Researchers at the Institut Pasteur in France, which first identified the outbreak last March, are investigating whether it could have become more contagious. More than 22,000 people have been infected with Ebola and 8,795 have died in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia. Scientists are starting to analyse hundreds of blood samples from Ebola patients in Guinea. They are tracking how the virus is changing and trying to establish whether it’s able to jump more easily from person to person “We know the virus is changing quite a lot,” said human geneticist Dr Anavaj Sakuntabhai. “That’s important for diagnosing (new cases) and for treatment. We need to know how the virus (is changing) to keep up with our enemy.” It’s not unusual for viruses to change […] Read More

This is another installment of research into the biochemistry of HIV and Aids by Cal Crilly, an Australian who finds himself fascinated with the intricacies of biology. Crilly analyzes the seemingly unconnected studies that show the biochemical changes that accompany the presence of numerous retroviruses – one of them called HIV – in humans. The mechanism that makes retroviruses appear is hypomethylation, and it is the same mechanism that accompanies pregnancy and inflammation. Those retroviruses are produced in the course of normal biological activity and they are not infectious. There are many different types (ever heard of HIV ‘mutating’?). As an aside, we declare pregnant mothers to be “HIV positive” as pregnancy causes the presence of retroviruses in the course of normal biological activity, and […] Read More
Walter Last The following recommendations for overcoming some specific health problems contain in a condensed form some important or specific ingredients of a natural approach. However, it is essential to incorporate these specific recommendations into a holistic program for improving the wellbeing of the whole person. Your disease or health problem may just disappear after a cleansing program and by adopting a high-quality diet that is appropriate for your metabolic type without any further therapies being required. In particular, many health problems tend to disappear simply by eliminating all gluten products, sweeteners and any foods that cause a sensitivity reaction. In addition to any supplements specifically mentioned for your problem, you may also take a multi-vitamin-mineral tablet, antioxidants, lecithin, kelp, pollen and other helpful nutrients.
