What is Whole Body Hyperthermia?

Whole Body Hyperthermia is a high-tech medical procedure where systemic core body temperature is elevated. When the core temperature of the body is raised many functions are accelerated and become more efficient; most significantly, the immune system becomes more active and much more aggressive. Enzymatic activity increases several fold, making the immune system a decisive weapon to fight cancer. In addition cancer cells cannot cope with high temperatures as normal cells do, making them
an easier target for our immune system to attack and destroy.

Is Whole-Body Hyperthermia safe?

Yes, we understand that one of the body’s most common mechanisms of defense is fever; a series of physiological events that raises the temperature of the body to fight and destroy infections and other processes like cancer. Normal cells withstand heat with no harm, whereas cancer cells, already metabolically handicapped, fall prey to fever’s effects.

Why is Whole-Body Hyperthermia effective against cancer?

Medical hyperthermia attacks a cancer cell on two fronts: one, by strengthening the immune system to fight the cancer cell more aggressively, and second, by making the cancer cell more susceptible to damage, because of the metabolic effects of higher temperature and higher oxygen saturation that hyperthermia and, incidentally fever, produce in the body. Medical hyperthermia mimics fever, the natural defense system to help the body regain control over abnormal cellular behavior.

“Over the space of 40 years we built an integrative, complementary protocol and procedures that support
hyperthermia’s effectiveness and safety for the benefit of our patients.”

Why should Medical Hyperthermia be “Whole-Body”?

BioCare recognized over two decades ago that Whole-Body Hyperthermia is a powerful weapon for the treatment of cancer. Back in the 1990s we created a team of highly trained professionals to implement this procedure for the benefit of our patients. This is an in-house protocol performed under professional surveillance and care to guarantee effectiveness and safety. Focal, or localized, therapy for cancer can only target pre-identified cancer activity. Whole Body Hyperthermia, on the other hand, searches for and destroys or damages every cancer cell in the “whole” body. That is why Whole-Body Hyperthermia represents a monumental achievement in the
treatment of cancer.

We have documented thousands of cases, performed with virtually no side effects. We are proud to say medical hyperthermia is a sound, very effective and safe medical procedure. We are affiliated with international medical hyperthermia groups, and have attended important medical hyperthermia seminars and meetings around the world.
Over the space of 40 years we built an integrative, complementary protocol and procedures that support hyperthermia’s effectiveness and safety for the benefit of our patients.

Am I a candidate for this procedure?

Every case is unique; our team of doctors are always available to review the medical information of your case. We invite you to share and discuss your medical information with our team of experts in the treatment of cancer, and review the benefits of every medical protocol we offer for your personalized treatment plan.

Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS) is a common breast cancer diagnosis.  In fact, it is so common that it accounts for 20-25% of all breast cancer diagnoses in the United States.  But is it really cancer?

Two Conflicting Definitions

DCIS is a diagnosis that is given when abnormal or atypical cells are detected in one or more of the milk ducts of a woman’s breast.  The “In Situ” part means the abnormal cells are “in place” and have not spread outside the ducts into the surrounding breast tissue.  However, beyond that, there appear to be two conflicting definitions as to what DCIS really is.  Many doctors and medical sites describe it as an “early form of breast cancer.”  (Which would indicate that it is cancer.)  While other doctors and resources refer to it as a “pre-cancerous” state that might turn into cancer at some point.  (Which would indicate that it is not cancer.)   Yet, countless women who receive this diagnosis are told they have breast cancer and many are scared into extreme treatment procedures that include mastectomy, radiation, and/or hormone-blocking therapy ¾ all of which can cause significant negative side effects.

The late Dr. John R. Lee, world-renowned women’s hormones expert and author of What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Breast Cancer, wrote that DCIS is a condition involving abnormal cells that may turn into cancer, but have not yet done so.  He went on to explain that DCIS is essentially a benign condition where only a small fraction of cases will go on to become malignant cancer.  Other prominent physicians agree with Dr. Lee’s stance, such as Dr. Marleen Meyers, oncologist and director of the Perlmutter Cancer Center Survivorship Program at NYU Langone Health.  On the website, www.health.com, Dr. Meyers is quoted as saying, “I make sure to tell patients that, even though DCIS has the word ‘carcinoma’ in it, it’s not actually cancer.” 

