Alternative Medicine/Immune deficiency
Expert: Imran R. - 6/20/2006
QuestionHi Imran,
Thanks for the time you put into answering questions on this site. The information is right in line with my search and uses of alternative & homopatheic remedies.
I have Primary Immune disorder, specifically an
IGG antibody deficiency. I been really sick most
of my life, since birth. They did not diagnose my official label until blood work at age 35.
By age 35 have had pneumonia, antiotics completley shut down my system and no longer helped. My eyelashes fell out. My body was
diagnosed with Chronic fatique & Fibromyalgia.
They told me I needed IVIG(blood infusions) once
a month for the rest of my life to fight disease.
My body was not capable of make the IGG antibodies. I did do the transfusions for 3 months and realized it was not the appropriate path. I began a long search into alternative, accupuncture, bioenergetic medicine, essential oils, homopatheic ect... For about two years, I have taken no prescription drugs for my ailment.
I limit sugar. I am concientious of yeast and it is a constanct battle. I do not eat dairy.
I drink Young living Wolfberry juice daily. I take Chloryphyll , CoQ10, Magneisum, Vitamin C,
Quality Multivitamins, Top of the line Probiotic,
Reishi mushroom supplements, I take DNR oxygenated, energized & charged water products. I drink South African roobia tea with Ganoderma regularly. Spring water to drink. No Caffiene.
I exercise moderately about 3 to 5 days a week.
I do not mediate regularly, but exercise faith.
Periodically, I take Natures sunshine LBS II to
help waste elimination and Juva Tone choline for
liver function. (Young living products) As for Electro Magnetic Wave protection, I limit cell phone use and wear a Q-link that uses Sympatheic Resonance Technology for protection.
I use safe products from Melaleuca for cleaning
at home. (Tea tree oil ect) I run a diffuser using, lavender essenial oils, theives ect.. I use only Young
living oils. I have an hepa air filter in my
bedroom. I use a chlorine filter on my shower water.
As far as negative health habits, the only one
that I engage in regularly is Red Wine. Maybe
a Margarita or two a week.
With this exhaustive list, my antibody blood count is continuing to decrease. I am physically
exhaused to the point where I sleep 12 hours nightly and take an hour nap daily. My body aches. I am constantly battling a bacteria and viral infection that will not leave my body.
I did do chiropractic/bioenergetic medicine for
that about one year and it was only able to rid
of the parasites. In my constant battle, I am
raising two young boys and need my strength and
energy back. My lungs are scarred and breathing is impaired, but not too bad. If you have any advice or suggestions on things that I don't need to be doing or that I do need to add to my regimen.
Please let me know. I want to have energy and
stop fighting infections. Thanks in advance for
your time in reading my issues.
May God Bless You,
Angie Field
AnswerDear Angie,
Thank you for your question. Gosh, you have gone through a lot. I really sympathize with you. Sometimes the most difficult things to deal with in life are illnesses. I completely understand your situation.
Angie i am familiar with all the therapies you are using and i can see where they have failed you. However i commend your great effort on look into the alternative, it is the right thing to do. God created these physical organisms of ours not science. Our bodies are organic living machines. We need to look to mother nature as you have done to heal ourselves not to artificial and synthetic lab creations.
First i must start with advising you a little on diet, if you have read any of my previous posting you know i always advise one stops using soy products.
Please cut out all soy products except fermented soy. Miso, tempeh and soy-sauce are good. [fermented]
Raw soy itself 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 be careful of soy.
Next, please make sure you avoid all artificial sweeteners:
splenda, sucralose, aspartame, nutra-sweet, equal, acesulfame potassium.
Splenda/sucralose have become very popular these days but 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.
Wine is okay to drink now and then, margaritas should be cut out completely!
Next, faith is extremely important. You do not need to meditate much, as faith transcend everything. Take time though if you can to be in nature or to get away whenever you can even for a short while. This will give you a break from daily routine.
One is able to connect with the divine simply by praying with an open heart and knowing God hears you and sees you and is very close to you. This makes communication much easier.
One does not need to have a religion to pray to God. God or the divine is with us in our hearts every single moment, belief does not have to play a role here. Talking to God is prayer. That is all. So talk to God and ask for help sincerely and openly, one must open one's heart. We must understand God is within us protecting and upholding us in every breath we take inwards, and every breath we release, God is right there with us. Let us remind ourselves to remember this through the day. We only need to open that door and relate correctly with our inner divine part, just by praying daily in our own words, and several times a day, that is all. Do this everyday. The benefits are immeasurable.
I will advise you on supplementation now.
The supplements you are taking are not actually addressing the chronic immune deficiency you have struggled with all this time. What you need in your case is an advanced immuno-modulator to bring to life your immune system, reverse the auto-immunity and restore proper and correct functionality. This will address all immune related dysfunctions no matter what they are.
