Hi and Welcome to my Health Website! Below is my story - most of my adult
life with chronic fatigue and brain fog to clear thinking again. I've had a
long journey. Feel free to read my story

Are you
concerned about Global Warming, and decreasing oxygen levels and
their impact on human health? We lost our opportunity to reverse the greenhouse effect with
trees back in the seventies.
ALGAE IS
THE ANSWER! Algae triples in volume daily
producing up to 15,000 gallons/acre per year (unlike corn with 1
crop/year netting 80 gallons/acre); decreases EXISTING CO2 levels; increases O2;
has some varieties that are over 50% oil and easily converts into
bio-fuel! PLUS
info on Hydrogen being a dangerous, expensive and terrible option
See more about all this at my new web: ALGAE TO OIL:

HERE'S MY STORY...
Chronic
Fatigue: My Adventure into
Alternative Health & Wellness
(written by Michael Betz and Tami Freedman)
My name is Tami Freedman. This is my
story.
In 1982, I was playing softball in a neighbor's
yard when the ball ricocheted off the glove and hit me in the eye. The
softball broke the bone under my left eye that separates the eye socket from
the nasal cavity. Surgery, my only one to date, put a balloon in the nasal
cavity to support the bone until it mended. The doctor prescribed extremely
strong antibiotics before surgery; I also had a CAT scan at this time.
In the following months, I couldn't think as
creatively with my writing projects. I had problems organizing my material
around information and jokes. I had planned to be a writer and loved
screenwriting so this was devastating.
During 1983, I
fatigued easily and often: I worked
24 to 28 hours a week (usually 3 days) but it would take 3 days to recover.
I had very low energy and cold extremities.
In the winter
of 1984, I was constantly sick with colds, bronchitis and upper respiratory
infections. I couldn't understand what was happening so I took these
questions to my primary care physician who referred me to a specialist in
diabetes and hypoglycemia. When these suspected culprits were eliminated, I
was sent to a neurologist who also couldn't identify anything wrong.
By 1985, I had seen 8 or 10 medical specialists who failed
to find anything wrong or provide any help for the heavy weight of fatigue.
The term chronic fatigue syndrome had not yet come into common usage.
During the following year, my mother showed me a front page
Parade Magazine article about yeast. I was excited: My symptoms were
perfectly described and the article suggested that those who had the
symptoms should consult an allergist for a yeast test. Here was my
illness and a way to cure it!!! I took the article to my local allergist
and handed it to him. He treated me like a hypochondriac, bothering him with
the illness of the week (illness de jure’). When he learned that my
only surgery had been for a softball injury, he treated me more respectfully
but the final conclusion of my meeting with him was: Yeast is a bogus
condition. The article is a sham. The writer is a quack!
The allergist did refer me for full allergy testing because he
said my problems might be allergy related. That turned up only two
slight allergies so I was sent home with fewer answers than before.
Since I could no longer write screenplays after the accident
and surgery, I became a Realtor
because I could do the math and work with people. Due to the severe brain
fog, I couldn't remember appointments I had scheduled unless I had a written
list. I made extensive use of lists to function since my memory was poor.
In 1988, everyone in my Real Estate office
(mostly females) signed up for a weight loss program. Being a single
non-cooking person with low energy and a sweet tooth, I had been consuming
junk foods at quite a pace. I had gained weight and so decided to join them
in the weight loss program. The first step of this program was a 4-day fast.
I drank water for four days, leaving the sweets behind. Upon awakening the
fifth day, I realized my brain was slightly less foggy. I had my answer.
It was diet-related and probably due to yeast. I asked
around until I found a conventional physician who tested for yeast levels in
the body.
Dr Dixon, a physician in Rome Georgia conducted
a number of tests including a test for yeast. The yeast test took two weeks
for the results to return from distant labs. When he came into the room,
he began telling me the Yeast Diet and Protocol. I asked him if I had
yeast. He looked surprised and said, Yes, I had tested off the top of
the scale. A score of 39 was high but my score was 105. He prescribed a
Yeast diet, consisting mostly of green veggies, white meats and water. The
medicine he prescribed was Nystatin powder.
After a year on the diet and Nystatin, I was only a tiny bit better and
after eight years in Real Estate, I quit (in 1992) because I really couldn't
work - I had reached an energetic low point in my life.
In 1997, I started exploring alternative
therapies. Through a friend, I met
an Iridologist who diagnosed illness and health conditions from examining
the iris of the eye. I had a session with this Iridologist and tried some
herbs. My friend also referred me to a Reflexologist who worked on me twice
a week for much of the fall of 1997. From the reflexology treatments, herbs
and home remedies, I started experiencing some improvement.
I revisited Dr. Dixon for a re-test of my yeast and
also to test for mold in the fall of 1997. The test results this time were
obtained in his office for quick results. Again, I tested over the range on
both tests. I was prescribed Nystatin and Diflucan. These helped some.
In 1998, my mother called one evening and asked me to turn on
the TV to watch an episode of Unsolved Mysteries on “energy healing”. A
Chinese medical doctor and Qi Gong Master, Dr. Hong Liu was explaining
energy healing. Researchers at Harvard had studied Qi Gong with him
directing his energy at petri dishes with cancer, while other petri dishes
with cancer were left untreated. In his treated dishes, the cancer shrank
during the month, while the untreated cancer dishes grew at a normal rate.
