Recently, I have read an article of Charles S. I got curious with his testimony since I was using the same protocol that made me a lot better after months of chest pain and feeling of exhaustion. His testimony had given me confidence and encouragement that the protocol works. I started my blog with the purpose of sharing my success especially to my friends and family members who are undergoing the same problem. Few of my friends and relatives have succumbed to Cardiovascular Diseases. Their are few more who are still alive but are struggling with the disease on the daily bases. Sharing this knowledge might save lives.
How To Reverse Cardiovascular Disease
BY CHARLES S
3 months after major heart attack - thanks to Linus Pauling, Vit C & Lysine
18 months after major heart attack, heart disease "still" cured - running up steps is easy!
Reversing cardiovascular disease or, much better, preventing it in the first place is - contrary to popular medical belief - not only possible, it's awfully easy.
In fact there are numerous ways toprevent or cure heart disease. How hard is it to type "heart disease cure" into a search engine? Here I share Dr Linus Pauling's method because it's the first cure I learned about years ago, worked exactly as claimed by Pauling, and continues to work for me, and I believe will work for anyone intelligent enough to try it.
If you are looking for a simpler, saner alternative to medicine's blinkered drugs and surgery approach to CVD, then you might be interested in my story of how I reversed my own CVD(cardiovascular disease) in about one week.
Clogged Arteries
There's only one way to prevent or cure CVD, and that's to unclog the arteries. There are different ways to unclog arteries. I use Linus Pauling's method because it allows me to eat and drink "normally" and not require any medications. I don't even take aspirin.
Who has these clogged arteries? You do. I used to. Basically, everyone who is not following a proven program to unclog them. Yes, even children. Our arteries start clogging early and continue until they cause a heart attack or stroke. It's not a case of ifone in four of us (or whatever the statistic is today) will suffer a heart attack or stroke, it's a matter of when.

Abram Hoffer-Part 3
By the mid-1960s, according to Hoffer, psychiatry was emphasising the use of neuroleptic drugs. Hoffer claims that he and like-minded researchers, calling themselves "orthomolecularists", were snubbed and became the victims of a conspiracy, with their reports rejected by scientific journals. In 1967, Hoffer resigned his academic and administrative positions, entered into private psychiatric practice in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and created the Journal of Schizophrenia as a means of publishing articles rejected by mainstream journals. After several name changes, the journal was called the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine in 1986. In 1976, Hoffer relocated to Victoria, British Columbia and continued with his private psychiatric practice until his retirement in 2005. Hoffer continued to provide nutritional consultations and served as editor of the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine. He was also President of the Orthomolecular Vitamin Information Centre in Victoria, BC.
Hoffer died May 27, 2009 in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.

Abram Hoffer-Part 2
Abram Hoffer (November 11, 1917 – May 27, 2009) was a Canadian psychiatrist known for his claims that nutrition and megadoses of vitamins are effective treatments for schizophrenia. This general approach, called orthomolecular medicine by its proponents and questioned by most of the mainstream medical community, includes the use of megavitamins and is commonly called megavitamin therapy.
Biography
Hoffer received a degree in agriculture from the University of Saskatchewan in 1938, followed by a Masters degree in agricultural chemistry in 1940. He received a PhD in biochemistry from the University of Minnesota in 1944 with research into vitamin content of cereals. Hoffer graduated with an MD from the University of Toronto in 1949 and completed psychiatric training in 1954.
Hoffer was a faculty member of the College of Medicine at the University of Saskatchewan from 1955–67 and served as the Director of Psychiatric Research for the Saskatchewan Department of Public Health in Regina from 1950–67. He stated that half the patients housed in the mental hospital were diagnosed as suffering from schizophrenia and that the conditions in the mental hospital and the treatment of these patients were poor, and looked for better answers to treat the mentally ill. Critical of psychiatry for its emphasis on psychosomatic psychoanalysis and for what he considered a lack of adequate definition and measurement, Hoffer felt that biochemistry and human physiology should be used instead. He hypothesised that schizophrenics lack the ability to remove a hallucinogenic metabolite adrenochrome from their brains. He speculated that he could decrease the concentration of adrenochrome in the brain by using vitamin C to reduce adrenochrome to adrenaline and using niacin as a methyl acceptor to prevent the conversion of noradrenaline into adrenaline. Hoffer called his theory the "adrenochrome hypothesis".

