Welcome Citizen Member
We are giving
you some information that Naturopathic Medical Doctors and Herbalists around
the world use in the treatment of their clients.
You will see that some of them
desire to call themselves Medical Doctors by saying that they are Naturopathic
Medical Doctors with a medical practice, just like the Osteopathic Doctors call
themselves Osteopathic Medical Doctors.
This means that they are practicing
Medicine in a Naturopathic manner or practicing Medicine in an Osteopathic
Manner or “using natural procedures” with the Allopathic Medical Secular
Scientific system rather than using their own, which they “do not” know!
This forces everyone who doesn’t
know of their science to use the Secular System, which is contrary to their use
of Natural Processes and cause the many uncontrolled responses and confusion
that are experienced, not only in Allopathic Medical processes but within the
Alternative Natural Health Care System!
There is a large general group of
Naturopathic Physicians who do not claim to be Natural Doctors practicing
Naturopathic Medicine or that they have a medical practice and though they call
their herbals medicines instead of what they really are (foods).
The reason for this mistake is that they have not had an
understanding of their own complete science and have borrowed many practices
and words from Secular Science and the Allopathic System of application.
Many of your natural practitioners,
because they do not understand their own profession or its science, have done
this and because of it, they have suffered a great deal of persecution from
Allopathic Practitioners who do not accept or believe that natural procedures
and substances (food) help correct a diseased condition as efficiently as their
system.
But, time has proven differently
and many Allopathic Physicians have now begun to use some of these Alternative
Natural methods and products, but only in the hopes of taking them away from
the Natural Practitioner.
The majority of the Natural
Practitioners, in general, relate to their work as practicing Natural Medicine,
which by them is looked at as different from Allopathic Medicine, which has
different methods of administration and therapies.
Most people do not realize that
there are actually “two” different systems for the delivery of health care
procedures and products and therefore have misunderstood what should really be
done, within each system used to deliver their “methods and products.”
Most of Naturopathic and other
“Natural Methodologies” are rejected by the Allopathic system and the ignorant
public as quackery, until recent years.
In the last five years the
Allopathic Practitioner has had to look for alternatives to their toxic drugs
and surgical methods because the public is looking for alternatives, therefore
many of their practitioners who have more intelligence, integrity and ethics
like those few, who have fought for the last two-hundred years, with their
colleagues, have started to use Alternative “Natural methods” by calling it
INTEGRATIVE OR BLENDED MEDICINE.
The Secular Allopathic Practitioner
proclaims to do their own research as to the effectiveness of these natural
methods and to know if it does or does not work!
There also is a movement by many
Naturopathic Physicians to work in cooperation with Allopathic Physicians with
each contributing their expertise to those who come in to their office.
Little do they realize the danger they have placed their profession,
because the Secular Allopath is attempting to pirate these methods and
establish them as their own so eventually they can pass laws to exclude any
Natural Practitioner from using them, like they did to the Osteopath!
The material below is common
knowledge among the Naturalist and has been for two hundred years or more, with
some of it being several thousand years old.
The problem of ignorance still
exists and is passed on to the ignorant and unsuspecting person who believe
they have the truth, because they get better results, even though they
experience the same type of failures as with drug therapy and surgery, they are
fewer, thus keeping them in their belief that they have the whole truth!
The
information, given below, has been used to help feed the bodies of the male who
is suffering from malnutrition in such a manner that hopefully this plant
provides what is needed by their body!
What the
naturalist and the Allopathic Medical Doctor does not generally recognize is
that this herb is a food, even if they want to call it a medicine, it will only
help those who are compatible with it and to that degree it is compatible it
will help a male’s system to regain chemical balance so it can function
properly.
If it is not
compatible or only to a degree, the help obtained will be from great damage to
those who are totally not compatible to the varying degree to which they are
compatible.
This is the
way all substances function in our bodies because each person’s system will
take each substance and use it (change it into what it needs) in the best way
for its own needs and if it cannot change it into a compatible substance that
substance becomes a toxin the body needs to get rid of.
When the body
cannot get rid of it through its elimination system, it will find a dumping or
storage area to put it and isolate it (encapsulating it) so it cannot poison
any cells.
If a person’s
body is too toxic, this process breaks down and severe disease, inflammations
and many other conditions develop as toxic chemicals begin to crystallize in
the tissues of joints and other areas where fluids are needed, causing
inflammation and pain!
This is what
happens within the tissues of the prostate, when certain chemicals are not
present to prevent this from happening and when sufficient exercise is not
engaged in to keep the fluids of the body moving that carry away these toxic
chemicals.
