The fact that greenmed.info mis-represented the research findings it sited, and it was repeated in various articles on SOTT was the emphasis of the above post. Just trying to keep the information accurate. Discarding the benefits of chlorophyll rich foods/juice as part of a paleo meat/fat...

That is correct ... the reason being that vitamin C enhances conversion from Fe3+ (which is non-absorbable) to Fe2+ (which is absorbable). Calcium, magnesium and zinc do the opposite, so one can fine-tune iron absorption by tweaking all these minerals. Also interesting to note, that fish and...

I recently noticed an article on SOTT about cloves – what caught my eye is that clove is also an iron chelator: So – just out of curiosity went looking for more info and found this study here: Although decanting and EDTA are obviously the first line of defense against iron, I guess it does...

Just read this in Detox with Oral Chelation and thought I would share an excerpt of it since looks like EDTA would help deal with inflammation and 'silent' inflamation associated with the cardiovascular system as well as lowering iron levels. Looks like a win-win situation for taking EDTA. The...

That was my thinking as well Nienna. I also couldn't find anything, in the threads referenced, that illustrated how or why some components in eggs would undergo heavy oxidation. _http://www.aeb.org/food-manufacturers/egg-nutrition-and-trends/nutrient-composition Some things that might oxidize...

I searched the forum and didn't see a thread dedicated to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, COPD, and since I just recently started hearing more about it I decided to look into it and post what I found. COPD is a chronic inflammatory condition in the lungs. The mucus membranes become...

Would a diet section be helpful too? Or is that too peripheral to the C's teachings (watch the diet was pretty much all they said, unless I'm mistaken) to be considered for preparation? I started writing a summary of the basics this week, but it's not exhaustive by any means. :knitting: A...

So true. Would like to throw out a suggestion, which I've been hesitant to come forward with for lack of finding scientific backing. The fact that it is a natural supplement might be why, but maybe someone who understands blood chemistry can propose a theory. I've been doing my own research...

One caution that needs to be kept in mind: cayenne pepper is a nightshade and for many, many people, is highly inflammatory. One pinch of cayenne or chilis or any other kind of peppers other than black pepper, in a pot of soup or stew, and I am in pain for a week. Sherry Rogers writes about it...

Dr. Mercola defines what the tests are for and mentions some others I didn't have earlier: http://www.mercola.com/forms/mpt.htm

Some years ago the iron levels in my blood were shown to be high so my doctor recommended my giving blood every few months, which I did for several years. The iron levels showed normal soon after I started so this is something to look out for again. I will be getting my blood tested this week to...

This one is a very interesting article. He basically says that a poorly liganded iron is what makes taking vitamin C dangerous. Also, that melatonin chelates iron from the body. He makes the link with several diseases, viral and bacterial infections, heavy metals and other toxins. Anyhow, I...

This one is interesting because it links it at the genetic level with gluten intolerance and so many autoimmune diseases. See my comments below: I think this is a key concept. There is a genetic predisposition where HLA-DQ genes located on chromosome 6 makes you vulnerable to gluten...

I found the following, hope it helps: _http://www.lef.org/protocols/metabolic_health/hemochromatosis_09.htm

Thanks for the information on this, Laura -- I had a neighbor with hemochromatosis who has to go in for monthly treatments. Maybe the old treatment of bloodletting wasn't as crazy as it sounds, but was just applied too broadly at the time? I hope that it's something that helps your daughter and...

Only if he is overweight and stuck on that weight, that would be problematic. So here is a 101 on liver metabolism from the book "Beating and Treating Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome". It is very friendly, that is why I grabbed it from that book: So that is a synopsis of...

Here is an update that adds much perspective and synthesizes quite a lot of the material quoted so far (regarding cancer):

H2O2 Safety The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in Federal Regulation Vol. 46, Number 6, Jan 9, 1981, in effect gave the food industry a green light to use hydrogen peroxide in the “Aseptic” packaging process. The FDA has further ruled that hydrogen peroxide can be used in the processing of...

Some controversy thrown in by the astronomer researcher and his wife from the PerfectHealthDiet blog. Question is, are they even remotely aware of ketogenic diets been used to starve off cancer cells? I'm quoting some excerpts only:
