Story at-a-glance
- The medical profession has a long history of opposing alternative healing professions. The rules of engagement have changed; as the AMA is finding new “legal” ways to discredit and limit practitioners of natural medicine
- Alternative healthcare professionals such as chiropractors, naturopaths, and midwives have been targeted by the American Medical Association (AMA) for nearly a century, in spite of a federal court injunction against the AMA in 1987 for illegally trying to create a monopoly in the healthcare market
- Other medical associations have joined forces to manipulate the public into believing natural medicine is quackery by spreading propaganda and mistruths

(This, Coming from a Canadian! [Bev]– Kermit)
*************
By Marni Wasserman | Chatelaine – Thu, 10 Nov, 2011
At this time of the year, our bodies seem to just yearn for a warm drink in our hands. Herbal tea is always a healthy option when you want something to warm you up – but sometimes you just crave something extra, whether it’s something sweet, stimulating, or just really flavourful.
With coffee shops on every corner of most towns, it’s hard not to pop in for something toasty and indulgent. However, be cautious – what might seem like a great option to help get you through your day could actually be hiding a lot of calories, along with other properties that are not that great for your health.
Let’s consider four very common warm drinks that people enjoy at this time of year – coffee, chai tea, apple cider, and hot chocolate – and see how you can make the healthiest choices about caffeine and sugar while still enjoying your favourite beverage. (more…)

MERCURY -- BLEEAAHH!!
You may have heard that the US Department of State (DOS) is taking action on the hazardous mercury that’s all around us. But not much action…
DOS has made its position clear on mercury at a public meeting led by Deputy Special Representative Dr. John Thompson.
He says the DOS will tackle mercury in amalgam fillings...but not anytime soon.
“There is enough evidence about this issue to phase it DOWN,” says Dr. Thompson. But he stresses that…”we don’t mean phase OUT.”
That phase down won’t begin until 2020 at the earliest…and possibly as late as 2030.
So…why the delay? (more…)

Just a decade ago, you’d have been hard pressed to find coconut oil in your health food store. Now it sits alongside favorites like extra-virgin olive oil. So what happened? In the 1980s, consumers were warned of the evils of fats, especially saturated animal fats and tropical oils. Today, fats are no longer demonized. We also know that most of the older, negative research on coconut oil used partially hydrogenated blends that contained trans fatty acids. And of course, trans fatty acids are never a healthy option.
Unprocessed virgin coconut oil, on the other hand, consists mostly of lauric acid, a medium-chain triglyceride that confers several health benefits. Coconut oil lends a unique flavor to sautéed foods, and it’s an excellent substitute for butter or margarine in baking. It does not, I repeat, does not raise cholesterol, clog arteries, or pose any other cardiovascular risk. Studies suggest that it enhances immune function and, when used in therapeutic doses, may improve symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.
Coconut Oil and Ketones
How in the world could an inexpensive oil facilitate such a turnaround? It’s all about ketones. Medium chain triglycerides don’t behave like the more common long chain fats. Thanks to their shorter chemical structure, they are easily absorbed and rapidly metabolized in the liver. And rather than being stored as fat, they are converted into ketones.
Ketones are your body’s alternative energy source. When glucose stores are exhausted, ketones are synthesized from fats and delivered to the cells, where they’re burned for energy. But because glucose is the preferred fuel, ketones are produced only as a backup—when you’re fasting, for example, or eating a very low-carbohydrate diet. (This is the principle behind the Atkins’ weight loss program.)
Coconut Oil for Neurodegenerative Disease
Coconut oil isn’t only an asset in healthy cooking,I’m now recommending ketone therapy for all of my patients with Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, dementia, multiple sclerosis, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), and other neurodegenerative disorders. There is evidence to suggest that it may also be beneficial for individuals with Down syndrome, autism, and diabetes.
The most practical and economical way of raising ketone levels is with the MCT/coconut oil combo. It can be taken by the spoonful, but a far more pleasant way to get it down is to add it to food. In a family that has been following this program, they mix the two oils in a jar and measure out the desired amount for each meal. They cook with the oil, put it in oatmeal, and use it in salad dressings and as a spread. They also use other sources such as coconut flakes, milk, ice cream, macaroons, etc., and adjust the amount of additional oil accordingly. The recommended dose of MCTs for neurodegenerative disorders is 20 g per meal (7 teaspoons or a scant 2 ½ tablespoons). A good recipe is to combine 16 ounces of MCT oil plus 12 ounces of coconut oil, store at room temperature (it gets hard when refrigerated), and use as needed. To avoid diarrhea, start with 1–2 teaspoons per meal and build up gradually—and be aware that some people will only be able to tolerate lower amounts.
I believe that ketone therapy also has a promising role in prevention. As I mentioned, poor glucose tolerance precedes symptoms of neurodegenerative disorders and contributes to their progression. Why shouldn’t healthy people—especially if they’re older or have a family history of any of these diseases—take a few spoonfuls of these oils every day to help stave off future problems? I’ve been doing this myself, and I urge you to consider doing the same.

