My Thoughts by Donna Roth January /2017


Many people diagnosed with cancer seem to think that their options are :
Chemo and radiation or
Therapeutic Nutrition
This is a totally incorrect mind set.

Nutrition is never an option. It is the Law of Nature that states that no matter what
choice you are making you must have nutrition for the energy you need to heal your body.

We often hear this, “There is no science to prove that the therapeutic nutrition program works."
To this I say this therapeutic nutrition follows the Law of Nature! A law is a law; it is a fact, it does
not change with the next wind that blows its way. It is Law of Nature that states you must supply your body with nutrition to sustain life. Let’s think about this. Do we need science to prove that this law is so? It is just simple common sense.  It is the Law of Nature that states that we must drink water to sustain the life of our body. . Do we need science to prove that this law is so? It is just simple common sense.
It is the Law of Nature that states that dead matter invites bacteria to break it down. Do we need science to prove that this law is so? It is evident wherever we go. Imagine what would happen if leaves did not break down by bacterial action into soil, if waste material did not break down by bacterial action, if dead animals did not break down by bacterial action; we would be swimming in a cesspool of waste debris. Bacterial action is needed to eat away at waste matter so that life could continue. It  is the Law of Nature and we do not need science to prove it. It just is.
Think about science and the winds of change in science. What about thalidomide that was scientifically
proven to be safe and effective and the consequences of all the children born without limbs?
There are numerous drugs with science to state that were safe and initially given the green light to be sold in the market only to be withdrawn a short time thereafter because of strokes, heart attacks and so on! Science is not a reliability factor!

Now I am also here to say that every nutritional  product I  use in my therapeutic nutritional  programs comes from a Nature's Sunshine lab that has gone through multiple rigorous quality control testing to ensure that the nutrient values of these products are not tampered with by the use of glyphosates or chemical fertilizers or modified genes and so on. These products are pure and come straight from Nature. They are not manmade and I am here to say that no man made product can provide your body with nutrition that way Nature does. Nature’s nutrition in its untampered pure form simply cannot be replicated  by the hands of man. This is also the Law of Nature.

I want to share some details about Nature’s Sunshine and quality control.

“We travel the world to inspect our suppliers' facilities and processes to ensure the highest quality natural ingredients are harvested and handled to protect key essential nutrients. Then, we verify each ingredient’s true beneficial potential.

Our staff science team formulates our products with a relentless commitment to ingredient purity and potency. That’s why our customers trust Nature’s Sunshine natural products to deliver proven, repeatable results.

We make and package Nature’s Sunshine products in our own facility, under conditions and guidelines that meet the most stringent global regulations.

We don’t have one single laboratory . We have six. Over the past forty-two years, we’ve studied and determined the optimal formulations for literally tens of thousands of natural ingredients, and we’re fully committed to learning even more.
Science means scrutiny, too. A full staff of quality assurance PhDs are focused on testing every natural ingredient in every Nature’s Sunshine product in our Microbiology, Vitamin, Mineral and Herb Labs.
That’s why we can confidently guarantee the purity and potency of every product that bears our name.
Our premium quality products do more than improve people’s health—they transform their lives. Sourced, manufactured and tested against the most rigorous quality standards, our unique product portfolio delivers more than over 500 personalized solutions to optimize your health.
So where do the plants come from that are so conveniently placed into capsules for your use :
Kelp comes from Nova Scotia. NSP Kelp contained 2.5 to 6.5 more iodine than that of the competitor.
Paw Paw comes from Eastern Us, tested by Dr. Jerry McLaughlin in a lab using smaller animals to be 1 million times more effective than certain chemotherapies
 NSP High-Potency Garlic contains 400 mg of standardized, stabilized, high potency garlic, which is equal to 1,200 mg of fresh garlic. This garlic was tested against 5 leading brqands and its potency was superior.
Black Walnut has been tested to contain high amounts of chromium and iodine. Great for cleaning out parasites, treating anemia , skin problems and menstral dysfunctions.
Astragalus: comes from Asia and has been tested to contain several very beneficial compounds. It has been tested and shown to increase stem cells in the bone marrow and lymph tissues .It is wonderful for fatigue and adrenal exhaustion.
Cat’s Claw combination has an amazing amount of tests behind it.Cat’s Claw comes from a vine in Peru.  It has been used to successfully treat 14 types of cancer cases ( 1988) Dandelion comes from Europe and North America. It cleans the blood and the liver, pancreas, stomach, spleen and kidneys. It removes excess water, normalized blood pressure and enhances the flow of bile.

