Hi,

Can you forward my post yesterday on multiple myeloma to Jack.

If it were me I would have taken SPIRULINA to overcome the anemia. (see

Reference 1) Spirulina may have eliminated his need for a blood transufion.

I would have also taken SPRIULINA to obatin the phycocyanin which emulates

the effect of ERYTHROPOETIN, which has been shown to help in Myeloma patients

and animal studies of Myeloma.(see post yesterday). The immune enhancement

properties listed below also support the use of Spirulina as an adjuvant.

Spirulina is best taken as powder, electrically blended in Lemon cordial drink,

or pineapple juice or fruit juice. If you dont like the taste follow

immediately with a chaser of pure juice to remove the flavor from the mouth.

Hematopoiesis and Immunomodulation

* Effects of polysaccharide and phycocyanin from spirulina on

peripheral

blood and hematopoietic system of bone marrow in mice. by Zhang

Cheng-Wu, et al.. April 1994. Nanjing Univ. China. Pub. in Proc. of

Second Asia Pacific Conf. on Algal Biotech. Univ. of Malaysia. p.58.

China.

C-phycocyanin and polysaccharide were isolated and purified from

spirulina. By using the techniques of colony forming unit-erythroid

(CFU-E) culture of fetal liver cells in mice in vitro, C-phycocyanin

was found to possess high erythropoietin (EPO) activity. Per 12.5ng

C-phycocyanin matched with 850mu EPO. The effects of polysaccharide

and phycocyanin on the periphyeral blood and bone marrow

hematopoietic stem and progentitor cell in normal, irradiated and

anemic mice were studied. These studies demonstrate the unique

capacity of C-phycocyanin and polysaccharide to influence the

differentation and proliferation of committed hematopoietic

progenitor cell. Stimulated recovery by C-phycocyanin and

polysaccharide was observed in leukocyte and bone marrow nucleated

cell counts and the number of CFU-GM colony formation in mice after

single whole-body gamma-ray irradiation. The C-phycocyanin and

polysaccharide can lower the anemic degree of mice combined with

treatment of gamma-ray irradiation and benzohydrazine hydrochloric

acid peritonerl injection.

* Enhancement of antibody production in mice by dietary spirulina. by

Hayashi, et al. June 1994. Kagawa Nutrition Univ. Japan. Pub. in

Journal of Nutr. Science and Vitaminology. Japan.

Mice fed a spirulina diet showed increased numbers of splenic

antibody- producing cells in the primary immune response to sheep red

blood cells (SRBC). However, immunoglobulin G (IgG) - antibody

production in the secondary immune response was hardly affected. The

percentage of phagocytic cells in peritoneal macrophages from the

mice fed spirulina diet, as well as the proliferatiom of spleen

cells, was significantly increased. Addition of a hot-water extract

of spirulina (SHW) to an in vitro culture of spleen cells markedly

increased proliferation of these cells, whereas culture of thymus

cells was scarcely affected. The spirulina extract also significantly

enhanced interleukin-1 (IL-1) production from peritoneal macrophages.

Addition to the in vitro spleen cell culture of SHW as well as the

supernatant of macrophages stimulated with SHW resulted in

enhancement of antibody production, that is, an increase of the

number of PFC. These results suggest that spirulina enhances the

immune response, particularly the primary response, by stimulating

macrophage functions, phagocytosis, and IL-1 production.

* Phagocytic potential of feline macrophages after exposure to a water

soluble extract of spirulina in vitro. by M. Qureshi, et al. January

1996. Pub. in Immunopharmacology. in press. USA.

Bronchoalveolar lavage macrophages isolated from cats were cultured

on glass coverslips. Macrophages were exposed to a water soluble

extract of spirulina platensis in concentration range of 0 to 60 mcg

per ml for two hours. Spirulina extract exposure did not cause

significant macrophage cytotoxicity over untreated controls.

Macrophage monolayers from treated and control cultures were

incubated with sheep red blood cells (SRBC) as well as viable e.

coli. The percentages of phagocytic macrophages for both of these

particular antigens were higher (a two-fold increase in SRBC

phagocytosis and over 10% increase in e. coli uptake) in cultures

treated with various concentrations of spirulina extract. However,

the numbers of either types of particles internalized by phagocytic

macrophage were not different between the control and treated

cultures. These data which showed that spirulina platensis extract

enhances macrophage phagocytic function imply that dietary spirulina

supplementation may improve the disease resistance potential in cats.

* Spirulina extracts enhances chicken macrophage functions after in

vitro exposure. by M. Qureshi, et al. 1995. Pub. in Jour. Nutritional

Immunology, No. 3 (4) 35-45. USA.

The effects of spirulina platensis extract exposure on chicken

macrophages were examined. Sephadex-elicited abdominal exudate

macrophage monolayers were exposed to varying concentration (10 to 40

mcg/ml) of spirulina for 1 to 16 hours. Spirulina treated macrophages

exhibited phenotypic changes in terms of increased spreading and

vacuolization with minimal cytotoxicity. Percentage of phagocytic

macrophages for unopsonized sheep red blood cells (SRBC) and average

number of internalized SRBC was significantly higher in spirulina

treated macrophages as compared to the sham treated controls.

