Liver, Iron Overload and Constipation

Hi Lorene!
As you know I have been given the run around of being diagnosed with lymphoma or leukemia, or excessive iron overload in my liver, heart,causing me lots of apprehension.

So I had an MRI a week ago. My Dr called today and said there is now only a trace of iron overload and to get on with my life!!!!   Yeh, good thing I am not a fretful person.

I have religiously taken LIV-C and I KNOW that’s what has strengthened my liver. I am glad I have some herbal knowledge because without that where would I be headed to?
So that’s my testimonial!!! Only thing is those herbs constipate me so I occasionally depend on LBS. Gotta keep the system going.
Hugs, S. H.

Lorene’s comments:

Thanks for sharing this success !  It helps others understand herbs really DO work to heal, not just mediate symptoms as drugs are designed to do. Having medical tests as proof is a good thing.
LIV_C is an amazing Chinese liver formula for excess (yang) liver, so very likely why it helped balance your iron levels.
And I wouldn’t worry about taking LBS – ( Lower Bowel Support). This formula contains good liver herbs  too, which I am sure you know, but reminders never hurt….
The other important factor to remember with herbal laxatives is that they tone the bowel, so your own peristalsis improves.  So the longer you use them, the less you need. Exactly the opposite of chemicals ones, which tend to create dependency

Gall Bladder Flush

Why do a gall bladder flush?

Gall Bladder FlushCleansing the liver of gallstones by doing a gall bladder flush can dramatically improve digestion, which one of the  basics of health.

As the liver has more than 500 known functions, many people will notice lessening of allergies, bloating, pain,  increase in energy, hormonal and mood balancing, better sleep and other overall health improvements

The liver makes one or more quarts of bile per day, which is used to emulsify or break down fats for easier digestion.

Bile also carries cholesterol and other fats into the colon and helps to lubricate this organ for effective elimination.

In cases of chronic constipation…

bile is reabsorbed and recycled. Each time it is recycled it becomes a little less effective and a little more toxic. This is one reason that adding a bulk fibre to the diet (such as Psyllium Hulls Combo) ensures proper elimination and is  beneficial for lowering cholesterol levels.

There are different theories as to why gallstones form, but it is known that formation begins in the liver and can be related to diet, cholesterol crystals, calcification, uric acid, bacteria, and/ or parasites.

Gallstone symptoms

Symptoms of gallstone formation can range from general poor health to severe pain, and may include, nausea, bloating, constipation, or discomfort after eating fatty  food.

Gallstones often lodge in the liver ducts and are not revealed on ultrasound tests. Only when they become stored in the gall bladder and have somewhat calcified will they show up. This explains why medical diagnosis sometimes  misses the mark, until it is too late and surgery is recommended.

The Gall Bladder Flush

Although not the most pleasant thing to do, it is a good health preventative measure to perform a gall bladder flush yearly and can prevent surgery. Most people experience an increased sense of well being after this flush. This cleansing.can give dramatic results. After just the first cleanse,  pains, allergies and arthritis may  all disappear.

There are several variations of this cleanse; all are personal variations on the original cleanse from Austria. 40 years since my first cleanse, this is one version I have found to be very effective. 

The Gall Bladder Flush Program

2-3 wks. before cleanse: Take 2-3 LIV-C/day. One bottle (10-15 days) if your health is generally good, 2 bottles if you experience chronic challenges. Other options are LIV-A or LIV-J  (4-6/day). All three are herbal combinations that nutritionally support the liver and gall bladder. If you have confirmed or suspected stones, also take 6-9 Hydrangea/day, which helps dissolve stones.

1-3 days before cleanse: Fast on organic, unfiltered apple juice. If you cannot fast, drink at least 1 quart  per day. The day of flush, drink only apple juice from noon on. Malic acid in apple juice is excellent for dissolving stagnant bile accumulated in the liver. 

Afternoon/Evening of cleanse: Dissolve 4 T. Epsom salt (internal, not bath Epsom salt) in 3 cups water; refrigerate. Drink 3/4 cup of  this mixture at 5 pm, repeat at 8 pm.

This will relax organs, open bile ducts, balance calcium and act as a  laxative. This may help you to evacuate before the treatment.

