Many
herbalists believe that Cayenne is the most useful and valuable herb in
the herb kingdom, not only for the entire digestive system, but also for
the heart and circulatory system. It acts as a catalyst and increases the
effectiveness of other herbs when used with them.
Cayenne is a medicinal and nutritional herb. It is a very high
source of Vitamins A and C, has the complete B complexes, and is very rich
in organic calcium and potassium, which is one of the reasons it is good
for the heart.
Digestion
Cayenne can rebuild the tissue in the stomach and the peristaltic action
in the intestines. It aids elimination and assimilation, and helps
the body to create hydrochloric acid, which is so necessary for good digestion
and assimilation, especially of proteins. All this becomes very significant
when we realize that the digestive system plays the most important role
in mental, emotional and physical health, as it is through the digestive
system that the brain, glands, muscles and every other part of the body
are fed.
Heart
Cayenne has been known to stop heart attacks within 30 seconds.
For example, when a 90-year-old man in Oregon had a severe heart attack,
his daughter was able to get Cayenne extract into his mouth. He was
pronounced dead by the medics, but within a few minutes, he regained consciousness.
On the way to the hospital, he remained in a semi-conscious state, but
the daughter kept giving him the Cayenne extract. By the time they
got to the hospital, he had fully recovered and wanted to go home
and mow the lawn. The doctor asked what she had given him, as he
said it was the closest thing to a miracle he had ever seen.
Capsicum (cayenne pepper) is said to be unequal for its ability to boost
circulation and increase heart action. Capsicum exerts a variety of desirable
actions on the entire cardiovascular system. It has the extraordinary ability
to enhance cardiovascular performance while actually lowering blood pressure.
Capsicum has an energizing effect on the entire system. It has traditionally
been used for overcoming fatigue and restoring stamina and vigor. It is
a natural stimulant without the threatening side effects (palpitations,
hyper-activity or rise in blood pressure) of most other stimulating agents.
Because Capsicum boots peripheral circulation and stimulates organ secretion,
it expedites the therapeutic delivery and action of nutrients in the body.
It will ensure the rapid and even distribution of the active principles
of available nutrients to critical function centers, including those involved
in cellular respiration, metabolic data transmission and neural-hormonal
action. The remarkable ability of Capsicum to stimulate organ secretion
and even heart action makes it one of the strongest natural stimulants
known. Clearly, Capsicum should be considered nothing less than a wonder
herb that has scientifically proven its worth! Heart
Attacks: Cayenne
If
a heart attack should occur, it is suggested that a teaspoon of extract
be given every 15 minutes or a teaspoon of Cayenne in a glass of hot water
be taken until the crisis has passed. Dr. Anderson also knew of a
doctor who rushed out into the parking lot and put cayenne tincture into
the mouth of a man who had died of a heart attack while he was parking
his car. Within a few minutes, the man’s heart starting beating again.
According to Dr. Richard Anderson, using cayenne
and hawthorn berries together has a most incredible effect upon the
heart. He believes that a regimen of cayenne and hawthorn berries
for several months will greatly strengthen the heart, and possibly
prevent heart attacks. He states further that if an attack were to
occur in someone who had followed this regimen, chances are very good that
no damage would occur. He tells the following story about his
mother:
“I had her taking hawthorn berries and cayenne when she had a heart
attack at the age of 79. Her diet had not been the best, and she
was in an extremely stressful situation. While in the hospital, they found
three blocked arteries and wanted to operate immediately. They did
not think that she could survive for more than a few weeks if they didn’t
operate. (How many have heard that story!) The doctors thought