However, phagocytosis of opsonized SRBC was not effected by spirulina

treatment. Macrophage cultures exposed to spirulina produced a factor

in their culture supernant with tumorcidal potential which was

similar in reactivity to the one produced by macrophages after

exposure to lipopolysaccharide. The ability of splenic natural killer

cells to kill tumor cell targets was not affected by spirulina

treatment. These findings suggest that spirulina exposure enhances

selected effector functions of cells of the chicken immune system

after in vitro exposure.

* Immune enhancement potential of spirulina in chickens. by M. Qureshi,

et al. August 1994. Poultry Science Assoc. Dept. of Poultry Science,

North Carolina State, NC. Pub. in Journal of Poultry Science Vol 73,

S1. p.46. USA.

Effects of spirulina on the immune function of chickens were

examined. Macrophage cultures treated with a water soluble extract of

spirulina exhibited enhanced phagocytosis and induced tumorcidal

factor secretion. In the second study, 0, 10, 100 and 10,000ppm

spirulina in corn/soy diets were fed to Leghorn chickens. Larger

thyus glands, higher NK activity and CBH response were observed in

the 10,000ppm spirulina treated chickens. Percent phagocytic

macrophages and secondary antibody response were also greater than

non-treated chickens. The data suggests spirulina exposure improves

immune performance of chickens without adversely affecting other

performance characteristics.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Immunomodulary effects of spirulina supplementation in chickens. by

M.

Qureshi, et al. May 1995. North Carolina State. Pub. in Proc. of 44th

Western Poultry Disease Conference, pp 117-120. USA.

Chicken macrophages exposed to a water-soluble spirulina extract show

enhanced phagocytic activity in vitro suggesting activation of

mononuclear phagocytic system function. Furthermore, dietary

supplementation of Spirulina (1,000 ppm to 10,000 ppm) improved

thymic weights, enhanced CBH response, increased tumor cell killing

by NK cells and doubled the macrophage phagocytic potential over

chickens fed a basal diet. Chicks on 1,000 ppm Spirulina diet cleared

significantly more E. Coli from circulation at 30 and 40 minutes post

i.v. inoculation. Similiar reduction was seen in clearing bacteria

from spleen after 80 minutes post i.v. inoculation of Staph. Aureus

in chicks fed 10,000 ppm over controls. Chicks in groups from 1,000

ppm to 16,000 ppm Spirulina treatments showed enhanced CBH response.

Chicks in 1,000 ppm group exhibited enhanced E. Coli clearance

between 30 to 60 minutes and decreased splenic bacterial counts at 80

minutes post inoculation. These studies imply Spirulina enhances

several immunological end points in chickens both during in vitro and

in in vivo exposures.

* Immunostimulating activity of lipopolysaccharides from blue-green

algae. by L. Besednova, et al. 1979. Pub. in Zhurnal Mikrobiologii,

Epidemiologii, Immunobiologii, 56(12) pp 75-79. Russia.

The whole cells of blue-green algae and lipopolysaccharides (LPS)

isolated from these cells were shown to stimulate the production of

macro- and microglobulin anti-bodies in rabbits. The macro- and

microphage indices in rabbits increased significantly after the

injection of LPS isolated from blue-green algae 24-48 hours before

injecting the animals with a virulent Y. pseudotuberculosis strain.

Besides, the inhibiting action of this strain on the migration of

phagocytes to the site of infection was abolished immediately after

the injection. The use of the indirect hemaglutination test allowed

to provide the absence of close antigenic interrelations between

blue-green algae and the following organisms: Spirulina platensis,

Microcystis aeruginosa, Phormidium africanum and P. uniccinatum.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Study on effect and mechanism of polysaccharides of spirulina on body

immune function improvement. by G. Baojiang, et al. April 1994. South

China Normal Univ. China. Pub. in Proc. of Second Asia Pacific Conf.

on Algal Biotech. Univ. of Malaysia. pp 33-38. China.

Polysaccharides of spirulina, at the dosage of 150-300 mg/kg, by

injection or taking orally, can increase the phagocyte percentage and

phagocytic index of abdominal macrophage, the percentage of

T-lymphocyte and haemolysin content in the peripheral blood of mouse.

These results demonstrate polysaccharides can improve both the

nonspecific function of cellular immunity and the specific humoral

immunity. The mechanism seems related to the fact that

polysaccharides can enhance reproductive ability of marrowcyte,

growth of thymus and spleen, biosynthesis of serum protein, and that

polysaccharide can eliminate the inhibition effect of inhibitive

circular phosphamide on immune system of body.

