Guest guest Posted July 14, 1999 Report Share Posted July 14, 1999 I tried micohydrin for 4 months. I still have lyme and all the symptoms I had before micohydrin. Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 15, 1999 Report Share Posted July 15, 1999 research by scientists that would not allow them to put their names and credentials??!! anyway... Evaluation Studies of Microhydrin By Clinton Royal BodyCare is conducting an ongoing series of laboratory and clinical studies designed to evaluate the nutritional characteristics and benefits of Microhydrin as a mineral antioxidant. The following is a brief summary of the results of studies completed as of December 3 1, 1998 Because these data may be included in papers submitted for publication in peer reviewed journals, and because their work load does not permit time to answer numerous inquiries, scientists conducting the studies asked RBC not to publish their names and institutions. However, the complete reports are on file at Royal BodyCare headquarters, and will be available for review by appropriate government regulators. Evaluation of Microhydrin As a Scavenger of Free Radicals Tests on Microhydrin were conducted using electronic spin resonance (ESR) by a scientist who specializes in the evaluation of antioxidants at a major university. The following is quoted from the test report. " We have made a thorough investigation of the antioxidant activity of Microhydrin by several experimental methods. " " Hydroxyl radical scavenging activity was found in two different Microhydrin preparations provided " . " Our conclusions are that Microhydrin has antioxidant activity towards hydroxyl radicals. Hydroxyl radicals are among the most dangerous of oxygen free radicals that occur in biological systems. They are the same type of radicals that can be produced by exposure to ionizing radiation. Therefore it can be stated that Microhydrin has antioxidant activity in this regard. " Evaluation of Microhydrin As A Scavenger of Free Radicals, Report II Tests on Microhydrin were conducted by a scientist who also specializes in the evaluation of antioxidants at a separate major university. The following is quoted from the test report: " When assayed in the 'standard' assay for super oxide dismutase activity based upon the reduction of cytochrome c by xanthine (see J. Biol. Chem. 244: 6049-605, 1969), Microhydrin showed two characteristics: 1) Microhydrin can directly reduce cytochrome c, showing that it is a reducing agent (or an antioxidant) 2) Microhydrin can inhibit the superoxide-mediated reduction of cytochrome c, indicating that it can scavenge the superoxide free radical. " " When assayed with an alternative method based on the ability of superoxide to oxidize epinephrine to adrenochrome, Microhydrin also showed its ability to scavenge the superoxide radical and inhibit the process. " The Heidelberg Test Leonard , MD, Medical Director for RBC, conducted the Heidelberg Test on himself at a clinic in order to determine the effect of Microhydrin on stomach acid. The Heidelberg Test utilizes a tiny radio transmitter in a capsule, which measures and transmits the pH of its environment. Dr. swallowed the capsule and waited 10 minutes to establish the baseline pH. The radio transmitter indicated a pH of 1.0 typical of stomach acid. He then swallowed a Microhydrin capsule with a small amount of water. According to the technician, a momentary blip in the pH was a normal indication of water reaching the stomach. The stomach normally empties in about 30 to 45 minutes. After 45 minutes the pH rose to 6 indicating, according to the technician, that the capsule had reached the small intestine. The conclusion from the test was that Microhydrin in its vegetable capsule, when taken with water, does not release significantly while in the stomach, and does not alkalinize stomach acid. Evaluation of Lipid Peroxides in Humans Taking Microhydrin Five subjects were given six Microhydrin per day for five days. An independent clinical laboratory analyzed lipid peroxides using HPLC methods on each subject before and after Microhydrin supplementation. The MD conducting the trial observed no substantial change in lipid peroxides and no adverse side effects during the supplementation period. Pre-Clinical Trial With Human Subjects Taking Microhydrin A controlled clinical trial showed that in eight normal adult subjects, seven of the nine Biological Terrain Assessment parameters improved. Saliva, pH, saliva rH2, blood resistivity, and urine resistivity showed statistically significant improvement (p >0.05) for these eight subjects after 18 days of supplementation with 4 Microhydrin per day on a schedule of one in the morning, two at midday and one in the evening. Three other parameters (urine pH, urine rH2, and saliva resistivity) also showed improvement over the 18 day supplementation period when their average changes were calculated. Blood pH and blood rH2 were the only parameters that did not change during the supplementation period.. These values may not change as readily due to the heterogeneous and stable nature of blood. The nutritionist and physicians who monitored the study with Biological Terrain Assessment results and other clinical data observed no adverse effects in this group during the supplementation period.
