INTRODUCTION

Iodine is the heaviest essential trace element in the human body. Its concentrations in the body are 15–20 mg in thyroid tissue and hormones, but 70% of the body’s  iodine is in other tissues, including mammary glands, eyes, gastric mucosa, the cervix, brain and salivary glands. Its role in mammary tissue is related to fetal and neonatal development, but its role in the other tissues is unknown  except to act as an antioxidant. Iodine has an important action on the immune system as indicated by the high iodide-concentration in the thymus. Iodine deficiency is the leading cause of preventable mental retardation, a result which occurs primarily when babies or small children are rendered hypothyroidic by a lack of the element.

The knowledge of the importance of iodine in human health has lapsed from most medical doctors’ memory. Medicating the symptoms of iodine deficiency has become the standard practice. The body’s proprietary use of iodine is supplying the thyroids for producing the Thyroxine hormones, T4 and T3, necessary for life. After the primary use is supplied, iodine begins to accumulate in various body organs and tissues, assuming an abundant supply. It is the secondary functions of iodine that are being dismissed. For optimum health it is necessary to move beyond the deficiency standard of 0.150 mg and discover an individual’s sufficiency level.

An individual’s sufficiency level of iodine is established by loading the body with excess iodine (approximately 50 mg) daily until the amount of iodine excreted in the urine is almost equal to the daily intake. Iodine loading requires laboratory testing. The real daily iodine needed (after sufficiency is achieved) varies from 1.5 to 20 mg depending on an individual’s age, gender, stress level and health condition...

 Bio Magnetism & Electro Medicine Micro-Current Frequency Therapy

History of Healing Claims Associated with Micro Current Therapies: Cancer, HIV & AIDS

Dr. Royal R. Rife (1888-1971) spent 50 years discovering specific frequencies capable of destroying viruses. An expert inventor, Dr. Rife invented microscopes capable of viewing living organisms as small as virus size. Dr. Rife would illuminate the microbes with different color frequencies to observe them. Organisms would seem to fluoresce in specific colors which matched their resonate frequencies. He used the same frequencies and their harmonics at specific energy levels to disrupt these pathogens.  His  electronic frequency generating device is known as the Rife Machine.

The University of Southern California preformed clinical trials in 1934 with Rife machine technology on 16 terminally ill cancer patients and all 16 were cured within the trial period of 3 to 4 months. It is claimed that the treatment was painless, did not have side effects, did not harm healthy cells and did not include pharmaceutical treatment for the cancers.

Dr. Hulda Clark studied the work of Dr. Rife learning that every living creature does have a resonant vibration. Dr. Clarks uses of a small electrometer device to destroy parasites and pathogens she claims to be the foundation of all disease including AIDS. Dr. Clark has been the subject of huge amounts of controversy these days while having developed a huge International following bringing sick people back to health through the protocols of her published work. Dr. Clark's zappers are readily available and inexpensive. Sound has long been known to be a potent source of healing therapy throughout the world for centuries.

Renewed world interest in sound and frequency resonance is being used in a wide range of complementary and conventional medical applications all over the world. 

In the Fall of 1990,  two researchers,  Drs. William Lyman and Steven Kaali, working at Albert Einstein Medical College in New York City made an important discovery. They found that they could inactivate the HIV virus by applying a low voltage current to HIV infected blood in a test tube. They applied a direct current to the electrodes and found that a current flow in the range of  50-100 microamperes (uA) produced the most effective results. Practically all of the HIV viral particles were adversely affected while normal blood cells remained unharmed. The viral particles were not directly destroyed by the electric current, but rather the outer protein coating of the virus was affected in such a way as to prevent the virus from producing reverse transcriptase, a necessary enzyme needed by the virus to invade human cells.

Frequency & Magnetic Generators; Multi-Wave Oscillators; Sound Generators

Theory:  Microscopic life forms resonate and absorb micro currents specific to them.  Frequency generators use this to destroy micro organism infection by sending more energy than an organism can handle causing it to explode and/or disrupting replication processes enabling the body to destroy them.

