The Lost Science of Autotology
The Lost Science of Autotology
In February of 1997 I was doing some lectures in the
Phoenix Arizona area and I met a Medical Doctor from Canada who was introduced to me by
one of my distributors of Vital Ion Edible Oxygen. He attended several of my
lectures and expressed an interest in my teaching him privately everything that I had
learned about my Vital Ion Edible Oxygen research on Cancer and many other
chronic disease.
I agreed to teach him privately at his request as it was a great opportunity to also
learn from him as he was 85 years old and was one of the pioneer doctors that did the
research on layatril in Mexico. Well into our session and after six hours of my
teaching him what I had learned about my products and the need for a high concentration of
Oxygen at the cell level, He exclaimed ”Oh my gosh you are a great
“AUTOTOLOGIST”.I said to him, what is an Autotologist?
And he said that I was teaching the Lost science of Autotology, which means to
teach others how to take control of their health with all natural foods, herbs and
clothing, pure water, pure clothing in the safety of their own home and that health
was automatic as long as we followed the correct science of all natural things. He
went on to say that I was the best Autotologist that he had ever heard teach this science
and that I could take the credit for resurrecting the science.
He gave me a letter concerning the science of Autotology and told me that it is still
taught in South America as well as most other countries in the world with the exception
of the US, Canada, and Europe.
I told the good Doctor that I had never heard about this science and he replied that
I was too young to know about it because it was taught in the early years of this century,
around 1914. He said that it was taught not only in the United States but Canada and most
of Europe and then the governments made it illegal to teach this science like they tried
to do with Naturopthy.
In June of 2000, I was invited to attend an International Alternative Health Convention
in the Bahamas attended by Alternative Medical doctors, Chiropractors, Naturopathic
Physicians, Nurses and many other health practioners. I was honored to be able to teach
many of the Doctors about my Oxygen Research. The Medical Doctor that got me the
invitation also put me on many conference calls from some of the Doctors that would be
attending the conference. All of the Doctors asked me what my background was and I boldly
told them that I did not have any formal degrees and that I was a self taught
Metallurgist. They all told me that in their opinion I didn’t need a formal degree as I
was light years ahead of Medical science and they would only call me Dr. Palmer.
I had the opportunity to teach many of the great doctors from all around the world of
my research with my Vital Ion Edible Oxygen thanks to one of the patients of
Dr. Smith (who invited me to the convention,) Polly H., who started passing around a
bottle of the Daytime High Energy Vital Ion Edible Oxygen at the first day opening of
the morning session. Every one was suffering from JET LAG as many traveled as far away
as China, Japan, Africa and Europe and they were having a difficult time staying awake.
Polly passed around the product as I watched to see how every one was reacting to the
results that took only a few minutes to wake them up.
I was sitting in the back of the room waiting for Craig Halley another one of Dr.
Smith’s patience’s to arrive that was using Vital Ion Edible Oxygen for his
health problems. You can read Craig Halley’s testimony about his first treatment for
his full blown Aide’s on the Testimony’s page. Polly Henderson the other patient had a
case of advanced Hepatitis C with a viral load of an excess of one million and she had
traveled to the Convention to meet me and to do her own Brain Detoxifying treatment that
she could do own herself.
At the first break in the meeting Polly and Dr. Smith came over to me with some of the
Doctors that took the Vital Ion Edible Oxygen to ask me to teach them about my
product as they all knew about the need for a Stabilized Oxygen for all disease. All they
knew about was the Hyperbaric Chamber Oxygen research and some forms of toxic Oxygen
like Hydrogen Peroxide and some of the other Oxygen products on the market.
A doctor from South Africa, Dr. Peter Colette asked me, Dr. Palmer, what is your Doctorate
in and I said Autotology. He said that he was very familiar with the science and in his
opinion it was one of the better sciences being taught. While at the 3 day convention I
met many other Doctors from China and Japan that were familiar with the
“Lost Science of Autotology” which made me feel great as I was reluctant to tell
anyone about Autotology as it was virtually unknown to all of my clients including all
of the Doctors that I met through my many lectures.
The Alternative Medical Convention that I attended in the Bahamas was one of the best
opportunities that I have had in the previous 9 years of research with my products. I was
given the VIP room at the Sheraton Hotel on the first night to do some live blood cultures
using my Dark field Microscope. The Doctors in attendance was astounded at the immediately
changes that occurred in the blood culture of Craig Halley who was terminal with full blown
aides. We adjourned to my room to do a Brain Detoxifying treatment that Craig was able to
do on his self. I only gave him the products and instructed him how to do the treatment.
Craig completed his five hour treatment at 5:00 am and he felt so good that he wanted to
take a walk on the beach. One of the gentlemen that attended convention and treatment was
not a doctor but he owned a hospital in Toronto, Canada. We went with Craig to walk on the
beach in the early morning. As we were walking on the beach, Craig started running on the
beach. He said that he felt like he was going to live and that his prayers were answered
with Vital Ion Edible Oxygen and the unique protocol of the Brain Detoxifying
program that he was able to do on his self. You can read his Testimony’s Page on this web site.

Physician, Heal Thy Self!!!
Physician, Heal Thy Self!!!
Jesus Christ is the greatest Physician in the history of mankind
And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb,
Physician, Heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum,
so also here in thy country. Luke 4:23
And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon
physicians, neither could be healed of any. Came behind him, and touched the border of his
garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched. And Jesus said, Who touched me?
When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee
and press thee, and sayest thou, who touched me?
And Jesus said somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.
And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before
him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and
how she was healed immediately.
And he said unto her, Daughter be of good cheer: thy faith hath made thee whole: go in
peace. Luke 8: 43-48.
And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years And had suffered many
things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered,
rather grew worse, Mark 5:25-26
Is there no balm in Gilead: is there no physician there ? Why then is not the health
of the daughter of my people recovered?
But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician,
but they that are sick. Math 9:12
But ye are forgers of lies,ye are all physicians of no value. Job13:

Modern Day Physicians
Modern Day Physicians
An idealized physician's perspective, such as is taught in medical school, sees the
core aspects of the process as the physician learning from the patient his symptoms,
concerns and values; in response the physician examines the patient, interprets the
symptoms, and formulates a diagnosis to explain the symptoms and their cause to the
patient and to propose a treatment. In more detail, the patient presents a set of
complaints or concerns about his health to the doctor, who then obtains further
information about the patient's symptoms, previous state of health, living conditions,
and so forth, and then formulates a diagnosis and enlists the patient's agreement to a
treatment plan. Importantly, during this process the doctor educates the patient about
the causes, progression, outcomes, and possible treatments of his ailments, as well as
often providing advice for maintaining health.
This teaching relationship is the basis of calling the physician
doctor, which
originally meant "teacher" in Latin. The patient-doctor relationship is additionally
complicated by the patient's suffering (patient comes from the Latin patiens,
"suffering") and limited ability to relieve it on his own. The doctor's expertise
comes from his knowledge about, or experience with, other people who have suffered
similar symptoms and his presumed ability to relieve it with medicines or other
therapies about which the patient may initially have little knowledge.
The quality of the patient-doctor relationship is important to both parties. The
better the relationship in terms of mutual respect, knowledge, trust, shared values
and perspectives about disease and life, and time available, the better will be the
amount and quality of information about the patient's disease transferred in both
directions, enhancing accuracy of diagnosis and increasing the patient's knowledge
about the disease.
The physical examination
is the examination of the patient looking for signs of disease. The doctor uses his
senses of sight, hearing, touch, and sometimes smell (taste has been replaced by
modern lab tests). Four chief methods are used: inspection, palpation, percussion,
and auscultation; smelling may be useful (e.g. infection,
uremia,
diabetic ketoacidosis).
- Vital signs include height, weight, body temperature, blood pressure,
pulse,
respiration rate, hemoglobin oxygen saturation
- General appearance of the patient
- Skin
- Head, eye, ear, nose, and throat (HEENT)
- Cardiovascular - heart and blood vessels
- Respiratory - lungs
- Abdomen and rectosigmoid
- Genitalia
- Spine and extremities - musculoskeletal
- Neuropsychiatric

Hypocrates, Physician
|
- Born: c. 460 BC
- Birthplace: Island of Cos, Greece
- Died: 377 B.C.
- Best Known As: Author of the Hippocratic Oath
Hippocrates of Cos (c. 460 BC–380 BC) was an ancient Greek physician, commonly regarded as one
of the most outstanding figures in medicine of all time; he has been called "the father of medicine." He was a
physician from the so-called medical school of Kos,
and may have been a pupil of Herodicus. Writings
attributed to him (Corpus hippocraticum, or "Hippocratic
writings") rejected the superstition and magic
of primitive "medicine" and laid the foundations of medicine as a
branch of science.
The
Hippocratic writings introduced patient confidentiality, which is still in use
today. This was described under the Hippocratic Oath and other treatises. Hippocrates
recommended that physicians record their findings and their medicinal methods,
so that these records may be passed down and employed by other physicians.
Other
Hippocratic writings associated personality traits with the relative abundance of
the four humours in the body: phlegm, yellow bile, black bile, and blood,
and was a major influence on Galen and later on medieval medicine.
The Hippocratic Corpus
is a collection of about sixty treatises, most written between 430 BC and AD 200. They are actually a group of texts
written by several different people holding several different viewpoints
erroneously grouped under the name of Hippocrates, perhaps at the Library of Alexandria.
None of the texts included in the Corpus can be considered to have been written
by Hippocrates himself, and one of them at least was written by his son-in-law
Polybus. The best known of the Hippocratic writings is the Hippocratic Oath; however, this text was most
likely not written by Hippocrates himself. A famous, time-honoured medical rule
ascribed to Hippocrates is Primum non nocere ("first, do no
harm"); another one is Ars longa, vita brevis
("art is long, and life short

The oath which all medical doctors take
upon graduation from medical school, during commencement, on the duties,
obligations, and ethics of those who practice medicine. The oath is attributed

Hippocratic Oath, plus other historical information about Hippocrates and his
works, can be found at: http://jcbmac.chem.brown.edu/ baird/ Chem22I/ humanrights/ HippocraticOath.html.

Hippocratic Oath -- Classical Version
|
I swear by Apollo Physician and Asclepius and Hygieia and Panaceia and all the
gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will full fill according
to my ability and judgment this oath and this covenant:
To hold him who has taught me this art as equal to my parents and to live my
life in partnership with him, and if he is in need of money to give him a share
of mine, and to regard his offspring as equal to my brothers in male lineage
and to teach them this art - if they desire to learn it - without fee and
covenant; to give a share of precepts and oral instruction and all the other
learning to my sons and to the sons of him who has instructed me and to pupils
who have signed the covenant and have taken an oath according to the medical
law, but no one else.
I will apply dietetic measures for the benefit of the sick according to my
ability and judgment; I will keep them from harm and injustice.
I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody who asked for it, nor will I make
a suggestion to this effect. Similarly I will not give to a woman an abortive
remedy. In purity and holiness I will guard my life and my art.
I will not use the knife, not even on sufferers from stone, but will withdraw
in favor of such men as are engaged in this work.
Whatever houses I may visit, I will come for the benefit of the sick, remaining
free of all intentional injustice, of all mischief and in particular of sexual
relations with both female and male persons, be they free or slaves.
What I may see or hear in the course of the treatment or even outside of the
treatment in regard to the life of men, which on no account one must spread
abroad, I will keep to myself, holding such things shameful to be spoken about.
If I full fill this oath and do not violate it, may it be granted to me to
enjoy life and art, being honored with fame among all men for all time to come;
if I transgress it and swear falsely, may the opposite of all this be my lot.
|
Hippocratic Oath -- Modern Version
I swear to fulfill, to the best of my ability and judgment, this covenant:
I will respect the hard-won scientific gains of those physicians in whose steps
I walk, and gladly share such knowledge as is mine with those who are to
follow.
I will apply, for the benefit of the sick, all measures which are required,
avoiding those twin traps of over treatment and therapeutic nihilism.
I will remember that there is art to medicine as well as science, and that
warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon's knife or the
chemist's drug.
I will not be ashamed to say "I know not," nor will I fail to call in
my colleagues when the skills of another are needed for a patient's recovery.
I will respect the privacy of my patients, for their problems are not disclosed
to me that the world may know. Most especially must I tread with care in
matters of life and death. If it is given me to save a life, all thanks. But it
may also be within my power to take a life; this awesome responsibility must be
faced with great humbleness and awareness of my own frailty. Above all, I must
not play at God.
I will remember that I do not treat a fever chart, a cancerous growth, but a
sick human being, whose illness may affect the person's family and economic
stability. My responsibility includes these related problems, if I am to care
adequately for the sick.
I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure.
I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to
all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind and body as well as the infirm.
If I do not violate this oath, may I enjoy life and art, respected while I live
and remembered with affection thereafter. May I always act so as to preserve
the finest traditions of my calling and may I long experience the joy of
healing those who seek my help.