The next day I bought his book, Mastering Miracles and became a
believer in healing energy.
I asked an
online friend to find me a healer on the internet. I assumed there
would be no such healers in Chattanooga, but since I had relatives in
California and New Jersey, I thought there might be a healer in one of those
locations. She located a distant healer from Maryland who I called and
worked with for some six months. I also worked once with someone she found
in Atlanta. Over time, while talking to herbalists, chiropractors and
others, I learned of healers in my own hometown. These conversations
directed me to Joan Colmore. I made an appointment and was thrilled with my
sessions. I was slowly getting better.
In 2000, I got attuned in Reiki and joined a Reiki share circle in Cleveland
Tennessee. Here I was introduced to the alternative health network CAHS that
became WWN in Knoxville/Cleveland.
Attending those conferences and regular meetings, I started learning about
more alternative health practices and began meeting many alternative
practitioners in this area.
In 2001, I went to my primary care physician,
an internist, and asked what a person could do about Chronic Fatigue.
"There's not much that can be done for that,” she said.
Also in the fall of 2001, Dr. Eric Pearl, the founder of a energy healing
modality called Reconnective Healing conducted a seminar at our church,
Christ Unity. This healing tool was very helpful!
The first several sessions restored my
energy field for the first time in years. The sessions brought powerful
healing improvements.
In April 2002, I asked a friend in my alternative health network what could
be done for chronic fatigue. This led her to an important therapy that
changed everything! This friend started me on a path toward saving my
life. She suggested Herbal
Repair foot soaks would infuse my body with nutrients; I was referred to
a local practitioner for this special type of foot soak.
The Herbal Repair practitioner gave a list of
herbs/oils/fruits/etc to buy and I returned with a bowling ball size bag of
fresh garlic, white and black figs, olive oil, peppers, white willow powder,
onions, carob powder, several essential oils, and more. With my bag full of
food, herbs, and essential oils, I arrived hoping Herbal Repair would
facilitate my healing! The theory behind Herbal Repair is that feet
contain the largest pores of our body, and hot water helps open these pores.
Upon putting all these herbs, figs, garlic, and oils into the foot soak,
they are absorbed directly into the bloodstream. A big magnet is placed at
the adrenals to draw these nutrients into key organs of the body. Eating herbs and other
nutrients to be absorbed via the stomach is nearly impossible. With herbal
repair, these nutrients become absorbed into the bloodstream within several
hours. Absorbing them directly through the skin facilitates the infusion of
these nutrients into the system!
The day
after my first Herbal Repair session I experienced a huge benefit. I spent
money, but I felt greatly enriched with more energy and nutrients in my
body. I could afford this only once a month since I wasn't working. After 5
or 6 sessions, the lady taught me how to do these foot soaks on myself. I
bought bowls, magnets and of course, more herbs, garlic, oils and etc. I
began home treatments.
In 2002,
the herbal repair lady referred me to a different type of foot soak. It was
called “Ion Cleanse.” This was a $2500 machine that plugs into the wall,
while a part of the machine rests in the pan of water where you place your
feet. In 30 minutes, the machine ionizes the water and since the human body
is normally 60-70% water, the body is also ionized. That ionizing turns the
water from clear to dirty orange brown in 30 minutes. Tests show that the
scum floating on the top contains heavy metals, toxins and the cottage
cheese looking white colored stuff is yeast.
During 2002
and 2003, I had approximately 30 Ion Cleanse sessions. In the first 10
sessions or so, all manner of colors in the scum floated on top of the
water. In the next 20 sessions, it was mostly cottage cheese looking yeast
floating in the water after the session.
I believe that an overgrowth of
Candida albicans (yeast) is the most common underlying problem in Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome.
By the time the yeast takes hold, the gut no longer is effective and
cells are not getting nourished. This yeast releases 80 - 120 toxins
including formaldehyde that shuts down much of the endocrine and
sweating systems so the person experiences a heavy load of toxin backup.
You lose your energy and clear thinking. Compounding the problem is the
shutting down of proper food assimilation, and proper waste expulsion thru
sweating. While the body is becoming more and more toxic, the body has less
and less nutrients and systems for removing toxins cease to work, creating a
huge toxic burden.
Between
Herbal Repair Foot Soaks and Ion Cleanse Foot Soaks, I was moving along
the path and finally getting better -- things were returning that had been
dormant for a very long time. I continued with more home-foots soaks
(not nearly as effective as the ones by the Herbal Repair lady) and wearing
Essential Oils all the time since they were so helpful!!
Essential oils contain tremendous healing properties and can affect almost
every cell and organ system in the body. Each essential oil has a unique
pharmacological effect, such as anti-bacterial, antifungal and antiviral. It
also is a powerful oxygenator that delivers nutrients into the cells as the
oil contains trace elements of nutrients, hormones, enzymes, vitamins,
minerals, antibodies and antifungal properties. The oil transports the
fundamental nutrients necessary to feed and nurture the cells. The essential
oil penetrates the cell wall and transports oxygen and nutrients inside the
cell. One cause of disease is the inability of nutrients to penetrate the
cell wall, causing cell deterioration, creating a host for bacteria and
