COUMADIN IS POISONING THE ELDERLY

There are easy wholesome ways to thin the blood, get rid of aglutinization, or blood corpuscles that pile up in arteries. WORMWOOD is one. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemisia_vulgaris

Gingko Biloba is another excellent blood thinner. Angelica root, anise, arnica flower, asafoetida, bogbean, boldo, Bromelain - Herbs with Anti-platelet properties. capsicum, celery, chamomile, clove - danshen, fenugreek,
feverfew, then there's fish oils and garlic - It has been noted that when essential garlic oil was mixed with blood samples from healthy individuals, cells were less likely to agglutinate or cluster. But there are still more: ginger - Traditionally, ginger (Zingiber officinale) has been taken to curb motion sickness and arthritis. Today, it has been
reported to reduce blood clotting. Ginkgo - Ginkgo leaf has been shown to decrease platelet aggregation. It is thought that the ginkgo constituent, ginkgolide B, displaces platelet-activating factor from its binding sites, decreasing blood coagulation (6048).  horse chestnut, horseradish, licorice,  meadowsweet - Herbs that may contain salicylates: onion - . prickly ash, quassia, red clover,  turmeric - Herbs with Anti-platelet properties.
vitamin E - At appropriate doses, vitamin E has been shown to have virtually the same pharmacological properties as Coumadin (crystalline warfarin sodium - a prescription anticoagulant). This means that appropriately high doses of Vitamin E may be substituted for Coumadin. Vitamin E may be considered safer than warfarin, the generic name of Coumadin. Increase the dose of Vitamin E over a period of weeks. Most people start with 200 IU daily, and eventually get to between 1,200 and 2,400 IU daily. Do it gradually, and here's a way to tell how it is working - Go in to see your doctor regularly, as you always do, and continue to have him check your protime with a blood test called the PT-INR (Pro Time - International Normalized Ratio), as he always does. If you get the protime numbers he wants, he may not care how you got them and they can be  mainteaned safely. The more Vitamin E you take, the stronger the Coumadin's effect. You'll probably get to the point where your protime is too long, and your doctor may have to reduce the dosage of Coumadin."  Herbs with Anti-platelet properties. Panax ginseng, papain, passionflower, poplar - Herbs that may contain salicylates: wild carrot, wild lettuce,  willow bark which is much the same as aspirin  in effect.

While doctors hand out Coumadin to our elderly citizens like candy,
apparently because they have no idea how to get someone's sticky blood
to flow normally, patient's livers were not briefed on the strategy - an
oversight that is likely to injure and speed the onset of age-associated
disease. A new article in the prestigious American Journal of Clinical
Nutrition reveals just how vital vitamin K function is to your health.

The Coumadin vs. vitamin K issue is one pitting the mental midgets of
Western medicine against the innate wisdom of the human body.

There are 16 known vitamin K dependent proteins. The researchers used
knockout mice (mice lacking one or another of these proteins) to determine
which vitamin K proteins were most important to survival.

They found that the 5 vitamin K proteins relating to clotting were the
most important, as knocking them out caused death to the mice while still in
the embryonic phase of development.

Their research showed that the liver regulates the distribution of
vitamin K to any of the 16 proteins, and does so on a basis of priority,
giving clotting function top priority.

When Coumadin is taken it creates a vitamin K deficiency and the liver
responds by channeling available vitamin K to clotting protein function, at
the expense of other vitamin K dependent proteins.

The net result is that other functions in the body that require
vitamin K are left without enough to function properly. This causes bone
loss, arterial calcification, and increased cancer risk. Vitamin K proteins
are also an integral part of the overall antioxidant network.

This new research is backed by other studies that support the adverse
long term use of Coumadin. A study published in 2006, which of course has
been ignored, showed that Coumadin use longer than 1 year increased the risk
of bone fracture by 25%.

It has been very clear for 5 years that the lack of vitamin K due to
Coumadin forces calcium to harden arteries, information that has been
confirmed in patients taking Coumadin.

In the most recent study referenced above the scientists concluded
that "Coumadin patients may not receive sufficient vitamin K for optimal
function of vitamin K dependent proteins that are important to maintain
long-term health." Therefore, long-term Coumadin use is not worth the
"benefit" for just about anyone.

Short-Term Coumadin Toxicity

A December 2007 study in the Annals of Internal Medicine shows that
Coumadin is the top drug landing elderly Americans in the emergency room,
accounting for 17.3% of all adverse drug injuries. The drug is commonly
given to elderly individuals with atrial fibrillation and according to
carefully crafted "studies" may reduce their risk of stroke a paltry few
percentage points.

Coumadin is a cash cow for the prescribing physician, as it keeps
patients coming back to the office to have their clotting times tested to
make sure their artificially-produced clotting time is in a range deemed
desirable by the doctor. Most elderly individuals with atrial fibrillation
are in poor health in general, making this a difficult patient population
fraught with the risks inherent in multiple drug use.

Excessive bleeding is the primary short-term side effect of Coumadin.
It is not surprising that you can buy Coumadin in the rat poison department
at Home Depot. A high dose is very effective at making animals bleed to
death. There is a fine line between a Home Depot dose and what doctors
prescribe. This means that if you are taking Coumadin and rupture a blood
vessel in your brain (say from high blood pressure) your body may not be
able to clot to save your life - as was the case with former Israeli Prime
Minister Ariel Sharon. Hemorrhage-related strokes have quadrupled in the
past decade, consistent with the rise in expanded Coumadin use. The
Coumadin/hemorrhage risk goes up 45 fold if the person is 80 or older. Also,
if an elderly person on Coumadin gets in a car accident and starts bleeding
they may have great trouble stopping - especially if the bleeding is
internal.