Well-known OB/GYN and leading expert on women’s health issues, Dr. Christiane Northrup, is another physician who says DCIS is not cancer.  On her website, www.northrup.com, Dr. Northrup makes this impassioned statement:

“I have friends who have had bilateral mastectomies for DCIS.  This absolutely breaks my heart because DCIS is NOT cancer, though many doctors consider it to be  ‘Stage 0 cancer.’  And, depending upon what advice a woman is then given, she may well be advised to get treatment, which she rarely needs.  This is a shame because 99.9 percent of the time DCIS is something a woman will die with but not die from!”

For those women who are still unsure as to what to think, here is a tip:

DCIS is always referred to as “Breast Cancer, Stage 0”

That’s “Breast Cancer, Stage Zero.”  It would seem that if something is Stage Zero, it is not really something yet.  Logic indicates that Stage 1 would be the first stage of a disease, whereas Stage Zero would be before the first stage of the disease.  So, women who have been diagnosed with DCIS may want to say, “Whoa, not so fast with the breast cancer diagnosis!”

Treatment

There are a variety of options for treating DCIS, including a watch and wait approach or simple lumpectomy.  One helpful understanding comes from Dr. John Lee, who considered DCIS to be the result of metabolic dysfunction involving progesterone deficiency and estrogen dominance.  According to Dr. Lee, if the underlying hormonal cause is not corrected, the condition could develop in the other breast as well, or recur in the same breast after treatment.  Thus, his recommendation is to always include a focus on balancing one’s hormones and that each DCIS case should be evaluated individually as to whether surgery should also be involved or not.

How likely is it that DCIS will turn into cancer?  It seems this is difficult to assess with various sources suggesting widely varying guesses.  But the real issue is the starting definition and whether DCIS, when first diagnosed, is cancer or not.  The concern here is that great fear goes along with this very common “cancer” diagnosis and risky treatment procedures are often recommended.  Being as informed as possible may reduce the fear and allow a woman to feel she has time to look into the issues for herself and possibly get a second or even third medical opinion.

The good news is that, if DCIS is just a pre-cancerous condition, then a woman can rest easier knowing she does not have cancer and that either a watch and wait approach or a minimal surgical procedure may be all she needs!

With prostate cancer being the most common cancer diagnosis among men, an easy non-invasive blood test for the cancer marker called “prostate specific antigen,” or PSA, is a useful diagnostic tool.   But it is not a perfect cancer marker.  For example, up to three-quarters of all men with an elevated PSA do NOT have cancer, and about one-fifth of men known to have prostate cancer, have normal PSA levels.  Even so, to ensure the most accurate PSA count possible, there are certain things a man can do ¾ or more accurately, can AVOID doing  ¾ before getting his PSA level tested.  Abstaining from sex for up to 48 hours before having one’s blood drawn is one of them.

A quick Internet search reveals numerous medical sites recommending that men abstain from any type of sex for 1-2 days before a PSA test (with 48 hours being a commonly recommended length of time.)  Otherwise, a man’s test results may be skewed and indicate an artificially elevated PSA count.  Such medical sites recommending this are Prostate.net, MedicalNewsToday.com and NHS.UK (the National Health Service of England), among others.  Why do these public resources recommend abstaining?  Because it has been found that ejaculation is often associated with a temporary increase in the amount of PSA in the blood.

Other Activities to Avoid As Well

However, keep in mind that ejaculation is not the only non-cancer reason a man’s PSA may be temporarily elevated.  For example, it has long been known that some medical conditions, such as a urinary tract infection, can also artificially raise a man’s PSA count.  Moreover, many sources recommend that, for 48 hours before a test, men should also avoid any physical activity that puts extra pressure on the prostate gland.  This includes riding a bike or motorcycle, having anal sex, or undergoing a prostate biopsy.  Even getting a digital rectal exam (DRE), where a doctor feels the shape and texture of a man’s prostate gland by inserting his gloved fingers into the rectum, can temporarily increase a man’s PSA count due to the pressure put on the gland.  This can be particularly confounding because it is common for a doctor to perform a DRE just before his patient is sent off to get his blood drawn for the PSA test.  Thus, men may want to ask their doctor to have the blood drawn first, then perform the DRE in order to achieve a more reliable reading.

