Jeff,
Thank you very much for the information. I can't put in words how much I appreciate your help. I will look into these topics immediately. Thus far, we have started moderate doses of the Vitalzyme and small quantities of A*****ose and Primal Defense. We plan to treat the bowels first as they are crucial to immune/health function. He has been on heavy doses of pain killer so he has been constipated. I plan to have him do a salt water flush (in conjunction with Pedialyte to stabilize his electrolyte levels), then move to a veggie/fruit juice fast for 3 days. This should help divert energy away from digestion so the body can concentrate on healing (he isn't eating many solids anyway). Theoretically, the salt water flush will help destabilize the existing gut bacteria, at which point we will introduce a potent pharmaceutical grade probiotic to help cultivate new flora. We also plan to increase the dosages of A*****ose assuming my uncle doesn't have any digestive upset. I'm banking on the fact that the glycos will increase cell to cell communication which might allow the body to correct itself. After the fast, we will start regular intake of a high quality multi vitamin as well as high doses of phytochemical supplements. We are trying to be slow and methodical so that we know what is working and can monitor his progress. We are reluctant to add large amounts of protein to his diet as we don't know if it contributes to the problem. It is amazing to me that none of the well accredited doctors that my uncle has seen would even mention whether or not protein ingestion was problematic.
Thanks again for the info, I will post any significant improvements.
