Diabetes is said to be caused from a fungal infection according to 3 retired World Health Organization doctors. See http://members.aol.com/jfoverlag/fungalbionics/ for excerpts (free).
If you want more, see http://z11.invisionfree.com/Health_411/index.php?showtopic=179 Dr. Holland lists the diseases shown in the books above. This used to be on Mercola's site. I can't seem to locate it. But I have permission to have it on my site.
Note that the fact that this could be a fungal disorder, it can be controlled with diet, exercise and natural anti-fungals. Many people on this site and on mine have used this same diet to heal all types of problems.
Let me know if I can be of more help. E-mail me. I don't get over here too often any more

Weeeeell, as you can probably tell, since it took me a couple of days to check in here, I've been very busy.  New house, decorating, co-op is busy, kids (although, they don't take up too much time anymore), cats, and computer work. (My kids 17 and 20 stay in their rooms for the most part! )
I will definitely keep you in prayer for all your needs. That is so good, last semester of school then seminary! Cool. I wish you all the best the Lord has for you.

Connecticut man contracts anthrax from drums Non-contagious form of disease found in animal skins imported from Africa
Updated: 6:58 p.m. CT Sept 5, 2007 DANBURY, Conn. - A musician and a family member both contracted a non-contagious form of anthrax, apparently from imported animal skins used to make drums, officials said Wednesday.
Mayor Mark Boughton described one of the individuals as a renowned African drummer and drummaker who stored untanned animal hides obtained from areas of the world where anthrax is common.
A spokesman for the state Department of Public Health, Bill Gerrish, said a second member of the same family also had the disease. Both apparently had the cutaneous form of anthrax, which is not contagious and can usually be treated with antibiotics.
The public’s health is not threatened, Boughton said at a news conference.
Cutaneous anthrax, the most common form of the bacterial infection, can cause reddening and swelling of the skin. There usually are only one to two cases per year in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
FBI agents were notified, but state public health officials were handling the investigation, said Marybeth Miklos, a spokeswoman for the FBI’s New Haven field office. “We are aware of it, but as of right now it is not anything terrorism-related,” Miklos said.
The state Department of Public Health took about a dozen hides that had been stored in a shed on the man’s property. The drums were not finished, so officials said anthrax would not have spread beyond where the man had worked.
State officials said the hides were part of a recent shipment believed to be from Africa. The FBI and U.S. Department of Agriculture were working to determine whether hides from the same shipment had been sent elsewhere in the country.
The owner of the home, Donald Lombardo, identified the tenant as Ase-AmenRa Kariamu and said he has not seen Kariamu for several weeks. Kariamu is the director of the West Afrikan Drumming program at the Danbury Music Centre. His private phone number is unpublished. Messages seeking comment were left for him at the music center.

Mineral Foundation Powder
I do make and use my own. You have to play with it quite a bit to get it where you want it. My cousin works for Mac Cosmetics. Is a regional trainer for that line and tells me that she can spot a Bare Escentuals lady right away. She says most don't blend the colors correctly. Or chose the wrong shades to begin with.
That is the problem I find in making it and selling on-line. I really like sitting down with someone and matching their skin tone.
Start with Kaolin clay - white. Add red and/or green facial clays to the tone you need. Always use with a light moisturizer!! You need the moisture to bond the powder to the skin.
I generally start with 20 Tablespoons of Kaolin in a container. Add about 1/3 the amount of red, in this case about 4 Tablespoons then about 1 teaspoon of green clay. Yes, you need the green to tone down the red.
Add more White to lighten, more green for olive complexion, more red for a redder tone. Red and green for darker/tanned tone. Red and white for more pink.
This will make a good tan as well when you use the red and green with a touch of white.
A cover up for blemishes is white with a pinch of green. Dab on the offending spot with your finger then dust with your base color.
You need one of those big round flat-tipped brushes to blend over the skin well.
