How to Detox the C19 Vax


There are two simple ways to detox the Covid vaccine, which I doubt the Establishment will want me to tell you about. This method has been thoroughly tried and tested by people close to me and I can assure you of its efficacy.  It works.

The first is Activated Charcoal capsules.  The Charcoal goes around your blood stream picking up any toxins, binding them and excreting them via your stool.  So it goes round and round your blood stream to all the organs of your body and is magnetically attracted to removing anything that is alien in your body.

It is very easy for it to be magnetically attracted to and pick up all those self replicating spike protein particles, which of course are absolutely tiny and minute as they are nano!

Charcoal does not absorb into the cells of your body but remains in the bloodstream only and after picking up all toxins and anything that is bad.  It then binds up these things and removes them in your stool, which will obviously look blackish, so don't worry about that! The charcoal powder in the capsules has a very wide reach in the bloodstream.

In fact charcoal is commonly used for people who overdose on drugs, (perhaps in an attempted suicide), are taken to hospital to have their stomachs pumped and are given charcoal intravenously to clear out the poisons.

It is also great if you have drunk too much alcohol and likely to have a hangover next day.  Just take some charcoal capsules and you will wake up feeling fine!

I would take one capsule a day for a month if you are actively trying to detox the vax.  Then after that take 2 capsules once a week.

We are all living in a very polluted world, with very polluted air.  Remember when you breathe, the air goes into your lungs and then whatever is in the air goes ultimately into your bloodstream. So we should all take charcoal capsules at least once a month, even if we don't need to detox the vax.  We all need to detox generally anyway.

You can read more about Charcoal here and be sure to also click the Further Reading tab.

The second thing to take for the C19 vax, is Serrapeptase capsules.  This supplement has been almost completely banned in the UK after the drug companies probably found out how effective it is at removing Blood Clots!  It used to be easy to buy here.  It may be possible to buy in the US and elsewhere. If so, buy a few bottles!

Serrapeptase digests non-living tissue, it gets rid of any dead tissue in the body.  This also includes plaque in the arteries.  But taking it regularly prevents any build up of blood clots, therefore removing the risk of heart attack.

If you are detoxing, take two 80,000 i.u. capsules a day for a month to rid your body of any clots that are forming. Serrapeptase comes in different strengths.  Normally the capsules are 80,000 i.u. each but previously it was possible to buy 250,000 i.u.

Serrapeptase was created around 70 years ago and is extremely safe.  I have been using it for 20 years with no problems at all.  It has no side effects, only good effects!

Again make sure you click Further Reading on the above link.

The only caution is for people on blood-thinning medication but otherwise there are no contraindications for its use.

NB.  I am not necessarily saying you should buy these products from Regenerative Nutrition, although it is a top of the range company and has the purest products of anywhere (!) but it has some very good information on these products.


God is in Nature!


(God's Gifts!)



In the past people thought of God as a King on a Throne, in Man's image. 

In fact I believe God is a highly evolved Loving Super Intelligence, the Creator, the Source, which is in every living thing on our Earth Planet, including ourselves.

God is in the forests, whispering in the trees. In all plants and greenery. If you study a leaf of a tree, you see how beautifully symmetrical and detailed it is. 

Everything in Nature arranges itself in the most perfect way, an absolute dream of artistic and beautiful harmonious balance.

The Heart of God is in the beautiful flowers in your garden, the numerous varieties of flowers around the world of different colours and shapes..

The Life Force of God is in all of the animals, which instinctively know what they have to do to look after themselves and reproduce. 

Animals seem closer to God than humans, as they have more empathy and love, especially domesticated ones.

God is in the birds in the trees, singing their songs to bring on Spring and new growth. As I write, I watch a beautiful white bird soar in the sky, round and round.

You may decide to uproot what you call 'weeds' in your garden but in actual fact these may be medicinal herbs that have been attracted to you and grow there for your benefit.

You will notice your neighbour might have masses of stinging nettles in their garden and you might have lots of dandelions. Both of these are extremely medicinal.

God is in the sea, with its multitude of creatures and lovely shells we like to collect. It is in the beautiful beaches that we long for and dream of when we are going through winter and rainy days. 

Seawater is extremely beneficial to drink in small quantities, as it contains all the minerals the human body needs.

God is in the Music of the Spheres, the mountains, the hills, the wind, the storms, thunder and lightning.

God is in the pure sparkling water, melting down from the snow on the mountains into the rivers, then into the seas.

God is in the rain, full of life giving minerals to feed the plants and trees and for us to drink.

God is in the bountiful fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds we eat, with all the abundant varieties worldwide. The wild berries that grow in the hedgerows, delicious to eat and totally organic.

Mankind can never replicate the intricacies of these delicious foods, though he tries in the laboratories by genetically modifying them. 

God is in the Earth, in the gemstones, gold and silver.

God is in the Sun, the giver of all Life, without which the Earth would perish and in the exquisite sunsets we used to see in the past.

God is in the Moon, which regulates the tides of the oceans and in olden days its phases were used for the correct planting of crops.

Man thinks he can create all these things but he cannot or if he succeeds, the creations are inferior versions that don't usually survive long. Think Dolly the sheep.

Everything in Nature is Beautiful, even raindrops outside, making ripples on the ground!

Ascorbic Acid is Not Vitamin C


Vitamin C is a complex molecule which contain P, K and J factors, the tyrosinase enzyme, at least 14 known bioflavonoids, various ascorbagens, five copper ions, iron, manganese, zinc, selenium, phosphorus, magnesium and yes, ascorbic acid.

Ascorbic acid is only the envelope of the C complex, which protects the nutrients inside from deterioration.

The P factor is Rutin which strengthens blood vessels and collagen containing tissues like cartilage.  The K factor supports blood clotting like vitamin K, limits bruising and contributes to bone strength.  The J factor supports the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood to the organs and tissues.

