Excerpt:

Dr Aaron Katz is Director of Holisitic Urology at Columbia University Medical Center in NY. The impact of Oximation on DNA transcription is becoming more evident. Researchers at Stanford,MD Anderson,Johns Hopkins,and Columbia looking at prostate cancer seem to be ahead of other researchers looking at cancer. The upshot is that epidemiologically, what we see work for prostate cancer also works for breast cancer. This article is from the Winter edition of Holistic Primary Care.
There are approximately 200,000 new cases of prostate cancer diagnosed each year. The vast majority are caught at early stages— thanks to concerted screening efforts—and most can be controlled through a comprehensive multimodal holistic approach aimed at reducing inflammation, a key driver of the disease.

CANCER’S WORST ENEMY
By Attorney Jonathan Emord
Author of “The Rise of Tyranny”
July 26, 2010
NewsWithViews.com

The worst enemy cancer has is not some chemotherapy admixture, it is not surgery, and it is not radiation treatment. The worst enemy cancer has comes in the form of a brilliant, soft spoken internist, oncologist and immunologist in Lawrenceville, New Jersey. He is Dr. Charles B. Simone of the Simone Protective Cancer Center, author of Cancer and Nutrition: A Ten Point Plan to Reduce Your Chances of Getting Cancer (1982) and many other remarkable books on preventing and treating cancer. 

This gentle, unassuming man, approachable by everyone and possessed of an affable and compassionate manner, has prolonged the life of many cancer patients-long past the time their attending physicians thought possible. As he told me many years ago, when there is no known cure, you do not do everything imaginable to kill the cancer and thereby kill the patient, you do everything imaginable to manage the cancer and extend the life of the patient. In short, while many oncologists view incurable cancers as diseases to be conquered in which either the patient or the cancer will win (with the cancer almost always winning), Dr. Simone views incurable cancers as diseases to be managed for a lifetime (with the patient living to the maximum extent possible). Dr. Simone wants his patients to live with cancer, not die from it or from cancer treatment. He aims to give his patients longevity and quality of life.

This remarkable physician is known to Presidents, members of Congress, celebrities, and moguls worldwide, but comes from humble origins. Chuck Simone was the son of an auto mechanic. Chuck paid his way through eight years at the university, working 24 to 30 hours each weekend in the laboratory of a hospital. He was driven to become a physician from his earliest days, and he set out to achieve that mission without the slightest fear of obstacles, financial or academic. He graduated from Rutgers with highest honors (a B.S. in biological sciences) and then from Rutgers College of Medicine. He also earned the rare Masters of Medical Science degree from Rutgers while investigating the cancer killing properties of plant herbals. He trained in Internal Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic. He thereafter worked in the Immunology Branch and Medicine Branch and the Pharmacology Branch and Medicine Branch at the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health in Bethesda. He was an Associate Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology and Nuclear Medicine at Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, and since 1988, has been the Director of his own remarkable cancer clinic, the Simone Protective Cancer Center. 
While at NCI, he made critical scientific discoveries on the properties in the human anatomy responsible for killing aberrant cells. He uncovered the fundamental mechanism of how human white cells kill foreign cells. He helped demonstrate how “complement proteins” aid in killing. He demonstrated how adriamycin, an anti-cancer drug, operates at the cellular level. He conceived and developed the idea of splicing monoclonal antibodies to killing cells that seek out cancer cells, called directed effector cell killing.

Dr. Simone has quietly gained an international reputation, drawing people from all walks of life to his clinic. Among them are leading politicians, actors, actresses, and entrepreneurs. For example, he treated Michael Landon and Vice President Hubert Humphrey. He advised President Reagan on nutritional means to reduce the risk of cancer. When conventional methods fail, frequently word comes of Dr. Simone, and he arrives to improve the quality of care and the chance for greater life.

Dr. Simone was among the first to comprehend the significance of antioxidants and other nutrients in the treatment of cancer and has debunked the myth that nutrients reduce the effectiveness, or interfere with, conventional chemotherapy and radiation. To the contrary, he has shown that those therapies are improved in their effectiveness and patients are better able to endure them when nutritional therapy is used. 

He first discovered the association of nutrition and cancer when treating Vice President Humphrey in the late 1970’s. Through scientific research and medical practice, Dr. Simone came to find nutritional therapy, lifestyle modification, and exercise critical in the management of almost all cancers. In 1982 he published the definitive Cancer and Nutrition. In 1980 he founded the KidStart Prevention Program where he works with inner city churches to teach children nutrition and lifestyle habits that can reduce their risk of contracting cancer as well as means to detect and treat cancer.

Dr. Simone has designed nutritional formulations to improve hydration in athletes and in combat troops, including his Super Energy, hydration formula, proved effective in actual combat conditions in the Middle East. He now works with NCI on research that will lead to cancer detection as much as two years earlier than is presently possible. His research is showing that proteomic patterns can reveal cancer much earlier than present techniques of diagnosis.

My knowledge of Dr. Simone is far from simply academic, it is personal. My mother, Jeanette Emord, was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia in 1984 at the age of 57. Her attending oncologist advised her coldly that she could expect to live approximately five years past that date of diagnosis. With that death sentence, she like most cancer patients presumed there was nothing that could be done to alter the timeline. 

