Black Seed – ‘The Remedy For Everything But Death’

This humble, but immensely powerful seed, kills MRSA, heals the chemical weapon poisoned body, stimulates regeneration of the dying beta cells within the diabetic’s pancreas, and yet too few even know it exists. The seeds of the annual flowering plant, Nigella Sativa, have been prized for their healing properties since time immemorial.
Black Seed – ‘The Remedy For Everything But Death’ – Black Seed Healing
While frequently referred to among English-speaking cultures as Roman coriander, black sesame, black cumin, black caraway and onion seed, it is known today primarily as black seed, which is at the very least an accurate description of its physical appearance. The earliest record of its cultivation and use come from ancient Egypt. Black seed oil, in fact, was found in Egyptian pharoah Tutankhamun’s tomb, dating back to approximately 3,300 years ago.[i]
In Arabic cultures, black cumin is known as Habbatul barakah, meaning the “seed of blessing.” It is also believed that the Islamic prophet Mohammed said of it that it is “a remedy for all diseases except death.” Many of black cumin’s traditionally ascribed health benefits have been thoroughly confirmed in the biomedical literature. In fact, since 1964, there have been 458 published, peer-reviewed studies referencing it.
We have indexed salient research, available to view on GreenMedInfo.com on our Black Seed (Nigella Sativa) page, on well over 40 health conditions that may be benefited from the use of the herb, including over 20 distinct pharmacological actions it expresses, such as:
Analgesic (Pain-Killing)
Anti-Bacterial
Anti-Inflammatory
Anti-Ulcer
Anti-Cholinergic
Anti-Fungal
Ant-Hypertensive
Antioxidant
Antispasmodic
Antiviral
Bronchodilator Gluconeogenesis Inhibitor (Anti-Diabetic)
Hepatoprotective (Liver Protecting)
Hypotensive Insulin Sensitizing
Interferon Inducer
Leukotriene Antagonist
Renoprotective (Kidney Protecting)
Tumor Necrosis Factor
Alpha Inhibitor
These 22 pharmacological actions are only a subset of a far wider number of beneficial properties intrinsic to the black seed. While it is remarkable that this seed has the ability to positively modulate so many different biological pathways, this is actually a rather common occurrence among traditional plant medicines.
Our project has identified over 1600 natural compounds with a wide range of health benefits, and we are only in our first 5 years of casual indexing. There are tens of thousands of other substances that have already been researched, with hundreds of thousands of studies supporting their medicinal value (MEDLINE, whence our study abstracts come, has over 600,000 studies classified as related to Complementary and Alternative Medicine).
Take turmeric, for example. We have identified research indicating its value in over 600 health conditions, while also expressing over 160 different potentially beneficial pharmacological actions. You can view the quick summary of over 1500 studies we have summarized on our Turmeric Research page, which includes an explorative video on turmeric. Professional database members are further empowered to manipulate the results according to their search criteria, i.e. pull up and print to PDF the 61 studies on turmeric and breast cancer. This, of course, should help folks realize how voluminous the supportive literature indicating the medicinal value of natural substances, such as turmeric and black seed, really is. Black seed has been researched for very specific health conditions. Some of the most compelling applications include: Type 2 Diabetes: Two grams of black seed a day resulted in reduced fasting glucose, decreased insulin resistance, increased beta-cell function, and reduced glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in human subjects.[ii]
Helicobacter Pylori Infection: Black seeds possess clinically useful anti-H. pylori activity, comparable to triple eradication therapy.[iii] Epilepsy: Black seeds were traditionally known to have anticonvulsive properties. A 2007 study with epileptic children, whose condition was refractory to conventional drug treatment, found that a water extract significantly reduced seizure activity.[iv]
High Blood pressure: The daily use of 100 and 200 mg of black seed extract, twice daily, for 2 months, was found to have a blood pressure-lowering effect in patients with mild hypertension.[v]
Asthma: Thymoquinone, one of the main active constituents within Nigella sativa (black cumin), is superior to the drug fluticasone in an animal model of asthma.[vi]
Another study, this time in human subjects, found that boiled water extracts of black seed have relatively potent antiasthmatic effect on asthmatic airways.[vii]
Acute tonsillopharyngitis: characterized by tonsil or pharyngeal inflammation (i.e. sore throat), mostly viral in origin, black seed capsules (in combination with Phyllanthus niruri) have been found to significantly alleviate throat pain, and reduce the need for pain-killers, in human subjects.[viii]
Chemical Weapons Injury: A randomized, placebo-controlled human study of chemical weapons injured patients found that boiled water extracts of black seed reduced respiratory symptoms, chest wheezing, and pulmonary function test values, as well as reduced the need for drug treatment.[ix]
Colon Cancer: Cell studies have found that black seed extract compares favorably to the chemoagent 5-fluoruracil in the suppression of colon cancer growth, but with a far higher safety profile.[x] Animal research has found that black seed oil has significant inhibitory effects against colon cancer in rats, without observable side effects.[xi]
MRSA: Black seed has anti-bacterial activity against clinical isolates of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus.[xii]
Opiate Addiction/Withdrawal: A study on 35 opiate addicts found black seed as an effective therapy in long-term treatment of opioid dependence.[xiii]
Sometimes the biblical reference to ‘faith the size of a mustard seed moving mountains’ comes to mind in connection with natural substances like black seeds. After all, do seeds not contain within them the very hope for continuance of the entire species that bore it? This super-saturated state of the seed, where life condenses itself down into an intensely miniaturized holographic fragment of itself, promising the formation of future worlds within itself, is the very emblem of life’s immense and immortal power.
If we understand the true nature of the seed, how much life (past, present and future) is contained within it, it will not seem so far-fetched that it is capable of conquering antibiotic resistant bacteria, healing the body from chemical weapons poisoning, or stimulate the regeneration of dying insulin-producing beta cells in the diabetic, to name but only a fraction of black seed’s experimentally-confirmed powers.
Moving the mountain of inertia and falsity associated with the conventional concept of disease, is a task well-suited for seeds and not chemicals. The greatest difference, of course, between a seed and a patented synthetic chemical (i.e. pharmaceutical drug), is that Nature (God) made the former, and men with profit-motives and a deranged understanding of the nature of the body made the latter.
The time, no doubt, has come for food, seeds, herbs, plants, sunlight, air, clean water, and yes, love, to assume once again their central place in medicine, which is to say, the art and science of facilitating self-healing within the human body. Failing this, the conventional medical system will crumble under the growing weight of its own corruption, ineptitude, and iatrogenic suffering (and subsequent financial liability) it causes. To the degree that it reforms itself, utilizing non-patented and non-patentable natural compounds with actual healing properties, a brighter future awaits on the horizon. To the degree that it fails, folks will learn to take back control over their health themselves, which is why black seed, and other food-medicines, hold the key to self-empowerment. [i]

