====================================
The answers to questions submitted to me each week come from my 20+ years as a Medical Office Nurse along with many years and ongoing education in nutritional and alternative treatment modes. Add that to many years of friendship with Dr. Wayne Garland, a very knowledgeable naturopath and herbologist, who many years ago, beat his cancer death sentence given by the traditional medical world, has helped along the alternatives path and hopefully help to give hope to those who need it... Also receiving a lot of study reports and try to ascertain if they are good or bad then report them to you, which has increased my knowledge along the way and I pass them on to you to use or not...

I am not a doctor or dentist and you should not think of me as one!! My years observing life and health of the many people/patients around me and the contradictions of the traditional medical world's idea of treating - prescription domino effect - while watching those same schooled methods that aren't relieving illness but creating far more than they help. Those same medical professionals aren't telling people how to get healthy or how to prevent illness, which led me to look for something to change that premise for myself and those around me. In looking outside the Westernized medical profession I found and continue to find alternatives that really work to create health and longevity -when adhered to - beyond anything the traditional medical world can do...

QUESTION:
 
Hi Lena,
 
My father, who reads you all the time, has heart problems but seems to be doing okay on his medications except his legs are swollen and beginning to become kind of purplish up to the knees.  Do you have any herbal products that would help cure this?
We would very much appreciate any suggestions you may have.
 
Thank You,
Shawn Marie
 
 
ANSWER:
 
Hi Shawn,

You don't say how old your father is but that really won't make a difference as the same solution would apply at any age... You also don't say exactly what medications he is taking but I'm sure they are many!
 
What you describe is where my 87 year old father was when he came to visit me five years ago and I was able to change things for him and within days had his painful, swollen, purple, plasma draining legs pink and normal then with the great energy and vigor that came with it he said he felt like he was 18 years old again... He is going to celebrate his 92nd birthday next month.

Cure is a strong word but correction is possible... Although cure can happen with time and diligence... that particular problem started with his heart, blood thinning, blood pressure and cholesterol prescription medications, which I assume he is taking as one or more of those medications create swollen (edema) in the lower to upper extremities. All or any one of those medications create a really severe mineral imbalance and then add to that the fact that they also slow the circulation to a drip so that the plasma cannot get back up to the heart to recirculate and clean the blood. If history repeats itself he will undoubtedly, if he hasn't already been informed he will be told he'll need to have a bypass sometime from 1 to 5 years. That invariably follow taking after starting those medications and the legs get in that shape, due to a fluid buildup and the lack of circulation...

My dad was on 8 medications for his heart (he didn't listen to me prior to that visit, he had an irregular heart beat and was told that was okay at his age), diabetes, blood pressure, stomach problems and supposedly elevated cholesterol... The irregular heart beat was caused by a severe mineral imbalance and was corrected by simply taking a complete 84 mineral and trace mineral formula. I got him off the medications and onto all herbal and minerals and his doctor reluctantly tracks his progress with blood tests and exam every 3 months. She is totally flabbergasted that I was able to do that for him as he had been getting worse over the last two years she was seeing him... She doesn't say anything good or bad about it though... Silence is golden, so they say... His blood sugars have been normal since day 3, his erratic heart beat stopped immediately and his getting up numerous times at night to go to the bathroom ceased. His blood pressure has been normal since day 3.

If your dad is willing to take the risk and go the natural healing route here is what he can do to make the change...

Slowly decrease his medications by 1/2 at the same time he starts taking 1/2 teaspoon Life Transfusion Liquid minerals 3X a day, along with Circulatory Support Formula - a host of herbs and nutrients to balance out the heart beats - 2 capsules three times a day for three days then decrease to 2 capsules twice a day thereafter. Nattokinase to clean those arteries opening them for better circulation 2 morning and evening... 1 Thyroid Energy Capsule morning and evening on an empty stomach for one month... The thyroid is the gateway to the body and I haven't seen an ill person yet who doesn't have a compromised thyroid that needs help...

I also gave my father Mind Power - to improve his brain health and Vision Support to help his eyes as anyone so severely imbalanced has eyes problems along with the rest of their health issues. I'm not sure your dad will need those if he has no eye issues, but can be added later if he should...

If he decides to go with the changes to his medications he will need to call me every other day when he first starts so the doctor can follow his progress and make changes if needed... Now he will experience some very loose to possible diarrhea type stools until his system is detoxed and drugs removed. For some it only happens for a few days where others have taken a couple to three months. Those very loose stools will depend on how toxic his body is and whether he eats a lot of fats and/or sugars daily... To prevent that from lasing longer he can do the 7-day cleansing diet and it will speed detoxing and healing his organs as well...

If he reads me so faithfully I suspect he doesn't know how to tell his doctor that it's his body and he will put into it what he feels is best, so he may not be able to really do what is best for him... It is hard for most people to just give up their medications and buck the medical system, as we have been so brain washed to believe that their drugs are necessary and the only answer to a health problem... Of course the drug industry teaches our doctors that fallacy and they in turn pass it on to their patients because they don't know better...

Good luck with him...
Lena

Making door handles, taps and light switches from copper could help defeat antibiotic-resistant superbugs, according to scientists.

A study has found that copper fittings rapidly killed bugs on hospital wards, succeeding where other infection control measures failed. It is believed that the metal 'suffocates' germs, preventing them from breathing. It may also stop them from feeding, and destroy their DNA.

Lab tests show that the metal kills off the deadly MRSA and C difficile superbugs. It also kills other dangerous germs, including the flu virus and the E coli food poisoning bug.

During the ten-week trial on a medical ward, a set of taps, a lavatory seat and a push plate on an entrance door were replaced with copper versions. The copper items had up to 95 percent fewer bugs on their surface than non-copper versions whenever they were tested.

HOOKED ON GIVING

Dr. Mar Aprem of the ancient Chaldean Orthodox Church of the East in India tells a funny story about when a member of the church won a lottery worth 100,000 rupees. His wife went to the bishop and told him that she was afraid to tell this glad news to her husband because he had a heart problem and any sudden excitement could cause a heart attack.

The bishop offered to break the news gently to her husband. He visited the house and asked the man, "Wouldn't it be a good thing if you won 1,000 rupees in the lottery?" The man replied that he still would have to work to support his family.

"What about 10,000 rupees?" the bishop asked. The man still showed no excitement, so the bishop carefully raised the amount to 50,000 and finally to 100,000 rupees.

"If I got 100,000 rupees, I would give half of it to you, your Excellency," the man replied.

The bishop had a heart attack, and the man called an ambulance.

We can get excited about winning and getting. But have you learned how fun it is to give -- and not only money? Engineering and machinery genius R. G. LeTourneau (1888 - 1969) discovered the great joy that can come of generosity. Besides establishing a private school (today's LeTourneau University), that remarkable man reportedly gave 90 percent of his income to worthwhile causes, while living on the remaining 10 percent. He became hooked on giving!

And like I said, money is not the only commodity that is fun to give. We can give time, we can give our expertise, we can give our love or simply give a smile. What does that cost? The point is, none of us can ever run out of something worthwhile to give.

Giving is fun. And addictive.
