The Story of the Pewter Teapot:

This story really tells of how my Grandmother Edie, who has passed into Spirit,  has helped to bring  peace and communication to our family, through a tea pot which she used to own.

Our guides really do exist:  They mostly come from the Heavenly realms, although there  are  some highly developed souls such as my friend Bernhard Petersen, who can communicate psychically with you via ESP, or extra-sensory perception, even though they still have a physical body.

I am going to give you a marvellous example of an incident which occurred just this week.

My dear Grandmother Edie has been communicating with me for some time now.  Since I began using the pen, just as Bernhard assured me, the messages have become quicker to notate, since a pen works more quickly than a pendulum in spelling out messages.

Grandma Edie has been an enormous help over these past few months, as have my friends Bernhard, my daughter Rosy, friends Jack and Father Pat, and others.

Anyway – Grandma’s presence is often felt at my side.  Occasionally, I get an actual physical prod, I guess  from Gran, or my daughter.  It’s very gentle, of course, but a prod nevertheless.  If  I am about to make a bad decision, or eat heavy food when I should in fact be fasting to prevent some sickness, I get gentle prods from these unseen friends of mine.

My mother very kindly gave me a silver tea pot which was my Gran’s.  This was about five years ago.  I really treasure this tea pot, as I loved my Gran, and I appreciate the fact that my mother allocated this gift to me when there are five girls younger than me who might have liked it. I had been thinking lots about the tea pot last week, and felt that I must thank my mother for giving it to me:  the relationship with my mother and I has been shaky since day one, really.  But she is getting old and frail, and so I have been trying to think of all the very nice things she has done for me, so that I can give her some praise and, hopefully, help to bring peace to our family situation.

So – almost every day recently, I hve been writing  down a message from Gran.  My other friends, especially Bernhard, are very frequent with their messages also, but Gran seems to be always there no matter who is talking.

I have just gone back to the Spiritualist Church in Ponsonby where I played the organ for many years.  I have been living, studying and working in Wellington for several years, and had lost touch with the people from this Auckland Church.  Three weeks ago several messages came which told me I should return to this Church:  They need you, Merrilyn.  There is a place for you there.  You can do your healing work there……..

The next Sunday, I did not go because I went to visit friends up at Red Beach, in Orewa.  The following Sunday, as I took my messages down, two  very clear messages came through from Bernhard and Gran.  ‘Don’t forget to go to the Church tonight‘ was the last one.  So I got myself ready to go.

I took the bus over and arrived early. It was cold and dark waiting outside on Ponsonby Road. I began to wonder whether they had given up using this particular Church. There was  usually someone  there  to open up at about 6 o’clock, but tonight there was nobody there.  It was several years since I had been there: anything could have happened.

Through  pendulum  communication with spirit, I was told  to wait, that there most definitely would be a service.

Sure enough, at 6.45pm, they began to arrive.  They were so happy that I had returned. They certainly did need me, as they hadn’t had an organist for four years.  It was so wonderful to open up that fabulous old pipe organ and fill the Church with its georgous sound.

I was given a message from Gran from the medium. It is always nice to be given a comforting message.  I was told that there was a mother figure there, which had to be Gran,   but the message  did not tell me anything that I didn’t know already:  I felt that the medium had no idea of my understanding  and receptiveness to  the fact that Gran is there for me EVERY DAY, not just at Church.

The following week, which was just last Sunday, I was given another  message by another medium.  Again, I was told things that I knew already – that I must settle down now, and cease my roamings.  Well, that has been taken care of, because I have completed my degree in Wellington, and have now returned to Auckland where my children are all residing.

But at the end of this message came the line which really struck  home:

‘This lady that is with you – a mother figure – wants you to know that SHE REALLY IS THERE……….Something about a pewter tea pot.  She used to own a pewter pot……. Very special……….It is a good one.’