Tyrosinase activates copper to function in energy production, metabolism, hemoglobin formation, thyroid hormone production and cholesterol metabolism.

Bioflavonoids have numerous enzyme and metabolic cofactor actions.

Ascorbagens have a beneficial effect on the liver and intestinal enzymes.

The body is dependent on the whole vitamin C complex and as we cannot make it ourselves, we are completely dependent on getting it from our food.  It is found in many fruits and vegetables but is easily destroyed by heat, so they are best eaten raw.  Many fruit juices are pasteurised, which means they are heated and this literally explodes the vitamin C molecule.

It is better therefore to buy whole food vitamin C supplements, as most vitamin C products are ascorbic acid only.

Biochemically, ascorbic acid is nothing like true Vitamin C.  It is a pro-oxidant, not an antioxidant, which means it causes oxidation in the body, which is not good when it happens to your cells. It actually depletes and destroys true vitamin C in the body!

When I recently discovered this, I threw out my ascorbic acid vitamin C and bought the whole state one from Wild Nutrition.  You do not need the high potencies of ascorbic acid when you take the whole food state one.  

Ascorbic acid is incredibly cheap to synthesise and isolate in a laboratory and usually comes from genetically modified corn!  This is why it is the basis of nearly all vitamin C products on the market!

So I am writing this as a health warning to those people who diligently take ascorbic acid Vitamin C every day, not realising it is in fact harmful!


This article has been written using information from an excellent book called 'The Calcium Lie II - What Your Doctor Still Doesn't Know', by Dr. Robert Thompson and Kathleen Barnes.  The book clearly outlines why excess calcium is extremely harmful and the fact that bones are made up of twelve other minerals, as well as many trace minerals. The book also goes into great detail about the other major vitamins, what they are made up of, as well as their function in the human body.  The book is available on Amazon and contains life changing information.

In Praise of Homeopathy!

by Louise Mclean, LCCH.




We owe our great thanks to the discovery of homeopathy in 1789 by German doctor Samuel Hahnemann, when he experimented with Peruvian Bark and its suitability as a medicine for malaria.

Since then its popularity has spread throughout the world and cured many millions of people.  This article of 2022 shows that homeopathy continues to grow and gain popularity worldwide. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/voices/despite-all-odds-homeopathy-continues-to-gain-popularity/

Homeopathy was very successful in treating epidemics that raged throughout Europe in the early 1800s, notably cholera, typhoid, diphtheria, polio, scarlet fever, yellow fever, pneumonia and influenza.

It has a long history of use in Britain, where in the Victorian times there were once at least fourteen homeopathic hospitals and hundreds of homeopathic pharmacies. In those days the royalty and aristocracy of Britain were very keen on it and this article for those interested, lays out the facts. http://www.homeoint.org/morrell/articles/pm_brita.htm

In America there were 100 homeopathic hospitals and 22 homeopathic medical schools during the 1800s, as well as thousands of homeopathic pharmacies. Here you can read about the epidemics it cured in the USA. https://homeopathic.com/the-history-of-homeopathy-in-epidemics-by-cilla-whatcott-hd-rhom-cch/

This a much more in depth article about the enormous success of homeopathy throughout America. http://www.homeoint.org/history/king/1-27.htm

It might be strange to people that all those homeopathic hospitals and pharmacies have disappeared in America and Britain.  This was due to a concerted effort to remove them by first getting rid of all the homeopathic colleges which trained homeopaths, so there would be no more graduate homeopaths. With this list of homeopathic institutions in America, you can see what a huge task that was.  http://www.homeoint.org/history/king/index.htm

The removal of homeopathic colleges was brought about following the Flexner Report in America in 1910, which was the death knell for safe and natural medicine, such as herbalism, osteopathy and homeopathy.  Albert Flexner was tasked to visit every medical school of every discipline and make out his report, which redefined what could be taught.  This resulted in only the pharmaceutical medical model being deemed acceptable. https://kamimcbride.com/the-flexner-report/

Historically, homeopathy attracted support from many of the most respected members of society in the USA, such as writers William James, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Louisa M. Alcott, Mark Twain and former American Presidents James Garfield and William McKinley.  

In Britain among its supporters were writers George Bernard Shaw, Charles Dickens, W.B. Yeats, William Thackeray, Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli and musician Yehudi Menuhin.  Other well known advocates were Dostoevsky, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Mahatma Gandhi.
  
In France, 95% of doctors currently use homeopathy, as well as paediatricians and midwives.  Homeopathic medicine is freely available in French pharmacies. In 2019 the majority of French people (72%) had a good perception of homeopathy, though their government stopped reimbursing it in 2021, the reasoning for which has been branded 'deeply flawed'. https://homeopathy-soh.org/french-move-to-end-homeopathy-funding-based-on-flawed-evidence/ 

Nowadays, India is the country where homeopathy is most widely used and according to Statista in 2021 there were 312,000 homeopathic doctors. Because of its low cost, many people there rely on it solely as their only form of medicine.  https://www.statista.com/statistics/1405599/india-homeopathy-doctors-by-state/

One of the most important trials on homeopathy was done inadvertently and it unequivocally proved its efficacy. In 2007 and 2008, an outbreak of Leptospirosis in Cuba was contained using a preventative homeopathic dose of the actual disease itself, which was given to 2.3 million people.  This resulted in a dramatic fall in the usual number of people contracting leptospirosis during that season. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/45439731_Large-scale_application_of_highly-diluted_bacteria_for_Leptospirosis_epidemic_control

There are many  other scientific studies proving the benefits and effectiveness of homeopathic medicine, some of which are detailed here.  https://homeopathy-uk.org/treatment/scientific-evidence-and-homeopathy/

The pharmaceutical industry has not looked kindly on homeopathy. Great efforts have been made since its resurgence in popularity in the 1990s to deter people from using it, mainly through ridicule and propaganda in the media.  Obviously Pharma loses money when people prefer to use a safer, gentler and effective form of medicine, free from side effects, addiction and poisoning.

