I read the book and found it very lacking in scientific support but I discovered I naturally ate the rate A diet for my blood type. I made a few changes to follow the diet more closely, gave up a few things that never made me feel good anyway....and seem to be doing better. It interested me especially in light of the relation to HEMEX research on blood coagulation....Ken do you have any responses on this blood type diet? Or why there isn't more scientific research on it? best, E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2000 Report Share Posted January 26, 2000 How can I not give speculation when asked... The PREMISE of the book is that the digestive system is functioning correctly. This is NOT the case with CFSers -- generally, their ability to digest ANYTHING appears to be badly deteriorated because of the low stomach acid (which may or may not be apparent to different people)... so his suggestions needs to be 'filtered' through an ease of 'digestion' filter. On the otherhand, I recall that his testing methodolgy was putting food particles into blood and seeing what reacted (a bad sign). WELL... this sure sounds like a " Leaky Gut " scenario. So, if you 'filter' his suggestions thru ease of digestion then there is a logic to the suggestions helping (because the body will have less leaky gut / food allergy reactions to what you eat). I trust / hope that he did not test whey -- so everyone can keep on this very interesting food... ... my 2 cents... Why is there no more research? SIMPLE REALITY (to quote ferigis (Star Trek Character)): " Where is the profit in it? " For example: NADH has been demonstrated to help CFS - why was it tested? It is patented!!! A success means money! NADH is a Niacin precursor. Why was niacin not tested in the same manner? Niacin is not protected by patents, it's cheap (100 tablets at 500 mg < $3), so no vitamin company is about to invest in research that will benefit their competitors.... As for University Research... most research academics do NOT have a 'free' budget -- but must bring in research grants to the Universities (that cuts off 40+% for administation) from Industry etc... The only one likely to fund such a research project is CDC or NIH .... need I say more... Ken ----- Original Message ----- From: esp <esp@...> Ken do you have any responses on this blood type diet?

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2000 Report Share Posted August 18, 2000 Hi Kathy R. Here's my answer as a psychologist and not a business person- sure xerox the PANDAS pages! I have a strong commitment to getting the word out on PANDAS because so few people (professionals too!) are aware of it. You might recommend the school buy a copy of the book anyway, because Chapter 15 is about managing OCD in the classroom, with specific strategies for handling sticking points for different symptom types. Is Kel on prophylactic antiobiotics, or do you treat when there are spikes? Thank you for your feedback, I'm so glad to hear that the book has been helpful. Best, Tamar Chansky, Ph.D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2001 Report Share Posted April 7, 2001 Hi! I agree with Chrissie. Info in the Moss reports is definitely attainable elsewhere, so don't blow the money like I did. There's a lot on the internet, including the whole book by the dentist who models his treatment after. Also, one book that I highly recommend is " A Cancer Battle Plan, " by Anne Frahm, which can be bought at amazon.com for a small cost. If this lady could get cured after docs sent her home to die, after they had pummeled her body with chemo and radiation, then I think the majority of other cancer victims can be cured, too.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Janet, eating a baked potato right before and/or right after getting blood drawn gives your body extra energy to start making more blood to make up for the blood lost. I've had problems with giving blood to, first,they can't get any, and when they finally find some, I get light headed. I found that drinking lots and lots a day or so beforehand really helped. The nurse said it increases blood mass, so you don't notice so much when you loose some. At least now I know I'm not the only one who can't loose much blood at all without problems.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Esther, Thank you for explaining why baked potatoes are helpful after having a lot of blood drawn. So, my friend was right about that. Well, I love baked potatoes and they don't bother my stomach, so I will do that from now on.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 After 8 years of treatment of my SLL at Alta Bates Cancer Center in Berkeley, my nodes and spleen were getting huge and no one there had a clue what to do next, e.g. " Well, let's try this... " So I went to Dr. Kipps at UCSD, he treated me for 5 days straight and all my swollen nodes are gone. The only advice I would give to anyone with CLL-SLL is run, don't walk to one of the CLL Consortium Member Clinics: that would be UCSD and s Cancer Center, Dr. Kipps, Jan Bole New Patient Coordinator 858-822-2405 (obviously my favorite);Byrd at Ohio State, Arthur Cancer Hospital; Dana Farber Cancer Institute at Harvard; Rai at Long Island Jewish Medical Center; Mayo Clinic; M.D. Cancer Center, Dr. Keating Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center, s Hopkins, Baltimore. -- Tom Cone --------- Re: interesting presentatiion > > Excellent presentation. > Thank you. > > Carolyn Swift wrote: > I copied this from the CLL Forum.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Tom, Thanks for the advice. Would you mind telling us what kind of treatment Dr. Kipps used to get your swollen nodes down? Did the swelling in your spleen go down also? Stay well! Andy Re: interesting presentatiion >> >> Excellent presentation. >> Thank you. >> >> Carolyn Swift wrote: >> I copied this from the CLL Forum.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Tom, My wife was dx 1991 and she has seeing Dr. Kipps and Jan for the last three years. January of 2005 she started on the HDMP +R; we would go down for 5 days in Jan, Feb and March for the treatment and she is doing very well. I couldn't agree more that the team in La Jolla is wonderful. My wife see a local Onc/Hem for follow up and bloods and he is very much on board with the team approach we have selected. Good health and good luck, Dan Hill Re: interesting presentatiion > > Excellent presentation. > Thank you. > > Carolyn Swift wrote: > I copied this from the CLL Forum.
