My Personal Experience with Life Mel
by Dr Heime Geffen
I was diagnosed in October 2006 with Acute Myelocytic Leukaemia (also known as acute myeloid leukaemia, a cancer of the myeloid line of white blood cells). My white cell count at that time was 2.1 (Normal range: 6 to 11).
Following chemotherapy, my white blood cell count dropped to 1.2 and remained in that vicinity from November 2006 until March 2007. Due to the nature of my condition and these low results, it soon became apparent that chemotherapy was not working.
Chemotherapy was abandoned in February 2007 and all treatment ceased.I developed high fevers and chills in December 2006 and again in February 2007, requiring hospitalisation and prolonged courses of antibiotics. I deteriorated physically and was virtually bed-ridden. From February, I required frequent Platelet and Blood transfusions to improve levels of haemoglobin, white cells and platelets.
In early April 2007 I started taking LifeMel Honey. I was naturally a little sceptical at first, but knowing the nutritional value of honey was conscious that it couldn’t do any harm. I started taking the two teaspoons a day as directed and was amazed when after seven days I began to have more energy and feel stronger in myself physically.
However, the key point of my experience of taking LifeMel and the message I am keen to communicate are the facts; during the early period of taking LifeMel, my blood-work started improving and has continued to do so to this day. At the time of writing this testimonial – mid June 2007– my white cell count is 6.1 (normal, 6 to 11), my platelets are at 150,000 (normal 150,000 to 250,000) and my Haemoglobin is 135 (normal 130 to 145), l am out of bed, and have re-gained about 1 stone in weight. I have abandoned my walker and have played several rounds of golf, albeit only nine holes at a time.

The New Buzz from Israel to Los Angeles
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 13, 2007 -- Why are bees receiving the praise over the launch of LifeMel Chemo Support in the US? And why are so many chemotherapy patients turning to bees instead of running from them?
With the launch of LifeMel in the United States, more and more patients are turning to LifeMel Chemo Support for relief and couldn't be happier about the bees. The distribution rights were granted by Zuf Globus Laboratories, the renowned Israeli manufacturer of health products and nutritional supplements made of pure honey from bees fed medicinal herb formulas.
76 year old leukemia sufferer and retired doctor, Hime Geffen, said that within a week of starting to take LifeMel, he began feeling stronger and his blood count started improving. Only two months prior he was bed ridden, his chemotherapy treatment had been abandoned and his white cell count had dropped to a very low 1.2. "Today, my white-blood-cell count is virtually normal. I am out of bed, have abandoned my walker, have played several rounds of golf, and I will carry on taking it [the honey," Geffen says.
Nave Koren shares, "On the same week that I have started to use the LifeMel honey, the weakness was not so severe and I could get out of bed every morning, cook and function as a mother to my children. The itching in my body was completely gone, I did not have any limb pains, and my hemoglobin level keeps going up."
Since everyone's case is different, each person may experience differences in regards to their own relief and benefits. However, what does stay consistent is that while using LifeMel there are clinically proven benefits to the immune system and improved blood counts levels.
According to the American Cancer Society, the 2007 estimated number of cancer cases for men is 766,860 and 678,060 for women. Since there were so many people who benefited in Israel, New Horizons couldn't overlook the fact that so many people could possibly benefit from this amazing product here in the US. They were eager to introduce LifeMel in the US and hopefully start helping the numbers of people affected on a daily basis.
"We are committed to making a difference in the lives of our clients," says Karen Schakarov, VP of Marketing for New Horizons. "Some patients begin feeling stronger within ten days of starting LifeMel!" With so many people impacted by cancer, it is wonderful to know that in some small way, we can offer some relief to those who are suffering."

FDA Warns Not to Give Cold Medicine to Children Under 6; What Does a Parent Do? Here's a Honey of an Idea
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) March 12, 2008 -- An FDA panel study released in October came to the conclusion that there is no
evidence that more than 800 'over the counter medicines' help young children. The study said that they "just don't work" and cannot be recommended. Among the ingredients that have caused concern are anti-cough medicines including dextromethorphan, which is the DM in many preparations. They can cause neurological problems, including abnormal movements and hallucinations, even in standard doses.
The panel concluded that the effectiveness of cold and cough medicines are effective only at doses that are too strong for children. The American academy of pediatrics said, "These medicines are ineffective and can have serious side effects. There are other ways to treat cold symptoms."
So, what is a parent supposed to do? In an article printed in 2007 in the Archives of Pediatric Medicine, medical doctors at Penn State University reported on the effectiveness of honey, dextromethorphan (cough syrup), and 'no treatment' on nighttime coughs and sleeping for children age 2 and up. This study was conducted on children with upper respiratory tract infections, nighttime symptoms and illness of 7 days or less. What the doctors did was give the children either honey, honey flavored DM , or 'no treatment at all', 30 minutes prior to bedtime. The result was that there was a significant difference in symptom improvement between treatment groups for both cough reduction and improved sleep, with the honey treatment scoring consistently the best. Honey was significantly superior to 'no treatment', but DM was not better than 'no treatment'.
The conclusion was that honey may be a preferable treatment for the cough and sleep difficulty associated with childhood respiratory tract infection. Even the Word Health Organization cited honey as a potential treatment for cough and cold symptoms.
Honey has many reported health benefits and has repeatedly been shown to aid in wound healing, even for children. Furthermore, honey has well established antioxidant and antimicrobial effects and may help explain its superiority in the study. It should be noted that the study used 'buckwheat honey', a darker honey, and darker honeys tend to have a higher content of phenolic compounds which have been associated with these antioxidant properties of honey that have contributed to its effect in the study.
This is not new news to Dr. Alexander Goroshit who realized the positive effects of honey on human beings over 30 years ago. Using an all natural approach of feeding special nectars to bees, thereby producing different types of honey, led to his development of clinically tested LifeMel honeys. What he did then was to feed the bees specific therapeutic herbs for specific maladies. His reasoning was that the therapeutic herbs have proven to have value but the human body eliminates much of the important ingredients. Instead, by feeding the therapeutic herbs to the bees who ingest them, and through their natural digestive process, the ingredients and their therapeutic properties are incorporated in to the honey giving the herbs a higher level of effectiveness. The product is 100 percent natural and has nothing added to the honey after it is extracted from the beehives.
The result is LifeMel Honey which is produced solely in Israel by ZUF Globus Laboratories under Dr. Gorshit's supervision and is now available in the USA. Dr. Goroshit has developed many different honeys by feeding the bees different formulas of therapeutic herbs. The honeys are then packed without any human touching or further preparation.
In 2006 a clinical study was done using LifeMel Chemo Support honey to determine its effect on chemotherapy patients. Over 66% of the patients in the study experienced higher blood counts, were able to continue with their scheduled chemotherapy program and, generally had an improved quality of life. The conclusion of the study was that LifeMel honey was shown to reduce blood deficiencies for chemotherapy patients and thereby assist in their treatment regimen. The study was published in Medical Oncology, a peer medical journal, and a further clinical trial is now being conducted.
Now he has developed LifeMel Immune in which the bees are fed different therapeutic herbs than the Life Mel Chemo Support to target the immune system. LifeMel immune is also a dark honey (but without the unpleasant aftertaste of buckwheat honey) and designed to help the immune system and fight coughs and colds and reduce their symptoms. LifeMel honey is now being sold in the USA.
One last thing that the Penn State study found, which perhaps is just as important, is that parental sleep improved in a fashion similar to that of their children when using the honey treatment. Sweet, isn't it?
