Re: Candida/Aldehyde detox pathway and the Molybdenum Connection

[Guest guest]

-Mandi and thanks for this .You'll never believe this but I'd

recently worked this out myself ,thinking it may be a way for Katy

to handle gut treatments and probiotics without becoming so sick ie

severe allergy symptoms,jerking and elevated liver enzymes.I have

been slowly introducing and upping these supplements,thiamine has

also been suggested to me and I've also added manganese.

Katy seems to be doing very well, she presented a small power point

presentation she had produced to a full school hall

yesterday ,speaking loudly and clearly reading what she had written

that was on a screen the other side of the hall.She had no prompting

and spoke for 2-3 minutes.I couldn't tell you what she said as I was

overcome with pride and joy.

Can't believe I got something right for once !

Dr. Orion Truss, or who have seen quotes by others from his work,

will already have been alerted to his assertion that much of the harm

done by Candida results from its waste product, acetaldehyde, which

in turn can affect the metabolic, neurological, endocrine, and immune

systems. Further, that few chemicals can create so much havoc in the

body as acetaldehyde can. It may interfere with the receptors for

acetylcholine which is supposedly the major neurotransmitter in the

corpus callosum.

ProMotion Publishing, San Diego, California, states that " Candida is

responsible for flooding the system with an accumulation of toxic

acetaldehydes. Acetaldehydes are known to poison tissues --

accumulating in the brain, spinal cord, joints, muscles and tissues. "

> Dr. Cooter then goes on to describe how he learned from a

chiropractor, Dr. Carol [this name came up on this List way

back] that molybdenum -- a mineral -- not a medication, but a

nutrient, had a blanket reputation for breaking down yeast by-

products into forms that the body could excrete. Coincidentally, Dr.

Cooter read the monogram by Dr. Walter Schmitt " Molybdenum for

Candida Albicans Patients and Other Problems " through Dr. .

[interestingly, these are all chiropractor, Drs. Roschlitz, ,

and Schmitt.]

> I'm beginning to see a glimmer of some possible connections here.

Dr. Roschlitz's work, and Dr. Walter Schmitt's, although slightly

different, seems similar to me to the principle of Dr. Nambupridad's

work with NAET, and perhaps then, holding the substance, when the

body is worked on through one of their modalities, might not seem so

strange after all. I think I see a common denominator here. Worth

exploring? Perhaps....

>

> Back to Dr. Cooter and Dr. Schmitt: " Molybdenum is chemically

responsible for breaking down acetaldehyde into acetic acid.

Acetaldehyde cannot be excreted from the body; it accumulates. Acetic

acid can be, though, and the body naturally removes it or changes it

into acetyl coenzyme A, a major player in the body's energy

system.... Acetaldhyde accumulations in tissue are responsible for

weakness in muscles, irritation, and PAIN. "

> And now for the good part (g), directly quoted from Dr. Walter

Schmitt:

>

> " Chemical aldehydes are best known as fragrances. " [shall I repeat

that?] " Chemical aldehydess are best known as fragrances.... Ethanol,

or drinking alcohol, is also precessed to acetaldehyde. ...the body

has an enzyme which breaks down the aldehydes to less toxic

substances. This enzyme is aldehyde oxidase, or sometimes, aldehyde

dehydrogenase. Aldehydes encountered dietarily or environmentally or

produced in the body must be handled by aldehyde oxidase metabolic

pathways.

>

> Acetaldehyde is a paraticularly toxic substance which, in addition

to being produced by threonine and ethanol, is a product of the

metabolism (i.e. fermentation) of carbohydrate in yeast -- hence the

Candida connection. Acetaldehyde is thought to be the major source of

tissue damage in alcoholics rather than ethanol itself. The

conversion of acetaldehyde into acetic acid " for this reaction to

occur, threonine to acetaldehyde to acetic acid to acetyl coenzyme A,

NAD (niacine amide) is required, and aldehyde oxidase is dependent of

riboflavin, iron, and molybdenum. These forgoing nutrients could be

helpful to Candida albicans patients, and others who are sensitive to

various fragrances and airborne odors. Those patients with aldehyde

sensitivity are incredibly sensitive to any type of fragrance.

