Is it possible that key knowledge known by Robert Erdmann over 20 years ago got lost?

Dear Curezone:

I often have wondered over the years if somehow it is possible that critical healing knowledge known by Robert Erdmann in his book "The Amino Revolution" somehow got lost... or if Robert Erdmann's knowledge of how to use free form amino acids was simply missing some key components to it that were important to effective amino acid use for many.

To explain the above, Robert Erdmann wrote a very insightful book in 1987 called "The Amino Revolution". In this book, he offered a number of suggestions for combining free form amino acids, vitamins, and minerals to deal with various health issues. He also suggested the use of balanced broad based free form amino acids to be used whenever individual free form amino acids were used therapeutically as well.

Although Robert Erdmann did not offer many dosage suggestions at all, at one point in his book, he recommended up to 15 grams of balanced broad based amino acids taken up to three times a day for men, and up to 10 grams three times a day for women. (I do not know why he saw "a difference for the sexes" here.)

When I read Robert Erdmann on amino acids, and compare his overall knowledge with an author (that I will not name) that is considered an "amino acid expert" today, I think that Erdmann wins "hands down".

I state the above despite the fact that he missed a rather well known amino acid inhibitor named taurine for a number of things (Erdmann often listed histidine in its place).

I also state the above because I think that he missed a key to using broad based free form amino acids in adequate therapeutic dosages... and that is to increase one's acetylcholine level at the same time. (Acetylcholine seems to act as some sort of a necessary buffer for free form amino acids in the brain. When I don't bump up my acetylcholine level a little when taking the free form amino acid mix that I take, I can get a little bit of headache sometimes, especially when taking higher dosages of amino acids. For me, taking 15 gram or greater dosages of free form amino acids just does not work as well unless I supplement to make some acetylcholine in my brain as well.)

Regardless of Robert Erdmann missing a few things, if anyone reads his book (I cannot recommend it enough for anyone into alternative medicine), perhaps they cannot help but wonder what happened to this knowledge over the past 21 years. How come it never moved forward? And how come so few persons really know deep in their heart (from self experience) about the tremendous therapeutic power of broad based amino acids?... as my son Willy and I solidly do.

It may be worthy to note an odd coincidence here. The first book that I am aware of that regarded the use of free form amino acids to treat Depression was the book "The Way Up From Down" by Priscilla Slagle, M.D. (This book is now a free ebook on
http://www.thewayup.com.)
This book was published in 1987... and so was Robert Erdmann's. Free form amino acid use was solidly developing over twenty years ago, but it seems to have not matured that far... and it still is not being used nearly as much as it should.

I often wonder why balanced broad based amino acid use is not a standard part of effectively dealing with any "mental illness" involving neurotransmitter deficiency, such as Depression or manic Depression (and perhaps a whole host of other "mental illnesses" as well).

I wonder the above especially in light of the fact that broad based amino acid use is so obvious. Amino acids represent roughly 70% of the functional chemistry of the body once the water is taken out. And they are the primary nutrient precursors to roughly 99 out of the 100 or so known neurotransmitters. They are also the primary nutrient raw material for roughly 95% of the hormones in the body. As such, the fact that their therapeutic use in any illness involving neurotransmitter or hormone deficiency should be ALWAYS be considered should be patently obvious.

Is it possible that no one has yet figured out how how to use broad based free form amino acids in a balanced enough fashion as to help many persons while rarely, if ever, causing any major problem, as I seem to have done with "Willy's baggie" formula.

Who knows?

I do know that my own self experience with taking over 100,000 capsules of free form amino acids since 1997 has taught me healing knowledge that I still can not find in any alternative medical book.

And I know is that it has not been uncommon for the past four computers that I have been using at home to get almost 1,000 attempted intrusions a day, or well over 5,000 attempted intrusions a week, to the point of them not working at all. On this fifth computer that I have gone online at home with (the one that I am writing this blog with), except for some serious "burps" (odd things that were not supposed to happen), it still seems to work. My intrusion count is quite a bit less than the past four computers that I have used since June 2006, when I first posted my son Willy's original recovery story to the Internet. On this computer I have only had 2,331 attempted intrusions (as counted by a firewall) within the past two weeks, of which 45 were "high rated". However, even these numbers seem high vs. the norm, especially the "high rated" one.

And I do know one other thing... and that is that Big Pharma has to be deathly afraid of adequately balanced broad based free form amino acids being properly applied to a depressive state, especially when coupled with "a little dietary and gut knowledge" as well. Such knowledge about free form amino acids, etc., if it ever became "common knowledge", could virtually collapse the entire class of antidepressant medications, and cost Big Pharma hundreds of billions of dollars as well.

An addendum: I continue to attach my son Willy's picture to blogs on
http://360.yahoo.com/allen_dar,
as in regard to overcoming ADHD and manic depression naturally, he has set a course to follow for the entire world. Willy's baggie of supplements and his taking probiotics daily continues to give him great results, and we continue to learn more and more over time. Willy is still only seventeen (he will turn eighteen in September). He continues to get healthier and stronger month after month. I am absolutely amazed that Willy, after being a weak and sickly child all throughout his childhood, can bench press 315 lbs., do seven one hand pull-ups, and can do handstands against a wall and then do twenty push-ups of his entire body with his feet in the air, despite his weighing about 170 lbs.. And Willy is "mood stable as a rock", unless he overeats too much of his allergic foods. (He knows how immediately correct for these very minor mood dips from his making poor food choices from time to time, and he has known this stuff for years.)