Please look into purchasing a product called "transfer factor advanced formula".
Website: www.trinity.my4life.com
Research on this natural product is found here:
www.transferfactorinstitute.com
I would like you to start with only 1 capsule daily before breakfast of the transfer factor for the first 5 days. Get onto 2 capsules for the 5 days following that. Onto 3 capsules after that, again for 5 days, and then finally onto 4 per day. 2 capsules twice per day. Continue with 4 capsules.
This will gradually raise and balance your immune functions over a short period of time.
You will feel your immune system coming back to life once more.
Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia are also immune related illnesses, I myself suffered with CFS years ago. I reversed it completely by using transfer factor together with some very high quality nutrition. Today CFS is non-existent for me.
High quality nutrition comes in the form of 3 plants from the Amazon. This is the formula i personally take:
www.tryfrutavida.com/main
I very highly recommend you look into this. Use it in combination with transfer factor.
The supplement contains; amino acids, antioxidants,
biotin, omega fatty acids, polyphenols, minerals, leucine, vitamins, saponins... etc.
These are beneficial to; brain, internal energy, heart, hormonal system, blood, adrenals, circulation, immune system, kidney, liver, nervous system, pancreas.
I have yet to find a nutritional supplement to match it.
The wolf berry juice is good. It is not nearly as powerful though in terms of anti-oxidant value as the Acai contained in the above formula.
I can confidently advise that you will only need these two therapies to begin with. You may not need anything else. Your body will respond with positive results with only these two therapies because you are firstly targeting the main problem; the immune system, number two you are providing very high nutritional value to your cells and organs as well as balancing your hormonal and nervous system. This is very important.
My honest opinion is that you will not need the goji or wolfberry juice anymore.
Further more please stop taking reishi mushroom immediately, supplement such as these are only beneficial in stimulating immune-functions. When we stimulate an already imbalanced immune system we are only adding to the problem, therefore in this case your antibody count continues to decline instead of normalize. Immune stimulation is not advisable here.
You will not need the CoQ10 or magnesium anymore. Multivitamins and vitamin C will not be needed as the frutavida supplement will provide all this in liquid form.
You can continue with probiotics. I am assuming you are taking the i-flora from sedona labs? These are good.
Chlorophyll is very useful to rebuild the blood. However it depends what the source is. Sun-Chlorella is what i advise if one takes chlorophyll, do not take any other type of chlorella or chlorophyll product. Sun chlorella is by far the most superior.
I would start with the transfer factor first, add the fruta-vida nutrient to that, then after a month or two begin with sun chlorella. That's all.
If you are taking products to detoxify your body, please continue. They will help. However, slow is the best process. Too much detoxification too fast can become very uncomfortable.
The energized water you are taking is good. If i may suggest something, you could save some money by purchasing a tesla purple plate from: www.purpleplates.com
You can ask for Karina, or email her here for more info: autumnsong@rcn.com
The tesla plates give off tachyons and placed under a water dispenser they will not only energize and soften the water but also structure it. So this could save you some money as the plates last permanently. Purchase the large plate in this case.
I am glad you are using the q-link as EM radiation is very dangerous over long term exposure. However, i thought i would let you know there is a similar device that does much more and is more powerful, and more balancing than the q-link. It is called the life force pendant. Their products are very worth looking into as in this field of bio-energetics they are the leader.
Available here: www.safespace.net.tf
This device accomplishes much more than EM field protection. It balances both the emotional and mental states, as well as working to help the physical body reach a state of bio-magnetic balance and health which then translates into the physical form. The website will not give the actual detailed study and descriptions on the pendant, but i can email them to you via word document if you wish. Contact me here: second-sun@shaw.ca
Continue to use your shower filter,it is a good idea to do so. When the filters have run out you might want to look at the holographic strips made by safe-space. You can wrap one round your incoming water supply to treat and balance all water available in your home. They last permanently. This might save you some money as well long term.
Lastly your breathing will improve and scars will disappear with use of the transfer factor and frutavida.
These two supplements will do a great good for you.
Angie, have much faith in yourself, in your own body and in the Divine light that lives within you. Have much faith, for with all these forces working for you, divine and natural, your body will heal. Trust in God. Trust completely. You know, sometimes we as humans have no choice but to put our complete trust in someone or something. I have seen miracles brought forth by faith alone. You have the right therapies and divine help and guidance to heal you. You will be okay Angie. You will heal, physically and emotionally, and one day soon the pain and battles you have had to face will only be a memory, a faded dream, that is all. Life will be new again.
Please be strong in yourself, as strong as you can be for divine love is unfailing. You will make it through all of this and be renewed and healthy once more. You are on your way there already. Please be strong, have much faith and never give up.
With best wishes,
Imran
