Flax Oil and Cottage Cheese - FOCC, the Incredible Mixture

The Flax Oil and Cottage Cheese Combination

The amazing health benefits of flax seed oil are even more clearly defined by the Budwig Protocol. The following is a condensed write-up of this protocol, based on my personal understanding.

This is a simplistic and layman’s viewpoint of the Budwig Protocol. For more information on this protocol and how flax seed oil benefits health, do a search on the internet. Later, I may put up more information on this protocol.

Dr Johanna Budwig, a German biochemist and seven-time nominee for the Nobel Prize, discovered decades ago that the bodies of chronically ill persons who suffered from various diseases, including the deadly one called ?cancer?, were all deficient in a particular substance. She found out that this was caused by severe deficiencies in unsaturated fats, which are good fats.

She went on to discover the extreme importance of fat metabolism in the overall health and wellbeing of a person, including his or her emotional wellbeing. When the fat deficiencies and imbalances were addressed, the diseases also went away.

Dr Budwig found flax seed oil to be the single best source of such unsaturated fats to tackle the problem. Flax seed oil is incredibly rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, and also contains other essential fatty acids.

The problem was that flax oil is, well, fat soluble, and needs to be metabolized by the liver before it becomes available to the body. Herein lay a tricky issue – the livers of severely ill persons are usually badly impaired, so they would not be able to properly assimilate the large amounts of flax oil they ingested.

Dr Budwig then made a further discovery – that, when mixed with certain sulferated proteins, flax oil becomes water soluble, the liver is bypassed, and the body can much more easily absorb and use the flax oil.

She found cottage cheese to be the best and most readily available source of these sulferated proteins. And hence, the flax oil and cottage cheese mixture, also called FOCC, was born.

The Budwig Protocol is more than just about flax oil and cottage cheese. It also includes other elements, such as an entire dietary protocol, as well as regular sunshine and an improved emotional outlook. But the flax oil and cottage cheese mixture does form a core part of the treatment, as it is able to bring to people the various flax seed oil benefits in a more usable form.

Over the past 50 years or so, and even today, many people have used and are using the Budwig Protocol to recover from various diseases, especially cancer. I am personally in touch with some of them. It is not easy, as it requires wholesale dietary and lifestyle changes, as well as patience, dedication and commitment. But its results are impressive. It is very clear that flax oil benefits health tremendously.

Due partly to the fact that Dr Budwig’s writings were mostly in German, this protocol has remained largely a “secret” for many years. However, with the translation of her works, the word is getting out, and more and more people are learning about how flax seed oil benefits health and can literally transform one’s life, bringing about recovery from even supposedly incurable diseases.

Dr Budwig brought the health benefits of flax seeds to the world. To many people, flax oil is almost literally synonymous with her name and the Budwig Protocol.

Dr Johanna Budwig lived into her 90s, and only passed away a few years ago – I believe in 2002 or 2003 – from a fall. This, I feel, is the truest testimony of the effectiveness of her protocol, the health benefits of flax seed oil, and the healthful and healing properties of the flax oil and cottage cheese combination.
