The Lab Report

1. [Immunology] - The project was scheduled to start earlier, but complication in single patient studies forced the delay. The problem is the manner inwhich infections adjust and adapt to the bodies immunity. For example, under typical flu's and colds, hot orange juice or lemon aid (with honey) is often recommended as a curative. While. most cold medicines (OTC - over the counter) don't act directly on the infection but work to alleviate the symptoms. Under more severe infections like SARS, Hatavirus and Bird Flu the infections are actually promoted by the standard approach. What appears to happen is that the fatal infections don't just occur, but incubate as a small population among common infections adapting to the environment. Then when the fatal infections become the main population, we tend to treat it as the common. This is what occurred with SARS. SARS had actually arrived in Toronto three years earlier as a severe flu or cold. People who were infected were sick for long periods of time with frequent re-occurances. The infection periods (pre-SARS) we up to one month in length with re-occurances frequent. It appears that people don't see the development stage of fatal infections because they look just like a serious cold. This is what happen with SARS, the pre-SARS stage (which began three years prior) was dismissed (at the time) as a serious cold - but not fatal. The same pattern may occur with bird flu, with a serious flu/cold appearing x years prior to the fatal bird flu's actual arrival.
   
2. [Neurology] - Using indications from gi system reprogramming, other clues to neurological reprogramming are being looked at. This includes addiction, physical and psychological. Physical addictions (like nicotine and heroine or even caffeine) are some neurochemical stimulants that the brain can become dependent on. Physical addiction appears to occur when a regular supply of a neurochemical becomes available replacing the bodies natural neurochemical. The added neurochemical becomes a needed substitute for the naturally occuring neurochemical. Indications of neurochemical reprogramming comes from smokers who quit - cold turkey. These smokers (former smokers) are able to reprogram their dependency on nicotine. The question for other neurochemical what method and means are available for such reprogramming and what indications does this have on reprogramming Parkinson's or MS.
   
3. [GI Science] - Neurochemical stimulants are also at the center of a number of gi hypersensitivity problems. These include additives like caffeine and nicotine, and natural stimulants like adrenaline. Many business type people describe coming out of high stress events as being on an adrenaline rush. In these same situations gi problems like IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), Crohn's, Colitis, Illitis, and Anusitis are all examples of lower gi hypersentivity. Further, these all exist in people in high stress environments. Patients treated here all came in after surgery, after other treatments failed. The goal here is to use tissue regeneration and neurochemical reprogramming to resolve problems where surgery has failed.
   
4. [Osteo Science] - For several years experiments in bone growth have been underway. This includes methods of increasing bone density, resolving cartilage and joint pain/injury issues. It's become clear that weight baring activity - even something as simple as walking, can be used to resolve many osteo problems. This includes resolving knee injuries. It's been found that, using a program of walking and knee exercises, knee injuries (some requiring surgery) can be resolved. The key is developing a physiotherapy type program that allows the body to heal the knee injury. There are also indications that this same type of physiotherapy program can be used on arthritic joints.
   
5. [Cardiology] - After working with patients in a single patient clinical studies, the bodies regenerative properties have been found here as well.
   

MEDICARE SCHMEDICARE - The Passionate Eye CBC

Monday, December 12 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on CBC Newsworld

Is one tier Medicare a myth? Have we been saluting its founder, the 'Greatest Canadian' Tommy Douglas as an emperor who really has no clothes?

As the country heads toward an election in which our health care system promises to be an emotional issue, Medicare Schmedicare takes the highly unorthodox stance that two tier health care is already here and thriving. Medicare Schmedicare offers viewers an inside look at private health care clinics across Canada - where $1,250 can get you immediate access to a doctor.

Filmed in private clinics in Montreal, Vancouver, and Toronto Medicare Schmedicare jumps into the Medicare debate-outlining the various health services that have become privatized in Canada. It compares the waiting times for patients who opt for private services versus those who anxiously line up with their health cards.

Medicare Schmedicare was written and directed by Gemini award-winning filmmaker Robert Duncan and produced by Carolyn Schmidt for International Documentary Television in association with the CBC.">CBC.ca - Program Guide - Passionate Eye: "MEDICARE SCHMEDICARE

The Lab Report

1. [Immunology] - The main project coming online is the Bird Flu Immunity Development Project. The goal here is, before the Bird Flu pandemic arrives in North America, to develop means to improve survivable and add immunity from future threats. Current efforts, in single patients studies have been successful in increasing the bodies immunity to serious flu's (SARS type flu's). Current results have seen a reduction in days of infection from 14 days to 4, with only 1 day of a mild fever. The goal, now, is to duplicate this in a large population of patients. This currently applies to flu (in general, SARS, and Hantavirus).
   
2. [Neurology] - Of the two schools of thought, the softwired brain, is the least popular, but it and only it holds the possibility of cures for neurological disorders. In our many years of research into tissue regeneration, the elusive goal of brain tissue regeneration has been seen- even though it was just a glimpse. Over the last 10 plus years, hints that brain tissue regeneration has shown itself, although very briefly. The first key being explored is the reprogramming capacity of the nervous system. Many disorders including cardiac and gi disorders are centered in the nervous system. Reprogramming the system can alleviate or eliminate the problem. This has led to insights that reprogramming my be possible with Parkinson's and mild cases MS.
   
3. [GI Science] - In continuing work in gi reprogramming, it became obvious that there were multiple triggers to gi hypersensitivity. One trigger, temperature, reveals itself in an old camping gag. Dunking a sleeping camper's hand in a warm water will cause him to urinate. This is an example of a temperature trigger causing bladder activity. This temperature trigger is a factor of many hypersensitivity problems, including incontinence problems. Here, the temperature sensitivity of both the bladder and kidney can become overly sensitive - causing frequent (and often uncontrollable) urination and defecation.
   
4. [Osteo Science] - The tissue regeneration project has had an effect here too. Many athletes and individuals (particularly the overweight) have knee problems requiring surgery. The goal here was to learn to use the bodies regenerative abilities to resolve knee and osteo problems. Todate, it has been possible to resolve knee problems without surgery, joint stiffness, and to eliminate a hairline fracture in a tooth.
