CHINESE MEDICAL TEAM REPORT SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT OF CORONAVIRUS PATIENTS WITH HIGH-DOSE VITAMIN C

Chinese Medical Team Report Successful Treatment of Coronavirus Patients with High-Dose Vitamin C

Originally published on www.dr-rath-foundation.org

A medical team from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University in China has reported the successful treatment of coronavirus patients with vitamin C. In a press release posted on the hospital website, the team describes how patients suffering from severe coronary pneumonia, a potentially fatal complication of the new coronavirus COVID-19, have recovered after being treated with high doses of the vitamin. The medical team recommend that for critically ill patients and those with severe neonatal pneumonia, vitamin C treatment should be initiated as soon as possible after admission to hospital.

Significantly, the press release acknowledges that early application of vitamin C can have a strong antioxidant effect, reduce inflammatory responses, and improve endothelial function. It also describes how numerous studies have shown the dose of vitamin C used has a lot to do with the treatment's effect. The medical team say their past experience shows that high-dose vitamin C can not only improve antiviral levels, but more importantly can prevent and treat acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress.

Shanghai Medical Association recommends high-dose vitamin C for treatment of coronavirus

In a further development, the Shanghai Medical Association (SMA) in China has published a consensus on the comprehensive treatment of coronavirus disease. Based on the study of more than 300 clinical patients and developed by 30 experts in the treatment of new coronavirus pneumonia, it recommends high-dose vitamin C for even light infection with the virus.

The dose recommended in the consensus is 50 to 100 mg per kilogram of bodyweight per day. For severe and critically ill patients, up to 200 mg per kilogram of bodyweight per day is advised, injected intravenously. Described as the 'Shanghai Plan', the SMA says its consensus has attracted widespread attention, including on Shanghai TV.

High-dose vitamin C therapies on verge of becoming mainstream

Reporting on these developments, some natural health websites have chosen to ignore the fact that the Xi'an Jiaotong University Hospital press release discusses claimed side effects of vitamin C treatment, such as the discredited suggestion that it can supposedly cause kidney stones. These websites similarly fail to mention that the SMA's expert consensus also recommends drugs for the treatment of the new coronavirus. While one can perhaps understand their reasoning, in that they may feel these aspects detract from the positive natural health theme of the story, they have failed to appreciate that high-dose vitamin C therapies are on the verge of becoming mainstream. Orthodox medicine will continue using drugs for some time yet, in other words, but its invasion by vitamins is now well underway.

In a further illustration of this, the U.S. government's National Cancer Institute recently published a long article on intravenous high-dose vitamin C in cancer therapy. Examining the history and use of vitamin C in the treatment of cancer, the writers concluded that "given the current high financial cost of new cancer drugs, it seems rational to improve the effectiveness of current therapies by studying their clinical interactions with vitamin C." They added that in their view, "the implementation of this treatment paradigm could provide benefit to many cancer patients."

Not so many years ago it would have been unthinkable for the U.S. National Cancer Institute to have written about vitamin C in this way. Clearly, therefore, as described in the groundbreaking book 'Victory Over Cancer', published by Dr. Rath and Dr. Aleksandra Niedzwiecki in 2011, the 'Age of Intoxication' in the treatment of cancer is on the way to being replaced by the 'Age of Cellular Regulation'.

A similar medical revolution is underway in the treatment of sepsis, a life-threatening condition resulting from the body's response to an infection. The leading cause of death among hospitalized patients, during the last 3 decades over 100 drug trials have failed to improve clinical outcomes for sepsis patients. Today, however, a treatment based on the use of vitamin C is showing remarkable results. Led by Dr. Paul E. Marik, an intensive-care unit physician at the Eastern Virginia Medical School in the United States, a study published in the journal Chest in 2017 describes how an intravenous combination of vitamin C, vitamin B1, and the hormone hydrocortisone saw just 4 deaths among 47 sepsis patients who received it.

