How To Protect, Strengthen and Restore Your Kidney’s to A State of Health What do healthy kidneys do in your body? Healthy kidneys:

• Regulate the body’s fluid levels • Filter wastes and toxins from the blood • Release a hormone that regulates blood pressure (The Renin-Angiotensin

System) • Activate Vitamin D to maintain healthy bones. (Hydroxylation of Vitamin

D precursors to active Vitamin D, calcitriol). • Release the hormone that directs production of red blood cells

(Erythropoietin) • Keep blood minerals in balance (sodium, phosphorus, potassium)

Every 30 minutes, your kidneys filter all the blood in your body, removing waste and excess fluid. What are the most common causes of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)? Diabetes is number one:

• Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney disease.4 o In 2013, diabetes led to more than 51,000 new cases of kidney

failure. 4 o Over 247,000 people are currently living with kidney failure caused

by diabetes.4 • Over 29 million American adults have diabetes.10 • Of these, nearly 8.1 million are undiagnosed. • More than 35% of all people age 20 or older with diabetes have kidney

disease. High Blood Pressure and Cardiovascular Disease are number two:

• High blood pressure is the second leading cause of kidney disease.4 o In 2013, high blood pressure led to more than 33,000 new cases of

kidney failure.4 o 165,000 are currently living with kidney failure caused by high

blood pressure. 4 • 73 million American adults have high blood pressure. • 20% of all Americans with high blood pressure don't know they have it.9 • Since high blood pressure usually has no symptoms and can affect anyone

at any age, it's important to have regular blood pressure check-ups. • Cardiovascular disease is the number one killer of people with CKD.16 • Individuals with early stages of CKD are more likely to die from heart

disease than to reach end stage kidney disease.17 Kidney Stones11

• 1 in 10 Americans will have a kidney stone during his or her lifetime. • Each year, more than half a million people visit emergency rooms for

kidney stone problems. • White Americans are more prone to developing kidney stones.

• Men are much more likely than women to develop kidney stones.1 Drugs Are Another Cause Of Kidney Disease: I knew a man who took Ibuprofen daily from his mid twenties onwards, for his chronic pain. I believe he was in his early 30’s when he suffered kidney failure from the Ibuprofen and died. The Top Ten Drugs That Cause Kidney Damage Are: 1. Antibiotics, including ciprofloxacin, methicillin, vancomycin, sulfonamides. 2. Analgesics, including acetominophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID): aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, and others available only by prescription. 3. COX-2 inhibitors, including Celebrex. Two drugs in this class have been withdrawn from the market because of cardiovascular toxicity: rofecoxib (brand name Vioxx), and valdecoxib (brand name Bextra). These drugs are a special class of NSAID that were developed to be safer for the stomach, but have the same risk as other NSAIDs for kidney damage. 4. Heartburn drugs of the proton pump inhibitor class, including omeprazole (brand name Prilosec), lansoprazole (brand name Prevacid), pantoprazole (brand name Protonix), rabeprazol (brand names Rabecid, Aciphex), esomeprazole (brand names Nexium, Esotrex). 5. Antiviral drugs, including acyclovir (brand name Zovirax) used to treat herpes infection, and indinavir and tenofovir, both used to treat HIV. 6. High blood pressure drugs, including captopril (brand name Capoten). People with damaged kidney function frequently have high blood pressure and are prescribed high blood pressure drugs, which is almost guaranteeing that they will have kidney failure. It happened with one of my clients that got off dialysis from using Synergy One and was off of dialysis for 3 years, then started on high blood pressure drugs and forcing him back onto dialysis again. 7. Rheumatoid arthritis drugs, including infliximab (brand name Remicade); chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine, which are used to treat malaria and systemic lupus erythematosus as well as rheumatoid arthritis. 8. Lithium, used to treat bipolar disorder. 9. Anticonvulsants, including phenytoin (brand name Dilantin) and trimethadione (brand name Tridione), used to treat seizures and other conditions. 10. Chemotherapy drugs, including interferons, pamidronate, cisplatin, carboplatin, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, quinine, mitomycin C, bevacizumab; and anti-thyroid drugs, including propylthiouracil, used to treat overactive thyroid. For many prescription drugs, you can find the full prescribing information online. This information is typically 10 – 30 pages long, and includes detailed precautions, warnings, and adverse effects.2                                                                                                                1  https://www.kidney.org/news/newsroom/factsheets/FastFacts  

How Common is Kidney Disease?

• 1 in 3 adults, in America are currently at risk for developing kidney disease.1

• 26 million American adults have kidney disease -- and most don't know it.3

• Major risk factors for kidney disease include diabetes, high blood pressure, family history of kidney failure and being 60 or older in age. Additional risk factors include kidney stones, smoking, obesity and cardiovascular disease.

• Those at risk should have simple blood and urine tests to check if their kidneys are working properly.

• Kidney disease is the 9th leading cause of death in the United States. o Every year, kidney disease kills more people than breast or prostate

cancer.5 o In 2013, more than 47,000 people in American died from kidney

disease. 5 • Men with kidney disease are more likely than women to progress to kidney

failure.15 • African Americans are 3 times more likely to experience kidney failure.7 • Hispanics are 1½ times more likely to experience kidney failure.7 • Once the kidneys fail, dialysis or a kidney transplant are the only options

offered from the allopathic medical community. • More than 661,000 people in American have kidney failure. Of these,

468,000 individuals are on dialysis and approximately 193,000 live with a functioning kidney transplant.4

• More than 120,000 people waiting for lifesaving organ transplants in the U.S., 100,102 await kidney transplants (as of 4/25/16). Fewer than 17,000 people receive one each year.8

• Every day, 13 people die waiting for a kidney.83 What are the Signs and Symptoms of Kidney Failure?

• There are 5 stages to kidney disease; of these the first 3 stages are without symptoms.

• In stages 4 and 5 some signs of kidney disease include:

o Fatigue, weakness

o Difficult, painful urination

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         2  http://www.empowher.com/kidney-­‐failure/content/top-­‐ten-­‐drugs-­‐cause-­‐kidney-­‐damage  3  https://www.kidney.org/news/newsroom/factsheets/FastFacts  

o Foamy urine

o Pink, dark urine (blood in urine)

o Increased need to urinate (especially at night)

o Puffy eyes

o Swollen face, hands, abdomen, ankles, feet

o Increased thirst

• Early detection and treatment can slow or prevent the progression of kidney disease.6

Testing for Kidney Function would be testing for BUN and Creatine levels in the blood and for the GFR in the urine. Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) for males should be 100-125 ml/min and for females is should be 90-115 ml/min. If the GFR falls below 90 and continues to decline then your kidneys are headed towards failure. I’ve had a client go from a GFR of 20 to 50 from only drinking fresh vegetable juices. Drinking an abundance of fresh pressed green juices prior to having kidney failure helped this one client of mine immensely. However, once kidney failure has occurred and you are on dialysis, the large amounts of potassium from the green juices may be unsafe to consume. Excess potassium in the system can cause heart arrhythmia. The kidneys are involved in the production of vitamin D. Vitamin D from the diet or synthesis from sunlight via the skin is biologically inactive; activation requires enzymatic conversion (or hydroxylation) 4in the liver and kidneys, the massive amount of vitamin D deficiency seen in our culture today stems from lowered kidney function. I believe that due to Advanced Glycation Ends products from dry heating cooking of meats, Chronic Hidden Viral Infections, previous antibiotic usage, drugs, alcohol and refined white sugar and GMO foods that people’s kidneys are being damaged at an accelerated rate and the tendency to diminished kidney function is high. Chronic Kidney Disease is emerging as an all too common health problem in the Westernized world today.5 Vitamin D, also known as the sunshine vitamin, can be produced in the body with mild sun exposure or consumed in food or supplements. Adequate vitamin D intake is important for the regulation of calcium and phosphorus absorption, maintenance of healthy bones and teeth, and is suggested to supply a protective effect against multiple diseases and conditions such as cancer, type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis.                                                                                                                4  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_D  5  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2878736/  

Vitamin D has multiple roles in the body, helping to: § Maintain the health of bones and teeth § Support the health of the immune system, brain and nervous system § Regulate insulin levels and aid diabetes management § Support lung function and cardiovascular health § Influence the expression of genes involved in cancer development.