it would be very risky to operate, but they had her there, and there was
a lot of money to be made. So they decided to take some tests in
the hopes that they could find an excuse to operate. In spite of
the fact that she had been taking lots of aspirin for her arthritis,
smoked like she was the reincarnation of a boiler factory, and had just
had a heart attack, they found that her heart was incredibly strong.
In fact, they felt that her heart was stronger than most people in
their 30’s! The good news was that not only did she survive the operation,
but also she stopped smoking! Well worth the operation, don’t you
think? In my opinion, that was the best thing the doctors ever did for
her. Well, that is what hawthorn and cayenne can do for the heart,
and every good herbalist knows it; every good doctor should also know it,
but very few do.”
Emergencies
It is a good idea to always have some Cayenne extract on hand for emergencies.
Dr. Anderson carries capsules of cayenne with him in the car and whenever
he goes hiking, backpacking or mountain climbing. He says, “You never
know when you may find someone having a heart attack or some other emergency.”
The following stories demonstrate only a few of the remarkable emergency
uses of cayenne.
If a hemorrhage occurs in the lungs, stomach, uterus or nose, it is
suggested that a teaspoon of extract (or a teaspoon of cayenne powder in
a cup of hot water) be given every 15 minutes until the crisis has passed.
The bleeding should stop in 10-30 seconds. The reason for this is
that rather than the blood pressure being centralized, it is equalized
by the Cayenne, and the clotting action of the blood becomes more rapid.
For external bleeding, take cayenne internally and pour cayenne directly
on the wound.
Dyspepsia
In a double-blind study, 30 individuals with dyspepsia were given either
2.5 grams daily of red pepper powder (divided up and taken prior to meals)
or placebo for 5 weeks. By the third week of treatment, individuals taking
red pepper were experiencing significant improvements in pain, bloating,
and nausea as compared to placebo, and these relative improvement lasted
through the end of the study.
A placebo-controlled crossover study failed to find benefit, but it
only enrolled 11 participants, far too few to have much chance of identifying
a treatment effect.
All double-blind studies of topical capsaicin (or cayenne) suffer from
one drawback: it isn't really possible to hide the burning sensation that
occurs during initial use of the treatment. For this reason, such studies
probably aren't truly double-blind. It has been suggested that instead
of an inactive placebo, researchers should use some other substance (such
as camphor) that causes at least mild burning. However, such treatments
might also have therapeutic benefits; they have a long history of use for
pain as well.
Because of these complications, the evidence for topical treatments
cited below is less meaningful than it might at first appear.
Pain
Capsaicin cream is well established as a modestly helpful pain-relieving
treatment for post-herpetic neuropathy (the pain that lingers after an
attack of shingles) peripheral neuropathy (nerve pain that occurs most
commonly as a side effect of diabetes, but may occur with HIV as well as
other conditions), nerve pain after cancer surgery and arthritis.
Capsaicin instilled into the nose may be helpful for cluster headache.
(The fact that this has even been considered a viable treatment option
shows how painful cluster headaches can be!)
Actual cayenne rather than capsaicin has been tested for pain as well.
A 3-week, double-blind trial of 154 individuals with back pain found that
cayenne applied topically as a plaster improved pain to a greater extent
than placebo.
Skin Conditions
A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of almost 200 individuals found
that use of topical capsaicin can improve itching as well as overall severity
of psoriasis. Benefits were also seen in a smaller double-blind study of
topical capsaicin for psoriasis. Topical capsaicin is thought to be helpful
for various itchy skin conditions, such as prurigo nodularis, but double-blind
studies are lacking.

Heart
Attacks: Cayenne
Dr. Christopher
"In 35 years of practice, and working with the people and teaching,
I have never on house calls lost one heart attack patient and the reason
is, whenever I go in--if they are still breathing--I pour down them a cup
of cayenne tea (a teaspoon of cayenne in a cup of hot water, and within
minutes they are up and around). This is one of the fastest acting aids
we could ever give for the heart, because it feeds that heart immediately.
Most hearts are suffering from malnutrition because of processed food we
are eating, but here it gets a good powerful dose of real food and it's
something that has brought people in time after time. This is something
that everyone should know how great it is, because a heart attack can come
to your friends or loved ones any time. And even yourself. The warm tea
is faster working than tablets, capsules, cold tea, because the warm tea
opens up the cell structure--makes it expand and accept the cayenne that
much faster, and it goes directly to the heart, through the artery system,
and feeds it in powerful food. "

Healing Power of Cayenne Pepper : Complete Handbook of Cayenne Home Remedies

Curativos De Los Chiles/Healiing Powers of Hot Peppers
Left

This book digs up the dirt on the medical establishment saying that
heart surgery can nearly kill you and do you no good in the end, all done
with a whopping price-tag. Drugs are favored over herbs since they can
be patented and sold to patients for great profits. Dick Quinn gives his
personal testimony about nearly dying from heart surgery, but finally getting
well by taking Cayenne, Garlic, Onion and other herbs,
but mainly Cayenne. He scoured the earth looking for the hottest Cayenne
he could find to burn his insides out! But no matter how much it burns,
it's all good for you. He started his own herb company servicing mainly
heart conditions which had a lot of loyal customers until the FDA... shut
him down because his cure was effective and cheap, and the medical establishment
did not profit. I ran out and bought some Cayenne and popped several daily.
I really didn't get the energy boost he got, but I suppose they're helping.
The book tells his story first, then describes some herbs secondly, and
then ends with the disadvantages of heart surgery. There are sage quotes
about the medical establishment and goodness of healing herbs throughout
the book from distinguished men. The book seems somewhat disjointed as
it goes into its different, but inter-related parts written by different
authors. Quinn's story is short, skims the surface, and has some drama,
but certainly is not a candidate for an Oscar winning movie. The writing
style is direct, conversational, and informative and skips all literary
flourishes to get the news out that herbs can heal. I found particularly
interesting that drugs like aspirin merely synthetically imitate the healing
effects of herbs, such as aspirin being derived from Willow Bark.
Dr. John Christopher, famous natural healer, praised the use
of Cayenne throughout the time of his practice. He had this to say in his
Newsletter titled "Cayenne", Vol 1, Number 12
"In 35 years of practice, and working with the people and teaching,
I have never on house calls lost one heart attack patient and the reason
is, whenever I go in--if they are still breathing--I pour down them a cup
of cayenne tea (a teaspoon of cayenne in a cup of hot water, and within
minutes they are up and around). This is one of the fastest acting aids
we could ever give for the heart, because it feeds that heart immediately.
Most hearts are suffering from malnutrition because of processed food we
are eating, but here it gets a good powerful dose of real food and it's
something that has brought people in time after time. This is something
that everyone should know how great it is, because a heart attack can come
to your friends or loved ones any time. And even yourself. The warm tea
is faster working than tablets, capsules, cold tea, because the warm tea
opens up the cell structure--makes it expand and accept the cayenne that
much faster, and it goes directly to the heart, through the artery system,
and feeds it in powerful food.
To show the value of cayenne, and how great it is, and what a wonderful
heart food it is, this story has been repeated in a number of publications
on doctors in the East who put some live heart tissue into a sterile beaker
filled with distilled water, and fed it nothing but cayenne pepper, cleaning
off sediments periodically and adding nothing but distilled water from
natural evaporation. During the time that they were feeding the heart tissue,
they would have to trim it continually every few days because it would
grow so rapidly. Having no control glands (pituitary and pineal glands),
the tissue just continued to grow rapidly and, because of this, they had
to watch it over the years and the doctors and associates kept the heart
tissue alive for fifteen years. After the doctor died, his associates kept
it alive for two more years before destroying it so they could do more
research work on it. This shows the high food value cayenne gives to heart
tissue. This is why so many, many amazing instances have come to light,
people who have used cayenne when they had heart attacks because, in most
cases, your heart attack is a case of malnutrition. The heart hasn't had
a decent meal for so long that it is practically starved, and we give it
immediately a good meal instead of whipping it with nitroglycerine or digitalis
or some other type of drug to force it to beat rapidly to bring more food
values to the heart so that it could find a little help to keep going.
Here we give the cayenne directly to the system, and it goes into the heart
area acting as a good full meal. Many fast responses come from this."
Historical or traditional use of cayenne
The potent, hot fruit of cayenne has been used as medicine for centuries.
It was considered helpful for various conditions of the gastrointestinal
tract, including stomachaches, cramping pains, and gas. Cayenne was frequently
used to treat diseases of the circulatory system. It is still traditionally
used in herbal medicine as a circulatory tonic (a substance believed to
improve circulation). Rubbed on the skin, cayenne is a traditional, as
well as modern, remedy for rheumatic pains and arthritis due to what is
termed a counterirritant effect. A counterirritant is something which causes
irritation to a tissue to which it is applied, thus distracting from the
original irritation (such as joint pain in the case of arthritis).

Cholesterol Truth
- The Dangers of Low Blood Cholesterol and Cholesterol-lowering Medication
The idea that too much animal fat and a high cholesterol is dangerous
to your heart and vessels is nothing but a myth. Cholesterol is not a deadly
poison, 
but
a substance vital to the cells of all mammals. Researchers at the University
San Diego School of Medicine UCSD point out that high cholesterol in those
over 75 years of age is protective, rather than harmful and that low cholesterol
is a risk factor for heart arrhythmias (leading cause of death if heart
attack occurs). Researchers from the University of Denmark report that
about 15% of cholesterol lowering drug users over the age of 50 will suffer
from nerve damage as direct result of using statin drugs. USA Today reported
that Statins have killed and injured more people than the government has
acknowledged. more
Obstetrician-gynecologist McGee has been in general practice in Ecuador

The title of his book arises from his insistence that more than 80 percent
of angiograms and heart bypass surgeries are unnecessary. He also argues
that cholesterol isn't as major a factor
in provoking heart attacks as it is made out to be, and that advertising
and greed are among the main forces driving many drug companies and much
of medical practice to say that it is. This isn't the ivory-tower spouting

Botanical
Influences on Cardiovascular Disease
by Alan L. Miller, N.D.
The best-known herb for the heart in western herbalism is Hawthorn
(Crataegus). The extract of hawthorn can increase blood flow to the heart
muscle itself, helping to counteract one of the most common modern causes
of death in industrial countries--heart attack due to lack of blood flow
to the heart. In pharmacological tests on both animals and humans, hawthorn
has been shown to improve the contractility of the heart muscle (which
can lead to a stronger pumping action of the heart), increase cardiac performance
and output, lower the peripheral vascular resistance (reducing the workload
of the heart), steady the heartbeat (antiarrhythmic effect), as well as
increasing the heart's tolerance to oxygen deficiency, such as might happen
during stress or excitement, or in diseases where the arteries are partially
blocked."

C.K. Benny Foo, M.D. - "My
mum is 89 years young and suffers from ischaemic heart disease and congestive
cardiac failure. Her main complaints were severe shortness of breath on
mild exertion, and coughing. She had to be wheeled around whenever we took
her for an outing. I took two bottles of Transfer
Factor Cardio home to Australia and started my mum on 2 capsules
twice a day. After only three weeks she noticed some improvement in her
breathing. After only 5 weeks she said the new capsules we brought back
were #1, indicating with her right thumb up. Now she is able to walk further
with much less shortness of breath. In mid-October we took her to Werribbee
Zoo and brought the wheel chair along for her to use. After a short journey
in the wheel chair she decided to walk by herself. We tried to dissuade
her and told her that the walk would be too much for her heart. She insisted,
and so we relented and let her push the wheelchair around the zoo. She
completed the walk around the zoo with no shortness of breath! She has
derived other benefits from taking TF Cardio, both her appetite and weight
have increased! We are extremely happy TF Cardio has helped her. We strongly
recommend TF Cardio for anyone with cardiovascular problems."
"In October 2002 I had a C-reactive
Protein test (CRP) done to measure the level of inflammation in my artery
walls after having read a number of articles indicating this type of inflammation
as being the root cause of heart attacks. My CRP reading was 7.9,
with 8.7 being about the highest and worst one can have. This test showed
I was at very high risk of having a heart attack. One physician
I shared this with commented, in front of a large audience, that if my
CRP reading stayed at that level, I was virtually guaranteed to
have a heart attack. From the day I received my CRP test results, to this
day, I have consumed 4 TF Cardio daily. At the end of February, 2003, I
had the CRP level checked again. In just four short months of consuming
TF Cardio, I am now close to having the BEST level one could have, 1.1.
The lowest and best reading on the chart is 1.0! I believe our TF Cardio
product most likely saved my life." Richard Helgeland, Washington

Blood Pressure / Hypertension
More Nutrients for the Heart - Cardiovascular System
Hypertension, heart disease and strokes are problems that start with
the lining of arteries, called the endothelium. When the cell membranes
of the endothelium are inflamed, oxidized, toxic and lacking in energy,
they go into spasms (blood pressure goes up, and transient lack of circulation
in the coronaries is noted, as well as damage to the brain), they become
more sticky, and clotting is augmented (cholesterol then sticks to the
lining, starting plaque formation, and decreased circulation to the heart
and brain).
Increased levels of insulin are very
inflammatory to the endothelium. Also, higher levels of insulin cause
the liver to lose its ability to keep cholesterol from becoming inflamed,
and oxidized. A lack of antioxidants in the liver compounds this problem,
resulting in toxic levels of cholesterol, which will readily stick to the
endothelium, already sticky from the same mechanisms. As you may surmise,
FrequenSea begins to correct all the above mechanisms of disease. Specifically,
it improves the Nitrous Oxide Synthase (NOS) pathway of inflammation, making
the arteries less inflamed and oxidized. A dysfunctional NOS is one of
the most important issues behind endothelial inHammaricm.
Also, inflammation of the liver and endothelium is increased by toxins
such as heavy metals. Any food high in antioxidants in general, and Marine
Phytoplankton in particular, will help detoxify these foreign chemicals.
Toxins such as Homocysteine
are produced by our liver, when it lacks enough B vitamins to carry out
its functions, particularly methylation. Homocysteine has been shown to
be an inflammatory molecule, and it's practically present in all diseases
that have an inflammatory component. Marine Phytoplankton
decreases
the levels of Homocysteine.
By improving the health of our intestinal flora, Marine phytoplankton
increases the levels of Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA), which are indispensable
to the health of cell membranes, particularly the endothelium. SCFA are
only produced by benign intestinal organisms. This is why Probiotics
have been found to reduce heart disease. The high amino acid content of
Marine phytoplankton is also helpful in reducing the risk of heart disease.
L-Arginine, an amino acid found in Marine phytoplankton, has been found
to be critical to maintain a healthy NOS and endothelium. A lack thereof
has been associated with significant inflammation/oxidation of the cell
membranes lining arteries.

the rebuilding of a healthy life) is marine phytoplankton.

Surviving a heart attack

A testimonial by Shirley (author of this website)
My husband had a severe heart attack (MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
-
an area of tissue death due to blocking off of its blood supply). I credit
his full recovery to the following: hawthorn berries (crataegus) extract---
10 drops twice a day; kyolic (aged garlic), magnesium citrate, ginseng,
flaxoil, selenium, zinc, vitamins A and E as well as other multi vitamins;
and 2 tablespoons of flaxoil. Shirley detail
Medicinal
Action and Uses of hawthorn extract
"Medicinal Action and Uses: Mainly used as a cardiac tonic in organic
and functional heart troubles."
Hawthorn, touted as effective in reducing angina attacks by lowering
blood pressure and cholesterol levels, should never
be taken with Lanoxin (digoxin), the
medication prescribed for most for heart ailments. The mix can lower your
heart rate too much, causing blood to pool, bringing on possible heart
failure.

Cayenne
for your health
"Cayenne
has the ability to clear the blood of matter and gasses that cause digestive
problems and to help people who suffer from cold hands or feet. It alleviates
inflammation and can break up the deposits that contribute to the pain
of arthritis. It clears sinus congestion, conjunctivitis, and spongy, bleeding
gums. Because it also has astringent qualities, it can stop bleeding and
prevent swelling. A source of Vitamin C, it rejuvenates the entire body
when energy is depleted and is such a powerful stimulant that just a few
sips of cayenne water or a few grains of cayenne on the lips may help prevent
shock or depression in times of physical or emotional trauma. And it is
believed to be a good tonic for strengthening the heart. From my studies
and my own experience with cayenne, I consider it to be an important ingredient
for anybody interested in taking educated and careful responsibility for
his or her own well-being in situations that are not serious enough to
require a doctor's care or in circumstances in which medical attention
is not immediately available. "
Goji
(lycium) Berries (Lycium, Barbary Wolfberry)
Goji contains cyperone,
a sesquiterpene that benefits the heart and blood pressure. Its anthocyanins
help to maintain the strength and integrity of coronary arteries.
"I've been drinking Goji
juice for 6 weeks now. My blood pressure went down from 156/90 to 123/67,
I feel stronger, all the congestion on my lungs came out within 2 weeks.
My discharge is plentiful and more often, releasing all unnecessary fat/waste.
I already stopped taking blood thinner. Goji took care of my irregular
heart beat. My body aching went away in 3-1/2 weeks. I eat less food, drink
more liquid and sleep good. My wife started 2 weeks after I
did and feels stronger and her arthritis is getting better. My daughter
followed my wife and her back pain is also going away. Her acne is going
away. We continue to drink Goji daily and feel better daily. This
is for real. My dosage is 2 oz morning, 2 oz evening; my wife and daughter
take 1 oz morning, 1 oz evening. We are a healthy family." Fred
C., Guam, U.S.A.
"I
am a nurse at our Regional Trauma Center. My husband (59 years old) and
I (42) started drinking Goji
juice in January 2006. My husband
is disabled because he suffers from COPD, high blood pPressure, and chronic
pain. Since drinking Goji for only 2
1/2 months he has only used his inhalers once. He used to use them at least
twice a day. He has had no pain in his back or foot (he broke his foot
in 1986). His blood pressure has improved and he has lost weight (20 lbs).
I had my knee reconstructed about 13 years ago and was talking to the doctor
about getting it injected or having more surgery due to the pain. I have
had very little pain since using Goji . I
had started having hot flashes and they have just about stopped since the
Goji
.

