WHAT IS "PRION" & HOW DOES IT AFFECT US?

 

This is a very unpleasant subject but one we need to know about. I have been working with this research for some time and now it is time to gather all the information and put together into one article. We all came to this planet to be here at this time. Also know that there is only death to this body, not our soul. And also know that I do not do articles for the sensationalism of the article. At the end of the article I tell you about a remedy for Prion that the ones that I got this information from do not know about. We are truly taking care of by the loving source if we care to do the research.

The truth about Mad Cow is so horrific nothing is taught about it in medical schools. Until a few years ago, most scientists knew nothing about it—(malady originally found in cannibals but mysteriously, at times seemingly spontaneously in non-cannibals)—which was probably for the best.

Mad-cow has been killing American sheep since the early 70’s, U.S. cows since the mid-80’s, and U.S. citizens for the last decade. The reason it hasn’t been made public is that the people who had the facts chose to misinterpret them. They are in denial.

Scientists have know the truth about Mad-Cow for 11 years, since 1985 when Britain’s #1 researcher, a microbiologist, discovered and announced them. It took him a decade to publish his February, 1995, book which claimed a hundred plus humans dead of Mad-Cow might imply the British beef supply was infected. (Two prestigious medical journals trashed the book in scathing reviews.)

Summer ’95, the Canadian Red Cross had a blood recall when they discovered two infected Canadians had donated blood but the press only wanted to talk about a sick bull whose owner refused to destroy him. The November ’95 issue of the British Medical Journal suggested the possibility that maybe people got Mad Cow from eating beef. Three million Brits immediately quit eating beef.

Mad-Cow hit our shore in two blows—the first January 12th, 1996, when John Darnton wrote a long article on balmy bovines for the New York Times, the second March 20th, 1996, when the British government finally admitted to the world that the obscure, brain-disintegrating cow malady called Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (Latin for sponge brains) was the same disease found in a lot of dead sheep, in the brains of several hundred dead Brits and the same disease that turned cannibals’ minds to mush back in New Guinea in the 1940’s.

Well before that two men by the names of Creutzfeldt and Jakob were in New Guinea and came upon a tribe that had a curious thing that they did with their ancestors brain. White man wasn’t supposed to get the cannibal bug. New Guinea Papuans deserved things like that. These dumb-nuts ate their deceased family members’ brains as a social ritual, hoping to keep their relatives thoughts "alive" and know the future. Once a Papuan was infected, any children born, automatically had the infection incubating inside them and the whole family died dingy. It was a weird sickness which deserved the most obscure name possible and "Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease" did the job, (Named after Creutzfeldt and Jakob.)

Before and during World War II, at the infamous Camp 731 in Manchuria, the Japanese military contaminated prisoners of war with certain disease agents. T

They also established a research camp in New Guinea in 1942. There they experimented upon the Fore Indian tribe and inoculated them with a minced-up version of the brains of diseased sheep containing the visna virus which causes "mad cow disease" or Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

About five or six years later, after the Japanese had been driven out, the poor people of the Fore tribe developed what they called kuru, which was their word for "wasting", and they began to shake, lose their appetites and die. The autopsies revealed that their brains had literally turned to mush. They had contracted "mad cow disease" from the Japanese experiments.

When World War II ended, Dr Ishii Shiro-the medical doctor who was commissioned as a General in the Japanese Army so he could take command of Japan’s biological warfare development, testing and deployment-was captured. He was given the choice of a job with the United States Army or execution as a war criminal. Not surprisingly, Dr. Ishii Shiro chose to work with the US military to demonstrate how the Japanese had created mad cow disease in the Fore Indian tribe.

In 1957, when the disease was beginning to blossom in full among the Fore people, Dr Carleton Gajdusek of the US National Institutes of Health headed to New Guinea to determine how the minced-up brains of the visna-infected sheep affected them. He spent a couple of years there, studying the Fore people, and wrote an extensive report. He won the Nobel Prize for "discovering" kuru disease in the Fore tribe

CJD was a "Prion" disease, so called after the minuscule protein particle that seemed to cause it, not a bacteria, not a microbe, but a virus, a sub-microscopic speck that had no DNA or genetic structure, a protein particle of a few simple atoms of death strung on an amino ribbon floating single-minded through a mammalian body until it found the area where it loves to root, the brain. There, the Prion embeds itself, bonding with a single healthy protein molecule and like a cult leader, instructing him to mutate into a twisted Prion like itself. Then, the newly converted devotee molecule does the same thing, converting another normal cell, setting off a chain reaction-series of imploding, self-destructing cells, leaving large, ventilated, vacant spaces. The cult is as lethal as it is patient not caring if it kills its host victim, as it quite happily decays into the ground, hungrily waiting a few centuries for another victim.

Though science would have us believe CJD can be sporadic, or appear out of nowhere, CJD enters us only when flesh is eaten. White men didn’t eat their brothers, so there was no thought in early researchers, Creutzfeldt and Jakob, that we could get this bizarre mush brain syndrome. But as a wise man once said, science never advances so fast as when it is dead wrong.

