Bionase « A canna’ change the laws of physics Red light redux Posted by apgaylard on May 18, 2011 Three years ago I investigated claims that were being made for a red-light phototherapy device, marketed as a hay fever treatment by Lloydspharmacy. The claims were based on a single, small, un-replicated trial with blinding problems (Neuman and Finkelstein, 1997). The only new investigation of red-light devices phototherapy treatment for hay fever I am aware of was published in 2009. On the positive side, the authors found: “Significant reductions in severity of symptom scores were found for sneezing, running nose, running eyes and itchy mouth/palate (p < or = 0.05).” But, on the other hand: “No significant differences were found in the results for itchy eyes, itchy nose, itchy throat, ECPs, PIFn and PEFn.” The authors concluded: “The results show that the device significantly reduced some hay fever symptoms. Stuck at a Red Light Posted by apgaylard on July 1, 2008 Now, as the article is ten years old I wasn’t very optimistic.

The Redox Doc | The Redox Doc Enviromedica Culture and History of Clay Consumption In fact, eating clay is a global practice that has existed among humans since their evolution from primates, and one that continues today among traditional ethnic groups as well as numerous animal species. The practice of eating clay has been studied in present and traditional cultures from areas across continents, including present-day Arizona and California, Central and South America, Sweden and Sardinia, sub-Saharan Africa, Indonesia, and Australia. Historically, clay eating has been associated with treatments for cholera and bacterial infection. In a practice dating back to Greek and Roman times and later absorbed by Christianity, holy clay tablets were widely distributed and traded throughout the Mediterranean region and Western Europe for use in religious customs and rituals, and as cures for poison and the plague. Clay Eating Among Pregnant Women Pregnancy is a period of both increased nutritional needs and increased vulnerability. References

Interview With Dr Gerald Pollack: Using Water For Optimal Health | Selfhacked If you’re more advanced in this area, I recommend listening to the video on 1.5-2X speed (click on link to youtube and press the settings button on bottom right). You can also subscribe and get the podcasts on Itunes and any app that you use to listen to podcasts, including Beyondpod, etc… If you look at the interview, I cut him short sometimes and this is because I had a lot of questions and I wanted to cover them. Some of it was just me being overexcited about his ideas and being more impulsive. I didn’t want to just rehash the other stuff that he spoke about in his other talks. He was really generous with his time as well, especially given how busy he is. You must realize that Dr Pollack is way more knowledgeable about physics, chemistry and biology than the schmucks on Quackwatch or “Science-Based Medicine”, who I can tell you don’t know shit (purely from a knowledge standpoint). -This is a must hear episode. -His book is called The Fourth Phase of Water, it’s got 4.9 stars on Amazon.

Ayurveda What is Ayurveda?Is Ayurveda a form of holistic medicine?How is Ayurveda different from conventional Western medicine?What are the doshas?What is the Ayurvedic perspective on health and illness? Q: What is Ayurveda? Q: Is Ayurveda a form of holistic medicine? Ayurveda takes holistic medicine a step further, treating people not as isolated individuals but as an inextricable part of the whole universe. Q: How is Ayurveda different from conventional Western medicine? Ayurveda teaches that all health-related measures — whether an exercise program, dietary plan or herbal supplement — must be based on an understanding of an individual’s unique mind-body constitution or dosha. In addition, while Western medicine has tended to treat the symptoms of disease, Ayurveda seeks to eliminate illness by treating the underlying cause. An Ayurvedic doctor, on the other hand, would seek to understand the root imbalances contributing to the depression. Q: What are the doshas?