disease. About 200 different types of oils are being distilled with several
thousand chemical constituents and aromatic molecules.
For many
years, I realized that I got no energy from food. In talking to a friend
with Fibromyalgia, she mentioned one day that she got no energy from eating.
I was surprised, thinking I was the only person who experienced no energy
from eating. Then in
August 2003, after 15 months of Herbal Repair, 30 sessions of Ion Cleanse,
and numerous years of herbs and Reiki & Reconnective healing sessions, I
ate a meal and for the first time in years, I felt a small increase in
energy. With each successive meal in the following days, I experienced
more energy from each meal until by Christmas, my eating energy “felt
normal.”
My family
had been supportive of me- both financially and emotionally. But because of
being sick, I sought out healers and people in the alternative health
community and these people have become like family to me. Throughout 2003,
brain functions were slowly returning after 22
years. In November 2003, I sweated for the first time in many years.
During the
fall of 2003, I met a person who owned a Rife Machine. This energy machine
creates vibrational fields that counteract different conditions and
diseases. The Rife machine, like everything else helped some. While
talking to this woman running the Rife machine, I asked her, What does a
person do for Chronic Fatigue? She replied: That is easy for a woman.
Take a garlic clove leaving the 'onion skin' on, pierce it with a fork prong and place it in the vagina. Hmmm,
I had to think about that one -- for 3 months.
Finally in
January 2004, determined it was time to get well, I got a garlic clove and
tried this “folk-remedy.” Within 12
hours I felt like I'd had a professional foot soak!
The health improvement was immense! I
was excited and called my friend who owned the Ion Cleanse machine. She knew
about this therapy. She suggested putting essential oils in water and
inserting it into the vagina with a syringe and inserting a tampon to hold
the essential oil and water there.
In the book The Oil That
Heals, Castor Oil heat packs are used on the abdomen to heal all sorts
of problems. I decided to experiment with essential oil directly on the
tampon, followed by soaking the tampon in castor oil before using.
Again, within 12 hours, I felt a huge improvement! Two, three, four times
per day, I used essential oil tampons and felt like my body was
healing at an incredible pace. I used Juniper, Lemon, Yarrow Green Milfoil,
Blue Tansy and others. I always covered the tampon liberally in Castor Oil. In November 2004, my ‘brain fog’ was finally
clearing and after years of work and struggle, I began to consider myself "alive" again!!
In early December, I bought my first batch of
GlycoNutrients. Having read about people who mega-dosed on this product, I
decided to mega-infuse nutrients into my system so my body could heal more
quickly. (These are listed in the PDR of non-prescription supplements -
non-toxic in any amount). I took a month's supply of Glyconutrients in two
days and felt great.
Because I was already almost well when I was first introduced to
GlycoNutrients, I'm not including those in the therapies
I found most helpful (below). The therapies that helped me most in
recovering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome are:
1)
The Essential Oil Tampon & Garlic Tampons are #1 !!
2)
Herbal Repair Foot Soaks
are next!
(NOTE: Herbal Repair folks are now using Color
Therapy with amazing success!)
Recently I've discovered a number of additional "miracles from God" for creating cures,
including: Mangosteen
Juice, Kombucha Tea, Acai, Vibe and NCD (click
on the links on this site for more info!) I've also heard wonderful things
about Gogi Juice -- that's supposed to have some of the polysaccharide/glyconutrient
sugars and be great for diabetes and hot flashes! (more info coming soon!)
The nice thing about
Glyconutrients and all of these are that they're regular cures that seem to
be creating miracles and it's MUCH easier to talk to most people about products they can
purchase than complicated foots soaks and tampons. So these days, when
people mention a health problem they're having, I'm happy to say to them:
Mangosteen, Acai,
Cayenne, and Glyco-nutrients!!
THESE ARE CREATING MIRACLES DAILY!!
People
I've talked to have overcome Chronic Fatigue Syndrome with a variety of
different therapies. Some therapies are more helpful to some than to others.
Continual efforts of eating organic whenever possible and
buying health food store body products - gargling with hydrogen peroxide -
all helped me! I'd try anything and everything
that might return you to wellness - usually with big dividends!! No health
condition should be viewed as permanent. If Downs can be reversed, almost
anything is possible. Full belief and continued striving for
wellness are most important. I've also come across several additional
amazing products including NCD (Natural Cellular Defense) with Zeolites that
detoxes people so well that their urine, sweat and bowel movements smell
much stronger. I've heard that 99% of adult Americans and all people with
chronic illnesses, are extremely toxic. So a quick and easy detox is a great
first step!
Blessings, Tami :-)
PS I recently got scrapes on both feet
while visiting my 4 rambunctious grand nieces and nephew in Whitwell TN.
They brought a first aid kit and did a fine job of appearing to clean
and treat the sores. Several days later both feet were infected and
swollen to twice their normal size. I did epsom salt and hydrogen
peroxide foot soaks for days- to no avail. Then when visiting the
Fulfolds (wonderful alternative N GA health practitioners in Ft
Oglethorpe) they said: Do not use hydrogen peroxide on an ongoing basis.
It contains high levels of lead. And it tears up the skin you're trying
to heal. They told me to instead soak my feet in epsom salts and
Mangosteen -
and to use Mangosteen poultices on them. My feet began to heal immediately.
Thank God for the Fulfords and for Mangosteen. More poultice info on
Mangosteen page.