As these developments demonstrate, the 'vitamin genie' is now out of the bottle. And with worldwide awareness of the power of vitamins growing rapidly, there is no way of holding it back. In the years ahead, the use of vitamin C and other micronutrients is set to become increasingly common in orthodox medicine. While we have not yet reached the point where heart disease is widely accepted by doctors as an early form of the vitamin C deficiency disease scurvy, as Dr. Rath's research has decisively proven, this too will eventually follow. Meantime, we send our congratulations to the medical team from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University in China. Where they have led, other medical teams will surely follow.

Herpes Zoster: Symptoms, Causes and Treatment

Herpes Zoster: Symptoms, Causes and Treatment

Aloe Vera - The best natural home remedy for people with shingles or Herpes Zoster skin disease

Shingles or Herpes Zoster

I don't know if you have encountered this before but this is the same virus that causes chicken pox when we were young and when it

comes back then you may call it shingles. They usually occur to older people or people who under went surgery and had low immune

system. It occurs to my brother when he had Gastritis and his resistance was so weak.

I'll tell you that having this one its no joke and it really gives you a stabbing, tinkling, and itching feeling. Its viral quality moves on the

infected nerve and if not treated this will get worser day after day. Doctors may prescribed you antiviral capsules like valtrex which is

costly depending on the dosage like 6 capsules everyday that he discontinued taking it after he found out that Aloe Vera leaves can cure it.

Here's my story of my brother's encounter of shingles healed by Aloe Vera leaves in just a few days. He first notice it as a rash on his

waist. He didn't mind it and he was thinking it would eventually heal by itself. Day after day its getting bigger and worst and its filled with

liquid inside of it. Now he got worried and so he take action by searching it on google and for hours of searching he found it and it

matches to the description and images. This is definitely it and to confirm it, He went to the dermatologist then she confirm as herpes

zoster or shingles. She prescribed him antiviral medicine which he should take 6 capsules a day. Since he still do not know other

alternatives so he bought 6 capsules for a day. When he got home he immediately search the internet of other remedies of this then he

found Lemon Balm but unfortunately it is not available in his country and that you have to order it online and It would take more days to arrive.

Since Lemon Balm is impossible to achieve but he did not lose any hope so he dig again for alternatives then he came across to a

website made by a fellow Filipino. He stumbled on the site calledPhilippineHerbalMedicine.Org he found different native herbal plants like

ginger,gummamela, garlic and many more amazing herbs. He continue reading on that site and then found Aloe Vera and its

amazing medicinal qualities and the important thing he found is its Antiviral, Antifungal, Antiparasitic and Antibiotic qualities. Next

thing he did is he search the internet about Aloe Vera and read some healing miracle on Shingles. Many testimonials confirm that

Aloe Veradoes heal Shingles and he was convinced to take Aloe Vera to treat his Shingles.

He phone his friends, relatives and co workers to bring some Aloe Vera leaves and they ask why but he said this is what he need to cure

his Shingles. He did not buy anymore those antiviral tablets because one it is very expensive and two it really dries up his lips and feel

so dehydrated because of the drug's side effects. So the next day his friends came and brought him some Aloe Vera leaves and

immediately he peel off the green covering and expose only the gel and sticky fluid. He started applying it on the infected area in a

circular motion every hour or every time it dries up. Amazingly for just 5 days he notice changes on his shingles and it started to change

its color to brownish and the inflammation was gone. Seven days after continually applying Aloe Vera, his shingles turns to black and it

never had a pus on it as what the doctor said to him that It would produce pus in a few days but it never occur.

Ten days later, it started to peel off like an old skin going off. He was definitely impress by Aloe Vera and its effective healing quality

NATURAL HOME REMEDIES FOR LUPUS

There are many effective Natural home remedies for lupus, including utilizing probiotics, turmeric, vitamin D, ginger, omega-3 fatty acids, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, sauerkraut, coconut oil, basil, and Epsom salts, as well as behavioral remedies like reducing alcohol, exercise, massage, and lowering stress levels.

