Q & A – Paw Paw, myeloma, chemo & other herbs

 

Question:

My husband has multiple myeloma.  We have been trying to avoid conventional regime. His is very aggressive. Some success and some not. He is 50 so may have high (IL-6 overexpression). Wondering about Paw Paw to help keep the cancer cells from being resistant to herbs, Vit C etc. Thanks. Jennifer

Answer:

Absolutely, I know Paw Paw helps in all types of cancer. I would not say it stops cancer from being resistant to herbs though. In fact, I feel it is THE most effective herb available that I know if in my 35 years herbalism, and the science testing supports this. Perhaps you meant that Paw Paw inhibits chemo resistance? This is explained in my book and on the website.
The book can be ordered fastest and least expensive, by emailing us directly with all necessary information and payment, or you can order on the above site via PayPal.
and
this depends on dosage of Vit. C
If you wish 10 free minutes by phone, you need to send me your ph # as I am out of the country and do not have a number for you to call me. No charge, I have a computer phone which will come up as a California#. 9:30 PST is good for me.

Q&A – Scleroderma, Dermatomyositis

Question:

I have been recently diagnosed with scleroderma and dermatomyositis. I have been trying to control my symptoms with diet, but the Drs are now telling me that my heart is being damaged from the muscle disease and I have to start taking some extremely strong medication which has a side effect of causing cancer. I, of course, do not want to go that route so I am wondering if you have any suggestions that might help.
Thank you for your time. CJ

 

Answer:

Dear CJ,
Sorry to hear about your health challenges. What the docs have to offer is totally unacceptable – choose between heart damage or cancer? No thank you!

There ARE safer and better options. For something this complex, a free 10 minutes or quick email will not likely be of much benefit, but if you send your phone number, I will contact you to see what we can do.  After that it is $1 per  minute, minimum $25. We offer these reasonable fees, as we feel good health should be accessible to everyone.

I will also email you a questionnaire to complete before our 10 mins. and you can either email it back to me, or give me the totals when we speak.

Both of these conditions, in fact most dis-ease, including cancer,  involve inflammation and immunity. This is well explained in my book. It is packed with easy to understand life style suggestions including diet, food choices, pH, recipes, exercise, emotional health and stress, so this could be an invaluable aid to help you  “work with diet”. You can read about it and order on this Paw Paw Program page.

The one general suggestion I would make for inflammation and immunity that helps SO MANY conditions is Zambroza (Canada)and Thai Go (US). With 13 herbs blended for maximum effectiveness, many people get very quick results with many conditions including those you have, fibromyalgia, arthritis, MS and cancer. Please let me know if you would like to try two months of this, as I know you would feel the difference. We can discuss getting this for you at the best price once you email your phone number and we talk.

November – December, 2013

“Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.”                                  William Arthur Ward

As Christmas approaches, most of us have much for which to be grateful. We are grateful for so many things in our lives! At this time we would like to express our gratitude to all family, friends, clients, students and co-workers who have interacted with us in our health business in some way over the last 30 years.

We wish for internal peace to start in your heart and radiate outward to encompass your home, your community,  joining with others to envelope the world in peace.

A tribute to Nelson Mandela, a man of true peace, who said,

For love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.

M.N.  had not been feeling well for 5 days:

cold moving into her lungs which are susceptible to bronchitis.  Started on Lobelia that night and 2 doses the next day as well as rubbing it on her chest, throat and ears (she has had tinnitis for years, too).
She started feeling better in less than 24 hrs with just 3 doses!

Lara B. had poor digestion and severe eczema on hands for years.

She started Cat’s Claw Combination 2-3x a day, Protease Plus 1-3x/day on an empty stomach, daily super food shake with Collatrim, Chinese Mineral Chi Tonic, Flax Hull Lignans, berries, spinach and Solstic Energy.  Did separate bowel, kidney, liver cleanses and went off all grains, legumes dairy, sugar and night shades.  Digestion improved in 2-3 weeks and eczema cleared up in 8 weeks.  10 months later she is still following the diet and super food shake 1x/day.  Eczema and digestion is 98% better as long as this protocol is followed.

Q & A: Cancer of bladder recurring and prevention

Questions:

Paw Paw and its effects on bladder cancer: I have just started taking Paw Paw Cell Reg after being diagnosed with high-grade bladder cancer. Am not able to find much on the internet about its uses with Bladder CA. I was diagnosed with lung cancer 5 years ago, treated with chemo and radiation, and took graviola.

