Stopping 300,000 MT sugar importation a cure for diabetes?

Live healthy and long

The plan to import 300,000 metric tons of sugar, proposed to SRA chairman and  DA secretary PBBM was reported to have  been denied by Malacanang.

Surely there will be supply issues for both consumers and industrial users.   And much more this will deny sugar to many pre diabetics and diabetics.   The only way to lower BS is not to take any form of sugar.  Surely this supplty problem is a cure.

Concerns raised on face to face classes, monkey pox, and dengue

Live healthy and long

Citizens have to face 3 fold concerns over 3 health issues:    face to face classes, monkey pox, and more cases of dengue.

1.  For covid 19, cases are rising and projected to be as high as 10,000 in October
2.  There is all ready a monkey pox case in the Philippines   Elsewhere in the world as in USA, there has been an increase in the number of cases
3.   An alarm has been raised over the increase in number of dengue and deaths from the said disease.  It seems to be reching an epidemic status

But #1 is sure is a great concern.  More infectious strains are spreading, And surely face to face classes are superspreader events.   While we try to revive the economy 10,000 cases per day is worrisome.   

In Japan and South Korea, there has been an upsurge in the number of cases.  In Jpan, it was as high as more than 100,000 cases per day.  

Rethinking on face to face classes at this point   The children are very vulnerable because most of them are  unvaccinated

Dr Neal Barnard - a nutrition approach towards diabetes; eliminate fat

Live healthy and long

Dr.  Barnard observed that the approach to diabetes has been to  reduce sugar intake since symptoms show too much sugar in the blood.  He however conducted a research that showed that the blood sugar cant enter the cells because of the block to the intramcellular portion of the cell and that is the presence of fat that prevents insulin from releasing blood sugard to the cellular level

Therefore the key to preventing and curing diabetes is lessening fat to cover the cells.  Thus a vegan approach to treating diabetes.

It was observed that patients who have lesser fatty diet completely reversed the diabetes.   For those who continue to be on same diet, the diabetes progressed.

'In Japan, where there is low incidence of diabetes, it was observed that diabetes incidence quickly increased due to export of fast food:    burgers and fried chicken.

Conflicts in easing of health protocols for Covid19

Live healthy and long






This is an example of one of conflicts in issuances of orders and directives with regards to covid19.. This can result from:

1.  Uneven distribution of communication;
2.  Turf battle, power play among local chieftains
3.  Wrong interpretation and own interpretation of frontliners and/or local chieftains

On the day that it was to be effective, the only requirement for the travel to a Region 1 province was ID.  On the ground we were asked to show the vax cards...

It is a battle between the local heads wanting to keep their jurisdiction safe from the intrusions of foreigners, and  economic recovery.  

How many such incidents took place during the two years covid19 onslaught

Philippine positivity rate at 2.5%; is the pandemic over?

Live healthy and long

Is the country ready to declare fire out for Covid19?




The Philippines is currently seeking from the WHO if it can declare Covid19 over in the Philippines. It the positivity  rate  being 2.5% only.   However this post believe this is too early to declare based on a 11 day stats.  

1. Europe is an epicenter nd many Filipinos who live there might come home this Christmas;
2.  Only 40 million of the  110 million Filipinos have been vaccinated.  There is no herd immunity yet.
3.  Such declaration will cause many people to be complacent and infection can spread again  

As per WHO positivity rare should be lower than 5%.   Our positivity rate for the last 10 days is as follows:   

  • November 14 - 3.9%
  • November 15 - 4.1%
  • November 16 - 3.2%
  • November 17 - 3.5%
  • November 18 - 3.4%
  • November 19 - 3.5%
  • November 20 - 3.2%
  • November 21 - 2.8%
  • November 22 - 2.8%
  • November 23 - 2.3%
  • November 24 - 2.5%

According to clinical trials, patients who were on Lagundi protocols recovered faster.  This was according to DOST chief.  Fortunato Lapena. in a Laging Handa forum  They are also conducting tests on VCO.

I for one thing, whenever this post munched a fistful of Lagundi experienced a soothing menthol like effect whenever the leaves juice reach my throat.  Perhaps this effect makes for easier breathing

This is good for many of our citizens who cant afford an expensive Remdi dose which sometimes cost about a P100K in hospitals.  (It is P80K) in black market.

The Messenger RNA technology has disrupted the current vaccine technology

1.  Made the vaccine safer.  The MRNA simply instructs the body soldiers to create specific antibodies vs the disease;  there is no injection of dead virus into the body and is safer

2.  The vaccine development has been accelerated.  Some say that the vaccine development took only a weekend to formulate

3.  Shows promise in anti cancer treatment and other viruses.

Exodus effect - anti inflammatory finding the right formula for annointed oil.

Live healthy and long

Rizal Philippines
4.25.2021










A pastor researched a cure for his wife suffering from pains.  It led him to discover that a translation 300 years AD of the bible was interpreted as Calamus, but actually cana bosh (From research of Dr. Benet).  Cannabis but is not marijuana.

He discovered that cannabis is anti inflammatory.  He tried this with his wife.  But had no effect. 
One day, by coincidence, he had sermon on Exodus 20:20 on annointed oil.    