The Hippocratic Oath Today: Meaningless Relic or Invaluable Moral Guide?
|
The Hippocratic Oath (see ancient and modern versions) is one of the oldest binding
documents in history. Written in antiquity, its principles are held sacred by
doctors to this day: treat the sick to the best of one's ability, preserve
patient privacy, and teach the secrets of medicine to the next generation, and
so on. "The Oath of Hippocrates," holds the American Medical
Association's Code of Medical Ethics (1996 edition), "has remained
in Western civilization as an expression of ideal conduct for the
physician." Today, most graduating medical-school students swear to some
form of the oath, usually a modernized version. Indeed, oath-taking in recent
decades has risen to near uniformity, with just 24 percent of U.S.
medical schools administering the oath in 1928 to nearly 100 percent today.
Yet paradoxically, even as the modern oath's use has burgeoned, its content has
tacked away from the classical oath's basic tenets. According to a 1993 survey
of 150 U.S. and Canadian medical schools, for example, only 14 percent of
modern oaths prohibit euthanasia, 11 percent hold covenant with a deity, 8
percent foreswear abortion, and a mere 3 percent forbid sexual contact with
patients -- all maxims held sacred in the classical version. The original calls
for free tuition for medical students and for doctors never to "use the
knife" (that is, conduct surgical procedures) -- both obviously out of step
with modern-day practice. Perhaps most telling, while the classical oath calls
for "the opposite" of pleasure and fame for those who transgress the
oath, fewer than half of oaths taken today insist the taker be held accountable
for keeping the pledge.
Indeed, a growing number of physicians have come to feel that the Hippocratic
Oath is inadequate to address the realities of a medical world that has
witnessed huge scientific, economic, political, and social changes, a world of
legalized abortion, physician-assisted suicide, and pestilences unheard of in
Hippocrates' time. Some doctors have begun asking pointed questions regarding
the oath's relevance: In an environment of increasing medical specialization,
should physicians of such different stripes swear to a single oath? With
governments and health-care organizations demanding patient information as
never before, how can a doctor maintain a patient's privacy? Are physicians
morally obligated to treat patients with such lethal new diseases as AIDS or
the Ebola virus?
Other physicians are taking broader aim. Some claim that the
principles enshrined in the oath never constituted a shared core of moral
values, that the oath's pagan origins and moral cast make it antithetical to beliefs
held by Christians, Jews, and Muslims. Others note that the classical Oath
makes no mention of such contemporary issues as the ethics of experimentation,
team care, or a doctor's societal or legal responsibilities. (Most modern
oaths, in fact, are penalty-free, with no threat to potential transgressors of
loss of practice or even of face.)
With all this in mind, some doctors see oath-taking as little more than a
pro-forma ritual with little value beyond that of upholding tradition.
"The original oath is redolent of a covenant, a solemn and binding
treaty," writes Dr. David Graham in JAMA, the Journal of the
American Medical Association (12/13/00). "By contrast, many
modern oaths have a bland, generalized air of 'best wishes' about them, being
near-meaningless formalities devoid of any influence on how medicine is truly
practiced." Some physicians claim what they call the "Hippocratic
Oath" should be radically modified or abandoned altogether.
What is your opinion? What do you feel is the Hippocratic Oath's relevance in
2005? Is it a pointless anachronism or an invaluable moral guide? Should
aspiring doctor’s oath? If you're a doctor, would you take the oath again? Why?

Non Doctors Response To Hypocratic Oath
Non Doctors Response To Hypocratic Oath
Having worked in the lower levels of health care, I've worked under numerous doctors
and nurses. The implication of the Hippocratic Oath is that there is little variation
among health-care professionals. I think it would be more useful if consumers were
informed of the capabilities of the doctors and others, including chiropractors and
hospitals that they have to rely on. Of these others no oath is required, and yet
they are often as much or more involved in a patient's care and treatment. Without
the oath, there would be little difference in the responsibility that would fall on
each of these caregivers.
Another point is the worsening of health care availability, especially for those
of us who can no longer afford it. A few decades ago it cost only a few dollars a
month and included anything from a doctor's visit to an involved surgery. Now it
is a hundred times more expensive just to get in the door. This makes a joke of the
Oath's ideal of treatment without regard for the bill at the end.

Opinions Of Western Medicine
Opinions Of Western Medicine
I must admit I had never read either the classical or the modern version of the Hippocratic Oath. I had always assumed there was only one, and I falsely thought all doctors had to take it. I think it's clear that the classical version is completely out of touch with reality, and I wonder if it was ever taken seriously even back in Hippocrates' era. The modern version tries to help put a little more reality into the oath and adds a moral element and a more humanistic approach to the document. It tries to deliver a physician we all can respect. I think it comes down to respect -- on both sides of the table.
Far too many of today's doctors have little or no respect for the importance of the patient-to-physician relationship. Instead of promoting this most critical part of health care, doctors are taught by their lawyers' insurance companies, and their own peers to turn a deaf ear to their patients and believe only test results. Relationships take time, and time is the enemy. In this environment, listening and observing become counterproductive.
We as patients tolerate physicians who do not care, prescribe inappropriate tests and medicines, and act in a condescending manner. We have little respect for them but we feel powerless.
I think if all doctors had to recite this (modern version) Oath, display it on the office wall and retake it every few years, it would go a long way toward rebuilding some of the lost respect.

I believe the original, ancient oath contained valuable moral and ethical constraints and imperatives that are essential for those serving fellow men (and women). A covenant philosophy is still needed to ensure unbiased and ethical behavior in those who command the great respect and responsibility that physicians have in our society. Furthermore, accountability and consequences for breaking the societal covenant should be reinstituted and monitored by physicians and non physicians alike. Perhaps this is idealistic; however, patients need this assurance for their confidence and reliance on physicians to be sustained untainted by fear and distrust. If these are lost, individual and public health will suffer -- perhaps with catastrophic results.

Today's modern medical technology produces smarter, knowledgeable doctors -- and that's it. I don't think it transformed them into healers; they're just there to introduce at bedside the cure. Most of today's doctors are there just for the big bucks. I think the true healers are the caregivers with true and compassionate tasks as health-care workers.

With regard to "doing no harm," perhaps the profession should take a look at its own practice of harming graduating students by imposing working hours of internship and residencies that severely damage the new doctor's physical, mental, social, spiritual, and in some cases marital health. Shame!

Look at cancer for example. Spending an ungodly amount trying to find the cure, but we neglect the causes. We are still destroying the Ozone, Polluting the air, poisoning our food and drinking water, increasing stress in our daily lives while decreasing relaxation and creative expression. I can't say for a fact that’s what causes cancer but I feel in my heart that those things play a major role in it.
I'm a certified massage therapist. When the body is touched it lights up, like a light bulb being plugged into a socket. There are huge healing benefits with massage.

