DETOX with M.I.C.E (Magnetically Induced Cellular Exercise)

 

The dust and smoke from the collapsed World Trade Center towers, and the fires that burned continuously for three months, consisted of more than 2,500 contaminants.  50% non-fibrous material and construction debris; 40% glass and other fibers; 9.2% cellulose; and 0.8% asbestos, and toxic amounts of crystalline silica, lead, mercury, cadmium, dioxin and PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) which are known carcinogens and can also trigger kidney, heart, liver and nervous system deterioration.   

According to two studies published in the 10th anniversary edition of the prestigious medical journal The Lancet, firefighters exposed to the World Trade Center attacks are nineteen percent more likely to get cancer.  They and other 9/11 rescue workers are also suffering higher pulmonary, respiratory and stress related illnesses in comparison with the general population. 

Of 27,000 rescue workers who are voluntarily enrolled in a federally funded monitoring program, 28 percent have developed asthma, 42 percent chronic sinusitis, and 39 percent have developed gastroesophageal reflux disease.

 

M.I.C.E. (Magnetically Induced Cellular Exercise) utilizing pulsed electro-magnetic frequency therapy, re-energizes damaged cells by inducing electrical changes within the cell that restore it to its normal healthy state. 

 

Cellular Exercise – Induces Autophagy

 

Autophagy is an internal “housekeeping” and recycling system that degrades damaged or unwanted organelles and proteins in a cell, and produces energy. This process has been shown to protect against cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, infections, diabetes, and more.   The failure of autophagy is thought to be one of the main reasons for the accumulation of cell damage and aging.  

 

 

 

PEMF – PMT100

 

Electricity and magnetism are vital to life.  A deficiency of magnetism in the body is like the body running out of oxygen.  With the loss of over 90% of the earth’s electromagnetic field, almost everyone today is operating at far below their true potential. Magnetic therapy restores what earth changes have depleted, the vital electromagnetic energy needed to produce optimal health. 

 

In clinical studies PEMF has been shown to reduce pain and inflammation, increase cellular energy production and detoxification, stimulate the body’s own stem cell production, heal non-union bone fractures.  PEMF is used to treat various cancers through facilitation of cellular alkalinity and apoptosis.  PEMF demonstrates amazing results in the treatment of mood disorders and depression, as well other neurological disorders like Autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease. 

 

PEMF has even been documented to completely reverse a case of
advanced coronary artery disease!

 

PEMF repairs damaged and diseased tissue, repairs torn tendons and fractured bones, and enhances the synthesis of protein in the cells.  Pain, swelling, inflammation, and irritation are reduced while endorphins, serotonin, and the body’s natural healing processes are stimulated.  Nerves regenerate.  Range of motion is increased.  Metabolism is improved.  Nitric oxide is produced which dilates the blood vessels.  The formation and development of new cells, known as cytogenesis, is stimulated.  Edema, or swelling, is reduced.

 

PEMF therapy promotes the same responses and benefits that physical exercise produces, without the stress and strain upon your muscles and bone.  PEMF is Magnetically Induced Cellular Exercise or M.I.C.E.   It re-energizes damaged cells by inducing electrical changes within the cell that restore it to its normal healthy state.  Because of this, cellular metabolism is boosted, blood cells are regenerated, circulation is improved and oxygen carrying capacity is increased.   

 

Ultimately, with PEMF and M.I.C.E. the immune system becomes healthier as the vital organs such as the liver, kidneys and colon are able to rid themselves of impurities thus detoxifying the body.  PEMF Therapy can reduce pain and improve the quality of your life by allowing your body to function as it was designed to do.”

Lead Poisoning – With Comments from Linda & Dr. Gordon http://lymebook.com/fight/lead-poisoning-with-comments-from-linda-dr-gordon/ http://lymebook.com/fight/lead-poisoning-with-comments-from-linda-dr-gordon/#respond Fri, 26 Aug 2011 05:35:57 +0000 http://lymebook.com/fight/?p=2653 Linda’s comments:  ListenUP and read this information….it is vital for all to understand how TOXIC OUR WORLD IS…..Everyone is exposed to lead today, however, we can fix it for the most part… 
Share this with your children and grandchildren….
Dr. Gordon’s comments:
Lead poisoning again is on the front page of the New York Times yet no one understands this fact: there is no safe level in children. Why would anyone allow any woman to go through pregnancy without at least some of my detox program, power drink, oral chelation like Beyond Chelation-Improved or Zeolite? Why not all three, as no one approach can deal with all the toxins we find in every newborn today and it all comes FROM THE MOM.

