PreDiabetic, Post-Diabetic, Insulin Shutdown, Pancreatic Cancers: Dehydration.

As far as I understand, during the immediately prediabetic phase of function, or its post-diabetic phase of insulin shutdown, pancreatic cancers are also associated with dehydration.

I am of the opinion that type 1 diabetes --- the kind you must inject insulin to control, even though it is classified as an autoimmune disease --- is another of the many complications of dehydration.
 
 Autoimmune diseases are also dehydration produced. it seems dehydration-produced cancers are more frequent in tissues that have secretory functions, like the intestinal tract, the breast, or the pancreas

Other pains are also related to dehydration:

* Arthritis pain of the hand, arm, and leg joints.

* Back and neck pain.

* Migraine headaches. These should be taken as a serious indicator of " brain thirst" that herald eventual disruption of brain function, including brain tumors or degenerative diseases such as MS, Parkinson's disease, and even Alzheimer's disease. 

* Angina.

* Fibromyalgia, denoting acid buildup in the muscles and the connective tissue --- the locomotive faculties of the body.

* And more. 

Adequate rehydration should be the first step toward pain relief. Hydration is a godsend solution for these pains. Take it from me and test water as a natural painkiller.  



 It has become an established trend to silence the pains of the body with some sort of chemical without knowing the wider physiological  implications of the pain mechanism and its significant association with the level of acidity in the body. Pain means that an area is acidic. This can cause severe damage to the DNA structure of the cells within the area.

Brain Cancer Patient still lives

Brain Cancer – Yet She Lives !

CT, 42 years old, came to see us in September 2008. There was a tumour in her head. The neurosurgeon in a private hospital in Penang told the family that she must undergo surgery immediately. Without the surgery CT would become blind and paralysed. If she underwent surgery, there was no guarantee that she would be cured.

The family decided against further medical treatment and came to seek our help on 12 September 2008. CT was prescribed Capsule A, Brain 1 and Brain 2 teas, C-tea + Brain Leaf tea.

Two days on the herbs, CT’s condition improved and all pains were gone. She was able to talk better. She returned to her hometown, Medan, Indonesia. Two months later, CT came back to see us again. Her health was restored. After this second visit we never get to see CT again.

Some months later, we had news that CT was not well. Well, we thought this was it – the end of the story – since she had not been taking herbs anymore. In the meantime, we were rather excited about her healing story. This was yet another miraculous healing which we can share with you all. We made 10 video clips documenting her healing. But our efforts seemed meaningless since we didn’t even know what the end result was. These video clips were stored away – forgotten.

About two years later – June 2010 – CT’s neighbors came to our centre. They told us that CT was still doing fine. We were taken aback by this news thinking that she was not around anymore. Of course we were really happy and grateful to hear this news. On 1 October 2010, CT’s relatives came to see us. They again told us that CT was indeed well.

Let us follow CT’s healing story by listening to these videos which we thought would not have seen day light anymore. Our conversation was in Bahasa Indonesia. To help those who don’t understand the language, there is a brief English summary after each clip.

1. The Confirmation – CT Was Indeed Well After Two Years


Neighbours (June 2010)

· CT is still alive?

· Yes, she is healthy now and is teaching in her school.

· Thank God for everything – that she is well.

· At one time, she ate meat and became ill.

· Now if she walks in the sun, she gets headaches or become giddy.

Relatives (October 2010)

· CT came to see my husband in the hospital. She asked us to come and see you immediately. My husband has nose cancer.

· You have seen her? Is she alright? She said she will come to see you one day.

· I did not expect to be able to help her – it’s God’s blessing.

2. To Operate or Not To Operate?
· If no operation, she would be blind or paralysed. The operation cost about RM 18,000 to RM 19,000. Can operation cure her? No guarantee – not sure. If no operation, she would be paralysed. With operation would she end up pahttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifralysed as well? Don’t know!

· Do you want to operate? The surgeon said this must be done immediately. Decide quickly.

· Do you want to know the experiences of other patients?

a) For one patient, the tumour recurred and grew bigger than the initial tumour that was removed soon after the operation.

b) My friend’s wife was urged to operate immediately, although I cautioned him against this. After the operation she was paralysed and died soon afterwards.

c) Another patient had surgery. The tumour recurred. He had surgery again and again. After that this same surgeon told the brother. Please bring him home (to Jakarta, before he dies in the hospital)!

· I cannot encourage you to go for the operation. But I also cannot say: Don’t go for the operation. (This has to be entirely your decision. I cannot take responsibility for this decision).

