BAKING SODA REVERSES METASTISIZED CANCERS

An astonishing simple way to quell autoimmune reactions throughout the body is to use BAKING SODA (sodium bicarbonate). A half-teaspoon of baking soda (not baking powder) with a half-a-glass of water taken on an empty stomach immediately thrusts the digestive tract into an alkaline state.

Well, I don't want to keep the secrets of the realm to myself forever, so I guess I'll go ahead and share with folks a simple remedy that doctors may know about but won't tell his patients about.  That remedy?  Baking soda.  What did I say?  BAKING SODA.  Not baking powder, but BAKING SODA; yeah, that Arm & Hammer salty tasting powder.  I don't want you to forget, BAKING SODA.

Relaxes muscles.

Reverses kidney failure. 

Shrinks tumors.  

Reverses metastasized cancers. 

ON MUSCLES

A friend of mine who is a nurse shared with me a few years back on the relaxation benefits of it. When I used to run, my knees would get sore or tender.  So I tried 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and voila.  All the muscles in my legs and back were relaxed.  It was the best feeling.  I'd wished I'd learned of it and used it years ago.  Live and learn.  Its effectiveness forced me to read up on it, and what I did read was almost too fantastic.  I learned that baking soda can reverse kidney failure.  What!!!  I am sensitive to the meanings of words.  My FB friends can't stand that I hold them to account on the meanings they convey with words, so when I read that baking soda REVERSES kidney failure, I had to read it for myself.  In fact, it gets people off of dialysis.  [According to that article, the kidneys all by themselves produce 250 mgs of bicarbonate soda per day.  Baking soda tones the kidneys and, get this, shrinks tumors.  Go figure.]  How much does one need to take to get miraculous results?  It depends.  My nurse friend warned me, several years ago, that you only need 1 teaspoon per week.  So that's all I tried and I got relief once a week, but if you read the testimonies below you'll find people taking  1/2 to 1 teaspoon per night, some even 2 teaspoons per day.  I take between 1/2 to 1 teaspoon per night and love the effects upon waking.  It relaxes my digestion through the night, so none of those bad dreams from poor digestion.

REVERSES METASTISIZED CANCERS

In 2015, I'd read that baking soda reverses metastasized cancers.  Here's the headline, "Even the most aggressive cancers which have metastasized have been reversed with baking soda cancer treatments." Stunning. 

BAKING SODA WORKS BY SIGNALING THE SPLEEN

In April of this year, I'd read about the mechanism that makes baking soda such a powerful remedy.  The mesothelial cells on the surface of the spleen are triggered by baking soda, but that trigger is not to activate anti-inflammatory cells but rather it signals the spleen to NOT mount an overly protective immune response that can alter a delicate balance between M1 and M2 macrophages, meaning white blood cells that target bacteria, viruses, parasites, and tumor cells.  What the presence of cancer does is it activates a non-stop response to an inflammatory environment.  The baking soda quells that inflammation, and so the immune system is calmed.  It's that calm that accounted for my relaxation in my muscles and joints.  It was drug-like: deep and wonderful.  Read this:

Researchers at the Medical College of Georgia have discovered a nerve center in a cell layer in the spleen that controls the immune response and therefore inflammation throughout the body.  Given that virtually all chronic age-related disease involves inflammation (called inflammaging), this discovery is of monumental significance and has widespread application for virtually every organ and tissue in the body as the spleen is not only an abdominal organ that is involved in the recycling of old blood cells but is also a key part of the human immune system.

Then just recently, Bill Sardi wrote and sent out an article where he cites people who'd read his article on baking soda and wrote into him to tell him of its benefits on their conditions.  Where do I begin?

The rest of this article belongs to Bill Sardi.

TESTIMONIES

Here is one report:

I just wanted to share an email from my mother (age 76) forwarded below.

I informed her of your Baking Soda article about 10-days ago because after taking 1/2tsp baking soda dissolved in ~12oz of water 1-2 X daily for ~4wks I was relieved of a persistent dermatitis I have had for over TEN years. T-E-N; not sort-of-itchy and I-can’t-remember-when-I-got-it.  I distinctly remember watching HBO’s “Soprano’s” when they were still being made (2006-7) in the house-I-lived-in at the time & raking my calves with my fingernails until pain exceeded relief.

