Guest guest Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I think combining coconut as well as cod liver oil with your flax oil would be a good idea. The Budwig Diet revision is supported by medical research. all good, Duncan > > I am a firm believer in Flax oil.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Dr. Budwig created Oleolux as a replacement for butter on cooked foods. It consisted of Flaxseed Oil, VCO and the juices of sauted onion and garlic, so the coconut oil was an approved oil by her. I consume 4 to 6 Tbs. of VCO daily but at different times than FOCC mix.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Duncan, I don't believe that Dr. Budwig or anyone connected with her protocol has approved your revision, so I think it would be more honest to call it the " Crow " protocol. Then maybe we could compare her 50 years of healing over 1,000 cancer and other patients with your expeerience. Otherwise, some may become confused and follow your suggestion thinking they were doing the " Budwig " protocol. Regards, Craig > > > > I am a firm believer in Flax oil.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Hi , The first and main benefit that I noticed from VCO was an increase of energy and I noticed it after 3 weeks of consuming it. You know how it is when you are healthy and you take supplements because of something you read or heard, but you never feel any different. Well, it wasn't that way with CO. After 3 weeks I felt a definite boost in energy. Myself and my girlfriend have been taking the FOCC since Dec 09 and we both feel in good health. We both take a few other supplements as well as Duncan's protocol on Whey and selenium and think highly of it. There's all kinds of advice out there, but you have to weed out the " chaff " and find what works for you. Regards. Craig > > > > > > I am a firm believer in Flax oil.

Fresh high quality raw (grass-fed) butter is such a powerful health food (and so delicious), why on earth would anyone want to replace it with anything, especially as bad as flax oil?

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Craig, getting a vote of approval from Budwig followers, a sect that I have no links to, is out of the question. The peer-reviewed data for the Budwig Diet revision requires no approval by peoples' families to speak for itself. That the data supports a change from a 50-year old method that has not been similarly supported in the past only inflames zealots my friend, not the truly inquisitive. People who are not followers approve of the revision, and followers like yourself can do what they like as well. Some are still using flax oil but they won't use cottage cheese anymore. all good, Duncan > > Duncan, > I don't believe that Dr. Budwig or anyone connected with her protocol has approved your revision, so I think it would be more honest to call it the " Crow " protocol.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Duncan, I routinely add an acid ( apple cider vinegar) and a sugar ( raw honey) to my Flax Oil/Cottage Cheese Budwig protein mix. I would do the same for the revised version you are referring to. Dr Kousmine advised the use of an acid, she preferred lemon juice, to the FOCC Budwig mix. Also, Dr D C Jarvis, author of " Arthritis and Folk Medecine " found that consuming apple cider vinegar diluted in water with proteins was a good association. Does this approach make sense ? > > > > I am a firm believer in Flax oil.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 L, did the doctors not give a reason for adding acid to the flax oil aside from palatibility? Seems the approach has little to do with the oil itself, as acid and oils don't mix. What kind of " association " was proposed with the apple cider vinegar? As to the sugar or honey, this would not be relevant to a Budwig follower, would it? all good, Duncan > > > > > > I am a firm believer in Flax oil.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Well, an acid might assist stomach acidity but not by much; the kind of acidity that is needed is about 1000 times more acid than a lemon. all good, Duncan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Of the two main fatty acids in flax oil, linoleic is already in excess in most diets and as such is inflammatory, so we strive to limit linoleic to what is necessary and nothing more. About 2% of the linolenic acid in flax oil at best can be converted to EPA and DHA if one's linoleic acid is not excessive, and otherwise has no known function in the body except perhaps as a fuel. EPA and DHA that have been used in cancer research are plentiful in fish oil. I have the research anbstracts on the Budwig Diet Revision page: http://tinyurl.com/Budwig So it seems the flax oil can be net inflammatory, it does not posess the anticancer benefit on its own, it vibrates at a lower frequency than higher unsaturated oils such as fish oil do, and it attracts oxygen less than fish or krill oil. I think the benefits of flax oil were exaggerated by the seed oil companies and that their advertising has skewed public perception. all good, Duncan > > Can some one write a summary why flax oil is not so great.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Duncan, there appears to be several reasons. The one that I retained was that its to counterbalance the thickening of the blood from the protein. Thicker blood means potential higher BP and less blood available for the brain. It also helps to keep the blood chemistry and endocrine systems balanced as the protein is digested. > > > > > > > > I am a firm believer in Flax oil.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Perhaps cottage cheese casein thickens blood, but that is specifically avoided in the Budwig Diet revision. Seems the cottage cheese involves a bit more risk than using whey, yes? Thickening blood as one ages results from the reduced production of the only fibrinolytic enzyme the body makes (plasmin). Falling plasmin levels can be propped up with BlockBuster AllClear, which contains synergistic compounds nattokinase, serrapeptase and SeaProse-S. Blood also flows better as inflammation is reduced and microcirculation improves. Doing this also is a property of the enzymes. A metabolic (not digestive) enzyme program is a valuable anti-aging tool that obviates the need for warfarin, and as such should appeal to about 1/5 the elderly population.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Duncan, Lets not forget that the substance created by the mixture of FO and CC is not either one but something different,and presumably a synergy is created. As an example, the local biochemists have a tea recipe: its turmeric, green tea and black pepper. Positively the yuchiest tasting mix you could ever imagine. While the three ingredients are fine in and of themselves, steeped together for several minutes they create a synergy that is greater than the sum of its parts. They create a very powerful molecule which is apparently quite the cancer buster. So I think that the power of the FOCC mix is in the synergistic effect of the two in combination. Is there a synergy created when combining fish oil with whey protein ? I guess what I am saying is the power is in the product of the synergy. And some mixes create more synergy than others. Many of her contemporaries wished her the Nobel prize because they admired her work. Beliveau, who holds the Chair for Cancer Prevention and Treatment at Université of Québec has actually charted the synergy, in mesurable values, that is created by the tea recipe I mentioned above. http://www.mcgill.ca/translational-research-cancer/researcher-biographies/belive\ au Duncan, I guess what I am saying is the synergy can be amazing. I am convinced that consuming cottage cheese in the morning and a couple of Tsp of flax oil later would be vastly inferior to the FOCC mix Dr Budwig was advocating. > > > > > > L, did the doctors not give a reason for adding acid to the flax oil aside from palatibility?

