Well, you say that is not many people. The figures above are those who died from it. No one knows they had it before they died. It takes about 8-12 years for symptoms to get bad enough to die from it. The question remains how many people have Mad Cow and like a time bomb are waiting for it to go off. When thousands and millions of people get infected what testing is there for people to know if they have it? What do we do with contagious people who have it the first 1-9 years before death? The cow solution is mass death by slaughter. Do we put the people in a confined area and wait for the death to be long and slow. Has anyone thought of the ethics behind the soon to be epidemic?

My healing can cure beginning and intermediate cases of Mad Cow not advance cases. I can remotely test and tell you if you have it, how many years ago you got it, how many sessions for 100% cure. Ignorance is no longer bliss……………

How does Mad Cow develop?

Prions below change shape

The Mysterious Powers of Folding Prions

Researchers don’t know exactly why different forms of the prion protein can affect susceptibility and the course of disease, but they think it has something to do with the way the prion protein folds and how the variations affect this process.

The normal form of the protein has many helical or spiral-shaped stretches, while the abnormal form has many flat, sheet-like structures. The mutations and polymorphisms associated with the disease are thought to affect the shape of the protein, which may in turn affect how it clumps up and causes damage to the brain.

“Different forms of disease can have different symptoms, according to where the protein initially accumulates,” says Guisueppe Legname at the University of California at San Francisco . “But ultimately it’s the accumulation of prions in the brain that kills.”

Mad Cow/CJD - Staggering List

Of Products Made From Cattle

By Jeff Rense

|In light of the potentially catastrophic spread of Mad Cow/nvCJD prions worldwide (UN WHO statement) throughout|

|the food chain and environment, and my continuing call for completely new, mandatory universal medical/dental |

|sterilization protocols - including the absolute cessation of the reuse of all invasive instruments and |

|equipment - this incredible list will come as quite a surprise to many. |

|  |

|I've broken most of the items down into Medical, Food, and General/Industrial categories to facilitate a grasp |

|of the enormity of the use of animal products in our lives and the potential vectors of Mad Cow/CJD prions. |

|This categorization is not necessarily complete; there are some consumables which are not listed in FOOD, for |

|example, but the general point of the list is simple: just because one doesn't eat meat or dairy, doesn't mean |

|one is necessarily safe from potential exposure to Mad Cow prions and contaminated/infected products from |

|cattle. |

|  |

|With the recent discovery in the UK that tonsils of BSE/TSE infected individuals contain the Mad Cow/CJD killer|

|prions, one wonders if other body tissues might be similar repositories. One also ponders the ongoing and |

|bizarre issue of mass cattle and other animal mutilations and wonders whether this is some kind of monitoring |

|process to track the spread of environmental decay and toxicity...and prion diseases. |

|  |

|From anti-aging creams to surgical sutures to chocolate milkshakes and marshmallows...we have injected animal |

|products from cattle, sheep, and hogs into nearly every corner of our lives. Behold... |

How many BSE burgers did the kids eat?

What is the extent of the current beef recall? I’ve read that 143 million pounds of beef corresponds to two hamburger patties for each man, woman and child in America. [pic]That’s the meat of questionable safety produced by the Westland Meat Packing operation in Chino, California since February 1st, 2006, most of it already consumed, and we’re reminded, there’s no need to panic. Why did the USDA set the date at Feb 1st, if only because some of that product is still on the shelves? Since what actual date is Westland thought to have been putting “downed” cows into the food supply?

The Humane Society tried to get the attention of California law enforcement in January, based on a video they’d obtained late last year. We could presume that the Hallmark Slaughterhouse was already coercing downed cattle into its lines which is what prompted the undercover activist to bring a camera in the first place. How long were the scapegoated workers, with their forklifts, chains and water hoses circumventing USDA regulations? How many BSE burgers would that make, per each of us?

The sum total ground beef patties through Jack-in-the-Box, In-N-Out, Regal, King Meats, and the Federal School Lunch Program would be hard to calculate. The task remains to find out who were the 150 school districts receiving the 27 million pounds of BSE contaminated meat.

[pic]Since not everyone is eating from school cafeterias, we are left to calculate how many times more BSE burgers or BSE pepper steaks each of the exposed kids would have had to consume among themselves.

No need for alarm, but let’s clarify what the AP is reporting: Downed cattle do not “pose a higher risk of contamination from … mad cow disease because they typically wallow in feces and their immune systems are often weak.” Downed cattle are kept out of our food system because they are symptomatic of having Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), commonly called mad-cow disease.

In Europe, livestock which cannot walk are forbidden from all food systems, including the rendering of carcasses to feed other animals, to prevent BSE from reaching the human food chain. To this end, Europeans test 100% of their herd animals, unlike the US which tests less than 2%, and whose industry uses terms like “downed cows” and “downers” and “non-ambulatory” in lieu of “mad” or BSE. This is why several international markets will not import US beef. Ingestion of meat with BSE leads to the fatal brain-wasting Jakob-Creutzfeldt Disease in humans.