Open Mindedness: What if the things you know are not true?

Open Mindedness: What if the things you know are not true?
Dr. Wayne Dyer once said,” An open mind allows you to explore and create and grow. Remember that progress would be impossible if we always did the things the way we always have.”
Think about cancer for a moment. We have been giving money to cancer research for decades and yet a cure is not found. The medical establishment continues to do the things they have always done and progress is not happening. In the 1400’s it was an absolute belief that the world was flat and to think otherwise was foolish. Well guess what? Along comes Christopher Columbus to challenge that belief system. In his open-mindedness he courageously tested the waters. He sailed the ocean blue in 1492 and found the world to be round. He was instrumental in shifting the entire paradigm. Now did this belief system change overnight? No! It took generations to change it.
Taking this analogy to cancer, I have witnessed 100’s of people overcome their own cancers since 1998. My first cancer client was Sheena, 25 years old with 2 months to live. She refused to accept a death sentence at 25 and said this, “Why would I go to a doctor that has given me a death sentence?” At this point her mind became opened and she ended up in my office ready to take on a new adventure. She followed the therapeutic nutritional program and became cancer free. It was a delight to have her visit me during the recent Christmas season and to once again express her gratitude to me. This is 2017 and Sheena has been cancer free since 1998.  Now Sheena with her new found information has shared her knowledge with  hundreds of people but not one person has taken it on. They simply don’t believe her. How deeply embedded a belief system can become.“Opened minded people do not impose their beliefs on others. They just accept all of life’s perspectives and realities doing their own thing in peace without judgement.” Sheena is a breath of fresh air. She approached each moment of her healing journey with fresh eyes and an opened heart and she chose to  no longer become defined by her doctors limitations and belief systems. She refused to accept their NO HOPE future for her. To Sheena , her future was not dismal death  but life of light and energy. She was optimistic, she was grateful for all the new lessons she was learning and she found joy inside her hardships. And she knew that she would have to look to unlikely outside sources which is why I came into the picture.
This evening I am that unlikely source for you. I know your questions. “ She is not a doctor so what does she know about cancer? “ Actually I know nothing about cancer but I know how you can overcome it. OR if her program is so good why doesn’t everyone else know about it? “ Remember Christopher Columbus was also ostracized and criticized by closed minded people.
This evening I want to acknowledge you for stepping outside the box and being here in attendance. I know you are here with an open mind. So I ask one thing of you this evening. Stop filling your mind of judgements of the things that will be presented. Some things I say may ruffle your feathers. Please stay in that space of learning and understanding.

What if what you have learned is not true? Tonight I will reveal things that you have never heard of before. Stay opened and be prepared to learn. Let’s start.

From the Desk of Donna Roth January 2017

Happy New Year!
This year let's make it a goal to become a bit more educated about our bodies, how they function,what is health, what steals our health and let's work to make our health better this year than last year.

TAFYH ( Taking Action For Your Health)
It is a fact that  about ½ of all medical clinical trials do not get published! Why? Trials only get published if they show favorable results. Reason: They may threaten commercial enterprise. “ “They are allowed to legally withhold trials.” Drug companies evaluate their own products!! Hmmmm!!! Yet we are made to think that medicine is infallible. May we be reminded that in the 1950’s thalidomide was released into the market and prescribed to pregnant women. The effects were devastating with over 10,000 fetal deaths and those who survived ended up with missing limbs. Why do we continue to put our trust in medical science?  I learned over 30 years ago that the laws of Nature need no science, plants were given to us to nourish our bodies and they have a therapeutic effect if taken long enough and in high enough doses. Yet how many of us out there trust Nature or even know about these therapeutic plants? This year 2017 I challenge you to do TAFYH, a course of action that provides you with education regarding Nature and its plants for therapeutic purposes. This is knowledge I am truly grateful for. And I am even more grateful to announce that TAFYH, a course designed by me, Donna Roth and my daughter, Susan, is now a recognized course by Doctors of Natural Medicine from the prestigious Canadian College of Humanitarian Medicine. www.tafyh.net

