The Survival Paradox: Reversing the Hidden Cause of Aging and Chronic Disease by Isaac Eliaz Pdf
Cancer. Organ failure. Accelerated aging. Can a single "survival molecule" fuel our most deadly and devastating health concerns?

Drawing on inspirational healing stories and cutting-edge research, integrative medicine expert Dr. Isaac Eliaz presents a roadmap to master your biochemistry and overcome this paradox. The result? Healing and transformation on every level: physical, mental, and emotional. The Survival Paradox offers a groundbreaking new perspective in medicine-and the key to unlocking your infinite healing potential.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • By the pioneer of lifestyle medicine, a simple, scientifically program proven to often reverse the progression of the most common and costly chronic diseases and even begin reversing aging at a cellular level! Long rated “#1 for Heart Health” by U.S. News & World Report, Dr. Ornish’s Program is now covered by Medicare when offered virtually at home. Dean Ornish, M.D., has directed revolutionary research proving, for the first time, that lifestyle changes can often reverse—undo!—the progression of many of the most common and costly chronic diseases and even begin reversing aging at a cellular level. Medicare and many insurance companies now cover Dr. Ornish’s lifestyle medicine program for reversing chronic disease because it consistently achieves bigger changes in lifestyle, better clinical outcomes, larger cost savings, and greater adherence than have ever been reported—based on forty years of research published in the leading peer-reviewed medical and scientific journals. Now, in this landmark book, he and Anne Ornish present a simple yet powerful new unifying theory explaining why these same lifestyle changes can reverse so many different chronic diseases and how quickly these benefits occur. They describe what it is, why it works, and how you can do it: • Eat well: a whole foods, plant-based diet naturally low in fat and sugar and high in flavor. The “Ornish diet” has been rated “#1 for Heart Health” by U.S. News & World Report for eleven years since 2011. • Move more: moderate exercise such as walking • Stress less: including meditation and gentle yoga practices • Love more: how love and intimacy transform loneliness into healing With seventy recipes, easy-to-follow meal plans, tips for stocking your kitchen and eating out, recommended exercises, stress-reduction advice, and inspiring patient stories of life-transforming benefits—for example, several people improved so much after only nine weeks they were able to avoid a heart transplant—Undo It! empowers readers with new hope and new choices. Praise for Undo It! “The Ornishes’ work is elegant and simple and deserving of a Nobel Prize, since it can change the world!”—Richard Carmona, M.D., MPH, FACS, seventeenth Surgeon General of the United States “If you want to see what medicine will be like ten years from now, read this book today.”—Rita F. Redberg, M.D., editor in chief, JAMA Internal Medicine “This is one of the most important books on health ever written.”—John Mackey, CEO, Whole Foods Market
Father Romano Zago, a Franciscan Friar and scholar, wrote the book Cancer Can Be Cured to reveal to the world an all natural Brazilian Recipe that contains the juice made from the whole leaf plant of Aloe Arborescens and honey that has been shown to rapidly restore the body's health so it heals itself of all types of cancer. The book tells how it was while administering to the poor in the shantytown of Rio Grande dol Sul , Brazil that he and the provincial Father Arno Reckziegel, witnessed the healing of simple people of cancer who used this recipe. Later, when he had assignments in Israel and Italy where this aloe species grows naturally he continued to see great success in the chronically ill being cured when he recommended they use this recipe. This inspired for him to spend the next 20 years in researching the science behind this aloe species and the publication of that research in this book along with his numerous first hand anecdotes of cancer healing by those using the Brazilian juice recipe. Chapters include information on how to prepare the recipe using the three ingredients of whole leaf Aloe arborescens juice, honey and a small amount of distillate (1%); how to take the preparation; questions and answers on everything from how to pick the aloe leaves, why each of the three ingredients is important in the recipe, the types of cancer that have been cured using the recipe, other diseases and health problems the recipe has shown to be beneficial in helping the human body solve; the internationalization of the recipe on five continents; anecdotal stories of some body healings; the composition of Aloe; and Aloe and Aids. There has been much publicized scientific research and literature on the synergistic benefits of the 300 phytotherapeutic biochemical and nutrient constituents of Aloe vera to aid the body's defenses to enhance the immune system and protect against diseases. However, this is the first book to reveal the little known potency
Women are diagnosed with 80% of the over 145 identified autoimmune diseases (that number is still growing). Over 90% of the population has a form of autoimmune disease and inflammation. Several autoimmune diseases, including lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, myasthenia gravis, and multiple sclerosis, afflict women anywhere from two to 10 times more often than they do men. Getting to the root cause to reverse autoimmunity is possible. There are 3 root causes that functional medicine doctors spend most of their time talking about. There is one more piece to the autoimmune puzzle that affects women more than it does men. Dr. Keesha Ewers calls this the "missing piece" of the complex autoimmune puzzle. Dr. Keesha is one of the 50 million Americans who received an autoimmune diagnosis. In Solving the Autoimmune Puzzle, she teaches the same Freedom Framework she used to reverse not only her own autoimmune disease (rheumatoid arthritis), but also the autoimmunity in thousands of others.