Many people don't realise that homeopathy is increasingly being given to farm animals and has even been found to work very well on farm crops, trees and plants.  This undoubtedly proves that the healing effect of homeopathy is not placebo! 

Homeopathy at Wellie Level teaches courses to farmers, so they can use homeopathy on their animals. It can be used for a wide variety of conditions and in the video here, the farmer's wife explains how it is good for the environment, saves them money on veterinary bills and works quickly.  https://www.hawl.co.uk/

A remarkable book was published by Vaikunthanath Das Kaviraj on the subject of Agrohomeopathy, namely Homeopathy for Farm and Garden.  I personally met Mr. Kaviraj who recommended Belladonna for the blackspot and aphids on my beautiful heritage red roses.  Needless to say, it worked perfectly!  This book is so popular it is now on its 6th edition.

In his published paper, 'The Continuum of a Unified Theory of Disease', world famous homeopath, Professor George Vithoulkas, says: 
"Throughout the life of a person, from birth to death, there is a continuum in the pathological conditions that person may experience. The body as a whole suffers deeply any time there is an acute or a chronic condition that is either maltreated or neglected." 

"Suppression of diseases, through excess of chemical drugs or other means, many times overwhelms the body's natural defenses and forces the immune system to compromise and start a deeper line of defense, which then constitute the beginning of a new chronic condition."

Sadly the medical profession's cures are often nothing more than palliation at best and suppression at worst, which as stated above, then becomes a new and deeper chronic condition, even harder and more stubborn to treat.

Conversely, through carefully noting down all the symptoms of a disease and prescribing a matching homeopathic remedy accordingly, homeopaths seek to work with and aid the body's efforts to heal itself, restoring the patient back to health.

As we see ever more results of the bad effects of the current medical model's prescribing, we can only hope there will be an increase in the number of people finding themselves a good homeopathic practitioner to reverse the state of their ill health.

Arnica, the First Remedy in Head Injuries

by Louise Mclean


Arnica Montana, also known as wolf's bane and leopard's bane, has been used for centuries.  People tend to buy Arnica cream and this can be used for bruising, sprains, strains, muscle aches.  The cream should not be rubbed into open wounds but the remedy is safe.

As well as the cream, Arnica can be purchased as a homeopathic remedy and it is essential, in my opinion, for parents with small children to have a bottle of the Arnica 30c and Arnica 200c in their first aid cupboards.

This is because Arnica is the first remedy to take in a homeopathic dose after a head injury.  It is brilliant for very quickly healing.  You can save a lot of trouble by giving your child Arnica 200c if they have a bad fall.  The bump will come up quickly and heal quickly.  This is because it acts on the blood circulation.

The homeopathic Arnica is also a remedy for Shock, which is exactly what happens after any accident!

Arnica is also excellent for people who have had a blow to the body and bad bruising.  Arnica should be taken if someone falls over, is hit hard or punched. The body and limbs might ache all over.  It is mainly for bruises to the soft tissues and Ruta Graveolens is the remedy for bruises to the bones.

It works for black eyes but if there is damage to the actual eyes themselves, try the homeopathic remedy Symphytum 200c instead.

Arnica is a wonderful remedy after over-exercising, running too long and the whole body is aching.  As it is for strains, a dose will quickly alleviate any pain.

I have used it myself on a sprained ankle, which I twisted whilst walking in high heeled sandals over cobbled stones on holiday.  It cured it overnight but I had to wear flip flops for the next few days!

It also works on pulled muscles.  My mother needed it after had taking out the dog for a walk.  The dog ran off so suddenly the whole lead expanded to its full length, pulling my elderly mother with him, nearly knocking her over.  She had a pulled muscle in her shoulder which healed quickly.

Another person I know was given a black eye and punched hard in the kidneys, so he could barely urinate.  A dose of Arnica 200c fixed both the eye and the kidneys and he got better quickly.

Another important use is Arnica after tooth extraction, where the gums feel sore and are bruised.  The remedy will help.

Arnica is also a remedy for septic states after injury.

It is an excellent remedy after a difficult labour and childbirth, when the mother feels bruised.

Another use for Arnica is for those people who have had a very bad tickling cough, which goes on for so many days, that eventually their whole chest hurts and feels bruised from coughing so much.

Arnica is a great friend to the sportsman or woman.  Frequently they will overstrain, pull muscles or bruise and again Arnica is the best cure for this, either by rubbing the cream on the muscles or bruise, or taking a dose of the homeopathic remedy.  However tennis elbow is more likely to resolve with the remedy Rhus Tox and there is also a cream for this.

The Healing Properties of Calendula

by Louise Mclean

Calendula Officinalis is a bright yellow or orange flower and comes from the daisy family, commonly called pot marigold and grows from one to three foot high (30-90 cm).  Marigold is an attractive and fairly easy annual plant to grow, which withstands the cold well, blooming in spring to autumn. 

Over the past week or so we have experienced freezing cold weather and I have noticed my skin, especially my hands, feel extremely dry, like sandpaper.  Nothing I put on them seems to really alleviate the discomfort but I remembered Calendula cream is good and very healing, so I put some on today and found it worked!  I had previously tried the wonderfully rich castor oil but even that didn't help as much as the Calendula cream in this instance, which is better designed for chapped hands.

In fact Calendula, which is made from Marigold flowers, is extremely good for cuts and abrasions.  If you have a cut that is bleeding, it is specifically good for stemming the blood flow and fast healing.  It is good for open wounds, parts that will not heal, ulcers, etc.  It can also be used on superficial scalds and burns.

