Navigating the Produce Section

Do you know where your fruits and vegetables come from? As the CSA and Farmers Market season winds down we may find ourselves back at the supermarket where we can’t ask the farmer how the food was raised. Well, there is a simple way to tell and I’ll share the secret with you. Every item in the produce section has a PLU number. This is a 4- or 5-digit number usually located near the bar code or on a sticker stuck directly to the item. A 4-digit number (1022) means it is conventionally grown. A 5-digit number beginning with a 9 (91022) means it was organically grown. But beware of a 5-digit number beginning with an 8 (81022). These items contain GMOs or Genetically Modified Organisms. It is best to avoid these “frankenfood” items as there has been no research on the results they can have on our bodies and our health. Be extra wary at membership warehouses. As much as I love Costco, I have found they have their own system, so there is no way of knowing if their produce is genetically modified or not! Organic is best (9 is fine), conventional is OK, but GMO is to be avoided (hatin’ 8)!

Can Baking Soda Cure Cancer?
by Dr. Victoria Snelling

Cancer has surpassed heart disease as the number one killer in America and is still a mystery to medical professionals despite their arsenal of drugs, surgery and radiation. There must be a kinder, gentler way!

A friend sent a web site to me which discussed how an Italian oncologist is treating cancer, very successfully, with bicarbonate of soda. I’ll admit to being skeptical, but I was intrigued by what I read and wanted to know more. Could this be a breakthrough in our understanding and treatment of a condition that affects way too many of us these days?

Dr. Tullio Simoncini has a medical practice in Rome. He seemed to follow a fairly conventional approach in treating his cancer patients until he had quite an epiphany about a possible cause of, and treatment for, cancer. He now treats many forms of cancer, from breast cancer to brain tumors and seemingly everything in between. His new protocol doesn’t involve a new wonder drug or a new surgical procedure, but it makes use of bicarbonate of soda, better known as baking soda. Yes, the yellow box in your kitchen cabinet! Dr. Simoncini’s book is called “Cancer is a Fungus” and you can read more on his web site, available in English, and it’s listed at the end of this article.

Dr. Simoncini states “When facing the most pressing contemporary medical problem, cancer, the first thing to do is to admit that we still do not know its real cause. A fungus infection - that of the Candida species - could supply the explanation for why a tumor occurs, and it is in this direction that research should move in the attempt to solve the problem of cancer once and for all.”

As I looked over his site, I wanted to know many things: how much research has been done with this protocol, what is his cure rate and survival rate, is there anything toxic about this treatment and are there any side effects? I do have some answers to these questions and I’m cautiously optimistic that his treatment might someday spread to the good ole USA. Right now, it seems to be available only in Italy.

Dr. Simoncini found that psoriasis responded really well when he treated it as a fungus. He then used bicarbonate of soda to treat babies with oral thrush, which is caused by the fungus, Candida albicans. He wondered if cancer could be caused by a fungus. Fungi are interesting. They behave differently from any other living critter. They seem to be half animal and half plant, and can burrow deeply and cling tenaciously to the host tissue they are ingesting. They can change form and their reproductive cycle can make them very hard to destroy. But maybe we’ve just been using the wrong substance to treat it. Dr. Simoncini talks about the protocol of applying sodium bicarbonate to tumors and other cancerous tissue. He has determined the optimum treatment time and frequency, and the treatment isn’t harmful to surrounding tissue. I was struck by how gentle his protocol appears to be.

His theory of the cause of cancer inspired me to consider other cancer treatments, especially nutritional approaches, and what they have in common. I thought about his assertion that cancer is inherently linked to fungus, and that he has found Candida in the core of tumors. I also thought about that wonderful doctor from Jackson, Tennessee who educated the world about the effects of yeast, or Candida albicans, on our health and how to eliminate it.

The doctor from Tennessee was William Crook, MD. He practiced in Jackson for 40 years and died there in October of 2002. Dr. Crook wrote 14 books, and “The Yeast Connection” might be the most well known of them all. His book introduced the world to the effect of Candida albicans and taught us that Candida doesn’t just cause yeast infections. It can also be systemic, or dispersed all throughout the body, and can be responsible for a whole host of symptoms that can easily be misdiagnosed. The good news is that the treatment is a change of diet, and perhaps a few supplements in the short term. He really left his mark on medicine and nutrition. He also left his mark on my family, as well.

