B12 Deficiency and Difficulty Healing Bronchitis Pneumonia Cure Attempt

by

The saga of W’s illness continues. She is making little progress in her health. She still needs bed rest. Last Monday’s Beam Ray session with Romy Macapagal concluded with no parasites, bacteria or viruses in her. So whatever ails her must be malnutrition related. Yesterday Wednesday she finally got an appointment with her Anthroposophic doctor Divina Hey-Gonzales. She had transferred clinics and was not available for the past week or so.

Dr. Divina immediately commented that W looked yellowish – anemic. Found from questioning that she still bled spots of blood already 2 weeks from her first menstruation day. She then heard the history of W’s illness as I related in my previous blogs. What seems to relieve her. She noticed that blood pressure was very low… 80 over 50. That her right lung was all terribly inflamed bronchial tubes and alveoli. That she had a “normal” cooked meat fruit + organic rice every other day diet. That she had lost 5 pounds in this illness from 100 to 95 pounds at 5’2″.

Diagnosis? Bronchitis progressing to pneumonia caused by B12 deficiency. I had known W since she was 18 and she had bouts of problems with anemia since that age. W turns 38 next month.

Dr. Divina prescribed a cocktail of anthroposophic medicines to treat W’s condition. Strange sounding Weleda brand names such as Pneumodoron 1 and 2, Mercurious Vivus, Pertudoron 2, Noutronit / Pulmo / Stibuin / Prunus, Echinacea, Anaemodoron, Digestodoron. You could probably look this all up in the Weleda website. Plus W was immediately given a B12 shot called a MethylCobalamin Injection.

Dr. Divina is currently in a Pesco-vegetarian kick and she recommends vegetables, but we need to wait for the organic market on Saturday to get true organic produce. W does not like any non-organic vegetables and thinks pesticide laden veggies may make her health worse. We do get good grass fed beef and wild ocean fish, but that does not meet her B12 deficiency. And now I know why.

I Googled a little and found the real reason for her B12 deficiency was W’s strict avoidance of all B12 rich foods! Insane huh? She’s been avoiding these B12 rich foods all her life and thus the result with B12 deficiency. She avoids clams, oysters and liver — but just eat a measly few ounces of each item overshoots the RDA for B12 hundreds of percent each time!

So this Thursday morning I immediately set out for Farmers Market in Cubao to buy some nutritious B12 foods. I got fresh young beef liver… just lucky I guess… tasted it at the stall, the senior lady butcher said raw liver was good for anemic people… I did not solicit that comment. Then I got some live halaan clams from the waters of Cebu. Then I got some live oysters from Bulacan. I also got some fresh raw bone marrow in a “barbell” bone… yummy, never refrigerated and they had a mechanical saw the cleanly cut it up. Also got some sea weed for vegetable nutrition. Though later we are scheduled for coconut milk with banana heart and okra cooked together for her vegetables.

At home I immediately opened the biggest live clam and coaxed her to eat it, which she did. Score one goal! Nutritiondata.com says Vitamin B12 13.8 mcg or 231% of RDA for just 1 ounce. I had the maid cut the raw beef liver in cubes and put some calamansi and ground pepper just like I do with the children. Long day still. I have to go to work. Will blog more later. In the meantime, enjoy the pictures.

Made a new batch of Cayenne Tincture this New Moon of January 2009

by

Today is new moon day.  January 27, 2009 just after Chinese New Year.  Nice day for me to have picked to make a new batch of cayenne tincture.  I still have my old batch of dried cayenne pepper and a new batch of fresh ripe cayenne… the Thai variety, very cheap at 80 pesos per kilo.  I also bought some cheap vodka, Cossack Vodka at 60 pesos per 0.7 liter bottle at 80 proof x 3 bottles.  I also got 2 RC Cola 1 liter bottles, had to buy the cola and gave it to the maids to drink.  They appreciate junk food.  I appreciated the new bottles.

The method I did was to:

1) fill 1/3 blender container full of dried cayenne pepper.  Put in enough vodka to just a little above the line of the dried cayenne pepper.  Close the blender jar. And pulse.  Pulse. Pulse.  Then pour the blendered dried cayenne and vodka into a pitcher.

2) fill 1/3 blender container full of fresh ripe cayenne pepper.  Put in enough vodka to just a little above the line of the fresh ripe  cayenne pepper.  Close the blender jar. And pulse.  Pulse. Pulse.

3) Pour the blendered dried cayenne pepper with vodka into the blender again mixing it with the blendered fresh ripe cayenne pepper.  Then fill up with more vodka.  Pulse a few more times.

4) With a funnel, pour mixture into empty bottles.  I used 4 bottles this time.  Filling each with approximately 1/2 liter of the cayenne tincture pre-mix.

5) Store the 4 bottles in the wine cabinet and we will wait for at least 1 month before bottling them in little bottles with droppers.

Why time my cayenne tincture making during the new moon?  Experience by herbal tincture makers say your cayenne tincture will be more powerful if you make it during the new moon.  So I did.

I felt better, more confident once the job of blending the cayenne and the vodka.  With new cayenne tinctures waiting to just ripen.  It feels good that we are again ready and prepared for any problem in the future,  whether it be breathing difficulties, heart attacks, strokes or severe colds.

My previous and very first batch did very good things when I gave it away as a christmas present to many friends and relatives.  The best reward was when I gave a whole bottle to my 98 year old grandfather who was dying of pneumonia but me and my cousin helped save him and the cayenne tincture was part of that success.

My pneumonia CURED grandfather celebrates his 99th birthday

by

Last March 2008 I documented how we saved our 98 year old grandfather from a death sentence given by his local hospital.  See http://www.eczemacure.info/article/articleview/277/1/9/ for that documentation.  As a result of that success and also previously with our 88 year old grandmother, I have written a pneumonia cure manual at http://www.curemanual.com/diseases-and-tweaks/pneumonia

So for those of you who are being diagnosed with pneumonia, pay attention, read and understand what I have posted in the Pneumonia Cure Manual, the life you save may be that of your loved one.  Whatever theories about bad pneumonia bacteria, infection, antibiotics and expectorants are all hogwash because that paradigm is death inducing and death sentencing.  If we had left our 88 year old grandma and our 98 year old grandpa to those murderous quacks, they would have been dead by now.

Yes I am telling you THEY are absolutely WRONG, and we are CORRECT.  Who are WE?  Me, my teachers around the world, the loved ones we CURE, we who deliver THE CURE and share the PNEUMONIA CURE for all to benefit.  We have the CORRECT SCIENCE, we have the science that works, it’s simple, safe, and effective.

My grandfather is reportedly still fat and strong.  He only needs his cane to walk around.  I talked to him and he could hear me perfectly and he could speak perfectly.  My grandfather likes to spend his time thinking so his brain keeps getting the exercise he needs.

My cousin and I called our grandfather this morning to greet him.  They just had their phone reconnected.  We had the same telephone company so there was no long distance charge.  I told my cousin he is now the favorite grandchild because it was he who administered the pneumonia cure, I was just coaching in the background.  My aunt flied off to the province to greet grandpa.

I should plan for a trip to celebrate my grandpa’s 100th birthday next year, probably bring my kids along too.
