“There is No Better Feeling:” Child’s Autistic Symptoms Miraculously Disappear After Doctor Makes One Simple-Yet-Profound Change

Recent estimates predict the cost for autism care in America will rise to a staggering $461 billion (if not a trillion dollars) by 2025, and the current costs are already more than double the combined costs of stroke and hypertension.
But what if doctors have been treating autism all wrong, and simpler, more effective solutions are within reach for thousands of parents?
In a short YouTube video below Jackson is acting like a normally functioning smiling 6-year-old, but it was not always this way. Jackson was diagnosed on the autism spectrum at 22 months old. Instead of listening to the mainstream medicine critics that autism is incurable, his father found a functional medicine doctor, Dr. Mark Hyman, who worked to address major health issues that Jackson had: gut inflammation, heavy metal toxicity – especially mercury, and nutritional imbalances.
After these conditions were treated, the autistic symptoms miraculously disappeared.
“There is really no better feeling than to bring a child back from the terrible place,” Mark said.
Dr. Hyman believes we treat autism completely wrong. Instead of a brain disorder, he calls it a body disorder that affects the brain and treats it accordingly.
“Treating autism as a body disorder that affects the brain gives us many treatment choices. Children treated in this way can often have dramatic and remarkable — if not miraculous — recoveries,” he writes.
Can Autistic Symptoms Be Reversed?
The mainstream medical system is quick to label autism irreversible and incurable. But how can we honestly say that, when we are still learning more about the human body and its enormous healing abilities every day?
Research points out that there likely are multiple of causes for autism, both internal and external. But with the rapid rise of autism since the 1990s — a 600% increase over the last two decades — many doctors have begun to wonder if most of the autism cases these days are caused by outside sources: heavy metals, especially in food, vaccinations, the environment, and other potential sources.
The first one, heavy metals, has raised red flags in a lot of doctors’ eyes, and most naturopathic doctors will immediately recommend a heavy metal detoxification for children who were diagnosed on the autistic spectrum.
As in the case of the young Jackson, heavy metal detoxification has shown to produce amazing results. Even though the proof is anecdotal, for now, it is important to take into account because heavy metal toxicity and autism have many similar symptoms.
Heavy Metal Toxicity and Autism Symptoms Often Align
Two prevalent heavy metals that contaminate our world today are mercury and aluminium. Both are toxic and are responsible for some difficult health challenges.
The symptoms of inorganic mercury poisoning are: emotional changes, headaches and insomnia, muscle twitching, muscle atrophy, and decreased cognitive functions.
The symptoms of organic mercury include neurological impairment, loss of coordination, and muscle weakness.
The symptoms aluminum toxicity is associated with: mood changes, muscle weakness, seizures, delayed growth in children and often mimic symptoms of other diseases.
And what symptoms do children on the autistic spectrum experience?
developmental delays
problems expressing their emotions
speech problems
aggression
behavior problems
mood swings
problems or unusual walking
cognitive issues
Many parents have reported all these symptoms, along with seizures, muscle weakness, and vomiting, following a childhood vaccination. The controversial documentary movie ‘Vaxxed’ shows many such transformations in video footage provided by parents, and while it may be disturbing in some cases, this footage drives home the point that vaccine additives really are capable of changing children for the worse overnight.
Are Vaccinations, Heavy Metals and Autism Connected?
Now that we see the astounding similarities between heavy metal poisoning and autism symptoms, one last detail that many believe seems too real to be a coincidence, is the numbers of autism diagnoses by age compared to the childhood vaccination schedule.
Most children diagnosed on the autism spectrum show symptoms of developmental issues between the ages of 13 to 18 months.
This is also the age when the children receive the most vaccinations. The official CDC schedule recommends nine vaccinations between 12 and 18 months: HepB, DTaP, Hib, PCV, IPV, MMR, Varicella, HepA, and a flu shot.
Some doctors have been known to give many of them in one visit to save time (one parent recorded his son receiving six shots at once at the age of 2).
Most of the childhood vaccinations contain aluminum, and flu shots contain mercury.
HepB, depending on manufacturer, contains either aluminum hydroxide, or aluminum sulfate and amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate. All different forms of it are toxic. DTaP contains either aluminum phosphate or aluminum hydroxide. Hib named PedvaxHIB contains aluminum hydroxphosphate sulfate. PCV named PCV13 – Prevnar 13 contains aluminum phosphate. IPV, when administered together with DTaP contains aluminum hydroxide. HepA contains either aluminum hydroxide or amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate. Most flu shots contain thimerosol (mercury).
Aluminium salts used in vaccines have been shown to have adverse long-term neurological reactions.
report this adBy the age of 22 months (when Jackson was diagnosed), a child will receive up to 26 vaccinations when following the CDC schedule.
No matter where you stand on the vaccine debate, the amount of links between heavy metal poisoning, autism, and vaccination reaction symptoms are starting to look less and less coincidental with each new case (the government has paid out over $3 billion in damages since 1986 on behalf of vaccine companies that have been granted immunity from lawsuits).
Dr. Hyman himself is pro-vaccination, but is urging the heavy metals, specifically mercury, to be removed from vaccinations after seeing the damage they can do to children first-hand.
Thankfully, because of advances in the holistic autism field, those who do suffer such damage (like Jackson in this case) may finally have ways to reverse it.

