Toasted, roasted and fried in oil! I swear, there's an FDA representative on the board who keeps everyone in check. Even mention anything non-"evidence based" and you'll get your head handed to you on a cardboard platter. I would approach any illness like a marathon. Get in shape, for cryin' out loud! Stop smokin', drinkin', and get your ass out there and start movin' if you want to stay alive. Instead, it's "where do I go to stick my arm out; gimme your best chemicals." I don't get it. Nope, I sure don't.

Re: Interesting data about sunshine
Unfortunately, Dr. Holick's studies, underwritten by the tanning
industry, may cause more damage than lack of vitamin D every could. Our society is already becoming tanaholic... and the incidences of melanoma are rising rapidly. As a stage III melanoma patient, I urge you not to spread that article around to people who would interpret it to mean that getting a tan is healthy. A tan is the body's way of reacting to sun damage. UV Rays (A and B) are toxic. Be careful not to overexpose yourself. There are other ways to get vitamin D. --- In FlaxSeedOil2@..., "skpound" <skpound@y...> wrote: I'm currently doing Dr. Lorraine Day's anti-cancer program inof the 10 steps of Dr. Day's program is getting some sunlight eachday.

been on the flaxseed oil protocol for about two months as a preventive measure. I injured by knee playing tennis years ago and have worn a knee elastic band for years. Probably 15 years or so. I could not walk to the bath room first thing in the morning without a slight limp. I cannot explain it but about three weeks ago I noticed my knee not hurting and no discomfort. I have not worn my knee band now for about three weeks and cannot believe how it feels. I can only explain that since I started the FO/CC that something has happened to my knee. After 15 years of discomfort without the elastic knee band what can I say. I take FO/CC religiously every day. I also noticed several early morning "old age aches and pains" are gone. Taking FO/CC cannot hurt you. You have nothing to loose and everything to gain. Follow the plan, don't change anything and after three to four weeks you be the judge. Ed -----Original Message-----

PROSTATE SIZE REDUCTION WITHOUT DRUGS
DIET OVERHAUL!!!!!!
Will reduce your prostate inflammation, not drugs. Speaking from my own experience,,,,, I no longer: Dribble after peeing. Suffer from ejaculation jet lag. Run to the WC (water closet) in a frenzy. Carry a jar by my side in the car. Get up 2 + Xs (plus times) throughout the night with urgencies to urinate. My bladder still does not empty first time around, and by pressing repeatedly below stomach, backflushing and kegeling I've shown improvement. (from a weak to a strong stream) Processed foods, alcohol, spicy salsa, coffee, carbonated drinks, and downing 3 + beers to name a few will cause me to tailspin, and bring back the bad old days. Also, sugar is a killer if you let it get out of hand. Exercise 3-5 Xs weekly, watch your weight (BMI 19-24) Stay within range of all your lab work. Incorporate Flax oil (Barlean's) blended with cottage cheese daily. Just like it worked for me so can it work for you. Hang in with us & your system will reward you with improved good health. ¸é²¹³¾¨®²Ô [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

Coffee will deplete the necessary 'B' vitamins used in the conversion/elongation of the omega 3s. However if you were to compensate for loss of 'B' vitamins or take FO/CC at a different time, you might not 'stop the Budwig from ridding cancer'?

Roy,
I would avoid coffee. It is not in the Budwig Diet. If you want to get well on this Diet or on any nutritional program, you try to optimize in everything you eat, drink or do. Here is a website on coffee (there may be better ones): Wilhelm Hi It's amazing the number ofn questions that spring to mind, I wondered if one could drink an occasional black coffer or would this perhaps stop the Budwig from ridding the cancer Regards Roy |
A note to the moderator
cathcoy
Immediately after posting my "Request for Testimony," I realized that
the "Files" section of this group contains a wealth of information-- practically exactly what I asked for, except that there are no testimonials for melanoma. I think, then, that you can disregard my previous post as I believe I'll get my answers from "Files." Many thanks. |

My personal situation is one of watchful waiting. Almost two years ago, I was treated for breast cancer -- chemo, radiation, surgery -- and am keeping the Budwig protocol on the back burner in case it is needed. In the meantime, I take 3 T of freshly ground flax seed everyday and make sure to get my sunlight. Take care, BarbF |
fo/cc and digestion
Barb
When I have the flaxseed oil and yogurt, it takes
me a while to digest it!!! It kills my appetite. Is that because fats take longer to digest? I am using more yogurt than necessary. It makes the flaxseed oil go down better. However I have never had trouble with yogurt before so assuming it's the flaxseed oil. I am using the lignant type but I am not adding the actual flaxseed yet. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo! Mail with you! Get it on your mobile phone. |
Re: F/O and Champagne for the extremely ill
Paul Cates
This is where I red about the use of alcohol being used to transport
nutrients. "Resveratrol :- Red Wine, Richest source ¨C Hu Zhang or Japanese Knotweed. Resveratrol ¨C research at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Centre in 1998 showed Resveratrol to be a powerful COX-2 inhibitor and an inhibitor of cancer promotion. MSK and Cornell Medical Centre later noted that in human breast cancer cells and malignant oral tissue, resveratrol worked in a two fold way ¨C it inhibited the cellular expression of the COX-2 gene and also inhibited the actual enzyme activity of COX-2. As breast cancer cells and usually prostate cancer cells are hormone dependent, it is possible that resveratrol could have a similar impact on CaP. A report from the New York Medical College indicated that resveratrol triggered apoptosis [programmed cell death] in Prostate Cancer cells. Unfortunately my `source' did not indicate whether the study was in vitro or in vivo. University of Illinois researchers reported in `Science' that resveratrol stops cancer Initiation and Promotion and in Leukaemia it promotes differentiation. National Univ. of Taiwan researchers found that resveratrol stops production of NFkB which inflames tissues surrounding the tumour. Problem for men getting stuck into the red wine is that the alcohol provides a lot of calories ¨C not what you need if you are trying to restrict calories to stimulate one's immune system. The alcohol also creates a lot of free-radicals that can nullify other cancer fighting anti-oxidants that one might be taking. On the other hand as one ages , the portals in the blood vessels through the liver tend to close up making it more difficult for large fat molecules to get through for processing in the liver. up these portals .<<<<< The strategy should be no more than twoApparently a small amount of alcohol regularly consumed can open standard glasses of red wine per day and not just at one time. Spread the wine consumption. It is possible to obtain powdered red wine marc that has the resveratrol and the other polyphenols but no alcohol. [ `The Red Wine Affair' produced by Hilde Hemmes ¨C Herbal Supplies Limited, Ridgehaven, can be obtained through Health Shops ¨C powder equivalent to 74 glasses of wine for about $25.] On the other hand, men who have forms of heart disease that include significant numbers of weakened heart cells, should think twice about consuming significant amounts of resveratrol. University of Minnesota researchers noted that resveratrol tends to activate the p53 gene which acts as a sort of `molecular patrolman' telling cells to self destruct when things go wrong. This is great for CaP if you have a cancer where p53 is mutated so that it does not operate properly. Unfortunately this also just might `gee up' the p53 genes in the weakened cells in your heart condition leading to the destruction of the cells and a massive heart attack."