Tumor shrunk in 4 months from the size of a grapefruit to 2.9 cms. Continued the use of graviola for a year after with no recurrence. Now I have a second type of cancer. The small tumor I had in my bladder was removed 3 weeks ago, but I’m being told there are frequent recurrences with this disease, sometimes by muscle-invasive tumors, which would mean removal of the bladder.
I’m hoping to kill the cancer cells before recurrence with the held of Paw Paw. Do you know how soon Paw Paw actually begins to work or show effectiveness? As of now I have no tumors to shrink… just cells to kill.
My next question still is… since bladder cancer can be a lifetime recurring cancer, how do you know when it’s okay to stop taking it? McLaughlin says he doesn’t recommend using it as a maintenance, but more like an antibiotic… am also wondering if there is any possibility cells can also develop an MDR to Paw Paw with long term use.
Thanks very much for any help.                                  Doug M

Answers:

Unfortunately we see this often – cancer treated with any or all of the BIG 3, especially chemo, then another cancer appears down the road. Whether it has been caused by the toxicity of the first treatment, or is just a reflection that the immune system is not keeping on top of daily cell metabolism, is a moot point. This clearly emphasizes the importance of looking at balancing the entire body to prevent recurrence.

Paw Paw can work quickly – some have noticed a difference in energy levels within several days, for others it can take a month. However, if graviola worked in the past for you, then I suspect Paw Paw will work even better, as it is much more effective.

You are smart to keep on top of this to prevent any further tumor growth. As you are using Paw Paw Cell Reg (US name), this IS the correct species and reparation that has undergone all the research, and had the results.

You also need to look at other aspects of your lifestyle which may be allowing the recurrence. These are all explained in my book, The Paw Paw Program, as we find a person has much more success when they do more than just take herbs, even quality ones Like Paw Paw.

I would appreciate knowing from who you are purchasing the Paw Paw Cell Reg – this IS the correct, tested brand. This is the person who should be answering any future your questions, as part of the policy with Nature’s Sunshine Products is Quality, SERVICE and Integrity. If you are purchasing off Amazon, you are not going to get service.

For any future orders, please contact our office directly, then we can also support you, as well as ensuring you get it at direct cost from the NSP Company. (This person has since ordered the book and become one of our members for direct ordering and discount.)

To answer your second question, “when it’s okay to stop taking it?”,  I will ask you one back: what tests are your doctors using to decide whether you have cancer, whether you need chemo, or how your progress is doing? I would use these parameters, PLUS, even more importantly, HOW DO YOU FEEL? There is no problem taking Paw Paw until all symptoms are gone and you get a clear bill of health. My book addresses how to take for further prevention or re-occurance.

The lifestyle suggestions in my book are also designed to help you achieve and maintain optimum health and prevent other chronic conditions.

As far as dosage, the book explains that if you can split dosage every 6 hours, this is even more effective.

And no, in over 30 years there is no research to suggest cancer cells become  MDR resistant to Paw Paw, as it is not toxic like chemotherapy; it just interrupts ATP production, DNA and RNA replication.

Candida, Cancer and Optimum Health Diet

 This diet is an optimum diet for Candida, Cancer, Weight Maintenance and overall  health.

Lorene Benoit’s book:  The Paw Paw Program – The “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally gives detailed  explanation of why this diet is so effective for your health!

Focus on feasting your body with nutritious choices!

1. GREEN LEAFY:

All leafy greens:  Beet, Kale, Chards, Collard, Spinach, Mustard, Endive, Turnip, Poke, all Lettuces except Iceberg, Water Cress, Sprouts: Alfalfa, Clover, Pea, Broccoli, Radish, etc., Parsley, Chives, Oregano, Chickweed,  and all other herbs

 

2. GREEN:

Artichokes, Leeks, Asparagus, Lima Beans,  Green Peas, Broccoli, Green Pepper, Cabbage, String Beans, Celery, Brussel Sprouts, Cabbage

 

3. RED, ORANGE, PURPLE:

Beets, Tomato, Carrots, Red Cabbage, Eggplant, Red & Orange Peppers, Pumpkin, Yams, Sweet Potatoes, Chili Pepper, Red Lettuce

 

4. YELLOW AND WHITE:

Avocado, Turnip, Cucumber, Mung Bean Sprouts, Radish, Cauliflower, Squash, Yellow Wax Beans, Kohlrabi, Jicama

 

5. ROOT VEGETABLES:

Carrots, Rutabaga, Kohlrabi, Fresh Garlic, Onion, Beets, Radish, Yams, Sweet Potatoes, Jerusalem Artichoke

 

6. COMPLETE PROTEIN:

Eggs, Seafood, Meat, Poultry, Nuts and Seeds*

*Nuts and seeds are better digested, therefor  more nutritious if soaked overnight or almost to sprouting stage before eating.

