Dosage instructions for
Poly-MVA
Take Poly-MVA on an empty stomach,
at least 30 minutes before eating or two hours
after eating
solid food. If the patient has difficulty with
the taste of Poly-MVA, it may be taken with juice
such
as cranberry, grape, prune or vegetable.
Use plastic, glass, or ceramic measuring devices
and spoons, not metal ones, as metal ones may
adversely affect the taste of Poly-MVA.
Take your daily amount
of Poly-MVA in divided doses if possible:
for example, 2 teaspoons, 4 times daily - three
times before meals and once before bed. If you
are
taking 1 tsp. daily or less, it's fine to take
it all at once. If you have unresolvable scheduling
conflicts
that prevent you from dividing your daily dosage,
take it all at once.
As a longevity tonic or for prevention of disease,
the adult dosage is ½ to 1 tsp. per day.
One 8 oz.
bottle will last 7 to 14 weeks.
Adults with early stage diseases:
Loading dose: 8 tsp. daily
in divided dosage - 2 tsp., 4 times daily, for
one week. Then reduce to
4 tsp. daily - 2 tsp., twice daily, until the
desired results are achieved. For maintenance
of remission,
1-2 tsp. daily. Eight bottles are needed for the
first three months.
Adults with late stage
diseases:
8 tsp. daily in divided
dosage - 2 tsp., 4 times daily for at least two
months. Although the label on the
bottle references a "standard" dosage,
physicians and patients alike have reported better
overall
results on a dosage of 8 tsp. a day for at least
two months. After that, consult with your physician,
and/or a qualified licensed alternative medical
practitioner, and an AMARC consultant about the
feasibility of dosage reduction. Ten bottles are
needed for the first two months.
Please Note:
If you are an adult in
remission from a serious disease, and you are
just now beginning to use
Poly-MVA, you are advised to follow the entire
"Early Stage Protocol", starting with
8 tsp.
per day. DO NOT START WITH THE "MAINTENANCE
DOSAGE".
Children
with early stage diseases:
1 tsp. per 30 pounds of body weight until desired
results achieved.
Children with late stage
diseases:
1 tsp. per 20 pounds of body weight for at least
two months before reducing the dosage.
After that, consult the child's physician, and/or
qualified licensed alternative medical practitioner,
and an AMARC consultant about the feasibility
of dosage reduction. |
Recommendations
Poly-MVA and Antioxidants
Leave an interval
of at least 6 hours between taking any but the
most minimal amount of an antioxidant*
and Poly-MVA, to allow enough time for the antioxidant
to leave the body before Poly-MVA is taken.
This guideline applies when taking more than 500
mg Vitamin C orally or intravenously. We recommend
that you take antioxidants early in the day, and
wait six or more hours before taking Poly-MVA.
If you
wish, you may "load up" on antioxidants
at this time. This is strictly an individual choice.
Remember
that Poly-MVA is itself a powerful antioxidant,
which may reduce or eliminate your need for others.
*Note: The
use of Co enzyme Q 10 is an exception to the guideline
concerning the use of antioxidants.
Co Q 10 is synergistic with Poly-MVA, and sometimes
enables Poly-MVA to access areas of the body
where there is little circulation. Some physicians
recommend 400 mg daily in standard form, or 120
mg
daily of the concentrated "Q-Gel" form.
When using intravenous chelation therapy or oral
chelation supplements to remove heavy metals or
arterial plaque from the body, leave an interval
of at least 24 hours between using the chelates
and
Poly-MVA: the chelates may chelate Poly-MVA.
The following may also render Poly-MVA ineffective:
1. Use of tobacco in any form.
2. Exposure to insecticides and herbicides.
3. Use of additional alpha lipoic acid, lipoic
acid or thioctic acid.
4. Use of steroids in moderate to large amounts
will significantly diminish the effectiveness
of Poly-MVA.
Conditions for which
Poly-MVA has been reported to be beneficial:
1. Malignancies of many
kinds.*
2. Certain non malignant diseases and conditions:
Lupus, fibromytosis, psoriasis, chronic fatigue
syndrome, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's.
3. Fatigue or lack of vitality.
4. Loss of appetite or weight.
5. Pain.
6. Maintenance remissions.
7. When radiation is indicated, post-radiation
damage is often diminished with concurrent administration.