Then,
micro-organisms that are naturally within the tissues of all living things have
sufficient food (destroyed and dying cell tissue, they like vultures will
attempt to clean up this debris. This
is what researcher see when looking at the body and mistakenly declare them to
be the cause of disease.
Although
these organisms excrete toxic waste the bodies immune system usually will
detoxify or use those chemicals for its best good, but when the body is over
toxic the immune system breaks down and real cell breakdown begins and diseases
of all types will manifest, including AIDS (an Acquired Immune Deficiency
Syndrome).
Our universe
does not agree with the methods of education by either system as they make
their announcements as if they are the ultimate cure for all disease or for the
one they are targeting. Yes, they may
help someone, but these product (foods) do not help everyone and will even hurt
those who are not compatible to it chemical make up!
We again
declare that it is at your own risk that you choose to use this or any other
product advertised as a cure to a condition!
What the public does not know and the professional do not say, is that
these substances will help certain people with different problems as well as
the chemical make up of the product supplies what that person needs.
Therefore, it
is seen over time and not from science that there are many different diseased
problems that one product is capable of helping in the its correction with a
person’s body!
This becomes
confusing to not only the public but also the declared professional who is not
sufficiently educated in this system or the full science and information needed
to function properly is not available, so many errors are made and people are
hurt or spend large sums of money and time trying to find what will work for
them!
There are similar
explanations given by many other people and researchers, because they have
obtained many parts of the science, but none have the complete science and
therefore they cannot explain everything in simple easy to understand and use
scientific terms like we can in our universe!
This is why you have so
much confusion!
Remember that the
information given below is not going to help everyone although they make it
sound like it, so you will buy it to blindly try something that has the
capability of hurting you, if you do not know that it is compatible to your
specific chemistry and body requirements!
We want to help you solve this problem and free you from your fear,
anxiety, and ignorance so you can have the tools to govern your own life and
have a long, happy, healthy, disease and pain free life!

“Saw Palmetto Extract: Nature’s Answer to Prostate Enlargement
The prostate is a single, doughnut-shaped gland about
the size of a walnut that lies below the bladder and surrounds the urethra. The
prostate secretes a thin, milky, alkaline fluid which lubricates the urethra to
prevent infection and increases sperm motility. Prostate secretions are
extremely important to successful fertilization for procreation. Benign
(non-malignant) enlargement of the prostate gland is known medically as “benign
prostatic hyperplasia” (BPH). Because an enlarged prostate can pinch off the
flow of urine, BPH is characterized by symptoms of bladder obstruction such as
increased urinary frequency, nighttime awakening to empty bladder, and reduced
force and caliber of urination.
Q How common is BPH?
A. Very. Current estimates are that it affects over 50%
of men in their lifetime. The actual frequency rate increases with advancing
age from approximately 5% to 10% at
age 30 to over 90% in men over 85 years of age.1
Q How is BPH
diagnosed?
A It is often recommended that men over the age of 40
have yearly prostate exams. This exam is not high tech. It simply involves a
doctor inserting a gloved finger into the rectum and feeling the lower part of
the prostate for any abnormality. However, in the case of BPH, often the
prostate has not enlarged to a point recognized by physical exam. And, in the
case of cancer, a digital exam is not reliable enough.
The classic enlarged prostate due to BPH will usually
feel softer (boggy) and may be two to three times larger than normal. In BPH
the prostate is non-tender, this differentiates it from prostatitis. The
classic finding in prostatic cancer is that the prostate feels much harder and
the border is not as well defined.
The
definitive diagnosis for BPH can be made with the aid of ultrasound
measurements. But, because the symptoms of BPH and prostate cancer can be quite
similar, a simple blood test is used to differentiate BPH from the more serious
prostate cancer. The blood test measures the levels of a protein that is
produced in the prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The PSA test is regarded as a
highly significant and ½ sensitive marker for
prostate cancer. The normal value for PSA is less than four nanograms per milliliter.
An elevation above 10 is highly indicative of prostate cancer.
There has been concern that the use of PSA as a
screening test for prostate cancer is not reliable enough. Although an elevated
level indicates prostate cancer, mid-range elevations in PSA can be caused by
BPH and in some instances, there may be prostate cancer yet PSA levels are not
elevated. Despite the fact that this test is not perfect, it is a simple,
relatively non-invasive test that can provide valuable information. PSA
screening has been endorsed by the American Cancer Society, the American
Urological Association, and other physicians’ groups.