7. OILS:

Cold Pressed Virgin Olive , Flax, Super Oil, Hemp, Coconut, Chia

 

8. DAIRY:

Butter, Cream, Whipped Cream

Many people who cannot handle dairy due to lactose intolerance can digest the fat of milk, so can have whipped cream, heavy cream or full fat yogurt; organic is preferable to avoid the hormones and antibiotics in regular dairy.

 

9. BEVERAGES:

Chlorophyll and Water, Super Shakes or Smoothies, (can be used as one meal replacement per day), Vegetable Broth

 

10. SALAD AND VEGETABLE DRESSING :

Fresh lemon or lime or pure, unpasteurized apple cider vinegar with cold pressed olive oil or other healthy oil is essential for EFAs.

– add garlic, onions, herbs & spices to create your own healthful homemade dressing/sauce

In Lorene Benoit’s book:  The Paw Paw Program – The “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally, there is an excellent dressing, “Alain’s Green Goddess Dressing“, which can be used for salads,  vegetables, grains or meats.

In this book, the sugar, yeast, candida, fungus and cancer connection are all well explained. Extensive dietary recommendations are given to help people understand how to eat better. Recipes are included.

Eliminating sugar is critical to optimum health and prevention of all chronic conditions, diseases and early detection!

This fact is finally being recognized in forward thinking mainstream medicine, but has taken over 25 years to become accepted.

 

11. BEANS, PEAS, LEGUMES, PULSES AND GRAINS :

Persons who adhere to strict vegetarian diets may rotate these and take small portions from the following, to supplement lots of vegetables.

Adzuki, Soy Beans, Black-eyed Peas, Black Beans, Navy, Split Peas, Kidney, Pinto, Red Beans, Lentils, Garbanzo/Chick Pea, Buckwheat, Millet, Amaranth, Quinoa, Spelt, Brown Rice, Rye,  Yellow Cornmeal, Oat Groats, Triticale

 

AVOID :

All sugars, (honey, molasses, maple syrup, etc.) pickled food, fermented foods, alcohol, dairy products, processed foods, yeast, wheat flour products, rancid seeds, nuts or oils, coffee, and black tea.

 

UPGRADING YOUR DIET AND HEALTH:

Once you are comfortable with this healthier way of eating, you can begin to “upgrade” your diet gradually with the following considerations:

  • Variety  – a wide range of colors provides vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients – follow the Rainbow!
  • Choose the best quality you can afford – organic and local whenever feasible; ALWAYS avoid GMO
  • Choose Blood Type foods that are Beneficial or Neutral
  • Avoid foods to which you test sensitive or allergic
  • Adjust to seasons: in  summer  fresh fruit and vegetables are abundant; this lighter diet feels much better with the hot weather.  In the winter the diet can be heavier with more proteins and oils
  • Food combining helps efficient digestion. The basics are:

– eat protein  with non starchy vegetables OR

– legumes or grains with non starchy vegetables

– limit fruit to local, seasonal and fresh; eat alone or between meals

– the less different foods combined in one meal, the better.

A good general diet over a period of a day would contain six – ten low glycemic or low carbohydrate vegetables, one protein, and one grain, with two different fruits  between meals if desired.

Naturally processed salt provides trace minerals, and has none of deleterious effects of processed salt. This means land OR sea salt that is naturally sun dried, without chemicals or high heat, has none of the trace minerals removed, and will be close to 84% sodium chloride. From p. 215 in Lorene Benoit’s book, The Paw Paw Program : 

Table salt has chemicals added to make it white in colour, and to flow. Better alternatives are Bragg’s Aminos or natural salt, whether it comes from the land or the sea. It is the processing that makes salt unhealthy. Healthy (unprocessed) salt will contain 84 – 86% Sodium Chloride (NaCl) and the rest will be minerals, including Magnesium, which is deficient in North American diets. Compare this to processed salt, which is usually 98-99% NaCl, because the minerals have been removed (to be sold, leaving you with the low cost leftovers).

To understand Candida better, please read: Candida Albicans/Yeast Infections. For Candida, cancer, any serious health condition, and optimum health, this diet is critical, as well as supplementation. Even with the best possible diet, daily needs can rarely be met with food alone.

Q&A: Paw Paw and Contra-Indicated Medications and Supplements

Question:

Can you take the paw paw if you are taking thyroid medicine?  Pat L.

Answer:

I do not focus on a lot of contraindications for the Paw Paw program. And, to be clear, I refer to the only to the Asimina triloba species of Paw Paw, as this is the plant with the research and results.  There are some websites which list herbs one must not take with Paw Paw. These websites do not return emails or calls requesting research or even  explanations for their statements. If they do not or cannot back up their statements with research, I don’t pay much attention.