If you get too much in one place wipe with a tissue and either leave or if you wipe too much add a bit more base.
After several days you will get the hang of it.
If you use too much moisturizer it will make the powder too oily and make it too red. I take a bit with me in a small container such a prescription bottle for touch ups.
Cleanse well at night and DO NOT USE around the tender eye areas!
Let me know if you have questions.

Modern medical mysteries Posted on Sun, Aug. 26, 2007Digg del.icio.us AIM reprint print email BY DAVE BARRY (This classic Dave Barry column was originally published Sept. 8, 1996.)
We here at the Bureau of Medical Alarm hope you had a restful, carefree, fun-filled summer. But before you get back into ''the swing of things'' for fall, we'd like to take just a moment to remind you that practically everything can kill you.
At the moment, we are particularly concerned about: LATEX GLOVES OF DEATH. We have here a Health Advisory issued June 27 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (motto: ``We Have Not Yet Determined That Our Motto Is Safe''). This advisory, which was sent in by several alert medical people, begins with the following statement: ``In the spring and summer of 1995, the spontaneous combustion of powder-free latex patient examination gloves caused four fires in different states.''
The advisory states that all four fires involved large quantities of gloves stored in hot warehouses. But we here at the Bureau of Medical Alarm are asking ourselves: What if a single glove (this is sometimes called the ''Lone Glove'' theory) was to burst into flames? What if this happened while the glove was on a doctor's hand? And what if the doctor's hand was, at that very moment, inside your personal body? One thing that would happen, of course, is the doctor would charge you a lot of money. The underlying philosophy of our entire health-care system is that the more scary, painful, dangerous and unnecessary a medical procedure is, the more it should cost. So you would definitely pay top dollar to have a flaming glove thrust into what is technically known as the Booty Region. Once word of this lucrative new procedure got around, doctors would be prescribing it for athlete's foot.
And here's a related item to be concerned about: An alert dental surgeon named Ian Hamilton sent me the June 1996 newsletter of the Canterbury Branch of the New Zealand Dental Association, which contains a letter to the editor, accompanied by a photograph, concerning a latex medical glove that was found to have a moth embedded in one of the fingers. Yes. This means you could wind up with a burning rubberized insect inside your body. Imagine the bill you'd get for that:
Flaming Booty Moth Treatment (FBMT)-$578,000
Recharge Fire Extinguisher-$23
Damage To Doctor's Golf Grip-$54,000,000,000
We know what you're wondering at this point. You're wondering: 'Wouldn't `The Flaming Booty Moths' be a great name for a rock band?'' Yes, it would. But right now you have other important medical things to worry about, such as:
DEADLY ITEMS UP YOUR NOSE. We have here a news item from the Denver Post, written by Jim Kirksey and sent in by many alert readers, concerning a man who arrived at a hospital ''with a device in his sinus cavity that potentially had the explosive force of five powerful M-80 firecrackers.'' The device was a trigger used to deploy automobile air bags; the man worked at a factory that manufactures the triggers, and an explosion had caused one of them to become -- in the words of a surgeon -- ``lodged into his nose.''
Fortunately, the device was safely removed, but the doctors were very nervous that it might go off during the surgery. Here at the Bureau of Medical Alarm we are wondering: Why doesn't the federal government require auto manufacturers to warn us that air bags contain devices that could be deadly if we get them up our noses? This is especially critical if we have very young children, who can get anything up their noses. Very young children can get things up their noses that are larger than their bodies. We think the government should require that the following statement be printed on automobile steering wheels:
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW VERY YOUNG CHILDREN TO DISASSEMBLE THE AIR BAG AND INSERT THE EXPLOSIVE TRIGGER DEVICE WAY UP THEIR NOSE, AS THIS COULD RESULT IN YOUR HAVING TO SPEND THE REST OF YOUR MORTAL LIFE TRYING TO EXPLAIN THINGS TO YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY. ALSO YOU SHOULD NOT ATTEMPT TO READ THIS WARNING WHILE OPERATING THIS ... LOOK OUT! (CRASH) TOO LATE.
