Use of Ivermectin vs covid19

Live healthy and long

Rizal Philippines
3.30.2021

FDA and DOH have flagged down of Ivermectin vs covid19.   The drug is for family use and used vs heartworm  disease  In order for MDs to use this, they have to file for Compassionate Special Use.   The DOH and FDA have legal basis for saying no;   however some are arguing that the alternative covid medicine, Remdisivir is allowed because the company that owns it is allegedly connected to a government official  

The other sideto prove that Ivermectin in other countries work - may be anecdotal.

Only Steroid and Pain killer - the Fabunan vaccine.

Live healthy and long

Anti viral preparation by Dr. Ruben Fabunan of Zambales

Patent Application of Dr. Ruben Fabunan


Fabunan Anti-Viral Injection - Posts | Facebook
Thought this was a new disruptive invention.


The much publicized invention of Dr  Ruben Fabunan from Zambales as cure for coVid19 was found to contain:


    1. Procaine (a pain killer)
    2. Dexamethasone (an anti flammatory - a steroid, a unversal cure for inflammation)

in the right formulation   A formulation

whose indication include virus caused diseases like flu, HIV, dengue. for full and speedy recovery.  And now our good doctor would like to treat coVid19  Sincerely I hope it works for all.  Sana all.

There is nothing new here because both components can readily be bought and available at all drugstores.  Surely the formulation would work vs co Vid because it is condition of inflammation - of free iron radicals disassociated from the haeme of the blood, causing inflammation of the lungs liver and other  vital organs.  Steroids, vit C, anti  LMWH anti coagulants, and steroid on top of high volume 02 are part of protocol for covid treatment.

The drug would surely mask the symptoms (inflammation and pain) but not the cause.... A vaccine would still have to be discovered.

FDA warns against use of unproven drugs, vaccines for treatment of ...

Electronic Cigarettes more harmful to health real cigarette smoking?

Live healthy and long

From Dr. Mercola archives | April 10, 2013 

In order to go around cigarette smoking which is considered dangerous to health (cause of cancer and COPD, and other respiratory diseases) electronic cigarette has been invented and is gaining popularity.

However Dr Mercola, whose mother is into electronic cigarette, to get rid of regular smoking investigated electronic cigarette.

How does cigarette smoking work?

When you take a puff of the electronic cigarette (which l in 5 smokers have tried) the battery heats a fluid that contains -  flavoring like vanilla, cherry, menthol, java, tobacco and even nicotine to deliver cigarette like smoking experience and humectant (propylene glycol, or vegetable glycerin)

However FDA has disturbing findings on the electronic cigarettes:    like presence of anti freeze like substance diethylene glycol, and tobacco specific nitrosamines which are carcinogenic along with metallic nanoparticles. like tin, copper, nickel, silicates. and silver.  In general, the amount of tin inhaled may be greater than those found in conventional smoking.

The metals come from metal components of cartomizers, and silicates from fiberglass filters.  Would better workmanship eliminate the metal nanoparticles?

However their nano sizes (as with PM 2.5 nano particles of air pollution) could easily infiltrate, the lungs, blood cells and other body tissues.  (Same action) and lead to long term inflammation, and probably even cancer

Milk Producers Petition FDA to allow sugar substitutes in milk

Live healthy and long

From Dr Mercola archives | March 13 2013 

Two large association of dairy producers in the US:  International Dairy Food Association (IDFA) and National Milk Producers Association have petitioned FDA to allow unlabeled inclusion of sugar substitutes in milk:  aspartame and sucrolose (splenda).  The idea/objective is to reduce obesity in children (a growing concern in USA) by providing low calorie alternative with sugar/sweetener substitute.

Aspartame, after a series of processes in the body can become methyl alcohol which becomes formalin after absorption in the brain contributing to Alzheimer's, cancer and multiple sclerosis

Natural Foods the Feds Want to Banish - One Step Closer to a Police State?

From Dr. Mercola Archives | February 20, 2013

This is a rather paranoid outlook on the private industries (more of a rant) vs the military industrial govt complex (that the leftists love to say)  It says that the government through FTC and FDA ruling has encroached on civil liberties.  The article even includes the petition vs FAA to reveal drone flights spying on civilians...

The article laments/attacks ruling  of FTC which is now similar to FDA requiring double blind RCT (random controlled trial) for food claims/ads.  The ban on raw milk (only pasteurized) which is natural,  the FDA warning vs Omega 3 food supplements,  the FDA support on amalgam tooth fillings which contain mercury which we know poisons the body

Beer drinker stung dead by an energy drink

Live healthy and long.

I can sleep soundly lately.  The beer garden next to my room is unusually quiet.  Why?

Why?  One of the beer drinker/habitues just died and was buried over the weekend.  He was rumored to have died from drinking an energy drink that contains l00+ mg of caffeine, and named after a venomous snake after he had a drinking session (to keep himself awake?)  He did not wake up anymore.

I used to drink this to keep myself awake when I taught at Clark while driving.  Somebody warned me that there is too much of active ingredients in the drink that may damage my kidneys.

The funeral undertaker (and this is hearsay) says that they have many cases of death from drinking the same energy drink after a beer/liquor drinking session.

What could be the mechanism of action causing death?

Should the public be warned?

Should these deaths be investigated by FDA?

Is aspartame in your softdrink with Zero ill effect?

