"The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease." When the immune system is stressed, candida can morph from a harmless single cell form into a tube shape (hypha) that sprouts branches (mycelia) that penetrate cells and spread the infection throughout the body. 15% of the 1.5 million cancers that occur throughout the world each year are caused by infection. - Cancer Epidemiology Biomarkers & Prevention 6: 6(JUN 1997):387-400. Vitamin D is the body's natural antibiotic and antiviral compound - one that could make the difference between life and death. - Dr. David Williams Curcumin kills malaria parasites. Biochem Biophys Res Comm 05;326:472-474 Malaria may also be killed by wormwood (Artemesia annua), known as Qing hao in Chinese medicine. "Oxygen will destroy malaria." - McCabe, page 18. "In my clinic in Uganda, I used bio-oxidation to treat everything from malaria to AIDS - and with astonishing results!" - William Campbell Douglass, M.D. Enzymes in the body can deactivate viruses. The unique properties of coconut oil make it, in essence, a natural antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and antiprozoal food. - Bruce Fife, N.D. page 64 Eat some coconut oil every day. "The application of electricity to the blood eliminates ALL viruses, parasites, microbes, fungi, pathogens, bacteria from the blood." - Dr. Bob Beck. Do a search of the Internet for Bob Beck and try his protocol. Electro-medicine is economical and effective. "Give me a chance to create fever and I will cure any disease," said the great physician Parmenides, 2,000 years ago. Fever is one of the body's defense and healing forces. High temperature speeds up metabolism, and inhibits the growth of an invading virus or bacteria. See Hyperthermia. "Iodine is by far the best antibiotic, antiviral and antiseptic of all time." - Dr. David Derry |
Reducing these infections by strengthening your immune system, iodine, hyperthermia, exercise, oxygen, meditation, electromedicine, glyconutrients and other means can help alkalize your body and reduce your risk of cancer. Some of these infections can be treated successfully by your doctor, some cannot. Using an antibiotic to remove an infection does nothing to prevent future infections. An ongoing program of personal hygiene and health maintenance must include ways to prevent, control and remove infections.
Candida Candida is a yeast or fungus that lives in everyone. When the immune system becomes weakened, a Candida outbreak can occur in the mouth, esophagus, digestive tract, skin, mucus membranes, vagina, urinary tract. It can enter the blood and spread throughout the body to include the kidneys, liver, bones, muscles, joints, spleen, or eyes causing a variety of diseases (including arthritis) depending on where it manifests. When it enters the bloodstream and spreads throughout the body, about 50% of these cases are fatal. Fungus feeds on sugar and carbohydrates such as are found in grains. An anti-candida diet will minimize these foods. Sugar and grains are also the main dietary sources of mycotoxins. Eating coconut oil daily is a good way to control fungal infections. Iodine is effective against fungi. You can rub iodine on your skin each day and the body will absorb what it needs. Or you can consume potassium iodide. Both forms of iodine are used by the body. DMG (Dimethylglycine) is
an inexpensive nutritional supplement that strengthens the body in a wide
variety of ways, including improving the immune system. DMG has anti-fungal
properties. Epstein Barr Virus Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) is found in about 95% of the population. There is no drug treatment for EBV. In teenagers, EBV causes infectious mononucleosis. In adults, EBV is associated with chronic fatigue syndrome and certain cancers (Burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma). Fifty percent of breast cancers studied contained evidence of infection with the Epstein-Barr virus. The virus was not found in the surrounding normal breast tissue. Lipid-coated microorganisms such as Epstein Barr virus are killed by medium chain fatty acids produced by the digestion of coconut oil. - Bruce Fife, N.D. page 68
A study of athletes experiencing fatigue and declining performance due to
Epstein Barr Virus demonstrated that consuming a probiotic supplement (Lactobacillus
acidophilus) daily for a month cleared up the problem. - Brit J
Sports Med 06;40(4):351-354. We recommend oxygen, sunlight,
iodine, DMG and a strong immune system to control viral infections. Chlamydia Pneumoniae 50% of the population shows evidence of having had Chlamydia pneumoniae infection by age 20. It safe to say that nearly every adult has had this bacteria in their body. Symptoms of Chlamydia pneumoniae infection include a cough. The common respiratory bacteria Chlamydia pneumoniae may play a key role in coronary artery disease, the leading cause of death. Chlamydia pneumoniae may also play a role in Alzheimer’s disease, asthma, and arthritis. From your lungs, this bacteria has easy access to your bloodstream and the rest of your body. Lipid-coated microorganisms such as Chlamydia pneumoniae are killed by medium chain fatty acids produced by the digestion of coconut oil. - Bruce Fife, N.D. page 68 Helicobacter Pylori Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a cork screw shaped bacteria that according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) inhabits about two thirds of the world's population. H. pylori can damage the stomach lining leading to ulcers, and may also be involved in heart disease, autoimmune diseases, skin diseases and several cancers (stomach, pancreas and larynx). Regular consumption of probiotic bacteria (yoghurt, etc.) offers a natural means to help control Helicobacter pylori. - Journal of Applied Microbiology Volume 93 Issue 6 Page 1083 - December 2002 H. pylori is also killed by the amino acid glycine. - Antimicrob Agents Chemother 04;48(10):3782-8. You will find glycine in whey protein powder. H. pylori is also killed by a chemical in broccoli sprouts, which also have an anti-cancer effect. - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences May 28, 2002. Lipid-coated microorganisms such as H. pylori are killed by medium chain fatty acids produced by the digestion of coconut oil. - Bruce Fife, N.D. page 68.