ACAI Juice
and WOW! It's amazing!
PSS If you're worried about Global

Low Thyroid -
Fatigue, etc.
Because of lack of Iodine
in the SAD standard American diet, flouridation, etc most people are
operating on a poorly functioning thyroid. Recently modern medicine expanded
the tests to almost everyone is reported to have normal thyroid function. If
you have these symptoms, you could have low thyroid: 1) Low Energy 2)
Fatigue or Tired 3) Thinning Hair 4) Constipation 5) Cold Extremities 6)
Cracked heels 7) Thinning on outer edges of eye brows. If you have most or
all of these, low thyroid could be your health challenge and Iodine or
Thyroid Extract could help!

CHRONIC FATIGUE
SYNDROME
Can be caused by many things including
a) Low Thyroid; b) Allergies (food or other); c) MOLD in houses, work
places; d) SYSTEMIC YEAST (whole system) or INTESTINAL YEAST, a.k.a. Candida Albicans. IgG tests
can be done for b, c, and d.
Yeast overgrowth is often caused by antibiotics and/or birth control pills
that kill off the intestine's natural flora, allowing the yeast to grow out
of control. Stress, poor diet - including too much sweets, etc contribute to
the growth of yeast. The yeast / Candida then put out toxins that can create
numerous and wide-ranging symptoms inside the body including fatigue and
exhaustion, loss of sexuality & creativity, headaches, sensitivity to
cold, etc, etc.
Also look at HHV-6 (Human Herpes Virus 6) often implicated in Chronic Fatigue
and all low energy situations.

CATARACTS & EYE PROBLEMS
Ch 17 - Curing sick eyes with cayenne, from book: "Curing
With Cayenne” by Sam Biser
Use eyewash to make eyes stronger,
help cure or prevent cataracts and glaucoma, etc. (dissolve cataracts in
five months using eyewash 3 to 4 times daily) and herbalist Dr. Richard
Schultze says he’s never seen a glaucoma patient that didn’t get
dramatic results when they used the eyewash.
Eyewash Tea
Formula:
* 1 part Cayenne Pepper –
stimulates eye tissue and increases circulation to eyes. (use 250,000
Heat Unit cayenne pepper if possible)
* 1 part Golden Seal Root – kills any infection or bacteria
in eye tissue.
* 1 part Bayberry – promotes growth of new, healthy eye
tissue.
* 1 part Red Raspberry – promotes growth of new, healthy
eye tissue.
* 1 part Eyebright – herb used to cure eye problems for
last 700 years.
Mix herbs together. Put one heaping teaspoon of the formula in a cup of
boiling distilled water. (never use tap). When the tea has cooled, pour
the solution thru a clean piece of cotton or wool (t-shirt is fine).
Then pour a small amount into either a small glass eye cup – using it to
place eye in while leaving eye open or blinking eye. Or use a small
1-ounce or 2-ounce glass container with an eyedropper. Keep using
eyewash 3 –4 times per day. If your eyes are really bad, you can use 5-6
times daily. Keep refrigerated as it will grow mold at room temperature
(and re-make a new batch of the tea each week). Additionally take the
several dropperfuls of the formula twice daily internally.
(Note: Another way to use these
herbs is by making a tincture – then placing 1-20 drops of tincture in
an eyecup with some room temperature water. Also take internally. This
mixture lasts longer and may not need refrigeration).
Eyewash Tincture
Formula:
* 1/4 to 1 part Cayenne (up to 2,
3 or 4 parts Cayenne) (use 250,000 Heat Unit cayenne pepper if
possible)
* 1 part Eyebright
* 1 part Golden Seal Root
* 1 part Fennel seed
* 1 part Red Raspberry
* 1 part Mullein flowers
* 1 part Rue (optional)
Put herbs in a jug. Cover thoroughly with 80-100 proof vodka. Let sit
for two weeks. Strain through cheesecloth or t-shirt. Use 5-10 drops of
tincture in an eyecup filled with distilled water. Wash your eyes fix or
six times a day for severe eye problems. Also use internally, 3 – 6
dropperfuls a day. According to Dr. Schultze, this should cure
most cataract and other eye problems in approximately 5 months or less. Dr. Richard Schultze's website:

My Autism Connection:
My niece Kara's aunt has three boys ( 9
and twins 6) with severe autism. Being in Alternative Health, I decided to
find answers since I'd found so much to help me. Instead of alternatives, I found
SCIENCE - huge levels of science
and research showing autism is at least 90% of the time mercury poisoning
(usually from mother's mercury fillings, ie silver amalgams, and mother's
rhogham shots or multitude of vaccines (22 by age 2 years) to the child.
Autism and mercury poisoning have identical symptoms and when you chelate
mercury from the body, children with autism excrete 6 to 9 times more mercury than
normal "control" kids. The vaccines they gave our infants in the 1990's were
up to 138 TIMES above EPA safe mercury levels. Mercury suitable for 1787 lb person -
injected into veins of 2 and 3 month old infants - 187.5 mcg by age six months
- the time at which they finally start getting a functional blood brain
barrier & liver bile function for mercury elimination. Genetics plays a role.
Those who don't excrete mercury well get autism (mercury poisoning).
There are other problems with vaccines including too many too young with too
many other bad ingredients like MSG, Latex, Formaldehyde, Aluminum,
Anti-Freeze, Phenol, Aborted Fetal Tissue, Monkey Kidney's (toxic organ) and
etc.
Before vaccinating, please buy the book (available at amazon.com only $11),
WHAT YOUR DOCTOR MAY NOT TELL YOU ABOUT CHILDREN'S VACCINATIONS, by
Dr. Stephanie Cave (who treats over 600 children with autism at her Baton
Rouge LA clinic).
Thank You! and Bless you!

LEVAQUIN HORROR STORY
A
Healing Request that came from my friend Kathy McAmis on Friday, Feb. 2006.
Kathy used to be on WWN Bd and is member of Red Hat ladies in Cleveland. A
fellow Red-Hatter, Maxine had a sinus infection in fall 2005. She went
to doctor and got prescription Levaquin (an antibiotic). Maxine had taken
this less than 48 hours when in middle of night, her husband awoke to find
her in convulsions. He rushed her to E.R. where her temp was fluctuating
wildly from 96 to 106 to 96 to 106, etc. She went into coma for several
months at Bradley Memorial Nursing Home. In a small number of
cases, Levaquin knocks out the persons internal thermostat among other
things. Today, Maxine struggles to speak, walk and do normal things.
When Paula McCullough (friend of KM and myself) went online and looked at
side effects for Levaquin, it listed convulsions in a small number of cases.
Asking that you pray for Maxine and include her in healing prayers.

BIG PHARMA Info from book
"Prescription for Disaster"
Hismanal Horror Story: As they got ready for bed, Amy Kaufman has a
question for her neuro-surgeon husband Gary. Several months earlier she had
seen a dermatologist for an outbreak of hives. She came home with a
prescription for a popular non-sedating antihistamine called Hismanal. As
instructed, she took one tablet every morning. But that evening after dinner,
her hives still bothered her. She asked her question to a medical doctor (her
husband). Could she take an extra tablet at bedtime? "One tablet can't
kill you," Gary said. After she took the extra tablet, they went to bed. When
Kaufman awoke the next morning, his wife was dead. The autopsy report said
Amy's death was caused by cardiac arrest and implicated Hismanal. Gary was so
traumatized, he quit medicine.
In the fine print, the manufacturer had reported that
cardiac arrests had been observed with as little as one extra tablet. By May
1994, Hismanal had been linked to at least 82 cases of erratic heart rhythms
so dangerous they required hospitalization. If Gary and Amy Kaufman had been
in a minor auto accident on a Sunday drive, the authorities would have become
involved immediately. In most states, even $150 in minor damage would bring a
paid public servant (police officer) to take a detailed report. Such reports
would be analyzed for lessons about automobile safety. Almost any other kind
of accident that results in death typically receives intense official
scrutiny. A lethal fire, boating accident, or commercial airplane crash brings
trained investigators to the site immediately. But when a prescription drug is
suspected of killing a person, the health professionals on the scene have no
obligation to file a report about the drug -- and rarely do so.
WHAT DRUGS DO: Cells have an abundant variety of
receptor switches to achieve all the millions of fine adjustments the body
requires to respond to a constantly changing environment. Drugs work on the
theory of turning on or off chemical reactions in cellular receptors. We can
better understand what drugs are doing in the body, if we look at this
drug/cell receptor idea with an analogy. We'll focus on one kind of control
switch - a household thermostat. Instead of a drug molecule as messenger,
we'll use a primitive robot that all it can do is search tirelessly through
the house looking for anything the size and shape of a thermostat. If the
robot finds a thermostat, it nudges the setting upward. This is in fact, how
drugs work. Suppose the house becomes too cold. This seems like the
perfect assignment for the robot, which circulates through the house looking
for thermostats. Whenever it finds one, it will adjust the setting
upward. Most of the time, this will warm up the house. However, it will also
turn up the refrigerator, the hot-water heater, and the freezer. In a few
cases this might be harmful. Maybe the frozen food melted, perhaps someone got
burned because the water was now too hot, If this robot is the only tool
available to change thermostat settings, most people would still be happy to
have it, however the whole approach is inherently limited. It is frequently
going to produce undesirable effects; and under some circumstances it can do
substantial harm. The robot is very simple and reliable and just like the drug
molecule, it has a remarkably consistent effect, however the cellular control
settings it is interfering with are not at all simple. Modern receptor-based
drugs are potent; they get into blood circulation and start flipping control
switches everywhere. Some of these multitude of changes produce effects that
are unwanted or unexpected. They are called adverse effects.
DRUG STATISTICS: From the most senior public health
officials to the daily consumers of medication, people just don't want to
think about the risks of this inherently risky business. Even the FDA has a
dilemna, Every time is moves to restrict or withdraw a dangerous drug, it has
to face questions about why it allowed the drug to reach the market in the
first place.
Periodically, a major health researcher surveys the woefully
inadequate data and estimates the lives lost each year to prescribed
medications. How many Amy Kaufmans die every year? Best guesstimates are
100,000 plus. This total is four times as many as die from homicide and
more than double the death toll from auto accidents in this country. (Other
sources place US prescription deaths in the 250,000+ range). Over a
lifetime of drug taking, the average American has at least a 26+% chance of
being hospitalized from a drug injury. Other US risks: 9% chance for smoker's
risk of lung cancer death; 2 in 100 severely injured in auto accident; 1 in
100 death by murder; 1 in 35,000 death in commercial air crash; 1 in 70,000
chance of being struck by lightning.
With at least 10,000 annual deaths, 1 million severely injured,
and another 2 million harmed by drugs during hospitalization, adverse
reactions to drugs rank as one of the greatest man-made dangers in modern
society.

COMA INFO
Here's a list of things that can be given via feeding tube or applied externally (rub slightly
diluted on
skin) - mega-dosing internally or externally is the key!
1) ConcenTrace Trace Minerals (& ConcenTrace Electrolytes)-
applied externally to absorb through skin (avoids digestive tract, often not
functioning fully or with enough enzymes to utilize nutrition.
2) COMA Essential Oil Blend - applied externally.
Steven Seagal (in real life) has used this blend to help bring victims out of a coma.
Click above for more info.
3) Aloe Vera Concentrate - 70:1
this is reported to be so powerful it may be one of the best cancer fighting
products on the market. This has amazing healing properties, and could be
applied externally or given internally (feeding tube) - possibly diluted for
either way.
(8 oz = $80 Product: WLA132 Phone: 1-800-364-2182).
4) Mangosteen Juice - seems to be healing everyone of all manner of things.
Usually given internally, however is very powerful in poultice or used
externally.
5) Glyconutrients - create trillions of STEM CELLS in the body that
allow the immune system to heal almost anythings!! Again this is usually an
internal product, however if a person has poor absorption, it can be made
into a poultice and used externally.
6) VIBE - by Eniva is listed in the PDR of Non-Prescriptive Supplements
as having the highest ORAC rating of anything at this time available to be
purchased. Provides trace minerals in ionic form for great absorption.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Multiple Sclerosis -- is less prevalent
in sunnier climates. The reason? Vitamin D! High doses of Vitamin D can
prevent MS. Also try Healing Harps, Bee Sting Therapy, Hyperbaric Oxygen
Therapy, XanGo, Glyco-nutrients, and my #1 answer for women: Essential Oil
Tampons! I recommend trying Essential Oil Tampons for every condition -
and recommend these for preventative health -- increasing your immune
system and maintaining good health!

OLMSTED; UPI Senior Editor
Paraphrase: Thousands of children cared for by Homefirst Health
Services in metropolitan Chicago have at least two things in common with
thousands of Amish children in rural Lancaster: They have never been
vaccinated. And they don't have autism. Homefirst doctors have delivered
more than 15,000 babies at home, and thousands of them have never been
vaccinated. Blue Cross Insurance located this group because in addition
to not having autism, these kids don't have claims filed or show up in
Emergency Rooms with Asthma (10% of kids nationally have asthma). And
while these 15,000 babies cut across all races, religions and
socio-economic groups, their one common factor is not vaccinating. So,

