No, I didn’t know tetracycline was such a good chelator. It is really good for iron and also pretty good for calcium according to what I read last night.

Thanks for mentioning it.

The Lamas study did not address their diabetes, from which one could conclude that eliminating lead and cadmium from the bloodstream does not help you much if you still have diabetes.

I wonder whether taking out the calcium does anything good for you at all.

If your arteries are clogged then it should.

This paper claims that EDTA chelation can reverse calcification; " Calcifications disappeared completely in 62.5% of the patients in the study group and partially in 22.5%; calcifications partially disappeared in only 15% of the patients in the control group, and none displayed a complete disappearance."

Efficacy of reversal of aortic calcification by chelating agents - PMC (nih.gov)

Another interesting claim in the paper is that calcification is caused by nanobacteria and therefore tetracycline should be used as part of the chelation therapy in order to kill the nanobacteria. Appears that the Lamas study did not use any antibiotics which may have contributed to the ineffective result.

I’m not personally committed to any of these hypotheses - I don’t know enough to say - but I think they’re worth considering.

I did buy doxycycline 50mg from india last time and have not started taking them yet. I know they inhibit MMP and are supposed to be good for heart disease, but didn’t know completely why. These papers help. I don’t like the idea of taking it long term, I’m taking so much goofy stuff already.

I’ve found another chelating agent that is cheap and safe. Pectasol. I know, it’s for cancer. But here is a really good read:

The alginates are in another product from Eco Nugenics called glypho detox. It’s intended to be used to remove glyphosate and other pesticides from your blood, but works well for heavy metals too:

I’m going to do a few months on this and see what happens. I don’t see the down side. Challenges are expensive and my daughter and sister in law say it is a big part of the reason they survived their cancer.

I’ve read about modified citrus peels (MCP). I do not know what, and how they modify. Would ordinary peels have the same benefit?

This youtuber styling herself as The Biblical Nutritionist recommends the water used to boil peels. She refers to a news article citing a study from the Leicester School of Pharmacy (1:57). Am trying to hunt down the original source. Tangerine peels are the specific citrus fruit.

Very interesting. Not sure why she threw away the pulp in the juice. I don’t see any harm here at all, though I appreciate the standard product of pectasol. I’m not sure why it’s so expensive since it’s made of peels and the juice makers probably love getting rid of them by the truck.

MCP is modified just by heat. Not too much and not too little. It makes the pectin smaller so it will be absorbed better.

I know the “paper” is just pretty much written by eco nugenics as a way to get the word out about their product. I’ll try to do some searching and see if I can find somebody that will do a challenge for me using DMSA, which I’m using every 2 weeks anyway. Then I’ll go about 3 months, twice a day and see in the end if anything changes. My winter project. Harvest is over, but we’re still catching up with what we let go in order to get it done.

Poking around brought me to the Dutch website below:

In collaboration with an organization that is part of Nature’s Defence, a British holding company, these investigators have been involved in developing fruit extracts containing high concentrations of CYP1B1 active compounds, and a number of hydrophilic and lipophilic compounds yielding cytotoxic metabolites have been identified and made available over the counter. There do not appear to have been clinical trials reported, either randomized or otherwise, and the identity of the compounds appears proprietary. However, these extracts have been used by individuals in the belief that the extracts are a significant approach to therapy for existing cancer; some interesting anecdotal results have been collected, and 5 case reports have been published.33 All involved advanced and/or terminal cancer cases that included melanoma, lung, prostate, bladder, and breast. In all cases the positive response was rapid and dramatic and, for some, apparently curative. Unfortunately, these results, although published in a peer-reviewed publication, have surely gone almost entirely unnoticed because the journal is not monitored by Medline (PubMed) and probably is absent from many library subscription lists.

Typing “englisch” in the search box yielded some English articles, among them:

They refer to a commercial Salvestrol product.

Another doc with five different cases:

Searching shows that commercial Salvestrol is readily available. They seem to be as expensive as MCP. Searching for the salvestrol content of tangerine peels has, so far, yielded no result.

I did read a book on salvestrols, but that is not the mechanism I was thinking was the most important here. MCP is an inhibitor of galectin 3, in fact it affects all the galectins.

I was wrong about using heat to make the MCP. It looks like they use ph:

This is a good review of the cancer fighting properties of MCP:

I doubt the lady in your video was getting MCP in any quantity so it probably is Salvestrol in that case.
