| Sunday, June 02 2002 I again slept just fine..
The Mil-Adregen is working miraceously well for me..
Perhaps there is one side-effect. I have to sniff my nose several times a day, but I don't think it's a cold.. When I zap it, it seems to disappear but it comes back the next day.. Perhaps it's an allergic reaction to one of the ingredients of Mil-Adregen.. But on the other hand, I also feel my throat ache. So, perhaps it's just some stubborn bacteria afterall..
Yesterady I used 4x Mil-Adregen with perfect result.. Today, I will try 3x to see it that suffices.
My digestion is perfect again, as are my stools, since I stopped the licorice and the probiotics..

| Friday, May 31 2002 I again slept well.. However, it was short.. I woke up early because I slept in my parents's house where the windows aren't blocked. The first sunlight at 5 AM woke me up. Again I hadn't perspired..
Now my sleep is well again, I think my adrenals are regenerating better during the sleep. I really think now the Mil-Adregen product is superior to the one I was taking before..
I am now experimenting with the amount of Mil-Adregen to take daily.. I think it should be somewhere in between 3 and 6 per day. Yesterday I took 6 I think and that was a great experience.. Virtually energetic all day and no brain fogs.. It's however important to not make use of all that energy and use it instead for regenerating the adrenals (give the adrenals a break while supplying the right ingredients for good regeneration).
Also check this quote from a CFS-sufferer diary, being treated by Dr. Poesnecker:
www.chronicfatigue.org/JWJ%20Diary.html ''In touch with Dr. Poesnecker by e-mail, receiving the natural remedies by mail, I'm still taking licorice in milk at 5:00 a.m. to increase my available cortisol. Three times a day I take Adrenal Cortex Extract and Mil-Adregen, two glandular formulations to strengthen the adrenal glands''
It's great to see they are also using the licorice-in-milk protocol, as David Williams proposes..
Yesterday was Jon's first day (see www.newtreatments.org/bellyzapping.php ) without bellyzapping. Thursday went just fine, but today he noticed soft stools again.. He started zapping again.. Well, this definitely does proof that the zapper is doing this, but it also shows that this might be only a temporary solution instead of a permanent one.. He will build a stronger 727Hz zapper that penetrates the intestines better. Perhaps that one can yield a permanent cure..
To be continued.

| Thursday, May 30 2002 WOW, The Mil-Adregen has changed my sleep into a very good one.. I used to wake up several times and often perspire a lot.. But that's over now.. I sleep without waking up ones and don't perspire at all anymore..
Let's hope this will last and will eventually regenerate my adrenals.
Also my intestines are finally relaxed again, since I stopped using both the licorice and the probiotics..
|
| Wednesday, May 29 2002 The licorice wasn't working notably..
The Mil-adregen however *is* working.. It takes about two hours after taking the pill before it works.. It completely takes away the itchy feelign and the brainfogs. Cool..
Let's hope it heals my adrenals over time...
I today stopped the licorce and the probiotics, because they upset my intestines. Licorice contains starch and the probiotics contain inulin.
|
| Tuesday, May 28 2002 The licorice is working, but not as well as I had hoped.. The itchy feeling does return alas and so do slight brain fogs..
This morning I catched a cold and I decided to zap it immediately.. Succes.. 20 minutes after the first zapping it was gone ! Ofcourse I completed the entire zapping protocol 7Z-20P-7Z-20P-7Z (Z=Zapping, P=Pausing)
I received the Mil-Adregen today ! That's a very quick delivery from abroad. I ordered it last Thursday !
I will use it immediately to see how it works..
I took the first two pills at 13:30 (1:30 PM).
|
| Sunday, May 26 2002 The licorice is really working.. I feel a whole lot better than last week when I didn't use any supplement for the adrenals anymore..
Last week I felt OK when I stepped out of bed, but within an hour I would feel real itchy and brainfogged.. That would last till late afternoon.. Then until the evening I would feel OK..
Now, I feel OK the entire day.. So the licorice is doing great things.. I hope the Mil-Adregen will cause a further boost.. That would be cool..
|
| Saturday, May 25 2002 Today and yesterday I'm only using the licorice and as soon as I've received the Mil-adregen I will start to use that too..
I won't use the Cordyceps sinensis anymore for now..
