China Testing and other Things

 This time in China my wife and I started to initiate a program for testing a large number of people for ionic metals and/or chelation ability.

Our first 22 subjects and enrolments for the program are young students she instructs in cell biology and genetics as part of their medical studies. They all want to be medical doctors at a later stage helping others to hopefully stay healthy.

The excitement of these young people to be able to learn something new and to test themselves and others for ionic metals was quite overwhelming. We have great hopes of being able to broaden their mind and thus help them to develop into worthwhile medical doctors rather then simply licensed drug dealers for international medical drug companies.

We will train these young people in ionic metal testing and intend to send them to different areas of this vast country to test a large number of their country women and men in rural and urban areas.

Because of China’s huge pollution problem, I expected a high percentage of contaminated people. Unfortunately it seems this expectation was fulfilled by our first test results.                                                                                                                   

Result of testing 35 Chinese individuals:

 1 person green  (lived in mountainous region, before recently moving to Nanning)

2 people nearly green (taking supplements and one from rural area)

32 people all shades of colours (living in urban areas, mainly Nanning)

 If we count the 2 ‘nearly green’ individuals to the group of ‘metal free’ people, we are looking at roughly 94% of the population who are over burdened with ionic metals. If, on the other hand, we want to be very critical and count the ‘nearly green’ tests into the group of contaminated people, we are ending up with virtually 100% of contamination.

This, of course, will have huge repercussions for the future health and well being of Chinese people. Already China has the highest rate of lung cancer. About 600.000 people died of lung cancer in that country last year. Yes, Chinese men are great smokers, but is cigarette smoking the true and only cause of lung cancer?  Certainly not according to an article I just read. In actual fact this article points out that other environmental factors may have a much greater causative factor than smoking itself. The article was written by Dr. J.P.Siepmann’s (MD) and I very much agree with him. (http://www.journaloftheoretics.com/Editorials/Vol-1/e1-4.htm).

Whoever has lived in one of China’s polluted cities, where it is sometimes difficult to make out the next high rising building in the pollution haze, will agree that this chemical soup, people have to breathe day in day out, may have something to do with the ever increasing levels of lung (and other) cancers as well as other chronic diseases.

Smoking then may only be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. It seems to be certain that a major causative factor may be the high metal burden of the air people have to breathe…and the initial tests we just conducted support this view.

I gave up smoking a long, long time ago but never developed into a ‘reformed smoker’, blindly trying to blame a certainly bad habit for all the ills in the world. We have to keep an open mind and look at facts and some scientific evidence.

 Here is some of the evidence we hear so little about in the media:

And another article connecting metals to lung cancer:

Metallic carcinogenicity is generally thought to generate of free radicals, and thus some metals were reported to play a role in lung tumorigenesis. In order to verify the role of heavy metals in the development of Taiwanese lung cancer, a case-control study was conducted to compare heavy metal contents between 60 tumor and 42 normal lung tissues surgically resected from lung cancer and noncancer patients. The tissue concentration of heavy metals, including cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), lead (Pb), and nickel (Ni), was measured using by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). Our results indicated that Cr and Ni contents in lung tumors of lung cancer patients were significantly higher than those in normal lung tissue of noncancer controls, but Co content was markedly lower in lung tumors. Additionally, Pb content in lung tumors was associated with nodal involvement, and Co amounts in squamous-cell carcinomas were relatively higher than those in adenocarcinomas. Data suggest that accumulation of Cr and Ni in lung tumors may play a role, at least in part, in the development of lung cancer in Taiwan

 From the United States comes a research paper (Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center at UT Southwestern and published in: Journal of Thoracic Oncology) which states that:

‘The researchers from the Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center at UT Southwestern found that the lung cancer rates were highest in counties with the highest level of industrialization. These counties were primarily located in the Houston area and the contiguous Gulf Coast counties and in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area, where there were also higher industrial emissions of zinc, chromium and copper.

The study’s findings point to potential root causes for lung cancer in the estimated 10 percent to 15 percent of lung cancer patients who never smoked, said Dr. Yvonne Coyle, associate professor of internal medicine and the study’s senior author.’

Tree Rings Show Elevated Tungsten Coincides with Nevada Leukemia Cluster

Tungsten levels in Fallon trees began increasing in 1994, while levels in neighboring towns remained the same. Since 1997, 17 cases of childhood leukemia have been diagnosed in children who lived in the Fallon area for some time prior to diagnosis. Fallon's high incidence of leukemia has been acknowledged as a leukemia cluster by the Nevada State Health Division.

The tree-ring study by Sheppard and his co-authors Robert J. Speakman of the Smithsonian Institution in Suitland, Md., Dr. Gary Ridenour of Fallon and Mark L. Witten, a UA research professor of pediatrics, is in the May 2007 issue of Environmental Health Perspectives.

 And similar to Autism and other ‘metal mediated diseases’ we have to ask: ‘why is it that not every child developed leukaemia?’ A similar question can be asked for all cancer cases and in fact, all cases of chronic diseases.

The answer is always the same, of course: children inherit weaknesses. In the above case the children obviously  inherited a weakness which lead to their inability to chelate metals properly and hence to eliminate these metals from the body.

In an environment where ‘free metals’ or ‘ionic metal’ loads are increasing the ‘bar’ is lifted constantly. More and more people will be unable to chelate ionic metals properly and hence will develop cancer and other ‘chronic’ diseases mediated by an increase in free radicals.

A major contributor to our inability to chelate metals must be seen in increasing stress levels due to our fast and ‘modern’ world which lowers our ability to digest food properly and, of course, the fact that commercially grown food is deficient in nutrients anyway.

Hence the gap between the amount of nutrients we would need to be able to chelate metals and stem the flood of metal mediated free radicals and the amount we really get from the ‘stuff’ we eat becomes wider and wider.

 We will keep you informed about our research here in China. I am happy that we do not simply alert the people to an impending disaster in the form of wide spread ionic metal overloads, but that we can offer them hope in the form of CH77.

We are certain that we will be able to prevent the development of severe chronic diseases by keeping the test colours in the ‘green zone’ with the help of CH77.