Lower Cholesterol
- Goji contains beta-sitosterol, which has been shown to lower cholesterol
levels. Its antioxidants keep cholesterol from oxidizing and forming arterial
plaques.
-
Depressurize - The effects
of Goji’s master molecule polysaccharides on endothelial function were
observed by Jia YX et al. (1998) in China. Their results showed that the
increase of blood pressure in the hypertensive rats could be prevented
significantly by the treatment with Goji polysaccharides. A new cerebroside
was isolated from the Goji berry that could protect the liver cells of
rats from the toxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride. In a further study,
Kim SY et al. (1999) postulated that the Goji cerebrosides may preserve

Goji Fights Lipid Peroxidation
In Two Ways - The accumulation of lipid peroxides in the blood
can lead to cardiovascular disease, heart attack, atherosclerosis, and
stroke. Our blood contains the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase
(SOD) to fight against lipid peroxidation, but levels of SOD decrease as
we age. In a Ningxia Medical University study, Goji berry consumption was
accompanied by a remarkable 40 percent increase in SOD levels, and a decrease
in lipid peroxides of an impressive 65 percent. It has been noted that
Goji actually contains a unique iron-containing form of SOD. An investigation
by Huang Y et al. (1999) in China found that lipid peroxidation was also
significantly inhibited by Goji’s flavonoids.

Therapeutic
Fasting and Detoxification - Internal Cleansing - Optimum Health Through
Natural Hygiene Detoxification is a normal body process of
eliminating or neutralizing toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs,
lymph and skin. Fasting is the world's most ancient and natural healing
mechanism. Fasting triggers a truly wondrous cleansing process that reaches
right down to each and every cell and tissue in the body. more
Detoxification
for Optimum Health - Chemicals and Toxins Are The Primary Cause of Illness,
Disease and Obesity Substances that are toxic to our bodies
come at us from all directions: the air we breathe, the food we eat, the
water we drink, the cleaning products we use, and the metabolic waste produced
inside us. Toxins build-up in the body contribute to premature aging and
chronic and degenerative diseases. Dr. Steve Nugent, the past president
of the American Naturopathic Medical Association, reported recently that
"in the typical American home there are more toxins inside the home than
outside the home! Your cells actually contain over 400 new toxins that
didn't even exist 45 years ago and we are losing the battle against toxins!"
It's a fact. There are increasing amounts of toxins and chemical agents
in the water we drink, the food we eat and the air we breathe - they all
contribute to the breakdown in cellular communication and disease. more
The
Incredible Healing Powers of Raw (Living) Foods and Juices - The
fastest way to restore wellness is to stop putting into the body the things
that have caused the physical problem to develop in the first place, and
then give the body the nutrients it needs to repair and rebuild itself.
The body is self-healing when the infraction is stopped and proper nutrients
provided.
Dr.
Anderson, author of Cleanse
and Purify Thyself, tells of one time when he was on the beach
and a man began passing a kidney stone . The man took some cayenne,
which relieved his pain almost immediately.
A person known to Dr. Anderson had a severe toothache in the middle
of the night on a weekend. He tried many things to relieve
the pain. Cayenne was the only thing that helped.
One
of the youngest persons to take cayenne was a six-week old baby who was
born with chronic asthma. Dr. John Christopher administered the cayenne
using an eyedropper, and it then became possible for the baby to breathe
normally.
Dr. Christopher has used cayenne to eliminate allergies, varicose veins,
cramps, constipation, and to increase energy.
Dr. Anderson recommends cayenne to help cleanse the body, increase body
heat, improve circulation, and strengthen the eyes. But above all,
Dr. Anderson feels that cayenne is exceptionally beneficial for the heart.
Rich Anderson published the first Cleanse and Purify Thyself in 1988.
It became one of the most popular books on cleansing ever written. With
almost no advertising, this book spread around the world and was translated
into several languages.

