Dr. Zach Bush MD joined us on today’s show to talk about gut health, cancer, our microbiome and how we can become more connected in order to not just improve our health but improve our lives.

Dr. Zach Bush is the founder and CEO of IonBiome which has a number of products definitely worth checking into.

We started off talking about cancer, apoptosis and how vitamin A can help cancer cells enter into apoptosis so that they don’t continue to replicate.

Then we talked about cancer and how cancer is the great disease of our time. Cancer rates have risen so high in the last 100 years that it almost defies logic.

The “war on cancer” has been a monumental failure and it’s time we stop allowing the drug companies to dominate media so people are no longer programmed to think that chemotherapy, radiation and surgery are the only answers to this most dreaded disease.

Later on in the show we talked about bacteria, gut health and the role that the microbiome plays in our health and our lives.

Instead of killing bacteria and fearing germs, we need to work with these organisms in order to improve our health. Again a lack of connection is to blame for our war against bacteria whether it’s through media or just antibiotics.

Dr. Zach Bush was a wonderful guest who provides a lot of cutting edge research and knowledge into deep aspects of health. I hope you enjoyed this radio show interview with him.

If you did, please share this podcast with your friends! 🙂

Dr. Zach Bush doesn't keep his ideas in a neat ideological box. Instead, paints a sweeping picture of our interconnected world — one in which topics such as regenerative farming, bio-engineering, government policy, and the human microbiome are all intimately linked. And while he candidly points out missteps at many levels, he also offers a hopeful vision for humanity.

Podcast with Jeff Krasno

By Cynthia Olsen

I have known about Essiac for many, many years.  I actually attended a workshop with an Ojibway elder who talked about their medicines that had been passed down from generation to generation and how they cured and alleviated symptoms of numerous illnesses.  Part two of this workshop was to make our own brew.  Little did I know, most of the ingredients were similar to those contained in Essiac.  I am now taking Essiac on a daily basis as part of my cancer regime.

This book gives a complete account of the recipe, the doses and of Essiac's uses.  The book tells of experience of patients who have attained relief or regeneration from this remarkable herbal preparation.

History of Essiac:

In 1922, Rene Caisse, a Canadian nurse, made a discover that would change her life and the course of cancer therapy.  Caisse received the formula for an herbal remedy through a patient who had been successfully treated for breast cancer by a Native American medicine man.  With this remedy, which she called Essiac, Caisse would go on to treat thousands of patients at an incredible recovery rate of 80%.

The surprising new science of uric acid—the key to losing weight, controlling blood sugar and achieving extraordinary health

by David Perlmutter, M.D.

What do obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, fatty liver disease, hypertension, cardiovascular disease; stroke, neurological disorders and premature death have in common? All can be stoked by high uric acid levels.

Today’s scientific literature is bursting with evidence that elevated uric acid levels lie at the root of many pervasive health conditions, but mainstream medicine for the most part remains unaware of this connection. This is especially alarming because many people don't know they are suffering from sky-high levels, putting them at risk for developing or exacerbating potentially life-threatening illnesses.

David Perlmutter offers a blend of science and practical advice, Drop Acid exposes the deadly truth about uric acid and teaches invaluable strategies to manage its levels, including:

• Simple dietary edits focused on reducing fructose and foods high in 'purines' that can raise uric acid.
• Natural hacks that lower levels such as consuming tart cherries, vitamin C, quercetin, and coffee.
• Identifying common pharmaceuticals that threaten to increase uric acid.
• Lifestyle interventions, like restorative sleep and exercise.
• How to easily test your uric acid levels at home - a test routinely performed in your doctor's office during regular check-ups but typically ignored.

The author introduces his ground-breaking 'LUV' (Lower Uric Values) diet, 35 delicious recipes, self-assessment quizzes and a 21 day program for dropping levels, Drop Acid empowers readers with the information they need to address this hidden danger and live longer, leaner and healthier lives.

After taking a quick look at Eli Zeke’s book, P.E.M.F. Therapy 101book; I wanted to know more about PEMF technology and therapy.  I have been seeing a number of alternative health practitioners over the years that all used these devices and each one had a different device, and each one praised the benefits of PEMF therapy.  Now that I was being faced with cancer and a spinal cord injury, I had to get serious, very serious about my health and bring certain practices into my home.  PEMF was one of those therapies that was in my face.  As a person who goes digging for the facts, I needed to know more.

This book answered my questions and more.  I know understand PEMF on a much broader scale and in reading this book, I have now taken measures to improve not only my body, but my living space and how I think about invisible energies and frequencies.

Here is what the publishers say about this book:

You probably know that food, water, sunlight, and oxygen are required for life, but there is a fifth element of health that is equally vital and often overlooked: The Earth’s magnetic field and its corresponding PEMFs (pulsed electromagnetic fields).

The two main components of Earth’s PEMFs, the Schumann and Geomagnetic frequencies, are so essential that NASA and the Russian space program equip their spacecrafts with devices that replicate these frequencies.

