Twenty-Six Ingredients Being Banned by the FDA on December 4, 2019 (and what you can do below)
Re: Proposed Rule FDA-2018-N-4845-0001 directly against 300 amazing compounds
On December 4, 2019, the Federal Drug Administration is planning on blocking patient access to more than 300 ingredients used in compounding medications. It is their way of forcing patients/consumers to use approved pharmaceutical drugs that are equivalent to the natural health supplements that will heal their condition.
The FDA is seeking to dismiss the need for personalized medicines that target specific diseases. In other words, they are insisting on a one size fits all approach to healing medicines which can prove to be disastrous and fatal to persons with delicate constitutions.
If the FDA is allowed to ratify this ban, patients will lose access to safe, life-saving medications that they rely on daily.
Here is a list of the 26 ingredients detailing their importance, and efficacy about healing protocols that will be impacted on December 4, 2019:
(1). 7-Keto-DHEA
Just last week, I saw that it was being used in a formulation showing a 4 year reversal in biological age in the reputable journal Aging Cell. It was one of the most ground-breaking experiments in aging in the last year.
DHEA is a source hormone produced by glands near the kidneys. It is a supplement that is used to speed up the body’s metabolism and weight management. 7-Keto-DHEA regulates the thyroid gland, boosts the immune system, and treats depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorders.
When used as a means to facilitate weight loss, research has shown it enhances the loss of body fat, suppresses the appetite and increases the metabolic rate significantly. As a weight loss supplement, there are no adverse side effects associated with 7-Keto-DHEA. Research has proved it decreases the effects of alcohol therefore this supplement may be used as a sobering agent which makes it a groundbreaking remedy in the prevention of alcohol-related incidents.
(2). Acetyl -L-Carnitine
This is very important in Bredesen Protocol, the only mainstream scientist that has claimed to reverse Alzehiemers disease.
ALC is known for boosting mental actions such as learning, reasoning, awareness, and perception. It improves the memory, mood and mental performance of human beings. This supplement is effective in treating depression and symptoms related to Alzheimer’s disease.
Recent scientific studies have indicated it deters slower declines in Alzheimer’s patients. Although there are minimal side effects associated with Acetyl-L-Carnitine it shows promising results in regards to the treatment of diabetes and regulating blood sugar levels.

(5).Artemisinin
If anyone knows the value of artemisinin its the US government’s own CDC (The US Center for Disease Control). The CDC, a for profit enterprise has just recently purchased the best Chinese Artemisinin that produces artesunate which can be used in IV. But, you are no longer able to purchase as a cancer therapy. You must prove that you have malaria.
This supplement is also known as wormwood which is used in Traditional Chinese Medicine as an anti-parasitic herb, sedative, and laxative. It prevents infections, boosts the immune system and provides successful results with cancer treatments because of its ability to destroy cancer cells. As a sedative, it calms and relaxes nerves and muscles.
Artemisinin is known for treating worm infestations that cause a lack of appetite and digestive issues. Its anti-parasitic action stimulates the expulsion of worms and parasites from the body. The World Health Organization has deemed it an effective remedy in treating malaria. It has been tested and proven to be one of the best treatments for fevers for the past 2000 years.
It’s hugely important to the lyme disease community.
(6). Astragalus Extract 10:1
This is the extract that has produced the commercial product TA-65, which has a ton of research on massively regrowing telomeres which are considered by some longevity scientists as being one of the key causes of aging. No one knows. But fuck it, the FDA knows better than traditional chinese medicine and ayurvedic medicine that has been using this for thousands of years.
The Astragalus Extract is an herb that boosts the immune system and prevents cancer. It is helpful to individuals whose immune systems have been compromised; for instance, it helps Aids and cancer patients fight off infections, viruses, colds, and flu.

Boswellia is used by natural health practitioners to treat chronic inflamed conditions, affiliated with osteoarthritis, brain tumors, and joint disorders. It eases pain and is often consumed instead of NSAIDs to reduce inflammation, fever reduction and pain. It is a safe remedy when taken in dietary allowances found in food.
(8). Cesium Chloride
Cs Cl is used to heal terminal cancer. It is widely known as the alternative treatment for malignant cancers. It neutralizes and prevents cancer cells from dividing and stimulates the production of white cancer cells. Cesium is a potent protectant against chemotherapy treatments.
It is used in small amounts in radiation detection equipment and medical radiation therapy devices for treating cancer. The statistics on Cesium Chloride have shown a 50% recovery on various cancers such as breast, colon, prostate, pancreatic, lung, liver, lymphoma, Ewing sarcoma of the pelvis and adeno cancer of the gallbladder.
(9). Chondroitin Sulfate
A supplement used to treat arthritic conditions. It is made with animal ingredients such as shark and cow cartilage which is beneficial to the joints within the body. It is oftentimes used to treat osteoarthritis, iron deficiency anemia, HIV/Aids, and heart disease.
Chondroitin Sulfate is a pain reliever that improves joint functions and provides shock-absorbing properties of collagen. It keeps cartilage supple and reverses the loss of flexibility. When consumed accurately, it slows down the progression of joint and bone disorders. According to the Arthritis Foundation, the supplement is safe and it markedly improves pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis.
(10). Chrysin
I have used this for estrogen blocking. It’s a botanical in nature. You use it in a compounded cream.
Chrysin is a crystalline aromatic compound used to treat anxiety, gout, inflammation and HIV/Aids. It prevents cancer, brain damage and aids in the treatment of diabetes. It is found in honey, skull cap, yerba santa, passion flowers, carrots, chamomile, fruits, and mushrooms.

Deoxy-D-Glucose has anti-cancer and anti-viral properties making it relevant in the treatment against various cancers. The reason it is so effective in the fight against cancer is due to the fact it staves off cancer cells and reduces their energy allowing chemo treatments to be more successful. DDG targets tumor hyperactivity in breast and prostate cancer patients. It creates a protein deficiency that deters the availability of nutrients to cancer cells.
(14). Diindolylmethane
Man boobies and big protuding guts. I wish I could say this was for weight problems. But your weight problems are related to endocrine and stress. But it’s really for those who are also mishaped by endocrine imbalances. I wish there was another way I could say how important this is to natural doctors. It’s a goto supplement.
This is extremely important in minimizing estrogen from stress and diet. If there was ever a supplement that so many people can benefit, it’s this one because of its effects on the overweight population.
Diindolylmethane is known as DIM is found in cabbage, cauliflower, Brussel sprouts, broccoli, and kale. It has anti-cancer properties and is used in the treatment of breast and prostate cancer. It destroys cancer cells, aids in pain management and reduction of swelling associated with specific cancers.

(21). NAD
David Sinclair, the most famous longevity scientist on the planet said that this substance was the closest thing that we have currently to a “fountain of youth”. (Time Magazine, Feb 2018)
Once deemed as GRAS, generally recognized as safe for many decades, the FDA has decided to ban NAD after Sinclair and other scientists have made bold declarations about the vitamin.
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is a supplement that decreases the appetite and deters the progression of aging. It treats the high concentration of fats and lipids in the blood, inadequate blood circulation, and restores blood flow to organs and tissues after a stroke or heart attack.
NAD is effective in the treatment of addiction, emotional issues, physical stress, depression, and anxiety. Low levels of the supplement cause diminished energy, a compromised immune system, brain fog, depression, and fatigue. NAD supplementation can eliminate drug cravings and chronic pain. A recent journal article showed a 40% reversal in Alzheimers in a mouse model, the most expensive disease in America at $350 Billion now, and predicted to go to $1 Trillion by 2030.
NAD has been used for decades in the treatment of all drug addictions and even Bill Wilson, founder of AA knew about this therapy. Research has shown a 90% reduction in cravings.
(22). NADH
NAD and NADH are similar supplements with a few differences. This supplement is for treating chronic fatigue syndrome, jet lag, and mental confusion. It focuses on the chemical process of energy generation as it enhances physical performance and athletic abilities.
NADH is used in the prevention of side effects of certain drugs prescribed for children. Clinical evidence suggests it helps to reduce hypertension symptoms and lowers cholesterol levels. Persons with Parkinson’s disease have declared it increases nerve signals which creates better coordination of movements.
(23). Rubidium Chloride
RbCl is used to prevent diabetes, regulate hormonal imbalance and treat symptoms of depression. It acts upon the central nervous system by transmitting chemical responses to the brain via the central nervous system. It affects the development of behavioral and affective disorders, such as mood swings, insomnia, low energy, bipolar disorder, anxiety, schizophrenia, and lack of concentration when used for 3 months or more it moderately improves symptoms.
Rubidium Chloride may be obtained from food sources such as Brazil nuts, spinach, parsley, rhubarb, cashews, beets, and dandelion tea. RbCl is used in nuclear medicine testing. For example, Pet scans to reveal and evaluate conditions such as cancers, heart disease, and brain disorders. It is also an integral part of Myocardial Perfusion Imaging. This a non-invasive imaging test showing how well the blood flows through the heart muscle. It also defines the areas which are not receiving enough blood.
(24). Sodium Dichloroacetate
DCA is a remedy used for cancer treatments. Studies have indicated it kills cancer cells and reverses the growth of tumors. It has been used in several clinical trials on individuals suffering from brain cancer or glioblastoma.
Sodium DCA has been used for decades in alternative cancer treatments. It enhances the healing effects of radiation therapy in the treatment of ovarian, brain, breast, prostate, cervical, colon, lung, Non-Hodgkin Follicular Lymphoma, and uterine cancer. It is effective in the long term stabilization of metastatic melanoma.
(25). Vanadyl Sulfate
Vanadium is another name for the trace mineral. It is needed to maintain strong bones and teeth. It is prominently used to manage blood glucose levels in individuals with Type 2 diabetes. Vanadyl Sulfate has anti-microbial properties and is promoted as a weight loss and bodybuilding supplement.
It is best known for the prevention of cancer, cardiovascular disease, Anemia and treating tuberculosis and syphilis. The mineral is found in whole grains, cereals, dill seeds, spinach, and mushrooms. Vanadium inhibits the growth of tumor cells, reduces cholesterol and imitates the effects of insulin making it a powerful supplement for diabetes management.
(26). VIP
Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide is a peptide hormone responsible for the contracting actions of the heart. It lowers arterial blood pressure, relaxes muscle activity of the trachea, stomach and gall bladder. VIP is an anti-inflammatory peptide that regulates the actions of the endocrine system.
It creates a calming effect throughout the tissues of the body. VIP acts as an anti-microbial peptide with anti-bacterial and anti-fungal activity. The peptide was proven successful in treating rheumatoid arthritis, endometriosis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and Pulmonary Hypertension. It improves the metabolism and heals the lining of the intestinal tract.
The compounds which have been legislated to be banned are important supplements as they all have positive effects concerning the treatments of major illnesses like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. In a society where a large percentage of its population is being treated with conditions relating to these primary health matters, it would appear as if the FDA is committed to the rapid decline of the wellness of the general population.
In the past few decades, the research has shown that conventional medications come with some severe side effects. Making these compounds unavailable or banning them are taking away consumers’ rights to have choices concerning their health care.
In a nation as prosperous as America methods of treatment should be a right, not a luxury or a matter regulated by the government.
