Two More Questions:  PTSD & Are you a Distributor for Mannatech?

Thanks, Murph for permission to use your question on this summary web page 

What do you do when a topic branches off into several other topics?

 

1- PTSD?

Anyway, I forgot to comment on PTSD:  As to PTSD - there are certainly issues there; however, with exposure to 2-butoxyethanol there are things such as

  • central nervous system damage that would have SOME of the same effects ... not flash back dreams, but the 

  • sleeplessness, 

  • suicidal tendencies, 

  • all the time depression as well as 

  • short term memory loss, 

  • difficulty concentrating AND 

  • 'fly off the handle all the time'

  • PLUS it mimics true psychiatric disorder *

2- Are you a Distributor for Mannatech?

I don't have any assoc. with Mannatech or any other company

Dr. Reg is the oncologist there;  I know someone:  Patricia Lynn and her husband that do believe in the products & are distributors for them ... They take the products & use them for the grandchildren, too, preventatively (I would like to start taking them myself & think the grandchildren would benefit as well)

... but I'm not a distributor.

Glad you are looking into it.  If you read all the info on the Scleroderma trial going on now, you will see what they recommend for taking

& there is another web page I shared on Dr. Reg's answer to that question

The pamphlet, SWEET SCIENCE, 8 Key Nutrients to Lifelong Wellness by Mannatech was shared with me 10-28-04 by Rod and Patricia Lynn Taylor  Call 800-563-9061 for your own copy from the company or visit  Their website

"Sugars modify many proteins and fats on cell surfaces and participate in such biological processes as immunity and cell-to-cell communication.

They also play a part in a range of diseases, from viral infections to cancer.

Sugars play critical roles in many cellular functions and in disease. Study of those activities lags behind research into genes and proteins but is beginning to heat up. The discoveries promise to yield a new generation of drug therapies
By Thomas Maeder
Now that the human genome has been deciphered, much of the fanfare surrounding it has transferred to the proteome, the full complement of proteins made from the genetic “blueprints” stored in our cells. Proteins, after all, carry out most of the work in the body, and an understanding of how they behave, the press releases say, should translate into a font of ideas for curing all manner of ills. Yet living cells are more than genes and proteins. Two other major classes of molecules--carbohydrates (simple and complex sugars) and lipids (fats)--play profound roles in the body as well. These substances, too, need to be considered if scientists are to truly understand how the human machine operates and how to correct its maladies.

Sugars in particular perform an astonishing range of jobs. Once regarded mainly as energy-yielding molecules (glucose and glycogen) and as structural elements, they are now known to combine with proteins and fats on cell surfaces and, so situated, to influence cell-to-cell communication, the functioning of the immune system, the ability of various infectious agents to make us sick, and the progression of cancer. They also help to distinguish one cell from another and to direct the trafficking of mobile cells throughout the body, among other tasks. So ubiquitous are these molecules that cells appear to other cells and to the immune system as sugarcoated....continued at Scientific American Digital
