Naturin 2

Naturin 2 Health Benefits


As always, do your own research, but this really worked for me through my chemo treatments

A friend of mine told me about this great herbal drink to help my immune system that a lot of Chinese have been using for a long time. I though I would give it a try to share the health benefits, here is the article I found on Naturin 2


Naturin 2 is a very high quality health drink that is uniquely formulated with carefully selected fine natural ingredients based on the rich theories of traditional Chinese health care science and philosophy. It is made from the extracts of a number of precious natural plants and herbs with the purest spring water from the Northwest of the US. All ingredients in our products are entirely natural and are finely extracted – no preservatives, artificial flavors and coloring are added. Naturin 2 has undergone rigorous scientific testing and has been found to be very safe and has no adverse effects on the human body. In addition, Naturin 2 has a very smooth and pleasant taste.
Product Benefits:
The revolutionary characteristics of this product are to maintain the balance of the body’s natural healing power. Studies have demonstrated that drinking Naturin 2 assists the body in increasing the number and boosting the activity of Natural Killer Cells and Lymphokine-Activated Killer cells, which protects and enhances the white blood cell and lymphocyte cell system in the body.* Naturin 2 is an ideal natural herbal health drink for everyone in all health conditions.**

Suggested Use
For healthy individuals, recommended intake is 1 vial daily in the morning on an empty stomach. For those whose health condition is poor to very poor, the recommended intake is 1 to 2 vials for 2-3 times daily before each meal.
* Clinical and Experimental Studies: Since 1990, Greenland Inc., USA had begun to conduct a series of systematic, clinical and experimental studies of Naturin 2. Results showed Naturin 2 to have the capacity to induce positive, stimulatory effects on the human body’s immune system, especially the activities of the NK cells, LAK cells, and lymphocytes in tumor patients. As such, Naturin 2 is believed to help restore and regulate the immune system thereby boosting its ability to fight against various types of cancer, chronic diseases, and viral infections.
  1.  It has the ability to help suppress the growth of cancerous cells and prevent their spread.
  2.  As it strengthens the immune system, Naturin 2, alleviates the severe side effects of chemotherapy and radiation like hair loss, nausea, vomiting, reduction of white blood cells count, etc.
  3.  It is able to augment immune responses to protect the human body from many viral infections that cause vicious maladies such as cold and flu, hepatitis, stomach problems, pneumonia, and bladder infection.
  4.  Naturin 2 can also modify the immune system, restoring and enhancing its natural balance to combat malignant diseases like diabetes, lupus, gout, and allergies that stem from an askew, impaired immune system.
  5.  With its overall restorative and strengthening effects on the immune system, Naturin 2 is thought to help delaying the aging process and keeping patrons looking more youthful.
The Mediating Effects of Naturin 2 on Homeostasis
Naturin 2 is an all-powerful health drink made from various natural plants that act as a strong immune system booster. In the present study of Naturin 2, we also examined its effect on the hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from normal human umbilical cord blood.
First, we studied the in vitro activity of Naturin 2 on hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSCs/HPCs) from human umbilical cord blood. Results reveal that Naturin 2 by itself can influence the growth of these stem cells directly and thereby increase their colony formation. When combined with other stimulating agents, the effect becomes more powerful. Furthermore, the stimulatory effect by Naturin 2 is noted as mediated by both direct (mentioned above) and indirect action on HSCs/HPCs. The indirect action occurs when Naturin 2 is applied to induce the growth factors from helper cells like lymphocytes and phagocytes to form large numbers of colony stimulating factors commonly known as lymphokine-activated killer cells, interleukins (IL-3), and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factors (GM-CSF). By the same token, when cell production became overly active compromised by antigenic stimuli and antibodies, Naturin 2 is used to effect an inhibitory function by accelerating the release of suppressive cytokines such as tumor necrosis factors (TNF) and interferons to curb this phenomenon.
In summary, these experiments serve to demonstrate the binary, regulatory function of Naturin 2 characterized by its stimulating and inhibiting influences on the cell formation in the human biological defense mechanism. As such, they also suggest strongly the efficacy and possible clinical relevance of Naturin 2 for the treatment of cancer and other diseases arising from an impaired or deficient immune system.

