The Budwig Diet, meaning the Budwig Protocol (it is actually not a “diet,” but rather a specific mixture) is necessary for many alternative treatments; from type 2 diabetes to cancer to heart disease to auto-immune diseases, etc.
Its purpose is to energize the cells by restoring the natural electrical balance in the cell. Many human diseases are caused by “sick cells” which have lost their normal electrical balance; generally via a lower ATP energy in the cell’s mitochondria.
One thing to understand, and this is critical, is that the WHOLE purpose of the Budwig Diet is to convert oil-soluble omega-3 fatty acids into water-soluble omega-3 fatty acids.
This is why it is so important to add things to the mixture in the right order. If you mix them in the wrong order you may lose a lot of the opportunity to convert the oil-soluble omega-3s into water soluble-omega-3s.  Since someone may “hit” this article directly from the Internet, here are a few resources on the theory behind the Budwig Diet and the use of the Budwig Diet. 

Here is an article on the Budwig Diet by cancer researcher Mike Vrentas:
Budwig Diet
Here is another article on the Budwig Diet which was written by another Budwig expert:
Healing Cancer Naturally
Here is a DVD which details anentire day on the BudwigProtocol:
Entire Day on the Budwig

The IngredientsHere are the ingredients to make the Budwig Diet and how to mix them together.
Item #1: Refrigerated, Liquid Flaxseed OilThis is generally purchased at a health food store. For people who do not live near a health food store they can order it over the Internet. Even if it takes a few days of travel to arrive at your house, leaving it unrefrigerated for this period should not affect the product. But after it arrives refrigerate it.
The most popular brand is Barlean’s Flax Oil, but there are other brands. The key is that it is liquid and hasfar moreomega 3s than omega 6s. For example, my bottle (Barlean’s) has 6,200 mg of omega 3s to 1,810 mg of omega 6s. The reason for this ratio is that a normal diet will have far more omega 6 than omega 3, thus the supplement must havefar more omega 3 than omega 6.
One main issue is “lignans.” Lignans are particles which contain fiber. Some people claim you should buy non-lignan versions of flax oil and some people suggest you buy high lignan varieties.
The answer really depends on what you are using it for. For example, if you are using it for stomach cancer, and are on the Cellect-Bugwig protocol or Bill Henderson protocol, then you definitely need the “high lignan” version. This is because the stomach needs the fiber.
On the other hand, Mike Vrentas recommends no lignan varieties for other types of cancer patients. However, his reason is that it is hard to tell when the lignan version becomes rancid. This is generally not an issue in high volume health food stores.
What you use is up to you and your research.
MAKE A NOTE TO YOURSELF to shake the flaxseed oil well before putting it in the bowl.
Item #2: Cottage Cheese (U.S. Variety) or YogurtHere are the basic instructions on how to make the Budwig Mixture.
Grind with a small coffee grinder (1) Tblsp of Flax Seed and put in a small bowl. Do not buy pre-ground flax seed as the flax seed goes rancid 15 minutes after grinding. Brown or Golden whole Flaxseed is available and either will work. Grind fresh each time.
We have always recommended using the immersion [stick or wand like] mixer for the Flax Seed Oil and Cottage Cheese. Here is a link to immersion mixers:
Immersion Mixer Vendor
Mix (4) Tbs of organic 2% low fat Cottage Cheese with (2) Tbs organic cold pressed Flax Seed Oil commonly referred to as (Flax Oil). It is best (not) to use Flavored, Lignum or Highest Lignum Flax Oil. Two good flax oils are Barlean’s or Spectrum’s cold pressed organic flax oil. This can be found in the refrigerated section of the grocery or health food store. Never off the shelf. Never capsule or flakes. Watch the expiration date. Blend the flax oil and cottage cheese together with the immersion blender until reaching a creamy quality and the oil has been absorbed. There should be no standing oil. Then add to this mixture if needed, 1-3 Tbs of low fat milk for a creamery mixture and (stir with a spoon) no blender. This mixture should then be poured over the freshly ground flax seed and mixed together by spoon; again no blender. The ratio may be adjusted for smaller or larger proportions. A rule of thumb to keep in mind is one tablespoon of oil to two tablespoons of cottage cheese. The amount of milk can be adjusted as needed for consistency and easier blending. Once the mixture is completed it must be eaten immediately for best results. Make fresh each time. Here’s the link to the (YouTube) page showing how to combine the Flax Oil and Cottage Cheese in a video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSoddptWL0s
The above mixture can be flavored differently every day by adding nuts, preferably organic such as pecans, almonds or walnuts (not peanuts), banana, organic cocoa, shredded coconut, pineapple (fresh) blueberries, raspberries, cinnamon, vanilla or (freshly) squeezed fruit juice. It’s usually best to place the fresh fruit on top of the completed mixture and enjoy as its own meal. Try your best to obtain organic fruit when possible. Many times this can be found frozen when not in season.
The above protocol should not be consumed with any other supplements, foods or oils at the same time. This should be a stand alone meal.
Dr Budwig pointed out that people who are suffering from Chronic or Terminal disease should work themselves up to consuming 4-8 Tblsp of the oil daily. Usually the higher limits 6-8 Tbs were for people with cancer. She stated, people with Liver or Pancreatic Cancer etc, may have to work up very slowly with the oil and possibly only start with 1 teaspoon at a time giving their body time to adjust. Dr Budwig pointed out that cancer patients once starting the protocol and getting it under control must continue with a maintenance dose to prevent reoccurrence. A maintenance dose is considered (1) Tbs of the oil per one hundred pounds of body weight. The Budwig Diet takes time to work and in the event of cancer may take 3-6 months. Many other health issues can be much faster in responding.
Item #3: CinnamonEach brand of cinnamon has an oil content. For diabetic patients it is critical to go to a health food store and buy the highest percentage of oil as possible. Cinnamon mimics insulin, thus by adding cinnamon you may need less insulin immediately. See the article on how to cure type 2 diabetes for more information because other things also mimic insulin:
Diabetes Type II article
For everyone else, the main purpose of the cinnamon is to kill the taste of the flaxseed oil and cod liver oil, so the oil content is not that important.
Item #4: Mandarin Oranges or Some Other FruitThe sole purpose of this item is for taste, thus add whatever fruits you wish.
Final Important CommentsYou must consume the Budwig mixture within 20 minutes of making it. Do NOT make more than you need and do not refrigerate the leftovers!!!
Also, don’t forget to put the cottage cheese into the bowl first, then the flaxseed oil. THEN mix the two togetherbeforeputting anything else in the bowl.
See the individual treatment articles for more information on how to use the Budwig Diet for that particular health condition.

