GSH supports health in many ways. Monitoring GSH levels in the cells is important to do before trouble comes calling in the form of illness. GSH is part cell guard dog and part cell mender. 

Glutathione and Radiation

Glutathione (GSH) is already in your body, but becomes depleted from physical stress, illness, aging, and the oxidative process. GSH is ammunition and top gun when it comes to anti-oxidative properties. Glutathione can trap a range of free radicals before they create havoc within the cells. It even offers protection against radiation. Inadequate intracellular GSH increases the risk of cancer from radiation.

A published report in the journal Radiology offer this: “radiation from a single whole-body scan is equal to 100 mammograms and is similar to the amount received by survivors of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan who were about 1 mile from the explosions.” according to radiation biologist, David J. Brenner of Columbia University.

Herbs intelligent design is evident. Leading the way in an underdeveloped category, which previous generations understood as natural healing, it is time to build on the basics of herbal medicine.

Healing Power

The forgotten healing power of both herbs and nutrient-dense foods is going to be the basis for successful revitalizing our health.

Getting right to work so real people can get real results means getting the information out. We live in a world that drains energy, vitality and strength. Modern living comes with a cost, that means you are bombarded with chemical pollutants, over-processed “food” and prescription drugs. Every organ in your body is getting along on inadequate nutrition. With a minimal amount of plant fiber, enzymes, vitamins and minerals we are expected to maintain our health.

Healthy Path

What everyone must understand is there is a healthier path. This doesn’t mean that you stop eating; just taking the faux food out of your diet will do wonders for your health. Concentrating on oral nutrition will give you what you need to thrive. Preserve cellular energy by giving your body the compounds that have a favorable effect on your metabolism, immunity, cell division, and hormone levels.

The crucial food sources and herbal adjuncts are available in their natural form. These are found in fruits, vegetables and herbs such as, ginger root, habanera pepper, figs, cayenne pepper, garlic hawthorn berry, Echinacea, and other antispasmodics, antibacterial,  anti-parasite and anti-fungal plants and herbs.

What some herbs do so well is correct and promote good digestive function, detoxifies and cleanses, reduces irritation and inflammation. To turn the page on your health what are not needed is chemicals, but raw organic food.

Pharmaceuticals can’t replace live food filled with vitamins, enzymes, minerals, and more. Because drugs don’t have any nutrition they are at best man made, artificial items riddled with all kinds of hormonal disruptors that produce unbalanced responses. At worst they aren’t going to make you wake up refreshed, invigorated and feeling great.

Herbal Medicine

The strongest most effective cleansing, detoxification comes from the plant and herb family that can not only eliminate symptoms but ailments. Ginger has the ability to relieve upset stomachs; peppermint is used as a gastric sedative and relieves problems associated with digestion. Ulva Ursi Leaf is a cleanser for kidneys and bladder. Other herbs that are used as diuretics are Corn Silk and Parsley Leaf.

Hawthorn Berry will increase blood flow and oxygen to the heart. Milk Thistle is used to protect the liver. Cayenne Pepper increases circulation. Then there are the vegetables that perform vital functions. Beetroots and spinach Leaf regenerate by supplying powerful body building nutrient rich substances. Wheat Grass and Barley Grass are a source of vitamins and minerals that increase energy levels, while improving digestion and detoxifying.

The health benefits of both herbs and foods from the plant kingdom are so extensive and endless that papers can be devoted to each one. This is high-tech healing that is nature’s way to keeping us alive and well. Over the last few decades we have stopped looking to this source and have chosen to ignore our birthright to be healthy without man made substances.

Chemotherapy Feeds Cancer, sounds strange, now learn the truth.

Have you ever wondered why advance cancer treatment fails to halt the spread of a tumor?

Cancer Feeds on

The reasons why mainstream cancer treatments so often fail, is that chemotherapy may be a cancer’s friend. Chemotherapy is a doubled edge sword. The effects of the treatment are deadly for many reasons.

The treatment alone can kill you and many times does. But, the deadly effects don’t stop there. Halting the spread of these cells has always been the Achilles’ heal of the cancer industry.

The public has a healthy fear of chemo and radiation treatment. Why people deteriorate on those protocols are three fold. One, the treatment many times doesn’t slow the spread, two it breaks down the immune system, and three it feeds the cancer cells.

Cancer can become immune to chemotherapy and use the drugs for a food supply. This next reason is the icing on the cake.

Researchers with the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Comprehensive Cancer Center and UAB Department of Chemistry have won an $805,000 grant from the U.S, Department of Defense Breast Cancer Research Program to study whether dead cancer cells left over after treatment encourage Cancer’s spread to other parts of the body.

The research centers on examining inactivated or altered genetic material (DNA) left in the body after breast-cancer cells are exposed to chemotherapy. UAB researches say the resulting altered DNA may be the factor that activates the spread of living cancer cells to distant locations in the body- a process called metastasis-through a specific molecular pathway.

“What if by killing cancer cells with chemotherapy we inadvertently induce DNA structures that make surviving cancers cells more invasive? The idea is tough to stomach,” said Katri Selender, M.D, PhD, and assistant professor of the UBA Division of Hematology and oncology and co-principal researcher on the grant.
