Orphan Drugs

and Therapies:

 Failings of

Modern Medicine

Nathan Batalion, Global Health Activist, Healingtalks Editor

(Healingtalks) The average consumer has a wildly idealized image of the modern MD, especially when wearing a pure white coat draped with a stethoscope – an image molded by media, as a caring, careful scientist – and best tending to the urgent needs of his or her patients. There is little talk about the routinely prescribed toxic drugs that just manage disease, fail to heal, and often maim and kill as a supposedly minor “side-effects.”

Modern medicine controlled by commercial interests

In reality, modern medicine is shaped lock-stock-and-barrel by commercial interests. MDs are educated to become the primary front men and women for Big Pharma, indoctrinated into its ideologies, and ever silenced as to what goes on behind the scenes.  If an extremely rare doctor tells all or stands out to become a whistle blower, he or she is soon threatened in a deliberate way by peer pressure (euphemistically called “peer review as if it was just something only healthy) or the underlying medical license is simply pulled. Almost nothing passes as accepted “scientific” medical practice unless it first goes through the filter of being minimally profitability. Green dollars are accepted therapy determinators and sometimes patient terminators!

Orphan Drugs and Therapies

This is most clearly evident with the phenomenon of “orphan therapies” – approaches that are effective natural therapies but treated in a manner similar to orphan drugs.

Story of Dr. Joel Furhman

Recently a prominent natural physician, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, was asked to write an article for the American Diabetes Association publication on his phenomenal natural, nutritional approach to reversing (not life-time profitably managing) diabetes. He submitted the article only to be told that they couldn’t publish anything like that unless it was significantly toned it down. The article spoke about reversing diabetes so that patients were entirely taken off of insulin. Yet entirely taken off, not reducing the insulin. Why couldn’t they published that to help millions, if not billions of sufferors? Because the lead funder of the diabetes publication was also a chief producer of insulin, Eli Lily.  Dr Furhrman, not be corrupted, withdrew the article and found other venues to bring out his message. The second video tells the story.

For those who wake up to what is really happening in modern medicine, so it goes routinely.

Childhood Obesity =

Increased

Heart Conditions

Based on an article posted at http://www.natural-holistic-health.com

(Healingtalks) Regrettably, obesity is a substantial problem in our times.

Being fat increases the danger for heart conditions throughout a person’s life.  As a matter of fact, obesity in kids has been called a warning sign of heart disease.

Obesity and Related Illness Statistics & Data

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP), sixteen percent of kids between the ages of two and nineteen meet the criteria for obesity.

And while brand-new cases of fat kids aren’t necessarily rising, the number of kids with diabetes is rising. This might well be a repercussion of the childhood obesity epidemic.

In one report, artery wall thickness in fat kids and teenagers was observed to be as thick as the artery walls of a 45-year-old grownup. This signifies that childhood obesity may have a sort of quickening effect on heart disease.

While the study wasn’t conclusive and the number of participants was modest, it does erect a sure red flag of concern. Likewise, the arteries of fat kids might be in the beginning stages of coronary artery disease, which is the artery-hardening process that leads to stroke and heart attack. A report in Austria discovered that many fat kids have enlarged hearts.

Pediatricians and other experts are worried about the fact that these obesity-specific troubles are happening in such young folks, who are still going through growth and development. Their systems are still being “calibrated,” and experiencing heart and obesity troubles at such an early age implies there’s additional time for the fat to do its destructive work. Put differently, heart disease acquires a head start on its destructive effects in the body.

Elevated blood pressure is a different worry in fat kids, particularly those children who have a family history of elevated blood pressure.

Another vexation about childhood obesity is the number of fat cells in the body. Once you become a grownup, the amount of fat cells you possess in your body doesn’t change; they merely become larger or smaller as you slim down. The number of fat cells is still being determined in childhood, thus a fat kid is being set up to experience weight troubles for the remainder of his or her lifetime.

What to Do About Childhood Obesity

Thankfully, there are plenty of things you are able to do to forestall and treat obesity in your kid.

1st, lower the saturated fat your kid consumes.

Hot dogs, processed lunch meats, butter, and other animal fats (including full-fat dairy merchandises) had better be sharply limited.

Avoid empty calories such as those encountered in packaged cakes, cookies, and other sugar-rich and nutrient-deficient foods.

Fast foods had better be entirely ruled out from the kid’s diet.

Encourage your kid to consume a lot of whole foods – brown rice, whole grain bread (preferably homemade), and fresh produce of all varieties. Nuts, while high in fat, establish healthy snacks that help your kid feel full. Let your youngster have treats in the form of home-baked desserts that don’t bear a lot of sugar or fat (such as natural fruit leather).

Do not forget exercise!

Children should run around in the invigorating air. Promote outdoor play, sports, biking, hiking, or other activity……and get the whole family in on the program as well.

Do drug makers ever lie to us and the doctors they serve?

Unfortunately they do.

My step-dad had diabetes for nearly 50 years and died blind. This was without anyone telling him, except for me repeatedly, that he was being lied to by the industry. He had seen too many pro-industry TV ads. Who was I to go against this mind-bending cultural avalanche?