If you drink alcohol regularly, then it is important to understand how your drinking is impacting your health. There are several research studies which have shown the health benefits of resveratrol, which is an antioxidant found in wine. Even though wine has this powerful antioxidant, you need to consider the other health implications from drinking alcohol.

In fact, evidence suggests that the amount of alcohol that you drink over time could have an impact on your cancer risk. At this point, it’s not completely understood exactly how alcohol plays a role in the development of cancer, but researchers have suggested that consuming higher amounts of alcohol might increase your risk.

Here are a few things that we know about alcohol and health:

Alcohol Depletes Certain Nutrients... Cancer risk might go up when there are nutrient deficiencies within the body, and it has been found that alcohol consumption depletes specific nutrients, including: magnesium, zinc, and B-complex vitamins. Heavy drinkers have a problem with folate levels, because the alcohol reduces the body’s ability to absorb folate from food sources.

Many people don’t get enough folate in their diet.  Alcohol consumption makes this problem worse by preventing the body from absorbing the folate that is available. Low folate levels have been linked with an increase in colon and breast cancers, so it is important that you reduce your alcohol consumption and eat more foods that are a good source of folate.

Chronic Inflammation from Alcohol... Alcohol can act as an irritant within the body, which can lead to chronic inflammation for some people. When the alcohol irritates the cells, especially in the throat and mouth, those cells are damaged. As the cells work to repair themselves, it is possible that DNA changes might occur which could eventually lead to cancer. This inflammatory response can occur anywhere in the body.

Drinking too much alcohol can also cause inflammation in the liver, and this damage can have a domino effect on other aspects of health.

Disrupted Hormone Levels... Alcohol consumption might play a role in hormone levels, because the alcohol might cause the levels of estrogen to increase within the body.  Estrogen plays a direct impact on the development of breast tissue, which can have a domino effect on the development of breast cancer.

