Gaeta Seminars Cancer Support PreventionThe
Wholistic Perspective

• Everyone has cancer cells in their body all the
  time. In normal
• health, the body keeps their development in
  check.
• Only when the immune system is relatively weak
  enough
• can cancer cells multiply and spread.
• Your body/immune system is the only thing that
  can address
• the cancer pattern.
• We do not treat the cancer.
• We support the optimal function of the whole
  person physically,
• mentally, emotionally, spiritually and
  relationally.
• This allows the persons own system to address
  the cancer
• as well as it potentially can.

Five Causes of Health

• 1. Expressing a positive, creative spirit
• - love, truth, compassion, peace, integrity,
  courage
• 2. Healthy, loving relationships
• 3. Whole-food diet supplements
• 4. Moving the body
• 5. Adequate rest (physical mental)

PreventionCancer Contributing Factors

• Two Global Factors
• 1. Immune Deficiency from poor diet (esp.
  refined sugar), stress, overwork, insufficient
  rest, vaccinations, pancreatic insufficiency,
  etc.
• 2. Toxicity from food, e.g. pesticide- and
  chemical-laden foods
• air, water noise pollution, smoking
• Other Mutagenic Factors pharmaceutical drugs, GM
  foods,
• carcinogenic food additives sweeteners,
  xenoestrogens,
• family history (5 of cases)

13

PreventionCancer Treatment Principles

• Core Principle The only lasting treatment for
  the cancer pattern is the persons own immune
  system
• Pillars of Treatment
• 1. Detoxify whole foods diet, exercise, SP
  Purification Program, reduce meds chemical
  exposure, stop smoking
• 2. Improve Immune Function nutrient-dense foods,
  exercise, nutritional herbal medicine
• 3. Heal the Life Pattern Use the illness as a
  motivation for healing, change and
  transformation make amends for any past wrongs
  heal present and past relationships face and let
  go of any guilt or shame around the illness they
  are not a failure for getting sick

PreventionWholistic Treatment Diet

• Whole foods diet
• ? Avoid refined CHO, fats, sugars, alcohol, etc.
• ? Avoid chemical additives sweeteners, e.g.
  MSG, aspartame, etc.
• ? Minimally-processed food
• ? Organic, seasonal, locally-grown foods
• ? Low-grain diet (best grains brown rice,
  quinoa, millet)
• ? Avoid the big three allergens gluten,
  industrial dairy and soy
• ? Plenty of water, fresh fruits veggies, good
  fats, good protein

PreventionWhat About Vitamin D?

• The mechanisms by which vitamin D reduces the
  risk of cancer are
• fairly well understood. They include enhancing
  calcium absorption
• (in the case of colorectal cancer) Lamprecht and
  Lipkin, 2003,
• inducing cell differentiation, increasing cancer
  cell apoptosis or
• death, reducing metastasis and proliferation, and
  reducing
• angiogenesis van den Bemd and Chang, 2002. In
  addition,
• 25(OH)D downregulates parathyroid hormone (PTH)
  Chapuy et al.,
• 1987. Since IGF-I stimulates tumor growth and
  high quantities are
• a consequence of the standard American diet
  Grant, 2002a 2004,
• vitamin D can be considered one partial antidote
  to the American
• diet. - Joseph Mercola, DO

16
Gaeta Seminars Cancer Support PreventionHow
Much Sunlight?

• Vitamin D experts generally recommend daily
  exposure
• of 10-15 minutes (or 20-25 minutes three times
  per
• week over 40 of the body, without sunscreen.
• - Natural Solutions, Fall 2007
• Responsible, routine sun exposure will save 10
  lives
• from non-skin cancers for every one skin cancer
  death.
• - Cedric Garland, PhD, professor, Univ. of
  Californias
• School of Medicine Moores Cancer Center
• UVB is a protective to a total of 16 types of
  cancer,
• primarily epithelial (pertaining to the surface)
  cancers
• of the digestive and reproductive systems.

