Supporting Bone Marrow Adult Stem Cell Release Naturally
- Helping Your Body Heal Itself
 Most
of the cells in the human body are specialists assigned to a specific organ
or type of tissue, such as the neuronal cells that wire the brain and central
nervous system. Stem cells are different. When they divide, they can produce
either more stem cells, or they can serve as progenitors that differentiate
into specialized cells as they mature. Hence the name, because specialist
cells can "stem" from them. The potential to differentiate into specialist
cells whose populations in the body have become critically depleted as
the result of illness or injury is what makes stem cells so potentially
valuable to medical research. The idea is that if the fate of a batch of
stem cells could be directed down specific pathways, they could be grown,
harvested, and then transplanted into a problem area. If all went according
to plan, these new cells would overcome damaged or diseased cells, leading
to healing and recovery. "The life of a stem cell can be viewed as a hierarchical
branching process, where the cell is faced with a series of fate switches,"
Schaffer says. "Our goal is to identify the cell fate switches, and then
provide stem cells with the proper signals to guide them down a particular
developmental trajectory."
Stem cells have the remarkable potential to develop
into many different cell types in the body. Serving as a sort of repair
system for the body, they can theoretically divide without limit to replenish
other cells as long as the person or animal is still alive. When a stem
cell divides, each new cell has the potential to either remain a stem cell
or become another type of cell with a more specialized function, such as
a muscle cell, a red blood cell, or a brain cell.
When a stem cell divides, each new cell has the
potential to either remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with
a more specialised function. Scientists believe it should be possible to
harness this ability to turn stem cells into a super "repair kit" for the
body. Theoretically, it should be possible to use stem cells to generate
healthy tissue to replace that either damaged by trauma, or compromised
by disease. Among the conditions which scientists believe may eventually
be treated by stem cell therapy are Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's
disease, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, diabetes,
burns and spinal cord damage.
David A. Prentice, Ph.D. - "Within just
a few years, the possibility that the human body contains cells that can
repair and regenerate damaged and diseased tissue has gone from an unlikely
proposition to a virtual certainty. Adult stem cells have been isolated
from numerous adult tissues, umbilical cord, and other non-embryonic
sources, and have demonstrated a surprising ability for transformation
into other tissue and cell types and for repair of damaged tissues. This
paper will examine the published literature regarding the identity of adult
stem cells and possible mechanisms for their observed differentiation into
tissue types other than their tissue of origin. Reported data from both
human and animal studies will be presented on the various tissue sources
of adult stem cells and the differentiation and repair abilities for each
source, especially with regards to current and potential therapeutic treatments."

