• The 9/11 sickness — Some of the impactful situations of an airborne sickness occurred in New York on 9/11. As a result of Twin Towers having a wide range of poisonous substances inside them (e.g., asbestos), their sudden collapse precipitated all of these substances to be launched into the air, making a mud that an air air pollution skilled and College of California Davis Professor Emeritus described as “wildly poisonous.”

On the time, regardless of data on the contrary, the federal government (e.g., each New York Metropolis Mayor Giuliani and Bush’s EPA) insisted the air was secure, and most of the first responders didn’t even put on masks, not to mention correct respiratory tools.

Lots of them at the moment are completely disabled (because the medical system cannot deal with them), typically being gaslighted within the course of (as their accidents had been regularly ascribed to easily being PTSD), and the method to get them compensation or help continues to be ongoing (as many components of the federal government resisted doing something to assist them).

Many developed cancers, and extra individuals have died from 9/11 diseases than from the assaults themselves.

A few of the commonest situations licensed by the World Commerce Heart Well being Program had been rhinosinusitis, gastroesophageal reflux illness (GERD), bronchial asthma, sleep apnea, most cancers, post-traumatic stress dysfunction, respiratory illness, continual obstructive pulmonary illness (COPD), despair, and nervousness dysfunction. The commonest cancers had been pores and skin most cancers and prostate most cancers. An extended checklist of the lined situations will be discovered right here.

One of many noteworthy issues concerning the 9/11 sickness is what number of people described frequently experiencing air starvation although their respiratory perform was intact.

An integrative doctor in New York (after testing their blood), in flip, concluded the air starvation was as a consequence of their mitochondrial respiration being impaired (I by no means labored with these sufferers, however I consider a case is also made for blood sludging — mentioned later on this article — creating the air starvation).

• Vog (Volcanic smog) — As a consequence of how the Hawaiian islands fashioned, the latest (and largest) island has an energetic volcano that commonly erupts. Since Hawaii can also be a extremely fascinating space to stay in, it supplies a novel window into what occurs from common publicity to volcanic smog.

Among the commonest results of vog are complications (considered as a consequence of heavy metals within the vog corresponding to mercury, selenium, arsenic, and iridium) and sore throats (thought-about to be as a consequence of acidic sulfur compounds which primarily compose the vog).

Many usually are not bothered in any respect by the vog, some have lungs which might be extra delicate (prone to the sulfur) however can provide or take tolerate it, and through the years, I’ve heard of many individuals who needed to go away the island as a result of they may now not tolerate the vog.

Within the areas the place the vog is the worst (that is primarily Kona), these with bronchial asthma or COPD typically have exacerbations of their current pulmonary (lung) situations. Among the different situations associates have heard of vog inflicting through the years embrace:

Quite a few approaches exist for coping with vog, and most of the hottest ones are numerous issues thought to eradicate heavy metals.

Word: Vog is primarily a difficulty when the lava move turns into obstructed (resulting in it smoldering and smoking), one thing considerably analogous to the ailments that onsets inside the physique when a fluid move is obstructed).

• Everybody has a crucial threshold. Earlier than that time, their programs can primarily compensate for the stresses already on them and new ones added on later. Nevertheless, as soon as they move the edge, signs quickly develop, tiny further stressors can considerably improve their signs, and it may grow to be very troublesome to stroll them again to the place they had been earlier than they handed that threshold.

Two frequent (however not the one) issues that push sufferers previous this threshold are impaired fluid circulations (e.g., as a consequence of poor zeta potential) and impaired cleansing pathways.

Word: This dynamic will be analogized to “the straw that broke the camel’s again,” and in addition applies to many different illnesses (e.g., ones which might be unrelated to irritation).

• When an inflammatory sickness passes that crucial threshold, it disproportionately impacts the weak factors within the affected person’s system (which can even usually be the place their signs initially come up).

• The Kendrick mannequin — Malcolm Kendrick has made a convincing argument that coronary heart illness arises from inflammatory or mechanical harm to the protecting lining of the blood vessels (the endothelium). This then requires blood clots to kind to patch that harm, and over time, these clots rework into the atherosclerotic plaques classically related to coronary heart illness.

Due to this, he believes elements that harm the endothelium are the first reason behind coronary heart illness and argues for lowering them in parallel to offering elements that shield the endothelium and helps its manufacturing of nitric oxide (which dilates the blood vessels, permitting ample blood provide to the physique).

One of many noteworthy issues about COVID-19 is that the spike protein excels at creating the vascular harm that Kendrick has lengthy argued causes coronary heart illness and strokes (this topic was mentioned additional right here in relation to what causes Alzheimer’s illness).

Word: Kendrick’s mannequin additionally considers stress to be a main contributor to coronary heart illness.