This was definitely my Gran talking here.  I have her magic tea pot, which I call silver, because it is silver plated.  I didn’t know what the base material was: it might have been pewter, but it could be copper, or some other metal, however,  I thought his message was good enough proof that HE was really receiving a message from Gran,  and that even though he did not understand my own receptivity to Gran, he really did have some expertise in the field of mediumship:   So I thanked him courteously, and told him that he had been ‘spot on’ about the tea pot.

So the following day, Monday, having been prompted by the medium reminding me about the tea pot, I thought I’d better send  that text to my sister.  I asked  her to tell my mother how much the silver tea pot meant to me, and to thank her very very much for giving it to me.

How’s this:  I was just about blown over when my sister Alison, a real boxer, replied by text the very  next day, saying:

  • Heya – Just spoke to Ma.  Said that the pot is good one cos pewter underneath and is so pleased you enjoy having it……God Bless You Alison.

The immedieate outcome of all this is that I am almost on my way ‘down the line’ to see my family. I am leaving in the morning.  Goodness knows what else Grandma has in mind.

Low Sperm Count Natural Remedies

A Low Sperm Count

This is something which troubles many men these days. Stressful lifestyles, nutritional deficiencies, and chemical poisoning via toxins in our food, and chemicals in the  environment, are to blame.

Electromagnetic radiation in the form of electromagnetic energy which is emitted from high tension wires, and electricity transformers, and radio waves which now literally bombard into our city environments via satellites to run all sorts of technology, including  massive amounts of cell phones,  are responsible for many health problems which people suffer these days.  Diseases which can be caused by electromagnetic energy and radio waves in the atmosphere are:  cancer, nerve disfunction diseases such as multiple sclerosis, arthritis and infertility/low sperm count.

Much can be done to improve fertility and low sperm counts.  However, if the cause is due to radiation and chemical poisoning which has damaged the genes before birth, then not a lot can be done.  An example of this would be if either of your parents had been exposed to 245T, or Agent Orange, in Viet Nam:  This has caused birth defects and infertility in many young people born in Viet Nam since the war, and in the children of soldiers who fought in the war.  A low sperm count could be the result  if you had been exposed to many X rays, or your mother had been exposed to excessive X ray radiation before you were born.

However, if you were born healthy and your infertility problem, or low sperm count,  has resulted from a stressful lifestyle, then you have a good chance of being able to restore your health and improving your sperm count.

Avoid alcohol and other drugs: It is important to stop using alcohol or any kind of drugs, unless they are prescribed, of course – even then, many prescription drugs can damage the health and lower your sperm count.

Alcohol has an acidic effect on the body, and this is to be avoided if you are trying to bring up your sperm count.

Marijuana is one of the worst kind of drugs for interfering with both brain  and sexual function. Alcohol also has a bad effect on the reproductive organs. Both these drugs interfere with digestion and rob you of  the essential vitamins and minerals which are necessary for the proper functioning of the body.  Marijuana and alcohol and other drugs  DO affect your sperm count and your general health by depleting the body’s resources, and by weakening the nervous system.  It is essential that you  avoid these drugs if you wish to improve your sperm count.

Stop Smoking and Reduce Coffee. These are two very important requirements to improve your health and restore the sperm count to normal.

A Detox Diet is important at the beginning of your treatment:  in order to get  your body functioning normally again, you need to eliminate the poisons being held in the body.  Getting rid of toxins in the blood and in the liver will help you to improve your general health and your sperm count.

Using Castor Oil To  Detoxify can be helpful in improving the health of the whole body.  Using castor oil once or twice a week, combined with a diet which includes many fresh fruits and vegetables, and adequate protein, could improve your sperm count.

Fasting on fruit and vegetable juices is one way which you can detoxify the body.