Healing
Clay - Healing Earth Clay is renowned to have many uses in promoting
health in plants, animals and humans. Bentonite, Pascalite, as well as
other types of healing clays, have been used by indigenous cultures since
before recorded history. According to Knishinsky, benefits reported by
people using liquid clay for a period of two to four weeks include: improved
intestinal regularity; relief from chronic constipation, diarrhea, indigestion,
and ulcers; a surge in physical energy; clearer complexion; brighter, whiter
eyes; enhanced alertness; emotional uplift; improved tissue and gum repair;
and increased resistance to infections. Clay works on the entire organism.
No part of the body is left untouched by its healing energies, he notes.
"The eating of clay has been observed in [ native ] peoples and animals
in all parts of the world since antiquity. Early writers described the
widespread use of kanwa ( earth from a lick near Lake Chad ) for animals
and humans in Nigeria. Long journeys were made to [ this ] lick to obtain
a tribal supply of this earth, and it was then issued as rations to cattle
and humans... learn more
Other Earth Cure: Fulvic
Acids and Shilajit Fulvic Acid and Shilajit are involved in
complex biochemical reactions in living plants and animals, which directly
influence the very metabolic processes at the cellular level. Fulvic acid
is a humic substance or extract. Humic substances are found in rich humus
soil in trace amounts and are
considered nature's own best medicine
for plants, animals, humans,
and the Earth itself. To the science
of living cells, fulvic acids are vital in bringing substantial amounts
of nutrients and minerals into water solution and delivering their living
energies to the living cells. Fulvic acid assists every stage of cellular
metabolism and is the most powerful, natural electrolyte known. It restores
electrical balance to damaged cells, neutralizes toxins and can eliminate
food poisoning within minutes. Shilajit in Sanskrit means "conqueror
of mountains and destroyer of weakness". It comes from the rocks in the
lower Himalayas and is the most important natural remedy of Ayurvedic medicine.
The
active principle of shilajit is fulvic acid.
Traditionally considered
a panacea and a strong kidney tonic, it increases the core energy responsible
for your sexual and spiritual power, the same force that is withered by
stress and anxiety. “There is hardly any curable disease which cannot be
controlled or cured with the aid of Shilajit.” - Famous Indian Vaid Charak
(1st Century A.D. It is used by the indigenous system of medicine in India,
Hakims and Vaids and traditional healers, in a great variety of diseases:
genitourinary diseases, diabetes, chronic bronchitis, asthma, gall stones,
jaundice, painful and bleeding piles, enlarged liver and spleen, fermentative
dyspepsia, digestive disorders, worms, renal and bladder calculi, nervous
debility, sexual neurasthenia, hysteria, anaemia and in bone fracture.
"Bee
Pollen is often referred to as nature's most complete
food, containing all of the 22 elements that the human body requires to
function, provides you with 135 essential nutrients, a vast array of vitamins,
minerals, amino acids and more. Human consumption of bee pollen is praised
in the Bible, other religious books, and ancient Chinese and Egyptian texts.
It has long been prescribed by traditional health practitioners-including
the fathers of Western medicine Hippocrates, Pliny the Elder, and Pythagoras-for
its healing properties. Bee pollen rejuvenates the body, stimulates organs
and glands, enhances vitality, and brings about a longer life span. Bee
pollen's ability to consistently and noticeably increase energy levels
makes it a favorite substance among many world class athletes and those
interested in sustaining and enhancing quality performance." Steve Schecter