If you want to reduce your risk of cancer, then it is best to limit your consumption of alcoholic beverages. Are you interested in learning about other lifestyle factors that impact your risk of cancer?  Contact a Certified Professional Cancer Coach to learn how to reduce your risks.

Do you need help to get rid of this habit called smoking? Have you tried before to no avail?  How about trying some foods that can assist you in your efforts to quit the habit once and for all?  The trick is to make the right choices of food when you finally plan to quit.

There are about 4800 chemicals contained in a cigarette out of which 69 can cause cancer. Whereas, 
secondhand smoke comprises of 7000 chemicals out of which 70 are known as cancer-causing. 
So smoking is not only lethal for the smoker himself but also for the people being exposed to 
the secondhand smoke. Smoking causes lung cancer, cardiovascular diseases, emphysema and fertility problems.

Joseph McClernon, Ph.D., director of the Tobacco Neuroscience Research Lab at Duke University states that fruits and vegetables can worsen the taste of the cigarettes.  Here is a list of foods to enjoy while quitting smoking!
Carrots
James A. Duke, PhD. Botanist at the USDA’s Agricultural Research Service, in Maryland, says, 
“If cigarettes are cancer sticks, carrots are anticancer sticks”. His own routine was 3 packs of 
cigarettes per day. He claims that carrots played a vital role in helping him quit smoking. 
The component called caroteniods found in carrots not only helps you quit smoking but also saves 
you from cancer. 

Sunflower Seeds
Researchers claim that sunflower seeds have the same effect on your mind as tobacco, i.e. 
they increase the production of adrenaline. Sunflower seeds not only have a calming effect on 
your mind but also contain essential B-complex vitamins that help in the nourishment of the nervous 
system. They are a good option for smoking quitters but overeating is not suggested as they contain 
high contents of fats. Choose the one with shells so that the consumption process can take time.

Bananas
Recent studies have found that banana can help quit smoking. The most common problem faced by 
the smoking quitters is that they feel lack of energy and stressed out. The friendly bananas, full of 
essential vitamins and minerals, can boost your energy and calm you down in stressful conditions 
caused by nicotine cravings. Whenever you feel the urge to smoke, kill it by eating a banana.

Marjoram tea
Marjoram is an aromatic herb commonly found in the Mediterranean countries. Its tea can be very 
effective for those who want to quit smoking. It makes the throat dry as a result smoking becomes less 
pleasurable. All you need to do is, boil 1 teaspoon of marjoram tea in a cup of water for 15 minutes. 
Whenever you feel the craving you can consume this tea. This herb is easily available at all health food stores.

Cloves
Cloves do not completely help you quit smoking but may help you limit the quantity of cigarettes you smoke. Whenever you smoke your first cigarette of the day, suck on a small clove, this will leave the taste of nicotine in your mouth for a long time and will reduce the urge for another cigarette.

All the above mentioned foods can help you quit smoking but also keep in mind that there are some foods 
that can actually aggravate your craving for smoke. According to the research conducted at the
Duke University, when you plan to quit smoking, avoid taking meat, alcoholic beverages and coffee
because these foods make cigarettes taste better.

Make quitting easy using HYPNOSIS!  
Hypnotherapy for smoking is fast becoming one of the most popular forms of treatment to help you do this.  If you are considering stop smoking hypnosis, the first step is to make sure you are choosing to quit for yourself. Hypnotherapy is most effective when you really want to quit. For example, if you are stopping because friends or a family member is pushing you, you may not get the results you want.

Hypnotherapy works by putting you in a deep, relaxed state where your mind is more open to suggestion. At this point your hypnotherapist will look to change your thought patterns. You may also be taught various tools and techniques, which you can practice at home.  While for some people just one session is enough to quit smoking, others may benefit from a follow-up session. The ultimate aim of stop smoking hypnosis is to empower people to take control of their addiction and develop new patterns of thinking that promote healthier behaviours.

If there is one thing you could do every day that would dramatically fight disease and increase your energy, consuming lemon juice combined with baking soda would be on the top of the list. Even athletes are using baking soda to give themselves extra energy in their sports competitions. Did you know that baking soda (Bicarbonate) cannot only fight serious diseases and tiredness, but also extinguish a fire, clean your house, unclog a drain, soften your laundry, stop heartburn, relieve itching from poisonous plants and bug bites, brush your teeth and wash your hair?