Padma is an impressive cooling anti-inflammatory herbal formula that originated hundreds of years ago in the Himalayan Mountains of Tibet. In Tibetan medicine, illnesses are categorized as being hot, cold, or neutral, and remedies are designed to create balance. Many of today's most common ailments are considered "hot." These include arteriosclerosis, intermittent claudication (leg pain), and every condition that ends in itis. Although herbal formulas typically have little or no science behind them, Padma is the most studied "cooling" formula with more than fifty scientific studies to back up its effectiveness. Individually, each of the nineteen herbs and two other natural ingredients in this formula reduce inflammation and increase circulation. However, Padma does much more. The combined effect of all of its ingredients helps regulate and restore balance to various systems of the body for optimal health.
A Nation of Unwell by MD Kristine L. Gedroic,Valerie A. Latona Pdf
Do you want to maintain optimal wellness at any age? A Nation of Unwell: What's Gone Wrong? describes in easy-to-understand detail how to maintain your health and how to recover your wellness if you have a chronic illness or disease. A Nation of Unwell describes how the health of most patients today can be recovered, without a lifetime of medication. More than 117 million Americans, including children, are struggling with chronic health problems--and the numbers keep rising. In A Nation of Unwell, Dr. Gedroic--a Harvard-trained doctor in Morristown, New Jersey--explains how to stem the tide of rising chronic disease and illnesses today without depending on prescription medications. The problem is not with our bodies, she says, but instead with the way modern medicine currently diagnoses and treats illness and disease, making many believe there is no possibility of recovery. The body is like a seesaw, explains Dr. Gedroic. Our individual "seesaw" can get tipped from a nutrient-deficient diet, an unhealthy gut, toxins in the environment around us, and rampant inflammation. When our body gets out of balance, symptoms begin. "Symptoms are the body's only way of communicating with us," explains Dr. Gedroic in A Nation of Unwell, which has been lauded by top doctors and best-selling authors Dr. Deepak Chopra, Dr. Andrew Weil, and Dr. Mehmet Oz. "Rather than medicating symptoms to quiet these symptoms, we need to discover their root causes to be able to treat the body and help the body recover its health, for good." In A Nation of Unwell, Dr. Gedroic reveals: How to listen to and understand your symptoms and disease in a whole new way How to determine what your body needs when symptoms begin--and why it's important to question the long-term need for a prescription medication that treats only symptoms and not the root causes of an illness How to give your diet, personal care products, lifestyle, and environment a makeover for better health, starting today. How to get started on the path to wellness with a simple two-week plan. With A Nation of Unwell, health and wellness are truly within everyone's reach.
Lifespan by David A. Sinclair,Matthew D. LaPlante Pdf
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Brilliant and enthralling.” —The Wall Street Journal A paradigm-shifting book from an acclaimed Harvard Medical School scientist and one of Time’s most influential people. It’s a seemingly undeniable truth that aging is inevitable. But what if everything we’ve been taught to believe about aging is wrong? What if we could choose our lifespan? In this groundbreaking book, Dr. David Sinclair, leading world authority on genetics and longevity, reveals a bold new theory for why we age. As he writes: “Aging is a disease, and that disease is treatable.” This eye-opening and provocative work takes us to the frontlines of research that is pushing the boundaries on our perceived scientific limitations, revealing incredible breakthroughs—many from Dr. David Sinclair’s own lab at Harvard—that demonstrate how we can slow down, or even reverse, aging. The key is activating newly discovered vitality genes, the descendants of an ancient genetic survival circuit that is both the cause of aging and the key to reversing it. Recent experiments in genetic reprogramming suggest that in the near future we may not just be able to feel younger, but actually become younger. Through a page-turning narrative, Dr. Sinclair invites you into the process of scientific discovery and reveals the emerging technologies and simple lifestyle changes—such as intermittent fasting, cold exposure, exercising with the right intensity, and eating less meat—that have been shown to help us live younger and healthier for longer. At once a roadmap for taking charge of our own health destiny and a bold new vision for the future of humankind, Lifespan will forever change the way we think about why we age and what we can do about it.