One of the major problems with "Western Medicine" is that it looks at treating the symptom rather than the cause.
I am a perfect example of that. I work with computers. My wrist's started hurting often. I went to two docs. Both said I was developing carpal tunnel and gave me a wrist brace and anti inflammatory.
Things got worse with my wrists in the next few weeks. I went back. The next steps were cortisone shots, which is basically just for pain, like hitting your head against the wall until you get a headache, then taking an aspirin and continuing to hit your head (both doctors used this analogy,. And after that my option was surgery.
SO . . . I did my own research. A quick look on amazon.com, google.com, and a trip to my local bookstore and less than 24 hours later I had a book on RSI for computer users (Repetitive Strain Injury).
Basically I was right in that diagnosis. My muscles in my back have extreme tight spots from poor posture and ergonomics for so many years. These knots in my muscles pinch nerves that originate in my spine and go all the way to my hands.
Thus the pinching of the nerve causes the pain in the wrist, called pain deferral.
So when I go to the doctor they immediately mis diagnose me -- thinking that I have problems in my wrist since that’s where the pain is.
That’s just one example. You find this reactive, treat the symptom not the cause philosophy in an array of other health issues.
We need to look at the body as a whole, rather than as segmented, fragmented, separate pieces.

At least some of the increase in some diseases would (quite ironically) be due to the advances in medicine (and public sanitation) in modern times.
When people used to die in their 40s, diseases of "old age" weren't all that common. Same for diseases with long latency periods, like heart disease and many cancers. Now that people aren't dying young from simple infections and such, they live long enough for other diseases to appear.

If they claim that they are healing then why is there more disease now than ever before? Tell the believers in the modern medicine mix up to renounce this phony bologna and take on the healing of the natural world.

There are more diseases than ever because we're getting better at finding them. In the same way hundreds of species of mammal haven’t randomly evolved in the past 2 hundred years, we went out and explored the world and found them. Secondly, and more specifically to humans, there are evolved diseases (MRSA being the most famous/infamous) that have come around as hybrids due to human activity. Bacteria also change faster than more complex species, though I guess that would make little difference as old ones probably die out at the same rate.

The comments stated above are solely of the people that chose to remain anonymous. I do not believe in tearing down the good and honorable doctors that sacrificed a long time in college to become doctors. I believe that there are many dedicated health care practitioners of many different fields of medicine that deserve our respect. I do concur with some of the statements made by some in the above personal opinions.