TAFYH is a structured result oriented 15 minute daily teleconference call with an expert TAFYH Grad Leader. It is a unique program where you work with a team of 4-6 people following a committed health protocol. TAFYH is coupled with meticulous quality controlled therapeutic nutritional products. The 38 TAFYH lessons, which are emailed to you daily, educate you about the sources of inflammation and how to address them, how to use foods, super foods, supplements and herbal combinations to prevent and overcome numerous health challenges. TAFYH teaches you how to become responsible for the health  of your own body and educates you on how to empower family, friends and clients in a perpetual healthy lifestyle. A coaching certificate is issued upon completion of TAFYH ceremonies and TAFYH leader training. TAFYH offers you a golden opportunity to build a great business which also generates residual income.

Intention for TAFYH:
1.         To improve health dramatically and to be empowered to do so.
2.         To set the stage for your health for the rest of your life
3.         To help others to do the same
4.         To be committed to being on time and to do the assignments.
5.         To assist in your business growth and build residual income

Time: 15 minutes via teleconference calls daily, Monday-Friday 
Duration: 38 Sessions.
•          Daily interaction
•          Daily accountability and commitments 
•          Daily educational presentations
•          Daily script emailed after each call.  
Gall Bladder Flush
One man reported that he did the 3 day liver cleanse using LIV-C , Hydrangea and Lecithin and then moved into taking on the gall bladder flush. The following day he passed hundreds of dissolved green blobs indicating that the flush dissolved the gall stones and expelled them through the bowel movements. I say congratulations for stepping outside the box and taking responsibility for the health of the gall bladder and liver. Sometimes it may take several flushes to completely dissolve the gall stones and get them to move out. One thing I know for certain is that this cleanse will never hurt anyone if. There are specific instructions that are followed in doing this cleanse. I know of many TAFYH grads who have completed the gall bladder flush very successfully. Yeah !! Their livers and gall bladders are healthier as a result of this cleanse. The gall bladder is the holding vessel for the bile which is produced by the liver for the purpose of digesting fats and for scrubbing the intestinal tract. An unobstructed gall bladder means healthier bowels and a more efficient digestive system.

Your Microbiome by Dr. Jay
It is scientifically documented that the health of your gut = the health of your body. Hippocrates concluded that after a lifetime of work “all diseases begin in the gut.” Research in abnormal gut microbiome resulted in the following:
Depression
Anxiety
Cardiovascular disease
Fungal overload
IBS
Colitis
Cancer
Obesity
Inflammation
Insulin resistance
Lower leptin levels
Leaky gut
Non alcoholic fatty liver
Obesity
Poor teeth
Salivary malfunctions

The above information should move you into taking action for your gut.
1. Take lots of prebiotics. They feed the probiotics and keep them active in the intestinal tract; fermented vegetables, Green Zone, Flax Lignans, Psyllium Hulls, berries, seeds,
2. Take Probiotic 11 https://www.naturessunshine.com/content/ca/factsheetsEnglish/1512.pdf  about 10 all at one time , once a day in the evening to build up your good micro bacteria intestinal count. Do this for about 2 bottles.
https://www.naturessunshine.com/content/ca/sku/image_natr2012/1512_small.jpg
3. Take Bacillus Coagulans https://www.naturessunshine.com/content/ca/factsheetsEnglish/6109.pdf    about 1 three times a day. It is a type of probiotic that bypasses the stomach and moves into the intestinal area to multiply and help your gut to cleanse more efficiently and thoroughly. https://www.naturessunshine.com/content/ca/sku/image_natr2012/6109_Small.jpg

Prostate PSA Drops


Donna;
I had my prostate PSA test done a few weeks ago; it is 4.3, down from 5.9 in 06-2016. Though, I will continue with the program as I am sure prostate cancer cannot be considered to be gone with a single lower PSA test.
John

Donna
 I have great news…my PSA number went from 4.0 to 3.8…difference is only 0.2; however, it did not go up.I am continuing with my diet & Paw-Paw, etc.

