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.”

Environmental Estrogens Contaminating Our Food

Synthetic sex hormones (Environmental Estrogens) are contaminating our food!  Now you will know why it is so hard to get your patients well without an all organic diet and my detox program. The link to the news broadcast below will shock you.  For instance, did you know…

Bisphenol A is found in most plastic food containers today. Not only is it found in plastic containers, but also in the lining of most cans. BPA is essentially a synthetic estrogen that enters the body when one consumes food or beverages out of plastic or plastic-lined containers. This is not only harmful to the male reproductive system, but has been found to also stimulate breast cancer growth in women. Knowing this, it should be of no surprise that the sperm count of the average Western male is on a steady decline as many males are becoming more and more feminine. What most people don’t know is that Bisphenol A was actually considered as the form of estrogen to be used in estrogen pills going back to the 1930s.

Everyone should detox regularly and continually on a daily basis.  Everyone needs my F.I.G.H.T. program! It is not just the Lead and Mercury; it is toxins like Bisphenol A but most people have no idea how they get these toxins!  Bisphenol A is what made all the lean brown Agouti mice turn yellow and become obese and diabetic for all time in Randy Jirtle’s  research (Duke) covered by PBS (Nova) as “Ghost In Your Genes” that causes the epigenetic change overnight.

There is defective methylation to handle all toxins, which is why BIOEN’R-G’Y C comes with Trimethylglycine and Methylsulfonomethane, as a true vitamin C delivery system to help fight this Bisphenol A toxin induced need for more methylation support. So get sublingual Beyond B12 and have methyl cobalamin delivered sublingually instead of having to give B12 IM, as oral B12 is about 1-2 % absorbed and we must help our loved ones and patients F.I.G.H.T. back.

Everyone has 10,000 times more phthalates today than was present just 10 years ago. Watch this video and then watch it again and learn my F.I.G.H.T. program, as you and your patients need to feel as good as I do and I know how toxic you are unless you are using my power drink and zeolite!

Dr. Gordon’s Comments – germline variants & sialic acid in autoimmunity

A relatively common defect involving Sialic acid –sets the stage for patients to develop autoimmune related illnesses! I continue to discuss my FIGHT program, as the best way to approach any autoimmune related condition.www.gordonresearch.com

Possibly, in the future, with evidence this strong, genetic testing for this variant could lead to patients being advised to go on my FIGHT program before they have the symptoms of one of the over 100 different autoimmune related conditions. The best statistics today indicate that over 40% of us have difficulty with either dairy or gluten. So, before we start seeing auto-antibodies to our tissues, those with this variant might want to eliminate those foods and do the rest of the FIGHT program too.

Abstract
Sialic acid acetylesterase (SIAE) is an enzyme that negatively regulates B lymphocyte antigen receptor signalling and is required for the maintenance of immunological tolerance in mice. Heterozygous loss-of-function germline rare variants and a homozygous defective polymorphic variant of SIAE were identified in 24/923 subjects of European origin with relatively common autoimmune disorders and in 2/648 controls of European origin. All heterozygous loss-of-function SIAE mutations tested were capable of functioning in a dominant negative manner. A homozygous secretion-defective polymorphic variant of SIAE was catalytically active, lacked the ability to function in a dominant negative manner, and was seen in eight autoimmune subjects but in no control subjects. The odds ratio for inheriting defective SIAE alleles was 8.6 in all autoimmune subjects, 8.3 in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis, and 7.9 in subjects with type I diabetes. Functionally defective SIAE rare and polymorphic variants represent a strong genetic link to susceptibility in relatively common human autoimmune disorders.

Truvia Reactions

Excerpt:

Dear Sherrel,

Thank you for your note.  As I told you by phone we have been getting 
quite a few reactions from Truvia.  Pure stevia is fine but Truvia is 
made by Coke, and has chemicals.  It is sweetened with Erythritol and 
has added an ingredient of stevia only.  In fact, I did an expose on 
it which was shown in France.   You can be sure if Coke and Pepsi 
have anything to do with sweeteners we have no way of assuring 
safety.  Here is an email I wrote about 
it:  http://www.mpwhi.com/health_problems_and_truvia.htm and an 
investigation by Arthur Evangelista who use to work for the FDA.

