15 Uses for Papaya Leaf Tea
 
15 Uses for Papaya Leaves - A Powerful Cure for Cancer
 
Posted by Dr. Paul Haider on July 30, 2013 
 
Here is a link for the purchase of Kaylx Papaya dried leaf from Pennsylvania.
The Papaya leaf tea should be drunk in large amounts daily to accelerate the remission of advanced cancer, it is in my opinion at the very top of the list for natural cancer therapies.
 
Most people know about papayas but not many know about the amazing health benefits of Papaya Leaves. 
 
Papaya Leaves contain powerful healing compounds that are very important for great health and vitality... and for curing cancer and dengue fever, among other things.
 
Indigestion-Heartburn - Papaya Leaves are great for getting rid of invading bacteria that cause upset stomach problems because they contain karpain which kills bacteria. And it contains lots of papain, protease enzyme, and amylase enzyme which help to breaks down proteins, carbs, and sooth the GI tract... and helps with acid reflux. 
 
Papaya Leaves reduce inflammation of the stomach lining and heal gastric ulcers by killing H. pylori bacteria. And Papaya Leaf tea soothes away colon inflammation from IBS and other inflammatory bowel diseases. 
 
Break Down Wheat Gluten - Papaya Leaves have the ability to break down wheat gluten making it easy to digest. 
 
Cancer - Papaya Leaves have a milky sap that’s great for preventing and killing cancer cells because it contains acetogenin. 
 
There are many studies including studies in Japan showing that Papaya Leaves are effective for curing cancer. And there are people who have cured their cancer by drinking Papaya Leaf Tea for extended periods of time. 
 
The University of Florida did studies showing that Papaya Leaves contain agents that kill cancer, especially cervix, prostate, liver, breast, and lung cancer. The more concentrated the tea the better the results... and there are no side effects of any kind. 
 
Down through history in Australia the native aboriginal people have talked about Papaya Leaf Tea as a great cancer healing agent, also in Asia and other places. 
 
Most recommend taking 10 leaves, cutting them up and boiling them in a 1/2 gallon water until it boils down to quart... then let it cool. The tea will keep in the frig for 2 days in a glass jar with a tight fitting lid... drink as much as possible.
 
Plus Papaya Leaf tea enhances chemotherapy... and helps with chemotherapy side effects.
 
Prostate Enlargement - Papaya Leaf tea can help with benign prostate enlargement and also help with rectal lesions problems associated with prostate enlargement. 
 
Acne Remedy - If you have acne then take dried Papaya Leaves and putting them in a blender with just enough water to make a paste. Then take the paste and used it as a mask, let it dry, and then wash it off... it works great for acne! 
 
Increase Platelet Count - Papaya Leaf Tea cures thrombocytopenia or low platelet counts which keeps a person from clotting. There have been many studies showing that Papaya Leaf Tea can increase platelet counts in cases of vitamin deficiencies, chemotherapy, dengue fever and more. 
 
Menstrual Pain - Take 6 Papaya Leaves and boil them in a liter of water for 15 minutes. Then add any kind of juice that you like... let cool and drink one large glass 3 times a day. 
 
Laxative - Papaya Leaves made into a strong tea also work well as a good laxative... for those who suffer from constipation. 
 
Dengue Fever - Papaya Leaves made into a tea lower fevers and helps with colds, flues, and even dengue fever... and some even call it a cure for dengue fever. 
 
Skin Problems - Papaya Leaves can help with fungal infections of the skin, warts, scars... and get rid of freckles. 
 
Increase Appetite - Papaya Leaf tea increases appetite bringing vigor and vitality back to the body. 
 
Cataracts - Papaya Leaf tea can prevent cataracts. 
 
Emphysema - Papaya Leaves contain lots of Vitamin D which prevents emphysema. 
 
Immune Booster - Papaya Leaves contains lots of powerful antioxidants that boost your immune system and stave off cardiovascular disease, strokes, and cancer. Papaya Leaves create “Th1” a cytokines which boost the immune system and fights cancer. 
 
