Guest guest Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hey, This is exactly what I have been finding, too. It's widely known and researched of the more serious symptoms we are experiencing, yet the have these stupid physicians who ONLY KNOW the allergy part. These doctors are doing a great deal of harm. They only know allergies, yet they get up and testify on a witness stand like they are the God of all Doctors and claim the rest of the illnesses are not real. Duh! They are only allergists!!!!! It's just like the one I posted yesterday about the ALLERGISTS from UC saying the only illnesses are allergy. Therefore, anything else must be a result of mass hysteria from people getting info over the internet. What qualifies these allergists to make comments about what they perceive to be psychological matters. My degree is in marketing. I feel I am just as qualified to make a psychological evaluation as an allergist is. My evaluation of the situation is: These allergists have no clue what they are talking about and mentally are experiencing a God Like Complex that makes them comment on issues they know nothing of the first place. Who in the hell do these allergists think they are? Somebody needs to do something about this. Our physicians, primarily the allergists and the toxicologists are OUT OF CONTROL!!!!

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 CLOROX MEDICAL RESEARCHER DISCREDITS CLOROX TOXIC MOLD ADVERTISING -- For immediate release -- August 2, 2005 -- Denver CO -- A medical researcher from Denver, Colorado-based National Jewish Hospital has issued statements that directly contradict health claims made by cleaning-products giant Clorox Corporation. National Jewish Hospital promotes itself as the " Global Leader in Immunological Research " Clorox Corp., with $4.1 billion in revenues, is the manufacturer of Clorox bleach and numerous other brands. Recently, Clorox has been promoting it's flagship bathroom cleaning product -- Tilex Mold and Mildew -- with a series of heavily rotated humorous television ads that feature a homeowner screaming and running out of the house with the tagline: " All homes have mold " . In contrast to the tone of this, on the Tilex website there is reference to the potential health dangers of exposure to certain types of mold, including symptoms of lung tissue damage and memory loss. However, in a December 9, 2004 statement made in a Jefferson County, CO District Court deposition for a case concerning toxic mold damages claimed by a Denver woman (Lake vs. Village Homes, Case No. 03CV4227, Divison 10), National Jewish researcher Dr. Karin Pacheco appeared to discredit the Tilex claims. Dr. Pacheco's qualifications as an expert witness relate to her ongoing medical study of the allergic potential of mold. While under oath, Dr. Pacheco made reference to established links of mold to diseases like asthma, but added that " she wasn't convinced that mold exposure can cause wider, long-term illnesses " . Pacheco's statements are noteworthy, as sources have discovered that funding for at least part of her work comes directly from grants from the Clorox corporation itself. In the Spring of 2004, National Jewish conducted a Clorox-sponsored research study on the allergic effects of mold that had been killed by bleach. The study was conducted by Dr. Pacheco and Lee Newman, MD. Extracts of the mold Aspergillis Fumigatus, a notorious fungi that has been implicated in cases of lung tissue damage and memory loss among other symptoms, was administered to human subjects via skin pricks. Watchdog groups are calling the discrepancy on the public messaging into question. Lee , Director of the Fungal Disease Resource Center, Inc, a Denver, Colorado-based nonprofit supporting victims of toxic mold, had this to say. " While we didn't find the commercial to be too funny, we support the warning that the Clorox corporation is issuing to the public here. There is now an ovewhelming amount of scientific data that supports a link of mold exposures to serious illness. " , commented. " That there is such conflicting information coming out of a well-respected organization like National Jewish is alarming. " Added , " We are calling for a formal clarification of the position of National Jewish Hospital on whether they support the advertising of one of their corporate grantors -- Clorox corporation -- or not.

The unfortunate part is many of them they really believe in what they are doing and have themselves convinced that they are " good " and caring doctors. They don't listen to the extended descriptions of sufferers that go far beyond the " allergy " concept and are indicativee of a long term accumulations of ionophore neurotoxins as a dysregulator of immune response. And it is unfortunate that by acclaiming those more enlightened physicians who have become " mold doctors " merely because they believe and affirm your illness, but who misinterprete the etiology is actually supporting the views of mold denialists who maintain the position that if mold illness is truly an allergy, then any complaints that go beyond the known characteristics of allergic responses must be somatization or wild exaggerations. Even sympathetic allergists and toxicologists must be made aware of Dr Shoemakers concepts for their support to be truly effective. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