Hulda Clark Zapper: The Zapper or Electro-Meter is a small electronic device developed by Dr. Clark and her son. It uses two copper handles that can be held or applied to other areas of the body delivering a DC electrical current between 7 and 8 volts to the body in the form of a square wave ranging from 5 to 30 kilo hertz. Lower frequencies supposedly penetrate the body easily making them more effective. Dr. Clark offers complete plans on how to make a Zapper in her book Cure for All Diseases by purchasing parts from Radio Shack.

The Bob Beck Silver Pulser: The Silver Pulser is a two in one electronic device functioning as bio stimulator doubling as a colloidal silver maker. The frequency generating feature of the device uses two electrodes that are placed over major arteries or veins such as those in the wrists and ankles. The Silver Pulser produces a small micro current in the blood stream as the blood passes by the electrode purportedly purifying the blood of organisms including parasites.   

The Bob Beck Magnetic Pulser: This device uses high intensity short duration magnetic pulses penetrating 8 inches into the body (16 inch total penetration) as a claimed means of killing or immobilizing organisms in the body. The hand held paddle design of the Magnetic Pulser apparently makes it highly useful for stimulating the lymphatic system and  clearing the lymphatic system of parasitic organisms.  In fact people claim it effective for stimulating and moving lymphatic fluids in a constipated lymphatic system. One's ability to place the coil anywhere on the body makes it easy to cover areas not treated by either the Zapper and Silver Pulser such as the lymph system, spleen, stomach, head and intestines. 

As a Physicist Bob Beck developed  the Silver Pulser, the Magnetic Pulser, a Water Ozonator and the Silver Maker to be used in conjunction with each other as his protocol to rid one of unwanted organisms in the body.  Mr. Beck recommends using the Silver Pulser for two hours a day for at least 30 days then periodically as needed to maintain a clean blood stream, the Magnetic Pulser in conjunction with the  Silver Pulser for 20 minutes a day, providing more specific advice and warnings from his experience to those who are HIV positive [See the  Beck protocol].  Dr. Clark's Zapper is typically used one to three times a day for an hour per session for one to two weeks. 

Multiwave Oscillators:  Geroges Lakhovsky: Rife machines and Multiwave oscillators are claimed to complement each other based on the principle that life forms absorb energy. A multiwave Oscillator uses this principle to strengthen cells within the body to resist disease while a Rife machine uses this principle to destroy microorganisms with an overdose of frequency energy.

ALL ABOUT HEALING

Personal Account:

A few years ago after my yearly eye examination, my ophthalmologist informed me that I had macular degeneration—and there was no cure for it.  He explained the condition could cause blindness and called a specialist for me for an appointment.

At home I found an A.R.E. circulating file titled Loss of Vision.  I thumbed through several pages until a particular reading caught my attention.  It was given to a person in Alabama in 1922.  Recommendations included diet, electrotherapy, physiotherapy and a prescription of herbs.  This herbal formula is available today as OptikadeÒ .  I happened to have a bottle at home and started using the tonic immediately.  By the time of my appointment the specialist concluded that I didn’t have a problem and must have been misdiagnosed. Could just a few days using these herbs have made such a difference?

Others have tried these herbs and have gotten excellent results. A woman in Beaumont reported her prescription for glasses had to be cut back after taking the herbal formula.  A 12-year-old girl in Virginia tried these herbs for the headaches she got when reading for long periods.  It worked and her eyes steadily improved from 20/50 and 20/40 to 20/10 and 20/15. She never filled the prescription for the glasses.  During this time she also had one chiropractic adjustment each month, ate two or more raw carrots a week and did head and neck exercises everyday.

At the A.R.E. Center we recommend this Cayce formula to anyone that has difficulty with his or her eyes.  If the condition is nutritionally related, then it will help.  For a modest price you can at least determine that better nutrition will help.

   

 

CATARACTS and GENERAL EYE HEALTH

Edgar Cayce recommended many procedures for the health of the eyes that would help prevent or clear up cataracts.  Cataracts occur when the clear lens of the eye becomes clouded.  The progression is painless and often not noticed until it has progressed quite a bit.  The process is begun by poor circulation that prevents the eye from ridding itself of "debris." Cayce also considered spinal lesions that block nerve impulses as contributing to the condition.

