# 102 FrankenRice: Its on the way - Here it Comes

Thought I was kidding in my prior posts! Read my # 90, # 89,# 68, and the ones about soy beans.This insanity needs to stop immediately. Did send a protest on this, but I understand that March 30,2007, is the cut-off date to protest.

Dear Reader,
Here's a dish that's sure to appeal to consumers: Human Genes 'n' Rice!
Come on now - admit it - how many times have you sat down to a bowl of steaming rice and thought, "This would sure go great with some human genes!"
How many? Zero times? I'm with you all the way. In fact, I expect that just about nobody could warm up to the idea of eating a genetically modified (GM) plant that contains human genes.
Here's the good news: These plants aren't actually grown for human consumption.
Here's the bad news: These plants exist, and when the wind blows their seeds, there's no telling where they might go.
-------- Have your "golden tickets" ready ---------------------------
Earlier this month, the USDA gave Ventria Bioscience (a California biotech company) preliminary approval to plant more than 3,000 acres of rice engineered with human genes that produce proteins found in breast milk. But this rice won't be sold to consumers - the proteins will be extracted and used for a medication that treats children with diarrhea. And that's the whole point: Growing the proteins is more efficient and less costly than manufacturing synthetic versions.
In a recent NutraIngredients-USA article titled "GM: A Healthy Debate," Jess Halliday noted that using genetically modified crops to improve human health might be the "golden ticket" that will finally convince a wary public that tinkering with genes in our food supply is just fine after all. So far, the general public isn't convinced this tinkering is safe. Ms. Halliday describes our cautious attitude like this: "turning their noses up like petulant toddlers."
That's got to be a new low in condescension. Especially given the fact that just a few days later another NutraIngredients-USA article noted that a variety of GM corn had produced liver and kidney toxicity in rats.
If I turn up my nose at potential kidney and liver toxicity, am I behaving like a petulant toddler? I suppose I am if there's a GM crop that will treat kidney and liver failure.
----------------------- Show me ------------------------------------
If the final USDA approval goes through, Ventria will plant more 450 acres of their Human Genes 'n' Rice this spring. That planting will be done in Kansas, but definitely not Missouri. Why not Missouri?
Interesting story.
Ventria originally proposed to plant its crop in the Show Me State, but that didn't sit well with beer maker Anheuser-Busch, which happens to be the largest rice buyer in the U.S. Anheuser-Busch executives threatened to purchase all their rice outside Missouri if Ventria went forward with the planting, so Ventria took its strange rice to Kansas.
Now why would Anheuser-Busch execs draw a line in the Missouri dirt? Because they were concerned about human-gene rice contaminating the crops that provide rice for their beer. But a line in the dirt (such as the long line that separates Kansas and Missouri) won't stop a rice crop from wandering.
Long story short: You can't contain nature, and you can't keep a plant engineered with human genes neatly contained in a single field.
------------------- Just say "NO!" --------------------------------------------
As I mentioned above, Ventria's green light for planting their Human Genes 'n' Rice is preliminary. If enough people voice their concerns about this Frankenfood, the USDA may be persuaded to step back and tread more carefully before they allow human genes to be grown in a crop that's typically grown for food.
But here's the catch: The public comment period for this issue ends tomorrow. So if you'd like to voice your opposition to this human gene "experiment," the time to speak up is now.
You can get specific information about how to give the USDA a piece of your mind at Michele Cagan's HSI On the Spot blog, which you'll find at the link below. Just look for her March 21, 2007, posting, titled "Stop Rice Pharming!!"

101 Fries, Thighs & Lies: Why you might want to read this

While I have not , as yet, read the book, what is said in her write-up, regards fats, is right on target.
..................................................................

Nutritionist attacks the food pyramid as an outdated monument to marketing.
BY Nancy Maes
Special to the Tribune
( Q - section 13 - Sunday March 25,2007 )
Deborah Arneson had a rude awakening when she started counseling people on how to lose weight based on everything she had been taught about the food pyramid and realizedthey were gaining weight instead. The licensed clinical nutritionistchronicles her experience in
demystifying the misinformation about diets and details a more effective way to slim down in her book :'
Fries, Thighs, and Lies" ( ISBN 1591201942 at Amazon )
(Basic Health Publications,$14.95).
Arneson discovered the major flaw in her early advice when she toured the headquarters of the American Dietetic Association, which was asked by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to turn the four food groups into a well-balanced diet. The result was the 1992 food pyramid and then the 2005 MyPyramid."The ADA has a wall that is about 30 feet long and about 6 feet high that lists all the food vendors that support the association," Arneson recalled. "There can't be much truth in information when all these people are feeding the coffers of the ADA."She concluded that "the pyramid is not a safe place to find information for a diet. lf you eat the food-pyramid way, you will eventually look like a pyramid and be small on the top and large on the bottom with thunder thighs."So what's a self-respecting nutritionist to do? Arneson found the answer on a trip to a village in India. "I saw women in their 60s, 70s and80s who looked 20 to 30 years younger. Their cheeks were full, their eyes were shining bright, their hair was hardly gray and they were very limber," she recalled. She discovered they were simmering fish, lamb and chicken in sesame and coconut oil and eating avocados off the trees."They were eating a lot of fat, and the women were all lean, so when I got back to Chicago, instead of recommending 30 to 35 percent healthy fat a day, I recommended 50 percent, and the fat on my patients started melting away."Arneson's book includes the three pyramids for proteins, fats and carbohydrates divided into the good, the bad and the ugly that she developed. The "good" are reflected in the foods Arneson may eat on a typical day: a protein drink that includes a tablespoon of coconut oil and a tablespoon of Healthy Balance oil for breakfast; hummus and rice crackers for a mid-morning snack; lemon Parmesan organic chicken and teriyaki broccoli for lunch; a sliver of goat cheese and grapes in midafternoon; homemade chicken sausage with peas and green beans for dinner; half an avocado before bedtime; and plenty of water, which is not in the pyramid. But Arneson admits that when the waterpipes broke at her office, her pipes froze at home and she had a medical emergency in her family she went to McDonald's and had a small chocolate milkshake and fries. In self-defense she said, "There are not four food groups, there are two food groups. There are physical health foods to stay lean, but some-times you need mental-health foods to make you feel good."