These frequencies are absolutely necessary for the human body’s circadian rhythms, energy production, and even keeping the body free from pain. But there is a big problem on planet earth right now, rather, a twofold problem, as to why we are no longer getting these life-nurturing energies of the earth. In this book we’ll explore the current problem and how the new science of PEMF therapy (a branch of energy medicine), based on modern quantum field theory, is the solution to this problem, with the many benefits listed below:

• eliminate pain and inflammation naturally

• get deep, rejuvenating sleep

• increase your energy and vitality

• feel younger, stronger, and more flexible

• keep your bones strong and healthy

• help your body with healing and regeneration

• improve circulation and heart health

• plus many more benefits

The Diet and Lifestyle Guide—A Diet and Lifestyle Blueprint
by Brenda Davis, RD

This book is not just for anyone with diabetes.  It contains all the perfect recommendations for anyone with cancer, heart disease, or any other chronic illness.  The following is taken from the back of the book:

Research shows that following a plant-based diet not only can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes but, can also reverse the disease.  Brenda Davis (Registered Dietician) deciphers the latest scientific evidence and explains why and how a whole-food, plant0focused diet can benefit anyone with this devastating disease.

Well-designed plant-based diets work because they address the root causes of diabetes.  They maximize powerful protective dietary components that are concentrated in plant foods and work together to ease inflammation and oxidative stress, stabilize blood glucose levels, enhance gut micro flora, and keep blood pressure and cholesterol in check.  At the same time, plant-based diets minimize the harmful components concentrated in highly processed foods and animal products.

Lifestyle adjustments in conjunction with improved dietary habits are essential for achieving and maintaining diabetes health goals.  Stress management, exercise, adequate sleep, social activity, and a healthy weight all contribute to a balanced trinity of physical fitness, mental clarity, and emotional stability.

“Kick Diabetes Essentials is a gold mind for people with diabetes.  It is packed with solid scientific evidence, practical guidelines, and carefully constructed recipes.  Brenda Davis is my favourite go-to-dietitian.  You can rest assured that you are in very capable hands.” — Michael Greger, MS (How Not To Die)

"The thoughts we think and the words we speak create our experiences."

by Louise Hay

I have had this book in my library since it was first published in 1999 and I have referred to it many, many times over the years for inspiration, insights and motivation.

Louise's key message in this powerful book is: "If we are willing to do the mental work, almost anything can be healed."  She explains how limiting beliefs and ideas are often the cause of illness.  She shows how you can change your thinking—and improve the quality of your life!

Louise Hay nailed it in this book.  She has covered everything in beautifully coloured and illustrated pages.  Chapter 15 is list taken from her book “Heal Your Body” which is a great quick check in on the body part that is causing pain, grief, irritation.  The insights guide the reader to delve deeper into their own story to help unravel the mystery of what the body is saying.

Louise explains how our beliefs, ideals and ideas are often the cause of our illness.  This book shows you how to change your thinking and improve the quality of your life.

An absolute must for anyone wanting to bring consciousness into their way of life.  Thank you Louise for this book, an amazing legacy.

How People Prevail in the Face of Illness

by Jerome Groopman, M.D.

The author is a doctor of oncology/hematology with over 30 years experience.  He is definitely well versed in mainstream cancer treatments (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation) and maintenance support drugs.  He also has extensive experience and knowledge related to research which he goes into extensively throughout the book to validate is conclusions.

Throughout this book, the author gives references to numerous case studies as he explores why some people survive serious illnesses which lead him to study the deeper concepts of “hope” and define false hope vs. true hope.  He connects with other researchers throughout the book.

Building on his own personal experience with a debilitating illness, he comes closer to understanding the meaning of “hope” and relates it back to many of his case studies.

In his own words: “Hope…is vital to our lives as the very oxygen that we breathe. … The question—why some people find and hold on to hope while others do not—was what moved me to write this book.”

I would recommend this book for all medical professionals as it will help one to understand how to talk and treat their patients incorporating the many languages of “hope”.

How to Relieve Foot Numbness, Tingling, Burning and Cramping without Drugs or Surgery

In this book, Dr. Philip Straw outlines how to relieve foot numbness, tingling, burning, and cramping without drugs or surgery.

Years of experience he points out the many reasons for a patient to present with symptoms of neuropathy.  He lists the symptoms and causes of neuropathy especially in the feet with a focus on cause originating mostly from diabetes, poor diet and lifestyle habits.

Alternative Therapies that  Treat and Prevent Cancer

by Dr. Mark Stengler & Dr. Paul Anderson

This is a wonderful reference book for anyone looking for recommendations for supplements and alternative treatments that will either compliment or contradict cancer treatments.  There is very little reference to the various types of cancers and specific cancer treatments.  It focuses on basic mainstream chemotherapy treatments using as it calls “toxic” in many places throughout the book.

This book goes into each supplement in detail and how it compliments cancer treatments, side effects and long term use.  Very informative.  The index at the back of the book is very helpful for quick research.

The book mentions a number of alternative treatments, but gives a very basic overview of each one; however, it does outline which of these treatments work best for specific cancers, which I found helpful.
