We had to get this
out before the holidays for many reasons, but the main
reason being the American soldiers who can
use some Holiday mail. Please check out the list below:
Soldiers in Iraq.
Our Thanks
I want to thank all the people
who’ve been sending us donations. You really helped pay
the bills this past month. I was in shock at the
generosity of a handful of people, and I just want you
to know how much you have helped make a difference.
For your generosity,
this huge newsletter is our Holiday Gift to all of you.
In This
Newsletter (hey, it's a block buster!)
We've found
some powerful immune boosters that will be better for
you than any flu shot, PERIOD.
We've reviewed many new products
and they are all in this edition.
Many have
asked to see my latest photos, so we're posting them
here this issue.
And we've found a painless way to
support this site. It's a search engine. Our newsletter
gets read by over a quarter million people each year. If
all of our readers use this search engine just a couple
of times, we'll be in the black very quickly.
Simply
go to
www.goodsearch.com and where it says:
you can fill in
International Wellness Directory. Or you can read more
about this here: How to Help us
using GoodSearch. With a quarter million hits to our
newsletter, if every time a person opened our newsletter
went to GoodSearch
and made a search in our name, we'd be out of debt in a
no time.
This newsletter came
out awfully fast, so if you didn't get a chance to read
the most important articles of our last newsletter, here
they are again:
UV Light -
Introduction
UV Light - Versus
Chlorination
UV Light -
Photoluminescence Therapy
New
Product Name
As we
told you in our previous newsletter, we will be selling
a new probiotic product for your drains. The good
bacteria, cleans the gunk off your drains; the only
waste product is water.
We put
out a call for names and Marilyn from the state of
Washington took the prize with: Gobble de Goo.
NOW we
need a graphic artist. We'd love to see the letters of
Gobble de Goo in bright yellow, with the first G
gobbling (much like Pac Man, but he's owned.)
Any
takers? You'll get a bottle of Gobble de Goo ( a year's
supply) the moment we start selling it. Just send me a
note:
Gobble de Goo Artist.
2006 Elections
All the volunteers
here want to thank the American public for getting out
to vote. The results of your actions are truly
historical. More incumbents were sent home because of
this election than any other in our history.
We've taken back our
government, now it is time to take back our country.
And, NO, I am NOT
for impeachment. There is just too much work to get
done. We have to fix the voting system so that every
vote is counted and there are no doubts about the
outcome of any election. There is much to do, and the
Republicans are enormously relieved that they did not
outlaw the filibuster.
We must end
corruption, tip the scales back to the side of the most
important class in our history, the middle class, and
raise the minimum wage.
Oh yes, and stop
spending money we don't have.
Oversight: what a
wonderful concept.
One more thing:
health freedom will always be under attack from both the
right and left. We would like to think that the left
would be for the individual but sadly many on the left
still promote policies that take away individual rights
and support a failing and corrupt medical system. Sadly,
many on the left think that our medicine is science run,
when in fact, it is run by money and our science is the
science of the highest bidder. If you want to understand
how our medical system has become the monolithic
monopoly it is today and how the FDA, AMA, and drug
interests all hopped in bed, read this:
Health Care for
Dummies, or How the Rich Got Richer While the Sick Got
Sicker.
Our Next
Newsletter
Because I
get a lot of letters asking me about my photography and
the programs I use, we are going to review for you a
good number of software programs (for the PC) that I’ve
been testing and reviewing. There are some great
programs out there. After that, since I use a lot of DVD
programs on which I put many slide shows, I’ll review
for you some DVD editing programs.

In Cedar Rapids Iowa, a quite Midwestern town
where all the children have wide smiles and
grandmas still rock on their porches at sundown,
there’s a factory that makes supplements for
livestock.
I’ve heard it said that if we raised our
livestock using the same medicine we use on our
human population, a good steak could run
$250.00.
The animal supplement industry keeps our
livestock (and our recreational horses) healthy
by producing feed additives that keep immune
systems, digestive systems, and cardiovascular
systems healthy and balanced.
Ask anyone at the
Diamond V® Mills in Cedar
Rapids, and they will tell you that there’s no
magic to making supplements; it’s pure science.
They test and retest their products to make sure
that they are the best they can possibly make.
The Diamond V® is a good company to work
for. The pay is decent and all employees get
health benefits. If you have a company that pays health
benefits, then you will eventually be dealing with
insurance adjusters.
It was the insurance adjusters who first noticed
it.
The workers who worked in the factory and who
came in contact with the fermented yeast
products weren’t getting sick, while management
took sick leave at rates that were in line with
the national average.
In fact, while 2004 annual insurance premiums
increased an average of 11.2 percent nationally,
this company's 2004 premiums didn't increase at
all. [Chris Meletis, ND,
http://www.naturodoc.com/library/cancer/epicor.htm]
Something was going on, and since the company
based its practices on scientific investigation,
management commissioned a research group to find
out what was going on.
