Combine and Conquer
We all know that certain foods can be categorized as bona fide
cancer preventers. But what do you get when those foods are
combined?
There are currently 40 studies underway that examine specific food
combinations and their preventative health benefits. Early results
show that combining foods can offer even greater cancer
prevention and overall healthier combinations of nutrients than any
one food can offer individually.
How about a filet of salmon on a bed of watercress surrounded by
a ring of broccoli florets, and crushed walnuts dusted across the top
-- sound like an incredible dinner plate at a fancy restaurant? It's
also a cancer killer extraordinaire. You see, each of these foods has
a cancer-fighting ingredient. But something magical happens when
they are combined into one dish. Together, they are particularly
high in two nutrients -- sulphoraphane and selenium. The
combination of these two nutrients is 13 times more effective than
either one alone.
The sulphoraphane found in broccoli also has a synergistic
relationship with lycopene and with another flavonoid, apigenin,
which is found in apples, endive, beans, broccoli, celery, cherries,
cloves, grapes, leeks, onions, barley, parsley and tomatoes. Eating
meals that combine foods of different colors may also impart
improved health benefits over eating any one color of food alone.
It's like the new Rubik's cube of food -- the combinations and the
beneficial effects could be endless.
This may not seem groundbreaking. After all, even though science
has always studied one food at a time, we've never eaten that way.
But in the next few years you'll be able to combine foods based on
more than just how they taste together. You'll be able to design
menus for your family based on evidence of their health-protecting
value. Entire cookbooks will be designed around the ultimate diets
for preventing cancer, heart disease, autoimmune disease, and the
many other health challenges that are prominent today.
Suddenly the future looks very good -- and healthy.

"Perfect Cure" for Heart Disease
* LDL cholesterol cut 64%
* Angina relieved better than nitroglycerin
* High blood pressure reversed just enough
* Congestive heart failure patients improved in just 2 weeks
* And so astonishingly cheaply...
A "dream team" including many of today's most famous names in
alternative medicine unveiled the results of new clinical
studies that, they said, shocked even them. In repeated
tests, one astonishing herb wiped out 5 of today's deadliest
heart and artery problems. Not only that...find out more:

European magnetism
Q: I was intrigued by the magnet therapy you described in the
April newsletter. Do you know if I can find a practitioner in
Germany -- or anywhere in Europe?
JVW: One of the MME centers I referenced in the April issue may
be able to help you locate a practitioner in Europe. In the U.S.,
there are centers in southern California (949-367-0877), Michigan
(586-254-7711, www.amri-mi.com), North Carolina (336-492-
2800, www.amri-nc.com), and Pennsylvania (717-632-0300,
www.amripa.com). There is also an MME center in Canada --
Calgary, Alberta (800-265-1119) -- which is run by Dr. Dean
Bonlie, who pioneered this treatment.
You might also check in with the British Institute of Magnetic
Therapy (Tel: 01495 752122; www.cogreslab.co.uk) and see if any
of their practitioners are using the MME.
I am sure that if this promising therapy has not made it to Europe
yet, it will in the near future.

FINALLY! SOMETHING OTHER THAN GLUCOSAMINE
TO STAVE OFF JOINT DISCOMFORT
Do you remember the last time you rolled out of bed without
feeling stiff and sore? Can you imagine swinging a golf club,
or spending the afternoon gardening...without paying for it
with days of discomfort? Now you can!
Scientists in New Zealand discovered a new alternative in the fight
to keep joints healthy...
Let’s face it – today’s typical glucosamine and chondroitin supplements
don’t work for everyone. Leaving thousands to face the discomfort of aging
joints – with not much more than drugs or surgery to look forward to. Now,
there’s a new natural alternative...
It's time to maintain your mobility and freedom - for many painless years
to come. Visit below to find out more:

What is...Biomagnetic Therapy?
While Dr. Bonlie's MME machine is a new twist, magnetic
therapy has a long healing history. Some of the earliest recorded
medical writings describe the use of magnetic stones to correct
imbalances in the "Qi" or life force. Hippocrates, generally
regarded as the father of modern medicine, believed the lodestone,
a naturally occurring magnetic substance, had therapeutic
properties.
Along the way, as the health claims for magnet therapy became
more outrageous, it became associated with quackery more than
actual healing, and fell outside of the practice of most traditional
physicians. Even as the MRI became hailed as a breakthrough
diagnostic tool, using magnets therapeutically remained on the
sidelines.
However, a double-blind study that came out of Baylor University
in 1997 went a long way in putting magnet therapy back on the
mainstream map. In that study of 50 post-polio patients, applying
magnet devices to pain trigger points resulted in a significant
decrease of pain. Subjects reported 76 percent pain relief from the
magnet devices, compared with 19 percent for the placebo -- a
statistically-significant difference, especially if you're the one in
pain.
Yours in good health,
