SECRET #1Billion-dollar drug company hides astounding discoveryof a natural cancer killer10,000 times stronger than chemo—but without the side effects!Recently, Health Sciences Institute (HSI) uncovered a remarkable story about a natural cancer

killer that had been kept under lock and key for over 20 years. With this information, the future ofcancer treatment and the chances of survival look more promising than ever.

There’s a healing tree that grows deep within the Amazon rainforest in South America that couldliterally change how you, your doctor, and possibly the rest of the world think about curing cancer.Since the 1970s, the bark, leaves, roots, fruit, and fruit seeds of the Amazonian Graviola tree havebeen studied in numerous laboratory tests and have shown remarkable results with this deadly disease.

Several years ago, a major pharmaceutical company began extensive independent research on it.They learned that certain extracts of the tree actually seek out, attack, and destroy cancer cells.Because the natural extracts themselves could not be patented, the company labored to create a syn-thetic copy that showed the same promise.

After more than seven years of work behind closed doors, researchers at this company realizedthey couldn’t duplicate the tree’s natural properties with a patentable substance. So they shut downthe entire project. It basically came down to this—if they couldn’t make huge profits, they wouldkeep the news of this possible cure a well-guarded secret.

But one researcher couldn’t bear that, and decided to risk his job with the hope of saving lives.

Seven years of silence broken

This conscience-driven researcher contacted Raintree Nutrition, a natural products company ded-icated to harvesting plants from the Amazon. In the course of working with Raintree on anotherstory, they shared the exciting Graviola breakthrough with us.

Since then, we’ve been looking closely into the research to date on Graviola. One of the first scientificreferences to it in the United States was by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). In 1976, the NCIshowed that the leaves and stems of this tree were effective in attacking and destroying malignantcells. But these results were part of an internal NCI report and were, for some reason, never madepublic.1

Since 1976, there have been several promising cancer studies on Graviola. However, the tree’sextracts have yet to be tested on cancer patients. No doubleblind clinical trials exist, and clinical trialsare typically the benchmark mainstream doctors and journals use to judge a treatment’s value.

11 Medical Breakthroughs and BreakdownsThat Will Rock the World



Nevertheless, our research has uncovered that Graviola has been shown to kill cancer cells in at least20 laboratory tests. The most recent study, conducted at Catholic University of South Korea, revealedthat two chemicals extracted from Graviola seeds showed comparable results to the chemotherapy drugAdriamycin when applied to malignant breast and colon cells in test tubes.2

Another study, published in the Journal of Natural Products, showed that Graviola is not only com-parable to Adriamycin—but dramatically outperforms it in laboratory tests. Results showed that itselectively killed colon cancer cells at “10,000 times the potency of Adriamycin.”3

Perhaps the most significant result of the studies we’ve researched is that Graviola selectively seeksout and kills cancer cells—leaving all healthy, normal cells untouched. Chemotherapy indiscriminatelyseeks and destroys all actively reproducing cells, even normal hair and stomach cells, causing such dev-astating side effects as hair loss and severe nausea.

Grown and harvested by indigenous people in Brazil, Graviola is available in limited supply in theUnited States and is distributed through Raintree Nutrition. But now, you can be among the select fewin the entire country to benefit from this powerful treatment.

We encourage you to consult with your doctor before beginning any new therapy, especially whentreating cancer. Graviola has been combined with seven other immune-boosting herbs in a productcalled NTense. As a dietary supplement, you should take six to eight capsules of N-Tense per day.

Graviola and N-Tense are completely natural substances with no side effects apart from possiblemild stomach upset at high dosages (in excess of 5 grams) if taken on an empty stomach.

If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, you and your doctor should look into all the available treat-ment options. Graviola could just make all the difference in beating cancer.

SECRET #2Both types of arthritis pain vanishDoctors stunned to find why New Zealand Maori have very little joint diseaseImagine if you didn’t need pain relievers every day? The Health Sciences Institute has uncovered

something totally new—a completely safe and natural food extract that may be the most powerful anti-inflammatory compound ever discovered.

It’s called Lyprinol, an active lipid fraction isolated from the New Zealand green-lipped mussel, orPerna canaliculus. According to centuries-old tradition, native Maoris believe that eating the green-lipped mussel leads to a long and healthy life. And, in fact, medical statistics show that arthritis andrheumatic disorders are unknown among the coastal-dwelling Maori.

Scientists have now determined that the antiarthritic properties of the green-lipped mussel are dueto the unique configuration of certain polyunsaturated fatty acids (or PUFAs) called EicosatetraenoicAcids (ETAs). Related to the Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish, flaxseed, and perilla oil, ETAs displaymore intense and targeted antiinflammatory and anti-arthritic activity than any other known PUFA orOmega-3 fatty acid.

Research in the 1970s and 1980s confirmed that something in the New Zealand green-lipped mussel hadthe ability to erase arthritic pain and stiffness. A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted in 1980 at theVictoria Hospital in Glasgow, England, tested a powdered mussel supplement on 66 arthritis patients.1

At the start of the six-month trial, all of the subjects had failed to respond to conventional treatmentand were scheduled for surgery to repair badly damaged joints. At the close of the trial, the researchersreported improvements in 68 percent of the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and in 39 percent ofthe osteoarthritis (OA) patients. The scientists also noted the low incidence of adverse side effects.

Nearly two decades later scientists perfect the solution

For the next 18 years, leading scientists from universities and research labs in Australia, Japan, andFrance worked together to understand the secret locked within the green-lipped mussel. Step by incre-mental step, the scientists managed to identify the active biological fraction of the green-lipped mussel,isolate it without destroying its essential properties, cleanse it of impurities, stabilize it, and standardizeits potency for reliable results.

At every step of the way, clinical and laboratory studies confirmed that scientists were moving in theright direction. Their excitement mounted as each phase yielded a more potent and powerful compound.

