This is a detailed, comprehensive explanation of how to use nutrition to heal cancer in 6 to 8 weeks. And to prevent it always.

Please take the time to read the entire post carefully. It is grounded in the premise that since nutrition is what built your body, nutrition is what will heal it as well.

This treatment is non-invasive and affordable. There are no hospital visits, no medical appointments, no hair loss, no vomiting, no pain, no fear, no anger, no depression, no sadness, no uncertainty, and no pity because no one has to know unless they live with you.

It could someday save your life or that of someone you love, so please pay close attention to what you read.

____________

Cancer is best approached through mathematics, because it is all about numbers. The number of free radicals in the body versus the number of antioxidant cells available to stop their growth.

Simply put, cancer begins and flourishes due to excessive free radical growth.

The formula for the state of cancer
FRG > X + (O + I)

Where cancer equals Free Radical Growth greater than X, with X being the amount of free radicals an individual can tolerate and remain healthy, plus Oxygenation and Inflammation.

The formula for curing and preventing any cancer
Ai > FRG

Where the amount of Antioxidant intake is greater than Free Radical Growth, sustained over time.

Few diseases are as frightening as a diagnosis of cancer. It barges into your life and takes over. Most people have some connection to this terrible, unnecessary disease. Either through their own experience or that of a loved one.

Some spend the greater part of their lives dueling with cancer, trying to stay alive while it stalks them repeatedly, and too often wins. This happens because they never get control of free radical growth in their bodies.

But first, a startling fact to make your head spin: All cancers are the same, no matter where they begin or to where in the body they migrate, because they are all born of free radicals.

By that I mean liver cancer is no different than brain, pancreas, ovarian, blood, glandular, prostate, breast, skin, or that in any other body part.

The internal process of the disease’s residency is the same for all of the so-called different “types.” Meaning all of these cancers begin and progress along the same continuum.

Let’s be clear, I’m not talking about cancer’s physical manifestations:

I’m talking about the way cancer actually grows inside your body—its life phase

Current medical treatments are surgery alone, surgery with chemotherapy, or chemotherapy with radiation.

I am suggesting nutrition—specifically, food supplements—as a less draconian and more effective alternative. A universal cure encompassing all cancers.

I say again, nutrition constructed your body and nutrition will heal it.

You might be thinking, but what if she’s wrong? I could waste time on nutrition and not have enough left to use one of the medical options, until it’s too late.

Forget for the moment everything you think you know about cancer, and use your own brain to sort out what I’m proposing.

All you need to get it right is logic and thought, not a medical degree.

_____________________________________________________

A Note on Animal Subjects: I have only seen this treatment eliminate cancer in cats and dogs, but it will work in any mammal, according to the mathematics.

I also see no reason why it wouldn’t work on other species as well. Birds, fish, reptiles and so forth.

Perhaps even slow down the progress of decay in plant matter, like a peach left on a counter for two weeks in the summer. Free radicals are what cause the peach to decay. To die.

And why not? If something is alive in an oxygen atmosphere, it will produce free radicals in the process of simply living. It’s the physics of life on planet Earth.

___________________________________________________________

HOW IT ALL BEGINS

Cancer starts with free radicals, progresses to oxygenation, then explodes into inflammation, which is the last stop before cancer.

Once inflammation is reached, any disease in the inflammatory category is possible. Cancer just happens to be the worst of them, but they will all respond to this treatment.

HOW INFLAMMATION ARISES

All inflammation begins with Free radicals, which can occur for an array of reasons, both internal and external:

Cigarette smoke, excessive alcohol use, air pollution, injury, exercise, anxiety, making love, industrial chemicals, stress, X-rays or radiation. Even digesting a meal creates free radicals. There is no way to avoid them if you are alive.

The body is built to withstand a certain amount of free radicals, but when that ceiling is exceeded and too many of them are gathered in one area, oxygenation begins in that area.

Oxygenation is a process of aging—decaying—caused by Earth’s oxygen atmosphere acting on all biologics. What you would see with that peach left on the counter. Or live to be 80 and look in any mirror. The aging you see is a by-product of oxygenation.

Once oxygenation reaches a critical level of decay, the body responds with Inflammation.

_____________________________________________________________

Free Radicals → Oxygenation → Inflammation → Cancer

_____________________________________________________________

FREE RADICALS ARE CREATED AT A CELLULAR LEVEL

Let’s say, you bang your arm carrying groceries into the kitchen. The bruise that appears later is a sign of damaged cells.

When a cell is damaged for any reason the outer cellular wall is broken, which permits the two electrons inside to leak out. As soon as the electrons escape their cell, they separate and become single electrons, also known as free radicals.

That’s what a free radical is—a single electron that has slipped through its damaged cell’s broken wall, and lost its partner electron.

Free radical/single electrons are highly unstable. Once they leave their damaged cell they attack nearby healthy cells, seeking an electron to partner with, though that is impossible.

As an analogy, think of someone who was just dumped by the love of their life. They’re mad as hell and immediately begin looking for a new partner. If they can’t find another single they aggressively steal away someone else’s partner for themselves. Being alone is not an option.

On its own, a free radical/single electron cannot unite with another free radical/single electron and become a stable pair again.

All they can do is damage nearby healthy cells, and turn newly escaped electrons into more unstable free radicals who then attack other healthy cells. Therein lies the roots of cancer growth.

This process ultimately leads to oxygenation, inflammation, and inflammatory illness, unless you do something to stop it.

WHY BETA CAROTENE HEALS INFLAMMATION LIKE THAT CAUSING CANCER

For some reason it appears that beta carotene cells seek out free radical/single electrons so they can engage them in a unique ritual. A sort of combat and surrender.

When a roaming free radical/single electron encounters a beta carotene cell, it attacks it the same way it attacks healthy cells in your body, with one exception.

When a beta carotene cell wall is broken by an attacking free radical/single electron, and the beta carotene’s two electrons leak out, they separate but do not become unstable.

A beta carotene single electron does not turn into a free radical, and it will not attack healthy cells. This underlying fact is what gives beta carotene its miraculous healing powers.

Instead, each beta carotene single electron offers itself to the attacking free radical/single electron and willingly joins with it, returning it to a healthy non-cancerous state by becoming its partner electron.

That means, each beta carotene cell—with its two stable electrons—is capable of converting and thereby eliminating two free radical/single electrons. The end result is two healthy rehabilitated non-cancerous cells.

This process is carried out one cell at a time, which is why you need high doses of beta carotene to match the high number of free radical/single electrons causing cancer.

Through this process any cancer, in fact any inflammation anywhere in the body, can be terminated no matter how serious it may be.

You can be sent to hospice with only weeks to live, and this process can still save you. Even when you’re at death’s doorstep.

Due to this “head on, one-to-one” battle between free radical/single electrons and beta carotene cells, the more serious a disorder the more free radical/single electrons, and the more beta carotene cells will be needed to rehabilitate the free radical population.

With a serious inflammation like cancer, the body becomes riddled with free radical/single electrons as they migrate through the bloodstream to other areas. With cancer, you are truly being invaded by an enemy force.

In a very literal sense, at those times the body is being consumed one cell at a time by cancer. In other words, when you have cancer free radical/single electrons are eating your body alive.

Meaning, the higher the beta carotene dosage the faster will be the healing. Higher amounts of beta carotene kill more free radical/single electrons at a greater pace.

Remember, every free radical/single electron needs a single electron from a beta carotene cell to return it to good health. So you’re going to need a substantial amount.

Also keep in mind that free radical/single electrons are constantly attacking healthy cells, turning them into more free radical/single electrons, exponentially.

Even one damaged cell’s two electrons can create thousands more free radical/single electrons in a single day. One cell!

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENTS TO CURE CANCER

Beta Carotene, Vitamin D3, Lecithin

RECOMMENDED BRAND AND STRENGTH

Beta Carotene: Puritan’s Pride 25,000 I.U. each, Item No. 1223

Vitamin D3: Puritan’s Pride 10,000 I.U. each, Item No. 17247

Lecithin Softgels: Puritan’s Pride 1,200 mg each, Item No. 303

Lecithin Granules: Puritan’s Pride, Item No. 1064

(One rounded tablespoon equals 7,200 mg or 6 softgels)

Dosage Schedule

BETA CAROTENE

If you have been diagnosed with any cancer:

Beta Carotene Therapeutic Dose

Take a minimum of 200 beta carotene softgels daily.

Puritan’s beta carotene softgels are small and several can be swallowed at the same time.

If you are able, take each dose with a small meal. If you can’t eat much, try to take them with 2% or whole milk and have with it, for example, an egg, bagel, piece of cheese, handful of nuts, or some other token food amount.

If you’re lactose intolerant, try Lactaid brand dairy, or a milk substitute, which has 30% to 60% of the fat in cow’s whole milk. Cow’s milk is better, because you need the fat if you’re relying on milk to take the supplements.

Beta carotene and D3 are oil soluble and the fat helps both digestion and assimilation of their nutrition.

Beta carotene taken with only liquids and no food whatsoever, can sit there in your body doing nothing until you finally have a small meal. Then suddenly you can start to feel the healing directly after.

The body needs real food to process food supplements properly.

You can break the daily dosage into amounts as you see fit, as long as you reach your daily quota of 200 in a 24-hour period.

If the person being treated can’t swallow beta carotene softgels, use an X-acto knife to slice off the tip, then a pair of large hemostats to squeeze the contents into a small amount of liquid. Just enough to be taken in one swallow. A shot glass is good for this.

Best to deliver beta carotene in this manner at 20 softgels at a time.

WHY SUCH HIGH AMOUNTS OF BETA CAROTENE ARE NECESSARY

Even though the daily dosage may stagger you when you first read it, based on what you’ve learned so far you can see why such a high amount is vital:

If the number of free radical/single electrons were to remain unchanged once you get cancer, you could take your sweet time with lower doses of beta carotene.

But free radical/single electrons do not remain stable in number. They are constantly attacking healthy cells and creating more of their kind. The more you leave behind with each lowered dose, the greater number will be awaiting you at the next dose.

Higher doses of beta carotene are the only way to get ahead of free radical/single electron production and stop cancer.

That’s why you must continue at this high dosage every day for weeks—up to six to eight weeks for most cancers. Longer if you have, say, a hundred visible tumors as one of my subjects did.

Beta Carotene Maintenance Dose

To be used if you have not been diagnosed with cancer and want to make sure you never are.

Take a minimum of 25 beta carotene softgels twice daily with food. You can take more as you wish, as you will quickly notice a variety of nagging inflammatory disorders improving throughout your body.

If you take a maintenance dose of beta carotene and still get cancer, it just means you haven’t been taking enough. Your individual needs are higher than average, that’s all. Just move up to the therapeutic dose. When the cancer is gone, decrease to a higher maintenance dosage.

↘ NOTES ↙

Beta Carotene

↘ There is a myth that large doses of beta carotene will turn skin color and the whites of eyes a reddish hue. This is false. What is effected is the color of your poop.

Many people think it’s blood when they first see it. It is not blood, it is beta carotene. It’s fine and nothing to worry about.

↘ If you take more beta carotene than your body can process in the moment, you might experience a dull headache. It lasts as long as it takes your body to utilize the extra beta carotene, usually an hour or two.

There are no other side effects from taking higher amounts of beta carotene, if you have cancer or other inflammatory disorder.

↘ You do not need a brand of beta carotene that has other vitamins or carotene additives meant to fancy up the supplement. That is all about marketing share. Straight up beta carotene is all you need. In this case, more is not better.

↘ Fish oil and omega-3 are not substitutes for beta carotene.

VITAMIN D3 SUPPORTS BETA CAROTENE FUNCTION

The body uses D3 to properly process beta carotene. Without enough D3, the body will not be able to upload and assimilate beta carotene efficiently, and you may not be able to beat cancer or other inflammatory disorders.

Plus, if you take large doses of beta carotene without enough D3, you will end up with a D3 deficiency—which opens up a whole new subset of health problems and manifests initially as small sores on soft tissue, and wounds that are slow to heal.

Dosage Schedule

VITAMIN D3

There is a 10 to 1 ratio for using D3 to support beta carotene function.

For every 10 softgels of beta carotene, take 1 softgel of D3, regardless of whether you are taking a therapeutic or maintenance dose of beta carotene.

For the therapeutic dose of beta carotene (200 softgels) this will mean taking at least 20 D3 softgels daily.

For the maintenance dose of beta carotene (50 softgels) this will mean taking at least 5 D3 daily.

Always take beta carotene and D3 together.

LECITHIN IS A NECESSARY COMPONENT TO CURING CANCER AS IT RIDS THE BODY OF ORGANIC WASTE

A body fighting cancer produces a lot of waste—dead cells, and other organic debris—that must be eliminated for the healing process to be successful. That’s why lecithin is included in the cancer treatment.