The History Of Medicine
The History Of Medicine
There are traditions and schools of healing which are usually not
considered to be part of (Western) medicine in a strict sense). The most highly
developed systems of medicine outside of the Western or Hippocratic tradition are
the Ayurvedic school (of India) and traditional Chinese medicine, Chiropractic Medicine, Homeopathic Medicine, Naturopathic
Medicine & The
lost Science of Autototology.,
Jesus Christ being the greatest Physician was also the original Autotologist
who taught his followers how to take control of their own health with all
natural foods, herbs, pure water and the importance of cleansing the body.
The remainder of this article focuses on modern (Western) medicine.
Until the early decades of the twentieth
century, methods of treating disease were rooted in local customs and beliefs,
not in a professional or scientific consensus. The medicine practiced in one
area or by one group was often quite different from medicine elsewhere.
In rural America,
laypeople combined local folk custom with information gleaned from medical
dictionaries and popular texts to treat injuries and illnesses. Similarly,
doctors, not yet an elite professional group, were usually trained through a
combination of schooling and apprenticeship. A large number of medical schools
were business institutions organized for the profit of local practitioners.
Students, often from lower-middle- or working-class backgrounds, paid to attend
lectures of dubious worth. Formal medical education, largely unregulated, could
vary in length, content, and structure, and after 1847, when the American
Medical Association (ama) was
formed; its lack of standardization was much criticized.
Few during the nineteenth century agreed
on what constituted appropriate practice. Furthermore, most doctors and
educated people were skeptical of those who sought to unify medicine under any
one therapeutic umbrella. Calls for uniformity were perceived as little more
than a political ploy to gain a measure of legitimacy for a particular medical
interest group. Throughout much of the century, the disparate demands of
different groups created a diverse body of therapeutic knowledge and practice.
Accordingly, training differed for rural doctors, urban doctors, homeopaths,
allopaths, eclectics, Thomsonians, and a host of others. Those treating
different classes and ethnic groups were forced by the realities of the medical
marketplace to adjust their practice.
Each group of practitioners identified
with a particular "school" or "sect" of medicine. Rural
doctors depended mostly on herbal treatments. Thomsonians and later the
eclectics were among the botanical schools that developed throughout rural New
England, the South, and the Midwest; these groups incorporated local folk
customs into their therapeutics. In cities regular practitioners, homeopaths,
and many others competed with one another for patients. Thus, unlike today,
when patients have little control over the types of therapies used, patients in
nineteenth-century America
could choose among a wide variety of therapies.
Doctors, by and large, were
"family" or "community" practitioners engaged in general
medicine; only a small number specialized in surgery, ophthalmology, or other
areas. Family doctors, the bulk of the profession, lived in the communities
where they practiced, making house calls or treating patients in offices
located in their homes. Often they and their patients were members of the same
church or club. The family doctor would preside at the significant events in
people's lives, tending to births as well as deaths. He saw it as his role to
comfort the family, and it was not unusual for him to move into a patient's
house for the duration of an illness.
This relationship between doctors and
patients was not necessarily a product of a deep-seated belief in democracy or
in the importance of trust and understanding in the therapeutic process.
Rather, it was an outgrowth of the professional environment. These doctors were
working in an era of great uncertainty concerning medical procedures and
outcomes, and they were in severe competition with one another for clients. A
large number of medical schools combined with loose licensure requirements
produced an oversupply of practitioners. Without the options of research
positions in universities, hospitals, or institutes, and without specialized
forms of practice, doctors depended on the goodwill of their patients for their
economic survival. Competition for patients was fierce by the end of the
century, and familiarity, a pleasant demeanor, courteousness, and understanding
were essential qualities for the successful doctor.
Because medical knowledge was sketchy and
doctors depended on their patients for a living, they tended to practice in
familiar ways that were accepted by their patients. This does not mean that
they did not believe in their treatments, but that in many ways their knowledge
was not much more sophisticated than that of their patients. Most doctors
employed bleeding, cupping, purging, and other seemingly draconian measures to
treat their patients. Because illness was often equated with moral failings,
what we see as cruelty was viewed then as an appropriate consequence of
transgressions.
Those who rejected regular therapeutics
could turn to other, milder forms of practice. Appealing to merchants and other
urban groups, homeopathy provided milder therapies and perhaps more elegant
rationales. What might have been lacking in scientific rigor was made up for by
the intimacy of practice itself. The authority of the practitioner rested as
much on his social relationship to his patient as it did upon scientific fact.
Around the turn of the century a
significant movement arose devoted to reforming medical education. By
standardizing the training of physicians and controlling entry into the
profession through licensure, reformers hoped to make medical practice itself
more uniform. The movement culminated in the now-classic Carnegie Bulletin
Number Four, or the "Flexner Report," which called for the
reorganization of medical school curricula.
The report, named for its author, Abraham
Flexner, illustrates some of the divisions within the medical community during
these years and the centrality of arguments regarding standardization to those
who sought to influence the health system. First, it called for the
establishment of a common medical education built around laboratory science and
two years of clinical experience as well as lectures. Second, it asserted that
the guiding principles of professional behavior should be determined by the
"science" of medical practice rather than the "art" of
individual attention. Like the busy machine shops and industrial factories that
were proving so successful in turning the country into an industrial power,
medicine would be turned into a technically exact scientific enterprise.
Finally, it called for the exclusion of women, blacks, and the poor from
practice.
The Flexner Report, the product of a long,
rancorous struggle among educators on the ama's
Council on Medical Education, achieved only some of its aims. Medical practice
would remain a field filled with uncertainties and non standardized procedures,
but the standardization of the social background of doctors would be realized.
By the end of the nineteenth century, the eclectic nature of medical practice
and the unregulated environment in which it had developed had created a large,
diverse set of educational institutions that catered to women, black, and
poorer students. In fact, there were sixteen women's medical schools by 1900
and ten black medical colleges, primarily in the southern states, by the same
year. Also, the majority of students attending the various medical colleges
were lower or lower middle class. But, by 1916, only two female women's
colleges and two black schools remained in existence, and many of the
proprietary institutions that had catered to part-time and working students had
closed.
Reformers saw little need to protect these
poorly endowed institutions in part because they believed that the future of
scientific medicine would make social diversity within its ranks unimportant.
If the physician of the future was to be a scientist treating patients
regardless of social class or race, then there was little need to protect
certain groups in medicine; doctors were to treat organs rather than people. In
Flexner's model, white upper-middle-class male physicians would add to the
social status of the profession without sacrificing the quality of care.
Flexner's discussion of the future of the "Poor Boy,"
"Women," and "Negros" in medicine showed a simplistic, naive
belief in the ability of medical science to resolve the issues of equity and
equality that became the central concerns of health planners in the 1960s and
1970s.
Although the effect of the reform movement
had profound implications for the social characteristics of American physicians,
it had less of an impact on their practices. By and large, doctors were still
tied to their private offices and were very defensive about
"interference" from those seeking to standardize or evaluate their
treatments. With no central organization capable of oversight, doctors adopted
the mantle of science and the aura of scientists while maintaining their
autonomy over treatment and procedure.
In recent years, however, the medical
profession has faced a series of crises that have undermined its autonomy and
undercut its authority. The staggering increase in the costs of basic health
services and the growing skepticism of Americans with regard to professional
dominance have produced a variety of movements to find alternatives to
traditional forms of care. The 1960s saw a critique of medicine that emphasized
the maldistribution of physicians, their extraordinary incomes, and the
elitist, conservative nature of the ama.
Further, the dearth of hospital and physicians' services for the nation's poor
added an obvious political dimension to the arguments over the medical
profession.
These critiques spurred broad efforts to
reform the health system. First, the long-standing struggle to enact a national
health insurance plan culminated in the 1965 passage of Medicaid for the poor
and disabled and Medicare for the elderly. Second, the argument that there were
too few physicians provided a rationale for rapidly expanding the number of
medical schools. Third, the argument that existing services were badly
distributed and unable to address the pressing needs of the nation's poor led
the Office of Economic Opportunity (oeo)
within the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare to organize innovative
programs to provide services to the urban poor. The oeo, for example, funded such efforts as the Urban Corps,
which awarded scholarships to medical students in return for a commitment to
serve poor communities and neighborhood health centers.
Another criticism during the 1960s and
1970s grew out of the women's movement. Critics attacked the male dominance of
the profession and pressed for greater participation of women. As a result, the
numbers of women entering the medical profession increased dramatically.
All these complaints reflected a growing
sense that medicine had become far too removed from the population it served
and that the sensitivity of medical practice to patient needs had been
sacrificed on the altar of science and technology. By the late 1960s, some had
begun to question the efficacy of medicine itself; critics contended that
despite its increased costliness, it had done little or nothing to improve the
overall health of the nation. Some even argued that medicine could be
harmful--that it could cause iatrogenic (physician-caused) diseases. By the
1980s, the negative perceptions of medicine and its practitioners had had a
strong impact: malpractice lawsuits skyrocketed in number and more restrictions
were placed on educational subsidies for specialist training and undergraduate
medical education.
Moreover, in the 1980s,
lawyers, courts, ethicists, and philosophers began to explore questions that
had previously been the preserve of the medical community alone. When should
medical procedures be used to terminate pregnancies? Should physicians be
allowed to use technology indefinitely to prolong life? Who should provide care
and what type of care should be provided for the terminally ill? Only twenty
years before, the general critique of medicine had argued that there were too
few physicians and that more services were needed. The assumption was that
medicine was a universal good that should be readily available to everyone. But
the deep questioning of the efficacy of medicine and of the system had led to
profound ethical and political debates that are still being argued.

Alternative Medical Sciences
Alternative Medical Sciences
There are traditions and schools of
healing which are usually not considered to be part of (Western) medicine in a strict
sense). The most highly developed systems of medicine outside of the Western or
Hippocratic tradition are
the Ayurvedic school (of India) and traditional Chinese medicine,
Chiropractic Medicine, Homeopathic Medicine,& Naturopathic Medicine.
There are many other Alternative Medical Science’s not mentioned on this page
as it would require a lot of time and energy to provide and research online.
Listed below are but a few.

