Using data from the European Food Safety
Authority (EFSA) Comprehensive European Food Consumption Database, researchers18 compared levels of consumption of
specific foods against COVID-19 mortality statistics for countries in the
database.
The data included the consumption of
fermented vegetables, pickled or marinated vegetables, fermented milk, yogurt
and fermented sour milk. The researchers also looked at potential confounders,
such as gross domestic product, percentage of the population over age 64,
unemployment, obesity rates and population density. According to the authors:19
"Of all the variables
considered, including confounders, only fermented vegetables reached
statistical significance with the COVID-19 death rate per country.
For
each g/day increase in the average national consumption of fermented
vegetables, the mortality risk for COVID-19 decreased by 35.4%. Adjustment did
not change the point estimate and results were still significant."
Cancer Success
Story; Breast Cancer by Charlotte
November 2021 I
was diagnosed with a cancerous lump in my breast. The lump was surgically
removed in January 2022. Post-surgery both radiation and hormone therapy were
recommended. When I investigated hormone therapy (which would be for 5 years),
I learned it could have many side effects, including osteoporosis. With hormone
therapy I would have a 5% chance of developing cancer again, and without taking
it I would have 8% chance of recurring cancer. In my thinking, the potential
side effects to my body didn’t balance with the ‘benefits’, so I decided to
follow another path which would be beneficial to my body.
I researched
the Paw Paw program through reading, internet search and talking with Donna and another herbalist. This program had
science behind it (over 32 years of scientific studies by Dr McLaughlin). It
was important to me to talk with several women who had used the Paw Paw program
to successfully overcome cancer. It was during this time that I heard Shauna’s
story. She was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 29 and followed the medical
route for 5 years. Unfortunately, the cancer came back. She then searched for
answers outside the box. She is a TAFYH grad and she also followed the Paw Paw
program. She reported that she has been cancer free for over 12 years. Talking
with others who had traveled the road before me was an important part of
gaining confidence to ‘take the plunge’. I decided that it was best for my body
to follow the Paw Paw program. As 2 of my children are very science oriented, I
wrote an explanation email and sent it to my family and anyone else who was
skeptical and interested. It is included at the end of this testimony.
After the
surgery, in early 2022 I joined a TAFYH team with Donna Roth as the leader. This
was my second time taking TAFYH. Every day I was committed to eating the right
foods, having a super food smoothie with Chi Mineral Tonic, Flax Hull Lignans,
Arginine Plus, Collagen, and Greens. I was committed to drinking clean water
with Chlorophyll, exercising and to doing ionic breathing. I took control of my
health and was determined and committed. In addition, I did the MC program as I
had trouble with AFib (arrhythmia).
As part of
TAFYH I read success stories. I successfully completed the TAFYH course, and
continued the Paw Paw program for a total of 1 year and the MC program for 6.5
months.
I was on board
100%, committed and determined to take responsible action. There were some challenging
times like when one of my doctors strongly scolded me for following something
that was purely anecdotal and had no science behind it. However, I knew there
was a great deal of science behind Paw Paw as well as many success stories
where cancer did not come back. The Paw Paw program addressed the root issues
and was beneficial to my body, rather than causing other issues.
Recently I had
a conversation with Donna where she told me that many of her clients who had
breast cancer had taken a thyroid medication over an extended period of time. I had taken a different thyroid medication for
28 years, getting off it in 2015 when I first began using herbs for my health. It
was shocking to think that perhaps this contributed to the cancer that had
developed in my breast. Although since 2015 I have completed Liver and Kidney
cleanses, and detoxed, perhaps the damage had already been done in the previous
years. It is known by doctors who think outside the box that the body finds a
place to dump these poisons if the liver cannot detoxify it. Often they are
dumped in the lymphatic area such as the breasts. The lump in my breast may
have been a place that the Eltroxin toxins were deposited so as not to harm
other vulnerable organs of my body.
One year after
my surgery, during which I followed the Paw Paw program, I had a mammogram
which showed there is no cancer in my breast area. I intuitively believe that I
am breast cancer free.
I am thankful to Donna for the input and guidance she
has given me as well as insights from her experience. She has willingly
continued to answer my questions which has been so helpful.
Here is the
description of the program I sent to my family:
What is the Paw Paw Program?
I have chosen to do the Paw Paw program
as treatment in the cancer journey. It is used as prevention and to get rid of
any remaining cancer in my body. As cancer is a condition of the whole body,
I’ve come to conclude that this program is getting at the root of why I
developed cancer and is destroying any cancer cells that may be anywhere in my
body and building up my body so that, Lord willing, it won’t reoccur. With all
treatment of cancer, there is a chance of reoccurrence. From the research I’ve
done, I believe this is the best program for my body.
The goal of the Paw Paw Program
is:
• to
target rampant cell growth
• to
aid the body to mobilize its own immune functions
• to
promote new healthy cell regeneration
• to
bring the whole body into balance and maintain optimal health to avoid future
disease challenges.
Here is a summary of it:
• Paw
Paw - to stop energy production to abnormally growing cells while supporting
healthy cells
• Protease
Enzymes - help break down abnormal cell membranes so the body’s own immune
system can destroy the cancerous cells
• Omega
Essential Fatty Acids - to replace and rebuild healthy cell membranes
• Chinese
Chi Tonic: Essential minerals with immune herbs to help the body build and
strengthen healthy cells
In addition, geared especially for my
body, I’m taking:
• Cats
Claw - cleans and builds up the lymph system, clears any infection throughout
the body
• E
Tea - purifies blood and reduces inflammation - antibacterial, antimicrobial,
parasitic, anti-neoplastic (agents that inhibit the growth of tissue masses)
• Flax
Hull Lignans - effective in increasing apoptosis (mutant cell death) - I’m
using this because the cancer I had was estrogen driven, and this targets
hormone related tumours, immune system and heart disease. 1 Tbsp lignan’s = 1
gallon of flax seeds
While I’m doing this focus on building
up the body, I’m also taking some supplements to work on the ‘electrical’
system in the body. A Fib is a result of electrical signals not being received
correctly. In doing this I’m hoping to get at the root cause of the A Fib
challenges I’ve had as well.
While I’m working on this, I’m not
eating grains and carbs, and aiming not to eat sugar. One theory is that
candida (yeast overgrowth) creates an environment for cancer to grow, so by
eating this way, I’m also trying to balance the yeast and gut bacteria.
Further explanation for those who want
to know more:
1. Paw
Paw - works to inhibit abnormal cell growth in 4 ways explained below (for our
Science buffs).
-Modulates
the production of ATP in mitochondria of abnormal cells. Because acetogenins
modulate the production of ATP, cancer and other abnormally growing cells can
not thrive while healthy, normally reproducing cells are unaffected.
-Paw Paw inhibits the growth of blood
vessels that nourish cancer cells.
-Depletes
the DNA and RNA building blocks for new cell division on abnormally growing
cells. while it supports the normal cells.
-It’s
effective in reducing tumors.
2. Protease Enzymes - taken on an empty stomach, it breaks down the
protective membrane around the cancer cells so the cancer cells can be
destroyed by the Paw Paw. It allows the body’s own immune system to be
strengthened.
3.
Omega 3, 6, 9 - Essential Fatty Acids
(EFA’s) - important for cell membranes, and balancing of hormones (important as
mine was estrogen driven)
4.
Chinese Chi tonic - full of minerals
etc - provides building blocks for enzyme production and healthy cellular
regeneration. It includes adaptogenic herbal tonics to strengthen the immune
system, support adrenals
From Doug Kaufman
In 2016, BMC ivMedicine (1) asked
this important question: Antibiotics, Obesity and the Link to
Microbes – What Are We Doing to Our Children?
They stated, “This increase in adiposity appears to be
mediated by antibiotic-induced changes in gut microbiota composition leading to
increased short-chain fatty acid production and altered host metabolism
including upregulation of genes involved in lipogenesis.” It’s technical,
I know, but the bottom line here is that antibiotics make children fat.
Scientists have documented this fact for decades, yet antibiotic prescription
writing is at an all-time high. Now that we know with certainty that many
children become overweight by taking antibiotics, wouldn’t exercising more
caution when prescribing antibiotics seem prudent? They have tried
“antibiotic stewardship” for many years…to no avail.
From Donna Roth
There are alternatives to antibiotics. Its
Cat’s Claw combination and SilverGuard. If there is no Cat’s Claw combination
then use Echinacea Golden Seal and Silver Guard. There is also Echinacea in
liquid form. Another option is HRP-C 4 capsules 4 times a day.
Recently my son felt a fever and sinus
congestion indicating a cold. What did he do? He took Cat’s Claw combination
about 4 four times a day along with SilverGuard. He also sprayed SilverGuard
directly into his nose. It cleared up in 2 days. No antibiotics needed.
From Sayer Jy
Magnesium deficiency is often
misdiagnosed because it does not show up in blood tests - only 1% of the body's
magnesium is stored in the blood
Dr.
Norman Shealy's statements, "Every known illness is associated with a magnesium deficiency" and that, "magnesium is the most
critical mineral required for electrical stability of every cell in the body. A
magnesium deficiency may be responsible for more diseases than any other
nutrient." The truth he states exposes a gapping hole in modern medicine
that explains a good deal about iatrogenic death and disease. Because magnesium deficiency
is largely overlooked, millions of Americans suffer needlessly or are having
their symptoms treated with expensive drugs when they could be cured with
magnesium supplementation.
Few people are aware of
the enormous role magnesium plays in our bodies. Magnesium is by far the most
important mineral in the body. After oxygen, water, and basic food, magnesium
may be the most important element needed by our bodies; vitally important, yet
hardly known. It is more important than calcium, potassium or sodium and
regulates all three of them. Millions suffer daily from magnesium
deficiency without even knowing it.
The first
symptoms of deficiency can be subtle - as most magnesium is stored in the
tissues, leg cramps, foot pain, or muscle 'twitches' can be the first sign.
Other early signs of deficiency include loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting,
fatigue, and weakness. As magnesium deficiency worsens, numbness, tingling,
seizures, personality changes, abnormal heart rhythms, and coronary spasms can
occur.
Dr. Sidney Baker.
"Magnesium deficiency can affect virtually every organ system of the body.
With regard to skeletal muscle, one may experience twitches, cramps, muscle
tension, muscle soreness, including back aches, neck pain, tension headaches
and jaw joint (or TMJ) dysfunction. Also, one may experience chest tightness or
a peculiar sensation that he can't take a deep breath. Sometimes a person may
sigh a lot."
"Symptoms involving
impaired contraction of smooth muscles include constipation; urinary spasms;
menstrual cramps; difficulty swallowing or a lump in the throat-especially
provoked by eating sugar; photophobia, especially difficulty adjusting to oncoming
bright headlights in the absence of eye disease; and loud noise sensitivity
from stapedius muscle tension in the ear."
Magnesium is needed by
every cell in the body including those of the brain. It is one of the most
important minerals when considering supplementation because of its vital role
in hundreds of enzyme systems and functions related to reactions in cell metabolism,
as well as being essential for the synthesis of proteins, for the utilization
of fats and carbohydrates. Magnesium is needed not only for the production of
specific detoxification enzymes but is also important for energy production
related to cell detoxification. A magnesium deficiency can affect virtually
every system of the body.Like
water we need magnesium everyday. There is an eternal need for magnesium as well as water and
when magnesium is present in
water life and health are enhanced.
One of
the principle reason doctors write millions of prescriptions for tranquilizers
each year is the nervousness, irritability, and jitters largely brought on by
inadequate diets lacking magnesium. Persons only slightly deficient in
magnesium become irritable, highly-strung, and sensitive to noise,
hyper-excitable, apprehensive and belligerent. If the deficiency is more
severe or prolonged, they may develop twitching, tremors, irregular pulse,
insomnia, muscle weakness, jerkiness and leg and foot cramps.
Because large amounts of
calcium are lost in the urine when magnesium is under supplied, the lack of
this nutrient indirectly becomes responsible for much rampant tooth decay, poor
bone development, osteoporosis and slow healing of broken bones and
fractures. With vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), magnesium helps to reduce and dissolve
calcium phosphate kidney stones.
Magnesium deficiency may
be a common factor associated with insulin resistance. Symptoms of MS that are
also symptoms of magnesium deficiency include muscle spasms, weakness,
twitching, muscle atrophy, an inability to control the bladder, nystagmus
(rapid eye movements), hearing loss, and osteoporosis. People with MS
have higher rates of epilepsy than controls. Epilepsy has also been
linked to magnesium deficiencies
Signs of severe magnesium deficiency include:
- Extreme
thirst
- Extreme
hunger
- Frequent
urination
- Sores or
bruises that heal slowly
- Dry, itchy
skin
- Unexplained
weight loss
- Blurry
vision that changes from day to day
- Unusual
tiredness or drowsiness
- Tingling or
numbness in the hands or feet
- Frequent or
recurring skin, gum, bladder or vaginal yeast infections
But wait a minute, aren't those the same symptoms for diabetes?
Many people have diabetes for about 5 years before they show strong symptoms.
By that time, some people already have eye, kidney, gum or nerve damage caused
by the deteriorating condition of their cells due to insulin resistance and
magnesium deficiency. Dump some mercury and arsenic on the mixture of
etiologies and pronto we have the disease condition we call diabetes.
Magnesium deficiency is synonymous with diabetes and is at the
root of many if not all cardiovascular problems.
Oral magnesium supplements reduce erythrocyte[2] dehydration.[3] In
general, optimal balances of electrolytes are necessary to maintain the best
possible hydration. Diabetic thirst is initiated specifically by magnesium
deficiency with relative calcium excess in the cells. Even water, our most
basic nutrient starts having a hard time getting into the cells with more going
out through the kidneys.
Autism and Magnesium Deficiency
When dealing with autism spectrum and other
neurological disorders in children it is important to know the signs of low
magnesium: restless, can't keep still, body rocking, grinding teeth, hiccups,
noise sensitive, poor attention span, poor concentration, irritable,
aggressive, ready to explode, easily stressed. When it comes to children today
we need to assume a large magnesium deficiency for several reasons.
1) The foods they are eating are stripped of magnesium
because foods in general, as we shall see below are declining in mineral
content in an alarming way.
2) The foods many children eat are processed junk foods
that do not provide real nutrition to the body.
3) Because most children on the spectrum are not
absorbing the minerals they need even when present in the gut. Magnesium
absorption is dependent on intestinal health, which is compromised totally in
leaky gut syndromes and other intestinal problems that the majority of autism
syndrome disorders.
4) Because the oral supplements doctors rely on are not
easily absorbed, because they are not in the right form
Nature Sunshine now has my favorite Magnesium back in
stock. And it is Magnesium tablets with White Willow bark and Licorice in it.
