Tarun 6 Report post Posted November 8, 2001 Important natural remedies for anthrax et al - Nina Moliver NMP Wednesday, October 31, 2001 7:29 AM [NotMyPresident] FW: Health info Martha R Herbert [herbert@helix.mgh.harvard.edu] Wednesday, October 31, 2001 6:45 AM herbert@helix.mgh.harvard.edu FW: Health info Tuesday, October 23, 2001 1:00 PM Health info I am passing this on to those of you I know to be diet conscious, as well as those of you in areas that are affected by Anthrax scares. I send it in the spirit of good health. NATURAL RESCUE REMEDIES (for anthrax, nerve gas, etc.) Since anthrax is the most feared toxin it will be addressed first. The Garlic Information Center in Britain indicates that deadly anthrax is most susceptible to garlic. Garlic is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that even blocks toxin production by germs. [Journal Nutrition, March 2001] Before vaccines were developed against polio, garlic was used successfully as a prophylactic. In one test garlic was found to be a more potent antibiotic than penicillin, ampicillin, doxycycline, streptomycin and cephalexin, some of the very same antibiotic drugs used in the treatment of anthrax. Garlic was found to be effective against nine strains of E.coli, Staph and other bugs. [Fitoterapia, Volume 5, 1984] Freshly cut cloves of garlic or garlic powder may be beneficial. The antibiotic activity of one milligram of allicin, the active ingredient in garlic, equals 15 units of penicillin. [Koch and Lawson, Garlic: The Science and Therapeutic Application, 2nd edition, Williams & Wilkins, Baltimore 1996] Garlic capsules that certify their allicin content are preferred and may provide 5-10 milligrams of allicin, which is equivalent to 75-150 units of penicillin. The anthrax bacterium's toxicity emanates from its ability to kill macrophage cells which are part of the immune system. Studies have shown that sulfur-bearing antioxidants (alpha lipoic acid, N-acetylcysteine, taurine) and vitamin C, which elevate levels of glutathione, a natural antioxidant within the body, counters the toxicity produced by anthrax. [Molecular Medicine, November 1994; Immunopharmacology, January 2000; Applied Environmental Microbiology, May 1979] The above sulfur compounds can be obtained from health food stores and taken in doses ranging from 100-500 mg. Vitamin C should be the buffered alkaline form (mineral ascorbates) ratherthan the acidic form (ascorbic acid) and should be combined with bioflavonoids which prolong vitamin C's action in the blood circulation. The powdered form of vitamin C is recommended to achieve optimal dosing. A tablespoon of vitamin C powder (about 10,000 mgs) can be added to juice. Good products are Twinlab's Super Ascorbate C powder and Alacer's powdered vitamin C. A great sulfur Is MSM. I have used it for taking out swelling and pain almost instantly from everything from oral surgery to bee stings, spider bites (it seems to neutralize the venom) to poison oak/ivy, to chicken pox, herpes cold sores, and in lotion for burns, skin conditions. It enhances vitamins and escorts toxins out of the body. I took it in small amounts at first, like a pinch of salt, and now take one pill or capsule a day. The reason for this is that if it starts taking too much of the toxins out at a time it can make your heart beat fast or possibly have a reaction which some people call allergic. For me, a little is best. (You can call Rich Distributing for MSM at great prices, toll free: 877-245-5742 for healing products in Oregon). Melatonin, a sleep-inducing hormone available at most health food stores, has been shown to help prevent lethal toxins from anthrax exposure. [Cell Biology Toxicology, Volume 16, 2000]. It could be taken at bedtime in doses ranging from 5-20 mg. Melatonin boosts glutathione levels during sleep. Of additional interest, one of the methods by which mustard gas works is its ability to bring about cell death by depleting cell levels of glutathione. [Medicine Journal, April 9, 2001] So glutathione is also an antidote for mustard gas poisoning. Virtually all bacteria, viruses and fungi depend upon iron as a growth factor. [iron & Your Health, T.F. Emery, CRC Press, 1991] Iron-chelating (removing) drugs and antibiotics (Adriamycin, Vancomycin, others) are effective against pathogens. The plague (Yersinia pestis), botulism, smallpox and anthrax could all be potentially treated with non-prescription metal-binding chelators. For example, iron removal retards the growth of the plague. [Medical Hypotheses, January 1998] The biological activity of the botulinum toxin depends upon iron, and metal chelators may be beneficial [infection Immunology, October 1989, Toxicon, July, 1997]. Phytic acid (IP6), derived as an extract from rice bran, is the most potent natural iron chelator and has strong antibiotic and antioxidant action. [Free Radical Biology Medicine, Volume 8, 1990; Journal Biological Chemistry, August 25, 1987] IP6 has been found to have similar iron-chelating properties as desferrioxamine, a drug commonly used to kill germs, tumor cells or to remove undesirable minerals from the body. [biochemistry Journal, September 15, 199! 3] IP6 rice bran extract (2000-4000 mg) should be taken in between meals with filtered or bottled water only (no juice). The antibacterial, antiseptic action of plant oils has been described in recent medical literature and may be helpful in fighting biological toxins. [Journal Applied Microbiology, Volume 88, 2000] A potent natural antibiotic, more powerful than many prescription antibiotics, is oil of oregano. One study showed that oregano completely inhibited the growth of 25 germs such as Staphylococcus aureas, Escherichia coli, Yersinia enterocolitica and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [Journal Food Protection, July 2001] Oregano has been shown to be effective in eradicating intestinal parasites in humans. [Phytotherapy Research, May 2001] Wild oregano, which is quite different from the variety on most kitchen spice racks, has over 50 antibacterial compounds. Just one part wild oregano oil in 4000 dilution sterilizes contaminated