Bush Administration Fights Against Meatpacker Who Wants to Test for Mad Cow Disease (6:58 am)

Rick Perlstein at Common Sense passes along this report:

WASHINGTON - The Bush administration said Tuesday it will fight to keep meatpackers from testing all their animals for mad cow disease.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture tests less than 1 percent of slaughtered cows for the disease, which can be fatal to humans who eat tainted beef. But Arkansas City-based Creekstone Farms Premium Beef wants to test all of its cows.

Larger meat companies feared that move because, if Creekstone tested its meat and advertised it as safe, they might have to perform the expensive test, too.

A federal judge ruled in March that such tests must be allowed. The ruling was to take effect Friday, but the Agriculture Department said Tuesday it would appeal — effectively delaying the testing until the court challenge plays out.

Mad cow disease is linked to more than 150 human deaths worldwide, mostly in Britain.

There have been three cases of mad cow disease identified in cattle in the U.S. The first, in December 2003 in Washington state, was in a cow that had been imported from Canada. The second, in 2005, was in a Texas-born cow. The third was confirmed last year in an Alabama cow.

The Agriculture Department argued that widespread testing could lead to a false positive that would harm the meat industry. U.S. District Judge James Robertson noted that Creekstone sought to use the same test the government relies on and said the government didn’t have the authority to restrict it.

Questions that deserve answers

Can one get Mad Cow other then eating beef?

YES!

1. Yes kissing is a 20% while unprotected sex is 15% chance

2. Infected Blood transfusions 15% chance

3. Infected cosmetic products from bovine ingredients 25%

4. Infected Dairy products 45%

5. Infected beef products 100%

6. Infected bovine products in insulin 55%

7. Infected vaccines 25%

8. Infected persons open sores that get on you 30%

How long is Mad Cow Dormant in humans?

Dormant means while in you it does no harm, then there is no dormancy in humans once infected. When does it become noticed? Hardly never! Symptoms are many and gradual. Brain, nerves and immune are affected without any symptoms that people will notice. Once reasonableness has left the thinking one is in intermitted state right before advance symptoms. People are tested after death like cows are. A few can have brain scans and see changes once one is in intermitted stage. People loss proper judgment and behavior is affected. After 4-9+ years of being exposed to Mad Cow one becomes unreasonable with violent outbursts, weak muscle, even stroke and leaking of cerebrospinal fluid leading to death.

How many people have died of stroke and it was Mad Cow?

We will never know. When we hear of statistics remember that testing people is only with select few and only after they die.

Our Ongoing Concern

Blood from cattle still can be mixed into cattle feed. That's a concern because blood can carry the infectious BSE agent. Chicken coop floor waste, such as feces and feathers, can still be fed to cattle. That's a concern because chicken feed can legally contain bovine meat and bone meal. Waste food from restaurants still can be fed to cattle. That's a concern because of the potential for, say, leftover steak to be incorporated into cattle feed.

Then we get this:

In January 2004, Tommy Thompson, then U.S. health and human services secretary, announced that the Food and Drug Administration intended to close those loopholes. It never happened.

Yikes. So cows are still eating cows. But at least we're testing to make sure that cows led to slaughter aren't infected with mad cow, right? Well, not really:

Today, about 40,000 -- or 0.1 percent -- of the 37 million cows slaughtered each year are tested, a number that consumer groups say is too low, especially when compared to testing programs in other countries.

It gets worse. The fraction of cows that do get tested aren't chosen at random; beef packers volunteer animals for testing. The FDA vigorously defends its program; devastatingly, even the USDA thinks it's a pile of, well, B.S. Here's the Press Enterprise again:

A 2006 USDA Inspector General report noted that because the testing program was voluntary and not random, it could not be determined whether the government had tested a representative sample of the highest-risk cattle, such as non-ambulatory cattle and those showing signs of a central nervous disorder.

Good News from Reuters News!

Blood test may screen for mad cow disease

[pic]WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Researchers at the University of Calgary have developed a blood test that can diagnose fatal chronic wasting disease in elk, and believe it may provide a cheap way to screen cattle for mad cow disease.

The test looks for signs of damaged cells in the blood, they reported in the journal Nucleic Acids Research. It may also offer a way to diagnose people with a related disease called Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, or CJD, they said on Thursday.

"We can now take a blood sample from a live animal and look at the DNA patterns in the blood and predict six months ahead of time whether an animal is infected with chronic wasting disease," Christoph Sensen of the University of Calgary said in a telephone interview.

The secret is not finding the prions that cause mad cow disease and other so-called transmissible spongiform encephalopathies or TSEs, Sensen said. Instead they looked for circulating nucleic acids -- little bits of DNA that get spat out when distressed cells die.

The found three distinct patterns in these circulating pieces of DNA that appeared three months before the elk showed symptoms. Each pattern correlated with genetic mutations known to put the animals at higher risk of contracting the disease.

TSEs such as chronic wasting disease, mad cow disease, scrapie and CJD destroy the brain and can happen spontaneously, but are also passed from animal to animal by eating infected tissue.

Chronic wasting disease is also found in herds of wild elk and deer in the U.S. and Canadian west.

SAVING EXPORTS

But every case in a cow shuts down a country's exports for a time, so cattle breeders and governments are keen for a test. Usually cases cannot be diagnosed for certain until the brain or certain other organs are examined.

