Candida Albicans / Yeast Infections:

Candida albicans is a form of parasitic yeast which thrives in warm-blooded animals. Candida normally populates the bowel, vagina and mucous membranes. In those with healthy immune systems, it is kept in balance by friendly bacteria such as acidophilus and bifidophilus bacteria. If the balance is upset, the Candida proliferates.

Some news of which everyone should be aware:  NCOW Press Release Oct. 28, 2010  http://www.progressiveconvergence.com/H1N1-RELATED%20miscarriages.htm

 CDC allegedly falsifies reports–ignoring up to 3,587 Miscarriages from H1N1 Vaccine

More facts about Gardasil:  In September 2008, FDA Closing Statement on Gardasil it was noted that 73.3% of girls in the clinical trials developed “new medical conditions” post vaccination. 17 girls died during the clinical trials.

Parents whose children have suffered catastrophic injuries including death following vaccination with Merck’s Gardasil vaccine, and GlaxoSmithKline’s Cervarix, have launched websites to warn other families that the risks may far outweigh any potential benefit claimed by the manufacturers and health agencies who promote these products.

Success Stories

 Testimonials on Lorene Benoit’s book  The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer

From DL, Canada:

  I was most impressed with the clarity and use of “layman’s language”, the small sized book, with easy to read larger print for old eyes, and even little cartoons to break the monotony! I learned so much from “The Paw Paw Program – A Christopher Columbus Approach to Cancer” about cancer that I hadn’t heard about and statistics I didn’t understand! I never knew it was a fungus that feeds on sugar and yeast! I just knew it was a deadly disease that required chemotherapy that made you lose your hair or radiation that sapped your body energy, leaving a person unable to live normally. We are all quite familiar with surgery, possible infections and blood clots, which I wanted none of!! I had only ever had surgery for appendicitis when I was 17 years old. I am now 80 years old and was booked for hip replacement which I wanted done to regain my mobility and life.

My youngest son urged me to get the hip done to restore my `quality of life`, and not to have the radiation he had about 10 years ago. I told this to my daughter, Alexis Gilchrist, who is studying herbology, and she said, `Yes! and then you can go on the Paw Paw Program! “ (Which I knew nothing about – so she gave me one of Lorene Benoit`s books to read).

The information made so much sense to me that it took no time to make my personal decisions! I ordered the necessary herbs to cleanse, build my body and immune system and ones to clean out the cancer cells that may have been left after 3 biopsies. (There were none found in 19 lymph glands tested). I have now had my hip replaced and home doing very well. I believe the herbal build up made me so much healthier that my body responded so well with absolutely no pain that even the doctors were surprised!!!

I was so pleased with the information in the book that I gave it to 3 friends of mine who are retired nurses. They also thought it very good and factual. 2 of the 3 said they were going to buy copies. I intend to continue sharing mine so people will have opportunity to learn as I did from it.

I am taking the Paw Paw program and doing very well!

  Thank you very much for writing the Paw Paw Program book! What an eye-opener!

SN, US:

  I received great news after my scans in August. They showed that there are no new tumors or inflammation anywhere and the tumors that were there have shrunk in size. There is greatly reduced inflammation in the bones of my hips (where doctors had been very concerned before) and the doctors are very pleased with what is happening. I know the pawpaw, as well as the diet and everything else I’m doing, is contributing to my success.                         Thanks.

Derma Segmental Reflexology – DSR deep massage
DSR is a powerful deep massage without any use of oil or lotion. It increases the blood flow, oxygen and nutrient supply. This will release stress and tension in muscles and tissues, while stimulating blood flow to the organs. Toxins stored in fat cells are released with DSR treatment, thereby decreasing the risks of functional disturbances. The DSR massage focuses on the increase of the blood flow, so the muscles get their flexibility back and pain is relieved.
Benefit to you
Pain, stiffness and cramping for many people tend to manifest especially in the neck, shoulder and lower back areas, which can result in spinal deformities. DSR helps to relive this, contributing to greater comfort and an overall feeling of wellness.

