Vitamin D, Ebola and Infectious Disease Processes

Dr. Sircus presents information about the role of Vitamin D and other nutrients in viral replication.   He presents studies confirming the need for Vitamin D and the wonders it   performs.  Dr Sircus Link

I have provided another link that references the great work that Dr. Klenner did concerning the role of mega doses of Vitamin C in terms of limiting infectious organisms including hardy viruses.    Dr. Klenner Research 

Other research worth looking at is the role of coconut oil in destroying pathogens and the use of essential oils that have virus killing power.

A Letter to my Critics

I received an email response from an excellent artist who said she read my blog in which she "found interesting"  and expounded that it appears that my problem along with many others is the "amount of sh*t we receive".   In thinking about this, I could not agree more.

I was stricken down with a life changing disease in which all my systems went kaplunk; neurological, muscular, endocrine,   and my life took a nasty turn for the worse.   Something happens in the brain when this happens, panic ensues, despondency kicks up, finances fail and the list goes on*.   These are things that are not in our control.   As a result of this loss of control then countermeasures are employed, much like a parachute that is pulled when you are screaming to the earth at 100mph.   Common wisdom tells us that there are safety nets that should be there but in reality they are not.   Countless medical opinions, requests for disability were snuffed, friends and family quietly disappear and so on.    I had few come forth with any viable solutions and those make up less than 2% of the people I have encountered along the way.   I found out that people have no interest in the welfare of others, they are simply too busy pursuing the things that matter the least.

*In fact this out of control situation creates more cortisol which causes more immune, neurological and endocrine problems

I am not alone in this since I do have an online community of people who suffer like myself and their complaints are carbon copies of my own.    Sadly you become a bullseye for the self proclaimed experts who in reality have no concept of the situation, but insist they do.    They could not be further from the truth, the difference is that have no self realization.    I have always felt that ignorance breeds arrogance and I think it is very true in this situation.

I have found that American Society is arrogant and contemptuous in this regard and I have found that fighting this is a terrible waste of time.   One of things that fails me is the basic understanding of people.

Lets start with some of the basics.

1/  I did not chose to be like this.   Yes, it is a fact that circumstances are many times out of our control.  
I live in constant pain or perhaps agony is a more relevant term.   This agony envelopes the physical, emotional, mental and the spiritual parts as well.

2/  I subjected myself to the medical 'experts' and was failed countless times.  They are rich in opinions (which are excuses by the way) but lack any meaningful remedy.

3/  My disease cost me major money not only in terms of medical testing but in potential earned income.

4/  I was socially isolated due to the fear and contempt of my peers.

5/  I was told this was all my fault which is absolute bullsh*t.


6/  CFS/ME is a real disease.   Sorry we didn't make it up so that people feel sorry for us, or make it up to get out of work or because we are mentally ill.  

7/  My Citric Acid cycle was measured at 125 with the mean being 500-2000.    My critics should know something about ATP or the Krebs Cycle which are both basic biochemical reactions on which all life depends on.   I would hope they understand about electron transfer and the nutrients that are involved in ATP production.

8/  CFS/ME is vastly understudied.   CFS/ME affects all processes of the body, it is just as disabling as any other chronic neurological/immune disease.

9/    I was infected with a parasite that steals ATP.   This means I cannot produce cellular energy.   

10/  There are multiple etiologies of CFS/ME including viral agents, stealth bacteria, heavy metal poisoning, genetic disturbances and the list goes on.   Quite likely there were viral agents that predate this and in fact may have disabled the immune response to begin with.   Excessive vaccinations from my Military service played a role in this as well.  

11/  When ATP is down then all systems are down.   Does this make sense?   

12/  Adrenals play a key role in human health.   My critics should be experts in adrenal functions such as endocrine involvement, hormonal health, fight or flight.  

13/  When one is sick, they are disabled.  Disabled is the polar opposite of enabled.   

14/  When one is disabled, it affects their enabled-ness which means we cannot do the same things as you, including vocational tasks or other ways of making money.  Our views and aspirations are not the same as the 'normal'.   We fight to survive and have the hope of prospering one day.  


15/  When one cannot earn money at the rate of others then you cannot do simple things.   Money is a resource and we need resources in order to survive.   

16/    Sickness is traumatizing.  

17/  Sick people are not stupid people.   I have many friends who are quite intelligent and for myself belong to high iq societies  that are more exclusive than Mensa.  

18/  Managing sickness is a full time job in itself.  In addition to this I work a full time job, devote much time to medical research and economic theories.    I have spent an estimated 20,000 hours in medical research, testing observational trial and error. 

As disabled people we get sick of the 'if I were you' statements, the gossip and character destroying talk (Note: if you have something to say about me please get some stones and say it to me and not to others), please do something to help me, that is all I ask for (and lets not get into the idea that if you offer something, I will take everything which is quite offensive).   I am an intelligent man who has great integrity, I persevere, I suffer with the goal of being a great human being.