Even early versions of the green-lipped mussel extracts were found to be more effective than aspirinand ibuprofen in reducing inflammation. But inflammation isn’t the only thing it helped. In 1986, atrial of 53 RA patients, conducted by the Societé Française de Biologic et Dietique (SFBD) in Dijon,France, found that the greenlipped mussel extract reduced pain by 62 percent after six months, whilethose on a placebo had a 20 percent increase in pain.2

Lyprinol: 200 times more effective than high potency fish oil in controlling swelling

Ultimately, scientists zeroed in on the ETAs in the green-lipped mussel as the active ingredients




responsible for its remarkable anti-arthritic effects. This specific grouping of ETAs is not found in anyother known substance. The methods used to concentrate these active components in a pure and stableform have been granted patents in several countries. The final result is now available as Lyprinol.

Researchers at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia, studied the efficacy of Lyprinolusing laboratory animals with adjuvant-induced polyarthritis, which is the closest model for rheumatoidarthritis in humans.3 When administered as an oral supplement, Lyprinol reduced arthritis-related swellingin the animal’s paws by more than 90 percent. It was also effective when rubbed directly into the affected area.

Comparisons of Lyprinol to other natural lipids, or fatty acids, known to be helpful in treatingarthritis and inflammation, tested Lyprinol against flax oil, evening primrose oil, Norwegian salmon oil,and MaxEPA (a high potency fish oil product). Of these, Lyprinol was the most effective in preventingarthritis-related swelling, reducing swelling by 79 percent. MaxEPA was the next best at 50 percent.

However, the real story is the 11 dosages used to achieve these results. Achieving a 50 percent effec-tiveness rate required a dosage of 2000 mg/kg body weight of MaxEPA. But the effective dosage ofLyprinol was only 20 mg/kg—or 1/100 the amount. Extrapolations from these results suggest that theanti-inflammatory compounds in Lyprinol are 200 times more potent than MaxEPA (and 350 timesmore potent than evening primrose oil).

Outperforms arthritis drugs without harmful side effects

Researchers also compared the effectiveness of Lyprinol to that of the prescription arthritis drugindomethacin, the mainstream drug of choice at the time of the study. A dosage of 5 mg/kg ofLyprinol was 97 percent effective in reducing swelling, while indomethacin was only 83 percent effec-tive at the same dosage.

Unlike indomethacin, Lyprinol is non-toxic and essentially free of side effects. In a 2000 study,researchers found that when compared to NSAIDs, three Lyprinol was “non-gastro toxic.”4

Recommendations for use

Lyprinol is recommended for the alleviation of inflammatory conditions, including osteoarthritis,rheumatoid arthritis, and virally-induced arthritis. While Lyprinol appears to be the most powerfulanti-inflammatory and arthritis pain reliever yet discovered, it still won’t rebuild or restore previouslydamaged cartilage. For the most complete healing of arthritis, we recommend you combine Lyprinolwith a natural joint building supplement containing glucosamine and chondroitin.

Recommended amounts: The amount needed for optimal results can vary widely for each individual,but range between two and four capsules per day. A higher amount (up to six capsules per day) can beused for the first one to two weeks of use. It can take up to four weeks to evaluate the full benefit. Inaddition, the research suggests that rubbing Lyprinol onto swollen and tender joints can help relievepain and swelling. To do this, simply open the capsule and squeeze the contents onto the affected area.

SECRET #3The “Perfect Cure for Heart Disease”Sugar cane extract rivals popular cholesterol-lowering drugs,without the dangerous side effectsAmid reports of health problems and deaths caused by statin drugs, HSI has learned that an extract

of a commercial crop––sugar cane––can lower cholesterol just as effectively.

As we’ve told our members over the past couple of years, cholesterol isn’t the primary cause of heartdisease...homocysteine levels are. Nevertheless, cholesterol does play an important role in coronaryhealth, and any good program for reversing heart disease must address that as well.

So you can imagine how excited we were when our researchers discovered that a sugar cane extractcould dramatically reduce cholesterol levels. While it’s drawn from the same plant that produces tablesugar, policosanol doesn’t affect blood sugar levels when ingested.

Cuban scientists, however, have discovered that it can have a cholesterol-reducing effect1 withoutcreating the uncomfortable and even dangerous side effects associated with statin drugs.2,3 Statin drugslower elevated cholesterol by limiting cholesterol production in the liver, but they also have side effectsranging from heartburn to potentially fatal cases of muscle breakdown.

This widely prescribed class of drugs–– statin sales topped $14 billion last year––includes the brandnames Lipitor, Lescol, Zocor, Mevacor, Pravachol, Prevastatin, and Baycol (which was recalled afterbeing linked to over 40 deaths). In several studies that compared both cholesterollowering methods,policosanol surpassed the performance of statin-drug therapy.

One Cuban study compared the effects of policosanol to Pravastatin on patients who had elevatedcholesterol levels and were considered to be at high risk for coronary disease. Patients took 10 mg ofeither policosanol or Pravastatin with their dinners for eight weeks. The group taking statins saw theirLDL levels fall by 15.6 percent and their total cholesterol by 11.8 percent. But those in the policosanolgroup exceeded those numbers, and dropped their LDL levels by 19.3 percent and their total choles-terol by 13.9 percent.

The HDL levels of the statin test subjects remained the same,while the policosonal group increased their HDL by 15.7 percent.

Because HDL cholesterol aids in the removal of fat from arterial walls, an increase in these levels isbeneficial. Thousands of people struggle with cholesterol problems, and the chance of developing highcholesterol increases as we age. As we grow older, our hormone levels drop, making it easier for choles-terol levels to rise in our bodies.

Researchers believe policosanol may be a safe method of reducing and regulating LDL. In a clinicaltrial involving 244 post-menopausal women with high cholesterol, researchers first attempted to bringdown elevated lipid levels through six weeks of a standard lipidlowering diet.

When this proved unsuccessful, they gave the women 5 mg of policosanol daily for 12 weeks, then10 mg daily for another 12 weeks. Researchers found that the supplement was effective in significantlylowering LDL levels (25.2 percent) and total cholesterol (16.7 percent). In addition, the women expe-




rienced a 29.3 percent increase in HDL levels.4

Extract relieves painful leg cramps

One of the common––and debilitating––side effects of high cholesterol is a syndrome known asintermittent claudication––a cramping pain in the calves. This is often linked to poor circulation andthe presence of arterial fat deposits (atherosclerosis). Intermittent claudication occurs only during cer-tain times, such as after walking.