In spite of the name, vitamin D is considered a pro-hormone and not actually a vitamin. This is because the body is capable of producing its own vitamin D through the action of sunlight on the skin, while vitamins are nutrients that cannot be synthesized by the body and must be acquired through the diet or supplements. It is estimated that sensible sun exposure on bare skin for 5-10 minutes 2-3 times per week allows the body the ability to produce sufficient vitamin D, but vitamin D has a half-life of only two weeks, meaning that stores can run low, especially in winter. Recent studies have suggested that up to 50% of adults and children worldwide are vitamin D deficient. There are several likely factors contributing to vitamin D deficiency, which will be looked at further in this article. Vitamin D is produced when sunlight converts cholesterol in the skin into calciol (vitamin D3). Vitamin D3 is then converted into calcidiol (25-hydroxyvitamin D3) in the liver. The kidneys then convert calcidiol into the active form of vitamin D, called calcitriol (1,25-hydroxyvitamin D3). As such, statins and other medications or supplements that inhibit cholesterol synthesis, liver function or kidney function can impair the synthesis of vitamin D.6 Mounting evidence suggests that vitamin D deficiency could be linked to several chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease and cancer. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and its correlates to test the hypothesis that vitamin D deficiency was common in the US population, especially in certain minority groups. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005 to 2006 data were analyzed for vitamin D levels in adult participants (N = 4495). Vitamin D deficiency was defined as a serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations ≤20 ng/mL (50 nmol/L). The overall prevalence rate of vitamin D deficiency was 41.6%, with the highest rate seen in African Americans (82.1%), followed by Hispanics (69.2%). Vitamin D deficiency was significantly more common among those who had no college education, were obese, with a poor health status, hypertension, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level, or not consuming milk daily (all P < .001). Multivariate analyses showed that being from a non-white race, not college educated, obese, having low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, poor health, and no daily milk consumption were all significantly, independently associated with vitamin D deficiency (all P < .05). In summary, vitamin D deficiency was common in the US population, especially among blacks and Hispanics. Given                                                                                                                6  http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/161618.php  

that vitamin D deficiency is linked to some of the important risk factors of leading causes of death in the United States, it is important that health professionals are aware of this connection and offer dietary and other intervention strategies to correct vitamin D deficiency, especially in minority groups.7 If you have already received a kidney transplant then the goal would be to assist the body in producing enough stem cells and converting those cells into your own kidney cells with your own DNA. I have heard of a case history where this happened. The person was using KDN Medix over 2 years time was able to convert his transplanted kidneys entirely into his own DNA. Thus eliminating the need for immunosuppressant drugs. In addition to KDN Medix I recommend using a pulsed electromagnetic pad device, as this may assist the body in making more stem cells in the bone marrow. Having used two other supposed Rolls Royce pulsed Electro Magnetic devices, I’m convinced that the best Pulse Electro Magnetic Pad device on the market that, that I’m aware of is the Bemer device. Nutrients to support a restoration of Kidney Health: Protein digesting Enzymes: It is essential to kidney health to be able to digest proteins in the meal to insure optimal amino acid absorption. Therefore taking a plant derived digestive enzyme supplement with each meal is essential to this goal. Taking a full spectrum digestive enzyme with high levels of protease is the best type of enzyme supplement to consume. I recommend the powdered version and consuming ½ tsp. to 1 level tsp. per meal. If using caps then consuming 5 to 10 caps per meal is recommended. LiyfZyme: supplies a full spectrum and high concentrations of powerful digestive enzymes. Due to the broad spectrum of enzymes, high concentrations and affordability LiyfZyme is my choice amongst all the digestive enzyme products on the market today. Enzymes in between meals: Research now indicates that the pancreas is a transformation organ involved in converting metabolic enzymes into digestive enzymes. What does this mean? We are all born with a certain enzyme potential. Left in a raw state the food naturally has enzymes in its tissues that will digest that food. The cooking of foods destroys the naturally occurring enzymes in that food. Since cooking is the most common way of eating food, this puts a big burden upon the body to have to produce all of the enzymes needed to digest this food. This always results in an increase in white blood right after eating cooked food. The white blood cells come to the rescue to donate enzymes for digestion and for eating up the unusable damaged molecules caused from cooking. As we age the body steals the metabolic enzymes needed to make organs and tissues work and via the pancreas transforms them into digestive enzymes. This depletes organs of metabolic enzymes and causes them to decline in function or to age. Hence taking 1/8th tsp. of digestive enzymes mixed with 4 ounces of water and 1/8th tsp. of Prodosomes, taken on an empty stomach, may go a long ways to restoring all organ systems metabolic enzyme levels.                                                                                                                7  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21310306  

Prodosomes are phospholipids that coat the enzymes and insure that the enzymes are absorbed into the blood stream. Once in the blood stream they circulate to all parts of the body and will digest undigested proteins, fats and starches and potentially donate themselves into the organs for the organs to use them as metabolic enzymes. N-Sorb: Addresses the systemic enzyme needs of the body are taken between meals. Chitosan aka Trident: Has been shown to help people with kidney failure. With only 45 milligrams taken 3x per day, it worked to lower urea, cholesterol and increase hemoglobin production. Patients noticed increases in energy and appetite from consuming Chitosan.8 Diabetics need the benefits of Chromium supplementation: Chromium is an essential mineral for human nutrition and aids in the normal function of insulin - one hormone that is critical for the normal regulation of blood sugar. The essentiality of chromium was discovered by mistake - individuals who were in the hospital receiving liquid nutrition were developing diabetes. When chromium was added to the nutrition packs (total parenteral nutrition or TPN), diabetes was prevented. Following this discovery, several nutrition researchers began trying to understand how chromium functions in our cells. Eventually an elaborate model was pieced together that seems to explain the function of chromium and its role in blood sugar regulation; in brief, chromium is stored inside of our cells bound to a small protein, when insulin binds its receptor chromium assists in the insulin message and then is excreted from the cell and ultimately from the body (Vincent et al. 2000). This process seems to occur in a glucose-dependent manner, i.e. higher sugar = greater insulin-binding (assuming normal function) = more chromium losses.9 Chromium in a highly absorbable form of a Prodosome can be obtained from Prodovite. Acemannan: Acemannan is a mucopolysaccharide found in the gel of the aloe vera plant. It has been studied and found to be powerful for the immune system. The benefits of Acemannan include it being an immunostimulant, antiviral, antineoplastic and gastrointestinal properties. Acemannan is a long chain sugar that interjects itself into all cell membranes. This results in an increase in the fluidity and permeability of the membranes allowing toxins to flow out of the cell more easily and nutrients to enter the cell more easily. This result is better cellular                                                                                                                8  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9255718  9http://www.diabetesaction.org/site/PageServer?pagename=complementary_october_06  

metabolism throughout the body and an overall increase in energy production. This is of great benefit to the normal and healthy functioning of the kidneys. In the gut, the polysaccharides in aloe vera have been shown to act as strong anti-inflammatory agents, neutralizing many of the enzymes responsible for damaging the mucosal wall. This can result in decreased inflammation of the intestinal wall and less absorption of allergic stimulating foreign protein as well as enhancing the repair of the intestinal tissue. Research has also demonstrated direct viricidal, bactericidal, and fungicidal properties, which can help control Candida overgrowth so the normal gastrointestinal bacterial flora can be restored. It has also been found that these polysaccharides stimulate intestinal motility, improving the elimination process to move allergenic proteins from the small intestine into the colon. All these processes can help to normalize gastrointestinal wall structure and function and therefore stop the viscous cycle of immune system damage. The Wound Hormone The Ukrainians are credited with preliminary research concerning a “wound hormone” found in certain plant tissues. They observed that this plant hormone accelerated the healing of injured plant surfaces. Using skin lesion models in rats and rabbits they observed that this plant “wound hormone” had the same effect in mammals. Testing was done by injection and topical application. The topical application was much more rapid and complete resulting in a systemic response and accelerated healing. Additional research found that Aloe vera gel was a safe and effective source of the “wound hormone” which was later identified as Acemannan. It is the Aloe inner leaf gel that is known to stimulate and accelerate wound healing processes. However, many aloe-based wound products currently on the market fail to produce the desirable effect due to the absence of Acemannan.10 Aloe Vera and Acemannan can be obtained from Prodovite. Fish Oils and Flax Oils: Recent studies showed that Poly Unsaturated Fatty Acid (PUFA) supplementation slowed the rate of loss of renal function in patients with IgA nephropathy. Then, studies of omega-3 supplementation in dialysis patients describe beneficial effects on triglyceride levels. We examined the relationship between total plasma PUFA levels and change in creatinine clearance over a three-year follow-up in the older persons enrolled in the In CHIANTI study, a population-based epidemiology study conducted in Tuscany, Italy. This study showed that older adults with low total plasma PUFA levels have a greater decline in creatinine clearance over three years of follow-up. These findings suggest that a higher dietary intake of PUFA may be protective against progression to chronic kidney disease. 11 Increasing Glutathione Production

