Vilik;

Go to http://members.shaw.ca/duncancrow/HMS-90.html and click to the

medical references;. You'll see most of the diseases that are associated

with lipid peroxidation, or free radical disease.

Click to " neurodegeneratives " and read the medical material. We already

know that the doctors are using vitamin E to reduce the progress of

several neurodegeerative disorders, so it's not a great stretch at all to

include precursors for the most versatile detoxifier and antioxidant the

body can produce. I mention detoxifier to get you interested in

glutathione's attribute of chelating heavy metals too if one believes

there may be an involvement there.

Now go to http://www.lef.org and enter in the search box " ALS " and select

" protocols " in the drop-down box. The seven page treatise on methylation

shows you how to increase myelin growth. Although specific to ALS, this

will be the same for any of the meyelin sheath disorders including

Alzheimers. Note that the protocol also involves using growth factors and

antioxidants of several types.

Then check out the medical literature accessable from

http://members.shaw.ca/patriciagilbert/ for further info on the merits of

increasing HGH and IGF-1 growth factors to effect better brain repair (in

the elderly individual with low growth hormone levels) for Alzheimer's.

Duncan,

It took me awhile but I read alot on this. One of my best friends has

Alzheimers. Which product would you recommend? They did alot

of natural things for along time and she became remarkably better.

Then her husband just stopped them. I think he became weary

with all of the juicing etc.

Dear Saul,

I guess the reason my friend was getting so much better was the fact the ND

her doing all of these things plus other things. She can't do them on her own

because of the memory thing. Her husband is now only concerned about her

heart.(meaning he is back to seeing a medical doctor) I tried to tell him

the 2 problems are interrelated.

Thanks, I pass this on to him AGAIN.

Dear Edith,

This past week there was an article on the connection between

homocysteine buildup and Alzheimer's.

From my book:

" Homocysteine is an amino acid used by the body to build and maintain

tissue. It is produced by the body’s metabolism of the amino acid methionine

from dietary protein. Methionine can donate methyl (carbon) to folic acid to

aid in DNA repair, transforming the methionine into homocysteine.

Homocysteine is a necessary precursor for the production of glutathione, a

peptide made up of three amino acids (glycine, glutamic acid and cysteine).

The cysteine is derived from homocysteine.

When its job is done, homocysteine can be reconverted back to methionine in

the liver with the aid of Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Vitamin B9 (folic acid),

magnesium and unsaturated fats. Feverfew is a herb that helps this process

as well.

A lack of the B vitamins and magnesium leads to a homocysteine crisis, in

which the overabundant amino damages the lining of the arteries, through

release of free radicals. A bacteria may then move in and start to flourish

at the damaged site, and the body responds to the damage by covering it with

a buildup of plaque, composed of cholesterol and calcium, leading to

atherosclerosis, impeded circulation, heart attack and stroke. A high

homocysteine level triples the risk of heart attack.

Homocysteine buildup can be avoided by ingesting Vitamins B3, B6, B9, B12

and magnesium. Sources for them are :

& #61623; B3 (niacin) : brewer’s yeast, seafood, liver, sunflower seeds,

wheat germ

& #61623; B6 (pyridoxine): brewer’s yeast, vegetables, meat, liver, salmon,

nuts, sunflower seeds, wheat germ, wheat bran, brown rice, whole grains,

blackstrap molasses, bananas and eggs. If taking a supplement, do not exceed

200 mg daily.

& #61623; B9 (folic acid) : brewer’s yeast, broccoli, spinach, asparagus,

peas, wheat germ, beets, romaine lettuce, oranges, pineapple, sunflower

seeds, kidney beans, soybeans, chickpeas, lentils, avocado, liver, tuna. If

taking a supplement, do not exceed 1 mg per day.

& #61623; B12 (cobalamin) : algae, aloe vera, tuna, meat, liver, eggs, milk,

cheese, yogurt, seafood, rice milk, bee pollen. It is also available in

sublingual pellets as a supplement, necessary for anyone over age 50, when

the body stops producing intrinsic factor in gastric juice, preventing its

availability from diet.

& #61623; magnesium : green vegetables, dairy, figs, seafood, blackstrap

molasses, kelp, rice, brewers yeast, cashews, wheat germ, soybeans, oatmeal,

almonds, bananas; Essential Elements; Homozon; Flora liquid

calcium/magnesium/Vitamin D/zinc

& #61623; feverfew tea

Best of Health!

Hi Edith;

Any cold-processed whey isolate will increase glutathione; when it's

justified I still use Immunocal 20 grams but as I'm getting more people

on a higher protein diet I'm recommending something cheaper and just

getting them to triple the dose to 60 grams daily. That dose will satisfy

the glutathione precursor part.

Use whatever you like for A - 10,000; C - 1,500; E - 1200; selenium -

600 mcg; lipoic acid - 300 mg and the b-75 complex with folate 3x a day.

Niacin or niacinamide about .5 grams 3x a day, and ginkgo (brahmi) will

help too. I use Iherb.com for the b-12, 25 mg-60 mg daily in divided

doses for neurodegenerative clients.

Somalife Health Products has a blend of brahmi, gotu kola, and

phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylserine, called memory.

SomaLife gHP is what 11,000 anti-aging specialists use to increase growth

hormone without using growth hormone. They tried more than 100 other

compounds in the clinic and none increased HGH materially except for

SomaLife gHP, which pegs HGH to maximum natural values with every dose,

even in very old patients.

SomaLife's products are guaranteed. I have my folks and wife on gHP,

about 30 other regular clients, and about 30 who aren't clients simply

purchase over the Internet.

http://asomaworld.net/duncancrow/

My clients seem to be holding their own; it's tough to keep people on a

complete program (they slack off as soon as they feel at all better) so

it's hard to tell on how effective the protocol can be in optimal

conditions.

regards,

Duncan
