 Vaccination Research Websites and Books

Websites and books on vaccination research – please think twice before injecting yourself or loved ones with toxins that may or may not prevent a flu, but have direct correlation with decreased immunity, diseases such as E.B.V. A recent University BC study shows that getting the flu shot 5 consecutive years  increases risk of  Alzheimers TEN TIMES! Do you want to take that chance when there are much safer ways to prevent flu?

Vaccine Myth needs to Die!

If the flu vaccine actually worked, out of 100 people vaccinated, how many would be protected from the flu? About 4.

Q& A: Prostate CA, Paw Paw, Vit. C & Selenium

Cancer, Questions and Answers, , , , , , , , ,
Added info: Jan, 2025: at end of the Q&A

QUESTION:

Good Day,   I recently started Paw Paw after reviewing the research. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2008, had a prostatectomy, but my psa is rising this summer. It is currently at 16.5.

I have altered my diet eliminating sugar, relying on proteins and greens and taking other supplements. I feel great but here is my question…
Some prostate cancer formulas (e.g. prosticaid) contain vitamin C and selenium which appear to be a no-no for integration with paw paw. Do you have any experience with this or any opinion?
Thank you for your time and all the work you contribute on this subject.
PP, Ph.D, Clinical Psychologist, CA

 

ANSWER:
In our opinion, there is no problem with Vit. C 500 mg. /day or less, nor with the recommended daily dosage, 50mcg. Selenium. Very high dosages of some anti-oxidants will interfere with the ATP inhibitory action of Paw Paw, which is why they are counter-indicated. We realize  some websites list others, but often do not provide research to back their statements. Our proof is from our successes with clients.
A supporting product that many men use with Prostate Cancer is Saw Palmetto (Serenoa repens)Concentrate , which has no Vit. C, Selenium or other counter-indicated actions with Paw Paw, yet offers excellent nutrition  for the prostate. Many men over 40 years of age also use Men’s Formula, which also contains Gingko and Nettle, for ongoing prostate support and prevention.
If you do not already have it, Lorene Benoit’s book: The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally contains many answers and explanations at to why the program works, as well as case studies, research, recipes and more. You can order via an email, or on the above link.

For further information on health products we have worked with professionally since 1985,  or If we can be of more assistance, please contact our office to set up a private consultation.

 

ADDITIONAL RESEARCH: Jan, 2025:

Covid has helped a lot of people realize that the medical “professionals” are not to be trusted without question! Research into the PCR tests show us that they  inaccurate, were primarily a huge money maker, plus a fear mongering tactic.

My article from 2013 ago warned about Mammograms, PSA and other screening tests.  The PSA , Prostate Specific Antigen, has been questionable since the 1990’s. This particular article presents compelling research into why.

Prostate Cancer: Over-Testing and Over-Treatment

Q & A: Thyroid Cancer and Paw Paw Program

Cancer, Questions and Answers, Thyroid Health, , , , , , , , ,

Questions:

I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and am having surgery in September, 2012.
I will be getting my whole thyroid removed. The doctor told me I will be on synthroid for the rest of my life. I would like to know what I have to take for herbal meds to make me feel normal and healthy again. I am 49 year old weight is 159 lbs.  I believe I am a healthy person as my medical report came back as very good. Except for the cancer. I will be going for radiation as well in about 6 weeks time. Please help me get my mental health, physical health and spiritial health back on track. I have read the book (Paw Paw, the Christopher Columbus Approach to Cancer) which I found very interesting and informative. Thank You!!! So my questions are:
1) what and when can I take the Paw Paw program after my surgery. What should I take for my cancer after surgery and before and after the dreaded radiation? I don’t want this cancer to flare up elsewhere in my body.
2) Do I take anything with and when I have radiation?
3) Are any of the herbal meds going to affect my thyroid medication?
4) Where I live fresh or organic fruits and vegetables are very hard to get. Our closest city is 3 hours away.
5) I was taking curcumin 95% 2 x 2 a day. and also taking 1 tbsp of Vital greens 1 x day. I stopped taking them 7 days before my surgery. The doctors told me to go off all medication prior to surgery.
Please help me with this health issue that took over my body, mind, and spirit:
Thank You very much and can’t wait to hear from you!
( GW from CA)

Answers:

1) Post-surgery: You can start taking the Paw Paw as soon as you are eating after surgery. Follow the recommendations in the book to continue to destroy any cancer cells AND to prevent cancer flare up elsewhere. Certainly post surgery, taking high levels of anti-oxidant immune boosting herbs, such as Zambroza, called Thai Go in the U.S., speed recovery. Also be sure to get your bowels moving within 12-24 hours. If needed, herbal supplements such as LB are very safe and effective, much more so than chemical formulations like Senekot, generally used in hospitals. Both the above are liquid, and can be started as soon as one is able to consume any liquids.

