Intestinal Flora
Not all bacteria is bad. Bacteria is
needed to assist the breakdown of food into nutrients the body
can use. The lower intestine contains both friendly and putrefactive
bacteria. In a healthy person, 85% of the bacteria should be
friendly and only 15% putrefactive; however, for an enormous
number of people living the affluent dream, these ratios are
reversed.
Most cancer patients eventually
become aware of the fact that poor eating habits and inefficient
metabolism and elimination have aggravated the tendency towards
cancer. Some become obsessed with internal hygiene. Without
good probiotics, some people will not achieve the goal they
seek.
Intestinal Flora
Flora may need to be supplemented.
Most producers claim their products are best. While I agree
that there is a possibility that some probiotics are better
than others, this is an area where I feel brand loyalty is
ill-advised. Buy small jars and change brands each time you
run lowand use the products fast as the friendly flora
does not really have in indefinite life expectancy. Regardless
of what it says on the bottle, many products have virtually
no shelf life at all. For a quick start, I feel Eugalan is
the best, but then switch to something else.
A word to the wise:
Avoid chlorine because it knocks out the
intestinal flora. Use distilled or filtered water, not
chlorinated water, not even in restaurants. To restore
the vitality of water, you can ozonate it and/or add a
very small amount of sea salt, natural trace minerals,
or Willard Water to the purified water. You can also take
heart from the fabulous work of Dr. Emoto and pray for
the water or play music for it.
Another hint:
Take turmeric internally because it supports
repopulation of friendly bacteria. Besides, it has great
anti-cancer properties, amazing anti-oxidant action, and
it removes most of the cancer odor that is so distressing
to some patients.
The label on Nature's Answer Black Walnut
states that it promotes "healthy flora levels." I
suspect they have researched this, but for met was a new
use of black walnut. Since Black Walnut is also anti-parasitic,
this could be a way to achieve two ends with one herb.
Proper elimination should be easy: effortless
and almost odorless. Odor is a sign of putrefaction and imbalance
between the putrefactive and friendly bacteria in the colon.
If there is adequate friendly flora in the system, odor will
be minimal.
Waste products should be bound together in
one bundle that floats in the water in the toilet bowl. This
means that the gases have been bound into the eliminations
rather than retained in the colon. When there is less flatulence,
there is less dryness in the colon, less impaction, and less
blocking of the walls of the colon in a manner that prevent
assimilation of nutrients.
I strongly recommend that everyone, patient
or not, strive for this level of colon function. We carry intestinal
flora, colon cleansers, and intestinal tonifiers that many
will find helpful. Once the flora is established, it usually
maintains itself unless destroyed by chlorine (in drinking
water), antibiotics, or diarrhea.
In the meantime, people may want to order Eugalan to
help build intestinal flora and turmeric, the spice that gives
curry powder its yellow color, to help maintain flora balance.
Finally, some people may really need a good parasite program,
but just because some practitioners have linked cancer to parasites does
not mean that everyone has parasites. Anti-parasite programs
are sometimes challenging. If they aren't necessary, don't
do one. However, you may need to have a number of tests done
before discovering whether or not they might be important to
your health.
The
single most important simple and safe action patients
can take is to restore normal function to the lower intestine.
Years of sticky sweet carbohydrates have tended to cause
clogging in the lower intestine. On my Kitchen
Doctor tapes, I discuss this thoroughly. The average
person has about forty pounds of plaster in the colon.
Moreover, these same individuals have a poor population
of friendly bacteria and too much putrefactive bacteria
in the colon. |

people who are trying to restore intestinal flora. Especially
recommended for those with diarrhea.