When I was very young, my sleepwalking really worried my Mom. The turning point came when, on a family vacation, she found me as I was just about to get into an elevator in the middle of the night. Who knows where I was going! She took me to see Dr. Crook, who was a practicing pediatric allergist. He recommended that I avoid some of the most common allergens, such as wheat and dairy, as well as sugar. In just a few weeks, my sleepwalking stopped, never to return. My Mom was thrilled! Many years later, while I was attending chiropractic college, my Mom was having symptoms that were not being relieved by other means. She saw Dr. Crook, who had just published his ground-breaking book about Candidiasis. My Mom followed his recommendations very strictly for about a year, and her health improved dramatically. She looked vibrant, was full of energy and appeared at least 10 years younger. And her pesky symptoms disappeared. My Mom is still very youthful and we’re both very thankful to Dr. Crook. I’ve been happy to make use of his wonderful information to help my patients for the past 25 years.

What’s common to Dr. Crook’s yeast-free diet and the diet that supports Dr. Simoncini’s bicarbonate of soda treatment? The avoidance of sugar, and other high-glycemic foods, is crucial to eliminate not just yeast, but also bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. These recommendations will also preserve a stable and healthy blood and tissue glucose level. Sugars lower the body’s pH level, making the body acidic. Without sugar and foods that quickly convert to sugar, the pH is normalized, and glands and organs are no longer working under constant stress. Foods that are quickly converted to sugar in the body have a high glycemic index, and include white flour products, white rice, other refined grains, white potatoes, corn and high fructose corn syrup, alcohol, fruit juices and, of course, sugar in any form. One easy way to improve your health and the health of your family is to read all the labels in your fridge and food pantry and throw away all the items containing high fructose corn syrup! If you are fighting off a virus, a yeast infection like Candidiasis, a fungus such as athlete’s foot or ringworm, or a bacterial infection, or yes, even cancer, please consider a sugar-free diet. Those organisms thrive on sugar and will consider you a most hospitable place to live. You will not completely get rid of an infection-of any kind-if you feed it its favorite food, no matter how many antibiotics, antiviral or antifungal drugs you take!

A diet rich in vegetables (with the exceptions listed above), whole fruits, moderate whole grains and moderate lean protein sources will keep the pH of the body balanced and will provide the nutrients needed to rebuild healthy body tissue. This type of balanced, whole food diet will assist the body in doing what it does best: eliminating toxins (including foreign invaders like bacteria, yeast, etc), replacing damaged cells and optimizing glandular function. Start with just one suggestion if you need to make changes more slowly. These recommendations will help you to improve your health and your vitality. You’ll start to feel really good, maybe for the first time in your life. The more suggestions you take to heart, the better your results will be. If you have chronic disease, a diagnosis of cancer, or if you suffer from recurrent infections of whatever type, the recommendations, especially with regard to sugar, are that much more important.

What can we expect as we make these healthy dietary changes and how will our bodies be different as the years go by? I think it’s never too late to recover your health and your vitality. Does this mean that my Candida-free Mom will never have to deal with a diagnosis of cancer? I’m optimistic, and I’m sure Dr. Crook would share that opinion.

I intend to keep up with Dr. Simoncini’s publications. If his approach is truly effective, no doubt it will come into wider use in Italy and then with the rest of Europe. I would love to see funding for well-thought out natural treatments for cancer. Perhaps we should think of pioneers such as this Italian oncologist when we’re considering making a contribution to cancer research.

Remededy Spotlight: Ambrosia

It’s ragweed season and people all over the country have got itchy, watery eyes; runny, sneezy noses; and sinus headaches galore! Ragweed (Ambrosia artemisifolia) is a problem from mid- to late summer into early fall or as late as December, depending on where you live. Windy weather spreads the pollen as far as several miles away. though the plant is so abundant, there is little need to travel so far for exposure! Generally, the threat of ragweed ends with the first hard frost, but until then, what to do about the itching, running and sneezing? Homeopathy to the rescue! Homeopathic Ambrosia art. is made from ragweed pollen and is especially helpful for those suffering from an allergy to ragweed. A low potency dose (30x or 30c) at regular intervals (1-2 times daily) will help to curb that allergic reaction so you can enjoy these beautiful early autumn days!
Ambrosia is not usually available in your local health food store. However, we do keep a supply in our office during Ragweed season. Contact us if you’d like a bottle! Call Sherry at 502-426-2033.