If there are coherent universes contained inside coherent universes, microcosms above and below, why can’t germs have feelings and aspirations? As germs go, this one was a bug with imagination. It wasn’t interested in crawling on the savannah of the New Guinea Papua, in some blade of grass, It wanted "the big time," so it waited until a chipmunk ate the grass, the aborigine ate the chipmunk then the germ tap-danced up the poor man’s brain stem to the man’s brain, eating holes in his gray matter until the cerebrum resembled a big, gray sponge and the host became spastic, mindless and started laughing, as mindless people everywhere do, only this fellow would laugh himself to death and then, as if to "get" the joke, his children ate his brain.

At first, the disease seemed kind of fun. Imagine Creutzfeldt and Jakob coming upon this native, laughing himself to death with kuru, (the Papuan name for it) and then embarking for Europe, with the laughing man’s pickled brain in a jar. Seeing no germs in any lens of the period, they threw this spongy cauliflower into their little British garden. A trillion prions abated into the ground, waiting for some low grazing animal to come munching toward them, and along came the family pet, Wooly the Ram. Bingo! It’s Mega-death starring The Cannibal Bug opening at the Palladium. That might well have been the scenario for, after New Guinea, the disease’s next official appearance involved a big, geographic leap. In the 70’s, it appeared in the sheep herds of Britain. British sheepherders, called the penchant "scrapie" after the sick sheep’s habit of rubbing up against things.

As breeders traded sheep like baseball cards, scrapie moved to sheep herds in America, which in 1970 had an epizootic amount of laughy, rubbing sheep. For a while farmers wondered if their teen-aged kids had dosed herds with some of those new-fangled, hippie drugs. Rams and ewes that had never met a cannibal started exhibiting an odd itch to scrape their heads and hides against fences, even if the fences were barbed wire. No one suspected that scrapie was just that old Papuan wolf hiding in sheep’s clothing. It was beyond imagination that a cannibal infection on one, isolated continent could leap to food chain-animals on another continent. In l970, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and National Institute of Health were on some kind of secret detail. They collected thousands of scrapie-infected sheep, examined them, isolating the animals in pens, in up-state New York, but then, according to Howard Lyman of the U.S. Humane Society, (an ex cattle rancher who was privy to all this), the NIH (i.e. Washington) sold the sick animals to farmers across the USA. When these sheep later died, unsuspecting farmers sold their corpses to the rendering industry to make cattle feed, in order to GET $100 rather than SPEND $500 for an autopsy. Unwittingly, the U.S. Government had sent a gaggle of happy little Papuan prions off to have their way with a lot of unsuspecting American cows. In the USA there is an enormous industry of turning cow corpses into Soylent Green to fatten livestock, called "feeder cattle," meaning cattle raised to be eaten by cattle. This practice is so solidly entrenched in the USA that you can actually trade commodity futures on "feeder animals."

Back in the 70’s the delegated feeders were sheep who’d died of scrapie. This was simply American frugality to use up all those imported, sick sheep. Grinding up dead animals worked well for American ranchers; cows buffed up into Schwarzeneggers so Brits began doing it to their dead sheep and in the 70’s, Brits were losing a lot of sheep to scrapie. Why not cut losses with cash for corpses? Trusting beef-farmers bought hi-protein certain-death feed for their cows for the next 18 years. Because the UK had an enormous percentage of sheep to cows, every cow got a daily, heaping serving of kibbled sheep. And poor trusting Brits ate a lot of the infected sheep too, as in Britain, mutton is consumed.

For the first time since Papua, humans got prions in their brains. How not to? Farmers and butchers couldn’t see that a sheep was ill. At slaughter time, the dementia hadn’t yet manifested. Even if it had, in 1974, the top UK microbiologist/researcher, Dr. Richard Lacey and his U.S. counterpart, Dr. Stanley Prusiner had only just set up their electron microscopes to study prion diseases. In those days researchers thought prion diseases were only genetic. The fact that they were infectious first, later becoming genetic was beyond imagination.

So get the picture: 26 years ago, microbiologists in two countries could see the bug—farmers, veterinarians and butchers couldn’t. There were no antibody markers visible at any time during incubation so sick ewes freely gave their illness to their baby lambs who carried the bug straight to human tables. The logic of science is hazy to the point of denial here as there were human dementia deaths in the 70’s but they were ascribed to Alzheimer’s, the disease that was giving doctors deep-pockets, so prions, sheep and sloppy doctors were all off the hook.

But all that was soon to change. In 1985, British farmers noticed that an illness suspiciously like scrapie turned up in a cow. Patient Zero was a Holstein dairy cow who started kicking like a chorus girl, developed an extreme case of the jitters then fell over dead. Her brain was examined posthumously, its Swiss cheese appearance noted and the disease given the name "Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy" or BSE, a whole letter away in the dictionary from Creutzfeldt and a dictionary away from "Scrapie."