2)  Please determine your need for radiation  by asking the ” Questions to Ask Your Doctor” in my book. Other than the fact that this is probably ‘accepted medical protocol’, how can they determine you will definitely need radiation until they have completed the surgery? Perhaps the surgery will be completely effective, and they are only do this as a prophylactic (preventative) measure, which is very questionable.  Please ask the questions first, as this will determine your long term health outcome. If you do decide to have radiation, then yes, I would continue the Paw Paw program. In addition, there are some natural aids to lessen the side effects of radiation. We could set up a phone consultation to discuss this before you make your decisions.

3) No, none of the herbs in the basic Paw Paw Program will affect your thyroid medication, synthroid.

4) One has to do the best that one can with what is available. Again, we can cover some of this in a phone consult, as I may have some suggestions, such as sprouting to obtain organic greens, no matter where you live, sources to get you set up to accomplish this easily.

5) Pre-surgery: Most doctors do ask people to stop all supplements before surgery, as a few such as higher dosage Vit. C , Gingko Biloba, Red Clover, may thin the blood and there is a concern of excess bleeding. As herbs and supplements are not their area of expertise, they feel safer and save time doing research by requesting stopping of ALL.  Some say 24 hours ahead, some say 3 days, yours is being very cautious with 7 days.

Get a good night’s sleep pre-surgery and visualize a positive outcome! Imagine yourself coming out of surgery with a great report that all was successful.

We look forward to answering any more specific questions on an individual basis. Contact our office at 250-748-6802 to arrange a time.

Q&A: Vaginal Infections

Candida /Fungus, Questions and Answers, Silver, , , , , ,

QUESTION:

 I have a question about the silver sol usage for vaginal yeast infection problems and would like to know how to use silver sol  and how much it will cost on a monthly base. We much appreciate your time. KG

ANSWER:

Yes, Silver Gel has been used successfully for vaginal infections, as research has shown that Silver Gel can kill candida albicans, as well as hundreds of other bacteria  including streptococcus, staphylococcus, salmonella, plus viruses such as Influenza A and Hepatitis B.

Two ways to treat the vaginal infection are: insert the Liquid Silver Guard, about 2 ounces and hold for 12 minutes. Or apply to Silver Gel to a natural fiber tampon and insert into the vagina. The Gel may also be applied with a vaginal syringe, or if you do not have this a squeeze bottle or anything clean with no sharp surfaces. Using a finger may also have some results, although it is best if approximately 1/2 tsp. can be inserted once or twice per day.

To answer your question on cost, this would depend on what country you are in, whether you are a member, and how many Silver Gel tubes you purchase at once. I would estimate that 1 tube would last one month, using 1 tsp. per day. It would definitely be less expensive than any prescription drug, which in our opinion does not work as effectively and frequently causes side effects.

If a person is sexually active, the partner should be treating for Candida as well, or re-infection may occur. In addition follow lifestyle and dietary suggestions,such as those recommended  in Lorene Benoit’s book: The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally.

Refer to a previous article on Candida to understand more about underlying conditions, causes, symptoms and diet.

If you want to order Silver Gel or Silver Guard, at discount prices direct to your home, please contact our office at 250-748-6802 or email: TakeTheNaturalPath@gmail.com. If you prefer to order online at www.naturessunshine.com, select country of your choice and use sponsor #309344 to open your own account and receive a discount.

Are Vitamins Safe? Who to Believe?

