Namely, drugs are frequently ineffective for huge swaths of the population. "The vast majority of drugs - more than 90 per cent - only work in 30 or 50 per cent of the people," Dr Roses said. "I wouldn’t say that most drugs don’t work. I would say that most drugs work in 30 to 50 per cent of people. Drugs out there on the market work, but they don’t work in everybody.“

  7. Acute Inflammation = Life Saving  Swelling (Tumor)  Heat (Calor)  Redness (Rubor)  Pain (Dolor) Chronic Inflammation = Death and Disease from Catabolism Death By A Thousand Cuts
  8.  Antioxidants have extra electrons and can neutralize free radicals Cell Destruction / Cell Regeneration Oxidative stress is when a molecule looses and electron and creates a free radical the causes are: •Poor diet •Drugs •Vaccinations •Pollution •Injury •Natural aging •Stress
  9. In conclusion, oxidant/antioxidant balances were changed in fibromyalgia. Increased free radical levels may be responsible for the development of fibromyalgia. These findings may support the hypothesis of fibromyalgia as an oxidative disorder. Rheumatology International April 2005, Volume 25, Issue 3, pp 188-190 Free radicals and antioxidants in primary fibromyalgia: an oxidative stress disorder? Fibromyalgia = Oxidative Stress Disorder

  31. Fluoride as a Medical Intervention for Hyperthyroid The use of fluoride as an anti-thyroid treatment beginning in the 1800s linking fluoride ingestion to goiter, a swelling of the thyroid gland resulting from a hypothyroid condition. Up until the 1970s, scientists in Europe prescribed fluoride to reduce the basal metabolism rate in patients with an over- active thyroid gland doses of just 2 to 3 milligrams of fluoride is sufficient to reduce thyroid activity in hyperthyroid patients . . Dose (mg) .353 .173 1.80 Item  12 oz. Coke  8 oz Milk  6 oz. Wheaties Fluoride PPM .98 .72 10   Exceeds "Optimum Dose"  233%

When a carrot is juiced, removing the fiber, nearly 100% of the beta carotene can be assimilated.

Male fertility has reduced 70% in 10 years Alzheimers = diabetes of the brain MS is a gut issue linked to cortisol Osteoporosis = autoimmune system disease caused by systemic inflammation Low Cortisol increases inflammation CFS, Fibromyalgia, = low cortisol levels Steroids cause low adrenal function Female Cortisol levels can be lowered 50% within 5 min. with a quiet room and string music and deep breathing Connecting with others (social Interaction),Yoga, lowers cortisol Vit C suppresses abnormal hormone Licorice, ginseng, can raise fatigued adrenals
  36. Multiple sclerosis (MS), like other autoimmune diseases, affects women more often than men (about 2 to 1), has its onset during the reproductive years (especially after the age of 30, when estrogen is very high) is often exacerbated premenstrually, and is sometimes alleviated by pregnancy (Drew and Chavez, 2000), when progesterone is very high. Women with a high ratio of estrogen to progesterone have been found to have the most active brain lesions (Bansil, et al., 1999). in animals, autoimmune diseases can be brought on by treatment with estrogen (Ahmed and Talal).

  38. HFCS & High Cholesterol & High Triglycerides •HFCS increases triglycerides •Estrogen treatment is a common cause of high triglycerides •High triglycerides can be from deficiencies of magnesium, copper, and protein •Toxins, including some drugs and herbs, can irritate or stimulate the liver to produce too much triglyceride • High cholesterol is more closely connected to hypothyroidism than hypertriglyceridemia •Increased T3 will immediately increase the conversion of cholesterol to progesterone and bile acids.
  39. •Progesterone protects against the catabolic effects of cortisol, its effects are the opposite of estrogen's. •Progesterone can instantly activate the thyroid and the ovaries •Cholesterol is converted to pregnenolone and progesterone by the ovaries, the adrenals, and the brain Food that increase Progesterone: •eggs, wild yams, shell fish, turmeric, walnuts, oregano, thyme Progesterone

Editor's Notes

  1. Blues and purples not only add beautiful shades of tranquility and richness to your plate, they add health-enhancing flavonoids, phytochemicals, and antioxidants. The phytochemical known as Anthocyanins are pigments responsible for the blue color in vegetables and fruits, and are being studied for their role in the body’s defense of harmful carcinogens. Blueberries, in particular, are not only rich in Vitamin C and folic acid and high in fiber and potassium, but they are proven to be the #1 source of antioxidants of any food available today.