The other contender for fast healing is Lavender Aromatherapy Oil.  If you have a seriously bad cut, you can simply run a basin or bucket of warm water, add a few drops of lavender oil and place the part of your body with the cut into it for at least 10 minutes.  You will be amazed that the cut will almost totally have healed up overnight!  What is so good about this is that lavender is antiseptic, so no need to use anything nasty that will sting your cut to clean it, the lavender water will do this AND completely soothe any pain from the cut, as lavender is calming and soothing.

Now Calendula is also antiseptic, so the cream can be immediately applied to any cut, to clean and stem the flow of blood.  It also has antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties.

Another very important use for Calendula is for breastfeeding women!  Very often with a first baby, women find their nipples become extremely sore from the baby sucking.  All you need to do in between feeds, is put the Calendula cream on them for fast healing.  Remember it is antiseptic, so safe for the baby, if they get a little on their mouths.  In addition, it is excellent for nappy rash.

The Calendula homeopathic remedy in a 30c or 200c can be taken for tears to muscles or ligaments, commonly known as lacerations.

A very important use is to apply the cream on sunburnt skin to help heal it but I personally prefer the Bach Flower Rescue Remedy Cream for sunburn.  We used it to great effect on our holiday last summer, when one of us was seriously badly burnt!  It completely healed after three applications and took away all the pain, as well as averting any peeling of the skin!

Someone I know had a chemical skin peel face treatment and afterwards her skin certainly peeled in a rather dramatic way but applying calendula cream repeatedly, soon healed her face up quickly!

In addition to using Calendula cream, there is also the homeopathic pill form. This is good to take as well, if you have a badly bleeding cut.  The homeopathy remedy pill sucked and taken internally sometimes works better than the cream, as you can choose the potency 6c, 30c or 200c, depending how serious the wound is.  

I have used it after tooth extraction to stop the bleeding.  You might have to apply the cream quite a few times to a cut but if you take the homeopathic Calendula pill, it works much more quickly and effectively.

Incidentally, the homeopathic remedy Calendula 30c should be taken for those with cervical cancer, as it heals the wart virus and the raw soreness of the vagina that accompanies this condition.  Indeed the homeopathic Calendula is used as an intercurrent remedy for cancer.

All in all Calendula cream (and the homeopathic Calendula remedy) are things I would definitely always keep in my first aid kit and the cream is definitely helping my dry hands in this freezing weather at the moment!

Boost Your Overall Health with Fulvic Acid Minerals

by Louise Mclean

Nowadays, as we know, our food does not contain as many vitamins and minerals as it did 60 years ago, when all food was organic and grown in a much more natural way and in healthier soil.

A study conducted by the United Nations Rio Earth Summit revealed that the mineral levels in agricultural soils have fallen by 85% in the USA during the last century.

It seems to me that nearly all our fruit and vegetables have been genetically modified in some way, though why scientists think they can improve on Mother Nature, I don't know.  

They can't and the quality and taste of our fruit and vegetables has dramatically decreased.  In addition, most fruit and vegetables have been radiated to extend their shelf life before being put in the shops.

For example, if you pick a fruit or vegetable from the garden to eat, it has all of its lifeforce in it, whereas radiated produce is essentially dead.

Hence, now more than ever, people are supplementing their diet with vitamins and minerals.  It is very important to take a very high quality brand and avoid supermarket own brand vitamins!  I would recommend Dr. Joseph Mercola's vitamins as being one of the very best and he makes vitamins for men and women.  You can buy them at his Mercola Market.

In addition, if you also buy Fulvic Minerals, which are in liquid form, you can boost your health even further.  A few drops in water are taken daily or nightly with meals.

There are so many trace minerals which are essential for our complete health, which are almost impossible to get from our food nowadays.  Supplements typically do not contain more than 40 minerals and are often derived from sources that are less absorbable by the body. However at least 70 minerals are all found in Fulvic Minerals.

Fulvic Acid occurs naturally in all soils and contains the healing and protective qualities from all the plants and other species that have grown in that earth. It is made up of minerals derived from ancient organic plants. It contains rare earth trace minerals, amino acids, phytonutrients and other powerful elements.  

It is believed to defend the body against serious illness, fight inflammation, enhance antioxidant activity and boost immunity.  One of the best products is made by Ancient Purity and this was in fact its first product in 2008. 

When our bodies don't get the minerals they need to rebuild, they can start breaking down and Professor Linus Pauling, who won a Nobel Prize for his work on Vitamin C, said that he believed every illness can be traced to a deficiency of minerals.

There is another very good Fulvic Acid product made by Touchstone Essentials, which is slightly more expensive. It is a combination of fulvic acid from a remote peat bog in Canada, trace minerals from North Atlantic seaweed and natural zeolite Clinoptilolite. The zeolite binds to heavy metals and other environmental toxins, supporting detox and gut health.

These products are both from UK websites but Touchstone Essentials can be bought in the USA and Ancient Purity delivers worldwide.

The Many Benefits of Castor Oil


 

Castor oil is currently very much in vogue for natural health enthusiasts, who have found lots of ways to use it, though it has actually been around for decades. 


It was originally found in North and East Africa as well as the Middle East but also grows in other parts of the world including the United States.  The oil is extracted from the castor bean, which is the seed of the Ricinus Communis plant and it is rich in omega-6, omega-9 and vitamin E.

Castor oil was well known in the past as a natural laxative and also for nappy rash in the form of zinc and castor oil cream.

Nowadays, people are using it as a treatment for their hair, face and in a poultice for all manner of conditions.

Those who suffer from hair loss can benefit greatly from rubbing it into their scalps, putting on a shower cap and sleeping with it overnight.  It is said to increase hair growth, moisturise a dry scalp and help reduce dandruff due to its antifungal and antibacterial properties. It will make your hair look rich and glossy and washes out well.

