products in generic retailers tend to be of poor quality. We will be sending DHEA because it is outlawed for sale in
England.
Vitamin B's (especially B5)
Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) activates the adrenal glands. It is a precursor of acetyl CoA (a part of the Krebs's cycle
which produces cellular energy) and acetylcholine (a primary neurotransmitter). Pantothenic acid deficiency results in
adrenal insufficiency, which is characterized by fatigue, headache, sleep disturbances, nausea, and abdominal
discomfort.
DHEA
DHEA may help to protect against the overproduction of cortisol from the adrenal glands and enhance the immune
system. This is an important factor since too much cortisol accelerates aging and causes immune system disorders.
Studies show that DHEA deficiency may actually debilitate immune status.
Licorice
Licorice is also a demulcent (an oily substance that reduces irritation), which makes it soothing to the digestive tract.
Deglycyrrhized licorice (DGL) is made by removing the glycyrrhizin. For the adrenal effects, only real licorice should
be used, not DGL. Long-term use of licorice containing more than 1 gram of glycyrrhizin (the amount in
approximately 10 grams of licorice root) daily can cause increased blood pressure and water retention (edema)
(Schambelan 1994). High doses of licorice should only be taken under the care of a qualified health professional.
Green Tea (This can be flavored with honey and lemon)
L-theanine is an amino acid found in green tea that produces a calming effect in the brain. It works by increasing
gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) that is a relaxer and creates a sense of well-being. L-theanine may be taken to
help modulate mood and relieve stress in many health conditions.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C Studies show that vitamin C and aspirin can attenuate and influence cortisol, inducing an anti-inflammatory
response to prolonged exercise and stress. Vitamin C has been shown to reduce the elevation of cortisol in response to
heavy exercise. In human studies, 3000 mg of vitamin C daily mitigated a rise in blood pressure, cortisol, and
subjective response to acute psychological stress.
Vitamin E
Phosphatidylserine
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid that is a structural component of the biological membranes in animals and
plants. In studies, supplemental "PS" has been shown to improve mood and blunt the release of cortisol in response to
physical stress.
Melatonin
Melatonin is secreted by the pineal gland and functions to regulate circadian rhythm and induce sleep. Melatonin
circadian secretion in patients with pituitary- or adrenal-dependent Cushing's Syndrome was shown to be significantly
lower compared to healthy control groups. Studies also have shown that nightly administration of 2 mg of melatonin
increased the DHEA-S-cortisol ratio after 6 months of treatment
American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolium L.)
American ginseng has often been used to help boost the immune system, in order to help the body fight diseases. It is
purported to regulate the metabolism, as well as improve blood lipid levels. It is commonly used in Traditional
Chinese Medicine in many areas relating to the kidneys.
Saw Palmetto
Improves hormone levels, and consequently aids erectile dysfunction, and hair loss. It has become an accepted
treatment for symptoms associated with benign prostate gland enlargement (called benign prostatic hyperplasia, or
BPH) in many parts of Europe and in New Zealand. In North America, saw palmetto is considered an alternative
herbal remedy for BPH.
Dandelion
That's right, we are indeed talking about the weed. You may be able to purchase a herbal tea already containing it, or
dandelion capsules. One can also substitue dried pokeroot, since it is considered especially effective for treating all
glandular diseases.
Garlic
The more garlic in the diet, the better. There are anecdotal cases where people have claimed to have killed cancer by
merely eating pure garlic.
Essaic Tea
This tea contains Sheep Sorrel and Burdock Root
Cilantro
This is great for a heavy metal detox, along with apples. You will also need magnesium from green leafy vegetables.
Lysine
This is an essential amino acid. Lysine plays a large role in the bonding of hydrogen in the body, and thereby it
strongly enhances the body's ability to utilize oxygen. This is available in pill form from most health food and herbal
stores, and can also be found in plentiful amounts through fish.