Sensen's team, including an expert from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, looked at vesicles -- little pieces of DNA that end up in the blood when a cell dies. "We are looking at the host response to the infection," he said.

"Any disease puts stress on the body. We are looking at what does the host do to rectify the attack."

Chronic wasting disease is always fatal, like BSE and CJD, but the cells of the animal struggle and Sensen said this changes the DNA in a way that can be seen in the test.

The test itself is a simple polymerase chain reaction or PCR test that amplifies the DNA so it can be sequenced.

Sensen suggests pooling the blood of several animals -- perhaps in batches of 20 or so -- and testing it all at once. If evidence of BSE is found, then each of the 20 animals in that batch could be individually tested.

His team tested 19 elk and two BSE-infected cattle from Germany and could identify the infected animals every time.

He said it will take four years to be able to replicate the findings in cattle.

"There is currently no reliable way to tell if an animal may have a prion infection before it becomes obviously sick," Kevin Keough from the Alberta Prion Research Institute said in a statement. "If there were a reliable way to know, it would be of great benefit to producers, processors and wildlife managers."

Eating Cloned Animals

What other Say………..

The FDA has approved the sale of food products from cloned animals and their offspring, saying that it will not require labels. However, the American public does not support animal cloning, and the technology is riddled with problems that cause animal suffering. Our government must act to address the public’s concerns and keep these products off of grocery store shelves.

Cloning causes severe animal suffering.

• Despite years of research, over 95% of cloning attempts fail, even with extensive veterinary intervention.

• Birth defects, physiological impairments, illness, and premature death continue to be the norm, not the exception, with cloning.

• Seemingly healthy clones have unexpectedly developed problems.

Problems occur with cloning far more often than with any other method of reproduction.

• Large Offspring Syndrome, a typically fatal condition associated with a host of abnormalities, occurs in over 50% of cow clones, but in fewer than 6% of conventionally bred animals.

• Hydrops, another typically fatal condition in which the animal swells with fluid, occurs in 28% of cow clones, but very rarely otherwise.

• A high rate of late-term pregnancy loss, pregnancy complications, painful labor, and surgical intervention is unique to clone pregnancies.

Consumers are opposed to animal cloning.

• 67% of Americans disapprove of cloning animals for food.

• Disapproval increases to 88% when respondents learn that animal suffering is involved.

• The majority of Americans think it is morally wrong to clone animals, and 63% would not buy cloned food even if it were labeled as “safe.”

• Numerous dairies, organic foods producers, and retailers have declared that they do not want to use products from cloned animals or their offspring.

• The dairy industry has said that there is no consumer benefit in cloning.

The public is worried about the moral and ethical implications of animal cloning

• Cloning affects animal welfare and promotes intensive farming practices and the commodification of animals.

• Many feel that cloning is “not natural,” or is “playing God.”

• Animal cloning technology can be used to clone humans or produce transgenic animals.

Americans want their government to consider their ethical concerns about cloning.

• Nearly 90% of adults think the government needs to ensure that the ethical issues related to animal cloning are publicly discussed before allowing cloned animals to be sold as food.

• Governments around the world are debating the ethics of cloning animals for food.

• The expert European Group on Ethics concluded that there is no ethical justification to clone animals.

|Cannibal Cows! by Danny Vierra |

|When I was very young, one of my favorite snacks was graham crackers. I remember taking a cracker and breaking it into four pieces, stacking them together, and |

|dipping the golden goodies into my favorite beverage—an ice-cold glass of cow’s milk. Like little sponges they would soak up the milk until they became just a bit |

|soggy, at which point I would savor them in my mouth. I would do this time and time again, until I had eaten nearly the whole box. But it wasn’t until the late |

|1980s that I learned graham crackers were not the only thing that could become sponge-like by their contact with cow’s milk—so could my brain! |

|By now, everyone has read something about bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), or mad cow’s disease. With the recent mad cow epidemic in Britain, nearly every |

|newspaper and television news program have reported something on the subject. BSE is the newest of the animal diseases that is believed to be transmitted to human |

|beings through the digestive pathway. In other words, according to British scientists, people may contract a form of this deadly disease, which makes its victims go|

|mad before it kills them, by eating burgers, steaks, or drinking a good old glass of milk. Symptoms of BSE include aggressive and disoriented behavior (mad cow), |

|because it affects the central nervous system of the animal. Even more frightening is that BSE is not caused by a virus or bacteria, but a prion—a protein molecule |

|that has baffled science because it is devoid of RNA or DNA, can survive even when heated to 360 degrees Celsius for one hour, and produces no specific antibodies |

|in an infected animal. In fact, there are no tests to detect it! |

|The disease, which bores holes into the cow’s brain and nervous tissue, leads to slow, lethal degeneration (rotting) of the brain, giving it a sponge-like |

|appearance. Thus, the name spongiform (spongy) encephalopathy (brain disease), and coined "mad cow’s disease," is appropriately used. The overwhelming concern about|

|BSE began as a result of Britain’s former health adviser, Sir Bernard Tomlinson, when he reported on a radio interview his fears of a link between BSE (mad cow’s |

