Healing principles and viewpoint
Allopathic medicine uses a very small repertoire of healing principles.
Pharmaceuticals and surgery are the dominant means of treatment.
Allopathy acknowledges, to some extent, and in a certain way,
certain roles of micro-organisms in human health:
yeasts, molds, fungi, bacteria, viruses.
Allopathic medicine mostly sees these micro-organisms
as the agents of infection and disease.
There is some acknowledgement of symbiosis in the alimentary canal
and on skin surfaces, where epithelial ablatives are processed.
Allopathy, in general, however, fights micro-organisms, as enemies of health.
It regards all of these agents of infection or disease as enemies of health.
Allopathy regards micro-organisms as being external in origin
and as a source of ill health.
Of course, it is well recognized that the reproduction
and the growth of these micro-organisms requires a well defined environment,
and that well defined environment is often, if not usually, another living host.
It is also recognized that there are dormant states for many,
if not most, micro-organisms.
Louis Pasteur, partly originated and championed
the viewpoint of micro-organisms as external in origin,
agents of infection and disease and as enemies of health.
There was another viewpoint.
This viewpoint was advocated by a very capable contemporary of Louis Pasteur:
Antoine Bechamp 1.
Bechamp saw what he called microzymas or “tiny ferments”.
Bechamp found microzymas as far more basic to life than cells.
The alternative
The alternative is to see weaknesses, to see discontinuities, deviations,
disbalances, discord or dissonance.
The alternative is to provide balance in the environment and in the intake,
in the nutrition and in the processes of elimination of the organism or the person,
in the case of a human organism.
Natural cooperative predators?
Allow the speculation that these micro-organisms may, instead, be form indicators
of adaptive processes and agents of appropriate and / or responsive metabolism,
howsoever transitive or intermittent.
They may be natural cooperative predators, attacking weak cells, sickly cells,
alien substances, or isolated cells and tissues,
which cells and tissues have diminished circulation
and diminished access to oxygen and other essentials to cell respiration.
ATP, the life energy form
ATP, Adenosine TriPhosphate, is the universal substance
which supplies energy as a currency for every life process,
for every kind of function, from reproduction and from growth
to simple responsiveness, motility and mobility and even maintenance functions.
The source of ATP in animals, is either a very efficient process,
which takes place in a cell organelle, called the mitochondrion:
the Krebs Cycle, the Citric Acid Cycle,
or glycolysis, fermentation.
It all focuses on one stage in the breakdown of glucose:
whether pyruvic acid enters the mitochondrion and combines coenzyme A,
or whether it breaks down and forms lactic acid.
Mitochondria
There are hundreds of mitochondria in every cell.
They have their own separate DNA.
The mitochondrial DNA is derived from the mother only.
It has its own signals for reproduction and for growth in and for each cell.
The mitochondrion, as an organelle, hosts the very efficient production of ATP,
Adenosine TriPhosphate, the ubiquitous energy source of life.
For each and every pair of electrons donated by oxygen, to the organelle,
three molecules of ATP are formed across the membrane of the organelle.
Oxygen required
As long as there is an adequate source of oxygen to supply the mitochondria,
these organelles provide the ATP energy demand for all life processes.
Overdemand
However, if there is a demand for universal life energy, ATP,
beyond the capacity of the cell or organelle,
beyond the capacity of the number of these organelles,
beyond the supply of oxygen in the cell to the organelle,
an alternative, a standby source of ATP, is required:
fermentation, glycolysis,
the breakdown of sugar, more specifically pyruvic acid to lactic acid.
Remember, Bechamp’s “tiny ferments”, his microzymas.
Could they be the alternative source for ATP, although less efficient,
supplying only one ATP for each electron pair available?
Both the discoveries of James Sheridan 2 and of Gaston Naessens 3,
together and separately, suggest this is just what happens.
Coccoid forms
References in a doctoral thesis, published as a book,
further enforce this explanation.
Marie Nonclercq 4 authors this thesis.
Professor Edouard Boureau, a French palaeontologist, reports tiny round
or coccoid forms that he found in rock from the Sahara desert.
Boureau places these tiny coccoid forms at the foundation of evolution.
Somatids
Naessens finds that with his high resolution (U. V. enhanced) microscopy
he can detect the cycle of tiny organelles he calls somatids.
Normally, these organelles go through a three-step or three-stage cycle.
