Hi!

"In a new study, researchers at the UCSD School of Medicine and Moores Cancer Center used a complex computer prediction model to determine that intake of vitamin D3 and calcium would prevent 58,000 new cases of breast cancer and 49,000 new cases of colorectal cancer annually in the US and Canada. The researchers' model also predicted that 75% of deaths from these cancers could be prevented with adequate intake of vitamin D3 and calcium.

my favorite historical events are the sinking of the Titanic and the fall of the Romanovs. i've read zillions of books on those two subjects, so naturally, when the movie Titanic came out, i was on line to see it opening day. my friend Amy was Kate Winslet's dresser and my friend Kevin was one of three head carpenters in charge of building the "ship" which made it even more exciting. i heard lots of behind the scenes stories.
okay, the script was cheesey and the love story might be too sentiment…

my darling father woke me at 7:30 am with a birthday phone call. he called to wish me a happy life, he said, explaining that he didn't see the point of wishing a person a happy birthday, that was just a marketing ploy by the greeting card companies to influence the way we spend our money.
dear old dad; you can see where i got it from
there was no going back to sleep so i did some channel surfing and got hooked by one of those st jude appeals. i've seen a few before; they follow a poor child th…

the FDA has recently forbidden the makers and purveyors of omega-3 oils from making any health claims on it's behalf. too bad they weren't so vigilant with vioxx and a million other lethal drugs. but since they can't (yet) tell me what to see, i've decided to make some health claims on behalf of Carlson's Fish Oil. can i be arrested for this?

i first came to Charleston, SC in 1980 as a member of the wardrobe crew for the Spoleto Arts Festival. i took the job, quite frankly, to get out of another job. i wanted more than anything to collect unemployment for the summer and veg. but my employer deemed me to valuable and wouldn't lay me off even though work was slow and he didn't really have enough to keep me busy.
so i left on my own to take another job, in Charleston and the Festival would lay me off after 6 weeks so i could return home…

back when i was having a breakdown every minute, my friend, the great costume designer, Dona Granata, suggested, in fact insisted that i go to see Noran Malouf, a healer who's office just happens to be across the street from mine. Dona had never met him but he was highly recommended by trusted friends. a master of traditional chinese medicine, he uses Acupuncture, Chinese Herbology, Tui Na Massage, Kinesiology, Hypnotherapy, Meditation and Qi Gong, at least that's what it says on his website.

i had three final doctor appointments before leaving town on May 17.
they didn't recognize me at Corrine Furnari's office. the receptionist asked if she could help me and when i said i was there for my 4:00 appointment, her jaw dropped and Corrine's neck snapped around.
"my god, look at how you move!" she commented. she had never seen me before the NS and i was quite ungainly with the extra water weight.
she was a bit dramatic- she didn't think that walking to and from work was such a g…

Attempting to locate an old acquaintance by searching the Internet, I happened to find a site that addressed Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CDF) -- www.oslersweb.com -- there was a discussion about the use of
AMPLIGEN from the "Roll Call"--
"C.M., a former university ballet instructor and performer, was considering suicide before she joined the Nevada Ampligen trial. Having fallen ill at thirty-five, she already had been bedridden for five years. Her sister, who cared for [her] during seve…

We have found through testimonies, many people are finding their particular cancer in remission by aggressively taking the pure mangosteen juice 3x a day 3 ounces. Each case in totally different, however, many doctors such as Dr. Sam W, Dr. Amod Tootla, reknowned 30 board certifications are seeing individuals coming forward and sharing their cancer stories. One of the documented lab results of the 60 or more found at www.pubmed.com under 'xanthones' or 'mangosteen' from experiments is that the r…

I met Dr. Vijaya Nair when I was working at a PR firm. Dr. Nair is a Harvard and Columbia trained epidemiologist (study of disease), originally from Singapore. She wondered why the disease rate was so high in the U.S. compared to other countries. After years of study, she realized it was the diet!
I was responsible for publicizing her website (www.jivasupplements.org), also her natural supplement line (JIVA supplements) and her book, "How to Prevent Cancer, Stokes, Heart Attacks and other Deadl…

can i say that i love Dr. Morrison? he is sweet, kind and even handsome. there is nothing distancing about him as there is with most doctors, who are more interested it seems in protecting their illusion of power than they are in helping the patient. i've had a few run-ins with my cousin, who has suggested on more than one occasion that he is a quack, simply out for money. but then she is a Western doctor and is also too quick to support the status quo. have the glutathione IVs helped or was Dr.…

With great reluctance and fear, i started taking 60 mg of prednisone on the morning of Friday, April 24. i protected my stomach with rhizinate, a Deglycyrrhizinated licorice root extract, and my bones with natural progesterone cream. Corinne Furnari added 30 mg of Armour Thyroid to the mix to speed things up a bit and i had graduated from 2 capsules of omega 3 fish oils to 10 teaspoons a day before i started the prednisone. so i was already flooding my body with a natural anti-inflammatory to au…

so, we've always known that i have
nephrotic syndrome. the point of the biopsy was to determine the type. there are three kinds and the most benign and easiest to treat is called Minimal Change but Dr. Meisels told me about 100 times that it would be unlikely for me to have that because it effects mostly children under 10!
on tuesday night, i started taking salmon oil capsules and i upped my dosage on wednesday. my nutritionist, coreen, suggested using them for their natural anti-inflamma…

my roommate, donna brown, wandered in sometime during the long dull evening. at first i thought she was a nurse because she was wearing jeans and a tee shirt with a hospital gown simply tossed over her ensemble. but she was a patient, a
real patient, an interesting patient- not at all like me. donna had a medical history.
a black woman, who i assumed was a pretty good looking 60 yr old, she was really a not so in shape 48 year old. she had 4 children, the eldest was 30 and she had had ute…

the wednesday before the biopsy, i saw a nurse practitioner/ nutritionist, Coreen Funari. she remarked that i should be on 60 mg of prednisone
right now and that she would put me on as much salmon oil as i could drink. the omega 3s would act as a natural anti-inflammatory and would help reduce both the dose and duration of prednisone i might ultimately need. but she warned me not to start the oil until after the biopsy as it would increase my risk of bleeding. she asked me to call her onc…

john came with me to my appointment with Dr. Meisels. after examining me, he decided that he didn't even want to do a biopsy yet. my exam was so normal, even healthy. i'm sure he sees as a rule overweight diabetics with high blood pressure. he didn't quite know what to make of me.
he explained that i wasn't looking at kidney failure or dialysis, that my kidney function was normal, that anything could have caused this. did i have a cold or flu? did i take herbs? and it could resolve on it's own a…

Dr. Baskin called me the next day; he had the bloodwork back and something
was wrong. my blood protein level was low and my cholesterol was through the roof, about 371. and my urine had lots of protein in it- the protein that was missing from my blood.
there's such a difference between alternative and conventional doctors. when Morrison takes blood, he gives me a copy of the labs and we go over it together line by line. when Baskin takes blood, even though my insurance is paying for it, i…

i've been absent and distracted for the past few months. i was getting so bogged down in everyone's health problems that i got side swiped by one of my own! back in november i started seeing a kinesthesiologist to help me get off my asthma medication. for some years now, i've taken one puff a day of the lowest dose of advair and i wanted to be off it for good. i learned some breathing exercises and i stepped down from one puff of advair to one puff, now every three days, of the lowest dose of fl…

IP6 is Highly Effective Alternative Treatment for Cancer
by Barbara Minton, Natural Health Editor
(NaturalNews) Anyone looking for effective alternatives to the treatments offered by traditional cancer specialists might want to look at inositol hexophosphate (IP6). It is a very simple and inexpensive treatment that may easily get written off by people, who have been led to believe the cure for cancer can only be found in a laboratory through the complexities of science and only after years of e…
