SUPPRESSED CURES: What you're not supposed to know about DMSO and the permanent elimination of cancer tumors
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Welcome to the Health Ranger Report with Mike Adams, the Health Ranger!
So, hidden cures.
Welcome to this special segment.
I'm Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
And I'd like to talk to you about some of the things I've learned over the years about hidden cures and hidden treatments that are absolutely, you're not allowed to know about these things.
And I had previously mentioned in a previous segment about chlorine dioxide, which is...
It's one of the most extraordinary natural medicines in the world.
And there's a website on it, and I think it is, let me just check it out, theuniversalantidote.com.
Yeah, there it is, theuniversalantidote.com.
It's the science and story of chlorine dioxide.
You can download the free books, and you can watch the videos and take the course, and it's got all the research.
It's amazing.
Obviously, learn about chlorine dioxide, but that's not what this segment is about.
This is about something else.
This is about special dyes.
Now, years ago, when I toured the spirulina farm in Hawaii, on the Big Island, and the company there was really great.
They gave me the full tour.
I got to see the ponds and the harvesting and the machines.
And they also took me to their science lab.
And I don't know if you know this about spirulina, but spirulina contains some extraordinary pigments.
Now, the most extraordinary pigment found in spirulina, which, as you know, has a very dark green, almost blue-green color.
The extraordinary pigment that does that is called phycocyanin.
And, of course, cyanin refers to the color cyan, which is a kind of blue hue.
And phycocyanin, I don't know if just the phyco means plant-derived, probably.
But phycocyanin is this bluish pigment that spirulina creates.
And this pigment can be extracted from spirulina.
And this pigment, all by itself, is extremely valuable.
If you have one liter of this pigment in solution, you can sell it for something like $30,000.
You know, in its pure form.
Because it's used as medical imaging pigments in various procedures.
I forgot the exact details, but this pigment fluoresces under certain conditions.
So it shows up in contrast imaging, different kinds of medical imaging.
So this is a dye that is injected into patients in order to, you know...
Pursue the medical imaging.
Well, researchers in Japan discovered something really extraordinary about phycocyanin.
What Japanese researchers were able to do was to use microinjections of phycocyanins extracted from spirulina and they would inject them into the cancer tumors in patients' organs such as the liver.
So if they had Liver cancer, liver tumors.
Or I think they were also treating pancreatic cancer, but I'd have to check the source on that.
When they did this, it destroyed the tumors.
The phycocyanins from spirulina, in other words, induced cell toxicity or apoptosis cell death in the cancer cells.
But they were very specific to the cancer cells.
This pigment did not harm healthy cells.
And then this was also done in breast cancer studies in mice as well.
This was in the year 2013, and that was a study in China.
But if you look at how this dye works, and yes, this dye is found in spirulina.
I mean, this pigment is part of spirulina.
It has anti-angiogenesis factors, so it halts the formation of blood supply to the cancer tumors.
It induces cell death of the cancer tumors, and it modulates the pathways known as BACs slash BCL-2.
So if you're a biology expert, you'll know all the details about that.
I don't know all the details about it, but I know that spirulina is also anti-inflammatory, and it has antioxidant effects, and it also helps modulate the immune system to help the body fight cancer better.
They know that in Japan, this destroys tumors.
They know that in China, it also destroys tumors.
The methods of delivering spirulina to the cancer tumors, in one case in Japan, it was through endoscopic microinjections to target the liver and the pancreas.
But you can also use nanoparticle carriers.
And it turns out that some metals, like silver nanoparticles, are very good at that, but there's a better one, which is part of rosamarinic acid that I've talked about in previous podcasts,
that is also able to bind with many things, such as phycocyanins, and then to help deliver that to cancer tumors throughout the body.
Of course, if you eat spirulina, then there's a systemic distribution of phycocyanins, but that may not have the concentration necessary to destroy a cancer tumor compared to localized injection,
right? So you want to deliver the pigment directly to the cancer tumor.
Now, a lot of people have tumors that are very close to the surface of the skin.
Some people have cancer tumors on the skin, but breast cancer in particular is often very near the surface of the breast skin.
So you might have the question, well, is there a way to topically deliver the pigments of phycocyanins into the tissues?
And are there other things that can be used topically that are very effective at treating cancer?
Enter the miracle substance known as DMSO.