>

> By coincidence, (or is it?) there's a little squibb in the

newsletter from the Environmental Health Association of Dallas on

fragrance. " Perfume today is not made from flowers but from toxic

chemicals..... More than 4,000 chemicals are used in fragrances. Of

these, 95 percent are made from petroleum. Some toxic chemicals found

in fragrances: toluene, ethanol, acetone, formaldehyde, limonene,

benzene derivatives, methylene chloride, and many others known to

cause cancer, birth defects, infertility, nervous system damage, or

other injuries.... Exposure to scented products can cause exhaustion,

weakness, 'hay fever', dizziness, difficulty concentrating,

headaches, rashes, swollen lymph glands, muscle aches and spasms,

heart palpitations, nausea, stomach cramps, vomiting, asthma attacks,

neuromotor dysfunction, seizures, and loss of consciousness. " This

was reprinted from No Perfume Means Healthier Air brochure, Breath of

Fresh Air Battleaxe, Oakland, California.

>

> And from another source comes another connection -- from Dr.

Atkins' newsletter: Dr. Atkins is writing about Pantethine which he

prescribes to his Crohn's Disease and Colitis patients, with

acknowledgement to Dr. Melvin Werbach for Dr. Werbach's study that

demonstrated that people with colitis have markedly decreased

Coenzyme A activity if the mucosal surface of their colons, even when

the blood levels of pantothenic acid are normal. Dr. Atkins

concluded, based on his success with these patients of his, that

Pantethine bypasses the block in converting Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic

Acid) to Coenzyme A. But also, that Pantethine is a growth factor for

lactobacillus bulgaricus and bifidobacterium that we know help

control yeast overgrowth (and Dr. Cooter also speaks of it in his

book). Candida, according to antibody studies done at the Atkins

Center, is involved in more than 80 percent of all cases of Crohn's

and Colitis.

>

> And for autoimmune problems, Dr. Atkins states, " For all

conditions that a doctor might prescribe prednisone -- allergies,

asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, lupus, and olther autoimmune

diseases, pantethine can be safely, effectively substituted. I

routinely use it for all of those conditions on hundreds of my

patients, and it's valuable in weaning them off steroidal drugs, or

certainly in allowing a lower dose....

>

> By upping body levels of a body enzyme, pantethine counteracts

brain fog, certain allergic sensitivities, and some consequences of

alcoholism. (And here it is --) ... In people with candidiasis, the

enzyme fights off a toxic byproduct called acetaldehyde, which is

thought to cause brain fog, often-suffered but rarely diagnosed....

Acetaldehyde also is suspected of being responsible for some symptoms

of alcoholism, including alcoholic heart muscle disease. The

pantethine-stimulated enzyme also detoxifies formaldehyde, an all too

frequent offender for chemically sensitive individuals. "

>

> In summary, Dr. Atkins is saying that Pantethine, without toxic

consequences, can reduce cholesterol, counuteract oxidation,

stimulate the growth of friendly bacteria, and fight allergies,

inflammation, autoimmune disruptions, and alcoholism.

>

> In case you wondered, Dr. Cooter and Dr. Schmtt suggest 300

micrograms of Molybdenum in three divided doses per day, and further

suggests staying on it for at least 4 months.. Dr. Atkins suggests

450 to 900 miligrams daily of Pantethine with an equal amount of

Pantethenic Acid.

>>Hi Chriso

Does he get Moly in his general supps? I always have given Sam extra - he gets 300mcg per day when we are not chelating, thats not a high dose IMHO

Mandi x

hi there, very interesting info. So does all this info mean

we can easily just give this molybdenum daily long term , or

during treatment of yeast? Is there some test we need to do

to be sure we have this candida prob?

We are facing a yeast issue right now with loads of supps

being given, could i give this too?

>>Nope not IMHO, actually I am giving more because I forgot the MinerAll lol

Sorry only read your post Mandi but note you are giving 300mcg a day

I am giving Cian 1000mcg a day - and not chelating is this a problem?
