L-lysine and Sodium Ascorbate

In April 2008,  during my month of preparation to scale  Mt. Pico de loro, I started to feel pain at the center of my chest,  though a little bit worried, I did not give so much attention since my mind is focus on a mountain of about 664 mts high. It was categorized as easy climb, so for me the trek was just for fun since I already climbed Mt Apo, the highest mountain in the Philippines way back in 1981. 

In May of the same year, we gather more friends and climbed Pico once more, this time we stayed overnight on the top of the mountain. From there, I noticed the pain grew and persisted almost every time until December. It was also of the same period where I always thought of going earlier to the other world (Spirit World). My wife had been encouraging me to see a doctor but I chose to find other ways.  

I started to spend more time in the internet for the answer, hoping for a miracle. This lead me to discover a formula shared by Burton Linne, thanks to him. I started reading concepts of Dr Rath and Paulings where Mr. Linne got most of his ideas.  I got excited to know the explaination about heart desease.

They gave me the idea that Sodium Ascorbate (Vit C) , L-lysine and L-Proline (both amino Acids) will not only stop plaque from accumulating in your arteries but remove it completely as well.

Well, reading is not enough, I tried L-lysine, Sodium ascorbate minus the L-Proline which is anyway my body could still produce and not easy to find in the market, GNC even could not provide me with it.  The pain is gone and I feel great, the combination of L-Lysine and Sodium Ascorbate has given me a great relief.  

I don't have much time, ill go back to you later to discuss further about this newly found formula. 

Carbon Dioxide

I was told that we have to move out indoor plants in the night because they release carbon dioxide which is bad for humans, an article in the newspaper was saying we have to use other materials in making houses but the logs since dead trees produce carbon dioxide in the air, again, bad for humans. We are even prohibited to fart or to pass gas in the presence of others ......its carbon dioxide!!!

According to Dr. Buteyko, a russian scientist and medical doctor carbon dioxide is the basic nutrition of every life form of earth. It acts as the main regulator of all functions in the organism; it is the main internal environment of the organism; it is the vitamin of all vitamins."

He discovered that the real cause of asthma and other related diseases is a radical depletion of CO2 - carbon dioxide - in the lungs. This isn't so strange when we learn that oxygen cannot be assimilated by cells without adequate amounts of CO2. There is only 0.03% carbon dioxide in the atmosphere today. Yet to absorb oxygen a healthy body requires about 6.5% carbon dioxide in the alveoli of the lungs. Therefore your lungs act to trap in some of the carbon dioxide produced by your body. Should the level of carbon dioxide in human lungs fall to 3%, it is fatal.

Paradoxically, while overbreathing means we are taking in more air,we are actually receiving less oxygen in vital areas of our brain and body.

Excess Carbon Dioxide Loss Leads to Mucus, Tightening, Spasms Unfortunately, over time this chronic overbreathing, causes an above normal loss of carbon dioxide (CO2)—a gas most of us believe is a "waste gas", but in reality is a precious gas which is required for critical regulation of many bodily functions. One of the most important functions of CO2 is to regulate the acid/alkaline balance of our blood, because if the blood becomes too acidic or too alkaline, we will die. When the blood becomes too acidic due to too much CO2 in the lungs, (as in the case of holding one's breath for too long), a person faints—a defense mechanism. When the blood becomes too alkaline due to too little CO2 in the lungs, (caused by overbreathing), oxygen forms a tight bond with hemoglobin (the Bohr Effect *), inhibiting oxygen release to the tissues. In an effort to prevent further CO2 loss, the lungs secrete mucus, airways tighten and smooth muscles spasm—again, a defense mechanism, which we call "asthma attack".

So, the next time you fart......say "praise the lord".

Papaya leaves

I was chatting with a friend whose wife has been hospitalized few days earlier. I was trying to ask about his wife status since she had high fever with a very low blood platelet count and suspected to suffer from either dengue or typhoid fever. Her doctor could not yet determine the problem even after they left the hospital.

He got excited telling me about his new found medicine which is cheap and readily available.... The papaya leaves.... as far as I can remember papaya leaves is not edible we could not find any use for it, we just play it about anything we could imagine as a child. When I stayed in Indonesia way back in 1989, I was surprised knowing that I was eating a vegetable made from papaya leaves.

My friend gave his wife papaya leaves shake, a combination of papaya leaves and water mixed from the blender. After drinking the unfamiliar tasting formula, the wife felt better. They made laboratory test for the blood platelet count and to their surprise, it had increased to a normal level. No more fever and she was fast recovering from weakness.

Two days after, I read a posting from my yahoo group about papaya leaves as a cure for Dengue, the article says that it could bring the platelet count back to normal.

Up until this days, medical science has yet to discover many worders in nature to improve the the efficacy of modern medicines. Billions of dollars has been spent for reseach to discover new drugs but it seems that deseases that plaque mankind are still out of control. Why???

Can we say the answer my friend is blowin in the wind?.... or shall we say the answer is in the hearts of man.

Is Big C really curable?

I stumble upon Dr. Matthias Rath's discoveries regarding the dreaded deseases responsible for more than 80% in all deaths in industialized countries, the Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease.

Dr. Rath explained that 90% of all cancer fatalities result from metastasis, the invasion of cancer cells to other organs and tissues. This discovery is a very important scientific breakthrough since understanding how cancer cells metastasized can be a way to properly manage and eventually stop it from spreading to other cells and organs of the body.

To seek for an answer, He experimented on how cancer cells can find its way to other cells and organs so he can develope a method to control it.

He said that If we want to understand how disease spreads in the body, we have to take a look at the way cells move through the body. This is easy to explain in the case of red and white blood cells: these cells are just carried along in the blood stream. However, it is more difficult to imagine how cells composing other organs can move through a body’s strong connective tissue. In order to move through the connective tissue, any cell has to be capable of temporarily dissolving the surrounding tissue—the collagen and elastic fibers -so it can make its way through. For this purpose the cells use enzymes that can temporarily digest and weaken the connective fibers surrounding them.

This same principle is true with the corrupted cells which uses collagen dissolving enzyme to facilitates the spread of diseases through the body. The activation of this collagen-dissolving mechanism leads to the development of aggressive diseases such as cancer and microbial infections.

He then experimented on nutrients that could counter the activities of this collagen dissolving enzyme and results were remarkable. A simple combination of nutrients was able to stop cancer cells from invading the collagen matrix! The most powerful nutrient combination contained vitamin C, the amino acids L-lysine and L-proline, and a polyphenol fraction of green tea known as Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG).

The study indicates that the nutrient combination containing vitamin C, L-lysine, L-proline, and EGCG inhibited MMP-2 and MMP-9, two of the digestive enzymes that cancer cells use to invade tissues in the body. In fact, the more effective the nutrient inhibition of cell movement was, the lower the enzymatic activity of cancer cells.

Because these nutrients can stop the collagen-dissolving activity of cancer cells, they also can stop these same cancer cells from spreading in the body.

If this discovery of Dr Rath could solve one of the most feared diseases haunting us in this planet then, truly victory over cancer is at hand.
