Medical Medium: Secrets Behind Chronic and Mystery Illness and How to Finally Heal

by Anthony William

When we become well, though, doubt melts away. We have energy to devote to our true purpose. We watch ourselves transform, and we believe in the good in life again. We connect to laws of the universe, like that of renewal. The truth about the world, ourselves, life, purpose—it all comes down to healing. And the truth about healing is now in your hands.

E. coli. He gives me a direct order to go to my great-grandfather’s house and pick a box of heirloom pears from his tree. Spirit says I’m to eat nothing but these ripe pears, and I’ll heal. I do as he says and recover rapidly.

Try to eat at least three of these foods per day—the more the better—rotating your consumption so that in a given week or two, you get all of these foods into your system.

recommended a blend of celery juice and papaya, which is great for boosting someone in Michelle’s condition (e.g., low weight, not being able to eat, high number of virus cells). I followed that up with the recommendations

She understood now that poor diet, nutritional deficiencies, and increased stress had triggered the formerly dormant EBV to surface as fibromyalgia. Not knowing what was wrong with her—the powerlessness—had been scarier than

Your only hope of killing your EBV is a strong and vibrant immune system—which these medications are designed to weaken.

EPA & DHA (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid): omega-3 fats to help protect and fortify the myelin nerve sheath. Be sure to buy a plant-based (not fish-based) version. L-glutamine: amino acid that removes toxins such as MSG from the brain and protects neurons. Lion’s mane: medicinal mushroom that helps protect the myelin sheath and support neuron function. ALA (alpha lipoic acid): helps repair damaged neurons and neurotransmitters. Also helps mend the myelin nerve sheath.

Monolaurin: fatty acid that kills virus cells, bacteria cells, and other bad microbes (e.g., mold) in the brain. Curcumin: component of turmeric that reduces inflammation of the central nervous system and relieves pain. Barley grass juice extract powder: contains micronutrients that feed the central nervous system.

One reason it actually worked was that the desiccated thyroid provided people with a nutrient that they were critically lacking: iodine. Another reason it gave patients relief was that the medical establishment had accidentally discovered its first steroid compound—that is, a concentrated

Truth is, over 95 percent of today’s thyroid disorders, including Hashimoto’s, stem from a viral infection. (The other 5 percent come from radiation.) That virus is Epstein-Barr

We took out hormone-disrupting foods such as eggs and dairy, and minimized her animal protein to once daily. We also increased her consumption of antiviral fruits and vegetables, including papayas, berries, apples, mâche, mangoes, spinach, kale, sprouts, Atlantic dulse, cilantro, and garlic. For supplements, we concentrated on lemon balm, chromium, zinc, and bladderwrack. With this protocol, we were able to reduce the viral load on Sarah’s thyroid, and it returned to producing its normal

He thought fruit smoothies (with no protein powder) for breakfast, a spinach salad with orange and avocado for lunch, salmon with vegetables for dinner, and fruit for snacks in between was too much sugar and not enough protein. Within the first two weeks, though, Sarah had lost four pounds. And within the first month, a total

One other major factor is the type of food you eat. There’s a common misconception that diabetes is caused by eating a lot of foods with sugar in them. However, it’s not actually the sugar that’s the problem. It’s sugar and fat combined—mainly fat. For example, you could eat fruit all day and every day for the rest of your life and never get diabetes. (In fact, eating a lot of fruit is the most effective way to add years to your life, as I’ll explain in Chapter 20, “Fruit Fear.”) The problem is fat. Most people who consume processed foods and junk foods such as cakes, cookies, doughnuts, ice cream, and so on—or people who have a seemingly healthy main dish like chicken but follow it up with dessert—typically eat a lot of fat and a lot of sugar at the same time. While sugar that’s not attached to nutrients (e.g., that isn’t coming from fruit or vegetables) is definitely unhealthy, it’s the fat that strains your liver and pancreas. The first thing that will happen is that instant insulin

Over time, a diet high in animal fat, protein, and processed oils can burden the liver, though. Your liver can reach a vulnerable state from the constant responsibility to clean up the excess glucose in the bloodstream, and from waiting too many hours between meals to be refueled. When the liver becomes overburdened in this way, it dumps all of its glucose storage back into the bloodstream. This can prompt the birthing stage of hypoglycemia. Since your liver has to take the burden of processing the

fat you eat, a diet high in animal fat (which hides in even the lean animal protein people tend to think of as healthy) can make the organ sluggish and unable to store and release glucose the way it should. Large, heavy meals plus glucose dry spells caused by not eating in between can eventually result in type 2 diabetes. At the same time, your pancreas has to produce enzymes

Typically, they recommend a diet with little to no sugar in it, advising patients to avoid fruit altogether and focus on eating animal protein and vegetables. Heeding this advice will probably keep you diabetic forever—and not just diabetic and functional, but diabetic and ailing—since the fat in meat is only going to make your condition worse, while eating fruit is critical for healing diabetes. It’s imperative to understand that animal fats are what weakened the pancreas and liver to begin with.

Yet to address type 2 diabetes and hypoglycemia, it is critical to lower fat consumption and increase fresh fruit and vegetable consumption. I recommend the cleanse in Chapter 21 to help heal the liver, pancreas, and adrenal glands and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Your doctor may prescribe insulin. While insulin lowers your blood glucose level, it does nothing to address core problems such as damaged adrenal glands, a damaged pancreas, a dysfunctional liver, chronic negative emotions, and/or insulin resistance.

Wild blueberries, spinach, celery, papayas, sprouts, kale, raspberries, and asparagus are top foods to eat if you have type 2 diabetes or hypoglycemia. These perform functions such as detoxing the liver, strengthening glucose levels, supporting the pancreas, boosting the adrenal glands, and stabilizing insulin.

avoid certain foods as well, most specifically cheese, milk, cream, butter, eggs, processed oils, and all sugars except for raw honey and fruit.

We need to change your diet—lower your animal proteins to one serving at dinnertime, eliminate all dairy and eggs, and start bringing in natural sugars from fruit. And you need to let go of the carbohydrate fear that’s been drilled into you. Bananas, apples, dates, grapes, melons, mangoes, pears, and berries are going to make every difference in your health. You can keep some nuts and seeds in rotation, just don’t eat more than a handful once or twice daily.”

assured them both that if Morgan used the grazing technique and ate every two hours, using

food combining to balance potassium, sodium, and sugar (as I describe in Chapter 8, “Adrenal Fatigue”), she would do great. Any and all fruits and vegetables were wonderful components of those snacks and meals. Suggested healing food combos for Morgan were celery or cucumbers with dates, apples, walnuts, or seeds.

The grazing technique works because the frequent meals keep your blood sugar steady throughout the day; and as long as your glucose isn’t dropping, your adrenal glands don’t have to interfere. Giving your adrenal glands lots of rest allows them to devote energy to healing and restoring themselves. Each of your meals should ideally contain a balance of potassium, sodium, and sugar. Understand that we’re talking about natural sugars from fruit here, the type that contains critical minerals and nutrients, unlike table sugar or lactose, the sugar present in dairy. Some examples of great meals for healing your adrenals include: A date (potassium), two celery sticks (sodium), and an apple (sugar)

The best anti-Candida approach is to eat a low-fat, low-protein diet that incorporates plenty of fruits and vegetables.

Try to drink a daily minimum of 12 ounces of cucumber, cucumber-apple, or

Fresh celery juice, cilantro, hemp seeds, papayas, chili peppers, garlic, ginger, kale, cinnamon, and apples are among the top foods to eat for addressing migraines.