Please understand we all have too much lead and during pregnancy the body transfers the mother’s lead and other toxins to the baby and also concentrates it SIX fold.

How can we continue to ignore this epidemic when we have safe affordable answers? Maybe you can at least get 8 gm of BIOEN’R-G’Y C into pregnant women daily, as that too is an oral chelator. But let’s do something about the TEN AMERICANS report bywww.ewg.org that proves every child born is loaded with carcinogens, neurotoxins and endocrine disruptors.

The parents save $3000 or so by not going on appropriate nutritional products for detox during the entire pregnancy, but best results will be when starting 1 year before the pregnancy and treat the dad too! Or they pay $250,000- 500,000 in extraordinary health care costs to deal with what could have been prevented with a little rational family planning.

“No blood lead level has been found to be safe for a child,” Dr. Mary Jean Brown, chief of the lead poisoning prevention branch of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said in an interview last week.

Excerpt:
MENGXI VILLAGE, China — On a chilly evening early last month, a mob of more than 200 people gathered in this tiny eastern China village at the entrance to the Zhejiang Haijiu Battery Factory, a maker of lead-acid batteries for motorcycles and electric bikes. They shouldered through an outer brick wall, swept into the factory office and, in an outpouring of pure fury, smashed the cabinets, desks and computers inside.

Epigenetics and Dr. Gordon’s commentary on Time Magazine Article http://lymebook.com/fight/epigenetics-and-dr-gordons-commentary-on-time-magazine-article/ http://lymebook.com/fight/epigenetics-and-dr-gordons-commentary-on-time-magazine-article/#respond Sat, 20 Nov 2010 06:49:28 +0000 http://lymebook.com/fight/?p=1906 The cover of last week’s Time magazine is a pregnant woman and the cover story is about newly recognized facts about Epigenetics that reveals the lifelong influence on health of everyone from the 9 month intrauterine environment.

They report that the influence on heart disease, obesity, mental illness, IQ, etc is far greater than has ever been appreciated before. Now if you then go to Google and type in the words Ten Americans you will see a video paid for by concerned citizens atwww.ewg.org that measured and levels of neurotoxins, carcinogens and endocrine disruptors in ten babies selected at random for across the USA. There were none that were clean.  Everyone averages 6 times the levels of these toxins that are present in the parents. This should make you really want to study what is optimal nutritional support for your pregnant patients and that to my thinking today that must include Beyond Chelation-Improved and Beyond B12, as you really want all three forms of folic acid if you want really healthy babies, as well as the DHA/EPA found in BC-I. We all need continual detoxification today to deal with the lead and mercury found in everything tested today.

But this new article strongly suggests you learn why I love Beyond Fiber. First of all no one should ever be on any serious detox program without this fiber to trap all toxins that the liver dumps into the intestine and prevent enterohepatic uptake of the very toxins you are hoping to clear out. But in addition the main source of this unique fiber product, which also has artichoke and EDTA, is STABILIZED RICE BRAN, which is one of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet. It includes liberal amounts of B vitamins including Inositol, which we find in this report offers addition potential benefits to the rapidly growing fetus.

Excerpt:

Time Magazine: “Fetal Origins: How the First Nine Months Shape the Rest of Your Life”, By Annie Murphy Paul Wednesday, Sep. 22, 2010 

http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,2020815,00.html

Of course, no woman who is pregnant today can escape hearing the message that what she does affects her fetus. She hears it at doctor’s appointments, sees it in the pregnancy guidebooks: Do eat this, don’t drink that, be vigilant but never stressed. Expectant mothers could be forgiven for feeling that pregnancy is just a nine-month slog, full of guilt and devoid of pleasure, and this research threatened to add to the burden. 