During her two pregnancies she developed gestational diabetes, and was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes few years later. Her doctor prescribed her a variety of diabetes drugs, but all of them made her feel ill every day, and she finally had enough.
“After feeling unwell for so long, I refused to take any more medication. I told my doctor I was going to try and cure my diabetes through diet,” Shelly writes for Forks Over Knives. “He laughed at me,” she added.
But that did not stop her from trying the natural route and succeeding. She never went back to her doctor, instead switching to a plant-based diet with a lot of raw vegetables and fruits.
She followed advice from the Forks Over Knives documentary, and from plant-based physicians such as Dr. John McDougall from Santa Rosa, California and Dr. T.

She is not the only one who successfully reversed type 2 diabetes (as well as other diseases) with a proper diet. Forks Over Knives has collected dozens of success stories from ordinary people.
If you want to reverse diabetes naturally, here are few tips that may be able to help.
Tips on Reversing Diabetes Naturally
According to wellness physician Dr. Josh Axe type 2 diabetes is completely reversible, and can be done so in under 30 days.
Type 1 diabetes can also be greatly improved. To improve type 1 diabetes, which is an autoimmune disorder, the following is advised:
– Detoxify from heavy metals and to get rid of viruses
– Avoid GMO foods, wheat, cow’s milk, and soy
– Heal leaky gut and autoimmune issues
To reverse type 2 diabetes, which is a metabolic disorder causes by high blood sugar levels, it is recommended to do the following:
– Avoid refined sugars, grains (especially gluten), non-RAW cows’s milk, alcohol; GMOs corn, soy, and canola. – Get rid of hydrogenated oils (vegetable, soybean, cottonseed, and canola oils), which are a source of highly dangerous trans fats – Include high fiber foods into your diets: vegetables, seeds, nuts, berries, and avocados. – Eat foods rich in chromium, such as RAW cheese, broccoli, green beans, and grass-fed beef. – Incorporate coconut oil into your diet, as it helps balance blood sugar levels. – Eat foods high in omega-3 fatty acids, such as wild-caught fish, walnuts, chia seeds, hemp seeds, pastured eggs and more. Omega 3s will help lessen inflammation caused by high blood sugar. – Choose low glycemic foods. Vegetables, seeds and nuts, avocados, coconut, organic meat and eggs, RAW dairy, as well as wild-caught fish are all low-glycemic. – Add dietary supplements to your wellness routine that help balance blood sugar levels. Dr. Axe recommends Chromium Picolinate, cinnamon, fish oil, alpha-lipoic acid, and fiber powder. – Exercise daily. A 20-30 minute walk after a meal every day, and 20-40 minutes of cardio training 3-5 days a week has been shown beneficial.
And if you are at risk for diabetes, here is some advice on how to prevent it.
– Eat a variety of organic vegetables of fruits of every color, because all of them will have different nutrients and plant-rich diet has been shown to be a great preventative. – Avoid plastics because some chemicals in them, such as phthalates, which have been linked with an increased diabetes risk. These chemicals are also found in beauty products. Avoid products that contain “fragrance.” – Do yoga. A study in India found that people who did yoga had stable blood sugar levels. – Get plenty of sleep.