Before bed, no later than 10 pm. Get ready for bed, then drink, within 5-15 minutes:

4-8 oz. cup virgin olive oil 

4-8 oz. fresh  lemon juice

6 oz. real Coca Cola* (not diet)

Mix all 3 together or just mix juice & oil and use the Coke as a chaser. You can sip through a straw. You can rub Peppermint Oil in the mouth after to cut the oil and prevent nausea.

*Coke seems like an unusual addition, but the strong acid  helps break down stones for passage. We do not recommend Coke other than for this cleanse.

Go to sleep, lying on your right side.

In the morning, upon arising: drink 3/4 cup of Epsom salt mixture . Finish the last 3/4 cup 2-3 hours later. You will have one or several good bowel movements anywhere from 1-8 hours afterwards. Check the toilet, you may find stones that vary in size and color from green, tan, orange or black.

They freeze quite well, should you choose to “show and tell”.

In lieu of making Epsom salt mixture, you can buy bottled  Magnesium Citrate at a pharmacy. Herbal Laxatives, such as LBS II can also be used.

You may repeat cleanse at two week intervals.

Contact the author for assistance in ordering any health supplements at discounted price.

Follow Daily Regime for healthy diet to avoid re-creating the problem.

Caution: Not recommended if you have an allergy to lemon juice or olive oil. Some proponents feel that a parasite and kidney cleanse  be performed before this flush. In cases of serious health challenges contact a qualified natural health consultant before any major cleansing.

More information on gallstones from Chinese Traditional Medicine.

Gallstones in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

In TCM, gallstones and kidney stones are said to form because of “stagnation”. Cleansing the liver and gallbladder helps resolve stagnation.

While this may sound rather unscientific, this is the language of a healing method which has proven itself for 5,000 years. In modern scientific language, one might express the same concept by saying when gallbladder bile isn’t flowing well or urine isn’t flowing well, it becomes concentrated, which causes calcium salts or cholesterols to crystallize out of solution and form stones (gallstones or kidney stones).

Based on the TCM gallbladder “meridians” (see Figure at right), gallstones may be Gallbladder Meridianalso associated with headaches, shoulder and neck pain.

According to TCM, when gallstones are present, the weak gallbladder makes energy flow along the meridians sluggish, which results in a tense and tight feeling. If blood circulation becomes so poor that the blood flow becomes stagnant, pain is the result.

In TCM, gallstones are also said to weaken the spleen, because nerves on the spleen and gallbladder are connected to each other. TCM also ties gallstones to sleep problems, dizziness, bad taste in the mouth, vomiting of bile, pain in the flanks, and even psychological problems such as anger and depression, insomnia, and nightmares.

Women are much more likely than men to develop gallstones, perhaps due to pregnancy and childbirth. Gallstones do not only develop in people who are obese or have a high fat diet.

Congested liver can cause sleep problems. Not only  difficulty falling asleep, but waking up several times every night.  As liver becomes healthier, sleep  should improve.

Detox Basics Testimony

This testimony was submitted August 10th, via another NSP Associate who works with us concerning Detox Basics (contact the author)

I’ve attached a small summary of how Detox Basics is improving my life.  If you want you can send it on to Lorene. CD

I began using this product on August 3rd and here is my experience in one week:

  • More energy
  • Joint and muscle pain virtually gone
  • sleeping better
  • clearer mind
  • calmer
  • acid reflux and liver pain gone
  • cravings under control

OTC (Over the counter ) drugs

  • I have been taking 1 to 2 gravol tablets for over 25 years at bedtime to sleep and no longer need that
  • Was taking minimum 2-3 extra strength Tylenol daily for back and foot pain, no longer have the pain so don’t need the Tylenol
  • Was taking 3 “Recovery” tablets daily to try and ease pain; not needed now
  • stopped taking daily laxative that I needed because of all the OTC drugs I was consuming

I have also stopped drinking alcohol because of this program, as well as diet pop and am limiting my intake of sweets and fatty food. That probably helps too. I don’t take any prescription drugs.

Thanks S.H. for suggesting this great product for me, it may have saved my life!

Ingredients on the Detox Basics (contact the author)30 day cleanse are discussed in the article: Healthy Microbiome and Detox for Health.

Healthy MicroBiome and Detox for Health

Recently there has been considerable research relating to the critical importance of having a healthy microbiome. In simple terms, that means having healthy intestinal bacteria. This is not news to those of us in the natural health field, but more importance is now being attributed to probiotics, even in the allopathic medical field. One reason for this long overdue recognition, is outbreaks in hospitals and senior complexes of serious conditions such as Clostridium difficile infections (CDI). This disease been increasing in the last 30 years, primarily due to increased antibiotic and chemotherapy use.