Removal of arterial fat deposits has been found to decrease claudication. Researchers at the MedicalSurgical Research Center in Havana, Cuba tested policosanol patients who suffered from moderatelysevere intermittent claudication. In this two-year long study, 56 patients were randomly assigned toreceive either policosanol or a placebo.

Researchers determined if the policosanol was relieving the claudication by conducting treadmillwalking tests on each subject before the study and again on 6, 12, 18, and 24 months after beginningtreatment. Although both test groups showed some progress during the interim tests, the final resultsindicated that policosanol had a significant benefit for sufferers of intermittent claudication. After twoyears of treatment, patients in the placebo group were able to walk a maximum of .15 miles while thegroup taking policosanol could walk .40 miles before having to stop.

The 21 people taking policosanol increased their walking distance by at least 50 percent. Only fivemembers of the placebo group showed a similar improvement.5 And it’s possible that policosanol coulddo more than alleviate the risk of heart disease, circulatory problems, and other ailments commonlyassociated with high cholesterol...

A possible defense against Alzheimer’s

Dora M. Kovacs, Ph.D., a researcher at Massachusetts General Hospital, recently received a$200,000 research grant to study the side effects of cholesterol on the development of Alzheimer’sDisease (AD). She found that even normal levels of cholesterol may increase the risk of senility-causingplaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain, which are associated with the development andprogress of AD.6

Dr. Kovacs’ research is focusing on the development of drugs that inhibit the production of ACAT,an enzyme that enables cholesterol and other lipids (fats) to enter cells and form solid lipid dropletsthere. Those droplets can hinder the normal functioning of the cell. They can also increase amyloidbeta production, which is associated with the progress of mind-robbing plaques and tangles. Whenlipid droplet levels increase, amyloid beta production increases…and so does the risk of Alzheimer’s.

Dr. Kovacs and her research team believe that ACAT-inhibiting drugs are the keys to halting theprocess of cholesterol and lipid buildup that results in AD. But the related research is in its early stages.Dr. Kovacs plans, but has not yet started, to test ACAT inhibitors on mice specially bred to have AD.Other researchers have developed a potentially safe class of ACAT inhibitors to treat atherosclerosis.But it may be another five to 10 years before this family of drugs is thoroughly developed, tested, andmade available to the public.

There may be an alternative therapy available right now, however. In an interview with Emma Hitt,




Ph.D. for the Reuters news service, Dr. Kovacs indicated that several studies have shown that patientswho take statin drugs have lower rates of AD and other types of dementia. Cholesterol lowering statinsdo not appear to hinder the ACAT enzyme, but the act of maintaining low cholesterol levels lowers therisk of dementia.

Since statin drugs can induce serious side effects, policosanol may prove to be a better alternative.In double-blind trials, policosanol produced mild, short-term side effects ––such as insomnia,headache, diarrhea, nervousness, and weight loss––in less than 1 percent of test subjects. So policosanolmay prove to be an efficacious mind-saver as well as a life-saver.

Caution: Researchers warn that policosanol can interact with blood-thinning drugs. So if you trypolicosanol (after consulting your doctor), your dose of blood-thinning medication may have to beadjusted with careful medical monitoring. If you would like to purchase policosanol, see the ProductSource Directory at the end of this report. If you’re already taking cholesterol-lowering drugs or beingtreated for any other health condition, you should consult with your doctor before trying policosanolor discontinuing any prescription drug.Sources:1 Arch Med Res, 29(1):21-4, 19982 Rev Med Chil, 127(3):286-94, 19993 Int J Clin Pharmacol Res, 19(4):117-27, 19994 Gynecol Endocrinol, 14(3):187-95, 20005 Angiology, 52(2):115-25, 20016 www.ahaf.org/alzdis/research/awards_body.htm

SECRET #4Diabetes DefeatedThe botanical breakthrough that’s leaving doctors flabbergastedThis is the story of how one member of the Health Sciences Institute got off insulin in six weeks…

after nine years on prescription drugs! And if only she’d known about this “blood sugar supplement”she could have prevented the whole problem before it ever started!

June was a 56-year-old with diabetes. She had been on insulin and oral prescription medicationsfor nine years when she agreed to test a new natural solution. Within six weeks, she stopped not onlyher insulin but another prescription drug as well.

You read that right: In just six weeks an alternative doctor solved a problem that mainstream medi-cine couldn’t handle in nine years and for thousands of dollars. The fact is that it costs the typical dia-betic around $10,000 a year for treatment. Conventional medicine soaked this woman for maybe$90,000 to treat a medical problem that plant remedies cured in no time at all!

A standard diabetes test showed June went from severely diabetic to healthy in the course of thetreatment. But this diabetes breakthrough almost didn’t happen.

Believe it or not, Jon Barron, the acclaimed researcher who found this remedy, wanted nothing todo with creating a diabetes treatment. He thought it would be a mistake to use herbs and nutrients tomanage the symptoms of diabetes rather than addressing the root cause––mainly the way we eat.

40 Percent of Americans At Risk



http://www.ahaf.org/alzdis/research/awards_body.htm


What changed Jon’s mind was the galloping diabetes epidemic all around us. Nearly 20 millionAmericans already have full-blown diabetes, and up to 40 percent of the rest of us are pre-diabetic.Diabetes is the No. 6 cause of death in the United States, and it’s destined to move up the charts prettyquickly, given the way we eat.

It’s hard to believe, but the average American scarfs down 152 pounds of sugar a year. It’s easy todo, even if you think you’re being careful. For instance, sodas contain as much as a teaspoon of sugarper ounce. There’s sugar in catsup, salad dressing, “organic” cereals...in practically everything. The keyis to balance your blood sugar now—before you get sick.

We take natural supplements for cholesterol and blood pressure. Isn’t it about time for a naturalsolution to diabetes? Jon Barron decided it was...

Seven herbs tackle diabetes seven different ways

We told you we’d tell you about a two-herb combo that packs a punch against diabetes. But it’sactually much better than that… Jon Barron combined a full 7 diabetes-fighting herbs in one amazingsupplement!

Barron came at his solution from a wholly unique angle. Instead of just following the mainstreamapproach, Barron addressed the fact that diabetes was the wrong point of attack. That’s because dia-betes is the symptom of a metabolic problem, not the cause.