If you are a man over the age of 50 and if any of your
immediate relatives—father, brother, or uncle—has had prostate cancer, an
annual prostate exam and PSA test is a very good idea.
WARNING: Prostate disorders can only be diagnosed by a physician. Do noi
sell-diagnose. If you are experiencing any symptoms associated with BPH or
prostate cancer. see your physician immediately for proper diagnosis.

Although
the saw palmetto extract has shown excellent results in numerous clinical
trials, results from a recent study are perhaps the most revealing.18 In
this study, 305 men were given 160 mg of the saw palmetto extract standardized
to contain 85% to 95% fatty acids and sterols twice daily. After 45 days, 83%
of patients estimated the drug was effective.
After
90 days, the percentage increased to 88%. Similarly, global evaluations made
by physicians after 45 and 90 days demonstrated 81% and 88% effectiveness,
respectively.
The
objective evaluations demonstrated remarkable improvements in all measurements.
Maximum urinary flow (ml/s) increased from 9.8 to 12.2, mean urinary flow rate
(ml/s) increased from 5.8 to 7.4, prostate volume (mm3) decreased from 40,348
to 36,246; and the international prostate symptom score decreased from 19.0 to
12.4. No serious adverse reactions were reported.
While
these results are impressive, perhaps the most impressive changes occurred in
the quality of life scores as shown in Table 2.
Table 2. Quality of life scores
Evaluation Day 0 Day 90
Delighted 0.6% 5.4%
Happy 2.3% 24.0%
Satisfied 9.7% 36.8%
Mitigated 22.7% 20.9%
Unsatisfied 43.8% 9.5%
Unhappy 18.5% 2.4%
Hopeless 2.3% 1.0%
These improvements demonstrate just how powerful of an effect that improving bothersome symptoms such as nocturia can have on an individuals mental outlook. Many men suffering from an enlarged prostate suffer from sleep deprivation. Improving sleep by reducing the number of times for nighttime urination is thought to be the major reason for the improvement in quality of life scores with saw palmetto extract. Another important finding from this study was that the saw palmetto extract had no demonstrable effect on serum prostatic specific antigen (PSA) levels.
OUR COMMENTS:
We do not
what to disillusion anyone about using this product because it is only one
substance that is the answer for only some people, even though it helps the
larger number. Also this type testing
method does not really prove that the product will work for anyone other
than those tested and because of the varying degree to which it worked
each individual, each person had their own degree of success!
The form of
science (the Empirical research method) used is pseudo-science and is
insufficient in doing this type of research.
It works with the physical sciences where testing the composition of
rocks and the like or other physical no life forms are being tested, but to use
it on biologically studies is asking for false information. It gives only part of the answer and does
not prove its usability across the board in the manner they want you to
believe.
This is why
they must always say, lets try this and see if it will work, because so and so
used it and had great results! This is
not science but the ARTFULL administration of dangerous modalities! This does not mean that it or any other
procedure will work for you. If it
does, then why are there so many failures to varying degrees and far to many
total failures after all is said and done?
Why do they
all not experience the same degree of success?
Why did not all of them have good results and why were there those who
did not get any help from it?
Even though
there did not seem to be any bad side effects for the length of time that is
was used, if those who used it continue to do so, they will begin to experience
other conditions that they will not attribute to the use of this herb.
If they
continue it use they will experience new conditions that will be directly
connected to its continued use and specifically after it no longer was needed
(on the false pretense of prevention).
It will become toxic! This and
many other things are scientifically provable facts, with our science.
They cannot
give you scientific answers to these questions.
We can answer
all of these questions and more, because our science gives us the answers!
Q How soon
should I expect to see results with saw palmetto extract?
While
the drug finesteride (Proscar) typically takes up to a year to produce
significant benefit, saw palmetto extract produces better results in a much
shorter period of time. Most patients achieve some relief of symptoms within
the first 30 days of treatment.

calculated as 90-day measurements.
**There are few
long-term studies on saw palmetto extract, yet the effect at three months (or
less) are obviously superior to Proscar.
Q What about other herbal medicines for an enlarged prostate such as
pygeum, pumpkin seed oil, and stinging nettle?
14 Based on careful examination of the published
literature, I would rate the relative effectiveness of these agents as follows:
saw palmetto
> pygeum > urtica> pumpkin seed oil. However, in certain situations
one herbal approach may be more effective than another. Even though I rate
pygeum lower than saw palmetto, in some cases it may produce better results
than saw palmetto. Each plant has a slightly different mechanism of action and can certainly be used in
combination safely.
