cover Cancer: Curing the Incurable by William Donald Kelley DDS A book with 30 years of planning for 33,000 patients and developing the scientific paradigm for the proper cure and treatment of cancer without surgery, chemotherapy or radiation. This book is not about remission. It is about a cure. This book will teach one how to beat cancer and other age related diseases so you can heal your body now and live a longer and healthier life. Much of Dr. Kelley's protocol is based on consuming almost 100% raw foods as well as supplemental enzymes during the initial stages of healing.

cover The Living Foods Lifestyle by Brenda Cobb  "Brenda Cobb has written an inspiring story, describing her recovery from a diagnosis of cancer and her founding of a school to teach the Living Foods Lifestyle to others. In her book, Brenda includes many stories from her students, who have recovered from many chronic diseases, including arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, asthma, AIDS, depression, Bell's Palsy, obesity, allergies, and Candida. Brenda reviews the causes of disease, discussing the many ways toxicity and deficiency have found their way into the modern lifestyle. She then discusses why raw and living foods are healing, and provides a detailed description of the various elements of the lifestyle. In her chapter on Body-Mind-Spirit, Brenda delves into the importance of cleaning the colon and thinking positively. This forms an important element in the Lifestyle and the healing process. Next, Brenda tells how to set up and maintain a kitchen for the Living Foods Lifestyle. Formerly a gourmet cook, Brenda provides detailed recipes for the four basic healing foods and an additional 54 recipes. She includes main dishes, salads, dressings, desserts, crackers and cookies. Finally, Brenda provides a complete description of the 10 day program at her Institute in Atlanta, in which students are able to detoxify and begin their healing process. In short, The Living Foods Lifestyle is a very complete guide to the Lifestyle. After reading this book, people will be able to do the program on their own. " "Information Everyone Needs for Optimal Health! I'm so grateful that Brenda has taken the opportunity to share the road from disease to health for all who are interested! In 1979, I was diagnosed with cancer and given 6 months to live by 3 different doctors at Stanford University who were furious that I would not submit to surgery, chemo and radiation. Brenda did what I and many others have done over the years to get our health back. People who are sick today can do it too! But the best case scenario would be that many of you will adopt Raw and Living Foods as a preventive measure and not wait until your body is compromised and on the verge of expiration! Blessings to all!

In her book, you will find hope, recipes, testimonials, and common sense."
cover The Cure for All Diseases [LARGE PRINT] by Dr. Hulda Regehr Clark "Dr. Clark saved my life!  Approximately 3 years ago I bought the book in a health store. They also had zappers available. I had suffered from severe, debilitating chronic depression, chronic fatigue syndrome, horrible allergies, and gastrointestinal troubles (constipation, gas & bloating). When I read that depression was the result of roundworm infestation in the brain, I was sickened. I used the zapper every evening. At first I was fatigued after its use, and my elimination was nothing like before (PUTRID & A LOT OF WEIRD STUFF). After approximately 4 days, I felt like a different person. The only way to describe it was that it was sunny--everything around me, and I felt great--full of energy, hope, happiness and confidence. These were not attributes I had before I used the zapper....I guarantee to you all, whether you understand it or not, use it...you will be so glad...I am 42 now, and I am the healthiest person I know. I never get sick...my own children, 23 and 19, call me a machine, because I have more stamina and energy than they do...I am healthier and happier than either of them. Yet they still don't get it...I'm just glad I did....all those years of misery had led me to contemplate suicide...I'm so grateful that I found this great tool before I did something so detrimental to myself and my family....TRY IT....WHATEVER YOUR AILMENTS."  Reviewed by Patricia Smith from Abilene, TX
 
cover The Cure for All Cancers: Including over 100 Case Histories of Persons Cured [LARGE PRINT] by Hulda Regehr Clark "It worked for me. Why aren't any Research Centers Listening? I have a degree in Biology. I understand perfectly her Flat Worm theory. Cancer is Cancer because some tissue cells grow independently from the original pattern of the Body. The thing that makes cells "grow" is not a mystery to Science. It is "Growth Hormone" Now, every creature, great or small, produces its own brand of Growth Hormone precisely so they can develop their own life cycle. Parasites, unlike most other life forms, has three or four stages of growth. (Just like the butterflies were also a worm.) Parasites have different stages, each developing inside its own carrier. We take our dog or cat to the Vet to be dewormed don't we? So why not believe what Dr Clark is saying? The bug simply hatches in the wrong place and starts immediately to produce its own brand of Hormone. The body cells around the bug don't know any better and react to the stimulus. They grow wild and out of control. "An instant tumor" My husband started on the herbal cure one week after being diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. He flatly refused the only option given to him by the Doctors. "Cut it out and shelve it" they said. "The sooner, the better". Three months after the diagnosis, the PSA Level dropped to normal. This was over three years ago. Physical exams are normal. No tumor was found. I don't feel Dr Clark is exploiting anyone since she gives you all the information you need to make your own remedies and as economically as possible.

