Guest guest Posted October 13, 2003 Report Share Posted October 13, 2003 Dear Geoff, Yes, I found it very interesting. The bee venom idea keeps coming around, but for some reason it keeps getting pooh-poohed. When you commented, " The chemical in the venom opens the cell wall (a potentially dangerous act for the host BTW, " was that your way of saying you're not in favor of the procedure? Ellen rheumatic Bee Venom Hi Gang! Geoff here. For those of you who've been on the list awhile, you'll remember Lisbeth from New Zealand. Lisbeth was using bee venom for awhile to combat the problem she was having with lupus. She's on to different modalities now with some success, but the bee venom has always stayed with me as curious. A few days ago my bride and I were watching one of those shows on Discovery or The Learning Channel or some such about bees, and especially bee venom. (I know it wasn't a UC broadcast, it was far too interesting and easy not to snooze.) The show was new (2003) so the info was probably not a lot more than 18 months out of date. <BG> Scientists continued, and continue, to be intrigued by the properties of bee venom. People get injected with it (by the bee) and in adequate amounts swelling in joints (inflammation) is significantly reduced or removed, healing process occurs noted by warmth, etc., and people with joint issues get better. Probably not all people or we'd all have hives in our yards and homes. So they've been analyzing the venom with all of our state-of-the-art, know-it-all, " gee whiz " , technology. " They " have isolated 45 chemical compounds in bee venom, a true breakthrough. " They've " only been able to identify 12 of the 45, but that's OK. One of the 12 causes cell walls to " open " revealing the contents of the cells. Let that sink in... 1. Mycoplasma, a cell-wall deficient quasi-bacterium/parasite we know and accept as fact inhabits human cells. 2. These inhabited cells appear normal and healthy to scientific research until such time as the bacterium exits the cell to reproduce after which it re-enters or enters new cells. 3. Our " gee-whiz " technology is unable to identify inhabited cells; the only way we can " detect " mycoplasma is by finding traces of their stray DNA free-floating in blood sera like effluvia in a river downstream from the sewage pipe. 4. The chemical in the venom opens the cell wall (a potentially dange rous act for the host, BTW) and there is a known and recognized healing process characterized by localized fever, etc., and that joint gets better. Thought y'all might find that little factoid interesting.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2003 Report Share Posted October 13, 2003 Ellen, Imagine the position of a T-Cell, roughly 1/100th the size of a regular cell and able to detect the presence of an invasive organism inside that cell but unable to get to the organism through the cell's intact wall. It stands guard and sends out a chemical alarm for help, thousands of T-Cells arrive and they begin trying to dismantle what " science " believes to be a perfectly good cell, since science is unable to " see " the invader. Now imagine that cell's wall is opened by this chemical in the venom and that lonely T-Cell has access to attack the invasive organism, which now has no defense since its entire defense is one of being hidden from view and protected by the victim/host. I see great potential, but I really, really, really hate being stung by anything. ;-) I think we also have potential with mega-doses of IV ascorbic acid, and I do not discount the approach Dr. Mercola has been working on. Those in medicine and research know full well that healing is done by the patient, not the drugs. Geoff Re: rheumatic Bee Venom > > > Dear Geoff, > > Yes, I found it very interesting.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Beverly, it's just a question of timing. I joined the group in early January and at the time there was quite a lot of dicusssion about bee stings. If you go back to posts from the beginning of 2004, you'll find them.