Who was I to whisper in  my his ears that there are several effective ways to naturally reverse diabetes – and also quickly – and thus never go blind?

Some examples of the heartless deceptions of drug companies are as follows. The first is based on a recently released NY Times article. The article exposed a really criminal diabetes drug fraud:

SMITH  KLINE’S AVANDIA DRUG FRAUD
“In the fall of 1999, the drug giant SmithKline Beecham secretly began a study to find out if its diabetes medicine, Avandia was safer for the heart than a competing pill, Actos, made by Takeda.

Avandia’s success was crucial to SmithKline, whose labs were otherwise all but barren of new products. But the study’s results, completed that same year, were disastrous. Not only was Avandia no better than Actos, but the study also provided clear signs that it was riskier to the heart. But instead of publishing the results, the company spent the next 11 years trying to cover them up, according to documents recently obtained by The New York Times. The company did not post the results on its Web site or submit them to federal drug regulators, as is required in most cases by law.”

MORE ON THE DIABETES DRUG SCAM
Dr. Joel Fuhrman, a famous nutritional physician who pioneered work in nutrition density, once help a patient (among many) who was also a school principal and to completely reverse her diabetes. The patient then wrote an article for her school principal trade magazine  about Dr. Fuhrman’s approach. This caught the attention of the American Diabetes Association. They thus contacted Dr. Fuhrman and asked  him to write an article for their magazine. He agreed and they soon sent him a $750 advance. After he submitted the article, Dr. Fuhrman heard back from the ADA politely thanking him but also asking him to alter (fudge) the article. The problem was that wrote about not cutting back on his patients’ insulin but rather taking patients off insulin entirely. They explained that it was impossible for them to publish that since Ely Lilly, the manufacturer of insulin, was their magazine’s primary funder. Dr. Fuhrman, having considerable integrity, refused to change his article and sent them back their $750.

Do you get the picture?

Favorite phases of the industry are therefore “living with diabetes” or “controlling diabetes,” not curing it.

Since Dr. Gabriel Cousens showcased his hugely successful nutritional approach to reversing/eliminating/curing diabetes, see Simply Raw, Reversing Diabetes in 30 Days, the ADA has enforced a systematic industry silence against this economic threat. So did all their friends, other Big-Pharma- financially-controlled and/or monetary-front organizations. This includes the International Diabetes Federation (the “proud” sponsors of World Diabetes Day).

When such organizations raise funds to supposedly “cure” diabetes or help diabetics – please beware! Don’t be one of those well-intentioned but fooled followers. They are instead funneling funds back to the drug makers, to their sponsors in a promotion profit-center of its own, or to fund drug research operations and thereby keep treating and not ever reversing diabetes (the latter being an economic disaster) with drugs.

For most individuals this is extremely hard to believe. Could modern life be so deeply full of commercial deceptions? But this is why medical care cost in the US  has risen from 4.5% of GDP in the 1940′s (or in the pre-TV advertisement era and where thereafter drug tacking was powerfully pushed on the modern collective-subconscious-psyche) to 18% of GDP, and with the very worst of results. The major media who hugely accept drug advertising (with ad$s leading the pack of virtually all other industries) are corrupted thereby. The billions are spent on such advertising campaigns because selling of poisons with harmful “side-effects” is a vast psychological push, going against common sense. Politicians supported by Big Pharma lobbyists may tackle Smith Kline’s outright fraud, but not the larger, more insipid and concealed fraud of the diabetes treatment industry as a whole.

And without facing this very starkest of realities, nothing essentially changes.  Medical costs will rise yet more. We and our loved ones become the holocaustic victims, my step-dad included – the abused, misused and taken advantage of.

I MISS MY FATHER’S HEAVENLY SMILE

My dad Gabriel Bross (step-dad who raised me as Nathan Bross Batalion) passed away just a little over a year ago. He died at the ripe age of 90. I miss him so terribly, and especially on this Father’s Day. He was such an indescribably incredible, simple, sweet and caring, and divinely-spirited man. Because of that, and despite never really having much materially, he acted as if he a was a king, richly endowed - and in fact he was.

CONCENTRATION CAMP HISTORY

“Angel Gabriel” to me, he stayed in a marriage for decades, even though it was bitter for him. This was because he wanted me to be brought up in a loving and caring way. He pushed to send me to private religious school. He was a lay cantor, and knew how to sing from the depths of the heart and soul. We used to play the best of cantorial music at home. His music inspired my eyebrows to turn upward to God. It inspired my daughter to become a cantor. Gabriel Bross maintained his many great and gentle traits despite having endured several concentration camps in Poland and Germany!

A WITNESS

He was a witness for the prosecution at the Nurenburg Trials, testifying against the head of Auschwitz, Rudolf Hoess. After the Nurenburg Trials, Hoess was hung at Auschwitz in 1947. My dad famously pulled Hoess’ ear as he walked down to Nuremburg Court aisles, and as a show of disrepect for the former head commandant and chief executor of the Fuhrer’s “Final Solution.”