Robin Williams was always known more for his outrageous antics than his commentary on issues surrounding topics like health and politics, but like most comedians who speak without a filter, he has the ability to absolutely nail it whenever he does.
Case in point: the following rant he went on in about prescription drugs and the absurd side effects that come with them.
Dozens of comics have offered their own take on drug company side effects but the bit he pulls off at the end is something completely unique, something that is genuinely Robin Williams (like pretty much every he produced in his career).
He also compares the change in attitudes among drugs from era to era, from “Robin, drugs will kill you” to “Robin, you need drugs to live,” as modern day doctors like to claim.
Check out the clip (all rights to the artist and production company) below…and RIP to one of the one and only Robin Williams, one of my favorite childhood comedy stars…

althealthworks--2020-09-04--This is What Happens to Your Body When You Eat Meat and Potatoes Together

Do you eat your meat and potatoes together at the same meal ?
If you ’ re a vegetarian that answer is obviously a resounding “ no , ” but for millions of people it ’ s something they ’ ve probably never even thought twice about .
“ He ’ s a meat and potatoes kind of guy ” is of course a common phrase and just one example of how eating these two favorite foods together has become ingrained in our DNA .

Should you really abandon your favorite Sunday meal of meat and potatoes ?
If you truly care about your health then the evidence is pretty clear .
The Problem With “ Meat and Potatoes ” The science of food combining is not well known , but many naturopathic doctors have discovered some surprising patterns and rules for better health .
One of the biggest no-no ’ s is actually combining meat such as steak with high starch carbohydrates @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with your hamburgers .
Dr. Wayne Pickering , a longtime friend of fitness legend Jack Lalanne , tells us why in this article .
“ Starches require an alkaline digestive medium to digest , ” he notes .
But meat such as steaks require heavy acids to digest .

The Problem With “Meat and Potatoes”
The science of food combining is not well known, but many naturopathic doctors have discovered some surprising patterns and rules for better health.
One of the biggest no-no’s is actually combining meat such as steak with high starch carbohydrates such as potatoes, or even buns with your hamburgers.

One Doctor’s Incredible Personal Story
Cutting out the meat and potatoes (or just bread and meat) together is one highly effective way that Dr. William Howard Hay, founder of the Hay Diet, was able to recover his health, and lose a ton of weight for that matter.
He had weighed 225 pounds and suffered from all sorts of medical conditions including a dilated heart, which he found out about while attempting to catch a fast-moving train.
Using the simple plan of not eating proteins such as meat with starches, he began to treat himself and lost 50 pounds in about three months while recovering from his life-threatening heart condition.
Dr. Hay then went on to create the Hay Diet (this book from Doris Grant has a good rundown) and the rest is history.
Suffice it to say if you’ve noticed any of the symptoms above or had any health problems similar to Dr. Hay’s, it may be time to stop eating your meat and potatoes together and see what kind of differences you notice.
Health is complex, but at the end of the day this one simple change really could save your health, not to mention your life.

Is there a limit to how extreme the industrial agriculture system can get? Grinding up male baby chickens by the thousands, keeping animals in horrible conditions, poisoning the consumers, and now they are literally drilling holes in cows by a processes called fistulation.
Fistulation includes partial removal of a animal’s abdomen, then surgically placing a plastic ring, cannula, to keep the flesh open to an 8-inch hole, making the stomach exposed.
Why? The claim is that this practice is healthy for the animal, as it allows transferring microbes from one animal to the other (even though GI diseases can be accidentally shared as well), as well as to monitor how the animal digests food.
Animals who had this procedure are also called cannulated.
Cannulated anomals have existed since 1833, and are now used mostly by meat and dairy industries, but are also used by veterinary school to study the cows’ digestion.
“Just unplug the top, don a shoulder-length plastic sleeve, and in your arm goes into the rumen of a live cow,” according to Modern Farmer.
When analyzing digestion, it is not just grass, hay and grain that is placed inside the stomach:
“There is a day when students get to come in with any food items, ranging from Snickers bars to Twinkies. Students get to place these food items inside the steer and observe how long it takes for the cow to digest each of the items,” reported The Standard of Missouri State University.
Some argue that the procedure is painless because the animals are medicated during surgery and “don’t feel any pain,” others say that this is extremely inhumane. Watch how it is done and decide for yourself.
This is how the procedure is done step by step. Viewer discretion advised:

althealthworks--2020-09-03--Recent Study Finds Link Between Parkinson’s Disease, Pesticides Found in Milk

