I recently watched a movie about Dr. Burzynski and his cancer treatments with his patented Antineoplastons. Has to do with his discovery of people without cancer had something in their blood that people with cancer did not have. Something to do with Peptides and Amino Acids. I can't find out why some people have this and some people don't, or how to find out if one has them or not, and if not

Try researching what Iodine can do especially during pregnancy. If you don't like the idea of taking Iodine supplements (if you take prenatal vits make sure to find out if and how much Iodine they contain) you could eat more seafoods like dried seaweeds in salads, or as snacks. Congrats! Love, Prism

I don't think it's that easy really, just say no to salt and yes to lots of celery. I believe it has more to do with what you don't put in your body and not what you do put in. Some people like to think that food is medicine and I don't really think that's the case so much. If what you ate everyday acted like the medicine of how we've come to think of it as that wouldn't be very healthful

Geez...this used to be a place one could get actual support when one asked for it from like minded people. Now it's full of contentious opinions and while I don't mind if it's a thread for that reason but this was a thread simply to have a simple little juice fast and some like minded company. I'd say keep your adverse opinions to yourselves on a thread like this..it's not welcomed. I've d

When I first went raw I had a lot of health issues, including high blood pressure. I visited an ND instead of a Dr. and she treated it with a homeopath remedy while I lost weight, walked a lot, juiced greens, and ate all raw and then very high raw. I lost 60 lbs. the first 6 months, and a total of 71 lbs. in a years time. My blood pressure went down. I was fine for about 3 years, then things h

Just an update. I am fasting and using fresh oranges for my juice. I'm on my 2nd day and feeling really good. The orange juice isn't bothering me in any way. I am drinking plenty of pure water, and I also have warm cups of herbal peppermint tea. Love, Prism

That's a great place to be Panchito..happy and satisfied with your state of health. I'm aiming for that again. Had it, then lost it..working on getting back to that state of health. My 2nd day now and I've juiced 4 oranges to start my morning. I had a headache in middle of night and I did take an aspirin..then I slept really well. I also had taken 2 charcoal capsules a few hours before to help

I'm a little surprised that there's just me on this thread..usually there's at least a couple people wanting to fast. That's ok..I'm in middle of my first day and I have slight headache but I'm sticking with the orange juice fast. Love, Prism

I like a 3 day fast to get off to a clean start with doing a higher percentage of raw if not 100% raw. Perhaps when one is near perfection than a fast could be detrimental but I'm hardly that. When I end my juice fast I plan on being all raw and having my daily green juice and or smoothies once again. My fast has officially begun. Love, Prism

I love cast iron cookware. All you have to to is 'season' it when brand new. Oil it lightly and stick in 350 degree oven for an hour. That's all there is to that. Maybe once a year do it again. After you clean it, with whatever you like, just smear some olive oil on the inside and that's all. Sorry Coco..I don't know of which kind of 'green' pans you are asking about. I like ceramic or glas

I'm starting a juice fast Friday November 30th. It will last at least 3 days, then I'll see if I can keep going. I really want to do 14 days. Anyone wanting to join along, you can post your experiences here. I'm starting off with fresh orange juice, then maybe green apple on 2nd day, then orange juice on 3rd day. If that works well and I feel I can keep going I'll trade between the two fruits

Juice fasting won't make me sick in the way you intimate it does you, and it's not what I asked anyway. I've decided to go with orange juice the first day, then see what I feel like the second day. I only want fresh fruit juices, pure water and maybe some peppermint tea. If anyone wants to join along I'll post the thread on "Other Health Related" forum here. Love, Prism

I'd also like to know how much juice per day I should drink. I read a pint a day. That doesn't seem like much to me. I would be drinking pure water also thru the day. Love, Prism

I plan on starting a 3 day orange juice fast on Dec. 1st. I read that either I should use other juice, maybe apple juice (which is ok with me) because it said orange juice would be too acidic. I would like some opinions or anyone that has done an orange juice fast. Either apples or oranges in my blender for juice..which sounds best? Also if anyone wants to join me..we could post a new thread f

I live in Mendocino County and didn't know until you posted that they ban GMO foods! I'll have to read up on what that means exactly for the people here. No planting of gmo seeds, no gmo foods in stores, or both? Thanks for that Riverhousebill. Love, Prism

Peru’s Plenary Session of the Congress made the decision despite previous governmental pushes for GM legalization. Anibal Huerta,

When I get that dry cough or too much mucus (haven't had it for a very long time..prob. several years) I use a syringe bulb with very warm water and salt and do a nose irrigation. Then as the liquid goes to back of throat I cough it out thru my mouth. This also hydrates the passages. You can use a couple drops of Lugol's Iodine in the warm water. That helps with sinus problems and infections. Som

Depending on your finances, you could take a 'vacation' at a health type resort that has holistic protocols such as raw foods, colonics, massages, etc. 2 days to 30 days. People here are going to ask if she eats dairy products, meats, etc. and how much. Does she smoke? They are a great help here but the more info. you can supply the better they can give suggestions.

Yes, thanks Powerlifer for this info. My friend had blood tests done and it came back with high white blood cell count and low on electrolytes. It's difficult for them to find an infection and I don't know why that is. It takes them some days it seems. Love, Prism

I did take a look at the Triphala and would you recommend the powder or capsules? Price seems very reasonable. I would think that some herbs like slippery elm and marshmallow would be soothing and helpful to the colon. Teas are always for me a short term use anyway. Love, Prism

That's too true Panchito. I already have backed off being too concerned with regard to my friend's health. This particular friend likes the caregiving aspect of being needy and while I know he's not faking anything, he does get more dramatic the more concern I show. I'm not one to judge how people live their lives. I have so much to work on myself that how can I judge others. I've let

Panchito, I've suggested strongly on getting to a hydro-therapist for colonics. I told him at least 1, but 1 every week for 6 weeks would be great. What is it about enemas that make one squeamish..his ex-wife is terminal (that is from the Dr.s) with colon cancer and like my other friend is taking some years to get to the terminal part. After 8 years living with colon cancer my friend died.

I have a friend who is 72 yrs. old, he's a SAD eater, and he's diabetic. This year he has been in the hospital with sepsis from e.coli. He takes various medications for the 'typical' American who eats SAD. He got sick enough recently to think he may be back in the hospital. It finally occurred to me that he's not getting e.coli from ingesting it from foods, or other unclean sources but that hi

You could keep a bottle of activated charcoal in capsule form, that way you can empty the contents of 1 or 2 caps in a cup add some water and one would drink that. It's kid and pet friendly, does no harm, helps with lots of things including tummy aches. In fact last night my little dog had a tummy upset in middle of night last night, so I mixed some up and she licked it off my fingers. Wa