Abdominal Pain and Thyroid

Abdominal Pain and Thyroid Problems by Charlotte 
Charlottte was in serious trouble with all kinds of muscle and joint pain,” My arms , wrists and elbows were so sore I thought I would have to quit my job.” On top of this Charlotte would have acute pain disorders in her abdomen.” I could never go for a hike with my husband as the abdominal pain was excruciating.” This pain would happen off and on for 10 years.” I spent many days in pain on the couch.” In 2004 Charlotte  underwent a colonoscopy and an X ray of the gall bladder was taken to determine if there were gall stones. Nothing was found. She was sent home no further ahead. Then one day Charlotte happened to be at small health fair when she met Kathy, DNM, who told Charolette all about TAFYH. This sounded just what Charlotte was looking for. Under the leadership of Kathy Charlotte took action for her health. She did the bowel cleanse , the kidney flush and the liver cleanse and the gall bladder flush.Even though the doctor told her there were no gall stones Charlotte passed 26 stones during her cleanse. It was during the liver cleanse that she noticed that she was passing liver flukes and 2 other kinds of parasites. At this point Kathy suggested the Taio He Pak. Charlotte did this cleanse for 8 months. It was after the 8 th month that a really strange thing passed; it was a big worm! Life took on a totally different turn after this 8th month. The pain in the wrists, muscles, joints were all gone. The abdominal pain was no longer there. She could hike with her husband for an hour and a half without any abdominal pain. Finally Charlotte took on the health of her thyroid. She had been taking thyroid medications for years. She was able to wean off all her thyroid medications and today Charlotte is pain free medication free and lives to share her amazing story with others. She is a TAFYH grad and a TAFYH leaders leading teams of her own. She will be my guest speaker on Monday Dec 12 to tell her own story and to give you all the details.


Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia by Karen
In 1996 Karen was diagnosed with fibromyalgia where there she experienced chronic pain down the right side then down the left side. She decided that she would address her problem using alternative measures but when she did a consultation with Donna Roth she was told to eliminate all grains, sugar, pop and wine her response to this was , “Forget that!” So she refused to pursue the program.” I just didn’t do any of the program. “ She did, however, stop coffee for 1 month and when she tried coffee after that she felt sick. By 2005 Karen was tired of the pain so back so back to see Donna Roth. The same program was suggested. This time Karen went off all grains , sugar  and did the high dense nutritious smoothies with Mineral Chi Tonic,Chlorphyll and lots of Cat’s Claw. Afer doing this for 2 months she noticed that there would be perhaps ½ a day where there was no pain. There was something happening. Excitement and hope came into existence. Then there would be 2 days a week without pain, then 1 week  without pain and this progressed until there was absolutely no pain at all. In 2012 when she visited Donna Roth the third time, Candida Clear cleanse was suggested. This time Karen admitted that she had still been drinking red wine. Donna clearly stated that the wine must stop to clear up the Candida.Karen’s words, But I love red wine!’ Karen recalls the words that were spoken to her , “ Karen, then why did you come here for?” Karen was determined to get her health back . She stopped red wine . Months later when she tried drinking red wine it totally made her sick. Here she is today, November 2016, pain free, and 40 pounds lighter.

At the recent Cindy Klement event in Vancouver we were privileged to hear and meet Pearl who stood up to tell us her incredible story of overcoming cervical cancer all without surgery, chemo or radiation. She just followed the Paw Paw therapeutic nutrition program. Today Pearl is cancer free, a TAFYH grad and a TAFYH leader leading teams of her own.

If you had attended the Cindy Klement event in Vancouver you would have met :
Juanita, uterine cancer free
Ellen , colon cancer free
Fran whose husband’s TURP prostate surgery was cancelled.
Shauna who is breast cancer free with 2 little boys; note she was told she would never have babies.

