Toxins in Breakfast Cereal by Doug Kaufman

I honestly don’t know who coined the adage that breakfast was the most important meal, but if it is, you might rethink making cereal as the “go to” food for breakfast.

In 2011, author Jaime A. Heidel posted an article online, with the very catchy headline, Your Breakfast Cereal Is Killing You. Knowing that fungal mycotoxins grow on cereal grains, I had to agree with the headline. But the word “fungus” and “mycotoxins” were not even printed in the article. Rather, Heidel made the reader aware that MSG, and BHA and Fructose and several other questionable ingredients were often found in breakfast cereal.

Are you confused about what you’ve been told about Neuropathy?  

Let's clear up the terms.

You might be confused by all the names that are given to “Neuropathy”. I want to clear some of this up.

The main thing to understand is that neuropathy is nerve damage. You can call it by the area affected or by the cause of the nerve damage, but it is still the same thing – nerve damage.  

In the age we live in there are lots of ways to damage the body, and the nerves. The toxic chemicals in the environment, the food we eat with all its additives, preservatives and processing as well as many of the drugs that are so readily given to treat health problems are all causes of nerve damage. There are also many diseases that cause neuropathy as well as trauma that come from not only accidents but surgery.

For a full list of these causes, you can read:

Causes & Risk Factors of Neuropathy.

Neuropathy is also named by the type of damage:

Types of Neuropathy Damage:

There are many names given to the type of neuropathy depending on the nerve involved:

Focal neuropathy – this means that only one (or at most a few) nerves are injured. The pain, numbness and/or weakness are confined to a single limb or a small area of the body or the head. They are usually caused by compression or trauma. Basically, one nerve gets damaged. The best known of these is carpal tunnel syndrome where the median nerve is damaged by compression of that nerve.

Mononeuropathy – Another term for only one nerve being affected.

Generalized neuropathies – these are associated with general medical problems – infections, diabetes, immune, nutritional related, drug induced, etc. Again, the nerves get damaged. In this case it can start with one nerve and spread, or it can affect many nerves depending on the cause of the neuropathy.

Polyneuropathies – another name for generalized neuropathy

Axonal neuropathy – this is a technical term for the microscopic part of the nerve that is damaged. If you think of a wire you have the inner core of the wire and the insulation around it. The core of the “wire” is called axon. 

Demyelinating – again if we think of a wire, the nerve is surrounded by a fatty tissue called myelin. This is similar to the plastic insulation around an electrical wire. When the medical doctor calls your neuropathy demyelinating, it means that the myelin sheath around the nerve is breaking down. The way that medical doctors determine if it is demyelinating or axonal is to do a nerve conduction studies (NCS) which can distinguish between these two types.

Small Fiber Neuropathy - Nerve Endings Damage – this is when the very ends of the nerves are damaged.

Special “types” of Neuropathy:

Hereditary Neuropathy – When it is considered inherited. Charcot Marie Tooth is considered hereditary.

Idiopathic Neuropathy – When they can’t figure out what the cause is.

The following types of Neuropathy are actually the area that is affected. In each type of neuropathy you can have a sensory nerve damaged or a motor nerve damaged. Sensory nerves damage creates pain, numbness, tingling, etc. Motor nerves create the inability of the body to send messages to the muscles and thus you get weakness and sometimes even drop foot. 

Autonomic – affects the autonomic system – glands, internal organs, etc.

Cranial – affects the head

Diabetic amyotrophy – weakness on both sides of the body, blood vessel disease may be the cause.

Femoral Neuropathy develops in the front of one thigh, with muscle weakness and wasting.

Optic – affects the eyes

Thoracic/Lumbar Radiculopathy occurs in the torso. Affects a band of the chest or abdominal wall on one or both sides.

Unilateral Foot Drop – damage to the peroneal nerve – trauma injury.

Hope this clears up any confusion you might have had with all the names being used to describe “neuropathy”.

GMOs, Does it Impact your health?

Health practitioners have begun to prescribe non-GMO organic diets to their patients (and they’re seeing great results!).

You have heard me say many times, that it is the total of environmental toxins we are exposed to every day that has overwhelmed our immune system and is the primary spark in developing autoimmune disease. There is absolutely no question to this fact. The accumulation of environmental toxins eventually overwhelm our immune systems and the primary result is the development of autoimmune mechanisms. And we’ve all heard about eating ‘organic’. But what else? What other ‘base hits’ can we do every day to protect ourselves and our families?

A select group of doctors and scientists have explored this. We have begun to create protocols and products to counteract the damage linked to GMOs

Bleeding Gums & Gum Disease

Healthy gums are pink and do not bleed.

What is gum disease?  