Health Tips
First Aid for Burns: Silver Gel heals and prevents infection. If area is too sensitive to apply Gel, Silver Guard as a spray is amazing. Dr. Pedersen has pictures, somewhat gross to look at, of an 80+ year old woman with 3rd degree burns to both legs – completely healed with no scarring using liquid silver Guard as a spray. If you do not have silver on hand, which every household should have, here is a home remedy that is almost as effective. Spray cold water on the affected area until the heat is reduced and the skin stops burning. Then spread egg whites on the affected area. If you can, beat them slightly then apply. The whites when dried and form a protective layer of natural collagen. Continue for at least one hour applying layer upon layer of beaten egg whites. Pain and scarring are reduced and skin regeneration enhanced by both of these treatments.

Wasp Stings: Keep Tei Fu Oil on hand and apply a couple of drops immediately – stops pain and prevents reactions, even in those sensitive. Works on most bites, including spider, bees, mosquitoes.

Video Picks
Burzynski: Cancer Is Serious Business http://vimeo.com/24821365 – fairly long, but it outlines the harassment of Dr. Burzynsky who has had one alternative to medical cancer treatments for years. If you don’t have much time, at least watch the first 3 minutes.

Skin Cancer and Paw Paw

Cancer, , ,

Question from Vicki regarding treatment of skin cancer: “I have been treating skin cancer, basal cell with iodine with pretty good success but the cancer cells are very crafty and they are using my blood to move around my body.  I have just started drinking the juice from the mexican fruit guanabana.  I am getting significant better but I feel the cancer cells are not going to leave me alone.  What is this paw paw stuff?”

Thanks for your question Vicki,
Iodine is an effective adjunct to natural cancer treatment that I refer to in my book,“The Paw Paw Program – A Christophere Columbus Approach to Cancer : The Worls IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally“. You’re right cancer cells ARE very crafty. Paw Paw is an extract from the twigs of the Asimina triloba tree, and it is very effective at stopping crafty cancer cells. It works through 4 primary mechanisms of action:

  1. Inhibits ATP – Adenosine Tri Phosphate, part of energy cycle
  2. Prevents blood vessel growth: Anti-angiogenesis
  3. Depletes DNA RNA  (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid, Ribo Nucleic Acid
  4. Inhibits MDR ( Multiple Drug Resistant) efflux pump

This is explained in more detail on p. 91-94 of my book.

Re: Guanabana fruit:. Our best success working with strong antioxidant beverages has been with a product called Thai Go (Zambroza in Canada and other countries) . This super food has been tested by the Ford Cancer Research to increase death of cancer cells. This is also detailed in my book.

Please contact our office if you would like to order my book or to be able to purchase  the program directly from the company.

CANCER AND THE NATURAL APPROACH

Cancer, Immune Tips, , ,

What to Do When You Have Become a Statistic and

Suggestions to Avoid Becoming One

Newly Diagnosed: Consider consulting with a Natural Health Consultant to help you undertake the following suggestions.  Cancer can be prevented; it can also be reversed.  It will require some lifestyle changes and some effort on your part.  Two important things to know:  (1) people do heal cancer with herbal treatments and other alternative cancer therapies, time proven remedies and (2)  know and believe that you can beat this disease.  Have positive hope, no matter what the prognosis is.  Your body is designed to heal itself and become healthy again but it needs full help from you.

An active role in your therapies will help.  Remember, it’s your body and your call.

