I edited my post and deleted that part. I apologize for the confusion. However, I would also appreciate it if you would also stop bringing up incorrect things about Rich and his protocol since they are also very misleading to the people trying to learn about methylation. Thank you.
I am not bringing up anything incorrect about Rich's prtocol. You are free to actually discuss any specific you wish and I will explain why I have said what I have. However, as it is frozen in time and static, as we learn more and have more experience with things and learn additonal things, anything static will fade into irrelevance. Rich knows mostly the old "traditional beliefs" about b12 and he had a lot to learn about MeCbl and AdoCbl. There are all sorts of legitamate disagreements about any protocol without bringing up all past wrong statements and misunderstandings, Those clarify NOTHING, unless one is writing a history of the eveolving hypothesis. Rich lacked the understanding of b12s and was learning. Howver, he never got a chance to complete that. You see the changes. We were actually close to reaching a compromise way of saying things with the SMP being started for 3 months then with the switch to MeCbl and AdoCbl as the next 3 months and optimize from there. As Rich said if it is going to work well enough a person would know it in three months. The major impediment was how committed he was to genetic ideas over practical results.
Anybody who uses "detox" to describe many different things which need many different responses is never going to get my agreement. That's nonsense just like calling FMS/CFS an "imaginary woman's disease" was nonsense when the docs were doing that. A microtitration of both MeCbl and AdoCbl would be far superior to any amount of HyCbl wich is perhaps 1% effective compared to the active cobalamins. If the idamage were linited to 3 months that won't cause too much damage\. For people with neiuological damage the clock is ticking and 3 months could be the difference between reepairable damage and permanent damage. That is the biggest danger of HyCbl, delaying what is really needed. I'm not talking about the people with a partial methylation block here. I'm talking tabout the people that have already started Subacute Combined degneration which Rich never claimed to be addressing and which the SMP is entirely unable to adrress and completely inappropriate. Work out a reasonable unified program that helps guide people to what is most appropriate for them. I am trying to work out just such a sieve that would identify all the various items formerly known as "detox" and what might work best identifying each of the different pathways. The current "detox" lack of understanding is dangerous.[/quote]