Homeophy
With its long history of safe use,
homeopathic medicines stand at the forefront of the complementary and
alternative medicines which Americans are increasingly seeking."
The basic principles of homeopathy were formulated
by a German physician and pharmacist, Samuel Hahnemann, in the late 1700's. By
the 1920's, the use of homeopathic medicine by concerned physicians was
widespread. Today, licensed pharmacists in their '70s recall the steps used to
prepare homeopathic medicines to fill prescriptions from respected physicians.
The Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of
1938 recognized homeopathy as a standard method of health care. Homeopathic
medicines were considered drugs and classified as either prescription or
non-prescription (over-the-counter), depending on the strength of their
formulation.
It has been suggested that the practice of
homeopathy declined, in part because of incredible rise of the pharmaceutical
industry after the Second World War and the economics associated with patent
protected chemical or genetic-based drugs.
It has also been suggested that the
decline of homeopathy was linked in part to an "image" problem.
Physicians worried that the use of the pre-penicillin age medicine would brand
them as being "old fashioned."
This trend began to reverse during the
1980s as consumers questioned whether treatments now considered
"conventional" medicine, were truly delivering "wellness."
By 1996 a Norwegian study showed that attitudes by younger (and now often female)
doctors had changed dramatically. Of 1,434 doctors responding to a survey 7%
said they would welcome collaboration with a homeopath and another 31% reported
that they would respond positively to a patient who wished to try homeopathy.
Principles
Homeopathy rests on three principles:
- The Law of Simi liars which
states that a disease should be treated by a medicine producing symptoms
in a healthy person similar to those the patient is experiencing.
- The use of a single medicine to
treat all symptoms
the patient is expressing -- mental, emotional, and physical.
- The use of a minimum dose.
The homeopath first prescribes a small number of doses of the selected
medicine. Then, after observation of the effects, a regimen of even smaller
dosages is established.
The interview between homeopath and
patient is of great importance. Successful treatment depends upon the
homeopath's ability to diagnose the un-wellness from which all other symptoms
arise. It is this source un-wellness which is then addressed through a
homeopathic regimen.
Is
There Proof That Homeopathy Works?
Enthusiasts claim for homeopathy a two
hundred year track record of curing illness. They cite the widespread public
attention homeopathy received through its presumed effectiveness during
epidemics of cholera in the 19th century.
During the great influenza epidemic of the
1920's, homeopathic hospitals, it is said, reported low death rates, while
hospitals employing conventional medicine reported death rates of 20% to 30%.
Since the late '40's, double blind trials
testing homeopathy on various medical conditions have led to mixed results.
Some are claimed to support the use of homeopathy. In other cases, this method
of evaluation proved itself incapable of documenting the success of homeopathic
cures.
In a report published in the September 20, 1997
issue of Lancet, Dr. Wayne Jonas, head of the Office of Alternative
medicine, and Dr. Klaus Linde, concluded that, when the evidence of the 89
studies of homeopathy judged to be of good quality was pooled, homeopathy was
deemed to be 2.45 times more
effective than placebo.
In 1996, an unpublished study from the Homeopathic
Medicine Research Group, an organization formed by the European Union to
determine the effectiveness of homeopathy, concluded that homeopathy was more effective than a placebo... and
the probability was only 0.027% that this result might be due to chance!
Remarkably, a group skeptical toward
homeopathy had assisted in the study's design.
In the February 9, 1991
issue of the British Medical Journal, an analysis by two Dutch
researchers asked to assess the efficacy of various forms of alternative
medicine, reported that although initially they had been skeptics as to
homeopathy and alternative medicine in general, "The amount of positive results came as a surprise to us... The
evidence presented in this review would probably be sufficient for establishing
homeopathy as a regular treatment for certain indications."
Today, as we learn more and become more
sensitive to the relationships between all living things, homeopathy has
rightfully attracted the interest of a great many intelligent, inquisitive and
perceptive minds within both the lay and the medical community.

naturopathy
Naturopathy is a system of therapy and treatment which relies exclusively on natural remedies, such as sunlight, air, water, supplemented with diet and therapies
such as massage. However, some naturopaths
have been known to prescribe such unnatural treatments as colon hydrotherapy
for such diseases as asthma and arthritis.
Naturopathy is based on the belief that
the body is self-healing. The body will repair itself and recover from illness
spontaneously if it is in a healthy environment. Naturopaths have many remedies
and recommendations for creating a healthy environment so the body can
spontaneously heal itself.
Naturopaths claim to be holistic,
which means they believe that the natural body is joined to a supernatural soul and a non-physical mind and the three must be treated as a
unit, whatever that means. Naturopathy is fond of such terms as
"balance" and "harmony" and "energy." It is often
rooted in mysticism and a metaphysical belief in vitalism (Barrett).
Naturopaths are also prone to make
grandiose claims about some herb or remedy that can enhance the immune system.
Yet, only medical doctors are competent to do the tests necessary to determine
if an individual's immune system is in any way depressed (Green).
Naturopaths assume that many diseases, including cancer, are caused by faulty
immune systems. (The immune system,
in simple terms, is the bodies own set of mechanisms that attacks anything that
isn't "self." Although, in some cases rather than attack
"foreign bodies" such as viruses, fungi, or bacteria, the immune response
goes haywire and the body attacks it own cells, e.g., in lupus, multiple sclerosis,
and rheumatoid
arthritis.) Naturopaths also promote the idea that the mind
can be used to enhance the immune system and thereby improve one's health.
However Dr. Saul Green argues that
There are no reports in the scientific
literature to support the contention that any AM [alternative medicine]
operates through an established immunological mechanism. Regardless of the
means used to evoke an anti-tumor response, all the evidence available from
clinical and animal studies clearly shows that only after the attention of the NIS
[normal immune system] has been attracted by some external manipulation of its
components, is there any recognition by NIS
of the existence of the tumor (Stutman, O. and Cuttito MJ. (1980). In: R.B.
Herberman (Ed). Natural Cell Medicated Immunity against Tumors. N.Y.
Academic Press: 431-432.). All the evidence amassed over the past 30 years
provides a clear answer to the question, “Does any AM treatment stimulate the NIS
and cause it to identify and destroy new cancer cells when they appear?” The
answer clearly is NO! (Green 1999: 20)
Furthermore, the evidence that such
diseases as cancer occur mainly in people with compromised immune systems is
lacking. This is an assumption made by many naturopaths but it is not supported
by the scientific evidence. Immunologists have shown that the most common
cancers flourish in hosts with fully functional and competent immune systems (Green 1999: 18).
The notion that vitamins and colloidal minerals,
herbs, coffee enemas, colonic irrigation, Laetrile, meditation, etc., can
enhance the immune system and thereby help restore health is bogus. On the one
hand, it is not necessarily the case that a diseased person even has a
compromised immune system. On the other hand, there is no scientific evidence
that any of these remedies either enhance the immune system or make it possible
for the body to heal itself.
Naturopathy is often, if not always,
practiced in combination with other forms of "alternative" health practices. Bastyr University, a leading school of
naturopathy since 1978, offers instruction in such things as acupuncture and "spirituality."
Much of the advice of naturopaths is sound: exercise, quit smoking, eat lots of
fresh fruits and vegetables, practice good nutrition. Claims that these and
practices such as colonic irrigation or coffee enemas "detoxify" the
body or enhance the immune system or promote "homeostasis,"
"harmony," "balance," & "vitality".

