Protocel Part 3



Though Protocel is NOT a “magic bullet” that will cure everyone, there continue to be astounding recoveries – oftentimes in people who have been given no hope of cure from conventional medicine. Some of the fastest-responding types of cancer may be the childhood leukemias (especially the acute forms), cervical cancer, colon cancer, bladder cancer, basal cell skin cancers and aggressive astrocytoma brain tumors. But Protocel has also been known to bring about complete cures for breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, brain cancer, lymphomas, kidney cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, and melanoma, among others.

As described earlier, Protocel works by interfering with the cell respiration (energy production) of anaerobic cells. Cancer cells happen to be primarily anaerobic. But there are other types of anaerobic cells in the body as well that are not necessarily cancer cells. These are always damaged cells in one way or another and often are involved in conditions such as auto-immune disorders and viral infections. Thus, people have also had success using Protocel to recover from many different chronic illnesses such as arthritis, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and viral conditions. Of these, the intestinal disorders and viral conditions tend to be the fastest responders, with multiple sclerosis and other auto-immune disorders taking longer.

There are two formulations of Protocel : Protocel Formula 50 and Protocel Formula 23. These are only slightly different variations of the same formula and either will work for most conditions. But the 50 is preferred by many people for certain diagnoses and the 23 is preferred for others. Since individuals may respond better to one or the other, having two versions allows people more control over their own recovery. Protocel Formula 50 is taken at about ¼ teaspoonful 4 times a day (spread out evenly around the clock) and the Formula 23 is taken at about ¼ teaspoonful 5 times a day (spread out evenly around the clock). For optimum results, never going more than 6 hours between any two doses is recommended. This means that people using Protocel for critical life-threatening situations will usually get up in the middle of the night to take a dose.

Because Protocel works in a different way than other approaches, by interfering with the cancer cell’s ability to produce energy for itself, supplements that raise cellular energy are to be avoided. This means that people using Protocel should avoid supplementation of vitamin C, vitamin E, coQ10, and selenium, among others. Taking these types of supplements can work against Protocel’s action.

Protocel Part 2



How It Works
"Sheridan [the biochemist developer] developed a chemical substance whose components combine to act synergistically to lower the voltage [i.e. energy] of the [cancer] cell structure of the body. In the case of malignant cells which are anaerobic, their voltage is already low. Sheridan's substance lowers its voltage further." Protocel works by blocking the production/energy of ATP, which in turn lowers the voltage of the cell, causing the cell to eventually self-destruct and literally break apart. The "pieces" of the dead cancer cell are called "lysing."

Protocel part 1



Protocel is a non-toxic liquid formula that thousands of people in the U.S. have used to successfully rid themselves of cancer. It was developed by an American chemist, Jim Sheridan, who first conceived of it in 1936. He spent the following fifty years improving the formula, studying its effects on mice with tumors.
Originally, Sheridan called his formula Entelev®, then a slightly modified version of it was named Cancell®. Since 1999, the formula has been produced as a dietary/nutritional supplement under the name of Protocel. The exact same formula is also currently being sold in Australia under the original Entelev® name.

Protocel was developed specifically as a cancer treatment and designed to target the anaerobic cell respiration of cancer cells. The principle that cancer cells are primarily anaerobic was proven by the Nobel Prize-wining biochemist Otto Warburg. Warburg was the first scientific expert to put forth the idea that cancer cells do NOT use oxygen in their main method of producing energy and claimed that this was the prime difference between cancer cells and normal healthy cells.

Jim Sheridan discovered a unique way to capitalize on this prime difference. He designed Protocel to interfere with the less efficient cell respiration of cancer cells to the point where the cancer cells could no longer produce enough energy for themselves to survive, thus allowing Protocel to target cancer cells while not harming the body’s normal health cells.

Spirulina vs AFA Part 6

There are many high quality spirulina products on the market. Most spirulina is grown on spirulina farms rather than in completely natural situations. The prices for small bottles of the different brands of spirulina, in tablet or powder form, are very competitive. One company offers spirulina in bulk at a significantly lower price. It pays to shop around and ask questions before making your buying decisions.
The same price variations are true for blue-green algae. There are three main companies that harvest blue-green algae. The two companies that harvest directly from Upper Klamath lake offer AFA in bulk at a 50% savings. All three companies at this time claim to do regular algae toxicology testing as well as micro screening for daphnia, a small water flea. They all test for physical contaminants. There is no evidence at this time that any of the algae harvested by the three companies have any problems with algae toxins.
Whichever brand you choose, the blue-green algae are a significant life force on the earth. Algae were the first plants to use sunlight to perform photosynthesis and make their own food from the environment. For three and a half billion years, algae have transformed the planet into a life-support system for we complex multicellular organisms. Spirulina and AFA are an ancient and wonderful team of high life-force foods which have a powerful healing and rejuvenative effect on the human body, mind, and spirit.