Also, what worries me is aspartame and MSG are hidden in artificial 
and natural flavors.  As a heart patient you have  to be absolutely 
sure you never get aspartame.  It even damages the cardiac conduction 
system and causes sudden death: 
http://www.wnho.net/aspartame_and_arrhythmias.htm and 
http://www.wnho.net/aspartame_msg_scd.htm  They know that aspartame 
is addictive and sells lots of pop.  So unless somebody analyzes 
Truvia we have no idea what is causing people to have all these 
reactions from it.  The reactions you describe are exactly like 
aspartame which causes chemical hypersensitization.  One man got off 
it and got well, and then later was given a cookie sweetened with 
aspartame and had tachycardia, fast heart rate, so bad they had to 
stop his heart to save his life.

I would stay away from artificial sweeteners.  Just Like Sugar is 
okay because its food and not additives, just chicory used 70 years 
to improve the health of diabetics.  There have been no reactions to 
it or complaints.  Stevia that you get from a health food store is 
fine as long as it does not  contain additives.  In Brazil they even 
add aspartame to it.  Until aspartame is removed from planet earth we 
can’t be sure where its hidden.  Somebody needs to analyze Truvia 
because there are far too many complaints.  I’m glad you have not 
knowingly used aspartame.  Below my signature is the Aspartame 
Resource Guide with detox and other information.  The knowledge will 
prove useful to you.  The detox is very helpful.

Vitamin D deficiency is why you get flu

Full article: http://www.foodconsumer.org/newsite/Nutrition/Vitamins/vitamin_d_deficiency_is_why_you_get_flu_0703100554.html

Excerpt:

A new study led by researchers at the University of Copenhagen has confirmed that vitamin D plays an important role in activating immune defenses against infectious diseases like flu.

Vitamin D deficiency has already been linked to a wide spectrum of diseases including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, depression, autoimmune disease and many others.

The study published in the latest edition of Nature Immunology discovers that activation of T-cells to fight infections needs definite help from vitamin D.

Carsten Geisler and colleagues, study authors, explained the role vitamin D plays in the immune responses as follows.

First when the naive T cell recognizes foreign invaders like bacteria or viruses with T cell receptor (TCR), it sends activating signals (1) to the vitamin D receptor gene. The VDR gene then starts producing DVR protein, which binds vitamin D in the T cell (3) and becomes activated. Then the vitamin D bound and activated DVR gets into the cell nucleus and activates the gene for PLC-gamma1 (5), which in turn produces PLC-gamma1 protein (6) and “the T cells can get started”.

A Tale of Two Mice – Epigenetic Research

The epigenetic research is explained very well in the attached text from a video clip that I have put on the www.gordonresearch.com website. The pictures bring this to life and will be very educational to any audience but the conclusion from the video clip is below.

A Tale of Two Mice
In this audio slide show, Dr. Dana Dolinoy of Duke University explains the role that the epigenome, a sort of second genome, plays in regulating the expression of our genes. As Dolinoy notes, we can no longer say with certainty whether genetics or the environment have a greater impact on our health, because the two are inextricably linked through the epigenome.

Bisphenol A – Comments from Dr. Gordon and Research Paper

Toxins work in many ways. We can now better understand the causes behind our epidemic of obesity and diabetes and impaired suboptimal health, as a nation. The attached research will show that BPA (BISPHENOL A) is worse than any of us realized yet the lie goes on and, until recently, FDA still insisted it and many other toxins are perfectly safe. 

Read this from Harvard and NIH and I hope that this knowledge will start you on the road to lifelong detoxification. We are all living longer, but not better, unless you start to detox daily for life. This is just one of the many toxins that are preventing you and your patients from enjoying optimal health. It is behind the EPIGENETIC changes that impair methylation, as documented by Randy Jirtle at Duke that shows the obesity and diabetes that starts when Agouti mice are exposed to BPA and continues forever in their offspring unless you aggressively provide methylation support.

So you need all the CH3 ( Methyl) support  you can get and  I have built into Beyond B12  three forms of Folic acid along with methyl cobalamin.  Also the world’s most advanced Vitamin C delivery system BioEn’R-G’y C provides additional methylation support with its MSM and TMG (Trimethylglycine).
     