                                                                                                               10  http://www.exhibithealth.com/general-­‐health/what-­‐is-­‐acemannan-­‐980/  11  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20041816  

All organ and tissue systems are dependent upon Glutathione for protection for free radicals, aka oxidative stress and the neutralization and removal of all toxins. The excess of free radicals in the kidneys contributes to the tubule cell injury, which occurs during acute renal failure. A healthy cell is supposed to produce 10% of its protein content as glutathione, but due to toxicity and aging this in not occurring. Taking glutathione is not nearly as helpful as causing the body to be able to produce glutathione within the cells of the body. The key to achieving this is a combination of getting rid of intestinal inflammation and consuming the nutrients that most strongly support glutathione production. The amino acid glycine has been shown to more strongly protect the kidney tubules than glutathione supplementation. Glycine is one of the three amino acids that make up glutathione. 12 Taking a Free Form Amino Acid supplement with Glycine in it can only be helpful in protecting the kidneys. Since free from amino acids are not denatured by heat they will not pose an excess nitrogen waste burden to the kidneys. Therefore taking All Basic a free form amino acid supplement will reduce the need for cooked dietary proteins, which burden the kidneys and supply 20 amino acids needs for a myriad of functions that benefit the body. Regarding Glutathione production, taking the supplements that most strongly support Glutathione production is the key and here they are: One World Whey and ThionExtra. When Chronic Kidney Disease exists, the body is in a chronic acid pH state. Since the blood pH has to remain between 7.35 to 7.45 at all times or you die, the body sacrifices the hemoglobin protein within the red blood cells to maintain the correct blood pH. This causes anemia. However more iron is not the answer. The body tends to store plenty of iron within the spleen and liver. It is more a matter of correcting pH. There are two means that can be used in combination to correct the pH of the body. One is the traditional method of bringing in more alkalizing substances. Alkaline water, alkalizing calcium’s, vegetable juices, Megahydrate etc. However the primary cause of a chronic acid pH has to do with poor conversion of glucose into ATP or energy. Under ideal cellular conditions the mitochondria within the cell should convert each molecule of glucose into 38 units of ATP. Due to toxins, cell damage, nutrient deficiencies and an acid pH, the cell becomes compromised in converting glucose into energy. In the most extreme example a tumor cell creates 2 units of ATP for each molecule of glucose and a whole lot of lactic acid. So the primary and most important means of correcting whole body tissue pH is to improve the mitochondria’s ability to convert glucose into energy. This can be accomplished when all the nutrients needed by the mitochondria are introduced to the inside of the cell.                                                                                                                12  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1509163  

You’d think that just consuming a good diet and maybe some fresh juices, and taking some supplements would insure that all nutrients you need, would get into the cells of your body in an optimal manner. But such in not the case, even with an organic diet with juices, for many people the nutrients needed within the cells are not getting in on a moment to moment basis fast enough or at all. Thanks to recent neutraceutical developments a patented process now exists to insure that the nutrition the cells need gets into the cells. When the basic vitamin, minerals, and herbs needed by the body can get into the cells, then the cells can create energy in an optimal manner. This lowers the production of lactic acid to a minimal level, increases energy production, produces a more alkaline pH in the body and simultaneously causes your blood and cells to begin to be able to use oxygen and water. This translates into every cell of the body becoming healthier. Prodovite helps correct cell metabolism so that body and blood pH can return to normal. The kidneys are also involved in alkalizing the body with the production of bicarbonate ions. There are numerous acids that come into the kidney that must be neutralized to protect the kidneys and body from damage. Carbonic and other acids under ideal conditions with healthy kidney function will be neutralized with the bicarbonate production from the kidneys. However when struggling with Chronic Kidney Disease they become compromised in their ability to do this. Therefore adding some mixed bicarbonates, which are alkaline minerals as found in Alkabase may be very helpful to the kidneys and whole body to recover health. Crossing Linking and Aging: ARGININE RETARDS GLYCOSYLATION, AND THEREFORE AGING Durk Pearson said, "One very important thing about arginine is that it is a very powerful sacrificial target for cross-linkers. If nothing else gets you, you're going to end up having to go on kidney dialysis at the age of 90 or 100 or 120, because, throughout your lifetime, cross-linking reactions are taking place in the collagen in the basement membrane of your kidneys." (See Figure 2.)

Figure 2. The vital filtering component of the glomerulus is the basement membrane, which "encases" the capillary walls. Among the benefits of arginine are protecting this membrane from age-related degradation (glycosylation reactions) and providing the nitric oxide needed by the capillary epithelial cells for optimal functioning. By chemically "sacrificing" itself, arginine interferes with a kind of reaction that tends to damage the proteins in certain membranes by cross-linking them. This reaction, called glycosylation, causes the membranes to thicken and harden, a classic symptom of aging. By inhibiting glycosylation, arginine protects and preserves the membranes, and thus the functions of the organs of which they are a part - in this case, the kidneys, whose basement membranes are involved in the filtration of metabolic waste products (mostly urea) from the blood.13 By taking All Basic or All Basic Plus you will be getting a more generous supply of Arginine and when used in combination with Prodovite, there will be polyphenol synergists that will help to create more generous amounts of Nitric Oxide for a longer time. The Arginine acts one to protect basement membranes of the kidneys from succumbing to glycosylation and cross-linking. The Arginine also supports nitric oxide production. Nitric Oxide will support keeping the arteries clean of plaque, protecting against cancer and helping to keep blood vessels dilated so blood reaches all parts of the body.

                                                                                                               13  http://www.life-­‐enhancement.com/magazine/article/124-­‐arginine-­‐keeps-­‐kidneys-­‐in-­‐the-­‐pink  

Magnesium: Is needed to lower high blood pressure, it is also needed for the body to eliminate excess calcium and phosphorus that build up in the body of people with CKD. Not all magnesium is equal and if you take one that is too large of a particle it can build up in the body and cause problems. So taking a highly absorbed form is essential. The magnesium in the Prodovite product is in the patented Prodosome delivery system and should safely address the body magnesium needs. However since Magnesium is a macro mineral required in large amounts by the body. Then the 50 milligrams of magnesium per serving in Prodovite may not be enough. Taking up to 700 milligrams a day has proven successful in one CKD sufferers case. 14 There is magnesium in green foods and juices and there is 50 mg of Magnesium per each ounce serving of Prodovite. But if more magnesium might be therapeutically helpful to you, then, using an angstrom or a 1 to 10 atom particle of Magnesium would be best. Angstrom Magnesium is a good way to address extra magnesium needs. Malic Acid: It is speculated by researchers that consumption of malic acid induced systemic alkalinization leading to reduced renal tubular reabsorption and metabolism of citrate, and an increase in excretion of the latter. We conclude that malic acid supplementation may be useful for conservative treatment of calcium renal stone disease by virtue of its capacity to induce these effects. 15 Malic acid is present in the product Prodovite. Quercetin: Since oxidative stress is a cause of kidney damage any substance that can neutralize this oxidative stress in the kidneys is conducive to kidney health. Treatment with Quercetin significantly attenuated renal dysfunction and oxidative stress in diabetic rats.16 Quercetin is one of many flavonoids that all have antioxidant effects. The product Prodovite has a blend of Bioflavonoids from rose hips in it. Flax Seed Oil and Lignans aka Secoisolariciresinol: Kidney Benefit: As seen in clinical trials, Secoisolariciresinol has the ability to moderate proteinuria and preserve renal function. “We conclude that dietary protein substitution with flaxseed meal reduces proteinuria and glomerular and tubulointerstitial lesions in obese SHR/N-cp rats and that flaxseed meal is more effective than soy protein in reducing proteinuria and renal histologic abnormalities in this model.”17 Selenium: Is needed by the body to make the enzyme Glutathione peroxidase whose main biological functions is to reduce lipid hydroperoxides their corresponding alcohols and hydrogen peroxide to water. It also makes                                                                                                                14  http://www.naturalnews.com/038713_kidney_disease_magnesium_nutrition.html  15  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24059642  16  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15053821  17  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14633132  