THE HOLOCAUST REALLY HAPPENED

Hoess’ son has a Youtube apparently claiming the Holocaust slaughter of 6 million Jews never happened. I am fortunate for having gotten my dad’s direct account as well as his documented records from the Holocaust archives in Switzerland. Steven Spielberg filmed my dad and in order to preserve, for generations, a record of the horrors of the Holocaust.  Because my dad was also a shoemaker, and the German army was in need of boots to endure harsh winters, he somehow came out alive from the gates of Hell. There were several close calls within. While he survived the Nazi’s most inhumane treatment, he did not live past what I consider as unconsciously evil thrusts of our modern allopathic medical system.

TRUST AND FAITH

Gabriel Bross was such a simple man. He was totally trusting at times. He had little or no inkling just how corrupt our modern medical care delivery system tends to be - misguided by both commercialism or the profit-motive and a mechanical view of the universe and our body – or the body as if composed of separate machine parts to be surgically cut out and replaced like car parts. He was as misguided as most medical students are by the established system of education.

OPTING FOR HOSPICE

Melinda and I visited Gabriel Bross in Florida, and after some doctor-administered drugs made him temporarily psycho. We diligently put dad under hospice care. This was just a year earlier. We knew hospice could have been a far better fate. He was not required to take the morphine there and could even remain at home. Also he had a slow progressing prostate cancer that didn’t need to be operated upon. However, his medical guardian and life-long Holocaust-survivor friend thought differently. He was a follower of the same “allopathic religion” that says surgery, radiation and drugs are whatcha-need to heal. The hospital and doctors were therefore allowed to operate on him repeatedly. This was unconscionable at his age. To be blunt, a 90 year-old diabetic could not possibly endure so being knifed. Outside the profit-motive I saw no justification.

GOING BLIND

Actually for nearly half a century my dad had been a diabetic. He took his insulin daily and religiously as the doctor advised. Following this advise, he went predictably blind. We really tried to tell him otherwise, but to no avail. Taking insulin feeds a multi-billion dollar treatment industry rather than a true and honest healing of our bodies. It caters to Eli Lily’s corporate propaganda. Pharmaceutical propaganda is the most corrupt of all on our planet’s media channels. Their justifications are unscientific, just as bloodletting’s justifications were in ancient Greek and medieval times. Taking insulin for a lifetime doesn’t heal Type I or II diabetes. The claim that there are no natural cures is untrue.Thus fragile blood vessels are destroyed over time and eyesight is lost. Going blind is very symbolic of the essential fruits of a medical care system that is grounded in unconsciously blind principles.

BEYOND THE MODERN MEDICAL RELIGON

In our times, as the Robert Mendelsohn, MD’s Confessions of a Medical Heretic points out, doctors have become like priests in our culture. We trust them with out lives. Major media feed the trust, because they depend on the advertising dollars of pharmaceutical conglomerates. I tried to tell my dad a little of this, but he did not believe me. I also told him there was another way – more honest and integral. But again he couldn’t believe me. It involved too deep a cultural shock.  I was never adorned with long-flowing white hospital vestments. Nor did I wear a stethoscope (symbolic of the mechanical worldview) like a priest or nun wears a cross over his chest. Also I never hung any MD diploma on my office wall, the seal of final bestowed-upon revelation that one “knows” what one’s talking about. My dad was definitely an unquestioning old-school believer. His first caretaker was just as much. She as blindly followed the allopathic prescriptions, chemically polluting her own body’s interior until she finally died in her young 50′s.

THE IMPORTANCE OF FATHER’S DAY

Father’s Day is for me a most vital time to remember a priceless inheritance. Financially his inheritance was zilch. Spiritually it was worth more than a trillion dollars.

AND MORE

At the same time each Father’s Day reminds me that we must be both loving of and very critical of the lessons of old – of our parents and teachers. We really need entirely new worldviews.  Thousands of years ago, the very deepest of authentic spiritual traditions (Daoist, Essene, Christian, Sufi, Buddhist, etc) did not have to face head on the invention of atomic weapons or the proliferation of chemical/genetic pollution or the consciousness-pollution of the underlying math-bound, mechanical vision of nature. It takes really new-borne skills to see through so vast a cosmically-stretched deception. With that deception, we synthetically reconstruct our bodies and surrounding nature accordingly. Countless species have become extinct as a result.

NEVER AGAIN

The rally cry after the Holocaust was “Never Again.” On a new front, we should not passively follow our parents steps to creating the present non-sustainable eco-holocaustic world . No doubt my children will concur, even if in very different ways. As Bill Crosby once said: “If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right.”

My dear dad, bless him, gave me little “clever guidance.” I could never discuss differential or integral calculus, a balance sheet or income statement, or any ivory-tower philosophical paradox. But my dad could speak to me of the truths of his heart, and that is a rare language to master. For he imparted thereby a wisdom of the soul. As a father he thus did better than most. I feel honored that he was my father in spirit.  I will continue to miss him constantly.

RE-NAVIGATING

At the same time, I know he shall remain a shining example to me in some ways but not in all ways.  We need new levels of deepest wisdom of both heart and mind united to nowadays navigate so many deceptive and treacherous eco-health minefields and “deadly mind-fields” of our times. Otherwise there may not be endless future generations to honor a Father’s Day.