An Alkaline Diet:  Keep the diet on the alkaline side to avoid a low sperm count.  Alkaline foods include:

  • Most fruits:  Apples are especially alkaline.  Grapes are also good. Kiwifruit, pears, peaches, apricots, prunes, dates, are all good alkaline foods.
  • Most vegetables – especially the green leafy vegetables such as silver beet and spinach. Some of the other alkaline vegetables are:   globe artichokes,  broccoli, green beans, kale, cabbage, carrots, olives, parsnips, swede, garlic, onions, leeks, beetroot.
  • Sesame seeds and sunflower seeds are excellent alkaline foods for bringing up your sperm count.  These are very high in calcium, especially sesame seeds, and this makes them a high quality food for revitalizing the sexual organs.  The calcium and essential oils in sesame seeds and sunflower seeds make them good nerve food, which you need more of to counteract that stress you feel, and to help you sleep well.  Munch a handful of sesame seeds and sunflower seeds just before you go to bed.
  • Almonds, too, are a great restorative food.  You can eat six to nine a day to help improve your sperm count and your general health.
  • Avoid Acid Foods:  These are sugar,  wheat and wheat products, including bread. Bread is one of the worst offenders of the acid-making foods we eat in western diets.  Try to avoid eating bread completely, and switch to eating rice instead. Sugar is a very damaging food as well, and is best avoided whilst you restore your health.
  • Brown rice is more alkaline than white rice and has more nutrients than white rice, including vitamin B. This is an excellent food to replace pasta, bread and pastries in your meals. Brown rice  is even  less acid forming than potatoes.
  • Meat is an acid-producing food. Cut down on your meat intake and try to eat more vegetarian proteins instead, such as sunflower seeds, almonds, avocado, and dahl made with lentils and split peas etc and organic free range eggs.
  • Best to avoid dairy products for a time, until you have recovered.  Dairy products, with the exception of butter, have a mucous-forming effect on the digestion, and this can interfere with the absorption of nutrients in the intestines.
  • Eggs are good, especially egg yolk without the white.  This is a restorative, nutritive food which is given to people with serious diseases such as cancer. Two raw egg yolks can be taken a day if you are on are vegetarian diet.  Of course, ensure that they are free range and organic if that is possible.  If you are on medication for high cholesterol, or some other condition, then check with your doctor or health professional before you take raw egg yolk.
  • Try to eat at least two thirds of your food from the vegetable and fruit range.

Herbs May Be Helpful: Some herbs which are recommended for low sperm count are:

Damiana, ginseng, ginkgo,  saw palmento, celery seeds, liquorice and ginger.

Note:  Ginseng should be avoided if there is any sign of high blood pressure. Ginkgo is not recommended for people who have low blood sugar, as this herb lowers your blood sugar.   Ask advice from your doctor before you try any of these herbs  if you are on any medication at all.

Tight Clothing , Synthetic Underwear, and Circulation: Encourage good circulation by avoiding all  synthetic fibres, or clothing that is too tight.  Go for the more loose style of  cotton underwear. Clothing which is too tight interferes with circulation, and you need good circulation to feed your whole body for it to funciton properly.  Synthetic fibres are bad because they, too,  interfere with  circulation and the flow of energy about the body.

Get Regular Exercise:  This is important to get the circulation going well so that your body organs can be fed the vital nutrients necessary for good health. If you don’t take regular exercise, then this could cause a low sperm count.

Supplements to help with low sperm count:

  • Iodine:  This is very important for the proper function of the body.  Iodine is needed by the thyroid gland – a deficiency could be the very reason your sperm count is low.  To rectify an iodine deficiency, simply dab on some liquid iodine to the scalp or the soles of the feet.  This needs to be done once or twice a week.  Two or three dabs with the finger is enough.  You will keep absorbing the iodine through the pores of  your  skin, even after it has dried.
  • Take a supplement of zinc and magnesium.  A shortage of zinc can result in reproductive problems.  In New Zealand and many other parts of the world, there is a deficiency of zinc in the soil, which means that vegetables grown on these soils will be deficient in zinc.
  • Take a vitamin B complex daily – just the stated dose.
  • Take Vitamin E daily – again, just the stated dose.

Acupressure Points To Massage:  You can do so much towards improving the function of the body by doing shiatsu massage.  By massaging the appropriate  acupuncture points each night, you can restore deficient organs to normal health.