Anti-Aging - Papaya Leaf also contains 50 or more different amino acids such as: threonine, glutamate acid, glycine, valine, leucine, phenylalanine, lysine, tritophan, cysteine, histidine, tyrosine, alanine, proline, aspartate, and more... and some of these agents are used in cosmetics for creating young healthy looking skin, and have been used as anti-aging compounds.
 
Contains - Papaya Leaf contains lots of great nutrients such as B-Vitamins for vitality and enhanced mood, Vitamins A and C which are powerful antioxidants, calcium and Vitamin D which are important for strong bones, Vitamin E which is important for sexual and cardiovascular health. Flavonoids that are powerful antioxidants that keep away cancer and cardiovascular disease, tannins that boost the immune system, and betacarotene for immune enhancement and eye health.    
 
You can find Papaya Leaf tea on-line or ask for it at your local health food store or from the link at the top of this article.  
 
 
Rife Digital Professional
 
How Can This Work?
Dr. Rife discovered that when viruses, bacteria and parasites are bombarded with electrical pulses of the right frequency, they shake apart.  This is an inherent characteristic shared by all objects and living beings called "Resonant Frequency," which is the frequency at which an object naturally vibrates.
 
Resonant frequencies are what makes a string on a stringed instrument produce a certain note.  But resonant frequencies, in addition to producing music can also cause objects to shake so uncontrollably that their stability is undermined.  This is what happened to the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in 1940.  The wind reached resonance with the bridge and it shook apart.  The same is ture with pathogens.  When the frequency being intoduced into the body by way of feet and/or hand straps reaches resonance with whatever pathogen it resonates with, it undermines it's stability and kills it.  
 
Another example is when a soprano hits a high note and a wine glass shatters.  A simple premise and a well kept secret by the medical powers that be.

Crispy Baked Oyster Caesar Salad Bites
 
Serves 6
 
Oyster lovers, rejoice! There’s no deep-frying required to enjoy plump, crispy-on-the-outside and tender-on-the-inside breaded oysters. We nestle the baked oysters on a bed of Caesar-dressed romaine lettuce for a unique hors d’oeuvre or party snack. The recipe easily doubles for a crowd.
 
Ingredients: 
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 12 oysters, shucked
  • Olive spray oil
  • 1 heart of romaine lettuce
  • 1/3 cup prepared Caesar dressing
Method: 
 
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.  

Place flour in a small shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, beat together egg and 1 tablespoon water until smooth. In a third bowl, stir together panko, salt and cayenne. One at a time, roll oysters in flour, dip in egg, coat in panko and place on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly coat oysters with spray oil. Bake until browned and crispy, about 12 minutes.  

Meanwhile, separate lettuce into leaves. Cut enough leaves so you have 12 (2-inch) squares of lettuce. Place on a platter. Very thinly slice some of the remaining leaves so you have 1 1/2 cups loosely packed lettuce. In a bowl, toss sliced lettuce with dressing. Divided dressed lettuce among lettuce squares and top with a hot oyster. Serve immediately.

  • 1 bunch collards, stems and tough ribs removed, leaves finely chopped (about 7 lightly packed cups)

  • 1 (28-ounce) can no-salt-added crushed tomatoes
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red chile flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha sauce, plus more for serving
  • 6 large eggs
  • 6 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
Method: 
 
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until softened, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in collards, working in batches until all fit in the pan. Cover the pan and cook until tender, stirring in a few tablespoons of water if necessary to keep the collards from sticking, about 10 minutes.

Seared Scallops with Braised Short Rib Ragoût, Cauliflower and Maitake Mush
 
Serves 4
 
Secret Ingredient: Smoked Paprika
 
Ingredients: 
  • Short Ribs
  • 1 tablespoon grapeseed, vegetable or olive oil
  • 1 pound beef short ribs (about 2 to 3 meaty ribs)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped celery
  • 1/4 cup chopped carrot
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika or pimetón
  • 1 cup red wine (Merlot, Cabernet, or Red Zinfandel)
  • 1/2 cup cola
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 sprig thyme
  • Cauliflower
  • 1 small head cauliflower, cut into 4 thick slices
  • 2 tablespoons grapeseed, vegetable or olive oil
  • Mushrooms
  • 1 cup maitake mushrooms, pulled apart into smaller pieces (substitute cremini, oyster or wild mushrooms)
  • 2 tablespoons grapeseed, vegetable or olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • Scallops
  • 4 U-8 sea scallops
  • 2 tablespoons grapeseed, vegetable or olive oil
Method: 
 
Short Ribs
Preheat oven to 350°F and season ribs on all sides with salt. Heat oil in a 2- to 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. When oil is slightly smoking, add ribs and brown on all sides, approximately 2 minutes per side. Remove ribs and set aside. Pour off excess oil, leaving a small amount of oil in the pan. Lower heat to medium and add garlic, onion, celery, carrot and smoked paprika. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften and turn golden around the edges, about 3 minutes. Add red wine, cola, bay leaf and thyme. Bring to a boil. Add ribs back to the saucepan and enough cold water to completely cover the ribs. Bring to a boil, cover with foil or an ovenproof lid and place in the oven. Braise 2 hours or until the ribs are tender and flake easily with a fork. Allow ribs to cool, then remove meat from bone. Roughly chop the meat, place in a container and refrigerate until needed. Strain cooking liquid through a fine mesh sieve over a bowl, reserving the liquid. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours or until the fat has solidified. Skim off and discard the fat. Heat the chopped meat with the defatted cooking liquid and keep warm over low heat for final assembly. Season broth with salt and black pepper.

Chef's Tip: The short ribs are best made one day in advance and reheated over low heat in cooking liquid before final assembly.

Cauliflower and Mushrooms
Turn oven temperature up to 450°F or preheat oven to 450°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange cauliflower in a single layer on one side of the baking sheet. Drizzle cauliflower with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place mushrooms on a piece of foil and bend the sides to form a tray. Drizzle mushrooms with olive oil and soy sauce and season with salt and pepper. Place mushrooms on baking sheet next to cauliflower. Roast 20 to 25 minutes, until cauliflower is golden and mushrooms are crispy around the edges.

Scallops
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season scallops on both sides with salt. Add oil to the skillet and then add the scallops. Sear scallops 2 minutes, until a golden crust forms. Turn scallops and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer, until golden and crisp on both sides.

Assembly
Spoon a mound of short rib ragu, approximately 2 heaping tablespoons, onto the center of a dinner plate. Place one slice of cauliflower on top of the ribs. Place a scallop on top of the cauliflower. Arrange roasted mushrooms around the short ribs, cauliflower and scallop. Drizzle mushrooms with braising liquid. Garnish with smoked paprika.

Easy Duchess Potatoes
 
Serves 12
 
Ideal for entertaining, these decorative, individual servings of mashed potatoes will wow your guests. Fold in finely chopped fresh herbs such as chives or parsley, if you like.
 
Ingredients: 
  • 3 large Russet potatoes (about 3 pounds), peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
  • 3/4 cup half-and-half
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 egg yolks
  • Olive spray oil
Method: 
 
Place potatoes in a large pot, cover by 1 inch with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain well and return potatoes to the pot. Heat potatoes over medium-low heat, stirring often, until dried out and very little steam remains, about 5 minutes.  

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add half-and-half, butter, nutmeg, salt and pepper to potatoes and mash with a potato masher until smooth. Vigorously stir in yolks until well combined. Spoon potatoes into 12 (3-inch) mounds on the prepared baking sheet, swirling the tops with the back of the spoon. Alternatively, transfer mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a large star or round tip and pipe potatoes. Lightly spray tops with oil and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.  

(NOTE: To make ahead and freeze, form potatoes on the baking sheet as instructed and then freeze until firm. Transfer to a large, resealable freezer bag or airtight container and freeze up to 3 months. When ready to serve, place frozen potatoes on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet, spray with oil and bake at 400°F until golden brown, about 30 minutes.)

Tapas: Tiny Treasures of Spain
 
Picture yourself in Spain. It's early evening and you've just finished running with the bulls. Well, even it was just a regular day in Spain, we bet you'd be eating tapas, the country's beloved collection of small plates and delicious bits that accompany wine and great laughs all night long.
 