The following procedures were recommended for maintaining eye health and reversing many conditions: spinal adjustments in the upper cervical and dorsal areas to aid circulation; include in the diet plenty of seafood, carrots and carrot juices, and B-vitamins; use the Violet Ray Device directly on the eyes while closed and on the back of the neck to "enliven the nerves"; use Glyco-thymaline either as a poultice over the eyes or as
eye drops (1 part Glyco to 2 parts distilled water); potato poultice (scrape the white part of the Irish potato with the flat edge of a knife and collect onto a cloth) over the eyes to draw out accumulated toxins and a general
massage with peanut oil to aid elimination.

When Edgar Cayce was asked about illness, he would almost always approach the condition from the perspective of changing the underlying conditions.  Usually with any illness there are conditions of constriction causing poor circulation of blood and nerve energy resulting in an accumulation of toxic substances and inadequate nourishment of the affected areas.  In general we should pay closer attention to Circulation, Assimilation, Relaxation, and Elimination (C.A.R.E.).

This research paper is a comparison of Edgar Cayce’s instructions from 1928 for making a new form of Carbon and the scientific breakthrough discovery in the mid 1990’s of a new class of molecules called Fullerenes. The similarity of the two substances was noted by the authors who live in Houston because of the extensive coverage in the Houston news media of Dr. Richard Smalley’s research at Rice University and his subsequent Nobel Prize in Chemistry for discovering Fullerenes.

We have no way of proving Carbon Ash and Carbon 60 are the same as there are no surviving samples to test for comparisons.  You can draw your own conclusions from the facts presented. 

Learning to use Carbon Ash / Carbon 60 to improve human health has been delayed by lack of information.  If Mr. Cayce was correct about Carbon Ash, could he also be correct about its utilization and that it will  be a boon to humanity?

How to Make a Castor Oil Pack

  MATERIALS NEEDED FOR A CASTOR OIL PACK:

1.

White wool flannel (3 to 4 thicknesses of unbleached wool flannel, make wide enough to cover lower abdomen from 3 finger widths left of navel extending around the right side to cover the liver and about 10 inches long).

2.

Plastic sheet—medium thickness.

3.

Hot Water Bottle, Heat Lamp or Electric Heating Pad.

4.

Bath towel & two large safety pins.

 Instructions for use:

   A Castor Oil Pack is made by soaking the flannel in cold-pressed castor oil (heat processed oil doesn’t have the same healing qualities) until it is evenly saturated with oil but not dripping. Additional oil will have to be added after each use to keep it saturated. It is a good idea to pre-warm the pack in a microwave oven on a medium setting for 1 minute or by placing the pack on a heating pad on high until it is warm.

   Place the Castor Oil Pack on the area to be treated next to the skin and a sheet of plastic over the Pack to keep the oil from soiling other things. Next, wrap a towel over the Pack and keep it in place with the safety pins. The usual time for a pack is I hour. It is a good idea to use a safe source of heat over the pack to drive the oil into the skin. Use a hot water bottle or a heat lamp for this purpose (a heating pad is not recommended because of the electromagnetic field it generates). Sometimes it is also necessary to keep the pack on all night, but do not use heat when using the pack this way.

   Cleanse the skin after using a Pack with warm water and baking soda. This is important because toxins can be pulled to the surface by the Pack and will be reabsorbed if not washed off. If the Pack shows dark stains after a use, discard it and use a fresh Pack the next time. Do not share Packs.

   Packs can be used many times as long as they are not soiled. Store the Pack in a plastic package. Although castor oil is very stable, after time it can go rancid. Storing the pack and oil in refrigeration will extent the life.

White Wool Flannel Packs are available at:

Summery of  Positive Health News Report on
Castor Oil Packs as an Immune Stimulant

APRIL 1995 

  Twelve AIDS patients have experienced significant improvement in their immune systems after  using Castor Oil Packs. All the PWA’s who followed the protocol correctly had very rapid increases in one or more of the indicators: CD4’s, White Blood Cell Counts,  Monocytes and Neutrophils. 