It's called Gingivitis   

Gingivitis is characterized by gum redness, changes in the gum, and bleeding. It is essentially painless. 

It is created when plague (sticky deposits of bacteria, mucus and food particles) adheres to the teeth, hardens and irritates the gum.

The accumulation of this plague causes the gums to become infected and swollen. As the gums swell, pockets form between the gums and the teeth and act as a trap for more plague.  Irritated gums bleed and eventually start to recede. 

This irritation can be fought by introducing Vitamin C which fights the formation of plaque.  

What to do about gum disease problems:

Gum problems need to be addressed before they get worse and become periodontal disease. Periodontal disease can create loose teeth and a lot of health problems.

This is due to the bacteria that comes along with too much plague. 

The key dietary recommendation on gum problems is to avoid sugar.  Sugar is known to significantly increase plaque accumulation by depleting Vitamin C.  Sugar destroys Vitamin C.

Phase out soft drinks.  Canned soda contains excess phosphorus, a mineral that could lead to the leeching of calcium from your bones. Calcium is first robbed not from your hips or spine but from you jaw leading to tooth loss.

Deficiencies of vitamin C, bioflavonoids, calcium, folic acid, or niacin is related and can make it worse 

Anything that improves health overall and the body's ability to build health will affect the mouth positively. 

Helpful Nutrition:

Fresh fruits, and vegetables, and fiber should be the mainstay of the menu.  Vegetables & fruits enhance enzyme function. Fermented dairy products, such as yogurt help maintain intestinal health.   Calcium is gotten from food.  Calcium is easier for the body to digest via vegetables. 

Vitamin C is one nutrient that has a very positive effect on the mouth. Vitamin C is vital for production of collagen, the basic protein building block for the fibrous framework of all the tissues, including gums. 

Vitamin C strengthens weak gum tissue and makes the gum lining more resistant to penetration by bacteria. 

Our Suggestion: A good form of Vitamin C that is easy for the body to use as it is whole food nutrition (food based). This RHP® Vitamin C should be taken per directions or twice the recommended for gum problems.  For more info   (This really is a different type of C)

Calcium is needed to restore any deficiencies which can result in periodontal disease.  Periodontal disease and gum disorders are forms of osteoporosis of the mouth.  

It is essential to stop using or consuming items that cause calcium to become deficient and or toxic.  This includes products such as ice cream, fruit yogurt, tea, coffee, cigarettes and aluminum.

But calcium to be used needs other nutrients.  Read about the Bone Support Formula.

Natural Toothpaste for Gum problems

The major cause of all gum, tooth and breath problems are the overproduction of plaque bacteria and pathogens in the mouth... a solution would be stopping this bacteria from forming while at the same time being almost impossible to wash away, this would be an extremely successful solution.

The Pro Dental 7 liquid is easy to apply and takes up only two minutes of your day (it can be worked in to your normal tooth-brushing routine).  There is a 100% satisfaction money back guarantee. So you can try it out and see the results for yourself.

The creator of Pro Dental 7 says this:

I started researching countless books and websites when one day I came across an important document I found in an old medical journal; it explained how certain plant extracts could completely kill multiple strains of bacteria in the mouth, in under 30 seconds... I excitedly ordered all the extracts and immediately began my experiments!

After about 5-6 weeks of formulating different solutions, I'd finished, I'd created an extremely powerful solution that would potentially kill the all harmful bacteria and penetrate deep down inside the gum tissue... I also made sure the solution wasn't water soluble (unlike all the other products I'd tried in the past) so it wouldn't wash away!

I brushed my teeth with the new solution and 'WOW' my entire mouth felt great; after just 2 weeks of use I was amazed; my gum infection had cleared up nicely ...

But that's when I noticed something else had happened, something quite special; my teeth were gleaming white, my bad breath was gone, and my gums looked healthy.

Vitamin C & Pain

There are many different kinds of pain that can occur in the human body. Evidence suggests that Vitamin C may help relieve pain and improve quality of life.

You can read more here: The role of vitamin C in the treatment of pain: new insights
(PubMed Central, US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health)

The human body does not manufacture the vitamin C it needs. The only way you can acquire the vitamin C you need is through your diet and/or supplementation.

Most of the vitamin C sold in the US is ascorbic acid by itself.

Camu camu is one of the highest known sources of natural vitamin C. Research indicates camu camu contains up to 56 times more vitamin C than a lemon and 50 times more vitamin C than an orange.

RHP Vitamin C contains only organic camu camu extract, a real food source of vitamin C, that is highly bioavailable because it literally is a food!

It is vitamin C in a whole food extract which contains bioflavonoids, protein and all the other food factors that enables the body to absorb, retain and utilize this vitamin C much more efficiently.