Thioredoxin reductases. Thioredoxin reductases, exists in all living cells and has an evolutionary history tied to DNA as a genetic material, defense against oxidative damage due to oxygen metabolism, and redox signaling using molecules like hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide.18 Some studies have reported that Se status and immune function improve after oral and intravenous Se supplementation in renal patients, reducing the products of oxidative stress19 70 mcg of Selenium is found in each one ounce serving of Prodovite. Taurine: Taurine shows many protective functions for the kidneys. One benefit was found by researcher, Trachtman who has reviewed the evidence that taurine functions as a protective agent against toxicity-induced forms of glomerulonephritis. 20 When dealing with Chronic Kidney Disease I believe supplemental Taurine can give benefits. This can be supplied from the Amino Acid supplement called All Basic. Vitamin C: Can act as an antioxidant protection to the kidneys. Studies show vitamin C in combination with E supported a lowering of blood pressure in salt treated rats.21 Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids is needed for connective tissue repair, of which connective tissue is part of the make up of kidneys. 60 milligrams of vitamin C and Bioflavonoids are in each one-ounce serving of Prodovite. Vitamin D: Vitamin D from the diet or dermal synthesis from sunlight is biologically inactive; activation requires enzymatic conversion (hydroxylation) in the liver and kidney. Thus under functioning Kidneys is a significant cause of vitamin D deficiency. The vitamin D endocrine system plays an essential role in calcium homeostasis and bone metabolism, but research during the past two decades has revealed a diverse range of biological actions that include induction of cell differentiation, inhibition of cell growth, immunomodulation, and control of other hormonal systems. Prodovite supplies 400 IU of Vitamin D per one ounce serving, it may be beneficial to take 5000 IU two per day in addition to the 400 IU - 2 to 3 times per day from Prodovite. Vitamin E: may slow kidney failure owing to oxidative stress.22 15 IU’s of Vitamin E can be obtained in each one-ounce serving of Prodovite. Zinc: Since the body of a person with CKD is acidic and the blood is sacrificing red blood cells to donate hemoglobin proteins to neutralize acids. The body’s response to this is to loose more iron and zinc. It is the amino acids Arginine, Histidine and Lysine coming from the broken down Hemoglobin that are acting

as alkalizers for an overly acidic body. Creating a zinc deficiency. Evidence to support this is found in PubMed.23 Therefore the correct dosages needed of supplemental zinc would be of great benefits to a person with CKD. Zinc may help protect the kidneys via the production of metallothioneins, which aid detoxification and are an antioxidant protein. 24 10 mg of highly absorbable Zinc can be obtained from each one ounce serving of Prodovite. Any disease process including Chronic Kidney Disease has inflammation as a factor. Any herb that can have a strong anti-inflammatory effect can be beneficial to restoring Kidney Health. Herbs with a strong history of use to support kidney health are: Alisma: The leaves are antibacterial, anticholesterolemic, diaphoretic, diuretic,hypoglycaemic and hypotensive[4, 147, 176].* Alisma Plantago Aquatica leaves are used in the treatment of cystitis,dysentery, renal calculus, gravel etc[4].* The fresh Alisma leaf is rubefacient[222], is used in the treatment ofleprosy[218] and is also applied locally to bruises and swellings[4]. Dried Alisma stem bases are eaten, or grated and taken with water in treatingdigestive disorders such as heartburn, cramps and stomach flu[257]. The powdered seed is an astringent, used in cases of bleeding[4].* The Alisma seed is also said to promote sterility[218]. The root contains an essential oil and has a wide range of medicinal uses[176, 218, 283]. Alisma root is antibacterial, anticholesterolemic, diuretic and hypotensive[176]. Alisma root is said to lower blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels[238] whilst it also has an antibacterial action on Staphylococcus,Pneumococci and Mycobacterium[176].* Alisma root is used in the treatment of oliguria, oedema, nephritis, acute diarrhoea, cholesterolaemia and fatty liver[176]. Alisma has been thought of as a cure for rabies, though this has not been substantiated[4]. The whole plant is believed to promote conception[218]. The root is harvested before the plant comes into flower and is dried for later use[238]. A homeopathic remedy is obtained from the fresh root[4].* Astragalus: Preliminary research suggests Astragalus may help protect the kidneys and may help treat kidney disease. More studies are needed. 25 Other studies show evidence that when used with conventional treatment that Astragalus may help to decrease the serum creatinine, reduce the amount of protein lost in urine and diminish the effects of some complications, such as

anemia and malnutrition….26. The real reason for anemia is due to the chronic acid pH of the body. The red blood cells are sacrificing the hemoglobin protein to buffer or make more alkaline a blood threatened by excess acids entering into the circulation. So correcting pH in the body will most likely solve the anemia. Astragalus is found in Prodovite. Cyperus Rotundus: is used both as a functional food and as a drug. The extract exhibited high reduction capability and powerful free radical scavenging, especially against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and superoxide anions as well as a moderate effect on NO [149].27 Dioscorea: There are six herbs that make up RF, namely Rehmannia glutinosa, Fructus corni, Dioscorea, Poria cocos, Alisma, and Paeonia suffruticosa. On the basis of the publications found in PubMed during the period 2000–2009, RF appears to have beneficial effects on blood glucose, neuropathy, and nephropathy. 28 Rehmannia glutinosa: ameliorates the progressive renal failure. 29 Poria Cocos: Poria cocos (Chinese Pinyin: Fu Ling) is a sweet, bland and neutral herb. This medicinal fungus has been widely used and highly respected in Asia. In the wild, Poria cocos grows much like the European truffle, only it grows around the roots of certain pine trees instead of oaks. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is claimed to soothe the heart, disperse moisture and stagnation, strengthen vital energy, and assuage agitation; treat abdominal distension, edema, difficult urination, diabetes and diarrhea; enhance, protect, and restore liver function; modulate the immune system, balance blood sugar, and boost fat metabolism; have a whitening effect of skin, and reduce the appearance of pores and blackheads.* Traditional Chinese Medicinal (TCM) Uses* In TCM, Fu ling has been used for edema, improving liver and kidney functions, strengthen the spleen, calm the spirit, removal of obstructive phlegm and help with insomnia.1 Fu ling has also been used to support the following: improve body weight, improve appetite, lessen or prevent side effect of chemo therapy, protect bone marrow, improve radiation therapy on nose and throat cancers, diarrhea, improve schizoid condition, for baldness, as diuretics, in urinary difficulty, edema, water retention, pixu with water retention. Urination difficulty due to damp heat. Pixu with mucus production and headache, dizziness, palpitations, with think greasy tongue coating. Palpitation, insomnia or forgetfulness, loss of appetite. Inflammation of the uterus and chronic sinusitis, diuretics, reducing plasma glucose, tranquilizing, inhibits bacteria, relaxing effect on smooth muscles, improves immune system.2*                                                                                                                26  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0069179/  27  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18158839  28  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3897216/  29  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19146934  

