Hi there everyone! 
Back to the grind and a third part to my series about my thoughts about the Marshall Protocol, and in this article I want to touch upon the protocol and Sarcoidosis.
Now if your not too familiar about Sarcoidosis, then here is a short description about this condition below…
Okay, I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis better than 15 years ago and as I know that sometimes people can have sarcoidosis and Churg Struass ( myself being a prime example, but here is another , just in case! ) I wanted to look further into the results if any as far as people who go on the Marshall Protocol and treatment of Sarcoidosis…below are some of my findings on the subject…
from ” The Marshall Protocol for Treating Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia: Hopeful Results Emerging ” from the site ProHealth.com..
” Question: A number of patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), Fibromyalgia (FM), and other chronic illnesses report they’re finding success following your sarcoidosis treatment protocol. Could you explain what CFS, FM, and sarcoidosis patients might have in common that could explain this? ”
” Trevor Marshall, PhD: Sarcoidosis is a Th1 inflammatory disease which can damage the lungs, heart, eyes, brain, liver, kidneys and soul. Patients are still being told it has no known cause and no known cure.
Tiny “pleomorphic” bacteria have been photographed living within the cells of the immune system of sarcoidosis patients. Emil and Barbara Wirostko produced stunning electron microscope photographs of immune phagocytes each containing hundreds of tiny bacterial forms, around 0.01 to 0.025 microns in diameter, living in colonies within the very cells (phagocytes) which are supposed to kill these bacterial parasites. One of the Wirostko photographs can be found at http://www.autoimmunityresearch.org/wirostko-fig3.jpg It is important to understand that these bacteria are “coccoid” (round, and very, very small), 10 to 100 times smaller than the shapes these same pleomorphic bacteria will take when they enter the bloodstream.
” We found that you can measure a hormone (in the blood) resulting from the Th1 inflammation produced by these tiny bacteria, and that it is elevated in Sarcoidosis patients. It is also often elevated in CFS patients, indicating that the inflammation of CFS is often very similar to that of Sarcoidosis. ”
” Question: Some researchers (including Garth Nicolson, PhD at The Institute for Molecular Medicine in Huntington Beach, California) and physicians believe that multiple co-infections including bacterial and mycoplasmal infections, play a key role in the onset and pathology of CFS and FM. To what extent are bacterial and mycoplasmal infections involved in sarcoidosis, and do you believe your methods for treating those infections in sarcoidosis apply to CFS and FM patients? ”
” Trevor Marshall, PhD: Multiple co-infections of antibiotic-resistant bacteria can act in unison because many of the species have evolved a similar technique for evading the immune system.
These bacteria live in the cytoplasm of phagocyte cells, and directly stimulate a protein called NuclearFactor-kappaB to cause the continuous release of inflammatory chemicals, a Th1 cytokine cascade. This is the source of the inflammation driving the CFS symptoms.
Where our work diverges from that of Dr. Nicolson is the manner in which we control the hormones Angiotensin II and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D so as to weaken the defense mechanism of these tiny bacteria, and allow the immune system itself to start to recognize and kill them. We then use common (oral) antibiotics, at a very low dosage, to help the immune system deal with the parasites. It is the immune system which kills these tiny resistant microbes, helped along by low-dose antibiotics. “

CFS- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
And here is different take on the Marshall Protocol…
taken from ” Tech-Archive.Net “…
The Marshall Protocol is not a proven cure for Sarcoidosis according to a former board staff member of the marshall protocol site:
Okay, so I presented you with two different views here in this latest post and as always when we look upon experimental treatments and therapies there are usually two sides to the coin and this case is no different.
For myself, after trying my own experiment with using supplements to help ease my asthma symptoms and lower my dependence on my medications I was pretty disappointed with my results even though in my case I was faced with some difficult circumstances that effected my overall results.
And without doing a lot of further investigation into just why my Sarcoidosis may have ( or may not have ) gotten worse…my thinking here is my systemic progression going from just having Sarcoid to finally being diagnosed with COPD means the condition grew in severity over the years….I have not been presented with any definitive information that points in the direction that The Marshall Protocol can actually be considered a cure for someone who suffers from Sarcoidosis.
I do want to point out that there is a ” 5 DVD disc Marshall Protocol ” set that features some of the following…
- Los Angeles Conference: Recovery from Chronic Disease (2 Discs)
- Selected Presentations from Several Conferences (1 Disc)
- 30th Anniversary of Lyme Conference, Farmington, CT (1 Disc)
- Marshall Protocol: The Science, Washington DC Conference (1 Disc)
