How we contained 
Infectious Mononucleosis with 
OTC supplements.

The strategy was to make the body inhospitable to the virus, not to kill the virus.  

We made no attempt to treat the disease. In no way is this a treatment or cure for Epstein-Barr virus infections. Viral infections are notoriously difficult to treat when one attempts to kill the virus.  I even preferred he NOT take NSAIDS (i.e. Tylenol) because the fever was the best marker we had to see how he was progressing.

The story:
My son's girlfriend, Karen, was quite ill with mono this spring. She was sick for a month including a hospital stay and a few bouts of 104 degree fevers. Troy was afraid he was going to get sick and asked-no, DEMANDED, I design a protocol to prevent this.  

So, I applied Darwinian medicine, which always gives a totally different perspective on how to handle diseases.  Under Darwinian Medicine the symptoms are recognized as a road map to be followed, not as something to be stopped.  For this exercise I deliberately chose not to read any medical books but simple rely on my road map.  It worked.

As a warning, the reader is going to love this logic or hate it.  There is no middle ground since this is so totally opposite to our current allopathic system of medicine. IF YOU DON'T APPRECIATE IT MOVE ON. I DON'T CARE TO CONVERT YOU AND YOU WILL NOT CONVERT ME BACK TO THAT KIND OF THINKING.

So here goes.  Karen had a high fever and inflammation of the spleen and liver.  The current system was unable to give Karen anymore than supportive care.  In my son Troy, infectious mono was reduced to a mere cold, and only then because he wouldn't take anymore pills.

Applying Darwinian Medicine, the symptoms were the body trying to heal itself.  So, heat and inflammation is the creation of REDNESS, or the red wavelength, to balance an overdose of BLUENESS, or blue wavelength, caused by the offending virus.  Along with that, the spleen and liver are located at the GREEN chakra, so this was also another attempt to heal the spleen and liver to generate the green color wavelength.  This color balancing concept is not a new idea.  It is ancient, expressed from antiquity as chakras.  (More on chakras and how it corresponds to medical physiology)

The classic example that made this so apparent to me was Marie Curie's death by leukemia.  Leukemia is a profound expression of the blue wavelength (white blood cells) and the depression of the red wavelength (red blood cells).  She endured heavy exposure to radioactivity, high red wavelength, throughout her life.  Eventually her body could no longer compensate for this high red wavelength, developing fatal leukemia.

This is further demonstrated by FDA approval for the use of Prussian blue in radiation poisoning.  http://www.fda.gov/cder/drug/infopage/prussian_blue/Q&A.htm#1

This blue is used medicinally to counteract the intense dose of the red wavelength.  The potassium iodide is useful for the same reason.  Pure Iodine (Merck Index) is bluish black with a violet vapor.  The iodine colloidal that was liberally used on wounds is brick-red.  Remembering back to first grade science when iodine is applied to a raw potato it turns blue.  It is the blue wavelength that has the healing effect against radiation.

The Final Analysis 

Mono, an Epstein-Barr virus, was was trying to destroy the red and green components of the body to the degree it could create a perfect nest site for viral replication.  This included the red blood cells and the major organs related to the red blood cells.  These red and green components were impediments to the virus successfully replicating.  So, we flooded his body with them.

Originally, during the incubation period as Mono day approached, we had him on 6 ATP BOOST, 
6 Rhea Heart (not available but 2X the amount of Harmonic Balance would be equivalent), and 2 oyster mushroom capsules for immune boosting.  For general supplementation he took Right Choice, (Bodywise-enhanced multivitamin), and Oxy G (Bodywise- a germanium, chlorophyll and other alkaline-producing factors).  That was the most I could get him to take.  I wanted him on heavy doses of vitamin C and beta carotene.  He became more cooperative at the onset of symptoms. (No surprise here!)

The symptoms started right on schedule.  He was very tired, had a sore throat, a 99.5 fever, nasal congestion and nose bleeds. We decided to see what was going to happen for a day before we made any changes in the regimen.  

Day 2-3.  No change.  We have a warm day in March so he is sent outside to soak up the sun.  We increase his daily dosages to 20 ATP BOOST, 20 Rhea Heart (not available but 2X the amount of Harmonic Balance would be equivalent), and 5 mushrooms.  By the afternoon the fever dropped to 99.0 and remained there. Still sleeping during the day.

Day 4  He is irritable about being sick and agrees to do whatever else he needs to.  Now we address the issues. The changes amounted to increasing supplementation of mainly red wavelength, some green and yellow. Still napping.

We added daily: 

6 capsules of rhea liver extract 
6 Zypan ( Standard Process- pancreas, spleen) 
9 Congaplex (Standard Process-thymus, adrenal, carrot, alfalfa, kidney) 
3 Spleen PMG (Standard Process-spleen) 
3 Thymus PMG-(Standard Process-thymus) 
1 Chezyn-(Standard Process- Iron [red], Zinc, Copper [red and green], liver, beet)

Day 5: Temperature is below normal and he is cleaning his room.  No naps. Runny nose and cough persist. Will not increase any doages; sick of pills.

Day 8. Cough gone.  He continued the regimen for another week on my insistence. Karen is really angry he didn't get sick like she was.

Darwinian Medicine:

Adapted from the patent application �Ratite Extracts as Therapeutic Agents�� 1998 Donna Fezler

Standard medical practices attempt to eradicate the symptoms with drugs and therapies specific for the symptoms.  In Darwinian or evolutionary medicine, symptoms are recognized to be the body attempting to treat itself with components at the site of pain. MT; language: EN">  Muscle proteins in wasting disorders, and collagen proteins in arthritis and connective tissue disorders are examples of the body failing to replace the components it is using to treat itself.  We are erroneously calling these diseases autoimmune disorders: diseases where the body is attacking itself.  This is backwards to the evolutionary principle of survival of the fittest and really has no basis in science other than faulty assumption of scientists.  An innate system of slow suicide would not have stood the rigors of evolution.

However, in our environment, the toxins are so pervasive the body is not succeeding in conquering the offending invader, an inanimate toxin.  By applying Darwinian Medicine, we augment the body�s choice of self-treatment with more of the same from an outside source, in this case, the ratite extract.  The application of this system is very broad, encompassing many typically difficult to treat disease conditions under the standard symptom-response of allopathic medicine.  Rather than attempting to eradicate the symptoms, Darwinian Medicine recognizes the symptoms as a useful clue to designing a treatment based on the body�s choice.

Darwinian Medicine goes one step farther to find the causative agent that would produce that specific set of symptoms, and providing answers to the question:
