I could never forget the time I was eczema sick. I could never forget the time that my brother was dying of his psoriasis. All those times concentrating on treating the skin when you realize that it is all futile. The skin was not the problem. The skin was merely being used as a backup to excrete toxins from the blood because our livers were impaired… not flowing properly cirrhotic. Continue Reading
Suspected Amoebiasis Instantly Addressed by the Overman Zapper
My wife had sudden stomach pain, gurgling, diarrhoea on Christmas morning December 25, 2009. She thinks it must have been the raw blue marlin. Although everyone else ate the same fish, she thinks she got it from there. Only today January 4, 2010 does she feel she has finally overcome her suspected amoeba infestation.
This wasn’t the first time, she’s suffered a couple of times before. When the only tool she knew was medical, she was hospitalized several times before. When we had barefoot herbalist mh herbal dewormer, she took that and that worked for her one time. When we still had zappers, her favourite was the Don Croft portable zapper, she zapped. But after the big Ondoy flood of September 2009, we lost our home and all our healing tools, all our herbals and all the electronic zappers we depended on for emergencies.
When you have something as ubiquitous as the several zappers we had, we took them for granted. Sure they were there, felt bad, zap, think nothing more of it. But now that all of the zappers and herbals are gone, it just goes to show how much suffering one needs to go through.
My wife initially tried fully cooked beef steaks… it hardens stools, but the tummy gurgling remains. My wife tried Bieler’s soup with zucchini, string beans and parsley… it hardens stiils, but the tummy gurgling remains. We in the house didn’t really notice how much suffering she was going through and only noticed it after the new year celebrations. She was getting thinner. And she was almost the kill joy at new year morning who wanted to go home immediately. Then she confessed that she was still sick and had the idea that she needed a zapper.
It was just the new year and all the zapper sellers were closed. So we resorted to contacting friends with zappers. Luckily Jackie had one and she brought it with her during her new year outing. She just got back the evening of the 2nd and I drove up to her on the morning of the 3rd to borrow her Overman Zapper.
My wife immediately zapped. 7 minutes on, 20 minutes off, 7 minutes on, 20 minutes off, 7 minutes on — that was the Hulda Clark standard cycle. She did this 3 times in 1 day. At the end of January 3, she said she was feeling better, but not completely well yet. This 4th of January she zapped in the morning and nothing more the rest of the day. This evening she said she felt completely well. Good job Overman Zapper.
It was nice to know my wife had a mental map, a memory that zappers worked for her, that herbal dewormers worked for her. Now we have to tool up again… tools for healing. Invest in zappers, invest in herbals. You never know when you might need them.
Sorting through the various diet practitioners at Raw Paleo Forum
Raw Paleo Forum is one of the best resources to find healthy people and find out about the variances in their diet practices. Thanks to Craig and Geoff who started the forum and had the vision to include a diverse range of raw paleo diet variations in the forum. The non practitioner would think well, these guys eat raw meat, raw vegs and raw fruit, what kind of variations would there be? Mind you there are a lot. Since there are so few practitioners of raw paleo diet, there is no sense in splintering, but putting them together actually makes sense.
Witness the discussion in a thread about long term zero carbers or pure raw carnivores where they only consume raw meat and water. Paleo Donk has a very nice synthesis of the different raw paleo diet practitioners:
The degree to how “poisonous” carbs are is directly related to how sensitive we are to insulin. At one end we have new borns who must have heavy carb intake and who would function worse without them. At the other end we have diabetics/epileptics who cannot handle carbs and will function optimally as a carnivore. Everyone else falls somewhere in between.
Finding out what is optimal is a different story. We have all heavily convoluted the situation by eating decades worth of garbage that has us in this position. Our bodies do not work like they were intended and each one of has different problems with different methods of eating. Just because one method works for us now does not mean it would work just as well for us as small children with uncompromised systems. Our systems are all compromised in one way or the other.
Tyler seems to get sick at merely the sight of cooked foods, where I can eat cooked meat all day long for months and be in great health. William finds that pemmican is vastly superior than any other food where others have not found this to be so. This what makes the discovery so interesting. We are all so different. We each are all uniquely damaged goods and we all need uniquely different treatments to achieve superior health again. One method for all does not seem to work.
Simply saying that carbs are poisonous is too simplistic and does not take a look at the full spectrum of issues. Tyler, for instance, absolutely needs some carbohydrate intake or his system will fail. Carbs are certainly not poisonous for him, they help him maintain optimal health. Same for many other members of the forum.