Parkinson ’ s Disease ( PD ) is a chronic progressive disorder of the nervous system that affects the person ’ s ability to move .
According to the CDC , every 3 out of 100,000 people in the US died from this disease in the 1980s , in the early 2000s that number doubled .
A recent study published in the journal Neurology on Dec. 9 shows a possible link to this increase — a pesticide ( heptachlor ) that was found in milk in the early 1980s .
The researchers from Shiga University of Medical Science in Japan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ men in Hawaii – the state where this pesticide was used frequently , reported The Huffington Post .
Men who drank two or more glasses of milk per day ( 16 oz ) at the start of the study had 40 % fewer brain cells in the substantia nigra ( associated with movement ) part of the brain 30 years later ( comparing to men who drank less than two cups of milk per day ) .
The researchers also discovered that 90 % of men who drank the milk had residues of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their brains .
Only 63 % of men who did not drink milk had these residues .
According to the Medical Encyclopedia from the U.S. National Library of Medicine , PD slowly develops as cells are destroyed in parts of the brain , especially in the substantia nigra .
Because PD is a slow progressive disease , visible symptoms of it can take decades to appear , meaning this disease may still be manifesting itself in people who have been exposed to heptachlor and other pesticides .
Was This Pesticide Prevalent in Hawaii @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pesticide was used for insect control by the pineapple industry in Hawaii in 1980s , and high levels of it ended up in the milk supply because the cows were fed parts of the pineapple debris , according to Time .
It was banned in commercial agriculture in 1988 , according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency .
Time magazine reported that even though banned , the pesticide may remain in water and soil for many years .
How the Study Was Conducted : The study , titled “ Midlife milk consumption and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” looked at 449 Japanese-American men for at least 30 years until their deaths .
After they died , the researched performed autopsies , studies the cells in the substantia nigra and the residues of the pesticide in the brains .
Even though it is known fact that a lot of milk in 1980s contained the pesticide , and a high amount of it , the milk that the men drank was not tested , so there is no way to show a cause-and-effect relationship between PD and this pesticide .
However , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two .
The study ’ s author Robert D. Abbott said that the researchers see “ no other explanation for how heptachlor epoxide found its way into the brains of men who consumed milk.
” Can pesticides cause PD ?
The current understating in medicine is that PD is caused by a combination of genes and environmental factors , diet being one of them .
Abbott said that people should try to avoid consuming food that contains pesticides in general .
This Pesticide is Still Used Today !
Heptachlor/ heptachlor epoxide was banned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for insect-control in homes but is still used for fire ant control in power transformers , according to the CDC .
Unfortunately , heptachlor is not the only pesticide that may come with an inherent risk for Parkinson ’ s Disease .
As many as 11 commonly used pesticides have been linked to PD , including glyphosate , the active ingredient in Monsanto ’ s Roundup .
And if this study is any indication it may be wise to avoid non-organic milk , since today ’ s cows are known to feast on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with glyphosate , instead of their natural diet of nutrient-rich grasses .

Is there a legitimate Milk-Parkinson’s connection?
Even though it is known fact that a lot of milk in 1980s contained the pesticide, and a high amount of it, the milk that the men drank was not tested, so there is no way to show a cause-and-effect relationship between PD and this pesticide. However, the study shows an association between the two.
The study’s author Robert D. Abbott said that the researchers see “no other explanation for how heptachlor epoxide found its way into the brains of men who consumed milk.”
“We don’t have all the data yet, but we are close to finding the smoking gun here. It’s not complete, but it’s very suspicious,” he said.
Can pesticides cause PD? The current understating in medicine is that PD is caused by a combination of genes and environmental factors, diet being one of them.
“Your genes load the gun and the environment pulls the trigger,” states the National Parkinson Foundation website.
Abbott said that people should try to avoid consuming food that contains pesticides in general.

And if this study is any indication it may be wise to avoid non-organic milk, since today’s cows are known to feast on genetically engineered corn that has been doused with glyphosate, instead of their natural diet of nutrient-rich grasses.

