Doctors still fail to recognize healing power of foods, nutrition and supplements

How much can healing foods and a healing lifestyle change you in terms of blood chemistry? As you may know, I posted my own blood chemistry results at www.HealthRanger.org to prove a point on this. By consuming a healthful diet based on an organic, partially raw / vegan diet with nutritional supplementation, a fair amount of physical exercise, and minimal animal products, I've achieved LDL cholesterol of 67, HDL cholesterol of 62 and a resting pulse of 48. These numbers are not unattainable, even though they are astonishing to many doctors.

Healing foods, herbs and nutrients reference sites to be launched; Update from Truth Publishing

We have since built exactly such a series of websites, and they're going to be launching in a few days. HealingFoodReference.com lists all the top healing foods along with the diseases or disorders they may help. It also lists the nutrients found in each food and which body systems may be helped (like the immune system or circulatory system). You can search for healing foods by food name or by disease name (like "osteoporosis"). HerbReference.com lists medicinal herbs and their uses, covering Amazon herbs, Western herbs, Chinese herbs and even medicinal mushrooms from Japan.

The top herbs and supplements for wound healing and post-surgical recovery

Various phototherapy devices use infrared LED lights to bathe the wound in healing light. The cellular DNA responds by speeding up the repair process. Avoid junk food during the healing process, especially processed fats such as hydrogenated oils and homogenized milk fats. They interfere with healthy cell wall construction. Colloidal silver can be used topically to prevent infections. It works better than antibiotics and offers no opportunity for bacteria to build up resistance. Some people take colloidal silver internally as a replacement for antibiotics (that topic is a whole article).
In fact, inflammation is your body's way of bringing blood and nutrients to the area that needs healing. Conventional doctors tend to take the view that all inflammation is bad, but that's an outmoded, limited view of the body's adaptive response to trauma. Inflammation actually serves an important healing purpose, so don't go crazy trying to eliminate it with drugs or supplements unless there is a strong medical reason for doing so (check with your doctor to determine what's right for you).

Besides, various churches have always attributed special healing powers to their particular tools. Roman Catholic churches have Holy Water and other healing elements (Easter wafers, Saint Glaize Candles, Scapulars, and so on). Other religions use prayer clothes, prayer oils, and various pieces of string for which healing benefits are commonly prescribed. Nearly all churches recognize prayer as an effective form of healing.

The top herbs and supplements for wound healing and post-surgical recovery

Inflammation actually serves an important healing purpose, so don't go crazy trying to eliminate it with drugs or supplements unless there is a strong medical reason for doing so (check with your doctor to determine what's right for you). A great rainforest herbal product that eases inflammation is Recovazon offered by the Amazon Herb Company. It eases inflammation and speeds injury recovery. I've personally used it to heal from sprains and bruises earned during gymnastics and martial arts.
It's positioned as a high-end skin care product, but many people use it directly on wounds to speed healing. See: http://amazondreams.amazonherb.net/Lluvia_CamuSerum.aspx Bromelain: An enzyme found in the stems of pineapples, bromelain is useful for reducing post-op swelling. It acts as an anti-inflammatory and boosts the immune system to reduce pain, bruising, tenderness, frostbite, and burns. It is a natural supplement that works the same way as Ibuprofen, the well-known over-the-counter drug. The only difference: bromelain will not harm your liver.

When they were told that they were being treated with another, healing substance, they recovered immediately. In reality, however, the new treatment was only saline in water as well. In their book Honey, Mud, Maggots, and Other Medical Marvels: The Science Behind Folk Remedies and Old Wives' Tales, Robert and Michele Root-Bernstein summarize this unexpected effect, stating, "The nocebo effect can reverse the body's response to true medical treatment from positive to negative.

There's always feedback coming back from the Universe, and I feel like that's true in the healing journey. There's always these little signs coming in, and we just need to become aware. It's really about the humbleness. I think one of the reasons why our society is in a lot of trouble with health, debt and all this kind of stuff is arrogance, and this is about humbling yourself before, you know, God -- before Mother Nature, and realizing we don't have all the answers. We need to lower that barrier or that resistance, or lower the judgment in particular.

Whether our attention is focused on a quantum particle during a laboratory experiment or anything else—from the healing of our bodies to the success of our careers and relationships—we have expectations and beliefs about what we're watching. Sometimes we're consciously aware of these preconceptions, but often we're not. It's these inner experiences that become part of what we're focused on. By "watching," we become part of what we're watching. In the words of Wheeler, that makes us all "participators." The reason?

We know that infrared light in the 600 and 700 nanometer range accelerates the healing of flesh wounds. We also know that environmental stress caused by noise (living near airports) or electrical interference (living near high-voltage power lines) is detrimental to health. A recent study, for example, showed that men who frequently use cell phones show radically reduces sperm counts due to the side effects of cell phone radiation.

From this perspective, everything from the healing of our bodies to the peace between nations; from our success in business, relationships, and careers to the failure of marriages and the breakup of families ... all must be considered as reflections of us and of the meaning that we give to the experiences of our lives. Historically, to suggest that what we believe in our hearts and minds can somehow have any effect whatsoever on our bodies is a very different way of seeing things, a real s-t-r-e-t-c-h.
Example: Simply hoping, wishing, or saying that a healing is successful may have little effect upon the actual situation. In these experiences, we haven't yet arrived at the belief—the certainty that comes from acceptance of what we think is true, coupled with what we feel is true in our body—that makes the wish a reality. Affirmations and Prayers A thought that's imbued with the power of emotion produces the feeling that brings it to life. When this happens, we've created an affirmation as well as a prayer.