PROTOCOL 

  The castor oil must be cold (expellor) pressed.   High heat applied during the processing will destroy the therapeutic value of the oil.  The pack should be 4 plies of white wool flannel large enough  to cover  an area 2 inches left of the naval and wrap around the right side of the abdomen covering the liver area.  It should be about 10 inches by 14 inches long after folding four times.  If wool cannot be tolerated, then substitute white cotton, but the beneficial effect will be diminished.  Saturate the pack with oil (not dripping).  Add 1 to 2 tablespoons  of oil to the pack before each session.  The oil soaked pack should be next to the skin covered by a sheet of plastic to keep the oil from touching bed linen and such.  Place a heating pad over the plastic and a bath towel over the whole thing to help keep it in place.  Use safety pens if necessary.  This should stay in place for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.  Use the packs 4 days a week over the abdomen area and 3 days over the Thymus gland area.  Repeat as often s necessary.

CASE REPORTS

  Judy from New York used the Castor Oil Packs 3 times a week for 3 months.  Her CD4’s  increased from 180 to 220.  She also used Chinese Herb’s but took no drugs.  She  feels fine and discontinued the packs due to a busy schedule.

  Christopher from Indiana used the Castor Oil Packs and Whole Lemon/Olive Oil Drink only daily.  His immune system had been gradually declining for the previous 12 months.  After one month the CD4 count moved from 90 to 210; WBC count moved from 2,600 to 12,600;  CD8 count moved from 690 to 700.  There were also increases in RBC’s, HGB and HCT as well as higher Platelet counts, all moving in a normal direction. He avoids all prescription and recreational drugs and eats a wholesome diet.

  Matthew from Green Bay used the packs 5 days a week, increased to 7 days a week for awhile  then 3 days weekly for 4 months.  He also used the Lemon/Olive drink occasionally and followed the AIDS Control Diet plus steamed vegetables, boiled meats and yams daily.  While following this protocol he also took  Diflucan for thrush, Septra for PCP and Diphenhyram for itching.  His  blood work showed: CD4 count from 42 to 98;   CD8 count from 420 to 1146.  During this time he continued his use of cigarettes and alcohol.

  In Chicago 3 PWA’s tried the Castor Oil Packs daily.  One had a CD4 count increase from 35 to 700 in 6 months;  one went from 80 to 900 in 5 months;  the third  person  with a CD4 count  of 3 died of a MAI infection during the first month.

  Dan from Milwaukee discontinued all treatments except the Lemon/Olive drink and Castor Oil Packs.  After one month his CD4 count went from 257 to 328 and he gained 8 lb.

  Robert M. reported  an increase in his CD4 and CD8 counts by rubbing castor oil over his lymph nodes.  However the counts fell again after he changed to a brand that was not cold pressed. A friend tried massaging castor oil over his chest and abdomen areas daily before bedtime for two weeks without the wool or heating pad. His CD4 count went from 540 to 660.

  A PWA in Lehman, Pa used the packs  for 12 weeks 3 times on the abdomen and 3 times over the thymus weekly.  His CD4 count increased from 525 to 699.  He also took Pycnogenol, garlic tablets and GE132 and he smokes cigarettes.  He says he feels too good to strictly adhere to the AIDS control diet.
 

 

   

 
History:
Several years ago a Center Member wanted to know about a special mix of herbs reported to be a cure for cancer. These herbs were very familiar as Edgar Cayce often used them in various combinations for the elixirs he formulated for different individuals.

The history of this remedy is very interesting.  Nurse Rene Caisse, practicing in the Toronto, Canada area, was first introduced to the remedy in 1922 by a patient who claimed to have been cured of breast cancer. The formula for the remedy was part of the traditional medicine of the Ojibwa Indians who referred to it as “a holy drink to purify the body to reconnect to the Great Spirit.”

Later relatives and friends who had heard the story from Ms. Caisse wanted to use this traditional medicine for some of their own conditions. Ms. Caisse began collecting the herbs and administering the remedy to individuals who received substantial help. So many people were coming to Ms. Caisse for help that the Canadian Medical Association took notice and investigated. You can guess the rest. Investors wanted exclusive rights to the formula for manufacture, which Ms. Caisse refused, and the medical doctors wanted her to stop treating people. Ms. Caisse was only interested in helping people and was eventually prosecuted.

There were so many people who had been saved by Ms. Caisse’s work that a petition for a special law to protect her was presented to the Canadian government. In the debate that followed the medical profession just barely prevailed with a compromise that required Ms. Caisse to work only with patients who had been declared incurable by a doctor. Peer pressure then made it impossible for Ms. Caisse to ever get the proper documentation for using her Herbal Tea. So she was forced to hide her healing work.

Research
After more than thirty years of harassment, Ms. Caisse finally made the connection she needed to have a supportive study done of this traditional medicine in a clinical setting.  She was invited to the Brusch Medical Center in Massachusetts to work with Dr. Charles A. Brusch in 1959. Dr. Brusch and a medical herbalist worked with Ms. Caisse to improve the effectiveness of the remedy to its present formula.  Dr. Brusch is famous for being President John F. Kennedy’s personal physician.  Much later on a radio broadcast in Toronto Dr. Brusch stated:

The results we obtained with thousands of patients of various races, sexes and ages, with all types of cancer definitely proves Rene Caisse’s Herbal Tea to be a cure for cancer. Studies done in laboratories in the United States and Canada also fortify this claim.

Why is this remarkable remedy not being used? Simple. It doesn’t fit the research protocols. Because it is a natural product it can’t be patented and will not generate enough profit to cover the very expensive F.D.A. approval procedure.

How does this herbal remedy work? It rids the body of toxins.  Our bodies are capable of overcoming all disease conditions naturally when properly nourished and cleansed.  Over a lifetime, toxic substances build up in our body faster than we can get rid of them. At some point our body’s natural recuperative ability starts to fail and we become ill. Mr. Cayce also followed the strategy of cleansing the body and making sure that adequate nutrition was being absorbed.  The stress factors Mr. Cayce included were mental, spiritual as well as physical.  These herbs target particular toxins, gather them up, break them down and then help the body to discharge them.  When the body no longer needs to utilize its energy to counter toxins, it can focus on rejuvenation.

 

The original formula contains: Sheep Sorrel, Burdock Root, Slippery Elm Bark and Rhubarb Root.  The enhancers later added after research at the Brusch Medical Center in Massachusetts are Watercress, Blessed Thistle, Red Clover and Kelp.
 

 

The following are descriptions of these herbs:

SHEEP SORREL
Sometimes known as sour grass and an ancient herbal remedy used to for cancer.  It seems to attack tumor cells and causes them to break down.  It also has anti-venomous properties, treats skin conditions, tonic for urinary tract, oxygenates cells, supplies vitamins A, B-complex, C, D, E, K, P & U and generally stimulates the body to regenerate damaged tissue.  It also has many compounds associated with Chlorophyll that are proving very beneficial to human health.  It is rich in oxalic acid in the form of potassium oxalate.

BURDOCK ROOT
Is a powerful blood purifier and clears congestion in circulatory, lymphatic, respiratory and urinary systems.  It helps eliminate excess fluids and toxic waste materials from the liver, gall bladder, and kidneys.  It is also helpful for infectious diseases.  A principle ingredient in burdock root is Inulin, which is helpful for regulation of blood sugar.  It is also a powerful immune stimulator, is effective against bacteria and fungus cultures, and has strong anti-tumor activity.

 SLIPPERY ELM BARK
Its principle component is mucilage, which is an excellent cleanser.  It dissolves mucus that has been deposited in organ tissue, lymph glands and nerve channels.  Its lubricating action protects and softens all aged and inflamed areas including joints, bones and the bowel.  Its coating action protects the lining of the digestive track.  It also has antibiotic and antimicrobial properties.

 RHUBARB ROOT
A detoxifying herb for the blood.  In Chinese medicine it is used to treat excess heat in the small intestines which is an indicator of the presence of toxins.  It purges the body of bile, parasites and stagnating food.  It cleanses the liver, improves digestion, increases the appetite, heals ulcers, helps the spleen and colon relieving constipation, heals hemorrhoid and bleeding in the upper digestive tract.  It contains Rhein, which inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria and Candida in the intestines.  It is effective in relieving fever, inflammation and pain.

Enhancers:  

WATERCREST
It contains specific Indoles that activate enzymes in the body that deactivate and dispose of excess estrogen thereby reducing the risk of several serious diseases, is effective in treating respiratory congestions, especially cold-related runny nose and coughs, used for treating lethargy, joint problems, vascular deficiencies, bronchitis, scurvy and goiter.  In Europe, watercress is popular as a blood cleanser.  It activates detoxification enzymes in normal cells.  Animal studies demonstrate clear inhibition of abnormal cells.  One study of lung disease with animals using isothiocyanates found in watercrest,  showed effective inhibitors of chemicals that induce disease.

