ELIMINATION - PROVOCATION

A strict elimination diet is the most powerful tool in medicine that can be applied to almost any medical condition.

Tylenol ®

In 1967, my pharmacologyprofessor told us that “acetaminophenwas too harmful to the liver & kidneysto ever be put on the market.”

Chicken SoupCysteine, onion, garlic,vegetable bouquet withtubers & greens, peppersblack & red.

Indole–3–carbinol (I-3-C) Proliferative estrogens implicated in head & neck

cancers, breast, prostate, uterine, colon & cervical cancers.

Hydroxylation pathway largely determines proliferative factor.

I-3-C promotes benign pathway, as does flax, kudzu & soy isoflavones.

For cysts or lumps or breasts large with little firmness. Binds similarly, but more benignly & effectively than tamoxifen.

Iodine test Thyroid drives detoxification (digestion in

reverse). Infection, excessive mucus or dominance of

proliferative estrogens linked with iodine insufficiency.

Estrogen dominace diminishes thyroid function.

Paint on skin silver dollar size tincture iodine. Best to have a smudge remaining 24hrs later. If disappears sooner than that, take pills or apply iodine until stain partly remains 24hrs.

Sunlight - the ultimate detoxifier?

Russian experiments - animals exposed to correct doses of sunlight could clear wide range of toxins faster than animals reared without sun.

Toxins studied: quartz and coal dusts, toxic minerals such as lead, cadmium and mercury, liver poisons (carbon tetrachloride) & pesticide neurotoxins.

Sunlight speeded up clearance of body toxins to from double to as much as twenty times. Best effect was obtained when sunlight exposure had started some time before toxin exposure.

Ascorbate FlushBuffered ascorbate one teaspoonful (4gms) dissolved in 2 - 4 oz water or juice.Try one teaspoonful every 15 minutes or if you are quite ill, two teaspoonfuls every 15 minutes.Press on to enema-like evacuation of liquid. Do not stop at loose stool. PERQUE Buffered C Powder800-525-7372

Detox Healing

Friendly commensal bacteria Bacteria normally reside in intestines. Produce peptides to stimulate immunity & reduce

inflammation, keeping our ‘guard up.’ Antibiotics or aggressive cleanses destroy both

beneficial and disease-causing bacteria, temporarily stopping production of these immune-modulating peptides.

Tummy too clean is extra susceptible to food borne infections as Salmonella & E. coli.

SPEEDING HEALING

1. Arnica homeopathic for injury.2. Vitamin C, 1000mg sustained release, twice.3. Pancreatic and plant enzymes, large frequent doses, best on empty stomach.4. Colostrum extracts in small, frequent doses.5. Placenta freeze-dried is richest natural source of anabolic and repair hormones.6. Melatonin 1.8mg timed release at bedtime.7. Avoid high glycemic foods, especially late.8. Soaked seeds (quality protein) early & greens.9. Plentiful water, avoid distilled. Plump cells.

MELATONIN: ANTIOXIDANT PAR EXCELLENCE Russel Jaffe, PhD. Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is

superior & ubiquitously-acting free radical scavenger & antioxidant.

1) Melatonin directly detoxifies a variety of oxygen & nitrogen-based ROS & non-radicals.

2) Metabolites that are formed when melatonin scavenges radicals are radical scavengers (thus, this antioxidant cascade greatly increases efficacy of melatonin as scavenger).

3) Melatonin stimulates a number of antioxidative enzymes including SOD, glutathione peroxidase & catalase which rid the cell of toxic agents.

MELATONIN: ANTIOXIDANT PAR EXCELLENCE Russel Jaffe, PhD. 4) Melatonin inhibits pro oxidative enzyme NOS. 5) Melatonin stimulates production of another

important intracellular antioxidant, glutathione. 6) Increases efficiency of mitochondrial electron

transport, likely reducing free radical generation. 7) Stimulates ATP product which enhances the

ability of cells to repair free radical damage. 8) Readily absorbed via any route enters all cells

and subcellular organelles 9) No known pro oxidative activity unlike some

other classical antioxidants & now known to be available in edible foods (tart cherries).

Mercury & other toxins can hurt you on the way in or on the way out! Experience rashes, fatigue, lethargy, nausea,

irritability, anger or mood swings? Vit C, NAC, lipoic acid & greens chelate toxins. During detoxification of heavy metals & other

pollutants, one may experience pain as pollutants are stirred up & moved about & out!

Keep exits open: water & fiber & cod liver oil. Chlorella & other greens, Vitamin C, NAC & lipoic

acid are powerful heavy metal movers, best to begin regime gradually over first few days & build dosage. Keep up multiminerals!

Baths Salt base: 2/3 cup sea salt, 1/3 cup

Epson salt & 3 heaping tablespoons baking soda – or just 2 cups Epson salt.

Sodium bicarb absorbs toxins, so you do not reabsorb. Helps balance pH.

Add only 5-15 drops of essential oils, (20 drops in larger tubs) - one drop of essential oil has 40 thousand million million million molecules.

Baths promote sweating & help cleanse. Best way to really sweat is to run bath

water as hot as you can stand it. Running bath while sitting in tub allows better tolerance of hotter bath water.

Carefully get out, wrap yourself quickly in flannel sheet & then warm blanket. Lie down & remain still. Sleep.

Enormous sweating typically promoted. Wash off in shower after wrap, to limit

reabsorption of toxins. Drink water. Broken many fevers > bath / salt base, 5

drops bay laurel +7 drops lavender.

Live a long lifePolymeal includes wine, fish, dark chocolate, fruits, vegetables, garlic & almonds.All best consumed daily, except fish (limited due to mercury to 2-4 X / week). www.vitalchoice.comDrinking 150ml of wine daily reduces heart & artery disease 32%. Eating fish 4X / week cuts risk 14%. 100gms dark chocolate daily day lowers blood pressure (systolic 5 & diastolic 2), risk down 20%. 400gms fruits & vegetables does same job of reducing blood pressure as dark chocolate, & both garlic & almonds lower cholesterol.Purslane (portulacca) rich in EFAs & is green.