|disease) and CJD (Creutzfeldt Jakob Disease), its human equivalent. But what really motivated Britain’s government into taking action was the death of ten new |

|victims with the average age of 27 (some yet in their teens) that had died recently from a new strain of CJD, as reported by Lancet (medical journal) in April, |

|1996. These deaths were "‘the latest in a series of CJD deaths that are so different from the textbook description of the disease—the victims were young, the brain |

|tissue looked like Alzheimer’s—that they suggest a link to mad cow’s disease,’ says Dr. Paul Brown of the U.S. National Institutes of Health." (Newsweek, April 8, |

|1996). "Human victims become depressed, confused, unsteady, demented, and completely helpless before invariably dying—within six to thirteen months after first |

|showing symptoms," reported The Sacramento Bee on March 22, 1996. |

|But Britain, which now has 28,000 adults becoming vegetarians, is not the only country that is affected by BSE. Cases have been discovered in Ireland, Switzerland, |

|France, Portugal, and Canada, to name a few others. Our government states that the disease has never been found in the United States, but other researchers here are|

|questioning these findings and feel that more testing needs to be done. Meanwhile, the incidents of BSE are down in Britain, because Britain’s government banned the|

|feeding of sheep and cows to cows in 1988 (although 70 cattle a week are still being diagnosed with the disease and 10,000 cows born after the ban have since |

|contracted BSE). Since the disease originated in sheep as scrapie, and since cheaper feeds in Britain include ground up sheep and cows in the feed, the banning of |

|rendered livestock (much of which is diseased) for feed has been enforced in Britain. Britain, thus, has learned the hard way that, in order to eliminate diseases |

|like BSE and CJD from spreading in their country, they must discontinue the unnatural practice of feeding herbivore animals, like cows, other sheep and cows. They |

|must stop turning their cows into carnivores, because cow cannibalism has obviously led to the fatal epidemic now spreading in Britain, which may have already |

|infected 500,000 to a million Britons (if not more) with CJD. Only time will tell the impact BSE will have on the people of Britain, since the incubation period of |

|the disease (the time in takes for symptoms to manifest themselves) is between 2 to 10 years. |

|"But", some reader may say, "you are writing about the unfortunate experience of Britain. Certainly you do not mean to imply that the British misfortunes are ever |

|to be repeated in the U.S.A., do you?" As to that possibility, let us turn to what an American expert has to say about what is going on in our country. "The feeding|

|of ruminant protein (sheep and cows) to cows continues at a rate of millions of pounds [14% of all rendered cattle] per day," says the author of Mad Cows and |

|Milkgate, Dr. Virgil Hulse. (Milkgate, p.41). He also explains in his book, which I urge everyone to read as soon as possible, that the animals ground up and used |

|as feed for our cows are 4-D animals—dead, dying, diseased, and disabled. Many of these sick animals are called downers because they have "downer cow syndrome," |

|meaning they are too sick to even walk or stand, but are still allowed by the USDA to be sold for food. There are over 20,000 downers a year just in Wisconsin |

|alone. How can these poor creatures, which were designed by God to live on grass and grain, stand a chance of ever being disease-free when they are fed a special |

|protein feed made of 4-D animals? And, if that weren’t bad enough, cows have been routinely fed cow's skins (laden with E-coli and feces), dead sheep, chicken |

|manure, and feathers from the chicken and turkey we eat—labeled Dairy Supplement or Protected Natural Protein. In fact, chicken feces is sold to farmers for $45.00 |

|a ton and the cows eat it, along with grease and garbage from restaurants, which are referred to as nutritional supplements. Friends, we need to stop and think this|

|matter through. If scrapie, originally a sheep disease that spread to cattle in Britain as bovine spongiform encephalopathy, has now spread to humans as |

|Cruetzfeldt-Jakob disease, should it not concern us greatly that scrapie infected sheep are in all but 11 states in the U.S., and that farmers have been feeding |

|this bypass protein to cows? It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure this out! Take, for instance, the 1985 outbreak of transmittal mink encephalopathy (TME, |

|also called “mad mink” disease) discovered at a ranch in Wisconsin. The minks’ diet consisted of 95% "downer cows" and 5% horse meat. Of the 7,300 adult mink at the|

|ranch in Wisconsin, approximately 60% developed clinical signs of TME, and all of these died. This is just one more case that proves the deadly prion can cross the |

|animal species barrier—from sheep to cow, from cow to mink, mice, goats, pigs, monkeys, lions, tigers, cats, antelopes, ostrich—and the list goes on. The United |

|States government would like us to believe that spongiform encephalopathy cannot spread to humans, but in view of what has happened thus far, I think it would be |

|downright stupid to believe this monstrous unlikelihood. According to the USDA, there are 7,500 sheep right now in the U.S. that have scrapie. In fact, the "USDA |

|discontinued the compulsory scrapie eradication program because it would be perceived by the public that it [spongiform encephalopathy] was a threat to health." |

|(Milkgate, p. 36). America is simply trying to sit on a time bomb that is ready to explode! |

|More recently, Howard Straus in his article, "The Approaching Era of BSE,#34; in the July/August, 1996, issue of The Gerson Healing Newsletter, writes: "There is |