Herbs For Joint Pain

A debilitating condition, joint pain can be experienced as a result of ageing, over-use, or autoimmune diseases attacking the joints and their surrounding tissue. [1] If you have tried all available traditional medications yet failed to get the results you expected, this would not be surprising as many drugs only alleviate the symptoms without targeting the underlying cause. [2] Several alternative herbal treatments have been researched – and lab studies suggest that these may even have the potential to address both symptoms and origin in lab studies. Below are 10 herbs considered useful for managing joint pain:

10 Herbs for Managing Joint Pain:

Arnica

This is a popular herb present in various commercial ointments externally applied to the skin. When applied as a balm or cream, arnica has been shown to serve as a natural pain reliever to alleviate soreness and stiffness. [1] The evidence of arnica’s clinical value is rich that when a study was conducted to compare its effects with ibuprofen in 204 patients with active hand osteoarthritis, there was no difference found in pain and hand function improvements between ibuprofen and arnica tincture after 3 weeks of treatment. This study suggests that arnica formulation is comparable to ibuprofen in treating hand osteoarthritis, yet without the potential side effects of ibuprofen. [3]

Ginger

Ginger is traditionally known to aid nausea but research has also found convincing evidence of its success in combating arthritis. [2] Its active ingredients, gingerols, possess anti-inflammatory characteristics responsible for its medicinal actions. Ginger has been found to relieve pain by preventing cytokine formation, an immune chemical that triggers inflammation. Consequently, one 3 year study discovered that 75% of the participants with rheumatoid arthritis experienced improvements in pain and swelling after using powdered ginger. [1]

Stinging Nettle

Its name may sound daunting but once you have infused this herb in tea, skin rash that would be brought about by this plant’s hairs will naturally be neutralized. After concocting tea made from dried or fresh leaves of stinging nettle, it may be used to alleviate pain linked to joint pain, arthritis and gout. [4] Exploratory studies that investigated the value of stinging nettle as a useful, safe and cheap therapy in treating joint pain have discovered nettles as being very effective to the extent that some subjects believed they have been cured by it without any major side effects. [5]

