Nutritional Value and Safety of Microhydrin®

GRAPH 1: Bar Graph showing pH values of blood (red), urine (yellow), and saliva (white) before (12-25-97) and over the 21 days of Microhydrin supplementation. Gray shaded graphs indicate last date tested (1-19-98).

Graph 2 shows the results of 21 days of reduction/oxidation potential values (redox, rH2 value). The redox value of the blood before supplementation was 24.8 and after three weeks of Microhydrin supplementation was 24.7 (optimum values 21.5-23.5). The redox value for the saliva was 24.9 before supplementation and 24.6 (optimum value 21.5-23.5) after three weeks of supplementation with Microhydrin The redox value of the urine was 21.7 before supplementation and 23.5 (optimal value 22.5-24.5) after Microhydrin supplementation. Although the blood and urine redox values did not alter considerably the urine value moved into the optimal range after Microhydrin supplementation.

The resistivity value for blood was 230 before supplementation and after Microhydrin supplementation 214 (optimal value 190-210) The resistivity value for saliva was 148 before and 203 (optimal value 180-220) after Microhydrin supplementation. The resistivity value for urine before supplementation was 57 and after Micxrohydrin supplementation was 97 (optimal value 30-45). The resistivity of the blood and saliva values moved closer to or into the optimal range respectively with supplementation. Although the urine value changed it did not move into the optimal range over this three week period.

The Zone charts show a combined value of all measures established for the individual. Included are the Zone charts before the supplementation program and after 21 days of Microhydrin supplementation. This is a three-dimensional representational graph of the nine core numbers that make up the readings of pH, rH2, and r-values of the blood, saliva, and urine. The triangles can be seen to represent a combined value. The white triangle represents the optimal values of the individual's terrain as assessed by BTA. The green area could be seen to represent the current assessment of the subject. An ideal reading of the Zone chart would have triangles resting directly in the middle of the screen. The further these values (triangles) are from each other the less healthy the subject. Zones in yellow represent a zone of cellular degeneration. The red zone represents severe cellular degeneration.

Several other parameters and indices were calculated that are derived using the BTA results and the BTA program developed for this purpose by Biological Technologies. The graphics shown in Graphs 6 and 7 are generated using the data from the subjects test results over the three week supplementation period.

The terms used in graphs 6 and 7 (Biological Age, Energy Quantity, Cellular Degeneration Index and Cellular Defense Index) are used for purposes to show indications that represent other calculations using BTA data, but are not meant as diagnostic or medically representative terms. Biological Age, a derived value shown respectively in graphs 6 and 7, went from 73 to 64 indicating a nine year improvement after 21 days of Microhydrin supplementation. The derived value for Energy Quantity went from 1.1 to 1.9 over the three weeks of supplementation. Cellular Defense, a derived value indicating the body's immune capacity, improved 9 points going from 19.1 to 28.1 over the supplementation period. The Cellular Degeneration Index showed a beneficial change from 2.2 to 5.2. The Cellular Defense Index and Cellular Degeneration Index were improved substantially over the supplementation period indicating that the cellular function was improving and not regressing.

The r ponderated value is an indicator of bowel and cellular toxicity and often indicates that the cells are releasing toxins. The lower value may indicate that she is actively in a stage of detoxifying. These values generated are not meant to be used as diagnostic or medical terms but are terms useful to BTA clinicians when evaluating subjects and their health history and present status. Clinicians use BTA tests for evaluating the condition of their subjects and are further trained in the values and parameters defined and what they are meant to indicate. For purposes of this study the BTA tests were used as an indicator as to the safety of Microhydrin. The present subject's BTA values showed indications on numerous parameters that the Biological Terrain was improving.

GRAPH 6: This graph illustrates values before Microhydrin supplementation. These are terms used by BTA professionals and are not meant to be diagnostic.

GRAPH 7: This graph illustrates values after 21 days of Microhydrin supplementation. These terms are used by BTA professionals and are not meant to be diagnostic.

TABLE: This information is generated by the BTA computer program. It prints the values before and after Microhydrin supplementation according to dates and the optimal values for each test performed on the subject.

Summary

To evaluate the Biological Terrain several parameters have been established that ascertain if cells of the body are in an optimal environment or one that inhibits optimal cellular function. Although the concept of Biological Terrain was developed in the 1800's, researchers such as Louis Vincent in the 1950's and others suggest that the life processes in living organisms are dependent on the pH value, the redox value (electronic potential of the pH value) and the resistivity value (R=1/Conductivity) of the fluids surrounding the cells. Historical scientists and those of today have realized that the cellular environment is important in assessing the biological state and functioning of the cells (19). These values may be related to the health, energy status and the state of regeneration or degeneration of the cells of the body.

Biochemical reactions and transport mechanisms across cell surface membranes are limited due to these ion-electronic factors some are better understood now than they were 50 years ago (12,13). These ionic-electronic factors of the biological fluids surrounding the cells (i.e. blood, lymph, etc.) have a profound effect on the transport of nutrients and wastes across cell membranes as well as energy generating mechanisms within the cells (12,19). The ionic-electronic factors of these fluids are determined by the nature of the diet, the amount of water consumed, toxic exposure and the general health of the body. The environment or terrain that supports optimal cell function, reproduction and viability can be a helpful tool for the clinician.