Gaeta Seminars Cancer Support PreventionThe
Enzyme Approach

• Lineage John Beard, MD, England, 1902
• FL Morse, MD, St Louis, 1920s
• William Kelley, DDS, 1960s
• Nicholas Gonzalez, MD, New York, 1987
• All have had great success, far greater than any
  conventional
• treatment. The success of this approach has been
  well-documented
• and supported by lab findings and long-term
  clinical follow-ups.
• 2. Enzyme/Digestive
• Zypan 2/meal
• Okra-Pepsin 2/meal plus 2-3 bedtime
• Multizyme 2/meal plus 6 at bedtime

19
Gaeta Seminars Cancer Support PreventionThe
Enzyme Approach 2

• Mechanism of Action
• Unknown. Gonzalez proposes that the enzymes
• probably attack the proteins on (cancer) cell
  membranes.
• They knock them out so that the cells cant
  communicate
• and cant survive. Its like theyre blinded. We
  think thats
• what it is. No one knows. We know they work the
  human
• and animal studies show they work even in
  aggressive
• laboratory models of cancer in mice, but we
• dont know the mechanism.

PreventionIndividual Collective Transformation

• 1. The world around only reflects the state of
  human
• consciousness.
• 2. The way to heal the world is for human
• consciousness to be restored to wholeness,
• and therefore become a means for creative
  action.
• 3. The way to restore human consciousness is to
• allow ones own consciousness to be transformed,
  
• or cleared of self-centeredness and the illusion
  
• of separation. Changing the world is an inside
  job first.

23
No one can be healed until he becomes,
consciously or unconsciously, an open window for
the healing radiance into the world as a whole.
When the ailing one can turn his attention away
from his own ill condition, and regardless of his
own suffering, look with loving compassion and
understanding upon others, beholding the
perfection within them whereby they are made
whole, he lets the creative flame of his own
Master-Self within perform the perfect work of
healing in and through his own body and mind, and
thereby is he made whole. Only to the
degree that one is open can one receive and be a
channel for healing. This healing manifestation
is accomplished because one has allowed him or
herself to be an opened window through whom the
healing radiance has gone forth to all suffering
humanity. To seek to get healing is futile. To
let the healing radiance pour forth through you
in blessing to others is the perfect
way. Uranda Healing Radiations, 1

The Normal Miracle of Birth

• Torpedo babies
• Low Carb diets
• EFAs and membranes
• HPA/Glandular support
• Supporting a suppressed immune system
• Stewarding Phase II to avoid toxemia
• Prevent Toxic Exposure
• Physical Conditioning
• Promote Fetal Brain Development
• Energy Enhancement
• Prevent Miscarriage due to uterine insufficiency

25
Points of Pregnancy -

• Torpedo babies - Low carb diets less weight gain
  in mother and baby has reduced shoulder girth
  the medical reason for glucose tolerance tests is
  partially to determine the potential for a
  vaginal delivery and to prevent gestational
  diabetes easily corrected with protein
  inclusion and limiting insulin spikes by
  excluding starch.
• Low Carb Lifestyle Prevents morning sickness
  by limiting hypoglycemic trends and limits
  excessive mother weight gain and resultant
  stretch marks. Typically protein/food powders
  will support balanced glycemia. Phase II Diet,
  SP Complete (2 Tbsp), Protefood (6)
• EFAs and Membranes - Promote healthy membrane
  physiology with essential fatty acid support,
  thus ensuring gestational integrity pregnancy
  is a membrane miracle. Tuna Omega (2), Linum/B6
  (2), Multi EFA oil blend (3,6,9,12)
• HPA/Glandular Health - Throughout gestation the
  baby imprints upon a healthy hormone chemistry.
  The babys first impression of life on the
  planet. Symplex F(4), Hypothalmex/us (2)

