Thank you PT. Blood is an important thing to learn about.
There are crystalline properties of this that can be
changed somehow to improve the behaviour in the
body. Most if not all health problems are resulting
from increased blood viscosity.

Leopold Dintenfass has interesting diagrams in his book
Dintenfass: "Rheology of Blood in Diagnostic and Preventive Medicine: An introduction to clinical haemorheology" /Zusammenhang rheologischer Phänomene mit kardiovaskularen und bösartigen Erkrankungen.. Veränderungen der Blutviskosität, Abhängigkeit von Blutgruppe.. zahlreiche Grafiken und Ergebnistabellen../ <http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/0407000380/matthiasweiss-21>

May be someone is interested to read this.
Very interesting graphics.

    I read about that Dr. Joel Wallach knew about this:
    http://www.thewallachfiles.com/wallach.htm

    Copper deficiency - a cause of aneurysms?

    Wallach should be given credit for drawing attention to the
    important role of copper deficiency in the pathogenesis of
    aneurysms. Wallach has not said that all aneurysms are caused by a
    copper deficiency. He only claims that aneurysms are most
    frequently caused by a copper deficiency, which has been shown in
    studies of many animal species (pigs, guinea pigs, rabbits,
    cattle, chicks, turkeys, etc.)[19,20]. Copper is needed for
    elastin synthesis, specifically for the oxidative deamination of
    lysine. Diminished deamination of this amino acid causes less
    lysine to be converted to desmosine, the cross-linking group of
    elastin[21,22]. This results in fewer cross-linkages in this
    protein, which, in return, results in less elasticity of the
    aorta. Copper deficiency in humans was considered rare but is now
    becoming a concern primarily in pregnancy. In a recent study with
    20 pregnant women on self-selected diets, positive balance was
    observed  only if a copper supplement was consumed[23]. Copper
    deficiency need not be caused solely by low dietary copper
    intakes; copper deficiency may be induced by dietary components,
    notably fructose and ascorbic acid; some also consider excessive
    zinc as a possible risk factor.

My dad died of an aneurysm in his 70's after flying to Europe. We thought his blood wasn't circulating properly from sitting for
    3 days straight on two flights and then an all day car ride.
    Otherwise he did yoga and rode an exercise bike when he was home.

        My Dad had an aneurism.  They waited until he was in his 80s
        before it got large enough for them to do the surgery.  It
        was all downhill from there.  I have often asked why they
        don't do the surgery when the person is younger and has more
        reserves to heal from it.  It may be a question they want to
        ask the VA.

            I have a family member (64yr) that has been diagnosed
            with a heart aneurism.  It is fairly large but the VA
            won't do anything until it gets larger.  I wanted
            to ask if anyone is familiar with this problem and what
            natural approaches might help this condition.  I don't
            know what they can do for this condition.
            My cousin died of an aneurism of the spleen when he was
            42.  I don't know if this runs in families.