To be fair, everyone diagnosed with the same disease in her treatment group who followed the standard chemotherapy died within five years of diagnosis. But thanks to Dr. Simone, my mother escaped that fate. She lived and lived well, to the age of 83. Repeatedly during her illness, conventional physicians would recommend a specific course of treatment or would send her home presuming death imminent, and Dr. Simone would intervene, correcting the errors and restoring her to health. He saved my mother’s life no fewer than four times. In each instance, had the advice of attending physicians been followed, she would have died at a much earlier age. It remains the case that the choice of physician often determines the outcome of each struggle with terminal illness.

Under Dr. Simone’s constant care through the years my mother, a genius who loved life and contributed selflessly to the lives of others, enjoyed a high quality of life. That was made possible because of a physician tirelessly dedicated to service, driven by a love of humanity and an intense desire to make a difference in each life that comes before him. On behalf of all who have overcome a medical death sentence thanks to the extraordinary interventions of Dr. Simone, I say thank you.

Chronic Lyme Disease: Myth or Reality? http://lymebook.com/fight/chronic-lyme-disease-myth-or-reality/ http://lymebook.com/fight/chronic-lyme-disease-myth-or-reality/#respond Sun, 06 Dec 2009 04:16:28 +0000 http://lymebook.com/fight/?p=622

Linda’s comment:  The FIGHT program is a perfect example of how you can fight Lyme disease.  As Dr Patricia Gerbarg, MD has found out.  She has not experienced the FIGHT program to my knowledge, but the protocols she mentioned are all part of the FIGHT program.  It is a must that we reduce the total body burden of toxins and pathogens to fight the Lyme critters.  Lyme loves heavy metals.  We are slammed every time we walk out our front doors with 500 to 600 environmental toxins.  It is a daily battle, but I found the FIGHT program made this all very easy.  I only wish I had  the knowledge of the FIGHT program with the first Lyme infection.

I have never taken any antibiotics and don’t intend to, but I focused on the lifelong daily detox program FIGHT and cleaned up my lifestyle, home and diet.  I got rid of all the GMO foods, gluten, sugar, caffeine, alcohol and my body shakes if I pass a fast-food restaurant….the smell turns my stomach.  Once you clean  up your diet and clean up your homestead, you begin to feel better….Lifestyle is probably one of the hardest things I have ever done….Yes, I cheat, but at least now I have learned to cheat. and can neutralize a toxic food if I eat it.  Once you begin to feel better it makes the journey of cleaning up much easier. Just give the FIGHT program 90 days and you too will feel the difference.

Regards, Linda


Chronic Lyme Disease: Myth or Reality?

By Mehmet Oz, MD

Mehmet Oz, MD, host of The Dr. Oz Show, sorts out the truth. Lyme disease, a bacterial infection transmitted by the bite of a deer tick, can cause a variety of flu-like symptoms-achy joints, fatigue, fever, headache. But chronic Lyme disease is a different beast. Experts can’t agree on a case definition-or if the condition exists at all. What’s clear is that some Lyme patients, even after taking the standard treatment of antibiotics, continue to suffer long-term and often serious health problems, including poor mental function, migratory joint pain, and sleep disturbances. Whether the condition is an autoimmune or nervous system response triggered by the now-eradicated infection (sometimes called post-Lyme disease syndrome), or a chronic case of the disease directly attributable to an ongoing infection depends on whom you ask-as does the treatment.

The Case for Diagnosing CLD

“There is absolutely no doubt chronic Lyme disease [CLD] exists,” says Richard Horowitz, MD, president of the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Educational Foundation. What’s more, he adds, many of those who contract Lyme disease can also have tick-borne coinfections like babesiosis, caused by parasites, and their symptoms can easily be mistaken for those of other ailments such as chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. “Like syphilis, chronic Lyme disease is a great imitator,” Horowitz notes. He has seen more than 11,000 patients whose CLD he has helped to pinpoint using his own broad differential diagnosis, which looks at all possible causes of symptoms. Along with specific treatments for any overlapping conditions, he often prescribes a combination of targeted antibiotics to beat the infection, and says he has seen dramatic recoveries.

The Case Against Diagnosing CLD

“There’s simply no scientific evidence that these symptoms are caused by an ongoing infection of Lyme disease,” says John Halperin, MD, chair of the department of neurosciences at Overlook Hospital in Summit, New Jersey, and professor of neurology at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine. Halperin agrees that some Lyme disease patients can experience real, ongoing health issues. However, he says, “The best guess is that it has to do with how our nervous systems respond to different stressors. It’s probably due to a fundamental neurobiological trait of some people.” Halperin believes the way to treat the problem is symptomatically. That means everything from therapy for depression to surgery for severe arthritis-but not months of antibiotics, which can result in serious side effects, according to National Institutes of Health-funded studies.