WHAT IS CONSCIOUSNESS DEMONSTRATED

MORE THAN JUST A THEORY
A theory of “what is consciousness” generally consists of an outline image in our minds that supposedly points to something  real in the world on this subject matter. All our words and symbols are just inner pointing tools to something. Theories are organized ways of orienting or pointing our awareness to things in our world and in relationship to each other. Thus to demonstrate that a particular theory or set of ideas actually points to something systematic, real, valuable and predictable becomes an event.

THE HARDER PROBLEM
Consciousness, however, represents potentially such a vast-touching -upon-all-the-world phenomena that its exploration can take a trillion different confusing directions. Everything we know is something we know in our consciousness.  And sophisticated and intricate theories may only point to some relatively narrow or ivory tower vistas of a part of that whole. These can result in a variety of entanglements of mind which miss the whole point of seeing “what is consciousness” in its full essence. Or one can easily fail to fathom a truly inner-mountain-peak vantage point of this unified and vastest of arenas for knowing.  Adeptly using high abstractions (universal concepts) in a philosophy of consciousness and states of consciousness may thus give but the deceptive appearance of having latched onto this transcendent highest view with some mastery. This is the harder problem in dealing with “consciousness.” However this is easier to be said than attained. An acid test is whether that proposed theory or definition of consciousness can actually help anyone enhance their consciousness or resist the slippages into consciousness diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Otherwise the theory is  just so much  disingenuous jibber-jabber.

TACKLING CONSCIOUSNESS
One highly effective way to get past this “harder problem” is having again an authentically high overview and not a personal or cultural, conceptually-biased orientation. this means looking from above the pointing paths of all concepts because touches everything. This is as if one must look at consciousness from above the entire left/right brain divide which is a superhuman feat.  The left-brain conceptualizes. It forms outline images as pointing tools or the world of ideas as Plato referred to this.  It uses these ideas to separate elements of consciousness and thereby to focus one’s attention. The right brain does the opposite. It helps us unpoint and unfocus. It looks at things as a whole or connectively and non-conceptually or intuitively. Sometimes what is called “right-brain” ends up dominantly functioning in the left-hemisphere of the brain and visa versa because these are two forms of consciousness that are tuning into dominantly by one side or the other, rather than physically bound. One verbalizes and philosophizes with concepts and the other cannot and has no inclination or need.  Here I consider myself to have an advantage in overviewing this study of a trans-split-brain view. This is simply because first I was trained in dominant left-brain skills as a philosopher and math prodigy and experienced the exact opposite, a radical left-brain meltdown causing a brain polarity shift to right-brain or connective consciousness dominance. This was similar to what happened to Jill Bolte Taylor, a Harvard brain scientists who had a stroke that also shut her left-brain down.  It allowed her, and myself similarly, to  visit the internal highways in unusual ways – and from what I consider again a seeing from a higher vantage point. This didn’t mean that when I later returned to using  familiar words and comfortable sentences – speaking English or German or Chinese or Hebrew – that then I discounted the importance of words. I did not abandon the dominantly verbal/mathematical approaches of the west in favor of a solely non-verbal, intuitive, vague or right-brain dominant mysticism – as with indigenous shamans . On the contrary, I sensed the huge and profound need to bridge these two worlds. It seemed now that I had a gift, and could do so with an impersonal, conscious and intentional approach.

BREAKING GROUND FOR A DEFINITION
Ultimately I came to some unique conclusions about truly what consciousness is, and resulting in  the following definition and theory which I consider of priceless value for the development of a higher consciousness and a conscious mind.  When one enters the raw world of consciousness there is no such thing as a “theory.”  Theories only exist when right and left brain consciousness is severed. When I try thus to state this in so many words – but not really needing those words -  it may make little or no ripples with others at first if my language of expression is not translated.  It is like writing a physics formula on a blackboard and about how to create an atom bomb  – and without first explaining how to apply the formula. The formulas appear meaningless and insignificant – just white marks on a dark blackboard – except to a person who knows the vast implications and pointing paths of those symbols. The responsibility then remains to demonstrate the value of what is created by those symbols (and here for the making of not bombs but  integral healing of life and consciousness within ourselves and throughout nature).

WHAT IS CONSCIOUSNESS?
With this said, let me now offer a definition of consciousness that shakes the foundations of the western worldview – the matter/energy math-defined vision. Imagine that  consciousness forms a potentially universal relationship of connection in all of nature.

Just as chocolate makes up the permeating “essence” of a chocolate bar,  it is another discussion to show that this consciousness also and thereby forms the penetrating, defining and universal essence of nature  (and not mathematical relationships or the  postulated microscopic atomic/subatomic model as what should be centrally focused upon). This means that at the core of nature there is a dance of consciousness and unconsciousness, of connection and separation, rather than a dance of matter and energy defined mathematically. This one idea, theory or definition thus has the potential to change the whole of our vision of nature.   Or when adopted, it can change the heart and soul of the collective view of what is nature and the functioning of our cosmos.

A third discussion is how this same consciousness can permeate nature to higher and lower degrees. The greater permeation or concentration manifests in  life. This means that living organisms, rather than machines brought into being by math-designs, thereby represent nature’s core essence to be elicited or brought out to dominate natural terrains – rather than machines and what is mechanical.