I also once thought that eating meat and water would work for everyone if they gave it enough time. This is just not realistic and although just meat and water does work extremely well (and is likely optimal) for many it is not simply the solution for everyone’s problems. This is where ZIOH can get people in trouble, they do not like to investigate anything other than meat and water. They are a bit too one dimensional, although their one dimention works extraordinarily well for some people.
I’ve noticed that ZIOH discussion forums have died down recently and almost come to a complete halt. There is very little new discussion and some members have even expressed their approval of this. When you only look at just meat and water I suppose their is very little to discuss. This is why I enjoy this forum so much is that the discussion is very broad and there is no general answer for everyone. It is multidimensional.
ZIOH is the pure carnivore only diet forum where members eat only meat and water… mostly cooked meat.
In the raw paleo forum, members are inquisitive and experiment and try out the variations and report their results. Paleo Donk satisfied my observation by putting in into nice concise words. Thanks!

Gall Bladder Removed on my brother in law’s wife in the USA
We just heard the news that my brother in law’s wife in the USA had her gall bladder removed surgically. She felt pain before the new year. Her doctor said she didn’t need her gall bladder anyway… she can live without it… justifying the need to operate on her and cut out her gall bladder.
The gall bladder is needed. This organ regulates the amount of bile you need for digestion of certain foods. Your body automatically knows how much bile to output to digest certain foods. Do your own math to see what happens without the gall bladder.
For them the immediate danger has passed. But for us family here who know how to cure gall bladder pain via simple liver flushing it was a blow to her health. We are a liver flushing family, we know, do, have done routine group liver flushes together. Unfortunately for relatives who live a great distance, they don’t know about liver flushing. What other bit of info they must know is that her liver needs cleansing as well, and even if her gall bladder has been removed she can still do liver cleanses.
In my side of my family I was so glad to hear of my uncle’s wife in the province who suffered the same gall bladder pain. Being deathly afraid of surgery, she remembered my ramblings about liver flushing. She sought the help of someone locally knowledgeable and did her own liver flushes. This aunt cured herself of her own gall bladder stones for a few hundred pesos. She kept her gall bladder, cleaned her liver, pooped out the stones. She is empowered.
So if you think about it, it is a good idea to keep rambling and rambling about health empowerment to friends and family. Of course there are those who do not appreciate it and will hate you for it, but there are those lives you touch and save. I choose to ramble, the decision is always theirs.
Marikina – Infanta Highway via the Sierra Madre Mountains now open to vehicular traffic albeit Dangerously so
We started the new year 2010 January 1 with a bang. We checked in to a Pranjetto Hills cottage, 51 kilometers from White Plains in Quezon City via Cogeo. In the morning as we were checking out we asked the hotel lady if the new road towards Infanta, Quezon Province was open to vehicular traffic, she said a most definite yes, her friend who is a fish dealer just passed by the new road.
Oh yes, it was time for an adventure. I got my wife to agree, we thought infanta was just 1 hour away. But it turned out to be 3 hours away with the land slide riddled roads, narrow roads which you could fall off cliffs and rough un-cemented un-paved roads. Ondoy did a lot of damage up in these mountains too.
The view was just majestic, awe inspiring, this is one trek no tour operator has come up with yet. We were one of the first civilians to go through the road… because it is unfinished. And it is dangerous. Do not attempt this when it is raining, the roads may get muddy in some parts. Your vehicle must be in tip top shape, a lot of dead cell phone spots, even with Smart the nationwide network. Travel only during daylight, there are no street lights.
It is sparsley populated though, families have sprung up. Maybe women who like construction workers formed families and lived in the mountains and gave birth and raised children. This project has gone on too long. They say from president Marcos times.
There were military soldiers. One even nicely asked us where we were going. He saw a family man with a wife and kids and a nannie. Nope, no rebel soldiers in this van. We took a Toyota Innova.
And after an almost 3 hour trek, we made it. Awesome! We were in infanta after 75 kilometers from Pranjetto Hills. So if you are coming from White Plains, the whole trip to Infanta via the new Marikina – Infanta road is some 126 kilometers. I bet if the roads were paved you can make the trip in 2.5 hours. Maybe before the end of this year the roads will be all paved.