· In whatever you do, the most important point is: Can you achieve a cure? But it is uncertain – there is no guarantee. Now, even if you take my herbs, I cannot guarantee that you can be cured.http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

· So, what is your decision?

3. What to Do Now?

· I shall prescribe you some herbs. You can try drinking them. Let’s see if these will help you. Within 2 weeks, we should be able to know if they help or not. If the herbs help and you get better, continue taking them.

· There was this man, Ramli, from Aceh. He had brain cancer like you. He was also asked to operate. He refused and came to see me. He took herbs. After a week he came back – looking better and was able to sit down and talk to me nicely. Before that he was not able to sit and talk. He was full of anger. He went home to Aceh and was able to ride his motorbike and travelled over 100 km. After three months, he stopped taking the herbs. He suffered a relapse. Went to a hospital in Aceh, underwent an operation and died.

· So it is now up to you what you want to do.

· One important point: You must take care of your diet. You cannot eat anything you like. No meat, no sugar, etc for you. These are not good for your cancer.

4. Medical History
http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
· For the past two months she had been having headaches. Her speech was slurry. One day she vomited and was unconscious. Later she developed severe headaches. They were so severe that she yelled in pain.

· I am going to give all the herbs that I have for brain cancer. From my experience these herbs help patients with such problem.

· God help you. So go home and talk to God.
http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
· We should be able to know the outcome within two weeks. If there is no progress – then I really don’t know what else to do.

5. Two Days After the Herbs

· You came on Friday – only 2 days ago. How are you today?

· Look at me first before we talk!

· Okay, you looked better. Your face looks good and clear.

· No more dizzy! Blurred vision has improved!

· The surgeon told us that if there was no operation, within a week there would be bleeding and she would be paralysed.

· Thank God. Now we are on the right direction – proceed!

· What kind of fish can I ….? Wait first, wait first. I am not going to talk about food yet. Can I eat bread? Wait.

· Let me tell you this; All patients – when they are dying they will follow my diet advice. But when are get better they will want to start eating anhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifything they like!

· After taking the herbs for 2 days, how did you feel?

· I felt a “flowing” sensation in my left leg – like massage. I also felt the “flow” in my left side of the head. But there was no pain.

· Before the herbs, my face swelled a bit. After a day on the herbs, the swelling subsided.

6. Herbs are Bitter – She Vomited

· Are you better? You went home to Medan. Did you still continue taking the herbs?

· Yes – I took them three times a day!

· Was the herbs bitter? Oh yes, really bitter! I vomited for about ten times after taking the herbs.

· Brain 1 and Brain 2 did not cause any problem. It was the C-tea and Brain Leaf that made me vomit.

· That was strange, I thought it was the Brain Teas that were difficult to drink, not the C-tea and Brain leaf. I thought these were good tasting – I too used to drink them.
http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
7.Diet – A Problem

· Initially, the diet was not good tasting doc!

· When I ate too much I vomited.

· She did not eat well, that made her weak.

· Can I meat mutton? Oh, no!
http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
· It is important that you eat well. You cannot live without eating. But just eat proper food. Take a lot of fruits! Take beans, etc.

8.Gone Were The Pains and Anger

· I was amazed doc, the pains in my head were all gone.

· Previously you said there were severe pains.

· She was in severe pains. They had to tie her down while in the hospital. She could not control herself and was yelling in pain. For 8 days she was in pain and was always full of anger. She was angry with everyone. She was angry with the doctor, etc.

9.No Problem With Memory & Bodily Movements
· Let me ask you about your memory. Can you remember things? Any problem with your memory?

· Before she used to forget things. Now she is starting to remember things – her memory is improving. Before the herbs, the pastor came to visit her. The next day she could not remember the visit. Now it is improving.

· Now, can you remember your friends, what happened, etc. Yes!

· I just want to go back to work.

· Go back to school and teach again? Can you do that? Yes!

· Can you write? Can you read? Yes, I can.

· What about your bodily movements?

· I could not lift heavy things because I did not have much strength.

· What about walking, etc. Any problem?

· CT stood up – she showed us how to kick a ball! http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

10. No Other Problems – Take Care

· Since the past 2 months that you were on herbs, did you experience any problems?

· Nothing much, but she always like to sleep.

· Of course, she needs to relax.

· Okay, think back – what could have happened if you were to have that operation.

· Honestly, I did not expect you would recover. I believe God helped you. At the same time, I have also encountered many similar experiences like yours with other patients. For example, Prapti. I did not except her to survive. But she did.

· I am indeed happy. Since the herbs helped you, continue taking them. Take care and God bless you.

