Hemorrhagic lesions in neurological disorders are well documented.
The hemorrhaging in viral infections is legendary. Want to argue this point, before anyone does, please cross-reference hemorrhage with meningitis.
Encephalitis, meningitis, and herpes all will call hemorrhaging. Cross reference these to bleeding in the brain.
The question becomes:
If all these viral infections cause hemorrhaging, and ALS has associations to a couple of viruses, (cytomegalo, retro, epstein barr) then what effective strategy can we develope that will support other therapies?
Ascorbate is buffered vitamin c.
It is most recommended for viral infections and has proven to cause viral dormancy by inhibbitting replication of Rna. Viral DNA is single stranded and vulnerable to ph and other substances.
Even the AMA sponsored study which trashes anti viral properties of vit. c, still documented 30% reduction in symptoms after lowering the doses for this study.
Why did they lower the dose of any drug if they are comparing study for study results? Isn't this way, way off?
Acyclovir is being given to several autoimmune patients and this exploits the same mechanisms. Preventing Rna transcription of viruses. That's how it works in HIV.
Vitamin c is proven to bind to most exposed sequences and blocks transcription. But only at tissue saturation points which is why we see mega dosing as it his hard to achieve tissue saturation with water soluable substances.
Vitamin c also is needed to manufacture immune cells, immune cytokines, interferon.
It also is precurrsor to collagen, needed to strengthen blood vessels and tissues. Repair of injured tissues.
Ascorbates will also donate electrons an help eliminated H ions, increasing ph. It also donates electrons to mitochondira to set up electrical polarity that drives the ATP synthesis.
If you have an autoimmune, it would be silly not to be on an ascorbate protocol. Contraindicated with renal failure is a warning!
There is a huge book out and written by high level researchers from accross the globe. The name of the book,
"Infections and Autoimmune."
