Q & A: Actinic Keratosis and Paw Paw

Cancer, Questions and Answers, , , , , ,

Question:

I have actinic keratosis all over my body , would paw paw be beneficial to me and clear up my skin? Please put me on your list for free monthly Natural Health Newsletter.  Cathy

Answer: 

Yes Cathy, as actinic keratosis is abnormal cell growth, Paw Paw, Asimina triloba,  would help. For best results, one could take small internal dosages (2- 8 per day) as well as applying Paw Paw directly to the skin surfaces affected.

One way to do this is to open capsules of Paw Paw and mix them with Silver Shield Gel, which also will help to  stop inflammation and promote healing of the lesions. If there are particular spots which can be covered with a bandage, this will hold the herbs onto the affected area longer, but if it is a larger area, just try to apply at least 3 times per day.

Another option is to mix the Paw Paw with Black Ointment, which is available via the US Nature’s Sunshine Products. Please contact our office, TakeTheNaturalPath@gmail.com or 250-748-6802,  to help you place this order and get a free member account which will offer you a discount, ensure you get the correct products, and involve our support. I can also send you a more detailed Fact sheet on any of these products.

In addition, excess sun exposure is to be avoided, and general dietary and lifestyle recommendations as fully explained in my book, The Paw Paw Program – The “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally, would enhance bringing the body into balance for healing.  

The book includes the complete Paw Paw Program for health, plus the sugar and cancer connection .

Hope this helps; look forward to helping you on your journey to optimum health.

Political Scene

If you have not seen Take Back Your Power, please treat yourself to enlightenment. It is a worthwhile $2.99 investment – or look for this film being shown in your area.

Almost every European country has been issuing warnings about wireless radiation and setting safer limits on use of cells phone for children, teenagers and pregnant woman since 1999. Canada and the US seem to be the only 2 developed nations not paying attention and not updating regulations to protect their citizens! See also: People Are Waking Up!

Herbal First Aid with Essential Oils

Aromatherapy, , , , , , , , , , ,

These are 5 pure essential oils, plus one blend that we have come to love over the last 25 years using Aromatherapy as part of our natural healing regime.

**Please note – as links frequently change or break, PLEASE contact us for personal, professional support. We will help you get what you need, with no additional charge. Person to person…… human to human!***

1. Lavender – Good on burns, sunburns, scrapes bruises and insect bites – one of the few essential oils that can be applied to skin “neat”, or undiluted. We love it added to Aloe Vera Gel for all skin challenges, including dry skin, sunburn,  itchy skin, PLUS it helps deter insects!

2. Lemon – Detoxifies the body, purifies drinking water and, along with peppermint and lavender, helps fight allergies. Can also be used in natural insect repellent.

3. Peppermint – Helps relieve headaches when used with lavender, sharpens mentality and is also useful for conditions such as asthma, diarrhea, indigestion, heartburn and itchy skin. Some people are sensitive to Peppermint oil, so it is best mixed with a carrier oil, Aloe Vera Gel or other lotion.

Taken internally, peppermint is a great digestive aid. One or two drops of pure peppermint oil can be put in water as a pre or post meal drink.

4. Frankincense – Good for insect bites, headaches and tension. Has been used with healthy carrier oil for massage for breasts with abnormal growths. This is included in The Paw Paw Program, A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer Can Be Treated Naturally, by Lorene Benoit.

5. Tea Tree Oil  –    An Antiseptic, Anti-fungal, Tissue Healer with many uses:

Externally:  apply directly or dilute with olive oil – boils burns, cankers, cold sores, cuts, earaches, lice, thrush, ticks, leeches, pimples, bites, fungus.

Internally: Candida, infections, bacterial and viral – advice of health professional & very few drops, IF you are using an authentic grade quality.

Tei Fu Oil

I know I said 5, but I have to add this combo, one of our favourite oil blends, which I haven’t left home without since 1990.   Tei Fu Oil, a powerful combination of  Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius,  L-menthol, eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus), DL-camphor, lavender (Lavandula officinalis), wintergreen (Gualtheria procumbens) , clove (Syzygium aromaticum). Some its many uses include:

Externally: (1-4 drops on affected area) Ideal for burns, bites, stings, headache (temples and neck), stiff neck, arthritis pain, tooth-ache, itching, motion sickness, toe fungus, a soak to disinfect fruits & vegetables.