Kidney Stones home remedy

My husband and sister have both suffered from kidney stones, it is absolutely painful trying to pass them. I took my husband to the hospital and all they could do is give him pain meds, storng pain meds. They sent him home to pass them and that was also painful. I wish the doctors would tell you that there is a better way to break down the stones, but they don't. When my sister had her stones, she actually tried this remedy and it worked! after taking the lemon and olive oil, she took a warm, long bath and the stones dissolved and passed without any pain. I hope this helps you;

Kidney Stones are crystal aggregations of dissolved minerals in urine that usually form inside the kidneys or the bladder, and can cause a lot of pain when passing them. Symptoms of kidney stones are unfortunately quite painful, though they may not cause any symptoms at all until they start causing pain: pain below the ribs or back, pain in the lower abdomen and groin, pain while urinating, cloudy or strong smelling urine that's colored red or brown, frequent urges to urinate, and nausea.
Fortunately, we have received an overwhelming response from our readers on our kidney stone remedies' page for the combination of lemon juice and olive oil, making it our most popular cure for kidney stones at almost 300 yeas.

Instructions for This Kidney Stone Treatment Home Remedy:

Mix together two ounces of freshly squeezed lemon juice with two ounces of olive oil and drink it all. Follow with plenty of water. Repeat this natural remedy treatment two to three times a day until the stones are passed (can occur anywhere from 1-3 days).

Pomegranate Benefits

I never used to eat pomegranates until I was diagnosed with cancer, now I know how great they are to prevent it and other great benefits. I found this great article from Dr. Fuhrman:

 Fall is here, and fresh pomegranates are available again. Pomegranate was one of the earliest cultivated fruits, and the fruit has been prominent throughout history in art, culture, and religion, from the story of the seasons in Greek mythology toRomeo and Juliet to the Bible.1,2 Pomegranate is ubiquitous in Middle Eastern cooking and its super food status and unique flavor and texture has made it increasingly popular in the U.S. in recent years. A pomegranate contains hundreds of tiny, crisp arils; each aril is a seed encased in a juicy pulp, a tasty mix of sweet and tart flavors.
Pomegranate contains a unique and powerful antioxidant called punicalagin, the most abundant antioxidant in pomegranate, responsible for more than half of the antioxidant activity of pomegranate juice.3 Pomegranate juice has been analyzed to have greater antioxidant capacity than red wine, grape juice, cranberry juice, green tea or acai juice;4 drinking pomegranate juice measurably reduces oxidative stress in healthy humans.5Much research has shown that pomegranate’s potent antioxidant capacity provides protection against heart disease, cancer and cognitive impairment.
Anti-cancer:
  • Pomegranate has anti-inflammatory effects that may protect against cancer and other chronic diseases.6,7
  • Pomegranate has anti-angiogenic properties, meaning that pomegranate may help to prevent growing tumors from acquiring a blood supply, preventing those tumors from receiving the nutrients that would allow them to grow larger.8-10
  • Pomegranate is one of the few foods (mushrooms are another) that contain natural aromatase inhibitors — this means that they inhibit the production of estrogen, which can reduce breast cancer risk.11
  • In men after treatment for prostate cancer, two studies have shown that pomegranate juice or supplements slowed the increase in PSA.12
Cardioprotective:
  • Pomegranate phytochemicals reduce LDL oxidation (a contributor to atherosclerotic plaque development).13
  • Pomegranate phytochemicals have blood pressure-reducing properties.14,15
  • In a study of patients with severe carotid artery blockages, after one ounce of pomegranate juice daily for one year, there was a 30 percent reduction in atherosclerotic plaque. In striking contrast, in the participants who did not take the pomegranate juice atherosclerotic plaque increased by 9 percent.13
Memory and brain function:
  • Pomegranate supplements taken before and after surgery prevented the postoperative memory dysfunction associated with coronary artery bypass or heart valve surgery.16
  • In those with mild memory complaints, those drinking pomegranate juice daily performed better on a memory task compared to placebo and displayed increased brain activation measured by functional MRI.17
Removing the edible arils from the pomegranate does take some effort, but the flavor and health benefits of pomegranate make the effort well worth it. Enjoy fresh pomegranates now that they are in season, and store some arils in the freezer or use pomegranate juice to get the health benefits of pomegranate all year round.

Liver cleaning foods

I found this great article on liver cleaning;

