In an Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved study conducted at Tustin Longevity Center, thirty men between the ages of 48 to 74 exhibiting conditions of prostatitis, benign prostate hyperplasia, and prostate calcifications were enrolled in a 90-day clinical study. The interim trial examined the effects of a combination treatment of Detoxamin at 750mg given four times per week, Health Genesis vitamin/mineral complex given daily, one daily Natren's Healthy Trinity probiotic oil matrix capsule and tetracycline at 500mg given daily.
The initial 90-day observations revealed statistically significant Quality of Life (QOL) improvement in reducing the symptoms of benign prostate hyperplasia, with overall improvement in urinary conditions such as weak urinary stream, incomplete emptying of the bladder and strain upon urination. Results also showed a reduction of the frequency, intermittency and number of times the participants got up at night to urinate (nocturia). Erectile function was also improved in 27 out of 30 patients.
Toxic heavy metals were laboratory analyzed in packed red blood cells; the metals that showed statistically significant reductions were lead, cadmium and arsenic. Of the heavy metals analyzed in fecal samples, cadmium showed a significant decrease.
Blood chemistry panels were also analyzed in which high density lipids (HDL), the good cholesterol levels increased significantly over pre-treatment levels. The cholesterol to HDL ratios, low density lipids (LDL, bad cholesterol) and plaque 2 (LPPLA2), a marker that detects cardiovascular plaque significantly decreased in the majority of participants.
The researchers conducting this study are encouraged with the response to the treatment protocol for improving symptomology, removal of major toxic heavy metals and improving important cardiovascular markers with the men who are affected with debilitating prostate conditions. This study has been extended for an additional 90 days with some modifications of the protocol.
"With over seven years of medical chelation experience, I observed other toxic heavy metals such as aluminum, nickel, tungsten, uranium and beryllium and others being either decreased or excreted to large extents in my patients utilizing Detoxamin. This is extremely important for all people of all ages because of the abundance of continual toxic environmental exposure we all encounter each and every day. I am so confident of need for the removal of these metals with Detoxamin that I have chosen to devote my entire practice to instate the use of these suppositories in place of IV chelation with almost all my present and future patients. Detoxamin's gentle, safe and effective ability to remove these oxidatively damaging metals from our tissues is one of the single, most important things we can do to improve our health. I also incorporate and highly recommend the addition of Repairacell or Vital Cellular Nutrition with NT Factor to repair, rebuild and revitalized cells and tissues of the body in combination with Detoxamin for not only the majority of medical conditions but also as a preventive means to protect us against damaging toxins, improvement in health and increased quality of life as we age."