Naessens finds that when the immune system is weakened or destabilized
(such as from a high demand for ATP and a limited supply, a finite supply
or a deficient supply of oxygen as a source of electron pairs and as a destiny for electron pairs),
the normal three-stage cycle goes through thirteen more pleomorphic forms
to make up a total of sixteen stages or steps,
characterized by distinguishable forms.
Sources of weakness or destabilization
This weakened or destabilized state can be brought on by an array of causes:
shocks, depressed psychological state
(coincident with blood serum pH over 7.46, often, if not always,)
chemical pollution, radiation, wounds, etc., all sources of demand for ATP
and sources for an impaired supply of oxygen, as a source of electron pairs
to supply the mitochondria.
So, the cells need an alternative source of ATP: glycolysis, “tiny ferments”,
microzymas, such as the yeast forms Naessens has found
in the 13 additional pleomorphic stages of somatids.
Those weak, those sickly, or those isolated cells or tissues,
and those dissonant, discordant, disbalanced and / or deviated,
or discontinuous conditions, constitute a toxicity.
Atomic elements or compounds, other than the twenty-four atomic elements
normally found in the variety of molecules constituting living substance
or other than the multiple thousands of compounds found
in normal, healthy living substance and form, are toxic
because they are other than orthomolecular elements or compounds.
Micro-organisms target their infection on these toxifying
or dissonant, discordant or deviant substances, cells or tissues.
Sensing these substances or these dissonant, discordant
and / or deviant conditions, within cells or tissues
is partly a matter of concentration or diffusion, partly a matter of electrical fields,
partly a matter of charge motions: a matter of magnetics.
Fever
Notice that resultant fever, which often accompanies infection,
implements not only an elevated rate of biochemical reactions,
an accelerated metabolism, but it also creates a different threshold
for enzymatic differentiation.
Fever tends to increase the demand for oxygen,
to supply mitochondria with electron pairs to produce ATP efficiently,
in order to not only support the elevated body temperature,
but also to impart the increased paramagnetics of human biological tissue.
Interdependent dynamic progression
Orthomolecular elements and compounds are postured, positioned and processed,
with patterned fields: electrical fields, magnetic fields.
There is an interdependent dynamic progression, associated with reproduction
with growth and with responsiveness, the characteristic functions of life.
Sometimes an organism is reflective.
It interacts first and foremost at its surface with incoming stimuli.
Sometimes an organism is reactive,
in a way that involves only local zones of substance and of form.
Sometimes an organism is responsive, in such a way
that the whole of the organism is involved,
in a coordinated reposturing, repositioning, etc.
Contrasting electrical conductivity
This interdependent dynamic progression is governed by these electrical fields,
these magnetic fields.
Bjorn Nordenstrom 5, of the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, discovered
that there is a characteristic difference between the electrical conductivity
of healthy tissue, cancerous tissue and dead tissue.
These micro-organisms may target on just such differences
in electrical conductivity.
Cathodic and Anodic electrodes,
an alternative source and supply for electron pairs
Nordenstrom uses cathodic and anodic electrodes to supply electron pairs
or to receive electron pairs, which resupply mitochondria
and their efficient processes and process rates (three ATP molecules per electron pair),
which displaces the “tiny ferments” and may even suppress or break down
the yeasts from the deviated and expanded sixteen-stage pleomorphic cycle.
This forced process rate from Nordenstrom’s cathodes and anodes
may lyse the yeasts, proteins, halting the anaerobic process
and regenerating the aerobic mitochondrial process and its greater efficiency.
Harold Burr 6 of Yale University has been measuring electrical anomalies
associated with health and disease for many decades.
Burr’s work certainly flanks the findings of Nordenstrom.
Rupert Sheldrake’s A New Science of Life
and The Presence of the Past 7 also points to such mechanisms.
The problems of organic form
Edmund Sinnott, former dean of Graduate Studies at Yale University,
presents The Problem of Organic Form and Plant Morphogenesis 8
with excellent provisional formulation and structure of the anomalies he gathers.
In five other books, he targets other anomalies:
Matter, Mind and Man, 1957
The Cell and the Psyche
Biology of the Spirit
The Bridge of Life, 1966
Principles of Genetics, 1958
Sinnott’s expositions offer an excellent background for understanding
the interdependent dynamic progression associated with reproduction
and with growth.
