drink it with water or juice before you leave for the beach, do the same when you come back home. If they are rancid, you will be feeding the cancer instead of healing your body. best wishes

Savoury and pritamin

Ilona Wright
 

Hi folks,
In recipe number 112 in the Oil-Protein cookbook, there is reference to
"savoury". Can anyone tell me what this is?

Also in the same recipe is mentioned "pritamin". Can anyone elaborate on
this?

Thank you in advance.

Re: Condensed Milk

Ilona Wright
 

Hi folks,
Recipe number 28 in the Oil-protein cookbook refers to "condensed milk".
Can anyone please tell me what this is?

In Australia condensed milk is a sickly sweet substance that I have only
ever used to make caramel cream with or add to coconut, chopped dried fruit
and chocolate, rolled into balls and coated with desiccated coconut to make
a sweet. One can contains more sugar than I would eat in 5 years, so I am
quite sure that this type of condensed milk is not meant to be in the BP.
Thank you in advance.

Re: MRI Contrasting- Hip Pain

JCastron
 

Don't know if my last and only one of two CT-Scans caused hip pain, however, I've solved the matter by a simple exercise at night. I suppose any time would do it.

Extend the leg out sideways then make a circular motion 20 time in one direction and 20 in the other.

Do it with both legs. Saw this on Mr. Rogers..............so it has to be good.

Important Question/Pulmonary Embolism

 

Hello All,
Shortly after my mother-in-law was diagnosed with cancer, they also found a pulmonary embolism. They immediately put her on Lovenox. She has been taking two shots in her belly everyday. The doctor wants her to keep on doing this. When we've mentioned that we are thinking of stopping the shots, they make us feel like it would be a HUGE mistake to do so.

We are doing BP 100% and we are haunted everyday with the fact that she is taking this medication, we are scared to death that it may be hindering the progress of the protocol or worse yet, making her condition worse.

In researching the drug online we found that it is metabolized in the liver (She has liver cancer). We don't want to strain her liver further yet at the same time we are afraid that the blood clot may also kill her....

The tumors on her liver are HUGE and we don't feel that we have the time to make any mistakes on this protocol.

I've searched past posts and only one person has ever brought up the drug and I did not see any replies to the question.

PLEASE HELP! We don't want to be harming her. We want to do whats best for her. Anyone with any knowledge of blood clots you input would be VERY much appreciated.

Kindest Regards,
Christine


Re: low iron ->Budwig foods high in iron

 

No weakness or fatigue.
Have never had prostate cancer, only Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Peed blood and clotted due to the BPH exacerbated by food irritants ie: hot sauce, peppers, alcohol, dark chocolate.
I do have: turmeric, spinach, broccoli and lentils and lots of varied beans.
Thanks for being there.

Hi Ramon,

Are you feeling weak and fatigued? That's usually how anemia affects
someone. I recall that in the past you have reported losing a
considerable amount of blood daily because of your prostate cancer.
Is that still happening?

Here's informaton from a website on high iron foods. Fill your diet
with these foods and your iron levels should increase.

What foods provide iron?
EXCELLENT food sources of iron include chard, spinach, thyme, and
turmeric.
VERY GOOD sources of iron include romaine lettuce, blackstrap
molasses, mustard greens, turnip greens, string beans, and shiitake
mushrooms.
GOOD sources of iron include lentils, Brussel sprouts, asparagus,
garbanzo beans, broccoli, leeks, and kelp.

Fear of doing the Budwig Diet only.

Cindy Becker
 

I read your messages every day, and find comfort in your thoughts. I
submitted a question last month for my husband who was diagnosed with
limited Stage IV Lung Cancer. The response made me go back and review
our daily routine and modify a couple areas my husband was slacking
on. For the last 30 days, I have made sure that he has implemented
all recommendations. Those areas were minor (drinking a glass of
fresh juice 2-3 a day, instead of once a day, also switching from
baking soda, to the organic sauerkraut juice). Other than that he is
100% on the Budwig Diet. It has been 3 months since the first x-ray
indicated something on his lung, which we assumed was pneumonia...
not. He was recommended to a local onocologist, who terrified both
of us. I have never met a professional who spoke so harshly against
nutrional therapy. He told us that my husband was to stop all,
because it could effect the chemo. When I asked how exactly it could
interfere, he said there wasn't any definite documentation,
but "they" preferred their patients to adhere to their requests.
Needless to say, we have not gone back. P.S. this doctor told my
husband that if he didn't do anything he would have 2-3 months to
live. We have just finished the third month, since this whole ordeal
began. Needless to say he is still alive and doing very well.

