Cure Cancer During Pregnancy / Cure Autoimmune Disease During Pregnancy: How to Use Food and Nutrition to Get Healthier During Gestation

Flaxseeds and flaxseed oil are a superfood that can be used to cure major diseases like cancer or autoimmunity during pregnancy. Combine the power of the Budwig smoothie with Iodine therapy and supportive nutrients for best results.
The Budwig smoothie is a fundamental piece of any healing protocol. If you became pregnant before you had the opportunity to clean up your diet or make lifestyle changes that would’ve made your body more comfortable during gestation, the Budwig smoothie will help you improve your health in baby steps (no pun included) without having to learn a lot of new material or make radical lifestyle changes while you’re in the throes of major physical changes. 

Dr. Johanna Budwig was a doctor and also a candidate for the Nobel Prize due to her knowledge and work with fats, oils, and proteins. She was one of the world’s most knowledgeable experts on fats and oils and she figured out a way to use fats and oils with proteins in a simple smoothie to rebuild human cells that were sick and dying. Fats and oils, after all, are meant to be electrical in the body. 

Healthy fats and oils transmit electricity. This is important because each cell in the body must be able to use electricity to send signals and messages to other cells in the body. But without plenty of healthy oils in the diet, cells shut down, they become depressed, and they stop communicating with other cells. If a lot of our cells get sick and depressed, our bodies begin to feel sick and depressed. 

But what constitutes a “healthy oil”?

Healthy Oils vs. Unhealthy Oils

Healthy oils are oils that have not been heated or exposed to a lot of light. Healthy oils are usually not packaged in plastic as the food oils can degrade the petroleum oils that are used to make the plastic leading to an intermingling of the two. Oils that are packaged in plastic should thus be avoided during pregnancy (and really all the time if you want to keep your body healthy). Oils that are packaged in transparent materials should also be avoided. Choose oils that are cold-pressed and that are packaged in darkly colored bottles that are made of glass. And then, when you use these oils in the diet, do not heat them. Consume these cold-pressed, unheated oils in their pure form to rebuild your cellular membranes and to make sure that your baby has plenty of healthy fatty acids to build its brain and body too.

Fats / Oils and Proteins

Dr. Budwig developed her smoothie recipe to optimize the body’s ability to digest fats / oils and proteins. Fats and proteins are extremely important during pregnancy. Fats and oils contain the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K1 and K2. Proteins contain the essential amino acids that our body and our baby’s body needs to be able to produce every structure, every enzyme, and every neurotransmitter and hormone that will make the body work properly. The B vitamins and vitamin C are present in many fruits that can be added to the Budwig smoothie. Raw honey contains a wealth of health-promoting nutrients and as such, this is another ingredient that makes an excellent addition to the Budwig smoothie. All that’s left are minerals which can be obtained by drinking seawater supplements or humic / fulvic acid added to drinking water. Below we talk a bit about sunlight and sea water exposure as a valuable way to naturally treat liver disease during pregnancy, but drinking sea water supplements or taking a shilajit supplement provides the body with a wealth of trace minerals too.

Many of the most serious health issues that occur during pregnancy start from congestion in the liver and gallbladder. And congestion in the liver and gallbladder is intimately tied to problems related to fat consumption and digestion. The consumption of heated oils or fried foods, for example, can cause pregnant women a lot of grief through the production of bile sludge. Bile sludge or gallstones (another consequence of eating fried foods and heated oils) can, in turn, clog up the common bile duct that connects the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas in 91% of women. If the common bile duct becomes partially clogged, pancreatic enzymes may get backed up into the pancreas, causing the beta cells in the islets of Langerhans to become damaged. This can then cause gestational diabetes. Damage to the beta cells is something that can be repaired, despite the fact that doctors claim otherwise, using herbal medicines like Melissa officinalis or Passiflora incarnata. Nonetheless, unhealthy fats can have significantly negative effects on the health of pregnant women and often, women have no idea that heated oils are causing a lot of their health problems and discomfort.

Why You Should Eat the Budwig Smoothie in the Sun

You’ll prepare the Budwig smoothie and consume it immediately while it’s still fresh. Ideally, you should eat the smoothie while sitting in the sun to ensure that your body produces plenty of natural vitamin D and fumaric acid as a result of sunlight exposure to the skin. Sunlight causes the body to produce natural, healthy endorphins, which are roughly equivalent to natural opiates. During pregnancy, these natural endorphins that are produced as a result of sunlight exposure work as natural pain killers. During pregnancy, it’s hard to find safe painkillers that work reliably so tuck this fact about sunlight and endorphins into your back pocket. Sunlight exposure during pregnancy also helps the body tune back into the natural rhythms of nature which is essential to prevent serious problems like preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, and gestational diabetes. Though we’ve been taught to avoid sunlight, in reality, sun exposure gives our body a natural way to cope with and overcome pain. Sunlight heals the liver and the gallbladder. And our bodies use sunlight to produce fumaric acid, a substance that’s necessary in order for the body to go through the Krebs cycle, one of the most important energy-production cycles in the body. 

DO NOT WEAR SUNSCREEN DURING PREGNANCY. 

