Chilomastix

This parasite is most often found in the intestines and rarely causes infections, even in people with compromised immune systems. Less than 5 percent of people in the United States are infected with the organism. Chilomastix makes it into the human body via simple food or water contamination or the fecal-oral route. This means that transmission occurs from the feces of an infected individual to the mouth (by ingestion) of a new host. Even the tiniest amount of fecal matter, like what might be left microscopically on the hand after a visit to the toilet, can get transferred to another person and cause infection.

Chilomastix burrows into the intestinal tract itself, specifically the colon. Although the organism is microscopic and can be found only through a stool sample test, it doesn't have the ability to enter the cells of the intestinal wall, nor is it capable of spreading to other parts of the body (at least, that is what they are saying so far).

Campylobacteriosis

Campylobacter

The natural habitat for Campylobacter is the gastrointestinal tract of mammals, birds and reptiles. It causes an infection known as Campylobacteriosis. Campylobacter is now recognized as one of the main causes of bacterial foodborne disease in many developed countries. At least a dozen species of Campylobacter have been implicated in human disease, with C. jejuni and C. coli the most common. C. fetus is a cause of spontaneous abortions in cattle and sheep, as well as an opportunistic pathogen in humans.

The common types of transmission are fecal-oral, ingestion of contaminated food or water, and the eating of raw meat. It produces an inflammatory, sometimes bloody, diarrhea, periodontitis or dysentery syndrome, mostly including cramps, fever and pain. The infection is usually self-limiting and symptoms typically last for five to seven days.

The sites of tissue injury include the jejunum, the ileum, and the colon. Most strains of C jejuni produce a toxin that hinders the cells from dividing and activating the immune system. This helps the bacteria to evade the immune system and survive for a limited time in the cells. The organism produces diffuse, bloody, edematous, and exudative enteritis (inflammation of small intestine). In a small number of cases, the infection may be associated with hemolytic uremic syndrome (extreme kidney stress) and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (blood clots) through a poorly understood mechanism. Gastrointestinal perforation from extreme, prolonged diarrhea is a rare complication of ileal infection, but if extreme internal pain is experienced, seek emergency medical attention as this bacteria can lead to Guillain-Barre Syndrome and paralysis.

The illness is CONTAGIOUS, and children must be kept at home until they have been clear of symptoms for at least two days. Good hygiene is important to avoid contracting the illness or spreading it to others.

This Quantum Formula antidotes the various species in the Campylobacter genus, as well as oxidase, cytolethal distending toxin.

Cholesterol

Heart disease is one of the top causes of death in the world and cholesterol has been deemed a primary culprit. But is cholesterol really the villain in heart disease? That widely held narrative is certainly what the people who make the money selling Statin drugs tell you. However evidence and real life experience indicate that if you are on medication for cholesterol, not only is it not helping you prevent heart disease, you may be in more danger! The meds may be reducing the numbers seen in your blood test, but at what cost to your health? The fact of the matter is that there is not a single scientific paper on the planet proving that cholesterol causes atherosclerosis (clogged arteries or arterial plaque) which supposedly leads to heart disease. Check this link for that proof. https://www.westonaprice.org/the-cholesterol-hypothesis-by-tim-noakes/

So eat what you want and don't worry what your cholesterol numbers are? Well, no. Eating unhealthy does damage to your body somewhere, even if is isn't directly linked to your heart. The cholesterol numbers indicate damage to your circulatory system, not the risk of heart disease. The human body is incredibly intelligent. If your cholesterol numbers are getting too high (and we will talk about what high numbers are in a moment) it is actually helping you! It is a signal that you have injury occurring inside your circulatory system and the body is making cholesterol to patch the injury. So what happens when you take toxic medications to stop the process? You have also stopped the repair mechanism for the injured vessels. The bigger issue is tryiglycerides and the thing that drives that up is too much refined sugar and simple carbohydrates.

Total cholesterol should be between 180-200 ml/dl (milligrams per deciliter, which are the units in which blood cholesterol is measured in the United States). 220 isn't even a number to worry about, certainly not worth taking medication for! Shucks, if my numbers were to spike for some reason, I would never consider medication as an option. I would just start doing more exercise and cut the sugar and carbs for a while. The medications used to reduce cholesterol are far worse for your health than the cholesterol itself and they are not even addressing the real issue! The cholesterol game is one of modern medicines biggest scams ($$). Did you know that cholesterol is actually good for you? Cholesterol is an essential component of all cell membranes, it is required to maintain a healthy cell wall. It is also a precursor to many hormones (these are the critical messengers in your body). It is required for bile acids, which help digest fats, and it is necessary to make vitamin D. Without a proper amount of cholesterol, you simply cannot be healthy. A total cholesterol less than 180 isn't even healthy!

