(Healingtalks) It is extremely sad that Steve Jobs , a man of great vision and genius at the helm of Apple, died today and prematurely from his cancer treatments. There is little doubt, as that is what usually happens with about 97-98% of cancer patients treated conventionally, that his life was cut short like that of millions of others. This occurs due to a culture-wide indoctrinated belief that we must to follow and trust the dictates of persistent failure, as long as it has the stamp of approval of conventional medicine and its Big Pharma funding sources.
Criminal Ignorance
In fact, Steve Jobs died only a few months after being treated with chemotherapy at the Stanford Cancer Center and prior thereto with radiation. Here was a man whose life force was decimated by the horrid toxicity that is commonly and criminally inflicted on cancer patients via chemotherapy and radiation. We call it “criminal ignorance” on the part of the medical industry because they know no better and shut their eyes to the alternatives.
Fortune also reported that Steve Jobs underwent a secret liver transplant.
In January of this year, Roc4Life.com reported:
“Jobs’ medical leave is due to cancer, but no one knows whether it stems from his 2004 battle with pancreatic cancer or complications from a secret liver transplant in 2009.
Steve Jobs thus underwent major conventional treatments, all of which combined converted a slow growing cancer into an abrupt end of his life.
Lesson To Be Learned
This is what every first grader should know.
Yet the most left-brain intelligent Phds coming from the best of Ivy League Schools don’t quite get it – not if bankrolled by Big Pharma. Basically if you poison your body with chemicals, you come closer to not farther away from death. Think of a compost heap where all plants decay or breakdown to form all other plant life in an unbroken circle of unity. Throw in any random mix of chemicals, and all life therein dies. This is elementary.
You know how drug companies spend billions to test drugs in isolation. This is the foundation of their Big Scam. They never test the whole order of chemistry because that would end their mean game. Think of a compost heap wherein the order of chemistry clashes with the order of life – why we have organic farming. The more chemicals we randomly put into the heap (to test the whole order of chemistry) the more life therein dies. Wouldn’t it be great if everyone understood that.
This means that chemistry’s order is not living nature’s order.
If life is at the core of nature overall, then chemistry’s order is not nature’s order as such
Well what a radical idea that is! Only at healingtalks will you find dozens of articles about a life-centered vision of nature replacing the mechanical math-based.
This deeply radical idea is that worth repeating, imagine that, contrary to what modern education teaches us….
Chemistry’s Order is Not Nature’s Order
We have been indoctrinated or weaned on a faith in chemistry. We have been taught that chemistry constitutes a science of sciences. Unfortunately many take this belief not only to heart, and into their sub-subconsciousness, but to their early graves. Several Nobel Prize winning physicists and chemists have also pre-maturely died of Alzheimer’s – not understanding, in this view, the nature of life and consciousness in nature; never suspecting that math symbols don’t and can’t point well to that kind of essence of nature.
If this counter-cultural view is true, then chemotherapy not only won’t work…..it can’t!
Using chemotherapy to try then to undue cancer is like using fifty cups of coffee just before going to bed to sleep better!
The insanity of using the most intensely cancer-causing chemicals to cure cancer, nevertheless, is commonplace. It is a sign of our crazy times.
The practice is dictated again by a belief at the core of modernity – and the vast denial that this belief is and could be wrong, or that the whole chemical/pharmaceutical/drug-based approach is false, fallacious, erroneous, mistaken and even downright idiotic and stupid.
Is a doctor going to admit such a thing? Or that his core approach to nature is bankrupt?
No way, and he will do everything possible to try to prove the very opposite.
Medical Heresy
If any doctor falls out of line, it is also a heresy. Naturopaths and other holistic professionals thus become the heretics or infidels to be stamped out.
No one is allowed to question the underling vision or the road of progress it supposedly unravels (an ever better life through chemistry).
No one is allowed to question the mechanical, death-ridden vision of nature – and as first introduced in ancient Greece and as latter brought to dominance in the 17th century.