These are  just some of the reasons my FIGHT program so far helps most patients even when other nutrient based programs had failed. The devil is in the details and this research paper should make you wake up to the fact that you have this and phthalates in heavy amounts in you and your patients and your children born and yet to be born. It is too late to escape so plan to start Zeolite, high dose C and D and Fiber with MACA and Organic Greens based treatment that really works.  Why not try my “Power Drink” approach using those ingredients and add one ZeoGold premeasured dose in water for a month then decide if it is worth it to you to feel and function that much better!  Nothing works optimally until we neutralize the toxins including mercury and lead and all of the organic toxins starting with BISPHENOL A.

Attached is entire paper on In vitro molecular mechanisms of bisphenol A action.

Excerpt:

Bisphenol A (BPA, 2,2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) propane; CAS# 80-05-7) is a chemical used primarily in the manufacture of polycarbonate plastic, epoxy resins and as a non-polymer additive to other plastics. Recent evidence has demonstrated that human and wildlife populations are exposed to levels of BPA which cause adverse reproductive and developmental effects in a number of different wildlife species and laboratory animal models. However, there are major uncertainties surrounding the spectrum of BPA’s mechanisms of action, the tissue-specific impacts of exposures, and the critical windows of susceptibility during which target tissues are sensitive to BPA exposures. As a foundation to address some of those uncertainties, this review was prepared by the “In vitro” expert sub-panel assembled during the “Bisphenol A: An Examination of the Relevance of Ecological, In vitro and Laboratory Animal Studies for Assessing Risks to Human Health” workshop held in Chapel Hill, NC, Nov 28-29, 2006. 

The specific charge of this expert panel was to review and assess the strength of the published literature pertaining to the mechanisms of BPA action. 

However, the primary endocrine disrupting activities of BPA extend beyond its ability to mimic, enhance or inhibit the activity of endogenous estrogens and/or disrupt estrogen nuclear hormone receptor action, and include the following: effects upon the androgen systems [22–29]; disruption of thyroid hormone function [30–40]; diverse influences on development, differentiation and function of the central nervous system [40–46]; and influences on the immune system [21,47–65]. There is additional clear evidence for BPA to directly impact intracellular signal transduction pathways through mechanisms independent of the transactivational activity of nuclear hormone receptors [43,46,66–79]. Secondary metabolic and pharmacokinetic actions of BPA that impact its bioavailability and bioavailability of endogenous steroid hormones have also been described.

Curcumin: the Indian solid gold

Cancer therapies should include high quality absorbable curcumin, as it provides the same effects as standard chemo does!

Curcumin has been shown to exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer activities and thus has a potential against various malignant diseases, diabetes, allergies, arthritis, Alzheimer’s disease, and other chronic illnesses.

These effects are mediated through the regulation of various transcription factors, growth factors, inflammatory cytokines, protein kinesis, and other enzymes. Curcumin exhibits activities similar to recently discovered tumor necrosis factor blockers (e.g., HUMIRA, REMICADE, and ENBREL), a vascular endothelial cell growth factor blocker (e.g., AVASTIN), human epidermal growth factor receptor blockers (e.g., ERBITUX, ERLOTINIB, and GEFTINIB), and a HER2 blocker (e.g., HERCEPTIN).

Considering the recent scientific bandwagon that multi-targeted therapy is better than mono-targeted therapy for most diseases, curcumin can be considered an ideal “Spice for Life”.

Excerpt:

Turmeric, derived from the plant Curcuma longa, is a gold-colored spice commonly used in the Indian subcontinent, not only for health care but also for the preservation of food and as a yellow dye for textiles. Curcumin, which gives the yellow color to turmeric, was first isolated almost two centuries ago, and its structure as diferuloylmethane was determined in 1910. Since the time of Ayurveda (1900 Bc) numerous therapeutic activities have been assigned to turmeric for a wide variety of diseases and conditions, including those of the skin, pulmonary, and gastrointestinal systems, aches, pains, wounds, sprains, and liver disorders. Extensive research within the last half century has proven that most of these activities, once associated with turmeric, are due to curcumin. Curcumin has been shown to exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer activities and thus has a potential against various malignant diseases, diabetes, allergies, arthritis, Alzheimer’s disease, and other chronic illnesses. These effects are mediated through the regulation of various transcription factors, growth factors, inflammatory cytokines, protein kinases, and other enzymes. Curcumin exhibits activities similar to recently discovered tumor necrosis factor blockers (e.g., HUMIRA, REMICADE, and ENBREL), a vascular endothelial cell growth factor blocker (e.g., AVASTIN), human epidermal growth factor receptor blockers (e.g., ERBITUX, ERLOTINIB, and GEFTINIB), and a HER2 blocker (e.g., HERCEPTIN). Considering the recent scientific bandwagon that multitargeted therapy is better than monotargeted therapy for most diseases, curcumin can be considered an ideal “Spice for Life”.