Long story short, blood tests of those who
worked with the fermented yeast products showed
the following:
-
an increase in
Immunoglobulins (sIgA) that stand as guards
to our “entryways” laying down the first
line of protection, not allowing pathogens
to enter;
-
an increase in CD4 counts,
coordinating T and B cells on a second line
of defense;
-
an increase in NK (Natural Killer) Cell activity.
Interviews showed even more, with workers
boasting of wonderful health and great
attitudes. One person who had been diagnosed
with an eye disorder that would eventually leave
him blind felt that he was saved from the
prognosis by his luck at working for Diamond V®
Mills. You can view a short film about him and
the company and their latest venture into the
human supplement industry at this link:
The Miracle Pill.
The process to create their fermented yeast
product is not patented, but it is a trade
secret that no competitor has yet to copy. An
analysis of the product by investigators came up
with even more startling details.
Squaline was found. Squaline comes mainly from
shark liver but is also found in a handful of
plants. Squaline is a precursor to steroids.
Squaline makes a wonderful skin moisturizer, but
we found at PDR Health: “Animal
work suggests that indications could one day
emerge for squalene in the prevention and
treatment of some cancers, for immune
enhancement and possibly for lowering
cholesterol.” [http://pdrhealth.com/drug_info/nmdrugprofiles/nutsupdrugs/squ_0240.shtml]
Phenolics and phytosterols were also found.
These are both antioxidants; phenolics are the
antioxidant that is found in wine. Phytosterols
are plant sterols, which are suspected to have
some effect in cancer prevention. As we
discovered in the product
Cell Forte with IP-6, plant sterols
modulate the immune response and have been
successful in treating autoimmune conditions
such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. Phytosterols
have also been shown to positively affect
allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, and asthma.
If you drink green tea you are familiar with
Catechins, which were also found in EpiCor.
Catechins belong to the
flavan-3-ol class of flavonoids and have
antioxidant properties. The health benefits of
green tea are attributed to the Catechins,
One final chemical found was
Resveratrol , which
is part of our
Alternative Cancer Therapies. Resveratrol
inhibits the body's production of the COX (cycoloxygenase)
enzyme which stimulates tumor growth and
suppresses the immune system. Resveratrol is
very important in preventing cancer and
supporting the immune system.
The product was next tested for stability and
toxicity. It passed with flying colors. It was
found to be extremely stable at temperatures
above room temp for 22 months. Toxicity studies
on mice showed it to be perfectly safe. Before
human studies were conducted, they did another
study that showed that it does not interfere
with drug metabolism (hence it can be used with
“most” prescriptions).
With all this going for their product, they
created a concentrated pill form for human
studies and, if those successful, to
market. It is called EpiCor.
EpiCor is now considered GRAS, by the FDA, or
Generally Recognized As Safe. The company
created to make and market EpiCor is called Embria Health
Sciences. It’s parent company is still Diamond
V® Mills. They have spent well over a million
dollars on Research & Development and the money
was well spent.
Researchers, according to Chris Meletis, ND,
made some valuable discoveries concerning EpiCor.
For one thing, EpiCor seems to influence
“calcium signaling.”
As we all know, the human body has some
remarkably complex systems. One thing that is
certain in these systems is that they all work
together for balance of the entire being.
Calcium signaling is one very crucial part of
the many inter cellular processes that if
inhibited can result in diseases ranging from
“abnormal cell proliferation,” such as cancer,
and early cell death, such as occurs in
premature aging.
Researchers also learned that EpiCor is an
anti-inflammatory, an
immunomodulator
(which brings up a depressed immune system, or
brings down an over expressive immune system as
in autoimmune diseases), and a regulator of
the lifetime of cells, from their beginning to their
end.
It was during the human studies that they found
they could tell by the blood samples alone who
worked in the factory and who worked in
management, 100% of the time. One research,
according to Chris Meletis, ND, after reviewing
the results said, “I've never seen anything like
these results before. These people seem
virtually immune from contracting almost
anything.” The subjects using EpiCor had higher
levels of glutathione and red blood cells, and
lower C reactive protein (CRP) and Interleukin 6
(IL-6), which meant they had no signs of chronic
inflammation. (See our article
Chronic
Inflammation.)
We told you already that initial
blood tests of the factory workers showed and
increase in immunoglobulin A, but the human
studies discovered that the increase could go as
high as 60%. Not only were CD4s raised, but if
needed, they found CD8s, the suppressor T-Cells
would rise, proving the immunomodulating effects
of EpiCor. As for the NK Cell activity, the
human studies showed a nearly 4 fold increase.