Naturopathic and Holistic Treatment Suggestions
Flax Seed Oil and Cottage Cheese Combination
This is at the core of "The Budwig (anti-cancer) Diet", and information about it has been suppressed by the
establishment, along with several other techniques mentioned. You should use an omega-3 supplement in the form of
flax seed oil, and combine it with cottage cheese. Flax seed oil is the safest omega-3 source, and it has no risk of
mercury contamination. Flax seed oil combines with the sulfur proteins in cottage cheese to form a new protein. This
OLD SCHOOL MEDECINE.txt[9/1/2015 12:05:39 AM]
new protein is poisonous to cancer cells, but harmless otherwise. Use this treatment often: five to six times a day until
there is no trace of cancer. The source of the flax seed oil is important, because if not properly protected, then the oil
may become rancid, and actually stimulate cancer. The oil should be extracted with a cold pressing technique, and it
should be protected from heat and light. I suggest getting it in capsules since they protect each dose, because exposure
to air is enough to rapidly make it rancid. The dosage should be a couple of tablespoons combined with twice that
amount in cottage cheese. The Budwig Diet is an entire dietary protocol that should be researched and followed
religiously. It is not included here for the sake of brevity.
Heavy Metal Cleanse (colon cleanse)
You are bound to hate this one, but we highly recommend it. Fortunately, with some changes in lifestyle, it needs to be
done only once. We do not recommend that you immediately perform a colon cleanse. You should wait until you are
feeling strong for several days before even considering it, as the cleanse will be draining on your strength for at least
two days. Cleansing kits can be purchased at health food and herbal stores. We recommend that you select a kit for a
several-day basic cleanse, instead of the kits which claim a complete cleanse after usage for a month. We just need to
give your body a boost, so it can better deal with toxins in the future. Be certain to drink plenty of fluids during the
cleanse, and be prepared to visit the bathroom often. The cleanse should take place during a fasting period in which
you consume only fruits, vegetables, and juice.
Caster Oil Dermal Packs
100% natural cold-pressed caster oil is applied in a manner to accomplish rapid absorption through the skin, bypassing
the digestive system. This is begun by saturating a small piece of cloth with caster oil. Then the cloth is laid upon the
bare skin from the navel area to the lower breast area; covering the entire stomach and abdomen. On top of the cloth a
piece of plastic should be lain, and then on top of that should lay a hot water bottle. As much heat as-is tolerable
should be used. Remain still for thirty minutes to allow for adequate absorption.
Special Water
Drink plenty of fluids, but not the tap water. The water from the tap is full of chemicals and is slightly acidic. The
changes in diet, and fluids, revolve in large part around making you body more alkaline. Disease and cancers find an
alkaline body chemistry to be extremely hostile, and this is what we want. Of course, altering a body's PH is not a
quick and easy task. If we can get your body to hold a PH of 8 for just a day, all cancer cells and practically all
destructive bacteria in your body will die. You'll naturally find that you feel really good too. With a more natural and
healthy diet, a body's natural state is alkaline, but because of toxins and additives, practically everyone has a acidic
body chemistry (acidosis). Because of the body's resistance to change, and in particular rapid change, the acidity of
your body will cause the changes in diet and water to be unpleasant in an exaggerated manner. Fruit juices are okay,
even though they are acidic. The body undergoes a chemical reaction with natural (pure organic) juices which actually
leaves the body more alkaline after digestion. Cancer cannot survive in a high oxygen environment. Cancer cells feed
off of fermentation, and regular cells (including the immune system) feed off of oxygen.
Vinegar / Soda / Peroxide Drink
Several times a day, drink the following tonic. Add two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to a glass with 1/8 of a
teaspoon of baking soda. Wait until the fizzing reaction completely stops. Then fill the remainder of the glass with
regular water, or the juice of your choice. Finally add in about 5-10 drops of food-grade 3% hydrogen peroxide. Do
not stir. Be careful to handle the peroxide gently, and replace the cap immediately. Hydrogen peroxide is merely
oxygenated water, and it will return to being plain water if its oxygen is allowed to escape. This should give you more
energy, and give you a slight boost to your overall health. No one seems to understand why, but there is almost
something magical about apple cider vinegar. You must use the apple cider type -- not distilled vinegar. The soda will
give you bi-carbonates, and make the drink non-acidic, and the peroxide will boost the oxygen in your blood.
