the colon. While you are destroying the pathogens in the colon, it is critical that you balance the gut flora by adding beneficial organisms. Consequently, a large part of my protocol includes probiotics. In order to further improve digestion, I also recommend digestive enzymes. Then there's the old Hulda Clark stand-by, which actually came from Hanna Kroeger. It's the black walnut, wormwood and cloves. Black walnut is an anti-fungal, which can also help regulate the thyroid. There's a lot of it out there being sold. You can go to a health food store and pull it off the shelf and just drink the whole bottle and it's not going to do anything for you. That's the sad part about it. Black walnut has to be picked at a certain time of the year. It has to be preserved. It has to be made under a very special method. It's not an easy herbal remedy to make and keep fresh. Basically, you have to do it nearly to pharmaceutical standards. I'd say there are maybe two or three people in the entire world that know how to make this remedy. That's it! Greg: One of the things that you do through your research Foundation is extract and put together some of these compounds that you're talking about, correct? Dr. Monus: Basically, my focus is to study the plants, use them on the different types of viruses and cancer, and then customize them for the individuals. Catechu is another very high quality product we work with. We call it Ultra Catechu. Ultra Catechu is one of the best anti-parasitic agents known to Naturopathic medicine. It's used very successfully in colon, pancreatic and liver cancer. Virout is another very powerful virucidal agent that's made from plants. It's able to destroy the Herpes virus, which hybridizes with other viruses like the BY virus. You have to use a combination of herbs to destroy these viruses. Viruses are very difficult to destroy. They are so resilient because of their methods of planting their genetic material on the human genome. Greg: When you talk about identifying the specific viruses in the blood to effectively do battle against them, how would someone even go about doing that? Dr. Monus: Since you're in charge of your health, not your physician, you should connect with other highly qualified health practitioners who also think outside of the box. For example, find a highly qualified pathologist or research center to consult with. If society as a whole keeps limiting choices in heath care, cancer will never be cured. If you're thinking outside the box, you'll have more of a chance to help millions of people from this dreaded disease. Another great research center in my area is the Tampa Bay Research Center. The type of research that private individuals are doing is what's really going to make the difference. Pharmaceutical companies fund a lot of research for their own agenda. What we've learned, you could never learn at Harvard. Greg: So, once someone gets their pathology back and they determine a specific virus or viruses in their blood, what would the next step be? Dr. Monus: We have to then look at what tools we have available in the natural world to fight the cancer. If there aren't herbs to fight these viruses, then we have to switch gears and move into different technologies. What we do here at our Foundation is we take the virus, try to find its " mortal oscillatory rate " , and we send a frequency to it and destroy it. Greg: Are there many people in the U.S. who are familiar with this technique? Dr. Monus: Some universities are doing some studies. The University of Southern California is quite advanced and has a tremendous knowledge bank. NYU has some information. The Germans are really moving ahead on this type of technology. I think the Germans are probably the most advanced right now. We're losing the lead here in the U.S. because inventors are not being rewarded. There are no incentives for them. To work on these things takes time and unfortunately, most doctors and researchers are money driven. Some people are in it for the money and some are in it for the knowledge. I was always in it for the knowledge. Greg: Your research institute is open to the public, correct? Dr. Monus: Yes. We like you to make an appointment and be referred to us by a medical doctor. This covers us by the laws. Yes, we're open to teach you what you want to know. We're still allowed to do that. Freedom of speech is supposedly still allowed in the U.S. Greg: Let me pick up on diet a little bit. Are there things that feed viruses, parasites, bacteria, and funguses in the body? Dr. Monus: Diet plays a great role in healing the body and energizing the cell. One of the things I can tell people right now is never eat anything that comes out of a microwave. Second of all, you need to cut off all sugar. Sugar feeds cancer like throwing gas on a fire. Pork does it very much also. Pork broth is a great medium to grow cancer cells in a petri dish. Keeping the body on the slightly alkaline side is also better than acidic. We have to live the way we're designed. What's happened to the human race is pathetic. We work so hard that we don't even have time to nutrify our bodies anymore. We