So DMSO, and I did not believe this about DMSO for many, many years, but DMSO penetrates the skin and it goes deep into the tissues.
It's really extraordinary.
And now I know this to be absolutely true, but I was skeptical of this when I first heard it.
But DMSO, which is derived from trees, actually, I think it's a solvent that is derived from specific trees.
DMSO has been extensively studied and used to treat all kinds of things.
And here I want to give credit to MidwesternDoctor.com.
The author is a Midwestern doctor.
And this author documents some really extraordinary things, and I saw an article of his recently about DMSO and its use with another dye called hematozylin, and that's what reminded me of phycocyanins in spirulina,
because what's become apparent here is that DMSO is a carrier that Carries other substance deep into your skin and your tissues and can penetrate and deliver these substances to any tissue that's within a certain depth.
I don't know exactly what that depth is, but it's a lot.
It's probably inches.
It's probably several centimeters.
So it could even be a couple of inches.
It's at least an inch, maybe more.
I don't know the full depth of it.
But just DMSO by itself has over a thousand studies backing it.
And here I'm quoting from the MidwesternDoctor.com article.
It's been shown to treat strokes, paralysis, neurological disorders, circulatory disorders, including varicose veins and hemorrhoids.
It treats tissue injuries, sprains, concussions, burns, and surgical incisions, and spinal cord injuries.
It treats chronic pain, including arthritis and bursitis and disc pain in the vertebra.
It's known to treat autoimmune disorders, even certain head conditions like tinnitus, dental problems, sinusitis.
It treats a wide range of internal organ diseases such as pancreatitis, infertility, liver cirrhosis, and endometriosis.
And then it also treats a wide range of skin conditions like burns and varicose veins.
I mentioned that.
Acne, hair loss, ulcers, skin cancer, and autoimmune dermatologic diseases.
It also treats bacterial infections, herpes, and shingles.
Very interesting.
But where DMSO and all of those things I just mentioned, that's with DMSO by itself.
And by the way, I don't sell DMSO.
So I'm not plugging a specific product.
If you want to get some, you need to find your own sources for it.
I don't have a source for it.
But it's best known for treating various cancers.
And so from this article, some of the mechanisms is that it slows the growth of cancers.
It can cause cancer cells to transform back into normal cells.
It assists the immune system in targeting and eliminating cancers that were reluctant to be removed.
It treats complications of cancer, including cancer pain.
It's very helpful for multiple myeloma.
DMSO also helps protect tissue from radiation and chemotherapy injury.
And it can also potentiate many cancer therapies.
Because remember, DMSO is a carrier, a solvent, or you could call it a penetrant, that penetrates your cells and tissues with whatever it's carrying.
Which is why, in some cases, if someone is undergoing systemic chemotherapy, which I generally do not recommend, But if someone's doing that and then they use DMSO on the surface of their skin to help penetrate, let's say,
a breast cancer tumor, well, the chemotherapy circulating in their blood may, with the help of DMSO, it may penetrate more in the cancer tumor.
So in other words, DMSO can potentiate chemotherapy, which, of course, can also make chemotherapy more toxic.
To healthy cells.
So be very careful with this.
And understand that everything I'm telling you here today, this is clearly under the category of experimental medicine.
But it turns out that our new AI engine, which again is about to be released, at brighteon.ai, you'll have access to it for free very soon.
It is well-versed on DMSO.
You can ask it all kinds of questions about DMSO and also cancer treatments.
In fact, Some of what I was talking about earlier was from Enoch, the phycocyanins and the anti-cancer mechanisms and how that works.
That wasn't all just from my memory.
I was also, I pulled up some notes from Enoch.
So it's a great research engine, but I'm not done with this story.
There's more to this.
So here's what's extraordinary about this.
So again, DMSO by itself does all these amazing things.
But when you combine it with specifically pigments or dyes, that's when things get very, very interesting.
Remember how I said in Japan they did microinjections of phycocyanin molecules from spirulina and they found that it destroyed tumors.
Well, DMSO combined with phycocyanins stands as a very promising But experimental treatment for cancer tumors.
Now, this isn't something, this is not a combination that, to my knowledge, has been studied.
But what has been studied is DMSO plus hematoxilin.
So hematoxilin, let me spell that for you.
It's spelled H-E-M-A-T-O-X-Y-L-I-N.