# 100 CDC Finally Admits Vacines & Autism Link

CDC Finally Admits Autism is a Greater Danger to Your Children

A new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report, considered the most complete assessment of autism to date, has found that the number of children who have an autism disorder is significantly higher than had been previously thought, and could be as high as one out of every 150 children.
Earlier estimates judged the incidence of autism disorders to be 1 in 166 children. But those estimates were based on smaller studies and used different study methods.
These findings may add further fuel to the growing debate over thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative that was used in infant vaccines up until six years ago, and is still used in flu shots.
For the new report, researchers used data from a multiyear, multistate study of 8-year-olds who were identified as having an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). ASD includes autism, PDD-NOS (pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified) and Asperger's disorder.
These disorders are characterized by problems with language and communication, often accompanied by repetitive or unusual behaviors, and generally begin before age 3, although they may not be diagnosed until later.
Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report February 9, 2007
USA Today February 9, 2007

Dr. Mercola's Comment:
After this sobering report by the CDC, conventional medicine can't turn its collective backs on autism any more, as it has for a long, long time. The incidence of autism is even higher in some states than the national average; in New Jersey, more than one out of every 100 children suffers from an autism disorder.
Despite the evidence, however, CDC Director Julie Gerberding remains skeptical autism rates are really rising, citing "better studies" as a possible reason for the uptick -- although the results of each successive study are grimmer than the previous ones.
The most important number parents need to remember when it comes to vaccinating your children is 27.
Children were 27 times more likely to develop autism when given three vaccines containing thimerosal, the mercury-based vaccine preservative, and far less so when it was removed from them, according to studies posted here three years ago.
If you remain skeptical about the vaccine-autism link, I urge you to review a pair of interesting reports that go far toward explaining why the Amish haven't experienced autism like the rest of America.
On Vital Votes, reader Josh from Vista, California adds:
"It is sad that the government, the Rx companies and society for that matter cannot see how vaccines are one of the causes of [autism] ... .
"I know lots of families and friends that have chosen not to give vaccines to their kids (I live in CA so it is much easier as they have a philosophical exemption option) and their kids are fine. As well, I have one friend in particular that lives in [Massachusetts] that got their child vaccinated. Their child was a vibrant, loving and energetic expression of life, until the vaccinations. Now, she is autistic."At the same time, even though autism, vaccinations, etc are such an issue, I look at handicapped, autistic, mentally retarded children as higher evolved human beings that are here to teach us. Not us to teach them. That is just my belief!"

# 98 Liquid Candy Breakfast Fad

Liquid Candy Becoming the Preferred Breakfast Drink

Soft drinks are being consumed outside the home as part of breakfast at a rapidly increasing rate, the amount nearly doubling over the past 15 years. Over the same period, outside-the-home coffee consumption with breakfast has fallen nearly 25 percent.
A soft drink is currently ordered with a breakfast meal more than 15 percent of the time, compared to 7.9 percent of the time in 1990. Just under two-thirds of that 15 percent have a regular soda, and the rest order diet.
Between 1990 and the present, breakfast coffee orders have dropped from 48.7 percent to 38 percent.
Soda for breakfast has also become more common for those who eat the meal at home, rising from 0.5 percent in 1985 to 2.4 percent in 2006.
redOrbit.com January 15, 2007

Dr. Mercola's Comment:
Here's yet another reason soft drinks have become the leading source of calories for Americans and a major contributor to the obesity epidemic. The trends and the numbers are so striking, some business experts wonder why soft drinks giants like Coca-Cola even bother trying to compete with coffeehouse chains like Starbucks by adding a coffee-flavored line of beverages.
And if you think diet sodas are the answer, you should know that the artificial sugary chemicals they contain aren't doing your health any favors, either.
Just consider all the nasty things soft drinks do to harm your health in addition to obesity:
Damage your liver
Create mental health problems
Expose your body to toxic levels of benzene
Increase the risk of nearly every chronic disease known to man by raising your insulin levels
Increase your rate of aging
Fortunately, one of the best ways to optimize your health -- making the switch to clean fresh water -- is also one of the easiest. If you have trouble breaking this health-harming habit, consider learning Turbo Tapping, a variation of the effective Emotional Freedom Technique.
Folks, there just simply isn't any excuse for drinking soda, ever. If you are drinking soda this is one of the easiest steps you can IMMEDIATELY take toward moving yourself in the direction of health and wellness. This one simple measure will really accelerate your path toward healing.
After all if you are going to have sugar there are simply so many better ways to consume it than drinking it.
And if you are drinking diet soda you probably haven't watched my videos on them, or are among the millions who sincerely desire to break their diet soda addiction, but have been unsuccessful after repeated attempts. It is vital that you watch these videos and consider the free resource Turbo Tapping.
On Vital Votes, reader Marianne from Belleville, Michigan adds:
"I can believe it. I was addicted to diet pepsi for years. Even while consuming a whole foods diet otherwise, it took me a long time to give it up. I was convinced without it I would 'have' to eat sugar. I actually do not crave sugar as much now.
"I think the aspartame itself is very addictive. At least it was for me. The withdrawal is just as hard as coming off sugar. I remember, I just gave it up just a month ago! I think this is the fifth or sixth time I have sworn off aspartame, but it is the most successful I have ever been.
"I just want to encourage those who think they can't give it up, you really can. Like any other addiction (and I've had my share) you have to keep quitting."

# 97 Latest - Spicy - Cancer Fighter

One of my long time used herbs, is " Cayenne". Use of "hot" peppers goes back many years with me. I also carry "red pepper" as I call it, with me at all times, for emergency uses. Have two copies of Dr John Christophers' book, "School Of Natural Healing". ( enter 1879436019 in Amazon search to order it ) Needed the second copy as my first copy was starting to show its age. Many other herbs are covered in the book, not only Cayenne, and how to use them. A top notch source book on herbs and health.

More Revelations About The Latest Spicy Cancer Fighter

Scientists have discovered the secret behind the ability of spicy foods to kill cancer cells. Capsaicin, which is found in jalapeno peppers, attacks the mitochondria of cancerous cells.
Vanilloids, a family of molecules that includes capsaicin, bind to mitochondrial proteins in cancer cells to trigger apoptosis (programmed cell death), without causing harm to healthy cells. The biochemistry of cancer cell mitochondria is significantly different from that of normal cells.
To determine this, capsaicin was tested on cultures of human lung and pancreatic cancer cells.
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications January 2, 2007
BBC News January 9, 2007

Dr. Mercola's Comment:
The list of foods that exhibit medicinal properties is extensive. Certain foods, such as garlic, have a long and storied history of use for a variety of ailments. Even the tasty blueberry has turned out to be one of the healthier foods nature has to offer.
The capsaicin found in red chili peppers and other spicy foods is another well-known food component with healing properties. While its most common use has been as a component in topical creams for joint pain, it may also be capable of helping to lower insulin levels. But the good news has just kept on coming regarding the potential of capsaicin as a natural treatment for such severe illnesses as type 1 diabetes and cancer.
The lead researcher on this latest study is so sure of the benefits that he believes using capsaicin this way has uncovered, perhaps, a universal "Achilles heel" for all cancers.
And, considering capsaicin and other vanilloids are common in the average diet, researchers believe it may be possible that a diet richer in spicy foods could be prescribed one day for cancer patients or those at risk.
Just more evidence -- if you really needed any more of it -- that the foods you eat greatly influence your health.
On Vital Votes, Ray from Bloomington, Indiana adds:
"Ever hear of the late Dr John Christopher, master herbalist? I heard him speak, about 20 years ago, about the miracle cures available from a host of herbs/spices. His absolute #1 'go-to' herb is/was cayenne pepper, one of the hottest. Says he stopped a heart attack dead in its tracks with it. Used it to stop bleeding also. "There are many other wonder herbs as well: echinacea, garlic, olive leaf extract, oil of oregano (extremely potent antimicrobial), ginger root, cilantro, parsley, lobelia and so many more."