Low sperm count can be treated by using massaging the following points each night before you go to sleep.  The exercise only takes about two minutes all up – it is not an extensive massage, and you can do it sitting up in bed.  All that is needed is for the associated points to be reminded briefly that they need to ‘up’ their performance, and this is how you do it:

  • The sexual organs, whether male or female, are found on the inside of the foot, in the groove  just behind and below the knobbly  ankle bone.  Press into this area with the thumb – just three or four presses is enough.
  • Then move to the outside of the calf muscle, about halfway up the leg:  press three good presses into this point.
  • Move to the knee area:  Working first on the fight knee-cap:   Press in  from the outside of the knee-cap,  working towards the base of the knee-cap.  Work inwards underneath the knee-cap, inching forward slowly so that you get all the points in this area. Pressure needs to be firm, but not so hard that you hurt the bone.
  • Then press behind the knee, at the centre of the crease at the back of the knee.
  • Next, move up to the centre of the front of the thigh.  Press three good deep movements into the very centre of the front of the thigh.
  • Next, repeat all these previous pressure movements on the other leg.
  • Then, after doing the point at the centre of the thigh, come up to the pelvic bone.  Press all along the upper bone, just underneath the outer edge.
  • Come up to the stomach.  Press very gently just three times on the upperside of the navel, about one finger length away from the navel.
  • Move up to the chest area. Press  just below the lower rib cage, in the soft spot at the centre of the chest. Do three light presses here.
  • Move up to the area at centre of the body, on the middle of the rib cage, centred directly between the nipples.  Press this three times, more firmly than the last pressure point.
  • Come up to the neck area – press the point on the lower side of the adam’s apple, on the bone which lies directly below the adam’s apple.
  • Move upwards to the very top of the throat, in the crease where the chin begins, just above the adam’s apple.  Press very lightly here, three times.
  • Move up to the centre of the chin.  Press firmly three times with your thumb or index finger.
  • Move to the outside of the eye in the groove which lies there.  Press this gently three times, on both sides.
  • Move to the front of the ears and press the three fingers in gently.  Do both sides.
  • Do the centre crease inside the elbow on both arms. Move down towards  the hands, pressing the inside of the lower arm gently as you do so.
  • Then press the  ‘Hoku’ point which lies between the thumb and second finger.  It lies in the web where these two fingers are joined with flesh.
  • Put your hands over your ears now, so that much of your head is covered.  Close your eyes and hold for half a minute.
  • Go to the solar plexus area and gently rub the tummy three times in a clockwise movement.

This routine is really not time consuming, because you are only at each acupuncture site for about 5 or 10 seconds.  Do every night for at least three weeks.  Take a break for a week, and begin the three-wek treatment again until you no longer need it.

Impotence Cured: Dr Edward Wagner, with Sylvia Goldfarb, have reported in their book ‘How To Stay Out Of The Doctor’s Office” a case of a man who was cured of impotence by following  recommendations similar to those given above:

This patient’s  circulation was improved by taking yohimbe, (don’t know this one),  ginseng, saw palmetto berries, damiana, vitamin E and zinc. He also took a regular vitamin and mineral combination once a day.  He avoided alcohol and coffee and sugar,  stopped smoking, and took up exercising at the gym.  The end result was that his wife gave birth to twins.

Risperdal Children

Effects of  Risperdal on Children

A friend has just sent me the gist on an article which The New York Times published  recently: This information has been disseminated by the Alliance For Human Research Protection.

The New York Times article alerts us as to the dangers of prescribing medications to children. The side effects of many medications are little known or just not considered by the many doctors who prescribe children risperdal and other such drugs.

However, one should not have to wait for ‘scientific proof’ to work out that toxic chemicals in medications will have many negative consequences in the long run, including poor immune function and a susceptibility to disease. Find an alternative to toxic medications for the sake of your children’s health.

The recent article by Duff Wilson which appeared on the front page of the New York Times has brought a stern reality home: Toxic drugs are still being prescribed to children without any regard to the effects on the health of these children. Risperdal children are obviously at risk both psychologically and physically, as this article illustrates.

