"Holsworth has traveled to germany and Japan in his pursuit of understanding enzymes in their clinical application. In germany, Dr. Holsworth met with the late Dr. Karl Ransberger, one of the original researchers who determined the benefits of animal enzymes. In Japan, he met Dr. Hiroyuki Sumi, who discovered the nattokinase enzyme. Dr. Holsworth applies his knowledge and experience to support other doctors to understand the benefits of enzymes in a clinical setting. WILLIAM KELLEY, DDS, MS In 1963, William Kelley, a dentist, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer." - Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.)

"Both Frederick III of germany and his son Maximilian II died of melon overdoses. Others who fell victim to the assassinating melon include Guy de la Brosse, Louis XHFs doctor; the Baron de Rougemont in 1840; and Albert II of germany King John died in 1216 after overdoing it with peaches. Artists, always intense, have taken fruit appreciation to maddening lengths. Alexandre Dumas ate an apple every morning at dawn beneath the Arc de Triomphe. He offered his life's work to the town of Cavaillon in exchange for an annuity of melons." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.)

"Before thalidomide was introduced, phocomelia had been so rare in germany that most doctors did not see a case in their lifetime. After the newspaper revealed the horrors that Dr. Lenz had found, Griinenthal removed thalidomide from the market in germany. Other countries also quickly halted its sales. Thousands more Americans would have taken the sedative if it had not been for a doctor at the FDA named Frances O. Kelsey. She had been reviewing the application that Merrell submitted to gain approval to sell thalidomide in the United States. Dr." - Melody Petersen, Our Daily Meds: How the Pharmaceutical Companies Transformed Themselves into Slick Marketing Machines and Hooked the Nation on Prescription Drugs (Get the book.)

"Born in southwest germany in 1954, Moritz had to deal with several severe illnesses from an early age, which compelled him to study diet, nutrition, and various methods of natural healing while still a child. By the age of 20, he had completed his training in both iridology—the diagnostic science of eye interpretation—and dietetics. In 1981, he began studying Ayurvedic medicine in India and finished his training as a qualified practitioner of Ayurveda in New Zealand in 1991." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"Many consider ginkgo a neuroprotective agent as well as an antioxidant. In germany, more than 5 million prescriptions for ginkgo are written every year, and sales in the U.S. are $240 million per year. Studies have shown some benefit in patients with dementia, although the effects on cognitive test scores were no greater than the modest effects of anticholinesterase inhibitors and were not associated with a subjective impression of improvement by families and doctors." - J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.) "It is, however, prescribed in germany for diabetic neuropathy. In a three-week German study, 328 patients with type 2 diabetes and diabetic neuropathy received either intravenous ALA or a placebo. The study found a statistically significant improvement in the pain, tingling, and disability related to neuropathy in those who got the ALA. This study also looked at seventy-three of the participants who had type 2 diabetes and cardiac neuropathy and who had taken either oral ALA or placebo. Those who had taken ALA showed an improvement in measures of cardiac heart-rate conductance." - J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.) "Based on some small earlier trials of questionable methodology that were performed primarily in germany, echinacea was initially claimed to reduce the length of colds. Results of more recent randomized, double-blind trials conducted in the U.S. using appropriate methods, however, have not been consistent with those of the German studies. For instance, in one study 148 students with new-onset common colds were given either echinacea or a placebo for ten days. The duration of colds for those who took the plant was 6.27 days, and it was 5.75 days for those on placebo." - J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.) "France, germany, England, Ireland, and other countries popped up in the medical literature, all within just a few years of its introduction to the market. The cases of Accutane-related depression and suicide reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Drug Administration were much higher than those of similar events related to other treatments for acne, such as antibiotics. By 2000 Accutane had earned the distinction of having the largest number of reports of side effects to agencies like the WHO of any drug in the world." - J.