Tennessee Woman Who Was Never Tested and Died Six Months Ago Gets Letter Informing Her That She is COVID-19 Positive

The coronavirus situation has prompted wholesale societal changes at every level , leading many to proclaim that wearing masks , social distancing and avoiding face-to-face human contact should be the “ new normal.
” But recently , stats directly from the CDC ’ s own website have contradicted the prevailing media-given numbers that make it seem as if all coronavirus-related deaths are caused directly by the virus , placing the number of deaths attributed only to the virus at a paltry 6 % .
The other 94 % had at least one , or multiple co-morbidities , casting doubt on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the cause .
Meanwhile , the mainstream media chorus has once again taken upon itself to “ debunk ” such theories , while lines in the sand are being drawn between those who believe the mainstream narrative and those who think the virus is being overblown .
Regardless of your opinion in this arena , it ’ s well worth knowing the growing list of inconsistencies , major hiccups , false positives , and other coronavirus testing snafus that have popped up in recent months .
One of the most glaring ones occurred @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a son who lost his mother way back in February is now openly questioning the accuracy of the local health department following a laughingly incorrect COVID-19 test result that must be heard to be believed .
According to a report from ABC Local 24 in Memphis , a Shelby County , Tennessee man is questioning the local health department after he received a letter saying his mother Sandra is COVID-19 positive , even though she passed away in February .
Troy Whittington said he was surprised upon opening the letter and knew it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no testing being conducted at the time .
“ I ’ m just having a hard time understanding how they can say someone has COVID-19 when they are not even alive , ” Whittington said about the letter , which told him his mother needed to isolate .

The coronavirus situation has prompted wholesale societal changes at every level, leading many to proclaim that wearing masks, social distancing and avoiding face-to-face human contact should be the “new normal.”
But recently, stats directly from the CDC’s own website have contradicted the prevailing media-given numbers that make it seem as if all coronavirus-related deaths are caused directly by the virus, placing the number of deaths attributed only to the virus at a paltry 6%.
The other 94% had at least one, or multiple co-morbidities, casting doubt on whether COVID-19 should have been recorded as the cause.
Meanwhile, the mainstream media chorus has once again taken upon itself to “debunk” such theories, while lines in the sand are being drawn between those who believe the mainstream narrative and those who think the virus is being overblown.
Regardless of your opinion in this arena, it’s well worth knowing the growing list of inconsistencies, major hiccups, false positives, and other coronavirus testing snafus that have popped up in recent months.
One of the most glaring ones occurred recently in Memphis, Tennessee, as a son who lost his mother way back in February is now openly questioning the accuracy of the local health department following a laughingly incorrect COVID-19 test result that must be heard to be believed.
Woman Who Died in February Receives Positive COVID-19 test Result
According to a report from ABC Local 24 in Memphis, a Shelby County, Tennessee man is questioning the local health department after he received a letter saying his mother Sandra is COVID-19 positive, even though she passed away in February.
Troy Whittington said he was surprised upon opening the letter and knew it was false, saying that there was no testing being conducted at the time.
“I’m just having a hard time understanding how they can say someone has COVID-19 when they are not even alive,” Whittington said about the letter, which told him his mother needed to isolate.
Sandra Whittington died on February 16, weeks before the first case of the disease was detected in Shelby County.
“It’s been 6 months, almost 7, since she passed away. There was no testing that was done at that time. On her death certificate it was stated she died, what the cause of death was, and it was not COVID-19. It was COPD,” he said according to the news station’s report.
Sandra had fought a long battle with COPD and was considered to be in Stage 4 when she died in hospice at the home of a friend.
When Troy called the health department, he was told his mother took a COVID test on June 20, which was impossible considering she had been cremated.
“I tried to call the health department this morning, ask them why this was going on. She said she would have to get a supervisor. She was sorry for the mistake or she couldn’t tell me any information till she got a supervisor, and I haven’t heard back from them.”
Whittington said the situation makes him question all COVID-19 test results, not just those of his mother. Several inaccuracies and false positives have been reported across the country recently, including in Fort Myers, Florida where one coronavirus testing lab initially reported entirely positive results, which they had actually been instructed to do by state officials before local whistleblowers realize what was going on and forced them to report negative test results as well.
In response to the Tennessee incident, the Shelby County Health Department issued the following response.
“Dr. Haushalter is reaching out to Mr. Whittington to apologize on behalf of the Health Department about the mistake and the additional pain it might have caused the family. She also states that new protocols will be put in place to make sure a mistake like this doesn’t happen again in the future.”

