cancer cured naturally… a true story


This is a true story about my friend Tom’s journey in curing his prostate cancer NATURALLY. I met Tom while at my stay at Sanoviv Medical Institute. Tom had gone there looking for answers to his uncurable cough and chest rash that he had for months prior.

For those of you who do not know… Sanoviv is the hospital of the future. It is a full functioning hospital with medical doctors who utilize all “traditional” medicine while integrating an alternative approach to achieve optimal wellness. Sanoviv practices functional medicine which uses in depth diagnostics to get to the root causes of illness or disease. “There is no place like it in the world”, as quoted by Dr Christiane Northrup.

In addition, while at Sanoviv, you will NEVER feel as if you were in a “hospital”. You might compare it to a 5 star vacation. All rooms are incredible ocean front rooms overlooking the thalasso pools, the pacific ocean and the beautiful tranquil grounds. Take a virtual tour at www.sanoviv.com Or my April blog post as to why I choose Sanoviv titled “why sanoviv” at www.constantcomment.org

At Sanoviv, the program for any one is a detox immune building program. Which is very important for everyone, not just people with an illness. The program consists of your own personal doctor, nutritionist, psycho therapist, fitness instructor, chiropractor and dentist. Who all meet together to discuss you and treat you as a whole... Body Mind Spirit. You can read the specific program details at my blog post “my program” at www.constantcomment.org

Everyone receives their individualized program including a supplement program based on your personal lab results upon check in. You will reciece incredible detoxifying spa treatments daily. Every meal is prepared for you, as per your doctors orders, which consists of a raw organic vegetarian diet with some cooked fish, eggs (for some, not for me since I am vegan) and sometimes, very minimal slightly cooked vegetables along with wheat grass juice twice a day, green juice drinks twice a day and lemon juice with cayenne pepper every morning. For more details on the diet read my blog post “the sanoviv diet” at www.constantcomment.org

Yes… Sanoviv is an incredible place but… Sanoviv did NOT cure Tom’s cancer... Tom did. How did Tom do this? By choosing to make a conscious choice to be responsible for his choices and most improtant to his body.

One important mention is that Tom is a incredible lovely man for sharing his story with us. And Tom has an incredibly smart head on his shoulders. He is a fantastic internet researcher as well, as I was told by his beautiful wife Leanna. Tom also is a scientific based believer and quite frankly from what I gather he had more faith in the medical world than the alternative healing world. But as his journey of health has just begun, I would like to think, he now personally knows that we really are what we eat and you CAN heal your self by the foods we eat which will detoxify your body and build your immune system. He said to me, “I was shocked that it worked and how fast it worked. Well the “work” was all you Tom, and it paid off!

What exactly did Tom do to heal his prostate cancer naturally?

Raw Organic Vegan Diet
NO Gluten and NO Dairy
Prostate90 Cleanse
Prostate90 follow up program
Pomegranate juice daily,
Essiac tea twice daily,
Lemon juice daily with the cayenne pepper
Walking exercise
Daily meditation each morning.

Nutritional Supplement / Breakfast - Dinner
Mega Antioxidant (Mega AO) / 2 - 2
Chelated Mineral (Multi Mineral) / 2 - 2
Active Calcium / 2 - 2
Proflavanol 90 / 1 - 1
Coquinone 400 (SANOVIV) / 1 - 1
Palmetto Plus / 2 - 2
Biomega-3 / 2 - 2


The following is “Tom Fisher’s Prostate Journey” written by Tom Fisher himself. This is not just a random story off the internet. This is a true story by my friend Tom. How he believed in himself and was diligent in his program and gave natural medicine a chance to work BEFORE doing what his traditional doctors recommended. Even though he may have thought that the natural medicine might work and in the back of his mind he was preparing himself for the fact that he will have to do as the traditional Doctors told him. As do many others simply for the reason that they trust that their doctors would tell them if it worked. And with that said they are left not knowing their options and now, Thanks to Tom, they can see for themselves.

The proof is in the pudding… all of Tom’s PSA, testosterone and biopsy tests results are included and you can really see him making his progress. Here’s to you Tom! Hopefully this information will inspire others to also choose to change their life. As you mentioned to me how this has changed your life forever.

Thank you Tom… much love!

Tom Fisher’s Prostate Journey
By Tom Fisher

December 25, 2008: I started feeling bad and developing a cough. As the weeks rolled on I developed a rash across my chest and the cough became so bad I had difficulty having a conversation without stopping to cough. Any physical activity would cause me to cough and I had no energy. I visited various doctors six times over the next several weeks without any help in finding a cause. I knew about the SANOVIV Medical Clinic in Mexico and after much conversation with my wife decided now was the time to go. Within two weeks of our visit there, they cleared the symptoms I had been having but then came the big surprise.

Monday, April 20, 2009: Arrive Sanoviv and started the program. On Monday the 27th I received news from Dr. Meza that my Total PSA number taken this day was 8.6 ng/mL (From Wikipedia: The Hybritech Tandem-R PSA test released in February 1986, was based on a study that found 99% of 472 apparently healthy men had a total PSA level below 4 ng/mL—the upper limit of normal is much less than 4 ng/mL). Dr. Meza felt this was an indicator for prostate cancer and should be followed by a free PSA test for confirmation. There had been no indication of problem from the Digital Rectal Exam (DRE) and the prostate gland seems to be normal in size though ultrasound had found a few calcium deposits which were considered normal. At this time I was at SANOVIV eating primarily a raw vegetarian diet with some cooked fish, eggs and minimal cooked vegetables along with wheat grass juice, green drinks and lemon juice with cayenne pepper every morning.