Castor oil is a very rich, thick oil and is wonderful for very dry, wrinkled skin.  Using it daily and nightly can help erase wrinkles and give a much more youthful bloom to the skin.  In addition, it will slowly clear stretch marks from pregnancy. It works well for people with very dry skin and contains ricinoleic acid, which is a monounsaturated fatty acid.

Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, castor oil can also benefit people with acne, as well as puffiness of the face and under the eyes.

I have mixed organic castor oil and organic coconut oil together and use this combination as a daily skin and hand cream.  I can confirm that for me, castor oil really does erase wrinkles and make my skin feel great.

Many people nowadays are using castor oil in a poultice or compress overnight around their abdomen, as it is said to stimulate lymphatic flow and liver function, help reduce menstrual issues and support gallbladder health.  

You can rub it on swollen and inflamed joints too before you go to bed, which will ease pain.  Some people put castor oil in their belly buttons overnight and swear that it helps their overall digestion!

Castor oil packs are available to buy online and there is numerous information on the subject to read there.  I would recommend buying an organic castor oil.

Spirulina is an Excellent Dietary Superfood!


by Louise Mclean, LCCH.

One of the best supplements or superfoods you can take is Spirulina and even if I was to skip all my other daily vitamins and minerals, I would never forget to take this one!

It is as though being too busy to make or eat your greens can quickly be corrected by swallowing 3 spirulina pills a day!  All I can say is I feel very well on it.

I had never truly researched it in depth, just found it was extremely good for me and decided to find all the information on it, so I could write this.  (I am trying over time to write an article on each of what I consider to be the best supplements but new ones are coming out all the time!)

Spirulina is a blue green algae known as a cyanobacteria, which is a nutrient dense, plant-based source of 50% to 70% protein. The blue green colour is caused by a pigment called phycocyanin. 

It is a very good source of Vitamins A as beta carotene, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 vitamins, K2, contains  protein, copper, calcium, iron, copper, phosphorus, selenium and manganese. There are many essential amino and fatty acids. 

In addition it is a very powerful antioxidant, which helps fight free radicals or toxins entering the body.

It is easy to digest and absorb, as it is a wholefood, and has been consumed for centuries, in Africa and as far back as the Aztecs.

The health benefits of spirulina are many.  It is said to lower blood pressure, regulate blood sugar levels, help with weight loss and building muscle, as well as reduce cholesterol, combat candida and symptoms of asthma, rhinitis and allergies. It is also believed to contain anti-cancer properties because it is anti-inflammatory.  

In 1974 spirulina was declared one of the best foods for the future by the World Food Conference and was even used by NASA for their astronauts in space!

There is much chlorophyll in spirulina which helps to detoxify the blood, improving bowel and liver function.

This powerful supplement is very good for anaemic subjects, with lack of red blood cells.

There is more information in this article, where you can also find scientific studies to back up the above claims.  

https://www.well-beingsecrets.com/spirulina-benefits/

My absolute favourite Spirulina is the Kiki Health one.  I have tried others and found they have a fishy taste, which was unpleasant.  Kiki Health is a very pure organic product.  They also sell lots of other excellent products!

The Real Reason We Get Colds and Flu - to Detox Naturally

Meishusama, born Mokichi Okada, was a Japanese man who lived from 1882-1955. Meishusama was a poet, artist, mystic, visionary, businessman, husband, father, and spiritual teacher.

(This is copied from Meishusama's writings - date unknown) 



God's Way to Health - What is Illness?

Every man and woman has within him or her two kinds of poisonous matter.  One of these is inherent and the other is acquired after birth.  The inherent poison is, of course, passed on from the person's parents and the other comes from drugs absorbed into the body after birth.  Most people will find this statement surprising, because from the earliest days, medical drugs have been thought of as curing illness and being complementary to good health.  People have always believed that if they can find a good drug, they will be able to cure the illness and this search has been the chief end of medical treatment.  

The USA has been especially notable for its stress on the importance of drugs and has devoted great effort to the discovery and development of new medications, as everyone knows.  In the light of this, we cannot help but think that if illness could be cured by drugs, it would be steadily getting less and less.  And yet illness is, in fact, steadily increasing.  The situation is one of great illogicality and confusion.

Originally and basically, there is no such thing as 'medicine' on this earth.  There is not one single thing which can be so described.  So called 'medicines' are all poisons and it is precisely because they are poisonous that they have an effect.  To be exact, the poisons we call medicines act in a toxic way to reduce the symptoms of disease, and thus give the superficial appearance of a cure.  No real cure takes place.

The reason why medicines are in fact toxic is this.  The things which human beings could possibly try to eat were all given life at the same time as the creation of man.  These are what we call food.  The two types of food - that is, that which man should eat and that which he should not eat - are naturally separated.  That is, things which man should eat have a flavour which is pleasurable to the sense of taste of human beings.  If people eat those things which they find enjoyable, they will  receive adequate nourishment.  This shows the comprehensive concern of the Creator of the Universe for all creation.  

This means that rather than saying that we eat in order to live, the truth is that we live by eating.  This is similar to the case of reproduction.  Men and women do not come together in order to create children.  Rather, they are blessed with children as a half-unexpected consequence of the pursuit of another goal.  This is a profound and divine mystery.

The internal organs of the body are unable to deal completely with things that are not supposed to be taken as food.  As medicine is precisely such a foreign object, although the body absorbs what nutrition there is from it, the remainder stays in the body and is not all voided.  This is medicinal poisoning.  The worst aspect of this is that the poison accumulates in all parts of the body and it solidifies as time passes.  The places where the toxin gathers are always places of high nervous activity.  And when we think where such places are located, we realise that they are, of course, mostly in the upper half of the body, especially from the neck upwards.  With the brain as the centre, they also include the eyes, the ears, the nose and the mouth, and it is in these places that the toxin concentrates, once it has solidified around the neck.  

Everybody, I am sure, will find areas of solidification in his shoulders and around his neck.  When this hardening reaches a certain degree, there occurs a process of natural discharge, that is, a process of purification.  In this phase, the solidified toxin is melted by a rise in temperature and becomes a liquid.  This liquid is eliminated from the body by means of a cough, phlegm, nasal discharge, perspiration, diarrhoea, fever or urine.  This is what we term a cold or flu.

A cold therefore, is a process of elimination of poisons.  If you put up with the slight discomfort patiently and trust yourself to Nature, the poison will be discharged with no problems, the inside of your body will be purified and you will arrive at that state of good health which means that you are truly cured.  A cold is a very simple form of natural regulation.  It is God's Providence.  People who do not realise this and don't give heartfelt thanks to God, instead interpret the significance of the discomfort of the purification in a negative way and decide that they should try to end it.  This way of thinking brings about medical science, that great source of error.

The process of purification takes place with greater frequency when the cleansing power of the body is stronger and more vigorous.  A way of preventing or lessening this frequency is, of course, to weaken the body, and it is towards this end that the poisons called medicines are used.

Traditionally, people have taken such things as herbs, roots, barks, minerals and the viscera of animals, have boiled them, made them into powder or taken extracts from them to make liquid medicines, pills, ointments, injections - indeed all sorts and shapes of medicaments.  They are all however, designed to halt the natural process of purification.  All these medicines are strong and taken in large doses would be lethal, and so they are given to people little by little in a dilute form.  They are thus given in doses to be taken more than once a day and an 'effective' medicine is one that is toxic to the degree that is only fractionally less than that necessary to bring about noticeable symptoms of poisoning.

Thus medical science uses poison to prevent the liquefaction and discharge of already accumulated poison and in fact to harden it.  Once you realise this, it is disturbing to speculate how poisoned the people of today are, and how prone they are to disease.  As a result, the need for prophylaxis and hygiene have been stridently proclaimed and influenza has become an object of fear and loathing.

Again, people assume that human life should only extend to seventy years and are delighted to attain this age.  This is a greatly mistaken view.  If a human being is not afflicted with illness, he or she can easily live for a hundred years or more. To die before this, is to die an unnatural death brought about by illness.  If you do not become ill, you are sure to die a natural death and will inevitably live a long life.

Scientific medical treatment does not cure illness but only suppresses the symptoms temporarily.  All methods of treatment, such as complete rest, poultices, liniments, cold compresses, electrotherapy, phototherapy, are no more than means of hardening the poisons of the body.  There are one or two methods which are a little different - for example moxa cautery and thermotherapy - but these also do little more than use the stimulus of heat to attract poison to the area of treatment, thereby affording temporary relief to the body.  As time passes, the person reverts to his previous condition and the treatment has in a real sense, failed.

Again, cancer is sometimes attacked and destroyed using radium.  This would be fine if it were only the cancer that is destroyed but in fact the entire cell organisation of the body suffers and the negative effects of the treatment far outweigh the positive ones.

One often hears that people who are careful about their health are prone to illness, whereas those who do not give a thought to it stay healthy.  Thus the families of doctors, nurses and such people are noted for their frequent illnesses.  Interestingly enough, if one asks one of the rare people who live to be a healthy old age, he or she will say 'I've never been ill, so I've never seen doctors or taken medicine'.  As we see it, such people are healthy because they do not have medical treatment and do not have medical treatment because they are healthy.  This point rewards deep consideration.

Stay Young with Coconut Oil !


Coconut Oil is one of the best things to use on your skin if you are a woman who is aging!  If you are a man you can obviously use it too.  It has a lovely smell and nourishes the skin, as well as over time erases fine lines on your face.  You can rub it into your legs and arms as well, to keep your skin supple and soft.  

It contains vitamin E which is excellent for the skin.  It is high in certain saturated fats and contains medium chain triglycerides, which are shorter fatty acid chains.

Some people might find coconut oil a bit oily on the skin but it quickly soaks in, so it doesn't leave marks on your pillow if you put it on before bedtime, which I do every night.  It is obviously especially good for people with very dry skin.

For really lustrous and healthy hair, you can rub it into your head and leave for a few hours, then simply wash it out.  Some oils are heavy and thick, like olive oil, which is hard work to wash out, but you will find coconut oil light and easy to wash out.

Many people use coconut oil to brush their teeth!  It is also used in oil pulling, which is a way of removing plaque, bacteria and cleansing your mouth.

I have created a lovely little recipe for exfoliating the feet.  Simply mix coconut oil and fine Himalayan crystal salt together.  Not only will this mixture totally exfoliate dry and dead skin from your feet but will leave them feeling positively silky soft!

It is also very effective at clearing nappy rash in babies and very gentle on their skin.

In addition, eating coconut oil is also very healthy and people living in the South Pacific whose diet is 60% coconuts, tend to have very low rates of heart disease.

Here is a list of 29 of the clever uses for Coconut oil.

Curcumin the Miracle Supplement & Painkiller


by Louise Mclean

Curcumin is an ingredient found in Turmeric, which has enormous health benefits for the body.  It is possible to buy this ingredient separately as a supplement.  Otherwise you would have to ingest large quantities of turmeric in order to obtain the benefits.

Firstly, it is a natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant  All pain in the body is caused by inflammation.  In other words, every illness which ends in 'itis', means inflammation.  All of these conditions can be helped by Curcumin.

It is therefore a natural pain killer and I personally use it instead of prescription pain killers, which are mainly opioids, that can be very addictive and cause constipation.  Some of these opioid painkillers actually kill people if taken over a long period of time and there is currently an epidemic of such deaths in western countries.