Common Type of Sprouts Dramatically Improves Cancer Patient Survival Rates, Suppressed Research Shows

Many forms of cancer are ultimately deadly , and few cancers are more dangerous than pancreatic adenocarcinoma , which represents less than 2 % of all cancer cases but is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the United States for both men and women .
The disease had a five-year survival rate of less than 5 % as of 2013 , according researchers from the Medical College at the University of Wisconsin and the University of Alabama-Birmingham , who released the results of a promising new clinical trial in August 2020 .
The researchers studied the effects of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cancer : broccoli sprouts , a powerful yet inexpensive dietary addition that could hold the key to higher survival rates .
The pilot study , undertaken on 40 patients with palliative chemotherapy , divided the subjects into two groups : one with a placebo and one with a treatment regiment of 15 capsules of pulverized broccoli sprouts containing 90 mg/508 μmol sulforaphane ( a natural compound found in cruciferous vegetables with many health benefits ) and 180 mg/411 μmol glucoraphanin ( another cruciferous vegetable compound that is converted to sulforaphane ) or methylcellulose @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) were administered daily for up to 1 year .
“ Broccoli sulforaphane is a promising new treatment due to the results of recent epidemiological , experimental and patient studies , ” the researchers stated as part of the abstract of the study , which was published in the journal Investigational New Drugs .
Twenty-nine of the patients took the broccoli sprouts supplement while 11 took the placebo .
When the trial was finished , the mean death rate was found to be lower in the treatment group during the first six months @ @ @ @ @ @ @ % /18 % , day 90 : 0 % /25 % , and day 180 : 25 % /43 % ) .
After one year , a high drop-out rate was recorded ( 72 % in the treatment group and 55 % in the placebo group ) according to the study .
Some patients had difficulty taking in 15 capsules of the broccoli sprouts supplement , the study ’ s authors write , and the sprouts sometimes increased digestive problems , nausea and emesis ( vomiting ) .
But for those who were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the pay-off was clear .
Broccoli Sprouts to Be Patented as a Drug in Near Future ?
According to the researchers , the results were not “ statistically significant , ” but they did state that the “ knowledge about the feasibility is the basis for the development of new sulforaphane drugs.
” Any potential new drugs would be based off of the natural substance studied , as is often the case , allowing pharmaceutical companies to patent their formulas for the purposes of preserving profits .
As usual , this research is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ media , as pharmaceutical giants swoop in to create and patent new drugs based off of natural healing supplements that are incredibly powerful just the way nature made them .
Aside from the possible digestive issues ( which could very well have been caused by the chemotherapy being administered ) , broccoli sprouts have no known side effects other than the potential for them to be contaminated with harmful bacteria if they are not grown in a sanitary environment .
Broccoli Sprouts Are One of the Most Powerful Healing Foods of All-Time As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interest in patenting them , broccoli sprouts are easily one of the healthiest foods on the market .
According to Dr. David Jockers , broccoli sprouts help facilitate profound healing at the cellular level , in six specific ways : The sulforaphane mentioned above is a precursor to healthy bodily function in a wide variety of areas , paving the way for a powerful anti-inflammatory and cancer fighting response .
“ Studies found that a powerful antioxidant signaling gene referred to as NRF2 is dependent on the bioavailability of SF in the body @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is “ like a strong leader that provides the tools and support for his team to reach a goal.
” The anti-cancer enzymes Quinone Reductase , Glutathione S-Transferase , and Phase II Enzymes are all provided by broccoli sprouts as well .

“ It is estimated that each cell in the body withstands 10,000 hits by free radicals each day .
Glutathione disarms these free radicals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the oxidative stress related damage that has occurred , ” Jockers said .
Jockers states that the sprouts also contain quercetin , which is “ intricately involved with preventing the spread of cancer ” by blocking the signals telling cancer cells to reproduce and spread .
The substance also allows cancer cells to perform apoptosis , a natural , ongoing process in which they self destruct within the human body before they have a chance to proliferate and become harmful .

The antimicrobial compounds in broccoli sprouts help to cleanse the digestive tract of harmful bacteria , fostering a far healthier environment where cancer cells are hard-pressed to survive .
Again because of the “ magic antixoidant ” sulforaphane , broccoli sprouts are able to protect against harmful gut bacteria such as Helicobacter pylori in the gastrointestinal tract .