To your health,

Why conventional medicine is not doing you any favors.
It's So Confusing! TEACH ME SOMETHING!!
There is recent evidence revealed by the U.S. Department of Education stating that most people are “health illiterate” when it comes to understanding detailed medical instructions because they’re overloaded with medical jargon.
That’s not surprising considering that the medical establishment is hoping that we stay in the dark when it comes to physical and mental well-being. If you take your health and pain management into your own hands, then it means less cash lining their pockets. (more…)

Ancient Art Form Leads to Full Night’s Sleep
Just Finished Tai-Chi Long Form!!
There’s a new way to get a great night’s sleep. It doesn’t come from a drug…or even a supplement.
So what is it?
It’s an ancient practice developed in the 12th century. If you are guessing yoga…you’re wrong. But it is a system of movements and positions.
Dr. Michael Ray Irwin is a professor at UCLA. He’s Director of the Cousins Center for Psychoneuroimmunology. He’s an expert in biophysics, psychiatry, and medicine. And he’s studied many approaches to sleep. (more…)

Good Morning, Loyal Readers, and Cherished Subscribers!
It's All SO EASY! Why Can't They See It?!
We have gone through a couple of rough days in the past week, and we appreciate your being patient with us.
As you may have witnessed, many of our Articles from the past have been de-activated or removed; our experienced Staff removed them, because….
Now, The Rev. will continue to choose our Articles for us, and make them as informative and entertaining as possible — as usual. But there are changes coming, and, as many of you are well aware, the Calendar is your best indicator of the Changes to come.
We’ll start with 28/10/2011. If you are not aware of the significance of the date, please research it; you will be pleasantly surprised.
Also the Number 422. This counts the Number of Days leading up to the the False Armageddon of 21/12/2012. We experienced the same thing, if you recall, at the Turn of the Century, when the World was about to end, right? We are aware that Calendars are an illusion created by humans. The Universe does not recognise a Calendar as significant, therefore another day will pass — as it has since the beginning.
Enough said.
Still, (Here comes the Sermon!) it would be a nice idea to observe a few ideas. If We wanted to change our world, we cannot change everything. Therefore, we change what we can. Here is a thought:
- LIVE SIMPLY. Get rid of anything that causes you to stress out, or causes you worry or concern. You’ll find that it works well.
- SPEAK KINDLY. As my Gorilla friends say, “Think fast, Speak slow; not hurt!” Use POSITIVE words and ideas. People will wonder what you’re up to — you can enjoy the privacy of your actions….
- CARE DEEPLY. Think with your Heart. When you exhibit and practise compassion, you will change those around you, not by word, but by action. When they ask you, “WHY?” your answer will be simply, ” Because I Can!” If they are open to it, they’ll get the message, if not, nothing is wasted.
- LOVE GENEROUSLY. The Root of your beliefs, whatever they are, is Love. Your Prime Creator is unchanging, and loves you all the time, without condition, without return requested! The Source-Energy only wants one thing; that you love everyone and everything unconditionally. Meaning? To be aware of that being; to know it, and the Love will be there. When it happens, you change yourself, and you change your world (that which you can control).
It’s all quite simple. There is no “Yes, but…” in Source-Energy’s Request. You want to see change? Be the Change You Wish To See In Your World. You cannot save everything or every one. Don’t try.
Do what you can, with what you have, from where you are. It’s enough. It will always be enough.
Namaste`
The Rev., and Staff

(From CANCER DEFEATED Newletter)
If you do much reading about natural health, you often hear that people in Okinawa, Japan enjoy phenomenal health and live longer, on average, than anyone else on earth. They have low cholesterol levels… almost no heart disease… and scarcely any deaths by stroke or cancer… So what gives? Could the Japanese have better genes than the rest of the human race? (more…)

Dear David,
Here’s something you won’t hear in TV commercials or even from most doctors….
They want you to believe heart disease is caused by high cholesterol. And their solution is to take statin drugs to reduce your cholesterol.But the thing is, cholesterol has very little to do with it. And the prescription drug “solutions” come with potentially harmful side effects. What the “experts” don’t tell you – or don’t know – is that heart disease can be caused by toxins in your blood.

It's Sweet, It's Tasty, and It's MEDICINE!
A professor at CCNY for a physiological psych class told his class about bananas. He said the expression ‘going bananas’ is from the effects of bananas on the brain. Read on:
- Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.
- Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world’s leading athletes. But energy isn’t the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet. (more…)

It can be so romantic and relaxing…
The sound of falling rain, the calming lull of a waterfall, the invigorating effect of the ocean…
Being in close proximity to all of these is also electrifying (literally) and has profound bone health benefits.
As amazing as this sounds, it has been scientifically proven that when water moves, there is a release of negative ions – electrically charged particles that attach themselves to damaging free radicals. And most importantly, these ions alkalize your body.1 (more…)

We all want to experience optimum health. We also desire and seek that the lives of our loved ones would also be disease and pain free. However, in this new age of medicine and scientific discoveries, our population as a whole, is becoming sicker and sicker. We are being plagued by more diseases than every before and Cancer and Heart Disease is ever increasing as well. (more…)

Mung beans are small, bright green beans, and bean sprouts are the sprouts that grow from those beans. You may recognize the sprouts from your take-out spring rolls, but they really shine when served raw. The crunchy and delicately sweet bean sprouts are a good source of protein, vitamin C and folic acid. They’re also high in fibre, making them a great way to add some crunch to your spring salads.

 Did You Bring The "Vick's"?
During a lecture on Essential Oils, they told us how the foot soles
can absorb oils. Their example: Put garlic on your feet and within 20
minutes you can ‘taste’ it.
Some of us have used Vicks VapoRub for years for everything from
chapped lips to sore toes and many body parts in between. But I’ve never
heard of this. And don’t laugh, it works 100% of the time, although the
scientists who discovered it aren’t sure why. To stop night time coughing in
a child (or adult as we found out personally), put Vicks VapoRub generously
on the soles of your feet, cover with socks, and the heavy, deep coughing
will stop in about 5 minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of
relief. Works 100% of the time and is more effective in children than even
very strong prescription cough medicines. In addition it is extremely
soothing and comforting and they will sleep soundly
Just happened to tune in A.M. Radio and picked up this guy talking
about why cough medicines in kids often do more harm than good, due to the
chemicals in them. This method of using Vicks VapoRub on the soles of the
feet was found to be more effective than prescribed medicines for children
at bed time. In addition it seems to have a soothing and calming effect on
sick children who then went on to sleep soundly.
My wife tried it on herself when she had a very deep constant and
persistent cough a few weeks ago and it worked 100%! She said that it felt
like a warm blanket had enveloped her, coughing stopped in a few minutes. So
she went from; every few seconds uncontrollable coughing, she slept
cough-free for hours every night she used it.
If you have grandchildren, pass this on. If you end up sick, try it
yourself and you will be amazed at how it works
DON’T SHUN THIS ONE.. TRY IT THE NEXT TIME YOU GET A BAD COLD.
THE ONLY THING YOU CAN LOSE IS YOUR COUGH.

We’re taught to respect and trust authority figures like teachers and priests. But that trust is never more sacred than with
NO!! No Back Surgery--EVER!!
doctors. After all, you literally trust them with your life. When you consult a doctor, you trust they have your best interests at heart.
But a new phenomenon in spinal surgery may make you revise that thinking.
The back pain business is a billion dollar industry that offers enormous financial rewards for savvy doctors. The next time you’re laid up in bed with back pain and you think a trip to the doctor’s is your best bet, think again. There’s a very good chance that the pill she prescribes… the device she promotes… or the surgery she suggests… may not be necessary at all. And the best solution might have been something else entirely… something cheap, simple and safe.
