Dusty Books From The Past Worth Seeking Out

As some know, I enjoy books and on a variety of topics. I was looking through my library last night and found several books that I consider treasures but they are not well circulated. I thought I would share the list and give a brief description. Maybe you will seek them out and include them in your library.

Healing Back Pain By Jon Sarno

I think this book is worthy of this list because of how Sarno shows how the mind is a key player in ones own health including pain. We tend to blame this or that and look for outside influences to 'cure' but in reality much of what ails us is in our mind/stress. Everyone is different and handles environment differently. learning how to cope with ones own mind might be the start to any healing process.

The Curse of Louis Pasteur, Why Medicine is not Healing a Diseased World By Nancy Appleton 1999

Nancy gives a great history of how western medicine got to the place it is and why it is failing. It is Nancy'spremise that we blame disease on 'germs'. When in reality we need to point the finger inward. We are responsible for our own health. Great history with a solid lesson that we all need to hear and understand. Nancy has other great books worthy of reading and placing in your library.

The Science of Psychic Healing by Yogi Ramachalka 1934.

Its been on my shelf for many years.. I admit I have not read the entire book but I think it has something to say about space and movement that is worthy of discussion when dealing with ones health. I used one of the techniques to move molecules (as he describes) and it worked. If anyone has completed this book and would like to post a more complete review please do so.

Health From The Sea and Soil 1962 by Charles Ahlson

Great read, one aspect worth noting, he shows/ documents how simple sea water can be life giving. A spoonful per day. Any one living near the ocean should pick this book up and utilize his inexpensive protocols for health and longevity.

Heliotherapy by A. Rollier 1923

The book documents specific protocols on how to use the sun for healing.  He describes a hormonal response that is deeper than the tradition concept of the sun and vitamin D.

Your Own Perfect Medicine by Martha Christy 1994 and Water of Life by Armstrong 1920's I think. Both books teach how important urine therapy is and will make a clear case for all to understand the topic and use it as needed. Armstrong gives case studies from a historical perspective and Christy gives an up to date version that has more 'science' discussion on the subject.

Seawater – A Safe Blood Plasma Substitute?

I have read a book that discusses sea water diluted in water to be used every day to great benefit.  hers is an interesting article i found on a similar topic;

 

Diluted seawater contains almost the same concentration of minerals and trace elements as blood plasma, and its sodium content matches that of blood. It has been used successfully in animal tests as a blood transfusion substitute, but human trials are long overdue.

Testing and efficacy

Below is a note from a customer and a post on random test data from this year. As most know, we do supply random test data on our website. The data does not pertain to any one jar and is for informational purposes only. I am tardy in keeping this list of data current. I'll will go sit in the corner for the next hour and promise to do a better job keeping this list updated. The Test data never changes as long as the lab/technician is constant. I don't put much faith into test data other than general information as I fully understand that labs and technicians can make a difference in a number, a number does not mean efficacy, and there are thousands of other molecular structures not discussed and not understood in these products.

The note from Diane below shows efficacy. It is the same type of efficacy identified through science earlier in the 20th century and it show the same type of results reported when we had our products tested using the traditional Vitamin D testing standard Rat Bio Assay. This type of test does not parallel counting molecules but rather the efficacy of Vitamin D as it relates to calcium absorption. This is real testing compared to molecule counting which is... well, i don't think it has deep meaning. I understand this view is contrary to typical societal view.

 

Diane J, Atlanta Georgia , January 23, 2013 at 3:09 PM | 

My 14-year-old granddaughter is a gymnast and competes at a very high level. At a practice at the gym she fell from the uneven bars and broke her elbow. Her parents and three doctors decided surgically inserting a screw to hold the elbow together was the only thing that would make her arm strong enough for her to return to such a high level of competition. And so it was done. At a five-week check up with the surgeon, an X-ray showed that the screw had come out and the elbow had not healed. The doctor was beside himself and asked the parents to get a second opinion, because the only thing he knew to do at that point was to surgically put a plate in her elbow. An appointment was made to see another doctor in 5 days. I had just received our first order of Butter Oil/Fermented Cod Liver Oil capsules from Green Pasture the day they were told her elbow had not healed. I took them to her immediately and suggested at least 6 per day. When the second-opinion surgeon examined her arm after 5 days of BO/CLO, he told her the arm was healed and she could go do whatever she wanted, limited only by whatever hurts. She immediately went to the gym and experienced no pain during her light workout. All that is left to do is remove the screw! Yea Green Pasture!

