Re: Re: Pau D'Arcy Tea

[Guest guest]

It is my understanding the problems with Lapachol is that they used it in an

isolated form thereby changing how our body reacts to it. I have used Pau d'

Arco in large amounts, on and off for more than 4 years and some times in

amounts equaling 3 eight ounce glasses a day. Interestingly enough it has been

explained to me that it is 'more' than just the Lapachol that is important in

cancer treatment.

Dear,

I've to correct here some points. It is not lapachol having all the properties

you mentioned, it is another nathtoquinone called beta lapachone. This one is

present only in trace in classical tabebuia avellanedae extract. Beta lapachone

is so powerfull that it is in phase II clinical trial. Lapachol was drawn back

at NCI due to toxic reaction like anemia.

my notes:

Pau d'Arco/Tahebo/Lapacho (active ingredient lapachol/beta-lapachone)—

“Major US cancer centers are also looking seriously at pao d'arco:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12188909 "

www./group/brain-research/message/8615

Indications and Synergism:

“I use it with most cancer patients…does not…adversely affect any other

cancer treatment that I use [Gammill, 2/10/10]…I always use it with those

patients who are using taxol/[taxo derivatives/]yew…synergism†(Gammill,

9/21/04); “[10 yrs ago] we started using pau d'arco...we found ourselves

reaching for it more and more. It often seemed to work as a stand alone, it

seemed to help most other therapies and hindered none†Gammill, 8/8/08; " pau

d'arco...I am always recommending it...The main active component is very soluble

in DMSO " Gammill, 11/4/09; may enhance effects of cartilage; very effective

w/most cancers and particularly w/leukemia (including child leukemia) and BC;

also effective w/myeloma enhances immunity

Dosage and administration:

“the dosages need to be much higher than those commonly usedâ€; ideally use

decoction or tincture (rather than tablets or capsules) ; take w/food; may cause

nausea the 1st few days. If you don’t like the taste, try adding lemon juice.

“cytotoxic to gliomas: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9398050

....apoptosis in glioma cells: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15837761â€

Mechanisms of Action:

“alterative, antibiotic, anti-fungal…anti-viral…anodyne, analgesic,

astringent, parasiticide….contains Lapachol, a quinone…antitumorâ€;

“stops mitosis†(Gammill); " I just looked at the chemical components of pau

d'arco and I think that it probably does inhibit ATP production. There are a lot

of quinones in there...Coenzyme Q10 [CoQ10] would nullify this effect and is

likely the target of these exogenous quinones " Mike Golden, D.C. 9/18/08;

" lapachol…shown to be effective at killing cancer cells in the presence of a

detoxication enzyme called NQO1, which is over-expressed in GBM...Lapachol has

been shown to radiosensitize and chemosensitize cancer cells that over-express

NQO1 "