As mentioned in my book,  The Paw Paw Program, thyroid “stimulators” are not recommended when following a program using Paw Paw. This may be based on statements similar to one by Dr. Duarte, October, 2008: “You shouldn’t take thyroid stimulators as well, things like 7-Keto or DHEA. These tend to stimulate thyroxin production.”

Understanding the mechanism of action of Paw Paw, we do not want to intentionally stimulate the thyroid when on the Paw Paw program.

HOWEVER, if someone is taking synthroid,  natural porcine thyroid prescription, or a herbal supplement for hypothyroidism, they need to stay on this, to help maintain  normal thyroid function critical for overall health, so one cannot just stop. If the thyroid is removed or destroyed by radioactive treatments, some form of thyroid supplementation is essential for life. This is different than taking high doses of thyroid stimulating herbs, when not needed.

Even if one is taking these thyroid medications or herbs, the benefits from the Paw Paw program still outweigh other options, such as toxic chemotherapy.

Most other supplements are fine, but please be sure to do FIRST the basic 4 as listed in the program in Benoit’s book, rather than too many others that may not enhance the overall effect. Once one is comfortable with the basic 4 components of the program, Paw Paw, Minerals, Omegas and Enzymes, then other herbs may be added to increase overall immunity or to address specific concerns and to ensure optimal functioning of all body systems. Some of those most recommended are in a past article Paw Paw Program Upgrade. Two of these include, Essiac Tea Concentrate and Pau D’Arco. Remember, cancer is not just a lump or tumor;  it is a reflection of the overall health of the entire body functioning as a unit, with optimization of the immune system.

UPDATE 2018:

You may also want to read Can I Take? (with Paw Paw). 

Please contact our office if you would like to order Paw Paw or other health supplements. Besides the best price,  we offer a direct account with discount and our support and personalized service.

Buying “Paw Paw Cell Reg” from Amazon is NOT advisable under ANY circumstances–even if it appears to be the same product. We have heard reports of tampered product, outdated product, or even fake product. In the words of one communication from the manufacturer–when you buy from Amazon, Ebay, and the like, you are essentially buying from an electronic yard sale.

Drug Maker Eli Lilly Suing Canadians for $500 Million

by SumOfUs.org 

Last month, Eli Lilly, one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in North America, filed a lawsuit against Canadian taxpayers for $500 million dollars. On what basis is an American corporation suing us for such an outrageous sum you ask? The $4.3 billion dollars Eli Lilly earned in profit in 2011 was not enough for the pharmaceutical giant.

Under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), a company can sue another NAFTA country if that nation’s laws affect its expected future profit. In this case, Eli Lilly is “losing profit” because Canadian regulators dared to act within Canadian laws and rightly denied patents on two of Eli Lilly’s expensive drugs.

These lost-profit lawsuits by profit-hungry corporations have to stop — otherwise, we will see the beginning of copycat lawsuits by foreign companies against Canadians. Speak out now against Eli Lilly and tell it to stop profit-motivated lawsuits like this one.

What can you do? Tell Eli Lilly to drop its ridiculous $500 million dollar lawsuit against Canadians at http://action.sumofus.org/a/eli-lilly/5/5/?akid=2008.

Video Pick: Breastfeeding

 We’ve heard a lot of thoughtful, impassioned arguments from moms who have to defend their rights to breastfeed in public, but we’ve never come across anything quite as powerful as this.

Hollie McNish, a published U.K. poet and spoken word artist, posted a video entitled “Embarrassed” on YouTube on July 4, that slowly but surely became a viral sensation.

McNish’s edgy, rap-like stanzas describe what it feels like to be publicly shamed into hiding out in toilet stalls to breastfeed her daughter.

Which part of the Paw Paw is best for rampant cell growth?

Question:

Hi there, I am thinking about ordering your book but before i do i have a question. Ive been doing some research on paw paw trees being a cancer cure and everything i found was talking about a certain type being the one that cures cancer. The type is the papaya located on the golden coast. I live in southern Illinois where the paw paw strain is asimina triloba. I was wondering if i took the stems and leaves and boiled them for two hours, then extract the liquid and drink it,would it have the same healing properties? To tell you the truth i am boiling the leaves as we speak as my father brought me the leaves today from the woods. Im a 24 year old male and to my knowledge i do not have cancer. However i am all about prevention. Please email me back, this is a subject that has kept me up night and day with frustration because i cant find the answers  I’m looking for. Thank you for your time and i look forward to your response, sincerely, eli.