Cayenne

Researchers discovered how the interesting mechanism behind rubbing cayenne works to relieve joint pain; cayenne, through the presence of its active ingredient capsaicin, acts as a counterirritant to the pain by producing mild irritation to distract your nerves from the more severe joint pain. [2] Eventually, repeated application of cayenne pepper can significantly reduce arthritic pain. [4] Because of cayenne’s anti-inflammatory properties, experts believe that it can also ease gout and gut-related pain like ulcers. [1]

Boswellia

This tree commonly found in India attributes its therapeutic value to its gum which promotes anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic and analgesic activities. A 2003 randomized controlled study that evaluated the efficacy, safety and tolerability of boswellia extract in 15 patients with osteoarthritic knees concluded that this herb can decrease knee pain and frequency of swelling, increase knee flexion and walking distance after 8 weeks of usage with minimal side effects. [6] Moreover, boswellia is believed to prevent invasion of inflammatory white cells into damaged issue making it a natural pain killer for osteoarthritis, gout and possibly, other types of arthritis as well. [1]

Burdock

According to research, when it comes to joint pains, increasing your intake of foods and supplements rich in essential fatty acids can really of great help. Aside from its sterol and tannin content, burdock contains high levels of essential fatty acids which are known for their anti-inflammatory effects. [7]

Burdock root contains analgesic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that help in reducing inflammation and pain associated with arthritis and other degenerative diseases. Studies show that burdock root helps in eliminating the discomforts caused by arthritis such as stiffening, swelling, tenderness, pain when moving. [8] Though generally safe to use, some have said that burdock should not be used long-term. [9]

Flax

For over 7,000 years, flax has been widely cultivated because of its powerful healing compounds. This potent herb is known for its Omega 3-ALA content which is noted for its ability to fight against inflammation. Omega 3 fatty acids actually limit the inflammatory reactions caused by gout and joint pains. The use of flaxseed of oil proves to be effective in lessening the intensity of severe and sudden pain and swelling of the joints. [10]

Turmeric

Known for its anti-inflammatory effects, turmeric is a powerful herb that aids in the treatment of a wide range of health conditions including gout, arthritis and joint pains. This excellent pain reliever works because of its curcuminoids and curcumin contents that help in reducing inflammation. [11]

In a study conducted at the University of Arizona, it was found out that intake of turmeric really helps in dealing with inflammation. Results showed that turmeric reduced swelling to a certain degree. Researchers concluded that turmeric works by blocking down the production of protein on genes that tell the tiny blood vessels to swell and grow. [12]

This famous yellow-orange spice is used to help people suffering from achy and sore joints. The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine published a study in 2009 which compared the effects of curcumin, an active ingredient of turmeric, and ibuprofen to 107 subjects who were suffering from knee osteoarthritis. Results showed that curcumin was as effective as ibuprofen in improving knee function and in alleviating pain. [13]

Licorice

Licorice is probably one of the most popular herbs for joint pains. It works by resembling the activities of the body’s natural cortiscosteroids that help in relieving inflammation. Licorice also works by eradicating free radicals on the affected areas as well as in inhibiting the production of enzymes that contribute to inflammation. When used as a supplement or tea, licorice helps in controlling the body’s production of cortisol hormones which eases the pain associated with arthritis and joint pain. [14]

Feverfew

A native herb from the Balkan Peninsula and Europe, feverfew also proves to be an excellent herb in relieving joint pain. Research showed that this herb is capable eradicating inflammation in tissues and joints which normally cause pain. Its parthenolide content inhibits the release of histamine, serotonin and other inflammatory agents that trigger the spasm of the blood vessels, and promote inflammation. Like aspirin, feverfew works by reducing the inflammation and intensity of pain throughout the body. [15]

Notes Do not expect these herbs however to instantly cure joint pain overnight. Conversely, herbs generally do take longer to work than traditional medications especially if you are taking them internally for joint pain relief. [1] However, their cumulative effects are also more effective and longer-term, aside from being safer given the right dosage. Be diligent also in understanding the safety and contraindications of the herbs you are considering. If in doubt, or if you are taking prescription meds already, it’s best to consult a physician before taking herbs. You can learn about many of the herbs on this site; however you can also search on “________ (herb name) safety” or _______ contraindications. This is not medical advice.

why eat apricot kernels?

