Linda’s comments: Well I would blow their boxers off…I take 16,000 to 24,000 daily of the BioEnergyC from www.longevityplus.com My dogs get a minimum of 4000 mg in a one gallon water bowl….the five gallon water dish gets 20,000 mgs. I quiet frankly sick and tired of hearing the NIH and FDA and the pharmaceuticals squawk about taking high dosing of VitC….poor fellows, don’t have a clue…

Dr. Gordon’s Comments:

Everything  you think you know about vitamin C is probably more than 50% wrong  and, if you relied on this official appearing document re vitamin C, you would not use it.  The attached document is from NIH so it gives you all the negative but you must know all that too.

But I am providing you with the contrary opinion. You will be amazed at how the right hand of the government does not know what the left hand is doing! FDA has approved vitamin C for treating one type of cancer!  That opens the door to great speculation and further research about non-toxic cancer therapies and I am excited to incorporate into this program the power of PEMF, which makes each cell ALKALINE and restores transmembrane potential. So I believe I have two or more non-toxic approaches that need to be looked at concurrently and incorporated with my FIGHT program for long term success.

Using IV VIT C with  my FIGHT program and PEMF ( Pulsed Electromagnetic  Field Therapy )  you will see and feel results  with PEMF on top of my FIGHT program, I am clearly  getting younger!

There are other ways to enhance the effectiveness of high dose IV Vitamin C in treating cancer and using it alone I do not find that IV VIT C is very often curative but it almost always helps and buys time for other therapies to be instituted.

Remember   we all need to improve outcomes, as our patients pay cash. We are not endowed by Government funds like our brethren using their chemo/radiation.  They are generally covered and   just bill the system and are ok no matter what the outcome.  We are NOT OK unless we turn out superior results and have data that shows we can beat mainstream outcomes hands down.

This NIH authoritative appearing well– referenced document would make anyone think oral low dose (2000 mg and under) Vitamin C is dangerous and causes cancer and heart disease. It appears to be fully referenced up to date through November 2009 yet it is missing an important point; somehow IV vitamin C WITH K-3 is now FDA approved for treating bladder cancer!! After all if anyone knew that vitamin C could be FDA approved for one cancer then some doctors would have some interest in trying it in other cancers just like the oncologists do everyday.

How can I and many of our colleagues be successfully using oral and IV vitamin C to keep Cancer patients alive far longer than their oncologists predict and still be considered by mainstream oncologists to be so wrong?  They tell their patients to never use vitamin C!

This report even has recommendations about not exceeding what they have established now, as their safe upper limit of oral vitamin C at 2000 mg MAX. Yet it is hard for them to ignore entirely what we are doing with cancer so they throw in some words to try to sound plausible with their otherwise very negative review of vitamin C. This is BURIED in the attached report but of course they have their numbers about what the maximum serum levels achievable with oral vitamin c vs.  the high serum levels achievable with IV Vitamin C. Those that are interested to get to the bottom of this mystery will find that vitamin c deserves your serious attention, IV and ORAL because there is always the rest of the story.

This is just one paragraph from many articles you may want to review once you read my comments: ’The bottom line is: Apatone selectively targets and kills tumor cells using non-toxic biochemistry that protects surrounding healthy tissue.” Licensed in 2004 to IC-MedTech, Inc., a California-based biotechnology company, the first clinical trial began in 2005 to evaluate the drug in prostate cancer patients. The clinical studies, which were conducted at Summa Health System in Akron, Ohio and with Dr. Ananias Diokno at William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Mich., examined the safety and effectiveness in 17 end-stage prostate cancer patients for 12 weeks. These patients took Apatone orally each day. The trials were supported by the Beaumont Foundation, Summa Health System and IC-MedTech.

Yet this is the best that the NIH report can offer the informed patients and physicians trying to help cancer patients. They admit there could be some discrepancy in the research but clearly tell no one that vitamin C is working when mixed with the correct form of vitamin K-3 (Apatone), which increases its oxidative capacity.

Remember this  work using vitamin C  for cancer  goes back several years now  and it consists IV vitamin C with the correct form of vitamin K, which unfortunately it appears that  most physicians  have never found  the correct form since there appears to be as many as 6 molecules being sold as vitamin K-3 and some are toxic. Yet in the lecture I will deliver for The Oxidative Training Workshop during IMOSAIC on April 7th at the Minneapolis conference, sponsored by ACAM, AHIMA, AAEM and ICIM, I will educate you about how easily you can kill the therapeutic effect when you are trying to master oxidative therapies with something as simple as giving NAC or GLUTATHIONE concurrently.

Excerpt:

Introduction
Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin that is naturally present in some foods, added to others, and available as a dietary supplement. Humans, unlike most animals, are unable to synthesize vitamin C endogenously, so it is an essential dietary component [1].

Vitamin C is required for the biosynthesis of collagen, L-carnitine, and certain neurotransmitters; vitamin C is also involved in protein metabolism [1,2]. Collagen is an essential component of connective tissue, which plays a vital role in wound healing. Vitamin C is also an important physiological antioxidant [3] and has been shown to regenerate other antioxidants within the body, including alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E) [4]. Ongoing research is examining whether vitamin C, by limiting the damaging effects of free radicals through its antioxidant activity, might help prevent or delay the development of certain cancers, cardiovascular disease, and other diseases in which oxidative stress plays a causal role. In addition to its biosynthetic and antioxidant functions, vitamin C plays an important role in immune function [4] and improves the absorption of nonheme iron [5], the form of iron present in plant-based foods. Insufficient vitamin C intake causes scurvy, which is characterized by fatigue or lassitude, widespread connective tissue weakness, and capillary fragility [1,2,4,6-9].

Sublingual B12 dramatically changes lives! Beyond B12 from Longevity Plus also contains three forms of folic acid so that the negative reports about cheap folic acid do not apply. Only when you are using the methylated forms of folic acid, as well as B12, can we overcome some of the methylation associated problems rampant in patients today.

This is due to epigenetic changes; thanks to the Bisphenol A found in everyone today many of us have impaired methylation pathways. I did a webinar that addressed some of these issues, as methylation is deeply involved in detoxification and memory loss as well. The webinar can be found on www.gordonresearch.com (Methylation Support, Toxins, and Memory Loss (1/25).

This article will help you appreciate the epidemic of borderline B12 deficiencies we see when we test with methylmalonic acid not serum B12, which is a waste of time and money.

Please read this and help your patients to a fuller happier and healthier life. Help meet their B12 needs! B12 has cured asthma in children and treated bursitis and it was heavily studied in mainstream literature just 50 years ago before all the drug companies came up with a drug for anything that seems wrong with every patient while carefully ignoring the causes of impaired health.

Tired? Depressed? Forgetting things? Who isn’t these days? 

Those are also symptoms of a deficiency of B12, a key nutrient needed to make red blood cells and DNA and keep the nervous system working right. 

Vitamin B12 deficiency is officially considered rare, affecting about 1 in 1,000 Americans, according to a 2005 study. But the incidence rises with age, to about 15% of elderly people. The rate is also much higher among people who don’t eat meat or dairy products, people with absorption problems, people taking acid-blocking medications and those with Type 2 diabetes who take the drug Metformin. 

“B12 deficiency is much more common than the textbooks and journal articles say it is,” says Alan Pocinki, an internist in Washington D.C., who routinely tests his patients who fall into those categories. He also notes that since the Metformin connection was discovered only recently, some physicians aren’t aware of it. “They assume that if patients complain of numbness and tingling in the feet, it’s a diabetes issue and not a B12 issue.”

Other symptoms of low B12 include anemia, depression, dementia, confusion, loss of appetite and balance problems. Long-term deficiency can bring severe anemia, nerve damage and neurological changes that may be irreversible. 

Sometimes the symptoms are subtle. Internist Linda Assatourians, one of Dr. Pocinki’s partners, says that a surprising number of her young female patients also have low levels of B12. Typically they are healthy and active, but they don’t eat much meat and they have minor mood, memory or balance problems. “When I supplement their B12, they feel better,” Dr. Assatourians says. “It’s not a controlled study, but I see a lot of them.” 
“I was sort of tired, but I thought, ‘It’s winter and I’m doing too much,’ ” says Jessica Riester, 27, editor of publications for a German-American think tank. Her B12 level was slightly over 200 picograms per milliliter (the normal range is considered 200 to 800 pg per ml). After several weeks of B12 injections, then 1,000 milligrams daily in pill form, her B12 is now over 600 pg per ml and she says she feels better. “My color is better and the shadows under my eyes are gone,” she says. 

From Garry Gordon, MD:

This PROTOCOL will dramatically improve almost any skin condition for any patient. Always think systemically; always deal with foods that are sensitizing the patient and toxins and infections that are not necessarily just skin infections.

Please get an atomizer from Longevity Plus and fill it 50/50 with Quinton Marine Plasma Hypertonic and ACS 200 and spray often. Alternate that with sprays from ACZ Nano, which if not responding we can make stronger by putting one ZeoGold cap in 2 ounces of good water, let it hydrate and draw off the top 10 cc or two tsp. Use that to “spike” the ACZ Nano after 10 cc have been used or put in water and drank but that way we have POWERFUL HEALING from the stronger Zeolite form in ZeoGold that I find even helps cancer lesions on the skin. 

When using Quinton always take at least 3-4 of the Isotonic orally to maximize effect but spraying it is amazing particularly with the help of the other suggestions. Get two atomizers to use up the 10 cc or simply drink the residual contents.

Longevity Plus also has the strongest topical Aloe Vera used in nursing homes by Carrasyn. Use that lightly on the skin, as it will dry and form a thin film helping the other spray applications become longer acting.

Always top off the program with MY INFECTION PROGRAM. Orally use 5 days of high dose Vit A, 300-500,000 units each day, and always use high dose Vit D, 5000 a day, and Immuni-T2, three bid, and use the ACS 200 orally, 1 ounce to start then 25 sprays tid, which is 1/2 ounce daily, for days or weeks depending on condition. 

But EVERYONE has to learn my FIGHT program and the oral program here will help skin recover by lowering total body burden of pathogens but all skin is an accessory detox organ so soak in tub with Beyond Clean (EDTA) and follow instructions on the jar to alternate with Epsom then vinegar, etc.

Always use my Power Drink (MACA, Beyond Fiber, BIOEN’R-G’Y C and Organic Green) with Beyond Chelation-Improved and ZeoGold, as I can show you that even lifetime disfiguring psoriasis or other impossible eczema etc will always respond to my FIGHT program. Always increase Omega 3 to 4 caps daily for a month in addition to the one cap in each BC-I packet but the primrose in those is essential too. The diet is tough, stop sensitizing foods; listen to my webinars on FOOD and FIGHT and SILVER to learn more.

Please study this carefully; this field has been grossly ignored. It is not just Lou Gehrig’s Dx, it is many patients whose real problem stems from a blow to the brain and later develop pituitary malfunction.

The Institute for Integrative Medicine conference covered the topic of brain trauma and pituitary malfunction in great detail and they have videos from all three days of their inaugural meeting. The next meeting will be January 28-30 in Orlando, Florida very reasonably prices with outstanding information. Registration and other information found onhttp://www.theifim.com/. 

And there are safe effective and affordable alternatives orally administered, as Mark Gordon lectures. He and University Compounding carry a product he helped develop and I have located a non-prescription product from a multi-level company http://www.orendainternational.com called O-Tropin, which appears to be providing similar benefits. Longevity Plus is offering it to retail clients at this time.

Excerpt:

A peer-reviewed paper to be published tomorrow in a leading journal of neuropathology suggests that Lou Gehrig’s demise — and that of some other athletes and soldiers given a
diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease — might have been catalyzed by injuries only now becoming understood: concussions and other brain trauma.

Although the paper does not discuss the Yankees slugger specifically, its authors in interviews acknowledged the clear implication: Lou Gehrig might not have had Lou Gehrig’s
disease.