Hello brainy?

Hello Brainy, time to do more and talk less?

http://www.news.com.au/technology/story/0,28348,26271082-5014239,00.html Brain surgeon Dr Charlie Teo warns against mobiles, home appliances
By Cheryl Critchley

Herald Sun,October 28, 2009 02:00am


Dr Charlie Teo, from Channel 7's Last Chance Surgery, says it's better to avoid electro-magnetic radiation

Surgeon warns of electromagnetic radiation
Takes 'prevention better than cure' approach
Global study: Mobile cancer link
Mobiles: How much radiation is there?

BRAIN cancer surgeon Charlie Teo has urged people to put mobile phones on loudspeaker, move clock radios to the foot of the bed and wait until microwaves have finished beeping before opening them.

The controversial Sydney specialist told a Melbourne fundraiser that although the jury was still out on mobile phones and other forms of electromagnetic radiation, we should not take risks.
"Even though the jury's not in, just to err on the side of safety I would try and limit the amount of electromagnetic radiation that you're exposed to," he said.

"The American government, for example, recommend that all electrical appliances should be put at the foot of the bed and not the head of the bed.

"Electric blankets should be turned off before you get in bed and definitely wait for those five beeps before you open the microwave.

"With the mobile phone I encourage you to put it on loudspeaker and step outside rather than sticking it up to your brain."

Dr Teo, who tackles tumours other surgeons deem inoperable, said some hair dyes, particularly red, could also cause brain cancer in people with a predisposition.

"The body needs some genetic predisposition. The hair dye, the mobile phone, they're just catalysts but you probably need some sort of genetic aberration to get the cancer in the first place," he said.

Fast cancers

Dr Teo, who stars in Channel Seven's Last Chance Surgery, was in Melbourne last week for the Blackwood8 fundraiser at Croydon golf club.

The group was founded by family and friends of Sally White, a patient of Dr Teo's whose outlook has improved dramatically.

Dr Teo said while breast cancer doubled its cell numbers in weeks or months, the quickest brain cancers took just 16 hours.

No age group was immune and the incidence of brain tumours was growing.

"It's increasing in frequency both in this country and developing countries and it used to be ranked out of the top 10 but it's just joined the top 10 most common cancers," he said.

Recent studies have raised alarm bells about mobile phones.

An unreleased World Health Organisation study reportedly found "a significantly increased risk" of some brain tumours related to use of mobile phones for 10 years or more.

A Suleyman Demirel University study in Turkey also found wearing a mobile phone on your belt may lead to decreased bone density in an area of the pelvis commonly used for bone grafts.
Dr Teo said there had been some advancements in treating tumours, like microwave therapy and putting chemotherapy directly into a tumour. A healthy diet, meditation and positive thought could also be beneficial.

"We believe that they probably boost the immune system," he said.

Dr Teo's tips to reduce brain tumour risks

- Get eight hours sleep a night and eat well to boost your immune system
- Keep electrical appliances like clock radios at the foot of the bed
- Turn electric blankets off before retiring
- Put mobile phones on hands-free
- Wait until the microwave finishes beeping before opening it

I think this is just about the best advise I've heard: in the absence of concrete evidence either way, err on the side of caution. I'd be interested to hear Charlie's view on wireless internet connections, that are now just about everywhere. Are they potentially dangerous, or are they a completeley different type of thing?

Mobile phones, as with any radio wave transmitting device, should be labelled "minimun exposure is prudent".. but they never will; users quote 'convenience' as the #1 reason for using wireless, and that's just pure laziness.

No one has the answers, but the decision is simple. You either follow the thought pattern below: Avoid pesticides (Eat Organic) Don't use microwaves Try meditate Avoid Sodium Laureth Sulfate Avoid food preservatives Do not eat margarine Filter your water very well. and so on... If you believe it, follow it, like I do. If you don't believe it, then keep using microwaves and doing what you do. Cancer may be just a roll of the dice.? Who knows? Not me.

Agree with neurodoc. Charlie i admire your work but be part of the scientific solution, not just the vocal one. I appreciate the connection but no-one is able to categorically prove the connection, nor make the effort to do so. Literature searches don't save lives research does. The beeps mean that the thing has finished. If it was dangerous to open the door there would be locks on them until you hit a "stop button. Hair colouring use a colour and peroxide. The enter the hair-dead tissue by the way- and stay there. Doomsayers have littered the Internet with unfounded pseudoscience. Red dyes is another one. There is more risk from getting diesal on your hand at the servo, yet none of you wear gloves to fill up.

