Dear friends,
For those of you who actually read my articles, I thank you, because I know my message is slowly getting out there. So let me pull back the curtain a bit more on the mind of Dr. Sciarrino.
From the beginning of my articles, I may have mentioned that I am a Maxillofacial Surgeon. This means, for one thing, I’m the guy you see in the hospital after a horrific car accident and your face is smashed to bits. When you look up from the gurney, you will see a guy or girl just like me. I have been there and done that. Interestingly, few people know what our specialty is.
I also may have told you, that was my day job. Primarily what I am in my inner core is a conceptualist. We all live our lives and die based on concepts. Matter of fact, each generation appears to have their own set of concepts. History appears to be the great equalizer, as to which concepts are good or bad. They should teach more history in school, that would help.
Our medical system is also based on concepts. Treating disease is based on concepts first, driven by science second, established medical practice third, and hospitals and pharmaceutical companies fourth. Unfortunately, today the tail wags the dog. Hospital, insurance, and pharmaceutical corporations rule the roost. Medical care has become an albatross around the necks of the American people. I will say no more, I may have already said too much.
If we look at the top three diseases and their medical concepts, we find significant problems. Primarily because we have not moved the needle very much on the mortality levels, despite all the sophisticated treatment protocols, science and medicines, and hospitals. There are a lot of well meaning people working very hard. Unfortunately, the concepts are not valid. Let me describe some better concepts.
Cancer
Cancer, although complex, is not primarily a genetic disease as we have been told, but rather, a metabolic disease. With the exception of getting people to stop smoking, it is still a major disease. If the original concept was correct we would have seen a major shift in mortality already, it’s been more than half a century with little effect.
Diabetes type 2
Diabetes Type 2 is a purely a metabolic disease, – too much substrate taxing the system defined by very high A1C levels. Up until just recently, most doctors treated Diabetes 2 like just like Diabetes 1. Increasing insulin sensitivity of cell membranes to accept too much substrate lowers blood glucose, but causes mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic disease, and fermentation within the cell, ultimately causing cancer.
Diabetes type 1
Diabetes 1, has always been very interesting to me, because the patient has no insulin. Knowing that we are all dying of hyperinsulinemia and metabolic disease, I would think having no or low insulin might be helpful, or at least more controllable, but Type 1 Diabetics are like canaries in the coal mine.
The question is why do Diabetics Type 1 and 2, die first. The medical establishment will tell you the partially correct answer is high blood sugar. No one can tell you the exact mechanism. I will tell you now.
The blood sugar glycates the red blood cell (indicated by your HBA1C). Why does that matter? The hemoglobin is blocked from delivering the oxygen. Your pulse oximeter will show normal O2 saturation, but the O2 is not getting to the cell. These patients are slowly suffocating. They are dying from suffocation.
I do applaud the first significant advancement since penicillin almost 100 years later, through the discovery of GLP-1’s, decreasing substrate. Thereby decreasing metabolic disease and all cause mortality.Type 1 Diabetics are a bit harder to control, the HBA1C is higher, therefore decreasing hemoglobins function, decreasing cellular respiration, ultimately causing cell death.
Heart Disease
Please don’t flip to the end, I still have to talk about the #1 killer.
We know that too much of that sugary syrup in the blood is the cause, but what is the actual mechanism that causes hardening of the blood vessels? There are a lot of ideas out there, so let me give you what I believe is the real answer.
Being we are just weak human beings and not gods, we must take our sustenance by absorption. Digestion is a tricky process, from our mouth all the way down to the end is fraught with the potentiality of bacterial invasion. Our inner body which we consider a sanctuary of cleanliness is not as clean as we think. The size and shape of particles in our blood determines their position in the lumen of the blood vessel.
Flat particles like platelets adhere to the sides of vessel walls and coat the endothelium. The round hemoglobin goes through the center of the lumen so it can drop off the very needed cellular O2. When bacteria get into the blood they tend to be pushed like the platelets to the side. The bacteria are looking for sanctuary and find it nestling through the platelets and lie between the platelets and endothelium. These are in effect rudimentary cysts. The more sugars in the bloodstream, the more substrate they have to grow. Not even antibiotics can stop them; they are protected, they are cysts. They grow and grow until the platelets can no longer hold them. The toxins of the bacteria damage the endothelial lining. The platelets have been pushed away, leaving a wound on the vessel wall. The immune system creates inflammation to kill the bacteria and the healing process begins with the insertion of fat and calcium. That’s where you get the little dots on your cardiac scan, rather than generalized inflammation of the vascular wall. That, my friends, is cardiovascular disease in a nut shell.
So, what is the cure for all these diseases? How do we stop the suffocation of our diabetics? How do we prevent the bacteria in our system from creating plaques? How do we stop the damage to our mitochondrial function in cancers? How do we get healthy?
