Updates To The Book “ERIC IS WINNING”
May 2010
MY IMPROVEMENT -- GLUTATHIONE -- ASPARAGUS --VITAMIN D --
THYROID -- IMPROVEMENT LETTER
If you read last month's Update, you already know about my hospital visit.
I knew my ALS condition was going downhill everyday I was in there because
I was not getting organic food or pure water, and no exercise. I had five
different physical therapists visit me and they did next to nothing to
help me maintain my strength; so I knew I had to get out of there. I was
forced to check out AMA (against medical advice). My personal alternative
doctor insisted, and I agreed, for me to come to his office immediately
which I did. He gave me the usual vitamin/mineral plus glutathione IV.
Then he gave me an additional IV of a heavy dose of more glutathione.
As a result, I recovered in a few days.
MORE ON GLUTATHIONE
I read a lot of health articles and books. I recently read a long article
on glutathione and I learned something that I didn't know before. All
glutathione is a chemical that your body makes and without it your body
CANNOT detoxify no matter what else you may do. So, providing your body
with extra glutathione will not only help your body eliminate toxins,
but also is necessary to supplement any other form of detox treatment.
As a result of all that I have read about glutathione, I believe your
must have more of it if you are really serious about detoxifying.
ASPARAGUS
Now here is some great news for those of you who are on a limited budget:
ASPARAGUS IS THE ONLY VEGETABLE I KNOW OF THAT CAUSES YOUR BODY TO PRODUCE
MORE OF ITS OWN GLUTATHIONE.
Note: Our new book "Surviving Without Your MD" includes one
full chapter on cancer with many possible cures. Many people believe that
eating asparagus three times a day may cure cancer.
THERE IS MUCH, MUCH MORE THAT WILL HELP YOU BE HEALTHIER IN OUR NEW BOOK.
You might want to read it and also tell others about it. See the "Order
a Book" tab on this web site.
VITAMIN D3
Here is just one more major supplement you must know about. Vitamin D
is really important, BUT Vitamin D3 is the all-natural vitamin and that
is the one you want. Vitamin D2 is a toxic drug. You do not want that
one. According to what I have read, you may need as much as 5,000 or 10,000
units a day. Most people suffer from Vitamin D deficiency. One example
is that many people who have chronic depression have a Vitamin D deficiency.
Now you can put your naked body out in the sun one or two hours a day
and you may have enough Vitamin D. Most of us can't do that so we need
the supplement.
THYROID
I had my thyroid gland surgically removed because of a toxic goiter over
50 years ago. As a result, I must take a thyroid supplement everyday.
So, I have over 50 years of experience with the effect of various amounts
of thyroid. If I take too little, I become weak and lethargic. If I take
too much, I become overly stimulated, nervous and very anxious. I found
by my own experiment that more thyroid will improve my ability to walk
and talk. As a result of that, I would suggest that all ALS patients have
their thyroid checked by their MD. There is a range of all test results
and you can tell your MD that you want to be at the high end of the range.
I believe this is critical.
ALS IMPROVEMENT
Here is just one of our recent e-mail:
********************
Dear Eric and Glenna,
Thank you very much for your positive, hopeful and inspiring book of your
personal successful struggle with ALS. After it became clear the ALS specialist
could do nothing for me but recommend 5 grams per day of creatine, I researched
online, found your book and read it twice. I began colon hydrotherapy
immediately (in early 2005) and scheduled complete dental revision (amalgams,
metal crowns, root-canaled teeth and jawbone osteonecrosis removed). I
switched to a whole-food organic diet, did many sessions of IV chelation,
and began 3 IV pushes per week of 1400mg glutatione. Finally, I went raw
vegan 8 months ago.
The result? My right hand and left toes almost never cramp up anymore,
and fasciculations are so rare now as to catch me by surprise. I believe
my disease progression has stopped. I never would have had the self-control
and courage to make such sweeping (and expensive) changes in my life without
the full conviction that if it worked for you, it would work for me. Like
you, I also have a very supportive spouse. Both of us marvel at how wonderfully
designed our bodies are to heal themselves if we just feed them right
and quit poisoning them. Truly, "in a fear-inspiring way [we] are
wonderfully made". (Psalm 139:14).
Sincerely and gratefully,
Carol Jensen

Here is her reply to my request to publish her letter:
Dear Eric and Glenna,
You are welcome to use everything I send you. The irony of my testimony
is that some wouldn't take it seriously if they knew that I had never
had an official diagnosis from the ALS specialist to whom I was referred.
Doctors had already ruled out spinal compression, MS and Parkinson's.
The slowing nerve conduction velocity, the fasciculations, muscle spasms
and cramps, and rapid atrophy of hand, arm, shoulder, back, chest, feet
and facial muscles (as well as gradual deterioration in speaking, whistling,
and swallowing ability) were enough to convince me that I needed to stop
the breakdown of motor neurons before I became disabled. Actual disability
is what the ALS specialist wanted to see before "pronouncing"
me. I guess it wasn't enough that my legs felt like I was pulling them
through mud when I tried to run, or that doors had become difficult to
open with just one hand (sound familiar?).
My family physician has always taken me seriously and has cooperated with
IV chelation and IV glutathione. Like you, I am also fortunate enough
to have a spouse who loves me and is backing me up in my efforts to preserve
my remaining motor function.
