Alternative Brain Fuel

In this case, insulin problems prevent brain cells from accepting glucose, their primary fuel. Without it, they eventually die.

But there is an alternative fuel -- ketones, which cells easily accept. Ketones are metabolized in the liver after you eat medium chain triglycerides, found in coconut oil.

Dr. Newport added coconut oil to her husband Steve's diet. Just two weeks later, he took the clock test again and demonstrated stunning improvement.

"I thought at the time, was it just good luck? Was it a lot of prayer? Was it the coconut oil?" she said. "And I thought, well, we're going to keep the coconut oil going."

Three weeks later, Steve took the clock test a third time and continued to perform better on it. And it wasn't just intellectually, he also improved emotionally and physically.

"He was not able to run. He was able to run again," she recalled. "He could not read for about a year and a half, but after two or three months he was able to read."

"Instead of being very sluggish, not talking very much in the morning, he would come out in the morning with energy, talkative, and joking, and he could find his water and his utensils," Dr. Newport said.

She documented Steve's success in a book titled, Alzheimer's Disease: What If There Was A Cure? Dr. Newport received many "thank you" letters from people whose loved ones were suffering from Alzheimer's. Each of the letters claimed their family member was helped after they followed Steve's diet.

Tumor promotion by dietary fat in azoxymethane-induced colon carcinogenesis in female F344 rats

Tumor promotion by dietary fat in azoxymethane-induced colon carcinogenesis in female F344 rats: influence of amount and source of dietary fat.

Reddy BS, Maeura Y.

Abstract

The promoting effect of dietary corn oil (CO), safflower oil (SO), olive oil (OO), coconut oil (CC), and medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) on azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon tumors was studied in female F344 rats. The animals were fed low-fat diets containing 5% CO, 5% SO, or 5% OO 2 weeks before, during, and 1 week after sc injection of 20 mg AOM/kg body weight.

One week after the AOM treatment, groups of animals were transferred to high-fat diets containing 23.52% CO, 23.52% SO, 23.52% OO, and 23.52% CC, or 5.88% CO + 17.64% MCT; the remaining animals were continued on 5% fat diets. All animals were fed these diets until the termination of the experiment.

Body weights and intakes of calories, protein, and micronutrients were comparable among the various dietary groups. The incidence of colon tumors was increased in rats fed diets containing high-CO and high-SO compared to those fed low-CO and low-SO diets, whereas the diets containing high OO, CC, or MCT had no promoting effect on colon tumor incidence.

There was a significant increase in the excretion of fecal deoxycholic acid, lithocholic acid, and 12-ketolithocholic acid in animals fed the high-CO and high-SO diets and no difference in these secondary bile acids excretion in animals fed the high-OO and high-CC diets compared to those animals fed their respective 5% fat diets.

This study thus indicates that not only the amount of dietary fat but also the fatty acid composition (type) of fat are important factors in the determination of the promoting effect in colon carcinogenesis.

R.J Experiences

I have been diagnosed with AIDS. I knew for a long time that I was sick but was in denial. The evidence of my sickness happened when I was getting boils daily. When the body would fight one infection another would appear. I had trouble maintaining my weight.

I was in constant pain from infections. My skin was losing color. I was becoming pale. I had severe acne. The HIV virus practically stopped my body from healing. I would bleed easily. I was tired all the time. I had to drink a lot of coffee and take vitamins just to feel normal. Then my body told me that my end was near.

My uncle took HIV drugs and they did not help him at all. I think the HIV drugs he took helped him die faster. I was not going to help the pharmaceutical companies get rich, and I was not going to a HIV doctor that was going to tell me that there is no hope for me.

I read an article about a Filipino teenager or young man that had AIDS and could not afford HIV drugs. The Filipino doctor told him to take coconut oil. The young man’s health improved over time and his viral load is dropping.

I tried it. I have taken the coconut oil since August of 2009 and in the month of November of 2009 I no longer have daily infections and my skin has cleared up significantly. My skin color is returning back to normal. I don’t need to take two hour naps anymore.

I found out that castor oil complements coconut oil. I take 6 teaspoons of coconut oil and1 teaspoon of castor oil twice a day. The castor oil seems to boost the coconut oil’s ability to fight viruses. I thank God for the Internet, if it wasn’t for this website and the Internet I would be dead. Doctors don’t practice medicine, they practice drugs. I want to add red palm oil to my regimen to see if my health will improve at a greater rate. I believe that coconut oil, castor oil, and maybe palm oil will complement each other. My theory is that coconut oil destroys viruses floating in the blood stream. Castor oil stops the viruses from copying in infected cells. Palm oil has carotene and other anti-free radical chemicals. That is why I believe that these three oils will accelerate the healing process of sick people.