Limit Gluten (found in yeast, and carbohydrates)
"Over a 3-month period, on a gluten-free diet, the patient showed a marked clinical improvement accompanied by a
progressive decrease in the need for thyroid and adrenal replacement therapies. After 6 months, the serum IgA
antiendomysium antibody test (used to confirm celiac disease) became negative. After 12 months, a new jejunal biopsy
showed complete mucosal recovery. (The jejunum is the middle third of the small intestine.) After 18 months on a
gluten-free diet, the antithyroid antibodies titer decreased significantly, and thyroid substitutive therapy was
discontinued. The authors proposed a link between autoimmune endocrine disease and celiac disease, noting that celiac
disease is one of the causes for the failure of substitute hormonal therapy in patients with autoimmune thyroid disease."
-- Gebre-Medhin et al. 2000
Diet
Follow the Budwig Diet. Eat no red meat whatsoever. If you need more iron, then take an iron supplement every other
day (more if the deficiency is serious), but a better alternative would be to swallow a tablespoon of maple syrup.
White meat is okay once or twice a day, and this includes fish. The fish must not be bottom feeders such as crab,
shrimp, or lobster. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. Try juicing, and see our forum for ideas. Milk should be
avoided, but if it is necessary, then use organic whole milk (not homogenized). Avoid all artificial sweeteners
(including aspartame and saccharin). Avoid hydrogenated oils. Avoid white (bleached) sugar and flour. Honey is a
healthy substitute for sugar. Buy foods that are as pure and organic as you can get. Sodium (from sea salt) is important
in your set of conditions, but potassium should be limited. Avoid high-potassium foods such as bananas, oranges, and
tomatoes.

Addison's disease is a profound chronic adrenal failure caused by damage or disease of the adrenal gland, resulting in a
deficiency of cortisol. This disease is sometimes called chronic adrenal insufficiency or hypocortisolism. The most
important job of cortisol is to help the body respond to stress. Among its other vital tasks, cortisol is partly responsible
for:
* Maintaining blood pressure and cardiovascular function Balancing
* the effects of insulin in breaking down sugar for energy Slowing
* the immune system's inflammatory response Regulating the
* metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats
Addison's disease is characterized by muscle weakness, reduced blood sugar, nausea, loss of appetite, weight loss, and
low blood pressure, which can impact the act of standing, causing dizziness or fainting. Skin changes also are common
in Addison's disease, with areas of hyperpigmentation or dark tanning that are mostly visible on scars, skin folds, toes,
lips, mucous membranes, and pressure points, such as the elbows, knees, and knuckles.
The overproduction of cortisol by the adrenal glands leads to Cushing's syndrome (Clayman 1989). Cushing's
syndrome also results when glucocorticoid drug hormones (such as hydrocortisone, prednisone, methylprednisolone, or
dexamethasone) are taken in excess for a prolonged period of time. These steroid hormones are often used to treat
inflammatory-related illnesses such as asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and some allergies.
The overproduction of cortisol in the adrenal glands can happen in two ways. A pituitary tumor could be producing too
much ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone, produced by the pituitary gland), stimulating the adrenals to grow and to
produce too much cortisol, or a benign or malignant tumor outside the pituitary such as in the lung, thymus gland,
pancreas, or other organs can produce too much ACTH. The pituitary form is classically called Cushing's disease.
Cushing's syndrome is characterized by central obesity; sparing of the arms and legs (thin extremities); a round,
reddish moon face; buffalo hump; and a protuberant abdomen. Many people with Cushing's syndrome experience
severe fatigue, weak muscles, ulcers, thin skin, high blood pressure, and high blood sugar. Irritability, anxiety, and
depression are also very common. Women with Cushing's syndrome will usually have excess hair growth (hirsuitism)
on their face, necks, chests, abdomens, and thighs. Their menstrual periods may become irregular or stop. Men may
have decreased fertility and desire for sex.
Constant stress and poor nutrition can weaken the adrenal glands. When stress continues over prolonged periods of
time, the adrenal glands can deplete the body's hormonal and energy reserves, and the glands may either shrink in size
or hypertrophy (enlarge). The overproduction of adrenal hormones caused by prolonged stress can weaken the immune
system and inhibit the production of white blood cells that protect the body against foreign invaders (in particular
lymphocytes and lymph node function). Adrenal dysfunction can disrupt the body's blood sugar metabolism, causing
weakness, fatigue, and a feeling of being run down. It can also interfere with normal sleep rhythms and produce a

wakeful, unrelaxing sleep state, making a person feel worn out even after a full night's sleep.