These numbers are unprecedented. No wonder there
has been such hype over EpiCor.
EpiCor is a preventive. If you have a cold, it
won’t end it overnight. But the odds are, if
you’re taking it, you won’t get that cold.
Researchers believe that EpiCor is a more
powerful antioxidant than blueberries, that it
will protect against most known infections,
reduce inflammation, fight off Candida, and
support the growth of probiotics in the
intestinal tract.
At the time of this writing, only a few
published studies exist. Many will be
forthcoming in the near future. And you can bet
we’ll add EpiCor to our paper on
How To Beat the
Cold and Flu Season.

When we receive
complaints, we listen. It seems that some of our readers
who have bought from one of the sites supporting us thru
an affiliate program has not lived up to their promises.
Ironically, I've discovered the same thing, and after a
recent experience with them, followed by two letters
from readers complaining about this same company, we
have dropped them from our web site and sent them the
following letter:
To Whom It May Concern:
Our organization has been an
affiliate of yours for at least eight years. However,
your sales practices are less than ethical and we are
dropping you as of today.
Every time we’ve purchased from
your organization, we’ve had troubles getting our
rebates. Every time.
We’ve received complaints from our
readers. They too can’t get their rebates.
We recently made a purchase from
you of 4 external hard drives for backing up our
computer. They were sold with a rebate. However, it was
not until AFTER the purchase that we found out the
rebate was good for “one per family.” Before purchasing
we read everything on your site about the rebate looking
for a limit and we found none.
This is fraudulent; equivalent to
“bait and switch.” We have documented the entire
experience and it should be passed onto our State
Attorney General’s office, but I’m not in the mood to
jump through hoops.
Additionally, we were notified that
we did not qualify for the rebate because the barcode
that we sent them was the wrong barcode (it belonged to
a different product). The really interesting point here
is that we took ALL 4 BARCODES from ALL 4 DISK DRIVES
and included them. All 4 were incorrect? We returned the
entire purchase.
Your company’s ethics are less than
honorable. We will apologize to our readers for
advertising for you, publish this letter for them to
read, and end our connection to your organization
refusing to purchase from you ever again.
Sincerely,
David Bonello

I have another story for you.
Tom was a fisherman living on the
northern Pacific Ocean in British Columbia, Canada. At
one point in his life, he decided to grow shell fish. He
invested his savings and built himself a shellfish farm
where instead of feeding them the standard shellfish
feed other farms fed theirs, he sunk a pipeline some 80
feet below the water’s surface and invented his own
“extraction” technique to begin growing his own
plankton. The plankton was a specific type of
phytoplankton called Spring Bloom. He built up his farm
to produce enough plankton, 365 days each year, to feed
his shellfish with a surplus left over to recycle it
back into the ocean, which has had the blessed side
effect of rebuilding the reef beneath their farm,
drawing in Sea Otters, Bald Eagles, and new fish and sea
life.
A second unexpected effect of his home
grown phytoplankton was in the size of his shellfish.
They were immense compared to his competition. The local
environment was blooming, animals were repopulating, and
his gigantic shellfish were thriving, what could
possibly go wrong?
How about Mesothelioma?
Tom was told he had a few months to live.
The usual cycle each cancer patient experiences set in
and Tom was filled with anger, fear, depression, denial,
and acceptance.
One day, while contemplating the
remarkable size of his clams, two to three times the
size of his competition, he stuck his fingers into the
plankton and licked them clean. Soon he was eating his
plankton. It had worked wonders for his clams. He said
to himself, “I’m dying anyway so what have I got to
lose?”
Tom was an insulin dependent diabetic.
Was is the key word there. Today he no longer needs
his insulin. Oh, and his cancer seems to have
disappeared.
His doctor’s have performed eleven
biopsies and every one came out cancer clear.
Tom can’t say positively that the
plankton saved his life or that it cured his cancer. His
daughter who had a hypoactive thyroid tried the plankton
and went from a size 12 dress to a size 8 in four
months. She can’t say it was the plankton, but it was
the only change in her habits.
Tom no longer raises shellfish. He now
produces phytoplankton for human consumption. It’s
called UMAC (Unique Marine Algae Concentrate) CORE, and
their web site is: www.umac-core.com.
Phytoplankton is unlike any vitamin,
herb, or supplement, or even a food. Phytoplankton is
complete primitive nutrition. It’s the bottom of the
food chain. It requires no co-factors, because it is
complete and balanced. Most vitamins and minerals
require cofactors to work their best.
Elements and electrolytes in marine
phytoplankton are almost tailor-made for the human body.