Lecithin is also directly responsible for reducing and eliminating tumors, as they are perceived by the body as mounds of organic garbage to be disposed of.

Lecithin is an emulsifier, something that keeps oil and water blended. It’s a natural substance extracted from soybean oil, and has been used in our food supply since the early 1900’s.

It’s used as an ingredient in countless foods and cosmetics, because of its ability to emulsify, stabilize, and smooth.

It is Lecithin’s ability to keep organic particles in suspension that makes it such a valuable food supplement.

Lecithin does the same thing in your body that it does in foods and cosmetics: prevents organic substances from clumping together and causing blockages, and by stabilizing any blended mixture.

Think of lecithin as the body’s cleanup crew, constantly patrolling all areas, seeking out waste matter that doesn’t belong there, collecting it, and taking it to the dump.

HOW LECITHIN WORKS IN THE BODY

Each Lecithin molecule binds with an organic waste molecule and prevents it from joining with other similar molecules, holding it in suspension while it travels through your bloodstream to be safely expelled.

Lecithin will not cause chunks of plaque to rupture and drop into your bloodstream, threatening a flow stoppage. Lecithin works on a molecular level, mincing away at blockages.

Without enough Lecithin in your diet, oils and fatty compounds will clump and solidify into organic substances that clog vital areas and processes, such as:

Arteries, resulting in heart disease and angina pain

Lungs, resulting in phlegm, congestion, and breathing problems, Joints resulting in decreased mobility and function,

Brain, resulting in blood clot stroke

Lungs, resulting in phlegm, congestion, and breathing problems

Joints, resulting in decreased mobility and function

Skin, resulting in certain kinds of acne

Eyes, resulting in glaucoma

Gallbladder, resulting in gallstones

Sinus, resulting in headaches

Liver, resulting in fatty liver disease

Kidney, resulting in kidney stones, to name a few.

A good lecithin product should be derived from soybean oil, and contain a minimum of 70 mg of phosphatides in each 1200 mg softgel.

The value of a Lecithin product is determined by the percentage of phosphatides it contains, because they are what activate the fat emulsifying process. Otherwise the product is useless as a food supplement and emulsifier.

There are brands other than Puritans that do not qualify as an emulsifier because of inadequate phosphatides.

Beware: all lecithin products are not equal.

There are other lecithins that are derived from egg yolk, sunflower, and other sources. My experience is that they do not work as well as soybean oil lecithin.

Dosage Schedule

LECITHIN

If you have been diagnosed with any kind of cancer:

Lecithin Therapeutic Dose

Take 12 lecithin softgels AND 1 rounded tablespoon of lecithin granules daily.

One rounded tablespoon of lecithin granules equals six softgels.

If you don’t like the softgels, you can take only granules, which would be 3 rounded tablespoons daily.

If you don’t like the granules, you can take only softgels, which would be 18 softgels daily.

Lecithin Maintenance Dose

Take 6 softgels OR 1 rounded tablespoon of lecithin granules daily.

Lecithin granules are best used in blender drinks, or sprinkled on foods like cereal, fruit, soft cheeses, apple sauce, ice cream, yogurt, and so forth.

Make sure to use lecithin uncooked, in its natural state. You can use it in cooked recipes for texture and smoothness, but those amounts do not count toward your daily doses.

↘ NOTES ↙

Lecithin

↘ If you prefer softgels but can’t swallow them, you can use an X-acto knife to cut off one end, give it a gentle squeeze, and let the lecithin pour onto a tablespoon holding any liquid. One softgel per spoon swallow.

↘ When you use lecithin regularly, you will notice in the beginning that you may be coughing up and blowing out a lot more mucus than usual.

This happens because lecithin is breaking up old blockages and causing mucus and other wastes to be expelled. This is a good sign and will taper off as your body cleans itself. You might also urinate or move your bowels more than usual for a while.

↘ NOTES ↙

General

↘ Puritans nutritional supplements are recommended, because they are the finest quality and competitively priced.

Also, other brands of beta carotene come in larger form, and it can become uncomfortable when taking so many.

↘ Puritans marketing model is to give 1 to 2 free bottles for every 1 bottle purchased. And to give 2 to 4 free bottles for every 2 bottles purchased.

Use these “sales” to get a good amount, because you’re going to need it to eliminate cancer.

↘ I do not receive any compensation or other benefit from Puritans Pride for recommending their products.

BLOG 65: PLANTAR FASCIITIS/FOOT PAIN

November 28, 2023 by Lynn Capehart Wellness Project

IT IS THE MOST COMMON CONDITION CAUSING FOOT AND HEEL PAIN

ILLNESS CATEGORY

Category 2: Inflammation

SUPPLEMENTS NEEDED FOR HEALING & PREVENTING

Beta Carotene & Its Support-Vitamin, D3

Planter fasciitis is inflammation of a tough, fibrous band of tissue called the plantar fascia, which extends along the sole of the foot from the heel bone to the base of the toes.

This band helps support the arch and plays an important role in normal foot function during running, walking, and standing.

Overuse, like with athletes in training or that found in people who have jobs where they have to stand for long hours, causes this band to lose its elasticity and become stiff, non-functioning, and irritated, even with routine daily activities.

Plantar fasciitis is also caused by a sudden increase in physical activity instead of a gradual approach, the kind of surface on which you run or walk or stand, and being overweight—the more weight you carry the more pressure you put on the plantar fascia.

The pain from plantar fasciitis is referred to as “first-step pain,” because it tends to be worse when you wake in the morning, or after other periods of inactivity. Sometimes it can be sudden, but it usually increases gradually, and is typically felt near the heel.

The pain may be more intense when in bare feet or wearing shoes without any real support, like flip flops.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT PLANTAR FASCIITIS

The medical industry has a number of treatments, all of which are pretty ineffectual. They suggest resting the area, icing it, taking OTC pain medication, using a night splint, and wearing orthotic shoes. You can also do special stretches that do little to help.

OR: You can take the recommended “therapeutic” amounts of beta carotene, and vitamin D3, and be completely healed for life in a week to ten days.

To stay healed, you will have to continue taking a lesser dose referred to as a “maintenance” dose. Otherwise the inflammation and foot pain will probably return.

For many people, the biggest problem with taking a large amount of vitamins is that they equate nutrition in pill form with drugs in pill form.

They have trouble accepting that the higher doses of nutrition will not hurt them, just because that nutrition comes in pill form. All pills are not equal.

This kind of thinking is akin to having someone offer you a million dollars that you reject, because you don’t like the outfit they’re wearing.

Food supplements are nothing more than concentrated foodstuffs meant to increase the level of nutrition you receive from your regular diet. They are not drugs. They will not hurt you.

Beta carotene and D3 will not hurt you or interact negatively with any medication you may be taking. They will not harm you anymore than eating a warm biscuit would harm you.

The beta carotene bottle suggests taking one softgel once a day with a meal. This is equivalent to giving a slice of dry toast to a person who hasn’t eaten in a week, and believing they have been well fed with it. Much more is needed.

If you do decide to follow the instruction on the bottle and take only one softgel daily—save your money.

That amount will do nothing to heal plantar fasciitis. Beta carotene cannot, and will not, heal inflammation unless a high enough dosage is taken.

On the other hand, with the correct dosage, beta carotene will eliminate your plantar fasciitis and any other inflammation anywhere in the body.

When you use beta carotene, you are only supplementing your body with additional nutrition, because plantar fasciitis and other inflammatory based disorders are due to a nutritional deficiency. Not enough antioxidants present in the system.

Beta carotene is the best antioxidant on the market and the only one you need.

WHY YOU NEED HIGH DOSES OF BETA CAROTENE TO HEAL PLANTAR FASCIITIS AND OTHER INFLAMMATION

First, your body may have more important uses for beta carotene, other than the one you’re taking it for, since it works on all inflammation throughout the body.

Plantar fasciitis is inflammatory based, but if you do have other inflammation, say in your lungs or kidney or near your heart, your body may decide it needs the beta carotene to fight inflammation more dangerous than a minor ailment like foot pain.

The body will always prioritize the nutrition you give it—sending it to where it is most needed. Meaning, you could take low doses of beta carotene daily for the rest of your life and never get any relief from plantar fasciitis.

HOW INFLAMMATION ARISES

All inflammation begins with free radicals, which can occur for an array of reasons, both internal and external:

Smoking, excessive alcohol use, air pollution, injury, anxiety, making love, industrial chemicals, stress, exposure to X-rays or radiation. Even digesting a meal creates free radicals.

The body is built to withstand a certain amount of free radicals, but when that ceiling is exceeded oxygenation begins.

Oxygenation is a process of decaying—aging—caused by our oxygen atmosphere acting on all biologics. What you might see if you left a peach on the kitchen counter for two weeks in the summer. Or live to be 80 and look in the mirror.

Once oxygenation reaches a critical level of decay, the body responds with inflammation. From there, anything is possible, including plantar fasciitis or any other inflammation based disorder.

FREE RADICALS ARE CREATED AT A CELLULAR LEVEL

When a cell is damaged, the outer cellular boundary is broken, which permits the two electrons inside to leak out. As soon as the electrons escape their cell, they separate and become single electrons, also known as free radicals.

That’s what a free radical is—a single electron that has escaped from its damaged cell’s boundary.

Free radical/single electrons are very unstable. Once they leak out of their cell they attack nearby healthy cells, seeking an electron to pair with, though that is impossible.

Instead, they damage a healthy cell, turning its two escaped electrons into two more free radicals who then attack other cells. And so forth.

This process ultimately leads to oxygenation, inflammation, and inflammatory illness, unless you do something to stop it.

_____________________________________________________________

Free Radicals → Oxygenation → Inflammation → Illness

_____________________________________________________________

WHY BETA CAROTENE HEALS INFLAMMATION LIKE THAT CAUSING PLANTAR FASCIITIS

For some reason it appears that beta carotene cells seek out free radical/single electrons.

When a roaming free radical/single electron encounters a beta carotene cell it attacks it the same way it does other cells in your body, with one exception:

When the beta carotene cell boundary is broken open by a free radical/single electron, and the beta carotene’s two electrons leak out, they do not become unstable.

A beta carotene single electron does not turn into a free radical, and it will not attack healthy cells. This underlying fact is what gives beta carotene its remarkable healing powers.

Instead, each beta carotene single electron offers itself to the attacking free radical and willingly joins with it, returning it to a normal healthy cellular state with two electrons.

Therefore, each beta carotene cell is capable of converting and thereby eliminating two free radical/single electrons.

This process is carried out one cell at a time, which is why you need high doses of beta carotene to match the high number of free radical/single electrons.

Through this process, any inflammation anywhere in the body can be terminated no matter how serious it may be.

You can be sent home to get your affairs in order with only weeks to live, and this process will still save you from any inflammation. Even if you’re on death’s doorstep.

Due to this “head on, one-to-one” battle between free radical/single electrons and beta carotene cells, the more serious the disorder, the more free radical/single electrons will be present, and the more beta carotene will be needed.

With a serious inflammation like cancer the body is riddled with free radical/single electrons. In a very literal sense, at those times the body is being consumed by them one cell at a time. In other words, free radical/single electrons are eating you alive.

Therefore, the higher the beta carotene dosage the faster will be the healing, because higher amounts of beta carotene kill off more free radical/single electrons faster. And all inflammation is created by free radical/single electrons.

Remember, every free radical needs an electron from a beta carotene cell to return it to good health. So you’re going to need to take a substantial amount.

Also keep in mind that free radical/single electrons are constantly attacking healthy cells, turning them into more free radical/single electrons, exponentially. Even one damaged cell’s two electrons can create thousands more free radicals in a single day.

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENTS

Beta Carotene and Vitamin D3

RECOMMENDED BRAND AND STRENGTH

Beta Carotene: Puritan’s Pride 25,000 I.U. each, Item No. 1223

Vitamin D3: Puritan’s Pride 10,000 I.U. each, Item No. 17247

DOSAGE SCHEDULE

BETA CAROTENE

Therapeutic Dose: Take a minimum of 65 beta carotene softgels daily. Puritan’s beta carotene softgels are small and several can be swallowed at the same time.

Less than 65 softgels daily will not trigger the healing process sufficiently so as to completely rid you of plantar fasciitis, because of the exponential growth of free radicals in the area.

You may get some small relief with fewer beta carotene softgels, but you will not completely eliminate the plantar fasciitis without the higher dosage.

The goal is always zero tolerance when seeking to solve a health problem with nutrition. We don’t want to just make it better, we want to completely eliminate the problem and the antioxidant deficiency for all time.