I have had itchy, scabbed calves ever since my calves are mottled with scars. A month of baking soda; 99% gone. (Diet & lifestyle remain unchanged for you nay-sayers)– Steve

Here is another account:

Between having to get up 7-8 times to pee, and bad lower back pain, a full night’s sleep is an illusion. I now have a med for the pee problem, and with the baking soda calming the inflammation curse, I have had an uninterrupted night’s sleep for 3 nights!!!! Before now I wanted to nap after being up for not very long! This is the first time I awake, get out of bed without being hobbled by pain and feeling able to welcome & tackle the day.

And another:

I finally listened to this past Saturday’s show about baking soda. I’ve been using that remedy for a few years. Every now and then I get psoriasis flare-ups. Psoriasis is an autoimmune issue, as you know. I use a teaspoon of baking soda in a half glass of water. I drink it every couple of hours. After several hours, the flare-up subsides… Friends of mine that have autoimmune issues, I tell them that it works. It’s like banging my head against a wall. They wanna spend hundreds of dollars going to the ER, more money on the drug. People don’t wanna believe there is a cure for that stuff. I swear by baking soda.

But there’s more. Patients are taking over and telling their doctors. Here’s a letter written to the editor of Kidney International journal entitled:

To the Editor: 

Goraya et al.1 have, in their interesting paper, shown that short-term (30 days) dietary acid reduction due to fruit and vegetable (F+V) or sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) consumption attenuated kidney injury in hypertensive chronic kidney disease (CKD; stadium II) patients undergoing therapy with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. The F+V diet reduced systolic blood pressure and body weight, but NaHCO3 did not affect these parameters. In a comment on this paper, researchers stated that F+V diets rather than NaHCO3 supplementation might be the key to halting CKD progression. The truth seems to lie somewhere in between in that simultaneous use of F+V diets and NaHCO3 is required. In this study, NaHCO3 caused greater aldosterone reduction than the F+V diet. Because aldosterone is involved in kidney injury, long-term NaHCO3 supplementation can be more beneficial than the F+V diet alone. Furthermore, the F+V diet reduces urinary sodium concentration. An epidemiological study reported that lower sodium excretion in healthy patients is associated with higher cardiovascular disease mortality. Because the Na+ cation seems more likely to increase blood pressure when combined with the Cl− anion than with HCO3− (ref. 4), providing sodium through bicarbonate rather than kitchen salt seems reasonable. Low long-term dietary compliance is another issue with the F+V diet. Therefore, it seems that CKD patients should use NaHCO3 supplementation as well as F+V diets.

Then another astounding news headline (abridged):

Baking Soda Could Cure Cancer

Baking soda could help fight cancer by making cells easier to target, a study has found.

Drinking the powder dissolved in water could make cells inside a tumor more active and easier for chemotherapy drugs to kill, according to researchers.

As a tumor grows bigger it cuts off the blood supply of cells inside it, causing them to effectively shut down and hide away.Baking soda, however, could trick them into acting normally and becoming an easier target for chemotherapy drugs, which target active cells.

‘The concept is so easy,’ said one researcher. ‘It’s not some $100,000 per year drug. It’s literally just baking soda.’Because the cells are more active when baking soda – also known as bicarbonate of soda – is consumed, in theory, they are more susceptible to cancer therapies.

The ability of baking soda to neutralize acids is key to the success of this research.

In solid tumors large numbers of cells have their oxygen supplies cut off – a condition called hypoxia – which causes their pH level to drop and they become acidic.

If these dormant cells are cancerous and are not reached by treatment, they may reactivate after the original tumor is removed and make the cancer grow again.

However, baking soda is good at neutralizing acid so drinking it could reduce the acidity of a tumor and bring the dormant cells back to life, the study suggests.

Therapy could target hard-to-beat cancer cells

The findings – published today in the science journal Cell – are important because dormant cells cannot typically be killed by chemotherapy.