The amniotic fluid in which every one of us developed
resembles sea water. Much about the human body is like
the sea and nourishment from the sea consisting of
essential amino acids, more omega 3's than fish oil,
vitamin A, iodine, selenium, and a host of vitamins and
minerals in their most absorbable and usable form helps
to repair our bodies, re-balance our systems, and
re-energize everything from the cellular level on up.

I and a few close friends first tried the
product and then passed samples onto people with low
energy levels. One person noticed a rapid improvement in
energy. He loved everything about the product. Another
person, having just miraculously survived an enormous
brain hemorrhage and who was still recovering, felt
nothing, however, it was a long shot here, and we didn’t
really expect stupendous results. She did, however, tell
us that her appetite and outlook improved over the time
she used it. Another person lost two pounds in the month
she was on it and she wasn’t dieting.
Let your food be your medicine, is our
guide line here at the International Wellness Directory.
And this might just be the perfect food. We are pretty
sure that any illness from chronic to acute can benefit
from this perfect food.
Germanium
This is from our
Alternative Cancer Therapies.

Our thanks to Gene Excoffon, a reader from Canada. Our
section on Germanium was way overdue for a rewrite. I'd
gathered some info on it, but what George sent me was
just too good not to check out. We need more readers
like Gene to help us out. Thanks, Gene!
Germanium therapy is one of the oxygen therapies in that
this supplement supposedly fights cancer by making the body's tissues hold
more oxygen and boost the immune system through increased macrophage
activity with Germanium, which also seems to stimulate interferon
production, and is effective against tumors. [Journal of Interferon
Research, 1984; 4]
Then reports came out of Japan warning us that germanium therapy damages
the kidneys and caused 6 deaths.
After a little more research, we found that in Japan, they use Germanium
Dioxide, an inorganic metal oxide that is, as discovered, very damaging to
kidneys. As one reader wrote me, the difference between inorganic germanium
dioxide and organic germanium sesquioxide is like the difference between
cobalt and cobalamine in vitamin B-12.
For our purposes, we are now talking about Organic Germanium Sesquioxide
which is non toxic in humans and is sold over the counter (until further
notice).
For the best information available, we suggest you read the book
Miracle Cure - Organic Germanium by Dr Asai, PhD. It is out of print but
is listed online at this link.
Although germanium would be naturally categorized as an oxygen therapy,
germanium also stimulates the immune system (is an immunomodulator),
protects against radiation and heavy metal poisoning, lowers high blood
pressure, relieves pain, and is a powerful antioxidant.
In her online book,
Germanium - The health and life enhancer, Sandra Goodman PhD outlines
the following five ways in which germanium affects the immune system:
- Organic Germanium stimulates the production of immune (gamma)
interferon. (From the patent application: "...viral infection inhibitory
activity was detected in the serum of the mice 25 hours after Ge
administration.)
- Organic Germanium activates resting macrophages and converts them to
cytotoxic (killer) macrophages.
- Organic Germanium stimulates Natural Killer (NK) Cell activity.
- Organic Germanium stimulates the production of T suppressor cells.
- Organic Germanium augments decreased immunity and restores impaired
immunoresponse in aged mice.
Additionally recent studies on Germanium show that they possess the power
to take over the hydrogen ion from cancer cells. Losing hydrogen ions
can cause depression and even death to cancer cells.
Dr Asai's work, from his book and found in the patent application (Patent
# 4279892) showed that germanium definitely showed anti-tumor
properties. There have been a few clinical studies using germanium (listed
in
Dr Goodman's book) but most of the cancer studies have been done on
animals. In humans, there have been some good anecdotal reports by Dr Asai,
and others who've shown interest in this substance, but there have been no
really significant cancer studies using germanium.
The one thing all clinical studies on humans have shown is that germanium
improved the quality of life of the patients. Their pain was down and their
attitudes were up. And in most studies, metastases were inhibited.
Germanium enriches our body's oxygen supply. This is alkalizing.
Additionally it acts as an antioxidant, and this to is alkalizing.
For cancer patients, doses of 500mgs to 1 gram daily are often
recommended.
However, the most fascinating feature of germanium is its shape. Organic
germanium is a crystal, and crystals contain subtle energies.
Organic Germanium in its solid form is a
crystal, and, of course, one of the most fundamental properties of
Germanium is its semi-conductor nature, its ability to donate and
receive electrons easily. Many of organic Germanium's healing properties
may be due to its intrinsic electronic qualities. [
Germanium - The health and life enhancer, Chapter 14]
We’ve already
reviewed Ron Salley’s creams, but of all our favorite
products we’ve discovered here, these have yet to take
off. Ron Salley should be a multimillionaire by now.
However, Ron recently reported back to us that the
number of sales created from our write-ups are hardly
significant.
Hardly significant?
I must be his best customer.
Because we believe
so much in these creams, because we’ve seen what they ca n
do, and because the results are just short of
miraculous, we’re going to tell you even more about
them.