Natural Health Tip – Household Antiseptic for Flu Season

What My Sister Taught Me About Cancer
by Dr. Victoria Snelling
www.DrSnelling.com

I’m sitting here, looking out on a lovely sunny spring day and thinking about… cancer. I would imagine that all of us have been touched by cancer in some way, even if at a distance. We all probably know someone, friend, neighbor or relative, who has dealt with the dreaded disease. It’s certainly in the news often enough. Status or socioeconomic level is no protection from it. We often hear about celebrities battling cancer of one variety or another. Is cancer more prevalent, or is it just more publicized than in the past?

Until recently my experience with cancer had been from a bit of a distance. I always had some degree of isolation from it. Yes, I’d had a great uncle who dealt with lung cancer many years ago. And I’ve assisted patients with natural therapies so they could blend Homeopathy and nutrition with the allopathic cancer treatments they were having. But that distance and that isolation ended recently.
My sister had cancer. I consciously use the past tense. She HAD cancer and I fully believe she doesn’t have it now. She’s nearing the end of treatment and besides, I don’t want to give it any energy by speaking of “it” in the present tense.

Diane was diagnosed with uterine cancer a few months ago. It was found totally by happenstance. Her gynecologist decided to “just have one last look” during a procedure called a D&C and removed what was thought to be a very benign uterine cyst. These cysts aren’t uncommon and most often are benign. They often shrink on their own, or the body sloughs them off, or sometimes the gynecologist just decides to remove them if they are uncomfortable or if they are associated with non-period bleeding. This gynecologist decided to do just that, and was actually quite shocked when the pathology report showed an aggressively growing malignant tumor. Actually, we were all shocked.

I was sitting at my desk at work the day Diane called to tell me about her diagnosis. She had just heard the news herself. Her news had a very visceral effect on me, like the wind had been knocked out of me. At the same time it felt very unreal. She was crying. I was crying. Oddly enough, I knew she’d be fine. Some deeper part of me knew. But I was grieving the fact that she had to experience this, that she had to walk down this path in the first place, but I knew she’d be fine, maybe even better than before in many ways. In my shock and grief, that thought was actually a comfort to me.

I guess we all cope with difficult news in our own particular way. I prayed, I meditated, I visualized her as perfect, whole and complete. I sent out an email request to friends and family asking them to do the same, according to their own beliefs. And I also seriously delved into the literature and spoke to colleagues about what we know; I mean what we REALLY know, about cancer in its various forms and how to treat it. I know how the medical profession treats it. But I was looking for more than the allopathic slash/burn/poison methods. I wanted to know everything else. How can we treat this condition in a manner that respects the body/mind/spirit totality of us, in a holistic manner, that gives the healing role to the body itself? I was motivated, I was determined and I was just a little angry, too. I wanted these alternatives offered to everyone, in addition to the allopathic choices. Because this was affecting someone I love so deeply, my motivation was just as deep. Don’t misunderstand. I think we should always explore all of our options, allopathic and alternative. But Diane’s oncologist had the allopathic portion pretty well in hand, and I was determined to cover the rest.

I also thought about what I would do should I ever find myself linked to that same diagnosis. I’m not sure I’ve ever pondered that question before. I did find a sense of peace about it. I was comforted by the options I found and encouraged that I would not have to make a decision based on fear, or lack of information, or a sense of powerlessness. I’ll share just a little of what I’ve learned about supporting an immune system that is dealing with cancer at the end of this article. But I’ve learned much more than that.

I think I’ve always accepted that each of us has the right, and also the obligation, to choose for ourselves the treatment we want for any condition we’re dealing with. And I came to accept, at a much deeper level, my sister’s decision about the treatment she would be receiving for uterine cancer, surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Her decision was different from the one I would have made for myself. And that’s as it should be. I know in my heart she made the right decision for herself and she is doing extremely well now as her treatment is nearing an end. Her cancer is truly in the past tense! My sister HAD cancer. And that word just isn’t as scary as it used to be.