Profound Life-Giving
Properties of Marine Phytoplankton
Dr.
Jerry Tennant, MD, from the Tennant Institute of Integrative Medicine,
explains that the micronutrients and electrolytes in marine phytoplankton
are exactly what human cell membranes need to carry out their metabolism.
Not surprisingly, the composition of human plasma, or fluid surrounding
cell membranes, is similar to that of sea water. For three billion years
Marine Phytoplankton has supported virtually all living creatures in the
Ocean. It contains a unique combination of life sustaining nutrients
including; Omega 3 essential fatty acids (EPA and DHA), protein, chlorophyll,
vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Overdependence on land-based food
sources often lead to deficiencies in micronutrients and trace elements.
Marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum health by boosting
and supporting all systems within the body. When the body is missing critical
components, it is unable to maintain the balance of these systems, and
malfunctions (disease) result. Scientific research indicates that
Marine Phytoplankton may be the most important food on Planet Earth. It
is nature's gift to assist us on our journey to optimal health and wellness
through balanced nutrition. "The future of Nutrition is found in
the ocean" - Jacques Cousteau more
Glyconutrients
/ Glyconutritionals / Saccharides - It's Role in People and Animals' Health
and Wellness
Glyconutrients are not vitamins, minerals, herbals, homeopathics or
enzymes. They are a class all to themselves. They are supplements derived
from nature that have been formulated based on a new understanding in biochemistry
of how our bodies maintain health at the cellular level. This new discovery
is as significant as the discovery of the role of vitamins, essential fatty
acids, and amino acids in how the body functions. Glyconutritionals
are the foods and nutritional supplements that provide saccharides along
with other glycoforms (lipids and proteins) essential to the body, but
which are scarce in most diets. Over 20,000 studies have been conducted
on individual glyconutrients, and virtually all of them have positive outcomes
and show great promise as healers of the future. Based on the knowledge
that the body can heal itself through cell to cell communication if given
the proper nutrients, glyconutrients are seen by many scientists and doctors
as the missing link to optimal health.
Healing with Holy
Thistle (Blessed Thistle) and Other Herbs
The use of blessed thistle commonly known as holy thistle (Carbenia
benedicta) has been recorded as far back as the early sixteenth century
for treating smallpox, fever, anorexia, dyspepsia, indigestion, constipation,
and flatulence. Monks often grew Blessed Thistle as a cure for small
pox. Historically, blessed thistle tea has been drunk for digestive problems,
liver and gall bladder problems, headache prevention, respiratory ailments,
memory improvement and external problems such as sores, boils and itchy
skin. The plant gained the title "blessed" for its use in treating plague.
Blessed thistle is also used as a strong but gentle liver tonic herb, promoting
metabolic activities in the liver cells and toxin elimination. Especially
noted as a tonic herb for women. Some individuals employ this herbs, as
they would its cousin milk thistle, as a remedy for gallbladder and liver
disorders. more
Healing
with Medicinal and Nutritional Herbs from the Amazon Rain Forest
Disease is a symptom of one or more body systems in distress. When
you nourish and balance the systems, you give your body what it requires
to resist, repair and overcome disease, and to achieve optimal health.
As living foods, these herbal remedies have the ability to support good
blood chemistry, balance energetic frequencies in the body, help cleanse
and detoxify, and more.
The spagyric
processing of the Amazon
herbs is based on ancient bio-energetic principles and is the most
perfect method available to deliver a full body treatment. John Easterling
had a vision of bringing nutritional vitality to the world and at the same
time helping preserve one of our greatest treasures, the Amazon Rainforest.
He searched for the perfect vehicle to do so and he found it in a 15th
century spagyric processing method that was designed to deliver the energetics
(life force) of the plants. He studied the process, sometimes referred
to as plant alchemy, and it was in alignment with what he wanted to provide.
It was the only known method that could bring forward the essential oil,
water soluble and mineral components (alkaline ash). The result is that
it retains the plants original constitution with more concentrated healing
potential than raw plants can provide. more
Many other herbs purchased at the store or from other companies do not
provide the same benefits as the Amazon
formulas. They frequently use the processing method of percolation.
They separate the three components, oils, liquids and plant fiber and reunite
the oils and liquids, discarding the plant material. In the matrix of that
plant material, called the mark, is the nutrition designed to nourish the
body. AmazonHerb herbal combinations are based
on those used by the Indigenous People of the Amazon for thousands of years
to maintain and optimize health, strength and stamina. They are the result
of a powerful blend of tribal wisdom and scientific verification that documents
and supports the beneficial properties of these botanicals.
Unlike most nutritional supplements on the market
today, the botanicals in Amazon Herb formulas have not been altered or
fractioned. They have not been extracted from their original composition.
These herbs are never
fumigated, irradiated, genetically engineered or exposed to pesticides
and industrial poisons. The integrity and life force of these plant is
maintained. They are living foods that work, just
as nature intended!

Salt Deficiency:
the cause of many serious diseases
When organic, unrefined
salt lack in your diet, weakness and sickness follow.
An abundance of the ingredients in unrefined real salt (not
common table salt) are as synonymous with life today as they were a billion
years ago before single cells appeared here. Lack of them is synonymous
with birth defects, organ failure, decay, diseases, premature aging and
death at a young age. more about real salt
A further look at healing with nature. Nature provides
us with a simple, straightforward system for regaining and maintaining
superb human health and beauty.
Healing with Food: Most human illnesses and diseases
are due to a deficiency of vital nutrients. When you supply your body with
the proper nutrients, in a form that your body can use, it knows how to
repair itself.
Healing through Fasting: Fasting is the world's
most ancient and natural healing mechanism.
Healing with Water: Hydrotherapy has been used
for centuries to heal the sick.
Healing with Sunlight: Sunlight helps the body
heal wounds and injuries and overcome virtually any illness.
Healing with Earth: Clay is renowned to have many
uses in promoting health in plants, animals and humans.
Healing with Plants: Plants have the power to supply
the bodies’ life force with the energies it needs to restore and maintain
health.
Healing with Urine: One of the most powerful, most
researched and most medically proven natural cures ever discovered.
Healing from the Hives: Bee pollen rejuvenates your
body, stimulates organs and glands, enhances vitality, and brings about
a longer life span.
Basic Healing Principles:
The body has an
innate capacity to heal itself. Self-healing can only occur once the cause
of
the illness has been eliminated. Why elimination of the symptom is NOT
the same as elimination of the disease? Physicians and surgeons