In a cow, the bug caused more than just an itch to scrape. BSE was a true "Dementia" disease, like Alzheimer’s is for humans, i.e. memory loss, motor function changes, loss of large movements like walking ability.

A cow is a lot more valuable than a sheep. Beef-farmers demanded answers. At first, nobody connected spastic cows with the scrapie sheep of the 70’s and certainly not with New Guinea cannibals of the 40’s but in 1986, a professor of Microbiology at Leeds University, consultant to the W.H.O., Dr. Richard Lacey, announced that scrapie, BSE and CJD were the same thing, that beef disease was in the meat supply, could kill humans and that a wave of deaths would soon hit Britain.

Lacey was called "an airy-fairy, politically suspect vegan," and accused of trying to dismantle the 6 billion dollar a year British beef industry. His funding was pulled. He stuck to his guns, warning there was going to be a fatal outbreak, saying that people should stop eating beef and that newspapers should start warning people of the possibility of human infection. Lacey felt that 100,000 people were already infected. His prophecies made Beefeaters and especially beef-farmers edgy and got him fired but his words weren’t ignored. The government created an Official Advisory Council, (leaving the nation’s only expert, Lacey, off the board) which told farmers not to worry, that while feeding powdered sheep corpses to live cows probably wasn’t a good idea (even if the idea had been given to them by American ranchers, who practiced "the grisly, fleshly humus pile" method for buffing up beef to the tune of huge profits,) Brit farmers could do as they wanted. That was 1986. And the band played on.

In late 1987, 700 BSE-infected cows were reported in Britain. By Summer 1988, the number had climbed to 7,000. Out of one side of their mouth, the experts said they were stumped. Out of the other side of their face they created a 1988 law making the use of sheep and bovine offal illegal. Europe, Asia and America heard about the law, realized the livestock they’d been importing was infected and en masse boycotted British sheep and beef, causing millions of pounds sterling profits to vaporize.

The sacrificial lamb-ban was a case of too little too late. British livestock were grazing in every country of the world, and had entered the breeding stock with a baa, moo and a Mona Lisa smile. The entire world had been eating imported British beef and lamb chops well since the ground floor of the disease in the 70’s so laughing Papuan prions were Pac-manning up brainstems from Budapest to Bora Bora. The world ban on beef and the ’88 law against grinding up sheep did not stop the progression of BSE in England. Cows kept dying. Brits waited for the next hoof to fall and fall it did. The number of infected dead cows soared from 1989’s mere 7000 (only a percentage of the cows that died were tested) to 36,000 in 1992. In eleven years, 160,000 British cows had gone four hoofs to the sky and there still wasn’t an official murmur about human contagion—aside from Dr. Lacey whom no one took seriously,— not a mention of the possibility of the disease munching its way another insidious step up the food chain but in the 90’s, the human form of the disease, CJD, began to show its subatomic teeth.

In 1993, W.H.O. (World Health Organization) figures indicated a total of 250 suspected, 117 proven CJD deaths with the average age of the victims being 27 years (descending from the former CJD average of 63 years). But the bell didn’t stop tolling: 56 Brits died of CJD in 1994, followed by 42 cases in l995. March 20th, 1996, Agriculture Minister Dorrell announced to the world that British scientists "suspected a link" between BSE and it’s human equivalent, CJD. Dorrell’s admission caused a furor which put photos of stumbling, cross-eyed, drooling cows on TV’s across the planet. English schools immediately stopped serving beef in cafeterias. All this ruckus shot American beef, grain, soy and especially corn prices sky high in slavering anticipation of the US cornering the feed market as it became necessary to fatten the planet’s cows on something other than their dead brothers.

THIRTEEN REASONS WHY MAD COW IS IN YOUR FRIDGE TODAY:

1.) MAD COW, SCRAPIE and CJD are mutations of a cannibal disease. A mammal gets it by eating the infected flesh of another mammal, although corneal transplants and pituitary injections also carry it.

2.) US/Brit Sheep were infected simultaneously back in the 70s. In both countries, sheep’s dead bodies were turned into protein powder and fed to cows. Britain banned "death kibble" in ’88. It’s still 100% legal in USA.

The number one recommendation of the World Health Organization was that no "part or product" of any animal showing signs of a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE), or mad cow-like disease, should be fed to any animal. "All countries," the guideline reads, "must ensure the slaughter and safe disposal of TSE-affected animals so that TSE infectivity cannot enter any food chain." Yet, in the U.S., it remains legal to feed deer and elk known to be infected with a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy called chronic wasting disease to livestock such as pigs and chickens (which in turn is ground up to feed to cows).

Dr. Richard Race is a Senior Investigator with the National Institutes of Health. In 2001, he published a landmark paper showing that even species thought to be resistant to particular strains of prions could invisibly harbor the disease and pass it on to other animals. He also found that these deadly prions were somehow able to adapt to the new species, becoming even more lethal and replicating faster and faster.