For the first time, someone has taken the time to look at the etiology for disease that seems to transcend standard medical blindness regarding cancer. Of all the videos I've watched and all the 25 cent advice I've gotten, this promises to do the job of ridding myself and others of the underlying cause for cancer. I'm absolutely going to follow the course recommended for changing the physical condition that has created the ripe opportunity for cancer to manifest itself in my body. I'm also going to get every member of my immediate family on this regimen, and give copies of this book to my friends, and extended family members." Reviewed byJohn M.

cover The Cure For All Advanced Cancers [LARGE PRINT] by Hulda Regehr Clark "Ethics or economy? That is the question. Give up your oncologist if you want to cure yourself of cancer.  Make the choice! Either you undergo a treatment of drugs, radiation and surgery which is worse than the disease itself, (success rates are worse than doing NOTHING) or you undergo a comprehensive treatment that is 95% successful. In 100 years we have gone from 1 person in 8000 getting cancer to almost 1 in 2! Obviously the cause of this disease is the multiple change factors of our food supply, environment and lifestyle. This book will show you ALL of these! This is a top notch protocol from a brilliant scientist. This treatment is so effective it is catching on like wildfire in Germany, Switzerland, Norway, Rome, Mexico etc. (Pope John Paul II physician Dr.Adolpho Panfilli follows it!) Why the popularity there and not in the western world? Perhaps cancer is a very lucrative business like cars or electronics? There is undoubtedly more money to be made off of "many" office appointments, drugs, operations, computer equipment scans(and the equipment itself.) Lets not forget the business of university which keeps young budding scholars adding to the "latest technology" in equipment and research to cure this menace. Do you not see how all this is connected? Simple answer to a simple question, "What are we relying on to find the cure to cancer?" Answer: Our ECONOMY! Unfortunately the words "cure" and "economy" don't fit very well! The word "economy" is a little more synonymous with "suffering."

Some dentists are replacing the amalgam with composite and that can be even better when if it is done correctly.(Hal Huggins Protocol) Dr. Jerome tells all and adds more to the story, explaining how you can lose your quality of life with root canals and other metals in the mouth.

cover Amalgam Illness, Diagnosis and Treatment : What You Can Do to Get Better, How Your Doctor Can Help by Andrew Hall Cutler  "Amalgam Illness:Everything you need to know. Amalgam Illness, Diagnosis and Treatment by Andrew Cutler is by far and away the best book on this subject I have read. It not only directs one in making this difficult diagnosis but clearly explains how mercury causes multiple abnormalities in the chemistry of the body. I especially liked the coverage of the effects of mercury on the endocrine system. Mercury's multiple deleterious effects on the body are covered here as are the means to treat this condition. Dr. Cutler explains which treatment strategies are likely to work and which could make the patient worse. The supplements and medications likely to be helpful in treating amalgam illness are clearly enunciated as are the steps those poisoned with mercury need to take to retake control of their lives. At a time when so many people suffer from fatigue, malaise, depression, and diseases of unknown origin for which no specific cause can be pinpointed, the possibility that heavy metal poisoning may be related to their medical conditions needs consideration. With the controversy regarding mercury effects on health coming to the forefront, Dr. Cutler's clear and concise book on the adverse effects of mercury is especially timely. It has detailed descriptions of chemistry and physiology making it valuable reading for the clinician and layman alike. It is well-referenced with excellent diagrams. I would highly recommend it to anyone trying to gain an understanding of the far reaching effects of mercury on the human body.Reviewed by Kenneth Sokolski, M.D. from Irvine, California
cover It's All in Your Head: The Link Between Mercury Amalgams and Illness by Dr. Hal A. Huggins "This book is a must before you get your amalgams removed! Hal Huggins has certainly done his homework on the mercury toxicity issue, and is very thorough in his discussion of the recommended procedures for amalgam removal. He covers the nutritional and disease aspects of how mercury affects the body, and also touches on the political aspects of this issue, the ADA's stance on mercury, and why their view is flawed. He discusses individual cases to show how removal of amalgams has resulted in improvement in those with "incurable" diseases. Anyone who is curious about the possibility that their dental fillings are the cause of their health woes needs to investigate further, and the most prudent will get rid of all mercury fillings. Hal Huggins has done the public a great service by exposing what the American Dental Association has hidden from us, and it is obvious that his sole purpose is to protect the public, regardless of the personal cost to him, and offers assistance in finding the appropriate dental care providers in your area."