Internally:  (1-2 drops back of tongue, or in water). Ideal for colds, coughs, allergies, sore throat, sinus, stuffy nose, nauseau, vomiting, motion sickness, studying (perks up brain), flu, fever, headache.

Click here to read some success stories with Tei Fu Oil.

Of course, there are others! If you would like my free document with a brief description of over 20 Essential oils and blends, with their uses and benefits, please contact our office, and ask for Petunia Patchouli EOs . One of the most economical ways to get 10 therapeutic quality oils is with the Essential Oils Kit – 10 oils for your own healing and spa experience. Contact us for discount pricing, and these oils – some a $40 value will be yours for only $14-$20 per bottle!

To obtain results with Essential Oils, they need to be of therapeutic quality, which includes proper sourcing, identification, processing and laboratory testing. Essential oils that do not meet these standard may have a pleasant aroma, but will not offer the active chemicals that effect true healing for which aromatherapy is known.

Therapeutic quality oils are available via this office. Please note that as many of our clients are from US, most links will take you to US webpage. Same products, different prices are on Canadian website. For ordering, we can set up a free account for you to direct order at discount – no charge to do this for you. Contact us for support and preferred discount pricing.

Q & A – Paw Paw, myeloma, chemo & other herbs

Cancer, Questions and Answers, , , , ,

 

Question:

My husband has multiple myeloma.  We have been trying to avoid conventional regime. His is very aggressive. Some success and some not. He is 50 so may have high (IL-6 overexpression). Wondering about Paw Paw to help keep the cancer cells from being resistant to herbs, Vit C etc. Thanks. Jennifer

Answer:

Absolutely, I know Paw Paw helps in all types of cancer. I would not say it stops cancer from being resistant to herbs though. In fact, I feel it is THE most effective herb available that I know if in my 35 years herbalism, and the science testing supports this. Perhaps you meant that Paw Paw inhibits chemo resistance? This is explained in my book and on the website.
The book can be ordered fastest and least expensive, by emailing us directly with all necessary information and payment, or you can order on the above site via PayPal.
and
this depends on dosage of Vit. C
If you wish 10 free minutes by phone, you need to send me your ph # as I am out of the country and do not have a number for you to call me. No charge, I have a computer phone which will come up as a California#. 9:30 PST is good for me.

Q&A: Gall Bladder

Liver Health, Questions and Answers, , , , , , ,

Question:

Hello Lorene, I have been having a gall-bladder issue for almost a year along with other problems, and I am wondering if you would be able to help?  Please also put me on your list for free natural health newsletter.  FD, BC

 

Answer:

Yes, we could, as we have helped others with Gall bladder issues.  Of course, every case is different and I would need more detail about issues you are having.

Some general tips may be found on my website blog under Liver article archives; especially the last one, as challenges with gall bladder start with the liver: http://www.naturalpathremedies.com/blog/category/healthy-solutions/liver-health/  and also involve bowel function – i.e. are you having minimum of one healthy bowel movement per day?

There is a Gall bladder flush, but I would need more information specific to your health to recommend this. We can schedule a free 10 min. appointment to see if this may help  and if you wish  to work with us toward your improved health; for more in-depth issues, it is in your best interests to book an appointment.

Here are two general formulas that may benefit you, but there is a lot more that can be done in addition to taking  herbs:
The healthful changes that one should undertake to improve ALL health conditions are very clearly explained in my book:  The Paw Paw Program – The “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally. As well, extensive dietary recommendations are given to help people understand how to eat better. Some recipes are also included.
Please contact us if you wish to obtain either of these formulas or the book, and thank you for contacting us – we are here to help!

Q&A – Scleroderma, Dermatomyositis

Fibromyalgia, Immune Tips, Questions and Answers, , , , , , , , ,

Question:

I have been recently diagnosed with scleroderma and dermatomyositis. I have been trying to control my symptoms with diet, but the Drs are now telling me that my heart is being damaged from the muscle disease and I have to start taking some extremely strong medication which has a side effect of causing cancer. I, of course, do not want to go that route so I am wondering if you have any suggestions that might help.
Thank you for your time. CJ

 

Answer:

Dear CJ,
Sorry to hear about your health challenges. What the docs have to offer is totally unacceptable – choose between heart damage or cancer? No thank you!