Answer:

Yes, Asimina triloba is the correct species of Paw Paw that has been shown scientifically to inhibit rampant cell growth. However there are many other factors involved that have been discovered in  over 30 years of research. From my book,  The Paw Paw Program, A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer, Dr. McLaughlin’s videos and the  links below, you will see that not only what part of the correct species is used in critical, as is what time of the year it is harvested and how it is processed. The end product is standardized and tested for efficacy, purity, potency and quality with equipment that very few herbal companies can afford; which is why we have used Nature’s Sunshine products in our health business more than 23 years. Please read these two past posts:

Paw Paw, Graviola and Cordyceps

and
The following chart is from Dr. Jerry McLaughlin’s research slides, showing what concentration in ppm is required from each plant part to achieve a lethal rate of 50% in brine shrimp assays.
Brine Shrimp Lethality and %  Yields from plant parts of Asimina triloba
Plant Part Extracted                 LC50 in ppm      % age yield
Twigs                                       0.042 (0.20-0.09)        1.78
Unripe fruit                               0.060 (0.03-0.08)       5.11
Root wood                                 0.060 (0.03-0.08)         1.27
Seed                                        0.065 (0.03-0.10)     4.03
Stem bark   (7-88 )                     0.077 (0.04-0.12)         2.71
Stem bark  (10-90)                      0.102 (0.06-0.15)          1.96
Root bark                                   0.135 (0.09-0.21)          2.72
Stem, wood, & leaves                 0.202 (0.14-0.31)          1.6
Stem wood                                   4.86 (0.37-11.93)          0.9
Leaves                                        53.6 (33-82)               4.36
From this chart you can see that the leaves require an average of 53.6 ppm to achieve the same effectiveness as only .042 ppm of the twig preparation. The bark of the twigs harvested at their peak, determined by testing, is also a very renewable source of biomass.
Graviola and soursop tea and fruit are fine foods, but have little of the active ingredients s that make Paw Paw, Asimina triloba effective in stopping reproduction of cancer cells.
And yes, I agree that taking Paw Paw as directed for  prevention is a good idea, especially for those with a genetic predisposition to cancer and those who have had previous cancers. Paw Paw is also a very effective anti-parasitical and as parasites are responsible for multiple health issues, a seasonal parasite cleanse is an excellent health regimen. In the US. Paw Paw is part of a 10 day Para Cleanse; in other countries, we often suggest the addition of Paw Paw to Para Pak.

Q&A – Paw Paw vs Graviola, & Cordyceps

Question(s):

Some questions: can I take Paw Paw with Cordyceps Sinensis (1 cap per day bought from HTerra)? What about the recommended dose of Paw Paw per intake for a transplanted kidney patient? (had been 7 years on dialysis and then 8 years since the transplant).
The cholesterol is a bit high and taking Graviola 50 drops 4 times a day (200 drops per day of tincture), it was working pretty good reduction of 50% or more but had a regression (big inflammation of the neck). Can swallow without problem.

Thank you for your help. PZ

Answer(s):

Cordyceps is good for the immune system, therefore I see no contra-indications to use with Paw Paw.  A US formula by NSP called Immune Stimulator contains Cordyceps, Reishi, Maitake and other immune strengthening factors and complements the Paw Paw Program as mentioned in my book:  The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally.

I cannot comment on the company you mentioned, as we have used Nature’s Sunshine Products the last 23 years because of their quality and the results we get. If you are using other products, please do your research; here are some things to check:   7 Tips to Choose Quality Herbs & Supplements.

I do not see a connection between cholesterol and graviola, as lowering cholesterol is not one of the properties for which this herb is known. Perhaps better diet is making positive changes in your cholesterol levels.

As for graviola effects on decreasing rampant cell growth, it is great that you have seen results. If the positive changes have stopped , please refer to this past article comparing Graviola (Brazilia Paw Paw) with Asimina triloba, the Paw Paw species that has had all the research. We recently were fortunate enough to host Dr. Jerry McLaughlin. He presented his thrity years of research, which clearly demonstrates how much more effective Asimina triloba Paw Paw is to Brazilian Paw Paw, or Graviola.

As the Paw Paw extract he developed is the one with all the research and results, this is the one we use. It comes in a capsule form, but for anyone who might have trouble swallowing it , the capsules can be opened and taken as a tea. We have even used it via feeding tube with success in late stage cases.

Concerning dialysis, as explained in my book, Paw Paw we use is self limiting, so take to level of discomfort, nausea or diarrhea and then decrease to comfortable level. Your body will guide you if you listen to it!
