Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Hi Andy, I have a question about some of the content that's found in the 2002 edition of Shaw's book that you mention below. Sometimes you suggest taking lysine and argine together to stimulate growth hormone, boost the immune system, heal the gut, etc. However, in Shaw's book he talks about how the aldehyde group of arabinose reacts with lysine, and how that combined molecule can form cross-links to arginine to form pentosidine. The pentosidine can then do all manner of nasty stuff to various body systems including demyeliniation of the brain. [i think that same process is suspected to help cause Alzheimer's.] Is pentosidine formation indeed a possible harmful side effect of taking arginine and lysine together? I realize that taking biotin and B-6 (when possible) could help mediate this, but worry that we're doing a very wrong thing in our recent addition of arginine + lysine to our son's diet. Many thanks in advance for any enlightenment you can offer there. > > BIll Shaw has a new 2008 edition of his book Biological Treatments for Autism and PDD > out finally. > > Which means all those people who have had it on back-order with me will be seeing it in > the next few days. > > Anyone interested in getting it can do so at > > www.noamalgam.com/biologicaltreatments.html > > I just got a shipment of it today, the web page isn't entirely up to date yet.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 I would love to hear Andy's answer. I would note that arginine and lysine are both present in eggs, meat, etc. > > > > BIll Shaw has a new 2008 edition of his book Biological Treatments > for Autism and PDD > > out finally. > > > > Which means all those people who have had it on back-order with me > will be seeing it in > > the next few days. > > > > Anyone interested in getting it can do so at > > > > www.noamalgam.com/biologicaltreatments.html > > > > I just got a shipment of it today, the web page isn't entirely up to > date yet.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 I don't think this happens at a significant rate under physiologically relevant conditions.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Andy, I am on the website noamalgam.com and trying to order 2 books. If I am ordering from that website with PayPal how cn I order 2 books at one time with one shipping cost? I can only get it to allow me to order one book at a time. Thanks, Kelley From: andrewhallcutler <AndyCutler@...> Subject: [ ] New edition of Bill Shaw's book available! Date: Thursday, September 11, 2008, 3:55 AM BIll Shaw has a new 2008 edition of his book Biological Treatments for Autism and PDD out finally. Which means all those people who have had it on back-order with me will be seeing it in the next few days. Anyone interested in getting it can do so at www.noamalgam. com/biologicaltr eatments. html I just got a shipment of it today, the web page isn't entirely up to date yet. What you'll get is the 2008 edition. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Sorry but why? If arginine + lysine can presumably contribute to good processes (increased growth hormones, etc - mentioned below) in the body in the amounts suggested, then why couldn't they also contribute to bad processes like pentosidine formation? How can the pentosidine be measured? There should be a way of finding out if you're right. More immediately though, shouldn't we err on the side of caution here? Goodness knows that arabinose is common in these kids. Also Shaw's suggestion that brains affected by Alzheimer's and autism show similar effects so the possibility of that being due to pentosidine seems pretty plausible. There are a lot of good arguments out there, but without some studies/science to go on, it's hard to know which to believe in.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 Andy, I still could not order 2 books. I ordered them separately. Could you please combine shipping?