# 96 Dogs Sniffing To Detect Cancer

The Erickson Tribune.
Dogs trained in cancer-sniffing. Smell has often been a warning sign of illness: Hippocrates-the father of modern medicine-described the fruity odor of diabetes in the breath.Now scientists are using dogs' enhanced sense of smell test for various types of cancer. Dogs are being tested for their ability to detect melanoma on the skin, breast cancer in breath, and prostate cancer in urine. In one trial, British scientists trained dogs to sniff for bladder cancer in 54 samples of human urine. They were about 41% accurate: not a very high accuracy rate, but high enough to have experts interested. One of the main reasons for the interest is to use dogs as cancer detectors in poor countries, where CT scans and even Pap smears are unavailable.

# 95 DNA Database Open To Genealogists and The Public

DNA database open to the public. Amateur genealogists can use it to trace their ancestry for free. A major DNA database is opening its doors to amateur genealogists. People who want to use DNA to trace their maternal ancestors will be able to turn to the Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation of Salt Lake City, with its database of more than 5000 samples of mitochondrial DNA. Unlike Y-chromosome DNA, which is inherited by sons from their fathers, mitochondrial DNA is passed from mothers to both male and female children. So mitochondrial DNA is especially valuable to women, who have no other direct method to search their family histories through their genes.
The foundation is the creation of Utah philanthropist James Levoy Sorenson.
One day in the future, I'd like to run a check on my ancestors. I would like to know more of the family, from my mother's side. My father's side is pretty well documented, but I may even check his out also.

# 93 FDA - Cancer and Vitamin C Tests ( updated 1-19-07 )

The good, the bad and the fake. Or perhaps I should say the manipulated. In the Chicago Tribune, January 1 1, 2007, an article stated:
"FDA OKs trial on vitamin C for Cancer" .
Based on my type of research, many prior cancer trials were highly manipulated, to prevent favorable results with using alternative methods for oncologic medical care. The one ray of hope here, is the company doing the trials. That company is "Cancer Treatment Centers of America". CTCA is a privately held for-profit company, with much to gain, if successful. "Cancer Treatment Centers' facilities differ from most cancer care centers in that they provide traditional inpatient and outpatient chemotherapy and surgical care, as well as non-traditional services such as acupuncture, massage and nutrition therapies." I must admit that I have not checked out this company. For the sake of many cancer patients, I hope these cancer "trials" are successful. What this company will be doing, is, "studying the potential of intravenous vitamin C as a cancer treatment". From what I have read, this is already an "underground successful" protocol in "alternative medicine". The only down side of the story is, who will be receiving this trial protocol, and I quote "only patients who have exhausted all other conventional treatment options are eligible to receive the therapy". From other research reading, and as I see it, and to put it more bluntly, if the orthodox medical profession has given up hope for you, then and only then, do you qualify for this type of trial protocol. That is sad. The only mitigating factor here, would be, for a while, an improved quality of remaining life for these patients. Statistically speaking, and without hard numbers to back it up, only 20% will actually overcome their cancer, under these harsh conditions. Even this is a step forward, as, these, first FDA approved trial protocols, legitimately conducted, by a private company, will prove, to be beneficial in the long run.The FDA confirmed Cancer Treatment Centers' investigational new drug application, but would not comment further.Some more blunt talk here, don't give up hope, there are many protocols available that can be beneficial. These are mentioned in other posts, on this blog, that you might want to check out.From what I have read, ones emotional level, is of the utmost importance when fighting any major illness. For this, you might want to check out the postings, about EFT, on this blog.
I managed to loose the source for the following , it was to be a companion article to the above. It was to relate the costs currently involved for cancer treatment. There were no figures shown for the vitamin C trials mentioned above, that would eventually reach the user. But the info I misplaced, showed that Avastin sales would reach SEVEN BILLION dollars a year ,by the year 2009. One years supply of Avastin for cancer treatment, is $100,000.00, Depending on ones insurance , their cost would range from $10,000 to $20,000 a year. What I found with research, was that the ones life span could be extended by three to six months with the new therapy! With use of the Vitamin C therapy, costs would not even get near the amounts shown for Avastin, and more importantly, could actually rid one of the cancer, without taking ones life. From what I read, if a tumor is reduced in size with conventional cancer treatment, ( even if the patient died ) it is considered a success! What ones does not get told is that tumors are actually 80 % to 90% normal, but rapidly growing cells, and the remaining 10% to 20% of the cells cancerous. From what I've have further read, is that chemo and radiation, are very effective in also destroying normal cells. So as I see it, if all this is true, "many non-cancerous cells" are destroyed, with only a small percentage of the "cancerous cells' being destroyed. Naturally the tumor would be reduced under these conditions. Check it out, in the book "Cancer- Step Outside The Box", if you are coping with a cancer condition.

# 92 My Book Sources For Psychic and Health Reading

My book reading is quite varied. Do some what go with the mindwindow, I'm looking through, for a given interest cycle.There is a huge amount of rehashed material published, that gives me pause. So I try to get as far back as possible, to an original version of what I'm researching / looking for. Over the course of years in doing so, have found certain sources that became a good starting point. Besides Amazon, I frequently use these:

http://www.woodlandpublishing.com/page/home

http://www.healthresearchbooks.com/

http://arebookstore.com/Default.asp?

http://www.redwingbooks.com/

Health Research Books goes back a long time with me, dating back to the original owners. They make copies of many titles,that are out of print, many of which I have. Worth your while to check them out. The A.R.E. , is also an old time source, and is set up around Edgar Cayce's material. You will find a title atWoodland Publishing, called "The Ultimate Healing System" by Donald Lepore, a worthwhile addition to have. The books that Redwing Book Company lists, will blow you away with the scope of listings there. Was the only source for some titles I needed.


An added bonus here from J.J..
My above listings were from much earlier days.

# 91 Breast Cancer and Bras

In a book entitled "Dressed to Kill: The Link Between Breast Cancer and Bras.", by Sidney Singer, and Soma Grismaijer, some interesting, but startling statistics are shown.
----------Amazon shows the book as 1930858051---------------------------

Women wearing a bra 24 hours a day had a 3 in 4 chance of developing breast cancer.