Various studies have come up with differing conclusions, however, and this has sparked a controversy over whether certain activities need to be avoided before a PSA test or not.  Stephen B. Strum, MD. is an oncologist who believes there is enough reason for concern to take a cautionary stance.  In his article on the PSA controversy, published in the December, 2012 issue of Life Extension Magazine, Dr. Strum stated:

“The numerous articles on the effect of ejaculation on PSA, and free PSA are not in uniform agreement; and in light of this unresolved controversy I recommend that men going for PSA testing should be informed that no ejaculation should occur for 48 hours prior to PSA testing.  In 30 years of work in this field, I have never had a single patient acknowledge that this has been discussed with him.  In addition, any kind of manipulation of the prostate ¾ be it a DRE (digital rectal exam) or bicycle riding should be avoided as well.  Given the lack of consensus findings on all of these issues, there is no downside to following these recommendations.”

Why there is a lack of agreement among researchers is unclear, but other experts besides Dr. Strum also believe there is enough evidence to warrant precaution.  For example, Dr. Stacy Loeb, an internationally recognized prostate cancer researcher with 290 published peer-reviewed articles and the host of the Men’s Health Show on Sirius XM110, explains that:

“Trauma to the prostate and ejaculation may affect PSA levels, so it is a good idea to avoid activities such as vigorous cycling and ejaculation for a few days before getting a PSA test.”

Why You Don’t Want an Artificially High PSA Score

Is it really worth it for a man to abstain from sex, motorcycle and bike riding, and some other activities, for 48 hours ¾ not to mention having to tell his doctor that he wants his blood drawn first before the DRE is performed?  Yes!  The most important reason may be that a needle biopsy of the prostate gland is often recommended for men with a PSA of 4 or more to check if they have cancer.  However, the needle biopsy procedure involves multiple needle pricks through the wall between the rectum and the prostate gland and there is a some risk of the procedure causing an infection that can be serious.  Also, according to the Diagnostic Center for Disease in Sarasota, Florida, if a man does have cancer in his prostate, then the needle biopsy procedure, with its multiple needle pricks, may spread the cancer cells outside the gland.  This can potentially cause a small localized tumor to turn into metastasized cancer sooner than it normally would have if left alone.   For more information, readers can go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation’s website at www.pcf.org and download a free 2019 Prostate Cancer Patient Guide.

Author of OUTSMART YOUR CANCER: Alternative, Non-Toxic Treatments that Work.

Prostate cancer is one the most commonly diagnosed types of cancer and testosterone-blocking drugs, such as Lupron and Casodex, are often prescribed for it.  However, conventional medicine has NOT had significant success curing prostate cancer, especially once the cancer has metastasized, and this is largely because of some common misunderstandings about the PSA and testosterone that have propagated throughout mainstream medicine.  These misunderstandings should have been challenged and abandoned decades ago.  But since they weren’t, men with prostate cancer need to educate themselves and gain a better understanding than their doctors.

First, here are some basics about prostate cancer.  For most of the past century, prostate cancer occurred primarily in older men and was slow-growing in most cases ¾ so slow-growing, in fact, that men over 65 could often simply live with their cancer without receiving any treatment at all.  This was because they had a good chance of dying of old age before dying from their cancer.  However, according to cancer treatment specialist, Dr. Contreras of the Oasis of Hope Hospital, recent years are showing more and more cases of aggressive (or fast-growing) prostate cancers being diagnosed.  Men at younger and younger ages are developing prostate cancer and the younger cases tend to have a higher incidence of aggressive forms.

Since men are being diagnosed with prostate cancer at younger and younger ages and often face more aggressive forms of it today, they don’t have the luxury of being able to ‘live with it’ as was common in years past.   Thus, there are many more men today who MUST receive effective treatment or their prostate cancer will kill them.  Unfortunately, the types of treatment offered by conventional medicine are problematic.  The four main conventional options are:  (1) Surgery, (2) Radiation, (3) Chemotherapy, and

(4) Hormone Therapy (hormone-blocking drugs).

