Re: A miracle, autiusm and CSM

[Guest guest]

Wonderful news but not a surprise to me!!!!!! As a teacher I've been saying

for years that many of the problems, I was seeing in students ,had to be

environmental. We were seeing way too many problems in kids that weren't there

years ago!!!

Several months ago an informed Mom brought in her 9 year old son for

evaluation of biotoxin illness. She was moldy and her brother is a

mold inspector (CIH) in land. The prior

I bet cholestrramine would help a LOT of people. Its all about reducing

inflammation and cytotoxic effects of these toxins which we pick up more

than we would like.

If all of those toxins are removed from enterohepatic recirculation quickly,

they can't build up and they won't cause as much damage at the lower level

they are at in the body.

Its also possible the child has a hidden case of Lyme or some infection that

keeps new biotoxins coming in. Some areas are also inherently toxic. There

is a town not far from me that I have to go through sometimes that has seen

flooding that makes it smell moldy and chemical-y. The downtown area of that

town makes me ill.

Imagine if you had to live there..

I think that a good percentage of dementia (who knows how much but lets say

1/4?) in old people would respond to CSM. That might be millions of people

in the US who could regain some of their health and cognitive abilities.

I totally agree. I've been trying to convince my mother that my

grandmother's dementia and Alzheimer's has a connection to mold

exposure but she won't listen. They (the doctors) just keep upping

her anti-depressants and Alzheimer's meds. If they could detox her

system from the molds and other toxins that are rampped(sp.) in their

house she would be fine.

I have been thinking about this issue for quite some time as I

developed mold in my breast after a stainless steel/nickel biopsy

clip was left in my breast. I am so highly allergic to nickel and

have had previous severe reactions from stainless steel/nickel nickel

sutures and from a speculum. The speculum was while the clip was in

my breast. Anyway after reading Mold Warriors or Desperation

Medicine he mentions pfiesteria and says that copper in the chicken

feed killed the food phiesteria eats. Well I got to thinking why

couldn't this happen inside the body with metals. Why couldn't

mercury or nickel alter the environment in the body and cause fungi

to grow in the body. If this is the case and biotoxin illness is the

final outcome Shoemaker's protocol could cure a lot of children. I

may write him a letter and I could even fly there to see him. Does

anyone have any thoughts on this? Am I crazy to think this way?
