(OMNS Feb 3, 2015) Higher vitamin D blood levels may reduce the risk of many types of disease including autoimmune diseases, cancers, cardiovascular disease, dementia, diabetes mellitus and falls and fractures.

Research into the health effects associated with vitamin D continued to be strong in 2014. The number of publications with vitamin D in the title or abstract listed at pubmed.gov increased from 3,119 in 2011 to 3,919 in 2014. Seven vitamin D researchers (listed after this report) worked together to pick the 20 papers in 2014 that made the most contribution to understanding the health effects of vitamin D in 2014.

Papers are not in priority order, but instead grouped by type of study. For the purpose of this article "vitamin D" in the blood is a measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D or 25(OH)D.

A new study published in Lancet reveals that an experimental vaccine manufactured by Merck using a genetically modified adenovirus actually increased the risk of contracting HIV infection in recipients.

Titled, "Recombinant adenovirus type 5 HIV gag/pol/nef vaccine in South Africa: unblinded, long-term follow-up of the phase 2b HVTN 503/Phambili study ," researchers randomly assigned a total of 801 HIV-1 uninfected, sexually active adults aged 18—35 years from five sites in South Africa to receive either the vaccine (400) or a placebo (401). 216 (27%) received only one injection, 529 (66%) received only two injections, and 56 (7%) received three injections.

The human organism expresses retroviruses.

They are beneficial particles needed for immune defense, growth, and tissue repair.

Since retroviruses were observed in the first AIDS patients, it has been postulated - and it has since become firmly established dogma - that retroviruses "cause" AIDS. Anti-retroviral drugs are the treatment of choice for those who have tested positive to the protein which is a signature for retroviruses.

Of course killing the retrovirus also deprives us of the repair and defense functions they perform. And the drugs' side effects are often deadly for AIDS patients.

Perhaps to re-think our approach in this would be a good idea?

Do White Blood Cells use Retroviruses for Cell fusions?

by Cal Crilly

Alveolar macrophages (white blood cells) produce the Env protein of a human endogenous retrovirus, HERV-E 4-1, in a subgroup of interstitial lung diseases.

Ok I'll try and explain where the research is going and why retroviruses are also likely to appear in white blood cells or macrophages in response to real infections of bacteria and fungi (the retroviruses being functional and already in the macrophage/WBC DNA.)

The white blood cell monocytes or baby white blood cells join together into what they call 'giant cell multinucleated cells', this is in response to large infections, lots of dead cell debris, foreign bodies lodged in the body, anything that needs to be removed etc.
So baby monocyte cells look like they join together into what I call "Giant death star white blood cells" or macrophages made of many immature white blood cell monocytes bound together with retroviruses creating cell fusions.
TB and malaria are prime cases where giant cells are seen as a response to remove quite big bugs.

"Macrophages undergo fusion with other macrophages to form the hallmark multinucleated giant cells of chronic inflammation. However, neither the existence of distinct morphological types of giant cells, the signaling pathways that induce their formation, the molecular mechanism(s) of macrophage fusion, nor the significance of macrophage multinucleation at chronic inflammatory sites are well understood. Our efforts have been focused on these unknowns, particularly as they relate to the foreign body-type giant cells that form on implanted biomaterials and biomedical devices"

The CDC has quickly removed a page from their website, which is now cached here , admitting that more than 98 million Americans received one or more doses of polio vaccine within an 8-year span from 1955-1963 when a proportion of the vaccine was contaminated with a cancer causing polyomavirus called SV40. It has been estimated that 10-30 million Americans could have received an SV40 contaminated dose of the vaccine.

SV40 is an abbreviation for Simian vacuolating virus 40 or Simian virus 40, a polyomavirus that is found in both monkeys and humans. Like other polyomaviruses, SV40 is a DNA virus that has been found to cause tumors and cancer.

I want to straighten out the thinking of many people who look at germs as the primary vehicle for reducing the global population. These are the people who continue to say, against all evidence, that the “pandemics” of the last few decades stemmed from deadly bio-engineered germs launched to kill massive numbers of people.

First and foremost, the “pandemics” were duds. West Nile, SARS, bird flu, swine flu. Even overblown estimates of swine flu deaths, worldwide, eventually settled in at about 20,000.