Borax -- The Inexpensive Detox, Arthritis, Osteoporosis And Mycoplasma Cure Written by Chef Lynda Absolutely nothing is more disheartening and frustrating than to be doing everything you believe to be right, and spending hours a day teaching others about real food and nutrition, while suffering in silence with unexplained joint pain and trying to hide an ever incapacitating limp! And then at a Weston A. Price conference on nutrition, Sally Fallon casually dropped a ‘precious jewel’ that has given me the promise of a whole new day! BORON is a mineral that is simply an activator. Boron also assists in preventing arthritis and tooth decay. Boron deficiency can cause cell walls to become very weak and fragile, rendering the cells incapable of properly transferring nutrients into them. …Boron is a very important part of a long chain that intertwines all the minerals necessary for individual cell growth and health! Boron is essential for ALL life in plants as well as animals. Chemical fertilizers inhibit the uptake of Boron from the soil. Dr. Most of Dr. Dr. Dr.

Hydrogen Peroxide — "Medical Miracle" Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) ranks up there as one of the best household remedies. Hydrogen peroxide is one of the few “miracle substances” still available to the general public; it is safe, readily available, and dirt cheap. And best of all, it works! Did you know that you probably had your first sip of hydrogen peroxide shortly after you took your first breath? As far back as the early nineteenth century, hydrogen peroxide was widely used in medicine. H2O2 stimulates natural killer (NK) cells, which attack cancer cells as they attempt to spread throughout the body. During flu season, if the kiddos feel like they’re getting sick, we lay them down on their side and put a few drops of hydrogen peroxide into their ear. We know that when H2O2 is taken into the body (orally or intravenously) the oxygen content of the blood and body tissues increases dramatically.

Light Therapy, Biological Clocks and The Relationship to Health, circadian rhythms, circannual rhythms, SAD, Seasonal Affective disorder, body clock Biological Clocks and The Relationship to Health We have shown that light levels influences the life in animals and humans immensely. Scientists have performed experiments to determine how animals will react if they are deprived of light. Of particular interest was to determine, whether they can perceive the seasons in the absence of light. The interesting thing they noticed was that, this biological clock was, at best, approximate. Just as animals rely on signals from the sun to keep their body clocks exact and to synchronize their activities, so humans need sufficient daylight to synchronize their circadian and circannual rhythms (See Rhythms and Body Clock for an explanation). There are other diseases that are influenced by the circadian rhythm disturbances.

Mainstream Medical Myths / Alternative Healing Pitfalls Staying healthy is hard enough without intentional disinformation. Basic science and logic can reveal the life-saving truths forbidden by our medical industrial complex and corporate media. It's hard to find anyone who does not believe in the Germ Theory of Disease or that butter will clog your arteries or that we are somehow defective and at the mercy of a genetic weakness. Sun Energy > Food/Water (+) Oxygen > Metabolism = Electrons (-) Oxidative Debt (Acidic metabolic wastes, Toxins/Metals, Emotional Stress, Inflammations) (+ or -) Electrolyte Mineral Levels, Emotions of Fear/Joy, Lifestyle Habits = Total Body Charge (Approximately 30-50 millivolts or pH 7.35 to 7.40 is Healthy Range) Natural healing can be powerfully effective if implemented holistically and quantitatively. The very idea of vaccination and antibiotics distracts from the thought of personal responsibility over immune fitness, to the point that a fearful public now holds anti-vaxxers responsible for their (in)security.

The Witch Hunt for “Alternative” Medicine Practitioners 3rd September 2016 By Ty Bollinger Guest writer for Wake Up World Old wives tales and recipes for remedies from your grandmother is woven into the fabric of most lives. A couple of generations ago, the average population didn’t seek out a doctor unless it was clear that it was a serious illness and had exhausted all efforts at handling the problem at home. “Alternative” Medicine is Not Wicked Before we begin, let’s look at the actual terms being used, shall we? Do you see how the phrase “he who defines the terms wins the argument” is true? Now, I am not asserting that modern medicine is bad. However, we’ve become blind to a very dangerous trend. To make matters worse, a growing majority of patients now ask for drugs by name. For more on this, please see: Licensed to Kill: Psychiatry, Big Pharma and the State-Sanctioned Drug Cartel.
