I have been highly and painfully informed about Dr. Joel Wallach's research
into Cystic Fibrosis in Humans and other specimens like monkeys. This man as
far as I am concerned proved without any doubt that CF was never genetic or
anything other than deficiency of the trace mineral selenium. Either selenium
is lacking in the mother of the CF patient in questions or the mother is
chronically malabsorbing whatever amount she is getting either by way of mild
food
allergies or some other of the many things that can produce an inability to
absorb nutrients especially minerals or make vitamins like A from beta
carotene or certain B vitamins from brown rice. I am firmly convinced that
this is
a cause. Wallach was put in for a Nobel but that was later taken back. The
nomination I believe. He was actually fired from his job for making the
discovery shortly after his wife died. Sad story for a great intellect, but I
think
people will eventually find out that this is the cause of cystic Fibrosis.
Not genes, not anything else.