So it's kind of like...
Xylitol, how that's spelled with an X?
Well, hemato xylan.
So hemato means of the blood.
And xylan is referring to this specific structure of this dye.
Now, this dye is obtained from the logwood tree.
And then the dye itself is water-soluble.
So when the tree is kind of ground up and then boiled in water, Then you get this dye that you can then dry into a powder.
And that powder is called hematozylin.
And this was discovered in the 16th century.
And it's a very potent dye for the textile industry.
Interesting, right?
Did you know that, you know, a lot of natural substances have been used as dyes of textiles over the years?
I mean, over the centuries by Native Americans and, you know.
Europeans from centuries ago, etc.
And it turns out that a lot of these natural dyes are really powerful.
Medicine also.
These have very special structures.
So these dyes began to be used in the 19th century in pathology as slide stains to be able to visualize tissues.
So, you know, I have a microscope and People who are familiar with microscopy or tissue examination, they know that if you want to have high contrast, then you can stain the slides with certain dyes.
And by the way, one of those dyes is just iodine.
You can stain with iodine.
It stains quite well.
And then you typically, you know, you would stain a specimen and you might wash it with IPA, isopropyl alcohol.
Or water, or a 50-50 mixture of IPA and water, or if you need something a little stronger, you might wash it with methanol.
But the dyes tend to penetrate certain structures of the tissues and the cells, often like the cell membrane, for example, or other specific structures, depending on the dye.
And then that provides the contrast where you can then turn on the microscope and you can see what you want to see.
Now, you've got the contrast, you've got the outlines, whatever.
So this stain, hematozylin, has this kind of purplish hue, kind of blue-purplish hue.
And then it turns out that along the way, one researcher named Eli Jordan Tucker Jr.
Yeah, his last name is Tucker.
He was an orthopedic surgeon in Texas, and he was trying to image...
Tumors from animals, like cows, because he was looking for cancer treatments for these animals.
And he was using the hematozylin pigment as a stain, because that's what it's commonly known for.
Well, it turns out that hematozylin is highly soluble in DMSO.
And so he found that he could mix this pigment with DMSO, and then he could stain slides with very high contrast.
Making it very easy to see under the microscope.
And that's when he discovered two things.
He discovered that DMSO plus hematozylin, it did not stain normal cells, but it stained the cancer tumor cells.
And very interestingly, even under the microscope, even though these cells were no longer part of a living system, this combination of DMSO plus hematozylin, It began to degrade or to kill off the neoplasm of these cancer cells or what is called central necrosis or the dying off or
the deterioration of the cancer cells even under the microscope.
So experimenting on animals, he found that he could administer through IV a combination of DMSO and this This pigment, this dye, and he found that even in terminal cancer cases with very large tumors,
he was able to kill off the tumor and save the animal.
And he found that the hematozylin by itself had no effect on cancer cells, and the DMSO had some effect, but nowhere near the effect of the combination.
So this combination that he came up with is known as D-Hematosilin, which is what this author refers to here from MidwesternDoctor.com.
D-Hematosilin.
And the D just stands for DMSO.
So this combination is known to be very potent in terms of its anti-cancer properties, not only in animals, but...
Well, some people have done this research in humans.
In one case covered in this story, there was a dog that was just riddled with cancer tumors.
And Dr. Tucker administered an IV of D-hematosilin to the dog, who was practically choking to death from tumors in his throat, by the way.
He had large tumors all over the body.
Within two weeks of the IV, All the tumors were gone.
The cancer tumors had completely regressed.
All the masses of the cancer tumors were gone, and the dog was completely cured.
And with a further analysis, after the death of the dog and the subsequent autopsy, and the dog did not die from cancer, by the way, he found there was no There were no cancer cells in the entire body of the dog.
The cancer had been completely eliminated.
Now, again, I want to remind you that this is in the category of experimental medicine, and I'm not telling you to go drink DMSO.
That would not be wise.
And I'm not telling you to inject yourself with this.
I'm getting to the potential topical uses of this, but...
Again, this qualifies as experimental medicine.
I'm giving you a lesson in history of hidden cures.
So, of course, Dr. Tucker, having this success with animals, he began to administer it to really late-stage cancer patients who were on death's door.
And the first woman that he treated was actually in a coma and was about to die from fibrosarcoma, and there was no surgery that was possible.