Some philosophers may not at all be open to this kind of thinking about consciousness.

In their minds, they may think it is far more rational and flattering to view the essence of consciousness as tied to higher-order skills in human beings – include self-cognizance  triggered by human brain neurons.  Everyone can define consciousness as they choose, with resulting limited foci. The defining words I use point to a larger and highly revolutionary vision. Here consciousness is not seen as something small, special and proprietary to  human brain cells but as arising out of a universal cosmic terrain from the core of all of nature.  This may shatter the view of the Renaissance, namely of humans being so special.

This view also came to me via a dissolving of the functions of my left-brain conceptual faculty – leaving behind attachments to such flattering conceptualizations.

The foregoing definition still can for a long time remain meaningless until examples are given of how it applies. The applications are powerful.

Note that we really want to know 1) what best brings out consciousness or maintains, nurtures, supports and raises that consciousness and 2) what does the opposite or takes away, destroys, corrupts or lowers consciousness, and how and with what procedures we follow this divide.

AT THE FOUNDATION OF LIFE
Above we referred to a close link between consciousness and life.  Here we refer to, among other things, the sentience and awareness of all living creatures, not just higher order brain skills. It is this awareness that manifests with life and among millions of species as a common denominator. Let us therefore think for a moment of life as the concentrated expression and presence of consciousness. This means living organisms are expressive containers for what brings out the connective essence of nature (consciousness) and rather than machines (per the math-based vision of nature) reflecting nature’s essential laws. So what is the first sign of this special presence of consciousness coming out of the core of nature? Life per se.

Organic life brings forth also certain distinct common features. In fact when an organism remains alive will it retain its connected wholeness. It will display on the surface or as seen in a silvered mirror what I would  call the “badges of organicity.” These are  thin outer signs of  the more important full depth-inner presence of depth-connectedness.

These outer signs include the solar radiance of a flower’s pedals, the rings of a tree, the organic-in-form branching veins of a leaf, the swirls of sea shell, and so on. Again organic forms show off  these beautifully attractive badges when they are reflective of a more deeply present connected whole via living consciousness.

Consider the possibility that consciousness again lies at the foundation of that depth-connectedness which keeps all living forms alive.  Therefore when an organic life dies, it then predictably loses both  the outer organic badge, the whole appearance on the surface,  and its more important inner-depth consciousness or fuller connectedness with. Trigger this undoing of life with a bullet or surgical knife or sword -  cut a living organism progressively into parts – and again it dies. There are exceptions, as the hard form of shells displays the organic badge longer until time it’s elements dissolves into its surroundings.  Ultimately the body’s flesh separates into parts or “falls apart.” It turns to dust in earthen graves. The inner consciousness once connected it more deeply within, and to the world around it as well. Now it is no longer present. This is but a first step in demonstrating  how this theory, definition and understanding  functions in nature. Next we need to visit what are tell-tale signs of any rising, eliciting and support of the presence of  consciousness – and derivatively life?

MORE EXAMPLES OF HOW AND WHY
Here are a few more genres of examples. We can discuss the details in future blog post.

A) Water elicits life and consciousness
Water’s essence in the mechanical/math-based/atomic worldview is H2O. In a life-centered worldview it establishes the connective relationship to elicits life and consciousness from every seed – and detoxifies, purifies, and helps re-establish life and raise consciousness in ourselves. There are several ways of demonstrating how water so function, and in this context why it brings out the rainbow, forms bubbles, rounds the sharp/oppositional corners of rocks, puts out fire, and so on.

B) Fire destroys life and consciousness
This is works on the same principle in reverse. This is why various states of inflammation are acute harbinger of later chronic illnesses,  when inflammation is not healed. The effect is a lowered state of inner health, wholeness, connectedness and overall awareness. When a person is angry, or their emotions are inflamed, the This is why largely uncooked,

C) Love elicits life and consciousness; hate and fear the  opposite
Love establishes an emotional connective relationship. Hate and fear do the opposite. This is why an angry person is not well aware of their surroundings, another persons feelings, etc. Anger and fear inflame emotions and bring on fiery adrenalin . Love guides us to connective oneness with what is loved. Hate and fear brake us away from that connective oneness in our consciousness.

D) Money corrupts consciousness.
Money mathematizes awareness. The lusting for money makes a marriage with the mechanical worldview.  This lowers consciousness, brings us into deeper states of illusion and corruptions of consciousness – where illusion is the falling apart of the integrity of the essence consciousness, its awareness of connective oneness. A money-centered society thus traps others in countless deceptions. It  puts everyone in competitive opposition to each other. It elicits fiery friction and feeds on fears and addictions to move an economy “forward.” It does not integrally evolve our human consciousness, the essence of our being, and the key to our evolution.

E) Chemicals harm Life; pollute the environment; upset the ecology of the whole planet, cause species to die
Take a random and large mix of chemicals, to test not individual separate chemicals but the underlying math-based order, and the mix will kill and destroy all of life and consciousness in the compost heap. The compost heap is symbolic. It is were a large and random mix, in fact all plant life forms can decay to form the building materials of all other plant life forms in an endless and integral circle of unity. The philosophy of chemistry, the math-based worldview, clashes and thus when widely and deeply applied will destroy life and consciousness in nature. This is why we have an epidemic of species dying.