Continue at the recommended daily therapeutic level for 10 days after all symptoms have disappeared. Then drop to a “maintenance” dose. (see below)

You can take all 65 softgels or more at one time, or you can break it up into smaller doses, as long as you reach your daily quota.

Know that 1 or 2 larger doses is best, as free radical/single electrons are constantly being created. The more you kill off at one time, the fewer are left behind to create more. Higher doses will help you get ahead of free radical/single electron production.

Just do the best you can.

You can successfully treat all inflammation disorders in this manner.

Maintenance Dose:

When you have felt no pain from plantar fasciitis for 10 full days, you may decrease your daily intake to 40 softgels. Or you can continue at the therapeutic level.

If your symptoms return when you lower to a maintenance dose, return to a therapeutic dose for as long as it takes to stop the symptoms. It could turn out that you need a therapeutic dose or higher as your maintenance dose.

DOSAGE SCHEDULE

Vitamin D3

For every 10 softgels of beta carotene you take, add 1 softgel of D3, regardless of whether you are taking a therapeutic or maintenance dose of beta carotene. D3 softgels are even smaller than beta carotene softgels.

(Round off the number of beta carotene, so that you take 7 D3 with the 65 softgel therapeutic dosage.)

D3 is a support vitamin for beta carotene, because the body uses it to properly process beta carotene.

Without enough D3, the body will not be able to upload and assimilate beta carotene efficiently, and you will not completely heal.

Plus, if you take large doses of beta carotene without D3, you will end up with a D3 deficiency, which manifests initially as small sores on soft tissue, and wounds that are slow to heal.

NOTES

↘ Beta carotene is best taken with some food. You don’t need a full meal with each dose, just something substantial enough to help the oil-soluble supplements to digest and be assimilated.

↘ If you take these oil-soluble supplements with just juice or water, they will not be assimilated right away, and you will not feel the healing effects.

As soon as you do eat—the amount you have already taken earlier will kick in and you will start to feel better quickly.

↘ There is a myth that large doses of beta carotene will turn skin color and the whites of the eyes a reddish hue. This is false. What is affected is the color of your poop.

Many people think it’s blood when they first see it. It is not blood, it is beta carotene. It’s fine and nothing to worry about.

↘ Puritans nutritional supplements are recommended, because they are the finest quality and competitively priced. No other beta carotene will work as well. The other brands come in larger form, and it becomes uncomfortable when taking so many.

↘ You do not need a brand of beta carotene that has other vitamins or carotene additives meant to fancy up the supplement. Straight up beta carotene is all you need. In this case, more is not better.

↘ Puritans marketing model is to give 1 free bottle for every 1 bottle purchased. And to give 2 to 4 free bottles for every 2 bottles purchased.

Use these “sales” to get a good amount, because even when the plantar fasciitis is healed and gone, you should continue a daily maintenance dose to prevent its return.

↘ I do not receive any compensation or other benefit from Puritans Pride for recommending their products.

BLOG 64: STROKE

August 10, 2023 by Lynn Capehart Wellness Project

THIS LIFE THREATENING DISORDER IS ONE OF THE EASIEST TO AVOID WITH PROPER NUTRITION. IT CAN ALSO BE THE BODY’S HARDEST TRIP TO RECOVERY, IF YOU MAKE IT AT ALL. SO IT’S BEST AVOIDED.

ILLNESS CATEGORIES:

1: Simple Malnutrition, 3: Blockages

SUPPLEMENTS NEEDED FOR PREVENTION:

Rutin, Soya Lecithin

Both kinds of stroke—aneurysm and blood clot—are caused by nutritional deficiencies. That means if you provide your body with this missing nutrition, you need never worry about having a stroke. The only exception would be a stroke caused by an actual brain injury.

Like a lot of disorders, stroke used to be associated only with the aging process—people 60 and over.

But in contemporary times stroke victims are increasingly younger, even in their 20s. Model Hailey Bieber had one at 25; Pittsburgh Penguin ice hockey player Kris Letang at 26; Project Runway designer Brittany Allen at 29; New England Patriots football player Terry Bruschi at 31; actor Sharon Stone at 43.

A third of all strokes occur in people under 60. Meaning that the risk to people in the prime of their lives is now considerable and higher than ever. Currently, stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide in younger people, and a major cause of disability in that same group.

In addition to the nutritional supplements recommended below, it would be helpful to avoid risk factors leading to stroke that can be easily controlled with a little personal discipline.

These risk factors include high cholesterol, high blood pressure, type-2 diabetes, drug and alcohol abuse, smoking, and obesity. Note that all of these risk factors for stroke are the direct result of poor diet or poor life choices.

More than 90 percent of physical disorders afflicting humans can be completely controlled and cured with nutrition. Up to and including the big two: heart disease and cancer. I would say 100 percent, but I know that absolutes don’t exist on this planet.

And don’t use the crutch of an illness belonging to inherited genes, outside your control. All you really inherit is poor eating habits passed down. Habits that you can change to avoid any family illness.

It’s all about nutrition. Your body was constructed from the food your mother ate while carrying you to term. It makes sense that the same thing that built your body can be used to repair almost anything that goes wrong with it.

Too many people treat their car, hairstyle, and wardrobe better than their body. They act as though they have a spare body hanging in the closet that they can switch out when the original fails. Not true.

Your body is all that separates you from death’s darkness. It permits you to experience this beautiful world we live in. Yet too little consideration is given to its needs, until it turns on you and pays you back for your years of neglect. Make no mistake, it will get you in the end if you don’t feed it well.

Proper nutritional intake is an investment in your future and will most definitely add years to your life. Just as poor nutrition will certainly shorten it, and make your final days miserable ones.

Start today. Don’t be the person who has to almost lose their life to understand how important good health is to that life. Stroke is a wretched disorder. Even if you live you may lose faculties that let you enjoy your time here. Don’t take that chance. Stroke can be avoided with nutrition. Start today.

● TYPES OF STROKE OVERVIEW ●

There are two types of stroke, both occurring in the brain, and that is why they are such a devastating medical event. So much of who you are is dependent upon what’s happening in your brain.

Aneurysm Stroke is a ruptured or torn blood vessel in the brain that causes spillage, bleeding that destroys brain cells and the mind and body functions associated with those cells.

Blood Clot Stroke is a wad of hardened fatty deposits in a brain artery that blocks blood from reaching brain cells, thereby destroying them and the mind and body functions associated with those cells.

One type causes too much blood to invade the brain (aneurysm), while the other causes too little blood to be present for proper functioning (blood clot). Both are equally dangerous and equally easy to avoid with the right nutrition.

• ANEURYSM STROKE •

This type of stroke is directly connected to the strength of the walls of the arteries that carry blood to your brain. If the walls are thin and weak they will rupture and tear easily and won’t be able to hold the blood inside. Aneurysm stroke is a direct result of blood spilling out of a brain artery.

Since the core reason for an aneurysm is a weak blood vessel wall, to easily prevent this type of stroke all you have to do is strengthen the walls of your arteries. If they are strong they won’t rupture, burst, or tear during normal use, and you will never have an aneurysm stroke, except for a traumatic injury causing one.

Recommended Supplement To

Prevent Aneurysm Stroke

A single supplement, Rutin, will strengthen the walls of your arterial system and prevent more than aneurysm stroke.

While you are taking Rutin, you will also see an end to bleeding gums, nose bleeds, rosacea, hemorrhoids, and any other disorder associated with weak blood vessel walls. And there are many. Unfortunately, Rutin is not a well known or popular vitamin, but it will work fast to strengthen and protect your artery walls.

Rutin is part of the Vitamin C Complex, which also may include citrus bioflavonoid, hesperidin complex, rose hips, acerola, alfalfa, and barley grass—all high in Vitamin C. Rutin is best assimilated when taken with Vitamin C Complex, which is its support supplement in preventing aneurysm stroke.

In ten days of daily maintenance doses of Rutin, your protection against aneurysm stroke will be strong.

If you have a serious disorder like hemorrhoids that bleed badly, making you a candidate for surgery, therapeutic doses of Rutin can bring relief in that same time period, even preventing the need for surgery in most cases.

Recommended Brand And Strength of

Rutin To Prevent Aneurysm Stroke

RUTIN: Puritan’s Pride 500 mg each, Item No. 1561

VITAMIN C COMPLEX: Puritan’s Pride 1000 mg ea, Item No. 3140

Rutin Dosage Schedule

If you have no signs of weak blood vessels you can take a maintenance dose of 3 tablets twice daily at breakfast and dinner for a daily consumption of 3000 mg Rutin. You may take more if you wish, but do not take less.

If you already have signs of weak blood vessel walls as discussed above, you need a larger, therapeutic dose to deal with all of that and still protect yourself from aneurysm stroke. Take 5 tablets twice daily at breakfast and dinner for a daily consumption of 5,000 mg Rutin.

Two weeks after all symptoms of other weak blood vessels disappear, you may revert to a maintenance dose.

Vitamin C Complex Dosage Schedule

If you are taking a maintenance dose of Rutin, supplement that with 1 tablet Vitamin C Complex twice daily, every time you take Rutin. Giving you a daily dosage of 2,000 mg Vitamin C.

If you are taking a therapeutic dose of Rutin, supplement that with 2 tablets of Vitamin C Complex twice daily, every time you take Rutin. Giving you a daily dosage of 4,000 mg Vitamin C.

It’s better to take Vitamin C with the additional elements than it is to take Vitamin C alone. But if straight up C is all you can get, that will do fine.

• BLOOD CLOT STROKE •

Your arteries are channels that transport nutrition to all parts of your body. It is important that these channel be kept open—especially for the brain and heart—because any blockage will impede the passage of elements you need to continue to live.

Certain foods are impossible for your body to break down. They leave behind fatty deposits that harden and when coupled with other organic debris are stored in various places throughout your body. Places they don’t belong, and where their presence causes a variety of harms:

If the debris is stored on your artery walls, it can lead to stroke and heart attack.

In your joints, it contributes to arthritis pain and immobility.

In your lungs, it causes excessive mucous congestion.

In your sinus, it will give you a stuffy nose and headaches.

On your skin, it causes bumpy rashes, excessive itching, and contributes to acne.

In your eyes it can lead to glaucoma when it clogs the drainage system there.

These are just some of the areas where lecithin will clean out organic debris and plaque that plugs up your body’s systems.

If you consume a lot of saturated fats, red meat, and refined foods, you probably have high cholesterol. Meaning that fatty deposits have already formed on your artery walls.

Over time these deposits harden and snag other calcified elements floating by in the blood stream, continuing to grow and expand until a blockage forms—a wad of material waste that prevents blood from flowing freely.

If this wad of hardened fatty deposits breaks free of the artery wall and floats into the bloodstream, it can become a bona fide blood clot capable of blocking the flow of blood entirely when it encounters other deposits in an already partially blocked section of an artery.

As with any disorder, to prevent and cure it you have to focus on the core reason why it happens. For blood clot stroke the core reason is a blockage to the flow of blood caused by a build up of hardened fatty deposits.

The only way to avoid a blood clot is to take a supplement that emulsifies the wad, prevents it from growing by keeping the particles in suspension, until the body can eliminate them safely.

Recommended Supplement To

Prevent Blood Clot Stroke

Lecithin is a natural substance extracted from soybean oil. Its ability to keep organic particles in suspension makes it an incredibly valuable food supplement.

Lecithin cleans out blockages anywhere in your body and is one of the most important food supplements for good health and longevity.

There are hundreds of disorders like blood clot stroke that are caused by blockages, and Lecithin will eliminate all of them.

Each Lecithin molecule binds with an organic waste molecule and thereby prevents the particles from clumping together and forming hardened deposits that can turn into blood clots and other blockages.

Lecithin is derived from different sources, including soybean oil, sunflower, and egg yolk. I recommended soya lecithin, because it works the best. I recommend Puritans brand, because their soya Lecithin contains a minimum equivalent of 61 percent phosphatides in each 1200 mg softgel.

This is important, as the value of a Lecithin product is determined by the percentage of phosphatides it contains. Phosphatides activate the fat emulsifying process in the body. If you take a lecithin product that is less than 61 percent phosphatides it will not work as an emulsifier.

I don’t know what the other Lecithins have by way of phosphatides. I do know from trying them all that only Puritans soya lecithin works the way I have described here.

Recommended Brand & Strength of

Lecithin To Prevent Blood Clot Stroke

LECITHIN: Puritans softgels, 1,200 mg each, Item No. 300 or 303

Puritans granules, 1 rounded tablespoon = 6 softgels, Item No. 1064

Lecithin Dosage Schedule

For prevention of blood clot stroke take 6 softgels at breakfast or dinner, for a daily consumption of 7,200 mg. As many days as you can, also take 1 rounded tablespoon of granules.