Most cholesterol is made in our liver and the liver makes far more cholesterol than you could ever eat in a day. It has very little to do with "high cholesterol" foods and nothing to do with genetics either. It is all about the kinds of sugars and carbs you consume and how well your body processes them. It is the liver's job to store and process glucose (sugars) and when it can't, you will have problems with cholesterol and tryglicerides.

What about "good" vs. "bad" cholesterol? Useless rubbish, get back to the real issues.

If you have a severe cholesterol problem, refined sugars are typically too high in your diet. Eliminate the carbs for a while, or at least simple carbs and anything with added sugars, particularly high fructose corn syrup and yes, low calorie sweeteners as well. (Stevia is fine to use.) As far as meats, fats, eggs and other "high cholesterol" foods, if you choose organic, free range versions of those, they play pretty much zero influence in cholesterol issues. There is a FREE treatment that compliments those dietary changes very well. It's called exercise! I definitely recommend use of the protocol listed to ensure any deeper causes, like liver imbalance, are being dealt with. I listed IC-1 in the protocol because the ingredients are wonderful at pulling excess fat from the body and cleaning out the intestine. I would highly consider the Gallstone Flush (explained in the Blog) and repeat it as often as every 5 weeks until you are not passing any sludge or stones.

By the way, the main reason a person has a heart attack is from elevated levels of homocystein.

Brown Recluse Spider Detox Information

The brown recluse spider's venom is extremely poisonous, even more potent than that of a rattlesnake. However, the recluse spider venom causes less disease than a rattlesnake bite because of the small quantities injected into its victims. Still, the venom of the brown recluse is toxic to cells and tissues.

Brown recluse spider bites often go unnoticed initially because they are typically painless bites. Occasionally, some minor burning that feels like a bee sting is noticed at the time of the bite. Symptoms usually develop two to eight hours after a bite. Characteristic violin-shaped markings on their backs are the reason why brown recluse spiders have also been named fiddleback spiders. Most bites cause little tissue destruction and bites from non-brown recluse spiders pose no real threat.

Brown Recluse Bite Symptoms:
  • severe pain at bite site after about four hours
  • severe itching
  • nausea
  • vomiting
  • fever
  • myalgias (muscle pain)

Initially the bite site is slightly red and close inspection may reveal fang marks. Often the bite site will become firm and heal with little scaring over the next few days or weeks. Occasionally, the local reaction will be more severe with erythema (redness) and blistering. This can lead to a blue discoloration and ultimately, lead to a necrotic lesion and scarring. Signs that may be present include:

  • blistering (common)
  • necrosis (death) of skin and subcutaneous fat (less common)
  • severe destructive necrotic lesions with deep wide borders (rare)
  • in severe cases, renal failure, seizures and coma, even death can occur.
After a spider bite:
  • Apply ice to decrease pain and swelling (never use heat!).
  • Elevate area, if possible, above the level of the heart.
  • Wash the area thoroughly with cool water and mild soap.
  • Avoid any strenuous activity because this can spread the spider's venom in the skin.

Our Brown Recluse Spider Detox Remedy is an antidote to the destructive cytotoxic and hemolytic poisons as well as the destructive enzymes hyaluronidase, deoxyribonuclease, ribonuclease, alkaline phosphatase, lipase. It deactivates the protein Sphingomyelinase D, C-reactive protein and balances the factors that contribute to inflammation such as histamines, cytokines, interleukins, arachidonic acid, prostaglandins, and chemotactic infiltration of neutrophils.

Warning

The most dangerous part of a brown recluse bite is not the bite itself, but the infection that sets in after the bite. Necrosis (tissue death) along the bite site can lead to serious MRSA infections and other secondary infections that can lead to wounds such as that in the photo. If you have a current bite wound, PLEASE use the Liquid Detox on the wound several times a day and take a colloidal silver (18ppm) supplement internally, possibly even externally on the wound as well.

Remember that our Liquid Detox is one of the most effective remedies for treating/healing bites and wounds. It is powerful at helping reduce pain, swelling and itching, and is very effective at preventing infection. You can apply it directly to the bite or wound or soak the absorbent part of a band aid (3-5 drops) in Liquid Detox and apply it to the bite or wound.