Every car, boat,
plane, home, and first aid kit should have a bottle of
Healon PF in it. This is a simple fact. I never go
anywhere without a bottle in my car.
In 1977 Ron Salley
produced his first moisturizer. His aim was to create a
perfectly natural, perfectly harmless, safe, and
effective moisturizer. He refused to use any
petrochemicals, emulsifying additives, or chemicals that
no one can pronounce. In other words, everything he uses
is edible (though you will probably not like the
taste). If it shouldn’t go in your body, it
shouldn’t go on your body.
Shortly after Ron
began marketing his moisturizer, he started getting
calls telling him how scars, sores, etc were vanishing.
A surprising side effect of his moisturizer was that it
had healing properties. This excited Ron and he began a
quest to enhance his line with more products for
healing.
Today he is
constantly re-formulating his creams. I know this
because some of the first creams/lotions we initially
received from Ron no longer exist.
Ron began his
company with research. He studied herbalism and found
those herbs he wanted to use, but he felt that most
processing methods didn’t result in something he wanted.
An alcohol extract still had alcohol in it and he did
not want to add that much alcohol to his products
because it is very drying, though he does add a little
alcohol to his ASC specifically for the drying
properties.
Most distillation
procedures heated the product so high that they damage
the phytochemicals in the original herb. Ron was told
there was no way to do what he wanted to do; pull the
good stuff out without modifying or damaging the
phytochemicals.
In the early
nineties, after years of testing, Ron found success.
You will see Tea
Tree Oil (Melaleuca) listed as an ingredient in one of
Ron’s creams, but it is not the same Tea Tree Oil you
can buy anywhere on the market. Commercial Tea Tree Oil
isn't anywhere close to Ron’s Tea Tree Oil. Ron's Tea
Tree Oil is distilled in a very low temperature, a very
slow process, according to Ron’s specific instructions.
All of Ron’s
ingredients are prepared, distilled, or processed using
Ron’s own methods, which are slower and costlier than
standard methods.
Some have written to
me asking why Miracle Skin products are so expensive.
This is why:
All of the herbs and
oils used in Ron’s products are the highest grade, most
expensive; all the phytochemicals have been pulled from
the original herbs in a process designed specifically by
Ron according to his standards and his research.
You get what you pay
for, and this is why Ron’s creams are just short of
miraculous.
Healon PF is
antibacterial and antiviral. Ron cannot say this. He
hasn’t got the billions of dollars required to get FDA
approval to say this. However, we have proof; enough
proof for ourselves. (Ron keeps bottles of his products
on shelves for years and tests then later to discover if
they’ve gone bad or have degenerated in any way. His
oldest bottle, as of last year’s testing, was seven
years old. It was bacteria free and had not degraded in
any way.)
We have watched them
work on bacterial infections, viral infections, and
fungal infections.
Healon PF
I think it is best
that we show you the before and after pictures of wounds
healed with Healon PF. They are just short of amazing.
Doctors using it have not only reported back to Ron on
some of the miraculous healings they’ve witnessed, many
have started selling it to their clients under their own
personal labels.
Here is a letter
from one physician (with before and after pictures
included):
I hope
you have been impressed with the pictures of Richard M
that I sent. Richard is a yard worker who had modified a
weed eater tool; when he started it, it literally "blew
up" in his face. This occurred on May 30, 2005. He cam
to my office on June 1, 2005 (see
picture #1
[note: we've put both pictures, the before and after,
together]) and sought treatment for the burns to his
face. He refused referral to a plastic surgeon for
treatment and stated that he would only allow me to
treat him. I was grateful for his confidence but, at the
same time, I was fully aware of the seriousness of his
injury. An injury to the nose, with its underlying
cartiliginous structures, can, sometimes, provide a poor
prognosis; cartilage does not heal well and, in fact, he
was facing the possibility of a loss of a body part.
I chose
to treat him with the product (Healon PF) by having him
apply it twice daily and return to my office in two
weeks for follow-up. I informed him that he could return
at any time if necessary. He returned to my office three
weeks later (the
"after" photos) and I was absolutely astounded! He
has had no adverse effects from the product and, as you
can see, in his eyes, he is quite happy. I spoke with
him today and he is overjoyed that the product was
available to him. I feel blessed to have the product for
my patients. I will continue to use the product and will
send other photos of "before and after."
I look
forward to working with you in the future and I will
make every attempt to convince my peers to give the
product a trial in their practices.
Sincerely,

Next we have a case
of diabetic sores. Normally, most physicians would
amputate at this state. Ron has received many
testimonials from people who thought they were about to
lose their toes or feet, only to have them miraculously
healed in just under a month. On the right (click to
see the full version) you will see before and after
shots of toes that would have routinely been amputated,
but after just two weeks are on their way to healing
perfectly.
This
next set of four shots shows how a wound healed up in
just nine days using an early form of Healon. Click on
the thumb nail to see the the full sized picture.
This
next picture is amazing. A young lady had surgery
leaving a terrible scar on her face on the hair line. As
you can see, (click on the thumbnail to see the full
size) the scar has practically vanished after just 38
days, and hair is growing on the scar.
Plantar Warts
Look up Plantar Wart
on the web and you will see that it is caused by the
human papilloma virus (HPV). The HPV virus has been
connected to cervical cancer and venereal warts. Though
there is now a vaccine for the HPV, apparently it
doesn’t affect the brand that caused Plantar Warts.
If you have a
Plantar Wart, you can give it away in the shower or even
to people who wear your shoes. It’s a virus. It is
transmitted thru contact.
Ron had someone use
his Healon PF on a Plantar Wart. In less than two weeks,
she reported back to Ron that the wart had gone away.
Ron asked me to try this and sure enough, I'd had a
friend who has suffered from Plantar Warts on her feet
since her teens. For over four decades, she’s had these
things on both feet.
I sent her a bottle
and told her it’s free as long as she took some before
and after pictures. Now we could publish the before and
after pictures to show how the wart on one foot
disappeared in under two weeks. The pictures show this,
but it’s not the whole story, and I’d be guilty of the
sin of omission if I just left it at that.
Yes, Healon PF has
proven itself to be antibacterial, antifungal, and
antiviral, but viruses are funny things. When I was in
Pre-Med I learned that viruses often change when they
are attacked; they change and they adapt. This is what
has happened to my friend. The wart ran to a different
part of her foot. She applied the cream there and it ran
to the top of her foot. Healon PF is chasing the virus
all around her foot. Whenever I contact her, the wart
has moved somewhere else. Neither Ron nor I have ever
heard of this, but we have now, and my friend updates me
monthly on where the plantar wart has moved to. However,
the really good news is that on one foot, the wart is
completely gone.
I’ve personally seen
Healon PF work on herpes. Herpes is a virus. I’ve seen
it clear up a herpes if used at first sign, and if you
don’t catch it at the first sign but still apply Healon
PF, the wound heals faster than if just left to itself.
Diabetic Wounds
We announced that we
had some free bottles for anyone with diabetic sores.
They were snatched up immediately and everyone used them
with good results. Did anyone order another bottle?
Nope. Every person who got the Healon PF reported back
that their diabetic sores healed up in under a month,
most of the time in just two weeks.
Nothing else we have
ever heard of can do this. Stubborn sores, wounds, black
and blue marks are just not a match for Healon PF.
When your sores go
away, they go away. It seems that the people who used the
bottles didn’t think they needed more (just in case), or
for their first aid kits. Once again I was in shock to
learn that no one who had used it successfully had
ordered another bottle.
Ron feels that one
reason he's got no orders is that you use so little that
there is still a lot left in the bottle.
There is nothing on
the market that heals diabetic wounds better than Healon
PF. Wounds that just won’t go away are a breeze for this
stuff and just short of miraculous.
Sugar Foot
There is no cream on
the planet like Sugar Foot. I have given samples to
people who put it on deep, painful cracks in their feet,
and overnight, the pain is gone.
Then, do these
people order it? Nope. Why order it when the pain is
gone?
Sugar
Foot is the best moisturizing and healing cream I’ve
ever seen. It has been used successfully on heat rash
(arm pit heat rash), diaper rash, cracked and dried skin
of nurses who wash their hand numerous times in the dead
of our dry winters, cracked and dried nipples of nursing
mothers, jock itch, athletes foot, and of course dried
skin on your feet with deep, painful cracks. The healing
begins overnight on deep cracks. The pain is gone by
morning. This is just a simple fact. All you have to do
is try it. And yes, it’s very expensive because it’s
very good. When people have given up; they’re tired of
trying everything, sure enough, this stuff works.
The difference
between Sugar Foot and Healon PF as far as healing
properties go, Healon PF you must SHAKE THOROUGHLY, and
it has a sting to it, especially if you put it on tender
skin. In the summer I will sometimes get a bit of jock
itch because I love to run and play tennis for hours on
end and then go somewhere instead of hitting the
showers. I have used Healon PF for the fungal infection,
and it burns. Sugar Foot does not burn but is a
moisturizer. Sugar Foot is not quite as healing as
Healon PF, but it still is perfect for those uses we’ve
outlined. Healon PF is a powerful healing agent, but not
a moisturizer.
Healon PF is great
for surgical scars, especially if they are fresh. People
report that their scars have practically vanished, as
you saw above in the before and after pictures.
Why Are We
Focusing on Miracle Skin Products Again?