Women wearing their bras from more than 12 hours a day, but not to bed, had a 1 in 7 chance of developing breast cancer.

Women wearing bras less than 12 hours a day had a 1 in 152 chance of developing breast cancer.

Women who rarely or never wore bras, had a 1 in 168 chance of developing breast cancer.

# 90 FrankenFoods In Your Future ! New Wave of Illness !

FrankinHumans and FrankenFoods. Getting to be quite the mixture. New humans, and new foods are no longer in the future. And as I see it, the new human, (if the current insanity continues) is about three generations away. I'm not predicting doom and gloom, but a new wave of illnesses, that will be shocking. The Franken foods are already here, and are contributing to what I call the FrankinHumans that are about three generations away. Go ahead, laugh, shake your head, but it is happening. Items in our food chain are stripped of valuable nutrients that can insure health, and are replaced with cheap substitutes that contribute to a lack of good health. Apparently, there are not enough people suffering from a lack of good health. So some companies with concerns for the bottom line, are introducing new products for you, that are far from their original state. Keep in mind now, that the closer to its original state (use common sense here) a food product is, the healthier it is for you. People are urged to read the label, to see what the ingredients are. And here is where the problem commences. Our alphabet government agencies, do not want us to know what is in our food, in the form of genetically modified organisms (GMO). So instead of labeling our food products with a GMO label to help you choose, "what is good for you", they simply say "people won't buy, if they see the label "GMO". The same applies with "cloned"meat. I think the choice should be ours to make. Other posts have information on how to regain that right.

Here is an article of interest:
Dear Reader, "I do not want to eat cloned animals!" That's the title of a petition I received in my e-mail in-box last week. The first thing I thought was: I do not want to eat cloned animals here, I do not want to eat cloned animals there, I do not want to eat cloned animals ANY where! In fact, you and I and most everyone else will probably never eat meat or drink milk that comes directly from a cloned animal. But that doesn't mean there's no cause for concern. ------------------------------------------- Getting satisfaction ------------------------------------------- When it comes to farming, I'm not quite the Eva Gabor character in Green Acres, but I'm close to that end of the farming spectrum. What I don't know about animal husbandry is a lot. So when it was recently announced that FDA experts decided it's safe to eat food produced by cloned animals, I couldn't help but wonder why a farmer would go to the trouble and expense of cloning when animals have done a pretty good job of the reproductive thing for eons. Turns out I was right about the expense - a single cloning procedure can cost as much as $170,000. And I was also right about the reproductive abilities of animals - cloning isn't meant to take the place of doing what comes naturally. Because cloning is for rock stars. The whole point of cloning a farm animal is to produce what the Associated Press (AP) calls a "rock star" breeder. Once you've determined that an animal is a naturally prodigious breeder that tends to produce offspring that are healthy, tender, and delicious, if you clone that animal a few times you'll have a stable of breeders that will live the life of Mick Jagger, but without the number one hits and the grueling tour schedule. And at a cost of $170,000 per carbon copy, you can be sure that none of these animals will end up on the dining room table. But most of their offspring will. So the key question is: Are future generations spawned by rock star breeders safe to eat? The FDA says yes. But once again we're relying on the best guess of experts. Only after years of public consumption will we be able to say with certainty that there's no subtle wrinkle hidden in the DNA that will do us harm. Experts once told us that cigarettes soothed the throat. How'd that work out? ------------------------------------------- Choices made difficult ------------------------------------------- When this news about the FDA seal of approval for cloning hit the media, one television commentator dismissed fears by pointing out that if you don't want to eat cloned animals, just choose meat from non-clone sources. Simple! Just one problem: The FDA will not require special labeling for milk or meat products that come from cloned livestock, according to a National Geographic report. After all, FDA experts have already determined it will be safe to eat. So why bother with a label? This isn't really a surprise, of course. The FDA allows meat products to be treated with carbon monoxide (to improve color) without any special labeling. And there's no point in looking for a label note that lets you know your chops have come from animals that were given growth hormones and antibiotics. You can assume that's the norm, unless you're fortunate enough to get your meat products fresh from a local farmer. And speaking of hormones, one of the complaints about meat from cloned animals is that the cloning process requires higher levels of hormones. That's according to representatives for the Center for Food Safety, who also told National Geographic that the FDA has not addressed the fact that cloning tends to prompt higher rates of birth defects and disease among cloned animals. We're still several years away from the day when products from cloned animals reach grocery shelves. So there's plenty of time to ask hard questions and share awareness of potential problems.

In some cases, patients respond quite favorably to high doses of the vitamin.

The response, however, can be remarkable, though it can take as much as 30,000 milligrams (30 grams) of B-3 in difficult cases. "Dr. Abram Hoffer, MD, PhD, is the master of this, and has been since the 1950's. He discovered that Canadian POW's from WWII (who were held in the 'black hole of Calcutta') all came back with mental problems, and all had what to him looked like symptoms of pellagra (B-3 deficiency). He theorized that their abominable diet during the war ruined an enzyme that utilized B-3, mandating (now) far higher doses to get the same effect that a few mg would do in a normal person. "Each POW became normal, but could not discontinue the treatment. They were 'successfully treated,' but not 'cured.' "Hoffer later treated my sister, a schizophrenic who had been written off and permanently institutionalized. My parents were told she'd never be a useful, productive member of society. She ended up graduating law school and passing the bar. "Hoffer found that the hallucinations disappeared when the patient was properly treated. However, long-term schizophrenics tend to acclimate to their hallucinatory world, and then need counseling to acquaint them with the new 'normal' (which to them is abnormal, though it now agrees with our perceptions)." As I mentioned in last week's e-Alert, Dr. Hoffer's book "Vitamin B-3 and Schizophrenia: Discovery, Recovery, Controversy" can be found on amazon.com. To Your Good Health, Jenny Thompson

I went to the site and viewed the movie about GMO & GMF. What I saw, falls into a category of TOTAL INSANITY. What you see is a wake up call readers. The outcome presented in the video, if taken to the extreme is saying: Your children and pets, have eaten our GMO products, and according to the patent laws, and detection of "our patented products" through blood tests, in your children and pets, they are now "our property, unless you pay us a royalty".

How Monsanto Manipulates the System to Poison Your Health

Sir Richard Doll was a British cancer specialist who died last year. He was noted for making the connection between smoking and lung cancer. But for years,20 he was being paid as a consultant by Monsanto, a fact not revealed in his reports.
Sir Richard Doll told a commission investigating Monsanto's Agent Orange that there was no evidence that the chemical increased risks of cancer and genetic defects. He did not mention that he was being paid $1,500 a day by Monsanto at the time.
Monsanto has used similar paid shills and other techniques to propagandize the safety of genetically modified food, aspartame, and other products, including wrecking the careers of scientists who discover problems with their products.
When Dr. Arpad Pusztai conducted studies showing that rats fed on certain GM potatoes had suffered stunted growth and damage to the immune system, liver, and heart, he was suspended from his job, ordered to hand over all his data, and threatened with legal action if he spoke to anyone on the subject.
Can You Really Trust Monsanto? -- How They Corrupted Science

Dr. Mercola's Comment:
The behind-the-scenes business tactics used by Monsanto to poison our foods with genetically modified (GM) replacements make the multi-national drug companies look like Mother Teresa. This frightening story from David Icke.com describes one of the primary strategies behind Monsanto's successful business practices:
Confusing the argument against GM foods, for example, by peppering the debate with "science-speak" to muddy any clear representation of the facts before the hazards are ever realized.
Part and parcel of this strategy and Monsanto's success has been finding "independent" scientists willing to sell the company line, like the late Sir Richard Doll, who was paid handsomely to defend such monstrosities as Agent Orange.
But if, like Dr. Arpad Pusztai, you were on the wrong side of the debate, you would find your career in a shambles thanks to Monsanto's multi-national influence.
Above all, don't be confused about the global GM blight that taints some 70 percent of the processed foods you find at your corner grocery store. Before you go shop for foods again, do your homework by reviewing my tips for staying clear of GM foods.
And I urge you to watch the video The Future of Food. This in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind genetically modified foods is one of the best documentaries I have ever viewed. It will help you understand the very real threat that ALL future generations face as a result of genetic engineering.
On Vital Votes, reader Moira from Alabama outlines the roots of the problem:
"The problem is that corporations like Monsanto have too much money!! The corporate form of business is not beneficial to society. It allows for the accumulation of too much money without accountability. This money buys power and influence. Individuals can't have the same influence on our world (unless very united) as corporations.
"There is no democracy with corporations.
"Furthermore, I think it is time we citizens vote on the issues ourselves without having a 'representative' to deal with. This would eliminate corporate influence. The technology is there which would make this possible.
"Because of corporations we don't have clean air, water or food. These should be a 'given.' The Senator from my state always votes for big business against the environment, etc. I would think if individuals could vote on issues themselves, the environment, etc. would stand a better chance of surviving."

# 88 Angels Don't Play This HAARP

Would be interesting to have health statistics, that date from the inception of programs of this nature. Hope some one does pick up on doing so. A side effect of programs of this nature, as I see it, but unable to verify, is that that all living matter, is being, slowly, genetically altered, by these processes. The effect, of the mentioned "side effect", is what you are seeing and reading about everyday. Mostly, all negative things, about health and violence throughout the world.Think and argue this all you want, but do give it deep thought.

Angels Don't Play This HAARP

This interesting Google video describes a massive radio-transmitter in Alaska operated by the Department of Defense known as the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP). In this video, you will visit the installation and hear government officials explain how it can be used as a powerful weapon directed against any point on the globe, how it can be used for modifying the weather, and how safe and wonderful it is.
But you will also hear from experts -- including scientists who designed the system -- that it can be used to alter human brainwaves to cause whole populations to become confused, passive, or ill.

Dr. Mercola's Comment:
In the book Trust Us We're Experts, the authors pull together some compelling data describing the science of creating public opinion in America. They trace modern public influence back to the early part of the last century, highlighting the work of guys like Edward L. Bernays, the Father of Spin. Bernays took the ideas of his famous uncle Sigmund Freud himself, and applied them to the emerging science of mass persuasion.
It's important not to unthinkingly trust what you hear, whether the information comes from the government, from a corporation, or from another source.
Do your own research, listen to all sides, and come to your own conclusions.
The U.S. government has certainly covered up information throughout history, including the dangers of mercury in vaccines and the risks of aspartame. But does that mean the information presented in this video is all true? Not necessarily. If you're concerned about this issue, look for more sources of information, and get the full story.
You should take control of your own mind, just as you should take control of your own health.
On Vital Votes, Dr. Matthew Loop from Lilburn, Georgia is worried by the implications of HAARP:
"As quantum physics and electromagnetic science have confirmed, HAARP makes it possible to control the human brain, modify the weather, and perform many other 'Star Wars' tasks! This is pretty frightening if you are aware of all the propaganda that is spread from Big Brother on a regular basis. We are told, in a similar fashion like the children that were sprayed with DDT years ago, that this technology is harmless. As a student of science, I'm not convinced!"
However, Mac from Coventry, Connecticut is not convinced:
"I don't know why HAARP is getting all this attention. Just a cursory look at the information available turns up many ionospheric heaters around the world, some just as powerful as HAARP ... I suspect a combination of Alaskans having an issue with this site operating for local reasons, then the 'Area 51 trilateral commission' fans join in, and Hollywood money and media attention makes it a powerful story. But as far as I can tell that's just what it is: a story."

# 87 "One Answer To Cancer" a book review

Also available at Amazon.
Extracted from One Answer to Cancer By Dr. William Donald Kelley, D.D.S., M.S.