There ARE safer and better options. For something this complex, a free 10 minutes or quick email will not likely be of much benefit, but if you send your phone number, I will contact you to see what we can do.  After that it is $1 per  minute, minimum $25. We offer these reasonable fees, as we feel good health should be accessible to everyone.

I will also email you a questionnaire to complete before our 10 mins. and you can either email it back to me, or give me the totals when we speak.

Both of these conditions, in fact most dis-ease, including cancer,  involve inflammation and immunity. This is well explained in my book. It is packed with easy to understand life style suggestions including diet, food choices, pH, recipes, exercise, emotional health and stress, so this could be an invaluable aid to help you  “work with diet”. You can read about it and order on this Paw Paw Program page.

The one general suggestion I would make for inflammation and immunity that helps SO MANY conditions is Zambroza (Canada)and Thai Go (US). With 13 herbs blended for maximum effectiveness, many people get very quick results with many conditions including those you have, fibromyalgia, arthritis, MS and cancer. Please let me know if you would like to try two months of this, as I know you would feel the difference. We can discuss getting this for you at the best price once you email your phone number and we talk.

Q&A: Hepatitis C

Liver Health, Questions and Answers, , , , , , , , , ,

Question:

What would you suggest a person take for Hep C?  My husband  was diagnosed 6 years ago.  We’ve done well with our program, however the Doc still wants him to do the Interferon to kill the Hep C Virus. He did 2 Tiao He cleanses in December, then a Candida cleanse, then a Bod E Cleanse.  His blood work that just came back was the best ever! Took a month to build, then another Tiao He, and now another Bod E Klenz. When he’s not cleansing he takes Concentrated Milk Thistle Extract, Maca, Greenzone, Omega Oils, Probiotics, Mineral Chi, Liquid Chlorophyl and various other things as needed. Just wondering what might kill the Hep C Virus??  submitted by DS, BC.
HRP-C and/or LYM-X  and ???

Answer:

I think your husband is doing an excellent program! It is a general rule of thumb that any cleansing should be balanced by double of building, toning. So doing a 10-15 day Tiao He Cleanse,(US),  followed by a builder such as Milk Thistle Time Release Concentrate  (US & CA) for double the length of time is smart.
Dieter’s Cleanse (US) is safe to take longer term as it already has the 2:1 ration of build and cleanse built into the 30 day package. It is NOT just for dieting, as it is an excellent whole body cleanse and build program. If one needs to lose weight you will; if you don’t carry excess weight, you just lose toxins.

For Canadians contact the author to order the above two US cleanses, or for an excellent whole body cleanse which can be tailored to suit you.

Two other packaged cleanses available in both US and Canada (and many other countries) are Candida Clear (US & CA) and Para Pak (CA)/ Para Cleanse (US).
HRP-C  (called VS-C in US) is an excellent Chinese combination that can be taken to strengthen and balance the immune system, while helping the liver to detoxify. It was created by a Chinese medical doctor specifically for viruses, so is an excellent choice for ongoing maintenance of hepatitis, shingles, herpes, AIDS and Mononucleosis to name a few.

 I would think very carefully before undergoing interferon treatment, as the toxic side effects can be devastating. Remember what is supposed to be the medical maxim: DO NO HARM. I would add to this, “why fix it if it isn’t broken?” Sometimes doctors feel a need to prescribe treatment, even when someone is well, as they are not trained to understand how people can heal themselves naturally.
 
Lastly, I would make sure that in addition to using this excellent herbal program, you are both following the extensive dietary and lifestyle recommendations given in Lorene’s book: The Paw Paw Program – The “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally.

The easy to read explanations help people understand how to eat better, why it is critical to eliminate sugar, pH balance, stress and emotions, and exercise. All the four pillars of health are covered  that are so critical to optimum health and prevention of all chronic conditions and diseases.
Keep up the progress and keep us posted. It is always encouraging to see people taking positive steps for their better health and life!