So instead of dealing with that end result, Barron developed a formula to help optimize the body’sability to metabolize sugar properly. Before formulating his product, Barron analyzed all the studiesand competing claims for natural diabetes treatments and sugar-regulating formulas.

Ayurvedic medicine (the ancient tradition of India), for example, offers 44 different natural remediesfor diabetes. Other traditions offer dozens more. After much study, Barron narrowed the menu downto six that had the best chance of creating a thorough, root-cause approach to maximizing the body’sability to metabolize sugar.

Then, on the heels of a new discovery, he added the seventh potent ingredient to come up with theideal sugar metabolic enhancement formula. You may have heard of the first two ingredients belowfrom other sources, but you probably can’t name the other five…and that’s where Barron’s uniqueresearch expertise comes in.

The first ingredient is fenugreek. In a recent study, researchers saw a 54% drop in urinary glucoselevels—the test doctors often use to identify diabetics. But to get the most benefit, patients had to eat ahuge amount of fenugreek––a pretty unpleasant undertaking. The stuff tastes terrible (it’s extremelybitter), and comes with some pretty unpleasant side effects (like foul-smelling sweat and urine) whenyou eat a lot of it.

Now a new extract concentrates the active ingredient in fenugreek, making much smaller dosespossible and getting rid of those smelly side effects. In India they call gymnema sylvestre, a traditionalAyurvedic diabetes remedy, “the sugar destroyer.” Here’s why: A protein in the plant makes you loseyour craving for sugar and may actually prevent you from digesting some of the sugar you DO eat.

Plus, gymnema seems to regenerate pancreas cells, allowing your body to produce more insulin. In




an 18-month gymnema study, most test subjects were able to reduce their medication… and some wereable to get rid of drugs altogether. Best of all, no one has reported any adverse side effects of gymnema.Not one.

Konjac mannan is a potent herb you’ve probably never heard of, but it’s been proven effective inclinical trials. In fact, in a 65-day trial, 72 patients with adult-onset diabetes who took konjac saw theirfasting blood sugar levels drop an average of 51.8 percent and their levels after eating drop 84.6 percent!

The nopal cactus (a.k.a. the prickly pear cactus) is just gaining recognition in the natural medicineworld. There’s not a lot of clinical research into its medicinal benefits yet, but several small studies sug-gest that eating nopal leaves with a meal can help contain —even reduce — serum glucose levels.Individuals with type 2 diabetes have experienced a 10 to 20 percent reduction in blood sugar levelsafter eating nopal.

Banaba leaf extract has been shown to lower blood sugar levels in people with Type 2 diabetes byup to 30%. It also helped the people in the trial keep tighter control over glucose fluctuations. Best ofall, banaba appears to encourage weight loss…without any major dietary changes.

Bitter melon contains at least three components that act on blood sugar – and clinical trials con-firm its effectiveness for managing glucose levels.

The final ingredient is a patented cinnamon extract called Cinnulin PF™ which ramps up theoverall effectiveness of the supplement. In fact, Cinnulin PF actually works to make the insulin recep-tor sites on your individual body cells more receptive…and that means your body can use its owninsulin more efficiently.

Barron put all these ingredients together into a highly beneficial supplement he called Glucotor™

v.2. Here are just some of the astounding results seen in six-week Phase I Clinical Trials conductedusing this formula:

� Blood sugar levels dropped by an average 54.4 points

� An average 52% improvement in blood sugar utilization and optimization, meaning thatparticipants’ bodies learned to handle sugar more efficiently

� Improved carbohydrate metabolism (meaning that patients’ metabolic systems handleddietary carbs more effectively) by an average 39%

� An average weight loss of 5.5 pounds

This sugar metabolic enhancement formula, which can help control diabetes from the right angle,is just one great example of how members benefit from being part of the Health Sciences Institute(HSI) network. Thanks to our inside, confidential sources, we were able to follow the development andtesting process and bring this breakthrough to our members as soon as it became available.

To learn more about Glucotor™ v.2, go to the Product Source Directory at the end of this report.A word of caution: If you’re on prescription medications—and even if you aren’t—you need the guid-ance of a qualified health professional before you try this (or any) remedy.




SECRET #5The Return of Polio?Vaccine programs introduced over 50 years ago caused many of us to incubate mutantviruses—including a form of polio for which there is no known cure!Contrary to what you’ve been told, our war with this powerful virus is far from over.

The polio vaccine may have “conquered” polio strains 1 – 3 … but we’ve since identified 69 more strainsof polio. Some cripple…some kill…some merely cause flu-like symptoms and then remain in the bodyfor years…to re-emerge 20 or 30 years later in the form of a mysterious Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

And the polio vaccine itself will help these 69 strains spread even faster!

A biological nightmare

In fact, thanks to the live polio vaccine, we’re about to face an onslaught of bizarre and threateningdiseases. One frightening example is the “mysterious” disease known as Guillain-Barre Syndrom (GBS).

After the introduction of the oral polio vaccine (OPV) in China in 1971, the incidence of poliofell…to be replaced right away by a sharp rise in the cases of GBS.

Researchers from the Second Hospital of Hebel Medical College in China reported that “the wide-spread use of the OPV may have led to…a change in the main epidemic of the polio virus,” and that“the polio virus is an agent in cases diagnosed as Guillain-Barre Syndrome.”1

In other words, instead of wiping out polio…the polio vaccine simply suppressed it in favor of oneof its cousins…another paralyzing virus for which there is no known cure!

And this is just the beginning. Countless more mutations have yet to be discovered.

Is it just chronic fatigue…or the Post-Polio Syndrome?

You…or your children…may have been infected with polio, without knowing it.

Only 10% of all children infected with polio actually contract the virus. The other 90% experiencenothing more than a headache…a fever… mild aches and pains.

But the virus never “goes away.” It simply sits in the body, travels through the bloodstream…and,according to some scientists, resurfaces 20 – 30 years later in the form of Post-Polio Syndrome…other-wise known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS).

The first international scientific conference on the Post-Polio Syndrome, recorded in the Annals ofthe New York Academy of Science, documents the research of 118 specialists, including 6 who have shownthat the virus that causes CFS is genetically related to the virus that causes polio.