At a 2002 symposium on chronic wasting disease, Dr. Race expressed concern that U.S. cattle could be invisibly harboring chronic wasting disease and passing it on to humans. The reason Dr. Race is so concerned is because chronic wasting disease seems unique in that it’s the only prion disease thought to be spread by casual contact between deer through exposure to, or exchange of, bodily fluids such as saliva. And, the best available research suggests that CWD prions can infect humans as well, perhaps even as readily as mad cow disease can. Dr. Race wonders if people could become silent carriers as well. And, "If these people are subclinical carriers," Race asked, "do they represent a threat to other people?" All transmissible spongiform encephalopathy’s are invariably fatal. Consumer advocates argue that these prions should not be allowed to enter into the food chain.

In May 2003, the Food and Drug Administration finally drafted up proposed voluntary "suggestions" for the rendering industry, recommending that deer and elk infected with chronic wasting disease, or at high risk for the disease, be excluded from animal feed. However, even if this proposal is enacted, it represents only nonbinding, non-enforceable "guidance" recommendations for the industry. The FDA made these same kinds of "guidance" recommendations to pharmaceutical companies over a decade ago, discouraging the use of bovine-derived materials from countries with mad cow disease in manufacturing their vaccines, only to learn 7 years later that major pharmaceutical manufacturers simply ignored the guidelines.

Europe’s Scientific Steering Committee met in 2003 and agreed that the United States should comply with the World Health Organization guidelines and ban the feeding of animals infected with chronic wasting disease to other animals. The United States seems to remain the only country that knowingly allows prion infected animals to be fed to other animals, including those destined for the dinner plate.

3.) MAD COW causes NO ANTIBODY RESPONSE. When infection enters any body, human or animal, the victim’s immune system shows no sign of fighting the infection as it does with bacteria, germs and viruses which means the mammal’s immune system can neither detect nor fight it nor can scientists use the antibody-search method to see if someone is sick, as we do with AIDS and other diseases.

4.) CJD disease takes 10-50 years to eat away the human brain. In COWS, death can strikes as early as one year after exposure, and as late as 8 years.

5. ) Mad-cow causes a genetic mutation which is transmissible so if you have it and are starting a family all your children will have it. Sheep and cows pass it to offspring, too and chickens to their eggs. If it weren’t transmissible, why for decades had the FDA demanded that all donors to the blood supply answer the question "has anyone in your family died of Creutzfeldt-Jakob?" The disease is 100% inherited and one drop of blood of a descendant of a CJD victims can infect all your descendents down through time.

6.) No scientist can tell if a cow or human is in an incubating phase. Except for brain biopsies, there are no tests, no genetic markers. Prions are not reliably found in urine. You can see prions in brain tissue but you cannot open the skull of a live mammal to scoop them out. If a cow whose milk you are drinking has it, her calf, sent to be a veal chop last winter, had it when you ate him. An older cow may fall over dead with it, but meanwhile her sick, offspring are long gone to human tables. The long incubation period means the farmer can’t always see that the animal is ill. The USDA studies the brain of 100 cows per hundred thousand—a snippet of a sample indeed.

Example of no-one knowing what is going on: March 2004, John Stewart would like more testing too. He is CEO of Creekstone Farms, a beef processing company in Arkansas City, Kan., which, he said, has been losing $100,000 a day since the sick cow was reported in Washington state. Creekstone’s problem is that it sells much of its meat overseas, and 50 countries have closed their borders to American beef. "Can there be another case of BSE in the United States?" said Stewart. "Of course there could. Will there be? Who knows?" (Which says he doesn’t know the ramification of BSE). There are testing kits that can give quick indications as to whether an animal carries BSE. They are used in other countries, but the U.S. Agriculture Department has not yet approved any of them, saying it wants to make sure they are reliable. (How would they test for something when it doesn’t show up and there are no markers to test for. Is this a true scientific project or a smokescreen to stall people). Creekstone offered to mollify its overseas customers by paying for testing itself. It has not gotten an answer from Washington. "Waiting, or not doing anything, we believe, is not prudent," said Creekstone’s Stewart. "We think this is something that should be dealt with swiftly." (How could they test when this cow that was suspected of Mad Cow disease had to have the brain tissue sent to England and we had to wait for a couple of weeks to get the results. What does that tell you?)

The Department of Agriculture answers that it is taking tough steps: It says it will test 40,000 cows for the disease—double what it did last year. (Which is so small why bother, except they can say they have tested. Where did they send these cattle’s brains to since they had to send the one cow’s brains to England. So many inconsistencies.) It says any so-called "downer" cows—animals sick enough that they cannot walk —will be removed quickly from the food supply. (Of course if they already have it in them they may be butchered before they show signs.) Inspectors did not have instructions to do that before December 2003. It has tightened standards for animal feed, so that one cow cannot get the disease from another. "I think we have really put in place all the things that need to be done to assure the public that the meat supply is safe," said Bobby R. Acord, administrator of the Agriculture Department’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. (Looks like they still don’t have a clue or they are trying to appease the Cattle Industry).

7.) Mad-Cow is killing faster and faster. It was once thought humans could incubate the disease for up to five decades without going into the final, dementia stage but lately Brit teens have been dying of it so it appears Mad-Cow prions evolve the way everything else does.

8.) The only way for a farmer to find the disease in his herd is via a $500 autopsy. Farmers prefer selling the corpse to a rendering factory for $100 profit, a practice still legal in the America at this time of writing.

9.) Mad Cow prions can’t be killed the way we fought the plague or fight cholera epidemics, or Ebola, by burning bodies. It is passed on via "prions," proteins that degrade at 800 Fahrenheit, way above the temperature that would reduce them to ash. What is more, burning is a bad idea, as prion molecules go up in the smoke, airborne and fall back on the land. As they were never alive, they do not die. These zombie molecules just wait for the next set of munching teeth.

10.) Though Mad-Cow attacks brains, it’s thought to be in every part of the cow, his flesh, blood and urine. The contamination cannot be removed by cooking or powdering him. A British Vegan woman caught it simply by dusting her roses with blood meal.

Researchers from Switzerland have discovered that prions, the hardy infectious proteins responsible for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease can be detected in skeletal muscle of affected patients. This finding, they said, suggests that surgical equipment used on patients with CJD could subsequently transmit the virus to others because the sterilization procedures routinely used for surgical implements do not destroy prions (New England Journal of Medicine, vol. 349, pages 1812-1820). Using a extremely sensitive prion detection method, the researchers examined brain tissue and extraneural organs of 36 patients with sporadic CJD. In addition to detecting prions in the brain tissue of all patients, they found prions in 10 of 28 spleen specimens and in 8 of 22 samples of skeletal muscles. Neurological examinations of patients in the prodromal stages of sporadic CJD often include electromyography and muscle biopsies. Thus, the researchers said finding prions in skeletal muscle of patients with the disorder "reinforces calls for the use of single-use needle electrodes and of special protocols for the sterilization of surgical instruments used for biopsies."

11.) USA has had thousands of "downer" cows (dying mysteriously) since 1981 Dr. Richard Marsh, a virologist on the Veterinary staff at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, stated that he had seen 100 cases of BSE in America, between 1981 and 1989. If the bug entered US beef 15 years ago and has been multiplying ever since, a million cows could be infected.

12.) MAD-COW
mortality figures hide behind the skirts of Alzheimer’s. Some U.S. doctors know the truth yet haven’t blown whistles. Pittsburgh Veterans hospital autopsied 53 sequential Alzheimer’s victims. Sampling #1 showed 5.5% had died of Mad-Cow, sampling #2 that 6.3% died of Mad-Cow. Alzheimer’s death tolls are doubling and tripling, not characteristic of a genetic disease ergo the shadowy presence of another PROBABLE CAUSE.

13.)
No lab in the USA will do a Mad-cow autopsy as the prion cannot be burned out or sterilized afterwards, so on all our death certificates, officially, we’re going to die of you guessed it, Alzheimer’s and the cows? They’re "downers." That’s all.

Since beef and sheep farmers have been sending "downe"’ livestock to rendering factories to be made into "protein powder" for livestock for the last 26 years, Mad Cow prions could be in every ounce of meat, milk, pork, chicken, egg, cheese, or butter you have eaten since 1970 and in every bite you eat today and in gelatin caps, animal glandular supplements and in the glue on the postage stamp you will use to mail a Xerox of this article to your Aunt Edna.

Forget Ebola, which kills you so fast you can’t move ten feet and give it to anyone else and which you can blow out like a birthday candle with a good bonfire. Mad Cow is the most prevalent, virulent disease to hit this planet since the plague. Conceivably it could represent the end of all human life here.

It is certain that we will see many more cases associated with CJD than we have ever seen with AIDS as Mad Cow infection has been found all over Europe.

A few days after the Brit’s admission, the USDA issued statements that American beef was clean. "The US did not use sheep for bypass protein cattle feed." This is an outright lie. In the USA, thousands of downer sheep have been used to feed cows and of late, America has an enormous amount of "downer" cows to feed them, too.

Virologist Vet Marsh knows of what he speaks. All those BSE cow bodies he saw in Wisconsin 1981-1989 had been fed dead sheep yet the cows’ became "feeder cattle" and went to feed thousands of other cows who have bred thousands of animals. Papuan prions have been spread to herds from Maine to Hawaii. Knowing the genetic mode of transmission of the disease is to all offspring, it is reasonable to suspect that there is sponge brain infection slowly crawling up the brain stem of every cow in America as well as all the humans who have eaten them as well as all the offspring of both species. And to pigs, and chickens who were also fattened with the deadly Soylent Green. As a poultry farmer told a prion researcher, "rendering salesmen brought us bags of this powder saying it was wonderful stuff and had ever so many uses: we could use it for fertilizer or to feed our chickens."