U r right Steve - it is so easy to dismiss advice because there is always a greedy lawyer and ppl crying that they didn't know... Ppl are still trying it with cigarettes! And watching gluttonous eaters and boozers cry that the heart disease crept up on them or their kidneys just failed, no warning. I had a clock radio near my bed and didn't link it to the difficulty in breathing and palpitations I got when trying to sleep... One day I unplugged it while cleaning and forgot to plug it back in... Night one - no palpitations... I left it out. One day out of interest I plugged it back in...you guessed it, the problems came back... If one device can disrupt my heart in such a way, imagine 9 hours a night, 365 days of the year....

He is a neurosurgeon and a very good one too. But he is not a researcher into the cause of brain tumours and he - at least in this article - does not validate his comments with evidence. Technical gadgets are frightening to people who don't understand how they work. And a neurosurgoen like Dr Teo, who enjoys a very popular status certainly can add to such anxiety. Hairdryers create an electromagnetic field which is amongst the strongest if not the strongest of all house hold appliances. However they have been around forever, people grew up with them ( putting them close to their head, just like mobile phones) and think they understand how they work. Therefor they must be much safer than mobile phones or other more modern stuff.

Sorry to break the break the bad news - but we are all going to die! THere is nothing you can do to prevent it! It is more important how you live rather than how you die! Concentrate your thoughts & efforts there.

Comment 14 of 26

The moniker "Controversial specialist" is the most accurate statement in this article. For some rational perspective on risk taking Dr Teo rides a motorcycle. Note also that microwaves travel at the speed of light, so one would have to open the door very fast indeed if the microwaves were still "diffusing". Accepting that Dr Teo may have been quoted out of context, I suggest Dr Teo studies the evidence before he speaks on electromagnetic radiation to lay people, and while he is at it allow himself to become involved in existing academic peer review and clinical governance programs. This will be important for optimal patient outcomes.

If all this is so bad for you why are they not banned. I do not understand as Cigarettes are bad for you ( I agree), Achohol is bad for you( In moderation they say). The government won't have to worry about young ones of today living a long while with all these modern cons. I guess that is why my mum is still alive at 92 because she did not have all these thing s when she was young. Oh and by the way she is still dying her hair blond not red. I do believe it is in the genes. Good luck everyone as I think that is what you need these days and lots of it!!!!!!!!!!!!

The microwave bit is a load of bull. Microwaves are non-ionizing. They won't cause cancer.

I can't seriously believe people are so stupid as to believe there is "residual radiation" in a microwave after it stops. It's electro-magnetic radiation that propagates at (300,000 kms/sec) LIGHT SPEED! It's like saying there is still "residual" light in a room 1-5 seconds after you flick the light-switch!

We have an early 80s microwave that has no '5 beep warning' all it has is a bell when the dial reaches 0 minutes. I never wait for that bell because most of the time I only want to heat something for less than a minute, so I just open the door mid-heating session. Is that bad for me?

for those of you who are dismissing these messages, i hope you don't get brain cancer and need operating on. Charlie Teo is our countries leading neurosurgeon. if i were to have any neurological issue charlie teo would be one person i'd put my money on. he's just making suggestions, not giving you instructions.

Perhaps waiting for the 5 microwave beeps is a way to delay close proximity to components within the microwave that may still be emitting radiation in the initial moments after the heating/cooking process has stopped. Red hair dye might sound stupid, but then again I'm no brain surgeon - this guys is, so I'm more inclined to listen than ingore. Lucky for me I'm a Ranga.

Its not until you've had cancer that you really sit up and take notice of these stories. The problem with defining what causes cancer is that there are so many environmental factors at play, its hard to prove any one of them might have an influence above the rest. If a promient brain surgeon says don't use red hair dye or use your mobile phone too much, its because he wants to see less people get the disease. He's not getting sponsored by anyone to say these things.

Red of Sydney - hair dyes have been implicated in a number of different cancers, particularly bladder and brain, with those who use permanent dyes frequently (10 times a year) at a high risk of developing bladder cancer. There are plenty of research articles to back this up.

The beeps indicate that there is still residual microwave radiation inside. Opening the door before the beeps finish doesn't give enough time for the residual radiation to diffuse.

Red, you might want to ask what actual chemicals are in red hair die before you dismiss the possibility. It's worth reiterating that the Dr is saying some precautionary measures that take little to implement might be useful until the final verdict is in.

Can someone please explain what the five beeps on the microwave means? I assumed that it was simply an audible signal that the timer had finished. Surely when the power turns off i.e. the microwave stops cooking and therefore there is no issue? Can some technical person please answer this question?
