For more info. go to www.CaptainColon.com or http://www.CaptainColon.com/testimonials.html As waste continues to stick to the walls of the colon, and as the colon increases in diameter, this six-foot-long organ swells in size and pushes against its neighboring organs. This puts physical pressure on these nearby organs, literally pushing them down or aside. This in turn not only distorts their shape but increases their internal pressure. This unnatural internal pressure constricts blood vessels and other pathways in the afflicted organs. Such constriction hampers circulation of vital fluids such as blood, interfering with the flow of nutrients and oxygen to these organs. With a decrease in oxygen comes stagnation and a weakened ability for that organ to flush out waste products. This leads to wastes putrefying in the affected organ creating additional waste products. To this is added the toxins that are brought in from outside of our bodies and you have a vicious circle that slowly gains momentum. The colon is not the only organ that can become enlarged by stored waste. The liver, kidneys, pancreas, joints, brain, and other organs also store toxic substances which restrict their normal function. In fact, as these organs fill up with wastes internally they develop an outward pressure somewhat like a balloon being blown up. This outward pressure wars against the pressure forced on it by neighboring organs magnifying the pressure. You could think of it as a form of "negative acupressure" in which physical pressure is placed on organs to their harm. Systems such as the lymph system and circulatory system, plus tissues, are also prone to this same phenomenon, down to the cellular level. Organs, systems and cells cramped in this fashion have literally been traumatized by having their living space violated, internally and externally. This trauma weakens them and

Inflammatory bowel disease is the name of a group of disorders that cause the intestines to become inflamed (red and swollen). The inflammation lasts a long time and usually comes back over and over again. More than 600,000 Americans have some kind of inflammatory bowel disease every year. If you have inflammatory bowel disease, you may have abdominal cramps and pain, diarrhea, weight loss and bleeding from your intestines. Two kinds of inflammatory bowel disease are Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Crohn's disease usually causes ulcers (open sores) along the length of the small and large intestines. Crohn's disease either spares the rectum, or causes inflammation or infection with drainage around the rectum. Ulcerative colitis usually causes ulcers in the lower part of the large intestine, often starting at the rectum. What causes inflammatory bowel disease? The exact causes are unknown. The disease may be caused by a germ or by an immune system problem. You don't have to worry about your family members catching the disease from you, because it isn't contagious. However, inflammatory bowel disease does seem to be hereditary (runs in your family). How is inflammatory bowel disease diagnosed? Based on your symptoms, your doctor may suspect that you have Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. Your bowel movements may be tested for germs and the presence of blood. Your doctor will probably look inside your intestines with a sigmoidoscope or a colonoscope. In these procedures, the doctor uses a narrow flexible tube to look directly inside your intestines. Special x-rays may be helpful in diagnosing this illness. How is inflammatory bowel disease treated? The best thing you can do is take good care of yourself. It's important to eat a healthy diet. Depending on your symptoms, your doctor may ask you to cut down on the amount of fiber or dairy products in your diet. In addition to eating well, you need to get enough rest. It's also important that you learn to manage the stress in your life. When you become overly upset by things that happen at home or at work, your intestinal problems can get worse. You will most likely be treated by a team of doctors. This team may include your family physician, a gastroenterologist (a specialist in stomach and intestinal disorders) and, possibly, a surgeon. http://www.emfnews.org/qlinks.html The goal of treatment is to get rid of the inflammation. Many types of medicine can reduce inflammation, including anti-inflammatory drugs such as sulfasalazine (brand name: Azulfidine), corticosteroids such as prednisone, and immune system suppressors such as azathioprine (brand name: Imuran) and mercaptopurine (brand name: Purinethol). An antibiotic, such as metronidazole (brand name: Flagyl), may also be helpful for killing germs in the intestines, especially if you have Crohn's disease. To help treat your symptoms, your doctor may recommend anti-diarrheals, laxatives, pain relievers or other over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. It is important to talk to your doctor before taking any OTC medicine on your own. Your body may not be able to handle the effects of medicine. If you have severe symptoms, such as diarrhea, fever or vomiting, you may need to go to the hospital to be treated with special fluids and medicines that must be given intravenously (in your veins). If your ulcerative colitis becomes so severe that it can't be helped by medicines, it may be necessary to remove part or all of your colon surgically. Crohn's disease usually isn't helped with surgery. For more info. go to www.CaptainColon.com or http://www.VolcanoHealing.com testimonials http://www.volcanohealing.com/testimonials.html