By
DAN OLMSTED; UPI Senior Editor
Paraphrase: "They" may have forgotten to ask an embarrassingly
obvious question. Given the sheer certitude of federal health
authorities and mainstream medical groups such as the American Medical
Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics, we were surprised we
couldn't find comparisons between real-live American kids who've gotten
vaccines, and those who haven't. Officials say such a study would be
hard to do, in part because so many kids are vaccinated that you
couldn't find a "control group" of kids who aren't.
(Note: Approx. 80%
of kids nationally get vaccines - leaving an 80/20 group in society to
explore - quite possible statistically).
Sandy
Mintz at vaccinationnews.com writes: "My mantra has always been that
there are almost no vaccine safety or efficacy studies using never
vaccinated children as controls." Mintz asked our question of the year
at a congressional hearing in 2002: "Is NIH (National Institutes of
Health) ever planning on doing a study using the only proper control
group, that is, never vaccinated children?" Dr. Steve Foote of NIH
responded: "I am not aware of...a proposed study to use a suitably
constructed group of never vaccinated children. Now CDC would be more
likely perhaps to be aware of such an opportunity." We all continue to
wait for that. If you're interested in reading this very significant

By
DAN OLMSTED; UPI Senior Editor
Paraphrase:
Children in families
with problematic reactions to chickenpox virus may be at risk for
developing autism if they get that live-virus immunization too close to
other live-virus vaccines.
It’s thought
that live viruses contained in the MMR vaccine (particularly measles) cause immune
problems and autism in certain predisposed children. Now with autism
declining, Big Pharma
has developed ProQuad
– combining the worrisome MMR (the shot most often
associated with the sudden onset of “regressive” autism) & the standalone chickenpox vaccine, Varivax,
but with a major difference: It contains about 10 times more chickenpox vaccine
and all 4 live viruses in one shot.
Dr. Jeff Bradstreet, a
family practitioner in Florida who treats 3,000 autistic children says
he believes the risk of autism rises the earlier and closer together
that live-virus vaccines are administered. He warned the Institute of Medicine in
2004 that it was ignoring the possibility that younger children are more
vulnerable because their immune and neurological systems are immature.
"There's definitely been an association of kids getting MMR at 12 months and
crashing (becoming autistic)."
'I just think the rush to
develop the vaccine is criminal. Why would they want to give babies 10 times the
amount of the virus? Where is the thinking on that?' said Mary Southon,
grandmother of Jimmy Flinton (a test child who developed autism after ProQuad). She questioned why Merck would allow a child with
Jimmy`s family background to test any chickenpox vaccine. Unfortunately this vaccine has now been approved for
all infants by the FDA -- with no discussion.
Diana Sparby of the
Western Institutional Review Board in Olympia said it had not received reports
of autism from the local ProQuad study, but she noted the protocol "was not
designed to assess long-term safety, as it called for follow-up for only 42 days
following vaccine administration."
Last September,
the FDA approved frozen ProQuad for children 12 months
to 12 years old with no meeting about safety despite questions of autism
clusters in the test children and calls for tests to find children at genetic
risk. ProQuad is likely to be widely adopted by healthcare professionals who
previously administered separate MMR and Varivax shots. "Use of licensed
combination vaccines, such as (ProQuad), is preferred to separate injection of
their equivalent component vaccines," says the new edition of the CDC's "Pink
Book" on vaccine-preventable diseases. For more info, see links above
and click on either "Autism" or "Vaccine Awareness", links on this
website, above.
Finally, there's an additional very
significant article that all parents
of children with autism should be
aware of and able to share:
Study links
autism to mercury from coal plants
Emissions may contribute to rise in cases, Texas researcher says
Reuters, March 17, 2005
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7218182/
Paraphrase: Mercury
released primarily from coal-fired power plants may be contributing to
an increase in the number of cases of autism, a Texas researcher said.
“The main finding is that for every thousand pounds of environmentally
released mercury, we saw a 17 percent increase in autism rates.” The
study looked at Texas county-by-county levels of mercury emissions
recorded by the government and compared them to the rates of autism and
special education services in 1,200 Texas school districts, Miller said.
“The study shows that there may be a very important connection between
environmental exposure to mercury and the development of autism.”

ALUMINUM IN VACCINES INFO:
Injecting aluminum into a human body is not natural and it is common
sense that it can't be good for you. It is only matter of time before
more research will show the damage. The new HPV vaccines literally being
pushed on young girls would expose them to 675 mcg of aluminum dispersed
in 3 injections over 6 months each containing 225 mcg of aluminum. A
friend just sent me this discussion of some research going on showing
the damaging effects of the aluminum on mice manifesting is symptoms
associated with Parkinson's Disease, Lou Gehrig's Disease and