*Chapter 1*
What is Cancer?
Cancer is a term used to classify a fast growing malignant tumor, which, if allowed to grow unchecked, will cause death.
Many clinicians have the mistaken belief that cancer is complex; a number of different diseases, each having its own cause. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Most doctors, even the research scientists, suppose such things as viruses, X-rays, cigarette smoking, chemicals, sunlight, trauma, etc. cause cancer. These, sometimes, are an indirect cause.
The Direct Cause of Cancer is The Changing of an Ectopic Germ Cell into an Ectopic Trophoblast Cell
The direct cause of cancer, according to our research, is the changing of an ectopic germ cell into an ectopic trophoblast cell. An excess of female sex hormones brings about this change. Both men and women have male and female sex hormones. When this delicate male-female sex hormone balance is upset, cancer may start.
Let me explain this a little further. In the human life cycle, the male sperm unites with the female egg. Now if this fertilized egg would grow directly into a new baby, we would have no cancer or cancer problems, but nature does not act so simply and directly, for if she did, the newly formed embryo (baby) would fall out of the uterus. Therefore, nature had to develop some way to attach the new embryo to the wall of the uterus and some way to nourish (feed) it.
After the sperm in the fallopian tube of the m fertilizes the egg the fertilized egg gives rise to three basic kinds of cells:
Primitive germ cells
Normal body or somatic cells
Trophoblast cells
By the third day the fertilized egg has fallen into the uterus. During those three days and for many days thereafter, the trophoblast cells (cancer cells) are growing very rapidly and surround the two types of cells (primitive germ cells, and normal body or somatic cells).
The new baby will fall out of the uterus unless something happens fast, and happen it does. The trophoblast cells metastasize (as cancer does) to the wall of the uterus. Now the baby cannot fall out of the m’s uterus, but needs nourishment. The trophoblast cells (cancer cells) continue to grow rapidly and form the placenta. Now with a good food supply and no danger of falling out of the m, the baby (embryo) can continue to grow, safe and sound, until birth.
The placental trophoblast tissue (cancer mass) continues to grow until about the seventh week when the baby’s pancreas develops.
The baby’s pancreatic enzyme production along with the m’s pancreatic enzyme production stops the growth of the placental trophoblastic tissue.
As the new embryo (baby) is being formed from the normal body or somatic cells, the primitive germ cells (pre-placenta cells) are multiplying. In a few days, when the embryo (baby) develops to the proper stage, the primitive germ cells stop multiplying and begin to migrate to the gonads (ovaries or testes).
There are about three billion of these primitive germ cells that fatigue and never have the vital force necessary to reach the gonads. This means that there are two germ cells for every area the size of a pinhead dispersed throughout your body. Any one of these germ cells is a potential cancer. That is why cancer can form in any part of the body. All that is needed to create cancer in our body is a deficiency of pancreatic enzymes, an imbalance of sex hormones and the embryonic destiny of a basic germ cell to form a placenta in preparation for the creation of a baby. The imbalance of sex hormones can take place at any time, but usually it occurs between 45 and 60 years of age.
When all is said and done, cancer is a normal growth of tissue (a placenta) due to the development of a basic germ cell in the wrong place (outside of the uterus). Sometimes this placenta also has a "baby" or begins a tumor inside of it much like a normal pregnancy - only it is in the wrong place. (When dissecting tumors Pathologists often find partially formed teeth, toenails and types of tissue, such as lung tissue, within the tumors.)
Malignancy, therefore, is never normal (somatic) tissue gone into wild proliferation, but a normal primitive germ cell growing normally in the wrong place.
Physiology of Cancer
I would like to share with you my concept of the physiology of cancer. In order for you to comprehend my concept let me give you a little background by reviewing with you Pellagra and Diabetes.
Pellagra Can Be Controlled WithA Diet Containing B Vitamins
For years patients were placed in insane asylums because they had the simple deficiency disease called Pellagra. In 1916 Dr. Joseph Goldberger found that diet could prevent this condition, but it was not until the 1940’s that it was discovered that Pellegra was nothing more than a simple B vitamin deficiency. Now no knowledgeable physician would commit such a patient, but rather give him B vitamins.
What is Pellagra? It is a symptom of a general systemic condition. For centuries only the symptoms were treated - now we know better.
Diabetes Can Be Controlled ByDiet, Insulin, or a Combination of Both
What is diabetes? It is nothing more than a symptom. It is a symptom that tells us that our systemic carbohydrate (sugar) metabolism is not functioning properly. Before insulin the great physicians stood by and wrung their hands helplessly.
Before the discovery of insulin by professor Ernest L. Scott in 1911 and until the early 1930’s, when a person was diagnosed as having diabetes, they would often ask the doctor if their condition could be helped or made worse by what they were eating and should they change their diet in any way? The doctor would tell them: "Oh no, diet doesn’t make any difference - eat anything you want, you aren’t going to live much longer anyway, so live it up and eat whatever you want." Doctors couldn’t connect the diet and diabetes. Even lay people in those days figured out that if you ate a lot of leafy green vegetables and reduced the amount of sugar you took in, you survived longer and did well - at least better than the person who didn’t watch his diet.
And so it was that after the development of insulin, doctors figured out that there is a factor in diet. In the early 1920s there weren’t very good analytical facilities available. But the doctors empirically found that the people who ate green leafy vegetables, and a few foods, survived diabetes much better and the sugar count in their urine was much better. They had a saying in the medical community at that time that leafy, green vegetables contained "natural insulin." It wasn’t actually the truth, but they became aware of the fact that including these vegetables in the diet did play a role and they were trying to explain it.
We’re in the same situation now with cancer. Someday, in the near future, it will dawn on the medical community that diet does make quite a difference in people with cancer, and greatly affects health in general. It can’t happen too soon. When it does, a lot of lives will be saved and a lot of lives will be lived more healthfully.
Eighty-Six Percent of All Cancers Could Be Controlled and/or Prevented By Diet and Pancreatic Enzymes
At least 86% of all cancer conditions could be adequately treated and/or prevented by diet and pancreatic enzymes.
Cancer is a symptom of inadequate and deficient protein metabolism. The real problem is protein metabolism, not cancer. Cancer is only a symptom telling those who would listen that their protein metabolism is in very serious trouble. Surgery, radiation and chemapy only treat the symptoms of cancer.
One hundred years ago Dr. John Beard at the University of Edinburgh discovered that the body’s primary mechanism for destroying cancer is contained in pancreatin, a secretion from the pancreas that includes enzymes for digesting protein (among things). Enzymes digest or liquefy foods for absorption by the body. Dr. Beard presented pictures in his books and papers to show recoveries using pancreatin. This was an unprecedented approach to treating the symptoms of cancer - a direct attack on the malignancy with a substance that did not have toxic side effects on the functions of the body.
Dr. Howard Beard (no relation) of Fort Worth, Texas has contributed considerably to the understanding and use of pancreatic enzymes in the treatment of cancer. He and researchers indicated that where cancer is concerned trypsin and particularly chymotrypsin are the important enzymes in pancreatin. Dr. Beard also recommended a nutritional program and things, as stated in his book: A New Approach to Cancer, Rheumatic, and Heart Diseases.
Cancer Compared to Diabetes
Diabetes is a disorder of carbohydrate metabolism due to inadequate production or utilization of insulin. Cancer is a disorder of protein metabolism due to inadequate production or utilization of protein digesting enzymes.
Insulin is produced in the pancreas. Protein digesting enzymes are produced in the pancreas.