On a related medical note, we received a letter from Gail White, who works at a large hospital that shall remain nameless, and who relates the following incident:
``A man appeared at the emergency room with his hands over his face, demanding to see a male doctor, and to see him alone. A doctor (dreading to see some horrible disfigurement) complied with his wishes. When the man removed his hands, he was revealed to have a brassiere caught in his nose by the hooks.''
No, we do not know how the brassiere got caught there. Nor do we know how many men are, right now, suffering from Brassiere Nose, but are too embarrassed to seek medical treatment. Our best guess is thousands. If you are one of these unfortunate people, we urge you to seek medical help; your doctor can tell you about a revolutionary new procedure to correct this condition. Tell him you definitely want the moth.

Cancer Industry
"Dr. James Watson won a Nobel Prize for determining the shape of DNA. During the 1970's, he served two years on the National Cancer Advisory Board. In 1975, he was asked about the National Cancer Program. He declared, 'It's a bunch of s**t.'
"In 1953, a United States Senate Investigation reported that a conspiracy existed to suppress effective cancer treatments. The Senator in charge of the investigation conveniently died. The investigation was halted. It was neither the first nor the last of a number of strange deaths involving people in positions to do damage to those running the nation's cancer program.
"In 1964, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) spent millions of dollars to stop an alternative cancer treatment which had cured hundreds, if not thousands, of cancer patients according to documented records. It was later disclosed that the FDA had falsified the testimony of witnesses. The FDA lost the court case because the jury found the defendants innocent and recommended that the substance be objectively evaluated. It never was. Instead, it was totally suppressed.
"In the early 1960's, two New York City doctors, one associated with the leading cancer center in America and the other the medical director of a Brooklyn hospital, decided to inject live cancer cells into 22 unknowing patients. When they were discovered, Dr. Chester M. Southam of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and Dr. E.E. Mandel of the Jewish Chronic Disease Hospital of Brooklyn were put on "probation" for a year. The three physicians who "blew the whistle" on Dr. Southam and Dr. Mandel were dismissed.
"For many years, the American Medical Association (AMA) and the American Cancer Society (ACS) coordinated their "hit" lists of innovative cancer reseachers who were to be ostracized. One investigative reporter declared the AMA and ACS "for a network of vigilantes prepared to pounce on anyone who promotes a cancer therapy that runs against their substantial prejudices and profits."
"In the late 1950's, it was learned that Dr. Henry Welch, head of the FDA's Division of Antibiotics, had secretly received $287,000 from the drug companies he was supposed to regulate. In 1975, an independent government evaluation of the FDA still found massive "conflicts of interest" among the agency's top personnel.
"In 1977, an investigative team from the prominent Long Island newspaper Newsday found serious "conflicts of interest" at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). In 1986, an organized cover-up of an effective alternative cancer therapy, orchestrated by NCI officials, was revealed during Congressional hearings.
"These examples are only the tip of a huge iceberg. The cancer establishment now has a 50-year history of vast corruption, incompetence and organized suppression of cancer therapies which actually work. Millions of people have suffered terrible torture and death because those in charge took payoffs, played it safe, had closed minds to the innovative, or simply were afraid to do what was obviously and morally right...
"The doctor's union (AMA), the cancer bureaucracy (NCI), the public relations fatcats (ACS) and the cancer cops (FDA) are conspiring to suppress a cure for cancer.... It would be easy for any Congressional committee, major newspaper, television network or national magazine to confirm and extend the evidence presented here in order to initiate radical reform of the critical cancer areas--the hospitals, the research centers, the government agencies, and especially state and local legislation regarding cancer treatment.