shouldn't just look at eating as something to fill our belly. Eating the proper foods for the body is important. It's like your car. If you're putting diesel fuel in a car that's supposed to run on gasoline it's just going to go down the road choking and smoking. I tell people to go back to living on an " Adam and Eve " (whole food) diet. Adam and Eve were fortunate enough to never have had to experience our processed foods! Food should be cooked from scratch. Greg: In your book, you made a statement that really stuck out. You said that people who eat out at restaurants most of the time had twice the incidence of cancer compared to people who eat at home. What's the difference between eating out and eating at home? Dr. Monus: Yes, this statement is true. In a restaurant, you simply don't know what you're getting. It is always much better to eat home cooked meals because you have much more control over the quality of food you're preparing. Greg: You also talk in your book about the environmental factors in disease. You just mentioned microwaves, but you also get into other electronic devices like alarm clocks, computers, cell phones, etc… that interfere with the body, cause imbalances and lead to disease. Can you expound on this a little more? Dr. Monus: Electro-Motive Force is a serious problem. What we have discovered is that when you're next to an item that's putting out a lot of EMF, it actually stuns the immune system and shuts it right down. When you're looking underneath the microscope, you can see the T-Cells stop firing off interferon.. Just playing around by taking little gadgets and putting it next to a slide to watch what happens is truly amazing. Electro-Motive Force has a definite role in disease. I've talked to 23 people already this year who have developed growths in the back of their ear from cell phones. They say, " How can you prove that's from a cell phone? " Well, I say, " There's your antenna, that's where your growth is. " It's all about frequencies and everything gives off frequency. Some frequencies are destructive to humans. We have all kinds of capabilities with frequencies. You can control people's minds, their moods, you can abrogate their DNA; it just goes on and on. Greg: Cell phones are a big concern for sure. Some of the new research I have seen on cell phones is scary. Should we simply stop using cell phones? Dr. Monus: There are good cell phones out there. You can have these extensions where the apparatus is not next to your ear. You also have certain cell phones that you can hold away from your head. It's when it's placed right next to the DNA that it's easily abrogated. Greg: What about some of these devices being marketed that you can put on cell phones to block the bad frequencies? Dr. Monus: Beware. Some of them have literally no effect at all. Greg: Are you finding similarities with all these different diseases like Alzheimer's, Herpes, AIDS, etc.? Do you use the same approach with these illnesses – testing the blood to identify the specific virus or viruses? Dr. Monus: That's exactly right. It's always an antagonist that causes the problem or multiple antagonists in multiple scenarios. It basically comes down to Pathogen – Diet – Mental Outlook. Greg: And so your protocols for treatment, following up again on your D-C-N method, are basically the same? Dr. Monus: Yes. It's a very successful method. Nine out of ten is the record. Sometimes it's gone too far. You can't save everybody. The way we look at disease has to be changed in the medical schools. The only way that's going to be done is through public awareness and education. Greg: What about pharmaceutical drugs? Is there a place for them in your opinion? Dr. Monus: Well, not everybody is as advanced as we are in working with botanicals and it's not mainstream protocol. Let's say for example you had necrotic streptococci and you had a choice of having your arm cut off or taking some antibiotics. I think it would probably be wise to use an antibiotic to get this under control. Let's not be overzealous. Pharmaceuticals have some attributes. There are some pharmaceuticals that are beneficial to mankind, but I find that the natural medicines are far superior in most cases and they should be used first. When they don't work you should look at pharmaceuticals. Greg: You also address the importance of prayer and faith in your new book. You say that you've personally seen that be very effective. Dr. Monus: I think prayer can help all those who believe it will help them. If there are people out there who reject you praying for them, then don't pray for them. People that pray usually have better results, not all the time but most of the time. It is important to use prayer in conjunction with a balanced lifestyle (choosing organic, whole foods, exercise etc…). Greg: Well, Dr. Monus, I really appreciate your time and the words of wisdom you have shared with our readers. I know your research can go a long way in helping to benefit mankind. Dr. Monus: Thank you Greg. I hope your readers are blessed by this interview. Dr. Monus can be reach at the Monus Research Foundation by calling 727-585-2879.