Nature’s Sunshine Convention 2016 in Calgary

Nature’s Sunshine Convention 2016 in Calgary
People are involved and passionate about making Nature’s Sunshine a common household name. Herewith I give you the names of some of the people who attended the NSP convention:
Michael no longer has prostate cancer and is so very grateful he discovered Nature’s Sunshine.
Diane has been MS symptom free for over 25 years after being in a wheel chair.
Phyll no longer has rheumatoid arthritis and her cancer is gone.
Bob was diagnosed with esophagus cancer in 2003 with a prognosis of no hope. He is alive and well .
Kathy has lost over 60 pounds using the Metabolic InForm program.
Lisa and Dave have both lost weight. They did the Gall Bladder Flush to dissolve and move the stones.
Dr. Jay overcame kidney cancer and discussed it at my private meeting.
Tina has lost over 50 pounds.
Charlie lost 50 pounds and is off the blood pressure and cholesterol medications.

Ria had problems with her urinary system with symptoms of frequent urination. She also had a serious knee problem with lots of pain. A knee surgery was scheduled. But Ria chose a different path. In April of 2015 Ria decided to take on the One Day Kidney Flush and to do it once a week. She did this flush every week for one year. The results were miraculous. The frequent urination has totally subsided and the knee pain is gone. The knee surgery was cancelled.
Ria also did the 3 Day Liver Cleanse and when she saw her acupuncturist it was reported to her that her liver was in perfect order.  The power of healing from herbs and nutrition is miraculous.
Dr. Jay:
It’s not alternative medicine if it works! It just works!
In the world we live in we have an epidemic !
The road to good health is paved with good intestines!
Herbs are energy. Herbs are information. Herbs are food.
With the 18,000 people I have seen in my practice the common saying was, “ I have no energy.”
“Energy Syndrome” comes from poor eating, obesity, metabolic syndrome, prediabetes, inflammation.
Inflammation is the primary cause of all disease.” My job is to help you improve your quality of life.”
1 in 3 people today have Cardiometabolicsymdrome; prediabetes heart disease, dementia, faty liver, cancer, infertility. All of these people are on medications such as blood pressure , statins, metformin etc.
Genes+ Lifestyle + Diet+ Toxins = Cardiometabolic   Syndrome.
You have Cardiometabolic   Syndrome when the waist is more than 35 in. for women and 40 in. for  men, your blood pressure is more than 130/85 or you are on blood pressure medications.
The solution to Cardiometabolic   Syndrome is the clinically tested Metabolic InForm Starting Kit, a one month supply  which includes:
Pea Protein or Soy Protein , with added clinical phytosterols
Cardio tablets and Super Omega 3 and Super Vitamin and Mineral tablet
Berberine capsules  to lower blood sugar levels.
Probiotic 11 for gut health.
This entire above Kit is designed to Reset the gut, Repair the gut, Replenish the gut and Reverse Cardiometabolic   Syndrome.

“ No one else out there has a product just like this”. States Dr. Lamb.
Look after the gut and you look after serotonin levels in the brain, depression, dementia, diabetes, heart, obesity, liver problems, insulin resistance.
In the clinical study the following was noted: Insulin lowered by 30%, 21.5% fat mass reduction. Lower cholesterol, weight loss, normalized blood pressure.
One more new product introduced by Nature’s Sunshine is Essential Authentic  Oils.
Please attend the upcoming NSP events with Cindy Klement :
Wednesday, Nov. 16 at 6:30 pm , Kelowna , Ramada Inn
Friday, Nov. 18 at 6:30 pm, Burnaby , Holiday Inn Express , MetroTown.

Cancer Success Story ; Breast Cancer by Gail September 2016-09-06


Gail lives in a little town outside of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and with her permission I was able to interview her in regards to her breast cancer story. I found Gail to be a powerful woman who took control of her own health after a horrible experience with chemotherapy. Her bottom line was to let everyone know that people with cancers are not told the whole truth about chemo and that there is another way if only they would listen. Today Gail willingly shares her story with all of us. I know that there are others out there whose minds have opened up and who are lending their ears to hear Gail’s story.