So Tucker gave her this IV infusion over several weeks, and then the tumor receded, and then she was able to have surgery to remove the tumor, and then she reportedly had a full recovery.
So that was the first woman to receive this treatment and the first life saved by this treatment.
So the FDA came along and banned DMSO research in 1965.
Of course they did.
Because the FDA is a terrorist organization, That wants people to be sick and to die.
And, you know, the FDA protects big pharma.
You know all that.
But did you know that the FDA goes out of its way to ban things that work?
To ban cures.
Or to ban research on those cures.
And that's exactly what happened in 1965.
And since then, there was this massive effort, you know, all part of Rockefeller Medicine to try to cover up the truth about this extraordinary treatment.
But the research continued in other countries.
And what they found is that patients had far better outcomes if they did not undergo chemotherapy.
And there were many different methods of applying this DMSO solution or D-hematosilin.
Those methods include, of course, intravenously, but also they tried orally.
They tried intra-arterially, they tried rectally, and also topically.
With the topical applications of this found to be extremely helpful for cervical cancer.
Isn't that interesting?
For cervical cancer.
So with no surgery, no injections, nothing crazy, just basically DMSO plus this dye, hematoxilin, a dye that...
You can buy on Amazon, by the way.
I mean, you can buy it on eBay.
I mean, it's a very common dye.
It's commonly available.
If you do buy it, by the way, try to get it pure.
Don't get it mixed with other crap.
I've seen mixtures of this that are for slide staining that are mixed with chemicals that you wouldn't want on your skin.
So if you happen to want to research this and buy some of this, make sure you get it in a pure form.
But isn't it interesting that topically it works?
Further research found that it worked with all kinds of cancers, breast and ovary cancers, adenocarcinomas, giant cell bone cancers.
It even worked with squamous cell carcinomas, cervical cancer, lung cancer, mouth cancer, prostate, stomach, etc.
It didn't always work in every case, and some types of cancers responded better than others, but it showed efficacy across a very wide spectrum of cancers.
In one case, a woman had a malignant giant cell tumor affecting a third of one of her femur bones, and after this treatment, she experienced a complete regression and new bone regeneration.
And see, that's something the cancer industry doesn't want you to know about.
So the research was so astounding that, of course, the American Cancer Society, which depends on the existence of cancer in order to keep raising money, the American Cancer Society, in my view, is a giant con.
So in 1971, they put out a bulletin warning everybody against using D-hematosilin, saying that it didn't work.
And it was unproven, you know, typical stuff that you would expect from the American Cancer Society, which, again, in my view, is a total con.
Just really a criminally run operation.
And then because of this Dr. Tucker, he was fired from the hospital where he worked and then another hospital, and he stopped publishing research on this substance.
And that was the shutdown that took place in the 1970s to try to stop any more research from showing that this could treat or even reverse cancers.
What's extraordinary about D-hematosylin is that it has virtually no side effects, no signs of organ damage.
In some people, if administered intravenously at high doses, it would cause a fever.
But usually that was the result of a high dosage.
But the cancers that have been shown in all the research since then that has continued in other countries, it shows that D-hematosilin works on non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which of course is caused by glyphosate exposure,
that it works on bladder cancer, it works on ovarian carcinoma, it works on sarcomas.
Including soft tissue sarcomas and leukemias, particularly acute leukemia.
And cancers with a giant cell tumor phenotype.
Now, again, I'm sourcing this from MidwesternDoctor.com, and I want to give the author credit because it's an extraordinary article.
But I also want to say, if you want to go down this rabbit hole, just wait for the launch of Brighteon.ai because we have a tremendous amount of research on this.
In the system and more coming.
This treatment did not work well for melanoma or lung cancer or colon cancer or gastric cancer or brain cancer, possibly because many of those tissues are much more difficult to reach,
especially via IV.
So some of the takeaways from this are that D-hematosilin, Selectively targets cancer cells.
And that cancer cells did not develop a resistance to this substance as cancer cells can do with chemotherapy.
And then from the article it says here, while some tumors rapidly disappear, other types frequently become avascular, which that's because of the anti-angiogenesis effect.
In other words, the blood supply stops to them.
And then they are dried out, blanched, or fibrous rather than being directly shrunk.