"His doctors at one of the most prestigious university hospitals in germany had just "given" him three more weeks to live when he sought me out for help. According to them, his cancer was too advanced and widespread to consider having treatments of chemotherapy or radiation. Healing Cancer Versus Fighting It George had lost one of his kidneys to cancer one year earlier. After emerging from the operating room, his doctors gave him a "clean bill of health." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"In the 1800s, pharmaceutical companies in germany began developing and producing drugs for medical purposes on a large scale. These companies grouped together and formed a cartel. In the late 1800s this cartel established operations in the United States. It was backed by Rockefeller and the German chemical and pharmaceutical company I. G. Farben in alliance with Dupont, Standard Oil, and Ford. The Food and Drug Administration, or fda, was formed in 1906 to establish credibility and keep public opinion positive toward the use of pharmaceuticals." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"Deadly Cell Phones and Other Wireless Devices An increasing number of medical researchers, environment protection agencies, governments and individuals are concerned that wireless technology may be causing serious harm to people and the environment: • The country of germany has recently (2007) warned the population to avoid wireless devices." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"I have also measured the magnitude of the emf by using a sophisticated, electronic machine made in germany. By both methods I have compared the emf of "healthy" individuals to those having known organ illnesses. In the Kirlian photograph, the sick animal and person show "holes" in the emf and the amplitude of their emf is very weak compared to the continuous, strong emf of a healthy body. What weakens the emf and causes illness and pain? 1 Inheritance of a genetic code that is flawed and produces a weakened constitution." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"Alpha-lipoic acid, as mentioned in the previous chapter, is an approved drug in germany for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. In fact, it has been successfully used in germany for more than 30 years. The beneficial effects of alpha-lipoic acid in diabetic neuropathy have been confirmed in several double-blind studies at a dosage of 300 to 600 mg daily." - Michael T.

"Russia, a leader in the field of ionisation therapy, and germany use negative ionisers on a public scale. There is a mass of scientific and medical evidence about the beneficial effect of negative ion therapy from all over the world, including the UK and USA. Major research done by NASA's Molecular Biophysics Laboratory showed that performance, work capacity, allergic conditions, pains, healing and burn recovery were all improved in negatively ionised air. Small, inexpensive ionisers are now available from pharmacies, health food outlets and electrical stores." - Dr Ron Roberts, Asthma Controlled Naturally: Techniques That Work (Get the book.)

"As a Lancet editorial of 1895, reporting on the Indian Medical Congress of the preceding year, observed, Crombie [President of the Medical Section of the Indian Medical Congress] concluded his excellent address with an appeal to his medical hearers in Calcutta not to allow France and germany to remain in the van of bacteriological research, but to make more careful study of the cases which came under their observation in India ... what is wanted is... work by trained experts in properly equipped laboratories to supplement the clinical work of medical officers...." - Roberta Bivins, Alternative Medicine?: A History (Get the book.) "Trials took place in England, Scotland, germany, France, Italy, the Low Countries, and the United States, as well as in more remote locations. Monographs, too, played an important role in propagating acupuncture. For example, the practice of acupuncture by the English-speaking profession was profoundly influenced by a single book: A Treatise on Acupuncturation, published by James Morss Churchill in 1822. Churchill's book, like Berlioz's text before it, introduced the healing needle through a disquisition on its 'Oriental' origins." - Roberta Bivins, Alternative Medicine?: A History (Get the book.) "In Britain and germany, as in the US, medical professionals at the mid-century fought hard to re-establish a single orthodoxy and to imbue it with social, legal, and moral standing. As in the US, their efforts, beginning with organization (the British Medical Association was founded in 1832, and was intended, like its US counterpart, to fight orthodox corruption and quackery alike), self-regulation and the raising of educational standards, and building on the successes of the emerging 'germ theory' did meet with considerable and growing success." - Roberta Bivins, Alternative Medicine?: A History (Get the book.)