My husband is now a patient of a very good onocologist with the
Siteman Cancer Center in St. Louis. He is less closed minded to
nutritional therapy, but still makes his money on chemo. My husband
was to start chemo tommorow (Tuesday Aug 14), but has decided to push
it back. Where our fear lies is with the unknown. We both are
scared to death of chemo, not only from what we read in the
alternative sites, but from what we read in the American Cancer
Society sites. They do not do a great job on selling their theories.

We have an appointment with another doctor on Tuesday (Aug. 14) his
expertise lies within nutrional and "alternative" medicines. He is
highly respected and was actually recommended by my husband's current
onocologist. I guess our biggest fear is "are we doing the right
thing" when everyone around us is pushing for chemo.

If we are not under the care of a physician (onocologist) how can we
monitor my husband's progress? I guess like everyone else who faces
this disease, we are just looking for some encouragement. Not only
do the doctors question our judgement, but our family and friends
think we are endangering my husband's health. I know it is his life
and we have to stay strong, but a little help to build our confidence
would be greatly appreciated.

PS, regarding spending all your time caring for this disease, there
is only one alternative . . . I wouldn't change it for a moment.
Besides, being a chef in a restaurant, I spend approximately 16-18
hours a day working with food. I find Dr. Budwig's recommendations
intriquing and a challenge to experiment. You'd be amazed at the
variations you can create with her ingredients. The further I get
into them, I will share.

This group is a blessing, and helps me begin my day. Thank you.

Re: For unwell people - milk and eggs in the diet? [avoid eggs]

 

Hi Susan and all,

At times, we all may miss certain foods when they are no longer part
of our diet, but I do believe that this gets better over time. One
thing that I do is to associate the word "poison" with these foods.
If every time you think that you want eggs or cookies or other foods
that are unhealthy for you, you will think of them as poisons, it
will help. You will be retraining your mind to think of them in a way
that makes them not desirable to you. And, they ARE poisons for you
and for many people whether they have cancer or not. We all know that
animal fats in eggs and meats are associated with many diseases, as
is sugar and other foods on Dr. Budwig's 'forbidden' list.

Eggs are not in the protocol, Dr. Budwig said no animal fats [other
than in cheese]and on page 175 that you are quoting, under "Forbidden
for the unwell," she begins by saying, "Forbidden are all fats other
than flax seed oil and oleolux." That would include the fats in eggs
and meats. Just because she warns that eggs and bacon cooked in
lard are especially bad for a person, doesn't mean that eggs and bacon
would be ok if a fat other than lard were to be used. Some day, after
you have been well for a very long time, a few years, then you might
*occasionally* have some of the forbidden unhealthy foods, but if you
will continue to add more new recipes of Budwig foods to your diet,
you may be able to overcome any longings for these damaging foods.
Check our folder in the files that offers recipes from members. There
are some very good ones available giving lots of variety.

One member said to me that sometimes when she gives in and eats a
forbidden food, it doesn't really taste that good to her, then she
wonders why she wanted it. She said that maybe it's just the memory
of the food that makes her want it, not that it tastes so much better
than the foods in the Budwig diet plan.

When we think that we want these damaging, unhealthy foods, we have
to think, do I want to risk my life for a few bites of this particular
food. That's always the way to weigh the choice.

I find that if I have a craving for some particular unhealthy food,
creating a healthy subsitute with similar characteristics works to
satisfy me. If you're wanting eggs, you may really be wanting more
protein, have a few Brazil nuts and walnuts, or some hard cheese as a
snack, or combine the two [nut & cheese bites] and that may take care
of your desire.