So those tumors, in some cases, then are relatively easy to extract surgically.
Importantly, where D-hematosilin worked for patients, there are virtually no relapses.
It is a cure, and it's a permanent cure.
Fascinating, right?
I mean, of course the American Cancer Society doesn't want people to know about this, my goodness.
Why would they exist?
If we already know about a cure for cancer, especially many different types of cancers, you know, no wonder the FDA shut this down.
No wonder the ACS shut it down.
One other note is that it is not as effective in vaccinated individuals who are suffering from the vaccine turbo cancers.
So there's something about the vaccines, you know, probably the mRNA, etc., that really programs cells to cancer, toward cancer.
But this DMSO substance is unable to overcome that in some cases.
So it's better to not be vaccinated.
During intravenous administration, patients can also experience chills or alternating hot-cold sensations.
Especially in the first one or two sessions.
And often this indicates that they've reached kind of maybe a guardrail limit of how much they should have in that session.
But that's been noted in the research.
So the bottom line in all of this, look, I can't go into every detail of all the protocols here.
There's a lot.
But what I want to mention is that my belief, Current understanding of how this works is that DMSO is a very potent carrier of certain pigment chemicals such as hematozylin or potentially phycocyanin from spirulina,
and it can selectively deliver these molecules to cancer cells, and DMSO also has many other benefits for other tissues.
Pain treatments, for example, and a whole lot more.
So let me just wrap this up by saying, again, this is all experimental medicine, but it's also, this is something that has been deliberately covered up by the FDA and covered up by the American Cancer Society, in my view.
And this knowledge has been withheld from humanity.
And if this is interesting to you, the fact that you can use DMSO to topically deliver molecules to tissues, then I want you to start thinking about all the different possible uses of that.
What about extracts of turmeric, such as curcumin, for anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects?
What about extracts from beetroot, you know, the red pigment?
Or what about the anthocyanins that are found in various blue and purple and black berries?
We have an anthocyanin dietary supplement product that's basically just powdered berries for sale in our store.
It's not an extract of just the anthocyanins, but it's a combination of the anthocyanin-rich berries.
Well, what if those pigments, if they could be extracted and isolated, could they be used then topically?
And I believe there are some very potent anthocyanin Liquids that are available that might be useful for researching that.
And I also know it's pretty easy to make an extract of a phycocyanin out of spirulina.
All you have to do is take spirulina and soak it in water and alcohol, like vodka, and use an ultrasonic container there and just go at it.
And then you pour off the liquid, which is a very deep blue-green color.
And then if you dry that, you have mostly pure phycocyanin powder, which again is very valuable.
And it has a lot of amazing uses.
And what about methylene blue?
There's a lot of buzz about methylene blue right now.
Does it have possible uses?
Or are there berry extracts?
Is there cinnamon extract?
Are there traditional Chinese medicine herbs that...
Could be used for this.
You know, shikimic acid, for example.
How can DMSO be used to deliver molecules to tissues in a way that is safe and efficacious?
I don't know the answers to this question.
But I know that this knowledge area has been heavily suppressed.
And I know that for me personally, if I were suffering from some kind of tumor or cancer that was...
Close to the surface of the skin.
I know what I would do.
I mean, I'd be doing a bunch of things.
But I absolutely know what I would be doing.
And I would be using DMSO and doing a lot of research, etc.
But, you know, think about all the essential oils.
Think about all the molecules that come from nature and how now they can be delivered into tissues using DMSO.
Fascinating, right?
So there are all kinds of things.
There are bilberry extracts that are very high in anthocyanins, that are liquid.
And those might have special functions.
I would just caution you about one thing.
Remember that anything you put on your skin, if you apply DMSO to it, it's going to really push that into your tissues and your cells.
And as you know, I've warned many times about toxic fragrance chemicals.
So if you're using toxic laundry detergent or fabric softeners, which is pretty much all the mainstream brands, if you're using toxic shampoo detergents, deodorants, skin lotions, perfumes, colognes, essentially any of that stuff.
Cosmetics are loaded with fragrance.
So if you have toxic fragrance on your skin and then you put DMSO on it, what's it going to do?
It's going to drive all those toxic cancer-causing fragrance chemicals into your tissues.
So don't use DMSO with toxic substances on your skin.
And many people don't realize how toxic their perfumes are or their cosmetics or their sunscreen or their lotions or whatever.