|the possibility, even the likelihood of an outbreak of BSE and its associated human form, CJD occurring in the United States. It may already have arrived here, and |

|been missed in the background noise of the enormous human tragedy of our epidemic of Alzheimer’s disease. It is quite possible that many cases of CJD have been |

|misdiagnosed here as Alzheimer’s, disguising the onset of the epidemic by not recognizing it for what it is, and giving us a false sense of security. In fact, there|

|is good evidence that BSE has been in the United States since the mid-’70s." Funny, isn’t it, what human beings will do for greed! |

|Then there is the latest statement made by the Clinton Administration to help prevent mad cow disease in America that was published in the Wall Street Journal on |

|January 2, 1997: "The Clinton Administration, fearing a replay of Britain’s mad cow disease epidemic in the U.S., has decided to sharply curtail the recycling of |

|waste animal protein into livestock feed." I recently spoke to Dr. Virgil Hulse and Howard Lyman, political activist for the Eating with Consciousness Campaign in |

|Washington, D.C, and asked their thoughts on the recent statement made by the Clinton Administration. Both men said that they were "very encouraged, yet concerned |

|that this is not a solution to the problem—only a good step in the right direction." Unfortunately, according to the article, the Clinton Administration has said |

|that they will "ban some livestock-feed items," but not all of them. "The FDA rule would classify as unsafe all forms of protein derived from cattle, sheep, goats, |

|deer, elk, and mink, all of which are known to have spongiform diseases akin to BSE. The ban would also cover protein from what are called ‘four D’ animals...The |

|only exception would be for bovine blood, waste milk, and gelatin, for which no pathway of BSE infection is known." Friends, how can any responsible person make a |

|statement like this when the blood of these animals will continue to be processed and used as "blood meal" and will still be incorporated into the animal’s feed? If|

|the life of the animal is in its blood, are also the prions? Can you now understand why Dr. Hulse and Howard Lyman said “a step in the right direction, but not a |

|solution”? Furthermore, the article stated: "While the proposal wouldn’t apply to chicken feed, hog rations, or pet food, many independent renderers and meat |

|packers fear the stigma could hurt their sales of ruminant protein for these uses as well....In such an event, lost sales and disposal could hit 1.6 billion |

|according to one industry estimate." (Ibid). How any American can be more concerned with lost sales than lost lives is beyond me! |

|If we don’t stop feeding cows and sheep, or their blood, to cows or other animals, we could end up with the same epidemic as that of Britain. Interestingly enough, |

|Britain is attempting to incinerate 4.7 million cows at 10 incinerator sites that can handle only about a 1,000 cattle a week. This process of rendering could take |

|years to accomplish. And then there is another problem. According to The Times from Britain, dated June 10, 1996, BSE-infected material could be contaminating land |

|and water supplies for years to come: "Dr. Alan Colchester, a consultant neurologist at Guy’s Hospital in London, has been caring for the only cluster group of |

|people suffering from CJD...told BBC Radio 4’s World This Weekend that there was no guarantee that the substances known as prions...were being consistently |

|destroyed by the rendering process. He called for the whole rendering industry to be reassessed....Canterbury Mills, one of the...rendering plants, has permission |

|to spread the effluent on land. The others all understand they can pump it into the sewage system. Anne Graham, who coordinates local opposition to the plant from |

|her home in Petham, said that only last Friday offal [inedible animal remains] fell from one of the lorries [trucks] on its way to the plant. She said blood and |

|carcasses could be seen in the open and the smell and the draining of the effluent onto land was unnecessary.” Americans will share the same concern as Anne Graham |

|and Dr. Colchester, since the Clinton Administration’s ban to recycle waste animal protein into animal feed “would force millions of tons of inedible by-products |

|into landfills each year." (Ibid.). |

|Bovine spongiform encephalopathy is not the only infectious disease plaguing the cattle and, ultimately, human beings. There are two retroviruses, bovine |

|immunodeficiency virus and bovine leukemia virus, which are not only increasing at alarming rates, but also would not be affected by the proposed ban by the Clinton|

|Administration. Drs. John McDougall and Michael Klapper reported in the 1980s that 20 percent of our dairy cows in America had bovine leukemia—a deadly form of |

|cancer of the bone marrow. But according to Dr. Virgil Hulse, dairy scientist, researcher, and cancer epidemiologist, who also was a milk and dairy inspector for 13|

|years in the State of California, that figure has long since been surpassed. "50 to 80 percent of the dairy herds have BLV, and 50 percent have BIV, or cow AIDS," |

|cautions Dr. Hulse. Sheep, goats, and chimpanzees fed cow’s milk become infected and develop leukemia, and BLV viruses have infected human cells in vitro. In fact, |

|Jeremy Rifkin, in his book—Beyond Beef—on page 143, states that "bovine leukemia antibodies have been found in human leukemia patients." Dr. Klapper adds: "The |

|infected cow pours these cancer-inducing viruses out in her milk, which is then pooled with all the milk in the tanker truck on the way to the dairy. These cancer- |

|inducing viruses are resistant to killing by pasteurization, and have been recovered from supermarket milk supplies. Is it a coincidence that the highest rates of |