To achieve the benefit with
saw palmetto, it is essential that the fat-soluble saw palmetto extracts are
standardized to contain 85% to 95% fatty
acids and sterols. These extracts are available in capsule form; take 160 mg
twice daily. A similar dose of active compounds using crude berries, fluid extracts,
and tinctures cannot be easily achieved. Again, if you want the best results,
make sure you are using the right extract at the right dosage.
Saw palmetto extract is completely safe as no significant side effects have ever been reported in the clinical trials of the extract or with saw palmetto berry ingestion.
Q What causes BPH?
A. BPH
is largely the result of hormonal changes associated with aging. It is clearly
dependent upon the actions of male hormones (androgens) within the prostate.
These changes within the prostate reflect the many significant changes in both
male (androgen), female (estrogen), and pituitary hormone levels in aging men.
The main male sex hormone testosterone (T) decreases with advancing age, but
estrogen, prolactin, LH, and FSH levels are all increased.
The ultimate effect of these changes is that within
the prostate gland there is an increased concentration of testosterone and an
increased conversion of this testosterone to an even more potent form known as
dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The increase in testosterone and DHT is largely due
to a decreased rate of removal combined with an increase in the activity of the
enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT.2 Elevated
estrogen levels are thought to be the key factor that inhibits the elimination
of DHT from the prostate in BPH.
Q is having an enlarged prostate dangerous?
A If left untreated, BPH will eventually obstruct the
bladder outlet resulting in the retention of urine and eventually kidney
damage. As this situation is potentially life-threatening, proper treatment is
crucial. In the past, medical treatment involved a procedure known as a TURP
(trans-urethral resection of the prostate).
Because this surgery is associated with a high rate of
morbidity and will often make matters worse, it should be avoided unless
absolutely necessary.
There are about 30 different plant-based compounds
currently available in Europe for the treatment of BPH. But, the most popular
(and seemingly most effective) is the extract of saw palmetto berry.
Q What is saw palmetto berry
extract?
A Saw palmetto extract is an extract made from the fruit
of a palm tree (Serenoa repens) native
to Florida that has been shown to significantly improve the signs and symptoms
of BPH in numerous clinical studies (see Table 1). The mechanism of action is
related to improving the hormonal metabolism within the prostate gland. As a
result of its multitude of effects, excellent results have been produced in
numerous clinical studies. Roughly 90% of men with mild to moderate BPH
experience some improvement in symptoms during the first four to six weeks of
therapy. All major symptoms of BPH are improved, especially nocturia (urinating
at night).619

Serenoa repens extract (85-95% fatty acids and sterols at a dosage of 320
mg daily)
Study 1
Authors: Cirillo, et al.
Type of study:
Open
Number of patients: 47
Length of study: 4 months
Results: Significant
difference for: nocturia, urine flow dysuria.
Q Are herbal
medicines effective in the treatment of BPH?
A Yes. But, the chance of clinical success with any of
the botanical treatments for BPH appears to be determined by the degree of
obstruction as indicated by the residual urine content (the amount of urine
left in the bladder after urination as determined by ultrasound). For levels
less than 50 ml, the results are usually excellent. For levels between 50 and
100 ml, the results are usually quite good. Residual urine levels between 100
ml and 150 ml will be tougher to produce significant improvements in the
customary four- to six-week period. If the residual urine content is greater
than 150 ml, saw palmetto extract and other botanical medicines are not likely
to produce any significant improvement
Q Is BPH common in other parts of the world?
A Yes. Interestingly, however, is the fact that
plant-based medicines are much more popular prescriptions in Europe than their
synthetic counterparts, according to an article published in the British Journal of Urology. Specifically
in Germany and Austria botanical medicines are considered “first-line”
treatments for BPH and account for greater than 90% of all drugs in the medical
management of BPH. In Italy, plant extracts are prescribed 10 times more
frequently than drugs like Proscar and Hytrin.3~

OUR COMMENTS:
There are many more studies
that could be given. We believe that
better results will be obtained if all of those who have successfully and
unsuccessfully used these products were gathered. This information could be put
into one study and it would provide the best and most accurate results of their
use. But this is not practical, as good
an idea as it may be, information of the past two hundred years of their use is
not available, except in books of recorded use that say it worked well or in
varying degrees.
Because double blind
Empirical Pseudo-science is not very effective, in the manner it is being used,
individual studies are more effective.
Now if you look at these
Empirically done studies as a study of individuals who use the same or
different substances, than you will know that the products works with that
problem for that person and not for others, which proves the science that
dictates these types of outcomes!