Baking Soda combined with Lemon juice is a powerhouse of energy and healing. Many of us suffer from what is called “Acidosis”, which is an excessive acidic condition. Acidosis is a leading pathogenic force in the development of many chronic diseases, such as; cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, autoimmune diseases (such as asthma and arthritis) osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, gout, dementia, obesity and premature aging, headaches, depression, sleepiness, loss of consciousness, arrhythmia, kidney stones, indigestion, urinary tract infections, shortness of breath and fatigue.
Harmful pathogens need a PH acidic state to live and thrive. Many, who suffer with cancer, have a very acidic PH state, often around 6, whereas 7.2 is the PH neutral state we need to achieve for good health.  Dr. Johanna Budwig was in favor of using as many natural substances as possible. Introducing more lemon into your diet is one of the easiest and natural ways to introduce high alkaline substances into the system. When you use the lemon and baking soda together it helps to fight cancerous cells or diseases in the body while helping to increase the body’s ability to clean itself up of what may be causing the diseases in the first place.

How to Prepare the Baking Soda and Lemon MixtureAt night time, put 1 glass of water into an empty  jar and then add 1 tablespoon of baking soda and the juice of one whole lemon. Be sure to clean the lemon peel well beforehand.
Now fill the jar with pure water and leave overnight. In the morning upon rising drink 1 glass of this lemon/baking soda mixture.  This drink will cleanse the intestines and help restore the PH balance first thing in the day. Before going to bed, ideally 2 hours or more after eating, drink another glass of the same mixture and then make more of the same mixture for the next day.
You will notice within a few days an improvement in your general overall health, energy and with time all kinds of illnesses and health problems will diminish.

Stress often starts with your thoughts, in your head with a worry or a fear, and those feelings of overwhelm, anxiety and perhaps even panic, don’t stay there. When you feel stressed, your body ramps up production of the stress hormones cortisol, adrenaline, and norepinephrine.  This triggers the start of the stress response, and, like a snowball rolling down a mountain, it gains traction and speed until you’re ready for the proverbial attack.  "Stress is not a state of mind... it's measurable and dangerous, and humans can't seem to find their off-switch." These words of warning come from renowned author and award-winning neurobiologist Robert Sapolsky in the documentary Stress: Portrait of a Killer. Watch the documentary at the top of this article.
​
Excess stress hormones are released far too often. Your stress response becomes imbalanced; it’s not shutting off. Your immune system suffers as a result, and epigenetic changes are rapidly occurring.  Stress can occur with any event, a job loss, divorce, or traumatic event.  

The stress is triggering systemic low-grade inflammation, and suddenly your blood pressure is up, your asthma is flaring, and you keep getting colds. Your body is out of homeostasis.
You’re having trouble sleeping and, on an emotional level, you feel like you’re nearing burnout. That’s when you notice that you’ve put on some weight, and you’re having digestive troubles too. 

Stress Takes a Toll on Your Brain and Adds Inches to Your Waistline
​Did you know that  stress can also lead to weight gain--of the worst kind? Stress-induced weight gain typically involves an increase in belly fat, which is the most dangerous fat for your body to accumulate, and increases your cardiovascular risk.  Stress alters the way fat is deposited because of the specific hormones and other chemicals your body produces when you're stressed.

Prolonged stress can also damage your brain cells and make you lose the capacity to remember things. Stress disrupts your neuroendocrine and immune systems and appears to trigger a degenerative process in your brain that can result in Alzheimer's disease. Stress can also accelerate aging by shortening your telomeres, the protective genetic structures that regulate how your cells age. In the words of Dr. Lissa Rankin, author of Mind Over Medicine:
"Our bodies know how to fix broken proteins, kill cancer cells, retard aging, and fight infection. They even know how to heal ulcers, make skin lesions disappear and knit together broken bones! But here's the kicker--those natural self-repair mechanisms don't work if you're stressed!"

Stress clearly affects your whole body and can lead to depression, heart disease, digestive problems, frequent colds, insomnia, anxiety and more...  so what can you do?

What you do for stress is a personal choice, what works for some may not for others.  Letting go of negative emotions, beliefs and limiting decisions is one way to help manage stress.  This can be done using the powerful techniques of Time Line Therapy.  Perhaps yoga, meditation or a high intensity workout is in order to help you manage stress.  Eating a healthy diet and drinking plenty of pure water is in order when you are feeling stressed.  Its always great to have support, join group activities or a support group if that is what appeals to you.  One more crucial point is to get adequate sleep!  Lack of sleep will impair your body's ability to handle stress.  A good night's sleep is always a great stress reliever.

Why is smoking so harmful? On the surface a cigarette may look harmless, but it’s the smoke released when the cigarette is burned that causes problems. Cigarettes are not just tobacco wrapped in paper. They contain a whole cocktail of chemicals, which are added during the manufacturing process to make them taste better and get you hooked. The following is a list of some of the harmful substances you are breathing in every time you smoke: 
Nicotine  This is the drug that stimulates the brain and causes addiction in smokers. If you smoke regularly, you may find as soon as you withdraw from the nicotine you experience unpleasant symptoms. These may include intense cravings, increased anxiety, irritability and headaches. Smoking immediately relieves these symptoms.
Tar  Tar is the residue that deposits in your lungs after smoking tobacco. From here it enters the bloodstream and gets carried to other parts of the body. Shockingly, it contains over 4000 chemicals, over 50 cancer-causing carcinogens and other poisons. This is why smoking is considered one of the biggest causes of disease.
Carbon monoxide This gas affects how much oxygen your blood can carry around the body. As a result, smoking prevents your body from getting the oxygen it needs to function smoothly. This can lead to shortness of breath, low energy levels and poor circulation.

Why you should stop smokingSmoking increases your risk of developing a wide range of health ailments and diseases. Below we explore some of the most common:

• Lung cancer - More than eight in 10 cases of lung cancer are directly related to smoking.
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) - Again, eight out of 10 cases of this distressing lung disease are caused by smoking.
• Heart disease - Considered the UK's biggest killer, around one in six cases is caused by smoking.
• Other cancers - Including mouth, throat, nose, blood, cervix and pancreatic cancer.
• Infertility - Smoking affects the fertility of men and women, making it harder to conceive.
• Gum disease - On top of staining your teeth, smoking can cause premature tooth loss due to gum disease.

Smoking not only harms your health, it can also negatively impact the livelihood of those around you. Children and babies living with people who smoke are vulnerable to a whole host of health problems. These include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and an increased risk of dying from cot death.
Adults who endure passive smoking for a long period of time are at increased risk of heart disease and lung cancer. Tobacco is also an irritant so it can make conditions such as asthma worse.
The benefits of quittingThe above information may make for a scary read, but for some the long-term risks are not enough to encourage them to quit smoking. If you are young and a smoker, you may find it hard to be concerned about your health and the illnesses that could strike decades later. If you are older, you may assume it's too late to stop smoking and reverse the effects it has had.       
In reality, it is never too late to quit. The sooner you quit smoking, the faster your body will recover and your risk of developing life-threatening conditions will decrease.
Longer life expectancy - If you quit smoking by the age of 30, you could increase your life expectancy by 10 years. Even if you are in your 60s when you decide to quit, you can still add three years onto your life. Not only will you have a longer life if you stop smoking, you should also have fewer health problems.
More energy - Carbon monoxide robs your body of oxygen, which makes it difficult for it to work properly. When you stop smoking you will be lowering the carbon monoxide levels in your blood, allowing your lungs and muscles to work the way they should. More oxygen to the brain will also help you to feel more alert, energised and awake.
Boosted immune system - When you smoke, your immune system is lowered. This makes you more susceptible to colds and flu. When you quit smoking your immune system gets a boost, which means you will pick up less illnesses and generally feel healthier all round.
More money - If you have smoked 20 cigarettes a day for 10 years, how much money will you have spent?  Take time to figure it out... Every time a craving hits - think about what you could do with that extra money.
Better breathing - Within nine months of quitting smoking, your lung capacity should increase by as much as 10%. This will help you to do simple things like climb stairs without feeling out of breath. Your smoker's cough should also disappear and any breathing difficulties or conditions you have (such as asthma) should be dramatically reduced.
Reduced stress - Many smokers reach for a cigarette when they are feeling stressed. While the immediate hit of nicotine after withdrawal may make you feel relaxed at first, in the long-term, smoking increases stress levels. Studies have shown that ex-smokers are less stressed than they were when they were smoking.  
Younger looking skin - Smoking prematurely ages the skin. Regular smoking can leave your skin dull, dry and prone to wrinkles. When you quit smoking, this effect is reversed as your skin receives the nutrients it needs. In time, you should find your complexion brightens up and any lines you have may appear reduced.
Hypnotherapy for smoking is just one of the ways you can quit for good and fully embrace the benefits of being a non-smoker. Book your hypnotherapy session with Lynn Thier, HERE Certified Hypnotherapist, Time Line Therapist, NLP Practitioner, & Nutritionist.