Mandatory and Necessary Denial
Again to question the underlying worldview is to risk being thrown out of the club – like a monk thrown out of a monastery for adopting a different religion. That would be too devastating.
The same underlying worldview of medical doctor is the foundation of what gurus of technology follow. So it is little surprise that someone of Steve Jobs’ stature should turn to conventional cancer “solutions.”
Take away that belief in the underlying worldview, however, and the justification to prescribe drugs, surgery and radiation dies – rather than the patient!
So that worldview is of no minor importance.
It is sacrosanct.
A denial or heresy stance would again destroy their whole approach to the healing arts.
Thus Never Mind the Consequences
Thus never mind that chemicals do not cure cancer.
If the evidence shows that one would think doctors would wholesale abandon drugs and chemicals in that field.
But no. Absolutely not
So deep a belief, so hypnotically held, cannot be denied mentally or culturally.
As we learn with hypnosis in general, a belief will take precedence over ANY evidence of our senses.
Of course we’re never taught that possibility…and for something so vital…namely that the root vision of nature, the mathematical, is really a vast belief system in symbol idols that structures rather than discovers the nature of our world.
We are rather taught this is all and only objective science, and chemists and doctors are our best guides thereto. We only then look at how the vision or belief works successfully (as in designing Apple computers and other mechanical things) and not how and where and why it utterly fails. And the failures are really legion, but blotted out in the fabric of that worldview.
A belief that again that so deeply constructs reality cannot be overturned with ease.
Unfortunately great individuals fall victims to the denial process that there are failures. Famous individuals who took conventional treatments and then soon died include Farrah Fawcett, Peter Jennings, Patrick Swayze, Michael Douglas.
Still there is a society-wide blindness that ever persists. Conventional cancer treatments obviously fail. They maim and kill millions.
They don’t work, except in relatively rare cases, and for short periods of time.
This is because poisons poison our body. Duhhh
But if doctors unrelentingly tells us to still take such poisonous treatments (and to pay them and hospitals dearly for the same) perhaps we should? And then we have to face the consequences of our gullibility rather than better taking health into our own hands.
Why Conventional Cancer Treatments Cannot But Fail!
The underlying reason is as follows:
If healing is a connective coming to wholeness then
Surgery – cutting our body apart (disconnecting it) can’t heal us.
Organ Transplants – treating the body as a machine made of separate interchangeable parts can’t heal us.
Radiation – using a by-product of things falling apart can’t heal us
Is There a Bigger Lie Anywhere In Our Modern World?
So back to how Steve Jobs’ life as stolen by the cancer industry.
The mass media filters out the hints that conventional medical doctors might be lying to us and to themselves when they so rarely care about chemicals in our processed foods polluting every organ of our bodies. Why? Obviously that would make us question similarly taking in chemical drugs into the depths of ourselves as dictated by doctors – pharmaceutical front men and women !
You must tell people that they need to use such chemicals to undue and cure cancer!
Is there a bigger lie anywhere in our modern world? If so, pray tell.

Japanese worker scrambled to control several nuclear plants and the meltdown of the Japanese nuclear fuel rods. Officials said that the readings at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant were not at levels to cause “harm to human health,” and the potential for impending disasters continue. Here’s more on combating radiation sickness.
Radiation levels at one nuclear power plant in Japan were between 100 and 400 millisieverts. To put that in perspective, in the United States, a person typically gets a radiation dose of 6.2 millisieverts per year.
That dose would quickly dissipate with distance from the plant to pose no immediate public health threat due to radiation. Still, Japanese residents as far as 30 kilometers or 18.6 miles were warned to stay inside.
At the higher end of that spectrum at the Japan plant, exposure to millisieverts for three hours would lead to radiation sickness, and eight hours would be fatal, said Ira Helfand of Physicians for Social Responsibility. Keeping it below 500 millisieverts is pretty safe, said Nolan E. Hertel, nuclear engineering expert at Georgia Institute of Technology. Here’s a bit of basic science to help explain the science and harmful effects of radiation.
What is radiation and why radiation is so dangerous?