If you know you have high cholesterol or suspect it because of your diet choices, take 6 softgels twice daily, at breakfast or lunch, then again at dinner for a daily consumption of 14,400 mg. As many days as you can, also take 1 rounded tablespoon of granules.

Granules are best used in a blender drink, as they do not mix well or easily with liquids.

• NOTES •

↘ I recommend Puritans nutritional supplements, because they are the finest quality, and competitively priced. I also admire their community friendly business plan of offering sales of buy 1 get 1 or 2 free. Buy 2 get 3 or 4 free. There is no better maker of food supplements.

↘ You may take more lecithin than recommended here, depending on the circumstances, but don’t take less. I usually take 6 lecithin softgels daily. And three times a week I add a tablespoon to a blender drink. But if I eat a high cholesterol meal, like Thanksgiving, I double or even triple that amount.

↘ You can also take more Rutin and Vitamin C if you wish. All the supplements I discuss here and elsewhere are food, meant to supplement what you eat—to make it more nutritious. They won’t hurt you. They’re food.

↘ The process by which lecithin is created from soybean oil prevents it from having any hormonal impact on your body, woman or man.

↘ Lecithin will not cause the wad of material in an arterial blockage to break off in large pieces and actually create a blood clot blockage. The hardened fatty deposits are broken down and eliminated at a molecular level.

BLOG 63: ALOPECIA HAIR LOSS

April 8, 2022 by Lynn Capehart Wellness Project

OF THE FOUR TYPES OF ALOPECIA, TWO ARE TREATABLE WITH NUTRITION. THE THIRD NEEDS A BEHAVIORAL CHANGE IN THE WAY HAIR IS HANDLED. THE FOURTH IS HORMONAL BASED AND LITTLE CAN BE DONE FOR IT.

CATEGORY: 4: Auto-Immune

1: Simple Malnutrition

2: Inflammation/Infection

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENTS: Bee Pollen, Folic Acid, Biotin, B Complex-100, Beta Carotene, Vitamin D3

There are few people who don’t face some sort of hair trauma. Hence the term “bad hair day,” indicating that something bad has happened besides messy tresses.

Hair loss can be life altering in a literal sense, because hair is a significant part of our personal identity. When it goes, or is impaired in some way, we also suffer emotional loss that can affect us on many levels. Hair loss may even change how we interact with others, which can then lead to other harms.

I developed a stress-related case of Alopecia Areata my first year of law school. I had never felt that kind of unrelenting anxiety before, and not since I graduated.

The classes were large in number, a hundred students on average. Held in towering classrooms of old wood and polished rock, with tall cathedral-like windows. The solemnity of a medieval place of worship. And you left class each day humbled, but enlightened.

Whenever a professor paused and glanced down at the seating chart that held our names and photos, hearts froze. As did bodies. You could hear the proverbial pin while we waited. Don’t pick me, a silent mantra prayed by all except the looniest.

If your name was called your stomach fisted. You cleared your throat and girded your loins for a challenging ten minutes of forced discourse called the Socratic Method. Longer, if you said something naive that displeased them. Your tormentor would then move across the rows to their next victim, leaving you feeling mentally whipped.

With so many rows, unless you sat up front—which I never did for obvious reasons, you were looking at the backs of a lot of worried heads. I noticed two things happening to those heads a couple of weeks into the first semester. Hair was turning grey, and bald spots were sprouting—some dime-sized, some much larger.

One morning I was washing my hair and found three, round, larger-than-a-quarter spots on my scalp. I hadn’t seen clumps of hair, but there was nothing under my fingertips but exposed skin. The spots seemed to have developed overnight.

I was terrified. You don’t know if it’s going to stop or keep on going until you’ve lost all your hair. I made it through the first year and my hair grew back, but I had to comb over bald spots the whole year.

Since then I’ve learned to successfully treat most Alopecia disorders with nutrition, because most are caused by nutritional deficiencies.

That’s why it’s necessary to continue taking a “maintenance dose” even after hair grows back, or risk a recurrence. Maintenance doses are taken when you’re not sick for the same reason you have to eat every day—to avoid deficiencies that cause sickness, disease, and death.

● TYPES OF ALOPECIA ●

Alopecia is the umbrella term for hair loss anywhere on the body. Bald spots appear suddenly where hair used to grow and no longer does.

Type I: ALOPECIA AREATA

Cause: Auto Immune Imbalance

The term Areata, without further designation, always refers to hair loss on the scalp only. Areata presents as two or more bald spots.

All Areata hair loss disorders are auto-immune conditions, occurring when the immune system attacks hair follicles. Think, friendly fire. It is the most common type of friendly-fire hair loss. It is sometimes referred to as patchy baldness.

Other types of Areata hair loss are discussed further down.

AREATA SUB-CATEGORIES

1. AREATA Monocularis

Cause: Auto Immune Imbalance

Monocularis presents as one bald spot on the scalp. This single patch is usually on the larger size, but not always.

2. AREATA Barbae

Cause: Auto Immune Imbalance

Barbae hair loss presents as one or more bald spots and is limited to the male beard.

3. AREATA Totalis

Cause: Auto Immune Imbalance

With Totalis, hair loss can occur anywhere on the head, and can lead to complete balding of the scalp, eyebrows, and lashes.

4. AREATA Multicularis

Cause: Auto Immune Imbalance

Multicularis refers to one or more bald spots that occur anywhere on the body, not just the scalp or face.

5. AREATA Universalis

Cause: Auto Immune Imbalance

Universalis can affect the body’s entire epidermis, leaving the subject completely hairless from head to toe. This is the most severe case of Areata hair loss. It is also very rare, presenting in only ten in one million.

Type II: ALOPECIA CICATRICIAL

Cause: Inflammation and Subsequent Scarring of Follicles

Cicatricial hair loss arises from inflammation of the hair follicle. As the inflammation heals it leaves behind scarring, which destroys the follicle over time. Cicatricial is often referred to as Scarring Alopecia.

Scarring prevents the follicles from receiving nutrients from the blood stream and expelling built up toxins, because nothing can get through the scar tissue. Giving the follicles no life support. This is a disastrous combination that kills the follicles.

↘A Note On Inflammation: The body can handle reasonable amounts of it. But in excess, inflammation can kill us. It depends on the individual as to where it will show up, but it’s all the same creature.

For example:

Inflammation in nerve endings can lead to multiple sclerosis; Inflammation in soft tissue and bone can lead to cancer; Inflammation in the lower intestines can lead to Crohn’s Disease; Inflammation in the lungs can lead to asthma.

Inflammation in the hair follicle can lead to baldness. And so forth.

An obvious conclusion would be that all you have to do to stop these diseases is stop inflammation. But that’s for another blog.

Almost half the diseases identified are due to uncontrolled inflammation. All are treatable with nutrition.

Type III: ALOPECIA TRACTION

Cause: Rough Handling That Puts Too Much Stress On Hair

Traction hair loss is caused by careless behavior in the way you address your hair. Hair is not indestructible. Neither are hair follicles.

If you’re rough in the way you handle your hair, pulling on it or stretching it or brushing hard, you can destroy the follicle. When a follicle dies no hair can grow out of it again. This abuse can also cause inflammation that accelerates the hair loss.

Follicles can also become stressed by certain hairstyles that traumatize them, like wearing a tight ponytail or bun for long periods.

Other hairstyles like weaves and hair extensions, that make the follicle take on more weight than it can handle, can also damage and destroy it. Rotating hairstyles helps protect your follicles from Traction and let’s you still be hair fashionable.

Be gentle when you work with your hair. When you wash it, don’t dry it and your scalp with vigorous rubbing with a towel. Instead, pat and squeeze gently.

If you’re trying to detangle your hair, use a detangler like Pantene Leave-In Conditioner, to make brushing it out easier.

Hair is most vulnerable to breakage when it’s wet, so be especially careful when trying to brush or comb it right after it’s been washed.

Type IV: ALOPECIA ANDROGENIC

Cause: Hormonal Imbalance

Androgenic hair loss is commonly known as male or female pattern baldness.

In women, complete baldness is rare. But you will notice a widening of a part, accompanied by overall thinning of the hair. In men the condition can lead to partial or total baldness.

Nutrition cannot help this type of Alopecia.

● THE SUPPLEMENTS ●

In this instance, the following schedule is both crisis dose and maintenance dose. So it basically won’t change when your hair grows back. Except for Bee Pollen, you should continue these same amounts on a daily basis.

What matters in maintaining good health is what you do the majority of the time. You don’t have to be a saint, but try hard to make sure you don’t miss more than three to four day’s doses per month.

1. BEE POLLEN

You can purchase Bee Pollen in whole granules or caplets. It will calm down the immune system, balance it, so that it stops attacking the hair follicles. Bee pollen in any form should not cause or worsen allergies in those with hay fever.

↘Note: Thirty days after you consider your hair to be grown back, cut your Bee Pollen dosage in half by eliminating the evening dose. Reinstate the evening dose if hair loss starts up again. Do not decrease the dosages of the other supplements.

Whole granules can be mixed with a hot liquid like tea, or in a blender drink to dissolve them. Even sprinkled whole over cereals or grains.

Caplets can be swallowed or mixed with a blender drink.

Dosages

Breakfast: 5,000 mg (1 heaping tsp of whole granules, or 5 caplets)

Dinner: 5,000 mg (1 heaping tsp of whole granules, or 5 caplets)

Suggested Brand & Strength

Whole granules: Y. S. Eco Bee Farms; 5,000 mgs per heaping tsp

Caplets: Puritan’s Pride #4390; 1000 mg per caplet

___________________________________________________________________

2. FOLIC ACID

Folic acid is part of the B Complex-100 formula, a mixture of all the B vitamins. Once bee pollen balances the immune system, folic acid will start hair growing again. You can’t believe how effective it is in strengthening hair and making it grow.

Besides helping Alopecia disorders, Folic Acid will stimulate growth where hair grows intolerably slow. Or where hair grows only a few inches long before it stops and sits there. If you’ve dreamed of long hair but haven’t been able to grow it, folic acid might be your answer.

You need a strong dose of Folic Acid on a regular basis to get your hair to grow in earnest. When you stop taking it you notice the difference in just days.

The more folic acid you take, the faster your hair will grow, up to a point. I’ve set the dosage at a level to give you good hair growth but not cause a deficiency in other B Complex elements.

If the dosage I’ve set doesn’t show the results I’ve promised, it means you need to increase your dose slowly over time. Adding one tablet every few days until you see growth. When you reach that point, level off and make that amount your maintenance dose.

The folic acid I recommend comes in very small tablets. Easy to swallow several at a time. Or mix into a blender drink.

Dosages

Breakfast: 16,000 mcg (20 tiny tablets)

Dinner: 16,000 mcg (20 tiny tablets)

Suggested Brand & Strength

Puritan’s Pride #2845; 800 mcg per tablet

____________________________________________________________________

3. BIOTIN

Biotin is also part of the B Complex-100 formula. It is used in many hair and nail improvement products. Here it is used as a support to the main hair growth supplement, folic acid.

Dosages

Breakfast: 5,000 I.U. (1 softgel)

Dinner: 5,000 I.U. (1 softgel)

Suggested Brand & Strength

Puritan’s Pride #29634; 5,000 I.U. per softgel

___________________________________________________________________

4. B COMPLEX-100

B complex-100 contains all the B vitamin elements, plus more:

Thiamine/B-1, Riboflavin/B-2, Niacin/B-3, Pyridoxine/B-6, Cyanocobalamin/B-12, Folic Acid, Biotin, Pantothenic Acid, and PABA. Plus, Choline and Inositol.

When you take any element of the Complex over time, like Folic Acid or Biotin, you have to supplement small amounts of the entire complex to ensure you don’t drain others out and cause a different deficiency. The elements in B complex work together; too much of one over time will deplete others.

Dosages

Breakfast: 100 mg (1 capsule)

Dinner: 100 mg (1 capsule)

Suggested Brand & Strength

Solaray Vegcaps; 100 mg per capsule

___________________________________________________________________

5. BETA CAROTENE

Beta carotene destroys inflammation. No matter how severe it is. If your follicles are under attack by the immune system, it means additional inflammation is occurring in various parts of your body.

Remember, one form of Alopecia (Cicatricial) is caused solely by inflammation.

Dosages

Breakfast: 187.5 mg (25 small softgels)

Dinner: 187.5 mg (25 small softgels)

Suggested Brand & Strength

Puritan’s Pride #1223; 7.5 mg/25,000 I.U. per softgel; The softgels are small and easy to swallow.