In other words, CFS and polio stem from the same family tree of viruses!

Over half a million Americans suffer from CFS, with symptoms that include weakness, pain downthe spine, and other vague, recurring illnesses such as fatigue, allergies and weight loss.

Experts predict Chronic Fatigue Syndrome will be the neurological disease of this century.




This is just one example of the failings of “mainstream” medicine. You can trust the HealthSciences Institute to keep you well informed about the dangers lurking behind every Big Pharma tele-vision ad…and the natural alternatives that could save your life.Source:1 The Lancer, October 8, 1994

SECRET #6The Flu Shot HoaxWhat do health care workers know that you don’t?Ladies and gentlemen, here they are, your 2008-2009 flu vaccines! Afluria, Fluarix, FluLaval,

FluMist, Fluvirin, Fluzone… And these aren’t just some mix of tired old virus strains with maybe onenew strain thrown in. These contain three brand new, never-before-used strains.

That’s right––we’re starting from scratch! (Why? Because last season’s strains were a bust at doingthe thing they were supposed to do…prevent flu). And all would be right with the world if not for anannoying new study the FDA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would probablyrather you not know about.

Mixed signals

“In seniors, flu vaccine was not linked to a reduced risk of pneumonia.” That’s what Michael L.Jackson, lead author of the new study, told HealthDay News. And needless to say, that’s not the sort ofthing FDA and CDC officials want to hear just as they’re gearing up their seasonal fear-promotion ofthe flu shot.

Mr. Jackson’s study shows that any benefit seniors do get from the flu vaccine is most prevalent inyounger, healthier seniors. In other words, those who naturally have healthier immune systems are lesslikely to get the flu. So, is the flu shot actually preventing infection, or would it have been preventedanyway?

Ready for the kicker? Mr. Jackson reports that in his three-year study, which included more than1,170 subjects over the age of 65, the flu vaccine reduced pneumonia risk by a “nonsignificant” 8 per-cent during flu season, but was linked to an INCREASED risk of 4 percent during seasonal peaks.

Now if 8 percent is nonsignificant, then 4 percent is even less significant. But when you're expect-ing the vaccine to offer protection and the opposite turns out to be true, that seems sort of, you know,significant! Should seniors still get the vaccine? Mr. Jackson says…YES! Even though he admits: “Earlierstudies have overestimated how well the vaccine works in reducing complications of influenza.”

What do they know that we don’t know?

The FDA announcement about the 08-09 vaccines contains a surprising detail: Only 40 percent ofhealth care workers in the U.S. get a flu vaccine each year.

Imagine. These are people who have easy access to flu shots. They don’t have to call and make anappointment and then drive to their doctor’s office. And it’s probably available to most of them forfree. And yet six out of 10 say no.




So if the vaccine were truly effective, don’t you think all those nurses and doctors and EMS person-nel would happily take advantage of this easily accessible protection? And yet they don’t. Makes youwonder what they know that we don’t know.

Maybe they simply practice healthy habits that keep immune systems strong, which is the mostlogical way to avoid the flu and other viruses. You can find useful tips for strengthening your immunesystem in the e-Alert “Trying to Reason With Flu Season” (3/13/08).Sources:“FDA Approves 2008-2009 Flu Vaccines” FDA News, 8/5/08, fda.gov“Influenza Vaccination and Risk of Community-Acquired Pneumonia in Immunocompetent Elderly People” Lancet, Vol. 372, No. 9636, 8/2/08, thelancet.com“Flu Vaccine Doesn't Protect Seniors From Pneumonia” HealthDay News, 7/31/08, nlm.nih.gov

SECRET #7The single-ingredient formula rivaling a major class of blood pressure drugsBut it’s more than a little fishy…In many cases, you can control your blood pressure with some simple diet and lifestyle changes.

But unfortunately sometimes drugs are necessary. Necessary because some cases of dangerously highblood pressure stay that way no matter what you do to try to lower them.

And unfortunately because the only drugs that seem to work come with a nasty list of side effects.So we always keep an eye out for natural hypertension alternatives for those of you who need thathelping hand. The latest one to cross our desks is called Vasotensin, a product formulated from a singleingredient that appears to rival one of the leading classes of hypertension drugs—but without thepotential risks.

Japanese fish alleviates hypertension

Vasotensin is made from a substance called bonito peptides. That’s it—one ingredient. But themanufacturer, Metagenics, claims that bonito peptides have been shown to have such significant effec-tiveness as a single ingredient that there’s no need to add any others.

So what exactly are bonito peptides? Well, in general, peptides are short chains of amino acids.Specifically, bonito peptides are amino acid chains isolated and extracted from the bonito fish, which isa member of the tuna and mackerel family.

Bonito peptides have been shown to inhibit Angiotension Converting Enzyme (ACE) activity. ACEspurs the formation of angiotensin II—a potent compound responsible for blood vessel constriction.ACE also has a negative effect on a substance called kinin, which lowers blood pressure by relaxingblood vessels. So, in other words, bonito peptides seem to slow down the process responsible for highblood pressure.1

But we almost never heard about it. It turns out that this discovery was a case of one man’s (well, inthis case, one industry’s) trash being another’s treasure.

Fish food finds its way to the research lab

They type of bonito peptides used in Vasotensin are actually a by-product of the Katsubushi manu-facturing process. Katsuobushi is a traditional Japanese seasoning that has been used in soups and other




dishes for over 1,500 years, and it’s made from the flesh of the bonito fish.

To get a better understanding of how the Katsuobushi industry is connected to Vasotensin, it helpsto know a bit about how Katsuobushi is processed. The Reader’s Digest version goes something like this:The fish meat is heat-treated in water and stirred. The result is the seasoning and the remaining residue.

Yet it is from this residue (typically discarded or used as organic fertilizer) we get this promisingcompound––because one creative (and curious) researcher, Dr. Masaaki Yoshikawa of Kyoto University,decided to take another look at its potential. He discovered that this part of the bonito fish’s musclehas strong ACE-inhibiting properties.