Dr. Oz Says…

Let’s get past the fundamental argument over whether this is a chronic condition or an autoimmune response by acknowledging that it could be both. Someday we might discover that ticks aren’t giving people just a bacterial infection but also a virus or a hybrid bug. Patricia Gerbarg, MD, is the coauthor of How to Use Herbs, Nutrients, and Yoga in Mental Health Care as well as a former Lyme patient. What she found, and what I support, is that certain supplements strengthen the body’s ability to repair itself from the long-term problems associated with CLD. Taking vitamin B12, coenzyme Q10, chromium, folate, omega-3 fatty acids, and herbs such as Rhodiola rosea can improve energy and help with cellular repair-all key in recovering from conditions that can be as resistant as Lyme disease.

worst fears about Chinese drywall confirmed… http://lymebook.com/fight/worst-fears-about-chinese-drywall-confirmed/ http://lymebook.com/fight/worst-fears-about-chinese-drywall-confirmed/#respond Sun, 29 Nov 2009 05:42:43 +0000 http://lymebook.com/fight/?p=577 Linda’s comment’s:  It isn’t just Chinese drywall, drywall in general contains formaldehyde and that is just as dangerous.  There are companies that have what we call “clean” drywall.  If you can’t find one, let your drywall sit outside in the hottest sun for several days, and/or rent an Ozone machine to outgas the drywall.  You would of course have to leave your home while the Ozone machine is running.

Don’t forget that kitchen cabinets also are full of Formaldehyde.  Be careful of grout fillings, glue, and carpets.  Many are not chemical sensitive and your body might not react to these chemicals, but that is not good either, as you have NO warning.  At least if you are chemical sensitivity your body lets you know pretty quickly.  I personally am like a Canary.  I can walk into a building, room, new construction, even retail stores and sense these dangerous chemicals.  Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target and most clothing stores are full of pesticides from the clothing they are selling.  Remember to wash clothes, etc., etc., at least 3 times before wearing.  Please don’t look at your body reaction as a burden, be thankful that your body reacts, so that you can remove yourself.  When I buy new tires for my car I react to the tires.  Bicycle shops are out.

Just remember that these are very harmful chemicals and be thankful that you react.  Being an informed person could very well save your life.  Why now and not previous years?  The chemicals that are used are made with cheap materials, that were not used years ago.  Be careful of stores like Lowe’s and Home Depot, they are full of pesticides,herbicides,paints, treated woods and more.

They say that 85% of Cancers today are environmental.  I provide my body with the right detox methods, so I am neutralizing these chemical assaults, while replenishing my body with the right herbals, supplements and nutrients.  Buyer Beware!!

Linda

CPSC study confirms homeowner’s worst fears about Chinese drywall

Tom Kraeutlerhttp://www.walletpop.com/blog/bloggers/tom-kraeutler/rss.xml
Nov 24th 2009 at 3:00PM http://www.tipd.com/submit.php?url=http://www.walletpop.com/blog/2009/11/24/cpsc-study-confirms-homeowners-worst-fears-about-chinese-drywal/?icid=main|htmlws-main-n|dl4|link4|http%3A%2F%2Fwww.walletpop.com%2Fblog%2F2009%2F11%2F24%2Fcpsc-study-confirms-homeowners-worst-fears-about-chinese-drywal%2F More Text SizeAAA

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3197/2945049599_d81421fe7f.jpgA study of 51 homes released this week by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) found a strong association between homes with Chinese-made drywall and levels corrosive hydrogen sulfide, which gives off a smell similar to rotten eggs.

It was the largest investigation ever taken on by the CPSC, costing $3.5 million and involving 15% of the staff, according to the CPSC.

CPSC has received more than 2,000 complaints from homeowners in 32 states, reporting that their health had been adversely affected by odors given off by the suspect material. Victims also reported blackening or corrosion of metal in their homes, including electrical wiring, appliances and air conditioning systems. The complaints stem from homes built largely in 2006 and 2007, following an unexpected demand for building materials spurred on by the destructive hurricane seasons of 2004 and 2005.

By confirming the corrosive effects of the Chinese sourced drywall, the CPSC hopes to develop protocols that will identify homes with the problem material and determine effective remediation methods. “Ongoing studies will examine health and safety effects, but we are now ready to get to work fixing this problem,”CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum said in a press release.

To date though, the CPSC states it remains difficult to estimate the total number of homes that contain the toxic drywall and recently reached out to the governors of all 50 states to assemble the fullest possible accounting. Together with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, CPSC is also monitoring imports and believes no new Chinese drywall has entered the United States in 2009.

What to do if you suspect your house has Chinese drywall
If you have reason to believe that your home was built with Chinese drywall, the CPSC recommends you take the following four steps:

  1. If you are suffering from the health symptoms described as common to the reports of exposure to problem drywall, please consult your physician as soon as possible. If you experience any of the electrical or fire safety concerns described as common to the reports of exposure to problem drywall, please consult your local gas or electric supplier and a licensed electrician or building inspector as soon as possible.
  2. Contact your State and local authorities to report your concerns and get direction on any help or resources in your area.
  3. Report your concerns to the CPSC using this form.
  4. Consider contacting your insurance company and homebuilder to report your concerns.

For more information on the problem and to monitor ongoing progress in the investigation, go to the CPSC’s Drywall Information Center.