 

These results are 5 random  FCLO lots from this year. We post random test data on our web site.. It has been awhile since I have done this but will do this today.

CAN VITAMIN D SUPPLEMENTS DEPLETE VITAMIN K?

Molecular isolates.....just does not seem right...too many unknowns

 

 

 

When you take vitamin supplements, they can interfere with the levels of different medications and substances that are absorbed by your body. Increased vitamin D levels appear to be linked with a decrease in the amount of vitamin K in your body, though it is not known if taking vitamin D directly affects vitamin K.

 

The Vaccine Hoax is Over – Secret Documents Reveal Shocking Truth

3. Known they are a hazard to children
4. Colluded to lie to the public
5. Worked to prevent safety studies

Gut Bacteria Could Cause Diabetes

Studying gut bacteria can reveal a range of human illness. Now, new research shows that the composition of a person’s intestinal bacteria could play an important role in the development of type 2 diabetes. These results, from a joint European and Chinese research team, have just been published in the journal Nature.

The number of people suffering from type 2 diabetes world-wide has risen rapidly in recent years, and scientists estimate that just as many people could be suffering from the illness without realising it. New research now indicates that your gut bacteria can reveal whether you suffer from the disease

Should We Avoid Fish Because of Mercury? Part 2

How much fish is safe to eat?
Joint recommendations for fish consumption from the EPA and FDA as of 2004 are as follows:

  • Eat up to 12 ounces (2 average meals) a week of a variety of commonly eaten fish and shellfish found consistently low in mercury, including shrimp, canned light tuna, salmon, pollock, and catfish

  • Limit albacore tuna to 6 oz. per week
  • Do not eat shark, swordfish, king mackerel, or tilefish because they contain high levels of mercury

Should We Avoid Fish Because of Mercury? Part 1

Did you know there is an important trace mineral in fish that helps offset the mercury content you absorb when you eat it? For the last several decades, many health and medical sources have recommended limiting consumption of fish due to mercury content. Mercury is a heavy metal, and when it accumulates in the body can cause health problems such as damage to the nervous system, brain, and digestive tract. Based on what we know about heavy metals in our bodies, it’s certainly wise to avoid them.

Breast Cancer and Heart Attacks: A Deadly Side Effect of Calcium Supplements OR Could It Be The The Synthetic Vitamin D3?

Dr. Donald Weber has a good zinger from time to time... thought i would share his thoughts on the subject....

Breast Cancer and Heart Attacks: A Deadly Side Effect of Calcium Supplements OR Could It Be The The Synthetic Vitamin D3?

By Dr. Mercola - January 30 2012

In this article Dr. Mercola implies that taking elemental calcium supplements may actually increase your relative risk of heart attack and stroke.

However people have been taking calcium supplements for years, if not centuries (albeit the wrong form).

So why all of a sudden are calcium supplements causing these problems?

I submit to you that the problem is the addition of cholecalciferol, the synthetic form of D3 that Big Dharma is handing out by the bushel basket full, (It is also used in Rat Poisons).


Health Impact News Editor Comment: The Telegraph and other sources are reporting that James Holmes, dosed up on prescription drugs

Found the Below article of interest... I doubt the story will be covered as too much money and power is controlled by the companies making these drugs... just as the general discussion on drug use/manufacturing/sales and who is making the money  will not be covered..... so deflect the real story we will talk about guns and anything else but the real story.

The Truth About Tattoos: Health Risks, Toxicity and More

(NaturalNews) A frighteningly growing number of teens and young adults around the world are injecting dangerous chemicals under their skin in the name of art and self-expression. A trend that started growing in America and Europe in the early '90s, tattooing soon became so popular that 36% of Americans aged 25-29 had at least one body tattoo by 2003.1 The numbers have undoubtedly risen in the four years since; tattoos are now well-entrenched in the mainstream. Even the media regularly glorifies tattoo culture, ...

Babble’s List of the 10 Most Unhealthy Foods Marketed to Kids

Last fall, Babble posted the 10 most unhealthy “health” foods marketed to kids. It’s encouraging to see mainstream web sites telling the truth about products from the food industry, and hopeful that more will be uncovered in the future. This is invaluable information all parents should have.

As parents, we are bombarded with information from companies about the products they sell. It can be overwhelming. What companies don’t tell us is that labeling is deceptive, and the claims made there usually don’t tell the truth about the food it represents.

Swine flu vaccines cause 17-fold increase in narcolepsy, horrified scientists discover

(NaturalNews) The long-term health damage caused by the great H1N1 swine flu scam "pandemic" of 2009 -- and particularly the mass vaccination campaign that accompanied it -- is already becoming apparent in the form of an autoimmune disorder. A new review published in the journal Public Library of Science ONE confirms that Pandemrix, a swine flu vaccine produced by drug giant GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), is responsible for causing an up to 1700 percent increase in narcolepsy among children and teenagers under 17 years of age.

What was cod liver oil like in the early 1800's? Was it brown? How did it taste?

I picked up a book that was originally published around 1840.  Here are a few quotes

Paleodiet and Polio Virus

Paleodiet and Polio Virus

In response to my recent posts on vaccinations, Jeff asked me about polio. Many people think immunizations provide our only defense against this disease.

In 1941, Dr. Benjamin P. Sandler, M.D., published “The production of neuronal injury and necrosis with the virus of poliomyelitis in rabbits during insulin hypoglycemia,” a largely ignored report of his experiments which demonstrated that the poliovirus can only attack neurons suffering from insulin-induced hypoglycemia.

In the introduction of this paper, Sandler wrote:

“While engaged in a clinical study of chronic hypoglycemia inpatients of all ages I was impressed with the fact that several patients gave histories of attacks of poliomyelitis with residual paralysis. It occurred to me that a disturbance in carbohydrate metabolism could be a factor in susceptibility to infection with the virus of poliomyelitis, especially since, during hypoglycemia, cellular oxdation will be reduced.”

Miracle Happens At Wisconsin High School


APPLETON, Wisconsin -- A revolution has occurred. It's taken place in the Central Alternative High School. The kids now behave. The hallways aren't frantic. Even the teachers are happy. The school used to be out of control. Kids packed weapons. Discipline problems swamped the principal's office. But not since 1997. What happened? Did they line every inch of space with cops? Did they spray valium gas in the classrooms? Did they install metal detectors in the bathrooms? Did they build holding cells in the gym?

A Call To forward Articles. If you know any studies / articles relating nutrition and the propensity for deviance please forward

I am seeking articles and studies on the topic relating nutrition of a society and its propensity of the people to be deviant in group / individual behavior.

If you recall that late in Dr. Prices work he disclosed this relationship within the populations/cultures he studied.

I would like to post a series of studies and articles that relate to this subject.

 

Diet and Violence

Diet and Violence

Does diet affect our criminal behavior?

What would you think if I told you that young people today likely committed violent, criminal acts in partdue to poor nutrition. What if they continued those violent acts in prison as the poor nutrition continued? Reserve judgment for now. This is science - let's see what the data tells us. My theory is that our relatively nutrient-poor modern diets contribute to a great deal of modern psychopathology.

Did a Deficiency Make You Do It?

A lack of zinc in your diet may be making you aggressive.

Several years ago I ran across a fascinating article in Psychology Today which focused on the origin of violent behavior. Was it nature or nutrition? Could the underlying cause be in one’s upbringing or in their genes? Or just maybe it could be some type of nutritional imbalance.