Unnecessary Toxic Medications: Many children in America are being treated unnecessarily with psychotic drugs and sleeping pills which they most surely do not need and should not be taking.  Television programmes which have been aired over the past year have given us an insight into how many parents rely on medications such as sleeping pills and other psychotic drugs so that their children will become passive and sleep much of the time.

Basically, many toxic medications are being given out to children just because the parents claim that their children are ‘unmanageable’ or have some attention deficit disorder.

Bad parenting and toxic chemicals in food such as preservatives and colourings, etc, can cause sleep deprivation and symptoms of  ‘attention deficit disorder’ and other psychosis. That is not to say that the parents of Kyle Warren were ‘bad’ parents at all – they were doing as their doctor instructed  – just that many people who give their children medications are doing so because it is an easy option because it makes a child docile, and because their doctor permits it.

Duff Wilson’s article discusses the case of an eighteen month old child, Kyle Warren,  who was prescribed  risperdal.  By the age of three, his mental condition had deteriorated, obviously because of the risperdal  medication he was taking.  At this point he was prescribed MORE toxic medications, which included sleeping pills, Prozac and a medication to treat attention deficit disorder.

How crazy is that?   This poor wee boy suffered because of  risperdal, a  drug which should never have been prescribed for him at all. And then he was prescribed MORE toxic drugs.  Prescribing prozac for children, or risperdal, or any other drug, simply should never be allowed.

Attention deficit disorder is something we may all get if we were to take risperdal every day for a year and a half, especially if we were given this from the age of only 18 months.

Luckily, this poor wee boy was rescued by doctors whose intervention saved his life.  But there are many children who are not so lucky:  Many children today are taking medications which are actually undermining their intelligence, their solcial skills, and wheir physical being.  These drugs are gradually killing children:  their lives are being shortened and devalued.

NO TOXIC MEDICATION should ever be prescribed to children.  There are alternative therapies  which can help children who are unruly or who have behavioural problems.

Some Sensible Alternatives To Toxic Medications:

Homeopathy for children is one alternative to replace those harmful drugs. Homeopathic remedies are very effective and are completely non toxic.  Of course, you need to see a professional homeopath if your child is seriously disturbed or is ill.  But there is a homeopathic remedy for EVERY ailment you can think of.  It is just a matter of finding the appropriate remedy, or remedies, which requires someone with experience to determine.

Correct Vitamin and Mineral Deficiency:  Vitamin and mineral deficiency can cause hormonal imbalance:  Hormonal imbalance  can cause sleeping and behavioural problems in children.

Avoid Chemicals in Food: Processed food must be avoided, as processed food is generally loaded with preservatives and colourings and flavourings which are very harmful to your child.  Chemicals such as preservatives, colourings and flavourings interfere with the normal  physical and mental development of your child.

If you ensure that your child NEVER has any food which has any chemicals in it of any kind, then you are going a long way to improving the health, both physically and mentally, of your child.

Organic Insecticides

Organic insecticides Which Really Work

It is important to use non-poisonous insecticides on your pet. Poisonous chemicals which are in many flea killers, ant killers and cockroach products, are partly to blame for the many cancers, arthritis, and nerve and muscular diseases which our pets, and ourselves, are often afflicted with.

Toxic chemicals put an overload on the body’s organs, especially the liver.  Toxic chemicals also affect the heart, kidneys and bladder.  Toxic chemicals can  cause heart palpitations, fluttering of the heart, weakness of the heart, and heart attack.  Toxic chemicals can cause cancer. These affflictions can affect your own state of health, as well as that of your pet.

If the effects of the many toxic chemicals we use in our environment were understood, in food production, and to control weeds and pests, then there would not be a need to take the many drugs such as warfarin and others which are widely distributed to prevent heart attacks and stroke.  We would not have so much cancer about either, if the use of poisonous chemicals in our environment were eliminated.

Cancer Prevention: Using organic insecticides will go a long way to preventing liver damage, cancer, and other degenerative disease.