Apricot kernels are, like most nuts and seeds, very nutritious. Among the nutrients they contain is one called amygdalin, which is also known as vitamin B17. This attacks cancer cells, and thus can help prevent cancer from breaking out in our bodies.

Amygdalin (vitamin B17) is contained in many hundreds of foods, but ones that are particularly rich in amygdalin have disappeared to a large extent from our Western diet. Peoples throughout the world who still eat a traditional diet, have been found to be largely free from cancer. These diets are rich in foods containing amygdalin.

Apart from apricot kernels, examples of other amygdalin rich foods are bitter almonds (amygdalin tastes bitter – sweet almonds do not contain it, and apricot kernels that are not bitter do not contain it). Other foods containing amygdalin are apple pips, grape seeds, millet, broad beans, most berries, cassava and many other seeds, beans, pulses and grains – but not ones that have been highly hybridised (African orange pips contain some amygdalin, but American ones don’t, wheat is low in amygdalin).

There are many ways you can fight cancer. One is to build up the immune system so that it is very strong. Another is to supplement with antioxidants which fight carcinogens in the body. However, amygdalin seems to be unique in the way that it directly attacks cancer cells.

Amygdalin was first extracted and named over one hundred years ago and has been listed in pharmacological dictionaries since that time as being non-toxic. However it does have a poison locked away in it – one of its constituents is cyanide. But, locked into the compound amygdalin, it is chemically inert and harmless to normal living tissue. In the same way common salt (sodium chloride) is safe to eat, and in fact is necessary to the body. But this also has locked away in it a poison – chlorine. Of course if you ate too much salt at one time you would be ill. This is true of any substance, and would equally apply to apricot kernels. However, amygdalin is less toxic than salt, and less toxic than sugar.

We are told that our bodies are creating cancer cells all the time. Normally the immune system can deal with them. However at times of stress or in a particularly weak part of the body, or under extreme or regular exposure to carcinogens, then the multiplication of cancer cells may become too great for the immune system to handle. Amygdalin comes alongside the immune system and attacks the cancer cells directly. The cancer cells have within them an enzyme which unlocks the poison in the amygdalin, and in this way the cancer cells are destroyed. Normal, healthy cells do not have this enzyme. In fact they have a different enzyme which unlocks the amygdalin in a different way and releases nutrients and also a neutralising agent which would neutralise any of the poison it came into contact with. Researchers at Imperial College London have been experimenting using cyanide to kill cancer cells, and state that any poison that escaped into the bloodstream would be quickly neutralised by the liver. (See reports in UK national newspapers of 7th September 2000).

Amygdalin is sometimes referred to as Vitamin B17 and is found in nitriloside rich fruits and plants. In its extracted, pure, concentrated form it is known as laetrile. Laetrile is used as the main therapy, but supported by other non-toxic therapies and good nutrition, in treating cancer sufferers in some clinics.

For prevention, however, Dr Ernst T Krebs Jr., the biochemist who first produced laetrile (concentrated amygdalin) in the 1950s, recommended that if a person would eat ten to twelve apricot kernels a day for life, then barring the equivalent of Chernobyl, he is likely to be cancer free. At the beginning of the 21st century it is expected that one in eight women in the UK will get breast cancer and one in nine men prostate cancer. If other types of cancer are added in, then no family is likely to be free. Therefore the suggestion that eating 10 – 12 kernels per day for life is likely to prevent cancer – is very good news indeed.

NB the kernels should be chewed, or ground and sprinkled on food or in fruit juice, and only five or six (1½ teaspoons ground kernels) taken at one time/in one hour.

Please also note apricot kernels may lower blood pressure.

Please see ‘Summary of suggestions for eating apricot kernels’.

Most of this information comes from World Without Cancer by G. Edward Griffin (American Media, California, 1974 and 1997). For testimonies of cancer sufferers treated with laetrile and nutrition therapy read Alive and Well (American Media, California, 1994) by Philip E Binzel, Jr., M.D. If you have cancer see Summary of amygdalin/vitamin B17 therapy.

Kernels can be ordered from Dayspring on 01483 418258.

Taking the above preventative action can cost less than a pint of beer or a cup of coffee per week.

How to avoid Cancer

cancer

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY …

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person’s lifetime.

3. When the person’s immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to STARVE the cancer cells by not feeding it with foods it needs to multiple.
What cancer cells feed on:
a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Note: Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg’s aminos or sea salt.

b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells will starved.

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.

d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes t o nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells.
To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).

e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water–best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines will become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body’s killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.