A group, led by Paul Frenette,
Associate Professor of Medicine at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, found
that the sympathetic—or “fight or flight” branch—of the nervous system
plays a critical role in coaxing bone marrow stem cells into the bloodstream.
Bone marrow cells known as hematopoietic stem cells are the source for
blood and immune cells. In normal individuals, the continuous trafficking
of the stem cells between the bone marrow and blood fills empty or damaged
niches and contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cell formation,
according to the researchers.
The Stem Cell Theory of Renewal
proposes that stem cells are naturally released by the bone marrow and
travel via the bloodstream toward cells in need. When an organ is subjected
to a challenge, this organ releases compounds that trigger the release
of stem cells from the bone marrow. The organ also releases compound that
attracts stem cells to this organ. The released stem cells then follow
the concentration gradient of these compounds and leave to blood circulation
to migrate in the organ where they proliferate and differentiate into cells
of this organ.
Stem
Cells Restore Memory in Mice
Experiments point to ways
to treat injury, stroke and even Alzheimer's, experts say
By Steven Reinberg, HealthDay
Reporter
A new U.S. study involving
mice suggests the brain's own stem cells may have the ability to restore
memory after an injury. These neural stem cells work by protecting existing
cells and promoting neuronal connections. In their experiments, a team
at the University of California, Irvine, were able to bring the rodents'
memory back to healthy levels up to three months after treatment. The finding
could open new doors for treatment of brain injury, stroke and dementia,
experts say.
"This is one of the first
reports that you can take a stem cell transplantation approach and restore
memory," said lead researcher Mathew Blurton-Jones, a postdoctorate fellow
at the university. "There is a lot of awareness that stem cells might be
useful in treating diseases that cause loss of motor function, but this
study shows that they might benefit memory in stroke or traumatic brain
injury, and potentially Alzheimer's disease."
In the study, published in
the Oct. 31 issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, Blurton-Jones and his
colleagues used genetically engineered mice that naturally develop brain
lesions. The researchers destroyed cells in a brain area called the hippocampus.
These cells are known to be vital to memory formation and it is in this
region that neurons often die after injury, the researchers explained.
To test the mice's memory, Blurton-Jones's group conducted place and object
recognition tests with both healthy mice and brain-injured mice.
Healthy mice remembered their
surroundings about 70 percent of the time, while brain-injured mice remembered
it only 40 percent of the time. For objects, healthy mice recalled objects
about 80 percent of the time, but injured mice remembered them only 65
percent of the time. The researchers then injected each mouse with about
200,000 neural stem cells. They found that mice with brain injuries that
received the stem cells now remembered their surroundings about 70 percent
of the time -- the same as healthy mice. However, mice that didn't receive
stem cells still had memory deficits.
The researchers also found
that in healthy mice injected with stem cells, the stem cells traveled
throughout the brain. In contrast, stem cells given to injured mice lingered
in the hippocampus. Only about 4 percent of those stem cells became neurons,
indicating that the stem cells were repairing existing cells to improve
memory, rather than replacing the dead brain cells, Blurton-Jones's team
noted. The researchers are presently doing another study with mice stricken
with Alzheimer's. "The initial results are promising," Blurton-Jones said.
"This has a huge potential, but we have to be cautious about not rushing
into the clinic too early."
One expert is optimistic
about the findings. "Putting in these stem cells could eventually help
in age-related memory decline," said Dr. Paul R. Sanberg, director of the
Center of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair at the University of South
Florida College of Medicine. "There is clearly a therapeutic potential
to this." Sanberg noted that for the process to work with Alzheimer's it
has to work with older brains. "There is clearly therapeutic potential
in humans, but there are a lot of hurdles to overcome," he said. "This
is another demonstration of the potential for neural stem cells in brain
disorders."
Stem
Cell nutritional "Enhancers" is a blend of two compounds extracted
from the aquatic botanical Aphanizomenon flos-aquae
(AFA). One extract, which contains an L-selectin ligand, supports the
release of stem cells (CD34+ cells) from the bone marrow. The other extract,
a polysaccharide-rich fraction named Migratose, may support the migration
of stem cells out of the blood into tissues.
The effect of Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers" on stem cells was tested in a triple-blind study. In brief,
volunteers rested for one hour before the first blood sample, which established
the baseline level in the number of circulating stem cells. After the first
blood samples, volunteers were given Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers"
or placebo. Thereafter, blood samples were taken at 30, 60 and 120 minutes
after taking the consumables. The number of circulating stem cells was
quantified by analyzing the blood samples using Fluorescence-Activated
Cell Sorting (FACS). Consumption of Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" triggered
a significant 25% increase in the number of circulating stem cells. One
gram of Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" triggers a significant 25-35%
increase in the number of circulating stem cells. The effect lasts for
a few hours. The recommended dosage is therefore 2 capsules once or twice
day, at least 6 hours apart.
The release of stem cells
from the bone marrow and their migration to tissues is a natural process
that happens everyday. Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" simply supports
that natural process and tips the balance toward health everyday. Stem
Cell nutritional "Enhancers" does not do anything that the body does not
already do everyday. So far, no instances of cancer or any similar problem
have ever been observed when using in vivo natural release of stem cells
from the bone marrow.
Triple-Blind Randomized Placebo-Controlled
Study of the Effect of Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" on Bone Marrow
Stem Cell Mobilization
Each day, stem cells in the
bone marrow evolve to produce red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
These mature cells are then released into the bloodstream where they perform
their vital life-supporting functions. When bone marrow stem cell activity
is interfered with, diseases such as anemia (red blood cell deficit), neutropenia
(specialized white blood cell deficit), or thrombocytopenia (platelet deficit)
are often diagnosed. Any one of these conditions can cause death if not
corrected.
Scientists have long known
that folic acid, vitamin B12, and iron are required for bone marrow stem
cells to differentiate into mature red blood cells.3-7 Vitamin D has been
shown to be crucial in the formation of immune cells,8-11 whereas carnosine
has demonstrated a remarkable ability to rejuvenate cells approaching senescence
and extend cellular life span.12-28
Other studies of foods such
as blueberries show this fruit can prevent and even reverse cell functions
that decline as a result of normal aging.29-36 Blueberry extract has been
shown to increase neurogenesis in the aged rat brain.37,38 Green tea compounds
have been shown to inhibit the growth of tumor cells, while possibly providing
protection against normal cellular aging.39,40
Based on these findings,
scientists are now speculating that certain nutrients could play important
roles in maintaining the healthy renewal of replacement stem cells in the
brain, blood, and other tissues. It may be possible, according to these
scientists, to use certain nutrient combinations in the treatment of conditions
that warrant stem cell replacement
These studies demonstrate
for the first time that various natural compounds can promote the proliferation
of human bone marrow cells and human stem cells. While these studies were
done in vitro, they provide evidence that readily available nutrients may
confer a protective effect against today’s epidemic of age-related bone
marrow degeneration.
Dr. Robert Sampson, MD
on stem cell nutrition - "... we have a product that has been shown and
demonstrated in the patent to increase the level of adult circulating stem
cells by up to 30%. It seems to me we're having a great opportunity here
to optimize the body's natural ability to create health."