I'm just mentioning this in the interest of your safety.
Make sure that you are clean and you don't have...
Crazy toxins all over your skin when you apply DMSO if you choose to do that.
So brainstorm this.
Think about how this can be useful to you.
Do your own research.
Understand I'm not your doctor.
I'm not giving you medical advice.
I'm not even advocating that you do any of this that I've mentioned here.
What I'm saying is that this is something to research if it's of interest to you.
But make sure you are well informed.
And, I mean, I use DMSO topically from time to time for different situations.
So I know DMSO as being safe and effective for lots of things.
But it's also, it can be very drying by itself as well.
So it does tend to dry out skin and tissues.
So just be cautious with how you use it.
And I'm not advocating drinking it or certainly not injecting it or putting it in an IV, although there are...
There are qualified doctors who oversee that kind of thing.
That's their specialty.
There's one doctor in particular in Ecuador who does this treatment.
But I'm not going to mention his name here because I don't want to bring extra attention to what he's doing.
Anyway, that's my discussion on hidden cures and treatments.
We talked about chlorine dioxide and now we've talked a lot about DMSO.
And there are other things.
We could have talked about ivermectin or essential oils or, frankly, anthocyanins or curcumin or other kinds of things.
But DMSO is something that I think needs to be on your radar.
So check it out.
Do research.
And frankly, right now, the best writer on the Internet about this is MidwesternDoctor.com, who's got a Substack site.
That requires a paid subscription.
And I purchase a subscription to his site.
But he's got the best documentation on DMSO right now.
Probably even better than Brighteon.ai, but I guess we'll find out soon.
But we are going to up the DMSO training material for our AI engine in the months ahead.
So I'll keep you posted about that.
That's coming.
So I want to play one book review video for you here called Chinese Herbal Cures by Henry C. Liu.
Maybe that's Liu.
I don't know.
Anyway, it's spelled L-U, so it's just Liu.
Chinese Herbal Cures.
I think this is a great fit for today's topic because using DMSO with other substances seems to be this incredible synergy.
This is the ticket to a lot of amazing treatments.
And I think the more we know about herbs, the more we can understand the potential for their function on various human tissues, whether it's joints or cancer tumors or healing injuries or reducing inflammation, reducing chronic pain, things like that.
So check out this book review video.
Again, Chinese Herbal Cures by Henry Liu and...
Thank you for your support.
emergency backup situations, check them out at SAT123-425.
Today, we're diving into the mystical and intriguing realm of Chinese herbal medicine.
We'll be exploring the legendary book, Chinese Herbal Cures, by Henry C. Liu, a treasure trove of ancient wisdom and modern applications.
So, grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let's embark on this enlightening journey together.
Did you know that Chinese herbal medicine boasts a history spanning thousands of years?
It's a system deeply rooted in the belief that nature holds the key to health and longevity.
The book we're discussing today is not just a collection of herbs and their uses.
It's a narrative that weaves together folklore, science, and practical advice.
It's a journey through time, from the prehistoric era to the modern day.
Highlighting the evolution of Chinese medicine.
Let's start with the legendary herbs.
According to Lu, there are over 5,000 Chinese herbs, but only a select few have achieved legendary status.
These are the herbs that have been revered for their extraordinary effectiveness in preventing disease and promoting good health.
Imagine a time when stories were the only way to pass down knowledge.
These herb stories were like fairy tales, filled with mythical elements designed to capture the imagination and ensure the knowledge was remembered.
For example, puffballs were said to be effective in stopping bleeding, a use that is still recognized today.
These legends, while not scientifically verifiable, often reflect the herb's actual effects as acknowledged by professional herbalists.
It's a fascinating blend of myth and reality, where the line between the two is often blurred.
Chinese medicine is traditionally divided into four branches, herbalism, food cures, acupuncture, and manipulative therapy.
Herbalism and food cures are often practiced together, as many plants are considered both food and medicine.
This dual nature is a cornerstone of Chinese medicine, emphasizing the interconnectedness of diet and health.
The book also delves into the historical development of these branches.
For instance, the discovery of fire led to the practices of moxibustion and ironing, which use heat and herbs to heal various ailments.
It's a testament to the ingenuity of ancient peoples, who used their observations and experiences to develop effective healing methods.