"Offering free health care has deceived and misleads the people of Cyprus, germany, France, England, Canada, and it will do the same for the people of the United States, if implemented. This is not to say that this trend is entirely the fault of the medical system. As long as people do not take responsibility for themselves, for their physical and emotional health, and for their dietary habits and lifestyle, we will have such a dangerous system in place. Millions of people experience devastating consequences resulting from medical treatments that are not warranted at all." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"In fact, geopathic stress as an indicator of or a possible causative factor in cancer and other diseases is now taken so seriously in parts of germany that officials have begun to keep health records for individual homeowners, presumably those whose houses have been identified as situated over or near areas of high geopathic stress. Now that we have reviewed the links others have made between Earth fields and health, let's look at what NES research and theory have revealed about this correlation." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)

"John's wort helps relieve stress, anxiety, and tension. In germany, it is the most popular antidepressant, outselling Prozac 3-1. • Black cohosh. First used by the Ametican Indians, Black cohosh works to soothe the body by reducing the rapidity of the pulse. Black cohosh also works internally to help soothe any nervous disease or spasm. • Skullcap, Hops, and Catnip. Three herbs that have a long history as mar-velously effective herbal tranquilizers, sedatives, and sleep aids." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"Max Gerson treated cancer and tuberculosis at his clinic in germany. He was among the first to discover the importance of organically grown whole foods as he conducted research testing the reaction of all types of foods on the body's various systems. He found that raw ripe fruits, vegetables, and juices had the most healthful effects. Dr. Gerson believed that 80 percent of all disease could be eradicated by eliminating canned, frozen, and processed foods from the diet, foods completely devoid of enzymes." - Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.)

"During the reunification of germany in 1990, the birth rate in the former East germany (where reunification was difficult, tumultuous, and anxiety-producing) skewed toward females. A study of births after the ten-day war in Slovenia during the Balkan conflicts of the 1990s and another study of births after the Hanshin earthquake of 1995 in Kobe, Japan, showed evidence of a similar pattern. On the other side of the coin, there is evidence that in times after great conflict, the male birth rate goes up. That's what happened after World War I and World War II." - Dr. Sharon Moalem, Survival of the Sickest: A Medical Maverick Discovers Why We Need Disease (Get the book.)

"It is much easier for foreign reporters, who invariably know English, to respond to stories from the United States or the United Kingdom than to stories from germany or Brazil. Producing news stories is a business with tight deadlines, and it requires fast action. A lot of reporters have the ability to pick up a story from another country in English, and turn it into a local story in a pinch. It's a sure-fire strategy. Even though the original story was in English, practically no viewers or readers will ever know that the reporters took the story from abroad." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.) "Brazil, France, China, and germany roughly tripled, while that of the United Kingdom roughly doubled. The year 1999, the year before the peak, saw real stock price increases averaging, over these ten countries, 58%. All countries' prices went up sharply in 1999; in fact the smallest increase, occurring in the United Kingdom, was still an impressive +16%. In the course of 1999, stock markets in Asia (Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, and South Korea) and Latin America (Chile and Mexico) all made spectacular gains. It was a truly spectacular worldwide stock market boom." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"Codex dietary supplement rules are in effect in Norway and germany. For example, in Norway, the sale of vitamin E is restricted to no more than 45 International Units, the maximum for vitamin C is 200 mg per tablet, and coenzyme qio is now classified as a drug and is dramatically higher in price. In Canada, when the 'sleep booster' tryptophan was reclassified as a drug, the price escalated by 500%. Eventually, the cartel wants to make even home-grown herbs illegal and require all natural supplements to have a Drug Identification Number (din)." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"John's Wort It's the largest selling antidepressant in germany, and does indeed work on mild to moderate depression by elevating the levels of serotonin in the brain, much like the SSRIs such as Lexapro and Prozac. You'll recall that sugar increases serotonin levels, making us temporarily less depressed; conversely, dieters get grouchy because their serotonin levels fall. When supplementing with St. John's Wort, some of my patients—and I-report diminished sugar urges; others didn't notice such an effect." - Dr. Steven R. Gundry, Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution: Turn Off the Genes That Are Killing You - And Your Waistline - And Drop the Weight for Good (Get the book.)

"There is increasing interest in this broader approach, since with all the efforts we made during the last years to approach nutrition-related problems, we did not really solve the problems," says Ingrid Hoffmann, PhD, of the Institute of Nutrition Science, University of Giessen in germany. To create effective solutions, we need a more integrative and encompassing approach, she says. This logic makes perfect sense. After all, the human diet is a highly complex mixture of foods, each comprising a unique blend of components and natural chemicals." - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.)