But the scientists I met weren’t full of dire warnings but of the excitement of discovery — and the hope that their discoveries would make a positive difference. Research on fetal origins is prompting a revolutionary shift in thinking about where human qualities come from and when they begin to develop. It’s turning pregnancy into a scientific frontier: the National Institutes of Health embarked last year on a multidecade study that will examine its subjects before they’re born. And it makes the womb a promising target for prevention, raising hopes of conquering public-health scourges like obesity and heart disease through interventions before birth. 

Folic acid/inositol combo may be better at preventing birth defects

Top 5 Suspected Everyday Carcinogens http://lymebook.com/fight/top-5-suspected-everyday-carcinogens/ http://lymebook.com/fight/top-5-suspected-everyday-carcinogens/#respond Mon, 27 Sep 2010 16:30:25 +0000 http://lymebook.com/fight/?p=1681 Full article: a new report 

Excerpt:

Some carcinogens you already know and fear: cigarettes, asbestos, smoked meat.

But what about the ones you’ve never even heard of? That’s the crux of a new report from theAmerican Cancer Society (ACS), which rounds up 20 “suspected carcinogens” the organization would like to see studied more extensively.

Of course, that research, if it happens, will come after the chemicals, ingredients — and even lifestyle choices — are already embedded into the bedrock of our 24/7 economy.

“The objectives of this report are to identify research gaps and needs for 20 agents prioritized for review based on evidence of widespread human exposures and potential carcinogenicity in animals or humans,” Elizabeth Ward, the co-author of the report, said. 

So just what are these potential cancer causers lurking in our everyday environs? Surge Desk runs down five (not so awesome) favorites.

1. Styrene

Styrene, and its chemical compound colleague styrene-7,-8-oxide, threaten to be a stoner’s worst nightmare. Although only weakly linked to cancer in humans, there’s enough evidence in animal studies to earn the compounds a spot in the top 20.

Where will you find it? Cigarettes, marijuana and leeching into your midnight munchies via foam food packaging. 

How can you avoid it? If you eat, this is one urine test you’re doomed to fail. Styrene was detected in the urine of 87 percent of study participants during a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention trial last year.

F.I.G.H.T. Environmental Toxins and Epigenetic Changes for Optimum Healing and Anti-aging in Every Patient http://lymebook.com/fight/fight-environmental-toxins-and-epigenetic-changes-for-optimum-healing-and-anti-aging-in-every-patient/ http://lymebook.com/fight/fight-environmental-toxins-and-epigenetic-changes-for-optimum-healing-and-anti-aging-in-every-patient/#comments Wed, 10 Jun 2009 23:14:40 +0000 http://lymebook.com/fight/?p=39 These are my thoughts on how to more effectively help EVERY patient better by using my F.I.G.H.T. for Health Program. F.I.G.H.T. is an acronym that stands for: Food allergies/sensitivities and leaky gut syndrome, Infections and pathogens, Genetics and epigenetics, and methylation issues needed for detoxing, Heavy Metals and Hormones, and Toxins that every person is exposed to everyday, everywhere. Regardless of the condition or disease your patient is suffering from, you will have better results by addressing each of these categories in every patient.

I also want to help move us into a new preventative medicine and anti-aging testing system developed by I-M Heath. This unique program measures up to 37 different biomarkers in a patient, resulting in an overall personal biological score that is presented ‘visually’ on a body-map. This helps the patient to “see” their current condition (how slowly or quickly they are aging) and allows the doctor and patient to work together on a holistic program that is supported by published clinical science. visualisations-female

FOOD

With Food it is hard to identify all sensitivity reactions so, at minimum, serious rotation is advised but building a healthy gut flora is vital or we become sensitive to other foods anyway. Since few want to be told to eliminate foods, we can encourage them to eat foods that are in the books by Peter D’Adamo ND, author of Eat Right For You Blood Type and Live Right For Your Blood Type.er4yt
For example, if you are blood type A, you want to eat a largely vegetarian diet, and if you are blood type O you’ll do better with meat-based diet like Atkins; if you are B or AB you are more in the middle of these. The food issue is never resolved adequately with any one test available, so some will rely on strict avoidance of known foods like corn, soy, wheat, and dairy.

Others can learn to eliminate some foods by counting their pulse before and after eating single foods, as described by Dr. Arthur F. Coca, the Chief of Allergy at Columbia, in his book The Pulse Test (available through Amazon.com for about $ 15).