Malaria and Me

I have been engaged in taking MOOC classes to broaden my learning goals.   The most recent course I have taken is Risk and Oppurtunity sponsored by the World Bank.  The purpose of the course is to bring light to the many plights people face around the world and how risk mitigation can buffer many of the threats countries, communities and people face.

We have been asked to pick a topic as a final assignment and I have chosen the topic of Malaria and the devastation it brings.


According to the World Bank over 3.3 million people are at risk for contracting Malaria with the hardest hit in the African continent.   This disease is transmitted by mosquitoes which carry a protozoa parasite that is blood borne.  This parasite attacks the red blood cells and in most cases causes death if left untreated.

Sickness is a major t hreat not only to the individual but to communities.   It causes economic hardships,  psychological stress and is a major disruptor for the immediate family and community.

The World Bank states this about the economic impact of Malaria:

The disease takes a high toll on households and health care systems, and impedes economic development in endemic countries. It is estimated that malaria reduces GDP growth by approximately 1.3% per year in some African countries.  (1)  

The risks can be controlled by a number of factors such as proper funding, education, continual research and implementation of health policies such as nets and the use of pesticides.  Sadly Malaria is overlooked in Western Nations and does not receive the funding it needs to be controlled (2).   Efforts have been made by many organizations including the Centers of Disease Control, non-profit organizations such as malarianomore.com and nothingbutnets.net, the World Health Organization and many others.

Even with adequate funding, impediments are present which is based on a lack of understanding. Education provides a remedy to this by disseminating teaching those in endemic areas the necessary ways to prevent this disease by the use of mosquito nets and the use of pesticides. (3)

Economically feasible methods of testing and treatment are being revised every day to make treatment convenient and accessible.    Western nations can assist by becoming aware of this killer and by making economic contributions.  Anyone interested in helping can visit the following site to see how they can help.  http://www.cdc.gov/malaria/how_can_i_help.html

I have been corresponding with a man who has been chronically sick for a number of years and feels he is near death - he is pleading for someone to help him.    I presume he is in his early years since he had a wife and children who left him because of his illness.  His family does not believe he is ill and he was institutionalized.    He is infected with some type of nematode which is evidenced by visuals in his stool.  and his chronic symptomology which includes endocrine disturbance, weight loss, neurological pains, visual problems, chronic fatigue syndrome, skin eruptions, brain disorders and many other symptoms (see below for his extensive list)

Many of his problems go overlooked because Western Medicine cannot diagnose anything they are not trained for.  The disease is bad enough from a mental/emotional/spiritual and physical standpoint but to be ostracized is quite another.  Western Medicine is a hit or miss thing and of course if they hit then options are limited since they only have three options: drug you, cut you or burn you. Whereas non-Western modalities have many other options.   Medicine is big business and it is run by economics and not by empathy.   Either you fit in the model  or you are simply put into the turnstile to another practitioner  who of course has no idea what is wrong with you and the cycle continues.  Furthermore Western Medicine will never cure you unless you have an infection that antibiotics cure.

I went through that whole mess and vowed never to go through it again.  I was fortunate to have at least 2 physicians be honest with me and I thank them for that.  The remaining were arrogant who had no idea what it was like to be sick.  They fail to understand the multitude of challenges you face with being disabled especially by a no name disease that is considered to be 'all in your head'.Which demonstrates to me the folly of all of this.  It is a sick joke.

Take your dog or cat to the Veterinarian and I almost guarantee the first thing they check is parasites if there is certain symptomology.   Take a human with the same complaints to a doctor and you will get a its in your head diagnosis.

My question is why must this man treat himself and why must he be ostracized by the community?  Why can't medicine produce a simple blood test to find out the specific immune factors he is producing and match that up to a group of infections such as viruses, bacteria etc.?
With all the money this country spends on defense (900 billion) , HIV research  (20 billion) why can't this be developed?

I have listed the symptoms he wrote down for me below.

 Muscle cramps, weight loss, diarrhea, constipation, teeth grinding,headache, muscle twitching, shooting pains in muscles,sharp abdominal pains, swollen hands/face/legs/nausea, bleeding in eyeball, chemical sensitivity, night sweats,slow digestion, itching,movement internally, pressure in ears, worms in stool, egg sacks in stool,low body temperature,lesions on scalp shoulders and abdomen,numbness in back and feet,red streaks under skin, worms in nostrils and eyes, tiredness,vertigo, racing thoughts, memory loss, inability to catch breath, sharp pains in head, chest/heart pain,dry pale skin, rib pains, burning sensation in eyes, poor sleep.There are more but that is most of them.Swollen spleen and unidentified swelling in my colon were also found.I have tested neurological, allergy,dermatological, cardiological, fungus,virus,stool samples.My whole body is rotting from the tissue damage and toxins and continued breeding and spreading of this organism. chronic fatigue syndrome