Apparently, through careful purification and separation, nine active bonito peptides have beenidentified and sequenced. But you can’t get the anti-hypertensive response by simply eating the eatingthe bonito fish itself or by eating Katsuobushi. As Dr. Yoshikawa’s research uncovered, there are actuallynine specific active peptides that contribute to bonitos’ ACE-inhibiting effects.

The research HSI found focused on two of them, one called LKPNM and one called LKP. On itsown, LKPNM only slightly inhibits ACE. But when ACE interacts with LKPNM it gets is convertedinto the peptide LKP, ACE-inhibitory activity of LKP is eight times higher than LKPNM. This uniqueproperty gives it a longer sustainable effect––accidentally skipping a dose would not produce a quickspike of blood pressure.

But in order to be “activated”, these peptides are dependent on specific enzymatic reactions. Theproblem is, our bodies don’t produce the right enzymes to separate the active parts from the rest of thefish, so the only way to get those blood pressure lowering benefits from the bonito peptides is to havethem separated from the fish for you. In other words, you need to take a supplement like Vasotensin toget the ACE-inhibiting effect.

Limited—but promising—results

In a human study out of Japan researchers tested the antihypertensive effects of bonito peptidesagainst a placebo in 61 borderline and mildly hypertensive subjects for 10 weeks. For the first half ofthe trial, 31 subjects (group 1) took 1.5 grams per day of a bonito peptide mixture. The other 30 sub-jects (group 2) received a placebo. In the second five-week period, the order was reversed: Group 1subjects took the placebo and group 2 subjects received the bonito peptide mixture. During both phas-es, the placebo group failed to show any significant decrease in blood pressure.

And researchers reported that the anti-hypertensive activity was demonstrated without any sideeffects.2 We also managed to get our hands on a study that showed how bonito peptides stack up tomainstream hypertension drugs. In this study, researchers examined the anti-hypertensive activity ofLKP, LKPNM, and Captopril (a common prescription ACE-inhibitor) in rats.

The group fed LKP showed an immediate response, but the blood pressure started to go back upafter two hours. But in the group fed LKPNM, the anti-hypertensive effect was almost the same asCaptopril. And the effects lasted over six hours.3

The bottom line on Vasotensin is it has potential. Even though the majority of testing seems tohave been done by the manufacturing lab in small, short-term studies, all results were positive and




showed no bad reactions. Of course, you should keep in mind that it is an ACE-inhibitor, and withthese types of products there is always a possibility of potassium buildup and kidney problems.

So even though Vasotensin is a natural ACE-inhibitor, you still need to work closely with your doc-tor to regularly monitor your potassium and blood pressure levels, as well as your kidney function. Thedosage recommendation is two tablets twice daily with meals.

SECRET #8Stop cancer in its tracks with killer grapefruitAn 86% cure rate for hopeless cancer patientsYears ago, HSI published information on MCP’s unique ability to stop cancer cells from spreading

––or metastasizing––to other parts of the body. But, like many of the products and therapies we coverin our Members Alert reports, at the time, MCP was showing exciting enough results for us to want tobring it to our members right away, but it was also still too new to have much research behind it.

Now, though, there’s new research emerging on MCP, confirming its anti-cancer abilities––andshedding some light on just how it achieves these effects. It turns out it’s another example of glycobiol-ogy, the revolutionary new research field. And this real-life application of that cutting-edge theory isalready demonstrating significant results in animal and human trials, against some of the most com-mon––and deadly––kinds of cancer, like prostate, breast, colon, and lung.

Targeting cancer’s “getaway car”

MCP comes from pulp and rinds of citrus fruits, like oranges and grapefruits, that have been modi-fied so that they produce shorter sugar chains. These shorter sugar chains are more readily absorbedthrough the intestinal tract into the bloodstream, where they can do some pretty amazing things––particularly against cancer cells.

Sugar chains, or glycans, are critical to cellular communications. They bind to molecules on cellsurfaces called carbohydrate-binding proteins (CBPs) or lectins and pass along all sorts of information.In this case, the sugar chains in MCP seem to target one very specific lectin called galectin-3 that playsan important role in cancer development. Studies have repeatedly shown elevated levels of galetin-3 incancerous tissues as compared to healthy tissues.

The galectin-3/cancer link has been found in many forms of cancer, including thyroid cancer, gastriccancer, pituitary cancer, breast cancer, and colorectal cancer.1-6 Galectin-3 plays a role in a variety of biologicalfunctions related to cancer, including tumor cell adhesion, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and metastasis.7

Scientists think that galectin-3 accomplishes all of this in two different ways, each utilizing one endof its protein molecule structure. One end, called the C-terminal end, binds carbohydrate molecules on




other cells, allowing cancer cells to adhere to each other and to healthy cells. This process allows cancerto spread, or metastasize.

The opposite end of the galectin-3 molecules is called the N-terminal. When a specific amino acidcalled serine binds to the galectin-3 molecule in a certain position on the N-terminal end, it triggers aseries of biochemical reactions that protect the cancer cell from death, or apoptosis.

Scientists believe this is a two-pronged defense: The galectin-3 kills off immune system cells thatare attempting to attack the cancer cells, and it also forms a protective barrier around the cancer cells,shielding them from the effects of anti-cancer drugs and treatments like chemotherapy or radiation.8,9

MCP clogs the cancer-growth pipeline

So what does all of this have to do with some grapefruit pulp? MCP’s sugar molecules block theprotein’s ability to bind to carbohydrates on other cancer cells and on healthy tissues by binding to thegalectin-3 carbohydrate receptor sites at the C-terminal end themselves. With their binding sites allclogged up, cancer cells can’t clump together and can’t metastasize by adhering to other areas. It’s a per-fect example of the sugar chain anti-adhesive properties.

But some scientists think there may be even more to MCP’s effects on cancer cells. I spoke withStephen Strum, M.D., a medical oncologist and researcher who co-authored a study on the effects ofMCP on galectin-3. He suggests that “parking” MCP sugar chains in galectin-3’s C-terminal may alsoturn off its N-terminal protective response, making cancer cells even more vulnerable.

