Clinical Guide to the Use of Vitamin C

The Clinical Experiences of Frederick R. Klenner, M.D.,
abbreviated, sumarized and annotated by
Lendon H. Smith, M.D.

Lendon H. Smith, M.D.
Preface
After Frederick Klenner died in 1984, his friend (and mine), Arthur Rybeck, a nutritionally-oriented dentist practicing in Wheeling, West Virginia, asked if I would be interested in going over the 27 papers Klenner had written from the early 1940’s to the early 1970’s. The whole idea would be to let the world know how thoughtful and careful a researcher he was, and to encourage others to continue his work. If a compendium of Vitamin C (and other nutritional) therapy could be compiled from the published work of Dr. Klenner, maybe we could get more traditional medicine-oriented doctors to use his methods for the relief of sickness and suffering.
Standard doctors tend to believe studies and reports if published, but tend to disbelieve hearsay stories about treatments that patients have read in a “health” newsletter.
I have used Dr. Klenner’s methods on hundreds of patients. He is right. It helps almost every condition and situation, and my failures were due to inadequate amounts.
The timing of such a paper might be most appropriate. Doctors are suffering from low public esteem because they are perceived to be money-grubbing and mistake-laden. This would be a scientifically documented - from the medical literature - therapy for a variety of conditions: cardiovascular, allergies, infections, malabsorption, (see index), and even AIDS, for which prescription drugs may be hazardous. Now the doctors can say, “We have a safe, reasonably natural way of treating your condition that is fairly cheap. We might just keep you out of the hospital.”
That last part might make the insurance carriers perk up their ears. The patients might dash back to the doctors’ offices because the word is getting out that doctors are helping people without side effects. Notice also, the dates on these articles and references - these things were known decades ago.
Take this booklet to your M.D. and suggest that he read about these documented studies. Take Dr. E. Cheraskin’s “Vitamin C Connection” along for further documentation. If your doctor doesn’t know, how can he help you?

Oregano, Tumeric-Curcumin - powerful Healers

What are the Benefits of Oil of Oregano?
The ancient Greeks were one of the first people to recognize oregano oil for its health benefits and medicinal qualities. It is known to be a potent antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiparasitic oil that can reduce pain and inflammation and effectively fight off infections.Oil of Oregano can be found in almost any natural health or nutrition store. Make sure that the oil is derived from Origanum Vulgare, and that the carvacrol concentration is at least 70%.
Worlds Healthiest Foods - "Six hundred and eighty-eight studies, more than 400 of them published within the last four years, confirm Curcumin's remarkable anticarcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Within the last year, interest in Curcumin's potential as a neuroprotective agent have been rising."
Curcumin has been shown to exhibit anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer activities and thus has a potential against various malignant diseases such as diabetes, allergies, arthritis, Alzheimer disease, and other chronic illnesses. These effects are mediated through the regulation of various transcription factors, growth factors, inflammatory cytokines, protein kinases, and other enzymes. Curcumin exhibits activities similar to recently discovered TNF blockers (humira, remicade and enbrel), vascular endothelial cell growth factor blocker (avastin), human epidermal growth factor receptor blockers (erbitux, erlotinib, and geftinib), and HER2 blocker (herceptin). Considering the recent scientific bandwagon that multi-targeted therapy is better than mono-targeted therapy for most diseases, curcumin can be considered an ideal "Spice for Life". More than 5000 papers published within the past two decades have revealed that curcumin has extraordinary potential in promoting health through modulation of numerous molecular targets.
Turmeric is an ancient spice and a traditional remedy. continue

‘A Victory for Health Freedom’
“This is a victory for health freedom, common sense, and US constitutional entitlements. I am very proud of our Council who put public safety ahead of special interests.”
"On Wednesday, the Hawaii County Council approved by a 7-1 vote a resolution introduced by Puna Councilwoman Emily Naeole-Beason urging Hawaii's state legislators and congressional delegation to "amend vaccine laws to include the right of medical, religious, and philosophical exemption from any vaccination program." Chairman J Yoshimoto cast the only "nay" vote, with Ka'u Councilman Guy Enriques absent.continue reading
The resolution states "there is insufficient scientific evidence proving that vaccines are safe or effective, therefore it is not in the best interest of public health to recommend vaccinations without exemption." - Hawaii Tribune Herald

Gridlock on the North Shore
The planned bypass around Lani's Beach alone will take around 7 years for the EIS to be completed, then funds will have to be raised! That's just one tiny area that needs attention.
Of course if the surf washes out the road in that area, things would move along alot faster.
Perhaps Drum Road should be available to NS residents - not just the military.

Greg Long wins The Eddie
The Quiksilver in Memory of Eddie Aikau,
fueled by Monster Energy,
gathers the most skillful and dynamic big-wave surfers from around the globe.
It is the world's longest running and most prestigious big-wave invitational
and is the only one sanctioned by the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP),
the governing body of professional surfing.
Because The Eddie requires waves at least 20 feet in size during the annual one-month holding period, The Eddie had only run seven times in its 24-year history.
The crowd is packed on the beach and also along the highway, where they are four- to six-people deep. Some attendees brought tents and spent the night in the area or slept in truckbeds.

MONSTER WAVES
Huge waves - the ocean is mostly whitewater. The waves are breaking on the outer reefs at heights I've not seen in the 6 years I've lived on Sunset Point. Photos soon

PRINCESS KA'IULANI Heart of a People, Hope of a Nation
I just finished ready this touching and insightful biography of Princess Ka'iulani. Sharon Linnea gives the readers a deeper understanding into the end of the Hawaiian monarchy, and the important role the young yet very courageous Princess Ka'iulani played during this historic time for Hawai'i.Written with great compassion about an admirable young woman, I hope everyone will have an opportunity to read this book.

The Rainbow Bridge, a Chumash Legend
~ The Chumash were created from a seed planted by the Earth Goddess on Santa Cruz Island.
The people prospered until there were too many of them for Santa Cruz Island so the Earth Goddess decided that some of the people would have to move off the island to the mainland where there was plenty of space.
In order to get the people to the mainland, the Earth Goddess created a bridge out of a rainbow. She made a very large rainbow that stretched from the highest peaks of Santa Cruz Island to Mainland Shore.The Earth Goddess told the people to cross the rainbow bridge, but to not look down. Most of the Chumash made it across the bridge safely but some did not. The ones who looked down at the fog shrouded waters of the Pacific became dizzy and fell into the ocean.
The Earth Goddess felt badly that these people had fallen so she turned them into Dolphins.That's why the Chumash always say the Dolphins are their brothers.

Orange Juice and a Jumping Gecko

. . . so I pour a glass of orange juice this morning, go to take a sip, and a gecko falls off the ceiling and INTO my glass! shoulda taken a photo - but it was too early in the am and I didn't want the little guy to drown . . . .
last week - maybe the same gecko jumped onto my head while standing in the same spot. I've now come to the conclusion that geckos use us as jumping posts to the ground. . . . but this time . . . kerplop!
I'm thinking its plan was to jump on my head, but at that moment, I bent my head to drink the orange juice and whoops, it landed in an unintended place.

~ this was probably the 5th time a gecko has landed on my head, so . . .