Rehmannia Chinese Foxglove: Traditional Chinese Medicinal (TCM) Uses* Antiseptic; Cardiac; Diuretic; Febrifuge; Hemostatic; Hypoglycemic; Skin; Tonic. This plant, called Di Huang in China, is commonly used in Chinese herbalism, where it is one of the most popular tonic herbs and is considered to be one of the 50 fundamental herbs. The root is the main part used and it can be prepared in four different ways - charcoaled, prepared (but no details of the preparation are given) when it is called Shu Di Huang and fresh or dried when it is called Sheng Di Huang. The roots are antibacterial, antiseptic, cardiac, diuretic, febrifuge, hemostatic, hypoglycemic and tonic. They are used in the treatment of a wide range of ailments, including anemia, cancer, bleeding, constipation, coughs, fever and premature ejaculation.* The charcoaled root is used to stop bleeding and tonify the spleen and stomach. The fresh root is used to treat thirst, the rash of infectious diseases and bleeding due to pathological heat. The dried root is used to treat bleeding due to blood deficiency and to nourish the vital essence. The prepared root is used to treat dizziness and palpitations due to anemia or blood deficiency, chronic tidal fever, night sweats, dry mouth, lumbago and nocturnal emissions. The roots of cultivated plants are harvested in the autumn or early winter, whilst wild plants are harvested in early spring. They can be used fresh or dried. The root is an ingredient of 'Four Things Soup', the most widely used woman's tonic in China. The other species used are Angelica sinensis, Ligusticum wallichii and Paeonia lactiflora. The leaves are bruised and used in the treatment of scaly eczema or psoriasis.* Ganoderma lucidum: has a long history of use for promoting health and longevity in China, Japan, and other Asian countries. It is a large, dark mushroom with a glossy exterior and a woody texture. The Latin word lucidus means “shiny” or “brilliant” and refers to the varnished appearance of the surface of the mushroom. In China, G. lucidum is called lingzhi, whereas in Japan the name for the Ganodermataceae family is reishi or mannentake. According to the State Pharmacopoeia of the People’s Republic of China (2000), G. lucidum acts to replenish Qi, ease the mind, and relieve cough and asthma, and it is recommended for dizziness, insomnia, palpitation, and shortness of breath.30 Alisma, Astragalus, Cyperus, Dioscorea, Poria, Rehamannia, Ganoderma can all be found in Kidney Well II. Also, poor blood flow to any tissue causes acid accumulation and a decrease in pH. When the hydrogen ion concentration changes from normal, the kidneys

                                                                                                               30  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK92757/  

excrete either an acid or alkaline urine, thereby also helping to readjust the hydrogen ion concentration of the body fluids back to normal. The kidneys, although providing the most powerful of all the acid base regulatory systems, require many hours to several days to readjust the hydrogen ion concentration. The kidneys alone produce about two hundred and fifty grams (about half a pound) of bicarbonate per day in an attempt to neutralize acid in the body. The kidneys monitor and control the acidity or “acid-base” (pH) balance of the blood. If the blood is too acidic, the kidney makes bicarbonate to restore the bloods pH balance. If the blood is too alkaline, then the kidney excretes bicarbonate into the urine to restore the balance. Acid-base balance is the net result of two processes, first, the removal of bicarbonate subsequent to hydrogen ion production from the metabolism of dietary constituents; second, the synthesis of “new” bicarbonate by the kidney.[3] John, a dialysis technician at the same center as Dr. Hariachar, who used to be on dialysis himself for 2 years as a result of kidney failure, had his kidneys miraculously start functioning to the point where dialysis was no longer needed. He states that he was prescribed oral doses of sodium bicarbonate throughout his treatment, and still takes it daily to prevent recurrences of kidney failure. Dr. Hariachar maintains though, that taking bicarbonate will help not everyone. He says that those patients who have difficulty excreting acids, even with dialysis using a bicarbonate dialysate bath, that, “oral bicarbonate makes all the difference.” | It is considered that normal adults eating ordinary Western diets have chronic, low-grade acidosis, which increases with age. This excess acid, or acidosis, is considered to contribute to many diseases and to contribute to the aging process. Acidosis occurs often when the body cannot produce enough bicarbonate ions (or other alkaline compounds) to neutralize the acids in the body formed from metabolism and drinking highly acid drinks like Coke, Pepsi and we are even seeing reports on bottled mineral water being way too acidic. Acid buffering by means of base supplementation is one of the major roles of dialysis. Bicarbonate concentration in the dialysate (solution containing water and chemicals (electrolytes) that passes through the artificial kidney to remove excess fluids and wastes from the blood, also called “bath.”) should be personalized in order to reach a midweek pre-dialysis serum bicarbonate concentration of 22 mmol/l.[4] Use of sodium bicarbonate in dialysate has been shown in studies to better control some metabolic aspects and to improve both treatment tolerance and patients’ life quality. Bicarbonate dialysis, unlike acetate-free biofiltration, triggers mediators of inflammation and apoptosis.[5] One of the main reasons we become acid is from over-consumption of protein.

Eating meat and dairy products may increase the risk of prostate cancer, research suggests.[6] We would find the same for breast and other cancers as well. Conversely mineral deficiencies are another reason and when you combine high protein intake with decreasing intake of minerals you have a disease in the making through lowering of pH into highly acidic conditions. When protein breaks down in our bodies they break into strong acids. Unless a treatment actually removes acid toxins from the body and increases oxygen, water, and nutrients most medical interventions come to naught. These acids must be excreted by the kidneys because they contain sulfur, phosphorus or nitrogen which cannot break down into water and carbon dioxide to be eliminated as the weak acids are. In their passage through the kidneys these strong acids must take a basic mineral with them because in this way they are converted into their neutral salts and don’t burn the kidneys on their way out. This would happen if these acids were excreted in their free acid form. Substituting a sodium bicarbonate solution for saline infusion prior to administration of radiocontrast material seems to reduce the incidence of nephropathy.[7]- Dr. Thomas P. Kennedy American Medical Association Bicarbonate ions neutralize the acid conditions required for chronic inflammatory reactions. Hence, sodium bicarbonate is of benefit in the treatment of a range of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Sodium bicarbonate is a well studied and used medicine with known effects. Sodium bicarbonate is effective in treating poisonings or overdoses from many chemicals and pharmaceutical drugs by negating their cardiotoxic and neurotoxic effects.[8] It is the main reason it is used by orthodox oncology – to mitigate the highly toxic effects of chemotherapy. Sodium bicarbonate possesses the property of absorbing heavy metals, dioxins and furans. Comparison of cancer tissue with healthy tissue from the same person shows that the cancer tissue has a much higher concentration of toxic chemicals, pesticides, etc. Sodium bicarbonate injection is indicated in the treatment of metabolic acidosis, which may occur in severe renal disease, uncontrolled diabetes, and circulatory insufficiency due to shock or severe dehydration, extracorporeal circulation of blood, cardiac arrest and severe primary lactic acidosis. The acid/alkaline balance is one of the most overlooked aspects of medicine. In general, the American public is heavily acid, excepting vegetarians, and even their bodies have to face increasing levels of toxic exposure, which help turn the body to acidic pH conditions.31 Since high blood pressure is the second leading cause of Kidney failure, something must be done to lower the high blood pressure. As stated                                                                                                                31  Sodium  Bicarbonate  by  Dr.  Mark  Sircus  

before high blood pressure as well as many other drugs damage the kidneys and can cause kidney failure. Nature always has an answer if we look. The following herbs have a historical usage for contributing to healthy blood pressure. Hawthorn Berry Extract: Hawthorn berry is a traditional herbal remedy clinically shown to help improve the blood supply to the heart by dilating the hearts vessels. Hawthorne also appears to help support the metabolism of the heart. * • Holly leaf extract. Holly Leaf has been used as a folk medicinal tea in China for centuries. Recent studies suggest Holly leaf helps expand blood vessels to help support circulation and blood flow to the heart. * • Daikon seed extract. Daikon seed has been used for a thousand years as a traditional herbal remedy. Studies suggest that Daikon seed helps maintain cardio-vascular health and helps support healthy blood pressure. * This following graph is the result of studies done with a combination of these herbs to lower blood pressure:

The combination of these effective blood pressure lowering herbs can be found in the product Holistrol. For the kidneys to heal they must not be burdened with excess nitrogen wastes. This means that the type and amount of protein in the diet is critical. Ultimately the body is attempting to disassemble amino acids from protein and then give them to the liver for reassembly into albumin and other proteins. In order for the body to actually use the amino acids from food, those amino acids have to be in the exact same shape that nature originally gave them. If they are bent or twisted the body cannot use this kind of an amino acid. This bent and twisted amino acid

occurs from cooking foods at normal cooking temperatures. This damaged amino acid is called denatured. So obtaining proteins that are the least denatured is the best form of protein to support healing. From foods this would be raw milk colostrum or raw milk or raw milk whey, raw eggs, raw plant protein powders, non-denatured whey protein powder and supplemental free form amino acids that have a balance of the broadest spectrum of the 20 amino acids the body relies on to make all proteins in the body. The products I recommend for supplemental protein and amino acid needs are All Basic or All Basic Plus- (All Basic Plus has Tryptophan in it which is good to take if you feel the need to calm down.) and One World Whey. Growth factors are proteins or cholesterol derived compounds within the body that instruct the cells to open up and absorb amino acids. Once amino acids are inside the cell, the cell can make protein to heal itself or contribute to some other important body function. Growth factors are at there peak in the body between the ages of 18 and 28, the time when you have the most energy and are most protected from disease. After age 28 growth factor production begins to decline by 10% each decade. So by age 60, when Chronic Kidney disease is common to occur, you have 32% less production of your growth factors than when you were 28. By taking growth factor supplements you can promote an increase in growth factors in your body and an improved rate of overall repair of the body. The two products I’ve seen or heard clinically significant results with are Synergy One (formerly Chrysalis) and KDN Medix. Synergy One supports the bodies’ production of IGF-1. The unique means by, which Synergy One supports the increasing the production of IGF-1 in the body can result, is improved repair of all tissue systems of the body. Coriander Seed Oil & Premium Flax Seed Oils: Another critical aspect of human health is the ability of your cells to utilize oxygen. One mechanism involved in oxygen utilization is that the 300 + trillion cells of your body need to have Unoxidized Linolenic and Linoleic essential fatty acids in the cell walls. These fatty acids, in the cells walls serve as the attractor of oxygen and the doorway through which oxygen enters the cells. Due to many factors the body is deficient in plant derived Linolenic acid. This leads to cellular oxygen deficiencies, which leads to tumor cells. It is no accident that Johanna Budwigs’ discovery and use of fresh pressed flax oil with cottage cheese did such a good job of helping people to heal from cancer. In the 1950’s she had a 90% success rate at helping people to heal from cancer. To address this Linolenic fatty acid deficiency we introduce you to the world’s finest seed oil extracts called Andrea’s Seed Oils. The proprietary technology and extraction process used to make the Andrea’s Seed Oils captures the full value of the oil. The seed are pressed at the lowest temperature of any oil on the market,

only 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The oils are immediately stored in Miron Glass. Miron Glass is a dark violet glass that uniquely protects the oils from light. Thus preventing oxidation. These oils and the glass in which they are stored are so alive and preserved that they have a shelf life of 3 years stored at room temperature. Tests done on Andrea’s seed oils show they have zero oxidation. Virtually all only supposedly high quality seed oils stored in dark bottles and kept under refrigeration are already 20 to 30% oxidized by the time you use them. Taking the Andrea’s Flax Seed Oil will contribute to your kidneys and all other tissues of the body utilize oxygen. Coriander Seed Oil is uniquely able to help eliminate candida from the body. Candida always overgrows in a sick acidic body. When suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease, the body is acid, low oxygen and has candida and viruses to deal with. Andrea’s Wecker is a man who was dying from a candida overgrowth and Chrons disease. By consuming these specially processed Flax and Coriander seed oils his candida overgrowth and Chrons went away and he regained his health back. To recover kidney health, consider it an essential component to also get rid of candida and all pathogenic viruses. Therefore taking Coriander Seed Oil and Flax oil pressed in this unique, low temperature, proprietary process as essential to regaining back your ideal health. KDN Medix, is a Russian invention that supplies Nano particles of herbal materials that are designed to activate the adult stems cells already in the kidney and convert them into brand new, fully functional kidney cells. One case history with kidney failure reported very positive results from using KDN Medix. There are two aspects to the circulatory system in the human body. Of the 60,000 miles of blood vessels in the body, 24% of them are the major arteries, veins and arterioles, 74% of the circulation of the body is the capillary system. Capillaries are 1/10th the diameter of a human hair. Blood cells can only go through single file. This is the area where all the oxygen and nutrients pass through the one cell layer thick capillary wall and get into the tissues. This is also where all the CO2 and cellular wastes are supposed to come into capillary, to exit in the venous system, to be routed to the lungs, liver and kidneys for excretion. This capillary system can also be called the Microcirculation. This microcirculation system is the majority of our circulation in our bodies. Under ideal conditions of health the blood will complete 30 to 50 circulations in this microcirculation system every 10 minutes. Under conditions of ill health it will slow down to as low as only one circulation every 10 minutes. Wait a minute, if the blood is not reaching the trillions of cells in a timely manner, then that will result in CO2 and metabolic waste accumulation and nutrients not reaching the cells. Yes, this is exactly what is happening in all cases of chronic disease. Whether you are 25 or 85 this is a real phenomenon that

occurs to many people. Chronic disease has a diminished microcirculation as a causative factor. In 1998 German Scientists figured out this microcirculation subject and patented a technology to address it. This technology feeds the body a pulsed Electro Magnetic Field that exactly mimics the frequencies the body needs. They discovered that the body’s natural microcirculation system runs on a 10 to 30 hertz widow with a range of 400 to 1200 double saw toothed stimulation signals per second. That means that the relaxation point of the microcirculation blood vessel system occurs at 400 stimulation points per second and the contraction of the microcirculation system occurs at 1200 stimulation points per second. Since this is the exact frequencies the body’s microcirculation operates on, when the body is feed these exact frequencies for only 8 minutes the microcirculation is restored to a more youthful state for 12 to 16 hours. This patented technology is built in to the device called the Bemer. Bemer stands for Bio Electric Magnetic Energy Regulation. Since kidney function has its own microcirculation system that becomes compromised when in a state of disease, what do you think might happen after 8 minutes on the Bemer paid device? That’s right the microcirculation is restored to a more youthful state. What do you think might happen to kidney function when this happens? The kidneys and all other parts of the body get to catch up on detoxification. Once all toxins are removed from the kidneys then the kidneys are able to get to work on healing themselves. For anyone whose profession it is to help people restore their health back to an ideal state, they are going to look at this technology and see that this has been the missing piece. Now all those great herbs, vitamins, minerals from food or supplements can reach more of the cells of the body and more of the wastes can exit. When this exchange occurs in a more youthful manner, an accelerated rate of progress at regaining ideal health back is the result. Here is a before and after video, after 8 minutes on the Bemer – see the change in microcirculation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDs7r-cXwys What Kind of Fluids Will Most Support Kidney Health? The type and quantity of fluid is yet another important topic to consider when it comes to helping your kidneys back to ideal health. Water is by far the most important liquid needed to hydrate, nourish and detoxify all cells of the body. Water can vary in quality, purity and ability to hydrate immensely depending upon what environment it has been in. Regular municipally treated water has chlorine, chloramine, possibly fluoride and aluminum in them and is not fit for human consumption. Bottle waters have been sitting in bottles and exposed to many unfavorable frequencies in transit and on store shelves. Water has memory so you want to drink water with only positive memory or no memory recorded into it at all.