Ecology: The discovered extension
of physiology to the environment
In order to understand the interdependent dynamic progression
associated with responsiveness, it is useful to consider the definition of ecology we have used
at our research foundation for some years:
ecology is the discovered extension of physiology to the environment.
Summary to this point
We have brought up the question of whether micro-organisms
are to be viewed as agents of infection and disease, as enemies of health
or as natural cooperative predators.
If we look at the discoveries of Gaston Naessens,
we see such as bacterium and yeasts, which are form indicators
of deviations of cell organelles.
These micro-organisms are pleomorphs,
which gain these configurations from adaptive transformations.
These adaptive transformations buy into the demand for energy,
energy in the form of ATP, but the demand encounters limited access to oxygen
and perhaps a surfeit of carbon dioxide or edema.
This means the efficient source of ATP, the mitochondrion, the citric acid cycle,
can’t produce the three molecules of ATP per pair of electrons donated by oxygen.
The cell takes recourse to an adaptation.
It deviates to become anaerobic.
It adds the thirteen steps or stages of cycling
to the transformation of the cell organelle Naessens has called the somatid.
It adaptively generates yeast.
This means glycolysis can provide ATP by a break-down of sugar,
without oxygen.
It is less efficient, but it meets the demand.
Of course, coincident with this adaptive deviation,
the total capacity to generate ATP is reduced.
The total gain per glucose molecule by the mechanism supplied
within and outside of the mitochondrion is 36 to 38 ATP molecules.
The breakdown of pyruvic acid to form lactic acid
yields a net gain of 2 ATP molecules.
Cellular subsystems are robbed of energy.
The normal bonds and the normal helical pitch
of protein growth factors are weakened
and the pitch of the protein alpha helix is lengthened.
The leucine zipper, which controls the switching of motifs in the DNA,
no longer is able to come into and out of position.
Instead of controlling DNA transcription selectively,
it gets stuck in the regulatory motif.
Rampant, uncontrolled transcription ensues. Cancer is the diagnosis.
The treatment is to get the ATP supply back on track.
To regenerate and renew the mitochondria is the means of ATP production.
To assure that adequate levels of oxygen are available to the mitochondria.
The deviations must be stopped.
The recourse to glycolysis and fermentation must be stopped.
The protein alpha helix coil must be energized
and the pitch of the helix renewed.
The regulation of mobile growth factor proteins must be gained.
This array of regenerative conditions can be gained by an array of means,
some more comprehensive, some swifter, some better targeted, some surer.
The Douglass Protocol introduces hydrogen peroxide intravenously.
The hydrogen peroxide breaks down into oxygen and water.
This can help.
Other means and methods can also help
which enrich the levels of oxygen in the blood
or increase the circulation of oxygen bearing blood.
Substances which bear and which transport oxygen to the vulnerable sites
are comparably effective.
The use of Entelev or CanCell is one such technique.
The use of Naessens’ 714-X is another.
Tucker used DMSO and haematoxilon.
Naessens’ technique has the virtue of being introduced into the lymphatic system,
which circulates in such a way as to deliver just what is needed
to the exact targets in bodily tissue and deviant cells.
CanCell is significant in as much as it bears the systemic energy
of cell respiratory enzymes, which challenge the deviant mechanisms of glycolysis
to conform to oxygen supply mechanisms or to be lysed.
We have looked at the alternative viewpoint: where we see weaknesses,
discontinuities, deviations, disbalances, discord or dissonance,
derived from such as shocks, depressed psychological states
(often, if not usually, coincident with blood serum pH over 7.46),
agitation (often, if not usually, coincident with blood serum pH below 7.46),
chemical pollution, radiation, wounds, etc., as a source of demand for ATP
as the universal life energy source and a restraint, restriction or limitation
in the supply or the source of oxygen.
This may mean the role of a physician may change:
the physician becomes one who escorts the human body
through high rate metabolism,
while managing the rate and the duration, of high rate metabolism,
and eliminating the dissonant, discordant or deviant conditions,
eliminating alien elements or compounds
or the disbalanced proportions of appropriate elements or compounds.
The function of evolution served
An interdependent dynamic progression
not only supports the functions of reproduction, growth and responsiveness,
but also of evolution.
Increasing the system gain of an organism
As we see ecology as the discovered extension of physiology to the environment,
we can also see the goal of evolution
to be to increase the system gain of an organism,
to permit adaptive response to a larger, more eventful and varied environment,
a being and doing response, which is capable of appropriate responsiveness
to a greater field of freedom, an acknowledgement of a greater number
and a greater diversity of forces and motions, over a greater range of distances.