4 Natural Liver Cleansing Foodsby Anthony Gucciardi
Liver health is directly tied to your overall health, and poor liver health could very well be the root cause of many diseases that currently affect millions of people worldwide. Often assaulted with toxic substances like high-fructose corn syrup, which can ‘overburden’ the liver and subsequently lead to complications, it is very likely that your liver has experienced at least some degree of damage due to dietary and environmental factors. In fact, the only way to avoid the buildup of toxins in the liver would be to eat a nearly perfect diet free of additives, fillers, modified ingredients, or chemicals — virtually the opposite of the average American diet, which critically lacks any liver cleansing foods.
Thankfully, it is very possible to repair your liver naturally and help release excessive toxin buildup through the power of healing foods. Here are 5 natural liver cleansing foods:
1. Cleanse Your Liver with Avocados
Avocados have been shown to naturally protect and repair your liver. Containing a high amount of glutathione-producing compounds, avocados can actually help boost the ability of the liver to cleanse itself. Astonishing research has even shown that consuming one or two avocados per week for as little as 30 days can make a serious difference in the state of your liver health. The best part? Avocados can be enjoyed with virtually any meal, and are available throughout the world. Try adding in some fresh, organic avocados with your next meal to reap the benefits of liver cleansing foods like this one.
2. Garlic
The superfood garlic, which is known for its ability to fight against cancer and infections naturally, is also among the many great liver cleansing foods as it is very useful in repairing a compromised liver. While the benefits of garlic for liver health and beyond are many, one reason for its superior effects have to do with the fact that garlic contains numerous sulfur-containing compounds that are known to activate the liver enzymes responsible for expelling toxins from the body. Another lies in the presence of both allicin and selenium, two important nutrients that play an integral role in the protection of the liver from damage.
3. Turmeric
Turmeric can uniquely assist the enzymes that are responsible for flushing out known dietary carcinogens. The result is enhanced protection against liver damage, and even regeneration of affected liver cells. Turmeric is also notably responsible for improving the health of the gallbladder as well. These benefits are in addition to the shocking ability to turmeric to combat cancer in a number of studies. Researchers at the UCLA also found that curcumin — the ‘key’ compound within turmeric — exhibits cancer-blocking properties. The lab found that the enzymes in the patients’ mouths responsible for promoting cancer spread and growth were inhibited by curcumin supplementation. The ingestion of curcumin intake even blocked the spread of the malignant cells.
4. Lemon and Lime
While not exactly one of the liver cleansing foods, warm water with lemon or lime each morning could be one of the simplest and most advantageous methods of improving the health of your liver. High in vitamin C and potassium, lemons can help regulate biological functions. Some experts, such as A.F. Beddoe — who wrote the book Biological Ionization as Applied to Human Nutrition, have also stated that the liver produces more enzymes in response to water with lemon than to any other food.

Astragalus

I was recommended to take this herb, which I never heard about before. The benefits of this herb is amazing for the immune system, this is an article I found from the Dr. Oz show;

Astragalus Root: Is This Right for You?


Feel fatigued, drained and devoid of energy? Read more about astragalus, an herb used in traditional Chinese medicine that can keep your energy going and get you through the day.
What Is Astragalus?
Astragalus root has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries as a restorative tonic; it is considered a sweet, warming herb with effects on many organs. It is used either alone or with other herbs to help with aging, improve energy, and stimulate the immune system during conditions such as the common cold, blood disorders, cancer and HIV/AIDS. It is also used as an adaptogen, which is meant to increase general resistance to stress and disease, and normalize disturbances in your body’s ability to balance itself.
The root is sold as a supplement in tablets of different dosages.
How Does It Work?
There's a special chemical in astragalus that actually slows down the aging process right where it happens, inside of our cells, where the blueprint of our cells resides.
Recent research has shown that this special chemical derived from astragalus can "turn on" an enzyme called telomerase (hTERT). Telomerase acts to maintain or lengthen telomeres, which extend the lifespan of your DNA. If you imagine DNA as a shoelace, telomeres are the plastic aglets at each end. It serves as a protector for your DNA because it keeps it from fraying or damaging. As you age, your telomeres shorten due to wear and tear, which gives your cells an expiration date. However, telomerase helps to preserve telomeres by making them longer. Telemerase is usually "off" in adult cells, except in immune cells, in egg and sperm cells, and in malignant cells, like those found in cancer.
The length of your telomeres is important: Researchers have discovered correlations between telomere length and susceptibility to certain aging-related diseases, like cardiovascular diseases (heart attacks, atherosclerosis, and strokes), diabetes, and cancer.
Is It Safe?
Because of its long history of traditional and clinical use, astragalus is considered to be safe. However, it may increase the risk of bleeding, so caution is advised to those with bleeding disorders or those taking drugs that may increase the risk of bleeding. 
Also avoid using astragalus while pregnant or breastfeeding, due to harmful effects seen in preliminary studies.
How Much Should I Take?
Take 200 mg, twice a day. Take it once in the morning, and once in the evening, with or without food.
Most importantly, The Doctor Oz Show will not and does not promote any particular brand. If you see any ads or receive any e-mails that claim Dr. Oz is promoting or recommending a specific brand, ignore it and let The Dr. Oz Show know about it.
Also, understand that no pill is more effective than maintaining a regular exercise regimen and a healthy diet.

Here is a video I found on more info for cancer patients:
