Dr Robert Gamble Interview on CD

"What is my immune system telling me NOW?"

That should be your chief health concern. Solve that problem and MOST chronic health conditions can get relieved. On the other hand, the Immune System shows specific "signs" and symptoms that, if disregarded, lead to chronc disease conditions. *

Listen to Dr Richard Petras speak of the importance of a Strong Immune System.

Threats to your Immune System

In January 2001, the Center for Disease Control randomly selected individuals from various states across the United States. The purpose was to allow these people to participate in toxicity tests. The results? Even the authorities were stunned. The CDC found that 100% of the participants had 100% of the toxins they were being tested for. Toxins are found everywhere. They are stored en masse in your fat cells.

Your Reactions?

Reaction: “I can’t stop living because toxins are everywhere. I must go on with life and avoid what I can.” Wrong: You will stop living. Just not right away. Chronic diseases and their symptoms (chronic = lingering, repetitive, won’t go away) make life miserable BEFORE SHOWING more recognizable disease-specific symptoms. Chronic disease is expensive (job/time loss, increased health insurance premiums, prescriptions, stimulants for energy/fatigue, doctor and health care expenses, dental care expenses, over the counter aids, supplements expense, clean water and organic food expenses)… Chronic disease shows one or more “common” immune impairment symptoms LONG before official diagnosis of any disease: fatigue and energy loss, depression, weight problems, inability to focus, pain, premature aging symptoms, loss of stamina, dental problems, frequent cold, skin reactions and rashes, slow healing… One or more of these often PRECEDE the diagnosis of a specific chronic disease. In other words, the disease is developing LONG before diagnosis and it is (or they are) creating problems for people BEFORE people or doctors even suspect a more serious disease is growing. Ex. Breast cancer development often has as much as a previous 5 year history of development before the patient or the doctors suspect its presence in a person. Similar time frames are found for other chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart diseases of many types, allergy development, etc….

Toxins are a major "stimulant" to the production of chronic disease.

Reaction: "I cant do anything about toxins in my environment" Wrong: Yes, you MUST. And, better yet… YES you can… See Below on what the body uses to deal with immune system repair and modulation. Incidentally… 50% of the pollutants in the world were created since 1900. There are about 500 toxic chemicals in human tissues not found before 1940… There are more than 40 pharmaceutical drugs in our drinking water NOW… There are 18 DANGEROUS chemicals, including cancer-causing factors, in the average carpet… Other cancer-causing agents are found throughout our homes in closets, cleaners, kitchen, bathrooms, garage, etc…

Massive amounts of chemicals and sewage are still being dumped in waters around the world, which affects us all. Spain dumps 76% of waste into the Mediterranean untreated. Italy dumps 60% of its raw sewage in the Mediterranean untreated.

Oxidative Stress: This is the single most serious threat to human life in today’s society. Oxidative stress causes degenerative diseases (heart diseases, cancers, diabetes) and it is the factor which accelerates the premature aging of adults. The formation of “free radicals” occurs as a natural part of life and cellular function. The body’s immune system is designed to quench free radicals and stop their damaging effects.

Oxidative stress occurs when the formation of free radicals exceeds the body’s capacity to neutralize them. Free radical production occurs as the result of the following life factors

• Physical stress (including “working out”)
• Environmental stress (radiation, air pollution, food and water contaminants, excessive sunshine etc.)
• Inadequate nutrition (especially foods which destroy nutritional building factors, foods which supply stress elements, foods which contribute to chronic disease must control certain types of food intake or suffer ex. Everyone knows an obvious example in that diabetics, etc.)
• Pharmaceutical drugs: to be defined as a drug, a substance must first be shown to have a capacity to kill human life at certain levels of intake.
• Medication resistant bacteria
• Emotional stress
• Psychological stress
• Toxins (see above)

Free Radical Fact: It is estimated that every cell in your body takes about 10,000 free radical hits to your DNA every day.

Glycobiology and Free Radical the Burden of Our Bodies

The field of Glycobiology produced Four TOP PRIZES in the last eight awarded. This issue of free radicals became the immediate application for glyconutrients because they are responsible for handling the free radical burden. For years scientists have known that the body needs proper nutrition, be it vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, or amino acids. Now, scientists believe glyconutrition is an entirely new nutrient. Every cell needs the eight necessary glyconutrients listed in this site. You really cannot take too much glyconutrition. Most of us have multiple dysfunctions going on in our body at the same time. The body decides which is most crucial with the limited amount of resources it has to deal with. So a rash may not go away, if your body is using the glyconutrition to combat a tumor you don’t know about or some other dysfunction. A nutritional deficiency in glyconutrition today will become a clinical event tomorrow…

1. The immune system of our bodies is designed to readily identify and destroy what doesn’t belong to the body. By doing so, it restores health. It does so by a rather complicated chain of events. If the immune system is compromised, your health is jeopardized…

This informational website is specific to signs and symptoms of potential immune system compromise.*

2. The immune system is understood to be dysfunctional when certain disease symptoms simply do not go away. Do you suffer from chronic disease symptoms (chronic = lingering, won’t go away, constantly a problem)? OR, does your immune system seems to be doing nothing while viruses, bacteria, or tumors are gaining ground, getting stronger, nothing seems to be touching them…then your immune system is dysfunctional.