Said the lead researcher: ‘In tumors grafted into mice, we see [cell] activity in spotty places where there’s oxygen. ‘But if you add baking soda to the drinking water given to those mice, the entire tumor lights up with activity.

Baking soda may also help with arthritis

Research published earlier this year claimed baking soda could help arthritis sufferers by reducing inflammation. After two weeks of drinking water with baking soda, people produced fewer immune cells that drive inflammation and more than dampen it down.

The study author said: ‘The shift from inflammatory to anti-inflammatory is happening everywhere. We saw it in the kidneys, we saw it in the spleen, we see it in the blood.

‘[Drinking baking soda] is potentially a really safe way to treat inflammatory disease.’ The concept is so easy,” he says. “It’s not some $100,000 per year drug. It’s literally just baking soda.”

So everyone wants to know it baking soda works. Here is an excerpt of a report I recently wrote:

BAKING SODA (SODIUM BICARBONATE) FOR MACULAR DEGENERATION & AUTOIMMUNITY

When white blood cells attack the tissues in the human body rather than invade and kill off bacteria and viruses an AUTOIMMUNE REACTION is said to occur. The primary white blood cell that launches a “body against itself” attack is called a macrophage (ma-kro-faj).

These macrophages emanate from monocytes, which you will find listed in a complete blood count. Macrophages literally digest or engulf pathogenic microorganisms. When too many macrophages arrive at the site of inflammation they bang into each other, releasing iron, which in turn creates tissue-destructive oxygen free-radicals.

There are two types of macrophages called M1 and M2. The M1 macrophage generates inflammation that kills off tissue damaging bacteria and viruses. M2 macrophages are wound healing and tissue repair white blood cells. A balance between M1 and M2 macrophages is needed for health. An imbalance between M1 and M2 macrophages is called macrophage polarization.

Researchers now realize macular degeneration involves macrophage polarization.

An astonishing simple way to quell autoimmune reactions throughout the body is to use BAKING SODA (sodium bicarbonate). A half-teaspoon of baking soda (not baking powder) with a half-a-glass of water taken on an empty stomach immediately thrusts the digestive tract into an alkaline state. Normally the digestive tract is very acidic so we can digest foods and break down nutrients so they can be absorbed.

The alkaline baking soda forces the digestive tract to rebalance towards acidity. In turn, this is a trigger for nerve cells in the spleen to send an anti-inflammatory signal throughout the body. The spleen is a small organ that stores, recycles and removes old blood cells in the body. When you exercise and get a stitch or cramp in your side that is your spleen squeezing down to supply more blood cells to your circulatory system.

Autoimmune reactions commonly occur in kidneys, lungs, liver, thyroid, skin, joints, eyes and other organs and tissues. Out of balance macrophages incite a wound healing response that involves growth factors. An abnormal amount of growth factor in the circulatory system (called vascular endothelial growth factor) can trigger the outcropping of new blood vessels that invade the visual center of the eyes (the macula) and destroy light receptor cells. This occurs in the advanced form of macular degeneration.

Fortunately, drugs directly injected into the eyes that block the production of this growth factor can successfully quell inflammation and save vision. Repeated injections are often needed.

However, it is obvious if there is a way to inhibit autoimmune reactions throughout the body it will help put a halt to vision loss and many other autoimmune problems.

The baking soda remedy for autoimmunity is something simple you can do each day at home. Use a ½ teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water for at least two weeks to fully evaluate its effectiveness. Don’t take baking soda with meals as the digestive tract needs to be acidic to properly absorb nutrients like calcium, magnesium, B vitamins and vitamin C. Daily baking soda use is safe. The sodium (salt) in baking soda will not raise your blood pressure. Elevation of blood pressure is associated with table salt (sodium chloride). Chloride is derived from chlorine. Only recently has it been realized it is the chloride and not the sodium that raises blood pressure. Sea salt and table salt are mostly sodium chloride. Most salt substitutes provide potassium chloride, which could also be problematic. Mrs. Dash is a chloride-free salt substitute.

A lot of people, especially folks with poor vision or arthritis, have difficulty serving up the right dose of baking soda (1/2 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate). For folks who can’t stand the salty taste or have difficulty holding a spoon and don’t want to overdose, I had some convenient 1 gram sodium bicarbonate capsules bottled and they are dirt cheap. Happy bicarbing.    

KNOW YOUR LIVER: WHAT IT DOES & WHERE IT'S LOCATED

CAFFEINE REDUCES A WOMAN'S FERTILITY

Yep.  Whether it's in the form of cola, chocolate, coffee or tea, caffeine reduces a woman's fertility.  

Okay, but by how much?  In other words, how much caffeine does one have to consume to see a drop in a woman's fecundity?  And what is the percentage in reduction of a woman's fertility?

Some forms of caffeine I can't live without.  I could if they were killing me, but anything less than that, no, I could not live without them.  Those forms?  Coffee and chocolate.  As for coffee, I love it hot and black.  And I am always on the lookout for the benefits, the risks, and the unknowns of coffee.  The other is chocolate, 85% dark is best.  One unknown of coffee that became less so to me yesterday was the fact that caffeine reduces fertility in women.  Whoa!  I'd never heard that before.  But apparently, it has no effect on male fertility.  Go figure.  
The finding is an old one, 1989, in fact.  

104 healthy women who had been attempting to become pregnant for three months were interviewed about their use of caffeinated beverages, alcohol, and cigarettes. In their subsequent cycles, women who consumed more than the equivalent of one cup of coffee per day were half as likely to become pregnant, per cycle, as women who drank less. A dose-response effect was present.

What's interesting is that these effects were discovered among competing products--alcohol and cigarette smoking--that I would have thought had detrimental effects on fertility.  It is just interesting to see how certain products never get questioned and thus become legitimized as healthy or sociable.  And so we render their effects on our bodies and mind as innocuous.  But make no mistake, there is a war on out there, and the main theater of this battle is your body.  

So if you're trying to get pregnant, ixnay on the coffee, eh.  But not just coffee per se but caffeine.  That means cola too, green tea, you know, that healthy drink.  And probably the most painful form of caffeine that you'll need to jettison is chocolate.  O, say it isn't so.  Well, if' you're trying to get pregnant, ixnay, on the Cadbury, eh.  

So we should qualify some terms.  When the report says that caffeine reduces female fertility, what exactly does that mean?  In other words, reduces it by how much?  And how much coffee produced this effect? According to the study, it's 50%.  So if you do drink coffee and you want to get pregnant, it means that you'll have to work twice as hard at getting pregnant.  Hmm.  Maybe there is an upside to drinking coffee while trying to get pregnant. 

Fecundability of 104 healthy women attempting to become pregnant was halved by consumption of the equivalent of 1 cup of brewed coffee or more daily. 

What I found interesting is that whereas caffeine interfered with pregnancy, analgesics, alcohol, marijuana, weight (like in being over or underweight), or the husband's caffeine consumption had no influence on fecundity.  

Those consuming over 3150 mg caffeine per month, the median, were considered in the high consumption group, and those consuming less the low group. Fecundability, the probability of becoming clinically pregnant in a given menstrual cycle, when expressed as a ratio, averaged 0.59 over the 3rd to 8th cycle, and 0.53 after 6 more months in the high consumption group. Multivariate analysis, controlling for age, the frequency of intercourse, and age at menarche, found no effect for these variables, nor for smoking, vitamins, analgesics, alcohol, marijuana, weight, height, or husband's caffeine consumption. 

Disappointing is the fact that the study was unable to discover how caffeine disrupts fertility.  "The mechanism of action of caffeine on fecundability is unknown."

One piece of good news that came out of the study is that caffeine is NOT a carcinogen.  That is good news and one less thing that you have to worry about if you do drink coffee.  

Evaluation: There is inadequate evidence for the carcinogenicity in humans of caffeine. There is inadequate evidence for the carcinogenicity in experimental animals of caffeine. Overall evaluation: Caffeine is not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans (Group 3).