Good companies go
out of business when people do not support them. You can
buy some antibiotic cream for 1/20th
the cost of Healon PF. But it can’t do 1/1000th
the job of Healon PF. You get what you pay for.
I want all my
readers who are thinking of supporting us (the
International Wellness Directory) monetarily in the near
future to, INSTEAD, support Ron Salley this one
time. For Christmas this year, put a bottle of Healon PF
in your car, in your boat, in your first aid kit, in
your bathroom cabinet. Give one to a friend for relative
for Christmas (and give them a link to Simply the Best:
www.mnwp.org). I keep a bottle in my Deer Stand,
because when I'm cleaning a deer, I always manage to
slice myself up a bit too (those knives are so darn
sharp!)
ASC, Acne
Formula, and Psoriasis Formula
The Psoriasis
Formula is the only one from Ron that we’ve not seen
work yet. We gave away four bottles and all reported a
slight improvement, but that was it. Psoriasis is a
tough condition to reverse, but research into vitamin D
and other things are showing some promise.
Ron’s Acne Formula
has its followers. We’ve not heard from anyone who has
used it who has not had success. We have thoroughly
tested it and so far, teenage acne is a breeze, stubborn
acne clears up before you've used half a bottle, and
adults on antibiotics for their acne have stopped using
their antibiotics, thank God. Nothing on the market
compares.
The ASC, Advanced
Skin Care, is, in my opinion, the most amazing lotion
ever invented. We keep passing it onto people and
everyone is amazed. It has worked on Solar Keratosis and
non malignant skin cancers. It’s for any problem spot
that you want gone.
My own personal
experience has been weird. Even after it’s done working,
white heads show up and I have to use it again. Many
have asked me if perhaps the ASC is causing the
whiteheads, that perhaps I’m allergic or sensitive to
it. However, I’ve put the cream elsewhere, on different
types of skin, and nothing. The spot dries up and peels
off. No acne, no whiteheads.
But on my cheek,
where my physician said I had a solar keratosis, it has
removed the spot, and keeps pulling “crud” out of my
cheek. I'm going to keep using it till whatever is
coming out stays out for good.
At this writing, I
have three new people trying the lotion and I will
report back to you.
Ron does not want to
sell his ASC. It has to be made up special and should
sell for $150.00 per fifteen milliliter bottle. He
refuses to let
Simply the Best advertise it or mention it. Why?
Because he made it specifically for those "things" it is helping to clear
up, but can’t mention this in his advertising or on the
bottle. Ron just doesn’t want to go to prison for
practicing medicine without a license or promising
anyone a non malignant skin cancer cure.
We, however, can
publish testimonials and we can tell you what we’ve seen
it do. However, we can’t sell it if we do so, and in
keeping with our policy, we will not sell a
wellness or health product we talk about because that
would be a conflict of interest. There are far too many
web sites selling pure crap after a song and dance
telling you how great their crap is.
However, if you want
a bottle of ASC, with no guarantees, no promises, and
your money back you can
write to me. I will contact Ron for a bottle, I will
have Simply the Best bill you for the product ($55.00
including shipping), and I will personally put it in the
mail to you. You will get an email of consisting of
instructions for use, your 30 day money back guarantee,
and the ingredients. Beyond that, no one will discuss
your skin problem. You can discuss that with your
physician.
Keep Good
Companies Alive
Again, good
companies are hard to find. There are creams for
everything out there and most contain garbage you don’t
want on your face. If you wouldn’t eat it, you shouldn’t
put it on your skin.
Please keep Ron’s
work alive and prospering. Every home can use Healon PF,
and if dry skin is a problem in the winter time, you
definitely need Sugar Foot. Please go to Simply the Best
and make your Christmas, someone else’s Christmas, and
Ron Salley’s Christmas very special this year. Give the
gift of healing.
And I must tell you
that I say this for selfish reasons. I don’t want to see
Ron’s creams and lotions disappear because I’m one of
his best customers.
Ron
Salley Miracle Skin Creams & Lotions @ Simply the Best
Oh, and he also has a wrinkle cream, but wouldn't you
know it; people are actually ordering this one.
NOTE: In keeping with our policy of full
disclosure, the International Wellness Directory is not
an affiliate of Ron Salley's company and does not
receive kickbacks. However, I, your author, do get lots
of free samples from Ron and when I order, he charges me
half price. Had I not written this review, I would still
be treated the same by Ron. This review was written to
support Ron's work, keep a good company in business, and
to help people heal using Ron's products.
And as I stated, I have selfish reasons.
I don't want to run out of Ron's products.
Before We Go
AOL has just listed some "special"
products for that special Christmas. One product was a
very expensive ($110.00/oz) moisturizing lotion called
Crème de La Mer.
The ingredients are not listed at their web site. This
is most likely not an oversight.
Crème de La Mer's ingredients: seaweed
(algae) extract, mineral oil\paraffinum, liquidum\huile
minerale, petrolatum, glycerin, isohexadecane, citrus
aurantifolia (lime) extract, microcrystalline wax \cera
microcristallina\cire microcristalline, lanolin alcohol,
sesamum indicum (sesame) seed oil, eucalyptus globulus (ecalyptus)
leaf oil, magnesium sulfate, sesamum indicum (sesame)
seed, medicago sativa (alfalfa) seed powder, helianthus
annuus (sunflower) seedcake, prunus amygdalus dulcis
(sweet almond) seed meal, sodium gluconate, potassium
gluconate, copper gluconate, calcium gluconate,
magnesium gluconate, zinc gluconate, paraffin,
tocopheryl succinate, niacin, beta-carotene, decyl
oleate, aluminum distearate, octyldodecanol, citric
acid, cyanocobalamin, magnesium stearate, panthenol,
limonene, geraniol, linalool, hydroxycitronellal,
citronellol, benzyl salicylate, citral,
methylchloroisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone,
alcohol denat., fragrance (parfum)
You will notice that there are some very
good things in this moisturizer. However, there are some
ingredients "knowing consumers" will NOT want on their
skin. One of them is one of
the main ingredients: mineral oil.
From
Herbal Luxuries we discovered this about mineral oil:
The problem is that mineral oil is foreign to the
human body and has many harmful effects, especially in
infants. Some of the effects of mineral oil may be a
little surprising. Mineral oil acts as a thin layer on
the skin.
It is difficult to absorb and clogs the pores,
which slows the skin’s ability to eliminate toxins.
Remember, the skin is the body’s largest organ and plays
an important role in maintaining overall health!
Once the oil is absorbed, it is broken down by
the liver and passes through the intestinal tract, it
will absorb all of the fat-soluble vitamins found there.
It is essentially stealing important vitamins from the
body, which the body will not be able to replace. This
can eventually lead to nutritional deficiencies.
Studies have also shown forms of pneumonia caused
by mineral oil decreasing lung unction, known as lipoid
pneumonia. Because of these dangers, the medical
community has condemned the use of mineral oil taken
orally or as an ingredient in medications.
[http://www.herballuxuries.com/mineral-oil.htm]
Another
product, at the top of the list so you know that this is
a main ingredient, is Petrolatum, the same stuff we know
as Vaseline Petroleum Jelly.
What’s so bad
about Vaseline Petroleum Jelly? For one thing, it’s been
banned in the EU and seems to be a carcinogen. You can
read more here:
Health Report
I did some
more searches on some of the other chemicals, those that
you can’t pronounce.
Isohexadecane;
take a search on
Toxnet and you’ll find case after case of dermatitis
or skin inflammation. It is considered an allergen.
Methylisothiazolinone; a powerful biocide (kills life)
and preservative. Yes, this is found in a small amount,
but if you found strychnine on the label of your face
cream, would you care how much was in it?
At Wikipedia
we found: “Some studies have shown MIT to be allergenic
and cytotoxic, and this has led to some concern over its
use. In early December, 2004, a news broadcast from WNYT
in Albany, NY reported that methylisothiazolinone had
been linked to nerve cell death in scientific studies.
In 2002, there was an in vitro study of the
neurotoxicity of MIT in the department of Neurobiology
at the University of Pittsburgh.”
Methylchloroisothiazolinone; a preservative with
antibacterial and antifungal effects found in a great
number of cosmetics, but still, it’s a potent allergen
and has been attacked at a carcinogen.
Benzyl
Salicylate is salicycylic acid, a preservative as is
hydroxycitronella.
If you ask
me, there’s no question whatsoever about whose products
are better, Ron Salley’s or La Mer (The Sea).
Just the
other day, I was playing with a young fellow whose
fingers were cut up from falling outside on gravel. His
mom washed his hands while he sat in his highchair, and
when she went to get him his “num-num,” he began to cry,
holding his hand in the air. We got out some Sugar Foot
and put it on his sore fingers. Within 20 seconds, he
stopped crying and dug into his “num-num.”
No one, not
one company on the planet, has creams, at any price,
better than Ron Salley’s Miracle Skin. No one.

We
had first heard about Heartland Products when
researching safe soaps. A reader had sent us a gallon of
their “botanical” soap.
On
the soap, they list their ingredients as: pure water,
amino acids, minerals, and other ingredients derived
from leafy green, edible and seed-bearing plants. We
loved the soap.
We
figured this must be the natural stuff if this is where
they’re getting their materials.
So,
we contacted the company asking if they’d like a review
of their products. We got back one letter asking us: Who