Protect Your Pets by using  natural products to eradicate or control fleas and other pests in the home. By using organic insecticides on your pets and in your household, you are not only lowering the risk of cancer in  your family and your pets,  but will be contributing to a more healthy environment.  It is important not to support the manufacturers of poisonous products:  by NOT buying their products, we are making a contribution to a healthier poison-free environment.

Weleda Products To Treat Fleas and Other Pests.

One way in which you can help protect  the health of you, your family and your pets is by making organic insecticides at home. I have a post which gives some recipes for organic insecticides.

However, there are a few commercial products which are totally safe to use.  Weleda products are one of the safe brands to buy.  Their herbal and homeopathic combinations are well tried, safe, and effective remedies.  I can really recommend their flea treatment.  Go check out the range of Weleda products – it is ages since I used their flea treatment, but here is how it worked for me:

The Weleda homeopathic flea treatment which I used  cost less than $10 at the time.  Of the liquid, I used only three drops in a pint of water.  This was put into a spray bottle.  I think I shook the bottle a few times with the water and the homeopathic liquid in it, then the potion was ready to use.

We had moved into an old villa which was infested with fleas.  It had been shut up for some time in the summer, and the fleas had had a ball.  If you walked down the hallway and looked down at your legs, you could pick off dozens of fleas.

I sprayed the homeopathic flea lotion around the house in the evening, making sure the hallway, which was worse affected, was done in every corner.

Unbelievable result. By morning, there was not a flea to be found. I have no idea where they went.  They had simply disappeared.  No dead fleas to be found.  We never, in the year that we spent at that house, had a flea problem there again.

Home-Made Lavender Insecticide:

By chance, once, when I was experimenting with herbal essences, and  potions which would work for head lice, I came across a home made remedy which had just as potent an effect as the Weleda homeopathic for fleas.

This was in the summer, just after I had used the Weleda flea treatment, so I had just increased my  knowledge on the making, and the use, of homeopathic remedies.

In the early summer, when the lavender was fresh and clean after the spring rain, I picked a heap of lavender, enough to fill a two pint jar with lavender.  I put hot water over it, added a couple of tablespoons of honey, the juice of a lemon, then screwed the lid on just lightly, so that the fermentation gases could escape, but the insects not get in.

I left the jar for three weeks, sitting on the window sill in the sun.  I shook the jar a little every day, tightening the lid first so that the liquid would not spill, then loosened it again when the jar lay rested on the window sill.

After three weeks, I drained off the liquid, which I poured over another fresh lot of lavender, with a little added honey.   The same procedure was followed.  Three weeks in the sun, shaking lightly every day.  After three weeks, again, the same routine was applied – more fresh lavender, and the last liquid poured over the new lavender.

After the third infusion, I drained the liquid off.  This was by now the colour of purple lavender, and had a very strong, beautiful aroma.

I found, when using this liquid, that it was impossibly strong if it was used neat.  So I had the bright idea, coming from the homeopathic principle, that just a few drops of this may work.

I used three drops only in half a pint of water which was in a spray bottle.  I shook up the bottle and sprayed this over hair lice.  They disappeared, just as the fleas had done with the Weleda treatment.  I used it on our dog, which eradicated her fleas just as effectively.

Homeopathic Rat Treatment:  I have not personally used this potion, but I have seen it on the list of products which Weleda make. It is a few years since I saw this advertised, but my guess is that they still make it.

Cancer In Dogs

Why Dogs Get Cancer was  the title of a post which I put up yesterday. Todays post, entitled  Cancer in Dogs is  a follow up to that post.

The number of cases of  cancer in dogs is increasing.   This is no surprise, since  the incidence  of  cancer in cats is  also increasing, as is cancer in humans.

Just why cases of cancer is becoming more common, not just in people, but  in our household pets, is quite easy to work out.

The main cause of cancer in people and animals is environmental. The biggest contributors to our sick environment is the amount of herbicides and pesticides which are used in producing food, and which are sprayed around our city parks and streets to kill weeds. In the household, ant and cockroach killers, and fly spray are the most commonly used poisons which are very detrimental to our health, and to the health of our pets who walk around the areas where these poisons are laid.