F) Surgery, radiation and chemical drugs – chief tools of allopathic medicine – fail to truly heal consciousness ailments .
We see this with the health epidemics of cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s. To reverse these ills both in ourselves, and on a culture-wide basis, involves a true and revolutionary global mind change – a moving to a different essential vision of what is the core  of nature, and our innermost being. It sets us on a different course to healing rather than ills. A true global mind change thus first heals our consciousness and its relationship to our mind’s understanding of the world, then emotions, body, and being in this world or to all that surrounds us each day of our lives.

Can there be a science of consciousness that is real and substantive – with practical applications – rather than a mystical, feel-nice discipline that really leads us nowhere?

Obviously there can be such a thing when consciousness is an incredibly vital component of our daily lives. How can we master this consciousness and as more than a whimsical art?

DIABETES
For example, at the foundation of diabetes is a stark consciousness disease. We call it neuropathy. It manifests when a diabetic steps on a nail and can’t feel a thing. Understanding consciousness as a science could help us dramatically heal diabetes (which is presently considered  incurable). We see this potential reflected in Gabriel Cousens’ new program that actually helps reverse diabetes within just 30 days. He applies consciousness principles.

METASTATIC  CANCER
Spreading and unnoticed cancer can reflect a consciousness disease. A person who understands consciousness could then help another and oneself overcome this scourge. I discovered this when I worked with Charlotte Gerson to help many patients reverse metastatic cancer conditions.

ALZHEIMER’S
Alzheimer’s disease is still another consciousness ailment. Just dispensing  wonder drugs generally doesn’t work. Quite seriously we then need a different kind of understanding and science.

A REAL SCIENCE OF CONSCIOUSNESS
Thus if the presence and absence of consciousness is strikingly real for healthy and ill persons, then the knowledge thereof can help reverse our ill states of consciousness. First we need to know exactly “what is consciousness” to begin with.

MASTER KEY
I have tried to outline a certain powerful definition. Prior to grappling with this, it may be helpful to forgo any personal arrogance that assumes “consciousness” is merely a human attribute. Imagine instead that consciousness forms a a potentially universal relationship of connection in and throughout all of nature.  Imagine also that this allows various microorganisms to have sentience. Imagine lastly that this consciousness co-habits with its opposite or  unconsciousness. Exact knowledge of this “co-habitation” or how the two interact, can help us heal ourselves and revolutionize our personal lives and overall culture.

The public is generally not aware that dietary protocols can make a huge difference in treating systemic ailments. There is no money in it. Thus the commercial medical establishment is not very interested in this approach. However,  most cases of type II Diabetes can be reversed by dietary means.  You won’t believe this if you are taken in by that powerful medical establishment that funds media outlets, but diabetes is actually the easiest of the six or seven major chronic conditions of our times to help turnaround. So the first step is to read this blog post to the end, with an independent open mind. Let not others dictate, consciously and subconsciously, or manipulate truths.

RESULTS OF A MEDICAL STUDY OF THE VEGAN DIET APPLIED TO DIABETES
A 2006 study by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine with the George Washington University and University of Toronto, looked at  low-fat, unrefined, vegan diets for type 2 diabetes. Portions of vegetables, grains, fruits, and legumes were unlimited. The vegan group’s health was compared to those following an American Diabetes Association (ADA) guidelines-based diet. The results after 22 weeks were astounding:

• 43 % of the vegan group and 26 % of the ADA group reduced their diabetes medications. This means the vegan diet was doubly as effective. Among those who didn’t reduce medications, the vegan group still lowered hemoglobin A1C, an index of blood glucose control, by 1.2 points, 3x the comparable change in the ADA group.
• The vegan group also lost an average of 13 pounds, the ADA group 9 pounds.
• Among those who didn’t change their lipid-lowering medications, the vegans had greater decreases in their LDL cholesterol levels.Why does a vegan diet have this healing effect?The digestion of animal proteins and fats leave acid residues. Generally our body fluids can handle these residues if the portion of animal proteins and fats is less than 5% of the caloric intake. If it is more, the fluids can change their PH and thereby begin an illness process. This has been verified by numerous studies. most notably the grand prix of all nutritional studies  - The China Study.  Needless to say the meat industry does not want to hear this. They have helped pass libel laws in several states, to the point of being a felony to say anything negative, and to prevent anyone from speaking out the truth.

RAW VEGAN DIET
Now to the next higher step. While a vegan diet helps lower the A1C index by 1.3 points this is not enough to really reverse or cure the ailment. Thus it appears there is no cure – and not even with dietary intervention. However, what is not commonly know is that a raw or living food vegan diet makes more of a difference.. This diet is 5x better at lowering the A1C than with the cooked vegan diet, or 15x overall better!  This earth-shaking  result was demonstrated by Dr. Gabriel Cousens and is brought out in his very deeply moving and revolutionary Simply Raw – Reversing Diabetes in 30 Days.  I am meeting with my local Congressman to see if we can find public funding for a larger study. When that knowledge of the power of diet gets out the general public,  the multi-billion dollar insulin industry will be in trouble and the patients not.