6. VITAMIN D3

Vitamin D3 is a more potent type of Vitamin D. It is a support vitamin to Beta Carotene. The body needs Vitamin D3 to properly assimilate Beta Carotene. If you take large amounts of Beta Carotene without Vitamin D3 supplementation, you will end up with a Vitamin D3 deficiency.

Dosages

Breakfast: 5,000 I.U. (1 softgel)

Dinner: 5,000 I.U. (1 softgel)

Suggested Brand & Strength

Puritan’s Pride #19377; 5,000 I.U. per softgel

_____________________________________________________________________

↘Note: Try to stop thinking of food supplements as “pills,” which suggests medicine. Rather, think of them as what they are, “concentrated nutrition.” Food, in other words.

BLOG 62: LIVE FREE OF VIRUSES

December 31, 2021 by Lynn Capehart Wellness Project

DIFFERENT VIRUSES CAN BE SUCCESSFULLY TREATED IN THE SAME MANNER WITH AMINO ACID L-LYSINE

CATEGORY: 5: Viruses

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENT: L-Lysine (Lysine for short)

Here We Go Again

Covid 19, lambda, delta, theta, omicron; it’s getting harder to keep the virus’s mutations straight in our minds. Scientists scurry to develop new vaccines, or reintroduce a prior vaccine as a “booster.”

A booster gives you more of what maybe didn’t work well enough in the first place, as many people infected with omicron and other variants were fully vaccinated and boostered.

A virus’s ability to mutate is its deadliest asset and what keeps it infecting new hosts. It’s also what prevents vaccines from being one hundred percent effective.

Yet, vaccines are vital to our good health. They have confined diseases such as polio, tetanus, measles, hepatitis, whooping cough, and influenza, since the first vaccine was created in 1796. A physician collected drops of cowpox abscess—small pox in humans—from a sick woman, and scratched them on the arm of a boy to prevent the disease.

The Worst May Not Be Behind Us

We seem to think the worst is over, that any variant won’t be as destructive as the mother virus. But there is no reason this has to be true.

Consider this: Sometimes children aren’t as smart as their parents. Sometimes they have equal intelligence. But every so often a couple with average intelligence produces a bona fide prodigy, a lot smarter than the parents and more capable.

Likewise, some covid “offspring” will be weaker than the mother virus, as perhaps omicron will turn out to be. Still, there is nothing to say that a variant stronger than the original covid 19, responsible for 5.43 million deaths worldwide, will not present.

The CDC says that new covid variants will continue to appear, so the assumption that covid, and lockdowns, and isolation, could still be with us years from now is not an unreasonable one.

How much more death and misery must we witness before realizing that relying solely on vaccines and altered social behaviors can’t do it alone?

And it takes too long. As time passes more people die. Yes, people are still dying from covid 19 and its progeny. In the time it takes you to read this blog, approximately 78 people will die somewhere in the world from covid. Deaths that amino acid Lysine could prevent.

The solution is simple: Add Lysine to the current protocol to stop covid and all its variants. In partnership with a vaccine, Lysine supplementation would make a vaccine more effective, certainly eliminate the need for boosters.

For those who refuse vaccines, Lysine supplementation would give them full protection, if they have the discipline to take it every day. Without fail, because Lysine can only protect you from becoming a covid host if it is present continually in your system.

All Viruses Are Related To Each Other By A Common Factor

Think of viruses as cousins in the same large family. In some ways they are different, but in others they are exactly the same. One familial trait that all viruses have in common is a short life span of 10-14 hours for each single generation.

Anything a virus wants to do has to be done within this time window, including making and keeping a host body sick. Since 10-14 hours is the extent of a virus’s existence, it will die outright after this time period unless certain requirements are met.

The short life makes all viruses vulnerable in the same manner and for the same reason, as the first thing such a miniscule life demands is that each generation quickly get to the breeding process. Otherwise, it cannot continue an infection inside a host once this time period has ended.

Think about it: 10-14 hours is enough time to initially infect a host, but it is not enough time to keep the host sick. For that, succeeding generations have to follow within the same host.

Compare a virus’s life of 10-14 hours to that of the global average of 72.6 years for humans. We are clearly the dominant species, but also clear is that we can be swiftly brought down by a virus’s ability to work in tandem between succeeding generations.

Once a virus enters a host, it causes initial symptoms that announce its presence. But if that start-up generation cannot breed a second, third-and-on generation, the virus will die, and the host will recover.

There still might be days more devoted to full recovery from the physical damage already done, but a virus loses its effectiveness to do additional harm within 10-14 hours if the next generation fails to develop.

So, the common trait of a short existence is a virus’s Achilles heel, and the easiest way to kill it outright is to attack it through this shared vulnerability.

Lysine Is The Miraculous Slayer of Viruses

Lysine supplementation is an effective method for preventing infections and curing a host, because Lysine prevents a virus from producing ongoing generations of itself.

Lysine is a logical approach to handling viral infections. It is directly causative, non-intrusive, inexpensive, and readily available around the world.

Lysine renders a virus essentially sterile and unable to “procreate.” Without a new generation being “born,” a virus will die within 10-14 hours, because that is as long as one generation can live on its own inside a host.

Lysine Works By Preventing L-Arginine From Assisting A Virus To Make A New Generation

It is established that Lysine supplementation will stop a virus and prevent ongoing infection by its use. However, for reasons that make no sense in evolutionary terms, another amino acid, Arginine, will actually assist a virus to make the all important new generations, and by so doing, help it to keep the host sick, and at times to kill it.

The relationship between Arginine and a virus is so intimate that a virus cannot survive in a host without its help in making new generations. That means no Arginine, no new generation, no viral infection.

Note: Lysine and Arginine are in many of the foods we eat regularly, if not several times a day. There is no escaping either of these amino acids in a healthy diet, and they are both vital to the body’s well being. The key is to make sure there is enough Lysine in your system through Lysine supplementation. Otherwise, you leave inside you a dark little enemy unopposed, just waiting to give assistance to a virus. Never forget, this trait vulnerability applies to any virus, because they all live from 10-14 hours, and they all have to replicate a new generation within that time period.

Lysine And Arginine Are Engaged In An Adversarial Relationship That Lysine Dominates Physically

Lysine stops a virus from making a host sick. Arginine does the opposite, helps the same virus to make and keep a host sick. But Lysine holds all the power in this struggle for dominance inside a host. You have only to take Lysine supplementation to achieve its benefits and outwit a virus.

Here’s how it works

Both of these amino acids travel into and through your system via the same “channel.” When they are both in the channel, Lysine dominates it and prevents Arginine from passing through. Think of a seven foot, 300-pound bouncer named Lysine, outside a club with a clipboard. Think of Arginine as an uninvited wanna-be guest.

If Arginine can’t get through the channel, it is powerless to help a virus create new generations. The virus will then die within 10-14 hours. This is true for any virus. True for covid. True for them all.

The Process

1. A virus attacks the host body.

2. if Arginine is present in the “channel,” it immediately provides the virus with a vital missing element it needs to create a new generation.

3. If Lysine is present in the “channel” it blocks Arginine’s entry and ability to help the virus.

4. Without help from Arginine in creating a new generation, the virus dies and the host recovers quickly, no matter the origin or variant of the virus.

BLOG 61: L-LYSINE SHOULD BE SERIOUSLY CONSIDERED AS A TREATMENT FOR COVID-19

September 15, 2020 by Lynn Capehart Wellness Project

EVERY MINUTE ANOTHER PERSON DIES FROM THIS COMPLETELY PREVENTABLE AND EASILY CURED VIRUS

CATEGORY: 5: Viruses

(https://lynncapehartwellness.com/2013/09/01/blog-30-essay-2-the-seven-categories-of-illness/)

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENT: L-Lysine (referred to here as Lysine)

Anadolu Agency via Getty Images

SOME OF THE PEOPLE DYING ARE THE SAME ONES RISKING THEIR LIVES TO SAVE OURS.

Take a good look at this picture. I don’t know her name, we can’t see her face, but she’s one of the people taking this risk every day for others, for you and me.

We’ve done our part to praise health care workers, the signs, the plaudits, the platitudes, because we are deeply grateful. It is a debt we can never repay, only pay forward. For a couple of months we opened our windows and made noise to show our support. Face to face, we say what we would to any good soldier, “Thanks for your service.”

Think about this. Would you go to work every day to a job, not in law enforcement or fire protection, that put your life at risk? Where they don’t have enough protective gear to go around, making it more likely you could die? Where you aren’t given enough of the right equipment to treat your patients?

I wouldn’t. I don’t have that kind of courage.

But she in the picture does.

This picture doesn’t show just her fatigue. This is exhaustion, beat-down despair and near collapse. This is heartbreak and fear. She isn’t in the lounge checking her phone and getting a cup of coffee on her break. She’s in the parking lot, alone, breaking down.

This picture, without more, brought tears to my eyes.

Still, she will get up, take a deep breath, and return to duty like all good soldiers. No matter what it takes out of her. The question is, should she have to? The answer is no, because Lysine could help to protect her and her patients.

Six months ago I predicted what is happening now. That the virus would keep reinventing itself, over and over again. That reinfections would occur in people who had battled it and won. That it would keep killing us until we could come out of our boxed-in thinking.

But it’s gotten worse than even I expected. Time magazine recently reported that some patients are sick with Covid-19 for months with no hope in sight of getting better any time soon. This is a new virus, and it needs a new approach.

I have tried to get the word out to the right people, but I have failed.

I wrote the first blog about Covid-19 in February 2020. I wrote another blog in April 2020 that was an open letter to the Mayor of New York City, Bill de Blasio, and had it hand delivered. I know it arrived, because in the mailroom, Anthony signed for it. I received no response.

I contacted the embassies of China, Italy, and South Korea. No response.

I contacted the governors of New York, Washington state, California, and Nevada. No response.

I wrote an opinion piece and submitted it to The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Arizona Republic, San Francisco Chronicle, and USA today. No response.

Had any one of these outlets responded, lives could have been saved.

Mine is not the only unorthodox treatment suggested for COVID-19, but it is the most sound and the most promising.

Lysine can be our miracle for Covid-19, if we let it.

You don’t need a prescription to obtain it;

if you’re a doctor, you don’t need FDA approval to prescribe it;

it’s in the foods you eat;

it’s present right now in your body;

it’s not toxic, even at very high “crisis” doses;

there are no serious side effects;

it can be administered orally or by drip;

it’s cheap and easily available;

it works on a number of viruses affecting humans;

it is even used by veterinarians for viruses affecting animals;

and, it is universally known to be safe and effective in treating viruses.

Yet, all of this is ignored, while much attention is paid to less scientific methods:

We’ve had a head of state suggest ingesting bleach as a cure and people actually trying it, and of course getting sick.

We’ve had a malaria drug, hydroxychloroquine, put forth as a cure, with no connections whatsoever drawn.

A pillow maker said he has a cure, and he was interviewed live on TV, actually given a chance to explain his theories, or lack thereof.

Vladimir Putin has advanced a new vaccine that he is fast tracking without the testing and safety protocols usually employed. A journalist was asked if anyone was taking Putin seriously. His response: “The world is so desperate that people are ready to try just about anything.”

Apparently “anything” doesn’t include Lysine, a supplement that has been successful in treating viruses, including cases of Covid-19.

A Chicago nurse used Lysine to cure her Covid-19 infection in five days. “Your treatment can save lives. It worked for me,” she said in an email.

Unfortunately, as there are no clinical results to support the notion that Lysine works on Covid-19, the medical profession won’t consider the idea, even from one of their own. “I have reached out to many colleagues. I don’t understand why no one will listen or even try L-Lysine,” she wrote.

Our system for testing drug treatments in trials sponsored by drug companies is flawed, because it doesn’t provide for alternative-treatment testing based on nutrition.

The majority of people are unfamiliar with the benefits of Lysine, because there have been only a handful of clinical trials on it’s effectiveness in treating viruses. None on its effectiveness against Covid-19.

It isn’t just about the pandemic, it’s about the whole process of how medicines are approved, and who decides which ones are tested. The current system gives all the power to drug companies to decide what’s tested, and which medical treatments you are going to have access to in the future.

People rely more on nutrition and organic fixes today than they did in 1948, when the first randomized trials were held. Drug companies did it as a marketing strategy, to convince consumers their products were safe to buy.

The public wants more information now on natural, non-drug treatments, and in many cases, like with Covid-19, these treatments are superior to the drug counterpart.

Drug companies pay for over ninety percent of trials. We need funding for trials that aren’t controlled by drug companies, who are naturally biased toward products that will make them a lot of money. Food supplements won’t do that, so they are not tested.

It costs from $160 million up to $2 billion to bring a new drug to market. That’s because drugs are often dangerous and must be extensively tested to protect patients. Such is not the case with food supplements, like Lysine, which are simply concentrated food nutrition.