Live healthy and long

From Dr Mercola

It is called by various names when used in food preparation:  sugar free, sugar less, zero sugar, diet, light.  Its safety in food is assured by FDA, but various research says otherwise.

It is a synthetic sweeter, hardly natural or made of amino acid. It is composed of  aspartic acid, and phenylalanine, and held together by methyl ester bond.  The problem is that when ingested, the substance releases methanol which is also known as wood alcohol and passes through the blood brain barrier and becomes formalaldehyde and  formic acid which we know is used as embalming fluid.

Methanol damages the myelin sheath of the nerves, which are insulators for neuro conduction of impulses.  Formalaldehyde is toxic and carcinogenic.

Aspartame damages your brain and may cause craving contributes to obesity

Concern over Arsenic in Rice in USA

Live healthy and long

From NewsmaxHealth

An alarm has been raised over elevated levels of arsenic in rice being sold in USA.

Rice is more likely to contain arsenic because of it being grown in water.  There are two types:  organic (naturally occurring and passes quickly through the body) and inorganic coming from pesticides.

There are no federal standards for arsenic in rice.  Of the 200 samples tested by FDA, the arsenic level was 3.5 to 6.7.  Consumer reports showed 8.7.  Consumer Union wants the benchmark level to be 5 mcg.

FDA denies petition of Corn Refiners Association on HFCS

Effective Cures that are Cheap for Everyone

                         


FDA slammed the door on Corn Refiner's Association petition to rename High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) as corn sugar, allegedly to avoid confusion


FDA says no to request for HFCS rebranding

But sugar is sugar and a syrup is a syrup.

We see a rise in number of people with Type 2 diabetes and what could be the cause?

HFCS has been getting bad press lately as cause of diabetes and other illness It causes obesity, because it causes spike of insulin, which blocks the action of glucagon which dissolves fat. (I feel bad when I take 3 in l coffee, which I found out uses HFCS)   I now know the culprit behind the unexplained spike of my blood sugar although I watch my diet carefully?

 Isn't the HFCS called the chemical sugar.?

Cherries are Effective as Anti Inflammatory

Effective Cures Can be Cheap


As Will Rogers once said, "I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts."
And if those facts weren't so infuriating, maybe they would be funny.
Consider the latest bad joke our own FDA is playing on us. They now consider a fruit eaten for millennia -- cherries (yes, that's cherries) -- an "unapproved drug!"
Haven't heard about the FDA's courageous stand against the cherry, yet? Well, wait 'til you get a load of this one.
In 1999, a report in the Journal of Natural Products (published by the American Chemical Society, the world's largest scientific society) concluded that tart cherries may relieve pain better than aspirin and other anti-inflammatory drugs.
Gout sufferers have known about this for decades. Even the intense pain and inflammation of an acute gout attack usually disappears completely after consumption of one to three pints of concentrated cherry juice over the course of just a few days.
Cherries and concentrated cherry juice work for other pain, too, although both have a lot of carbs and calories so it's better to use capsules of cherry concentrate for longer-term pain and inflammation relief. Capsules also have the advantage of reducing inflammation at just 1/10 the dosage of aspirin.
Cherries rival top-selling anti-inflammatory drugs
In the study mentioned above, the consumption of about 20 cherries reduced inflammation in a manner similar to that of aspirin or the "cox-2" inhibiting drugs, without the side effects of gastric bleeding or vitamin depletion associated with these drugs.
But when cherry growers began to cite this scientific research, the FDA sent warning letters to 29 companies that market cherries, threatening regulatory action if they didn't remove the science regarding the anti-inflammatory properties of cherries from their websites.
Does it seem like the FDA is being irrational to anyone else? What's worse is that irrational behavior combined with power can be very dangerous. But, unfortunately, this is nothing new.
For decades, the FDA has been a danger to you and your family's health. Nearly 20 years ago, the government's own General Accounting Office (GAO) wrote: "GAO found that of the 198 drugs approved by FDA between 1976 and 1985...102 (or 51.5%) had serious post-approval risks...the serious postapproval risks...[included] heart failure, myocardial infarction, anaphylaxis, respiratory depression and arrest, seizures, kidney and liver failure, severe blood disorders, birth defects and fetal toxicity, and blindness."
That terrible record continues into the 21st century (Vioxx is just one example that springs immediately to mind).
And to add insult to injury, while it has been busy approving all those potentially lethal patent medicines, the FDA has also been actively fighting against your right to keep yourself healthy with foods and food supplements! Picking on cherries is just one recent example. All the way back in 1949, former FDA commissioner Dr. George Larrick said: "The activities of...so-called health food lecturers have increasingly engaged our attention....[we are fighting] the good fight against dried vegetables, vitamins, and similar products."
And in 2007, the FDA even released a report on its own incompetence, titled FDA Science and Mission at Risk. You can find it easily online by entering the title into Google.
Real FDA reform is long, long overdue. But you can help get the process started. Some key natural health organizations have joined in an effort to reform FDA. Please visit www.reformFDA.org to read much more about this effort, and please consider signing the petition! Your own health--and the health of all Americans--is at stake.
Yours in good health,

Can Your Shampoo Cause Cancer?

Effective Cures Can be Cheap

Personal care products are not regulated by FDA.  Some of personal care products may contain plenty of carcinogenic substances.  It has been found in a newsmax health feed that some lotions and shampoos contain components of industrial products that are harmful.

The article suggests that if the product contains long names that are difficult to pronounce, it is probable they are harmful.  Therefore, look before you use.