Ayurvedic medicine
If
you can wiggle your toes with the mere flicker of an intention, why can't you
reset your biological clock?
If
you could live in the moment you would see the flavor of eternity and when you
metabolize the experience of eternity your body doesn't age.
Ayurveda
is the science of life and it has a very basic, simple kind of approach, which
is that we are part of the universe and the universe is intelligent and the
human body is part of the cosmic body, and the human mind is part of the cosmic
mind, and the atom and the universe are exactly the same thing but with
different form, and the more we are in touch with this deeper reality, from
where everything comes, the more we will be able to heal ourselves and at the
same time heal our planet. --Deepak Chopra
Ayurvedic medicine is an
"alternative" medical practice that claims it is the traditional
medicine of India.
Ayurveda is based on two Sanskrit terms: ayu meaning life and veda
meaning knowledge or science. Since the practice is said to be some 5,000
years old, what it considers to be knowledge or science may not coincide with
the most updated information available to Western medicine. In any case, most
of the ancient treatments are not recorded and what is called traditional
Indian medicine is, for the most part, something developed in the 1980s by the
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (Barrett)
who brought Transcendental Meditation
to the western world. The St. Paul
of this movement is Deepak Chopra,
who has done more than anyone else to spread the good word about the wonders of
Ayurveda.
Ayurvedic treatments are primarily dietary
and herbal. Patients are classified by body types, or prakriti, which
are determined by proportions of the three doshas. The doshas allegedly
regulate mind-body harmony. Illness and disease are considered to be a matter
of imbalance in the doshas. Treatment is aimed at restoring harmony or
balance to the mind-body system. Vata, composed
of air and space, allegedly governs all movement in the mind and body and must
be kept in good balance. Too much vata leads to "worries, insomnia, cramps
and constipation....Vata controls blood flow, elimination of wastes,
breathing and the movement of thoughts across the mind." Vata also
controls the other two principles, Pitta and Kapha. Pitta is
said to be composed of fire and water; it allegedly governs "all heat,
metabolism and transformation in the mind and body. It controls how we digest
food, how we metabolize our sensory perceptions, and how we discriminate
between right and wrong." Pitta must be kept in balance, too.
"Too much [Pitta] can lead to anger, criticism, ulcers, rashes and
thinning hair." Kapha
consists of earth and water. "Kapha cements the elements in the body,
providing the material for physical structure. This dosha maintains body
resistance....Kapha lubricates the joints; provides moisture to the skin; helps
to heal wounds; fills the spaces in the body; gives biological strength, vigor
and stability; supports memory retention; gives energy to the heart and lungs
and maintains immunity...Kapha is responsible for emotions of attachment, greed
and long-standing envy; it is also expressed in tendencies toward calmness,
forgiveness and love." Too much Kapha leads to lethargy and weight
gain, as well as congestion and allergies.
On the basis of the above metaphysical
physiology, Ayurveda
recommends such things as: to pacify Kapha eat spicy foods and avoid sweet
foods, except for honey but don't heat the honey. Avoid tomatoes and nuts. Turkey is fine but avoid rabbit and pheasant.
If you've got too much Pitta then try this: eat
sweet foods and avoid the spicy. Eat nuts. To reduce Vata: eat sweet, sour and
salty foods; avoid spicy foods. Nuts are good and so are dairy products.
Meditation is also a significant therapy
in Ayurveda. Except for the benefits of relaxation and meditation, there is no
scientific evidence to support any of the many astounding claims made on behalf
of Ayurvedic medicine. Even the claims made for the significant health
benefits of Transcendental Meditation have been greatly exaggerated and
distorted (Wheeler

The Science of Herbal Medicine
Herbs are "Magic". They
have been the primary source of medicines for people of every culture and were
considered magical or spiritual by many of them. An ancient earth
based spiritual belief system concerning herbs appears in many ancient cultures
and civilizations such as Celtic, Chinese, India, and Native American
philosophies just to name a few. Their religious beliefs shaped their
view and relationship with the Great Spirit, and the relationships between
their citizens. This was a belief system which also demonstrated a
holistic view of illness, and utilized herbs according to religious belief.
You could say that an earth centered-nature religion still permeates herbalism
today. We believe that herbalism is part of the RELIGION of NATURE,
representing a balance of mind, body and spirit and relies on an
intuition as well as science.
Pagans work with Nature, respecting and worshipping the spiritual forces they observe.
Nature is perceived as the domain of the gods and of spirits. Nature
religions teach a philosophy of divine linking between all of the earth's
inhabitants.
This philosophy recognizes that humanity and the rest of creation can become
aware of the “oneness of creation”.
Herbalism is one vehicle we can use to express the oneness of creation, and
foster the divinity of nature.
The art and science of herbal medicine is,
for many people, the realization that we are ALL A PART OF GAIA. - The Earth. We teach that The
Earth is a living entity with senses, intelligence, memory and the capacity to
act.
Ayruveda, an Indian Science of Health, declares the Hindu concept of oneness:
“...people everywhere, are beginning to understand concepts like Gaia, the
ONENESS of the organism of earth. This happens by Pitta, the force of the
intellect, or Vishnu the preserver (a Hindu god), who keeps balance on earth
between the spiritual and demonic.”
In The Elements of Herbalism by Hoffman, it states: “Healing is a Gaian
quality, as it is a personal expression of balance and wholeness. The
relationship between healing plants and people, can be seen as Gaia in
action----the context of ecological embrace.” Herbal healing is “an
expression of very real and practical links with Gaia, there is an activation
of ecological cycles for healing. A unique opportunity is created by the
simple act of taking herbal medicines----such healing, goes beyond the
treatment of pathologies and alleviation of bodily suffering-rather, it is in
the realm of the transcendental, the ineffable transformation that comes
through the touch of the Great Spirit.
According to Cunningham's Wicca-a Guide for the Solitary Practitioner, Wicca is
a “religion, centering around reverence for nature, as seen in the Goddess and
the God. The Goddess is nature, the Universal Mother. The God is the consort of
the Goddess.”
In The Roots of Healing-A Woman’s Book of Herbs, it states: “We understand that
the primary “LIFE FORCE” of earth is contained within plants. We trust in earth’s
healing abilities, and therefore, have continued to call upon herbs for
nutritional, medicinal, and spiritual help. Our reverence for the mysteries of
birth, life, death, and renewal, guides us to live in harmony with nature, closely
following her rhythms. We are connected to changing seasons, the weather, and
the cycles of the moon----We are known in our communities as herbalists,
midwives, witches, nurses, and wise women----We have continued to practice our
healing arts despite centuries of persecution by religious organizations,
governments, and medical establishments----Over time, I realized that a
presence of unconditional love was emanating from earth herself through herbs.
This presence, I came to realize, is divine female wisdom, the great
Goddess."
We believe our religion is a positive, shamanistic, nature religion, with two
main deities honored and worshipped in our rites: the Goddess (the female
aspect and a deity related to the ancient Mother Goddess in her triple aspects
of maiden, mother and crone) and her consort, the Horned God (the male
aspect). Witchcraft is considered, by many, to be both a monistic and
pantheistic religion. In simple terms, it is a positive nature based religion,
preaching brotherly love, and harmony with, and respect for, all life forms. It
is very similar to Native American spirituality.”
According to the late Scott Cunningham, “Earth is a manifestation of divine
energy, and reveals her secrets ‘to Wiccans’, who listen to the earth. To be outdoors,
is to be in the temple and surrounded by sanctity.”
To Summarize: Witchcraft is the Natural
way of looking at the Earth and all its inhabitants. Herb crafting is
the Natural way of helping to keep the balance.