The surgical option involves removal of all or part of the prostate gland.  This may sound good at first, but it is often an imasculating procedure with a high likelihood of some degree of impotence occurring as a result.  Also, some men experience difficulty holding their urine post-surgery.  Radiation also sounds powerful and may seem to be a good option, but can actually causes localized prostate cancer cells to mutate into more aggressive forms in some cases and provides no curative benefit once the cancer has metastasized.  Unfortunately, chemotherapy has no long-term curative effect on prostate cancer, either, in most cases ¾ especially once the cancer has metastasized.  That just leaves hormone-blocking drugs, and this is where the MOST ludicrous and dangerous misunderstandings occur in conventional prostate cancer treatment.

One of the biggest fallacies in mainstream medicine is the idea that blocking testosterone will inhibit the growth of prostate cancer!

There is no actual proof that blocking testosterone inhibits prostate cancer growth.  There is only proof that it lowers the PSA count in most cases.  (I’ll get to that next.)  Moreover, prostate cancer has always been much less common in men between the ages of 18 and 25, which is when testosterone levels are typically at their highest.  In fact, years ago, prostate cancer was virtually never seen in younger men at all and is only being observed now in young men because ALL types of cancer are showing up at younger and younger ages.  You would think that, if testosterone does in fact feed or promote prostate cancer in any way, then we’d have always seen the highest rates of this type of cancer in younger men.  Common sense tells us that testosterone is not the culprit, but we don’t have to rely on common sense.  There is plenty of scientific evidence to back this up, which I go into detail about in Chapter 20 of my book.

The really sad thing is that, not only does testosterone NOT promote prostate cancer, but lowering testosterone activity in a man always causes the man to become estrogen-dominant, and estrogen-dominance always promotes cancer growth!  If you don’t believe that hormone-blocking drugs cause estrogen-dominance, just look at the common side effects of Lupron and Casodex.  Englarged breasts, hot flashes, and reduced libido are all signs of estrogen-dominance in a man.

So, why do doctors think that blocking testosterone will reduce cancer growth?  Well, it’s because artificially reducing testosterone, does reliably make a man’s PSA count go down.  So, that’s good, right?  Wrong.  A man’s body uses testosterone to make PSA.  It’s like needing flour to make a cake.  No flour, no cake.  Likewise, reduced testosterone, reduced PSA count.  The sinister problem is that oncologists have never been taught this concept, so when they give a man Lupron or Casodex and see his PSA count go down, they think that means the cancer is going away.  It doesn’t.  It just means that the man’s body does not have enough flour to make the cake.  It’s as simple as that!

Plus, both testosterone and PSA have properties that actually help a man’s body fight the cancer.  So, by not allowing his body to utilize the full amount of testosterone and PSA he is able to make, and by making the man estrogen-dominant, the medical system is actually promoting cancer growth in men with prostate cancer.

It may be time for men to ‘just say no’ to hormone-blocking drugs.  And it may also be time for a fair evaluation of the true effectiveness of conventional prostate cancer treatment versus the much more effective non-toxic options that are available in the world of alternative medicine ¾ options that CAN even cure advanced metastasized cancer in many cases.

For a more detailed explanation of how testosterone and PSA function in regards to prostate cancer, you can read Chapter 20 of my book, OUTSMART YOUR CANCER or go to my website and blog at www.OutsmartYourCancer.com.

Most of us know of a family member or friend who got a clean scan following cancer treatment and was declared “all clear” by their oncologist.  The doctor may have even said “Looks like we got it all!”  But then, a few months later, the cancer was back.  (Sort of like they got it all, but now it’s here again.) What REALLY happened was they never got it all in the first place.

The important concept to understand is that a clear scan does NOT mean no cancer.  It just means there are no groupings of cancer cells big enough for the unaided human eye to see on a scan. 

Remember, all cells of the body are microscopic in size and that includes cancer cells.  I was told by a biochemist specializing in cancer that about 9 million cancer cells can fit on the head of a pin.  (The old-fashioned type of sewing pin.)   A tiny dot that size ¾ which could represent millions of cancer cells ¾ or even many tiny dots that size, could easily be missed when looking at a PET, MRI, or CT scan.  Thus, the first clear scan after treatment should never be taken to mean the cancer is all gone.