Reflection, reaction and deep response
We have observed that physiology, the functioning of an organism,
has depths and rates of response to stimuli in the environment.
We call the most immediate and shallowest interaction with stimuli “reflection”.
A deeper, more extensively involved interaction with stimuli is “reaction”.
Beyond “reflection” and “reaction” is a deep response,
where much or all of the organism becomes involved.
It is even possible to see that the organism may enter quests, seeking pattern
and seeking energy not yet embodied within its substance and its form,
beyond its experience, beyond its learning or its skill.
In such a case, the stimuli becomes a stress and / or a strain,
held in an unresolved pattern, that may show itself in a dimmed presence
or a numbing to substance or to form, which holds the stress.
The stress is isolated, to the extent it can be.
Every organism has a finite capacity to hold these patterns of unresolved stimuli
in stressed (force containing)
and / or strained (displaced or deformed) substance or form.
Biological elastic limit
That capacity is a kind of biological elastic limit.
The release or the relaxation of that stress or that strain is a kind of cadence,
or resolve.
Social or cultural relay
Sometimes the unresolved stimuli is relayed socially or culturally.
Different members of a society or a culture may explore and experiment,
in a quest for even part of the pattern of appropriate living response to the stimuli.
Stress holding in numbing isolation
or in redundant motion
Acknowledging the thinking of Wilhelm Reich 9,
stress may be held in either this numbing isolation or in redundant motion.
e.g. For some reason we have the ability to delay emptying our bladder
by jiggling our leg.
To relay an unresolved stress and / or a strain, socially or culturally,
is like a very deep responsive interaction with the stimuli.
It can, if successfully resolved, produce order and adaptive capacity,
not only within an organism, but between organisms
or between organisms and their biotic and abiotic environments.
Life order
Herein, in this order, in this often unique and complimentary pattern,
within and between organisms
or between organisms and their biotic and abiotic environments,
we have ecology, the discovered extension of physiology to the environment.
Sometimes this environment is a social or cultural environment.
Within and beyond the elastic limit
Stress is a force, within substance or within form.
Strain is a deformation, a displacement, or deposturing
within substance or within form.
Some forces are within the elastic limits of “reflective” or “reactive” response.
Some deformations or displacements
are within the elastic limits of “reflective” or “reactive” response.
Postures or positions are adjusted
or motions accommodate and acknowledge the stimuli.
When the stress, the forces, the strain, the deformation or the displacement,
are beyond the elastic limit, it requires a change in what we are,
a change in state, not just a change in what we do.
Deep structures, deep dynamics
Reproduction, growth and responsiveness, these characteristic functions of life,
all have deep structures and deep dynamics,
within and beyond the elastic limits of doing
and into the transelastic transformational physiology of being.
The three words, adapt, adopt, adept, reference these deep structures
and deep dynamics of transelastic transformational physiology.
We adapt by changing what we are or what we do.
To change what we do is to operate in a provisional way,
within the elastic range of adaptation.
To change what we are
is to enter into transelastic transformational physiology of being,
as our form of adaptation.
We adapt by furnishing ourselves with augmentations, surroundings, tools,
alliances, affiliations, associations.
We modify our environment.
Uniqueness and complementarity
We become adept when we gain the harmonic, resonant, reverberant
and complementary fit of blended similarities and differences,
which allow uniqueness and complementarity, as a form of order,
associated with life, the biotic, versus uniformity and regularity
as a form of order associated with the abiotic.
Summary continued
Within the foregoing, we have generated a large number of branch points
which require elaboration:
{ The title introduces cancer, as a subject, not yet totally treated.
The title introduces healing principles, as a subject,
we have only begun to develop.
{ The title introduces Orthomolecular Medicine,
which has begun to be treated
in referencing the twenty-four atomic elements
and the naturally occurring compounds
of living molecular biology.
{ The limited repertoire of healing principles
of Allopathic Medicine has been named,
but not fully explained.
For Allopathic Medicine to even have
the limited number of healing effects it does have,
it depends upon bioevents it doesn’t understand and can’t explain.
From a biophysicist’s point of view, chemistry, or more particularly, biochemistry,
involves the patterns of combination of the charge carrier called the electron.
Form artifacts of processes
Chemistry, or biochemistry, is a form artifact of electrical processes.