Taking the nutritional stance was William Walsh, Ph.D. and his team at the Health Research Institute in Illinois. Walsh and his colleagues published a study in Physiology & Behavior (1997) where they compared the results of blood tests given to 135 “assaultive” young males—who were between 3 and 20 years of age—to those of 18 in the control group without any history of violence. The results were staggering: The violent males had higher copper and lower zinc levels than the control group. The higher the copper and lower the zinc, the more aggressive and violent the behavior.

When the aggressive young males were treated with therapeutic doses of zinc, their aggressive episodes were substantially lessened.

Wow!

Mercury Fearmongers

Mercury Fearmongers

  • Chicago Tribune reporters Michael Hawthorne and Sam Roe

    SCARE: Self-described as “one of the nation's most comprehensive studies of mercury in commercial fish,” a December 2005 Chicago Tribune report from Michael Hawthorne and Sam Roe claimed that a number of popular fish sold in Chicago markets and restaurants were “so tainted that federal regulators could confiscate the fish for violating food safety rules.” In a later editorial complaining about “Tuna Roulette,” the Tribune warned of “dangerous levels of mercury that can be found in many commonly consumed fish varieties” and called for an increase in FDA testing and food warning labels.

    FACT: This report completely ignored the reality of the safety margins that are built into the FDA’s consumer advice. Fish samples exceeding the FDA’s mercury Action Level are not inherently unsafe to eat. According to Hawthorne and Roe, the highest mercury reading in its survey was a swordfish whose concentration was 3.07 parts per million. Considering the Action Level’s built-in safety factor, this is less than one-third of the level that might be harmful. No other species averaged above 1.0 part per million.

    FACT: Despite their headline hyperbole, Hawthorne and Roe were unable to find a single sample of tuna that exceeded the mercury Action Level, which is itself just ten percent of what might be harmful.

Mercury Myths

Myth: The amount of mercury in our environment (and in the fish we eat) is dangerously increasing.

The truth: There's considerable evidence that the amount of mercury in fish has remained the same (or even decreased) during the past 100 years.

Tuna Meltdown

 

Over the next couple wks i will post a few articles to 'stir the discussion pot' on the topic of mercury.. please post/share your comments

 

By steering consumers away from the fish counter and the canned tuna aisle, overblown warnings about trace mercury levels have directly and negatively impacted public health, especially the neurological development of children born to low-income mothers.

This report offers the first quantitative measurement of that impact.

Variant H3N2 Influenza Virus: What You Should Know

In the last 6 months of 2011, 12 US residents in 5 different states (Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia) were found to be infected with this influenza A H3N2 variant virus that had genes from avian, swine, and human influenza viruses. Similar viruses have been found in the past in swine but only very rarely infected people. However, this virus, first detected in August, was a little bit different. It contained another genetic change: It had acquired the matrix (M) gene from the 2009 H1N1 pandemic virus.

Vitamin D and Chronic Rhinitis

Recent findings Vitamin D has been shown to have an immunomodulatory effect with a significant impact on immune function. Specifically, vitamin D regulates the mechanisms which suppress the inflammatory response and direct the differentiation fate of immune cells. Vitamin D has been shown to play an important role in asthma, and the concept of the unified airway model allows the extrapolation of vitamin D as a critical player in chronic rhinitis and rhinosinusitis.
Summary Recent findings on the function of vitamin D may explain aspects of the pathophysiology of chronic rhinitis and CRS, and may help direct future treatment of these diseases.

Monsanto's Crimes Against Humanity --

It's almost time to say goodbye to the food your grandparents consumed, because genetically modified crops have spread their toxic attributes across the globe. As their damaged genetics spread, their potential harm is being denied, and scientists who speak out are persecuted.

The Marshall Protocol

I found this interesting article... Good for general discussion. The discussion about urine therapy in this type of article is encouraging.

In addition the discussion or debate about levels of vitamin D in blood samples is relevant for debate as the article points out. Real FCLO is different from other cod liver oils as there are many types of D and none of the types are made or extracted and added into the product as other supplements/foods are treated for labeling purposes.

I just don't think we have the knowledge to make conclusions about this molecule or that molecule in relation to natural medicine. So the debate goes on.....