"But that will not happen without a struggle. Neither Congress nor the media desire to lift the manhole cover on this sewer of corruption and needless torture. Only organized, determined citizen opposition to the existing cancer treatment system has any hope of bringing about the long-needed changes. I expect the struggle to be a long, difficult one against tough, murderous opposition. The odds against success are heavy. The vested interests are very powerful.... "
Barry Lynes Taken from the introduction to The Healing of Cancer, The Cures-The Cover-ups and the Solution Now!
The mountain of evidence to support the collusive activities of Western governments, most particularly the United States, along with other prominent members of the Medical Industrial Complex, is beyond voluminous.
Nonetheless, it is beyond the scope of this Web site to present all the supporting facts. Instead, we have opted to present our case -- (some of which may seem tangential to "cancerolytic herbs," but virtually all of it provides the explanatory underpinnings as to why so many effective botanically-derived formulas have been suppressed) -- through the following excellent books. Below you will find pictures of their covers, along with links of cover enlargements and order pages on amazon.com. On page two we provide a brief summary that more directly addresses the suppression of cancerolytic ("cancer-killing" ) herbal preparations.

"The element iodine was used for the treatment of hypo- and hyperthyroidism (5) and for many other medical conditions.(18 ) For hyperthyroidism, the daily dose ranged from 6.25 mg to 180 mg elemental iodine in the form of Lugol solution with the most common intake of 90 mg achieving success rate as high as 90 percent. (5) "
"The bioavailability of a Lugol tablet (Iodoral® ) containing 12.5 mg [or 2 drops Lugol's Solution] elemental iodine was evaluated by measuring 24 hr urine levels of iodide together with the minerals, trace elements and toxic metals before and after administration of this preparation [iodine pill]. The results obtained following iodine supplementation revealed that in some subjects, the urine levels of mercury, lead and cadmium increased [excreting heavy metals!!!] by several fold after just one day of supplementation. For aluminum, this increased excretion was not observed usually until after one month or more on the iodine supplementation. Since this observation was made on a limited number of assays, it needs to be confirmed using a well designed protocol in a large number of patients.
Based on data available in the medical literature, urinary iodide levels are considered the best index of iodine intake.(3) The initial results of the bioavailability study suggested that the Lugol tablets were not well absorbed since only 20 to 30 percent of the administered amount was recovered in the 24 hr. urine collection of 5 subjects tested.3 Just in case medical textbooks were wrong, and the explanation for the low recovery of iodide is body retention of iodine/iodide, the supplementation was continued for one month and then urine iodide levels were measured again in the 24 hr. urine collection. Medical textbooks were wrong. The subjects excreted a mean of 50 percent of the amount ingested, with one subject excreting 96 percent of the ingested amount."
So, you will excrete any iodine you don't need!!! HA!

Healthee gave me some info a while back and it was probably mentioned on the YC last year as I had run a lot of info on it.
Here are some links: http://www.earthclinic.com/Remedies/iodine.html http://www.silvermedicine.org/altcancer/lugols.htm http://www.vrp.com/art/1781.asp http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/adrenal-info/ http://www.newswithviews.com/Howenstine/james33.htm http://www.newswithviews.com/Howenstine/james5.htm
The silvermedicine site is good, but they lost the iodine section! Maybe it was deleted! (Read the Iodine Safety Thread.)
First, let me say I have hypothyroidism. Dignosed by doctors and have been on meds for it for about 4 years now. I changed from Synthroid to Armour about 2 years ago and noticed substantial changes for the better, but still not like I was years before heavy mold exposure. I still have to supplement with Raw Thyroid on occasion. But the symptoms are always present, purple thumbnails and I wear a jacket almost until summer! I have been noticing that my hair has begun to fall out again as we have some mold in the house we are renting. So, I tried this iodine painting!