The medical profession continues to use antibiotics to treat the condition, although as far back as 2006, I read a report by a Quebec hospital having decreased the incidence of CDI by 90% by merely giving all patients a probiotic supplement daily. I cannot recall the dollar savings, but obviously they were HUGE, as on average, a CDI infection increases a patient’s hospital stay by 6 days!  Unfortunately, but not surprisingly,  as probiotics do not offer the exorbitant mark-up and profit margin as drugs, there has been ‘inadequate studies’ to support the evidence to have this become mainstream.

Many research dollars are being spent on faecal transplant studies and trials for severe CDI with promising results. In my opinion, effective probiotics such as NutriBiome Bacillus Coagulans is both more cost effective and considerably more appealing. We need to simplify, not complicate our health – KIS!

Those who DO care about their health are reaping the benefits.

Dr, Jay Vandenheuval, PhD, ND, presented an excellent webinar which covered the basics for 2 new products:  NutriBiome Bacillus Coagulans, as well as Detox Basics (contact the author) , a 30 day kit for whole body cleansing. Should any reader wish to view this webinar, please contact the author, who will gladly share it. Health is about education, so you can take better control of your own health!

 

 

NutriBiome Bacillus Coagulans…

is a probiotic strain designed to reset and quickly replenish the natural biome. It works very quickly for food poisoning, diarrhea, parasitic infestation, and toxic overload from any environmental source. Bacillus coagulans is  naturally heat-stable, so no refrigeration required. This is an excellent feature for travellers. It  readily withstands the stomach’s acidic environment, thereby providing better targeted support to the intestine and maintaining balance in the microbiome.

NutriBiome Bacillus coagulans  contains (MTCC 5856) 1 billion cfu (70 mg), as well as Inulin, a FOS (Fructooligosaccharide), which is a prebiotic to stimulate the growth of nonpathogenic intestinal microflora.

 

Detox Basics Kit…

combines Bacillus coagulans with several important formulas to provide a comprehensive, 30-day detox program. It has been designed to help support the function of digestive system, colon, liver, kidneys, all our organs involved in detoxification and filtration.

The liver aids in the digestive process by secreting bile that emulsifies fat, controls the metabolism of various nutrients, and serves as a reservoir for many of these same nutrients. The liver has over 500 critical functions in the body, and a healthy liver keeps life flowing smoothly.

The kidneys act as a filtration system, balancing our minerals and water to maintain homeostasis. A couple of signs of kidney overload can be sore back and arthritis.

The colon in a healthy state, provides nourishment via nutrient absorption, balances water and Potassium, helps production of Vitamins K, B12, thiamin and riboflavin, ensures adequate lymphatic flow to enhance immunity, as well as taking out the garbage! See The Most Important Organ.

The probiotics help establish the friendly, helpful bacteria, while the Detox helps remove the undesirable ones. This 2 part approach is very effective!

Detox Basics contains Berberine IR, (Berberis aristata) root, Milk Thistle, (Silybum marianum), Dandelion root (Taraxacum officinale)Choline bitartrate, as well as antioxidants Vitamin C, N-Acetyl-L-cysteine 55 mg and Beta-carotene 7000 IU, Curcuma longa (turmeric) rhizome

To get the best prices on NutriBiome Bacillus, Detox Basics, or any other therapeutic nutrition, plus professional support, please contact the author.

Dietary and lifestyle recommendation which enhance every herbal or nutritional program can be found in the author’s book: The Paw Paw Program –  a book written for serious conditions such as cancer that contains tips for achieving optimum health, no matter what health challenge one is facing.

Cleansing, Cancer & Health: The Truth About Cancer – A Global Quest

 

Updated Mar.2021

The Nov. 2015 Global Quest for Cancer series confirmed the importance of cleansing to eliminate disease, restore immune system and promote health. Episode 6 Global Quest – Truth About Cancer.  Minutes 10 – 20 are critical and summarize a few key concepts that are in my book, The Paw Paw Program.

Episode 6 focuses on the importance of cleansing the entire body in this order.

  1. Colon
  2. Kidney
  3. Liver
  4. Lymphatic
  5. Parasite
  6. Heavy Metal, especially if one has had many vaccines and prescriptions

Below we have listed references & education to the best natural products we have experienced over the last 30+ years. The professionals in this video mention most of the herbs that are in these products. Please go to TakeTheNaturalPath.MyNSP.com to see ingredients and pricing for any of the following quality products. (Choose your country in top R corner).

  1. Colon                 Clean Start, LBS and Psyllium Hulls on daily basis, Why Detoxify?
  2. Kidney               Kidney Activator/K-C Chinese, or KB-C Concentrate
  3. Liver                   Tiao He Cleanse
  4. Lymphatic        Cat’s Claw Una de Gato
  5. Parasite             Para Cleanse US/ Para Pak CA *
  6. Heavy Metal     Heavy Metal Detox

In addition, ideas for feasting on real foods, presented in the Truth About Cancer series, are covered extensively in Benoit’s book, The Paw Paw Program.  

Benoit’s dietary suggestions are essential for healing not just cancer, but all disease. A summary can be found in this article. Candida, Cancer and Optimum Health Diet . The book is obviously more detailed, as well as offering recipes to help people get started on healthier eating.

I loved hearing Dr. Rashid Buttar (30-32 mins) say that Ensure, commonly given to very sick patients in hospitals and undernourished seniors in homecare; “Ensure is like pouring gasoline on the fire – it feeds cancer.” Of course it is! As explained in my book, SUGAR FEEDS CANCER, and inflammation and depletes the immune system – and ensure is mostly sugar, dairy and grains, which most North Americans do not digest, plus chemicals.

At 1 hr. there is a good summary of so many natural treatment options for cancer, most of which are included in my book and in my health programs: mushrooms (reishi, maitake, shitake), cordyceps, resveratrol, curcumin & black pepper, ECG’s, Beta Glucans, to list a few.

You may be able to find the 2015 or other years  series online. If you have cancer, and have not heard any of the Truth About Cancer series, it is worthwhile to listen and learn.

  • Do not forget the importance of good diet, pure water, exercise, breathing, emotional healing and other lifestyle choices as explained in Chapter 6 of the Paw Paw Program.

Q&A: Gall Bladder

Question:

Hello Lorene, I have been having a gall-bladder issue for almost a year along with other problems, and I am wondering if you would be able to help?  Please also put me on your list for free natural health newsletter.  FD, BC

 

Answer:

Yes, we could, as we have helped others with Gall bladder issues.  Of course, every case is different and I would need more detail about issues you are having.

Some general tips may be found on my website blog under Liver article archives; especially the last one, as challenges with gall bladder start with the liver: http://www.naturalpathremedies.com/blog/category/healthy-solutions/liver-health/  and also involve bowel function – i.e. are you having minimum of one healthy bowel movement per day?

There is a Gall bladder flush, but I would need more information specific to your health to recommend this. We can schedule a free 10 min. appointment to see if this may help  and if you wish  to work with us toward your improved health; for more in-depth issues, it is in your best interests to book an appointment.

Here are two general formulas that may benefit you, but there is a lot more that can be done in addition to taking  herbs:
The healthful changes that one should undertake to improve ALL health conditions are very clearly explained in my book:  The Paw Paw Program – The “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally. As well, extensive dietary recommendations are given to help people understand how to eat better. Some recipes are also included.
Please contact us if you wish to obtain either of these formulas or the book, and thank you for contacting us – we are here to help!

Q&A: Hepatitis C

Question:

What would you suggest a person take for Hep C?  My husband  was diagnosed 6 years ago.  We’ve done well with our program, however the Doc still wants him to do the Interferon to kill the Hep C Virus. He did 2 Tiao He cleanses in December, then a Candida cleanse, then a Bod E Cleanse.  His blood work that just came back was the best ever! Took a month to build, then another Tiao He, and now another Bod E Klenz. When he’s not cleansing he takes Concentrated Milk Thistle Extract, Maca, Greenzone, Omega Oils, Probiotics, Mineral Chi, Liquid Chlorophyl and various other things as needed. Just wondering what might kill the Hep C Virus??  submitted by DS, BC.
HRP-C and/or LYM-X  and ???

Answer:

I think your husband is doing an excellent program! It is a general rule of thumb that any cleansing should be balanced by double of building, toning. So doing a 10-15 day Tiao He Cleanse,(US),  followed by a builder such as Milk Thistle Time Release Concentrate  (US & CA) for double the length of time is smart.
Dieter’s Cleanse (US) is safe to take longer term as it already has the 2:1 ration of build and cleanse built into the 30 day package. It is NOT just for dieting, as it is an excellent whole body cleanse and build program. If one needs to lose weight you will; if you don’t carry excess weight, you just lose toxins.

For Canadians contact the author to order the above two US cleanses, or for an excellent whole body cleanse which can be tailored to suit you.

Two other packaged cleanses available in both US and Canada (and many other countries) are Candida Clear (US & CA) and Para Pak (CA)/ Para Cleanse (US).
HRP-C  (called VS-C in US) is an excellent Chinese combination that can be taken to strengthen and balance the immune system, while helping the liver to detoxify. It was created by a Chinese medical doctor specifically for viruses, so is an excellent choice for ongoing maintenance of hepatitis, shingles, herpes, AIDS and Mononucleosis to name a few.

 I would think very carefully before undergoing interferon treatment, as the toxic side effects can be devastating. Remember what is supposed to be the medical maxim: DO NO HARM. I would add to this, “why fix it if it isn’t broken?” Sometimes doctors feel a need to prescribe treatment, even when someone is well, as they are not trained to understand how people can heal themselves naturally.
 
Lastly, I would make sure that in addition to using this excellent herbal program, you are both following the extensive dietary and lifestyle recommendations given in Lorene’s book: The Paw Paw Program – The “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally.

The easy to read explanations help people understand how to eat better, why it is critical to eliminate sugar, pH balance, stress and emotions, and exercise. All the four pillars of health are covered  that are so critical to optimum health and prevention of all chronic conditions and diseases.
Keep up the progress and keep us posted. It is always encouraging to see people taking positive steps for their better health and life!

Q & A : Porphyria cutanea tarda

QUESTION:
I have been diagnosed with Porphyria cutanea tarda. My father and brother had the same thing. I went to hospital today and had 3 ltrs of blood removed from my body. This procedure will take place every 2 weeks.  My body lacks the ability to rid itself of iron.  When sores appeared they got infected with staph, which thanks to your and Helga’s help I cleared up with Oregon Grape.  So I was misdiagnosed from beginning. They feel that menopause  along with me using tanning booth all summer awakened this condition. I had 10 times normal iron levels in my blood.
I have never been to tanning salon before and must say I will NEVER again. thankfully my liver was only mildly inflamed.
Can you recommend a good liver cleanse?

No words can thank you for all your help.

 

ANSWER:

An excellent liver cleanse is the Tiao He Pak – Tiao He, means Balance and Harmony in Chinese. This  is a whole body cleanse that also addresses bowels, lymphatic and kidneys – all systems that need to be eliminating to help the liver function better.

As your condition is excess iron, you may want to consider the Heavy Metal Detox formula for 2-3 months after. As you are probably getting iron levels monitored regularly,  you will be able to see empirical improvement, and even more important feel improvement.  In addition to, or after this,  Milk Thistle Standardized Extract– 1 or 2 per day will be a good liver support overall.

The Oregon Grape that was so successful for your staph infection is also an excellent aid for liver, skin and digestion. It is a good one to keep on hand, should any skin condition flare up in future.

Other helpful information concerning your liver can be found on our previous blog:
http://www.naturalpathremedies.com/blog/healthy-solutions/love-your-liver/

Genral healthful tips, including diet, exercise, pH balancing, some recipes can all be found in my book: The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally

Your condition is chemically complex, as all minerals have interactions and protagonist actions with each other, and rather than picking apart what is and is not functioning in the liver, anlayzing what pathways and chemical reactions are or are not working, the natural approach is to nourish and support the liver. IT knows what to do, and given the proper support, it will do it. The fact that this is genetically inherited should not dissuade you from healing it, as biogenomics science is showing that environment is much more powerful than genetics. This means YOU have the ability to change your past and your future!

Nature’s Sunshine has many liver aids, so please keep in touch so we can help you find the best ones for you.