We could do some food sensitivity testing using methods like ALCAT or Elisa testing for food reactions, as usually there will be some food sensitivity blunting the healing response we need.  But since leaky gut is unavoidable with the GMO soy and corn in everyone’s diet providing a pesticide effect in our intestines and altering our flora. I place anyone hoping to have high health on a daily probiotic for life but this will not work optimally without Inuflora, a food derived from the Jerusalem artichoke that is in  Beyond Fiber™ which provides the ultimate PREBIOTIC. This is NOT FOS. This is a huge molecule that alone lowers Candida counts over just a few months time, ensuring healthy flora to flourish while harmful pathogens are choked out.

Beyond Fiber™ is part of my POWER DRINK which I create by adding the following FOUR main ingredients to juices:

1) Beyond Fiber™
2) MACA powder™
3) Dr Gordon’s Advanced Green Powder™
4) BioE’nR-G’y C™

Amounts required are around 1 tsp of each ingredient at least once a day; but some will do better with bid building up slowly. Start with an even ½ tsp of these once a day, as we MUST rebuild the flora for all this to work optimally.

The Power Drink is best sipped over 2 hours ideally bid so you need well tolerated, neutral PH forms of Vitamin C with methylation support like TMG AND MSM, as found in BioEn’R-G’y C™ (or Vitality C). BioE’nR-G’y C™ is key to recovery of all patients; I like about 4 tsp a day giving 16 gms of ascorbic acid. But this must be taken with a quality acidophilus, ideally for life. I am using Kyodophilus or UAS Probioplex DDS caps.

INFECTIONS

Infections are hard to adequately handle unless you routinely offer a short series of 3-6 UVB and OZONE treatments over a couple of days or 2 weeks.  The alternative is to use 50-80+ gm IV ascorbic acid drips ideally followed the same day with HBO treatments.  This goes to H202.

Also, there are reasons to look on my website www.gordonresearch.com under INFECTIONS, and learn how to use natural things like ACS 200 and Immune support and short courses of antibiotics like Azithromycin, or even a week or so of oral Alinia. All of this is needed, as we try to lower the total pathogen load. I do that without spending a fortune trying to identify all the pathogens, as literature shows we all carry them.  Chlamydia is just the tip of the iceberg and we all will have to deal with some CMV and Mycoplasma etc.

We know there is infection and generally we do not need to spend $5k plus with Garth Nicolson’s lab in Huntington Beach or others to attach some name to this pathogen burden. We can safely assume that some stealth organisms are present and the body is not adequately handling them. I have heard of patients using 1 ounce of ACS 200 a day (150 sprays in divided doses) for over a year. Although slowly improving, the infections are still not being hit hard enough so we may need more aggressive oxidative therapies like 100 GM IV ascorbic acid or UVB/Ozone. We just know we need something oxidative, even HBO with high dose IV Ascorbic Acid followed by HBO almost at the same time, which is another way to lower total body burden of pathogens.

Also, look at things such as high-dose Garlic like Kyolic (which some can take and others will not touch) and help the immune system with short-term high dose Vit A, 5-8 days of ½ million units a day. Nutrisorb-A is a liquid form providing 10,000 units per drop.

I find that most patients are not holding their pathogens under adequate control so I help support their immune function. My program uses Longevity Plus© products that are truly comprehensive and a bargain since no immune support product provides the comprehensive coverage found in their Immuni-T™ products. The Immuni-T2™ is primarily for acute infections and the Immuni-T3™ is designed more for chronic issues including cancer. I recommend taking both for 1-3 months starting with 2 tid of each for 2 to 3 weeks then 2 bid for a couple months or longer.  This will help your patients deal with the infection aspect of F.I.G.H.T.

GENETICS

Many labs offer gene testing today and the price will come down and accuracy will increase. But I am confident there will be issues around things like MTHFR and METHYLATION so that helps explain why some patients cannot get optimal response without addressing the need for methylation support.

