Anti-cancer drugs are deemed so toxic that they are considered a hazard for everyone who handles them and may be exposed to them. How safe could they be for the patient?

No Joke: Prunes Beat Psyllium for Relief of Constipation
From the Tufts Health & Nutrition Letter:
Long the object of jokes, prunes now have the last laugh. New research demonstrates that prunes (dried plums) are more effective than psyllium fiber in combating constipation. The randomized control crossover trial with 40 constipated subjects, average age 38, compared 50 grams (about 1.76 ounces) daily of prunes with 11 grams of psyllium (Metamucil) for three weeks each, with a one-week "washout" period in-between. Both dosages supplied the same amount of dietary fiber, 6 grams. The prune regimen improved regularity by 94%, compared to 75% for the psyllium; measures of stool consistency also improved more when subjects were consuming prunes. Since the two regimens delivered identical amounts of fiber, researchers suggested that other nutrients in prunes such as sorbitol and polyphenols might be responsible for the difference. The study was funded by the California Dried Plum Board but conducted independently at the University of Iowa. - Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics
And prunes test better too!

Today's physician has been reduced to a high paid legal drug pusher. The insurance and pharma cartels have hijacked what is now called "healthcare". There is no more time to talk to a patient. You are no longer a name. Your doctor doesn't now you. You are simply a head waiting for the next drug, a commodity for the insurance and pharmaceutical companies.. Or are you?

Lead in Kid's Juice Drinks
According to the Environmental Law Foundation, a San Francisco-based environmental nonprofit, which enlisted the aid of a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency-certified lab in Berkeley, nearly 400 samples from 150 branded products marketed to children, including apple juice, grape juice, packaged pears and peaches (including baby food), and fruit cocktail mixes contained an alarming amount of lead: 125 out of 146 products—or more than 85%—contained enough lead in a single serving to warrant a warning label under California’s Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, better known as Prop. 65.
Exposure to lead is a serious health problem, especially for children's developing nervous systems. Most known is the exposure to paint chips and from diesel exhaust. Now we see that lead poisoning is ubiquitous in the environment.
What to do? Get tested. Test your home. Once you know lead levels in your body and home you can chart out an action course. First is to reduce and eliminate your exposure as much as possible. Next is to get the poison out of your body. A good detox program is in order. I suggest a diet built upon high protein, minerals, fatty acids and high water intake. Core nutrients such as a cilantro, chlorella and chlorella growth factor, garlic, fish oil, and a balanced electrolyte drink. Glutathione may also be very helpful.
A bentonite clay bath for adults and children is also a useful tool. Bentonite clay can be taken internally as well.

Skull, Membrane and Fluid in The Book of Concealment
From my former HS classmate, friend, and Cranial Therapy expert, Stuart Berger:
Although the medical origins of Cranial Therapy go back to the Osteopathic founders- Still and Sutherland, its spiritual and energetic roots can be found in the ancient Jewish mystical writings.
From the introductory remarks of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai in the Book of Concealment – Safra Det'Zniuta:
Concealment was installed within concealment and settled in a skull…
Full of crystal dew…
The membrane of air was purified and hidden…
The will of wills is revealed on the forehead….
Supervision from the open eye, that never sleeps and guards constantly…