Atoms become radioactive when they are unstable at their nuclear or atomic levels. In a process called “radioactive decay,” the atom can split into smaller parts and release a lot of very harmful energy. The subatomic particles emitted during a radioactive decay include gamma rays, neutrons, electrons, and alpha particles. Some of these elements can piece straight through the human body, damaging cells and posing a significant hazard for humans.
Alpha particles are relatively heavy and, when emitted, cannot penetrate human skin or clothing. Alpha particle radiation is still harmful if they get into the body by other means. Beta particle radiation can cause skin injury and is also harmful internally. Gamma and X-rays are high-energy invisible light that can damage tissue and are the greatest threat.
Some elements such as uranium, commonly used as fuel in nuclear power plants, are always radioactive; there is no nonradioactive form of them that naturally occurs in nature.
Radiation from the Japanese power plant is getting into the atmosphere because of the explosions that have happened there, and because it is necessary to vent some of it in order to prevent further damage.
Measuring radioactivity
Radioactivity is measured by how many atoms are spontaneously disintegrating or “decaying” per second. Specific instruments are designed to detect particular kinds of radiation that get released with each decay. We use units of radiation exposure called rems or sieverts, which measure the biological effect of whole-body radiation. Geiger counters detect radiation emitted from decaying atoms.
Common sources of radiation
The average annual radiation exposure we get from natural sources is 3.1 Sometimes we get double that or a total of 6.2 millisievert exposure because of medical diagnostic procedures and other man-made sources of radiation. The limit for occupational radiation exposure among workers who deal with radioactive material is 50 millisieverts. Here’s more on common sources of radiation from the FDA. A chest X-ray delivers about 02 millisieverts, and a CT carries 8 millisieverts. See our article on the danger of CT scans. But these procedures take seconds and prolonged radiation exposure is much more dangerous and harmful.
Although high doses of radiation can lead to cancer, radiation therapy targeted at tumors is also used to treat cancer as a double negative (to destroy what is harmful). That dose is about 10,000 times the typical exposure rate for the U.S., but it is applied to the cancerous tissue; the total-body exposure during radiation therapy is less.
Radioactive danger level for humans
According to the NRC, scientists believe that half a population would die within 30 days after a full-body dose of 3,500 to 5,000 millisieverts from a few minutes to hours. The more than 130 plant workers and firefighters who developed acute radiation sickness at Chernobyl received doses of 800 to 16,000 millisieverts.
Populations exposed to high levels of radiation have shown the risk of cancer. High-dose radiation exposure, above 500 millisieverts, has been associated with leukemia, breast, bladder, colon, liver, lung, esophagus, ovarian, multiple myeloma, and stomach cancers, according to the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
But there is less evidence linking low dose radiation, below 100 millisieverts, to cause cancer but it does exist. People who live in places that have higher levels of background radiation than normal, such as Denver, Colorado, slightly above 10 millisieverts per year, have not shown adverse biological effects. But higher “low level” background radiation might. Also the higher up you are in the atmosphere, the more radiation exposure (rays from the sun and other cosmic sources) – why airline pilots and flight attendants get more radiation than the average person.
The nuclear reactor meltdown in Japan has triggered fears about radioactivity and its impact on your health. This article addresses radiation concerns by detailing what you can do to protect yourself in a natural way from radiation exposure.
First, while the radiation atmospheric drift from Japan to the US is real, though relatively small, no one really knows for sure the long-term effects of such “minimal” exposure. So here is what can you do to protect ourself in a natural way:
Imported Food
Avoid all foods grown or raised in or near any fallout zone (e.g. fish recently imported from Japan). Dairy and spinach grown near the Japanese reactors have seen vast elevations in radioactivity.
Sea Greens
Introduce simple sea greens into your diet, such as seaweed, kelp, blue-green algae, spirulina, and chlorella. These contain rich minerals, including iodine, and bind the receptors site in your thyroid so that any radioactive iodine that you are exposed to will not harm your thyroid. These foods also contain antioxidants, like selenium, to prevent destructive free radical activity and cancerous growths, as well as chelating agents to bind to toxins and eliminate them.
Land Greens Wheatgrass, barley grass,buckwheat, sunflower and pea sprouts will similarly help.
Anti-oxidant Foods
Eat antioxidant-rich foods of every color, especially cherries, blueberries, pomegranates, yams, and sweet potatoes. The variety of antioxidants found in these foods help your body to mop up free radicals and toxins.
Plenty of Water Drink six to eight 8-ounce glasses of filtered water daily to to flush your body.
Supplements Take vitamin C, E, and D to assist antioxidant actions. Also, alpha lipoic acid is a nutrient that protects cells from radiation damage.
Herbs Include dandelion, peppermint, and chrysanthemum in herbal concotions to help detoxify.Laboratory studies have found that rosemary protects cells from damage when they are exposed to ionizing radiation. (British Journal of Radiology, February 2, 2009) It prevents damage to the cells and rids the body of free radicals. Pair with some dandelion greens, it helps clear away toxins and protect the liver. Gingko extracts further was shown in studies to also protect from radiation damage.1
Spices
Turmeric (curcumin) has cancer-fighting properties and seems to protect against radiation as well, as one animal study found it reduced skin damage from radiation treatments.2
Further topics highlighted
Buckwheat Studies have found that buckwheat is particularly high in a flavonoid called “rutin” that is developed in the plant to protect it from daily exposure to UV radiation (from the sun). This protective ability is transferred to the body when you eat it, helping shield your cells from harmful free radicals created by radiation exposure.
Seaweed Nuclear reactors produce radioactive iodine from uranium. The thyroid gland uses a lot of iodine to create hormones for the body. Therefore, people exposed to nuclear radiation have a higher risk of thyroid cancer, as the thyroid takes up the radioactive iodine, which damages cells.
Iodine Pills?
Does taking iodine pills help protect your thyroid from radiation exposure? The thinking is if you take the iodine pills, your thyroid will absorb and use the safe iodine rather than the radioactive. But iodine tablets can have side effects like an upset stomach, dizziness, muscle aches, and much more. Fortunately, things like kelp, spirulina, sea lettuce, and brown algae are all naturally high in iodine and are the more natural substitute.

Fears About
Irradiated Milk
In the US Grow
By JESSE McKINLEY and WILLIAM NEUMAN
By scientific standards, the radiation found over the last week in batches of milk on the West Coast appeared minuscule. But the mere mention of any contamination in the most motherly of beverages stirred concern in people like Marilyn Margulius, an interior designer from Berkeley, Calif., who called her daughter on Thursday and told her not to let her 10-year-old son drink milk.
“There is a big trust issue with this,” said Ms. Margulius, 71, who was shopping at a Whole Foods Market in Berkeley.
“The health department does not want people to panic. Milk is probably O.K., but who the heck knows?”
Initial Alarm Over Irradiated Milk
The alarm was sounded on Wednesday, when federal officials announced that tests had detected a trace amount of iodine 131 — a radioactive byproduct released by leaks at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan — in a sample taken on March 25 in Spokane, Wash. The level of radiation was tiny, far below the “intervention level” set by federal officials. Jason Kelly, a spokesman for the Washington State Department of Agriculture, said the positive sample came from a gallon of pasteurized whole milk produced at the Darigold plant in Spokane, which processes milk from a number of farms in Washington and Idaho.
Confirmation of Milk Irradiation
The California health department also confirmed Wednesday that it had detected a tiny amount of radioactive iodine in a sample collected Monday from a dairy in San Luis Obispo County on the state’s Central Coast.Milk in San Luis Obispo is regularly tested because the Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant is on the county’s southern coast. Officials said that monitoring — done weekly since the crisis began — was accountable for finding the contamination.
Dr. Penny Borenstein, the county’s public health officer, said that the tests would continue and that dairy products would continue to be safe. “The situation in Japan continues to evolve, but we are still 6,000 miles away.”
