MAG-pie & MAG-net Alert!
Iron Toxicity Post #57 – The VERY Source of this IRON-IC Crisis that is a Pandemic on this Planet
This past week, I purchased one of the definitive textbooks on Iron Overload Diseases published by Cambridge University – which means it’s VERY stuffy and VERY “de-rigeur!” – by a group of world-renowned Hematologists. (The publication date is 2010 for the ADHD set who worry that’s it’s more than six nano-seconds old… 😉 )
This is a textbook that is 365 pages long, that goes into EXCRUCIATING detail about HOW Iron Overload CAUSES this condition, that syndrome, and every conceivable disorder that you could possibly shake a stick at. It is a veritable “Who’s Who” of Disease!
And on page 39, copy of which is attached below, is a ONE-SENTENCE explanation of HOW THIS IRON OVERLOAD COMES ABOUT (Highlighted in RED). Yes, the CAUSE is actually mentioned at the very LAST sentence on this page, which is on the ONLY section of the book that talks about Ferroxidase function of Ceruloplasmin. I kid you NOT!
365 pages of blah-blah-blah about the IMPACT & DISEASES of Iron Overload…
ONE whole column, and ONE whole sentence on HOW this Iron Overload actually comes about…
Now mind you, imho, this is Allopathetic PROOF for WHY we have a Global CRISIS of Iron Overload on our hands as one of the MOST definitive textbooks on Iron Overload conditions has a PATHETIC and TEPID explanation for what the REAL Physiology and Pathophysiology with how a build-up of Iron is the RESULT of a LACK of Ferroxidase function within the MOST important Anti-Oxidant Enzyme in the human body, i.e. Ceruloplasmin.
Furthermore, this is the ONLY reference in this definitive textbook to Ferroxidase function in this ENTIRE book!…
It is a DAMNING expose for WHY we suffer from raging Iron-induced Oxidative Stress, which is the biochemical & physiological SOURCE of ALL of our woes. (For those that doubt the veracity of this provocative statement, please take a moment to review the 56 Posts on Iron Toxicity that preceded this one…) And for those that are thinking, “but I’m anemic…” – PLEASE be sure to read those 56 Posts!… 😉 You are the ANTI-THESIS of that Iron-ic State…
I thought the “Curious George’s” of this MAG FB community would enjoy knowing what the ORIGIN is of this utterly reprehensible I(ron)gnorance regarding the MOST toxic metal on this Planet… It is a stunning example of the COMPLETE inadequacy and scotoma of the conventional medical system to properly understand what the TRUE metabolic problems & dysfunctions are that are swirling in our bodies.
Hope this information & this Post help to sharpen your understanding of this never-ending issue re Iron Toxicity…
A votre sante!