Hypnotherapy for smoking - When it comes to quitting smoking, a key aspect is letting go of the routine you once had and looking at cigarettes differently. Hypnotherapy for smoking is fast becoming one of the most popular forms of treatment to help you do this.  If you are considering stop smoking hypnosis, the first step is to make sure you are choosing to quit for yourself. Hypnotherapy is most effective when you really want to quit. For example, if you are stopping because friends or a family member is pushing you, you may not get the results you want.

Hypnotherapy works by putting you in a deep, relaxed state where your mind is more open to suggestion. At this point your hypnotherapist will look to change your thought patterns. You may also be taught various tools and techniques, which you can practice at home.

Some people find stop smoking hypnosis is enough to break the habit, while others prefer to combine the treatment with NLP or medication. This helps to tackle both the physical and mental addiction together. By exploring all the avenues you should find a suitable treatment that will help you quit smoking for good.
It is important to remember that hypnotherapy for smoking is not a quick fix. While for some people just one session is enough to quit smoking, others may benefit from a follow-up session. The ultimate aim of stop smoking hypnosis is to empower people to take control of their addiction and develop new patterns of thinking that promote healthier behaviours.

Did you know that every time you talk about an unhealed wound or trauma, you re-activate it in your emotional, spiritual and physical bodies? As you speak, or even think, about an old issue, you experience it as if it is happening right now. Since your subconscious mind does not know the difference between current experience and past memory, for all intents and purposes, the trauma or negative experience is happening now.
When you re-activate old painful memories, your thoughts, words and emotions create a negative karmic energy that you unknowingly project out into your future. This karmic energy manifests in more painful experiences, similar to the original issue. In other words, when issues come up without resolution, a karmic loop or pattern develops.
Each time this karmic pattern manifests in real life situations, you re-experience the original wound and the current hurt simultaneously. When this occurs, it is a powerful opportunity to heal the past wound by healing the current one.
Unfortunately, when an issue is re-activated, instead of using it as a healing opportunity, many of us react by pushing the wounds down with numbing substances like food, drugs, internet, Facebook, TV, and a long list of other distractions.
Unhealed issues get stored in the body,  until we release them. The body obliges as a storehouse for emotional wounds but it does take its toll, especially if issues are accumulated for long periods of time. Storing wounds in the body eventually weakens the body and invites illness and disease, as well as causing depression, fatigue, stress and weight gain. The good news is that the body is ready to release issues, the moment you are.
When an unhealed issue is re-activated, don’t just push it down – take the time to finally heal it. This means creating intentional space to feel your emotions and allow the issue to process through to Healing. Once you allow yourself to fully experience these emotions for the first time, without resistance, you will innately know what path to healing is right for you.
Wounds are meant to be healed. We are not meant to spend our lives carrying around past issues and hurts. Unhealed issues weigh us down, keep us asleep and prevent us from consciously creating. It is only our personal issues that stop us from experiencing our greatest potential. Holding onto issues keeps us limited and unable to reach that mountain top.
Because of the shifts going on in the collective consciousness and the higher energy now available on this planet, it has never been easier to release old issues. In fact, issues are now coming to the surface to be resolved. This is why so many of us are experiencing familiar challenges. Wounds want to be healed and issues want to be released, but you have the last say. None of this can happen until you are ready and willing.
You are meant to be free and clear of emotional burdens. You are meant to live a limitless life with an abundance of love and creativity. You are meant to stand on the mountain top with arms stretched wide – willing to receive your grandest dreams. The Universe is listening...Author: Nanice Ellis

I would like to explore some ways in which specific supplements can help reduce the terrible side effects of chemotherapy.  One of the main reasons for these ill side effects is the generation of free radicals by many commonly used chemo drugs.  This increased free radical burden comes at a cost, which accounts for most of the toxicities experienced by patients.