Probiotics are rapidly becoming essential for life if we want to enjoy optimal health. This may be related to the excessive use of antibiotics in agriculture, but whatever the reasons are, this 16 page attachment may provide you with the science on this soon to be essential nutritional supplement.

This IS A MUST for any patients with autoimmune or allergy related issues, including acne, autism, asthma, Auto immune disease and even cancer and, of course, all GI related issues. Use probiotics whenever there could be food sensitivities present. We can expect to see better results when we recommend a proven effective and stable probiotic.

However, whether you are using Kyodophilus, which Longevity Plus is carrying, as it is stable without refrigeration, or some other Probiotic, the need to facilitate their benefits by lowering the number of pathogens or unhealthy flora is very important.

I like the PREBIOTIC function of Beyond Fiber because it is not just the perfect combination of soluble with insoluble fiber but because it has stabilized rice bran, one of the most nutrient dense foods and that helps eliminate toxins but it also includes a special artichoke component from Germany that helps sustain friendly flora so well that over 2 months or so, Candida has been shown to significantly regress.

Please when maximizing probiotic benefits also consider the proven benefits of zeolite and silver, as available in what is called Total Body Detox, the two bottle package from Longevity Plus. The silver is needed because in many patients, the overgrowth of unhealthy flora is preventing implantation of friendly flora, so they need to be eliminated. Silver does that while the ACZ (Zeolite) component of Total Body Detox concurrently acts to neutralize many toxins, organic and inorganic. This permits restoration of a healthier gut flora and even improves immune functioning since the gut associated lymphoid tissue is
dramatically benefitted with this combined  probiotics/detox approach.

Longevity Plus had effective answers to osteoporosis with their Beyond Bone, H.R.T. Plus and Beyond Any Multiple but the public will prefer the subsidized poisons offered under our health care system, unless you educate them about the dangers from bisphosphonates like Fosamax.

Excerpt:

Bisphosphonates are now the most widely marketed and prescribed patented, FDA-approved anti-osteoporosis drugs. Bisphosphonates mimic, to some extent, the effects of estrogen on bone in that they work by inhibiting bone resorption [the process by which old bone is removed to make room for new bone]. However, like estrogen, these drugs have no ability to build new bone.

Currently FDA-approved bisphosphonates, including Fosamax (alendronate), Actonel (risedronate), Didronel (etidronate), Boniva (ibandronate), and Reclast (Zometa) (zoledronate), are designed to strengthen bone by inhibiting normal osteoclastic bone resorbing activity, which slows the loss of bone mineral density (BMD), allowing the trabecular architecture to stabilize. Notice that this has nothing to do with stabilizing the balance between estrogen and progesterone, restoring calcium levels, or any other natural process.

Like many other patented drugs, bisphosphonates are synthetic analogs of an important natural bone-building chemical, pyrophosphate, which normally helps bind calcium to bone tissue through a process known as mineralization. Unlike pyrophosphate, however, bisphosphonates actually block normal mineralization as well as osteoclastic bone resorption.

Large, placebo-controlled trials generally show that these drugs can indeed increase BMD and reduce the risk of vertebral, hip, and other nonvertebral fractures in women with osteoporosis—at least in the short run. That’s the good news. Merck, the company that markets the leading bisphosphonate, Fosamax (now also sold generically as alendronate), seized upon results like these to turn its drug into a blockbuster worth as much as $3.6 billion per year. Use of Fosamax and other bisphosphonates has been growing at an especially rapid rate since 2002, when the publication of the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) results scared women away from “estrogen” replacement, which until then had been the leading conventional method for preventing osteoporosis.

Unfortunately, all may not be so rosy after all. Trials lasting up to 10 years are beginning to raise doubts about the long-term safety and efficacy of bisphosphonates. The main problem is that bisphosphonates not only directly—and unnaturally—inhibit osteoclastic bone resorption, they also indirectly inhibit the other side of the bone-building coin, osteoblastic bone formation.