Lupus

One of the most mysterious autoimmune diseases that afflicts human beings is lupus, formally known as Lupus erythematosus, and is characterized by the body’s own immune system attacking healthy tissues and cells of the body. Roughly 5 million people are affected by lupus worldwide, and there is no known cure, merely treatments consisting of immunosuppressant drugs to keep the body from attacking itself. This weakens the immune system, however, making it overly susceptible to many other forms of illnesses. The cause is primarily polymorphisms of genes, and dozens have been linked to the disease in one way or another. Genetics seems to play a large part, as does your cultural heritage. Africans, Asians, and Native Americans appear to be more susceptible to this disease. There are four main types of lupus: systemic, discoid, neonatal, and drug-induced.

The differences are beyond the scope of this article, but most have similar symptoms, and range based on what organ systems and areas of the body the disease attacks. Some of the most common symptoms include fever, fatigue, joint pain and swelling, hair loss, sensitivity to light, and a general malaise or weakness. Since the treatment options for lupus are so limited, and potentially harmful to your body, many people turn to home remedies to treat their lupus symptoms and reduce the impact it has on their quality of life. These natural and herbal remedies should be discussed with a medical professional, particularly depending on which form of lupus you are suffering from, and the severity of the disease. That being said, let’s take a closer look at some of the home remedies for lupus.

Home Remedies For Lupus

Olive Oil: The high concentration of beneficial fats found in olive oil, including omega-3s, can help improve the inflammation so common to lupus patients. Having a relatively low amount of sugar in your diet also helps to prevent lupus flare-ups, and olive oil instead provides a range of phytonutrients, which help protect the body against the effects of chronic disease.

Probiotics: Keeping your stomach health in good order is key to preventing lupus flare-ups. Nutrient deficiency is common in lupus patients, so ensuring proper nutrient uptake is important. Building a healthy bacterial base in the gut with probiotics also helps prevent additional inflammation cytokines from spreading throughout the body.

Reducing Alcohol: If you are on any sort of immunosuppressant drug, drinking alcohol is probably not a good idea. Most of those medications can interact negatively with alcohol, or are significantly less potent if alcohol is also being introduced into the body.

Epsom Salts: This may be an old-school solution, but there are still many people who use Epsom salt baths when they are suffering from inflammation, joint pain, or discomfort. The high mineral content can soak directly into the skin and reduce inflammation and pain, which are two extremely common symptoms of lupus. This isn’t a cure, by any means, but it is a tried and true method to boost your quality of life.

Coconut Oil: There are a range of health benefits of coconut oil, including balancing the immune system, improving digestion, lowering cholesterol, and preventing the negative immune reaction that lupus stimulates in the body. Clearly, in addition to its other wonderful benefits for the skin, hair, and body, coconut oil is a very effective remedy for lupus.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids: There is so much research being done on omega-3 fatty acids recently that it comes as no surprise that it can also help counter the effects of lupus. The anti-inflammatory nature of omega-3 fatty acids do more than help your heart; they can also improve the condition of your digestive system, general tissue inflammation, and joint pain.

Turmeric: The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory nature of turmeric also helps it reduce the inflammation associated with lupus and soothes the negative immune response caused by the disease. It also has effects on blood pressure and digestion, two other areas that commonly suffer during a lupus flare-up.

Massage: One of the most ancient and popular forms of alternative medicine is massage. If you want to detoxify the body, lower stress levels,improve metabolic efficiency, and lower inflammation, lay down on a masseuse’s table and let them work their magic. For long-term treatment of lupus, adding massage to your daily or weekly regimen is a wise choice.

Vitamin D: A number of studies have shown a strong correlation between low levels of vitamin D and the occurrence of autoimmune diseases, including lupus. Therefore, to proactively avoid developing this condition, ensure that you get plenty of vitamin D – that magical nutrient that our skin produces via sunlight!

