Re: Zoonotic) Virus + Chiari + Raw Milk + asthma

[Guest guest]

Hey, this is FASCINATING...thanks for the post, Elyse!

I just read a looooong article (called " Parainfluenza Virus-5: A new

paradigm and a serious host challenge " ) regarding this find at...

http://www.ncf-net.org/library/PIV5HostChallenge-0606.htm

.... it was put out by the National CFIDS Foundation, Inc.

Medical Committee on May 31, 2006...

In this article, some key items of interest to listmembers may that

rubulaviruses have also been associated with Chiari malformation, and it

also has a quote from Dr. Bell who wrote " Risk Factors Associated with

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in a Cluster of Pediatric Cases. "

Dr. Bell said... " Highly significant positive associations were observed for

the presence of other family members with symptoms of CFS, ingestion of raw

milk either recently or in the past, ingestion of raw eggs, and history of

allergies or asthma. Exposure to hot air heating, the presence of cats on

the property, and appendicitis also had significant positive associations

with CFS. The presence of dogs in the house was inversely associated with

CFS. " As a result of their study, these authors concluded that, " These data

suggest that a combination of host and environmental factors, including an

infectious agent or agents, are involved in the etiology of CFS. "

Dr. Bell was a key player in one of the books Dr. Goldberg recommended the

for the listmembers to read several years ago.