Curcumin is a micronutrient extracted from the turmeric root.  It targets signalling molecules at the cellular level and is believed to inhibit cancer cells, causing them to die off.

It is has anti aging effects and helps degenerative eye disease, as well as a host of other conditions such as osteoarthritis, heart disease, diabetes, kidney problems, and it is anti-fungal and antibacterial. 

So if you find out you have a fungal infection, such as Candida or if the fungus is in your digestive system, take Curcumin to clear it.

However, it is important to be careful when buying this supplement, that there is a beneficial amount of curcumin in it and it does not contain fillers.  This is because curcumin is rapidly absorbed and excreted, as it does not stay in the body for long.

It is possible to buy Curcumin with Piperine (which is an extract from black pepper).  This improves the bioavailability of Curcumin by 2,000% compared to other brands and is therefore more effective.  To buy this form of Curcumin, I use the one from Regenerative Nutrition.  

You would have to ingest the equivalent of 13.5 grams of turmeric per day to get the same amount in one capsule of the supplement below, as standard turmeric contains only 3% of curcumin in it.

The above Curcumin is currently unavailable (January 2024) but it should be possible to buy again, so you should check back.  In the meantime, I have been buying the Life Extension Curcumin, which is also very good but the Regenerative Nutrition one has nothing but the curcumin and piperine in it and no other added ingredients whatsoever, something I love about all their products.

Hypercalcemia - A Cautionary Tale

by Louise Mclean

Updated 3rd January 2024

(Above Calcium rock pools)

One of my friends has been suffering from osteoarthritis in her hips since 2010, with the right hip being the worst.  She did not want to have hip operations and used homeopathy and supplements. 

She had been taking calcium supplements and Vitamin D3 in increasing amounts for 15 years, acting on the 'expert advice' of a friend with a PhD in nutrition.

From one 500mg calcium supplement per day from 2005, she increased it to 1000mg calcium a day around 2017.  

She then had a massive calcium problem but this was substantially worsened by a very high Vitamin D3 intake, which was increased on the advice of her nutritionist friend, from 1000iu to 20,000iu per day between 2013-2020. 

So by 2020 she was taking 1000mg of calcium and 20,000 vitamin D3 per day!

In 2020, she discovered that it was in fact essential to take Vitamin K2 when you take Vitamin D3.  Excessively high Vitamin D3 intake by itself will pull the calcium out of your bones and dump it into the bloodstream, even causing skeletal abnormalities.  However, the K2 will put the calcium back into the bones.

The current recommended Vitamin D3 dosage is between 600 to 2,000 international units per day but my friend was taking an extremely high D3 intake of 20,000iu per day for three and a half years, which was pulling calcium out of her bones.  

My friend soon realised that she was suffering from an extremely dangerous level of Hypercalcemia!

She was in so much excruciating pain, that in 2020 she wondered if she actually had 'calcium crystals' in her body, as it felt like she was being pricked with broken glass!  When she looked this up, she saw that yes, in fact it is quite possible to have calcium crystals on your nerves, muscles, bones and joints, in fact anywhere in the body!

Calcium is the hardest substance in the human body, so excessive amounts cause extreme stiffness! It is actually stone.  As an example, the White Cliffs of Dover are made up of calcium carbonate, which according to this article, can eventually turn to marble! 

It was when she was sent a video of herself dancing in August 2017 and picking something up quickly from the floor, that she wondered how she had gone downhill so quickly that by the spring of 2019 she could hardly walk, never mind dance or bend down to pick up anything from the floor!  She had started walking with a stick since September 2018.

In the autumn of 2020, someone told her about how taking excessive amounts of vitamin D without Vitamin K2 will pull calcium out of your bones.  This was a Eureka moment! She had already stopped taking Vitamin D3 in May 2020. 

Vitamin D3 is a hormone and actually stores in the fat of the body, which means that even after you stop taking it, it must slowly detox.  She bought Vitamin K2 to offset the stored D3, bearing in mind that the D3 would still be coming out of her fat stores for some time.  

(Calcium and Vitamin D3 store in the body but for example Vitamin C and magnesium, do not).

So she was full of ingested calcium, plus calcium pulled from the bones by the excess D3, all of which had built up in her body, yet the idea had been instilled in her by her friend that it was essential to carry on taking calcium supplements!  

By 2020 she was in excruciating pain and could hardly move at all and she felt like a stone statue from the waist down!

Eventually she found out that it is actually unnecessary to take calcium supplements at all because we get lots of calcium in our food already.  In fact when we get older, we actually have more calcium in our bodies.  That is why so many older people suffer from stiffness!  It is only growing children that need it most.

In fact our bones are made up of 12 minerals, which are Boron, Calcium, Chromium, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Potassium, Phosphorus, Selenium, Sulphur, Silica and Zinc! 

Finally, in December 2020, she came off the calcium supplements completely, once she found out about the calcium crystals. As this would be very slowly coming out of all the deposit areas, after 15 years of taking calcium, it could take years to return to normal levels.

Around May 2021, my friend spoke to a famous nutritionist who lectures all over Britain called Clive de Carle.  He was shocked when she told him about her calcium problem and advised her to take a high daily dose of magnesium, which he said would help shift and disperse the build up of calcium deposits and move it to where it should be in the bones. He said magnesium was safe and any excessive amount would be excreted, not stored, so she started taking 1000mg a day and after a few months brought it down to 500mg daily. Previously she had only been taking 100mg of magnesium a day!

In fact she realised that magnesium was far more beneficial for her than calcium and perhaps what she had needed in the first place for many years!

A supplement called Serrapeptase helped clear the build up of calcium in the bloodstream around the heart, when she experienced a blocked sensation. Hypercalcemia commonly causes strokes due to excessive calcium in the bloodstream, also leading to hardened arteries.  