3. Such dysfunctional immune functioning is called immunodeficiency.

4. What kinds of conditions result from immunodeficiency?

• Viral Infections
• Bacterial infections
• Bronchitis
• Colds
• Flu
• Ear infections
• Candida (Yeast infections)
• Hepatitis
• Urinary Tract infections
• Shingles
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Tuberculosis
• Sinusitis
• HIV
• Strep infections
• Herpes Simplex B and C
• Gulf War Syndrome (symptoms of disordered immune problem also)
• Fibromyalgia (symptoms of disordered immune problem also)

5. The immune system can suffer from what is often called a disordered immune system, also called autoimmunity… This occurs when the body’s immune system begins to treat body tissues as if they were alien…and sets out to destroy them.

6. What kinds of conditions are due to autoimmunity?

• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Diabetes: Type I and Type II
• Lupus
• Scleroderma
• Psoriasis

The Eight Keys to Your Immune System Four TOP Prizes have been awarded in Medicine out of the last eight in the field of Glycobiology

Glyconutrition is the focus of the discoveries made in this field. Glyconutrition is the answer to what was often called the “missing link” in cell studies. (See below) It was discovered that glyconutrition is used by the body to modulate BOTH the disordered immune system. It is now clear to medical science that the newly discovered glyconutrients are the key elements for modulating the immune system. The “eight keys” are the eight glyconutrition sugars found on every cell of your body. They are:

1. Galactose 2. Fucose 3. Mannose 4. N-acetyl Glucosamine       5. N-acetyl Neuraminic Acid 6. Xylose 7. N-acetyl Galactosamine 8. Glucose

Look at the prediction just over a decade ago provided in the Scientific American issue of January, 1993.

The day may not be far off when anti-adhesive drugs possibly in the form of pills that are both sugar coded and sugar loaded, will be used to prevent and treat infections, inflammation, the consequences of heart attacks, and perhaps even cancer.” Scientific American - January, 1993

Notice that the “pills” that could be used were sugar coded (NOT sugar coated) and sugar loaded (loaded with sugar of some kind). That prediction is coming true today…

The last decade has witnessed the rapid emergence of the concept of the sugar code of biological information. Indeed, monosaccharides represent an alphabet of biological information similar to amino acids and nucleic acids, but with unsurpassed coding capacity.” - Acts Anatomica 161/1-4/98

“Knowledge of sugars’ functions could affect medicine far beyond improving drug doses and fighting cancer. Researchers are looking into how sugars influence the development of Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and infectious diseases like AIDS and herpes, to name a few. Sugars also seem poised to influence stem cell biology, organ transplantation, and tissue engineering. If these promising areas of research prove successful, ‘sugar pill’ will take on a whole new meaning.” “Glycomics” by Erika Jonietz - Technology Review, October 2001

Then there was the historic medical “earthquake”, initiated in part, by the research done surrounding glyconutritional supplementation. Read what change suddenly took place in the health world…

Is it any wonder that in July 2002, the publication that serves as the mouthpiece for the AMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), reversed its historic stand concerning supplementation? Prior to this date, the AMA had taken a position that supplementation was NOT necessary for human life. However, in that historic reversal, JAMA made it clear that supplementation was necessary for human life and well-being. Additionally, both Scientific American and Newsweek (January 2003) endorsed, by publication, a food “pyramid” that included supplements on the pyramid itself. The push for such new endorsements came as a result, in large part, from the research affecting glyconutrition. -information supplied in Miracle Sugars by professional researcher, Rita Elkins, M.

7. Components of the Immune System and how they are fortified:

Neutrophils (phagocytes): These immune defense cells are the first immune cells to arrive on the scene of an infection. They are small and very mobile, though NOT very sophisticated. As a result, they move into an infected area in large numbers, “eat up” bacteria and dead tissue, but often cannot find and kill organisms with stealth capabilities.

They are the most abundant immune cells in the body. They kill off many of the unsophisticated viruses and bacteria. When they die, they release an enzyme that dissolves cells in their immediate area, creating pus.

When they are functioning as they should, they get tot the infected area in about 30 minutes. They are designed to consume large numbers of invaders so that the “heavier artillery” of the immune system won’t be burdened with large numbers of invaders but can address the strength of the invaders.

Glyconutrients increase the magnitude and speed with which Neutrophils are mobilized, in addition to their effectiveness as killers of invading organisms…