As so many CJD deaths are masked, as Alzheimer and private labs won’t let CJD tissue in the door to be examined, it is certain the American public will not be informed of the disease that is in our food, our kitchens and our bodies. Dr. Richard Deandrea, a L.A. physician who has studied CJD and BSE extensively, tells of his first CJD patient. After her death, which featured frills atypical of Alzheimer’s (fingers numb, blindness, slurred speech, weak knees,) Deandrea dogged the Center for Disease Control for a pathologist who’d give him an autopsy to see if it might be CJD. C.D.C. evaded 3 weeks of his calls. Finally, a female CDC staffer told him that off the record—she’d deny it later— "CJD is an issue no pathologist will deal with, a virtual death sentence to a lab. A well-trained pathologist knows the quarantine would never be lifted. You couldn’t sterilize the lab to OSHA protocols. It would have to be gutted, incinerated. Forget it. Your patient died of Alzheimer’s." So, there may be CJD deaths but there sure aren’t going to be CJD death certificates. On March 20th, 1996, the very day that Minister Dorrell lit the fuse on the Mad-Cow bomb in London, a Florida man died of CJD. His wife gave a TV interview describing his shaking knees, his lack of coordination, then quick parabola into a vegetative state, followed by death and said that her husband had never traveled abroad in his life. Why would he have to? Prions enjoy the American climate. They mutate into Natural Born killers of the speediest kind here although American reporters seem the first to manifest the dementia. 1,490 dailies in the USA, 11 big TV networks and only CNN carried the story of the man’s death airing it March 28th. True, the Oprah Show had an ex beef rancher on, who had seen U.S. sheep and cows dying of Mad-Cow but that won’t happen twice. Beef dropped 150 points on the stock market while the show was on the air and the beef industry sued Oprah.

Small stations are more likely to reveal death toll statistics. In California, KCAL-TV News reported two CJD deaths, one in Stockton the other San Francisco. Dr. Deandrea knew of a death in Lancaster CA and another in Minnesota, all in the last few weeks yet the NIH claims it knows of only 11 CJD deaths since ’94,—no surprise if there isn’t a lab in the country that will allow a suspected CJD death case in the door for an autopsy!

Scientists who invented the "bypass protein" method of feeding livestock (taking the rendered corpse of dead animals, grinding it into meat meal, mixing it in with grains,) have turned an attractive planet into a potential graveyard. Scientists who turned healthy herbivores (animals who eat no meat) into cannibals for the first time in their billion year history may have shot themselves and humanity in the collective hoof. Of course, there are other animal husbandry practices which have made cows vulnerable to pathogens, which have given Mad-Cow a running start.

Even if there were no prions lurking, when you feed an herbivore protein, its body produces ptomaine’s, which causes lesions or tubercles in its body. That means tuberculosis. In 1989 the National Association of Federal Veterinarians decided to create a "test-balloon" state. They allowed California to sell meat infected with tuberculosis, a practice illegal since 1906. TB immediately went up 36% in humans in the sunshine state.

Bovine immune systems have been destroyed by still other, common practices: massive daily injections of synthetic growth/lactation hormones, which exhaust the cow who is chemically stimulated to give 40% more milk. Then, there is the anti-biotics necessary as such a regimen paves the way for multiple infections. Then—the horrific, painful mutilation of cows with more than 4 teats. (Many have 8 teats; extras are amputated without anesthetics.) Then there’s de-horning, also done without anesthetics. Calves are taken away at two days so the cow has 305 days of milking, then a 2-day starvation period (no food or water) to dry up her milk to get her ready to "calve" again. And the killer cycle starts all over again driving the poor cow literally mad. A happy cow would live 25 years on a happy farm. A dairy cow is exhausted at 3 to 5 years of age. She is slaughtered and her corpse eaten by humans as hamburger.

So these are the facts. Prions are here to stay and if this disease has worked its way up to the top of the Food Chain and the fact is known by American researchers, why do these educated men remain silent? The Pittsburgh Veterans Hospital sampling never hit the newspapers. The definitive paper on Mad-Cow, written by the foremost U.S. prion researcher, professor of neurology and biochemistry, Dr. Stanley Prusiner of the University of California School of Medicine, San Francisco, is curiously without mention of the danger of eating meat. For ten thousand words, Prusiner just goes on and on about prions bonding with other prions as if he were studying the mating habits of penguins. His 10,000-word magna opus never mentions the words "meat," once. You’d think that if an obscure, New Guinea cannibal brain disease showed up in American war veterans, researchers would ask questions like "why don’t doctors do Alzheimer’s brain autopsies in a designated-to-be-compromised lab put in every city and why don’t veterinarians do cow and sheep autopsies in every slaughterhouse?" Why cling to this dainty-lab fetish? The average kitchen is already as infected as any morgue on the planet. So OK, maybe science has made a few boo-boos here but why the enormous non-confront and zip-the-lip silence from all interested parties? Is it that lab restrictions are too tough or that scientists are ostriches, or that governments and world banks fear bankruptcy? Or is there some kind of oligarchic "Life-boat" theory at work? (i.e. that the upper classes have decided to toss us peons out of the lifeboat.) All of that is possible but in reality, there probably is simply some kind of myopic stupidity that goes with specificity. Scientists are Johnny One-Notes. They wander around in their specialty, in Prusiner’s case, stunned by a maze of bonding prion molecules and can’t see the forest for the trees or if he used the word meat, his research would be tossed out?

If (as Pittsburgh concludes) 6% of Alzheimer’s cases are really CJD, in the next 4 years, 840,000 US humans will die of CJD and if they were of childbearing age when they caught it, 2 million children and 4 million grandchildren carry it in their genes and these 4 million people walking the USA today do not know that they will go into spasms, then idiocy, then comas, costing the families and the health system $120,000 per patient and so will all their descendents, forever. Today we see the obvious feature of Alzheimer’s; this genetic disease was doing something genetic disease don’t do, doubling and tripling its toll. There was certainly reason for scientists to suspect another culprit but, except for Dr. Lacey of Leeds, nobody did. After Lacey was excommunicated, of course, maybe nobody wanted to be a whistleblower.

But there were others: Haresh Narang, a microbiologist, hired by the Public Laboratory Services in New Castle, said CJD in humans came from BSE. Microbiologist Dr. Steven Doeller, said scrapie, CJD and BSE were the same thing. All were roundly ignored but a quarter century of misdemeanor petty denial was trumped in 1995, a halcyon year of felony-sized cover-up, when Dr. Lacey’s book on Mad Cow was trashed in the British Medical Journal and shrugged off by New Scientist, (helping the book sell, actually).

That the Brits admit anything about soggy brains and beef is probably valiant when you compare it to the American response. When the USDA heard that Britain was planning to slaughter 11 million cows they said brightly: "Great, we’ll sell England our beef. We have a surveillance program here, we’ve gone through 43 states, and seen 2,660 specimens and found no cases of BSE." Apart from the greed of that statement, examine its mendacity. The USA has approximately 200,000 animals slaughtered daily. If they did open the skulls and look inside, this test still represents one out of 75 cows, or 3/4 of ONE percent of the daily CORPSE PILE. Worse, all officialdom here knows full well that sheep are still fed to cows. Convenient silences and outright lies seem to have migrated to the new world, along with infected sheep.

MIT and the NIH first explored a connection between BSE, animal foods and dementia as far back as 1981, when American cows began to come down with a mystery disease known as "Downer Cow Syndrome," suspiciously like BSE. Many of the downers had previously exhibited symptoms of the jitters, others just suddenly dropped dead. Their brains were fed to mink that quickly manifested Mad-Mink disease. In any case, downer cow corpses revealed BSE brain pathology yet not a peep came from these scientists, not a whispered word to the farmers to stop rendering sheep into cattle feed, not a warning to the public to stop feeding beef to children. Okay, NIH is Washington, but what could provoke MIT to put a sock in it? Are they federally funded or something?

MIT scientists knew the truth yet American farmers were allowed to sell sheep corpses for 26 years and cow corpses for 15. Worse, you and I were allowed to feed infected meat to our children. When the scandal first hit, one Department of Agriculture staffer actually said that the rendering practice has been outlawed in the USA. A few days later, another staff said "we discontinued (that practice) earlier." Two liars tripping over each other. The truth is, to this day, it has been left to the farmer’s discretion. There are no laws on the books. In all other countries the "cash for corpses" practice is illegal. In the USA it is entirely voluntary whether a farmer renders corpses or doesn’t. No US farmer can afford to ignore free hundred dollar bills so render they do.

Examining the facts, it is clear that denial, lies and benign propaganda are damage control, intended to prevent panic. A cynic might say that they were intended to allow knowledgeable investors to profit as the US cornered the world beef and feed market. U.S. grain futures SOARED to a 15 year high after Britain’s admission, in anticipation of all that US beef and feed being exported, so no one can say the cynic is wrong. The Brits saw through us; they screamed that we have plenty of the disease here, that they got their sheep powder practices from us. They want all American animal products banned saying that the awful offal powder is fed not only to US cows, but reminding us that meat and bone meal imported from Britain (1980-1989) was used for U.S. poultry feed.

Again, USDA officials responded with trickery, pulling out a red herring, saying they’ve never found a sick chicken. Of course not. The problem with detecting the disease in birds is that they never live long enough to get the Swiss cheese brain. The average fryer is mature at 32 days. (Before the wonders of chemistry and all those magic pep powders, it took farmers a costly 84 days to mature a bird.) No U.S. fryer lives long enough to manifest dementia but if it’s genetically in his brain, it’s in the strands of his nerves and he lives more than long enough to give the disease to the person who eats chicken or eggs.

NOTE: The practice of rendering bodies and using them for animal feed was not stopped by federal law until almost a year later. On January 3rd, 1997, it was announced that offal could no longer be used to feed animals eaten by humans. Mad Cow Disease is nature’s last laugh on mammal-eat-mammal mankind.