It would take a less rigorous process to bring nutritional treatments to the public quickly.

Let’s pause here and review:

The drug company pays for clinical trials for a new drug;

it manages and runs those same trials for its own product;

it decides which drugs will be tested—and which ones won’t;

it interprets test results for it’s own products;

the FDA relies on this data to decide whether to release the drug;

the drug company monitors after release for safety and effectiveness;

and, the FDA uses this post-release data in its review of the product.

Name one other business with such a volatile product that gets this kind of leeway to police itself, with little to no overview. Makes me think of the fox in the hen house. He can tell any story he wants about what happened to Polly hen, because it happened in the dark.

This overreaching involvement and influence permits drug companies to massage their results, to focus on the benefits of a drug and perhaps downplay the risks, because they create and handle all the data.

Perhaps most alarming, this system permits drug companies to provide the majority of medical information to the public and their doctors. Did you know that? That your doctor gets advice on how to treat you from the big-pharma sales rep, the one with no medical degree? You don’t need a medical degree to be a pharma sales rep.

Medical school teaches doctors, and when they graduate the drug companies take over their instruction. Good grief! It’s time for a change. Time to get rid of the medical fascism that this system represents. This is one of the reasons people are dying right now. We still don’t get it that prevention is better than fighting off a disease after the fact.

Let’s take a close look at 18 facts about Lysine, one more time.

1. Lysine is an essential amino acid. Essential, because your body can’t produce it on its own. You must get what you need from food or supplementation.

2. Lysine is not toxic. At crisis levels, the worst things that could happen to you are (a) it wouldn’t work, or (b) it may cause a couple hours of runny bowels.

3. Lysine is already being used successfully to prevent and treat certain viruses, including the ones causing cold sores, genital herpes, and a number of flu strains.

4. Lysine is an amazing protein building-block for human physiology that will actually prevent a virus from building its proteins!

5. Therefore, there is no danger in fully reviewing Lysine on Covid-19 infected subjects, and the benefit greatly outweighs any risk involved.

6. Lysine doesn’t stop viruses by attacking the individual qualities of each virus, the way a vaccine is approached.

7. Lysine works by preventing a virus from replicating a new generation, so that it cannot continue the attack on your body.

8. A single generation of a virus doesn’t live long enough to keep your body sick for days, let alone weeks or months. It takes succeeding generations to keep you infected.

9. To keep you infected, Covid-19 turns your body into a production factory for it’s own use.

10. Viruses live only 10-14 hours. During this period, Lysine can be used to prevent the “birth” of a new generation and end the disease.

11. If no new generation is produced during this period, the virus dies in your system.

12. If you can stop a virus like Covid-19 from replicating a copy of itself, your bout with the virus would last only a few days.

13. A virus is unable to make a viable copy of itself, as long as there are sufficient amounts of Lysine saturating your body.

14. Due to a virus’s ability to keep reinventing itself, Lysine has to be continued at high levels for five to seven days after you feel better.

15. All viruses have the capacity to hide from the immune system and leave behind enough protomatter to start a new generation. This “rebirth” causes reinfection and the whole process starts over. This is the reason for continuing Lysine after you feel fine.

16. Higher doses of Lysine work better on viruses than lower doses, and proper dosing is imperative for defeating Covid-19.

17. Unfortunately, doctors treating Covid-19 have no data regarding alternative choices based on a nutrition model, and therefore they cannot prescribe them.

18. If bleach and a malaria drug can be considered to fight Covid-19, what reason can there be for ignoring Lysine as a treatment? All that is needed is a courageous, enlightened medical team to try it. FDA approval is not necessary. The world is waiting.

Subscribers, can you help me to get this information out.

Will each of you please forward this link to at least five people. Ask them to forward it to five more, and so on. Post it on social media. Think of those who have influence and target them as well.

If you have tried any of my treatments you know they work, that I know what I’m doing. Why should this time be different? Lysine will work as well on Covid-19 as any of my other treatments have worked on their disorders. That is, exactly as I predict.

Someone out there knows someone, or is someone, with enough influence to get me a fair hearing in front of the right people. Please help me to save lives.

BLOG 60: MORE ON COVID-19: AN OPEN LETTER TO BILL DE BLASIO, MAYOR OF NEW YORK CITY

April 30, 2020 by Lynn Capehart Wellness Project

The following letter was delivered to Mayor Bill de Blasio yesterday at City Hall.

bill de blasio 3

Dear Mr. Mayor,

Thank you for the tremendous job you are doing as the City’s leader in these dangerous, uncertain times. You have shown your true grit and it is remarkable.

I am going to make claims in this letter regarding the current Corona virus/Covid-19 pandemic. You will perhaps be unacquainted with this information but will find it helpful. For the sake of lives that could be saved I ask that you read this letter in its entirety. Nothing more. I thank you for doing so. I have included a few short lines at the end about myself.

There Is A Better Approach Than Waiting For A Vaccine

Let’s Start With A Comparative Analogy of Effect:

All life forms have something in common that helps explain how we can quickly defeat Covid-19 virus. They all have a limited span of viability. Crucial to their survival is the ability to make copies of their DNA, to pass it on as they breed new generations. Or in the case of a virus, as they replicate new generations. You could eliminate any species by simply preventing individuals from making copies of themselves, from breeding a new generation of offspring. This can be said for any life form, including Covid-19: Stop the copy process and you eliminate the life form.

Lucky for us Covid-19, like all viruses, has a short life span: “. . . a generation time of between 10 and 14 hours in cells in tissue culture.” (“Requirement of Arginine for the Replication of Herpes Virus,” Valerie B. M. Inglis, (1967) Bacteriology Department, University of Edinburgh Medical School, Scotland.)

This means that every 10-14 hours there is a chance to stop a virus if you can prevent it from replicating the next generation. If it can be stopped in this time period, it is finished. (Ibid.) The virus will die inside the host body as the last viable generation ends without having made a copy of itself. Without that backup, there is no more virus.

Without the ability to replicate properly, the Covid-19 virus lacks enough of the hereditary basics to pass on instructions for creating the proteins that are vital for birth and survival of a new generation. Like trying to make cherry pie without the cherries.

Now Let’s Look Closer At Two Amino Acids: L-Arginine And L-Lysine:

You’ve heard of bad cholesterol and good cholesterol; one harms you and the other gives great benefit. There is a similar relationship between these amino acids. As it relate to viruses, they are opposing forces; one will harm you, the other will help:

The Harm: Arginine Supports The Spread of Viruses In The Body, Including Covid-19:

“Some evidence suggests that high levels of Arginine can make symptoms of herpes worse, potentially leading to outbreaks or cold sores. This is because the herpes virus needs Arginine to multiply. Also, absorbing more arginine may indirectly cause cold sores by disrupting the body’s balance of Arginine and another amino acid called Lysine. [Lysine] can treat and prevent cold sores, and it shares an absorption pathway with Arginine. If more Arginine is present, the body may not be able to absorb enough Lysine.” (“Which Foods Are High In Arginine?” Medical News Today, Medically reviewed by Katherine Marengo, LDN, RD, specialty in nutrition, on October 4, 2018, Written by Jenna Fletcher.)

(See, Addendum at the end of this blog for a list of foods higher in Arginine than Lysine that should be avoided when you have a virus.)

A clinical study found that “Based on tissue culture studies, it is thought that a Lysine/Arginine balance may affect herpes simplex virus (HSV) expression. Arginine-rich proteins are required for reproduction of HSV, whereas Lysine competitively inhibits their synthesis.” (“Lysine For Herpes Simplex Prophylaxis: A Review of The Evidence,” Integrative Medicine: A Clinician’s Journal, Venthan J. Mailoo, BSc(Hons), MBBS, and Sanketh Rampes, National Institute of Health, Integr Med (Encinitas). 2017 Jun; 16(3): 42–46. PMCID: PMC6419779, PMID: 30881246.)

“HSV-1 requires Arginine . . . in order to grow. Lysine helps prevent the body from absorbing Arginine, making it difficult for HSV-1 to grow and reproduce.” (“Lysine For Cold Sores: Does It Work?” Medical News Today, Medically reviewed by Zara Risoldi Cochrane, PharmD, MS, FASCP on December 17, 2018, Written by Danielle Dresden, Article 324696, March 13, 2019.)

Meaning that Lysine prevents the spread of a virus in the body by preventing Arginine from helping the same virus to breed and grow, and therefore stopping it from replicating a new generation.

The Help: Lysine Blocks Arginine, Prevents Virus Replication, And Lowers Infection Rate:

Lysine helps by impeding all viruses, stopping Arginine from helping any of them, including corona. “[Lysine] hampers the activity of Arginine, an amino acid that promotes the growth of herpes simplex virus. This suggests that increasing Lysine intake might work against HSV infections.” (“By the way doctor: Does Lysine prevent cold sores?” Harvard Women’s Health Watch, Celeste Robb-Nicholson, Former M.D. Editor-in-Chief.)

The Covid-19 virus is simply unable to make a viable copy of itself as long as there are sufficient amounts of Lysine in the body, saturating the tissue for a specified time period. The necessary levels are higher than those used in any clinical trials of Lysine.

Lysine will work as a preventive for someone not tested positive. It will end Covid-19 even if the subject is in the full throes of the disease when it’s first taken. Naturally the bout will weaken a subject, who won’t feel completely better for a couple of days. But the symptoms will abate quickly. Proper dosage is essential for recovery.

I shared the info about using Lysine to prevent Covid-19 virus with my vet at Westside Veterinary in Manhattan. She took to the idea immediately, saying that it made sense because vets routinely use it to treat animals with herpes. She reasoned that since it works on one virus it might work on another. That was a correct intuitive guess, and she is now taking it.

There Are Studies That Show Lysine Works On Herpes Simplex Virus In Humans As Well:

There was a recent study with the primary objective, “To summarize the research evidence for use of Lysine to prevent herpes simplex virus disease recurrence, a use not widely recognized by doctors . . . .” (“Lysine For Herpes Simplex Prophylaxis: A Review of The Evidence.”)

In this study oral Lysine supplements were taken daily. The results were that in doses of less than one gram daily, Lysine was ineffective. However, given “in excess of three grams daily, there was improvement to patients’ subjective experience of the disease.” (Ibid.) The problem with this study and all Lysine research is that they didn’t use high enough doses to have a real effect on the disease. It takes a specific threshold of Lysine saturation to be able to destroy a virus’s ability to replicate and infect.

“As a result, Lysine supplements may reduce the number and frequency of cold sore outbreaks, for which the herpes simplex type-1 is responsible . . . . It can also help with the treatment of genital herpes. Some sources recommend that people with a history of herpes infections take 1,000-3,000 mgs of Lysine supplements a day.” (Lysine For Cold Sores: Does It Work?)

Lysine Has The Ability To Stop The Covid-19 Pandemic In 30 Days If Administered Properly:

Lysine is an essential amino acid that renders Covid-19 sterile and unable to proceed with its attack. Lysine is “essential” because your body can’t produce it, and you must ingest sufficient amounts through food and supplementation. It is easily available and inexpensive as an oral supplement. One of the best vitamin companies in the U.S. is located in upstate New York. Puritan’s Pride could be called upon to concentrate major efforts on producing Lysine until the crisis is over.

(See Addendum at the end of this blog for a list of foods higher in Lysine than Arginine that help slow down a virus’s growth.)

Lysine can be used without harm by all—child, adult, elderly, asymptomatic, prior condition. It is easy on the stomach and can be administered orally or by drip. It won’t interact harmfully with other medications. It is a simple nutritional supplement bought as you would food, without a prescription. I’ve seen it used safely by people all over the world. It is a substance the body readily recognizes and accepts without rejection, because Lysine is only nutrition, but more powerful than any drug against Covid-19.

Some Google research shows side effects listed from diarrhea to kidney inflammation, but this is inaccurate. “Doses of up to 3 grams a day [of Lysine] are thought to be harmless, as oral toxicity has not occurred in humans.” (“Lysine For Herpes Simplex Prophylaxis: A Review of The Evidence.”) The only side effect of taking a therapeutic crisis dose is runny bowels. Not true diarrhea in that you are having to run to the bathroom all the time. It’s just that when you do have to go, the product will be loose.

Lysine Works On Other Viruses; It Will Work On Covid-19

Clearly, physicians and medical researchers have decided there is evidence Lysine is good for dealing with some viruses, like those that cause mouth sores and genital herpes, but they have been unable to make the intellectual leap to understand that Lysine works on other viruses just as well. It has never even occurred to them to try Lysine on Covid-19. Much to the world’s detriment.