A neurological process controls insulin production. A neurological process controls enzyme production.
Diabetes can often be controlled by diet alone. Cancer can often be controlled by diet alone.
Diabetes can almost always be controlled by the proper dosage of insulin. Cancer can almost always be controlled by proper dosage of protein digesting enzymes.
A diabetic patient can live a long useful life and never die as the result of diabetes. A cancer patient can live a long and useful life and never die as the result of cancer.
A diabetic patient must control his diabetes the rest of his life by diet or medication or a combination of both. A Cancer patient must control his cancer the rest of his life by diet and protein digesting enzymes.
The diabetic patient and the cancer patient alike must seek professional help to determine and regulate the condition, but it is up to the individual to administer to himself the proper diet and missing medication and/or supplements.
The Four Laws of Cancer
You cannot have cancer unless three factors are present.
These three factors are:
The presence of an ectopic germ cell
The stimulating presence of the female sex hormones
A deficiency of active pancreatic enzymes
First Law:
The Body Fails to Produce an Adequate Amount of Active Pancreatic Enzymes for One of Three Reasons:
83% - Overworking the pancreas by the intake of too much protein
10% - Neurological injury to pancreatic enzyme production
7% - Malfunction of body chemistry inactivating the enzymes
Second Law:
Protein Is Gradually Sapped from Muscles
Our research indicates that in 93% of all cancer cases the development of cancer is gradual. The average cancer patient has had cancer 39 months before it is clinically diagnosed. The important factor here is not that it is slow growing, but rather what happens to the body during this growth time - the body must have protein to live, but during this 39 months the body could not get enough protein from its food supply. Therefore, to keep the blood protein at a minimal level to sustain life, the body very gradually saps or destroys the muscles of the body.
Third Law:
Damaged Tissue and Female Hormones at the Site of a Latent, Misplaced Ectopic Germ Cell Set the Scene for Cancer
At this point the conditions are ripe for the symptom cancer to develop. All that is needed is something to stimulate the female sex hormone formation at the site of a misplaced ectopic germ cell. This is most often done by scar formation caused by a blow, a bruise, a drop of tar in the lung, a sun burn, an overdose of X-ray, or anything else that can cause a normal scar formation procedure to take place in the body - at the site of a latent ectopic germ cell. This is normal wear and tear of the body, which happens to each of us every day; it is only when our protein metabolism is deficient that the symptom cancer develops.
Now the ectopic germ cell mistakenly thinks it is time to have a baby and starts growing a placenta (cancer) in preparation for a baby that never develops. The only trouble is, without proper amounts of pancreatic enzymes circulating in our bloodstream to dissolve this abnormal placenta, it keeps growing and does not stop. When the patient finally consults the physician the condition of cancer is announced and surgery, radiation and chemapy are recommended.
Fourth Law:
For Cancer To Be Cured There Must Be A Positive Change In The Physiology Of The Patient
If nothing changes in the physiology of the patient, the cancer grows until it destroys the body. If something positive changes in the physiology of the patient one of two things can happen:
One person with cancer lasts a long time while an person with the same type of cancer goes rapidly - and, before now, no one knew why.
The right combination of circumstances occurs, and the cancer is dissolved or "cured."
This book answers the question: "What is the right combination of circumstances?"
Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program
"Metabolic" pertains to metabolism: The chemical and physical processes continuously going on in living organisms and cells, comprising those by which assimilated food is built up (anabolism) into protoplasm and those by which protoplasm is used and broken down (catabolism) into simpler substances or waste matter, with the release of energy for all vital processes.
The person who has the metabolic malfunction should be addressed, not the disease that has the person. We call our system of addressing cancer "Metabolic" because the total person and all of his chemical and physical processes must be considered, and new habits of health developed in order to obtain a reasonable state of health.
We advise a very comprehensive program. It is extremely effective and inexpensive when compared to surgery, radiation and chemapy. Those who are willing to faithfully and tediously follow it will be successful. Those who follow it in part or haphazardly will be completely unsuccessful.
Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program is based on the best scientific knowledge available and has been condensed to a simple well-balanced system. Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program can be compared to a fine watch; each part must be there and be working properly or it does not work at all. Each step of Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program must be followed exactly or there will not be any relief of the symptoms.
The Five Steps of Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program:
Metabolic Supplementation (Chapter III)
Detoxification Of The Body (Chapter IV)
Adequate, Proper, Well-Balanced Diet (Chapter V)
Neurological Stimulation (Chapter VI)
Spiritual Attitude (Chapter VII)
Step one, halting or stopping the malignant growth with the use of supplemental metabolic nutrition, is relatively simple. The growth is usually stopped from within 3 hours to 12 days of metabolic nutritional supplementation, depending upon the amount and method of administration. This is usually noted by a sharp elevation of body temperature lasting about 3 days.
The clinical problem in treating a cancer patient is step two, clearing the body of accumulated toxins. This takes from 3 weeks to 12 months, depending upon the location and mass (amount) of growth. Many cancer patients have had their tumors successfully treated only to die of toxic poisons as the mass is dissolved and excreted from the body - in a case such as this the clinician treated the disease and not the patient, or failed to treat "metabolically."
We find that the rate of recovery is subject to an law - that of blood supply. If the rate of blood supply to an area is great, recovery is fast. If the blood supply to an area is inadequate, recovery is very slow. Thus, we find those with leukemia respond quickly, while those with bone afflictions have a much slower response. We have also noted that in tumors of large diameter (three or more inches) the outside diameter is quickly dissolved, but the interior, where there is a lack of blood supply, often takes several months to dissolve. This is a very wonderful thing: the body has time to detoxify and the death rate from toxemia is greatly reduced.
The prognosis for a cancer patient is very good when the liver, kidney, and lung functions are at least 50% of normal, and an optimistic spiritual attitude is maintained. Unfortunately, we have found many people who have lost hope, or their next of kin have lost hope, to the degree they were resigned to death and refused to try our Cancer Cure Program.
Metabolic Cancer Defense
There are only two Physicians - the Almighty and your own body
The pancreas is a complex organ and has many functions and purposes. We will briefly mention three here:
Carbohydrate (Sugar) Metabolism.
If this pancreatic function fails, the resulting disease process is what we call diabetes.
B. Production of Digestive Enzymes:
Amylase, which digests starches, glycogen and carbohydrates.
Lipase, which digests fats.
Protease, which digests proteins. If this pancreatic function fails, the resulting disease process is called:
Cystic Fibrosis (usually in children) and/or;
Malnutrition, starvation, cachexia, wasting, or emaciation (usually in adults).
C. To Digest or Cannibalize:
The intercellular metabolic waste and toxic metabolic materials.
The intracellular waste products and dead or dysfunctional normal cells.
The normal dormant pre-placenta cells as they become cancer cells.
When this pancreatic function fails we have the resulting disease process we call cancer.
Metabolic Ignorance
There are many causes for the failure of our pancreatic metabolic function. Often more than one cause exists simultaneously within the cancer patient. Listed below are some of these and all must be considered as possible or ruled out as non-causative in each cancer patient:
The pancreas fails to produce an adequate quantity of enzymes.