|leukemia are found in children ages 3 through 13, who consume the most milk and dairy products? It may also come as no surprise that the occupational group with the|

|highest rates of leukemia is dairy farmers?" (Pregnancy, Children, and the Vegan Diet, p.42). |

|Dr. Hulse boldly states his position concerning these retroviruses and their relation to human cancer in Mad Cows and Milkgate on pages 152 and 153. He states: "The|

|plausibility that BLV may be a risk factor in leukemia in children and Hodgkin’s disease and lymphomas in young adults is extremely high....Why are more and more |

|women getting breast cancer in the first place? I feel that it is related to an epidemic of bovine leukemia virus in cows and the presence of BLV even being |

|produced in the breast of the cow." |

|"Even before the discovery of BLV there were virus-like particles that have been identified by electron microscopy in the milk. Now there is startling evidence that|

|BLV is present in the mammary organ of the cow, more commonly called the udder of the cow. In infected cows these antigens are expressed in the udder of the cow |

|while the cow is being milked....The discovery that the glandular cells in the cow...have cancerous viruses where the milk is being produced is astounding. This |

|nearly unimaginable cause can only serve to intensify our fears concerning the transaction of cancer between cows and humans." Dr. Hulse further states, "It is my |

|opinion that when you drink milk that contains these lymphocytes, you are setting yourself at risk for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease, multiple myeloma, and |

|multiple sclerosis or other cancers...such as prostate, breast, and colon cancer, even if the milk is pasteurized." (Ibid., pp. 158, 159). |

|On the other hand, the second of the two retroviruses in cows that we need to be concerned with is bovine AIDS. You probably know that AIDS can be transmitted from |

|human to human by blood—such as in transfusions. But how many of us know that "when a cow is being milked with a milking machine, frequently blood vessels break in |

|the udder of the cow? There may be a fissure in one of the teats that allows the bleeding," says Dr. Hulse. "When milk was in 10-gallon milk cans, it could be |

|condemned as being bloody like a strawberry milkshake....Now bloody milk is mixed with other milk in large holding tanks and it no longer looks bloody." (Ibid., pp.|

|178, 192). |

|On top of all this, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1985 approved a synthetic growth hormone for use in boosting milk production in cows, claiming |

|the product is safe for human beings and animals. But a study released by the Cancer Coalition and reported in January of 1996 concludes that consuming milk from |

|cows that have been injected with recombinant growth hormone (rBGH) may increase the risk of breast and colon cancer. " ‘This [research] will be the death knell of |

|BGH in Europe,’ says Samuel Epstein, MD, professor of environmental toxicology at the University of Illinois- Chicago and author of the study in the winter issue of|

|the peer-reviewed International Journal of Health Services. ‘There is also a strong likelihood that women’s breast cancer groups and grass-roots consumer groups |

|will be alarmed.’ |

|"Using the government’s own data, as well as research conducted by BGH-manufacturers Monsanto, Dow Chemical, and Upjohn, the study argues that BGH may put humans at|

|risk for breast, colon and gastrointestinal cancers. The reason? Levels of the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), which has been linked to cancer and tumor |

|growth, are higher than normal in BGH-treated milk. Despite the FDA’s response that IGF-1 passes harmlessly through the human digestive system, Epstein cites |

|evidence that the human intestinal wall can absorb proteins that have a larger molecular weight than IGF-1, suggesting that IGF-1 can readily pass through the gut. |

|He notes that children’s and infants’ more permeable gut walls may absorb IGF-1 more easily, and warns that pasteurization increases IGF-1 concentrations in milk |

|....Eptsein doesn’t think the agency will reconsider its approval. ‘My guess is the FDA’s interest in BGH is so intertwined [with the manufacturers of BGH] nothing |

|will change,’ he says." (Vegetarian Times, March, 1996). |

|More than 185,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and some 44,000 will die. In addition to this startling news, the animals being produced for|

|our food today at our poorly inspected slaughterhouses are loaded with deadly bacteria which are communicable or transmittable to human beings. Very hardy strains |

|of salmonella, listeria, campylobacter, and E-coli, to name a few, are bacteria (sometimes referred to as "superbugs" today) that threaten the health of human |

|beings every day. According to American Medical News, June 10, 1996, in an article entitled, "Food-borne Illnesses a Growing Threat to Public Health," it is |

|asserted that between 6.5 million and 81 million Americans experience food-borne illnesses each year and about 9,000 die as a result. Since no federally inspected |

|meat-processing plant is required to check for these microbes (President Clinton promises this will be changed—we will have to wait and see), much of the food sold |

|for consumption is loaded with these deadly bacteria. In fact, from 1980 to 1992, deaths due to infectious diseases has risen 58% in this country. You would think |

|that since 50% of the antibiotics produced in America are used for farm animals, people would be safe from bacterial infections spread by these animals. "Farm |

|animals receive 30 times more antibiotics (mostly penicillins and tetracyclines) than people do. The drugs treat and prevent infections. But the main reason farmers|

|like them is that they also make cows, hogs, and chickens grow faster from each pound of feed. Resistant strains (super-germs) emerge just as they do in people |

|taking antibiotics—and remain in the animal’s flesh even after they wind up in the meat case. |