One of many issues that’s identified to extend the danger of coronary heart illness is publicity to particulate matter. Kendrick, in flip, argues that that is as a result of particulates damaging the endothelium. The items of proof he collected to help this speculation had been as follows [the cited quotations are directly from Kendrick’s book]:

• The Klinghardt mannequin — Dietrich Klinghardt is taken into account by many to be one of many pioneers within the integrative medical subject and has handled many difficult sufferers with complicated diseases over the many years. Lots of my associates skilled beneath Klinghardt and his work has significantly influenced the path of integrative drugs in america.

Klinghardt views continual diseases as typically ensuing from a confluence of things that have to be addressed (e.g., EMFs, root canals, surgical scars dysregulating the autonomic nervous system, heavy metals, and unresolved generational conflicts in your loved ones — all of which my mentors and I’ve additionally noticed to be amongst the commonest root causes of continual sickness).

Since Klinghardt focuses on heavy metals, he regularly emphasizes treating them earlier than straight treating a continual an infection as he believes infections (e.g., candida) are sometimes compensatory response to a metallic overload.

When the wildfires occurred, I keep in mind Klinghardt proposing that a lot of the toxicity we had been seeing got here from the truth that the bushes steadily saved heavy metals within the atmosphere and had been expelling them into the atmosphere by being burned. Thus, we had been successfully giving a gradual however continuous heavy metallic publicity to individuals whose programs had been already close to their crucial threshold (a state of affairs not that completely different from the vog in Hawaii).

I requested my California colleague in the event that they agreed with Klinghardt’s evaluation. They did, however acknowledged they didn’t have sufferers the place they examined heavy metallic ranges earlier than and after the hearth. Additionally they added that as a consequence of all of the earlier mining in California (e.g., quite a lot of mercury was used for gold extraction), the bushes have a big heavy metallic burden.

Moreover, they directed me to look at the EPA’s personal analysis exhibiting that wildfires disperse mercury within the atmosphere. That is precisely what the science has discovered, particularly through the hottest wildfire and my California colleague famous that the 2017/2018 wildfires had been so scorching you regularly noticed vehicles that had been melted.

Word: My colleague additionally believed among the fireplace’s toxicity got here from all of the human constructions (e.g., homes) that burned down and dispersed their contents into the ambiance. I additionally suspect many of those buildings had been sufficiently old to have had numerous now-banned constructing supplies like asbestos and lead paint.

• Unfavourable ions and zeta potential — Certainly one of my hobbies is digging up previous books on medical topics I’ve no familiarity with, studying a couple of pages to see if the creator appears educated, and if they seem to, studying their entire e-book.

One such e-book I had that have with was The Ion Impact, which tells an in depth story about how optimistic and unfavourable ions within the atmosphere considerably have an effect on you (with roughly 20% of the inhabitants being noticeably delicate to adjustments in climate from optimistic ions).

Like Earthing, it was instantly obvious that many of the helpful results they attributed to “unfavourable ions” and the dangerous ones from “optimistic ions” matched what I might anticipate every to do because of altering zeta potential (which determines if issues in fluids clump collectively or separate).

Extra importantly, I used to be struck by simply how a lot robust proof existed in so many various fields supporting the worth of unfavourable ion publicity. Nonetheless, this self-discipline has been utterly forgotten and is erroneously seen as being akin to pseudoscience.

Word: I wrote a bit extra with reference to optimistic and unfavourable ions right here and can quickly publish a extra detailed article on that matter.

Most of the helpful results attributed to unfavourable ions matched exactly what I might anticipate from the a zeta potential enchancment wherever the unfavourable ions contacted (whereas the alternative held true for the dangerous optimistic ions).

For instance, burns had been proven to set off extreme blood sludging all through the physique, and early investigators concluded this sludging was probably why burns created so many issues for sufferers. In flip, intensive analysis confirmed that unfavourable ion remedy was miraculous for burn sufferers.

Word: Blood sludging describes blood cells clumping collectively after which separating from plasma. This phenomena is a results of an impaired zeta potential (which usually prevents the cells from clumping collectively) and reduces their motion by means of the circulation.

One other space the place unfavourable ion remedy additionally benefitted sufferers was for all kinds of situations inside the lining of the respiratory tract. In every of those, a unfavourable ion remedy appeared to melt and rehydrate the fluid move to these tissues (one thing that might end result from restoring zeta potential) and thus decreased most of the signs inside them.

Conversely, I’ve additionally discovered that respiratory optimistic ions (e.g., these produced by air flow programs whereas sleeping) typically dries out and irritates the respiratory tract.

Though there’s a substantial amount of analysis on the advantages of unfavourable ion remedy and a couple of exceptional gadgets have been developed for utilizing unfavourable ions to deal with airway situations, presently, the one accepted use for unfavourable ions is for air purification programs.