Birth,
Life and Death of Neurons
The human brain consists
of an estimated 10 trillion individual neurons or nerve cells, each intricately
interconnected with thousands of its neighbours via tendril-like projections
called dendrites. The basic circuitry of the central nervous system - the
brain and the spinal cord - is already in place when we are born. For most
of this century, scientists believed that the number of neurons in the
central nervous system is essentially fixed at birth, and that neurons
are not renewed or replaced in an individual's lifetime. Folk wisdom tells
us our brains begin to die from the moment we are born - we begin to lose
neurons in our late teens, and the rate of loss accelerates as we age.
It is now clear that both scientific and folk wisdom were wrong. In the
early 1990s, a team led by Dr Bartlett at the Hall Institute made a seminal
discovery: the mammalian brain is not static, but possesses a self-renewing
population of neuronal stem cells capable of dividing and forming new neurons.
The most exciting implication of their discovery is that it might one day
be possible to repair brains damaged by stroke, or by degenerative diseases
like Alzheimer's disease,
motor neuron disease or Parkinson's disease
Stem
cells and aging: expanding the possibilities
The possibility that a decline
in the numbers or plasticity of stem cell populations contributes to aging
and age-related disease is suggested by recent findings. The remarkable
plasticity of stem cells suggests that endogenous or transplanted stem
cells can be ‘tweaked’ in ways that will allow them to replace lost or
dysfunctional cell populations in diseases ranging from neurodegenerative
and hematopoietic disorders to diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
As you age, the number and
quality of stem cells that circulate in your body gradually decrease, leaving
your body more susceptible to injury and other age-related health challenges.
Just as antioxidants are important to protect your cells from “free radical”
damage, Stem Cell "Enhancers" are equally important to support your stem
cells in maintaining proper organ and tissue functioning in your body.
When you take two capsules
of the Stem Cell Enhancers product, the ingredients help to support the
release of stem cells from the bone marrow into the bloodstream.
Through a natural process, those stem cells then travel to areas of the
body where they are most needed. Effectiveness of th Stem Cell Enhancers
was demonstrated in a triple-blind study. Volunteers rested for one hour
before establishing baseline levels. After the first blood samples, volunteers

A fundamental breakthrough
in our understanding of nervous system development was the identification
of multipotent neural stem cells (neurospheres) about ten years ago. Dr.
Weiss and colleagues showed that EGF (epidermal growth factor) dependent
stem cells could be harvested from different brain regions at different
developmental stages and that these could be maintained over multiple passages
in vitro. This initial finding has lead to an explosion of research on
stem cells, their role in normal development and their potential therapeutic
uses. Many investigators have entered this field and the progress made
has been astounding.

Sheng Ding Ph.D Assistant
Professor Department of Chemistry
The main research focus of
my laboratory is to develop and integrate chemical and functional genomic
tools to study stem cell biology and regeneration. Over the past few years,
we have constructed large combinatorial chemical libraries (>100,000 small
molecules) and arrayed cDNA (>30,000 human and mouse genes) and RNAi (targeting
over 16,000 human and mouse genes with more than three designed sequences
per gene) libraries. Furthermore we have developed and implemented high
throughput cellular screens of these libraries to identify small molecules
and genes which can control stem cell fate in various systems (including
pluripotent embryonic stem cells, multipotent adult neural stem cells and
mesenchymal stem cells, and lineage-restricted somatic cells), as well
as modulate specific signaling pathways. Moreover, biochemical and cellular
studies, including genome-wide expression analysis using Affymetrix microarrays,
affinity chromatography for target identification, and cDNA and/or RNAi
complementation screens to map signaling pathway, are being used to characterize
the molecular mechanism of these identified small molecules and genes.
Those studies may ultimately facilitate the therapeutic application of
stem cells and the development of small molecule drugs to stimulate tissue
and organ regeneration in vivo.
Neuronal
Miswiring - Williams Syndrome and LIMK1
Individuals with a rare,
inherited neurological disorder called Williams Syndrome
suffer from mental retardation and an inability to visualise objects mentally
- when asked to describe an everyday object such as a bus in their "mind's
eye", for example, they may see it as a disconnected set of features, like
scattered fragments of a jigsaw puzzle.
Williams Syndrome, which
appears to be caused by mis-wiring of the brain during embryonic development,
has been genetically linked to the loss of a gene called LIMK1. Consistent
with its role in a neurological disorder, the LIMK1 protein is expressed
chiefly in nerve cells, but is also present in the nuclei and cytoplasm
of most other cells. Dr Ora Bernard has found that the loss of both copies
of LIMK1 from the genome of mice results in the death of the mutant embryos.
In Williams Syndrome, only one locus of LIMK1 has been lost - usually,
two copies of every gene are present in the genome, one from each parent.
Dr Bernard and her collaborators
have recently discovered that LIMK1 is intimately involved in the regulation
of the actin cytoskeleton. This cellular organelle is one part of the apparatus
that helps cells assume shapes appropriate for their environment; the other
is the tubulin cytoskeleton. The two cytoskeletal systems are also required
for the locomotion of cells, their division and for making cell to cell
connections, roles of great importance in the way cells respond to their
environmen more

Multiple
Sclerosis - the odd one out?
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is
a chronic, often disabling neurological disease of the central nervous
system (CNS) - the brain and spinal cord. It involves the degeneration
of the fatty myelin sheath that surrounds neurons in the CNS. The myelin
sheath, produced by specialised cells called oligodendrocytes, normally
facilitates transmission of nerve impulses in the CNS by electrically insulating
nerves from the surrounding environment. In MS, patches of scar tissue
form and may permanently impair nerve transmission. Multiple sclerosis
is currently incurable, and its cause is unknown. It has traditionally
been regarded as an autoimmune disorder, like insulin dependent diabetes
and rheumatoid arthritis. But that view is now under question, according
to Dr Trevor Kilpatrick.
Dr Kilpatrick says that while
MS appears to have an auto-immune component, it may
be a secondary phenomenon - a sequel to a more fundamental cause. A pointer
to this possibility, he says, is that immunosuppressive drugs like cyclosporin,
cyclophosphamide and azothioprine, which can alleviate rheumatoid arthritis
and slow the onset of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, are ineffective
therapies for multiple sclerosis.

The
Proteus Effect: Stem Cells and Their Promise for Medicine Arguably
the most exciting, promising and controversial medical research being performed
today explores the potential of stem cells, unique cells that, when dividing,
can produce either more cells like themselves or other specialized cells,
such as heart cells, skin cells and neurons. Stem cells research is bringing
the promise of regenerative medicine and miracle cures for such conditions
as multiple sclerosis, blindness, heart damage and male pattern baldness.
Blood Stem cells: 25 Trillion blood cells exist in the blood and every
second 2 million blood cells die and are replaced. Researcher found
that mice with defective bone marrow (damaged by radiation) could be restored
by translates of marrow stem cells injected directly in the blood. The
bone marrow transplant in essence restored the bone marrow stem cells to
functional and normal status.
Stem
Cell Research is aimed at the potential that certain types of cells,
called stem cells, have for regenerating damaged tissue in the body. A
stem cell is capable of developing into other types of cells, like liver
cells, heart cells, etc. Current medical research is focused on two particular
types of stem cells, embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Of the
three types of stem cells, two are able to develop into any type of cell
within the human body. These two are called totipotent and pluripotent.
The third type of stem cell is more limited in it's potential and can only
develop into a small number of other types of cells. Stem cells can be
thought of as "master cells". You've probably heard about the controversy
of embryonic stem cells in the news. Stem cells are found in human embryos,
umbilical cords (mothers can donate their cords for this purpose) but are
also found in adult tissue. Adult stem cells are most abundantly found
in bone marrow. Stem cells circulate and function to replace dysfunctional
cells, thus fulfilling the natural process of maintaining optimal health.

are some different types of stem cells?

Glyconutrients
and Stem Cell
Dr. Reg McDaniel talks about
first seeing new stem cells in the peripheral blood of clients using glyconutrients
many years ago and not recognizing these cells as stem cells. They were
10 times the size of white blood cells and they were given the name "Gee"
cells for some time as that's what Dr. Reg said when he observed these
new cells that no one could identify! Now we have the tools to identify
these cells appropriately as stem cells which can be used as "master keys"
to move to places in the body as the body calls for. About a year ago there
was an article in JAMA regarding the stem cells implants of male cells
into female bodies of women with leukemia who had received a stem cell
transplant. When these women died, male marked cells were found as neurons
in the brain.
Dr. Reg realized that this
might offer an explanation in the many children with fetal alcohol syndrome
that were doing so well with the glyconutrients
and others who had advanced so far beyond their perceived genetic limitations.
He told the story of several adopted aboriginal children in Canada who
had fetal alcohol syndrome who have done remarkably well, improving from
IQ's estimated to be around 50 to levels around 100. One girl who had difficulties
with reading and numbers and was in remedial classes after 3 years with
glyconutrients was able to read a Harry Potter book in a week and discuss
what she had read.
When they measure the before
and after stem cell counts in the blood, virtually none are detectable
prior to glyconutrieints. Within a week of giving glyconutrients, there
are 200-400 stem cells seen in a microliter of blood with about 5-10 thousand
white blood cells. If one extrapolates to the whole body, it is possible
that there are 1.7-3 trillion new stem cells throughout our body as we
add in glyconutrients. We're at the beginning of understanding all of what
is possible with stem cells. There is an article in the June Scientific
American if you want to read more about stem cells.

 As
they do in humans, adult stem cells reside in animals bone marrow, where
they are released whenever there is a problem somewhere in the body. Looking
back on stem cell research, we realize that most studies have been done
with animals, mostly mice, but also with dogs, horses, pigs, sheep and
cattle. These studies have revealed that animal stem cells conduct themselves
the same way human stem cells do. When there is an injury or a stress to
an organ of your beloved pet or horse, compounds are released that reach
the bone marrow and trigger the release of stem cells. The stem cells then
travel to tissues and organs in need of help to regain optimal health.