Candida has been treated successfully with diet and colon therapy. However, self diagnosis and treatment can be dangerous. Do not use these treatments without first checking with your Chiropractor, naturopath, MD or other physician licenced and qualified to advise you in these matters. The following information is given to help educate and share the truth about candidiasis. It is not a presciption for treatment The separation of reality and what exists in the real world has never been so contorted from what really is as it has become in health care within the last century in America. If you have candida, in almost every case, you are eating antibiotic laced foods or taking, or have taken antibiotics. It is that simple. If you would get rid of it, eat correctly, eliminate all these unnatural additives. Only take antibiotics when you have an infection that life threatening or can do you serious harm if you don't take them. Antibiotic pills and shots cause candidiasis. More drugs won't correct this problem. Believing that you are and can be well, then living correctly will cure candida. We have all lived in darkness a long time. Millions of pounds of aspirin are sold each year to ease pain, that is there to tell us we are doing something wrong. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent each year on treating candida, a disease which cannot be cured by treatment, but only by living correctly. Health is a state of being free from disease. The appropriate way of overcoming it is not seeking a treatment for candida, but seeking a way of life that is healthful. We can come from the dark into the light. You have the chance on seeing the way to be much more than well from a malady. You have the opportunity to be well.

Crohn's disease, an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), causes ulcers to form in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract anywhere from the mouth to the anus. Symptoms include stomach cramps and pain that comes and goes, diarrhea, and blood in your stool. Other symptoms include losing weight, feeling sick to your stomach, having joint pain and feeling tired. Some people who have Crohn's disease have severe symptoms, while others have less severe symptoms. Some people who have the disease have long periods without symptoms, even without getting treatment. Others with more severe disease will need long-term treatment or even surgery. Who gets Crohn's disease? Almost 500,000 people in the United States have Crohn's disease. Anyone can get Crohn's disease, but it's more common in women, whites and Jewish people. It is not known what causes Crohn's disease. It seems to run in families, but there is no known pattern of inheritance. How can my doctor tell if I have Crohn's disease? If your doctor thinks you may have Crohn's disease, he or she will ask you about your symptoms and do a complete exam to look for signs of the illness. If your symptoms and exam findings suggest that you have Crohn's disease, your doctor may do some blood tests. While no blood test can prove you have Crohn's disease, your blood might show anemia, salt imbalance, vitamin deficiency or increased signs of inflammation--all possible signs of the disease. Your doctor also may order special x-rays or a procedure called endoscopy. Endoscopy lets your doctor look at your GI tract to check for ulcers by inserting a small scope into your body through your mouth or anus. http://www.emfnews.org/qlinks.html How is Crohn's disease treated? The treatment of Crohn's disease depends on how bad it is and where it is in your GI tract. When the disease is mild, medicines called salicylates may help. Certain antibiotics are also used to treat mild Crohn's disease. Steroids are generally used for people who have more severe disease. In more aggressive disease, steroids may be used with immunosuppressants or with a newer medicine called infliximab (brand name: Remicade). If you have very severe Crohn's disease, you may need to stay in the hospital. Sometimes surgery is needed, but it cannot cure the disease. What can I expect after treatment? The success of treatment for Crohn's disease varies. While there is no known cure for the illness, many people have long periods without symptoms. Your doctor will need to see you regularly to check for signs of active disease or any disease complications. People with long-term Crohn's disease may become depressed or have other mood disorders. Your doctor will check you for these problems as well. For more info. go to www.CaptainColon.com or http://www.VolcanoHealing.com testimonials http://www.volcanohealing.com/testimonials.html