Right here the unfavourable ions “work” as a result of they bind to positively charged particulate matter that’s suspended within the air, inflicting it to lose the optimistic cost that retains the particle suspended and thus settling it to the bottom.

Because of this, together with the very fact combustion removes electrons (and thereby the unfavourable costs) from what’s burned together with the scientific indicators of wildfire smoke inhalation, I’ve suspected a big a part of the issue with wildfire smoke are the optimistic ions I believe the smoke accommodates.

Word: I’m nonetheless searching for a research that helps or refutes my speculation that wildfire smoke is stuffed with optimistic ions.

The entire analysis on blood sludging primarily confirmed that as zeta potential turned extra impaired, sludging worsened and obstructed the circulation in bigger and bigger blood vessels till it was ultimately deadly.

This was finest proven by observing the course of an untreated malaria an infection in monkeys (e.g., by means of microscopic examination of their blood vessels) and that offering heparin (which, along with being an anticoagulant, by means of its excessive unfavourable cost successfully disperses blood sludging) prevented the monkeys from dying till far later within the an infection. Moreover, this remark was additionally proven in numerous different research (e.g., in burn victims).

What I discovered fascinating concerning the development of blood sludging was that it matched most of the conventional views inside homeopathy (referring to Hering’s Legislation of Treatment) and people inside Chinese language drugs. Moreover, Chinese language drugs has a basic diagnostic sample referred to as blood stasis, which for all sensible functions, mirrors the blood sludging found by Western researchers.

Word: The fashions of “blood stasis” and “blood sludging” attribute many hostile adjustments within the physique to obstructed blood move, whereas I consider in a few of these instances the precise trigger is obstruction of a unique fluid move (e.g., lymphatics), an overlap which happens due to each circulations being affected by impaired zeta potential.

Each of those programs (Chinese language drugs and homeopathy) have noticed that ailments are inclined to enter the physique superficially (on the smallest vessels) after which penetrate deeper and deeper into the physique because the illness worsens.

Because of this, a big a part of their diagnostic mannequin is predicated upon figuring out how deep a pathogenic issue has penetrated, and their remedy is predicated on reversing that course of to expel it from the physique. In distinction, Western drugs typically does the alternative (e.g., by suppressing fevers or rashes).

My general sense from observing the wildfire sickness and COVID-19 is that the ailments initially enter the airway tract (the place they create signs correlating to fluid stasis) and because it penetrates deeper, enters the lungs, then the smallest blood vessels lining the lungs, and eventually the bigger vessels of the physique.

In flip, you possibly can observe individuals at every stage of this development, and people who’ve a chronically impaired zeta potential (e.g., the complicated sufferers with continual inflammatory situations my colleague noticed) are usually essentially the most susceptible to wildfire publicity — a lot in the identical manner these sufferers had been additionally essentially the most susceptible to spike protein accidents (a COVID-19 an infection or a vaccine response).

Word: One of many many uncomfortable side effects of optimistic ions was that they slowed the motion of the cilia (tiny beating hairlike constructions), which the respiratory tract makes use of to clear particulate matter from it. Tobacco smoke plus optimistic ions was discovered to sluggish their motion by 3 to 10 occasions, whereas subsequent publicity to unfavourable ions reversed this suppression of the cilia.

This development from the superficial to the deep vessels (regularly starting with the lungs) can also be similar to what I and others have noticed with progressively worsening COVID-19 infections and vaccine accidents.

This, for instance, I consider, explains the curious COVID-19 phenomena the place sufferers typically have low oxygen readings (that are measured within the smallest blood vessels within the fingers which sludged blood has problem reaching) however concurrently don’t clinically seem like oxygen starved as a result of the blood circulation is preserved of their bigger vessels.

• Do therapies that restore the physiologic zeta potential of the physique. Moreover, one facet of restoring zeta potential is consuming deionized water (distilled or reverse osmosis water), and having a adequate quantity of that water appears to be notably necessary when addressing wildfire accidents.

• Intravenous Vitamin C (when administered early, it significantly helps with wildfire-induced irritation).

• Therapies directed on the fluid obstructions inside the lungs.

• Therapies directed at treating the underlying continual irritation within the affected person (i.e., what existed earlier than the wildfire smoke publicity).

• Nebulized Glutathione (mentioned beneath).

• Heavy metallic chelation (assuming it’s relevant to the affected person).

• Inhaling unfavourable ions. That is ideally executed with one of many medical gadgets developed to deal with the respiratory tract, and fewer ideally executed with a superb unfavourable ion generator (that are exhausting to search out) or going to an space in nature with a considerable amount of unfavourable ions (e.g., a forest with waterfalls and granite [which releases negative ions] or by the ocean).