14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body’s own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body’s normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor.
Anger, unforgiving and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

Abrikozenpitten, B17 en kanker

Als het gaat om wat goed voor je is, wat goed voor je lichaam is, dan zou je er verstandig aan doen op zoek te gaan in de natuur.

De natuur heeft voor praktisch alles een oplossing; zo ook tegen kanker. Eén ervan lijkt te simpel om waar te zijn, kan scheikundig verklaard worden en wordt wereldwijd door mensen met veel succes toegepast.Het eten van abrikozenpitten.

Vitamine B17 was zo’n 20 jaar geleden het onderwerp van heftige meningsverschillen toen enkele van de grootste wetenschappers ter wereld beweerden dat, wanneer juist gebruikt, de componenten van de bittere  abrikozenpit het 100% onmogelijk maken om kanker te ontwikkelen en de bestaande kanker in de meeste gevallen zouden kunnen doden.

De farmaceutische bedrijven sprongen hier onmiddellijk op in en eisten dat hier studies naar uit zouden worden gevoerd. De resultaten van deze studies kunt u vinden in het boek “World without Cancer”, door G. Edward Griffin.

Vitamine B17, ook bekend als Laetrile en Amygdalin komt voor in de meeste fruitzaden en in het bijzonder in abrikozenpitten. Dat abrikozenpitten kankerbestrijdend zijn is al meer dan 35 jaar bekend. Toen 35 jaar geleden al beweerde men dat kanker een tekortheidsziekte is, en dat men wanneer men ongeveer 7 abrikozenzaden per dag eet, men nooit kanker kan ontwikkelen. Net zoals men nooit scheurbuik krijgt als je een sinaasappel per dag eet; of nooit pellagra kan ontwikkelen als men iedere dag bepaalde vitamines B neemt.

De geneesmiddelenindustrie drong er sterk op aan om het verkopen van “ruwe” abrikozenzaden en/of vitamine B17 samen met informatie over haar werking op kanker onwettig te verklaren.

En tot op de dag van vandaag is het erg moeilijk om aan de goede luchtgedroogde abrikozenpitten te komen koop ze hier. Wel zijn de zon gedroogde pitten verkrijgbaar, hierin zijn echter alle belangrijke enzymen gedood. Deze bijna niet-werkende abrikozenpitten raden wij dus af.

Farmaceutische bedrijven voeren slechts studies naar chemische producten uit die zij zelf hebben uitgevonden en waarvan zij aan het eind van de studie, als het medicijn goedgekeurd wordt, als enige rechten op de verkoop hebben patent. Zij investeren nooit in producten die niet gepatenteerd kunnen worden of zonder problemen in de supermarkt verkocht kunnen worden. Lees het hele artikel op Bionnk.nl

One dose of coconut oil boosts brain function and cognitive performance

It’s amazing how coconut oil has recently been acknowledged for the healthy oil that it is after having been vilified for decades as a heart attack oil. Now it’s been discovered to boost even brain health.

Defaming coconut oil saturated fat was part of the 1950s creation of low and no fat foods, margarine, and hydrogenated trans-fatty cooking and salad oils, which have recently been proven as actually detrimental to overall health.

The different types of triglycerides in fats

PF Louis Natural News April 7, 2013

High triglyceride blood readings are red flags for obesity, diabetes, and heart health issues. Most dietary fats contain long chain triglycerides (LCT), which are not easily metabolized and can be stored as fatty deposits in one’s body.

Long chain triglycerides contain chains with 14 to 18 carbon atoms. But coconut oil contains medium chain triglycerides (MCT) with shorter chains of 5 to 12 carbon atoms, which are easily metabolized by the liver to produce ketone bodies that can replace glucose as metabolic fuel.

As we age, the brain’s ability to metabolize glucose for energy wanes, especially for those who have a metabolic disorder or insulin resistance. But MCT-created ketones can be used as cellular fuel in the brain when glucose is not available.

Study: Coconut oil improves cognitive ability

As far back as 2004, a study published in the journal Neurobiology of Aging determined that coconut oil MCTs improved cognitive function among older folks with memory problems and even Alzheimer’s disease.

They took 20 subjects and randomly fed them coconut oil or placebos on different days. Some of the Alzheimer’s group demonstrated improved scoring on a special Alzheimer’s cognitive rating scale, and all of them demonstrated better paragraph recall shortly after taking each dose of coconut oil.

This wasn’t a long term study. They got immediate positive cognitive and memory results from single doses of coconut oil compared to placebos.