Bronchitis

Bronchitis is inflammation of the mucous membranes of the bronchi, the airways that carry airflow from the trachea into the lungs. Bronchitis is generally divided into two categories, acute and chronic.

Acute bronchitis is characterized by the development of a cough, with or without the production of mucus that is expectorated (coughed up) from the respiratory tract. About 90% of cases of acute bronchitis are caused by viruses, particularly rhinoviruses, adenoviruses, and influenza while bacteria account for fewer than 10%. Bacterias that are responsible tend to be Mycoplasma, Chlamydophila, Bordetella, Streptococcus, and Haemophilus. Acute bronchitis can be annoying but even with no treatment, most cases of acute bronchitis resolve without treatment. Even though the symptoms clear up though, lack of natural treatment of the germs often allows them to hibernate and allow for symptoms to re-occur down the road.

Because most cases of bronchitis are viral in origin, the use of antibiotics is rare (because it is not effective). Any fever can be addressed with The Artificial Fever you can do at home. Read the page on Coughing to see what "at home" treatments you might use to refrain from using NSAIDs.

Chronic bronchitis, a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, is characterized by the presence of a productive cough that lasts for three months or more per year for at least two years. Chronic bronchitis most commonly develops due to recurrent injury to the airways, often caused by inhaled irritants. Cigarette smoking is the most common cause (Detox for Cigarettes here), followed by air pollution and occupational exposure to irritants.

Tips for helping Bronchitis:
  1. When the bronchials are inflamed, avoid areas with dry air. Moist air is much less irritating. A steamy shower, or a pot of slow boiling water to release steam into the air, etc.
  2. Drink plenty of fluids! The bronchial tubes need plenty of fluid to heal and repair. Get lots of rest and keep your heart rate low.
  3. Onions are expectorants and help the flow of mucus. You can also eat onions raw, cooked, baked, in soups and stews or as seasoning. Honey is very soothing to the throat and bronchials, soak some raw onion in honey over night, remove onion and eat a tablespoon 4 times a day if you are not diabetic.
  4. Lemons help rid the respiratory system of bacteria and mucus. Make a cup of lemon tea by grating 1 teaspoon lemon rind and adding it to 1 cup boiling water. Steep for 5 minutes. Or, you can boil a lemon wedge. Strain into a cup and drink.
  5. If the chest is very sore, soak bay leaves (dried or fresh) in hot water for 10 minutes. Apply the leaves to chest and cover with a warm, moist towel.
  6. If you have a history of bronchial problems, look at the Large Intestine and its healthy functions. You may need to start IC-1 because health of the lung/bronchial is contingent of good intestinal function.

botulism

Clostridium

The natural habitat for Clostridium species are soil, water and the gastrointestinal tract of animals and humans. The Clostridium genus includes common free-living bacteria as well as important pathogens. Some of the main species and how you might be exposed to them include:

  • C. botulinum, an organism that produces botulinum toxin in food can cause botulism. Honey sometimes contains spores of Clostridium botulinum. The toxin eventually paralyzes the infant's breathing muscles. This same toxin is known as "Botox" and is used cosmetically to paralyze facial muscles to reduce the signs of aging. It also has numerous therapeutic uses.
  • C. difficile can flourish when other bacteria in the stomach are killed during antibiotic therapy, leading to pseudomembranous colitis (a cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea).
  • C. perfringens cause a wide range of symptoms, from food poisoning to gas gangrene. It is responsible for enterotoxemia (also known as "overeating disease" or "pulpy kidney disease" even though it has nothing to do with overeating) in sheep and goats. C. perfringens also takes the place of yeast in the making of salt rising bread.
  • C. tetani is the organism responsible for tetanus and lock jaw. The name is derived from "of a tension", referring to the tension (caused by tetanus) in the muscles.
  • C. sordellii has been linked to the deaths of more than a dozen women after medical abortions.
  • C. thermocellum can utilize lignocellulosic waste and generate ethanol, making it a possible candidate for use in the production of ethanol fuel.
  • C. acetobutylicum is used to produce acetone and biobutanol for the production of gunpowder and TNT.

The toxic part of Clostridium is not the bacteria itself, but the toxins these bacteria produce. Seven types of neurotoxins have been identified in botulinum alone. Most of these toxins have been included in this remedy, so the need for this remedy may not always be for the bacteria itself, but for the toxins these bacteria produce. Many of these toxins are from commercial and industrial uses, so you may be exposed at a work place or from toxins released in the environment.

