The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps

Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith

Another option for a good protein source and companion for detoxification, especially for those who are vegetarian, is called "whole food multinutrients," a comprehensive vitamin and mineral supplement with an added food complex, amino acid complex, antioxidant complex, herbal complex, fruit and vegetable complexes. Look for one made from pea and rice protein. Other important amino acids and antioxidants that you can find in supplement form to support detoxification include the following: ?alpha-lipoic acid ?glutathione ?N-acetylcysteine ?glutamine ?
This is especially true if there is already a chronic disease state or if we are not taking in essential nutrients such as zinc, vitamin A, and selenium, which is necessary for one particular detoxification pathway. Most of us have hundreds of toxins stored in our bodies, all of which strain the natural states of our organs and tissues. The Seven Channels of Elimination 1. Lungs: The lungs dispel toxins with every exhalation. Chief among these toxins is carbon dioxide, a by-product of respiration, the body's release of energy.

New FDA guidelines threaten religious freedoms; Holy water could be regulated as "drugs" and rosaries as "medical devices"

REPPED: The FDA has a long history of attacking and suppressing health freedoms (see our article, Tyranny in the USA: The true history of FDA raids on healers, vitamin shops and supplement companies), but did you know the agency might now be threatening religious freedom, too? Under the new CAM Guidelines issued by the FDA (see Health freedom action alert: FDA attempting to regulate supplements, herbs and juices as "drugs"), any items used in altering or enhancing the "function" of a living person are subject to regulation and control by the FDA.

Supplement Your Prescription: What Your Doctor Doesn't Know About Nutrition

Take 5,000 to 10,000 mg of vitamin C; build up gradually to find the right dose. • If you decide to use an enema, use only saline or water versions, and use them only occasionally—or you can end up making the problem worse. • Don't strain! Sit down and relax; do some deep breathing; elevate your feet slightly; and let nature take its course. If the natural remedies you use end up causing diarrhea, be sure to rehydrate and take your supplements on schedule the following day.

To my knowledge, the FDA has not raided any vitamin shops in recent years, but they've sure cranked up the threatening legal tactics. The legal assault on Lane Labs is a perfect example of the new tactics the FDA seems to now prefer: Put companies out of business legally and financially rather than at gunpoint. It's more palatable to the American people. Any more attacks on NewsTarget? We have not had any more attacks on the NewsTarget website since Wednesday evening of this week, and even that wasn't a full-on DDoS attack.

But that's sort of expected from the medical experts these days who still haven't acknowledged the healing power of vitamin C after almost a hundred years of mounting scientific evidence in favor of the nutrient. So don't expect traditional doctors to offer any help whatsoever on issues of vibrational medicine. Heck, they still think sunlight is dangerous! Other uses of the VRCR machine There are many other applications of this technology as well -- one of those is enhancing the preparation of your food.

Over a period of mere weeks, a combination of "the laughter routine" with massive injections of vitamin C led to a rapid remission of virtually all of his debilitating symptoms. The account he offered of his remarkable recovery ended with a description of himself—who had once been nearly paralyzed—standing in the surf in Puerto Rico, then jogging on the beach, and then finally back at work full-time at the Saturday Review.

As an example, taking vitamin E, which most people consider very safe, along with ginkgo biloba in combination with Coumadin, heparin, or warfarin (all prescription drugs to help thin the blood) increases the risk for subdural hematomas, retinal hemorrhages and internal bleeding.7 The combination of vascular dilation and blood thinning drugs can prove to be deadly. Another supplement that has certain proven benefits that have been overexploited and exaggerated by the supplement industry is St. John's Wort. It has been used for centuries to relieve ulcers and nausea. Today, St.

It contains more conjugated linoleic acid (a component of fat that boosts fat-burning and the buildup of lean muscle mass), more omega-3 fats, and vitamin A. In addition, it has less fat, cholesterol, and calories. Farms that specialize in grass-fed cattle are also better for the environment. Cattle allowed to graze on large areas of land are easier on the land and pollute less than do factory farm animals.
Key ingredients include the B vitamin pantothenic acid, the amino acid L-theanine, and extracts of banaba, Rhodiola rosea, ashwagandha, and eleuthero root (a form of ginseng). SLEEP TIGHT Our knowledge about the power of sleep has gained more clarity in recent years. A new public interest in sleep ignited in late 2004 when scientists demonstrated a strong connection between one's sleep patterns and ability to lose weight, which ignited a new public interest in sleep.

A revolution in the supplement industry occurred in 1940 when the "once-a-day vitamin supplement" was introduced.2 The simplicity and marketing of this product was genius. It held that there were these essential organic substances naturally present in our bodies that in some cases, because of dietary deficiencies or health issues, needed to be supplemented. All you had to do was take a little pill each day to ensure that your body had all the "Recommended Daily Allowances" needed for good health. It was hard to ignore something that sounded so good for you.

