BUT, my white blood cell differential got very strange. It was looking like I had a bone marrow problem. Like I had stopped making new WBCs. I was producing almost Mongoloid sized WBCs as well. My ferritin levels never dropped to a worrisome point even when I titrated myself up to 500 grams of IP6 a day. Makes sense because IP6 is, despite all the hype, a very weak iron chelator. Now if you read the words of Bill Sardi (who has a Google alert set so that he'll send me nasty emails within 5 minutes of posting this) of pulp kind of medical books and resveratrol ?fame?, IP6 is a very powerful iron chelator and his formulation of resveratrol reverses aging by chelating you optimally. This is all backed up by a single subject study being done by an ophthalmologist. My ferritin levels never dropped to the point that the IP6 theoretically fought the "effects" of the 100 grams of Vitamin C infusions three times a week. In theory, Vitamin C causes generation of reactive oxidative species in the presence of iron which then go and attack the mitochondria. Cancer cells, accumulate loads of extra iron. IMO, the IP6 and the Vitamin C drips where Waiting for Godot: Something to keep me occupied and away from the oncologist and urologist until the "cure" came along. Of course being a very active participant of PCa forums made it very difficult to keep away from the oncologist because these forums tend to attract the gloom and doomers, those who "know better" because so and so tried this and is now in the hospice. Plus, it's pretty amazing if you don't do TM/TMSP, yagyas, Sudarshan Kriya, think you're Peter Pan and don't megadose on the latest supplements, how old and bitter you become at the over the hill age of 45. These forums are rife with such bitter, angry, frozen minded men, whose mindset is IMO the cause of their malady and suffering.
