Detoxification: Everything you need to know and what to do

Part Four: Lifestyle and Herbs For Detoxification

By Donnie Yance

Life Force and Herbal Medicine

The Life Force, or Vital Force, is an innate energy that exists in all of nature. Plants are made up of highly organized molecules governed by this same Life Force with divine intelligence. Herbal medicine assists healing through the sacred human-to-plant relationship. God and nature have cooperated to create cleansing and nourishing allies throughout the plant kingdom.

Detoxification

We must consider that the creation of the universe had a purpose rather than being a mere result of chance. Plants were among the first settlers on Earth and depended on their adaptability for food and medicine. The plants learned how to convert sunlight into energy. They also learned to generate molecules to protect themselves from pollution, radiation, and predators. These molecules then become protective for us when we consume these foods and herbs.

Human beings and plants are manifestations of creative, divine intelligence, harmoniously connected through a shared vibration. The fact that we breathe the plants’ exhaust (oxygen) and they breathe our exhaust (carbon dioxide) is an example of this harmonic relationship.

By Donnie Yance

Now we will begin digging into the amino acids, minerals, and pathways that support healthy detoxification.

Key Goals for Detoxification

Remove or reduce the source of toxic exposure.
Regenerate networks through herbal, nutritional, dietary, and lifestyle medicine
Restore cellular energy primarily using adaptogens which are the root-system medicine for detoxification.
Improve energy transfer by ensuring efficient utilization of oxygen, fats, proteins, and sugars for energy. The more efficient the system, the fewer toxins are produced.
Reduce cellular inflammation.
Activate key detoxification and antioxidant pathways, including: Cytochrome p450, Glutathione (GSH), Nrf-2, Methylation, Sulfation, and Glucuronidation.
Eliminate stagnation of oxygen, blood, and lymph by engaging in gentle activities such as: deep breathing, walking in nature, swimming, or yoga.
Reduce stress, stay calm, and manage anger, worry, and fear.

What You Need To Know About IV Vitamin C and Cancer Seen Through The Lens Of Mederi-Care

By Donnie Yance

“The noblest foundation for medicine is love. It is love that teaches us the art of healing. Without love true healing can never be born.” – Paracelsus

Intravenous (IV) nutrient therapy, which most often includes vitamins, minerals, and sometimes botanical isolates has become very popular these days. IV vitamin C and cancer is a big topic in the world today. In very specific circumstances IV vitamin therapy can be excellent for people who have digestive disorders that prevent proper absorption of nutrients; however, don’t be fooled into thinking that this is an all-natural holistic medicine. It is extremely invasive, and at the massive pharmacological doses used, I don’t believe it’s good for you. We need to get back to gentle nourishing medicine that supports innate healing in a more unitive way.

For thousands of years, medical herbalists in most cultures have utilized the power of whole herbs to promote health and support the body’s innate ability to improve the aging process and promote longevity.

White willow bark (Salix alba) has been used for thousands of years as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic. The willow tree stands as a powerful symbol in the history of medicine, linked to the discovery of one of the world’s most widely-used drugs: aspirin. This humble tree, with its graceful branches and soothing bark, has played a pivotal role in human health for millennia, offering a fascinating journey from ancient wisdom to modern pharmaceutical breakthroughs.

Improving Cell Metabolism with Botanical Compounds

Healthy cell metabolism or normal cellular metabolism is when the chemical reactions that occur in living cells are working properly. Our bodies are made up of over 37 trillion human cells: 37,200,000,000,000. For our bodies to work right, our cells must engage in healthy cell metabolism. Plant medicine can be a powerful ally for cancer patients.