From: http://tuberose.com/Adrenal_Glands.html
After mid-life (menopause in women), the adrenal glands gradually become the major source of the sex hormones
circulating throughout the body in both men and women. These hormones have a host of physical, emotional and
psychological effects, from the level of your sex drive to the tendency to gain weight. Even the propensity to develop
certain kinds of diseases and your ability to respond to chronic illness is influenced significantly by the adrenal glands.
The more chronic the illness, the more critical the adrenal response becomes. The worse the overload relative to the
ability of the body to respond is, the worse the adrenal fatigue is. Each person has a different capacity to handle the
total stress load, and the capacity of each person varies over time and events.
Adrenal fatigue, or hypoadrenia, has been one of the most prevalent, yet rarely diagnosed conditions for over fifty
years. Adrenal fatigue affects millions of people around the world in many ways and for many reasons. Despite being
described in medical texts back in the 1800s, and despite a development of an effective treatment back in the 1930s,
most conventional physicians are unaware that this problem even exists!
With the body spilling large amounts of extracellular sodium and likewise retaining intercellular potassium, we can see
how an osmotic differential could develop in the patients tissues. If the osmotic difference (created by the increased
potassium seeking its intercellular position and the lowered extracellular sodium levels) is severe enough, the body will
most often attempt to correct this osmotic imbalance by allowing extracellular fluid to enter the cells. (It is also
possible that the body could kick the potassium out of the cell and into the extracellular fluids, and although this
occasionally occurs, we rarely see signs of this in the blood potassium levels.) The body is trying to dilute the
potassium in the cell with water, to bring the system into osmotic equilibrium. The cells take on water, and the patient
has swelling.
Often, these patients are placed on a diuretic by an unenlightened physician whose only basis for this prescription is the
patients symptoms. The diuretic in these patients rarely helps the condition and often aggravates the tendency toward
dehydration. Further, many diuretics act as adrenal (aldosterone) inhibitors, adding even more stress to the adrenals
and tending to make the patient worse in the long run.
When your aldosterone levels are low and you are dehydrated and sodium deficient, you may also crave potassium
because your body is sending you the message that your cells are low on potassium as well as sodium and water.
However, after consuming only a small amount of potassium containing foods or beverages (fruit, fruit juice, sodas
and commercial electrolyte replacement drinks), you will probably feel worse because the potassium/sodium ration will
be further disrupted.
What you really need in this situation is a combination of all three, water, salt and potassium in the right proportions.
One of the easiest ways to accomplish this is to drink small repeated doses of water accompanied by a little food
sprinkled with kelp powder. Kelp powder contains both potassium and sodium in an easily assimilated form.
Depending upon taste and symptoms, extra salt can be added. Sea salt is a better choice than regular refined table salt,
because it contains trace amounts of other minerals in addition to the sodium. Another choice is to drink a vegetable
juice blend containing some celery and chard and diluted with purified water.
Usually, within 24-48 hours, your hydration and electrolyte balance will have stabilized enough that you can proceed
to an adrenal-supporting diet. You must continue to be careful to drink salted water or vegetable juices 2-4 times
during the day, varying the amount of salt according to your taste, and you should avoid potassium-containing foods in
the morning when your coritsol and aldosterone levels are low. Never eat or drink electrolyte-depleting or diuretic
foods and beverages such as alcohol and coffee, especially if you have been out in the sun or are otherwise
dehydrated. One of the problems people with adrenal fatigue constantly deal with is a mild dehydration and sodium
depletion.
When you are already low on body fluids and electrolytes, as you are in this situation, you should always add salt to
your water. Do not drink soft drinks or electrolyte-rich sports drinks, like Gatorade, because they are high in potassium
OLD SCHOOL MEDECINE.txt[9/1/2015 12:05:39 AM]
and low in sodium, the opposite of what someone with low coritsol levels who is dehydrated needs. Commercial
electrolyte replacement drinks are designed for people who produce an excess of coritsol when exercising, not people
who are low on coritsol and aldosterone. Instead, yo are much better off having a glass of water with - 1 teaspoon
salt in it, or eating something salty with water to help replenish both sodium and fluid volumei fast, the body will call
on the adrenals to produce glucocorticoids to maintain a level of blood glucose which is adequate for a normal level of
activity. The glucocorticoids can elevate blood glucose by breaking down protein into carbohydrates through the
process of gluconeogenesis. A person on a fast puts a great strain on his adrenals and if he is already hypoadrenic, or
borderline hypoadrenic, he may suffer from many problems during the fast. Severely hypoadrenic persons should
almost never be put on a total fast. If they must be fasted, it should be a raw fruit and vegetable juice diet, with the
juice taken at frequent intervals. It is also best that they fast for only a day or two at a time.