Chemistry or biochemical reactions are form indicators
of electrical or electronic events.
The electrical processes or electronic events
are form artifacts of magnetic processes or form indicators of magnetic events.
The motion of a charge or the motion of a charge fraction is a statistical indicator
of a combination of forces converging upon and within the charge carrier,
in open system, dissipative field structures,
with characteristic balances of energy inflow and energy outflow.
Orthomolecular processes and events
There are related resonant and reverberant nucleomagnetic charge motions
of the protons or their constituent charge fraction components,
the “up” quarks and the “down” quarks.
So, it is necessary to heed not only the way in which chemistry is an array
of statistical form artifacts of electronic processes, but even the way
in which electrical events are form artifacts of electromagnetic
and nucleomagnetic processes.
The motion of charges and charge fractions
The motion of any and every charge correlates with a magnetic field.
These charge motions are phenomena at the very horizon of physical reality.
When and where physiology begins to progress
upon the frontier of electrical bioevents,
it still has the frontier of magnetic bioevents beyond that.
The nucleomagnetic lies beyond the electromagnetic.
At this juncture in human knowledge, we need humility!
Healing or defending a system of knowledge?
Bruce Holbrook, in his book The Stone Monkey 10, points out
that Allopathic Medicine directs its efforts
towards defending its system of knowledge, more so than hearing, understanding
and believing the untrusted and perhaps un-decoded introspection of the patient.
Lewis Thomas offers an honest corroboration of this state of Allopathy,
in his book, The Youngest Science, Notes of a Medicine Watcher 11.
The circulatory system, an electrical circuit?
In Sweden, at the Karolinska Institute, where the Nobel prizes are determined,
Bjorn Nordenstrom has been progressing an exploration of his findings
regarding the differences in the conduction of electrical currents by healthy tissue,
cancerous tissue and dead tissue.
He has found that the blood is two-hundred (200) times more conductive
than the substances of the blood vessels.
He has then explored the possible measuring of the circulatory system
as being an electrical circuit.
This fluid electrical circuit has capacitance, inductance, impedance, etc.
Probing remote electrodes
Nordenstrom has used his earlier technology
for the removal of biopsy samples from difficultly accessed tissues,
to access these same tissues with electrodes.
He positions the electrodes, one in cancerous tissue, one in healthy tissue
and sees the cancerous tissue break down.
The cathode is an electron donor, just as oxygen is.
A group of physicians and scientists in the southwest of North America
at the U. S. border with Mexico, have been using this electrical field gradient
to dissipate cancerous tissue, tumours 12 .
James V. Sheridan, a chemist, who took his graduate work at Carnegie Tech,
saw a yellow chromate solution transform
into a rhythmic band of rainbow colours,
when he added a particular acid to the yellow chromate solution.
His diligent studies of the work of Debye
added increments of understanding to his insights into the relationship
between chemistry and electrical phenomena.
Like Kekule, (the discoverer of the benzene ring) one night he had a dream.
In the dream, he saw a correlation between the sequence of reactions
and the substances involved in those reactions, and cell respiration,
involved in rhythmic banding.
As a result, he compounded a substance called Entelev.
He applied Entelev to tumours in mice.
The frontiers of life science
Sheridan’s story combines with Nordenstrom’s story.
These two stories combine with the work of Bradford, et al,
in the southwest of North America, at the U. S. border with Mexico.
The context of Sinnott’s work on The Problem of Organic Form,
Plant Morphogenesis and Rupert Sheldrake’s A New Science of Life
and The Presence of the Past, fit together with it all.
It combines with the work of Antoine Bechamp and his microzymas.
It combines with the coccoid structures found by Edourd Boureau,
the palaeontologist.
It combines with the somatids found by Gaston Naessens.
These references are reported by Christopher Bird in his narrative about Naessens.
It combines with Bruce Holbrook’s insights, Lewis Thomas’ insights.
More particularly, it combines with the insights and the understanding
of Orthomolecular Medicine and perhaps beyond that:
Orthomolecular Physiology and Orthomolecular Ecology.
All of this becomes part of a preface, part of a prologue,
part of an introduction, part of a forward, to a story.
In this story, tumours are disappearing.
Cancer is being cured.
But more than that, healing principles are being discovered and used,
healing principles which work.
The text which follows is the completion of this preface, this prologue,
this introduction, this forward, then the story.
From a tape recording of a telephone interview, we have the story of a . . . . .