  • Remove all toxic chemicals from your food, drinks, air, and home as well as hygienic products.  Stop adding more toxins into your body.  There is much you can do – talk to your Natural Health Care practitioner for ideas as to how and what you can do.  STOP smoking, alcohol, coffee, tea, pop, all refined sugars, are step # one.
  • Balance pH levels of acid and alkaline – greens are your main ally for this. In winter if good quality is not available, use a super balanced formula such as Green Zone.
  • Oxygenate and strengthen your blood with Liquid Chlorophyll, macro and trace minerals, EFAs, and other suggested natural supplements. (These are all part of the Paw Paw Program (see other Cancer entries)
  • If you are strong enough, a variety of cleanses may be suggested for you.  Example:  Liver/Blood, Bowel, Parasite, Lymphatic, Yeast or Heavy Metal Cleanses.
  • Add a natural bowel stimulant with or without fiber if you are not eliminating at least one bowel movement a day.  Two – three is better.  LBS II is an excellent peristalsis aid.
  • Exercise daily to move your lymphatic system.  Your lymph moves only when you do. 10 – 15 minutes two or three times a day will help.
  • Build your Immune System with herbal support such as  Astragalus, Colostrum and Silver Guard (silver sol) all powerful aids for the immune system.
  • Learn how to nourish the body without feeding the cancer cells. Super foods will make a difference.
  • Reduce stress in your life or at the very least, learn how to support your body when under a lot of stress.
  • Your body needs rest to heal.  Take rest breaks during the day and sleep for minimum 8 hours at night.
  • Drink lots of pure water.  6 – 10 glasses a day is usually a good rule to follow, based on weight and activity.  Hot water and herbal teas are also good.  Water helps flush out the toxins from your body.
  • Detoxify, build, detoxify, build – pay attention to your body to know which to do when.
  • MOST IMPORTANT:  This is the easy part.  Follow the Paw Paw program as per directions to start and increase only on the advice of your Natural Health Care Practitioner.  Depending on your cancer, you may be required to take this for 4 months – a couple of years.  Maintenance and prevention are recommended, as all people develop cancerous cell growth and we need to keep it under control.  For those who have had cancer, this is highly recommended. For more information about Paw Paw, ask your NHC.  Paw Paw is an integrative cancer approach, so can be used along with Allopathic Medical Therapy; in fact it can enhance chemotherapy effectiveness.
  • Insure your body has sufficient minerals.  Chinese Mineral Chi or Essential Liquid Minerals are both excellent natural sources of minerals and suggested for a long time.
  • Take Protease Plus Enzymes to help metabolize protein and help breakdown cancer cells.
  • Super Oil will help with your “internal electrical wiring”, and rebuilding healthy cell membranes.
  • Support your body with Zambroza, the strongest blend of antioxidants known to date.
  • Support the area of the body where the cancer is.  You may want to add herbs specific to your type of cancer. For example, for cancer of the prostate, support with Saw Palmetto Extract, Liver with a liver formula, as your NHC recommends.

Your Food:

  • Stay away from “white” foods.  Refer to Super Antioxidant Foods in Paw Paw book.
  • Do not drink cold water with your meals.  If you must drink with your meals, have hot or warm herbal teas, to stimulate not shut down digestion.
  • Choose organic, especially for any animal foods, which should be used sparingly.
  • Avoid dairy foods, except yogurt and butter.  Goat’s milk products are better or dairy alternatives, such as almond, barley, soy or brown rice milk.
  • Do not use the microwave.
  • Do not eat refined sugar products. Learn to recognize different names for sugar.
  • Do not eat refined wheat products; in fact no wheat at all is better!
  • Do not use canned vegetables.
  • Do Not Use chemical cleaners.
  • DO wash all fruits and vegetables in Nature’s Sunshine Concentrate.  Use it in your bath or shower, as shampoo and as your household cleaning agent.
  • DO eat as much raw or slightly steamed organic vegetables as possible. See: Super- Anti Oxidants Foods handout for suggestion, or go over these with your NHC.
  • DO read labels on food.  Know and understand how many toxins are in what is available as “food” today, including artificial sweeteners such as aspartame.
  • Healthy supplements and snacks are available to take to build your body:

§  TNT Bars: contains minimal dairy, this is a Zone balanced bar with protein, carbs and necessary fats

§  SynerProtein Powder: non GMO soy isolate with cruciferous vegetables and phytonutrient concentrate

§  Green Zone Powder – super alkalinizing, spirulina and 32 other super foods concentrated

§  TNT Powder (Total Nutrition Today) – fiber, vitamins and minerals

One of the most informative books is The Paw Paw Program : A Christopher Columbus Approach to Cancer: The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally” . Your copy can be ordered on this blog via PayPal, or contact the author’s office directly at takethenaturalpath@gmail.com or 250-748-6802.

The Paw Paw program is an integrative cancer approach, meaning that it is not counter-indicated with orthodox medical treatment, such as surgery, chemotherapy or radiation. It can enhance the effectiveness and decrease the negative side effects of these approaches. This program is designed to enhance the natural healing abilities of your body, rather than ‘fight’ any particular disease. It is one part of a comprehensive program, including corrective diet, emotional clearing, exercise as required, proper elimination and other natural health and life building aspects.

Remember, cancer can be beaten!  Believe it!  Be proactive in your cure – do not leave it all up to the medical community – work with them to help yourself.

Cancer is considered a lifestyle condition. The healthy lifestyle suggestions in this book will go a long way in prevention of all disease.

Marie’s Success Story

Cancer, Success Stories, , ,

My Cancer Story

I was enjoying my 66th year like I had the several previous years; tending my lakefront garden, baking a variety of goodies, traveling around the island visiting friends and family, volunteering on various committees and overall, filling my life full of time with family, friends in the most beautiful part of the world. But then things began to change.

It all started with a nagging pain in my side. Over time things gradually got worse and pretty soon, I was extremely uncomfortable.  My back hurt, my side hurt, my breathing was labored and my heart was racing.  Trying desperately to find relief from my discomfort, my husband and I made many trips to the emergency ward. The quest for answers included five scans and eight x-rays. Each time a possible diagnoses was offered; costio canda nerve, wet pleurisy, kidney stones, bowel obstructions, irritated bowel, blood clot, arthritis, lupus, polymyalgia rhemaitia, and so on. And then in February 2006, an x-ray showed a shadow on the lower lobe of my left lung.

Tests continued until on November 16, 2006 Dr Dewer, a cancer specialist, did a biopsy and diagnosed mesothelioma. The lung and pleura were fused together. I was informed that the cancer was inoperable. I was too weak for chemotherapy or radiation. The doctors told my family and I that I had possibly six months to live.

I tried to be strong and count my blessings but, as I began tying up loose strings, I found myself thinking with dismay, ” I am not going to make our fiftieth wedding anniversary, seven months away!”  But then, as the weeks passed, I became aware of a deep resolve,  “I AM going to make it!” I didn’t know that things would get much worse before they got better.

With the message from the doctors that there was nothing they could do, our family began looking for alternatives. Upon the advice of our oldest son Ron, I started a program with a Chinese medical doctor. The program kept me alive and I even improved slightly. The regime was intense and at first required that I travel to Victoria regularly. Things were not looking good so my husband and I had a notary come to our home and make out our wills and living wills. While I was fighting for my life, I was continually being faced with my death.

Through the Christmas holidays, birthdays, the changes in the seasons, I continued to struggle – each breath was a chore. I spent most of each day in my reclining chair but little by little I regained some strength and by June 2007 we celebrated our fiftieth wedding anniversary with about two hundred family and friends. I was still very ill and incredibly weak. I think most of our guests thought they were saying goodbye.

I continued with a variety of alternative programs over the next two years and made very gradual improvements. Eventually I hit a plateau. I remember thinking, “If this is as good as it gets, I’d rather be dead.” But then I started a program that changed my life.

In September of 2009, a friend gave me a book about a herb called Paw Paw by Nature’s Sunshine and we started consultations with a herbalist, Lorene Benoit of Duncan. The first thing she said was, “No sugar, wheat nor yeast, all organic food and no chlorine in the water.” She started me on a program including herbs to support my health and Paw Paw to kill the cancer.

Within a month my health was showing significant improvement.

About six months after starting the herbal program I went to the cancer specialist and when I told her I still had a lot of pain on my left side she replied, “Oh, the cancer could have metastasized to the bone.” I felt totally deflated. The doctor wanted me to start chemo and radiation, stop taking the herbs and have a scan. I agreed to have the scan and with hesitation accepted future appointments with the chemo and radiation technicians. After the scan we were elated to see that my lymph nodes were clear, the pancreas, liver and spleen were clear and it appeared that the cancer was receding. I called the chemo and radiation offices, cancelled my appointments and told them that I would call if I needed them in the future.

Since that day my health has continued to improve. I continue my regular consultations with Lorene Benoit so that the herbal program can be adjusted as my body continues to heal. After sitting for years with my left side clenched I found myself hunched and stiff so I visit Greg Augustine (Soma for Living) for regular sessions designed to aid my healing. I am improving every day, one foot in front of the other and now one year later I am walking over one and one half miles every day, tending our lakefront garden, traveling around the island visiting family and friends in the most beautiful place on earth.

Sincerely Marie Augustine

Time is allotted for general questions about the program. Please contact our office for more specifics, or to book a phone consultation if you agree with the principles Donna teaches. We, at Benoit & Associates Health, know this program works. See “Marie’s story” on this blog, or email our office to receive MANY case histories of success in healing all stages and types of cancer. The Paw Paw program specifics are in our Cancer section on this blog.

The number for conference calls is: 1-951-262-4343 , then access code  492815 #. Contact our office for past recordings of these calls. 250-748-6802    or    takethenaturalpath@gmail.com

Paw Paw Program – How It Works

Cancer, Healthy Solutions,

Paw Paw is an herb that is part of  a natural program for cancer treatment. The correct species of this herb which has more than 30 years research, is  Asimina triloba, which is native to the eastern U.S. Over fifty bio-active components of Paw Paw have been discovered in this particular species, specifically made from the tree twigs of a certain age. The major active compounds, which have been found effective in this cancer research, are called the annonaceous acetogenins. These have been described in a series of research papers as representing the most potent, major, bio-active structural types of acetogenins. These are only found in the standardized Paw Paw concentrate available from Nature’s Sunshine. The critical difference is in the quantity and quality of the active ingredient or acetogenins, found in this species.

The research from Purdue University by Dr. Jerry McLaughlin’s group, as well as Wayne State University, has shown that Paw Paw works as a chemotherapeutic agent, with no side effects.  It has been shown to work via four specific mechanisms:

1)    The acetogenins in Paw Paw modulate the production of ATP in the mitochondria of abnormal cells. All cells require energy to reproduce, but cancer cells are programmed to replicate at up to 17 times the rate of normal cell reproduction. Because acetogenins modulate the production of ATP, cancer and other abnormally growing cells do not thrive, while healthy, normally reproducing cells are unaffected. More technically, the acetogenins are potently cytotoxic and inhibit complex I in the electron transport system in mitochondria; the effect being depletion of ATP levels and induced apoptosis. They also inhibit the NADH oxidase found in the plasma membranes of tumour cells. This selective targeting affects the viability of abnormal cells will enhance the overall health of the body.

2)    Paw Paw helps inhibit the growth of blood vessels that nourish cancer cells. This process is called anti-angiogenesis.

3)    Paw Paw depletes the DNA and RNA building blocks necessary for new cell division.  Although Paw Paw exhibits this action on abnormally growing cells, it has also been shown, in a recent clinical study with over 100 participants, that it supports the body’s normal cells. Studies with cell cultures of normal versus cancerous cells showed early on that the acetogenins are relatively less toxic to normal cells; indeed, certain acetogenins are often selectively cytotoxic toward one or only a few cancer cell lines. This means that whereas many cytotoxic drugs used cause cachexia, (weight loss), and energy loss, Paw Paw has shown opposite results.

4)    The acetogenins are especially effective against multi drug resistant tumours (MDR), which can become resistant to the chemotherapy drugs. Paw Paw limits the ATP – dependant efflux pump (glycoproteins) function. Therefore Paw Paw can be toxic even to cancer cells that are drug resistant.

Paw Paw is a valuable tool in strengthening and supporting the immune system. Even if one chooses to use chemotherapy treatment, Paw Paw can actually enhance the effects of chemotherapy, as acetogenins are especially effective against multi-drug resistant (MDR) tumours, as per #4 above. (Please check out chemotherapy statistics and side effects before you make this decision.)

Previous clinical studies of the acetogenins in cancer patients have been thwarted due to their unavailability in pure form. Other related species such as graviola, guanabana, and Brazilian paw paw contain only the less potent monotetrahydrofuran acetogenins, and do not maximize acetogenin levels or standardize the product to assure consistent potency.

Paw Paw works in conjunction with enzymes, correct balance of essential fatty acids, minerals, immune enhancers, such as Silver Shield, Zambroza, Astragalus, and dietary, emotional and other lifestyle recommendations to ensure a holistic approach.