Dr. Andrew Weil (and Dr. Gordon) on Vitamin D

Linda’s comments:  I would NEVER be without my D-3….This was part of the problems I had with so many Cancers…My D-3 levels were in the toilet….Just a wakeUP call, you don’t get enough VitD from the sun or the toxic MILK you drink either….I take 15 thousand units daily and sometimes more.  When in doubt have your doctor run a blood test on you…while you are add it get your B12 and Magnesium levels checked.

Vitamin D is now essential to lower colon and breast cancer. And short term high dose Vitamin A for infections saves lives. Dr Weil finds Vitamin D long-term use for adults is TOTALLY SAFE at 2000 units a day. The Counsel for Responsible Nutrition believes it is totally safe at 10,000 units a day for adults but what about short term use in massive amounts like 50-100,000 for acute infections. This knowledge has almost been ignored and could have become lost. 

My friend Dr Carl Reich MD in Canada was famous for treating ASTHMA and eliminating frequent hospitalizations in tough cases. He was using up to 50,000 units a week!  Of course they took his license but he changed the lives of nearly 10,000 patients! So it may be a long time until we fully appreciate the medical applications of aggressive Vitamin D therapy.

Vitamin A for treatment of most infections is safe and totally underutilized due to ignorance by medical profession. In the same vein as changing attitudes toward high dose vitamin D there is need to learn more about Vitamin A. The World Health Organization recommends the injections of children with 250,000 units of Vitamin A. This treatment is proven to save children’s lives daily around the world but long term use can affect bone growth so no one uses this fantastically effective therapy proving that a little knowledge is dangerous. No serious side effect of high dose for 5 days therapy up to 500,000 units a day for adults has been reported.

But with a few reports of relatively minor side effects related to long term use nothing serious with the 5 day use of high dose vitamin A is documented other than some increase in intracranial pressure leading to some headaches in perhaps 1-3% of patients but with dramatic recovery from infections. 

So hopefully one day we will realize that the “side effects” incurred with nutritional therapy are rather benign. There are no reported deaths in the USA in 2008 from nutritional supplements yet those who become knowledgeable in Orthomolecular Medicine, as I am, have to be prepared for criticism from less enlightened colleagues who do not understand benefit to risk calculations. They think nothing of their being at least the 4th leading cause of death in the US but are quick to criticize those who use therapies that they know nothing about but which have tremendous potential for really helping patients!!

Excerpt:

I am raising my recommendation of 1,000 IU of vitamin D per day to 2,000 IU per day. Since 2005, when I raised it from 400 to 1,000 IU, clinical evidence has been accumulating to suggest that a higher dose is more appropriate to help maintain optimum health.
We have known for many years that we need vitamin D to facilitate calcium absorption and promote bone mineralization. But newer research has shown that we also need it for protection against a number of serious diseases. In recent years, scientists have discovered that it may help to prevent several cancers, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, psoriasis, diabetes, psychosis, and respiratory infections including colds and flu. 

To focus particularly on cancer prevention, two recent meta-analyses (in which data from multiple studies is combined) conducted by the Moores Cancer Center at the University of California at San Diego and colleagues suggested that raising blood levels of vitamin D could prevent one-half of the cases of breast cancer and two-thirds of the cases of colorectal cancer in the U.S. Discussing the breast cancer analysis, study author Cedric Garland, Dr.P.H., stated that “The serum level associated with a 50 percent reduction in risk could be maintained by taking 2,000 international units of vitamin D3 daily plus, when the weather permits, spending 10 to 15 minutes a day in the sun.” A 50 percent reduction in breast cancer deaths would have saved the lives of more than 20,000 American women in 2009.