The two technologies capable of delivering purified water with positive memory, and properly structure so that it will readily hydrate the trillions of cells of your body are Electron Water and MRET treated water. Electron Water is a unique patented distiller technology that mimics the way nature makes purified water. In nature the Sun causes water to evaporate off the earth’s surface. As the water vapor is ascending into the heavens it is being ionized by Sunlight, thus purifying it and energizing it. The water vapor eventually forms clouds and comes down as rain. Pure snow melt water or rainwater used to be an ideal means of getting pure water that will bless every cell of your body. Due to man-made pollutants in our environment, it may not be safe to drink most rain or melted snow. Thanks to the invention of the Electron Water Distiller you can now make the purest water possible with the same attributes as sun-kissed water. That’s right when you use the Electron Distiller, it will heat the water causing it to evaporate, then condense and evaporate over 400 times before it comes out as drops of pure water. In this process the water vapor is exposed to ionizing light in the distillation chamber. So the water is being made 100% pure of viruses and energized as well. It is claimed that the water has 3000 times more energy. This water also to becomes a wider bond angle than any other water. Typical water has a 104-degree bond angle. Imagine the shape of a V to represent the water molecule bond angel. This V is normally only 104 degrees wide. After the 400 or so evaporations and condensations while exposed to ionizing light the entire time, the bond angle of the water goes to 114 degrees. This widening of the bond angle appears to be causing the water molecule to cause better hydration. Based upon client feed back over many years the results with improvements in health definitively show that Electron Water is vastly superior to ionized water, reverse osmosis, spring waters, filtered waters, and many other types of water. This is the only kind of water I drink when at home. Testimony for Electron Water: Joe Kinyon: Feels younger and has less colds or flu’s since drinking Electron 5 Water. Audio File of Joe: If the Electron Distiller is outside of your budget or if you want to amp up the power of the Electron Water even more, you want to consider getting the MRET water treatment device. The MRET stands for Molecular Resonance Effect Technology. It is based upon the research of Igor Smirnov, Ph.D. who designed a special crystalline polymer. When activated by an external magnetic field and oscillating light, the polymer generates subtle, piezoelectric, low frequency vibration, which are communicated to the water without physical contact. Water

produced via MRET technology carries frequencies, which are very similar to the Earth’s Schuman resonance. It also carries the full spectrum of light frequencies from the Sun. This provides a harmonious blend of life-supporting vibratory information delivered through the water. The resulting water retains coherent structure for a long period of time. Here is a microscopic picture of water crystal formation after treatment with MRET: MRET Angel Water:

The comparative picture of tumor-bearing mice on Non-activated water and on MRET Activated water (optimal activation time 30 minutes) is presented on Pic 2.

Pic 2: The appearance of mice from “control” (A) and “preventive treatment” groups

(optimal activation time 30 minutes) (В) on the 18th day after ascitic Ehrlich carcinoma cell inoculation. The incredible health benefits of MRET water were demonstrated in the process of several microbiological investigations*: Oncology Research on 500 mice; Staphylococcal Infection Research on 400 mice; numerous experiments on the antibacterial, sterilizing effects of MRET water; the stimulating effect on the metabolic activity of complex microbiological associations similar to microbiological flora in the intestine; inhibited growth of mutated cells; enhanced morphology of red blood cells; as well as the significant rebounding effect on white blood cells during chemotherapy treatments.** Theoretically, consuming MRET activated water could significantly enhances homeostasis, metabolism, immune response and factors such as phagocytosis, and the body’s natural resistance to bacteria, viruses and other pathogenic microorganisms. Unique Properties and Benefits of MRET Activated Water

§ Compatible with cell water § Enhanced hydration capacities, making it easily absorbed by body’s

tissues § Penetration and extermination time nearly 3 times faster than regular

water § Improved nutrient transport and assimilation § Waste elimination process and time accelerated and improved § Detoxification increased from enhanced cellular hydration § Metabolism increased § Healthy cell regeneration time increased § Enhanced homeostasis of the body § Slows aging process, because aging is closely related to cell dehydration § Improved look of skin, hair and nails § Antibacterial, sterilizing effect: inhibits growth of bacteria, viruses and

mutated cells § Supports normal, healthy cell activity § Immune system response enhanced

To learn more go to MRETWATERNOW.com What you eat plays one of the biggest roles in your health or disease. When dealing with Chronic Kidney Disease, your body is excessively acidic. You need to consume foods that in the end will support your body’s full recovery and ability to stay more alkaline. Getting some pH paper and starting to keep track of your saliva and at times your urine pH will acquaint you with a vitally important aspect of your health. The healthiest people with the most energy and longevity maintain a saliva pH of 7 to 7.4. Eating a more plant-based diet will serve you in achieving a more alkaline pH. Eating easy to digest proteins like One World Whey and taking supplemental Amino Acids in the Form of All Basic or All Basic

Plus. Supplementing with One World Whey and free form amino acids will reduce your dietary protein needs immensely and accelerate the rate at which your kidneys can return to ideal health. Including raw milk from grass fed cows or goats may be another excellent addition to your health recovery program. There is a very powerful immune support yogurt that you can make in your home that will only support your kidneys healing. Bravo Probiotic was developed by Dr. Marco Ruggerio MD from Italy. When you inoculate your grass fed sterilized milk, with Bravo Probiotic and culture it for 48 hours, you will produce a delicious tasting yogurt with up to 3 grams of naturally occurring GcMAF per liter. GcMAF is a powerful immune system promoting protein sugar. When the body is in a healthy state, it produces enough of this GcMAF to keep it free of viruses and tumors. When viruses or tumors weaken the body, there is an enzyme called nagalase produced by these viruses and tumors. Nagalase stops the body’s production of this essential immune protein-sugar called GcMAF. Buy consuming a GcMAF rich yogurt you can help to resurrect your immune system so that health can return to all parts of your body. Bravo Probiotic Dr. Marco Ruggerio’s presentation at the Autism One Conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPsVpuYw11c I do not yet know if Dr. Marco Ruggerio’s diet recommendations of meat and vegetables are the best diet personally. However I recommend that when you do prepare meats for consumption that you cooked them via steam or boiling. Dry heat cooking causing the creation of toxic Advanced Glycation End-products AGE’s. AGE’s are toxic to the body and deposit into tissues, thus damaging the kidneys or whatever part of the body you are concerned about improving. Personally I am consuming mostly a plant-based diet with lots of fruits and vegetables and their juices and only small amounts of flesh foods cooked in water only, when I crave them, which is about 3 days per week. How to make Bravo: To watch instructional video on how to make the Bravo Yogurt click on the image below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_Iu4EXMW2U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dD5EMU1Kj6A Dosing guidelines: It is recommended to have the Bravo probiotic yoghurt after a main meal of protein and leafy greens. It is recommended to take the Bravo Probiotic Yoghurt for a minimum of 3 months, but may be best to consume for 8 to 12 months depending upon your current state of health. Holding a spoonful in the mouth for

90 seconds may help to get some of the beneficial properties absorbed through the mouth. If you do this, then do not rinse the mouth with anything for 30 minutes after doing this. Autistic children start at 1ml/day, increasing by 1ml/day according to symptoms. Most reach 20ml/day but some may even get as high as 50 ml/day. We suggest using a syringe. Adults with gut issues or chronic health issues such as cancer or chronic fatigue start at 5 ml per day increasing by 5ml per day up to 100ml per day. If you are using 2 oz. 2x per day or 100ml total per day, then this will last you for 20 2oz servings. I personally make ½ gallon at a time and consume 1 to 2 cups per day. It only makes me feel good and my intestines work great. Bravo Probiotic Yoghurt is now available in the USA from Synergistic Nutrition at sgn80.com. Kidney Improvement Testimonies; Synergy One is the new name for Chrysalis “I  suffered  from  the  shock  of  kidney  failure,  which  left  me  hospitalized  for  some  eight  months.  Through  the  entire  experience  I  had  to  go  through  the  horrible  ordeal  of  dialysis.  When  I  finally  was  released  from  the  hospital  I  still  had  to  go  to  dialysis  three  times  a  week  and  it  was  scheduled  for  the  rest  of  my  life.      I  started  to  take  Chrysalis  from  Synergistic  Nutrition  to  see  if  it  would  restore  my  energy  because  the  dialysis  treatments  really  left  me  drained.  The  spray  not  only  restored  my  energy  level  as  I  had  hoped  but  to  my  glorious  surprise  the  Chrysalis  returned  to  me  my  kidney  function  to  where  my  medical  doctor  told  me  that  I  didn't  need  dialysis  treatments  anymore  and  that  it  is  truly  rare  that  my  kidneys  are  working  again.        At  my  request  Stephen  Heuer  of  Synergistic  Nutrition  supplied  me  with  an  excellent  diet  plan  that  included  Quantum  quality  supplements  designed  to  ensure  that  I  would  never  have  to  return  to  that  dreaded  "treatment  machine"  again.        It's  been  three  years  now  and  my  test  results  are  still  strong.        Thanks  Synergistic  Nutrition,  L.  A.  Rogers    Louis  Rogers  Audio  Testimony  Here:    Dear  Synergistic  Nutrition,  I  have  used  Kidney  Well  for  five  years  and  credit  it  with  helping  me  keep  my  Creatinine  level  in  the  normal  range.  Five  years  ago  I  lost  my  left  kidney  to  cancer.  That's  when  I  started  taking  Kidney  Well  and  it  kept  me  and  my  one  kidney  in  fine  health.  In  October  2009,  I  was  surprised  to  find  out  that  cancer  had  formed  on  my  one  remaining  kidney.  