If you are suffering from a major illness and you suddenly become pregnant, consider taking a vacation in a beachy location at the ocean to spend time sunbathing with exposure to the alkaline water of the ocean. Choose a location that’s not especially polluted, of course, and start with an hour of sun per day, working up by one hour daily. For example, if you have a treatment resistant kidney infection during pregnancy, you might consider getting some sunlight and seawater to open up the liver and detoxify the body through the liver and through the skin to take the load off your kidneys. Do double-voiding (where you pee and then stand up, move around for a minute and then try to pee again) if you have a urinary tract infection during pregnancy and get plenty of sunlight and seawater exposure if you have easy access to these natural resources. Sunlight exposure may help you treat pain from a kidney infection naturally during pregnancy as well. And both sunlight and seawater have a general antibiotic impact within the body through some interesting pathways that are beyond the scope of this discussion. 

The reason why I suggest sunlight and seawater exposure to cure liver disease during pregnancy is because as the kidneys increase in size to accommodate the need for increased detoxification, the liver and gallbladder often get clogged up in response to the increase in hormone levels and diet changes. Women suffer greatly as a result of the liver and gallbladder issues. The kidneys get bogged down with the extra work of detoxifying a body that’s building another body. And though the liver is normally responsible for much of the detoxification of the body, pregnancy presents special obstacles to detoxification. As a pregnant woman, if you become ill, medications must be dosed differently so as not to overtax the liver. The liver must be cleansed and blockages removed in order for a pregnant woman to feel healthy again during gestation. The full body detoxification of sunlight and seawater exposure is hard to mimic safely in a spa setting during pregnancy. Detoxifying the liver is often the key to taking the load off kidneys that are often at the crux of diseases like preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, and gestational diabetes. Drinking the Budwig smoothie in the sunlight with as much skin exposed as possible is, at least, a start, in terms of sunlight exposure to heal liver and gallbladder issues that are hijacking blood sugar levels, pancreatic function, and kidney function. 

How to Use the Budwig Smoothie During Pregnancy

Drink the Budwig Smoothie up to 3 times per day, if possible. Halve the quantity of ingredients to make a smaller batch if your stomach is too upset to consume a larger amount. If you experience a feeling of fullness that makes it hard to eat during pregnancy, consider doing the Hulda Clark Liver and Gallbladder Cleanse at least 3 times, once every 2-3 weeks, to easily remove gallstones without surgery along with bile sludge.

Other Nutritional Guidelines to Follow in Order to Heal from Major Illness During Pregnancy



Avoid all heated oils if you’ve been diagnosed with gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, kidney infection, or any other serious disease during pregnancy. Drink Budwig smoothies throughout the day with fresh fruit and raw honey and steam vegetables that are salted with Himalayan sea salt to consume for meals. 

Most pregnant women throughout the world today are severely deficient in both molecular iodine (which feeds the thyroid gland) and potassium iodide (which feeds the reproductive organs). My own personal experience with recurrent miscarriages was due to a combination of iodine deficiency and vitamin B12 deficiency. In order for iodine to work properly in a woman’s body during pregnancy, it’s vital that she begin by taking the supportive nutrients listed below for 5 days BEFORE beginning to work with Lugol’s iodine. After the first 5 days of treatment with the supportive nutrients, you’ll continue to take these nutrients, but also you’ll start administering the Lugol’s iodine. Start slowly with just 1 drop of Lugol’s iodine 2%. Administer 1 drop for up to 4 days before increasing the dose by another drop. Continue to increase the dose up to a total of at least 50 mg / 20 drops, but note that some women need up to 100 mg of Lugol’s iodine per day, especially during pregnancy. Continue to take Lugol’s iodine indefinitely. It is one of the most important nutrients you’ll need in order to produce healthy breast milk. Children who receive plenty of iodine during pregnancy are a lot healthier, happier, and they’re more intelligent than children who don’t receive iodine during pregnancy and the initial stages of growth. 

After you finish breast-feeding, give your child 1 drop of Lugol’s iodine 2% for each year of their age (2 drops for 2 years of age, 3 drops for 3 years of age, 4 drops for 4 years of age, etc.) to ensure that their immune system stays healthy.

One of the reasons why the Budwig smoothie is so powerful is because it contains nutrients that support iodine absorption. Flaxseeds also contain vitamin B17, another nutrient that has been removed from the food supply.

Take Lugol’s iodine 2% at 20 drops per day (50 mg) along with the supportive nutrients listed below along with drinking Budwig smoothies to treat autoimmune disease naturally during pregnancy, or to treat cancer naturally during pregnancy, or to overcome any major disease during pregnancy that is not responding to other treatments:

  1. Vitamin B100 Complex
  2. Vitamin B12 with Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) - Click here to read more about how to administer the vitamin B12 with Dimethylsulfoxide. Note that DMSO is FDA approved for use in pregnancy. 
  3. Zinc / Copper - 15 mg / 2 mg
  4. Magnesium Glycinate - 400- 600 mg
  5. Selenium - 200 mcg
  6. Vitamin K2 / MK-7 -200 to 300 mcg pre day (Note that the MK-4 form is not bioavailable inside the body)
  7. Sea water supplement - Administer 1 teaspoon in every 8 ounce glass of filtered drinking water to super-hydrate the body and provide the body with plenty of trace minerals. 
  8. Shilajit (optional, but recommended) - Shilajit contains a wide array of trace minerals to support iodine absorption.