BLESSED THISTLE
It stimulates bile flow and cleanses the liver.  It contains bitters which increase gastric juice and bile acid secretions by increasing the flow of saliva through stimulation of specific receptors on the mucous membrane lining of the mouth and are used to strengthen and tone the body.  It has been shown to strengthen the walls of blood vessels and capillaries thereby improving overall blood circulation and prevent degradation by enzymes and free radicals and aids in the repair of damaged collagen and elastin.  It has considerable activity for stimulating cellular regeneration, detoxification and cleansing.

RED CLOVER
A legume rich in isoflavonoid phytoestrogens including: genistein, daidzein, formononetin and biochanin-A, compounds that support critical hormone levels within the body in both men and women, without having any negative side effects.  Phytoestrogens from red clover help with bone density and menopausal symptoms.  It is valued for treating respiratory problems, colds, flues and infections.  Red clover is recognized as a detoxification herb or "blood cleanser".   Phytoestrogens support good health in many ways such as: 1) they bind at estrogen receptors and assist the body to normalize hormone production 2) they reduce cholesterol and support the liver in detoxifying the blood 3) they are powerful antioxidants; 4) they prevent the formation of new blood vessels that feed abnormal cells; 5) they inhibit abnormal cell growth, and 6) they boost several beneficial enzymes within the body that prevent DNA adducts and reduce cellular damage and aging.

KELP
It is an excellent source of iodine, a major component of thyroxine and triiodothyronine, hormones that affect weight gain and cellular metabolic rates.   Based on human studies, 4mg of iodine daily completely resolves cyclical breast lumps and cysts, usually within only two months.  The alginates in kelp (complex polysaccharides), like other soluble fibers, have a soothing and cleansing effect on the digestive tract and are known to prevent the absorption of toxic metals like mercury, cadmium, plutonium and cesium.  Kelp alginates are also hydrasorbent laxatives.  It stimulates the immune system,  inhibits 95% of abnormal cell growths, and causes regressions in 6 out of 9 animals tested.  Kelp also has antiviral activity against influenza virus due to a very active inhibitor of viral and bacterial neuraminidase.

 
Preparation
The preparation of Rene Caisse’s Herb Tea is as important as the formula itself.  It is a decoction, not an infusion. An infusion is what people make when they put a tea bag in a cup of hot water.  Generally speaking, an infusion tends to extract vitamins and volatile oils.  A decoction is used to extract minerals, etc. from roots, bark or seeds by boiling for ten minutes and then allowing the herbs to steep for several hours.  Preparation of the Tea must be in stainless steel, glass or ceramic containers, but never with anything aluminum.  After bringing the mixture to a gentle boil for 10 minutes, allow it to steep over night at lease 12 hours. Before bottling bring the mixture to boil and let it cool enough to handle.  Strain the mixture through a stainless steel colander that is coarse enough to allow the slippery elm to pass.  The final liquid will include particles and should be slightly viscous or thick looking.

The tea must be refrigerated in dark glass containers.  The particles will settle to the bottom of the containers and can be avoided by carefully decanting the liquid as you use it.  However, drinking the sediment is not harmful, but is unpleasant for some people.

Dosage
The dosage is two ounces of the Tea and 2 ounces of boiling filtered water one to three times daily on an empty stomach.  It is best to not eat for an hour before drinking the Tea and an hour afterwards.  As a preventative, one dose a day should be adequate.  To restore health use two doses a day.  If you are confronted with a serious condition, use three doses a day.  There are no negative side effects even after long-term use and it can be used with your current medications.
 

 

Some of the reported successful uses of the Tea are:  

Hypoglycemia; Multiple Sclerosis; Parkinson’s; Arthritis; Malignancies; Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Ulcers; Fibroids; Thyroid Problems; Hemorrhoids; Prostate & Urinary Problems; Circulation; Warts

Diabetes; Psoriasis; Sleeping Disorders; Impotence; Alzheimer’s; Asthma;; Allergies.

(Note: Unfortunately few clinical studies have been done to support these benefits but there are numerous testimonies from individuals who have been helped.)