I think the licorice is helping already. I feel less yerked up than yesterday morning. I often feel bad in the morning.. I think that's the moment the adrenals need to produce large amounts of cortisol and seem to be unable to.. And thus causing brainfogs..
|
| Thursday, May 23 2002 When I read the days after April 10 in my diary, I see that I felt very, very well, a 10-rating. However the effects of the supplements started to decrease after some time.
I think this is what happened:
The Cordyceps Sinensis CS-4 boosted my exhausted adrenals up to the point that I felt remarkably well. However, its reserves got less and less and it got even more exhausted and over time the trick didn't work anymore..
I think I will stop using the cordyceps sinensis product right now and will start using the Core Level Adrenal product and when the Miller Adregen product comes in I will switch to that product..
I will also continue to use the licorice, although I doubt its potential. I should try and find the licorice that Captain William Davids used, which seems to be very a potent type.
I also called the Healing Resource Center to ask them which adrenal gland supplement works the best. Alas, they couldn't give me the details without performing the ASI test first. But the friendly man directed me to their webstore where I found between the lines which supplement they use in the clinic. That's the Mil-Adregen product I just ordered. The prices over there are OK, since I couldn't find a lower price all over the web..
Here is an abstract of the book Chronic Fatigue Unmasked''
While on the subject of glandular substance therapy, I need to warn our readers that all glandular materials are not the same. As the use of these products has become increasingly popular, many unqualified producers have sprung up to supply the demand. Some of these are only out to ''make a buck and have little comprehension of the processes required to make a therapeutically effective preparation. In earlier editions of this book, we recommended several trade name products that we found effective in treating CFS, but we will not do so in this edition. The reason for this change is twofold: (1) New and sometimes better products are being produced at an accelerated pace now that our work is becoming better and better known and (2) some of our old standbys have not kept up with advances made in nutritional science and may no longer be the state-of-the-art they were when we first wrote this text. Therefore, we will discuss generic remedies in this edition, but will not suggest specific manufacturers. For specific products we invite you to call us at 1-800-300-5168. In this way we will always be able to give the names of state-of-the-art glandulars and other remedies needed to treat CFS.

| Wednesday, May 22 2002 Hi,
I just received the reports from my phisician. It's an analysis of fecal matter.
There were no parasites found !
Also no fungi were found !
Dysbiosis test:
Colour : Brown (OK)
Consistency: Structure (OK)
pH-Value: Too High (alkalic) 7.4 (ref 5.8-6.8)
Muscle fiber: Negative (OK)
Starch: Positive (not normal)
Fat Soaps: Negative (OK)
Aerobic Flora:
Escherichia coli 10^5 KBE/g (too low, ref 10^6-10^7)
E.Coli Biovare <10^4 (OK)
Proteus sp. <10^4 (OK)
Klebsiella sp. <10^4 (OK)
Eneterobacter sp <10^4 (OK)
Pseudomonas sp. <10^4 (OK)
Citrobacter sp <10^4 (OK)
Enterococcus sp 10^8 (too high, ref=10^6-10^7)
Anaerobic Flora
Bifidobacterium sp 10^9 (OK)
Bacteroides sp 10^9 (OK)
Lactobacillus sp 10^4 (too low, ref 10^5-10^7)
Clostridium sp < 10^5 (OK)
Summary of values beyond reference values
Lactobacillus sp 10^4 (too low, ref 10^5-10^7)
Enterococcus sp 10^8 (too high, ref=10^6-10^7)
Escherichia coli 10^5 KBE/g (too low, ref 10^6-10^7)
pH-Value: Too High (alkalic) 7.4 (ref 5.8-6.8)
This explains perfectly why I can't tolerate any lactose, even the tiny amounts in butter (sour cream). My physician gave me a probiotic supplement that contains the Lactobacillus..
He also suggested to use small doses of hydrocortisone. I told him about Captain David Williams treatment, but he wasn't aware of that protocol (milk+potent licorice together). I will email him the details.. He was aware of the ETD treatment (every third day)..
This is amazing news.. It shows I'm free of candida or other yeasts or fungi or parasites.. Also the intestinal flora is reasonably well, except for the lactobacillus sp.
The lactobacillus are needed to produce B12 according to this article: www.bhj.org/journal/2002_4401_jan/org_18.htm .
A deficiency of Lactobacillus Acidophilus may also be associated with food allergies
www.morganics.com/html/productinfo/morganpro1.html
When the lactobacillus population is restored, it leaves only one last possible cause of my brain fogs: My adrenals..