Lets review some supplements:
CoQ10 - is an antioxidant found in foods in small amounts, and which the body produces on its own. Found in all cells but in highest amount in heart, liver, muscles, immune system cells.  Gives the cell energy and improves oxygen uptake on a cellular level, Cancer doesn't thrive in a well oxygenated body.  Prevents shrinking of the thymus gland and decreased or eliminated cancer tumours in a small group of patients when 390 mg. was used daily along with antioxidants and essential fatty acids.

Maitake (Grifolia Frondosa)• Compounds in Maitake mushrooms called Beta-glucans are able to shrink tumours and have a beneficial effect on the immune system by increasing macrophage activity and the healing of breast and prostate cancer
• It also inhibits the formation of metastases
• Maitake lessens the side effects of chemotherapy, helping to decrease nausea, keep the white blood cells actively working, and in reducing pain

• MGN-3 is an extract of the outer shell of rice bran combined with extracts from the following three mushrooms: Shiitake, Kawaratake and Suehirotake. This combination possesses anti-cancer properties that improves the ability of the T-killer cells to destroy cancer cells by increasing the number of explosive granules in the T-killer cells
• MGN-3 increases the body’s levels of interferon and tumour necrosis factors, both of which help destroy cancer cells
• In one study involving 24 cancer patients who took the product for two months, the T-killers cells became 27 times more effective at killing cancer cells after the two months than they had been prior to treatment
• Used with chemotherapy, MGN-3 lessens toxic side effects of the chemo and fortifies the white blood cells

Indole-3-Carbinol (a plant compound from cruciferous vegetables)


• Indole-3-carbinol converts the stronger form of extrogen (estradiol) into a weaker form (2-hydroxy-estrone)
• When I-3-C was given to 25 women for two months the levels of C16-hydroxyestrone (bad estrogen) dropped
• I-3-C inhibits human breast cancer cells from growing by as much as 90%
• I-3-C interrupts the cell cycle in cancer cells. In one study I-3-C inhibited the growth of estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells by 90% compared to tamoxifen’s 60% by stopping the cell cycle
• In estrogen receptor-negative cells I-3-C stopped the synthesis of DNA for new cells by about 50% whereas tamoxifen had no significant effect
• Chemically – induced breast cancers have been inhibited by both I-3-C and DIM in animals studies, with I-3-C being slightly more effective

Lynn has been working in the wellness Industry for more than 18 years and has a magical way of inspiring others to embrace healthy, balanced lifestyles and relish in living their best life!  Making even just one of the shifts she suggests can: reduce stress, take pounds off, reduce cholesterol and blood pressure, add quality years and vitality to your life.  Lynn searches for alternative, holistic and natural methods in taking care of one's health and wellness...  knowledge is a powerful tool.  Being informed about your disease , treatment options  and expectations will empower you to take control of the process.  This can affect your recovery and personal experience in a positive way.  

Radical Remission is a wonderful book that talks about 9 elements that radical remission cancer survivors have used to heal their bodies.  Not one thing alone works but using several elements together can help the body to heal from illness and disease.  As a cancer coach, nutritionist, & Time Line therapist, hypnotherapist, I teach clients to combine these very same elements together to effect change.  

The number one thing that patients do is to radically change their diet!  Increasing vegetables, organic fruit, whole grains, eating whole foods, juicing, and eliminating dairy, wheat, gluten, meat, sugar, and processed foods. Giving the body the nutrients it needs to fight disease and increase the immune system and natural killer cells.  

Taking control of your own health and the ideal that in order for healing to occur, you must be willing to make changes even if those changes are time consuming and emotionally difficult.  Instead of relying in quick fix pills, you may need to make serious changes in your life in order to regain your health.  You may need to leave your stressful job or marriage in order to heal, whatever it is, evaluate, reflect and listen to your inner voice to do what is right for you.

Following your intuition.  The body knows what it needs to heal and it can often let you know why you got sick in the first place.  This belief goes against western medicine, which usually removes patients from the  planning process while the doctors determine a course of treatment after diagnosis.  IF the mind is allowed to quiet down, it will know what it needs to do in order to be well again.  Cancer is only a messenger that says something has gone wrong or out of alignment.  Find out what that something is, that root cause and correct it to heal the body.

