PAPER MULBERRY (DR.C) - QUINARY

PARASITES Research by Dr. Hulda Clark indicates that many physical maladies are related to parasites. Her research concludes that parasites probably have a "specific electrical attraction" to certain cells due to the cell's vibrational disequalibrium. (The Parasites formula address this vibrational issue.) Due to the probable parasitic die-off, we strongly suggest using DRAINAGE when using the Parasites. An added benefit is that the effectiveness of any other parasite program you may be using will be enhanced. [MORE]

PUMPKIN is symbolic of fruitfulness and good health, and in China it is called Emperor of the Garden. Pumpkin takes its name from the Greek word pepon which means ^(3)cooked in the sun.^(2) It is a plant of the gourd family, native to India, but is now naturalized and cultivated in almost every country of the world. It has heart-shaped leaves and large blossoms with yellow petals. The vine often grows to a length of ten to twenty feet, while the fruit, depending on the species, ranges in size from a few inches to 2 feet in diameter. The seeds are small, white and flat, and lie in rows within the fruit (See also: PUMPKIN SEED). Canned or fresh pumpkins are loaded with VITAMIN A and CALCIUM which proves beneficial in combating colds and other immune system disorders, aiding night vision, keeping membranes healthy and are useful in cancer prevention. The pumpkin flesh is occasionally used as a substitute for pumpkin seeds in expelling tapeworm. (See: TAPEWORM and PROSTATE CANCER entries). Pumpkins also have adequate amounts of POTASSIUM for good blood pressure, and iron for fighting off fatigue and anemia. Fresh pumpkin can be cooked down to concentrate the vitamins and minerals into a smaller quantity of food.

PUMPKIN SEED (Curcubito pepo - Kurlaru) yields valuable medicinal properties and have been used for centuries for their effectiveness in expelling tapeworms and correcting urinary disorders. Pumpkin seed is traditionally valued as a prostate cancer preventing agent. Where pumpkin seed is consumed in abundance throughout life, and where the secret of pumpkin seeds has been handed down from father to son for countless generations there is practically no incidence of prostate disorders. Pumpkin seed preserves the prostate gland, and thereby, also male potency. Even today, and not limited to non-urban regions within Bulgaria, Germany, Hungary, Turkey and Ukraine, the people eat pumpkin seed the way they eat sunflower seeds in Russia, as an inexhaustible source of natural vigor. In some of these aforementioned regions, pumpkin seeds have been known for centuries as a healing agent. The pumpkin seed has scientifically determined effects on intermediary metabolism and urination, but these latter are of secondary importance in relation to its regenerative, invigorative and vitalizing influences. There is involved herein a native plant hormone which affects our own hormone production in part by substitution, in part by direct proliferation. Anyone who has studied this influence among traditional peoples has been again and again astonished over the effect of pumpkin seed in putting off the advent of old age. Pumpkin seeds contain generous amounts of potassium, phosphorus and iron. They are also loaded with VITAMIN A, the B vitamins, and respectable amounts of CALCIUM. Pumpkin seeds are about 30% protein and about 40% fat, which is rich in unsaturated fatty acids. In cooking, PUMPKIN SEED may be used as a SALT SUBSTITUTE and enables dieters, diabetics, hypersensitives and those concerned about heart disease to otherwise season foods without adding extra calories or fat. CANNED PUMPKIN is a good source of VITAMIN A.