Health food nuts may preen that their beef was raised organically, fed only grain and grass. The problem in logic is that this is a genetically transmissible disease. The unorganic Cow passes it on to her milk-lapping calf that is already infected when he is sold to the organic farmer. Mom gave BSE to her baby both through the cagy prion taking over her DNA and through her udder. Baby’s health food diet does not stop the slowly eroding sponge brain from invading this happy, health food-chewing heifer or invading a chicken’s egg or invading your child when she eats a veal chop at dinner and follows it with a glass of milk swimming with prions, using dishware in a kitchen so infected with prions that if it were a laboratory, it would be burned down to the ground.

WHAT ABOUT COOKING THE MEAT OR MILK? The pasteurizing of milk, at 150 degrees, makes the prion think it’s a sunny day. The cooking of meat at 212 degrees makes him think he’s in a pleasant sauna. Raising the heat to frying in the 320 range might make him even blink but you must reduce the prion to total ash at 340 degrees centigrade (in our American Fahrenheit system that would be 800 degrees) to immobilize him and take away his sexual potency—his ability to replicate.

There is no solvent known to immobilize the Mad-Cow spore. This kind of microbial tenacity is so Sci-Fi it raises the hair of the medical community. If you ask a doctor to do an autopsy of a patient who died of CJD, he flees, knowing that if he exposes his lab to this disease, government officials will close down the lab. The NIH’s Paul Brown told reporters that he can clean prions off his hands with Ivory soap. There is a long line of men we’d nominate for the "America’s most dangerous man" contest but Brown is a serious contender for the crown.

The truth is simple. The medical community has no cure for CJD. It is very simply fatal. Alternative, holistic remedies have not been tried on the prion. Dr. Richard Deandrea feels that if you think you’ve been exposed, enzyme therapy might work, seeing that proteins can be dissolved by enzymes, which are found in raw foods. But Prusiner has written that this protein molecule laughs off all the enzymes he tried on it. So it looks inevitable.

Choose vegetarian proteins like hummus, tofu, beans. You’ll be healthier in every way as these proteins don’t tax the immune system as much as "foreign flesh." Immune systems love a whole, live, raw food diet so eat raw, dark-green salads with nuts, sprouts and seeds. Do as much cleansing as possible, through colonics. Take periodic raw juice fasts. Besides a vegan diet of vegetables grown on organic soil, take "good fat" supplements like flaxseed and borage oil, also the oils found in nuts and seeds. Don’t increase dairy, it clogs digestive tract and could be infected with prions. Make almond milk, brown rice milk, tofu milk. Avoid soymilk. It lines the gut with plastic. Don’t use soybeans in any unfermented form or give soy formula to babies. It has been implicated in the rising "crib death" rates. Use fermented soy like miso, tofu and tempeh. Discover the pleasure of tahini. Make your own humus, a kind of Israeli bean dip. Take multivitamin supplements. Blue green algae, Spirulina, chlorella are complete foods with B-12. Animal-source B-12 is dangerous now. Go 100% true natural.

If Mad Cow is in meat, it could be in dairy products and eggs; it’s in mayonnaise. It’s in the gelatin in candy or around a vitamin pill. It’s in blood meal fertilizer, urea fertilizer and the manure clinging to mushrooms. Animal derivatives are used in vaccines, pharmaceuticals like Premarin, in glandular substances used in holistic remedies like melatonin, in pet foods, gloves, film, plastics. British leather was banned by Egypt a week after Minister Dorrell’s admission.

Total vegetarianism may be the answer until this is cleared out of our livestock. Vegetarianism always was a do-able thing. Some say that Type O blood does not do well with it, so type O’s might continue to use fish, but Type A’s can easily embrace millet, avocado and sprout-proteins.

In the Jeff Rense newsletter he list products that are made from cattle. It is a long list. His website where you can retrieve this information is www.rense.com You will be surprised by what it is in.

I don’t like to do stories that don’t have a happy ending. There is a way to stop the prions in your body. At this time, March-April 2004, I only know of one way, and that is homeopathic and vibrational homeopathic remedies. The vibrational homeopathic remedy has many items in it and is one of a kind made especially for Prions. If anyone wants this remedy, call me and I will work with others to get this to everyone that calls.

This is a 6-months commitment. If you are eating meat during the time of taking the remedy you will have what is called pull-outs of the prions and will experience some discomfort which will go away with time. I will send instructions with the remedy. It would benefit you to stop meat in your diet during this time. Stopping all meat and dairy products will be a big change in your life and some people do not want to go there. After your 6-months, if you go back to meat products, you will have to be on the remedy the rest of your life. Most people are hoping scientist can come up with an answer and they are working on it. There are several humans that are taking some drugs at this time to see if they work.

There is no charge for the remedy or the handling. If you would like to help with the postage, you can send stamps. You will wait until you receive the package and see what the postage is before you send any stamps. You cannot send any extra money of any kind. You can only send stamps. Please honor this, as I will have to turn around and send it back to you. This is one of the service projects that some of us do for humanity and we have promised GOD that it would be a service project when we went to school to learn the vibrational homeopathic way. In Spokane we have 4 people trained in this form of homeopathy. In the Seattle area there are a few more. 509-838-8155.

The pharmaceutical companies are working frantically to come up with a remedy.