There has been speculation for some time regarding Lysine’s ability to effectively treat and control any virus. “There may be benefits that have not yet been proven through research. Lysine may slow or stop the growth of [all] viruses. It may protect against sexual transmission of the herpes virus. It may prevent cold sores (herpes sores) from coming back . . . .” (“Health Encyclopedia, Lysine,” University of Rochester Medical Center, Medically reviewed by Diane Horowitz, MD; Raymond Kent Turley, BSN MSN, RN, and Rita Sather, RN.)

I worry Mayor that when you run this past your health commissioners, which I know you must, they will dismiss this information as not relevant, when it is the answer to our global nightmare. They will point to the fact that I extrapolate from research about herpes to support claims about a new virus. They will tell you these viruses are unalike and can’t be lumped together and treated the same. They will point to the fact that there are no clinical trials to support exactly what I say here.

It seems to me that doctors, the medical industry generally, have lost the ability to think and strategize about a disease. They sit and wait obediently for clinical trial results before proceeding. Maybe it’s the high cost of negligence lawsuits and malpractice insurance that has made them so fearful, but physicians are loath to try anything new, to even think about new ways independent of what they are told by clinical trials.

Trials are fine, but doctors can’t abandon the use of thought, imagination, and professional analysis to solve new health problems like Covid-19. This lack of curiosity is one reason Covid-19 managed to get ahead of us. Doctors have to open their minds to new ideas, maybe even come up with a few on their own. Waiting for pharmaceutical trial results without also exploring other ideas was addressed by a Lysine study:

“Lysine supplementation is not expected to significantly improve public health or generate sufficient profit to attract the funding required for randomized controlled trials. There is therefore a bias in research toward pharmaceutical as opposed to nutritional management of herpes simplex. This bias may extend to other diseases that are affected by nutritional imbalance, and it transfers power from patients to pharmaceutical companies.” (“Lysine For Herpes Simplex Prophylaxis: A Review of The Evidence.”)

This elevation of the profit margin over the well being of patients is another reason Covid-19 managed to get ahead of us. It can be said now that but for that lack of research, Lysine could have been available to prevent many deaths much sooner. (Ibid.)

Above I cite to a clinical trial where patients given in excess of 3000 mg of Lysine daily reported they felt better. The question then becomes: Why did they drop it there? If it was found that 3000 mg daily worked better than 1000 mg daily, why didn’t they try 5,000 mg daily? They found confirmed improvement by increasing the dosages; why not continue that therapy and see what could actually be cured with nutrition? (“Lysine For Herpes Simplex Prophylaxis: A Review of The Evidence.”)

The answer is because there is no money in nutritional supplement research. (Ibid.) Add that to doctors’ intellectual paralysis when confronted with new information not specifically supported by clinical trials, and you have preventable disasters like Covid-19.

Here is an email from an RN in Chicago that sheds more light on the fact that doctors have continually failed to heed new information right in front of them. She was on the front line and self-quarantined after she came down with Covid-19 symptoms two weeks after testing negative. It took her five days to feel like herself again on Lysine:

“I have reached out to many colleagues. I don’t understand why no one will listen or even try L-Lysine. Even though I am a nurse unfortunately I don’t hold much weight . . . . I’m thinking of leaving the profession entirely due to most of what I’ve said [in these emails] . . . . I will definitely try to reach out more . . . . Your treatment can save lives. It worked for me.”

The research cited herein is public domain. If I can find it, so can Dr. Fauci, but since there are no clinical trials that support my exact conclusions they will be dismissed. There is enough research available and supported to suggest to the medical industry that it should be working with Lysine. I do not mean to cast dispersion, but there would be many fewer deaths from Covid-19 if Lysine were made accessible to everyone. Our lives would not be in such turmoil now.

Let’s Recap:

1. There is evidence certain viruses can’t replicate and grow without the amino acid Arginine.

2. There is evidence the amino acid Lysine blocks Arginine from providing this assistance to certain viruses.

3. There is evidence Lysine is effective on certain viruses, such as those that cause cold sores and genital herpes.

4. There is evidence higher doses of Lysine work better on certain viruses than lower doses.

5. There is evidence Lysine is not toxic when taken orally in excess of 3000 mg daily.

6. There is evidence of an industry-wide bias against clinical trials for nutritional supplements.

7. There is evidence this bias stems from the low profit margin of nutritional-supplement research, simple greed.

8. There is evidence this greed bias prevents Lysine from being fully vetted as a treatment for Covid-19, despite its effectiveness against certain other viruses.

9. There is evidence it’s highly possible Lysine will also work on Covid-19 when administered correctly.

10. There is enough evidence of Lysine’s success treating certain viruses to warrant review of it’s efficacy in treating Covid-19.

11. Therefore, based on the above, Lysine should be considered for those with Covid-19.

I wrote a blog on Covid-19 on February 13, predicting where we are now, because I knew that without Lysine there was no hope we would stop the disease. I further predict it could take years to wipe out—it will keep bouncing back—if we don’t try more effective measures now. “Viruses are able to effectively hide from the immune system, and reactivate just enough to start up a new generation.” (www.cdc.com)

I write to you, Mayor, because you are at the epicenter. I also write because I have watched you, and you are a steadfast man with strong values who can hold his ground when he believes in something. And do it without rancor or anger or alienation. You are also a thinker. That’s what we need now more than ever. Someone who can think independent of the crowd, someone who can break from the norm to forge a new path. Even one untried. We need intellect now, not rote.

If there is any chance to save lives with this therapy, how can we not at least try it? Lysine won’t hurt anyone—the worst it could do is not work—so why not give it a chance? I hope this letter helps you understand that with this information you now stand, literally, one degree from saving the world. What New York City does successfully the world will follow. I beg you to investigate more with your own mind. This crisis never should have happened.

Call me if you like. Let me explain further. I can answer any questions you have. Dr Fauci says, “There is no magic bullet that can end this pandemic.” He’s wrong Mayor, and just as misinformed as the others. Lysine is the answer.

BLOG 59: CORONA VIRUS

February 21, 2020 by Lynn Capehart Wellness Project

ANY VIRUS REGARDLESS OF ITS POTENCY CAN BE SHUT DOWN IN HOURS WITH SATURATION DOSES OF L-LYSINE IN A SIMPLE PROCESS

CATEGORY: 5: Viruses

(https://lynncapehartwellness.com/2013/09/01/blog-30-essay-2-the-seven-categories-of-illness/)

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENT: L-Lysine

cramped in group of health workers

Wake up people. The corona virus can kill even the young!

The death toll from the most recent flu savaging continues to rise. Some are trapped in quarantine whether they’re sick or not. Others survive by hunkering down and suffering through. And it will get worse before it gets better. I haven’t had the flu in decades, but I remember it as being a hellish experience.

Every winter we go through this. Newer, often more deadly, flu strains strike, and people suffer and die. Needlessly. Meanwhile, limited resources are allotted to finding new anti-virals and vaccines to combat the constant mutations that flu presents.

Rather than engineer new drugs each year to fight the flu, a better idea is to use L-Lysine, an amino acid and simple food supplement that will stop corona virus by preventing it from replicating inside your body.

Corona virus infects you by attaching to your cells and thereby spreading its genetic material. Since the “life span” of a virus, the amount of time it is viable, is limited, it takes succeeding “generations” to make you sick and keep you infected. That way, as one generation dies, another is being born.

Viruses that cause the flu are in a sense living entities that crave life and will fight for it much as we would. Their compulsion is to breed and reproduce others like themselves, just like us. They do this to survive and pass on DNA to the next generation. They have to make copies of themselves for future use.

STOPPING THE CORONA VIRUS

To stop corona virus the focus must be on stopping it from making those copies, from replicating a new generation of itself. If you do that you can stop it within hours.

You see, without the ability to replicate properly, a virus lacks adequate hereditary basics to pass on instructions for creating proteins vital for the birth and survival of a new generation. Like trying to make cherry pie without the cherries. The virus will simply be unable to make a viable copy of itself, as long as there are sufficient amounts of L-Lysine in your system, saturating your tissue.

Your body will eventually fight off succeeding generations until the virus is expelled, but not before you’ve suffered through the body aches, muscle pain, fever, cough, fiery sore throat, runny and/or stuffy nose, fatigue, headache, and worse.

L-LYSINE IS THE CORONA VIRUS KILLER

L-Lysine is a simple amino acid, one of the “building blocks” of protein. Natural and benign. It’s interesting that a protein building block for human physiology will actually prevent a virus from building its proteins!

Taken in appropriate doses as soon as possible after you experience symptoms, L-Lysine stops any strain of flu. Taken in advance as a preventive maintenance dose, it will protect you from contracting the flu. If you’re not sick yet, you should start taking a maintenance dose right away to avoid it entirely. (See remedy at a glance charts at the end)

Let’s be clear on this. We label each new strain of flu virus based on many factors. We worry about its origin, strength, and ability to mutate. But the body sees all viruses as essentially the same, and its only job in connection thereto is to fight it off. Something it can easily do with the help of L-Lysine.

The goal is to saturate your tissue with L-Lysine, and keep it saturated until five days after you feel better. The inclination is to stop taking L-Lysine as soon as you feel better. If you do, you give a lingering “generation” the chance to start replicating again, and it can return with renewed vengeance.

L-Lysine is cheap and painless and could be utilized now to stop corona virus and end this misery. Your body’s warning plus your timely response can equal prevention.

I wrote an earlier blog on the flu; it repeats what is said here differently and lists other fundamentals for flu avoidance. https://lynncapehartwellness.com/2011/11/22/blog-24-the-flu/

OTHER RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENTS

Besides L-Lysine, there are support supplements that address other problems created by the flu, like (a) Vitamin C+ and Bee Pollen Granules, which are natural immune boosters; Beta Carotene, an anti-inflammatory that eases muscles aches and other body pains; B12, a B Complex element that fights fatigue; and Lecithin, an emulsifier that breaks up and expels the mucus of lung and nose congestion.

↘Notes:

You can purchase B12 at Vitaminlife.com.

Never use time released B12; you need the blast of the full dose.

At the crisis levels, L-Lysine will give some people runny bowels. Not true diarrhea where you’re having to run to the bathroom all the time. It’s just that when you do have to go, the product will be watery.

If lecithin softgels are hard for you to swallow, you can use granules in much the same way that you use bee pollen granules, except that lecithin granules won’t dissolve in hot tea; they pretty much need to be utilized in a blender drink, where they can be completely pulverized. One full tablespoon equals 6 of the softgels.

BLOG 58: HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

February 3, 2020 by Lynn Capehart Wellness Project

OFTEN CALLED THE SILENT KILLER THIS SINGLE DISORDER CAN TAKE YOU INEVITABLY TO YOUR END VIA STROKE, HEART ATTACK, MEMORY LOSS, KIDNEY DISEASE, AND OTHER PROBLEMS

CATEGORY: 3: Blockage (https://lynncapehartwellness.com/2013/09/01/blog-30-essay-2-the-seven-categories-of-illness/)

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENT: Lecithin

image of healthy food types

A healthy diet is one way to control blood pressure naturally.

You have a spiritual partnership with your body and a literal one as well. You need each other. Your body needs you to feed and care for it. And it is all that stands between you and the eternal darkness. Your earthly plans mean nothing if your body is not well enough to carry them out.

Usually, when your body has a problem it will send you a signal, a warning, a cry for help, known as a symptom. Symptoms are important and should never be ignored. Symptoms are your body’s early warning system, a request for assistance and materials. It’s telling you something is wrong, and it needs your help to fix it. There might be a sharp pain or nagging cough, an ear ringing or finger numbness, a problem not sleeping or a tendency to fall down. Maybe something so subtle as just not feeling like yourself. But something. In retrospect, there is always some sign.

High blood pressure is different. It’s a “gateway” disease that leads to so many others. It is the quiet killer, the thief in the night come to steal your existence. It has no symptoms, until you’re being rushed through a brightly-lit corridor flat on a gurney. Then you know.

WHAT IS BLOOD PRESSURE

Blood pressure is directly connected to heart activity. It is a way of measuring how hard the heart is working to circulate blood. Much the way a speedometer measures how fast a car is going. In both cases there is a safe normal and the higher the number the more danger invited.

The heart does its job through a pump action. Each beat moves blood along 100,000 miles of arterial pathways made up of all the arteries, veins, and capillaries in one adult body (about 60,000 miles for a child). This system feeds blood, and therefore nutrition, to every location. It also carries away life threatening toxins.

The force of blood against an arterial wall indicates how rigorous the heart is working to circulate blood. This force is referred to as blood pressure. A normal-range blood pressure indicates the heart is doing its job without working so hard that it’s hurting itself and other organs in the process.