The researchers studied the effects of a potent natural substance on the deadly cancer: broccoli sprouts, a powerful yet inexpensive dietary addition that could hold the key to higher survival rates.
Death Rate Much Lower in Broccoli Sprouts Group
The pilot study, undertaken on 40 patients with palliative chemotherapy, divided the subjects into two groups: one with a placebo and one with a treatment regiment of 15 capsules of pulverized broccoli sprouts containing 90 mg/508 μmol sulforaphane (a natural compound found in cruciferous vegetables with many health benefits) and 180 mg/411 μmol glucoraphanin (another cruciferous vegetable compound that is converted to sulforaphane) or methylcellulose (a chemical compound derived from cellulose) were administered daily for up to 1 year.

A Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a higher survival rate, the study’s abstract section added.
After one year, a high drop-out rate was recorded (72% in the treatment group and 55% in the placebo group) according to the study.
Some patients had difficulty taking in 15 capsules of the broccoli sprouts supplement, the study’s authors write, and the sprouts sometimes increased digestive problems, nausea and emesis (vomiting). But for those who were able to continue consuming the sprouts, the pay-off was clear.

Broccoli Sprouts Are One of the Most Powerful Healing Foods of All-Time
As evidenced by the pharmaceutical industry’s interest in patenting them, broccoli sprouts are easily one of the healthiest foods on the market.
According to Dr. David Jockers, broccoli sprouts help facilitate profound healing at the cellular level, in six specific ways:
1. Activating Antioxidant Pathways-
The sulforaphane mentioned above is a precursor to healthy bodily function in a wide variety of areas, paving the way for a powerful anti-inflammatory and cancer fighting response.
“Studies found that a powerful antioxidant signaling gene referred to as NRF2 is dependent on the bioavailability of SF in the body,” Jockers wrote.
The substance is “like a strong leader that provides the tools and support for his team to reach a goal.”
2. Anti-Cancer Enzymes-
The anti-cancer enzymes Quinone Reductase, Glutathione S-Transferase, and Phase II Enzymes are all provided by broccoli sprouts as well.
3. Glutathione Production-

“It is estimated that each cell in the body withstands 10,000 hits by free radicals each day. Glutathione disarms these free radicals before they wreak havoc and cleans up the oxidative stress related damage that has occurred,” Jockers said.
4. Source of Quercetin-
Jockers states that the sprouts also contain quercetin, which is “intricately involved with preventing the spread of cancer” by blocking the signals telling cancer cells to reproduce and spread.
The substance also allows cancer cells to perform apoptosis, a natural, ongoing process in which they self destruct within the human body before they have a chance to proliferate and become harmful.
5. Antimicrobial Powers-
Jockers cites a 2014 study published in the journal Trials stating that broccoli sprouts have been used since ancient times as natural antibiotics and key components of antiviral drugs.
The antimicrobial compounds in broccoli sprouts help to cleanse the digestive tract of harmful bacteria, fostering a far healthier environment where cancer cells are hard-pressed to survive.
6. Sprouts Improve Gut Microflora-
Again because of the “magic antioxidant” sulforaphane, broccoli sprouts are able to protect against harmful gut bacteria such as Helicobacter pylori in the gastrointestinal tract.
This antioxidant, found in broccoli sprouts or broccoli sprout supplements, is known to protect against gastritis and to help reduce the risk of stomach cancer.
Consuming sprouts or supplements containing sprouts can also protect against intestinal and colorectal cancer, Dr. Jockers states on his website.
“Maintaining healthy gut microflora is essential to a healthy immune system required for reducing inflammation and reducing your risk of cancer,” Jockers concludes.
How to Get More Broccoli Sprouts in Your Diet
Despite being one of the biggest powerhouse cancer-fighting foods in the world, broccoli sprouts are not widely found at most grocery stores, especially in their most pure, organic form. I do find them at Meijer and Kroger grocery stores from time-to-time, where they are generally cheaper than at the health food store.
If you can’t find them at the store, you can always grow them at home, using a simple sprouting process involving organic broccoli sprout seeds, a few inches of filtered water, and mason jars.
The website WellnessMama has an excellent guide on how to get started sprouting at home, including information from Dr. Rhonda Patrick on how to increase the powerful sulforaphane healing compound at home using a heat-based preparation method.
Alternatively if you don’t have time to set up and tend to your sprouts, you can also add more broccoli sprouts to your diet through supplementation.
The company KOYAH makes an organic broccoli powder supplement that can be found here.
This particular product includes a blend of organic sprouts designed to support healthy immune function, weight loss, digestive function, energy production and more.
