Working on Holding Back Myeloma
Began these 1 week ago, 3-per-day, based on Jon Barrons essay from Baseline Health. These are almost exactly the same, but with a more affordable price for us. Did the conversions and he's recommending 183,000 USP per day for cancer. We're dealing with the diabolical multiple myeloma, a form of blood cancer that warps the blood plasma cells. No way to get into the bones to directly attack the problem as it isn't actually a "thing." But myeloma kicks out massive amounts of junk protein. It clogs the kidneys and causes major problems. We're looking at it as an infection, and using the proteolytic enzymes in conjunction with the somewhat lesser toxic chemotherapy drugs. Those are bad enough, and we want to do something to reduce the excess protein. So far there don't seem to be a negative effects.
The biggest problem is having them on an empty stomach. The lady is in a skilled nursing facility, and aside from monitoring any medications, there are regular meals. So we're having to work within that structure. We have a light-chain protein count at the moment, from just prior to starting the enzymes. She's been on Velcade and Dexemethasone, and we're trying to handle the excess steroid issues as well. I'll update when we get the next light-chain count.
Update: After 10 days, we checked the lab work. A normal person has a particular light-chain protein count of 2. At diagnose, this lady was upwards of 450. We've knocked it down to around 65, but it was creeping up to around 79 and the oncologist was looking at a different chemo drug. The labs came back with that protein having gone from 79 to 54. Quite impressive! The only thing we changed was the use of the Pro-OneZyme. We'll continue, along with the many other supplements.
