Hair Analysis

We have been talking about living forever - biological immortality. While many see my views on health and immortality as delusional, there are some who see them as visionary. In our last discussion we talked about what baseball great Ted Williams and his family were doing to stay alive forever. Scince medicne and science are not advanced enough yet to facalitate and allow immortality, many may need to pursue the path that Ted has taken of cryonics and biostasis, with reannimation being the ultimate goal. This science is in it's infantcy and still has many risks. Therefore, for those of us who are still alive, and who hope to remain so ( in reasearching the prospect of immortality it is amazing the number of people I have talked to who don't want to live forever - who are so beaten down by life that as one friend of mine said he was looking forward to the "sublime oblivion") the main thing we can do right now is to take the best care of ourselves possible.
When we fell bad we go to a doctor to find out what is wrong and to get better. Most doctors will order tests to confirm or confuse their diagnoses. When they can't come up with an answer here is an excellent way for you to poceed on your own or with their help. Try hair analysis. Why hair analysis? Well, our environment has become so poluted with metal smelting, plastic production, agricultural chemical runoff, overuse of fossil fuels, etc., etc. that nearly everything we breathe,
eat , drink , wear on our body or come into contact with is either accidently or intentionallly bad for us.
What hair analysis does is to determine whether or not our bodies have been posioned by substances known as heavy metals. Heavy metal build up ( the over accumulation of ) causes numerous medical problems. To test your hair it should not have been dyed, permed or otherwise mistreated for the last couple of months and the testing company will most likely tell you what shampoo to use for a few months prior to testing. Scince most people's hair grows at about a half an inch a month, the hair you cut for the sample is the half inch that is closest to scalp. Hair samples are obtained from several locations on the head and weighed on a small scale provided with the hair test kit. The hair is tested for heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium and fifteen or so others. Usually aluminum is also tested for though it is not a heavy metal it can cause health problems. When the lab returns your results you are told the level of each metal. Metals that are found to be in excessive accumulation need to be removed from the body in order to obtain more optimal health. At present the best process for removing these metals is a process known as chelation. Next post I'll discuss oral, I.V. and rectal chelation. The pros and cons of each and let you decide which metod to choose. Oh, by the way I'd bet good money to plug nickels that if you have your heavy metal test done you will be have too much of at least one of them, and there is not a lab I know of that is pushing any form of chelation therpy. Labs just send results.

Is Ted Dead ?

Let's talk baseball ! Baseball great Ted Williams "died" on July 5th 2002. Or did he? No this is not another one of those "did Elvis die or is he living quietly in seclusion somewhere" scerinos. Ted really did die by legal definiton back in 2002. The questiion here is what is dead?
Centuries back many people were pronounced dead who were merely in comas. How do we know this? Bodies were dug up back then by grave robbers to steal the dead's jewelry and to remove gold fillings from their teeth. Those who found the work of the grave robbers after their exhumations noticed that some of the interior ceilings of the coffins displayed the "dead" person's fingernail clawings in their futile attempt for escape. Soon after when people were buried they were put in a coffin with a string around their hand that went through the coffin and was attached to a bell above the grave. If they awoke, were reborn, came out of their coma, call it what you will, they moved their hand rang the bell and were dug up by a grave yard attendant. Thus the term "He is a real bell ringer" which has now come to mean someone who looks real good but was then meant to describe someone who came back from the grave. I guess when you think about it when someone does come back from the grave they do look pretty good.
The point of all this is that the legal and medical definitions of dead had to be rewritten. Once again we are now on the threshhold of redefining death. The reason for this is cryonics "the study of life preservation at extremely cold tempertures (-300 degrees F and colder)".
When Ted "died" back in 2002, after some family bickering, his head was surgically removed removed from his body in a process called "neuroseparation". Then his head and body were frozen separately in liguid nitrogen at extremely cold tempertures. Most water from the head and body are removed to prevent cellular bursting and the body and it's cells are preserved in a glycine solution. When science is advanced enough to cure the disease that "killed" the person, the body is reattached and reanimated years later to resume a more "normal" existence.
Now that's what I call a real bell ringer. Some even believe that in the not to distant future that we will be reanimating the skeletal remains of our parents, grandparents, and ancestors. I suppose they will be "dead ringers" of their former selves.
David Ettinger, the son of Robert Ettinger and founder of the cryonics movement, has this to say about death, "Death is just the point of current technology when the doctor gives up. It is a legal definition not a medical one".
We are now at the advent of one of the profound discoveries of human existence. Perhaps the most profound discovery since Copernicus replaced the earth with the sun as the center of the universe. If death becomes life then eternal youth will surely become mankind's next quest. In fact we are already heading there. More on that the next time.

Defeat of Death

Biological immortality, i.e. living forever as a real living organism, as opposed to some pie in the sky existense in some netherland fashioned by one of mankinds numerous religions, is an idea, perhaps the most intriguing and thought provoking idea, of our new century. The human mind is so preconditioned to death that many, indeed most, scoff at this concept. Loss of muscle tone ,scagging skin, wrinkels, graying hair, loss of libido, loss of energy - the list goes on- have for ages been thought of as an inevitable part of aging. Yet, the advent of better health and a longer more youthful life is here now for those who are open minded enough to pursue it. It is my hope through this site to help those who are inquisitive enough and brave enough, pursue a healthier and more youthful life. To learn how to achieve these goals and to eventually defeat death itself is the ultimate objective. Stay with me and learn how to become healthier, live longer and to learn what steps you must take to defeat death.