  • This Quantum Formula antidotes the various species in the Clostridium genus as well as botulism toxin A-G, beta toxin, epsilon toxin, perfringens type C and D and other neurotoxins, lignocellulosic waste, ethanol, endoglucanase, etc.

    Acne

    All types of acne - blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, papule, pustules, nodules and cysts - develop when pores in our skin become clogged. The culprit is sebum [see-bum], an oil in our skin. Our bodies make more sebum when our hormones surge. This is why teens get acne. This is why women often breakout before their periods. Allergies and intestinal problems can lead to excess sebum as well.

    What happens inside the clogged pore determines the type of acne we see. A blackhead appears when sebum and dead skin cells clog the pore. While the pore is clogged, its surface remains open. This lets us look into the pore and see a black color.

    A whitehead forms when the excess oil and dead skin cells clog the pore and block the opening of the pore. Acne develops where we have the most sebaceous glands. These glands make sebum and are found in the greatest number on our face, neck, chest, back, shoulders, and upper arms.

    But excess oil does more than clog pores. Bacteria that normally live on our skin, P. acnes, thrive in this excess oil. Immersed in excess oil, the bacteria can rapidly increase in number. As the bacteria multiply in a clogged pore, the pore becomes inflamed. Inflammation is what causes a pimple to look red, hot, and swollen. When inflammation reaches deep into the skin, an acne cyst forms. This is the most severe type of acne. Cysts can be very painful. If pustule, nodule or cystic acne is not corrected it can lead to severe acne known as Acne Conglobata (vulgaris), Acne Fulminans, Gram Negative Folliculitis, Nodulocystic Acne.

    NOTE: Acne is not really a skin problem, the skin is the side effect, the symptom of the deeper issue. Constipation! Show me a person with acne and I give you a person with too much accumulated waste in their system. If the bowels are not evacuating at least twice a day, consider some Bowel Stimulant. If you tend to eat too much junk food, use the IC-2 to clean out some waste. Yes, Proactive and various facial washes / treatments may help, but stop them and see what happens. Why? Because you didn't fix the cause. Since hormones fluctuate in the years leading up to menopause, many women in their 40s and 50s get acne. Is it just the hormones? No. Why do other women have no skin problems? When hormones surge, the liver is in charge of cleaning the excess away. The person with liver congestion is the one who gets the acne.

    Blastomyces

    Blastomyces species cause Blastomycosis, a rare fungal infection usually acquired by inhaling the spores of Blastomyces. It is found in wood and soil after contaminated soil is disturbed by activities such as excavation, construction, digging, or wood clearing. It is not spread from person-to-person or from animal-to-person. Blastomycosis occurs most often in people that live in the central and southeastern United States, particularly in the Mississippi and Ohio River valleys and the Great Lakes states.

    The time between exposure and when symptoms develop varies widely, ranging from 21 to 100 days. The signs and symptoms of blastomycosis also vary among individuals. About 50% of people infected do not develop any symptoms or disease and the infection is resolved without treatment. However, some patients develop a chronic lung infection and/or the disease can spread to other areas of the body such as skin, bones, genitourinary system, or central nervous system.

    Symptoms may include: Fever, Cough, Cough with blood, Shortness of breath, Muscle aches, Bone pain, Back pain, Chest pain, Fatigue, Weight loss and Skin sores (see photo).

    Yersinia

    Some members of Yersinia are pathogenic in humans. One in particular, Y. pestis, is the causative agent of the plague called Yersiniosis. Rodents are the natural reservoirs of Yersinia; less frequently other mammals serve as the host. Infection may occur through blood (in the case of Y. pestis it is spread by flea bites). The symptoms of plague depend on the concentrated areas of infection in each person. Examples are: bubonic plague in lymph nodes, septicemic plague in blood vessels, pneumonic plague in lungs, and so on.

    Yersinia may also be spread via consumption of food products (especially vegetables, milk-derived products and meat) contaminated with infected urine or feces. Because Yersinia are known to be intracellular parasites, it is also believed that they can be acquired if a person is contaminated with certain kinds of parasites -the bacteria live within the parasite.

    Yersinia is implicated as one of the causes of reactive arthritis worldwide, and suspected to be the cause of some Crohn's disease and pseudoappendicitis, which are symptoms of appendicitis but not actually an apendix condition.

    While Yersinia bacteria can survive extreme cold and may not be affected by freezing, they are inactivated by oxidizing agents such as exposure to hydrogen peroxide.

    This Quantum Formula antidotes the various species in the Yersinia genus and its subspecies.