We took pictures! Yeah. Majestic end of the trip you see the river ending up in the Pacific ocean. What a sight. On the way back, we took the normal route via Antipolo town proper as I saw that after lunch the clouds were descending upon the mountains. Don’t want to drive in that cloud cover. Too risky. In my first scouting clouds did come down and my visibility was reduced to just 40 feet.
In Infanta I got some fishy souvenirs. Bought a full styrofoam container of freshly caught fish and put ice in it. Yummy fresh. And cheap too.
What a way to start the year! Happy New Year 2010!
Escaped the New Year Firecracker smoke by checking in to Pranjetto Hills on top of the Sierra Madre mountain range
It is a new year tradition in the Philippines to light your own fireworks every midnight on new year. As a result, towns and cities mostly wind up full of deadly, asthma causing smoke. Every year since our kids were born, my wife and I always spent enough to get out of the city to escape the smoke. Last year we were in the Sierra Madre hotel. This year we chose Pranjetto Hills… just 2 kilometers after Sierra Madre hotel.
Last year we were disappointed with the 0 star accommodations at Sierra Madre. Poor staff training and poor maintenance of facilities. Pranjetto Hills is no different. 0 star rating just the same. Staff are provincial folk from nearby Sampaloc town. What would you expect?
For example, when we arrived at Pranjetto Hills the single man left in charge looked us up and did not find our names in the reservation list. Yet we reserved by making a phone call just the day before. Plus they never asked us to register our names in their log book, they probably didn’t have any log book. I paid P 2,700 in the morning and the girl said they ran out of receipts! When I asked for a toilet seat on the porcelain toilet bowl, the man said… “What is a toilet seat? We don’t have any of those!”
But we didn’t come for any star accommodations right? The ambiance is just right, the air was cold, Baguio city cold, nice breeze.
Pranjetto Hills has nice ambiance, nice grounds, a big swimming pool, cheap enough accommodations. Be careful with your kids, the hills are steep enough they might roll down farther off than you would like. You should come during daylight. The mountains have no lights along the way and you can and will fall off the cliffs.
Bring your own food and drink. They have practically none to offer you. Really. We asked for mineral water and the guy just said sorry, the kitchen was closed.
If you are a city snob who likes starry rated accommodations, Pranjetto Hills is not for you. If you are a cowboy like me or a provincial folk, you will like Pranjetto Hills. Visit their website at www.pranjettohills.com
A review of our 2009 health changes and challenges
The past year 2009 was good to me in terms of diet and health. My raw paleo diet that began in 2008 was improved in 2009 with my switch to a high raw fat low carb paleo diet which brought an end to all hypo-glycemia symptoms which all my life I thought was normal. The use of Bieler’s soup enabled me to solidify my gut and allowed me to gain weight. My limiting fruits has been helpful, no longer in the large amounts as in Wai diet, I’ve restricted myself and my family to hydrating fruit and high vitamin fruit.
The challenge with curing my 8 year old boy of tuberculosis / primary complex was a methodical and well executed. We thank the other doctor consultants for their opinions but the ultimate execution lay in my hands. No supplements helped, it was powerful food that saved the day. Henry Bieler was the star, lots of raw muscle beef, raw blood and raw fat, Bieler’s soup with Zucchini, string beans and parsley… plus maybe the beam ray machine helped as well. No supplements or herbals worked in this round. Food is the best and most powerful medicine.
We lost a lot of our herbs and tools when our house was flooded in the big Ondoy flood. My wife responds well to zappers and we lost all 3 zappers in that flood. My wife today has tummy pain which she says will easily be solved with a zapper. We are borrowing a zapper from a friend while we go about buying ourselves a new zapper. Maybe it is a good idea to buy from barefoot herbalist mh a new batch of his herbal dewormer… as an emergency stand by.
We got involved in a debate about curing tooth decay this year. My wai diet and fruitarian trials spilled over to my kids who ate too much fruit. My wife’s own addiction toward sweet fruit though seasonal victimized our 8 year old and our 5 year old which suffered from tooth decay. I had to make stern debates to lessen fruits and increase raw fat intake, even administer raw liver and raw meats to the children.
My wife appreciated the power of EMC and Quantum Minerals Plus drops with the almost instantaneous elimination of her gout pain in her knees and feet. Plus she learned the power of raw fat with raw duck eggs.
2009 was good for us in terms of health. We learned a lot. We are healthier after 2009. Hopefully 2010 is an even better year.