cover Elements of Danger: Protect Yourself Against the Hazards of Modern Dentistry by Morton Walker, D.P.M,  "Medical journalist Morton Walker, D.P.M., has an impressive list of credentials. He's written more than 70 books, fourteen of which were international bestsellers, has published more than twenty-two hundred magazine and newspaper articles, and appeared in numerous TV and radio talk shows. He's also received several awards and honors from various medical groups. In his latest book, Elements of Danger: Protect Yourself Against the Hazards of Modern Dentistry, Dr. Walker takes on the dental profession. He focuses on the practice of using metal fillings, but also discusses other procedures, like root canals. He says he found a "paradox, for the nature of dental care among industrialized nations has our dental health providers reacting to disease rather than keeping people's mouths functioning healthfully and well." He maintains that most dentists don't look at the patient as a complete individual or dental health as a part of overall good health. Dr. Walker offers a thorough discussion of the potential problems of using metal fillings, especially those containing mercury. He includes a questionnaire that will help readers determine if their fillings are adversely affecting their health. He lists thirty symptoms of metal toxicity, including memory problems, depression, insomnia, heartburn, headaches, and fatigue. Root canals can also lead to myriad health problems, particularly infection which can affect other parts of the body, and deterioration of the jawbone. He also includes a section on the dangers of fluoridation, reminding readers that fluoride is "an industrial waste product commonly sold as poison for killing rats and insects." He notes that the Food and Drug Administration now requires a warning label on all fluoridated toothpastes, advising consumers to contact a Poison Control Center if the toothpaste is accidentally swallowed. The final section of the book describes natural ways of achieving and maintaining good dental health, including guidelines for choosing a dentist that uses safe and non-toxic procedures. Dr. Walker also includes a list of resources. Elements of Danger is must reading for those who have had or are contemplating metal fillings, root canals, or fluoridation. Get a copy for yourself, and an additional copy for loved ones who have had dental work, especially those with unexplained symptoms of illness."  Reviewed by sismith from Yuma, AZ

Thorough coverage of this valuable research, as well as the reasons for its cover-up are made known. Dr. Meinig explains how bacterial infections and the toxins they emit travel from the dentin in the root filled tooth to other parts of the body, causing systemic focal infections. These infections may also originate from gum infections, infected tonsils or tonsil tags, and tooth pocket infections resulting from extractions. Many body organs and systems have been associated with focal infection from root canal bacteria. Many case histories are presented. Some of the ones covered are heart and circulatory, bladder, kidneys, ovaries, testicles, and arthritis. The book is written for the lay person to read with a minimum of technical jargon.

By the next day, I had consulted the ACAM site, www.acam.org, to do a search for a local doctor who would do chelation. A few days later, the doctor did a full-body Doppler test which showed that my husband had 80% blockage of his carotid arteries. (A second Doppler test done by a different doctor on a different machine a week later, gave the same results.) Doc also took a hair sample. Lab analysis showed that Jon's hair (and therefore his body) was loaded with toxic metals, from a lifetime of working in a machine shop. He got chelated after checking out the safety of the alternatives (grim). Chelation was cheap, safe, and 7 weeks later, my husband's blockages were gone. He is hale and hearty today.  Guess what, chelation will also work beautifully and quickly AFTER someone has had a stroke, too. I just wish the FDA would see the light and fast-track the huge chelation study that has been sitting on their desk gathering dust for many years now.

Chelation, a technique that has been around for several decades, is done in a doctor's office: it cleans out arteries, and also pulls dangerous heavy metals from the body.

Researchers now assume that, because they found drugs that kill microbes, they can find other drugs that will "kill" metabolic diseases, such as heart attack, stroke, diabetes, arthritis, kidney failure, etc. They're looking for what Paul Ehrlich called "magic bullets." But they won't find any "magic bullets" for these degenerative diseases, because there's nothing to kill. These diseases all have complex cause-and-effect chains that disrupt our body chemistry. Unless we eliminate what we're doing to cause these disruptions, we can't prevent these diseases. So what can we do about metabolic disorders? Weston A. Price and Denis Burkitt, among others, found the answer to this question. Their studies showed first, that Third World peoples are almost entirely immune to our degenerative diseases and second, that when those peoples switch from their traditional natural foods to our factory-produced junk food, they come down with all the metabolic diseases that are rampant in our society. This means that our hospitals are full of people who could have avoided their agonizing and often fatal ailments if only they had stayed with the natural foods of our ancestors. But the knowledge that would have saved these patients has been ignored by our medical researchers who are futilely chasing the will o' the wisp of magic-bullet cures that don't exist.

