Re: to people with sick kidneys, please read
faith I am sorry it has taken me so long to respond..I actually wrote a long thing but somehow my finger nicked some key and it was all lost to cyberspace. I am so upset I gave up and meant to write it in the next few days and something happened and I completely forgot. Now I can't remember what I said so let me start from scratch.
I think it is pretty astute of you to notice the doctor's financial interest in all this.
Dr
Richard Schulze said he does "herbal espionage" and he sneaked into a meeting given by a director of a hospital attended by other directors of hospital.
I think two good things is she is not yet on dialysis and she does have 16% function still. Because her kidneys are not working it is harder to get toxins out therefore, remember to use the other elimination organs..the bowels, liver/gall bladder, a lung cleanse and the skin through diaphoretic (sweat producing teas) and hot saunas and skin brushing. I also would do the thing where she stands in water up to her neck an hour or more daily or have her hang on the side of the pool with toes pointed down and hold her hands on the edge. this helps the sodium balance and the water pressure works it is said like a modern day dialysis machine. get her a gym membership or y membership[ at a place with hot sauna, swimming pool and maybe a sauna or steam room and even start her lightly exercising building up[ to more each day..
He said when the doctor started his speech, the first thing he said was "hospitals are like W____e houses (of ill repute, in order to make money you have to keep the beds full" so this gives us some insight into their minds.
Also drug companies routinely fold medical journals if they dare to publish any studies or articles on safe, non-toxic treatments like herbs so doctors can't even read this stuff as they are so busy they rarely read outside the medical library according to Dr Lorraine Day who in her tape "cancer doesn't scare me anymore" talked about this and "follow the money" She cured herself of advanced
Breast Cancer by using alternative health and when she talked about it, she was ostracized by her hospital/doctor colleagues.
Drug companies also have been caught lying on their testing and they now market to the public directly to make more money and give doctors perks when they recommend their drug.
It isn't just the allopaths either. Many herb companies spend more time and money on a attractive label than on the contents inside. They do not soak their tinctures long enough to extract the potent chemicals and they use little herbs and a lot of menstrum. Those selling capsules don't tell you they are rarely absorbed and they often use cheap, third world herbs that may be irradiated, showered with things like ddt and pcb that are outlawed here etc.
For best results with herbs, use organic or wildcrafted tinctures not capsules from a company that soaks herbs long enough, uses organic, using a lot of herbs such as herbpharm or herbdoc.com (schulzes)
Even though home dialysis allows kidney patients to feel much better and takes the fluids out slower and is done while you sleep with less disruption to your lives, most patients are not even told about it as they get a lot of money from a dialysis patient going there 3 times a week.
The doctors drugs actually CAUSED my mom's kidney damage which lead to dialysis and the suffering of nine heart attacks in one year. they knew this could happen but no one had even bothered to tell her so she could make an informed decision. It was caused by motrin --this is what she was told..
These drugs have a lot of side effects..sometimes you can find herbal substitutes for the problem the drug is supposed to help and wean down off some of them.
Doctor Schulze did work with patients in their 80s..he recognizes they may not be as hardy as a young person but he does tell us that we are all much tougher than we realize.
I will post a separate response in the 30 steps which is now on page two about helping the creatinine level
I would put her on the incurables program and the 30 steps if it were me. Because we know people worst than her on dialysis with zero function in their kidneys were healed. Some were in the 30 steps in the end 15 steps of so, I put a link to the book where he said this or email me and ask for it. He said they did
juicing and juices do have potassium..plus look in the creatinine post I will follow up with how that one lady cured herself with an all fruit diet..certainly had potassium.
it seems one of the reasons doctors say no potassium is the body diminishes in the ability to remove potassium from the blood when the kidneys aren't working allowing it to build up. Still one must remember the two outlooks --allopathic and naturopathic are completely different. doctors don';t even think diet has anything to do with illness for the most part and that herbs and vitamins give you "expensive urine"..they are complete unbelievers.
I challenge you to go to goggle and watch Dr john Christopher videos..I was listening to tape 3 yesterday and it just astounded me the power of herbs. Ask who is curing the incurables...doctors? no they say there is no hope. Someone like Christopher, schulze, Jensen, etc thy had real patients and they all cured the incurables.
Schulze tells us to listen to our gut..he says it will not mislead us and it seems your gut is not telling you to go the way of the doctors so if you are going naturally, then go all out..don't dabble. Incurables and as many as the 30 steps as you can cram into a day.
get a compound with both codyceps and ascarius..I had a link in my step 2 or 3 on this.