The annointed oil was mentioned in Exodus 32:23.  It contains 1.  myrhh (a resin that contained AKBA a potent anti inflammatory, 2.  Cinammon,  3.  Kasia and 4.  Olive Oil

  • Cinnamon

This is a very common spice that is used throughout the world. Many cuisines involve cinnamon due to its great aroma, incredible flavours, etc. This is also a much potent herb found in many traditional medicines.

The bark of this plant is dried up and powdered to use. It has been shown to aid in digestion and stomach health. Cinnamon is rich in antioxidants that prevent cell damage due to oxidation. Also, it helps the body detox, expelling the harmful chemicals and toxins from your body. 

  • Olive Oil

Olive Oil is derived from olives and has been used by humans for millennia. The Greco-Roman culture held special importance for olives and olive oil in general. The oil is found to be rich in nutrients, antioxidants, etc.

Olive Oil is a great source of polyunsaturated fatty acids and Omega-3. This promotes immune health and better vision among other benefits. Applied topically, olive oil is a great sun blocker that prevents the damage caused by sun rays. Some studies have even shown it to reduce the chances of skin cancer and thus is a major ingredient of cosmetic products. 

  • Cassia

This another subspecies of the cinnamon tree found mainly across China that, however, stands out from the south-Indian counterpart. Cassia is considered a lower flavour quality but is no less in its health benefits. Cassia helps people regulate their blood pressure and blood sugar levels.

This herb has been known to help remove bad cholesterol from your body, aiding in weight loss. It improves your blood flow, muscle mass, and immunity, etc. 

  • Myrrh

Myrrh is the dried-up sap of Commiphora Myrrha found across the northern parts of Africa and south-western Asia. Historically, it has been used as an incense and flavouring. The essential oil of Myrrh is extracted through a distillation process and is used in many applications today.

It is a major component of cosmetic products and dermatological medicines. It has been used to treat pains, inflammations, etc, in Ayurveda. It is a strong antibacterial that helps kill harmful bacteria. This way it helps treat issues such as skin sores, infections, etc. 

All of these ingredients are completely natural items that could right now be on your kitchen shelf. All of these ingredients are extremely beneficial to your health and pose no negative



He worked herbalist Paul but still no result on his wife.   Paul nearly gave up, but found the right formula.  Finally, his wife was rid of the pain.  Now he is sharing his formula with every one -  to protect people from pain, increase relations with God.   

The research is available in the book Exodus Effect  that costs $67.00

Oh no, its only now that they say covid19 is airborne. - its a droplet infection

Live healthy and long

Rizal Philippines
4.24.2021




















Just last week a medical scientist was being interviewed about covid19 being airborne.  It is kind of late to emphasize this because about 2nd quarter last year, foreign journals were full of publication about Fluggean theory on covid19 spread.  

We are kind of late in accepting that covid  is airborne.  We are kind of fixated that is like a bacteria which could be stopped by foot bath, by disinfectant, steam  and wiping off fomites.   

We were influenced by the movie Pandemic.  But covid19 is unlike the disease in Pandemic.   

Covid19 is spread by droplet coming from coughing, speaking, singing thus the spread is ripe from

     1.   People close to one another;
     2.  In an enclosed space where ventilation is full
     3.  Where there is enough time for viral loading.

Thus the following events should be banned and avoide.

    1.  Parties
    2.  Drinking sessions
    3.  Sports events
    4.  Direct face to face classes;
    5.  Dining 
    6,  Religious events:   masses, choir singing, funeral

Thus it would seem absurd that various quarters quarrel with politics and religious doctrine when all the public health officials wanted is to stop the spread of the disease

Sometimes our fear and so with our non public health officials order

Some measures are inutile:

     1.  Highway checkpoints
     2.  Physical barriers
     3.   Traffic flow  etc.

The covid 19 virus are molecules and non living but only acquires life when attached to the epitheleal cell of the host.  Even a dead person can not infect you (unless you ingest the body fluids) since he can not speak nor spew out the droplet infection.   

It is spread by droplet infection:   as large drops in cough or sneeze, or microdroplets when we talk or sing.    We are now getting it from family members.

The best bet vs covid 19 are:  1.  building immunity, 2.  face mask   3.  face shield  

Keep safe.  Wear masks, Stay away from crowds

A friend  just sent me a video,  on Dr. Lito Cubelo:  what he did for free for covid19 victims who cant get hospital admission.    Dr Lito Cubelo at Facebook

He also gave advice on home cures for covid19:

    1.  Take mucolytic agents
    2.   Take Azithromycin
    3.   Take vitamins C, D with Zinc to strengthen immunity.  






The admonition to stay at home to stay safe may no longer be correct - there are many household infections

Rizal Philippines

Public Health Authorities used to encourage people to to stay home and be safe.


That may no longer be correct.  Many people get infected at home,  thanks to fast infection rate from new covid 19 variants.   People get sick  when eating together, partying, or just staying together..

The house satisfies the requirement for transmission:   close  personal contact, lot of time staying together for the viral loading, and enclosed space

What is the next move as the spread rages across households?