One might think, “Then treatment should be continued a little longer.”  But when using highly toxic conventional treatments, such as chemotherapy and/or radiation, the treatment HAS to be stopped as soon as the scans or other tests can’t “see” any cancer.  This is because continuing treatment any longer than absolutely necessary runs too high a risk of killing the patient!   For this reason, and because there also have to be breaks in the treatment in order to not kill the patient with during the treatment phase, it is almost always the case that there are still active cancer cells in the patient’s body when they get their first clear scan.  The doctors know this, even though they may allow you to believe you are free of cancer.  That’s why the phrase “You are in remission” is used so often, not “You are cured.” And, toxic conventional treatments so often depress the person’s immune system, any cancer cells left active in the body have an easy time of proliferating and spreading once again.  (Which is what they are good at.)

This is the roller-coaster of remission-recurrence-remission-recurrence . . . often until the patient dies. I refer to it as “deadly” because of how each round of toxic treatment not only kills some cancer, but it also weakens the patient’s vital organs and immune system.  Thus, every time the cancer grows back again, the person is most likely in an even weaker state.  It is a travesty that oncologists don’t take responsibility for the shortcomings of the treatment when this happens because the patient often ends up feeling that he or she has failed somehow when their cancer recurs.  In reality, they did NOT fail.  It was the type of treatment they were given that failed.

Could it be different with an alternative cancer cure?  Yes!  And the reason is because alternative cancer treatments are NOT toxic, thus breaks in the treatment do not have to be inserted, and the patient does not have to stop the treatment as soon as they get an all-clear scan.

Alternative Cancer Treatments Allow for Continual Use

Here, readers may be exasperated and want to say once more, “Yes, but don’t cancer treatments HAVE to be toxic?  How else can the cancer be killed?”  The answer is that cancer CAN be killed with non-toxic, smart approaches and the reason is because these types of alternative approaches target certain characteristics of cancer cells and also allow for continual use.

“Continual use” is an extremely important concept and the main reason why non-toxic approaches are BETTER at bringing about long-term cures than toxic ones.  Because alternative approaches are non-toxic and don’t harm healthy cells, a cancer patient can use them on a constant basis ¾ every day, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week without breaks in treatment ¾ for as many months or years as it takes to get rid of all the cancer and then for a while after scans show all clear, just to be on the safe side.

A Woman Who Avoided the Roller Coaster

A good example of how powerful the continual use of a non-toxic treatment can be comes from an Australian woman named Tricia.  Tricia did not know she had cancer until she was suddenly diagnosed in 2006 with such a late stage of breast cancer that it had already spread to most of her bones.  The cancer was estrogen receptor positive, and besides being in one breast, it was also heavily metastasized to the bones of her shoulders, ribs, pelvis, hips, legs, spine and even to her skull.  Her doctors did not attempt to cure her because they knew that was hopeless.  They simply went in surgically to put titanium rods into some of her bones so that she would not crumble.

Tricia already knew about the liquid alternative called “Protocel,” so she decided to make that non-toxic formula her primary approach.  To give Protocel time to get rid of her cancer, she also agreed in the beginning to  5 doses of radiation and 4 doses of chemo along with 5 months of the estrogen-blocking drug Tamoxifen.   Tricia was also very aggressive in her use of Protocel and took it every 4 hours around the clock every single day, including overnight.

Tricia’s recovery was laboriously slow but steady because, as the cancer came out of her bones, her bones had to heal.  She could only lie in bed at first.  Then she was able to use a wheel chair to get around.  As she got better, she was able to walk with a walker.  Finally, she could use a cane until she no longer even needed the cane and was truly cancer-free.  It took over two years to achieve completely clear scans, but she continued to take the Protocel for a long time after she was in remission to make sure that she got every last microscopic cancer cell.

Happily, Tricia enjoyed her new chance at life and loved interacting with her new granddaughter.  She helped many other cancer patients in Australia to recover and had many years of living life to the fullest.  Unfortunately, she died suddenly years later due to a blood infection from an infected tooth.  All of us who knew this loving, generous person were devastated.  Her daughter emailed me to inform me that an autopsy had been performed and Tricia had still been cancer-free when she died, which was at least some consolation.