8. When radiation or chemotherapy is indicated,
sometimes makes lower doses as effective as higher
ones.
Contraindications:
None. Used
as an adjuvant therapy, concurrently with primary
conventional therapies such as
chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery, no contraindications
are known at this time. Patients prone to
pleural effusion require careful monitoring by
a physician, since fluid accumulation may increase
with the administration of Poly-MVA.
Effects that occasionally happen
and are not a cause for alarm:
1. A cleansing reaction,
also called a "detoxification reaction"
or "healing crisis." This is caused
by
Poly-MVA working too quickly. Reduce dosage until
the symptoms disappear. Symptoms may include
rash, headache, unusual or strong body odors,
diarrhea, fatigue, nausea, or a temporary worsening
of existing conditions. If someone gets a cleansing
reaction, it is almost certain that Poly-MVA is
working for them.
2. A temporary rise in
cancer markers due to a large cancer "die-off".
In the book, An Alternative
Medicine Definitive Guide to Cancer, Dr. Jesse
Stoff, M.D., an alternative medical doctor, is
interviewed
regarding this subject. Dr. Stoff has observed
that cancer markers do not always provide the
best
indication of the specific character or relative
aggressiveness of a cancer. With breast cancer,
for
example, there are 4 different cancer markers,
but it is rare to find a breast cancer that produces
more than 2 or 3 of them. "You can have a
huge tumor sitting there and any one of these
markers
can be well within normal range," Dr. Stoff
says. There is also a less than adequate correlation
between cancer markers and the tumor mass. "You
can have people with advanced metastatic
disease and only moderately elevated levels of
cancer markers, and vice versa," Dr. Stoff
says.
However, consistent correlations between tumor
mass and cancer markers can serve as a rough
approximation of how well the battle is going
for any one individual, he adds.
When the treatment activates
the immune system to respond to the tumor cells,
the cancer markers
will typically start showing a sudden rise or
spike. This is because large amounts of proteins
(tumor antigens, or cancer markers) are released
as the cancer cells begin to die. "The cancer
markers will go through the ceiling at this point,"
Dr. Stoff says. "One needs to be prepared
for this
from a psychological point of view." If blood
tests are done, cancer patients should realize
that the
rise will be transient and that markers will drop
precipitously as the immune system's scavenging
cells, the
macrophages, sweep up the cancer cells' debris.
"The take-home lesson
is that if you look at cancer markers only, you
may get an inaccurate picture
of how the cancer is behaving at that time,"
says Dr. Stoff. "The test should be repeated
later on to
ensure that the original reading is truly a spike,
not an absolute, prolonged rise in the cancer
markers."
Poly-MVA may act as
a paramagnetic contrast agent:
*Attention Brain
Cancer Patients
After several months of
use, or after use at high dosages for a shorter
time, Poly-MVA has sometimes
been known to act as a paramagnetic contrast agent
in some X-ray and MRI scans. The prime concern
is that a shadow caused by Poly-MVA might be mistaken
for a shadow from tumor progression.
In those cases where the patient is doing remarkably
well and the only problematic finding is that
the
MRI or X-ray shows enhancement, the physician
is advised to do additional diagnostic studies.
Poly-MVA, a complex compound, contains a metal
which vibrates when exposed to paramagnetic
radiation, and which can produce a radio-opaque
halo/shadow, that if not carefully evaluated,
leads
to a misreading of the X-ray or MRI. We therefore
recommend that all patients taking Poly-MVA give
their physician this information so that the most
accurate radiological evaluation can be achieved.
A CT scan may be preferable, thus avoiding the
paramagnetic effect of the MRI and the palladium.
Patients and physicians may direct questions to
our resident physician consultant, George Llamas,
MD at 800-649-2970.
Storage & Shelf
Life:
It is not necessary to refrigerate
Poly-MVA, but you may if you wish. Do not expose
the Poly-MVA
bottle to direct sunlight since such exposure
may affect the taste. Exposure to heat is not
a problem.
There is no known end to the shelf life of Poly-MVA.
Protocols,
Dosages, and the Number of Bottles Needed per
Month:
Each 8 oz. bottle contains
48 teaspoons (236 cc) Poly-MVA. Dosages are weight-dependent:
dosage increases as weight increases. For the
treatment of disease, (therapeutic dosages), use
under the supervision of a physician and/or a
qualified licensed alternative medical practitioner.