Hilda Clarks Parasite Prevention Herbs Part 2 To learn more go to http://www.CaptainColon.com or http://www.VolcanoHealing.com These three herbs must be used together. Black walnut hull and wormwood kill adults and developmental stages of at least 100 parasites. Cloves kill the eggs. Only if you use them together will you rid yourself of parasites. If you kill only the adults, the tiny stages and eggs will soon grow into new adults. If you kill only the eggs, the million stages already loose in your body will soon grow into adults and make more eggs. They must be used together as a single treatment. It is the green hull surrounding the nut of the black walnut tree that has this miraculous parasiticide. After it has turned black, it is useless. The large green balls fall to the ground early in the fall. In a week or two they will be black and decaying. Therefore, anyone wishing to make parasiticide must be careful not to let the critical time for harvesting pass. I encourage everyone to make their own parasiticides and to take back the responsibility for keeping themselves and their families free of these tiny monsters. The recipe for Black Walnut Hull Tincture (extra strength) is given in Recipes (page 503). Note that it is a tincture (extracted using grain alcohol), not an ordinary extract (which uses water). The black walnut extract that is available from herb companies is not potent as a parasiticide. It is black, not pale green, indicating that the critical harvesting time had passed. Of course there is no time to make your own if you have fast growing or metastasizing cancer. See the chapter Sources. You will only need one 1 oz. bottle. While you are waiting for it to arrive, get your other 2 herbs ready: wormwood and cloves. Wormwood consists of the leaves of the Artemisia shrub. My recommendation is that you grow it yourself if you have any space to do so. Wormwood seed is available from seed catalogs, see Sources. The amount you need to cure a cancer is very small, yet you cannot do without it. But the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has regulated it as toxic! It is therefore unavailable in concentrated form from herb companies. The evidence for toxicity accepted by the FDA must have been hearsay. I have never seen a case of toxicity, not so much as a headache or nausea. The toxic level must be much higher than is needed to kill these parasites. This shrub is called wormwood for good reason: it kills worms! There is quite a bit of confusion over which Artemisia is the true wormwood. Books and nurseries can be wrong, even though they assure you they are correct! Buy Artemisia absynthium for your garden. Wormwood goes back to antiquity and is mentioned in the Bible. If you grow your own, dry the leaves when they are in their prime. The leaves are greenish gray and quite bitter. Nobody would accidentally eat too much of them. Adults may put them in capsules. For a child, crumble ¼ tsp. and stir into honey. I have not done experiments to be more precise than this. Wormwood capsules are available as a combination of Artemisia, and other herbs (see Sources). The third herb necessary to cure cancer is cloves. This is the common spice used in baking. It needs to be ground up in order to release its parasite killing properties. You can buy a can of whole cloves and grind them in a blender or grinder. Store-bought "ground cloves" do not work! Their parasite killing properties have evaporated long ago. Ground cloves from a health food store or herb shop may not work either! They may have been ground years ago.

Many ailments begin in the colon, and, if not discovered or treated, can cause serious problems. Such ailments can even lead to death. In America today, colon cancer is one of the most prevalent types of cancer. Part of the reason so many Americans have an unhealthy colon is the lack of fiber benefits to their diet. The required daily allowance for fiber intake is 20 to 30 grams, an amount few people achieve. However, eating a diet with insufficient fiber is like cleansing dishes without a sponge. You simply can't get all of the grime off the plate. Without fiber in the diet, scraping the colon clean during each use is impossible. Buildup occurs, resulting in the health problems mentioned above. To learn more go to http://www.CaptainColon.com or http://www.VolcanoHealing.com

