Bogdan Chugunov

Bogdan Chugunov

As a cancer survivor I passed through a lot. After the tumor was surgically removed in 2005 my life has turned upside-down. Western medicine has not provided with any solution for how to stay in remission after the surgery. A chemo and radio-nuclear treatment are parts of a treatment, not a healing one I think. A preventive medicine in American transcription means to check up cancer development progress regularly performing colonoscopy and endoscopy as often as my health insurance permits.
I flew around the globe and visited those countries/regions/compounds where statistically the mortality rate caused by a gastric cancer stayed close to zero. I stayed at such places learning everything about those folks’ daily diets and found several ingredients local people consume regularly as their regular food that I believe prevents them from developing gastrointestinal cancer. Such countries/regions are New Zealand, Brazil, Turkey, Mongolia, Uruguay.
I changed my life and business course to natural supplements and functional foods importer/distributor. Later I became a brand owner of Bee Magic and Health Republic and brought several natural remedies to USA: Manuka honey, bee propolis extracts, Shilajit, Siberian cedar sap oleoresin, beaver castoreum, maral antlers, chaga and reishi mushrooms.
I do believe such remedies indirectly prevent human mutated cells from converting into cancerous stage. I've learned a lot about Manuka Honey (living in New Zealand), now I know how to identify real Manuka honey from a fake ( my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIo7IYRuFhkGiOUxvNz4kfw
tells you a little what I mean), I can tell about common tricks nowadays mass Manuka honey manufacturers use to keep their brand “competitive” on the US market and why FDA does not control the "Manuka honey" quality.
I'm proficient in another beehive product that human civilization has known for at least 4000 years - bee propolis and I can tell about what this strange looking natural substance is.
I can touch some sort of “witchcraft” ingredients such as beaver castoreum, maral antler's powder, reishi and chaga mushrooms, cedar sap oleoresin, to use as an alternative medicine. Based on my personal experience of being in remission for 17 years, I can talk about such products professionally because I consumed them daily and for a long period of time.
I can share such knowledge acquired from my own experience with a "Guiney pig" credentials .
Finally, I pose myself as a "laboratory rat" or "a rabbit" (Guinea pig in American translation) who tests all natural remedies for healing effect on myself before recommending it to people. I do consume several supplements and functional foods daily to heal: my broken leg, colon polyps’ development suppression, better blood circulation, and soft tissue recovery after surgery or mechanical damage. Willing to share my experience , results with interested parties.