We need to thus breakthrough the industry blackout.  Their profits are threatened. They will fight to preserver their turf.

WHY THE RAW VEGAN DIET MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE
What happens with insulin patients is as follows. A vegan diet leaves again less acid traces in body fluids. It is more alkaline. Meat digestion is especially acid. Again if meat is more than 5% of the diet, the body fluids can’t handle it and disease processes begin. A raw vegan diet is then needed because in a diabetes patient the cell membranes and their receptors fail to recognize and allow insulin, proteins and other vital nutrients to penetrate the interior.  They are dead or no longer conscious to preform that function. Secondly those membranes are largely made out of fat. When this fat is almost entirely denatured and devitalized (via things like McDonald’s French Fries)  the body begins to enter a crude downward cycle. Eliminate trans-fats, cooked fats and rancid and processed oils plus acid-forming sugars – eat only raw, whole, low-glycemic vegan foods – and suddenly the whole life-support system of the body come back on track.

For more information on why we need to bring the living forces back into the body, we my raw-wisdom articles on a life-centered vision of nature – the opposite of the mechanical view that was introduced in the 17th century and which grounds virtually all of modern medicine, makes a marriage with commercial-profit-oriented businesses, and explains why that form of medical is failing to heal. In those articles I explain the importance of acid/alkaline balance from a life-centered vision of approach. Remember that diabetes is a life-force or consciousness illness – why it results in neuropathy.  Having the wrong core paradigms to treat and prevent that ailment is why the pandemic of diabetes is so uncontrolled and rising. Modern medicine is a wholesale failure at stopping the pandemic. There are reasons why.

THE SECRET
I will let you in on a secret. In comparison to reversing cancer, diabetes is actually easy to accomplish.  I once help founded a natural cancer treatment center, and we could only help and rescue about a third of the patients. This was because most come in the later stages of that disease’s progression. With diabetes it  is much, much easier to reverse the chronic condition. The stats are far higher. Again you just need to step outside the conventional, money-making-oriented paradigms, the mind-control,  and the mechanical view of our bodies and in fact of all of nature.  That diabetes can be reversed has been the experience of the brilliant, powerful and dynamic leaders in this field: Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Dr. Gabriel Cousens, Dr. Neal Barnard, and Dr. John McDougal, among many others. In the future we plan to offer key book summaries, CDs, interviews to get the word out and so we can pursue this crusade and bring truths to those who suffer and have been kept in the dark and are kept blind.

DEDICATION TO MY DAD
This effort is my dedicated to my dearest and most beloved dad. After having gone through concentration camps in Germany, he also had diabetes for nearly 50 years. He only trusted the establishment. He went blind toward the end of his life.

YOU HAVE TO READ THIS – WHY THE ADA REMAINS DEATHLY SILENT
Dr. Fuhman had a patient who was a school principal and whose diabetes was reversed. She wrote a moving article about her experience in a magazine that gets distributed to school principals. Someone at the American Diabetes Association read the article, contracted Dr. Fuhrman and asked him to write about his therapy in their magazine. They even sent him  $750 to pay him to do so. He wrote the article and then got a call saying they can’t publish the article as is and that he needs to tone it down. Why? Because he was saying that he could get his patients routinely off insulin. The problem was that Eli Lily, which makes  3-4 billion dollars selling insulin, also is the main funder of the ADA magazine and they would never go for it. So Dr. Fuhrman ended up returning the check. This is typical in the politics of modern medicine. The industry giants especially dominate the World Diabetes Day conference and similarly influential events. As with the film Food, Inc (about the growing ill effects of modern mechanized agriculture) most of the public does not know what really goes on behind the scenes in the modern entrenched politics of medicine. It is all about money rather than the stirrings of the heart and uncorrupted truths.

ACTIVISM – IT IS UP TO US TO MAKE A CHANGE
Thus it is up to us to make a ground swelling change. Please get a copy of Dr. Cousens’ revolutionary video and distribute it to as many friends as possible.  The suffering is so great out there. Because we care, we can and we will make a revolutionary change in modern medicine.

Our health care delivery system really is a wholesale shambles and our children suffer the most as a result.  Rarely do you find physicians promoting natural healing and preventive measures because that’s not where the money is. Our children are the fall-guys and  as adults they also reap the harvest of life-long chronic disease. Here are some of the main health statistics to back up this statement

CHILDREN WITH CHRONIC AILMENTS
The number of children with chronic diseases has nearly quadrupled since the time when some parents were children. In the 1960’s 1.8 % of children reported a chronic ailment. In 2004 it was 7.0. In 2006 it was 7.3% so that these statistics seem to keep rising.

CHILDREN WITH DIABETES
One in three children born this century will have diabetes. Diabetes is a life-long debilitating illness that yields more heart disease, blindness and neuropathy – yet diabetes is really preventable and reversible.

CHILDREN WITH CARDIOVASCULAR RISK FACTORS
By the age of 12, 70% will have signs of the hardening of arteries. Between the ages of 5-10, 60% have at least one risk factor associated with cardiovascular disease; 20% have two or more.