By comparison, according to the same organization that pegged the swine flu death total, the World Health Organization (WHO), annual deaths from ordinary non-pandemic seasonal flu range from 300,000 to 500,000.

Odd that swine flu is called a pandemic, while ordinary flu is ignored. Odd? Absurd.

The more we research HIV, the less we seem to know about it.

After close to 30 years of research and billions spent, we have no cure, we have no vaccine, no proper prevention. We don't even have a clue about the mechanism HIV supposedly uses to cause degradation of the immune system.

Cal Crilly has gone down the rabbit hole again to put together some of that research. Apparently the 'virus' is found in situations that are part of normal human biology, of our defenses connected with heart disease and perhaps even cancer. Here are Cal's notes, in case you would like to follow this matter of HIV down to its - so far - illogical conclusion.

Caution: It's all speculative, although based on real research from the mainstream of medicine...

Cal says:

This may make some sense ... my brain notes, all speculation

I think I've gone down the rabbit hole far enough now

This is all just speculation but all HIV is just speculation, tuck it away for the brain to process along with all the other thousands and thousands of arguments about what HIV is and how can something so small cause so many deaths etc.
I'm just writing it down.
Regardless I think it points to the fact that if you eat well and avoid toxic things then all these things they measure will go away.
Many people have their negative test results from the doctor to prove it.
My 70 year old HIV+ friend said this about my email on 'what HIV could do' below.

There are serious problems with the idea of testing for a retrovirus called HIV.

But here is a central point that Cal Crilly brings out in this article: If that retrovirus, or rather the protein fractions we associate with antibodies to that virus, are present indistinctly in healthy and sick people, why are we testing at all?

Cashing in on our Sex and Retroviruses

by Cal Crilly

What is a HIV antibody test?

Does anyone know what the HIV antigens mean?

Here are the HIV numbers, do you think they are specific?

They were picked out of a hat in 1984.

"The major antibody specificities detected in HIV-1 WB analysis include gp160, gp120, p65, p55, gp41, p40, p31, and p24. To be reported as positive, the WB assay requires reactivity against the gp41 and gp120/160 bands encoded by the env (gp160, envelope glycoprotein) gene or against either one of these env bands plus the p24 band encoded by gag [Pr55(Gag)]."
Interpretation of HIV Serologic Testing Results

So p24 antigens or 'HIV core proteins' are found in cell transport, yes a piece of 'retrovirus' appears when moving or trafficking things around the body.

The HIV antibody test sees these and the result claims you have AIDS, it is literally a lottery.

How does one play the Polio Game?

One ignores that in 1949 there was a simple and cheap cure for polio if anyone happened to become ill.

One ignores that polio was actually one of the least serious of infectious diseases and of those who did catch it, only 1% were left paralyzed.

According to Dr. Dennis H. Geffen, O.B.E.. M.D.. D.P.H., of every 100 people who become infected with the virus, 90 per cent, remain symptomless, 9 show some slight sign of disease, such as sore throat or stiffness of the neck, whilst only 1 develops definite paralysis. He is reported in Public Health (March 1955) to have told the Metropolitan Branch, Society of Medical Officers of Health that:

“We are apt to forget that poliomyelitis is the least serious of all infectious diseases with the exception of that one complication or extension of the disease which destroys motor cells in the brain and spinal cord and causes paralysis. Apart from this it appears to be a mild infection lasting a few days, the symptoms of which are probably less serious than a cold in the head, and from which recovery is complete and immunity lasting. If we could be sure that an individual contracting poliomyelitis would not become paralysed then there might be much to be said for spreading the disease in order that a community might develop natural immunity.”

• One ignores that polio was disappearing on its own before the introduction of the vaccine.

• One ignores what actually happened when the vaccine was introduced.

The overwhelming evidence of the curative powers of marijuana and cannabinoids leave little doubt that the pharmaceutical industry is behind marijuana prohibition laws. The amount of research now validating the truly remarkable nature of this healing plant is simply enormous. According to new findings published in the journal PLoS ONE, researchers have now have now discovered that marijuana-like chemicals trigger receptors on human immune cells that can directly inhibit a type of human immuno-deficiency virus (HIV) found in late-stage AIDS.

The U.S. Patent 6630507 was specifically initiated when researchers found that cannabinoids had specific antioxidant properties making them useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and HIV dementia.