Tapas bars are the quintessential place to sample Spain's tapas fare, which includes stuffed piquillo peppers, roasted almonds, salt cod, olives, Serrano ham, Manchego cheese and slices of salty, rich chorizo.
 
The assertive salty flavors of most tapas make them ideal paired with almost any wine, beer, sherry, or cider for sipping and supping. We think eating tapas with a glass of wine is the ultimate food lover's ritual for unwinding at the end of the day.

The Origins of Tapas

Tapas used to refer to a variety of little snacks like olives, almonds and cubes of sheep's milk cheese generally consumed while standing up in neighborhood bars with a glass of beer, wine, or sherry. And you want to know the best part? They were often handed out for free.
 
These days, it still includes those same items, but the tapas menu has expanded. Now, visiting a tapas bar is both a social opportunity and a way to relieve hunger between meals. In Spain, the day's largest meal is lunch, and since dinner is routinely eaten late in the evening, tapas bars are generally very busy with folks who want to tide themselves over until dinner.

Tapas Today

Over time, tapas has come to encompass everything from simple marinated olives, slices of Serrano ham, and cubes of artisan Manchego cheese to small portions of traditional hot dishes like paella and salt cod croquettas. It's not uncommon now to make a whole meal of these savory small bites. Here are a few favorites:
 
Tortilla Patata: a classic simple dish of potatoes cooked in olive oil with eggs and onions in olive oil
 
Patatas Brava: crisp fried potatoes topped with a spicy tomato sauce.
 
Preserved seafood: tinned anchovies, tuna and shellfish are served alone or used in preparations
 
Fresh seafood: sautéed shrimp or mushrooms with olive oil and lots of garlic are common
Note: In some tapas bars, everything is served on toasted bread. In others, everything is served pincho or on a toothpick; the empty toothpicks are used to tally the bill.

Entertaining with Tapas

From handcrafted olive oils, to pungent cheeses and premium canned tunas, the culinary offerings of Spain are as rich and varied as their people — from the tough hearty countrymen of Extremadura to the trendsetting urban dwellers in Catalonia's Barcelona.
 
Preparing your own tapas at home is a great way to get to know Spanish food. To get you started, we've put together a uniquely Spanish menu that you can use to spice-up your next gathering.
  1. Set out in little bowls or cazuelas:
    • Marinated olives
    • Marcona or tamari-roasted almonds
    • Sautéed shrimp or mushrooms in oil and garlic
  2. Spread toasted bread with a dollop of roasted garlic aioli and top with:
  3. Grilled or marinated anchovies or sardines
  4. Piquillo peppers
  5. Serrano ham and Manchego cheese
  6. Marinated tomatoes with garlic
  7. Anchovies wrapped around piquillo peppers
  8. Olives stuffed with chiles, almonds, goat cheese or sun dried tomatoes
  9. Cubes of Manchego or Urgelia cheese
  10. Fried or roasted cubed potatoes with aioli for dipping
  11. Chunks of spicy chorizo sausage with aioli for dipping
  12. Skewer on toothpicks:

What does "tapas" mean?

Need a bit of trivia for your next party? Ask folks what the word "tapas" really means. It's actually derived from the word "tapar", which means "to cover." Why? Because tapas were originally small pieces of bread topped with a slice of cured ham that bartenders used to cover your glass of wine, reportedly to keep the swarms of fruit flies away.
 
As clever bartenders discovered that salty ham spurred beverage sales, the delicious tradition of tapas was born. Today, the concept has evolved to include little dishes of hot, cold and marinated foods.

Don't go thirsty

Just as important as the tapas themselves are the beverages they're served with. Consider opening a few of these special bottles to celebrate the occasion of eating tapas:
  • Spanish sparkling wine, called Cava, such as Sumarroca Brut Riserva
  • Spanish rosé
  • Red or white Rioja
  • Red or white sangria
  • Beers like Negro Modelo or Estrella Galicia (a Spanish tradition)
  • Your favorite sherry