Gene therapy and genetic engineering: the future of medicine?

That, in my view, is an improper view of health and medical intervention. True healing only happens from within. True healing only takes place when the patient is involved in that healing, when the patient's own immune system is supported, when their belief systems are improved to eliminate distortions, when they begin to take responsibility for their actions, when they begin to actually appreciate and love themselves and so on. This is where healing actually takes place, and no amount of technology, even 500 years of technological advances, can replace that personal role in healing.

The tale of doctors who tried to create art

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Neither healing nor art come from the physical matter, the chemicals, the molecules. Neither healing nor art can be measured or understood as an inventory of parts. Neither healing nor art exist anywhere but in the minds and hearts of those who materialize observable artifacts by acting on utterly non-scientific dreams and intentions. Healing and art are much the same. Hence the term, "Healing Arts.

The Implication: From the healing of disease, to the length of our lives, to the success of our careers and relationships, everything that we experience as "life" is directly linked to what we believe. ? The Bottom Line: To change our lives and relationships, heal our bodies, and bring peace to our families and nations requires a simple yet precise shift in the way we use belief. For those who accept what science has led us to believe for the last 300 years, even to consider that our inner experience can affect reality is nothing short of heresy.

Healing foods beat statin drugs for lowering high cholesterol

And yet we live in a nation that's focused on drugs, and not focused on healing foods. If we would just turn to the healing foods, we could solve this health problem and return to a national state of outstanding health, with a shocking drop in health care costs to boot.

Medicine vs. healing, war vs. peace and male vs. female thinking (opinion)

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

They talk about "supporting" the patient's own natural healing systems and creating a "healing" effect. They consider the multiple layers of the patient -- the physical, chemical, emotional and energetic -- and take time to listen to the patient's beliefs and concerns. To them, the patient is more than just a number, and their array of potential treatments may span several modalities, including herbs, therapeutic touch, homeopathy, acupuncture or nutritional therapies.
The question is, why do other men have such closed minds when it comes to new information about natural healing or healing nutrition? One of the answers, I believe, is that many men want to believe they already understand the way the universe works. Men like to be rational. In fact, they often disparage the intuition and emotion more readily demonstrated by women. They tend to believe that intuition is false and that making decisions with emotions is somehow inferior.

But in reality, there's no need for patients to be on statin drugs for the rest of their lives when foods offer a far more powerful healing benefit with far lower cost and zero risk of side effects. As long as drug companies and the FDA continue their medical monopoly in the United States, doctors will continue to emerge from medical schools utterly ignorant of the foundations of nutrition. The FDA will regulate, ban or outlaw more herbs and nutritional supplements while Big Pharma pushes patented chemicals as the solution for every health symptom, disorder, or disease...
In time, even medicine will be forced to acknowledge the healing properties of foods and plants, but until that happens, it's up to you to stay ahead of the curve and inform yourself about the miraculous medicines provided by nature.

Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness

Soul retrieval is integral to Plant Spirit healing because the entire point of the practice is to help a person become more fully who they are, living according to their true nature and walking the path they came to walk this time around. This is unlikely to be achieved if only a portion of their soul is present. I perform soul retrievals with almost all of my clients at some point in their series of treatments, especially when I feel their progress has come to a standstill or they exhibit behavior that is unexplainable after eliminating all other possibilities.

Review: Violet Ray Crystal Resonator machine broadcasts healing energy for your body, mind and home

Violet Ray Crystal Resonator (VRCR) made by Pillar of Light Enterprises at PillarOfLight.net. The inventor is a man named Jack Derby. This device is a vibrational medicine / experimental energy medicine. I have found it to be very effective at helping move stagnant energy through your body or even through a physical space (such as a home, office or healing practice space). In this review, I'll explain what the VRCR is and what I experienced after purchasing and using this technology over the last several months.

So why are so many doctors so skeptical about the healing power of foods? My theory is that a lot of patients actually lie to their doctors about what kind of dietary changes they are making, just like they might lie about alcohol or tobacco consumption. When doctors ask, "How is your diet?" the patient may say, "I've stopped eating meat, cheese, fried foods and drinking soft drinks." But most patients actually have not made those changes, and the doctors are left with a misimpression that dramatic dietary changes have very little effect on blood chemistry.

When a patient genuinely pursues courageous behavioral changes in their food choice and eating habits, they will, without question, show remarkable healing benefits that can be readily verified. Another important factor to consider here is the nutritional illiteracy of most physicians. The vast majority of conventional doctors are no more nutritionally literate than the average person who has not sought out nutritional information on their own.

We know that food has a vibration, and we also know there is a big difference in the healing qualities of low-vibration food and high-vibration food. Low-vibration food is created with the intent of profit rather than love -- like food from greedy corporations and processed factory foods -- whereas high-vibration food is food from sources that are interested in helping humanity, have respect for the Earth, and respect for animals and plants.
From there, it uses a tiny amount of electricity (about the same as a light bulb) to broadcast healing frequencies for as long as you want to keep the unit running. Learn more at Pillar of Light Enterprises. By the way, Jack Derby has also invented a Structured Water Filter / Vortex Water Machine that I call the ultimate water energizer. It filters, charges and restructures your water using everything from carbon block filtration to high-energy light frequencies. I'll be covering that in a later review. Also, if you enjoyed this topic, I strongly recommend books by Bruce Lipton.