Some things in our environment can be controlled, but not all, unfortunately.  We can stop using fly spray and toxic chemicals to eradicate fleas, cockroaches and ants, but we  cannot stop the effects of radiation, which also causes cancer and other degerative disease, from nuclear activity and the proliferation of cell phone towers in our environment.  We cannot stop agricultural chemicals being put onto farmland and injected into the animals which provide us with meat, milk, cheese, butter and eggs. We cannot stop the council spraying our parks without a concerted effort to get this stopped……and this should be our next goal after fixing our own immediate environments.

However, meanwhile, we can do much to prevent cancer developing by taking care to buy organic and free range  food products for both ourselves and our pets. We can make an impact environmentally  on our own little patch of ground by  eliminating the  use of  ALL harmful chemicals in our houses and in our gardens.

FLEA TREATMENTS: Flea collars, flea tablets, and flea powders are very bad to use on your pet, unless it is stated that the product contains no harmful chemicals and is completely organic. Making your own flea remedies is an excellent thing to do for your pets, and for your family too:  when you use toxic chemicals on your pets, or use insecticide anywhere in the house to kill cockroaches or ants,  the whole family gets a dose of it, and the poison is transferred about the house, onto cushions, bedding, carpet – wherever the dog or cat may sit.  This puts you and your family at risk as well as your pet.

Harmful chemicals such as insectides which are used on dogs and other animals, or fly killers, get absorbed into our blood stream through the pores of our skin.  The same thing happens to our pets:  the poison which we put on their skin to kill fleas is actually being absorbed through the pores of the dog or cat’s skin, or our own skin.   Poisons such as these find their way, via the blood, into the liver where they get stored.  These stored poisons, in time, cause cancer and other degenerative disease unless they can be purged out of the body of a person or an animal.

Calcium Ascorbate to Prevent Cancer: One way to help purge toxic chemicals from the body is with the use of calcium ascorbate, a non-acidic form of vitamin C.   This has been used for many years in alternative cancer treatments. Recently, in New Zealand, research scientists proved for a fact that vitamin C does inhibit cancer, and that it can help to reduce the size of a cancer.  So vitamin C as a preventative, and also a cure, when used in conjunction with other special dietary and detoxification measures, is a pretty well established treatment for cancer and other degenerative disease.

Detoxification of Poisons: A dose of calcium ascorbate vitamin C, or ester C,  can be given to your dog via its food to counteract the effects of toxins which have built up in the liver. A dose could be somewhere between 100mg and 500mg daily, depending on the size of the dog, and whether the calcium ascorbate is given for prevention or for a cure. If your dog already has cancer, then larger amounts of Vitamin C should be used.

Herbicides in Public Places: It is important to watch council spraying programmes, or those of your neighbours,  if you live in the country.  A dog or cat who walks through freshly sprayed grass is endangering its health.  Animals, including cows, have direct contact with agricultural chemicals if  they tread on the grass with their unprotected feet.   You just cannot say how much poison a cat or a dog will come across as it roams about a park, or a farm, or, as cats do, around the neighbouring properties in a town.

DIET OF YOUR PETS: One very harmful thing about many commercial dog foods and cat foods is that preservatives and flavour enhancers are added.  These are very bad for animals when they have a steady diet of these foods which have chemical additives.

To help prevent cancer and other degenerative disease developing, you must make sure to give your pets unadulterated, fresh food.  It is better to prepare the food yourself rather than buy any packaged foods for dogs.  Dry biscuits are very bad for both cats and dogs, as these lead to kidney and bladder disease, and are hard on the digestive system.

Animals’ digestive systems are not made to take ongoing diets of dry material, no matter how organic and nutritious  the product is.  If you use a quality dry biscuit, then the diet should also include some fresh quality meat each day, and a little of what you yourselves eat – some mashed vegetables and rice mixed in with the meat is a good way to get nutrients into your dog.