A salivary gland under her chin had become a hard stone about in an inch in diameter for the past four years.  High concentrates of calcium were going into her mouth, causing a white tongue and excessive plaque build up, which had loosened many of her teeth!  But as soon as she stopped taking calcium supplements that stone-like gland began to soften and eventually go back to its normal size. 

High calcium levels also create an over active parathyroid gland, as this gland regulates calcium, which can create tumours on the gland.

In addition to the above dangers of very high calcium levels in the body, it can cause bone pain, brittle bones, mental confusion and eventually even coma! 

The other thing my friend found out was that excessively high calcium in the body causes a great loss of potassium.  Low potassium levels explain her severe fatigue, digestive bloating, muscle weakness and terrible muscle cramps in her feet and legs.  In addition, low potassium causes swelling of the legs and frequent urination.  

It also creates kidney stones, as there is huge stress on the kidneys, causing swollen eyelids, swollen legs and ankles, all of which my friend experienced.  Her kidneys were overloaded with the burden of trying to excrete the excess calcium and vitamin D3, so it meant my friend needed to get up in the night three or four times to urinate.

Furthermore, excessive amounts of calcium can cause the adrenal glands to shut down, as they try to hold on to magnesium and sodium. Adrenal insufficiency of course causes extreme fatigue.

In fact excessively high calcium levels can cause diabetes insipidus, which can be reversible, when the levels go back down to normal. With diabetes insipidus a person will pass very large volumes of pale urine, known as polyuria, as the kidney function becomes impaired.

The brittleness of bones and ligaments were the reason my friend snapped a ligament in her sacrum in 2012 and also in her right arm in 2018!  With high calcium levels, deposits will later form on top of these old injuries, making them much harder to heal! These two injuries were especially painful with agonising nerve pain on the sacrum from the calcium deposit and calcium crystals.

She also said she had a bony exostosis on her left foot, which was about an inch in diameter.

Another thing my friend complained of was severe heartburn, which is actually caused by low stomach acid and was yet another damaging side effect of the excess calcium.  Deficient stomach acid production causes impaired protein digestion and absorption, which in turn causes amino acid deficiencies and the inability to get these into her cells.

The homeopathic remedy Nux Vomica helped for this but also sipping squeezed lemon juice just before meals, helps to increase the stomach acid.

After about 18 months after coming off the calcium supplements, bit by bit the pain improved and the deposits slowly started breaking down and dispersing but it has been a very slow process and meant my friend has been more or less housebound, rarely able to go out, unless accompanied by someone.

She admitted she has been suffering from severe pain since 2013, which became unbearable by 2020.  She does not like to take pain killers, so uses a very high quality Curcumin product, which is anti-inflammatory and works just as well.

Every day the pains are easing and she now feels as though she is on the road to health again.  Her osteoarthritis and walking is getting better.  Finally, the prescribed homeopathic medicines are starting to take effect with gradual improvement setting in, whereas before they were unable to work through all the calcium deposits.  

In fact nothing had worked, as nothing could work through all those calcium deposits.  This meant a great deal of money was wasted between 2015-2019 going to an expensive back clinic in central London, an osteopath, two chiropractors, an ozone clinic and having acupuncture.  No one could understand why nothing seemed to work at all. In fact no one had been able to understand what was wrong with her.

The homeopathic remedies that helped for the extreme stiffness were predominantly Rhus Tox, Silicea, Kali Carbonica, among others, but these need to be individualised by a professional.  Also Calc Fluor is a remedy that actually removes calcium deposits.

Recently she came across a South American herb called Chanca Piedra, known as 'stone breaker'.  This herb successfully breaks down kidney stones and gallstones, so it helps to break down the calcium, as these stones are encased with calcium. 

Unfortunately losing calcium too quickly in the urine, can aggravate the kidneys, as it had originally done due to the hypercalcemia, so my friend found this to be the case and had to reduce the number of drops of Chanca Piedra she took per day, from the recommended 20 drops down to 10.

My friend has also informed me that she has found another substance that breaks down calcium deposits called EDTA.  This also removes heavy metals as well, which may well be bound to the excessive calcium. So far she says, it has not aggravated her kidneys and she hopes it will work over time by taking one capsule of 500mg per day, taken with food. However, it is really important to take Fulvic Minerals about 12 hours after, as the EDTA also strips minerals out of the body, (when it is removing heavy metals) and these need replacing. (See my article on Fulvic Minerals).

So this is a cautionary tale for people out there with osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and other health conditions.  Do not believe that large doses of calcium are a cure! Make sure you take safe dosages of vitamins D3 with K2, as well as a good quality Magnesium! 

My friend has now concluded that all her health problems were caused by the excessive calcium build up in every part and system of her body.

BORON Removes FLUORIDE




by Louise Mclean, LCCH.

Boron is a trace mineral taken as a supplement which is good for maintaining healthy bones because of its crucial role of calcium integration into the cartilage and bone. It can aid osteoporosis, arthritis, allergies and also menopausal symptoms, as it is essential for oestrogen production.  Sex drive may return and there can be a rapid reduction in hot flushes.  Boron raises the level of natural sex hormones in the body and could eliminate the need for HRT.

It is one of the very few things that actually removes Fluoride from the body.  Fluoride is in most prescription drugs, tap water, toothpaste, in teabags, and causes skeletal fluorosis. Therefore, however much you want to avoid it, you will probably end up ingesting some of it.

Boron will inactivate Fluoride in the body forming a harmless compound, according to Dr. Rex E. Newman PhD, who wrote a book, 'Beating Arthritis & Beating Osteoporosis (Ellesmere Press, The British School, Otley Street, Skipton, Yorkshire) which is a valuable study of Boron extending over many years.

Boron was banned by the European Union, along with many other things but it is still possible to buy it online.