Vaccines Show Sinister Side
By Pieta Woolley, March 23, 2006
http://www.straight.com/article/vaccines-show-sinister-side
If two dozen once-jittery mice at UBC are
telling the truth postmortem, the world's governments may soon be facing
one hell of a lawsuit. New, so-far-unpublished research led by Vancouver
neuroscientist Chris Shaw shows a link between the aluminum hydroxide
used in vaccines, and symptoms associated with Parkinson's, amyotrophic
lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease), and Alzheimer's.
Shaw is most surprised that the research
for his paper hadn't been done before. For 80 years, doctors have
injected patients with aluminum hydroxide, he said, an adjuvant that
stimulates immune response.
"This is suspicious," he told the Georgia
Straight in a phone interview from his lab near Heather Street and West
12th Avenue. "Either this [link] is known by industry and it was never
made public, or industry was never made to do these studies by Health
Canada. I'm not sure which is scarier."
Similar adjuvants are used in the
following vaccines, according to Shaw's paper: hepatitis A and B, and
the Pentacel cocktail, which vaccinates against diphtheria, pertussis,
tetanus, polio, and a type of meningitis.
To test the link theory, Shaw and his
four-scientist team from UBC and Louisiana State University injected
mice with the anthrax vaccine developed for the first Gulf War. Because
Gulf War Syndrome looks a lot like ALS, Shaw explained, the
neuroscientists had a chance to isolate a possible cause. All deployed
troops were vaccinated with an aluminum hydroxide compound. Vaccinated
troops who were not deployed to the Gulf developed similar symptoms at a
similar rate, according to Shaw.
After 20 weeks studying the mice, the
team found statistically significant increases in anxiety (38 percent);
memory deficits (41 times the errors as in the sample group); and an
allergic skin reaction (20 percent). Tissue samples after the mice were
"sacrificed" showed neurological cells were dying. Inside the mice's
brains, in a part that controls movement, 35 percent of the cells were
destroying themselves.
"No one in my lab wants to get
vaccinated," he said. "This totally creeped us out. We weren't out there
to poke holes in vaccines. But all of a sudden, oh my God-we've got
neuron death!"
At the end of the paper, Shaw warns that
"whether the risk of protection from a dreaded disease outweighs the
risk of toxicity is a question that demands our urgent attention."
He's not the only one considering that.
The charge that there's a sinister side
to magic bullets isn't new. With his pen blazing, celebrity journalist
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. popularized vaccine scepticism with his article
arguing that mercury in vaccines causes autism, which ran in the June
2005 Rolling Stone and on-line at Salon.com. So did last year's
vaccines-linked-to- autism bestseller, Evidence of Harm by David Kirby
(St. Martin's Press). But there's a potential public-health cost to all
the controversy, according to the B.C. Centre for Disease Control.
"Vaccines have been a victim of their own
success," spokesperson Ian Roe told the Straight in a telephone
interview from Ottawa. Diseases such as polio, which killed his
father-in-law, are almost eradicated and therefore no longer serve as a
warning to parents. But the epidemic threat is still real. "If everyone
decided to not get vaccinated, we'd live in a very different world."
Canada's last national immunization
conference, in December 2004, heard a report that vaccine coverage is
sometimes low. For diphtheria, the Public Health Agency of Canada found
that just 75 percent of two-year-olds are immunized; the target is 99
percent. For tetanus, just 66 percent of 17-year-olds are immunized,
compared to a target of 97 percent.
Dr. Ronald Gold, the former head of the
infectious-disease division at Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children,
told the conference that "we will never be without an anti-vaccine
movement," but "in reality, there is no scientific evidence for these
myths."
Shaw acknowledges that there's a lot of
pressure on parents to vaccinate their children. "You're considered to
be a really bad parent if you don't vaccinate," he said-and your child
can't attend public school. "But I don't think the safety of vaccines is
demarcated. How does a parent make a decision based on what's available?
You can't make an intelligent decision."
Conservatively, he said, if one percent
of vaccinated humans develop ALS from vaccine adjuvants, it would still
constitute a health emergency.
It's possible, he said, that there are
10,000 studies that show aluminum hydroxide is safe for injections. But
he hasn't been able to find any that look beyond the first few weeks of
injection. If anyone has a study that shows something different, he
said, please "put it on the table. That's how you do science."
Neuroscience research is difficult, Shaw
said, because symptoms can take years to manifest, so it's hard to prove
what caused the symptoms.
"To me, that calls for better testing,
not blind faith."
He pointed out that George W. Bush passed
legislation that opens the door for the USA to order a nationwide
anthrax immunization campaign, with the threat of bioterrorism.
Shaw's paper is currently undergoing a
peer review.

"States that are reporting the highest levels of mercury
emissions also have the highest rates of developmental disorders
including autism." -- Dr. John Palmer
The news offered by Dr. Palmer from the
University of Texas and a Harvard Research team is that the mercury in
the air is having its direct effect on our children, playing its part in
the devastating epidemic of neurological disorders including autism.
Diseases caused

AUTISM BABY
TOOTH STUDY
--
There is a new national research study by Professor Jim Adams (recently
on Dateline) to measure the level of toxic metals in baby teeth of
children with autism spectrum disorders and typically-developing
children (unrelated to those with autism). Baby teeth form during
pregnancy and the first few years of life, so they measure the total
exposure to toxic metals during that time. His
pilot study (submitted for publication) found that children with autism
had 2-3x as much mercury in their baby teeth as typical children.
