Some statistics: 400 - 500 years old skeletons and the bones of persons died in 1987 - 1997 have been examined for
lead. The modern bones had 500 - 1000 times more lead than the old.
Lead inhibits development and disturbs formation
of blood. Since some years lead is out of the petrol. But now carcinogen chemicals (MTBE) are in it. So the neuro toxins are
replaced by carcinogenes.
Now Dr. Klinghardt gave the floor to Dr. Patricia Kane, a leading food expert in the USA,
who reported about her research on essential fatty acids and her treatment of neurologically ill
patients. Dr.
Klinghardt translated (into German):
60 % of the brain are lipids. Mercury is lipophil. Mercury goes, where fats and
oils are. So the brain is damaged.
There is a good message: a brain damaged by toxins can be "repaired" partially
by adding the right, essential fatty acids and by avoiding of the wrong fatty acids.
In the interior of the cells there
are, besides other structures and the mitochondria, which had been the center of research so far, also peroxisomes, or organelles.
In these peroxisomes all
detoxification takes place. The metabolism via Cytochrome P450 takes place in the peroxisomes.
In the peroxisomes the fats are burned (i.e. processed).
At persons poisoned with mercury, long chained fatty acids,
which can not be broken down, are established in the peroxisomes. If mercury makes the peroxisomes be sticky, detoxification
is
impossible.
The cell is filled with microtubules (tube structures). They are important for the transportation
within the nerve cells. Emotions go along these tubuli. Also mitochondria wander along these tubuli. Brains with mercury loose
these tubuli. Mercury damages proteins in brain as at Alzheimer. The damage is identical.
60 % of the brain are lipids
and also the membrane of each cell consists of a double lipid layer. Fatty acids are among others responsible for the transport
of information and nutrition through
the cell membrane.
An unsaturated fatty acid has a long chain with strong
vibration. A saturated fatty acid has no vibration, it is stiff. When mercury nests into the chain of unsaturated fatty acids,
the vibration stops, the fatty acid becomes stiff. Also the fatty acids in the cell membrane are damaged by mercury. The mercurydamaged
cell is stiff, the transport of information and nutrition will be impossible.
The cell needs fatty acids for its normal
functioning. But with damage of the cell membrane too much fat could be in the blood - but, caused by the disturbed transport
mechanism, too few fat in the cell.
Heavy metals consume Omega-6-lipids, which are - among others - serve as predecessors
of the arachidonic acid, which is very important for the body. Twelve years ago Dr. Klinghardt recommended to his patients
to eat 6 eggs per day - because of its sulphur and its arachidonic acid. This fatty acid is also found in butter and cheese.
What has to be taken into account now to give the burdened brain, what it needs?
At the intake
of fats the balance between Omega-6 and Omega-3 is very important. Omega-6-oils are in sun flower oil, thistle oil and evening
primrose oil. From this the protaglandins-1-seires is established, which is important for the communication in the cell. Omega-6-oils
are also in meat and butter, from which the prostaglandins of the series 2 are produced, which are among others important
for the production of the leukotriene (inflammation mediators). Omega-3-oils are in fish or in linseed oil. Consideration
of oils is essential for mercury detoxification.
The work of Dr. Yehuda and Dr. Rabinowitz is important, e.g. Fatty
Acids and Brain Peptides" (Peptides 1998;19(2):407-19). Dr. Yehuda recommends a balance of 4 : 1 between Omega-6 and
Omega-3-oils, e.g. 4 parts sun flower with 1 part linseed oil.
The oils should be biological, cold squeezed, in dark
bottles and cooled. In the USA there are manufacturers, who cool their oils from the beginning. Just during the two days of
mailing the oils are not cooled.
If you want to know it exactly, you have a lab in USA, which can find out by blood
test, which fatty acids are missing in the patients brain (see addendum). The lipid concentration in the red
blood cells
is measured, this correlates with the lipid concentration in the brain. Then a diet plan with exactly fats and oils is recommended.
An
other point should be considered at detoxification. The Phospholipase 2 (PLA2) destroys essential fatty acids. Therefor PLA2
stimulants should be avoided
Insulin is a PLA2-stimulator. So the patients should have a diet with low carbohydrates,
a maximum of 6 bread exchange units per day. Dr. Klinghardt adds: avoid all grain, also rice. No
bread! So eat in future
vegetables with eggs.
With increased PLA2 the following happens:
- membrane lipids are lost
- prostaglandins
synthesis is disturbed
- the membrane permeability is disturbed
- the homeostasis is disturbed.