FAQ
What
is the difference between Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae
(AFA) and Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers"?
AFA is the whole plant,
the whole food. The AFA extracted polysaccharides that make up Stem
Cell nutritional "Enhancers" are 100% natural, no chemical, and is cold
processed. The reason that a person would want to take the Stem Cell
nutritional "Enhancers" in addition to the AFA is to create a greater movement
of the bodys' own Stem Cells and to help the body heal itself. A person
could achieve the same health benefits from AFA but would need to take
higher amounts of AFA over a longer period of time to achieve these results.
AFA is very nutritious at the cellular level which has great healing effects
to the entire body. Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" stimulates
the bone marrow to release stem cells. As we age and get older, the
Stem Cells are less viable and don't move as easy. They are attached
to the bone marrow by an L-selectin ligand. Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers" creates them to break free and to circulate in higher numbers.
Our body has to have stem cell movement to repair itself. A stem
cell is pluripotent. Meaning that if it goes to the liver, it becomes
a liver cell. If it goes to the brain, it becomes a brain cell. So
as each cell in the body dies and new ones are made, it is critical to
have healthy cells to replace them (AFA does this at
the cellular level) and it is important to keep the stem cells moving in
great numbers for faster healing (Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers".)
Why
may Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" be contraindicated for people on
anticoagulant therapy?
One gram of Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers" contains roughly half of the recommended daily allowance in
vitamin K. Vitamin K is an essential nutrient playing an important role
in the process of blood coagulation. However, when one experiences cardiovascular
problems, oftentimes doctors will elect to put a one of anticoagulant therapy
in order to prevent blood clot and make it easier for the heart to pump
blood through the body. Since vitamin K promotes blood coagulation, it
is customary to tell people to avoid vitamin K while being on anticoagulant
therapy. This being said, it is not so much the presence of vitamin K in
the diet as much as the consistency in the daily intake. Therefore, the
best approach is to discuss with your doctor about your desire to take
Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers", that it contains vitamin K, and the
anticoagulant prescription can be adjusted through careful monitoring of
your condition by your doctor.
Can
Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" be taken with other drugs?
As far as we have studied
and researched, the only possible interaction is with antidepressant medications,
as Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" contains phenylethylamine (PEA), a
compound naturally produced by the brain that affect dopamine and norepinephrine
in the brain. PEA is known for its effect on mood elevation and mental
energy. Intereactions with antidepressant medications have not been reported,
but the possibility exists. People should consult their doctor before taking
Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" if they are on antidepressant medication.
Has
any study shown that people improved their health as a result of taking
it?
Numerous empirical reports
and testimonials testify to the health benefits of taking Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers". Many companies have been shut down by the FDA because of inferred
health claims linked to documentation of improvements with various diseases.
We intend to maintain our message clearly within the boundaries of the
Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act, and let Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers" speaks for itself. We would be delighted to provide Mr. Barrett
with a few bottles of Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" so he can see the
benefits on his own health.

Pascalite, as well as other types of healing clays, have been used by indigenous
cultures since before recorded history. "The
Native Americans call it "Ee-Wah-Kee" meaning "The-Mud-That-Heals"
Bentonite, as well as other types of healing clay, has been used by indigenous
cultures since before recorded history. "The Amargosians (predecessors
to the Aztecs ), the Aborigines, and natives of Mexico and South America
all recognized the benefit of clays. " "...healing mud not only draws toxic
material out of the body if taken internally, but also reduces pain and
infection in open wounds on both humans and animals."

Wheatgrass juice is the
nectar of rejuvenation, the plasma of youth, the blood of all life.
Most people who have explored
the wondrously wide avenues of self-healing have heard about wheatgrass.
Wheatgrass juice has been proven over many years to benefit people in numerous
ways: cleansing the lymph system, building the blood, restoring balance
in the body, removing toxic metals from the cells, nourishing the liver
and kidneys and restoring vitality. One ounce of wheatgrass juice has
the vitamin and mineral equivalent of 2.2 pounds of fresh vegetables. It
contains most of the vitamins and minerals needed for human maintenance,
including the elusive B12. Many of the benefits of wheatgrass juice stem
from the fact that it is a living food, which is a complete protein with
about 30 enzymes and is approximately 70% crude chlorophyll.
Transfer
Factors And The Immune System
Transfer factors are tiny
molecules found in colostrum which provide "immune knowledge" from a mother's
immune system to her baby used in recognizing and fighting outside threats.
By transferring information from cell to cell, transfer factors serve as
"teachers" to the new cells, ensuring a strong immune system capable of
surviving, even thriving, in its new environment. There are over 3,000
published papers and 50 years of research on transfer factors. 4Life Research™
has thousands of case reports on the effectiveness of Transfer Factor and
Transfer Factor Plus. Recent in vitro and in vivo studies on Transfer Factor
Plus documented an increase in Natural Killer cell activity.by 283% and
437% respectively, over baseline immune response. The NK cell is the animal's
first line of defense against many pathogens... bacteria, viruses, parasites,
and of course malignant tumor cells.
Profound
Life-Giving Properties of Marine Phytoplankton
Seawater contains every
mineral and trace mineral known in organic form and in the proper ratios
needed by human tissues. Dr. René Quinton, French biologist/physiologist,
proved that pure seawater is virtually identical to mammalian blood plasma.
With the assistance of many eminent physicians, he successfully used seawater
as a healing agent on thousands of patients in France and Egypt in the
early 1900s. Navy doctors successfully used seawater during the Second
World War when blood serum supplies ran out. Marine Phytoplankton
offers full Spectrum 72 natural ionic sea trace minerals, the the benefits
of getting 200+ ocean vegetables in your diet every day - Amino Acids,
Vitamins, Essential Fatty Acids, Enzymes, and much more
Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D.
says that marine phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to
sustain life and to restore health by providing the raw materials to make
new cells that function normally. Marine phytoplankton has been called
"the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Containing a wide range
of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, enzymes
and cellular materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum
health by boosting and supporting all systems within the body. Its antioxidants
and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations that can lead
to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens increase energy
and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use oxygen. Adaptogens
also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening the heart and circulation.