Re: Can one drink the occasional black coffee
I think that you can drink coffee. One can go overboard with all this stuff.
Some of the healthiest people in the world are the French and Japanese; the French drink coffee and the Japanese drink tea, both of which have caffiene. Coffee does not give people cancer. |

Hi Mike,
how very sad that Jose passed away. He seemed to be doing so well with your help and the Budwig Diet. But as you said previously, he was likely to be talked into taking chemo by the doctor whom he trusted. Well, we all have to make our choices. Thank you for sharing his story with us. As to your next post on this topic, I don't know the exact purpose for using champagne in the treatment of people with advanced cancer. All I remember reading is that Dr.Budwig said in one of her books that she had been criticised for giving champagne to sick people, but that it had a "serious purpose". She didn't elaborate. I assumed it had to do with stimulating appetite, but there is probably more to it. Regards, Wilhelm PS: Mir geht es gut, danke. I hope you are well too. HI Group (Wie gehts Wilhelm?), I haven't posted in a while but I thought this may be of interest. My friend Jose passed away last Sunday most likely due to the effects of a chemo-regimen his doctor talked him to getting. The Dr. swore this was the ONLY way he would be able to travel to Spain to see his family. A week later the "Dr." turned him over to Hospice and went on vacation! Prior to this Jose was 'holding his own'. As he lay in bed, he reminded me of "E.T"- bony chest and arms and a big swollen belly- the ascites (fluid) was terrible and his testacles looked like 2 pink water balloons. On Friday,I knew he was dying (he couldn't eat because of all the narcotics they were giving him), and I thought of Dr. Budwig's proceedure using 8 oz. of FO, some raw honey and champagne for "in extremis" patients. So I bought a bottle of champagne (wondering what the hospice people would say)and talked the nurse into letting me see if he would take it. She got interested and we decided to give him 2 oz. of oil, a little honey, and about 5 oz of champagne (just stirred it all up in a glass- a gross looking 2-layer concoction). He did manage to keep it down and said it tasted good! (I think I would mix the oil and honey-let them sip it, then give a champagne chaser-next time though). I left for work and the nurse said she would repeat it before her shift was up and tell the next nurse to continue the proceedure. I returned about midnight and found out the other shifts thought this was "nuts" and stopped giving it to him- put an IV morphine line in his arm instead- at this point there were alot of his friends here and I didn't say anything-just accepted this was the end-he died early the next day-just as I got there by the way. Anyway, a few days later I ran into a woman who used to be a customer of mine when I was practising community pharmacy. She was helping to look after Jose (as part of a mediation group Jose belonged to). She told me that about 2 hours after the second "dose" of the FO/Champagne, Jose voided 1100 ML of fluid! We both thought 'what if' we could have continued with the treatment. Once again Dr. Budwig's brillance astounds me. You know most people would look at a person in Jose's condition and say 'he's a goner', yet I remembered the pictures of Civil War soldiers from Andersonville or the liberated prisoners of Auschwitz and they looked like that (or worse) yet many survived. The human body is truly a remarkable creation and when given the right nutrition is capable of remarkable things. Poisons beget death-I wonder why this is such an alien concept to "learned medical minds"- a second grader can tell you that! Jose had 7 months (instead of 3 weeks-that he was told in January) and I cherish the time we got to know each other.

If I ever get another opportunity to help some one with this protocol, I will be a better "coach" thanks to my experience with Jose. Regards to all, Mike |
CLA
Paul Cates
After more study on CLA in the diet, I have decided not to add it to
my list of supplements. My Doctor was the one that suggested it. Going back and researching it further, I find that is not necessary to human consumption and might even be harmful. I had previously read a report from Udo Erasmus, that CLA would create a balance in the Omega 3 - Omega 6 faster (in the good direction) and that sounded good. Since then, I have read reports that it may act differently in humans than the animal studies done. I would hate for it to deter the progress already made by the FO/CC and I am returning to suggested levels of fo/cc and fs and without CLA. pc |