WEAR MASKS AND  FACE SHIELD AT HOMES. SOCIAL DISTANCING.  STAY OUTDOORS.

ISOLATION -   SEPARATE  ROOMS AND CR.

Covid19 onslaught scary; will the surge stop

Live healthy and long

Rizal Philippines
4.06,2021.   








The rise in number of cases is scary and alarming:

1.  A street was closed because 30 employees in a factory along that street got the infection;
2.  A street in another part of the town was closed because 3 got infected.
3.  My neighbor, a tricycle driver, got covid and was confined in a govt covid19 center.   His wife who took care of him, also got hit.  
4.  My daughter experienced colds, chills and cough yesterday.  However, it was a psychosomatic reaction I think.  She is ok now.   

If the checkpoints, stern warning from the police, arrests are getting into you, better understand and be patient.  We are also getting mixed up with ECQ and GCQ guidelines.   Under ECQ, strict rules on quarantine are imposed.   Exercising freely are under GCQ

In the meantime, while Covid19 vaccination is on going, and expert declared that getting only the first dose of the vaccine is as good as not getting this yet.   Immunity is obtained after the second dose administration.  

So every one keep safe.  Stay at home, observe the health protocols when with other  persons, in a crowd or enclosed spaces

Recent events came up regarding use of Ivermectin in the Philippines vs covid19

1.  There is a video of a Philippine doctor haranguing Phil health authorities threat to suspend the license of Drs who will prescribe Ivermectin;

2.  A dra who is inaanak shared a video regarding Ivermectin;  her video shared says that the drug is good as a prophylaxis and treatment of covid19

3  A lawyer friend who was former IBP Pres in MM dm'd me regarding their petitiion to PDU30 to allow use of Ivermectin.  

Can we have this as another option in the  Philippines due to 1.   rising number of cases (15,000 yesterday)
2.  dearth of vaccine .  Another is lianhua - Chinese medicine China FDA approved and available in the Philippines

3.7 billion doses have been used world wide.  It was discovered by a Japanese doctor Satoshi Omura, a recipient of Nobel Prize, which was initially used vs parasite, but later on found out be effective with a host of other virus.  He co developed this with Dr. William Campbell (who also was given the Nobel prize)  Or Omura discovered this from a soil he found near a golf course.  


There is all ready politicalization vs the drug.   FDA USA has cautioned  against its use for covid; and so with Phil FDA, and WHO.    Congress Speaker Velasco has endorsed its use.     Merck has cautioned vs its use.

Lianhua, a Chinese Medicine, OTC FDA approved, supported by abstracts as alternative to fight the pandemic

Live healthy and long

Rizal Philippines
4.02.202






A video is going around in the messenger about the traditional Chinese medicine used by MMDA chairman BenHur Abalos in his medicatioin when he contracted the dreaded viral disease after getting this in the covid ward.  This is FDA approved and marked OTC   This is Linhua and costs only P180 per box and is available at Mercury.






In the midst of resurgence, hospital capacity exceeded (no more rooms available and uncertainty about the vaccines (supply safety, and efficacy) this could be the breakthrough.   


Before the good chairman took the medicine when he started having the symptoms he had the med double checked (beginning with former Sen. Bong2) and its efficacy was confirmed.  The conclusion of scientific studies say:

Unlike evidence-based modern medicine, traditional Chinese medicine is an empirical medicine developed on accumulated clinical observations gathered over centuries of practice. It not only deals with the etiological factor to eradicate the pathogenic microbial, but also supports the body's immune function to help fight the disease and ameliorate its consequences. In ancient times, when facing infectious disease, specific pathogens could not be identified; however, doctors could observe the patient's sign and symptoms, assess the condition and develop strategies and formulas for the different stages of the illness.

So far there are over 133 ongoing registered clinical studies on TCM/integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine. The results of 16 published papers on this topic (not including case reports) and a systematic review on 8 clinical trials (804 cases) have suggested that integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine can reduce the incidence of severe or critical events, improve clinical recovery and help alleviate symptoms such as cough or fever16. Two papers17,18 reported the detailed information of its adverse reactions during the treatment for COVID-19.



Mostly recommended in Chinese hospitals

Maybe this is the reason why China does not need vaccines and/or why covid19 is under control  


SHIJIAZHUANG CITY, China--()--Recently, China’s National Health Commission and State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine jointly-published The Diagnosis and Treatment Protocol for COVID-19 (Trial Version 8), recommending that Lianhua Qingwen Capsule, a Chinese traditional medicine, be used during the medical observation period of COVID-19 patients.

Lianhua Qingwen’s selection to the protocol demonstrates the recognition from Chinese authorities of its outstanding performance to control COVID-19 in China. It is learned that during the pandemic, Lianhua Qingwen has been widely used in designated hospitals and medical institutions in China, and has become the most recommended Chinese medicine in the COVID-19 treatment programs from the country’s provinces and municipalities.






Is the country missing out alternative meds vs. covid19

    1.   Ivermectin  2.  linhua, 3.  colchicine,  4.  rhinovirus   5.  convalescent plasma  6.  VCO