Ginger: Commonly prescribed for those with arthritis and joint pain (as well as dozens of other health conditions), ginger is particularly powerful for lupus patients, because one of the first and most prevalent symptoms of the disease is swollen, aching joints. Getting relief from this issue can be the first step towards getting back to a normal quality of life.

Lower Stress: Stress hormones can lower the body’s immune system even further, allowing lupus to have a much easier fight when it attacks health tissues and cells. Cutting down on stress is shown to improve all of the body’s systems, and ensure that your organs and cells operate as efficiently as possible.

Basil: Herbal remedies are always good options for fighting chronic diseases, and holy basil is a wonderful option for lupus. With natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential, combined with being an adaptogenic herb that helps your body adjust to stress and enzymatic imbalances, holy basil represents a comprehensive approach to protecting your health and making your food delicious at the same time.

Exercise: The natural endorphin release of exercise, along with its impact on your metabolism and its detoxifying capacity, makes this activity essential if you want to stay healthy and defend against lupus. Regular exercise to get the heart rate up and fend off fatigue can be a great way to ward off the seemingly endless exhaustion that this disease causes.

Apple Cider Vinegar: One of the peculiar side effects of lupus is that it decreases the body’s content of hydrochloric acid, but apple cider vinegar directly stimulates the production of hydrochloric acid in the body. Maintaining this balance is important, and when added to apple cider vinegar’s detoxification qualities, this home remedy can be very potent indeed.

A Final Word of Warning: Although this can be a chronic, lifelong disease (after it is developed), it is still quite serious, and the threat to your immune system is always real. Seeing a doctor for formal treatment is highly recommended, particularly to get an initial diagnosis and determine what type of lupus you are suffering from. These home remedies may be used in conjunction with some immunosuppressant drugs, but you should discuss possible interactions with a doctor. source.https://www.organicfacts.net/home-remedies/lupus.html

Ayurveda First Aid Management For Snake Bites

Generally, we heard about snake bites through newspaper or other sources. But, there are a large number of cases which are unnoticed and don’t get proper first aid and treatment that entrap them in troubles and sometimes lead to death. Getting quick medical facilities are not possible for everyone, especially in the countryside area. Here, the role of herbs, home remedies, ayurveda and unani medicines become relevant and significant. There are two types of snakes-poisonous and non-poisonous. The biting of poisonous snakes need urgent action and consults the nearby doctor immediately. Whereas biting of non-poisonous snakes is not a big issue where first aid management and home remedies are enough to treat it.

Snake bites symptoms

The biting of poisonous snake starts showing its symptoms quickly. After bites, toxins or poison spread throughout the body causing acute pain at the site of bites.  The patients experience dizziness, headache, vertigo and blurred vision. Twisting and limping of legs are also common signs in such cases. The person starts losing consciousness and gradually become totally unconscious. If first aid and medical helps don’t provide at the right time, the risk of death increased.

First aids for snake bites

At once, one should tied a piece of cloth or string at a distance of 8 cm above the bite and one more bandage should be tied further above 8 cm apart. Afterwards, a one cm deep incision should be made in the form of a cross at the place of the bite by means of sterilized sharp knife or razor and then hot water must be poured on the wound.  The place should be squeezed hard so that the blood flows out of the cut. Then apply a clean dressing. The patient should immediately refer to nearby hospital after providing first aid.

6 Ayurvedic herbs for snake bites

There are some ayurvedic and unani herbs which can be used as first aid management before consulting the doctor. But one shouldn’t delay in rushing hospital.

1. Asafetida (Hing): Take Heeng (125mg) along with wine and rush  to the hospital at the earliest for medical help.
2. Onion or Garlic: Take onion or garlic in sufficient quantity with wine or pure ghee (butter) as first aid treatment.

6. Lemon Seed: Lemon seeds (1gm). Method: Grind with water and take as such. Make paste with water and apply on the affected part.

Prevention and precautions

• One shouldn’t try to suck out the poison by mouth.
• Avoid eating anything, especially caffeine and alcohol as it will help to spread the venom rapidly.
• Don’t raise the affected part above your heart.