Success with Staph Infection and Oregon Grape

Hello Lorene and Helga. Helga thank you so much for your phone call. It meant a lot to me.
My hands have not cleared completely but a Dr. Shaw (Dr of internal medicine) told me that the silver and Oregon grape stopped the infection on sores  from getting worse.
I have been diagnosed with Porphyria cutanea tarda. My father and brother had the same thing. I went to hospital today and had 3 ltrs of blood removed from my body. This procedure will take place every 2 weeks.  My body lacks the ability to rid itself of iron.  When sores appeared they got infected with staph.  So I was misdiagnosed from beginning. They feel that menopause  along with me using tanning booth all summer awakened this condition. I had 10 times normal iron levels in my blood.
I have never been to tanning salon before and must say I will NEVER again. thankfully my liver was only mildly inflamed.
Can you recommend a good liver cleanse?
No words can thank you for all your help. I love oregon  grape!!  Because of it doctor could write me a note saying I was not infectious. Then I went back to work. I will keep you updated.

Thank you!!!    P.L., BC

 Cancer – using Paw Paw approach

The following are 2 excerpts from my blog from a woman using the Paw Paw Program for cancer. Read the full comments by going to: 

The Paw Paw Program – A Christopher Columbus Approach to Cancer

Sept. 12, 2011: I received great news after my scans in August. They showed that there are no new tumors or inflammation anywhere and the tumors that were there have shrunk in size. There is greatly reduced inflammation in the bones of my hips (and the doctors are very pleased with what is happening. ……. I know the pawpaw, as well as the diet and everything else I’m doing, is contributing to my success.

From same woman, 4 months later.

Jann 31, 2012:  As for my health, it’s still phenomenal. I am so thankful to have gotten another good scan, with no new developments and no growth anywhere. I feel great, and am keeping a positive attitude. I used pawpaw again for one month before this last scan and I plan to use it again for a month in a few weeks. Thanks for checking in on me, hope you’re well.


Political Scene

Anti- depressants, SSRI’s result in decreased head size in fetal development, and low serotonin “theory” debunked. Read details of studies from Nederlands, US and Britiain:

http://www.anh-usa.org/babys-being-harmed-by-moms-antidepressants/

Quotes from Shawn Buckley, lawyer of the NHPPA (Natural Health Products Protection Association)          info@nhppa.org          website: nhppa.org

“We are told that we need the NHP Regulations to protect us from such evils as adulterated products, fraudulent claims, and unsafe products. Despite these assertions, there has never been a death caused by a natural health product in all of our history. I have asked Health Canada under an Access to Information Act request to provide any evidence of death caused by a natural health product since Confederation (1867). I was given no evidence.”

Lorene Benoit states:” I wish that prescription drugs could offer one-tenth of this safety record.”

In fact the opposite is true. There are numerous stories of people who most definitely are not being protected by the current regulations. Indisputable facts are piling up.

“There are many people with serious health conditions who have tried all of the doctor recommended chemicals either without success, or for whom the side-effects were intolerable. They have found natural products that work. Health Canada is now taking those products away. This is putting them at risk for either death, or at best tremendous suffering.”

HEALTH ACTION SOCIETY MAGAZINE – SPRING 2012

I confess that get quite upset when people like MPs tell me the Regulations are necessary for our “safety”. Indeed, I am now of the opinion that the word “safety” when used by politicians and bureaucrats is the most dangerous word in the English language. It is the only word that over-rides critical analysis in the population and leads the average citizen to willingly give up freedoms.”

“We know, for example, that the same products can be sold in the U.S. without a licence and that the Canadian requirement for a licence is relatively new. For Health Canada to pretend that there is a serious health risk because a product does not have a licence is stretching things. Indeed, the same unlicensed products in the U.S. are presumed by law to be safe.”

 Seletun Scientific Statement by.Dr. Olle Johansson, PhD explains how wireless technology, including telecommuncations, (cell phones, WiFi, Smart meters, towers) are biologically damaging our species and government is not protecting public from serious long term risk.

International Scientists Recommend Global Governments Adopt New Exposure Guidelines for Electromagnetic Radiation—Pointing to Biological Hazards and Risks to the Genetic Code from Unchecked Proliferation of Wireless Technologies. In this 18 minute video, Dr. Johansson, from Sweden’s renowned Karolinska Institute, and Chair of the Seletun Scientific Panel, announces a consensus agreement among international scientists on the need to reduce EMF (electromagnetic field) exposures to the population. The Seletun Scientific Panel’s recommendations are extremely important given the unchecked proliferation of wireless radiation over the past decade, such as from cell towers, wireless networks, wireless routers, cell phones, as well as because of the plans by many ignorant governments to blanket neighbourhoods in new, radiation-emitting utility ‘smart’ meters.