When we look back over our lives, we can all probably pinpoint those life changing events. Events that take us deeper into ourselves and cause us to connect with that place inside where transformation can more easily take place. I connect with a changed person now when I talk to Diane. My experience of her is that she’s more relaxed, happier, and much more present in the moment. Being more in present time, more of the time, I think she has fewer fears or anxieties. She’s talking about making a trip to Hawaii, a place she’s always wanted to visit, but would never consider due to a long standing fear of flying. She said “if I can conquer the Big C, I think I can fly to Hawaii!” Great news! (I want to go, too!)

Truly being in present time is an amazing thing. Most of us don’t spend nearly enough time there. And there is something sweet and precious about experiencing every moment of your life with focus and intention. The present seems very different when we are not worrying about the future or obsessing over the past. Being in the present moment brings timelessness to our experience. The present is expansive and peaceful and so very beautiful. There is great joy in small things. That feeling of groundedness allows us to really connect with others and occupy the role of observer at the same time. It has been wonderful for me to be able to deal with the decisions, chores and obligations of Life on Planet Earth and yet be apart from the dramas and petty worries that I and those around me could create. It’s peaceful here, and I like it. And I have my sister to thank for the inspiration and opportunity to practice being in this space. As she walked along the path of her healing, she inspired me to walk beside her. I continue to learn so much and I am grateful.

The subject of natural healing is so vast, and to be truly holistic, we must consider the body/mind/spirit as we heal. We can look at different features of a good holistic plan in the next several articles, but for now, how can we make a start? What are the first things I’d do to support my immune system? These things would apply to many conditions, not just cancer. And they would equally apply to the maintenance of health, and so they are appropriate for all of us, all of the time. These can be easy to implement, and you can feel good about the ones that are already second nature to you!

If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, or if a close loved one has recently been diagnosed, consider giving some tender loving care to your emotional needs. We love our “good” emotions, those highly desirable feel-good feelings. We may not always like those undesirable feelings. We all have a wide range of feelings, but we just don’t always know what to do with them! If you can identify your emotions and express them in a healthy way, you’re way ahead of many of us. Remember that you can reach out for help, through counseling, a support group, a spiritual group or maybe even a wise friend. Think of emotion as “energy in motion”, and strive to keep it that way. Emotions do need to flow. They can be very detrimental if locked up inside and not expressed. If you’d like to discover a technique that you can use that is free and easy to learn, go to www.emofree.com for information on using Emotional Freedom Technique. It’s amazing how soothing this blend of acupressure and Neurolinguistic programming can be. It’s easy to do and simple to learn. I have a 6 year old patient who learned the technique from his Mom. (What a lucky guy to learn a technique like this at so young an age!) There are other techniques that are useful, too, including One Brain Defusion technique and Rapid Eye Movement Desensitization technique, among others. Explore what appeals to you. Some other ideas:
1. Keep (or find) your sense of humor. Humor is important for healing. Do you remember Norman Cousins who wrote “Anatomy of Illness”? He literally used humor to heal himself of a life threatening disease. Humor will lower your stress level, lower your high blood pressure, raise your spirits and balance your chakras- all with one good belly laugh!

2. Again, communicate your feelings, the fun ones and the not so fun ones. Use “I” statements if you need to communicate an uncomfortable feeling to someone. “I feel anxious when you don’t tell me you’ll be home late” feels much different, and is better received, than “You make me so nervous when you don’t call me when you’ll be home late!” Strive to start a dialogue, not start an argument!

3. Don’t stuff your feelings. Many professionals agree that suppressed anger can quickly become depression. Just think: when you express your feelings in a healthy manner, those uncomfortable feelings are leaving your mind/body. When you bury them, they don’t go away; they just sit there wreaking havoc. Don’t give them that kind of power!

4. Say “I love you” to those you love. For some of us, this is easy, and for some, this will be the hard one. If you feel it, give yourself permission to say it! We really don’t know how many days we have here on earth, so if you feel it, say it!

5. If you’re holding a grudge, or if you have a feeling of unforgiveness regarding someone, let it go. This is quite a burden and if you’ve been carrying it for a long time, you may not know just how heavy it really is. This is truly liberating if you’ll just do this one thing. It’ll change your life. Forgiveness isn’t about the person who “did us wrong”. Forgiveness never excuses the negative or abusive things in our pasts, and it doesn’t forgive the abuser. There just are no excuses for some things. But if you’re holding on to a past hurt, you are giving your power away to someone and some event in the past. Forgiveness is for the benefit of the forgiver. Let me say that again: forgiveness is for the benefit of YOU and forgiveness can set you free! Let go of the past and move on to a better future. Here are 2 of my favorite authors and their books that are very pertinent to this topic: Colin Tipping’s “Radical Forgiveness” and Byron Katie’s “Loving What Is.” Both are powerful and both are definitely life changing.

6. Are you procrastinating? I don’t mean are you putting off cleaning the basement or filing your taxes. I mean is there something, or several things, that you’ve always wanted to do, but you’ve put off for a better time? Put off until the kids graduated from high school, put off until you finally got a raise, put off until you lost those 20 pounds, until, until, until when? Please don’t wait until you wake up one day and say to yourself “I would’ve, should’ve, could’ve”. We can’t change the past, but we can certainly change now, and then we’ll change the future as a result. This moment, right now, is what you have control over. Don’t live with regrets! Is this thing still important to you? Make it a priority, right now. Just make a start and take one small step every day toward your goal. You’ll get there, without a doubt. One that note, I saw the movie “The Bucket List” (with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman) right before my sister’s cancer diagnosis. I haven’t yet told her how much I enjoyed the movie or how it touched me. But I’m telling you now- go and see that movie. It is inspiring and thought provoking. Yes, you can see it and just experience the comedic brilliance of the main characters and just have a “surface” experience of the movie. But if you look a little deeper and see the richness of the message, you can be inspired to create your own “Bucket List”. I think I’ll have to add that trip to Hawaii to my list!

6. If you really want to feel good fast, here’s a guaranteed way to make yourself smile. Do something for someone else. Any one else. And preferably, do it anonymously. Do it in secret. You’re not looking for accolades here, you’re looking for a way to do a kindness for someone else and then allow yourself to experience the glow that brings. Start small and see how many creative ideas you have of “paying it forward.” Just remember, the Law of Karma will bring you good things in return!

Homeopathic Tip – Minor Burn Treatment
I was pulling a cookie sheet out of the oven the other day. There were a lot of people in the kitchen (it was an afternoon party) and I was trying not to bump anyone. I didn’t give myself enough room and managed to brush that 400° cookie sheet against my arm. OUCH! I immediately ran to the sink and ran warm water over the burn. That’s right warm water. An MD nearby gasped and told me I was “causing further damage to the tissue.” I happen to know that warm – not hot – water on a burn is homeopathic. I have done this several times (I’m rather clumsy sometimes) and what I have found is that soon afterward, the burn doesn’t hurt. At all. I then covered it with Calendula ointment to speed the healing. So far (3 days later) it’s healing quite well and not really calling attention to itself.

Healthy Eats - Community Supported Agriculture
I've really been enjoying fresh vine ripe tomatoes this spring. My vines at home aren't yet ripe. In fact they're not even big enough for fried green tomatoes. But my CSA (community supported agriculture) supplied enough organic veggies to fill my crispers last Thursday and there's more to come this week. In fact, every Thursday from now until October, maybe even November, I'll receive my share from organic farmers, Ralph and Kathy Packard of Misty Meadows Farm. CSA's are a great way to buy your veggies, herbs and fruit locally and to be assured that they're organic. My weekly bounty varies each week with what is in season and what is ready to be picked. They also have a great assortment of organic meats and eggs. The number of Farmer's Markets and CSA's is exploding in this area. Our local Courier-Journal has a link that will tell you where to find your nearest farmer's market. And Local Harvest will direct you to CSA's and farmer's markets all over the country. For information about other sources of organic foods and articles on why local and organic is best, check one of my favorite web sites: The Weston A. Price Foundation. This site will also lead you to local buying groups, or co-ops, who are countering the high cost of organic food items by buying together and in bulk. It's wonderful to know where your food comes from.