Best wishes,
Sandra

Racheli Wrote:
Eggs are not on the protocol.
Hi Racheli -
On page 175 of Dr. B's cookbook she says:

"If one must eat out, it is very important to pay attention to the
right choice of fats. If the occasion arises, it is sometimes
possible to ask that dishes be prepared for you with OLEOLOX.
Within the framework of the oil-protein diet regimen, scrambled eggs
or fried eggs prepared with bacon or lard can cause problem."
I wonder if she meant that eggs without bacon or lard would be
okay. I know she said no animal fats, but did she specifically say,
somewhere else that eggs are not allowed? Maybe we could do some
eggs without oil, or with a little coconut oil. Or maybe add a
little oleolox after cooking or in the very last moments.
I would love to hear what you, Sandra and others have to say on
this. I was a cookieholic, but I miss eggs even more! Sure would
love to scramble them once in a while, or use in cooking. Maybe
once a month?
By the way, I went 10 days without coughing up blood!! Praise the
Lord. First time I've gone over 3 days since it started in April.
Then Sat. & Sun. just specks! Still feeling great! Can't wait to
see my Dr. again in late Sept. He will be amazed that I am still
around. Guess I should write a litter to Stanford Hospital too and
let them know how well the BP is doing! They will fall over!!

Dear Susan,

Your statement above is so exciting that I wanted to make a special
post about it rather than leave it in a message about eggs. This is
great news! I copied your message below from July 12th. In April, your
doctor gave you two months to live and now, on August 13th, you are
feeling great and have not coughed up blood from you lung tumors for
10 days. You've been on the Budwig protocol for four and a half
months. I am so happy for you!! The Budwig protocol and your
detemination are doing wonders to heal you. Congratulatons!!

Flax seed

Vilik Rapheles
 

Rhoda said ...

It begins to lose electrons slowly. It does not become rancid, it does not
lose food value so quickly. When I'm out and about, I grind mine, put it in
an airtight baggie, and place it in an ice sandwich.
Some immerse it in honey to keep air out, calling it linomel. Does that
prevent it from losing electrons? I don't know. I do know that it's just one
more step and unwanted extra calories. We all make choices in order to live
our lives.

Rhoda et al,

Then why did JB say it must be eaten within 10-15 minutes? I just read that
in her first book but don't have the reference handy.

Will the Budwig Protocol help in shrinking an hemangioma?

Hi there -

I have a 4.5cm liver hemangioma that is continuing to grow. If they

Does anyone have an opinion whether or not the Budwig diet could help

prostate cancer & Grape Seed Extract [GSE]

Jerome Mittelman
 

A number of the polyphenols naturally found in Grape Seed Extract
have the ability to impede the growth of and destroy prostate cancer
cells.

Several studies have documented the anticancer and chemopreventive
efficacy of Grape Seed Extract (GSE) against various cancers
including prostate cancer. GSE is a complex mixture of a group of
powerful polyphenols and a number of them have activity against
prostate cancer according to this new analysis that separated these
polyphenols and measured their individual abilities to inhibit the
growth of or ultimately destroy prostate cancer cells (of course many
times its not just the individual effects of food ingredients but
also the specific mix found in nature that gives them so much anti-
disease clout; an effect known as synergism where one and one adds up
to more than two). Three of the fourteen constituents measured
individually had a powerful impact on destroying prostate cancer
cells; this is not to say that the addition of the other eleven
doesn't bolster their effects. The research is published online ahead
of print in the journal Carcinogenesis. -- J. Hickey, RPh

Re: MRI Contrasting

 

Hi,
I don't really know what the risk is, but have a
connected question I'd like to ask the group.
The other day on TV I saw something about bone
problems resulting from the contrast dye used in CT
scans. I've had a lot of pain in my hips, the right
side particularly, and wondered if this is simply
arthritis, or if anyone else has experienced this pain
after several scans. I should note that I sleep on a
sleep number bed, with an additional magnet mattress
on top, and when I rise, there is no pain. But if I
nap on the couch, or sit too long anywhere other than
straight, the hip pain returns. Thanks for any info
you can supply