I painted my first circle, about the size of a dime on my inside wrist yesterday (3/29) about 5:50 p.m. and it was almost gone by 10:30 p.m.! I must be deficient as so many others have said it took 12 hours or so for it to disappear! With that one dime-sized circle I began to feel warmer but then got cold again, so I painted another circle on the other wrist just to see if I was warmer from the iodine or if it was a "Placebo effect." Well within an hour I was WARM! A nice toasty warm which I have not felt in years! I was able to take off a jacket I have been wearing daily! And I felt good! In fact, my fingernails which are normally purple, a sure sign of low-thyroid, truned pink! I'm really happy! In fact, I was so excited it was hard to get to sleep!
This morning I got up and painted another circle. There was almost no sign of where I painted last night, only a very faint color change like where you had a tan two summers ago!
Do any of you have experience with iodine??
earthclinic says the 3 items which every home needs are these: Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar, Iodine, and Hydrogen Peroxide!
Let me know what you know about this! Here is a post on earthclinic which go my attention:
9/16/2006: Here's a great email we received from Dan of Largo, FL.
"For a really insightful viewpoint on iodine, check out this lecture by Dr. David Brownstein (http://www.internetwks.com/clips/bsBCancer.rm) about iodine and its deficiency relationship to Breast Cancer. Note he also suspects an unproven relationship between an iodine deficiency and Prostate Cancer.
He mentions that the Japanese diet includes 14mg per day of iodine on the average (coastal Japanese ingest even more.) The US RDA is 150 ugs (micro grams) per day -- about 100 times less than the Japanese eat -- and the recommended upper level for iodine is no more than 1.1 mg/day, and they estimate the average requirement to be 95 micrograms per day or about 150 times less than the Japanese consume.
The 125mg Kelp tablets that I have from Vitamin Shoppe, have 225 ugs of iodine in them. Thus, to get to the Japanese level of Iodine (14 mg/day), I would have to take 62 of these tablets a day! Dr. Brownstein also states that iodine is stored in the thyroid which requires 6 mg/day and is also stored in a women's breasts and required for proper breast development. The breasts require 5 mg/day for a 110 lb woman.
And catch this... Breast cancer researchers have to starve test animals of iodine in order to be able to induce breast cancer in any significant number of them. Hmmm...
Another 2 mg/day of iodine is required by the adrenals, hypothalamus, pituitary, and other organs. Therefore, the total required iodine for a woman is 5+6+2 = 13 mg/day. The RDA is 150 ugs per day, so a woman would have to take 86 times as much as this to achieve the 13 mg/day needed by her body, and even more if she had a larger body or bigger breasts. A man has smaller breasts and his prostate requires somewhat less iodine than a woman's breasts. However, a man's body is generally larger than 110 lbs, so this would have to be factored into the total requirements for a man.
Dr. Brownstein states, "Over the last 30 years, iodine levels have fallen over 50% in the United States. Breast cancer rates have risen dramatically. Thyroid illness from hypothyroidism, autoimmune including Grave's and Hashimoto's, as well as thyroid cancer has risen dramatically." Since the Japanese have so much iodine in their bodies (they're ingesting 100X our 150 ug RDA of iodine), and iodine is essential for dealing with radiation exposure, it makes me wonder what might happen happen if there were a mishap involving massive radiation exposure in a country such as ours where the iodine level is so pathetically low. [I am thinking this may have kept their death rate lower when we dropped the A-bombs on them in WW2!]
And this may well be an important consideration, as cancer rates have been shown to rise after radiation has been released into the atmosphere, which apparently happened quite a bit with the use of depleted uranium (DU) weapons in Iraq in 2003. Background radiation levels were measured at many times normal in England (click this link - http://www.llrc.org/aldermastrept.pdf - and check the graphs) just a few days after the fighting started in Iraq. Cancer rates in Iraq in 2001 were about 10X what they were before Desert Storm where much less DU was used than in 2003. The big problem is that the effects are global (see: http://www.mindfully.org/Nucs/2006/DU-Europe-Moret26feb06.htm). So, the problem for us is that the DU rounds burn up or pulverize and tend to stay in the atmosphere, allowing the "aerosol of sub micron" size to enter the slip-stream and come back to America to bite us all.