Becoming A Herbalist
Becoming A Herbalist
If you wish to become an Herbalist, your first step is to begin educating yourself. This can be done by attending a reputable Herbal College in the US, Canada, or the UK, or by taking Correspondence courses. Some courses teach a specific system of Herbal Medicine and others integrate the main systems of herbal medicine which are based on the traditional practice of Western, Chinese and Ayurvedic (East Indian) herbal medicine.
Herbal medicine is not only a profession, but it is a spiritual path A wise person once said that whatever energy is expended towards education is never lost.

The Lost Science Of Autotology
The Lost Science Of Autotology
In February of 1997 I was
doing some lectures in the Phoenix
Arizona area and I met a Medical Doctor from Canada who was introduced
to me by one of my distributors of Vital Ion Edible Oxygen.
He attended several of
my lectures and expressed an interest in my teaching him privately everything
that I had learned about my Vital Ion Edible Oxygen research
on Cancer and many other chronic disease.
I agreed to teach him
privately at his request as it was a great opportunity to also learn from him
as he was 85 years old and was one of the pioneer doctors that did the research
on layatril in Mexico. Well into our session and after six hours of
my teaching him what I had learned about my products and the need for a high
concentration of Oxygen at the cell level, He exclaimed ”Oh my gosh you are a
great “Autotologist”. I said to him, what is an Autotologist?
And he said that I was
teaching the Lost science of Autotology,
which means to teach others how to take control of their
health with all natural foods, herbs and clothing, pure water, pure clothing in
the safety of their own home and that health was automatic as long as we
followed the correct science of all natural things. He went on to say that I was the best Autotologist
that he had ever heard teach this science and that I could take the credit for
resurrecting the science.
He gave me a letter
concerning the science of Autotology
and told me that it is still taught in South America as well as most other
countries in the world with the exception of the US, Canada, and Europe.
I told the good Doctor that
I had never heard about this science and he replied that I was too young to
know about it because it was taught in the early years of this century, around
1914. He said that it was taught not only in the United States but Canada and
most of Europe and then the governments made it illegal to teach this science
like they tried to do with Naturopathy and some other known Alternative
Science’s.
In June of 2000, I was
invited to attend an International Alternative Health Convention in the Bahamas
attended by Alternative Medical doctors, Chiropractors,
Naturopathic Physicians, Nurses and many other health practioners. I was
honored to be able to teach many of the Doctors about my Oxygen Research. The Medical Doctor that got me the invitation
also put me on many conference calls from some of the Doctors that would be
attending the conference. All of the Doctors asked me what my background was
and I boldly told them that I did not have any formal degrees and that I was a
self taught Metallurgist. They all told me that in their opinion I didn’t need
a formal degree as I was light years ahead of Medical science and they would
only call me Dr. Palmer.
I had the opportunity to
teach many of the great doctors from all around the world of my research with
my Vital Ion Edible Oxygen thanks to one of the
patients of Dr. Smith (who invited me to the convention,) Polly H., who started
passing around a bottle of the Daytime High Energy Vital
Ion Edible Oxygen at the first day opening of
the morning session. Every one was suffering from JET
LAG as many traveled as far away as China,
Japan,
Africa
and Europe
and they were having a difficult time staying awake. Polly passed around the
product as I watched to see how every one was reacting to the results that took
only a few minutes to wake them up.
I was sitting in the back of
the room waiting for Craig Halley another one of Dr. Smith’s patience’s to
arrive that was using Vital Ion Edible
Oxygen for his health problems. You can read Craig Halley’s
testimony about his first treatment for his full blown Aide’s on the
Testimony’s page. Polly Henderson the other patient had a case of advanced
Hepatitis C with a viral load of an excess of one million and she had traveled
to the Convention to meet me and to do her own Brain Detoxifying treatment that
she could do own herself.
At the first break in the
meeting Polly and Dr. Smith came over to me with some of the Doctors that took
the Vital Ion Edible Oxygen
to ask me to teach them about my product as they all knew about the need for a
Stabilized Oxygen for all disease. All they knew about was the Hyperbaric
Chamber Oxygen research and some forms of
toxic Oxygen like Hydrogen Peroxide and some of the
other Oxygen products on the market.
A doctor from South Africa,
Dr. Peter Colette asked me, Dr. Palmer, what is your Doctorate in and I said Autotology.
He said that he was very familiar with the science and in his opinion it was
one of the better sciences being taught. While at the 3 day convention I met
many other Doctors from China
and Japan
that were familiar with the “Lost Science of Autotology”
which made me feel great as I was reluctant to tell anyone
about Autotology as it was virtually unknown to all of my
clients including all of the Doctors that I met through my many lectures.
The Alternative Medical
Convention that I attended in the Bahamas
was one of the best opportunities that I have had in the previous 9 years of
research with my products. I was given the VIP
room at the Sheraton Hotel on the first night to do some live blood cultures
using my Dark field Microscope. The
Doctors in attendance was astounded at the immediately changes that occurred in
the blood culture of Craig Halley who was terminal with full blown aides. We
adjourned to my room to do a Brain Detoxifying treatment that Craig was able to
do on his self. I only gave him the products and instructed him how to do the
treatment.
Craig completed his five
hour treatment at 5:00 am
and he felt so good that he wanted to take a walk on the beach. One of the gentlemen that attended convention
and treatment was not a doctor but he owned a hospital in Toronto, Canada.
We went with Craig to walk on the beach in the early morning. As we were
walking on the beach, Craig started running on the beach. He said that he felt
like he was going to live and that his prayers were answered with Vital
Ion Edible Oxygen and the unique protocol of the Brain
Detoxifying program that he was able to do on his
self. You can read his Testimony’s Page
on this web site.

Since October, 1991 I have
been doing research on the Divine product now known as Vital
Ion Edible Oxygen on myself and friends and others that
prayed for the answers to their health problems.
