FROM Russia with love and hi-tech savvy, a machine that reads how healthy one’s body is by using sound to detect what’s wrong (or could go wrong) and what’s right.
Manuel Kiok, whose business (in Banawe, Quezon City) is “bringing wellness, generation to generation,” is not a doctor but after years researching, studying, and experiencing various illnesses including a recent episode of Bell’s palsy, he’s “better than a quack doctor but not qualified to be an M.D.” His Canadian-based colleague, Victor Chua, shares his interest in treating illnesses naturally, sans invasive procedures except in major cases. The body heals itself, the body is its own best pharmacy.
Tell that to a typical Western-style medic and he’ll tell you to tell it to the marines. He’ll pooh-pooh herbal medicines growing as a weed in your backyard, and as for that Russian-made machine, he’s sure there have been other, better models. Nonetheless, Manuel, who owns the machine, and Victor agree on one thing: Medicines that did not come from the big drug manufacturers will never get their imprimatur from the FDA. Just listen to the drug makers’ reaction to the public clamor to cut prices of medicines!
To cite an example, when Manuel Kiok had a bad case of Bell’s palsy, his facial muscles were so weakened that he was totally unrecognizable. Weeks later, he took a selfie and this time he looked like himself, all because of a medicine that he swears also promotes a smoother complexion. Victor Chua the naturalist wants to assure the mothers of blue babies, those born with a “leaking” heart, that there’s no need to despair, the cure is there, “it’s just not readily available” because it’s not in the system, it’s not made in the West.
I listened intently to the two gentlemen during a casual (but noisy) Christmas dinner, at which our responses to their stories were louder than their two voices. The two of them are alike in their advocacies to spread the wealth of being healthy: Avoid GMO foods like yellow corn, remember “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” and VCO daily is good for you, too, drink hot but not too hot water (cold water shocks your system).
Make yours a healthy Christmas 2019!