Dr. Strum explained the theory this way: Imagine galectin-3 molecule’s two terminals are like a see-saw. When one end is up, the other end is down; when one end is activated, the other is turned off.That would mean that when MCP’s sugar chains bind at the C-terminal end, the protective effect thegalectin-3 affords the cancer cell at the N-terminal end would be turned off. More research is neededto validate this theory, but it highlights another exciting area of research into galactin-3 and the poten-tial of MCP against cancer.

Slow tumor growth––even kill cancer cells

While we may need more data to validate the seesaw theory, there is plenty of research demonstrat-ing MCP’s ability to halt or slow cancer development. There have been several significant animal andlaboratory studies demonstrating MCP’s potential to stop or slow metastases and even kill cancer cells.

In one study, mice were fed MCP in their drinking water and then injected with human breastcancer cells or human colon cancer cells. In all cases, MCP effectively inhibited tumor growth, sponta-neous metastasis and angiogenesis, the process by which cells develop new blood vessels. In the breastcancer portion of the study, the tumor volume in mice treated with MCP was less than 1/3 of that ofuntreated mice. And none of the MCP treated mice developed lung metastases, while 66 percent of theuntreated mice had tumors on their lungs at the end of the study.

The researchers found similar results in the mice injected with colon cancer cells. The primary tumorsof MCP treated mice were half the size of those in untreated mice. All of the untreated mice developedmetastases in the lymph nodes, and 60 percent developed metastases in the liver. But only 25 percent ofthe MCP treated mice developed cancer in the lymph nodes and none showed signs of cancer in the liver.10




As far back as 1995, scientists saw similar results in rats injected with human prostate cancer cellsand treated with MCP. Nearly all of the untreated rats (15 out of 16) developed lung metastases in 30days, while only 50 percent of the MCP treated rats (seven out of 14) developed lung metastases. Morethan half of the untreated rats also developed lymph node tumors, while only 13 percent of the MCPtreated rats had metastases in the lymph nodes.11

Effective cancer therapy with no serious side effects

It’s an impressive body of evidence. The results seen in these studies rival the effects of many pre-scription cancer drugs. But what makes MCP even better is that it doesn’t appear to have any danger-ous side effects or interactions. Fewer than 5 percent of people who take MCP report some flatulenceor loose stools, due to its soluble fiber content. This can usually be managed by reducing the dose andslowly working back up to the recommended level. But compared to the toxic side effects of most con-ventional cancer treatments, these problems are very minor.

Again, it’s important to use modified citrus pectin (MCP)––not just regular citrus pectin––toobtain these results; studies have shown that only MCP has the ability to inhibit cancer cell adhesionand impact galectin-3 activity.12 In fact, nearly all of the research on MCP’s effects has been conduct-ed with the same formula.

It’s called PectaSol, and it’s manufactured by EcoNugenics of Santa Rosa, California. PectaSol wasdeveloped by Isaac Eliaz, M.D., M.S.. It’s identical to the MCP used in many of the studies citedabove. PectaSol is available in capsules or in powder form; according to Dr. Eliaz, most people preferthe powder form because the recommended daily dosage is quite high. To achieve the recommendeddose of 14.4 g per day you’d have to take six capsules three times a day. You can achieve the samedosage by dissolving 5 grams of powder in water or juice three times a day.

If you’re fighting cancer, talk to your doctor about adding modified citrus pectin to your treatmentplan. It may help your body respond better to the treatments you’re already undergoing. Or it may justgive your body the extra boost it needs to help fight the disease on its own. Either way, it’s a valuableaddition to any anti-cancer arsenal.

SECRET #9Placebo Pills: More Than Just SugarThe importance of being inertAfter more than four decades of testing in tandem with other drugs, placebo gained approval for

prescription use from the Food and Drug Administration Monday.

“For years, scientists have been aware of the effectiveness of placebo in treating a surprisingly widerange of conditions,” said Dr. Jonathan Bergen of the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.“It was time to provide doctors with this often highly effective option.”




Those two paragraphs are the opening of a satirical report fabricated by the staff of The Onion, ahumorous “news” website. (For the entire spoof, see the HSI e-alert “Wonder Drug” from 10/23/04 atwww.hsibaltimore.com.) The sly joke here, of course, is that placebos used in clinical trials are com-pletely inert — just “sugar pills.”

Right?

Most people would never think to question the contents of a placebo. After all, everyone knowsthat placebos have no active ingredients. But if a placebo could talk, it would respond just like any conman caught with his hand in your pocket: “Who ME? Would I lie to you?”

Sugar coating

There was a time when doctors sometimes prescribed phony medication to their patients who theyregarded as hypochondriacs. They called the pills “placebo” (a Latin word meaning “I shall please”),and when the patients reported positive results the concept of the placebo effect was born.

These days, placebo pills are used in clinical trials to measure the true effect of a drug or supple-ment. They are thought to be made of inert substances designed to have no effect. But consider this:there’s no such thing really as an inert substance.

For instance, placebo pills are commonly called sugar pills. But is sugar inert? Far from it, ofcourse. If you take a sugar pill, your body will have a reaction, especially if you happen to have aninsulin disorder. But if you’re given that same pill as part of a drug research trial, your reactionbecomes a factor in the research.

That may seem like nothing (what real difference could a tiny boost of sugar make?), but a littlesugar is not the issue here. Far from it.

A dirty little secret

When a pharmaceutical company tests a product in a placebo-controlled trial, where do you sup-pose they get placebo pills? Do they place an order with a placebo pill manufacturer? Or does Nestle’scandy company run a side business that supplies researchers with sugar pills?

The fact is, drug companies make their own placebo pills for research purposes, and for each indi-vidual study they create a unique placebo formula — sometimes including ingredients that matchingredients in the drugs being tested. But the contents of placebos are never revealed.

Does that sound “inert” or “inactive” to you? Suddenly the idea of a “sugar pill” doesn't seem soinnocent anymore.

Before conducting human trials for drugs, pharmaceutical companies are often fully aware of manyof the side effects of the products they’re testing. So, for instance, if a drug is known to cause dizzinessand nausea, the drug company running the test may want the placebo to have the same side effects.And they have an explanation for this. They say the placebo should mimic the drug being tested sothat the control group of the experiment will have side effects similar to the placebo group. Withoutthat, they claim, the results of a blind study would be compromised.



http://www.hsibaltimore.com


There are plenty of gray areas to debate in that logic, but for the moment let’s focus on the idea ofwhat they call an “active placebo,” designed to mimic the side effects of a tested drug. And with that inmind let’s look at an advertising campaign for a popular allergy medication. In the TV ads, when themoment arrives to list the side effects, the voice-over says, “The most common side effects — includingheadache, drowsiness, fatigue and dry mouth — occurred about as often as they did with a sugar pill.”