Fortunately,  it  was  operable,  but  I  was  told  the  functionality  of  the  80%  of  my  one  kidney  ranged  from  barely  hopeful  to  no  chance  at  all  because  it  had  been  seriously  damaged  by  diabetes.  My  Nephrologist  (kidney  specialist)  is  no  fan  of  supplements,  but  my  belief  in  Kidney  Well  had  me  back  on  track  as  soon  as  I  was  out  of  the  hospital.  Although  at  that  time  I  was  suffering  from  full  Renal  failure  (creatinine  was  at  7.2)  I  was  immediately  placed  on  dialysis.  Three  months  later,  to  the  disbelief  of  many  doctors,  I  was  released  from  dialysis.  I  am  convinced  that  Kidney  Well  was  the  major  contributor  to  my  good  renal  health.      Thank  you,  very,  very  much,  Al  Vignato    This  is  a  transcript  of  an  audio  testimony  below:    Stephen:  Valentine's  Day  2005  so  that's  February  14th  2005  and  I'm  in  the  office  with  Anita  Tausere  who  is  a  client  who  came  into  my  office  three  or  so  years  ago  with  kidney  failure  or  at  least  close  to  kidney  failure  and  she's  returning  and  going  to  give  us  a  recording  of  her  experience  of  trying  some  products  and  how  they  helped  her  with  that  problem...      A  million  thanks  to  Cocoon  Nutrition  today  that  I  have  my  life  back.  It's  Valentine's  Day  today  and  I  haven't  received  any  gift  or  any  balloons  from  my  husband  this  morning  and  I  was  thinking  on  my  way  to  Cocoon  that  it  doesn't  matter  because  three  years  ago  he  found  Cocoon  Nutrition  for  me  when  the  doctor  had  put  me  on  life  time  pills  for  my  kidney  because  I  am  a  diabetic  and  my  kidney  was  totally  damaged  and  I  was  on  my  way  to  dialyses  and  at  37  years  of  age  I  don't  think  I  would  want  to  go  there  at  all.  I  have  a  six  year  old  son  and  I'm  totally,  totally  so  very  thankful  for  Stephen's  life  and  Cocoon  Nutrition  that  totally  healed  me.  I  purchased  a  bottle  of  Kidney  Well  and  on  my  second  to  third  day  the  pain  totally  left  me.  My  kidney  was  spilling  a  lot  of  protein  in  my  [urine]  and  I  went  back  for  a  test  after  a  week  to  the  doctor  and  the  doctor  told  me  there  is  no  spillage  of  protein  totally...      Stephen:  Wow!    Anita:  ...not  at  all  and  I  was  very  shocked.  So,  wherever  Stephen  moves  I  am  moving.  I'm  following  him.  And  yeah  Cocoon  Nutrition  has  the  best  stuff  and  here  today  I  almost  purchased  about  $200  worth  of  stuff.  Hey  it's  your  life.  So,  we  go  out  there  and  by  this  dress  and  all  these  shoes  and  for  nothing  when  you  don't  even  have  your  health,  when  you  don't  have  your  life,  there's  no  point.  So,  I  thank  you  Stephen  and  Cocoon.  Anita    Anita’s  Audio  Testimony  here:    Thank  God  for  directing  us  to  Stephen  Heuer,  Nutripath  and  Dr.  Barry  Chantrelle,  renal  specialist  who  was  the  only  open  minded  doctor  to  support  Stephen's  nutritional  program.    Together  with  conventional  and  un-­‐conventional  expertise,  myself,  Albert  Gilbert,  who  is  a  recovered  Kidney  Dialysis  patient,  received  a  call  from  Dr.  Chantrelle  

stating  that  with  2  more  visits  he  wouldn't  need  to  see  me  anymore.  My  kidneys  are  fully  functioning.  I  would  advise  anyone  who  is  in  a  crisis  situation  with  their  health  in  any  capacity  to  just  try  this  vitamin  therapy,  work  with  your  doctor  also,  it  will  be  one  of  the  best  things  you  could  have  done  for  your  self  or  loved  one.  P.S.  I'm  65,  I  am  a  living  testimony,  it  works,  and  the  doctor  said  I  would  be  on  dialysis  forever.  I  am  now  Free  to  Live.    What  if  it  works  for  you?  Albert  Gilbert    The  Products  And  Technologies  Recommended  In  This  Report  That  Support  A  Return  Of  Ideal  Kidney  Health  Are  As  Follows:   LiyfZyme: ½ to 1tsp of powder per meal or 5 to 10 caps per meal. N-Sorb: Addresses systemic enzyme needs that are taken between meals. Take 1 scoop with 4oz of water and 1 scoop of Prodosomes, mix and drink. Take away from food so as to allow enzymes best opportunity to absorb through intestines and into blood stream. These are enzymes that work specifically in the pH range of the blood. Chitosan aka Trident: Has been shown to help people with kidney failure. With only 45 milligrams taken 3x per day, it worked to lower urea, cholesterol and increase hemoglobin production. Patients noticed increases in energy and appetite from consuming Chitosan.32. Recommended dosage: 1 tsp. mixed in water for 3 days and if no pathogen die off reactions increase to 3x per day. Prodovite: 1 ounce 2 to 4x per day optimally 30 minutes before food, but can be taken after a meal as well. Helps correct cell metabolism so that body and blood pH can return too normal. Please watch these videos to see how powerful Prodovite is: 30 minute educational presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmaTDLEPOwE Improved blood circulation in 5 minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsFhY92Fhv0 Most amazing of all this series of lectures on all the products from VNI: http://onthepathtovictory.com/ Fish Oils: EPA/DHA 1 capsule 2-3x per day with meals. Flax Oils: 2 to 6 tablespoons per day, mixed with One World Whey drinks or Bravo Yogurt or with raw nut butter mixed with a cut up apple.

Do not consume past 4pm as it may give you too much energy and prevent you from sleeping. ThionExtra: 2caps 2x per day to support glutathione and Super Oxide Dismutase production. SOD is particularly powerful; it can neutralize one million free radicals.

Kidney Well II: 15 day supply at 4 caps, 2 times per day suggested usage. As a Dietary Supplement, take 4 capsules 2 times daily on an empty stomach with water, 30 minutes before meals or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. Holistrol: 2 caps 2-3x per day depending upon needs. Alkabase: ¼ to ½ tsp. 2x per day. May be very helpful to some people in their recovery of whole body health. Synergy One: 3 sprays in the cheek area inside the mouth at bedtime and upon arising. Hold in the cheek area or under the tongue for 90 seconds before swallowing. Coriander Seed Oil: 5 drops 3x per day work your way up to 1tsp per day. Flax Seed Oil: 1 Tablespoon 2 to 4x per day. KDN Medix: 20 drops taken in the a.m. with Prodovite or with Prodovite in water is fine. Bravo Probiotic Yoghurt: It is recommended to have the Bravo probiotic yoghurt after a main meal of protein and leafy greens. It is recommended to take the Bravo Probiotic Yoghurt for a minimum of 3 months, but may be best to consume for 8 to 12 months depending upon your current state of health. Holding a spoonful in the mouth for 90 seconds may help to get some of the beneficial properties absorbed through the mouth. If you do this, then do not rinse the mouth with anything for 30 minutes after doing this. Autistic children start at 1ml/day, increasing by 1ml/day according to symptoms. Most reach 20ml/day but some may even get as high as 50 ml/day. We suggest using a syringe. Adults with gut issues or chronic health issues such as cancer or chronic fatigue start at 5 ml per day increasing by 5ml per day up to 100ml per day. If you are using 2 oz. 2x per day or 100ml total per day, then this will last you for 20 2oz servings. I personally make ½ gallon at a time and consume 1 to 2 cups per day. It only makes me feel good and my intestines work great. Magnesium from ReMag: In an effort to lower excess phosphorus and calcium, which are commonly high in someone with CKD, taking supplemental magnesium has proven helpful in one patient of Dr. Carolyn Dean MD ND.