|“....The threat could be even greater to those who down a milkshake with their burger. Milk is allowed to contain a certain concentration of 80 different |

|antibiotics—all used on dairy cows to prevent udder infections. With every glassful [of milk], people swallow a minute amount of several antibiotics." (Newsweek, |

|March 28, 1994, p.48). According to Congress’s General Accounting Office, individual States in the U.S.A. test for only four of the federally regulated antibiotics.|

|And then there are the farmers who self-administer illegal drugs (which can cause anything from anemia to cancer in persons) to sick cows because they cannot afford|

|to call a veterinarian every time an animal gets sick. |

|If the facts which I have already presented in this article aren’t enough to stop someone from drinking another glass of milk, there is yet another reason why I |

|steer people away from using dairy products. It is because they are the leading cause of food allergy in America. Dr. Michael Klapper, in his book—Pregnancy, |

|Children, and the Vegan Diet—in the chapter appropriately entitled, "Be Wary of Dairy," page 41, writes: "Standard whole milk is over 90% water, with 3% butterfat, |

|and 2% protein. It is made for turning a 45-pound calf into a 300-pound cow in a year...Its content of sodium, fat, and phosphorus is much higher than that of human|

|breast milk, while its potassium is lower. The protein in cow’s milk is mostly casein, which forms hard curds in the stomach of infants. Conversely, the predominant|

|protein in mother’s milk is lactalbumin, which is far more easily digestible by babies. These contents are as they should be. Cows are faster growing, much larger |

|than people, and genetically distant from humans. Nature has designed the milk of each animal species specifically to meet the nutritional needs for the young of |

|that species. People are the only animals that drink of the milk of the mother of another species....With each swallow of a milkshake, or mouthful of cheese or ice |

|cream, bovine protein is smeared upon the child’s throat membranes, tonsils, adenoids, and other gateways into the immune system. Fragments of milk protein can |

|cross the surface membranes, and when the protein of another animal is introduced into one’s immune system, an allergic/immune response is created in many places of|

|the body. |

|"A common reaction to such an assault by a foreign protein, in our immune system is an outpouring of mucus from the nasal and throat membranes, upon which the |

|invading substance is applied. The resulting mucus flow can create the chronic runny noses, persistent sore throats, hoarseness, bronchitis, and recurrent ear |

|infections that plague so many children (and their parents). |

|"Other body membranes, such as those lining the lungs and joints, [which] can react to dairy protein and become swollen and inflamed, contributing to the conditions|

|of asthma and rheumatoid arthritis, have been shown to improve dramatically when dairy products are removed entirely from the diet." |

|In fact, Dr. John McDougall, in his book—The McDougall Plan—pages 50 and 51, states that: "They [dairy products] contain more than twenty-five different proteins |

|that may induce allergic reactions in humans. These reactions include the following: |

|Gastrointestinal—cancer sores, vomiting, colic, stomach cramps,....colitis, malabsorption, loss of appetite, growth retardation, diarrhea, constipation. |

|Respiratory—nasal stuffiness, runny nose, otitis media (inner ear infection), sinusitis, asthma. |

|Skin—rashes, atopic dermatitis, eczema, seborrhea, hives. |

|Behavioral—irritability, restlessness, hyperactivity, headache, lethargy, fatigue,....muscle pain, mental depression, enuresis (bed wetting). |

|Blood—abnormal blood clotting, iron deficiency anemia (dairy products are the cause of at least 50 percent of childhood anemia and an unknown percentage of anemia |

|found in adults; this condition results from the bleeding of the small intestine caused by dairy proteins and is not responsive to iron therapy until milk and other|

|dairy foods are eliminated)." |

|The Unthinkable: |

|Alzheimers Caused by Meat? |

|Spongiform (or brain-wasting) diseases are generally divided into two classes: those which arise from eating infected tissue from animals (including humans), and |

|those which are thought to be "spontaneous" or "of unknown origin." |

|The type which come from eating or handling infected tissue include Kuru, a disease found in a South Pacific cannibal population traced to handling brain material |

|of their deceased relatives, bovine spongiform encelphalopathy (BSE, or mad cow disease), which comes from eating infected cow meat, and transmissible mink |

|encephalopathy (TME), which arises from mink being fed "downer" cows in the U.S. n humans, eating meat from a diseased cow causes a brain-wasting disease called New|

|Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, or nvCJD. A closely related brain-wasting disease called Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, or sCJD, is thought to kill about |

|300 people a year in the U.S. The full numbers of CJD victims aren't actually known because CJD is not a reportable disease like syphilis. The U.S. Center for |

|Disease Control (CDC) only surveys "death certificate" CJD, meaning if an end-stage CJD victim catches pneumonia and dies, this doesn't get tracked as a CJD case by|

|the CDC, but is counted as a "pneumonia" death. |

|In addition, CJD victims have been known to be misdiagnosed as Alzheimer's patients, unless family members insist on an autopsy and examination of brain tissues. |

|(In fact, a recent study by CJD researchers at Yale University found 14% of patients thought to have died of Alzheimer's actually died of CJD; a larger study from |

|the University of Pennsylvania found a misdiagnosis rate of 5%, and estimated there may be 200,000 cases of CJD in the U.S. each year which are misdiagnosed as |

|Alzheimer's.) (See related New Science article - opens new browser.) |

One Big Solution!