“I was diagnosed with breast cancer on June 9/2014. This was a devasting experience for me but I decided to brave the surgery and I agreed to have the lump removed on July 9/2014. The next step was to do chemotherapy treatments. Now I was taking a thyroid medication at that time so I was concerned that the chemo would interfere with  the drug. I counselled with the doctor about that and I also went to see the pharmacist to talk about the drug I was on. I was reassured that the chemo would not interfere with the drug I was on for my thyroid. After the second chemotherapy treatment I became horribly sick. I honestly think the chemo was close to killing me. I certainly was not prepared for the suffering I would undergo. Noone told me. They told me that I would be okay and I trusted them. I knew I would be somewhat sick but no one prepared me for this kind of reaction. My mind went crazy. I couldn’t control myself. I didn’t care about anything, I wasn’t eating. I couldn’t make any meals. I couldn’t do the laundry. I couldn’t be with my family even though I wanted to. My mind was continually racing . I could not sleep and my sleep was in small doses. My daughter, Carleen was there to  help me and she did everything in her power to  help me. And I am totally grateful to her. But I was in such a serious condition that I  said to myself that I can’t live like this any more. The only person who really understood my situation was my nurse practitioner , Barb. She was really awesome. I decided I would go to the Psych ward. There I was put on a medication and I spent time with a support team where I was able to talk and that helped me a lot. I spent from Dec. 25 to Jan. 14/ 2015 in this ward. I was finally released where I was able to function. Then I started radiation treatments. I stayed with my sister, Eileen and she was awesome. I did 5 weeks of radiation treatments. They made me feel really tired but nothing compared to the chemo treatments. I absolutely refused to do any more chemotherapy treatments! When I told my doctor this I was told,’ You can go home and you don’t need to see me anymore.” The feeling I got was “go home and die.” I was angry and I decided that I would not die! I would find a different way.

It was shortly thereafter that my husband’s first cousin came into the picture. Gilbert told me about the Paw Paw program. I was willing to try anything because I was not going back to the chemo way. I contacted Gail Boyce who told me how to do the program and then I contacted Donna Roth who gave me further instruction and confidence. I felt really good about this program. It just felt right. I learned a lot about nutrition. I didn’t know that nutrition could be such a big part of living a healthy life.  I started doing the program. It was really easy. I ate only meats and vegetables and salads and berries from the garden. We have our own beef and our own home grown chickens so that part was easy. I stopped eating all breads and grains and dried beans. But I still had one big problem that was lingering and that was depression. I think it was a lot to do with chemo brain but then I was prone to depression all my life.So one day I called Donna Roth and she told me to buy 2 bottles of Probiotic 11 and to take it in high doses. I took 9 in the morning and 9 in the evening. Within about a week of doing this I noticed that my depression was lifting. For the first time in  my life the depression had settled down and I was able to function and enjoy life.

I was determined to  take on the Paw Paw program and do it  until  I got over the cancer. Finances were tight for me and I really had to budget to pay for my products. I have taught my children to know the difference between what you need and what you want. I knew what I wanted and I set aside the money I needed for my supplements and  I made it work!

I continued the Paw Paw program until in January of 2016 I was told there was no sign of cancer. The medical tests proved that there was no cancer at all. In June of 2016 all tests once again proved that the cancer was gone. I even had my ovaries tested and there was no sign of any cancer. The doctor told me that I did not need to see him anymore.

This has been quite a journey for me but today I look back and I can be grateful to the cancer I had. It made me take control of my life. I discovered not to be led by doctors because they don’t tell the whole truth. I told my doctor that there was one thing she could do for others and that is to tell them the whole truth. I have listened to many doctors speak on TV and not one of them would ever take that chemo they prescribe to someone else. Today I am telling everyone if I were you I would do the Paw Paw program. But when I talk to people they just turn away from it. I had a lot of anger! I was really angry that they put me through such a terrifying experience. I was angry at the chemo. Today I am grateful to anger because it pushed me to look for a different way. I thank my daughter, Carleen who really worked hard with me to express my anger. She would throw a pillow at me really hard and she kept doing it until I grabbed the pillow and threw it back at her. Then we would both laugh. I am thankful to Gilbert for introducing me to Gail. She taught me a lot. I now know what I am supposed to eat. I look forward to my Smoothies every day and I will continue to take the Mineral Chi Tonic, the Flax LIgnans, the Cat’s Claw, the Paw Paw and the Probiotic 11. Over this period of time I also lost a lot of weight. Today I am 100 pounds lighter and I am no longer overweight. I am grateful to you , Donna, for putting this program together.