Tricia’s recovery was truly phenomenal, given how late stage her cancer was, and not everyone at this late stage of disease will have complete success.  But the truth is that there are many case stories presented in my book of people with metastasized cancer who were told by their oncologist that there was no cure for them, who then went on to cure themselves through the use of a non-toxic approach such as Protocel, Cesium High pH Therapy, Laetrile, Flaxseed Oil and Cottage Cheese, Dr. Burzynski’s Antineoplastons, or one of the other “alternative” cancer cures out there.  I eventually lost count of how many thriving people had said their doctor told them to get their affairs in order.

Though there are never any guarantees, but Tricia’s story and others like hers tell us that these types of recoveries CAN happen in the world of non-toxic cancer treatments.  And it’s all because of two things:

(1)  Alternative approaches have powerful ways of killing or otherwise getting rid of cancer, and

(2)  Alternative approaches are always non-toxic, which makes it possible to avoid the deadly roller-coaster of “remission, recurrence, remission, recurrence . . . ” until one dies.

How would you survive cancer? Coping with it can be overwhelming, confusing, frightening, and frequently approaches dealing with it are very intense on the body with many side effects.

What is cancer as we “see” it? Cancer in a body as we “see” it is caused when the flow of Universal Energies are blocked as those Energies cannot flow through the body, but instead “accumulate” causing damage at a cellular level. The more aggressive the cancer is, the bigger the stagnation and retention of the Energy in the body.

Our process begins with understanding the basics such as what type of cancer it is, is it localized (tumor) or spread out through the body (metastasize), what stage is it at, and what remedies have been sought prior to coming to us.

We arrive at this information in several basic ways, most of which are observed by us during a preliminary informational conversation with the client. That discussion allows us to become familiar with what the client understands their condition is, how they connect with that situation within themselves, and also helps us ascertain the general emotional state of the client. During that initial process, we are able to observe in detail the various layers of their aura that are involved with that current condition. In turn, that assists us in determining how much we can help them, and how long that overall energy balancing process may take.

We do understand that the earlier the stage, the less is needed to overcome the condition, and vice versa. We then scan several layers of the Aura Field. With this information, we are ready then to deploy several of our SiddhuPrana™ proprietary energy balancing techniques that provide thorough and sustained outcomes.

In our experiences over the past twenty plus years, we have found that results can start from the moment we begin our work, and continue with significant activity for up to several weeks after the first session. At that time, we then assess and determine if additional sessions are needed.

As an integrative medical doctor I want to share with you the connection between cancers and parasites. Few doctors give much attention to the possibility of parasitic infection when it comes to initiation or continuation of cancers. A partial reason for this is that doctors and patients are under a false belief that our public health and sanitation is effective enough to prevent parasite problems.

Any veterinarian will tell you that our soil and surface water are just as parasite infested as any other part of the world. Some benefit is achieved by water purification. But our food, insect and airborne exposures put us on par with our neighbors in less developed countries of the world.

In practical terms, doctors believe that most people do not really have a parasite problem. This is fostered by the large number of stool parasite tests that are reported negative by conventional labs. As a medical lab technician in my earlier years I can tell you that the responsibility to examine specimens for parasites under the microscope is relegated to a low time and effort priority given all the other testing that labs must accomplish in the course of a day. This is really unfortunate because parasites are present in most people when the specimens are prepared properly and adequate time is spent examining multiple microscope slides thoroughly.

Diagnostic medical parasitology is the branch of medical science that examines body fluids and tissues for the presence of parasites. I have been involved in this since 1966 when I served as an Air Force microbiology technician in Viet Nam. After medical school and a residency in family medicine I continued my career as a parsitologist by setting up and running labs in practices where I worked. Now that I am partially retired, I specialize in parasite exams for people who want to know what is really happening to them.

This brings us to the connection between parasites and cancer. A true statement is that chronic inflammation is a seedbed for chronic degenerative diseases including cancers. In my work with cancer patients, I found that at a certain point in recovery the healing process will plateau and may not advance until we uncover and correct any existing parasite problems.