To the body, hypoglycemia is a strong stressor, an emergency call to action that further drains already fatigued
adrenals. People who treat their own hypoglycemia like the common example given above are on a constant rollercoaster ride throughout the day with their blood sugar erratically rising and then falling after each sugar fix. This
throws not only coritsol and insulin levels into turmoil, but also the nervous system and the entire homeostasis of the
body. Therefore, by the end of the day, the person may feel nearly exhausted without having done anything. It might
take an entire evening or weekend to recover from this daily/weekly roller coaster ride. It has sometimes been
characterized as driving with both the brakes and the accelerator pushed to the floor at the same time.
Its been known for almost a century that people who suffer from low blood sugar frequently suffer from adrenal
fatigue. Its also been known that people who suffer from adrenal fatigue almost always have some form of irregular
blood sugar pattern, of which hypoglycemia is the most common. With hypoglycemia there are usually cravings for
sugar. There are real physiological reasons why these cravings exist.
When your adrenals are fatigued, their coritsol output is diminished and you have lower levels of circulating blood
coritsol. With lowered blood coritsol, your liver has a more difficult time converting glycogen into glucose. Fats,
proteins and carbohydrates, which normally can be converted into glucose, also cannot be as readily converted into
glucose. These reserve energy pools controlled by coritsol are critical to achieving and maintaining normal blood sugar
levels, especially during stress. Further complicating this matter is that during stress, insulin levels are increased
because the demand for energy in the cells is greater. Insulin opens the cell wall membranes to take in more glucose in
order to provide more energy to the cells. Without adequate coritsol levels to facilitate the conversion of glycogen, fats
and proteins to new glucose supplies, this increased demand is difficult or impossible to meet. All this combines to
produce low blood sugar.
People with adrenal fatigue are in a real bind because when they are under stress, demand for blood glucose increases,
but their fatigued adrenals cannot produce enough coritsol to generate higher glucose levels from reserves. In the
presence of increased insulin and decreased coritsol, blood sugar drops rapidly. When this happens at the same time as
an increasing demand for glucose, the stage is set for tragedy. In a physical survival situation this might lead to death
because response times slow down, thinking easily becomes confused, muscular strength is weakened, and other
problems occur which render the individual too helpless to effectively defend themselves or escapeyccumulates in the
adrenal glands and disrupts adrenal gland function.
Two primary nutrients for the adrenal glands are pantothenic acid and vitamin-C. A deficiency of pantothenic acid can
lead to adrenal exhaustion (chronic fatigue) and ultimately to destruction of the adrenal glands. A deficiency of
pantothenic acid also causes a progressive fall in the level of adrenal hormones produced. One of the largest tissue
stores of vitamin-C is the adrenals; it is exceeded only by the level of vitamin-C in the pituitary. Physical and mental
stress increases the excretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone. The increased adrenal activity, in turn, depletes both
vitamin-C and pantothenic acid from the glands.

Is male pattern hairloss also an indication of poisoning from drugs, foods, or environment?
Does that have to do with the hormone meats we eat? or any other lifestyle factors?
They said DHT cause Male baldness, but I don't think a good hormones DHT that does good job for men in many
ways would be the culprit.
Hunting tribe or pre-world war 2 Japanese are said to have very few male pattern hair loss. Could you shred some
light on this?
Sorry for seemingly to distract, but in part it isn't, because I want to know if we can tell the health from visible sign,
and one missed/ignored sign is the hair.
They said it is heredity, and again I smell lies here.

Male baldness can easily be caused by toxicity, from any source. We would strongly recommend a cleansing to
anyone who was suffering from it. That said, there are some cases which do appear to be hereditary.
Hormones are also a factor, and can be aggravated by the inappropriate use of DHEA supplements.

Anyways. I heard from a naturopathic doctor, Dr. Hyman, that our genes are constantly modified by our foods,

Rather than "heredity diseases", it's more like our positive or negative genes get turn off and on by these factors.
