Message from Bernadette Wulf

Season’s Greetings!

As I look back over 2018, I have to say it was a strange year. It wasn’t a bad year at all. I just had the feeling that it was leading up to something. It felt like a year of clearing out old patterns and reviewing what is working and what is not, both personally and collectively, in preparation for the next phase. Perhaps 2019 will reveal what that next phase is for all of us. Here’s wishing you a wonderful next phase. Onward and upward!

This month we have a couple of articles on wonderful herbs that can replace a lot of commercial drugs – always a worthwhile read. There is some good news about natural cancer prevention and treatment, and a really important article for anyone who uses Tylenol or any of its cousins, especially if you have kids, or plan to have them.

As always, I would love to hear what you want to read about. Feel free to send your requests, suggestions, questions, or any sort of feedback. I always appreciate hearing from my readers – Email Bernadette

To your health and happiness!

Warning! Tylenol Can Damage Children’s Brains!

This is big news, but you probably won’t see it in the major media. Pharmaceutical companies and many doctors claim that Tylenol (a brand name for acetaminophen) is perfectly safe. However, several studies have shown that this is not true. In fact, Tylenol seems to be associated with higher levels of ADHD and autism when administered to pregnant women and young children, particularly boys.

Because aspirin can be problematic for children, doctors and pharmacists often recommend acetaminophen instead. But acetaminophen, under its many brand names, can be equally dangerous.

From greenmedinfo.com:

There are (as of January 2017) a total of 8 published studies evaluating the long terms effects on children of acetaminophen use during pregnancy or during childhood. Two of these (one in 2014, one in 2016) were published in JAMA Pediatrics, one of the most highly respected pediatric journals. All studies point toward acetaminophen use being associated with long-term problems with neurological function. 

Why take the risk? There are numerous tried and true natural ways to relieve pain. Aside from application of heat and ice, acupuncture has been shown to work very effectively for many forms of pain.

There are also many herbs that relieve pain. Sixteen of them are listed here: http://naturalsociety.com/16-natures-best-natural-pain-killers/

I know it is hard to resist doing whatever you can to relieve a child’s pain, so it’s a good idea to do some research before you find yourself in that situation. Keep a few reliable remedies on hand just in case you ever need them, including homeopathic arnica for bumps and bruises, magnesium for muscle cramps, a homeopathic ear ache remedy, alcohol-free kid’s herbal extracts, zinc lozenges for sore throats, Elderberry syrup for flu – Gaia brand is the best one I’ve found, unless you make your own.

When it comes to kids, the more we can trust Nature, the better off they will be. That is true for all of us, but children and pregnant women are especially vulnerable to damage from medical interventions.

Gut Bacteria and Colon Cancer

Gut bacteria can make all the difference in whether you develop colorectal cancer or not. Diet is the key.

It shouldn’t be much of a surprise to my readers that a whole foods plant-based diet is the best way to feed the helpful bacteria in your gut – the bacteria that prevent colon cancer.

From chrisbeatcancer.com:

Colorectal cancer patients have been found to have low levels of a protective bacteria called Lachnospiraceae, and high levels of a cancer-promoting bacteria called Fusobacterium. Fusobacterium is known to elicit an inflammatory immune response, and can invade epithelial cells and change DNA pathways, in a bad way.

Lachnospiraceae, the good bacteria, is a type of clostridia that feeds on plant matter (fiber) and produces a short-chain fatty acid called butyrate. Butyrate is known to have substantial anti-tumorigenic properties, including the ability to inhibit tumor cell proliferation.

What feeds the good bacteria? Starch and fiber from plant foods, and eugenol, a compound found in cinnamon, basil, and cloves. Some studies indicate that eugenol is the key to thickening the mucosal lining in your gut, so that bad bacteria like Fusobacterium can’t penetrate it.

[ ] A diet high in animal products (even the grass-fed, organic kind), and low in starch and fiber, feeds Fusobacterium. Simply eliminating animal foods from your diet and replacing them with plant foods (fruits and vegetables, and especially starches like legumes, tubers, and whole grains), can lead to dramatic decreases in Fusobacterium within days!

I also found a study about a single plant food that can KILL Fusobacterium – wild blueberries. Yes!

Don’t put yourself at risk by feeding those nasty Fusobacterium with meat, dairy, and eggs. Load up on wild blueberries (in the freezer section of most grocery stores), starchy vegetables, beans, greens, and fresh fruits.

Homeopathy & Cancer

No thanks to the American Medical Association, homeopathy has been shoved into the background of modern medical treatments in America. Though still widely used in other parts of the world, our AMA systematically worked to undermine trust in homeopathic treatments.

Many people are now convinced that homeopathy is only a placebo. Too bad for them. They are missing out on a powerful healing option that has saved thousands of lives, most notably in the flu epidemic of the early 20th century. The mortality rate in homeopathic hospitals was much lower than in other hospitals.

Looks like homopathy is developing a pretty good track record in the treatment of cancer as well, as this article from thetruthaboutcancer.com indicates:

The first [breakthrough for homeopathy in cancer treatment] was the publishing in 2013 of a book titled The Banerji Protocols – A New Method of Treatment with Homeopathic Medicines. This led to an awareness of the Banerji Clinic in Kolkata, India. The clinic consists of four generations of medical doctors who use state-of-the-art scientific testing methods along with a modern diagnostic approach to the selection of homeopathic remedies. [ ]

The second breakthrough for homeopathy and cancer treatment is the publication of Homeopathic Cancer Drugs, Oncology Materia Medica. Written by Manfred Mueller, this two-volume set is the first time symptoms from the homeopathic materia medica have been listed in the context of modern medical categories. This includes additions from current scientific research. It contains the most current, complete, and accurate array of data for practitioners to reliably select an effective remedy for the pathology of each individual case of cancer. Homeopathic Cancer Drugs is the first clinical materia medica written specifically with the homeopathic oncologist in mind.

The combination of these two enormous bodies of work has brought the use of homeopathic remedies in the treatment of cancer to a whole new level.

If you or a loved on are ever faced with a cancer diagnosis, I hope you will remember that there are many other options for treatment aside from the standard radiation, chemo, and surgery offered by AMA doctors. Get informed now, so you won’t be as overwhelmed if you find yourself in that situation. There ARE natural ways to prevent and heal cancer.

Turmeric Beats Many Drugs without the Dangerous Side Effects

What if you could replace aspirin as a blood thinner, Lipitor for lowering cholesterol, Prozac for depression, and anti-inflammatory drugs for tumor treatment with one common herbal remedy? It looks like turmeric can do all that and more. Here’s what greenmedinfo.com has to say on the subject of aspirin:

Aspirin (blood thinner): A 1986 in vitro and ex vivo study published in the journal Arzneimittelforschung found that curcumin has anti-platelet and prostacyclin modulating effects compared to aspirin, indicating it may have value in patients prone to vascular thrombosis and requiring anti-arthritis therapy.

Read the entire article for lots more drugs you might be able to replace with turmeric. If your doctor doesn’t approve, try to find a good Naturopathic doctor to advise you.

Big Pharma doesn’t like it when people turn to natural remedies, because it really cuts into their profits, but Nature has always held the answers to our ills. Before you jump on the prescription drug bandwagon, or even take over-the-counter drugs that are considered “safe,” please do yourself a favor and research natural options first. There is probably a much safer and maybe even more effective way to solve your problem.

• Start with a whole foods plant-based diet, recommended supplements, a little more exercise and sunshine, some fun activities, meaningful work or hobbies
• Next, look into homeopathy, acupuncture, flower remedies, EFT, herbal remedies, essential oils, yoga, meditation, and many other tried and true natural healing modalities

Doctors are wonderful in cases of injury or acute pain, but for long-term degenerative diseases most doctors will immediately suggest drugs and/or surgery. That is their training and most people don’t question it. But since medical treatments (even when correctly administered) are the 3rd leading cause of death in America (yes you read that right), it is in all of our best interest to avoid medical treatments whenever we can!