Using Herbs and Supplements:  The difference between chemo and vitamins is that chemo kills cancer cells & the immune system while most supplements are designed to  strengthen the immune system so that it can remove cancer cells.  These 2 treatment styles stem from 2 different belief systems.  Vitamins and Herbs alone  will not do the trick however, combining them with all the other elements to heal the body may mean the difference between life and death just as diet alone may not work either.  

Releasing suppressed emotions- suppressed emotions are any emotions you are hanging onto from your past that are negative, positive, conscious or unconscious.  We hold onto negative one's such as anger, fear, sadness, and hurt.  Suppressed emotions may be conscious or unconscious, meaning you may not be able to remember them fully.  It could be from traumatic memories or events in the past, accidents, abuse are often blocked from one's conscious memory.  You can release these negative emotions easily with Time Line Therapy, hypnotherapy and using other healing modalities such as Reiki, yoga and meditation.

Increase positive emotions:  Happiness is a habit and a state that you can access at any time.  We all have happy memories that we can access and we an do it daily to make it a habit.  For cancer survivors that were interviewed, they had to force themselves to think of past happy events and memories in the beginning or they chose to watch funny shows and movies to increase their happiness.  They discovered that by doing this daily, it became a habit and the feeling of happiness came quickly the more they practiced it.  

Embrace social support:  We are social creatures by nature and humans need each other to survive.  Researchers have discovered that loved one's help our bodies in a sophisticated way.  When we are surrounded by them, even our pets the feeling of being loved releases a flood of hormones into the bloodstream which makes us feel better emotionally but also strengthens our immune system significantly.  

Deepening your spiritual connection:  Having a connection to a deeper or higher energy which some people call God and others call it the soul or energy or chi.  One may pray to find this connection others may have a deep yoga practice or meditation practice that they follow.  Whatever it is for you, is right for you, practice is daily, connect to your inner spirit and faith.

Having strong reasons for living:  Survivors that were interviewed said that they wanted to live and for many reasons.  Having confidence to your core that you want to keep living, to get excited about life was a recurring factor for cancer patients of radical remissions.  It is a recurring fact in this book that the mind leads the body, not the other way around.  Its a proven fact that when you have strong enough thought or emotion, powerful hormones and released instantly into the bloodstream and have either beneficial or detrimental effect on your immune system depending on the nature of your thoughts and emotions.

While each chapter in the book contains healing stories, its important to remember that it is never just one factor that helped people get well but a multitude of factors.  Empowerment is the key, cancer is a devastating disease and people often feel powerless since it can sneak up without any warming.  Finding your power will require some effort on your part, you can do it.

You probably know this feeling of being trapped in negative emotions or limiting beliefs. You may be blocked by anxiety, insecurity or depression. You may believe that you are not good enough or not worthy to have things you want the most in life.  Or you may you have felt that the lack of energy or chronic physical issues such as chronic pain, allergies or auto-immune diseases, prevent you from reaching your goals.  You have tried “everything” to change, improve and heal, but somehow there is still something holding you back from reaching your goals. May be you have even started to give up on your dreams to have the life you desire.

Imagine how good it would feel to:

• Discover and address the deeper root causes of your mental, emotional and physical blocks and limitations
• Free yourself from subconsciously stored negative emotions and limiting beliefs
• Erase self-sabotaging patterns and create congruency on all levels
• Re-program your mind and cellular memory to greater peace, confidence and self-worth
• Access your true potential to heal, change and thrive
• Have the skills and tools to be in charge of your thoughts, emotions and actions – and to continuously grow and create more balance, success and well-being in your life.

This can all be achieved using Time Line Therapy....It is used to release negative emotions, such as anger, sadness, fear, guilt, shame and limiting beliefs (for example I am not good enough, I don not deserve) through hypnotic regression and subconscious learning.

Most clients require only 6-8 sessions, which can be once a week OR spread over a time period of 2-3 months to breakthrough their blocks and reach their goals.  Each session is 1.5 - 2 hours long, so that there sufficient time to go deep and create powerful shifts and momentum. During the sessions you will work consciously with your subconscious mind, activate your mind-body-spirit connection and spend some time in a very pleasant, relaxed light trance state. By using specific mind-activating modalities and techniques you are able to resolve deep-seated emotions and limiting beliefs and gain a new perspective on yourself and your life. In the process you will learn and acquire effective tools and strategies, which allow you to further solidify the changes and quickly implement your growth in your daily life.