CALCULATING BLOOD PRESSURE

To determine blood pressure two measurements are taken. The result is presented as a fraction:

The pressure exerted on the arterial wall during each heart beat is the systolic measurement. It is the top number.

The pressure exerted on the arterial wall between beats, when the heart is still and resting, is the diastolic measurement. It is the bottom number.

Ideal blood pressure for an adult ranges between 120/80 up to 140/90. Nowadays, we’re looking for a number even lower than 120/80. If you come in at 115/78, you will get a gold star. High blood pressure is indicated when this fraction is higher than the ideal range, and is known medically as hypertension.

TYPES OF HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

Primary high blood pressure is the most common and develops slowly over years as a person ages.

Secondary high blood pressure is caused by another medical condition, like anxiety, or use of certain medications. It is temporary and usually returns to ideal once the cause is removed.

CAUSES OF HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

There are countless reasons for a temporary spike in blood pressure. If you’re out partying with friends, shouting over the music, your pressure will go up. Having an argument, giving a speech, getting dumped or fired, putting away groceries, taking a test, wolfing down a meal, giggling, having sex, being chased by a bear … all can temporarily raise your pressure. But what if your blood pressure is high all the time?

SUSTAINED HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

The two key reasons for sustained high blood pressure not caused by meds or another medical condition are both diet related, (a) osmosis connected to salt intake, and (b) organic plaque causing arterial blockages.

OSMOSIS

Osmosis is why your doctor and all trusted medical sources tell you to watch your salt intake. It’s due to the havoc osmosis creates in your bloodstream.

You can remember osmosis from biology class when they explained why soaking an injured swollen foot in heavily salted water or magnesium-rich Epsom salts would reduce swelling and discomfort.

Osmosis is the process whereby a solvent, like water, tends to pass through a membrane, like skin, always moving from an area of lesser concentration of an organic, like salt, into an area of greater concentration.

This natural movement of water is the body’s attempt to equalize the salt concentrations on both sides of the membrane. Osmosis is the body seeking an internal balance.

In the case of the foot: Swelling is caused by the foot tissue taking on water to cool an inflammation. The water in the foot, the area of lesser salt concentration, will flow through the membrane (skin) into the soaking water, which is the area of greater salt concentration. Voilà, the swelling disappears, because the extra water causing it has moved out of the foot and into the soaking liquid.

The same thing happens in the bloodstream as relates to blood pressure. High salt usage raises blood pressure due to osmosis. By how much is an individual assessment. When your bloodstream is carrying a lot of salt, osmosis draws water into the blood stream trying to equalize the salt on both sides of the vessel wall.

Any extra water in the bloodstream adds to the liquid load the heart has to move, forcing it to work harder, and raising your blood pressure to bring that about.

Osmosis is an especially thorny problem for people whose body’s are inclined to hold on to water due to another condition, like congestive heart failure. People with CHF can have swollen lower extremities where blood pools due to the heart’s inability to pump hard enough to move it back up. High blood pressure can lead to CHF, because HBP literally wears out the heart, ages it prematurely, makes it old before its time.

group-exercising elderly black couple on bicycles.jpg

Exercising, even as little as 20 minutes two to three times a week, will strengthen your heart and lower your blood pressure.

PLAQUE

HBP causes the arterial walls to stretch outward. This stretching makes the walls susceptible to the growth of plaque. Plaque is the build up of fats, cholesterol, calcium, and other organic wastes on the walls of the arteries. (Interestingly, plaque only forms in arteries, but not in veins or capillaries, which are less susceptible to it.)

Plaque formation is also increased by a diet of fatty foods heavy in cholesterol and triglycerides. Even if you didn’t have HBP to begin with, eating these food would cause plaque on their own, and you’d end up with HBP anyway. Talk about a vicious circle.

The simple act of improving your diet with the addition of, say it with me, fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, fish, and lean meats, while also cutting back on foods eaten out of a bag, will help regulate and lower blood pressure. You also need a good emulsifier like lecithin to prevent and remove plaque formation in your arteries.

↘ Note: According to the CDC, 90% of Americans consume too much salt, equal to 50% more daily than is recommended. 40% have high cholesterol, and 33% have high triglyceride levels. The whole maze of illness connected to HBP is totally diet related and fully controllable. Only you decide what you eat.

HOW HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE DAMAGES OTHER ORGANS BESIDES YOUR HEART

HBP related damage doesn’t stop with the heart. It weakens and injures other organs as well, and through the same processes. All due to including too much salt and poor food choices in your diet.

ANEURISM (Bleeding) STROKE

If you take a balloon and continually blow it up past its ultimate stress point, certain spots will thin and finally burst.

HBP puts pressure on artery walls until they can no longer maintain the continual stretching, and they rupture like the balloon, causing an aneurism stroke. When this happens in the brain, it devastates an individual and her family. Nasty business, that, but it can also happen anywhere in the body and cause internal bleeding. It is always bad.

KIDNEY DAMAGE

If you have a truck moving food supplies to an isolated city, and the only road there from the warehouse becomes blocked with abandoned vehicles, then fewer and fewer supplies will be able to get through. The continued lack of foodstuffs will lead to malnutrition and possibly starvation in the waiting populace.

Like all organs, the kidneys have a considerable network of blood vessels supplying them. Over time HBP weakens blood vessel walls and makes the vessels more susceptible to the buildup of plaque. One follows the other—high blood pressure and plaque. The plaque blockage reduces the amount of blood and nutrition carried to the kidneys, making them work harder until they can fail entirely.

HEART DISEASE

By the same analogy as in kidney damage, the arteries surrounding the heart can become vulnerable to blood clots due, again, to the constant pressure exerted on the walls by HBP. In this environment plaque forms and grows faster, causing (a) atherosclerosis/hardening, and/or (b) a blockage that can turn into a blood clot or simply prevent enough blood from reaching the heart, until you have an attack or other episode.

MEMORY LOSS

Plaque in the brain that follows HBP is also responsible for memory loss and for the same reasons. If the arteries are blocked less blood will get through, starving brain cells die, and you face memory loss.

This same scenario can be presented for any number of body areas, because they all rely on sustenance being fed to them by blood vessels. All arteries are subject to plaque if you have HBP.

↘ Full disclosure: I am a salt hound. I’ve gone places and actually not eaten, asked the host to wrap it up so I could take it home, because they didn’t have any in the weekend rental. I’ve sometimes become nauseated trying to eat food with no salt. I certainly don’t enjoy it. I think my body needs the salt, because it doesn’t seem to affect my BP. My most recent reading was 109/71 with a pulse of 60. Maybe my high vitamin load prevents the process or maybe it’s a genetic aberration. Just remember, the rule is that too much salt presents a huge danger to your body and must be heavily regulated. You can use it, in fact you need it, but pay close attention to your intake. Too much salty food one day warrants the decision to eat less or none the next day. Look for a balance and you’ll be safe.

USING LECITHIN TO CONTROL HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE DUE TO PLAQUE & BLOCKED ARTERIES

Shortly after publishing Vitamin Remedies That Really Work!, I got a call from Tobi Knight, public affairs host on KIIS radio in Los Angeles. She wanted to interview me in person, not by phone, which is the usual way. Good thing, because we went out for a drink afterward and had a good conversation. I learned that her blood pressure was so high her doctor made her take a reading three times a day and then email the readings to him each day. This practice enabled me to track what effect Lecithin has on blood pressure on a daily basis.

I naturally suggested Lecithin and put her on a high dose of 6 softgels twice daily, plus 1 tablespoon of granules in a blender drink each morning.

The results surprised me.

Tobi was honest and admitted that she didn’t take Lecithin every single day, more like four days a week. But on the days that she did take it, her readings dropped into the normal range on that same day. Tobi’s pressure averaged as high as 180/120. With Lecithin the readings hovered around 120/80.

Until then I knew what Lecithin was capable of, but I assumed it would take a while, maybe weeks, to clean the arteries and bring down blood pressure. Apparently, that’s not always the case, and for some people Lecithin works to lower blood pressure the same day it’s taken!

Lecithin is an emulsifier. It keeps organic particles in suspension, as a mixture, by creating an environment where oil and water don’t separate. Lecithin is a natural substance extracted from soybean oil. It is known to be safe and has been used in our food supply since the early 1900’s. Take a look in your cabinets and refrigerator. Lecithin is used as an ingredient in countless foods and cosmetics because of its ability to emulsify, stabilize, thicken, and moisturize.

Without Lecithin, when you opened a box of biscuit mix, it wouldn’t come out in a nice powdery stream, but would plop into your bowl in funky clumps. Without Lecithin, your facial moisturizer wouldn’t be creamy and smooth when you stuck your finger in, but would show the oils coagulated and greasy. Without Lecithin, your mayonnaise would be a congealed mess, unspreadable. Likewise, your peanut butter. Lecithin is what keeps oils from separating from each other and other ingredients.

Lecithin’s ability to keep organic particles in suspension makes it a valuable food supplement. Is it such a huge leap from witnessing Lecithin’s known properties on other organic material outside our bodies to understanding that it can also do the same thing inside them? To me it’s a straight line of logic.

Lecithin does the same thing in your body as it does in food and cosmetics. It prevents organic particles from clumping together. Lecithin patrols your bloodstream, looking for an organic waste molecule to bind with. Once found, Lecithin prevents the waste molecule from joining with other similar waste molecules, by holding it in suspension until it can be safely eliminated from the body.

Lecithin will NOT cause chunks of plaque to rupture and fall off the artery wall into your bloodstream, threatening a blood clot and flow stoppage. Lecithin works on a molecular level, mincing away at the blockage, breaking off molecule-sized bits and escorting them through your blood stream (like a cop holding onto a criminal), keeping them in suspension (under arrest), and making sure they don’t team up with other criminals to commit more crimes (clump together and cause a blockage), until they can be disposed of safely.

Without enough Lecithin in your diet, oils, fats, and other organic compounds will accumulate, harden (they used to call it hardening of the arteries after all), and cause blockage disorders like heart disease and high blood pressure. With enough Lecithin, plaque and other organic wastes can’t settle on the walls of your arteries and drive up your blood pressure.

_________________________________________________________________________________________

↘ Definition: White Coat High Blood Pressure: If going to the doctor makes you nervous you’ll probably have a raised but artificially high blood pressure when they take a reading. It is the act of seeing the doctor that actually raises your blood pressure. There’s nothing to be done about it. They make a lot of people nervous. Just be sure to let your physician know that you have this tendency.

LET’S RECAP

If an ancient water bearer one day has his load increased by half, he will have to work harder by half to move the increased amount of liquid.

The same is true of your heart. If you’re eating incautiously, you’re giving your entire body a one-two punch of jeopardy. (a) Your salt intake causes extra water to be taken on by the blood stream, while (b) plaque caused by that same salt-related HBP narrows the blood vessels, giving the increased load less room to transport. And the heart pounds on, trying harder and harder to move the heavy load. Together, and over time, this double blow damages your body and shortens your life.

Don’t forget, even if you eat well—fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, fish, lean meats, and drink plenty of water—HBP will still cause plaque to form in your arteries if your salt intake is high.

WHAT TO DO

You don’t have to be a saint to be completely healthy, meaning you can cheat maybe 15 percent of the time and still be okay. What counts is what you do most of the time, the other 85 percent. If the bar is set too high and you don’t think you can make it, you may use that as an excuse to not try at all. So give yourself a break.

Specifically, it wouldn’t be the end of the world if you were to eat as much of whatever the hell you want once a week, as long as you’re taking lecithin to emulsify the carbs and grease, and, eating well the rest of the week. Knowing you can cut loose on your special day, guilt-free, might even help you behave on the other six days, since you will have something to look forward to on the seventh.

↘ Notes:

Remember, you’re not taking pills, but concentrated food supplements. This isn’t medicine. It’s nutrition. You need as much as it takes to get it done.

Additional recommended supplements are Co-Enzyme Q10, which strengthens the heart muscle. Beta Carotene fights inflammation that accompanies plaque buildup, and Vitamin D3 assists Beta Carotene in its functions. (If you can’t find D3, use Vitamin D.)

Puritan’s Pride Soya Lecithin contains a minimum of 61 percent phosphatides in each 1200 mg softgel. The value of a Lecithin product is determined by the percentage of phosphatides it contains, because they activate the fat emulsifying, plaque-removing process. I’ve rarely seen another brand that maintains this high level. You may use another brand, but make sure it conforms to these specifications, or it won’t work as described here.

Never take Lecithin softgels on an empty stomach as you may experience some stomach upset. Try to take it after you eat.

Lecithin granules are best used in blender drinks. You can also sprinkle them on salads, fresh fruit, and cereals. Be sure to consume it uncooked. You can use it in cooked recipes to improve texture and smoothness, but those amounts don’t count toward your daily maintenance dose.