Spirulina vs AFA part 5

AFA is one of the few algae which are harvested in their natural state. I have visited Upper Klamath Lake several times and it is beautiful. One of the few remaining alkaline lakes on the planet, it has a very high mineral concentration due to volcanic ash deposited in the area 7000 years ago. The water contains 60 times the nutrients needed for the AFA to reach its full potential.
Perhaps the greatest value of AFA is not in its nutrient concentration or even its high concentration of neuropeptide precursors, but in its amazing positive effect on the nervous system in general, and specifically on the pituitary, pineal, and hypothalamic structures. AFA is an elixir for the brain-mind complex. According to my clinical experience and auricular acupuncture research with another physician, AFA specifically enhances the hypothalamus, the pineal and pituitary glands. These master glands in the brain are associated with the higher subtle spiritual centers.
My first exposure to AFA came in 1982 after returning from a year in India where I had been taking spirulina on a daily basis. I took some AFA just before I starred an all-night dancing spiritual chant. I was astounded by how easy it was for me to stay focused, clear and blissful: I was one of two people out of hundreds who was able to dance through the whole night. Over the years, people taking AFA have consistently reported an overall increase in mental alertness, mental stamina, short and long-term memory, problem-solving ability, creativity, dream recall, enhancement of the visualization process, and a greater sense of well-being and centeredness. Some meditators feel that AFA helps enhance brain synchronization and helps them move more easily into the relaxation of the alpha state and therefore meditation. AFA seems to activate the mind-brain function in about 70-80 percent of those using it.
AFA may have antidepressive and other healing effects as well. I observed one person who had been chronically depressed for most of her life snap out of her depression one day after beginning treatment with the AFA. In another case, a four-year-old mute patient, who had been previously diagnosed as autistic, began to talk after one month on the AFA. These unique cases support my contention that AFA has some specific effect on brain energetics and function.
Because of these brain-enhancing qualities, I became interested in exploring the effect of AFA on Alzheimer's disease. In my preliminary research, which was published in the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine in the 1985 Winter / Spring Issue, I reported positive effects in both of two closely followed clients. Each had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease at highly respected university medical centers.
One client was a 66-year-old woman with a seven-year history of Alzheimer's disease who, after six months, showed a partial reversal of her disease. Her response to the AFA seemed to level off after six months and no further improvement was noted. The second case involved a 64-year-old lawyer who had suffered with Alzheimer's for three years. He seemed to be going downhill rapidly. After one month on high doses of AFA his degenerative process seemed to be arrested and he remained in this stabilized condition for three more years -- until his wife discovered that spirulina was cheaper than AFA and began to give him spirulina instead. Once off the AFA his condition began to deteriorate. The degeneration was slowed down when she put him back on the AFA. This unintended experiment highlights the difference in effect between AFA and spirulina.
These two cases do not prove that AFA cures Alzheimer's disease, but suggest it may be possible to temporarily halt the progression of the disease, to partially reverse or even help prevent it. It would take a comprehensive study to make any definitive statements about its effect on Alzheimer's and, as of yet, no study has been done.

Spirulina vs AFA Part 4

The first company to harvest AFA was started in the mid-sixties by Victor Kollman, the researcher who originally focused on the human use of AFA while working at the Los Alamos National Laboratories in New Mexico.
AFA offers tremendous prana for the mind and nervous system, whereas spirulina is primarily a powerful prana to the entire body. AFA also has a healing effect on the body, but not nearly as powerful as that of spirulina. Spirulina has some effect on the mind and nervous system, but not nearly as strong as that of AFA.
Gram for gram, AFA is one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, a close second only to spirulina. Generally speaking their nutrient profiles are roughly similar. Both are full-spectrum nutrients. Spirulina, however, is significantly higher in GLA, phycotene, protein, and beta-carotenoid concentrations. Both have neuropeptide precursors, but AFA has much higher overall neuropeptide precursor concentrations.
Both have high human-active B-12 concentrations, but AFA has about seven times more B-12 per gram than spirulina. The AFA human-active B-12 amount in one gram equals the daily B-12 requirement for most people. I recommend about 1.5 to 2 teaspoons of AFA per day. Spirulina is the second most concentrated vegetarian B-12 source on the planet, 250 percent more than an equal weight of liver, and has 14 times the daily B-12 need in 100 gms. One tablespoon of spirulina (1 to 3 tablespoons is the average daily dose) will give you two-and-one-half times the daily human-active requirement of B-12. Taken together, spirulina and AFA provide many times the human daily requirement of B-12. No vegetarian need ever worry about not getting enough B-12 in their diet if they are taking either or both of these blue-green algae superfoods.