I, Eve Anderson, got off beef 4 years ago and 3 years ago have gone 100% organic and have since that time written a wonderful book, “ The Perfected Diet, how to eat Organic Gourmet on $8 a Day” by Eve Anderson order from . The book has menus, shopping list and 120 recipes plus many reasons to eat organic. We have radiated foods, nano-tech foods, genetic modified foods, and cloned foods ALL without labels.

Are we dropping dead like flies? NO! Could we end the majority of the human race by ignoring this issue further? YES! Remember there are many ways to get Mad Cow other then eating beef so we all are at risk. I got it and healed myself after just using soap made from bovine products.

The ONLY Solution!

[pic]Sticky Antibodies Block Prion Disease

Antibodies that stick to a brain prion protein called PrP could be the key to treating prion diseases like variant CJD and preventing people accidentally exposed to prions from going on to develop the fatal brain disease. Using a precise visualisation technique, called X-ray crystallography, scientists have identified an antibody that has the best ability to bind to PrP in the brain. Experiments using cells in the laboratory and in mice have suggested it could stop prion infection in its tracks.

The finding is the result of a collaboration between molecular biologists at the Medical Research Council Prion Unit, University College London, and biophysicists at the University of Liverpool. The results are published in the journal PNAS, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Prion infection depends on conversion of naturally occurring PrP into a corrupted form called PrPSc that has a different shape. This change in shape is critical for disease progression and happens when PrP comes into contact with infectious prions. PrPSc builds up causing the death of brain cells and other symptoms of prion disease.

Past research has shown that the conversion process can be interrupted by immunisation with antibodies designed to stick to PrP. This study reveals that the ability of an antibody to reduce prion infection is dependent on how well it binds to normal PrP. Whether or not the antibody sticks to PrPSc too is irrelevant. A monoclonal (designed specifically to match one target) antibody called ICSM18 has been found to be the most effective.

Professor John Collinge, Director of the MRC Prion Unit, explained the background: ''Naturally occurring prion protein is an established therapeutic target for prion disease: studies at the MRC Prion Unit have demonstrated that when we stop brain cells of infected mice making PrP, onset of disease is prevented and early damage to the brain reverses. In this research we have prevented normal PrP from getting drawn into this process by binding antibodies onto them. We have also shown that the monoclonal antibody ICSM18 has the highest therapeutic potential in cell and mouse based studies. Whether or not it will have the same impact in people who have vCJD or other prion diseases is yet to be established, but we are trying to make human versions of these antibodies for future trials in people.''

By visualising the interaction between antibody and prion protein at a molecular level using X-ray crystallography, the researchers at Liverpool's Molecular Biophysics group were able to see exactly which parts of the two proteins stick together.

Interestingly, they found that the point where the two prion proteins come together is exactly where a key building block of the protein resides at position 129. It has been known for some years, from earlier work by MRC Prion Unit scientists, that the amino acid at position 129 has a radical effect on an individual's susceptibility to prion disease. There are two common forms of prion protein present in the population with either the amino acid methionine (M) or valine (V) at position 129.

Around a third of the UK population have two M copies of the prion gene, this means they are "MM". Around 10% of people are "VV" and the remainder have the commonest "MV" genetic type. This genetic variation is one of the strongest causes of genetic susceptibility known in any human disease and every patient who has developed vCJD has been MM. Those who have the MV genotype are partially protected against developing these diseases. The crystallographic structure, that allowed the research team to look inside the molecule at atomic details, explains why this single building block is so important in determining a person's risk of developing prion disease, as the M and V proteins interact less readily than two M or two V amino acids.

Commenting on the significance of the study findings, lead partner for structural studies Professor Samar Hasnain, Max Perutz Professor of Molecular Biophysics at the University of Liverpool said:

''The key to this research has been our ability to visualise the exact crystal structure of the prion protein when it is bound to the most effective monoclonal antibody. The results announced today are a great example of research crossing disciplines to share the skills of molecular biologists and biophysicists to solve problems associated with human disease.''

Professor Hasnain acknowledged the contribution made by staff at the Daresbury Synchrotron X-ray source where crystallographic data for the difficult structure were obtained.

Original research paper: Crystal structure of human prion protein bound to a therapeutic antibody is published online in PNAS, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

This research collaboration was between scientists at the Medical Research Council Prion Unit, University College London, and a team from the Molecular Biophysics Group at the Science and Technology Facilities Council Daresbury Laboratory, which is now based in the School of Biological Sciences at the University of Liverpool .

The Molecular Biophysics Group, formerly at STFC Daresbury Laboratory, joined the University of Liverpool on 1st April 2008. Its research interests are centred on biomolecules associated with health, energy and the environment. The main programs include proteins involved in neurodegenerative diseases, tuberculosis, drug metabolism, and the key enzymes involved in the terrestrial nitrogen cycle. The group has pioneered multiple-techniques approach for studying metalloproteins and continues to be engaged in developing new approaches using advanced X-ray sources including the next generation light sources.