//www.curezone.org/forums/am.asp?i=1224263&s=1#i1
do not just use the powder as it needs to be a special kind and that link is one of those.
deep breathing and exercises good..one of Dr jensen's books has a lot of great breathing exercises. If you email me I will try to find the title of the book that has these. Also do yoga breathing..two breathes in to one out. Be sure to put her hand on her stomach and chest when deep breathing to make sure she is doing it right ..it is like when you breathe in your stomach goes out not in and when you breath out the stomach goes out and not in...kind of the opposites of the way most of us breath naturally..it takes a little practice..do these outside if possible..
skin brushing good and hot/cold showers but she need the whole incurables with the steps which is for her specific disease. Also with high blood pressure, put her on fish oil and raw garlic, cayenne and ginger tincture as this dissolves plague on arteries and this widens them reducing the blood pressure. The incurables works for all diseases including blood pressure so it should help the other things she is taken the drugs for..one cannot emphasize the importance of doing it all together and diet and taking herbs for your select problems in organic tincture form
i feel schulze's superfood is better than the vitamin supplements you have her on
I am not sure about the vitamin a but I think there is a definite difference between food sources of vitamin a and supplement and maybe even natural sources used are ok get it versus synthetic sources. Superfood has all the vitamins and minerals and is very absorbable.
I was taking water aerobics and here they have a seniors class but I was thinking when we were jumping up and down that this was similar to a mini trampoline but easier on the joints and a mini tram helps the joints so if she goes into the water up to the neck have her do some jumping and hopping and leg lifts and stuff and it may well help the lymph system get moving.
I am not sure about the diuretics but I have listed herbal ones and several are ones schultz puts in his kidney formulas so they must be safe..maybe it is just the drug ones that she should avoid..but do take parsley root and take dandelion leaves and root in all their forms (juice/tea/tincture/food).
if she is going to eat meat, Dr Christopher said to eat free range, organic chicken once a week and fish (wild caught) about once a week...do not eat farm raised fish (some canned is ok) and do not eat conventional meats, poultry or dairy/eggs...just organic grass fed free range types.
You must remember, faith, I am not a doctor..just a person who has read a lot on alternative health and who feels she was lead to this info to help others.
I was afraid..I held back with my mom..I sometimes let things the doctors said hold me back..I worried the toxins would break loose too fast and she would be overwhelmed with the toxins that could not get out..(she would not have done it anyhow but I feel this was in error).
I let fear hold back the intensity...looking back, if I could have gotten her to do this better, I would have done the incurables and other stuff while her kidneys were better or at the level of your moms.
she has a lot going for her.;..an informed searching daughter who loves her, faith in god, determination to do all the things you have started her on..this is all great..just push it more..do the incurables..study and restudy it and watch the videos together a few things..read the manual..go over and over the steps.make lists, ,make schedules leave nothing out.
I would go personally straight to juice fasting if it was me but that is up to you..I do not want to hurt your mom..I am not schulze to know every thing and about any modifications. I tried on three occasions to get this info form him but was unsuccessful...thus I can only refer you to the fact that he said it rebuilt the kidneys and they did the incurables so I feel that is what I would do and I would do all the steps too.
Since she is very ill and close to dialysis..there is no time to waste..order all his incurables stuff now and get her on juice fasting..this is what schulze said he always did when there was no time to waste and when death seemed imminent.
This would be fresh veggie and fruit juice, the garlic (at least three cloves, all herbs and supplements and activities and routines, the potassium broth or other veggie broth is frighteningly (clear), herb teas and steam distilled or reverse osmosis water for at least 30 days or more. If you want, you could stop her and then do a few weeks with just raw foods and then juice fasting again. I would say no meats, dairy, eggs for now..just a vegan diet..lots of raw foods (sprouted ..get the book dining in the raw for many great raw foods and sprouted grains and seeds etc recipes. by Rita Romano
Pray about it and decide if you will go with man's aid or god's nutrition and herbs but remember many foods we think are healthy actually aren't due to what farmers and food manufacturers do to them
I know it is hard to know what to do but I think the fact your mom is willing to do these things you said at her age is a great sign and that you are a thinker.
Remember many, many people who schulze and christopher worked with were scared by their doctors and told they were seeing quacks and told they would die..some did die but many, many against all odds were healed..also see what herballegacy.com says about it..I put this in the 30 steps.
God bless you and your dear mother and I am so sorry I did not answer this sooner.