Some studies suggest that there is a subgroup of autistic children who actually do improve with vitamin B6 supplementation. The children in the studies usually took between 3.5 mg and almost 100 mg of B6 per day (for every 2.2 pounds of body weight). A doctor carefully supervised them throughout the process, as it is thought that high levels of B6 might have a negative effect on the nervous system, although this has never been confirmed.

Then, in 1994, the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) expanded the meaning of dietary supplements to include "a vitamin or mineral, an herb or other botanical, an amino acid, a dietary substance for use by man to supplement the diet by increasing the total dietary intake, or a concentrate, metabolite, constituent, extract, or combination of the preceding ingredients." The DSHEA also dramatically reduced the FDA control over dietary supplements.

They recommend using the most natural vitamin supplement possible. (See list of sources at end of chapter.) The reason for this is most likely that with the natural vitamins there are no artificial substances which would interact and possibly cause an interaction with the drug residue in the patient's system. vitamin C is always listed as the most critical ingredient these programs use. Unfortunately I have found that most ex-Prozac patients cannot handle vitamin C except for the acerola C because of stomach problems.

And in the test tube, vitamin D kills the cancers that most often kill Americans." Gozei, who had waited patiently as Greg and I talked, hoisted herself to her feet and ambled into the next room. I waited a moment then followed her. She'd gone into the kitchen, a narrow room illuminated only by a small open window that admitted feeble light from the rainy day. I stood quietly and observed. She reached under the sink, folded down a battered wooden box that served as a step, and climbed up to reach the faucet. She filled a teapot, pivoted to put it on the stove and turned on the burner.

What I did, actually, is I bought seven large CD storage towers, then modified them to hold vitamin bottles and herbal tincture bottles. I personally own more nutritional supplements than you see at many vitamin shops... odd, but true. Some people collect lift tickets, I collect nutritional supplements. Continuing with the product recommendations, I'm a huge fan of Recovazon, a product I consider to be a miracle healing medicine. I've used it to speed recovery after sports injuries and heavy training sessions. I also use it any time I feel I'm fighting a cold or flu.

Laetrile, which is also known as amygdalin, was isolated in 1952 by biochemist Ernest Krebs who named it vitamin B1 7 and promoted it as a cancer preventative and cure. Laetrile is found in apricot kernels and contains a cyanide molecule which means it may be toxic in large doses. These concerns have led to laetrile being made illegal as a treatment for cancer in the USA. Laetrile in cancer treatment In a clinical trial in cancer patients reported in 1982, laetrile did not appear to cause shrinkage of tumors or alleviate cancer symptoms.
Scurvy: vitamin C deficiency disease. Seborrhea: a condition in which there is an overproduction of sebum. Sebum: the oily secretion of certain glands in the skin. Serotonin: a chemical involved in the transmission of nerve impulses. Serum: the fluid part of the blood. Sickle cell anemia: a severe, chronic type of anemia characterized by abnormal hemoglobin and red blood cell formation. Simple carbohydrate: a type of carbohydrate, for example lactose, fructose and glucose. Sorbitol: a by-product of glucose metabolism which, in diabetics, can accumulate and lead to complications.
The results showed that high vitamin E levels protected against lung cancer.32 Selenium Epidemiological studies suggest that the risk of cancer is reduced in areas where the soil is high in selenium. Blood samples taken from large groups of people also show that they are more likely to develop cancer if they have low blood levels of selenium and the antioxidant selenium-containing enzyme, glutathione peroxidase. Low serum, dietary and soil selenium levels are particularly associated with lung, gastrointestinal tract and prostate cancers.
The total amount spent on foods and pill supplements for health benefits was $6 billion. Nutritional supplements are big business and marketing hype often starts where the scientific evidence ends. Those who use supplements tend to be older, have higher income and higher education levels. However, statistics also show that those with higher nutrient intakes are more likely to take vitamin supplements. This means that, in many cases, supplements are taken most often by those who need them least.

Planned, organized, and took part in armed "SWAT-style" raids on vitamin shops, pet food stores, and even a church. Knowingly approved harmful food additives for widespread use in the food supply (such as aspartame, which has a rather dubious history and has been proven toxic in several studies), even when its own safety experts recommended denying approval. Allowed the continued legal use of harmful, cancer-causing food additives in the national food supply such as sodium nitrite (which causes cancer and yet is intentionally added to nearly all processed meats).

Although fruit is not a great source of balanced nutrition (vegetables are a better source), most fruits do provide fiber, phytochemicals, vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium and also have a high water content, and are thus very hydrating to the body. Fruit is very sweet and like any food that has a relatively high glycemic index, it can create imbalanced blood sugar levels when eaten in excess and also contribute to the proliferation of Candida (yeast overgrowth) and other conditions. Consequently, it is wise to keep to the daily 2-4 piece limit.