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 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 the Sea:
There is no family of foods more protective against radiation and environmental
pollutants than sea vegetables.
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.
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 illness?
Physicians and surgeons
palliate
symptoms instead of removing
causes
  What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why are
a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the world
questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands of deaths
and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually, as well
as the many published medical studies, government statistics, congressional
testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly
held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.

a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes rates rose significantly
in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B vaccine campaign in young
children, and that diabetes rates also went up sharply in Finland after
three new childhood vaccines were introduced." Nicholas

In fall 1997, two influential
professional magazines featured articles asking the question: Has the decrease
of infectious illness in childhood through the mass use of vaccines been
replaced with an increase in chronic illness such as diabetes and asthma?
The Economist, a prestigious international magazine read by world leaders
in government, business and public policy, and Science News, a magazine
read by both health care professionals and the general public, explored
the reported links between vaccines and chronic illness in their November
22, 1997 issues. Learn more about vaccine
and diabetes connection --- asthma and vaccine connection ---
SIDS and autism and vaccine connection --- "Shaken Baby Syndrome":
the vaccination link One hundred years ago, children received 1 vaccine
(the smallpox vaccine). Forty years ago, children received 5 vaccines routinely
(diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, polio, and smallpox vaccines) and as many
as 8 shots by 2 years of age. Children now receive 52 vaccines, in the
form of 15 shots, by the time they are 6 months of age if they receive
all the recommend shots, including the Prevnar pediatric pneumonia shot.
Congressman is calling
for criminal penalties for any government agency that knew about the dangers
of thimerosal in vaccines and did nothing to protect American children.
Congressman
Dan Burton (R-Indiana) during Congressional Hearing: "You mean to
tell me that since 1929, we've been using Thimerosal, and the only
test that you know of is from 1929, and every one of those people had mennigitis,
and they all died?" For nearly an hour, Burton repeatedly asked FDA and
CDC officials what they knew and when they knew it. (Thimerosal contains
a related mercury compound called ethyl mercury. Mercury is a toxic metal
that can cause immune, sensory, neurological, motor, and behavioral dysfunctions.)

Vaccination: Is it really safe and effective? Most
recently, an article appeared in the Journal of the American Veterinary
Medical Association entitled "Are We Vaccinating Too Much?"
Soldiers Ordered Inoculated
Against Biological Threat Claim Harsh Side Effects."...But soon after
his first inoculation in February, the 29-years-old Mr. Nietupski showed
up at an urgent -care facility with sores all over his mouth and throat.
"The side of my tongue was all raw with little canker sores, and bloody
mucus was coming out of my nose, " Mr. Nietupski says. His maladies, ultimately
diagnosed as an autoimmune disorder in which his body accidentaly attacked
itself, grew worse as he got the next two installements of the six-shot
regime. Mr. Nietupski and several of the doctors who have examined him,
believe the anthrax vaccine caused his severe reaction and may also be
to blame for the blood clots Mr. Nietupski experienced in his legs
months later."