I'm really considering the hydrocortisone approach, but am afraid my adrenals will shrink because of it.. Although only 7mg will be used to offload the adrenals and allow them to restore, Í'm afraid the adrenals get lazy..
I will continue the slow, natural approach with CS4, Licorice and Core Level Adrenal extract..
I think I'll drop the CS4 because I'm afraid it overstimulates the adrenals. I have just ordered Mil-Adregen, the supplement of choice by the writer of the book Chronic Fatigue Unmasked 2000. I ordered it here from www.chronicfatigue.org/
This is the product page:
www.guidance.org/store/product77.html
And the image:
*
I think it's more potent because according to this page, the raw glandular material stays potent because of the lyophilization process at below 40 degrees Celcius.. According to this page: www.millerpharmacal.com/products.html .
I can't find any info on how the Core Level Adrenal Product by Nutrilabs is processed, so Í assume it's a less efficient process..

| Monday, May 20 2002 OK.. Here we go again.. Another hypothesis:
The two prednison treatments have severely exhausted / depressed my adrenals
When I started the SCDiet I drank three liters of highly-glycemic grapejuice, lots of fruits and lots of honey, which must have overexhausted my adrenals even further
Hypoglycemia problems were introduced
I then switched to the low-carb diet and the hypoglycemia problems disappeared.
My acne problems started almost instantly after going low-carb, at about 20-30grams a day of carbohydrates
My allergy problems appeared soon after that
My calcium intolerance problems appeared soon after that
When the adrenals aren't functioning 100%, there is not enough aldosterone. Aldosterone signals the kidneys to excrete acids. So, the acid-excretion mechanism isn't working optimally.
Full-time ketosis, induced by a 30-gram low-carb diet, will acidify the blood further. Normally this is not a problem, but with weakened adrenals it is.
The body tries to increase the pH (decrease acidity) by releasing caclium from the bones.. Result is hypercalcemia and because it's a atagonist to several minerals, it will cause hypomagnesemia symptioms like muscle twitching. The high calcium problem aggrevates the adrenal insufficiency problems, creating brain fogs similar to those in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. These are caused by the excess of calcium flowing into the cells, causing Nitric-Oxide buildup, which then causes brain fogs and depressed the adrenals further and causes a hyper-state of immunity because of the low cortisol..
This immunity in the overdrive will cause the strange allergies I experience..
Also, I will have to stick to the low-carb diet to prevent hypoglycemia, induced by low-cortisol, which isn't sufficienct to antagonize the insulin.
When I eat more calcium, the blood levels of calcium get extermely high and cause extreme brain fogs and fatigue, through the Nitric Oxide mechanism outlined above..
That's why Gingko BIloba and CoEnzyme Q10 and activated B12-co-enzyme work perfectly as anti-brainfog-supplements, because these all are nitric oxide scavengers.
The question now is: How can I break this vicious cycle ?
By eating slightly more carbohydrates perhaps, which should stop full-time ketosis, and decrease acidity, decrease hypercalcemia, decrease brain fogs, decrease adrenal suppression and thus break the vicious cycle..
I experimented with this by eating a pear last evening, but the result was I couldn't fall asleep at all.. That must have been due to unstable blood sugar levels..
So, that means I can't tolerate a pear, which is up to 15% glucose and weighs say 150grams, yielding 22 grams of glucose/fructose.
I will try adding a third of a pear to each meal, which consists also of a lot of fat to decrease absorption speed. If that helps, I can increase the amount of fruit I have with each meal.
I could also use Sodium-Bicarbonate to decrease acidity of the blood, which then decreases hypercalcemia, decreases nitric oxide production, decreases brain fogs, decreases adrenal suppression and thus breaks the vicious cycle..
I think I will try the NaHCO3 (baking soda) approach today. I am a bit afraid of the possible side effects like stomach problems or gas production.
Well, this is just another hypothesis, of which I've come up with many others recently..
The solution to this problem might be very tricky, but I will experiment soon..
The one difference with a year ago (when I started the low-carb regimen) is that there is a big chance my insulin resistance is cured.. Staying on a low carb diet for 6 months should get rid of most insulin resistance.. I'm sure I was insulin resistance after drinking the loads of grapejuice, because I was epxeriencing lots of hyperglycemia symptoms (very, very thirsty throughout the day).
Thanks for reading, If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
