September 26 — Holistic Serendipity: A New Paradigm in Holistic Pet Care

SPECIAL GUEST:
Dr. Michael Kiriac, inventor and formulator of Bio-Algae Concentrates (BAC),
will attend this teleconference and be available to answer questions at the end.

Holistic serendipity is realizing unintended results from using holistic options. Russell will explain how using a revolutionary whole food product can yield some very amazing, unexpected, holistic results. This is the benefit of activating a pet’s natural ability to heal from within versus from without as with supplements. Even if your pet is still young and free of any symptoms, if you want to extend the life of your pet and avoid the expense of common degenerative diseases, you need to attend.

Some examples of holistic serendipity are:

• Saved pet’s lives
• Generated soft and shiny coat
• Mitigated fear of thunderstorms
• Eliminated fear or aggressive behavior towards other animals

Oil of the month

Antimicrobial/Antibacterial Treatment for Cyst

I recently developed a cyst on my buttock. One week before, I had a tooth extracted but was not given antibiotics. I suspect the bacteria from the tooth needed someplace to collect and the wisdom of the body encapsulated the bacteria in a cyst. In three short weeks, the cyst grew to the size of half a golf ball. It was very painful to sit down or move. I immediately started to use Purification oil blend topically. This seemed to stop the growth and even reduce the size a little but the cyst would not go away and was soft and filled with fluids. After three weeks, I started taking Dr. Friedmann's antimicrobial essential oil blend internally. According to Dr. Terry Friedmann, MD, this is a blend that should be reserved for chronic bacterial, fungal, viral infection, or for acute viral and bacterial infections, which could "slow you down" or lead to more serious complications. This is a very powerful combination of therapeutic-grade essential oils and should not be used indiscriminately. I believe he indicated that the use of this formula should be "saved" for real emergencies and that we should endeavor to build our immune systems to ward off the garden variety of ailments. In other words, use this formula only in specific serious situations rather than preventive or maintenance, because we are dealing with a "powerful battleship" here! Within 24 hours of taking Dr. Friedmann's antimicrobial essential oil blend the cyst burst and drained out. (I would be happy to discuss this powerful essential oil blend with anyone. I did not publish the formula here to prevent its indiscriminate usage and to protect those who are not used to taking therapeutic-grade essential oils internally.)

After another week of using Purification topically and Dr. Friedmann's antimicrobial essential oil blend internally, the cyst was reduced to 90% of its original size and became hard and flat. But I noticed my body was breaking out in boils on my head and elsewhere. So, I finally decided to get a prescription of antibiotics to eliminate the remaining bacteria in my body. Sometimes Western medicine does have its place.

EMFs (Electromagnetic Frequencies): Hidden Danger for People and Pets

by Russell Louie

Research shows there may be a link between EMFs (Electromagnetic Frequencies) generated by high-voltage power transmission lines, radio antennas, TV transmission and microwave towers. But if one doesn't live near such EMF generators, should one be concerned about EMFs? Think about this recent fact: more people have cell phones today than land-line telephones. It is estimated that there are over one billion cell phone users worldwide. Now add to that cell phone usage the following:

We are constantly being bombarded by harmful EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) from these devices. The side effects of EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) have been shown in research to disrupt the body's normal rhythm. These harmful EMF waves, therefore, affect the body's biochemical communication processes which include our immune and entire endocrine (glandular) systems. According to studies, these dangerous electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can lead to a significant increase in blood pressure, defective cell metabolism, tissue and DNA damage and even affect the biological processes of the brain as measured in electroencephalograms (EEGs). This could be an invisible cause of every day stress and fatigue. Everyone needs protection from these dangers of EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) including our pets.

Could EMFs cause a person's adrenal glands or thyroid to become dysfunctional? Probably not by themselves unless you live near one of the strong EMF generators mention above. But consider this: what if one had a pre-genetic disposition to weak adrenals or thyroid gland or one's diet did not properly nourish those glands or one had a particularly stressful job and worked long hours to deplete those glands? Could the EMF waves now be a contributing factor to adrenal fatigue, malfunctioning thyroid gland, lack of sound sleep patterns, restlessness, irritability and poor metabolism? We think the answer is, YES.

Q-Link Products and Bioprotec Chips are the EMF Solution

The effects of EMF radiation from old fashion cathode ray tube computer monitors was graphically demonstrated to me when I replaced the two that we had in our office with flat panel LCD monitors. The two cathode ray tube computer monitors were on opposite walls facing each other (7 ft apart) while I sat in between the two desks. I frequently rolled from one computer to the other. As someone pointed out, this was like sitting in between two microwave generating towers. I was frying my body in between these two EMF generating devices. After replacing the conventional computer monitors with two LCD flat panel monitors, I no longer had trouble getting to sleep at night after working on the computers past midnight (bad habit!). My body was less stressed and my moods were better. This proved to me that EMF-protecting devices such as the Q-Link pendants and Bioprotec chips are needed to mitigate the disruptive effects of EMF-generating appliances we use every day. I wear a Q-Link pendant and have Biopreotc chips on all our cell phones, PDAs, wireless office and home phones and laptop computer to reduce stress, produce greater focus and promote better sleep. I even put one on our sensitive Chihuahua mix, Mikki. (Russell Louie)

Bioprotec Chips Animal Tested

Upon receiving our first shipment of Bioprotec Cell Phone Chips, BioProtec All-Purpose Chips and Bioprotec All-Purpose Super Chips, I unpacked them and laid them on my desk next to the laptop to count. Our newly adopted cat, Cajun, promptly laid down directly on top of the Bioprotec All-Purpose Super Chip and put his head on the pile of Bioprotec Cell Phone Chips and literally fell asleep. So, the Bioprotec chips have been field tested by our cat and I can confirm that they do indeed alleviate the harmful effects of electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) and radiation waves emanating from my laptop, wireless keyboard and mouse on my desk. I guess we need to get Cajun a Q-Link Pet Link pendant.

The Body Electric: Electromagnetism and the Foundation of Life by Robert Becker, Gary Selden

If you think the concepts that our bodies have energy fields or that electromagnetic fields could have an effect on our health is a bunch of New Age "hooey" with no scientific foundation, you'll learn otherwise when you read this book. This ground-breaking book, first published in 1985, describes the pioneering research of Dr. Robert Becker who discovered that electrical fields are used by animals to regenerate limbs and by humans to mend broken bones. At the time he was conducting this research, he was ostracized by the scientific community for his unconventional thinking. However, by the time I broke my wrist in 1988, his findings on bone regeneration had been proven and were being used by mainstream medical doctors in devices like the electrical bone stimulator that I wore on my wrist to facilitate its healing (which I found very exciting having recently read his book). His work helped legitimize the concept that electromagnetic fields exist in and affect the body. Dr. Becker also became very concerned about the effects of "electropollution" on the body, which he discusses at greater length in his follow-up book, Cross Currents.