DMG is useful in controlling ulcers. A healthy digestive tract is called by some doctors your "second immune system". Human Papilloma Virus Human papilloma virus (genital warts) affects the sexually active population. About 80% of women are infected with HPV by age 50.
Modern medicine offers no cure. HPV is associated with anal, bladder and genital cancers in both men and women. Chlamydia trachomatis, human papilloma virus, and genital herpes all contribute to cervical cancer. Chlamydia Trachomatis Chlamydia trachomatis bacteria is reported to infect about a million Americans annually, but the total number is unknown because most have mild or no symptoms. Untreated Chlamydia can cause problems including arthritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and sterility. Chlamydia, human papilloma virus, and genital herpes all contribute to cervical cancer. Genital Herpes Genital herpes virus affects one in four women and one in five men. There is no drug cure. Chlamydia, human papilloma virus, and genital herpes all contribute to cervical cancer. Lipid-coated microorganisms such as Herpes simplex virus are killed by medium chain fatty acids produced by the digestion of coconut oil. - Bruce Fife, N.D. page 68
Tuberculosis (TB) The CDC estimates that about 1/3
of the population of the planet have the TB bacteria in their body. The
disease develops when the immune system cannot keep the tubercle bacilli
under control. See our section on
healthy lungs.
Syphilus Syphilus is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the cork screw shaped bacterium Treponema pallidum. The incidence of syphilus is increasing at about 12% per annum. However, syphilus in women is declining. All of the increase in syphilus is in the male homosexual community. In its early stages, syphilus is easily cured with antibiotics. Long term syphilus infection has been called “the great imitator” because so many of the signs and symptoms are indistinguishable from those of other diseases. Hyperthermia is a traditional treatment for syphilus.
Iodine
in amounts greater than one gram daily. Lyme Disease Lyme disease is caused by a cork screw shaped spirochetes bacteria very similar to syphilus. The bacteria is spiral shaped and by rotating it can self-propel itself through your tissues, tendons, muscles, heart and brain. It used to be thought that Lyme disease was caused only by being bitten by a tick. However, it is now believed that the bacteria can be spread by other insects including fleas, mosquitoes and mites, as well as directly between humans via blood, urine, tears, semen, breast milk, cord blood, and vaginal secretions. "More than 50% of chronically ill people may have Lyme contributing to their condition." - Dr. Cowden Lyme disease may be present in the body with no symptoms until a trauma weakens the immune system. Then Lyme disease can present symptoms that mimic over 350 other diseases. People diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, Alzheimer's, chronic fatigue syndrome and other degenerative diseases could have Lyme Disease. Lyme disease is the new "great imitator". Doctors familiar with Lyme disease estimate that as many as 20 million Americans may be infected and that the rate of new infections is very high. Lyme disease is very difficult to treat. Doctors sometimes put patients on antibiotics for many years. Oxygen is gaining popularity as a treatment for Lyme disease. Lyme bacteria is NOT anaerobic. It is called "microaerophyllic" which means that it requires a small amount of oxygen. However, it can be killed by large amounts of oxygen. Hyperbaric oxygen chambers are expensive, especially if you need to use them repeatedly. Plus, there may be places in the body where the oxygen does not penetrate to the degree necessary to kill the bacteria. Therefore, we would suggest that oxygen is an important part of a program to treat Lyme disease and that other treatments are also required. Plus, we would suggest that EWOT is a more economical form of oxygen therapy that can be done at home. One herb that has been found to be effective is
Uncaria tomentosa (Cats Claw). This herb is also sometimes used to treat cancer. More information on Lyme disease: http://www.mercola.com/2001/jul/25/lyme_disease.htm *** For all infections, we suggest consulting with your doctor, plus a comprehensive program of health promotion using the home therapies promoted on this web site. Sunlight is a natural disinfectant and everyone should expose their skin to a moderate amount of sunlight regularly. Oxygen is a natural disinfectant and Exercise with Oxygen Therapy (EWOT) is a powerful and economical treatment that can be done at home. Hyperthermia helps to purify the body and should be enjoyed regularly by everyone. A strong immune system is maintained by a healthy diet including freshly made fruit & vegetable juices, glyconutrients plus regular exercise, and meditation. Electromedicine provides an economical way to attack stubborn infections.
Iodine is effective against bacteria, viruses and fungi. Everyone should
consume a little iodine each day, either by rubbing tincture of
iodine on the skin or consuming potassium iodide. DMG strengthens the immune
system in a variety of ways. All of these can be an important part of your healthy lifestyle, preventing disease as well as treating it.