A sugar pill? Really? Just what kind of “sugar pill” were the researchers using that caused headache,drowsiness, fatigue and dry mouth? Sounds like a sugar pill with a little something added. But theywant you to believe that this medication will produce side effects no more serious than what you’d getwith a TicTac.

Inertia standardized

Dr. Beatrice Golomb, MD, PhD, is an assistant professor of medicine at the University ofCalifornia, San Diego, and has been actively fighting the research establishment's claim that placebosare inactive substances. Dr. Golomb wants scientists to provide a list of placebo ingredients so trialresults can be properly evaluated.

To level the playing field, Dr. Golomb suggests that drug companies start divulging all placeboingredients. She also recommends that standardized placebos should be developed so that side effectswill be uniform and predictable. This would go a long way toward eliminating the pharmaceuticalindustry's cynical manipulation of test data.

As you might suspect, the drug companies are not very receptive to Dr. Golomb's idea of letting goof this aspect of product testing that they have full control over.

Meanwhile, what about physicians and researchers who work independently from the pharmaceuticalgiants — do they know the truth about placebos supplied by drug companies? Right now it’s hard to telljust how widespread this knowledge is. According to the National Center for Complementary andAlternative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the placebo effect is defined as “desirablephysiological or psychological effects attributable to the use of inert medications.” From that statement itwould appear that the NIH either believes that placebos are genuinely inactive, or they’re not saying.

Or maybe they’re just feeling drowsy, dizzy, irritable and nauseous from a sugar pill someone gave them.Source:Chemistry and Industry, Vol. 21, Pg. 900, 1995

SECRET #10Rub out your pain on contactFinally, freedom from the pain cycleArthritis...backache…sore muscles…aching joints…sprains…strains. As we get older, it seems as if

pain becomes a constant companion. Just getting out of a chair can become challenging, let aloneenjoying simple pleasures like gardening and strolling through the park.

Taking aspirin helps, but it can eventually tear up your stomach. And prescription drugs have sideeffects that only compound the underlying problem. About 50 percent of the population is suffering




from occasional aches and pain.1

Most medical schools don’t teach pain relief

Mainstream medicine is finally becoming aware of the need to relieve pain. Hospitals now havepain-management teams. Palliative care—a relatively new medical specialty—was developed to addresspain relief. Pain centers are also opening across the country as more and more people look for relief.But they all concentrate on mainstream “cures”— drugs and surgery, which are rife with uncomfortableand even life-threatening side effects.

Unfortunately, doctors aren’t receiving much training in medical school about pain intervention.According to a survey of oncology surgeons, 90 percent of respondents said they received 10 hours orless of medical-school education on palliative care and 79 percent said they received no more than 10hours of instruction in palliative care during their surgical residency.2

Healed injuries can continue to flare up over time

Effective pain management is a complex issue, because your body responds with all its defenses toprotect and heal an injury. When you injure yourself, your body sends protective fluids, such as hista-mine, bradykinin, prostaglandin, and substance P, to surround and heal the area. But they can also irri-tate the injury over time.

Another problem associated with pain is referred to as the “snowball effect.” This is the result ofpain caused by injury and inflammation, which in turn causes distress and, as a result, continued painand inflammation. This cyclic pattern snowballs and results in discomfort even after the original injuryhas been healed. While you may have done everything possible to heal an injury for good, that doesn’tmean the hurt will leave once your injury has healed. Most people can relate to occasional flare upsfrom past injuries, or subsequent pulled muscles or aching backs that come from trying to compensatefor the original injury.

Putting a stop to the pain cycle

Finding a way to stop the pain cycle has been a goal of Health Sciences Institute panelist JonBarron. Recently, he teamed up with Ron Manwarren of Royal Botanicals in the development of aunique topical pain reliever that is safe and completely free of the side effects of dangerous pharmaceu-tical pain killers.

While Barron was refining an all-natural transport system that would send herbal extracts throughthe skin, Manwarren had just finished formulating a healing oil based on traditional herbs— butlacked a botanical-based foundation to transport it. When Manwarren brought his new formula toBarron, their combined efforts resulted in a formula available in a product called Soothanol X2.

While over-the-counter topical products commonly contain one, two, or three painrelieving sub-stances, such as methyl salicylate, menthol, and camphor, Soothanol X2 has 10 proven painkillers.Because Soothanol X2 is an easyspreading and potent liquid, only a few drops are needed. Soothingpain relief is delivered on contact.

In fact, we tested it informally here at the Health Sciences Institute Baltimore office. The scented




ingredients in Soothanol X2 are mild—contrary to the overpowering smells of most over-the-counterproducts. Although cayenne can deliver a warming or hot sensation, much of that sensation dependson the type of injury you’re treating and your sensitivity to cayenne. Of the five people who tested oursample bottle here in the office, one commented that he felt an uncomfortable amount of heat.Because a little goes a long way, the cost per application is extremely economical.

“Cancerwas killingme,butwithHSI’s helpNOWTHEYCALLMETHEMIRACLEMAN!”

Dear Friend:

I was the worse case of leukemia the Mayo Clinic had seen in 20years. My whole immune system had shut down. My left leg turned black. I wentthrough chemotherapy and whatever else they gave me, but nothing worked very well.My blood counts were very bad and I went home weighing 80 pounds less.

I needed a miracle. And that’s when one reallyhappened...

A booklet arrived in the mail from HEALTH SCIENCES INSTITUTE.

As soon as I took the treatment HSI told me about, my blood counts started im-proving! I got better and better. Gained back the 80 pounds I lost and then some. Ifelt great.

My oncologist at the Mayo Clinic could hardly believe what he saw.

Right then and there they started calling me THE MIRACLE MAN. It was 5 years agoand I’m still cancer-free.

Sincerely,

Lee Bowden, Vero Beach, Florida
