A new study just published on Feb 2011 in the journal of cancer makes a strong argument for applying hyperbaric oxygenation therapy (HBOT) for those patients who have had either surgery or radiation therapy for brain tumors. The study followed patients who had been treated with HBOT and there was a marked improvement in cognitive [...]

Intense body ‘clean-out’ of harmful chemicals
One of the most published and a contested arena of pesticide-induced immunotoxicity is the area of oncology. Some studies looking only at DDT exposure and serum levels have failed to show any significant increase in cancer mortality or long-term health effects. When the large picture of pesticide use is viewed a positive correlation with cancers is noted. Pesticide exposure does cause DNA damage and the formation of DNA adducts which can ultimately lead to cancer formation.OP pesticide use has been associated with aplastic anemia and leukemia in exposed farmers and in children exposed from having their homes treated. The studies involving US farmers and the exposed children both showed positive association with both OP and pyrethroid pesticide exposures and these hematologic disorders. Increased rates of multiple myeloma have also been associated with OP exposure. Chlorinated pesticides are positively associated with the incidence of non-Hodgkins lymphoma, aplastic anemia, cancers of the liver, colon/rectum, lung, and multiple myeloma, pancreatic cancers, blood dyscrasias and leukemia, and acute myeloid leukemia (along with solvent exposures).
The question about an association with breast cancer and chlorinated products has been the subject of numerous articles, so numerous that it is well beyond the scope of this article to cover them all. There are many articles that have found a positive association between breast cancer and chlorinated pesticides and many that have not. In the positive studies associations have been made with serum and adipose levels of DDT, DDE, PCB, dieldrin, and HCH. While this question seems far from being settled it appears obvious that in some women such pesticide load may be one of the factors in the development of breast cancer. A recent study showed that women with a genetic polymorphic variant of Cytochrome P450-1B1 (which catalyses the formation of 4-hydroxyestradiol that retains significant estrogenic activity and whose metabolites can generate potentially mutagenic free radicals that may damage DNA) have a greatly elevated risk of breast cancer. It was noted that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and the chlorinated pesticides are all known inducers of CP450. Such an induction associated with the genetic polymorphism may be part of the puzzle as to why the pesticides are apparent risk factors in some women but not others.
Our tissue cleansing and restoration program is one of the world’s best programs developed initially by Dr. Walter Crinnion and used successfully in clinical practice for over 18 years now. The program is simple yet complex and very intense. Patients are first screened by our medical practitioners then followed by specific lab tests. Once the results come in a plan of action is developed which is based on these results.