Monday, April 27, 2009: The free PSA test confirmed the cancer marker was valid. The number was 0.57 ng/mL (0 – 14 ng/mL indicate a 64% probability of cancer, 15 – 24 ng/mL indicates a 37% and >25% indicates 10% or less probability). Wikipedia explains most PSA in the blood is bound to serum proteins. A small amount is not protein bound and is called free PSA. In men with prostate cancer the ratio of free (unbound) PSA to total PSA is decreased. The risk of cancer increases if the free to total ratio is less than 25%, the lower the ratio the greater the probability of prostate cancer. Measuring the ratio of free to total PSA appears to be particularly promising for eliminating unnecessary biopsies in men with PSA levels between 4 and 10 ng/mL. My ratio was 0.57/8.6 = 6.63%, much less than the 25%. Dr. Meza recommended a prostate biopsy to confirm or rule out prostate cancer.

Saturday, May 2, 2009: Biopsy was performed at SANOVIV by Dr. Fernando Mercado.

Wednesday, May 6, 2009: Results from biopsy confirmed prostate cancer but appeared to be contained to the lower part of the prostate. The pathology report rated my cancer at a Gleason 4(2+2) however; Dr. Meza stated that in the United States this number would be considered higher than in Mexico. The team of SANOVIV doctors recommended a radical prostatectomy and suggested I contact a doctor in the states within a month of returning home. They felt this would be the safest protocol. The pathology report rated my cancer at a Gleason 4(2+2). I continued to receive various treatments including ozone blood treatments, colonics, IV therapies, supplements and multiple other wonderful treatments and medication classes.

Sunday, May 10, 2009: We returned home from SANOVIV. I immediately started researching everything I could about treatment options. I considered the various alternative cures which included Cayenne Pepper, Essiac Tea, Cleansing and supplements published in the Prostate90 book (Prostate Health in 90 Days by Larry Clapp). I continued to take my nutritional supplements and follow the SANOVIV diet a closely as possible. I decided to try the Cayenne pepper treatment first. It consisted of working up to 1 teaspoon of Cayenne pepper in an 8 oz glass of warm water; it took two days to get to the full teaspoon. I did this three times each day for about 2 ½ weeks until my stomach started bothering me too much. I also ordered twelve bottles of ESSIAC tea and I ordered a kit with all of the essential items to follow the recommended program outlined in the Prostate90 book.

I also researched everything I could about classic treatment options including surgery (I dismissed this option quickly because of the negative effects on sexual function), Proton Beam Therapy which seems to have the least negative side effects (I checked at Midwest Proton Radiotherapy Institute at Indiana University and Loma Linda University Medical Center - Proton Treatment Center both of which would require a two month stay near the location for daily treatments.), High Dose Radiation (HDR) Brachytherapy (I check at Seattle Prostate Institute for HDR and Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City.) and Low Dose Radiation (LDR) Brachytherapy (I mostly did online research on seed implants which I understand can have serious consequences if the seeds move). At this time I really felt like I would have to pursue one of these treatments and HDR seemed to be the most desired locally so I contacted Huntsman Cancer Institute, Jonathan D. Tward, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor, Radiation Oncology because the obstacle of long stays hundreds of miles away seemed too big to overcome. I had my pathology slides from Mexico forwarded to Dr. Tward for evaluation but continued my alternative cures including a primarily raw foodist diet.

Thursday, May 28, 2009: Doctor Harsh Thaker, MD of Huntsman Cancer Institute reported his evaluation of the slides received from SANOVIV. The Gleason score was 4+4=8. This report was forwarded to Dr. Tward of Huntsman Cancer Institute with a copy to me.

Friday, June 05, 2009: Traveled to Salt Lake and met with Dr. Tward. He said my Gleason score was an 8 and indicated this was an aggressive cancer. We spent about 3 hours talking about various options including alternate therapies. He told me of pomegranate juice research done at Stanford University showing dramatic slowing of PSA increases with prostate patients. We decided on a course of action. I would have a bone scan and MRI done the next week at the Huntsman Cancer Institute. I would try whatever alternate therapies I chose for the next three months with monthly monitoring of my “PSA” along with “testosterone”. Assuming no radical change “up” then in three months we would do another biopsy and evaluate. If cancer was still there at same level or worse, the program would be Brachytherapy seed implant with 5 weeks of Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). – That day, I committed to a “raw foodist” lifestyle. I would try pomegranate Juice, 8 to 16 oz per day, continue with Essiac tea, consider more cayenne pepper tea, do the 8 day cleanse ordered and follow the prostate90 program as closely as possible. Dr. Tward ordered the PSA and testosterone tests which came back with a PSA reading of 2.3 ng/mL, much lower than expected.

Sunday, June 07, 2009: Following is a list of the nutritional supplements I am taking:

Nutritional Supplement/ Breakfast - Dinner
Mega Antioxidant (Mega AO) / 2 - 2
Chelated Mineral (Multi Mineral) / 2 - 2
Active Calcium / 2 - 2
Proflavanol 90 / 1 - 1
Coquinone 400 (SANOVIV) / 1 - 1
Palmetto Plus / 2 - 2
Biomega-3 / 2 - 2


Thursday, June 18, 2009: I started my Prostate90 8-Day Ultimate Cleanse. Leanna and I went to Salt Lake City on June 9th and spent the night in the VA parking lot. I had a full body bone scan and pelvis MRI on the morning of Wednesday at the University of Utah Radiology. The results of the bone scan showed no sign of cancer in my bones. It did show areas of arthritis in my left ankle (the one that gives me a lot of pain when I walk or run), lower back (area I broke at age 13), in the center of my neck (I have regular pain there to my left shoulder) and my right AC joint (Right shoulder joint where I don’t have any pain). The MRI did show the cancer in the prostate as well as signs of BPH. The cancer did not show complete encapsulation as there were some “soft” edges. I didn’t have a physician’s interpretation yet but I assume these were areas of particular concern for cancer spreading. I did think these tests Dr. Tward ordered were a lot more thorough than are usually done so I probably am getting a lot of detail many men don’t get. I continued to take Essiac tea, pomegranate juice twice daily, morning lemon juice with cayenne pepper and managed to stay on the raw food diet for 13 days with two exceptions. I ate two cooked frog legs at the family reunion since they were my idea and I was cooking them and then when we went to dinner with relatives. I ate a bowl of cooked vegetables without any noodles or meat at the Mongolian Grill, overall feeling great and not hungry. I lost some weight and under 148 pounds.