We take into our bodies such large quantities of foods, which require pancreatic enzymes for their digestion, that there are no enzymes available for cancer digestion.
Diet: Incorrect type, amount, and timing of nutritional intake.
Nutritional Components are not available (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, etc.) that are necessary for normal metabolism within the pancreas.
We may fail to take into our diet enough minerals, which are essential to release the enzymes into activity.
We may produce enough enzymes but we fail to take into our diet enough coenzymes (vitamins) to make the enzymes work.
Failure of the Small Intestine to make adequate pancreatic activators.
Obstruction of pancreatic secretion flow.
Often we produce enough enzymes, but the blood supply to a cancer area is so poor the enzymes we produce are not carried to the area.
Proper pH Balance (acid/alkaline balance) within the intestinal tract and/or within the cancer tumor mass.
Infection: Bacterial or viral.
Chemical Poisons within the patient’s body from the environment, food chain, drugs, metabolic wastes or medications.
Man Made Biologicals: Viruses or infectious agents.
Emotional instability and/or trauma.
Non-Absorption of pancreatic secretions (pancreatin) from the intestines into the body due to scarring or damage to the small intestine from various diseases.
Our bodies produce anti-enzyme factors. These factors keep the enzymes from digesting our own bodies. Sometimes we produce an over-abundant supply of these anti-enzyme factors.
Balance: Instability and weakness of the autonomic nervous system.
Genetic: Inheriting a very small, or weak or defective (ineffective) pancreas.
Radiation Damage such as from therapeutic procedures, etc.
Spiritual weakness.
Racial Gene Pools
The pure white race, Aryans, and in particular, the Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Scandinavian, Germanic, French, Scottish, Irish and British peoples, genetically appear to have a much higher incidence of cancer than races. The Jewish race, as well as Blacks, Asians and mixed races have a much lower incidence of cancer than the Aryan race.
Races have cancer of course, but in proportion to the pancreatic damage from malnutrition, viruses or infection. In addition, the percentage of cancer within the races can be correlated to the percentage of white blood mixed in the individual’s gene pool.
Cancer Recovery
All persons who have cancer die of starvation, unlessthey are first killed — usually by their physician.
In attempting to find help and in helping others, one must comprehend the four basic parameters one confronts:
First, the stricken cancer victim and their family members have been so deceived by the Establishment that they are completely brainwashed and put in overwhelming fear.
Second, another parameter we often forget is, once a cancer victim or family member has awakened from this imprisoned condition — they trust no one. All too often, the mindset of the cancer victim is to demand an immediate, noticeable, positive, measurable response. When this is not forthcoming, they usually flip and flounder around, in and out of all forms of therapies that are claimed by their promoters as "the cure." Usually, most of the individuals who finally find Dr. Kelley’s Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program are these disappointed and disillusioned persons; without hope and adequate funding for recovery. Such persons must have at least 6 months of life and follow the Metabolic Program most carefully. Then, if they survive that long, there is a chance of recovery. This recovery period is a long and tedious one, usually lasting at least 2 years. After that, they must take a form of metabolic support for the rest of their lives.
Third, most of these individuals expect and demand immediate results or they go on to other therapies. This, however, is not the way one recovers from cancer. It is not the way they developed cancer.
It requires the failure of the pancreas from 2 to 4 years to develop a Malignant Tumor Mass — which the medical community in error calls "Cancer."
It requires at least the same length of time to clean up a ravaged body. Then the process of rebuilding the body can take place, which usually takes an additional two to four years of hard work and living right.
Then, for the rest of one’s life, one must keep a constant vigil to remain free of Malignant Tumor Masses.
Fourth, one must realize that physicians are forbidden to treat CANCER. The Enemy controlled Medical Establishment has several methods and techniques to prohibit a physician from treating cancer.
Physicians are only allowed to treat Malignant Tumor Masses and one’s purse. Dr. Morrision and I have experienced most of these diabolical acts of injustice, not only to the cancer victim, but also to the physician.
Cancer Is A "Process" — Not An "Object"
Daily, everyone produces Malignant Tumor Cells and daily, most everyone’s pancreas produces adequate pancreatin to digest the food they eat and these Malignant Tumor Cells. It is when one’s pancreas fails to produce the necessary pancreatin to accomplish these tasks that a disease "Process" takes place which we correctly call Cancer.
When this disease process occurs, one is not aware of it. It is so subtle it must progress for 2 to 4 years before one or one’s physician realizes he or she is in trouble. The things one often complains about to his or her physician during this time are indigestion and weight loss at first then, a few months later, excessive weight gain, eye trouble and pyorrhea. Eventually a large enough Malignant Tumor Mass forms — which is the "Object" or the result of the disease process that we correctly call Cancer — that the Cancer Victim and his or her physician can observe and in error calls Cancer.
The objective of Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program is to supply the body with adequate pancreatin to properly digest food, stop this disease process and to rid the body of any and all Malignant Tumor Masses. This is the proper, normal, physiological method of taking care of the disease process we correctly call Cancer.
Cancer Markers Become Temporarily Elevated and Malignant Tumor Masses Continue to Grow Temporarily
Pancreatin digests the Malignant Tumor Masses and Cells into liquid debris. This debris is then gobbled up by your white blood cells and removed from your body by way of bile from the liver, which goes into the colon and out, and urine from the kidneys, which goes into the bladder and out. A small amount of this debris leaves the body by way of skin perspiration as well as hair and nail growth.
Upon starting Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program two measurable things occur:
White blood cells increase in number, which is considered by everyone to be a good sign.
Cancer Markers become temporarily elevated, which often scares both the Cancer Victim and his or her doctor. Dr. Kelley considers elevated Cancer Markers to be a good sign for the following reason:
The Malignant Tumor Mass debris consists, in part, of Cancer Marker components. Until now most of this Cancer Marker material has been held in the tissue surrounding the Malignant Tumor Mass and usually increases when Malignant Tumor Masses continue to develop. Upon starting Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program the Cancer Markers are released into the bloodstream as the Masses are digested. This causes a high volume of Cancer Marker material to appear in the bloodstream temporarily and is the most misinterpreted part of the Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program. The second most misinterpreted part is that often the Malignant Tumor Masses continue to grow temporarily before one’s normal metabolic function can take over.
Why You’ll Feel Bad During Recovery
When the organs of detoxification become overloaded with debris one feels lousy — like you were run over by a freight train (see page 77).
This lousy feeling is how you will know that Dr. Kelley’s Metabolic Medicine’s Program is working.
If you do not feel lousy one of two things is happening:
You are not taking enough pancreatin of the correct quality or quantity
You have a very small amount of Malignant Tumor Cells and/or Masses
We expect all cancer victims taking pancreatin to feel toxic (sore, headachy, no energy, nauseous, irritable, elevated temperature, flu-like symptoms, etc.). When this occurs it indicates one’s metabolic functions are working well. At this time we recommend that you stop taking the Metabolic Nutrients for 5 days to allow your organs of detoxification time to remove this debris from your body.
Many Cancer Victims have only a small Malignant Tumor Mass and experience only mild discomfort while other Cancer Victims have very large Malignant Tumor Masses like the actor Steve McQueen (see page 131). If your physician surgically removes most of such masses one’s recovery time speeds up.