Iron Bioavailability and Prevention of Anemia

* Availability of iron to rats from spirulina, a blue-green algae. by

P.

and E. Shubert. 1986. Pub. in Nutrition Research Vol 6,

85-94. USA.

Spirulina contains a highly available form of of iron. It is unusual

to find plant-derived iron that is highly available. Absorption of

iron by rats and humans has been found to be highly correlated.

Spirulina fed rats absorbed iron more than or equal to rats fed iron

from an iron supplement, ferrous sulfate. In comparison, absorption

of iron from potatoes and whole wheat bread is about half of ferrous

sulfate. It appears spirulina is a fairly concentrated source of

available iron.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

-

* Clinical experiences of administration of spirulina to patients with

hypochronic anemia. by T. Takeuchi, et al. 1978. Tokyo Medical and

Dental Univ. Japan.

Eight women had been limiting their meals to stay thin and were

showing hypochronic anemia - lower than normal blood hemoglobin

content. They took four grams of spirulina after each meal. After 30

days blood hemoglobin content increased 21% from 10.9 to 13.2, a

satisfactory level, no longer considered anemic.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kidney Detoxification

* Effect of spirulina on the renal toxicity induced by inorganic

mercury

and cisplatin. by H. Fukino, et al. 1990. Pub. in Eisei Kagaku, 36:5,

1990. Japan.

Kidney toxicity caused by mercury was suppressed by feeding spirulina

to rats. A water soluble extract of Spirulina, containing

phycocyanin, the natural blue pigment, was examined. Renal (kidney)

toxicity in rats caused by para-Aminophenol (pain reliever) and

Cisplatin (anti-cancer) was significantly reduced by the phycocyanin

extract of spirulina. Researchers concluded that phycocyanin plays a

major role in the protective effect of spirulina against renal

failure caused by mercury and pharmaceutical drugs, and that

spirulina might be applicable to the reduction of general renal

disfunction.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

* The effect of spirulina on nephrotoxicity in rats. by Y. Yamane, et

al. 1988. Chiba Univ. Presented at Annual Symposium of the

Pharmaceutical Society of Japan, April 15, 1988. Japan.

Heavy metals and pharmaceutical drugs are toxic to the kidney. The

effects of spirulina on acute nephritis caused by inorganic mercury

and pharmaceutical drugs were examined in rats. High mercury dosage

caused nephrotoxcity in laboratory rats, measured by rising blood

urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine, urinary enzymes alkaline

phosphatase (ALP) and glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT). When

rats were fed a diet of 30% spirulina, these factors significantly

decreased, showing kidney detoxification. Three groups of rats were

given pharmaceutical drugs used by humans: para-Aminophenol

(anodyne/pain reliever), Gentamicin (anti-biotic) and Cisplatin

(anti-cancer). Once again rats improved. The study suggests spirulina

may have a beneficial effect for humans suffering from heavy metal

poisoning and that kidney side effects may decrease when spirulina is

taken with the administration of drugs. Side effects limit the dosage

of drugs and slow down recovery, so shorter recovery times may be

possible.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

* Current knowledge on potential health benefits of spirulina. by Amha

Belay and Yoshimichi Ota. 1993. Pub. in Journal of Appl. Phycology,

5:235-241. USA.

Spirulina is a microscopic algae, produced commercially and sold as a

food supplement around the world. Until recently, interest in

spirulina was mainly in its nutritive value. This is a critical

review of data on therapeutic effects of Spirulina, ranging from

reduction of cholesterol and cancer to enhancing the immune system,

increasing intestinal lactobacilli, reducing nephrotoxicity by heavy

metals and drugs, and radiation protection.

* Effectiveness of spirulina algae as food for children with

protein-energy malnutrition in a tropical environment. by P.

Bucaille. 1990. University Sabatier, Toulouse, France. Oct.

1990. Zaire. (in French).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Spirulina in Jiangxi China. by Miao Jian Ren. 1987. Academy of

Agricultural Science. Presented at Soc. Appl. Algology, Lille France

Sep. 1987. China.

In Nanjing Childrens Hospital, 27 children, 2-6 years old, recovered

in a short period from bad appetite, night sweats, diarrhea and

constipation from a baby nourishing formula containing 1.5g

spirulina, 12g baked barley sprout, Vitaimn B1 and Zinc. The clinical

effects showed spirulina is a genuine health food for children.

To the group:

I would like to offer thanks to Cliff for his valuable service in his

research about use of, and the testimonials for Flax Oil and Cottage Cheese

in the treatment of cancer. I was recently told by my nephew in Phoenix, AZ

about two chaps whom he told about FO / CC, and who recovered from prostate

cancer. This is only anecdotal eveidence of course and must be taken as

such. However, Dr.Johanna's regimen of Flax Oil and Cottage Cheese is

certainly good nutrition for general health considering our body's need for

calcium, and the fact that about 75% of the heart muscle's energy must come

from fat. ( oil ). Is not ideal nutrition necessary for good health and an

aid in theprevention of cancer ? I think so.