Antioxidants, Cancer, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Here is an excerpt from a report recently released by

Orthomolecular Medicine News Service, August 10, 2012

Vitamin therapy pioneer Abram Hoffer, M.D., once stated that the worst fate vitamin bashers could experience would be to never, ever have use of the nutrition supplements they so often criticize.  As for the rest of us, the sky is not falling. There is not even one death from vitamins over the last 28 years. [1] We are a nation of sick, undernourished, and over-medicated people. Half the population is on prescription drugs. [2] Pharmaceuticals, taken as directed, kill over 100,000 per year just in the US. [3] Antibiotics cause 700,000 emergency room visits per year, just in the US. [3] Modern drug-and-cut medicine is at least the third leading cause of death in the USA. Some estimates place medicine as the number one cause of death. [3] Over 1.5 million Americans are injured every year by drug errors in hospitals, doctors’ offices, and nursing homes. [3] If in a hospital, a patient can expect at least one medication error every single day. [3]

Vitamins are not the problem; they are the solution. Taking supplemental B-vitamins, vitamin E and vitamin D each individually reduces lung cancer by 50%. [4-7] Vitamin C stops cancer more effectively than chemotherapy. [8-10] HIV-positive persons taking vitamins are 50% less likely to develop AIDS. [11] And if they do, AIDS patients taking supplements have a 27% lower death rate. [3]

Consumer Reports, September 2012, wrote a report titled,  “10 Hidden Dangers of Vitamins” . Based on the above FACTS, Consumer Reports should stick to testing laundry appliances. That’s what they are good at.

For optimum health follow healthy lifestyle recommendations suggested in Lorene Benoit’s book: The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally

One common factor that links obesity, candida,  diabetes and cancer is insulin resistance. Science is beginning to realize that  insulin resistance is involved in all inflammatory conditions, such as arthritis (inflammation of joints), Alzheimers (inflammation of brain cells), atherosclerosis (inflammation and hardening of the arteries).

Overuse of sugar is linked to all inflammation. This article will explain some of the research behind sugar consumption specifically relating to cancer.

According to Lewis Cantley, director of the Cancer Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center at Harvard Medical School, as much as 80 percent of all cancers are “driven by either mutations or environmental factors that work to enhance or mimic the effect of insulin on the incipient tumor cells,” Gary Taubes reports, adding:

“As it was explained to me by Craig Thompson, who has done much of this research and is now president of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, the cells of many human cancers come to depend on insulin to provide the fuel (blood sugar) and materials they need to grow and multiply. Insulin and insulin-like growth factor (and related growth factors) also provide the signal, in effect, to do it.

The more insulin, the better they do.

Some cancers develop mutations that serve the purpose of increasing the influence of insulin on the cell; others take advantage of the elevated insulin levels that are common to metabolic syndrome, obesity and type 2 diabetes.  Some do both.

Thompson believes that many pre-cancerous cells would never acquire the mutations that turn them into malignant tumors if they weren’t being driven by insulin to take up more and more blood sugar and metabolize it.”

Some cancer centers, such as the Cancer Centers of America, have fully embraced this knowledge and place their patients on strict low-sugar, low-grain diets. But conventional medicine in general has been woefully lax when it comes to highlighting the health dangers of this additive.

It’s quite clear that if you want to avoid cancer, or are currently undergoing cancer treatment, you absolutely MUST avoid all forms of sugar!

Dr. Lustig’s work and his You Tube lecture alone have OVER one million views., even though it’s 90 minutes long. His research proves sugar is a “toxin”. His stance has nothing to do with calories in various sweeteners,: “It’s a poison by itself,” he says.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM&feature=player_embedded

“If Lustig is right, then our excessive consumption of sugar is the primary reason that the numbers of obese and diabetic Americans have skyrocketed in the past 30 years,” the NYT says. “But his argument implies more than that. If Lustig is right, it would mean that sugar is also the likely dietary cause of several other chronic ailments widely considered to be diseases of Western lifestyles — heart disease, hypertension and many common cancers among them.”

In Lorene Benoit’s book: The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally, the direct link to sugar and cancer is clearly expressed. One example is on page 83, where she presents a chart showing the sugar connection with cancer. She also makes dietary suggestions that are easy to follow,  and includes a chapter with some simple recipes to help people transition out of sugar and into a healthier, satisfying way of eating.

One 6 month old baby had a chronic ear infection, 3 different antibiotics and cortisone drops were used to no avail. The grandma purchased Silver Guard and put 4 drops into the ear with an eyedropper 3X/ day. She also gave the baby drops of Silver Guard into the mouth. Within 30 hours the baby totally improved . There was no more green stuff coming out of the ear and no more pain. This program was continued for 4 more days to insure that all the infection was gone.

QUESTION
We have a friend recently diagnosed with Bi-Polar and he wants
to heal it the natural way… I am researching it for him as I’d like
to see him go that way instead of with what the doctor wants him to take.
Any info you could share would be most appreciated, thank you! DL

 

ANSWER
Many respected medical doctors have used proper nutrition to treat emotional and psychological conditions, as well as physical. From Dr. Linus Pauling, nobel prize winner, to Dr. Abram Hoffer (co-authors of the extensive book OrthoMolecular Medicine) are just two of many. OrthoMolecular Medicine  means using vitamins and minerals in therapeutic dosages. Dr. Abram Hoffer was medical advisor of a Mental Institution in Saskatchewan and had far better results treating schizophrenic patients with nutrition than drugs. He also had promising results with cancer patients using a nutritional protocol. Besides being an acclaimed author and running a busy medical, practice Dr. Hoffer lectured internationally for many years, to Medical practitioners and students, so it is surprising to hear some doctors say, “ nutrition is not proven or researched”.

 

Researchers do not definitively understand some conditions, such as Bipolar. Theories range considerably, with no proven hypotheses. A shortage of lithium in the brain is one, just as a shortage of serotonin has been hypothesized to cause depression. More recent research throws considerable doubt on both of these theories.  A study published in the American Journal of Psychiatry  from U. Michigan, 2000, reports “in those with bipolar disorder, two major areas of the brain contain 30 percent more cells that send signals to other brain cells.” This report theorizes that “the extra signal-sending cells may lead to a kind of over-stimulation, which makes sense considering the symptoms of bipolar disorder”. Researchers are quite certain that the neurotransmitter system is at least part of the cause of bipolar disorder, but further research is still needed to define its exact role.

 

Most scientists concur that  psychological disorders are usually caused by multiple interacting  factors,  including biological, (heredity or genetic tendency) and psychological.  One of the best researched current explanations is  the “Diathesis-Stress Model.” The word diathesis means, in simplified terms, a bodily condition that make a person more than usually susceptible to certain diseases. Thus the Diathesis-Stress Model says that “each person inherits certain physical predispositions that leave him or her vulnerable to problems that may or may not appear, depending on what kinds of situations that person confronts” (Bernstein et al., 2000). Durand and Barlow define this model as a “hypothesis that both an inherited tendency and specific stressful conditions are required to produce a disorder” (2000).

A manic or depressive incidence is usually triggered by a stressful life event or issues in the person’s environment. This may include the loss of something or someone, a loved one, job, home; to any change such as the birth of a child, a new job or home, a move, or threatening life situations. Remember that what is a physical, mental, emotional or spiritual stressor to one person may not be to another.  Once the disorder is triggered and progresses, “it seems to develop a life of its own. Once the cycle begins, a psychological or pathophysiological process takes over and ensures that the disorder will continue” (Durand & Barlow, 2000).

We know that stress can be approached naturally via the Four Pillars of Health as described in Lorene Benoit’s book: The Paw Paw Program. To briefly outline,  the four pillars are listed below, with some specifics relating to BiPolar:
  • DIET: superior nutrition through improved diet, much like that recommended in the book. A diet that is beneficial for treatment and prevention of cancer is the same diet that helps improve everyone’s overall health.
  • EMOTIONAL HEALTH: especially stress reduction techniques, including meditation, yoga, relaxation, energy clearing,  counselling
  • EXERCISE:  to stimulate our “feel good” neurotransmitters, chemicals and hormones
  • HERBS and SUPPLEMENTS: some that we have had positive experience with for bipolar are:

 

Daily Maintenance suggestions:
Stress Formula  or  Nervous Support Pak (US) – includes B vitamins, relaxing nervine herbs, or
Chinese Mineral Chi Tonic – to help regulate Chi or energy flow, plus providing trace mineral nutrition
Super Omega 3‘s to support the nervous system – at

 

In times of Manic or Depressive phases, add:
STR-C – (STRess Chinese)  a Chinese constitutional formula that calms an agitated mind – this one specifically to help calm a manic phase
AD-C – (AntiDepressant Chinese) A Chinese constitutional formula that clears stagnant Chi to help relieve depression

 

Therapeutic essential oils of  Ylang ylang, Rose Geranium, and Lemon have also been used as an effective aids.

 

As people with this condition can be helped with natural supplementation,  this is preferable to drug treatment, as all drugs have toxic side effects.  Besides the drug negative effects, many do not address the underlying causes, exacerbate the condition and may cause complications due to their addictive nature. In a crisis, if drugs are required, work at bringing the body back into balance for long term health.