Parasites come in many forms. Some are actual worms such as tapeworms and roundworms. Others are flukes. Many are single celled protozoans. The fungi such as yeast and molds along with pathogenic bacteria and viruses are parasites. These organisms fulfill the criteria that part or all of their life cycle require the human host for protection, nutrition or reproduction.

Most parasites produce toxic waste. Some of them destroy our cells. Some invade our tissues. Some steal our food. Some do all of these things. As tissues become inflamed from such things happening, cancers can arise. One way to think of cancer is an attempted healing response gone awry.

Gastrointestinal symptoms commonly found with parasites are flatulence, diarrhea, abdominal bloating, abdominal cramping, constipation, malabsorption, maldigestion, bloody or odorous stool, mucus and leaky gut.  Systemic symptoms can be one or more of the following: fatigue, nervous/sensory disorders, pain, skin disorders, allergies, nausea, muscle weakness/pain, immune deficiencies, headache, fever, insomnia, night sweats and weight changes.

Who needs a good parasite exam? The truthful answer is – we all do. Let’s take some examples of how we can become parasitized.

The oral route is the most common route into the body. Parasites can be found in the soil that clings to our vegetables. Protozoan single cell parasites like Cryptosporidium and Giardia can be recovered in drinking water as some resist the chemical treatment and filtration processes. Tapeworms or their eggs can be present in uncooked meats and fish and adhere to our skin during preparation. The pets we love can get us infected when they lick us. Barefoot activities outside can be a source of opportunity for roundworms such as Ascaris to directly penetrate skin. Insects are known to carry a whole host of parasitic organisms. Even treatments such as taking antibiotics can promote difficulties with yeast like Candida.

In a recent month I tested 54 stool specimens. Roundworm eggs were present in 25 people; half were infested with yeast and most had one or more protozoans. What is remarkable is that all the cancer patients had parasites and of those without cancer only one was parasite free! What we think is happening is that the parasites create tissue inflammation and destruction which bogs down the immune system and provides fuel for cancer growth and invasion by yeast. The yeast feed on the dying tissue and they secrete more toxins that further destroy tissue keeping the cycle of inflammation (which promotes cancer) going. By eliminating the parasites and the yeast the immune system is freed up to do its job of attacking and resolving the cancer.

I offer a very thorough urine and stool parasite testing program to any individual who requests to be checked. My program is called the ParaWellness Research Program. I ask my clients to join the Program as a volunteer Research Associate which allows freedom of exchange of all the information we glean from testing their samples.

Upon your request a specimen collection kit is sent to you. The samples of urine and stool are sent back, processed, thoroughly examined and a report generated. I arrange a time to visit with you by phone regarding the findings and answer questions about their significance and treatment. A hard copy of the report with information about each parasite found and treatment recommendations is sent to you in booklet form.

My mission continues to be raising awareness of the actual level of our parasite problem and the natural ways of parasite elimination. I stand ready to assist you in this endeavor. Thank you.

For many years now, we at Night Hawk Minerals have been working with natural radiation hormesis using stones that we mine that emit a low dose of radiation. This is called “Radiation Hormesis” and is an old, but extremely effective healing modality. I would encourage those that are dealing with a degenerative disease, such as cancer, to go to our website, www.nighthawkminerals.com , and research “Radiation Hormesis”. We have worked with some of the best nuclear physicist and doctors in the world and could go on for days about the success we have had just using “radiation hormesis”, and more importantly what we have learned, but what we are going to do is go over the 3-Divine Protocol.

The 3-Divine Protocol was put together from years of working with clients and by going with what we see, not what “they” say. Although we have been backed for many years by the works of TD Luckey and others who grasp the abilities of using low dose radiation, what we have been observing is that it is actually the FREQUENCIES that the natural material emits, and not so much the harmful effects of isotopes that “they depict”.

