Alternative Medicine/Graves, candida, allergies, acne, eczema
Expert: Imran R. - 8/29/2006
QuestionThanks for this site. I am suffering from acne, candida, allergies, eczema, and Grave's disease in that order. Improved some with accupuncture, Chinese herbs, methimazole and toprol. Kolorex (horopito and anise seed) worked great on all symptoms for only 2 weeks. Now works best topically for acne. Currently on Threelac since last week. Supplements taken in past: iron, folic acid, aloe juice,B6,B12,Omega 3,Acidophilus,Total Immune Booster, Oxygen Elements Plus and multivitamins. Chinese Herbs worked for a few months and stopped. Since treatment began in December experienced weight gain. 30 years old, 2-1/2 year old son, married, stressed, engineer,lacto-vegetarian. Sensitive to many foods and beauty products. What do you think? Thanks.
AnswerDear Kim,
Thank you for your letter.
I will give you a full and detailed protocol to reverse these illnesses and normalize your physiological condition.
Let us begin with diet, please follow the below recommendations:
Cut out all soy products, except fermented soy. Miso, tempeh and soy-sauce are healthy. [fermented]
Soy contains goitrogens which depress thyroid function. It also contains phytic acid which hinders the bodies' ability to absorb proteins, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc. In general it is an enzyme inhibitor.
Please make sure you avoid all artificial sweeteners:
splenda, sucralose, aspartame, nutra-sweet, equal, acesulfame potassium.
Splenda/sucralose have become very popular these days and are just as bad if not worse than aspartame. These sweeteners are very toxic and are found in store bought vitamins, protein powders, anything sugar-free, gum, chocolate, soda... etc. Please read labels carefully and cut out all artificial sweeteners. This is very important.
Soy and artificial sweeteners both weaken the immune system. And the immune system is one of the keys to healing any illness.
Cut out all margarine and hydrogenated fats. Cut out canola, rapeseed and soybean oils. These are very unhealthy. Replace with butter, ghee, unrefined coconut oil, sesame oil, and virgin olive oil.
7 glasses of water per day is a good idea to help flush out toxins from the body. Warm or room temperature water, never cold. Never drink tap water. It must be filtered.
Avoid drinking distilled water. It leads to mineral depletion and hair loss.
Let us address graves disease:
It is an auto-immune illness. Immune functions attack the thyroid, causing an over production of thyroxine.
We need to down regulate and re-educate your immune system once more so that it recognizes that it is not supposed to be attacking the thyroid. When this is accomplished, the thyroid returns to normal function.
Use a product called "transfer factor-classic".
See Website:
http://trinity.my4life.com
Take 3 per day to begin with for the first 3 weeks. On the third week increase to 6 per day. Continue with 6 until your body heals itself. This will address all the allergies and eczema also.
Do not take iron. Iron overloads cause more complications in the long term. Discontinue the aloe juice and immune booster. Boosting immune functions will cause them to more aggressively attack the thyroid. We need modulation and balance here, not stimulation, therefore take transfer factor instead.
Cut out the multivitamins. Replace with fruta-vida. Synthetic vitamins cause more problems than they are good for. They also tend to increase immune imbalances and allergies because they contain synthetic sweeteners like aspartame and splenda/sucralose.
Fruta-vida is a wonderful natural juice. An extract of 3 amazon plants. This is not like xango, mangosteen, goji berry or noni. It is truly a much superior supplement. (and costs about the same) It is a super-food. This product will help detoxify your colon and liver slowly. It will help balance your hormonal, thyroidal, and nervous functions. Will also provide all the minerals and vitamins you need. On this supplement, you will experience some weight loss as it strengthens metabolism. Your body will absorb these nutrients and use them accordingly. The body knows how much weight should be lost, so allow it to do what it needs to do. It may happen slowly or quickly, depends on what the body needs. The body's inherent intelligence knows how to heal itself when the right building blocks are provided.

As for beauty products, there are those that are available that have natural ingredients, use those not the conventional ones found at stores.
Acidophilus is a good idea, please continue. But the type/brand matters very much. Use only primal defence made by garden of life. Do not use other acidophilus supplements. Primal defence is superior, 14 different strains including HSO's.
If you cannot find it at your local health store i will send you a link from where to purchase.
To get rid of acne fast, when you begin this protocol you can apply fruta-vida to the affected areas every night before bed. Rub it in gently. Or you can make a paste of the primal defence using water, and apply that. These will work effectively.
Aspartame has been associated with causing graves as well. Make sure you do not take any artificial sweeteners, please make it a habit to read labels on everything you purchase.
Finally, you should do some research on the dangers of electro-magnetic radiation. All appliances, electronic devices, give off radiation. People often have work environments where they are surrounded by computers, printers, scanners, hubs... etc. People also use cell phones a lot these days, are subjected to radiation from cell phone towers which often spread for kilometres, power stations, power lines... etc. All these are very harmful to human (and animal) health.
EM Radiation degrades the immune system, hormones, nervous system, heart rate, brain functions, cell and DNA health, the list goes on.
You need to look to your own environment and judge whether you feel you are affected by radiation or not.
In the past, in my own case, i was. My health was being degraded by my home office work station, and a near by cell phone tower.
The solution was to neutralize all of this radiation. Therefore extensive research into this began. And i found the technologies available at the safe space company to be the most advanced and effective in accomplishing this. They solved the problem for me.
See website: www.safespace.net.tf
If you feel you need these products, you would wear the 'environmental protection card' as well as place a 'safe-space-1' in your environment. These will respectively shield your body/environment against all harmful energies.
The safe-space-1 will neutralize all forms of radiation in your office or home, and the card will protect your body/mind wherever you go as you will be wearing it. These technologies have made my own life much easier.
This concludes the protocol.
Please email me if you have any other questions at all.
I wish you much success with your health.