water. [London Times, May 8, 2001] Oregano powder from whole leaf oregano is available as OregamaxTM capsules (North American Herb & Spice Co.). A spectacular development in natural antibiotic therapy is the manufacture of oregano powder from 100% pure oregano oil, producing one of the most potent antibiotics known. It has recently become available under the trade name OregacinTM (North American Herb & Spice Co.). It costs about $1 per pill, but this is a far cry from the $16 per pill for Vancomycin, known as most potent prescription antibiotic. Oregano oil can also kill toenail fungus and allows nails to grow back in normally and release that awful foot smell and yellow thick skin. Nature also provides nerve gas antitoxins. Nerve gas interrupts the normal transmission of nerve impulses by altering levels of acetycholinesterase, the enzyme that degrades the nerve transmitter acetycholine. Huper zine A, a derivative of Chinese club moss, has been suggested as a pre-treatment against nerve gases. [Annals Pharmacology France, January 2001] The Walter Reed Army Institute of Research conducted studies which revealed that Huperzine A protects against nerve gas poisoning in a superior manner to physostigmine, a long-standing anti-nerve toxin.drug. [Defense Technical Information Center Review, Volume 2, December 1996] Huperzine A is available as a food supplement at most health food stores. Suggested dosage is 150 mcg per day. Pretreatment is advised prior to nerve gas exposure. Summary The threat of biological warfare is real and concern over preparedness of the civilian population and medical professionals is growing. There is virtually no practical way that vaccines, antibiotics or other treatment can be delivered to frightened populace in a timely manner during a crisis. The current strategy of having an unprotected citizenry travel to physicians' offices or hospitals to receive prophylactic care or treatment is unfeasible. The public must be armed with preventive or therapeutic agents in their vehicles, homes and workplace. Natural antibiotics and antitoxins are well documented in medical literature, but overlooked by health authorities. These antidotes are readily available for public to acquire and place in emergency biological response kit.

Tarun 6 Report post Posted November 11, 2001 Some gurus have declared that garlic contains 26 kinds of poisons and ergo whould not be ingested, at least not by bhaktas, not even medicinally. But isn't this similar to BhImasena's situation? One poison counteracts another, or not? If u want defense, you call in defenders, not pushovers. Am I right or in total illusion? I hardly use garlic myself, but I did years ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Warriors not pacifists! BB not...well,I'm sure you get the idea. This is the material world and it ain't pretty, nor will it ever become heaven on earth. valaya RR [This message has been edited by valaya (edited 11-11-2001).] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tarun 6 Report post Posted November 14, 2001 Valaya: According to Manu's Law, before BB types can use their revered hi-tech defense sans severe negative reaction, they 1st have to prove 2 things: 1) whether Bushman is really our elected president. 2) whether Bin Laden had anything to do with WTC 9/11 at all. Id est, whether BL either a) pulled it off himself b) pulled it off w/o CIA &/or w/o Mosad cooperation c) whether we simply let it happen so we could later use it as an excuse a la Pearl Harbor mode In addition, BB would have to explain why NYFD & NYPD heard bombs going off w/i WTC 9/11 long after both planes had wedged themselves w/i top floors. Can BB prove any of the above? Fact: The planes alone did NOT bring down WTC. Besides BB's blind faith in Bushover, what can he show? Actually the whole thing is susamugra-vikarmik. Not just ugra; not just samugra; su-sam-ugra. Ugly, vicious, unauthorized tamoguN from head to toe. BB may be in Vraj now. He can inquire from his zixa-guru what susamugra means. Anthrax sources have been left 'unknown' though known, so we may think our leaders are not unreasonably knee-jerkingly blaming sans proof. Another hoax. Were you alive during Vietnam War? First Kaliyuga TV War. Citizens were allowed to watch our soldiers commit atrocities. That darshan convinced even HAWKs 10 times tougher than BB could ever dream of to think & withdraw. A Picture's Worth 1,000 Words. Or in this case, 1,000 lives. Tangential point: PANDavas had TV 5,000 yrs ago at Indraprastha. PANDavas had nothing to hide. Bushwick has so much to hide it's pathetic to a putrid degree. On Sept 4, 1972 at New VRndAvan PrabhupAd gave Carmen nicknamed "Carmi" the initiated name naiSkarmI dd, pronounced "Nice Karmi". Everyone laughed. Ask naiSkarmI dd what her name means. Then explain it to BB Rebozo Randomji. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tarun 6 Report post Posted June 10, 2002 Natural Health Tip of Day - Thursday June 6, 2002 Plants For Fresh Air Most green house plants will clean up a variety of pollutants in your home or office. Spider plants and heartleaf philodendron are good at removing formaldehyde from your air (from carpeting, fiberboard, plywood, resins, and natural gas). Also effective at this are azaleas, mother-in-law's tongue, poinsettias, and ficus. English ivy, marginata, and golden pothos combat benzene (found in tobacco smoke, synthetic fibers, plastics, and detergents). Peace lilies and dragon trees can clear up TCE (from paints, varnishes, and wood finishes). So surround yourself with these plants and others for healthier air where you live.

Tarun 6 Report post Posted July 27, 2002 Natural Health Tip of the Day - Monday July 22, 2002 Garlic- Fresh Or Pills? There is some debate over whether garlic capsules are as effective as fresh, raw garlic for its antibacterial, antiviral and anti-fungal effects. In general, take one capsule a day that provides 4,000 micrograms of allicin a day, or eat one large clove (remember, one bulb of garlic is a rosette of many cloves) daily of uncooked, chopped garlic sprinkled on other food, or juiced with other vegetables.