We spend most of the year traveling around the country working with healers and their clients and have been extremely successful at putting a halt on these degenerative diseases and expediting repair of tissue , but there was always a very few that we had a hard time getting over the plateau they could not seem to pass. After some pretty unique experiences, we had seen that over 90% of the problems we were encountering were parasitic based. In our journeys we have found that mainstream medical does not even really look for parasites, and those that do, a majority of them were guessing on the specie of parasite or for that matter, even the correct remedy. This is your life at stake!!! For some time we had made an arrangement with friends of ours in Africa to do the testing for our people and provide the natural remedies. This worked fine for a while, until the cost for their remedies were too expensive for our clients. It was then I called our Medical Director who has followed our work since 2006. He explained that he was getting ready to leave mainstream medical, was a parasitologist, had the equipment and experience to help the cause. I explain to people that I want our medical doctor, looking at your stool sample, and telling me exactly what eggs he is seeing! I also want a remedy that is targeted for that specific parasite or parasites! We have done this.

As we had worked this program for some time, we realized that we needed some way of getting the right nutrition to our people that would put everyone on at least some kind of beneficial foundation. After praying for answers, one day it was delivered. We heard about a man that had been working with the Amish for years and was getting fantastic results using angstrom size minerals. We drove across the country and met with these people. I have also talked with their Amish clients. We were very excited and started working with our clients and the minerals. It has made a world of difference and made the understanding of this protocol complete.

The 3-Divine Protocol stands for Frequencies, Minerals, and Parasite Identification and Elimination. When someone purchases our radiation hormesis stone products, you are immediately set up with one of our Wellness Instructors who will guide you on the use of the stones, monitor your body responses, and help you go through the 3-Divine Protocol in sequence. We do not charge extra for this. We would then direct you to obtain a stool sample kit from our doctor, who will then be processing your samples. During this time frame, we have been putting people on a body of foundation minerals for ten days, followed by a cleanse, using minerals to clean the bile ducts and lymph system. This process is also supported by the people who provide the minerals. We applaud their support with our clients. By this time we have usually received the parasite test results back from our Doctor, and the GREAT thing about this is that the symptoms of the parasite usually always match up with the health issues we are addressing. Once you know what the problem is, you are in control. Once you are in control, the fear goes away! After we have identified what has been damaging the tissue, we then go back to the Doctor for his natural remedies for THAT parasite or parasites.

We possess mountains of information pertaining to each component of the 3-Divne Protocol and can answer questions for those that need help. To briefly explain and give an overview of what we are accomplishing, you have the right minerals, the right life giving frequencies, you have vibration. Life! The only thing that can stop that is some entity that is damaging the tissue. We have been using this protocol now for over six months with many clients and have so much success with it that we feel it is now time to introduce our work to as many people that are in need. This protocol is cost effective, affordable, and has the support provided by three different groups. All working together with our clients and each other. If you want to know more, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We are the real deal!

by Dr. Victoria Goldsten, HD 
In 1972 I was 18 years old and in nursing school. After I completed a portion of my lecture classes, I was then sent out on the floors of the hospital; first on the medial units, then surgical units, and lastly on the specialty units and in surgery. During my surgical rotation I had my first experience with cancer. I assisted in a breast cancer surgery where I carried the tumor to the pathologists for a biopsy. He did the biopsy but already knew by looking at the specimen that it was, in fact, cancer. He had me touch the tumor to see what it felt like. I will never forget that moment and how scary it was to see what has taken the lives of so many.

Although I never thought my goal as a practitioner was to help those with cancer, I came to realize that overtime I was to provide that care for clients with cancer for they came to me looking for help. Now as the Director and practitioner at the Washington Institute of Natural Medicine I have realized that, through so many requests, I needed to offer care that augments conventional treatment. As each new client came to me I did further research on homeopathics, herbals, energy work, hypnosis, colon hydrotherapy, detoxification treatments, and guided imagery.

I am not against conventional medical care but rather advise my clients to see their medical doctors. I then do the best I can with natural methods to help them become more comfortable and live longer and happier. Although this information is antidotal I have helped clients live beyond the expectations of the conventional doctors. I can not make guarantees nor can I make miracles but I will do the best with my staff and the medical doctors that treat them.

In my selection of care I am careful to select treatment that will not interfere with chemo therapy and conventional medications. I select natural therapies that augment conventional therapies and assist with the side effects.

If you or a loved one wish to have complementary care added to conventional cancer treatment please feel free to contact our office. I work side by side with experienced practitioners working with cancer patients.