So why wasn’t this publicized by the mainstream media (MSM) and reported to medical practitioners everywhere? Maybe because Big Pharma was trying to synthesize and patent a ketone body producing pharmaceutical for the increasing Alzheimer’s disease market.

A dramatic true story confirming coconut oil’s efficacy

Around 2009-10, MD Mary Newport’s husband had deteriorated from Alzheimer’s so badly he couldn’t draw a simple illustration of a clock or perform daily functions without being micromanaged.

Since the Alzheimer’s drug developed in 2004 was not effective, Dr. Newport tried to get him into a trial for a new Alzheimer’s drug. But he was so bad off he didn’t qualify.

After discovering that this new drug was a synthetic version of MCTs for creating ketone bodies and improving brain function, she researched and realized that palm and coconut oils also contained MCTs.

After feeding her husband coconut oil, he started making a remarkable comeback from almost total dementia to being able to start and finish tasks and remember people and events.

Dr. Newport observed that only two doses spaced eight hours apart were sufficient, while the pharmaceutical version required doses every three hours (http://www.naturalnews.com/030373_coconut_oil_Alzheimers_disease.html)

If Mary would have enrolled her husband into that 2009-10 Alzheimer’s drug trial, she could have lost him completely.

The drug trial at that time was halted early because of nine deaths among those taking higher doses(http://www.naturalnews.com/028753_Alzheimers_drug_trials.html).

Newport’s success without side effects places coconut oil as the dementia food medicine of choice over expensive and harmful pharmaceuticals. Because they went viral on the internet with their experience, several others experiencing Alzheimer’s or memory problems have benefited from coconut oil.

Here’s a video interview of Dr. Newport (http://tv.greenmedinfo.com).

Mega hydrate

Phi Sciences

Crystal Energy Remove heavy metal toxins — EVERY time you take a drink!

Supplement Facts Mercury, lead, cadmium, PCBs… the list of toxins in our environment is staggering. So are the lists of diseases associated with them — everything from Parkinsons, Alzheimers, birth defects, decreased intelligence and so on. Worse yet most doctors do not offer any safe ways to pull these toxins out of your system (called “chelation”).

However, for the past decade millions of customers around the world have known that Dr. Patrick Flanagan’s patented product Crystal Energy will pull these toxic metals out of your system. Crystal Energy encloses the toxins in his revolutionary nano-sized (that’s 1 billionth of a meter) Flanagan Microcluster®. The process works by tiny little spheres made of silica that literally encapsulate the toxic metals. Once enclosed, these toxins are rendered harmless and then your body can naturally dispose of them.
The disposal process is made even easier because water with the Flanagan Microcluster® hydrates semi-permable membranes (i.e. your cells) 6 times faster than regular bottled and tap water without it. THAT MEANS THE TOXINS GET OUT FASTER AND THE NUTRIENTS GET INTO YOUR CELLS TO AID REPAIR. The quality of the water you drink has a profound effect on your health and well-being, and Crystal Energy® improves your drinking water ability to hydrate your cells — and it tastes great!

Abrikozenpitten

Vitamine B17 was zo’n 20 jaar geleden het onderwerp van heftige meningsverschillen toen enkele van de grootste wetenschappers ter wereld beweerden dat, wanneer juist gebruikt, de componenten van de bittere abrikozenpit het 100% onmogelijk maken om kanker te ontwikkelen en de bestaande kanker in de meeste gevallen zouden kunnen doden.

De farmaceutische bedrijven sprongen hier onmiddellijk op in en eisten dat hier studies naar uit zouden worden gevoerd. De resultaten van deze studies kunt u vinden in het boek “World without Cancer”, door G. Edward Griffin. Vitamine B17, ook bekend als Laetrile en Amygdalin komt voor in de meeste fruitzaden en in het bijzonder in bittere abrikozenpitten. Dat abrikozenpitten kankerbestrijdend zijn is al meer dan 35 jaar bekend.

Vitamine B17 is de officiële naam voor de gezuiverde vorm van Amygdalin. Deze gezuiverde vorm wordt ook Lavo-Mandelonitrile, kortweg Laetrile genoemd. Laetrile kreeg haar officiële vitaminestatus in 1952, op voordracht van Dr. Dean Burke, medeoprichter van het Nationale Instituut tegen Kanker.

Het gebruik van Amygdalin (Laetrile/Vitamine B17) in de behandeling tegen menselijke kanker dateert al op zijn minst uit 1843, hoewel de oude Chinezen al ongeveer 3000 jaar geleden melding maakten van het gebruik van grote hoeveelheden bittere amandelen in de behandeling van tumoren.

Wat is Tachyon energie

Energetisch Continuüm
Energetisch Continuüm

Tachyon energie is een naam die voor velen onbekend is. Dit heeft enkel te maken met woordgebruik. Tachyon energie ligt aan de basis van ons bestaan. Misschien is de naam oer energie jou wel bekend? Eigenlijk is tachyon energie hetzelfde als de basis energie van waaruit het universum opgebouwd is.

Tachyon heeft reeds een vorm
Om het verschil duidelijk te maken, kijk dan naar de oceaan. Wanneer het water in de oceaan het oer energie vertegenwoordigt, dan zijn de druppels tachyon energie. Het enige verschil: tachyon heeft reeds een vorm, maar nog geen specifieke bestemming – dus het kan zich nog tot alles vormen.

Potentie van al-wat-is
Tachyon energie is de eerste vorm hebbende energie die voortkomt uit het oer energie veld, de oerbron van het universum. Tachyon heeft dezelfde eigenschappen als oer energie en bevat dus de potentie van al-wat-is.

Getachyoniseerde materialen – antennes van tachyon energie:
Deze verbinden de intelligentie van elk levend organisme – jou lichaams cellen, een plant, een dier, … met de zuivere bron van tachyon energie. Bijgevolg kan deze intelligentie de nodige energie tot zich nemen en evolueren naar zijn optimale vorm en functie.

Contact met optimale potentie
Tachyon energie materialen zijn prachtige producten om lichaam en geest in contact te brengen met zijn optimale potentie.

Dr. Gerald Feinberg liet in 1967 zien wat de kracht van Tachyon energie was waarna een aantal geleerde deze techniek door-ontwikkelden waarbij materialen als glas, olie, water, katoen, silica e.a. zich transformeren tot tachyon antenne.

Natuurlijke materialen veranderen
Tijdens een proces wordt de sub atomaire structuur van natuurlijke materialen veranderd waardoor ze antenne van tachyon energie worden.

Bij contact met tachyon energie start een proces dat altijd leidt tot orde, heling, verjonging en hogere evolutie.

Indrukwekkend effect
Tachyon materialen hebben een indrukwekkend effect op elke levende structuur die uit evenwicht is geraakt en dus in chaos verkeert (pijn, veroudering, ziekte).

Van chaos tot evolutie
In de kwantum fysica wordt deze eigenschap van de tachyonen als “negentropie” bestempeld. (omkeer van chaos tot evolutie naar een hogere orde) Zo ervaren we een groter uithoudings-vermogen bij sport, betere studieresultaten in geval van concentratie stoornissen, een verhoogd energiepijl en intensere ervaring tijdens meditatie.

Verbinden met onze energiebron
Bij een heel spectrum van ziekten werden er bijzondere effecten waargenomen: blokkades verdwijnen, snelle helings processen bij operaties, chronische vermoeidheden die verdwijnen, …Tachyon is geen geneesmiddel.
Deze effecten zijn enkel het resultaat van het her verbinden van het lichaam met onze energiebron, waardoor het zelf herstellend systeem actief wordt.

Dood van het fysische lichaam
Ook vredig afscheid kunnen nemen en zich overgeven aan de onvermijdelijke dood van het fysische lichaam is een proces dat mooi ondersteund kan worden door diverse tachyon producten.

Tachyon versterkt het zelf genezend systeem van het lichaam.
Alle materie (dus ook onze cellen en organen) is voorzien van een subtiel organiserend energieveld. Dit is het fijn stoffelijk energieveld dat instaat voor de creatie en organisatie van het levend organisme.

De bron van alle zijn
Het fijn stoffelijk energieveld is te beschouwen als de zelfgenezende kracht van het levende wezen. Deze werkt als een feedbacksysteem naar “de bron van alle zijn” (= tachyon energie), dat de evolutie naar steeds hogere niveaus van orde mogelijk maakt en in stand houdt.

Fijn stoffelijk energieveld
Zo kan men ook begrijpen dat elk orgaan, met zijn specifieke materie en frequentie, op zijn eigen manier naar evenwicht en heling evolueert bij het gebruik van één en hetzelfde getachyoniseerd product. Het fijn stoffelijk energieveld van ieder orgaan of cel onttrekt immers de juiste frequentie aan het potentieel van tachyon, die nodig is om optimaal te functioneren.