Thursday, July 2, 2009: I’ve been 98% Raw Vegan since May, Gluten and Dairy free for 6 weeks, Vegetarian since early May. (My Gluten / Dairy results came back showing I am very gluten and dairy sensitive). I did the Prostate90 Cleanse In June and still trying to do the Prostate90 follow up program consistently. I drink the pomegranate juice daily, Essiac tea twice daily, lemon juice daily with the cayenne pepper, and now trying to get some walking exercise. I’m doing my daily meditation each morning. The following numbers really have encouraged me to stay with the program:

PSA Testosterone
Original at Sanoviv (April) 8.6 (H) ng/mL556 ng/dL
6/1/20092.4 ng/mLN/A
6/8/20092.3 ng/mL519 ng/dL
7/1/20091.8 ng/mL721 ng/dL (H)

I’m not sure what the interplay between PSA and Testosterone is but the cancer doctor thinks it’s important. This is the first time in my life I’ve registered a High Testosterone reading. I’m still hoping for a PSA of .8 by September 1.

Thursday, September 10, 2009: Yeah! I did achieve the 0.8 goal by September but better than that I just received the biopsy report below:
PSA Testosterone
Original at Sanoviv (April) 8.6 (H) ng/mL 556 ng/dL
6/1/2009 2.4 ng/mL N/A
6/8/2009 2.3 ng/mL 519 ng/dL
7/1/2009 1.8 ng/mL 721 ng/dL (H)
7/31/2009 1.2 ng/mL 499 ng/dL
9/3/2009 0.8 ng/mL 449 ng/dL

Yes, that’s right! Doctor says get another PSA test in 6 months. No cancer found!! Thanks to prayer, raw food diet, alternative cures and supplements.

I might point out that the doctor at SANOVIV still doesn't consider the cancer in remission yet because the time is too short which is good because it means I have to stay on the program for a least a couple of years. After that it should be an established life style.
Which means...

This is a lifetime program to prevent reoccurrence!

I will try to respond to any questions.

Best Regards,

Tom Fisher

what is codex alimentarius?


If you don’t know what Codex Alimentarius is you better find out before it is too late. The Codex Alimentarius is a threat to the freedom of people's right to choose nutrition, natural healing and alternative medicine. Ratified by the World Health Organization, and going into Law in the United States in December 31 2009, the threat to health freedom has never been greater.

What will happen if we become Codex compliant? “Nutricide” Criminalizing natural health vitamins and herbs. Codex will make your currently available nutrients, which are your right by “Common Law”, meaning anything not currently forbidden is permittable, and mandate “Napoleonic Code”, which will mean anything not listed as permitted will then be now forbidden.

Codex has declared nutrients as “toxins” and will illegalize any nutrient that has ANY effect on humans. Meaning that commonly used vitamins will soon be illegal and not available even with a prescription. With exceptions to the Codex “positive list” which has nothing positive on it. Things like fluoride will be on that permittable list. Fluoride is known to be unhealthy and shocking enough… it is also known to make people complacent. Good thing its in our drinking water everywhere … otherwise people might catch on to Codex and stand up for their rights!

What else will Codex regulate and mandate? World food regulations and legalizations of mandated toxicity. ... Mandated toxicity that will result in every animal on the planet used for food consumption MUST be treated with growth hormones and antibiotics. YES..! Every animal including fish and even every the dairy cow MUST be treated with Monsanto’s recombinant bovine growth hormone. And that is not just conventional meats and dairy either. Organic standards are set very low which allows the organic farmers to use veterinary drugs such as growth hormones and antibiotics and still allowing them to list there products as organic.

The one is just as disturbing as well, all food, except foods being consumed raw, MUST be irradiated including organic. And it doesn’t stop there with the irradiating, hormones and antibiotics.

One of the scariest mandates to me is the already banned chemicals Codex will bring back. There are twelve known very bad banned organic chemicals, called “POP” which stands for persistent organic pollutants. These twelve POP’s are so bad that 176 countries including the US have already banned the use of them. Nine of the twelve forbidden POP’s are pesticides. Codex brought back seven of the nine forbidden chemicals. Chemicals like Deildrin, Aldrin and Hexachlorobenzene and not in small amounts either. This will also mean that imported foods containing these substances can not be stopped at our borders. Under Codex it would be a trade violation. You can see for yourself on their website here and go to the "official standards" on the top right for a list of the toxic chemicals they are permitting and the amounts that they state are acceptable.

It has been estimated that the Codex mandates, standards, regulation and illegalization of vitamins and minerals will result in an initial three billion deaths. One billion due to starvation and the other two billion deaths due to diseases, such as cancer, cardio-vascular disease and diabetes. Which are currently preventable and curable with the use of nutrition, natural healing and alternative medicine.

To understand more and make sure you or your family member doesn’t become one of these estimated statistics PLEASE go to www.healthfreedomusa.org and MAKE SURE you sign the citizens petition to make sure that voice be heard in the legal challenge against Codex. Click and Sign here : Citizens Petition. PLEASE... Sign it and pass it to everyone you know. To thoroughly and easily understand what this is all about... Click Here and watch this first part of a series of talks by Dr. Rima Laibow MD, available on DVD from the Natural Solutions Foundation, an non-profit organization dedicated to educating people about how to stop Codex Alimentarius from taking away our right to freely choose nutritional health.

the dirty secrets of what make you clean…


One shocking secret is the fact that there are over 800 chemicals used in personal care products are known to be toxic. Thanks FDA! And the average person is exposed to at least 120 chemicals EACH DAY by using personal care products.

The most shocking dirty secret to me is the fact that (most) toothpastes contain PESTICIDES! Look at your tube… if it has Triclosan… it has pesticides in it! Triclosan is a pesticide that accumulates in the fatty tissue in your body and is suspected to be a hormone disruptor by interfering with thyroid function.

Another shocker it that by cleaning your hands with antibacterial soap is the same as cleaning you hands with pesticides. The American Medical Association does not recommend using anti bacterial soaps in your home or in a pediatrician’s office BUT they do in hospitals. This to me seems not right. Especially since these antibacterial soaps are not effective at killing viruses that make you sick. The same is true for hand sanitizers. Antibacterial soaps and sanitizers are said to kill 99% of bacteria. But you don’t catch the common cold or flu from bacteria. You get them from viruses. So you are covering yourself with pesticides and you may still get sick.

The dirtiest secret about some antibacterial products is that when you combine them with chlorinated water, (for example when you wash your hands) the two together make chloroform, which you will then inhale. Chloroform is a suspected carcinogen. So stick to soap and water, I am sure you can do with out the pesticides and chloroform fumes.

And of course your soap had a dirty secret too! Many bar soaps are made with a chemical called Ethylenediamine Tetraacetic Acid ( EDTA). It’s an amino acid that binds to heavy metals, like mercury. So when you wash with it and then it gets rinsed down the drain and then it ends up contaminating the ocean. These contaminates then make their way into the fish & shellfish that live in the ocean and then you eat them! So when you eat the fish you are also eating the EDTA and the mercury that binds to it. And we all know mercury is one of the most toxic elements on the planet.

Here is another dirty dirty one… Parabens. It is a preservative found in almost ALL of your products. You will find them in your shampoo, conditioner, lotion shaving gel, and toothpaste. They all have parabens in them so they are able to sit on every shelf in every food and drug store in America. And dirtiest part of this secret is that they are also found intact in breast tumors! Now isn’t that enough to ban these parabens? Avoid any product that has any ingredient ending in paraben or aben. They are also hormone disruptors, mimicking estrogen and increasing your risk for hormone sensitive cancers, like breast cancer.

Parabens are not the only dirty one to watch out for. You want to also watch out for the following:

Sodium laurel or lauryl sulfate (SLS), also known as sodium laureth sulfate (SLES)– Found in car washes, engine degreasers, garage floor cleaners… and in over 90% of personal care products! SLS breaks down the skin’s moisture barrier, easily penetrates the skin, and allows other chemicals to easily penetrate. Combined with other chemicals, SLS becomes a “nitrosamine”, a potent class of carcinogen. It can also cause hair loss. SLES is sometimes disguised with the labeling “comes from coconut” or “coconut-derived”.

Mineral Oil, Paraffin, and Petrolatum – Petroleum products coat the skin like plastic, clogging pores and creating a build-up of toxins, which in turn accumulate and can lead to dermatological issues. Slows cellular development, which can cause you to show earlier signs of aging. Suspected cause of cancer. Disruptive of hormonal activity.

Toluene – Poison! Danger! Harmful or fatal if swallowed! Harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Made from petroleum or coal tar, and found in most synthetic fragrances. Chronic exposure linked to anemia, lowered blood cell count, liver or kidney damage, and may affect a developing fetus. Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) contains toluene. Other names may include benzoic and benzyl.

Phenol carbolic acid– Found in many lotions and skin creams. Can cause circulatory collapse, paralysis, convulsions, coma and even death from respiratory failure.

Propylene glycol – Used as a moisturizer in cosmetics and as a carrier in fragrance oils. Shown to cause dermatitis, kidney or liver abnormalities, and may inhibit skin cell growth or cause skin irritation.

Acrylamide– Found in many hand and face creams. Linked to mammary tumors in lab research.

Dioxane– Found in compounds known as PEG, Polysorbates, Laureth, ethoxylated alcohols. Common in a wide range of personal care products. The compounds are usually contaminated with high concentrations of highly volatile 1,4-dioxane, easily absorbed through the skin.

Dioxane’s carcinogenicity was first reported in 1965 and later confirmed in studies including one from the National Cancer Institute in 1978. Nasal passages and liver are the most vulnerable. Dioxane is easily removed during the manufacturing process by “vacuum stripping”. Warning: It is a synthetic derivative of coconut. Watch for hidden language on labels, such as “comes from coconut”.

Basically you skin is you body’s largest organ don’t load it up with known toxic chemicals. If you aren’t sure about your personal care products go to one of my favorite sites. www.skindeep.com this site by the Environmental Working Group rates all products and gives you a reading of just how toxic they really are.

Another good tip… read the labels of what goes into your skin the same way you would for what you eat. They can have the same effects on your body… toxic.

detox miracle sourcebook


Many of you know I am a HUGE fan of Hippocrates Health Institute and Sanoviv Medical Institute where I had an incredible experience detoxing and building my immunity.

For those of you interested in a program like this to revitalize every system of your body, maximize the healing power of nature, cleanse toxins and or heal the causes of disease BUT you do not have the time of money to go to a place like Hippocrates or Sanoviv. I would like to introduce to you...

The Detox Miracle Sourcebook by Robert Morse N.D.

The Detox Miracle Sourcebook shows you how to cleanse your body of the poisons that are destroying your health, and start the process of complete cellular regeneration that leads to true healing. Based on 30 years of clinical experience, treating thousands of people with conditions ranging from OVERWEIGHT to CANCER, Dr. Robert Morse reveals his ultimate healing system - the Detox Miracle!

The following is the introduction from The Detox Sourcebook:

Welcome to a fantastic journey into vitality. Health is one of our greatest assets, and many refer to the body as a temple, or a vehicle that carries around the true Self while we are on this planet. However, we often treat our cars better than we treat out bodies. (this is an example that I have been using for years, so I am sold in the 1st paragraph)

The information contained in this book was not taken from double-blind studies, from misconstrued facts and figures of treatment agencies, or from "bought and paid for" scientific research. i wrote this book based on thirty years of self experience, and from clinical observation of thousand years of self- experience, and from clinical observation of thousands of patients who used my programs to overcome their toxic conditions and disease.

Basically, we have two choices to make when we develop a condition or disease: treatment or detoxification. If we choose treatment, we have two additional choices. The first choice is allopathic medicine, which is status-quo medical or chemical approach. The second choice is natural (traditional) medicine, which uses products made from natural sources of herbs to treat the symptoms. If we choose the allopathic approach to "fight" our disease, it is important to understand that allopathic medicine offers only three types of treatment for any condition: chemical medicines, radiation or surgery.

Pharmaceutical companies spend a lot of money developing drugs and training medical (allopathic) doctors in how to use these chemical medicines in the presence of disease. But, "curing" the disease (in the sense of removing its cause, not just its symptoms) is not a part of this approach - which is a totally a "treatment" - based modalitiy. Chemical medicines are used for everything from simple headaches and fevers to degenerative conditions, like Parkinson's disease or cancer.

The second form of treatment in allopathic medical procedures is some type of burning or radiation. This is used in most diagnostic procedures (x-rays, for example) and some treatment procedures, especially but not limited to cancer.

The third procedure that the allopathic medical profession can use to treat a problem or condition is surgery. Surgery is the simply the removal of the "bad" tissue that is causing the problem. If the disease is cancer of the breast, simply remove the breast and the patient is "cured".

Natural medicine, or what I refer to as "traditional medicine," differs from the allopathic approach. Natural medicine simply treats disease with a natural products (those made from animal, plant or mineral substances) or herbs, which are found in nature. The science of natural medicine has been around for hundred of thousand of years, at one level or another. (Chemical medicine only 125 yrs old)

Most of the substances used in natural medicine have no damaging side effects, while most chemical medicines have some degree of harmful side effects. However, it is fair to say that some natural products used without the proper wisdom can still create harm. Supplementing calcium in the presence of a parathyroid weakness, for example, results in a stone formation or excessive free calcium. In general, the diagnostic procedures used in natural medicine including iridology, kinesiology, pulsing, hair or tissue analysis, and many others are none invasive and not harmful to the patient whatsoever.

Most health care systems today, including allopathic, naturopathic and homeopathic medicine, are treatment-based modialities. Treating symptoms never cures the "causes." Until a genuine cure has been effected, we will always be suffering in some form. The alternative to treatment is True Naturopathy (detoxification) a little known science of nature that has been used for hundreds of years, by hundreds of thousands of people and animals worldwide. It has restored health and vitality to their physical, emotional and mental bodies. Detoxification encompasses the science of chemistry, biochemistry, botanical science and physics, and had always been at the heart of true healing. For that reason, detoxification should be at the heart of natural medicine today, but has been forgotten in our modern world of "treatment."

Detoxification is not a system of treatment or way to remove symptom; it is a system of curing by addressing the cause of the disease. It involves the understanding that the body is the healer, and that energy is at the core of healing. It also sheds a light on the true cause of disease - the destruction of energy. Energy or the destruction of energy results from what we eat, drink, breathe, put on our skin, and from what we think and feel. These are six ways we either make ourselves healthy and vital, or sick and weak.

Naturopathy is the purest form of healing. Its procedures and diagnostic tools are all totally non-invasive, and at its core are alkalization and detoxification, which is explained in great depths throughout the book. The Detox Miracle Sourcebook is about this second opinion, true healing through detoxification and its related sciences. However, the approach taken here never puts science above the power of God and nature, as science is only the study of what already is.

My success with true detoxification in chronic and degenerative issues has been recognized worldwide. Out of 100 people who come to us with various types of cancer, approximately 70 percent cure themselves, 20 percent can't do the program and 10 percent are too advanced or don't want to live. Our success with regerneration in spinal cord injuries is also phenomenal: a thirty-two year old female, who had severed her upper cervical spine (a C3-C4 spinal cord severation) twelve years previously, came into out clinic. In eleven months she had complete feeling and movement throughout her body. A young Amish man who had a tractor accident, which left him a quadriplegic at the C4-C5 level, in six months had total feeling in his toes.

One of the hardest parts of this program is working with the mind. Like a computer, you get out what you put in. This book will supply you with the most up-to-date and thorough information you need to feed your mind and thus educate yourself about the miraculous healing system of your body. It will cover some physiology, chemistry, physics and nutrition all in a way that you can understand and immediately use. It will also encourage you to "change your mind" from one of toxic thinking to one of natural and pure thinking.

Most people live to eat; I would like you to start thinking about eating to live, and this book will show you how to do that. What you eat has a direct effect upon your health, and I have proven this year-in and year-out on hundred clients. I have seen cancer, time and time again, cleaned out of the body. Also, diabetes, coronary artery disease and arthritis all eliminated. I have seen spinal cord injuries reconnect and nerve damage from strokes, multiple sclerosis and the like, heal.

There is no magic or mystery to health or disease. Disease is a natural process! When we understand how the body works, and what causes the tissues in the body to fail, we will then understand what causes disease symptoms, and how to reverse it.

This book will take you on a journey with many important steps along the way. You will learn about the species your physical body comes from; how your body works; the nature of disease. And finally, what health is. One of the premises of this book is that health is really very simple, yet we spend a large part of out time and money trying to achieve it. The Detox Miracle Sourcebook will help you understand your species, and encourage you toward eating in harmony with your anatomical, physiological and biochemical processes. This will give you vitality and a disease-free life.

Allow yourself the time and discipline to become alive again through detoxification! Put your heart, self-discipline and soul into it. Detoxification will be one of the greatest things you do for yourself in your lifetime.

Note: as this book was written for the healthcare practitioner and lay person alike, some chapters are more scientifically based than others. For myself, I say, "Keep it simple!" Pass over those chapters that might confuse you at first. Come back later and read them to better understand your body and how it works. Your body is a very complex machine, but keeping it healthy is very simple.

NATURE'S WAY:

1. Natural (nature's) health is NOT alternative medicine. Natural Health is traditional medicine.

2. Nature's way is hundreds of thousands of years old. chemical medicine is only 125 years old.

3. Since the advent of chemical medicine, disease has skyrocketed.

4. Medicine should only consist of natural remidies that alkalize, clean and regenerate the body.

GETTING STARTED : 10 WAYS TO BE SUCCESSFUL

As you prepare to the information presented in the book, here is an overview. This is what is takes to be successul. These ten principles or recommendations will help you tremendously in achieving success and the health and vitality you want from your detoxification and regeneration process. These points will be covered in depth as you continue to work with the book.

1. The diet is your number one key to success. What you eat, drink, breathe, and what you put on your skin is how you bring the outside world in. Study and learn the concepts in this book about a raw food diet. The greater percentage of raw fruits and vegetables (salads) you eat, the greater your success will be. If you have cancer, a spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, parkinson's or any other chronic degenerative condition, you will want to consume 100% raw, "live" food diet of fruits and vegetables (salads) only.

2. Invite the help of a health care professional who has experience in the use of raw foods and other natural detoxification procedures, like fasting. Especially with illnesses like cancer and other chronic, degenerative conditions, it is beneficial to have guidance and support throughout your healing process. Ultimately you are responsible for yourself, but there are many valuable resources to assist you in making this journey into vibrant health.

3. Find someone who is adept at "reading" the iris of the eye ( a science known as iridology). This is one of nature's greatest, at present, only types of soft tissue analysis. it will give you a road map of your stregths and weaknesses. It will also indicate your congestive (lymphatic) and chemical accumulations. This is invaluable in helping you address your glandular or organ weaknesses. For this I recommend an herbal (formula0 program. Use herbs to address your cellular weaknesses and to move and clean your lymphatic system, GI tract, and lungs. ( Resource guide in book for herbal companies that supply such formulas)

Almost 100% of homo sapians have glandular weaknesses. Begin this process by taking the "What is your body telling you" self assessment questionaire found in chapter 5 in the book to determine yours.

Use basal temperature study test ( found in appendix A) for thyroid functio to determine your level of thyroid function. This is extremely important when considering utilization and metabolism.

If you have a high or especially low blood pressure, you know you have adrenal gland weakness. Again, check your self assesment questionaire to determine other side effects of adreanal gland weakness.

4. Always "move" your lymph system. Everyone has a stagnant lymph system to one degree or another. All cell need to eat and excrete, and your lymph system is your sewer system. Your lymph nodes are your septic tanks. Keep them cleanes out! Use an herbal formula for your kidneys and eat a lot of fruits> Clean and enhance your GI tract with raw foods and a restoritive intestinal formula. Avoid laxatives or purgatives, acidophilus, bifidophilus or any other intestinal flora. Your intestinal flora will restore itself. Exercise (like walking or swiming) is extremely important in moving your lymph system, especially in your lower extremities.

Let yourself sweat! your skin is your largest eliminative organ. Keep it clean and stimulated with dry skin brushing, regular as well as hot-cold showers, and by sweating.

5. You will want to spend a month on an herbal parasite formula ( a resourse guide at the back of the book to find excellant herbal companies that carry these) This will help get rid of the larger worms, flukes, etc., It will also help reduce your microorganisms (candida, bacteria, etc.,) that affect your desire for foods.

6. Clean your liver and enhance your pancreas for about a month or so before starting on your detoxification program. See shapter 8 for suggestions about supporting and cleansing these organs with herbs and herbal formulas. If you have diabetes or you're excessively thin you will probably need three months or so.

7. If your're on chemical medications, don't worry. Ther aer very few possible interactions with this program and these herbal formulas.

Scientific Facts:
Most chemicals weaken and destroy cells. Chemotherapy causes high acidosis and destroys cells causing future cancer or the spreading (metastasis) of cancer.

Radiation inflames, burns, and destroys cells (tissues), an dcan cause cancer to metastasize.

If you're on high blood pressure medication, simply watch your blood pressure. This program can bring down your blood pressure fast. Use common sense. If your blood pressure is low, lowering it further with chemical meds might not be too smart.

If your blood pressure is low, you must work to get it normalized by enhansing and regenerating your adrenal glands. Diabetes (Type II) is very easy to overcome in most cases. If you're on insulin, watch your blood sugars. The same principle applies as with high blood pressure.

9. As you detoxify and regenerate, your body will go through sysmptoms of a "healing crisis." This is normal, natural and positive. As you understand about the healing crisis you'll understand what "disease" truly are. see chapter 5 Remember, disease symptoms manifest from two sources - conjestion and cellular weakness.

10. Finally Attitude, attitude, attitude! Enjoy what you are doing! Always remember why you're getting your body (or physical vehicle) healthy. Your body is your mobility in this physical world. Many of your weaknesses are genetically passed on to you. Your toxicity may have developed in utero, so give it time to be released. Vibrant health in this world does not occur overnight. sometimes its' hard work - but well worth it. It connects you with life, love and God.

May the blessings be!

got gas??? Food Combining... one of these thing does not go with the other.


Food Combining...
does not mean a sectioned plate.
What is does mean is the following...


Over time combining the improper foods can lead to serious disorders later in life. Just because some people eat what ever they want with out feeling or noticing the negative effects doesn't mean their aren't any. The Human Physiology is amazing. It changes and adapts as your environment or circumstances change. An interesting thing to contemplate is... just because we CAN do something... doesn't me we should. Digestion is one area that you can apply that statement to.

Poor food combining has been seen to lead to degeneration. Different enzymes are needed to digest different foods, and the enzymes are only active when the pH is just right. When you eat the proper food combination your digestive conditions will be ideal. Food combining is a science... based on the knowledge of body chemistry. Consuming the right foods to make the best of our digestive system with the least effort and energy from the body. The cleaner and more pure your food choices are; the more sensitive you become to the effects of poor food combinations.

Many people experience adverse reactions when eating certain foods and this is often due to how they are combining those foods. When undigested proteins remain in our systems, from either not chewing you food enough or the lack of enzymes active, you body can have an allergic reaction to this food. Not being able to digest it properly. Do you have a lot of gas??? Perhaps it could be from your choice of food combining. ex: nut butter on grain bread. When combining food that have different digestive requirements, such as nut and grains, this can cause gas from the fermentation or lack of complete or proper digestion.

Proper food combining is not only easier on the digestion process but it will boost your immune system. Did you know that 70% of your immune system is in you digestive tract? or... that 90% if the nutrients you get from you food takes place in your digestive tract. And that 30% or more of your body's precious energy is used up just to digest the food you eat.

The effects won't stop in your digestive tract either.. When foods are combined properly not only you will use less energy to digest and you will then have more energy for other activities and more important.. healing. In turn, this will effect you whole body, you blood will be cleaner, your cells will receive more oxygen, and you will be on your way to optimum wellness. Healthier, stronger and more disease-resistant. Try it and just watch how great you feel... your whole body will thank you.

TOP 10 FOOD COMBINING DO's AND DON'Ts...

1- Avoid drinking with your meals. Drink 15 min before or 1 1/2 HOURS AFTER.Drinking with your meals dilutes the important enzymes and acids needed for proper digestion.

2- Eat and drink food and beverages at room temperature. Tempatures(hot and cold) alter enzyme activity and will burden the digestion process.

3- Avoid combining starch and protein.

4- Avoid eating more than one type of protein at one meal. The same goes for fat.(this does not mean you can not combine more than one variety of seeds or nuts at one time) Just Keep It Simple.

5- Avoid combining more than one fat/protein. Such as, do not use avocado, nuts and oil in a dressing. better to pick just one.

6- Only eat fruit occasionally ( especially when facing health challenges) When consuming fruits, only eat fruits with similar fruits. You may combine sub acid fruit with acid fruit and you may combine sweet fruit with sub acid fruit but AVOID combining sweet fruit with acid fruits. (see food term below)

7- Eat melon alone or only with other melons.

8- Avocados combine well with either fruit or vegetables. same with garlic onions, flowers and some herbs.

9- Eat veggies and greens with either avocado, nuts & seeds or starchy foods.

10- It is ALWAYS ideal to combine as few ingredients as possible for optimal digestion. In nature, would you expect to find a apple tree next to a banana tree next to an onion plant, or nut tree next to a head of lettuce? Wild animals usually have a MONO DIET, meaning they only eat one food at a time, as did humans for many thousands of years prior to today's processed food technologies.

FOOD CATEGORIES & DIGESTION TIME...

Although not all-inclusive this is a representative list. In terms of food combining all foods are categorized by their strongest traits, although they may be composed of several of the other groups listed here

Protein - digestion time average 4 hours
Includes all nuts, flax, sunflower, pumpkin, and my favorite hemp.

Fat - digestion time average 4 hours

Vegetable - digestion time average 2 1/2 hours
all greens, lettuces, celery, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, cucumber, celery root, asparagus, kohlrabi, yellow summer squash, zucchini, carrot, bell pepper, sea vegetables, radish, parsnip, turnip, beet, all herbs, garlic, scallion onion, all sprouts, sprouted lentils, sprouted mung beans, sprouted adzuki beans, sprouted funugreek including small sprouts too, clover, radish, broccoli, onion and alfalfa.

Starch - digestion time average 2 1/2 hours
all cooked and sprouted grains; all hard winter cooked or raw squash such as acorn, pumpkin, butternut, etc., Jerusalem artichokes (sunchokes); all cooked root vegetables ( beet, carrot, rutabaga, sweet potato, turnip etc.); sprouted chick peas (garbanzo), sprouted peas and most sprouted beans.

Sweet Fruit - digestion time average 4 hours
Banana, all dried fruit, fresh persimmon, and fresh date.

Sub-Acid Fruits - digestion time 2 hours
Fresh apple, pear, grape, cherries, berries, apricot, nectarine, mango, papaya, cherimoya, litchis and tomato

Melon - digestion time average 15-30 minutes
Includes all melons

ALSO IMPORTANT...

Breathe... deep diaphragmatic breathing

Chew... eat bite 30-60 times. try to liquefy in the mouth before swallowing. there are no teeth in your stomach

Savor and Be Thankful... it will help you digestion and your spirit.

hemp... eat it don't smoke it.


Eating hemp is amazing for you...
and... it tastes GREAT!
3 tsp = 11 grams of protein and...
the omegas are off the chart!

Shelled hemp seed has a similar taste to pine nuts with a sesame seed size & texture.
I put it on everything... ! For example, I put it on my cereal, in a shake, in soup, on a salad, in my raw or cooked version of a stir fry. and even in your vegan baking!

Hempseed is considered to be one of the most nutritious food sources on the planet by leading researchers and medical doctors. Shelled hempseed is packed with 33 percent pure digestible protein and is rich in omega-3 and GLA as well as vitamin E and iron. The Canadian government funded a recent report the states, "hemp protein is comprised of 66 percent high-quality edistin protein, and that hempseed contains the highest percentage of this of any plant source. Hemp also contains three times the vitamin E contained in flax. Unlike soy, hemp is not genetically modified, and it doesn't contain the anti-nutritional qualities commonly found in soy."

Did You Get Your "Good Fats" today?

Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs)are the "good fats" that doctors recommend as part of a healthy, balanced diet. Since the human body does not produce EFAs, it is important that you consume EFAs on a regular basis. It is estimated that more than 90 percent of Americans take in too little of one of the most important EFAs--omega-3--which is found in flax, walnuts, deep-water fish, and hempseeds. The quality of omega-3 is vital, since it can be diminished by oxygen, heat, and light. Consume the freshest seeds possible and to ensure that store them in a dark, cold environment such as a refrigerator.

I buy my organic hemp from Nutiva. My favorite Nutiva products are:

The Protein                                                                                                                                      

I have this superior protein powder shake everyday, even when I travel. It is the best shake I have ever had. I blend it with any and all of the below ingredients as long as I have them all at the same time. First I put unsweetened almond milk in a blender, 1/2  frozen banana, 2tbs, hemp protein powder, 1tsp of raw cacao, 1tsp of dandy blend, a squeeze of agave and sometimes a dash of organic vanilla or chocolate extract (if I have it)  Sometimes I add a big scoop or coconut milk chocolate ice cream if I want a milk shake type of shake. ( this way is a treat)

Nutiva now has two healthy, cold-milled, organic Hemp Protein offerings. Their original award-winning Hemp Protein + Fiber contains 37% protein, 43% fiber and 10% fat. The Hemp Protein + Fiber is ideal for people looking to increase their overall fiber consumption. The latest offering — Hemp Protein 50% contains 50% protein, 20% fiber and 11% fat. The Hemp Protein 50% is fantastic for athletes and smoothie-lovers who want higher protein and superior flavor.

The Shelled Hempseed

The world's most nutritious seeds, either plain or added as a delicious condiment. Shelled hempseeds are 33% protein and rich Omega-3 and GLA as well as vitamin E. While other companies heat their hempseeds, Nutiva simply removes the seeds' hard shells, yielding a 100% raw gourmet product that tastes like pine nuts. Enjoy daily by adding them to smoothies, cereal, yogurt, scrambles, stir frys, soups, salads, veggies and anything else. I usually carry then in my bag so I can add to food when I eat out.

the china study


For all of you naysayers, commenters, and people out there who like to pass judgement on my lifestyle choices... you know who you are.
For the record, I base my choices on facts.
What do you base your criticism on?

I would like to challenge you to read this book. Scientific shocking hardcore FACTS that will hopefully open you eyes to the REAL truth on nutrition, especially for all of you meat-eaters and dairy-asses out there.

Or how about a easier challenge... for those of you who prefer to live in denial. Just read these 16 quotes posted below from doctors and experts in nutrition and I am sure you will want to read this book. Hands down it will be the BEST thing you could ever do for yourself and your family

The most comprehensive study of nutrition ever conducted…

THE CHINA STUDY

Startling implications for diet, weight loss and long term health.

By T. Colin Campbell, PH.D.
And Thomas M. Campbell II

By any measure, America’s health is failing. We spend more, per ca pita, on health care than any other society in the world, and yet two-thirds of Americans are overweight, and more than 15 million Americans have diabetes. We fall prey to heart disease as often as we did thirty years ago. The War on Cancer, launched in the 1970’s has been a miserable failure. Half of all Americans have a health problem that requires a prescription drug every week, and more than 100 million Americans have high cholesterol.

To make matters worse, we are leading our youth down a path of disease earlier and earlier in their lives. One-third of the children in this country are overweight or at a risk of becoming overweight. Our kids are increasingly falling prey to a form of diabetes that used to be seen only in adults, and children now take more prescription drugs than ever before.

These issues come down to three things…
breakfast, lunch and dinner.


If you are like most Americans today, you are surrounded by fast food chain restaurants. You are barraged by ads for junk food. You see other ads, for weight-loss programs, that say you can eat whatever you want, not exercise, and still lose weight. It’s easier to find a snickers bar, a Big Mac, or a Coke than it is to find an apple. And your kids eat at a school cafeteria whose idea of a vegetable is the ketchup on the burgers.

You go to your doctor for health tips. In the waiting room, you find a glossy 243-page magazine titled Family Doctor; Your Essential Guide to Health and Well-being. Published by the American Academy of family Physicians and sent free to the offices of all 50,000 family doctors in the United States in 2004, it’s full of glossy full-page ads for McDonald’s, Dr Pepper, chocolate pudding and Oreo cookies.

You pick up an issue of National Geographic Kids, a magazine published by the National Geographic Society “for ages six and up,” expecting to find wholesome reading for youngsters. The pages, however, are filled with ads for Twinkies, M&Ms, Frosted Flakes, Froot Loops, Hostess Cup Cakes, and Extreem Jell-O pudding Sticks.

This is what scientists and food activists at Yale University call a toxic food environment. It is that certain people are making an awful lot of money today selling foods that are unhealthy. They want you to keep eating the foods they sell, even though doing so makes you fat, depletes your vitality and shortens and degrades your life. They want you docile, compliant, and ignorant. They do not want you informed, active, and passionately alive, and they are quite willing to spend billions of dollars annually to accomplish their goals.

You can acquiesce to all of this, you can succumb to the junk food sellers, or you can find a healthier and more affirming relationship with your body and the food you eat.

The China Study presents a clear and concise message of hope as it dispels a multitude of health myths and misinformation; if you want to be healthy, change your diet.

THE SCIENCE IS CLEAR.
THE RESULTS ARE UNMISTAKABLE.
CHANGE YOUR DIET AND DRAMATICALLY REDUCE YOUR RISKS OF CANCER, HEART DISEASE, AND OBESITY … EXTEND YOUR LIFE!

Dr. Campbell’s integrity and commitment to truthful nutrition education shine through.”
- David Klein, Publisher/Editor, Living Nutrition Magazine

“The China Study describes a monumental survey of diet and death rates from cancer in more than 2,400 Chinese countries and the equally monumental efforts to explore its significance and implications for nutrition and health. Dr. Campbell and his son, Thomas, have written a lively, provocative and important book that deserves widespread attention”
- Frank Rhodes, PH.D., President (1978-1995) Emeritus, Cornell University

Dr. Campbell knows this subject from the inside: he has pioneered the investigation of the diet-cancer link since the days of the seminal China Study, the NAS report, Diet, Nutrition and Cancer and AICR’s expert panel report, Food, Nutrition and the Prevention of Cancer: A Global Perspective. Consequently, he is able to illuminate every aspect of this question. Today, AICR advocated a predominantly plant based diet for lower cancer risks because of the great work Dr. Campbell and just a few other visionaries began twenty-five years ago.”
- Marlilyn Gentry, President American Cancer Institute Research

“The China Study is a well-documented analysis of the fallacies of the modern diet, lifestyle and medicine and the quick fix approach that often fails. The lessons from China provide compelling rational for a plant- based diet to promote health and reduce the risk of the disease of affluence.”
- Sushma Palmer, PH.D., Former Executive director Food and Nutrition Board, U.S. National Academy of Science

“The China Study is a rare treat. Finally, a world-renowned nutritional scholar has explained the truth about diet and health in a way that everyone can easily understand – a starting truth that everyone needs to know.