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 , mixing an oil with a water-based protein can produce an emiulsified blend but emulsifation does not improve the solubility of either fraction. Further, the theory that some kind of cold fusion happens that transforms the blend molecularly into something synergistic has never been ratified or the mechanism even proposed for testing. And yes, synergy can be amazing but we can usually detail the reactions involved in the cases where it is true. It is my sincerest wish to remain unaffected by folklore, and I think that's what it is. all good, Duncan > > Duncan, > Lets not forget that the substance created by the mixture of FO and CC is not either one but something different,and presumably a synergy is created. > As an example, the local biochemists have a tea recipe: its turmeric, green tea and black pepper.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Duncan, Two words in your last sentence is important: " I think... " . Other people think otherwise, especially a Bio chemist that spent 50 years healing over 1,000 patients of cancer and other ailments. Maybe you should do a double blind test on the " CROW " protocol?

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 If a biochemist with 50 years experience produced some lab work, I would find it fascinating Or, another biochemist who replicated the lab work to confirm the theory. " I think " we're still waiting. Hey, I'd really be interested in real experimental support of any quantum theories. The " crow protocol " has several approaches, each one of which " I think " has been proven on its own.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Why would anyone use flaxseed oil? To become healthy or save their life, I suppose. I was answering a question had regarding the Budwig protocol. I like healthy butter also, but its not everything.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I just searched Budwig references again and the reason my site comes up first in a Google search, " I think " , is because of the absence of Budwig references from Budwig or any other biochemist on this subject. While some independent research has analysed flax oil in rats and mice, nothing comes up on cottage cheese or the combination of FO/CC. <http://www.naturaltherapycenter.com/pages/Scientific-References-for-Dr-Budwig.h\ tml> What I'm looking for is verification of that elusive alchemical reaction that is purported by Budwig followers to moleculary alter flax oil and cottage cheese. Also, proof that CC renders the oil more soluble, as opposed to emulsified, would be nice, but the first point would interest me the most. Those are the claims that would certainly provoke the interest of a biochemist, even one without 50 years experience. " I think " the theory was a guess, and " I think " I smell a 60-year old quantum myth. all good, Duncan > > > > Duncan, > > Two words in your last sentence is important: " I think... " .

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I find her results facinating. There are other clinics using her protocol & others with some medical standing recommending it. Also, JB was practicing up to the time of her death in 2002, so it's misleading to say that it's a 50 year old protocol like it's a Model T Ford. Hey, I believe in a certain amount of fish oil and also whey too, but here you go twising again comparing two separate items (yours) with a mixture (JB's). I don't believe there's any references on your two items working synergistically together. Am I wrong? JB had many years of positive results and I've had personal knowledge of results also, as well as results claimed monthly on their boards.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Here is a partial. Not what you said you were looking for, but it's just as good as yours. " Flaxseed, a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids and lignans, put the brakes on prostate tumor growth in men who were given 30 grams of flaxseed daily for a month before surgery to treat their prostate cancer. The 40 men taking flaxseed, either alone or along with a low-fat diet, were compared to 40 men only following a low-fat diet, and 40 men in a control group who did not alter or supplement their usual diet. Men who took flaxseed, as well as those who took flaxseed combined with a low-fat diet did the best. Lead author, Duke University researcher Demark-Wahnefried, believes the omega-3s in flaxseed alter how cancer cells lump together or cling to other cells, while flaxseed's anti-angiogenic lignans choke off the tumor's blood supply, thus helping to halt the cellular activity that leads to cancer growth.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Hi Craig, no I haven't seen research that shows synergistic action between whey and fish oil or between cottage cheese and flax oil either. Budwig suggested sulfur-rich proteins are the most important part of cottage cheese for her purpose, and undenatured whey is the most bioavailable sulfur rich protein on the planet, and there's no reason to expect it to not synergise just as well. It brings a full suite of properties including anticancer properties to the table, which of course cottage cheese doesn't aside from providing the organic sulfur. If Budwig had had the opportunity to see the cancer research around undenatured whey, " I think " she would have investigated it and probably made the logical Budwig diet revision on her own. Synergy huh? Cottage cheese improved the score of flax oil alone by how much? Alobar mentioned recently that he encountered a slightly different scenario with regard to the Budwig protocol than you have. Results when they are true do look interesting, but supposed, unwarranted or unsupported attributions to a product or method are supremely disinteresting to me. What I'd really like to see is a better separation of unproven or myth from fact because the myths confuse people and also makes the commendations look somewhat less meaningful. all good, Duncan > > > > If a biochemist with 50 years experience produced some lab work, I would find it fascinating Or, another biochemist who replicated the lab work to confirm the theory.