NIACIN DILATES BLOOD VESSELS & IMPROVES CIRCULATION TO AREAS STARVED OF OXYGEN & NUTRIENTS

First, a little background on Niacin.  Niacin is vitamin B3.

Niacin (or nicotinic acid) is another name for vitamin B3, which is 1 of 8 B vitamins needed by the body to break down fats and proteins and to convert carbohydrates into energy. There are two other forms of niacin, nicotinamide (or niacinamide) and inositol hexanicotinate, which serve as sources of vitamin B3. This is why they can be referred to as "niacin." What many people fail to realize, however, is that these forms of niacin do not work in the same way as niacin.

from Dr. David Williamson on "The Many Benefits of Niacin"

PLAIN NIACIN IS AMAZING

Niacin (or nicotinic acid as it’s referred to in medical circles) was the third B vitamin to be discovered (hence the name B3). It wasn’t until about 1943, though, that a couple of doctors reported that niacin worked wonders in relieving the pain and stiffness associated with arthritis. Unfortunately, their research was never well publicized, since that was around the time that drug companies were promoting their own miracle “cure” for arthritis—cortisone.

Niacin has a unique characteristic. If you haven’t experienced it personally, you’ve probably heard about the “flush” niacin can cause. As little as 50 mg of niacin can cause a flush in some people. While not dangerous, it can be uncomfortable, or even alarming, if you aren’t prepared for it. (Personally, I somewhat enjoy the sensation.)

Niacin causes the blood vessels to dilate or open up near the skin, which results in a hot, tingling sensation accompanied by a red flushing of the skin. Generally, by starting with low amounts of niacin (50 to 100 mg a day) and gradually increasing the dosage, a person can quickly build up a tolerance and avoid the flush. Taking niacin immediately following a meal will also lessen the flushing sensation. (Niacinamide, the alkaline form of niacin, doesn’t cause flushing and it works just as well for most things.)

Since niacin isn’t something that drug companies can patent, it’s of little interest to them. But whatever you do, don’t overlook niacin’s potential just because it’s been around so long, or because it sounds like too simple of a solution.

Keep in mind that all of the B vitamins actually work in conjunction with each other—which means you can expect better results if you take niacin or niacinamide along with a good multivitamin that contains a broad balance of B vitamins.

ARTHRITIS

Several researchers have reported excellent results in arthritic patients using niacinamide. While niacin opens up the blood vessels near the surface and causes a flushing sensation, niacinamide only opens up the deep blood vessels like those surrounding the joints.

In cases of moderate arthritis, outstanding results have been produced by taking 1,000 to 1,500 mg a day. In more severe cases, as much as 3,000 mg to 4,000 mg have been recommended. In all instances, here and in the recommendations listed below, the dosage should be divided into five or six doses spread throughout the day rather than all at once. It should also be taken with the knowledge and supervision of your nutritionally oriented doctor.

CHOLESTEROL & TRIGLYCERIDES

One of the most effective and least expensive ways to lower blood lipids (cholesterol and triglycerides) is to take 1,000 to 3,000 mg of niacin a day.

Patients using 1,000 mg the first day, 2,000 mg the second day, and 3,000 mg each day thereafter have seen as much as a 25 percent reduction in cholesterol levels, and a 50 percent reduction in triglycerides. (Blood lipid reduction is one case where niacinamide is not as effective as niacin.)

REVERSING HEART DISEASE

Heart patients on niacin treatment had less illness and lower death rates after five years when contrasted to those not using niacin. An even more astounding study revealed that niacin treatment actually reversed signs of heart disease in patients who had genetically related cholesterol problems.

Niacin lowers cholesterol and triglycerides. It reduces the blood fats called “very low-density lipoproteins,” which have been linked to heart disease and cancer. It improves the blood sugar problems that can lead to damage to the arterial walls. It dilates blood vessels, which improves the circulation to areas starved of oxygen and nutrients. The list of benefits goes on and on—and if that wasn’t enough, the stuff is dirt cheap.

Finish reading.  It gets better.  And then buy some Niacin.  This may be the best medicine for the price.  The cost/benefit ratio is in your favor.