Then I told Erica that Spirit said she had high levels of mercury in her brain and liver, due in part to heavy metal exposure when she was a child. This wasn’t all: she was also chronically dehydrated, as well as allergic to eggs, dairy, and wheat gluten. She’d developed deficiencies

vitamin B12, zinc, selenium, and molybdenum. These were also essential cofactors to electrolyte

The ideal foods to concentrate on are wild blueberries, coconuts, papayas, red-skinned apples, pears, artichokes, bananas, sweet potatoes, spinach, asparagus, lettuce (varieties that are leafy and deep green or red), green beans, and avocados.

It doesn’t address the true underlying cause of ADHD and autism: toxic heavy metals. Specifically, ADHD and autism are born from (primarily) mercury, plus aluminum, that settles in the brain’s midline cerebral canal, which divides the left cerebral hemisphere from the right. It might occur to you that it’s hard to build up significant

to make sure you provide ample fresh fruit—preferably organic—for your child to consume. This will give your child the highest quality glucose possible. (See Chapter 20, “Fruit Fear.”) Get creative with making fruit a habit, for example, by blending frozen bananas to make a snack the consistency of ice cream.

beyond steering your child clear of traditional sweets, you ideally want to cut all wheat products and gluten from her or his diet. If possible, you want your child to avoid any foods and additives that have toxic qualities, such as corn, canola oil, MSG, and aspartame. (See Chapter 19, “What Not to Eat.”) You’ll also want to keep your child away from any

other types of poisons—especially toxic heavy metals. (See Chapter 18, “Freeing Your Brain and Body of Toxins.”) Always question everything your child is exposed to. Finally, see if you can put your child on a daily diet of the herbs, supplements, and foods that follow. In all honesty, in about 85 percent of cases, children with ADHD or

What Jonathan needed most were the true brain foods: wild blueberries and other berries, apples, dates, grapes, and any other fruit that Jonathan enjoyed. Vegetables and leafy greens such as kale were also important. For supplementation, we focused on a high dose of spirulina (mixed with coconut water for glucose and palatability) coupled with two servings of cilantro

And we have to be wary of the fat hiding in animal protein. This new diet, with its combination of antioxidant-rich fruit sugar, lowered fats, plus spirulina and cilantro to remove heavy metals, will change Jonathan’s life.” And it did. Three weeks into the protocol, Alberta left

When there isn’t enough glucose stored in the brain tissue to feed the central nervous system, emotional upheaval can create lasting effects. Contrary to popular science belief, though electrolytes do play a critical role in brain health, PTSD

does not occur from a loss of electrolytes. A lack of glucose is the real cause.

First, glucose is needed to prevent brain cells, brain tissue, and neurons from becoming saturated by the acidic and corrosive nature of the adrenaline and cortisol released

from anger, frustration, hopelessness, and fear. Second, glucose is there to stop the electrical storms in the brain that arise when trauma occurs, with electrical impulses firing off at an alarming rate, affecting brain tissue, neurons, and glial cells. Think of the brain like a car’s engine. Sweet like sugar,

In order to restore glucose to the brain—and build a glucose storage bin to prevent life disruptions from turning into PTSD—focus on incorporating the following foods into your diet: wild blueberries, melons, beets, bananas, persimmons, papayas, sweet potatoes, figs, oranges, mangoes, tangerines, apples, raw honey, and dates. Note that fruit sugar and raw honey in their unadulterated states are among the only sugars the body accepts for glucose storage in the brain.

As a result of normal modern living, over time the body will accumulate toxic heavy metals, especially mercury, aluminum, and copper. For example, tuna and other seafood often contain mercury. Most soda cans are made of aluminum. And your tap water is probably carried into your home by copper pipes, and also filled with fluoride, a toxic aluminum by-product. These metals may eventually settle into the area of the brain near the thalamus and the pineal, pituitary, and hypothalamus glands. If an acidic environment is coupled with a high-protein, fat-based diet, the metals will start oxidizing, which creates a poisonous chemical pool that contaminates brain cells and lowers electrical impulse activity. This disruption, in this particular area of the brain, can create a depressive disorder, which can sneak up on