26
Points of Pregnancy -

• Supporting the Suppressed Immune System Promote
  facilitated immune responses so there is
  compensation for the pregnant suppressed immune
  system, characterized by persistent immune
  challenges. Sesame Oil (6), Echinacea Premium(2).
• Stewarding Phase II Detox While not promoting
  any phase I initiatives, by supporting phase II
  cleansing all phase I intermediates may be cared
  for. Greenfood (2), Spanish Black Radish (4),
  itching sign of bile stasis and gallbladder
  stress use Cholacol (6), Betafood (6),
  Gastrofiber (6)
• Prevent Toxic Exposure - Toxic burdens during
  gestation and lactation may be imparted to the
  baby, so do not support detoxification as
  intermediate metabolites could challenge the
  baby. Promote Phase II detox throughout gestation
  to protect from unknown exposures. Greenfood (2)
• Promote Fetal Brain Development - Provide
  Choline 3/day through pregnancy as it is proven
  (Harvard study) to promote babys brain
  development

27
Points of Pregnancy -

• Physical Conditioning Walking and other
  activities can help maintain muscular tone and
  strength leading to better delivery outcomes
  Perineal massage.
• Energy Enhancement Vital force practices can
  assist mother to be 100 on for the later
  gestation and delivery marathon. Accupuncture,
  meridian/chakra balancing, attunement, etc.
• Prevent Miscarriage - If spotting occurs and
  threatens miscarriage use Chlorophyll 6-12/day
  and Utrophin 6/day immediately. After threat
  passes reduce dosage to one each per day.
• Conception Promotion - Use HPA /Glandular
  support, Ovatrophin PMG (2), Tribulus (2 day 5
  to 14), and White Peony 1 tsp/day

28
Application of will

• The chief act of the will is not effort
• But consent.

Conception / Fertility Issues -

• ART (Artificial Reproductive Techniques) risen
  77 in last 12 years, averaging cost per IVF
  cycle 15k (usually 3 to 4 cycles required for
  success)
• 6 million US couples (10 of all married people)
  grapple with infertility annually (only 20 seek
  medical assistance) approx. 250,000 test tube
  babies born in US since first baby born in
  England 1978
• Number of US women aged 20-25 tripled in last 30
  years worldwide sperm count has reduced by 50
  in last 50 years
• 1 in 5 women miscarry, 1 in 10 has toxemia, 1 in
  3 has post partum depression
• 1 in 5 births by C section (400 increase in 30
  years), 1 in 10 prematurity, 1 in 3 congenital
  defects

33
Conception / Fertility Issues -

• Ovatrophin PMG (6) used day 5-14 can increase
  ovulation, along with Tribulus (4)
• Chaste Tree (2) and Ovex (6) promote LH surge
  and thus ovulation signaling
• HPA axis strength essential starting place

34
How do we live?

• Without belittling the courage with which men
  have died, we should not forget the courage with
  which men have lived. The courage of life is
  often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage
  of a final moment but it is no less a
  magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A
  man does what he must in spite of personal
  consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers
  and pressures and that is the basis of all
  human morality
• John F. Kennedy

35
Sleep like a baby -

• Wake up disoriented as if you had been totally
  asleep foreign to most adults
• Mineral Status Calcium. Magnesium, Potassium
  taken at bedtime will alkalize and relax
• Calcium Lactate 4-6
• Magnesium Lactate 2-3
• Organic Minerals 3-4

Visit after visit Start Monday

• See each patient for the stages of evolution that
  they are personally completing, watching for the
  healing principles that apply to them at this
  stage in their process
• Teach every patient the principles that give them
  position and potency in their process, so that
  they might have the added context and stability
  to successfully complete their journey
• Begin to use the principles to fuel the engine of
  your service as you confidently lead through the
  process sometimes you will be navigating by
  your principles/instruments until things clarify
  and the way is clear
• Commence the lifelong project of digestive tract
  support and strengthening to promote long-term
  health and immune capacity
• Begin Sequential Immune Up-Regulation to activate
  the innate healing response contributing to
  general immune unburdening
• Change outcomes, stop progression, reverse
  scarring and damage long-term, reveal the
  inherent healing potential and miracle by using
  principles and products that follow applications
  that have not been dreamt of yet in a allopathic
  symptom obsessed paradigm namely bolster,
  unburden, repair and evolve
• Tune in, Turn on .. Enjoy!