So I advise all 3 forms of Folic Acid and sublingual B12. Preferably both adult males and females will receive H.R.T Plus (Herbal Remedy from Thailand), which provides Estrogen receptor treatment with the amazing herb Pueraria mirifica. This does many things like protecting against bone loss. Combined with my total program for osteoporosis including Beyond Bone Defense™ and Beyond Chelation Improved™, this is a vital step in allowing us to live long and still have soft arteries and hard bones, even when you are 90.

Ideally, we need to move into anti-aging medicine and select some patient to use as a test case, for learning how to use International Anti-aging Systems (IAS) new program that Phil Mican helped develop with the help of Ward Dean. So go to the I-M Health website and ask for a test sample to learn how to analyze your patients BIOLOGICAL AGE. That is a great way to show over the next 6-12 months that we are getting real benefits. The program will show your patient who complies with all of this getting younger, as the red dots it uses to highlight problem areas will start to become green over time. This is a great way to increase compliance, as the report highlights areas of concern that over the coming years we will see improve!

If we stick to my F.I.G.H.T. concept we can to this without using genetic testing because, for example, the Agouti mice research shows we have Epigenetic changes due to environmental toxins. This research by Randy Jirtle at Duke helps explains today’s epidemic of Obesity and Diabetes due to things like BISPHENOL A. You can safely assume most people have been exposed to BISPHENOL A and that has caused some of these epigenetic changes like methylation defects.

So using the BioE’nR-G’y C™ with TMG AND MSM, at least 1 slightly heaping tsp 2-4 times a day i.e.  taking 8-16 gm a day, preferably with all the other three ingredients found in my Power Drink for optimal results. Nothing beats the Beyond Fiber formula for lowering toxins particularly when taken along with ACZ Nano. It seems that the Zeolite formula is helping move some of the toxins that even Beyond Chelation Improved™ and Heavy Detox™, and hi-dose vitamin C with Fiber, and sweating are moving around, but we need lots of assistance to usher all of these toxins out of the body!

HEAVY METALS
HORMONES

F.I.G.H.T. means lots of detoxing is MANDATORY and that means more than a year of intensive work, which can never be discontinued, as we continue to eat, drink and breathe in toxins. This detox can be helped with homeopathics for drainage. Consider, for example, HEEL has their DETOX kit and I often add 10 gtts of each of the three bottles to each glass of my Power Drink.

For heavy metals the goal is get them as low as possible. Lead is in the bones of everyone, and it is at 1000+ times greater quantities than was present 400 years ago. Bones take 15 years to remodel, so I recommend some of my ‘short’ or push Calcium EDTA IV’s weekly to start and following ideally with IV MYERS.. After 20 or so, switch to perhaps monthly for another 20-30 or more. But always with the full Oral Chelation Program which includes my Beyond Chelation Improved™ plus Power Drink.

For more in-depth information on the causes of universal toxicity and affordable, natural solutions to ‘getting the lead out’, check out my latest book ‘Detox with Oral Chelation: Protecting Yourself from Lead, Mercury & Other Environmental Toxins’.doc-cover-small1

And, of course, ideally patients can join a gym and sweat in the sauna or steam room, or get their own FIR sauna. They now have the new portable versions (that you sit in with head out) costing less than $500. Sweating frequently is crucial as this is an ideal way for Mercury and many other toxins to get out.

For Hormones, I use topical Testosterone – Progesterone Chrysin 150-5-200 per cc, the full 15 years.

TOXINS

So we still must deal with the T for toxins. To prove to patients that they need this you might use US BIOTEK lab and get their urine test for 5 toxins and have the interpretation of their $120- $140 urine stick test interpreted by Mark Schauss. They will test for Phthalates, styrene, benzene, toluene, etc. This is useful so that patients know they are not wasting their time and money on all this detoxing.

For those patients who can afford the expense, it is beneficial to spend the $4900 and send the 20 vials of blood to Mt Sinai School of Medicine to get all 240 toxins measured.  See the excellent Environmental Working Group web site to learn more about that blood test for toxins. Bill Moyers tested and it revealed that in spite of eating and living organically, he too is loaded with endocrine disruptors, carcinogens and neurotoxins and he has lived all organic for years.

I hope what I have written here will prove useful in your practices. If we can broaden our approach to every patient by utilizing the F.I.G.H.T. concept and covering even more issues, you will be getting better results in all patients.