Een hogere orde
Wanneer een orgaan uit evenwicht is geraakt, is het mogelijk om het met tachyon Energy te herstellen, zodat de nodige correctie wordt uitgevoerd die tot een hogere orde leidt. Als de persoon met de blokkade in contact komt met Tachyon Energy, dan kan aan de oorzaak gewerkt worden. Het proces kan samen gaan met emotionele en/of fysieke ontgifting).

Nieuwe taal van heling en evolutie
Voorlopers van deze ontdekking zijn de ingenieurs Nicola Tesla en Ralf Bergstresser. De vooraanstaande kwantumfysicus Ernst Wall schreef uitgebreid over deze nieuwe taal van heling en evolutie.

Tachyon, kort samengevat:
Het is de bron van alle frequenties. Tachyonenergie bevat het perfecte potentieel van ons universum. Hieruit worden alle vormen en frequenties (materie, chi, orgon, prana, yin-yang) van ons universum uit ruimte en tijd geboren en onderhouden.

Tachyon is sneller dan licht
Het is de bron van alle leven en naar hier keert het ook naar weer, na alle ervaringen, chaos en evolutie. Tachyon is sneller dan de lichtsnelheid. Tachyonenergie is niet van deze materiële wereld, heeft geen frequentie, ook geen fijnstoffelijke.

Daardoor heeft ze ook geen directe wisselwerking met onze wereld van vormen. Daarom kunnen we tachyon niet met onze op frequenties afgestemde mogelijkheden bevatten, laat staan beïnvloeden.
Tachyon heeft geen frequentie
Daardoor brengt het ordening op alle niveaus van het zijn: lichamelijk, emotioneel, mentaal en spiritueel. Daarom kan er ook nooit een teveel aan tachyon ontstaan bij het gebruik van getachyoniseerde producten. Het kan ook nooit verkeerd gebruikt worden.
Het proces van verval omkeren
houdt in dat een ziek of pijnlijk lichaam geheeld wordt, dat een verjongingsproces inzet en dat er een continue ontwikkeling plaatsvindt in de richting van vervolmaking, bewustzijnsverruiming en een versnelde spirituele ontwikkeling.
Resultaten zijn voelbaar
Steeds meer Reiki-kanalen, Therapeuten, Geneeskundige, Artsen, Feng-Shui experts en privé mensen gebruiken Tachyon-energie omdat de resultaten gewoon voelbaar zijn.

– Tachyonen producten kunnen je in balans brengen en beschermen tegen negatieve stralingen bijv: Mob. telefoons, computers, tv’s enz.

Tachyon producten:
– Tachyon Producten kopen

Dit is een flesje Getachyoniseerde Silica Gel. Maximaal vier druppels van deze gel per dag en je botten, hoe broos dan ook, worden zo hard als staal. Een levend bewijs daarvan is dit relaas.

Huisarts hervat strijd tegen griepprik

Nu de rechter geen reden heeft om huisarts Hans van der Linde te veroordelen wegens zijn uitlatingen over het RIVM en diens topman Roel Coutinho, zet hij de strijd tegen de griepprik voort.

De echte sterfte als gevolg van de griep is niet eens bij benadering bekend en mogelijk zelfs zo laag dat massale vaccinatie niet aan de orde is, stelt de huisarts.

In Huisarts en Wetenschap (H&W), het maandblad van het Nederlands Huisartsen Genootschap, roept Van der Linde opnieuw op te stoppen met de vaccinatie tegen de griep.

Belastinggeld

Volgens de Capelse huisarts is het nut van de griepprik nooit voldoende wetenschappelijk aangetoond. Hij vindt een preventieve behandeling van gezonde mensen zonder een krachtige onderbouwing dan ook onverantwoord. Helemaal als een dergelijke behandeling een prijskaartje heeft van 60 miljoen euro belastinggeld per jaar.

Vanaf half oktober kunnen miljoenen mensen zich weer gratis laten inenten tegen de griep. Het Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu (RIVM) schat dat ongeveer 3,5 miljoen Nederlanders zich laten vaccineren.

Bedenkingen

Van der Linde strijdt al jaren tegen de controversiële griepprik. Ook andere medici hebben zo hun bedenkingen bij de grootschalige vaccinatie tegen de griep.

Het RIVM heeft zich neergelegd bij de uitspraak van de rechter dat uitlatingen zoals die van Van der Linde toelaatbaar zijn binnen het publieke debat. De zaak tegen de huisarts speelde bijna een jaar.