Therefore, we all need to be aware of any nutritional and purification techniques which will handle radiation.
I've just upped my iodine intake to 1.35 mg/day (6 kelp tablets of 225 ug each) and I feel warmer already (maybe this will help me burn off my excess fat even faster.)" Dan

I was going to post another link, but I checked it and it's already gone. So, I will post the info here. (after reading you will see why it was probably deleted!!!)
Table 1 Various forms of iodine/iodide used in clinical medicine and their toxicity levels.
Forms ---- Toxicity
A) Inorganic 1) Non-radioactive a) iodides (i.e., SSKI) ---- All Extremely Safe b) tincture of iodine c) Lugol Solution
2) Radioactive iodides for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes -------------------------- Carcinogenic Cytotoxic
B) Organic 1) Naturally occurring a) thyroid hormones ---------- All Safe within Physiological ranges b) thyroidal iodolipids
2) Man made a) radiographic contrast media ------ All Extremely Toxic b) iodine-containing drugs (i.e. amiodarone)
Several forms of iodine prescribed by U.S. physicians are listed in T1 (link, which is lost). The manmade organic forms of iodine are extremely toxic, whereas the inorganic non-radioactive forms are extremely safe. However, the safe inorganic non-radioactive forms were banned for the severe side effects of the organic iodine-containing drugs.
A new syndrome, medical iodophobia, was recently reported with symptoms of split personality, double standards, amnesia, confusion and altered state of consciousness. Medical iodophobia has reached pandemic proportion and it is highly contagious (iatrogenic iodophobia). A century ago, non-radioactive forms of inorganic iodine were considered a panacea for all human ills, but today, they are avoided by physcians like leprosy. What, what, killed iodine?
The first nail in the iodine coffin was the publication by Wolff and Chaikoff from U.C. Berkely in 1948, describing their finding in rats administered iodide in increasing amounts by intraperitoneal injection. When serum inorganic iodide levels reached 0.2 mg/L, that is 10-6M, radioiodide uptake by the thyroid gland became undetectable. The correct interpretation would be: "Iodide of sufficiency of the thyroid gland was achieved when serum inorganic iodide levels reached 10-6M, as we previously discussed." But Wolff and Chaikoff concluded that serum inorganic iodide levels at a concentration of 10-6M blocks the synthesis of the thyroid hormones, resulting in hypothyroidism and goiter. These authors did not measure thyroid hormones in the rats studied. Hypothyroidism and goiter were not observed in those rats. This fictitious phenomenon became known as the Wolff-Chaikoff Effect. Because these law-abiding rats refused to become hypothyroid and instead followed their normal physiological response to the iodide load, they were injustly accused of escaping from the law of the Wolff-Chaikoff Effect. Labeling these innocent rats as fugitives was a great injustice against these rodents.
The second and final nail in the iodine coffin was hammered by Wolff in 1969. By 1969, Doctor Wolff had moved to the National Institute of Health from U.C. Berkely. Wolff arbitrarily defined 4 levels of "iodine excess". The first level of excess started with intake above 0.2mg/day, and iodide intake of 2 mg or more was considered "excessive and potentially harmful." In the following article, the author discusses the Wolff-Chaikoff Effect and presents evidence that the data reported in the rats by Wolff-Chaikoff did not justify the interpretation of these data as applied to rats. Even worse, extrapolation of these findings to human subjects by Wolff was inappropriate, and unscientific. By the 1970's, physicians concluded that one must avoid inorganic non-radioactive iodine like leprosy, unless it was incorporated into the toxic organic iodine containing drugs. Then iodine could be tolerated because iodine could be blamed for the toxicity of these drugs.
More to be read, let me know if you want to read it!!! There are 13 more paragraphs which are just as interesting!