A significant portion of the book is dedicated to The Yellow Emperor's Classics of Internal Medicine, a foundational text in Chinese medicine.
This classic outlines fundamental principles that are still followed by Chinese physicians today.
It's a stark contrast to Western medicine, where the history of medicine is often seen as irrelevant to clinical practice.
In Chinese medicine, the experiences of ancient physicians are considered invaluable.
This is because Chinese medicine is based on centuries of clinical experience, which remains relevant today.
the book provides examples of how these ancient principles are applied in modern clinical practice demonstrating their enduring validity the book lists twenty major classifications of herbs each representing a specific action or effect for instance there are herbs that induce perspiration reduce excessive heat relieve pain and regulate energy each class has specific uses and
precautions Providing a comprehensive guide for treating various ailments.
For example, herbs that induce perspiration are used to treat the common cold and flu, as well as related symptoms like headache and fever.
However, they should be avoided in cases of dehydration or chronic internal organ diseases.
This highlights the importance of understanding the properties and appropriate applications of each herb.
In modern China, both Chinese and Western medicine are practiced side by side, with patients having the freedom to choose between them this has led to the development of combined therapy where Chinese and Western treatments are used together for optimal results for instance patients might opt for Western medicine in crisis situations or for conditions requiring surgery while choosing Chinese medicine for chronic diseases like rheumatism and hypertension this approach reflects a broader trend
towards integrative medicine where the strengths of different systems are combined to provide comprehensive care.
The book provides insights into how this integration works in practice, offering a glimpse into the future of medicine.
The book also explores the role of emotions and fatigue in disease.
In Chinese medicine, emotions are seen as powerful forces that can either heal or harm.
Excessive or prolonged emotional states can disrupt the body's energy balance, leading to various ailments.
Similarly, fatigue can weaken the body, making it more susceptible to disease.
The author provides examples of how these factors are addressed in Chinese medicine, offering practical advice for maintaining emotional and physical wellbeing.
This holistic approach is a hallmark of Chinese medicine.
Emphasizing the importance of a balanced lifestyle.
In conclusion, Chinese Herbal Cures is more than just a book about herbs.
It's a journey through the rich tapestry of Chinese medicine.

We've got a new product at the Health Ranger store called Oat Milk Powder.
Here it is.
Available now and it's got just one ingredient, which is oats.
I mean, check it out.
It's loaded with natural minerals and it's about 5% fat organic oat milk powder.
Certified organic, laboratory tested.
And it's a great base for lots of smoothies.
You know, I make my smoothies every day.
And I started putting it in here as well.
Just gives it an extra rich and sweet taste, actually.
Oat milk powder is naturally kind of sweet.
And if you really want to jazz it up, you can add a banana to it, or you can put whey protein in it.
Let me show you what I have on my desk here.
Just some ideas of some of the things that I use in my smoothies.
Because, you know, I've been...
Living on a smoothie for breakfast and lunch for like 20 years now.
And so I'll use like Coco Energize.
I'll use whey protein.
I'll put broccoli sprouts in it for the sulforaphane.
And there's the oat milk powder.
I also use turmeric powder and then instant coffee sometimes.
But those are currently out of stock at our stores.
So you have to check back on those later.
And you can use anthocyanins for fruit-based smoothies, etc.
But now I use a big Vitamix blender.
But for those of you who want to have something more convenient for your office that's portable, we now carry the Blendie portable blenders at healthrangerstore.com.
Just search for Blendie, B-L-E-N-D-I, and there's a couple different sizes there.
Now, these clearly are not as strong as a Vitamix, but they're portable, great at the workplace, great for travel.
You can use it in a hotel room.
Or, you know, you can use it on the go.
You can use it, you know, traveling or in an RV or what have you.
And these can blend up, you know, bananas and all these different powders and the new oat milk powder that we have as well quite successfully.
And if you want to make my smoothie, it's really just put in like half an avocado and half of a big banana into the blendy with some of these other powders.
You know, cacao powder and whey protein powder, a little bit of turmeric powder, etc.
And then you're going to get a smoothie really close to what I drink every single day.
So that's how you do it.
And we've got these products and so much more available at healthrangerstore.com where every purchase helps support our network and our effort to bring you technologies and solutions and knowledge for human empowerment, life, liberty, and happiness.