Most discussions of drug benefits revolve around statistically
concocted benefits of the drug, often in hand-picked patient populations, as
is the case with Coumadin stroke benefit studies. The studies are funded by
drug companies, and if they don't pan out or the statistics can't be
manipulated in some way to look good then they are thrown in the trash and
never published. The benefits of drugs are never explained in terms of how
the drug changes the body into a healthier state and solves the source of a
problem - because drugs seldom ever do this. Drugs are about symptom and
number management, and trying to titrate the poisons so they are not too
toxic for something else that isn't supposed to be damaged (a near
impossible task).

In fact, the "wisdom" behind the common use of a drug is often not
accurate. Another new study shows that Coumadin is just as likely to cause
an increase in unstable plaque and actually increase the risk for stroke!

The researchers found out that mice with sticky blood were more likely
to form larger plaques, but the plaques were more stable and their
circulatory system actually expanded to accommodate the problem. When these
mice were given anti-coagulants then the plaques became smaller and highly
unstable, increasing the risk for stroke. The researchers say their animal
results confirm other human studies and are highly reflective of what takes
place in the human circulatory system.

Doctors will blame any stoke happening to a person on Coumadin on
their underlying health condition. This study says that Coumadin could
readily increase the risk of stroke.

Patients at Risk, But DOCS don't care! Big Profits for Doctors and Big Pharma

The FDA is useless is helping individuals understand the extreme risks
of this drug or in making drug companies perform follow-up safety testing
that prove safety. Drug companies have no interest in such studies, as they
would generally prove that their drugs shouldn't be used in any general
way - drastically reducing sales.

Doctors need to get their heads out of the sand. Much of Coumadin
prescribing is "cover-your-rear-end" medicine - giving it out because if a
person should have a stroke and they weren't prescribed Coumadin then the
doctor is in a situation of legal liability (which is utter nonsense and
should not be the case). Coumadin also causes regular repeat office visits
to check clotting times via a blood draw, which is a nice cash flow for the
doctor as the office visit requires little or no intelligence or time.

We have a medical profession that thinks if they see an
unnaturally-produced clotting time on paper they have somehow reduced the
risk of a clot-related stroke. Such a conclusion is wishful thinking with a
large case of denial. It points out that the medical profession has little
or no idea how to make platelets healthier so they don't stick together
inappropriately, something that is easy to do with dietary supplements, good
stress management, a proper diet, and a healthy lifestyle.

At least 30,000 of their patients per year wind up in the emergency
room with bleeding-related problems. Even worse, at least that number ends
up with a Coumadin-produced hemorrhage stroke. And for those that survive
those odds, we now see that the long-term risks of Coumadin are extremely
detrimental to health. The use of Coumadin in general practice is an example
of why the American population is rapidly losing confidence in Western
medicine.

In the current health care debate it is generally agreed that we need
to reduce the cost of health care so that more people can be covered with
truly needed care. The issue of the inept practice of medicine, based on
widely over-prescribing expensive and dangerous medications, is a driving
force at the source of the problem of runaway health care costs. Doctor
ineptitude is being given a free pass in the current debate so as not to
have doctor groups torpedo proposed changes.

As long as the flagrant abuse of health by doctors, based on various
Big Pharma con games, drug scams, and profit-driven procedures is allowed to
continue, there is no chance of controlling health care costs in any
meaningful way. A brainwashed population that thinks statins should be in
the water supply (along with fluoride) is a rather dangerous place for any
freedom-loving Americans that remain.

Then, I REC'D an E-MAIL from reader: Dear Anita, Re:
COUMADIN IS POISONING THE ELDERLY

I read:   http //www masterjules net/bloodthinnersbad htm

In the article's bottom graph (before the url links), you mention Statins, so you
may wish to add/update. I've know this for some time --
since the 2nd week of taking what I thought to be a 1/2 dose (my M.D.
LIED to me and wrote it for twice what I told him I'd take/try!). Anyway, in
addition to the below, Statins are HUGE CoQ10 leechers (the highest density of which
are in one's heart and liver (obvously, 2 very primary organs)!! I've been
doing A LOT of supplements for 15/+ yrs and I've NO doubt, were it not for that: 1)
I'd NOT still be here, and 2) due to the above, I'd have been diagnosed w/ some
vile crap like Lou Gehrig's disease, ie. A.L.S. (which may, in fact, also be from Lyme disease, which
'they' WON'T give *Long-Term* antibiotics to treat!).

ANOTHER IDEA:
     L-Glutamine helps protect the liver from the ravages
     of chemotherapy toxicity.

     Even under normal conditions, L-Glutamine is beneficial
     f/the liver since it cleanses the fatty waste products.i.e.
     cholesterol.

     Once liver damage is advanced, glutamine cannot help
     since the liver can no longer metabolize it properly.

     People who use glutamine tend to have a healthier live
     and intestines, thus - better digestion and absorption of nutrients.
     So if you're getting coumidin, another thing is use these two as supplements. Sincerely a reader.