What is constipation?http://www.CaptainColon.com Constipation means different things to different people. For many people, it simply means infrequent stools. For others, however, constipation means hard stools, difficulty passing stools (straining), or a sense of incomplete emptying after a bowel movement. The cause of each of these "types" of constipation probably is different, and the approach to each should be tailored to the specific type of constipation. Constipation can also alternate with diarrhea. This pattern is more commonly considered as part of the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). At the extreme end of the constipation spectrum is fecal impaction, a condition in which stool hardens in the rectum and prevents the passage of any stool.The number of bowel movements generally decreases with age. Ninety-five percent of adults have bowel movements between three and 21 times per week, and this would be considered normal. The most common pattern is one bowel movement a day, but this pattern is seen in less than 50% of people. Moreover, most people are irregular and do not have bowel movements every day or the same number of bowel movements each day. Medically speaking, constipation usually is defined as fewer than three bowel movements per week (this is crazy). Severe constipation is defined as less than one bowel movement per week ( a road to disease). There is no medical reason to have a bowel movement every day ( that is why medicine is very flawed). Going without a bowel movement for two or three days does not cause physical discomfort, only mental distress for some people. Contrary to popular belief, there is no evidence that "toxins" accumulate when bowel movements are infrequent or that constipation leads to cancer ( give me a break, if you do not eliminate waste where else can the toxins go?).It is important to distinguish acute (recent onset) constipation from chronic (long duration) constipation. Acute constipation requires urgent assessment because a serious medical illness may be the underlying cause (e.g., tumors of the colon). Constipation also requires an immediate assessment if it is accompanied by worrisome symptoms such as rectal bleeding, abdominal pain and cramps, nausea and vomiting, and involuntary weight loss. Please do yourself a favor if you have constipation go on a colon cleanse or see a colon hydrotherapist. http://www.CaptainColon.com

Do we have to talk about it? If you’re a typical American, your colon is probably the most neglected organ in your entire body. But did you know that it’s the most vital in terms of your overall health? Why do we neglect our colons? Because, for obvious reasons, colon health is a subject none of us wants to talk about in “polite conversation.” Out of sight, out of mind. What if I told you that a clogged colon is quite possibly robbing you of the energy, vitality and peace of mind that you deserve? “I’m not constipated!” You might say: “What’s the big deal?” My colon must not be clogged because I have normal bowel movements.Well, you may be shocked to learn that the National College of Chiropractic in Chicago performed autopsies on 300 bodies1. According to the histories of the deceased, 285 of them claimed that they were not constipated and had “normal” bowel movements. What the autopsies revealed absolutely amazed the examiners: 95% of the bodies examined were constipated! Some of the bodies were found to have colons bloated up to 12 inches in diameter (a normal colon is 2-3 inches in diameter) and were encrusted with a long-term buildup of toxic material.The “Serial Killer” • In the United States, 1 out of every 17 Americans will develop colorectal cancer Deaths from colorectal cancer rank third after lung and prostate cancer for menand after lung and breast cancer for women. • Most colon cancers are tumors that develop from the glands lining the colon’s inner wall.According to research conducted by Dr. Denis P. Burkitt, M.D.3, the length of time foodwastes remain in the bowel determines: • How putrefactive (decayed or rotten) they become inside you • How much fat is absorbed through your bowel wall (including unhealthy cholesterol)• What sort of toxins develop in and pass through your bowelDr. Burkitt clearly linked how people with rapid bowel transit times (associated with clean, constipation-free colons) have dramatically fewer incidences of colon disease,including colon cancer.Your 3 Point Checkup Did you know that you’re quite possibly being poisoned by your own body? Most people have no clue as to why they’re experiencing all too common health issues that can be a direct result of inadequate digestion and elimination.Could this be happening to you? Here’s a quick 3 question test that can help you find out:1. Do you frequently feel sluggish, tired or lethargic? ____ Yes ____ No 2. Do you have arthritis or experience frequent body aches and pains, including headaches? ____ Yes ____ No 3. Are you experiencing constipation, diarrhea or irregular bowel movements? ____ Yes ____ No If you answered ‘Yes’ to any of the 3 questions, you could be heading for disaster. What do you do? For starters, you should “clean yourself out” as soon as possible! Proper cleansing of the colon can loosen and remove years of the toxic buildup that couldbe caked on your colon’s inner wall (which is exactly where most colon cancers develop).