Abram Hoffer
When a family member is suffering from mental disorder, everyone feels disheartened and distressed. All you wanted is the best solution other than tranquilizers and dangerous drugs. When I asked our psychiatrist if all the drugs he prescribed were safe, I sensed he himself is not totally sure. I did some research and was horrified knowing their side effects. A man who was taking the same medicine our doctor prescribed run amok and killed some bystander after weeks of taking the medicine. Right there and then I threw all prescription drugs and started some megavitamins that comes from natural sources and is a lot safer compared to those chemicals manufactured from Laboratories. I continued my research on vitamins which are appropriate for psychosis until I stumbled upon the orthomolecular Medicine and its proponents.
I would like to share the biography of Abram Hoffer a psychiatrist whose approach in treating mental disorder is called Orthomolecular Medicine. He claimed that nutrition and mega dose of vitamins are effective in treating schizophrenia.

psychosis
What is psychosis?
according to wikipedia:
Psychosis (from the Greek ψυχή "psyche", for mind/soul, and -ωσις "-osis", for abnormal condition) means abnormal condition of the mind, and is a generic psychiatric term for a mental state often described as involving a "loss of contact with reality". People suffering from psychosis are said to be psychotic.
Symptoms such as: can not tell what is real and what is not , hallucinations, delusions, confusion, difficulty in doing even ordinary activities.
When a close kin of mine went through having these symptoms, we were devastated,we thought its the end of her and that we can not do anything but accept such fate and suffer with her forever.
I tried to know what it is all about. When I learned that its treatable, I mustered some courage to do all I can do what is best for her.
Psychosis affects 3 in 100 people, and usually occurs for the first time between the ages of 15 and 30. Men often develop psychosis 5 to 10 years younger than women. In our case it all started from a severe stress due to worries, then followed by sleep deprivation and hearing of voices, sometimes angry voices which continued for a long period. She started singing, sometimes as early as three in the morning and even with a loud singing. Sometimes she could be mildly violent.
The first recourse which is not easy is decide to find help... and that means mental health clinic which nobody would ever want to go. To seek for help earlier from professionals such as psychiatric doctors is the best we can do. Psychosis if given immediate medical attention would be the best move so far.

Insanity part 2
Going near a mentally ill person is scary, imagine yourself sleeping, eating or living with them for days.... must be a nightmare huh? well, I did and I survived. In fact, at a time, I was mistaken as one of the inmates. The guy who visited the mental center got scared when I went near him.
staying with the mental patients is also an adventure, though I was just forced to stay to watch a close kin. I was nearly attacked by one of them, They pee in their beds, shout almost the whole time til dawn. The first time I step inside the cell is not pleasant at all, its depressing, its almost similar entering a prison, windows are made of iron so as the door which is locked at 7 PM,until 6:00 AM, most patients are tied to their beds. Nobody under 15 is allowed. The cell where I stayed is like a halfway house where patients were treated for a week. After which, if their condition is not improving they were recommended to move to another building for further treatment that would last for months. Once you have pass the certain period and could recover, the management could now give you a certain period for observation, by this time you will be given responsibility like cleaning and is scheduled for release.
The brief encounter with them is not all scary but moving, when you began to interact with them knowing their stories, you would feel more sympathy to these people who were just unfortunate. It just that they run out of luck, and it happened to them, Once you began understanding their situation you start to pity them, they are individuals who needs more understanding and care and not as object of ridicule, to be hated or be feared of, or treated like having a contagious diseases.
In the past having this illness is the end of the line, like being dead but that was in the past, the illness is curable, all they need is an environment of love and care especially with their love ones... as the saying goes, Love conquers all...

Insanity
Julia Buang, (Julie the crazy) the town's most popular mentally ill person. As a kid we use to tease her. She always without fail respond with a smile. she use to entertain us with her kind of dance. she usually wears flowers in her ears, her clothing is not usual at that time but I found it to be similar these days seeing models of signature apparels walking in a ramp.
That was my first encounter with someone who is suffering from mental disorder. later on I saw a distant relative restricted in her prison like room, she too is suffering from mental disorder. she looked pitiful but the family has to restrained her or else she would wander around and may cause more trouble.
Few years back, we were tasked to take care of a friend who is beginning to experience a mental breakdown, that was my closest encounter with someone who is mentally unhealthy. My left thumb was just operated, the doctor took out puss from my thumb which had suffered from being burned earlier. It was on bandage, the wound is still very fresh. it was on that very time when we were trying to restrain our mentally ill friend inside the taxi going to mental hospital. All of the sudden she grabbed my wounded thumb and squeezed it firmly. I wanted to shout at the top of my voice from pain.
Since most of them are violent we fear and shy away from them but these people needs our love and care. Just recently I have lived, slept and ate with these people inside a jail like mental hospital ward room.
I'll share my first hand experience inside the mental hospital on the next episode... see you later.