In The Healing Sun: Sunlight And Health In The 21st Century, Richard Hobday shows how the sun is central to human health and well-being. He explains that sunlit houses can help prevent disease, make us feel happier, and save energy; that sunlight can help prevent and heal many common (and often fatal) disease like breast cancer, heart disease, multiple sclerosis and osteoporosis; that sunlight was used successfully to speed up the healing of wounds before the invention of antibiotics; tanning moderately throughout the year is better than avoiding the sun altogether; sudden bursts of strong solar radiation are unnatural and dangerous, protection needs to be built up slowly, early morning sunlight in cool temperatures is particular beneficial to the body; sunlight hospital rooms provide a better environment for the treatment of clinically depressed people; prolonged exposure to artificial light puts the body under great stress; and much, much more. The Healing Sun is a unique and invaluable contribution to personal and professional alternative health and medical reference collections. Reviewed by Midwest Book Review from Oregon, Wisconsin
cover Light: Medicine of the Future by Jacob Liberman "Jacob Liberman, who has doctorates in both optometry and vision science, says that the people who live on Earth evolved to thrive under the light put forth by our sun. He says, therefore, that we potentially harm ourselves when we hide from sunlight. In Light: Medicine Of The Future: How We Can Use It To Heal Ourselves Now, he explains how to utilize the therapeutic benefits of light. Dr. Liberman says that "light is the basic component from which all life originates, develops, heals, and evolves." Everything that humans do is affected in some way by light. Light has been used for healing since the time of ancient Egypt. Modern scientists began recognizing the benefits of light therapy in the late 1700's. Although many people believe the ultraviolet (UV) light is harmful, Dr. Liberman maintains our bodies need at least a small amount of UV light in order to function properly. He cites studies which indicate that, due to all the ways in which we block sunlight from our lives, including wearing sunglasses designed to block out UV rays, "it is possible that we are unknowingly contributing to the increased incidence of blindness and eye disease in this country." Dr. Liberman does warn against looking at the sun directly, or exposing ourselves to it between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., but emphasizes that light is a nutrient for the body. He says people need to be outside in natural light, without sunglasses or sun block, for a minimum of one hour a day. He warns that warm-white and cool-white fluorescents "should absolutely be avoided." People who cannot get outside regularly need to equip their work areas with full-spectrum light fixtures. Syntonics is the name given to light therapy, which involves utilizing specific colors for healing specific ailments. Dr. Liberman discusses its benefits in treating vision problems, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), cancer, and learning disabilities. He says that "as we continue to discover and understand the role that light plays in our lives, its use as both a therapeutic and preventive tool will become more evident." Because each individual is different, Light: Medicine of the Future doesn't get into prescribing particular colors for each potential illness. It is an invaluable reference, however, for all those interested in natural healing. Extensive appendices provide sources of supplies and a listing of light therapy practitioners."

  cover Confessions of a Medical Heretic by Robert S. Mendelsohn   "Deadly Facts... Dr. Mendelsohn pulls no punches in this fabulous critique of the largely harmful and deadly practices of Western style medicine. Even though the book is now 20 years old, its message rings just as loud and true today. He goes right for the jugular and deservedly so. I've avoided "modern" medicine and doctors as much as possible for several years now and I'm healthier than I've ever been. It's been so long now that I can't remember the last time I took any prescription drugs. I rely instead on my "physician within", and it's amazing the intelligence and effectiveness of this innate ability.

"My most dramatic example of self-healing has to be the huge improvement in my vision (from 20/600 to the range of 20/30 to 20/40 and still improving!) using natural methods described in the fabulous book, Relearning to See. The author of this holistic healing book quoted excerpts from Dr. Mendelsohn which struck such a chord that I just had to buy Confessions of a Medical Heretic to read more. It hasn't disappointed. A news item today warned of the fatal dangers of medical errors. According to a study conducted by the Institute of Medicine, part of the Academy of Sciences, each year in U.S. hospitals anywhere from 44,000 to 100,000 deaths occur that are attributed to medical mistakes. Even using the lower estimate, this means that more people die each year from medical errors than from highway accidents, breast cancer or AIDS. The Institute should have saved the bother and expense of doing the study and referred to Dr. Mendelsohn's book instead. He wrote about these same dangers and gave examples of mortality rates dropping significantly when doctors went on strike. Your well-being rests with you and should not be relinquished to the so-called "experts" and "specialists". This book is an excellent guide on the road to taking back control of your health"  Reviewed by "a reader from Canada"