CHILDREN OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE
1 in 4 children will be obese or overweight in the past three decades. Nearly 50% of  the obese and overweight children will remain so in their adult life. One 1 out of 4 children are on food stamps buying mostly processed, high-sugar junk foods.

CHILDREN WITH CANCER
Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease among children. Incident rates have risen about 25% over the last 30 years.

ADULTS OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE
Two-thirds of all adult Americans are now overweight.

ASTHMA
We have twice the asthma rates since the 1980’s. 9% of children have asthma.

ADHD AND LEARNING DISABILITIES
7-8% of school age children are diagnosed with ADHD or attention deficit disorder. Also 8% will have signs of a learning disability. ADHD was not on the radar in the 1960’s. About 2-3% of children are on medications for these conditions.

CHILDREN ON RITALIN
In 1990 the number of children on Ritalin was approximately 900,000 and has in two decades risen to 4-5 million.

ADULT CANCER
One in two men and one in three women will develop cancer in their lifetime.

TAKING DRUGS
Otherwise half of Americans have a chronic health problem (asthma and arthritis included) whereby they are taking prescription drugs every week.

HIGH CHOLESTEROL
100 million Americans have high cholesterol.

RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS
There has been a 50% rise in rheumatoid arthritis among women in the past two decades.

MULTIPLE CHRONIC DISEASES
More Americans are being diagnoses with multiple chronic diseases.

MOST ON THE RISE
The main chronic diseases in the US are on the rise, especially Alzheimer’s, diabetes, mental illness and obesity.

CANCER AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES
There has been no real progress in bringing down the death rate from cardiovascular disease or cancer. Since the year 1900 cancer rates have at least tripled.

Our expensive medical system does not focus on low-cost prevention means but rather on expensive, profit-generating medical and drug treatment. The system is really broken and needs to be overhauled. Physicians should be paid in relationship to keeping people healthy not for prolonged sick care. Our children suffer the greatest brunt of this mess. It is  hugely tragic. None of this has really been tackled or grabbed by the horns with our currently proposed government healthcare reforms.

CONVENTIONAL EDUCATION & PREVENTION
As today is World Diabetes Day we want to honor their chosen theme of  “Diabetes Education and Prevention.” However, and in truth, the phrase “education and prevention” doesn’t necessarily mean the same to everybody. What it means to the International Diabetes Organization and 12  or more drug companies who sponsor World Diabetes Day is more help to  “manage” diabetes type 1 and 2 patients using insulin. The phrase “diabetes cure” is all but forbidden as it would shut down a multi-billion dollar industry. The terms “diabetes treatment” or control are safe to use.  What guarantees the billions for Big Pharma is the life-long dependency of millions on insulin.

AN ALTERNATIVE VIEW
On the other hand, if you see the file “Simply Raw: Reversing Diabetes in 30 Days” then the words “Education and Prevention” mean something entirely else and of more substance. The truth is that we can prevent and reverse  diabetes mellitus and insipidus, and help alleviate the pains of  juvenile diabetes using a raw organic and living foods diet.  Reversing diabetes means you are treating the cause and not the symptom of high blood sugar. No doubt insulin has saved countless lives, but it really something you want to use regularly or be addicted to? My dad, God bless him, was addicted to the medical care system and the end result was that he went blind. This was terrible for him and the whole family! The goal should rather be to get a sufferer off such medications as quickly as possible. Of course, that would bankrupt the drug companies who sell insulin – and so its a no one is allowed to suggest that.

THE EXPERIENCE OF DR. FUHRMAN
A case in point is the following Dr. Joel Fuhrman treated a principal of a high school and got her to reverse her diabetic condition. She wrote an article about it in a magazine that is distributed to principals, although someone from the American Diabetic Association happened to have read it and was impressed. Dr. Fuhrman was ask to write an article about what he was doing for the ADA’s magazine. He was sent a $750 ahead of time for the article. After he sent a draft, he heard back that they could not publish it in its present form because it advocated getting off of insulin and Eli Lilly was the main sponsor of the ADA’s magazine and they wouldn’t go for that. Needless to say, Dr. Fuhrman refused to doctor up his article and sent them back their $750

THE BLACKOUT ON DR. COUSENS’, DR. FURHMAN, & OTHER NON-DRUG APPROACHES
No need to be surprised if there is no mention of Dr. Cousens’ or similar approaches on the World Diabetes Day website – namely the use of a raw, living and other dietary approaches.

WHERE TO TURN
To help foster some authentic “Education and Prevention” for World Diabetes Day, we ask others to check out a really amazing DVD  and its trailer SIMPLY RAW:Reversing Diabetes in 30 Days. along with the companion Raw for

LOCAL SHOWINGS
We’ve done two local showings  of this film. It seems to have turned around several lives – including that of one close friend. He quickly lost 50 lbs and became revitalized. During the week of World Diabetes Day, the film is available on the web at a fraction of its regular cost. The following educational materials are given away free along with the DVD and the whole set represents authentic rather than doctored up information on how to prevent and reverse diabetes. It can greatly help those suffering from this terrible illness that has become such a worldwide scourge and pandemic.
