We can live a long time without food, a couple of days without drinking, but life without breath is measured in minutes. Something so essential deserves our full attention but rarely gets it unless you are a yoga practitioner. Breath is the most important of all the bodily functions and without it we simply are … Continue reading Oxygen and Cancer
Healing Ourselves with Oxygen
Oxygen therapy is as wonderful as it is because more oxygen translates into more cellular energy, more healing energy and more energy to help us feel relaxed and perform better in life. Importantly enough when ample oxygen rushes into oxygen deficient cells oxygen is no longer the limiting reagent for detoxification of cellular poisons that … Continue reading Healing Ourselves with Oxygen
Iodine, Metabolism and Oxygen
Though doctors and people do not normally associate iodine with oxygen, we have to see that iodine-carrying thyroid hormones are essential for oxygen-based metabolism. First increases of iodine and thyroid hormones increase red blood cell mass and increase the oxygen disassociation from hemoglobin.[1] Thyroid hormones have a significant influence on erythropoiesis, which is the process … Continue reading Iodine, Metabolism and Oxygen
Dr. von Ardenne on Cancer, Inflammation and Oxygen
Developed in the late 1960s by Professor von Ardenne, (a student of Dr. Otto Warburg, best known for his pioneering research on the connection between lack of oxygen and cancer), Oxygen Multistep Therapy combines oxygen therapy, drugs that facilitate intracellular oxygen turnover, and physical exercise adapted to individual performance levels. This unique therapy has diversified … Continue reading Dr. von Ardenne on Cancer, Inflammation and Oxygen
Main Reasons Iodine Supplementation is Essential
We knew a hundred years ago that we needed more iodine and governments started putting a tiny bit in table salt. It was not enough and after the nuclear accident at Fukushima, we need more because of the radioactive iodine released into the environment. Humans in the 21st Century have an absolute need for iodine … Continue reading Main Reasons Iodine Supplementation is Essential
Wonderful World of Bicarbonate and CO2
My book Sodium Bicarbonate is not only about sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), but also about magnesium bicarbonate and to a lesser degree potassium bicarbonate and calcium bicarbonate. However, the star of the show in this book is bicarbonate. The second star of the show is carbon dioxide (CO2). Most of the conjugate acid of bicarbonate … Continue reading Wonderful World of Bicarbonate and CO2
Natural Cures from the Kitchen
Awareness of the association between nutrition and disease is important not just for reducing risk of cancer but in helping people recover from it. The secret to recovery from all diseases is found in healing through the fulfillment of nutritional law. Doctors, blinded by pharmaceutical terrorism (the industry that just loves to poison people with … Continue reading Natural Cures from the Kitchen
Water: Dehydration
Water is one of the most important nutrients for children. All functions within the body require the presence of water. A well hydrated body enables these functions to occur quickly and efficiently. Dehydration happens when a person loses more fluids than he or she takes in. Human bodies are made up largely of water, so … Continue reading Water: Dehydration
The Pancreas, Bicarbonate and Diabetes
Bicarbonate physiology is entirely ignored in diabetes as it is in oncology though a wide range of clinicians use sodium bicarbonate for a host of medical problems. Who would stop long enough to think deeply enough to make the connection between acid producing diets (junk foods) and destruction of the pancreas after decades of obsessing … Continue reading The Pancreas, Bicarbonate and Diabetes
Reversing Insulin Resistance – The Insulin Magnesium Story
Magnesium is necessary for both the action of insulin and the manufacture of insulin. Reversing insulin resistance is the most basic first step to reversing diabetes and heart disease. Magnesium is a basic building block to life and is present in ionic form throughout the full landscape of human physiology. Without insulin though, magnesium doesn’t get transported … Continue reading Reversing Insulin Resistance – The Insulin Magnesium Story
