navicular Disease per George Eby
http://galliumnitrate.com/
QUESTION: What nutritional deficit is likely to cause navicular disease?
ANSWER: Whoa! Such a loaded question! I don't know in specific cases. However, if we think about the main nutrients for bone formation (calcium, phosphate, magnesium, zinc, copper, protein), we can ask the question, "Which of these are promoted by horse feed manufacturers and which are not?" Think about that question for a moment and you are likely to realize that "magnesium" is rarely listed in horse feed-sack ingredients. If magnesium is listed, it is likely to be the cheapest source, magnesium oxide, of which little (about 3 to 4 percent) is absorbed and utilized. Sources of the other nutrients are not nearly as severely limiting. Consequently, magnesium is a VERY good candidate for study. High dietary magnesium is associated with hard tough bones and teeth. Unless horses are fed quite a bit of alfalfa (a bad idea for other reasons discussed below), most horses do not get enough magnesium in their diets. Worse, in horse feeds magnesium oxide is used. Unfortunately it is not bioavailable according to the three published reports below.
I do not think a gallium deficiency is the cause, since gallium is found only in tiny amounts in the soil. According to Dr. Larry Bernstein, there is clearly some gallium in common foods, so it is at least feasible for gallium to be a useful, if not essential, nutrient. The average gallium content of the earth's crust is about 17 parts per million (17 ppm). The mean value for soils is about the same, with a reported range of <4 to 70 ppm (Kabata-Pendias, A (2000) Trace Elements in Soils and Plants, Third Edition. Boca Raton, Florida: CRC Press, pp 432 ). The amounts of gallium in soils are about 10 to 100 times higher than in foods, so gallium is clearly not concentrated by plants or animals. Here is a Russian report on the amount of gallium in foods, translated by Dr. Larry Bernstein.
I want to bring substantial emphasis to the likely issue of the uselessness of magnesium oxide being used in supplements and in horse feeds. Magnesium oxide appears totally useless because it too tightly bound together for the stomach acid to dissociate into a biologically useful ionic form according to the following articles. I assume this applies to horses too. This medical journal article abstract reported that "...magnesium oxide was no better than taking placebo...". This medical journal article reported "... poor bioavailability of magnesium oxide (fractional absorption 4 per cent)".... Another research reported "...The increment in urinary magnesium following magnesium citrate load (25 mMol) was significantly higher than that obtained from magnesium oxide load (during 4 hours post-load, 0.22 vs 0.006 mg/mg creatinine, p less than 0.05; during second 2 hours post-load, 0.035 vs 0.008 mg/mg creatinine, p less than 0.05). Thus, magnesium citrate was more soluble and bioavailable than magnesium oxide." This data can be interpreted to mean that magnesium oxide raised blood levels of magnesium only 1 / 37 that of magnesium citrate. Since essentially all of magnesium citrate is biologically available, and because 1/37 = 2.3%, magnesium oxide is about 2.3% biologically available from that article. Thus, these dirt cheap oxide forms of magnesium will not provide the nutritional support desired, but that is what your feed supplier is most likely to use.
Unfortunately, alfalfa is so high in protein that it causes behavior problems in some horses, especially thoroughbreds. There are two amino acids (glutamic acid and aspartic acid) that are necessary for growth of horses but also happen to be excitatory amino acids for their brains. Lots of alfalfa and clover seem fine (and necessary) for growing frisky ponies, but excess glutamic and/or aspartic acid in an adult horse undergoing training or involved in dressage work (particularly in the unfamiliar or alarming setting of competition) can have similar adverse effects on the horse's mind as giving too much mono-sodium-glutamate (MSG) or too much aspartame to people. It can mess up their brains and makes them hyperexcited, agitated, high or "hot".
In alfalfa (Lucerne), the content of aspartic acid was 19.20% and for glutamic acid was 9.37% (from Babinec et al.). Similarly these excitatory amino acids are also high in clover. Aspartate is converted to glutamate in the liver. Neither of these otherwise outstanding sources of amino acids should be used in horses (particularly thoroughbreds) undergoing dressage training or any training wherein the horse is expected to be extremely obedient and quiet. In human foods, MSG is used to improve flavor of foods, and a similar effect of glutamates seems to occur in horses, thus their love for alfalfa and clover. In fact, a small handful of alfalfa sprinkled over Bermuda grass or Timothy hay greatly increases the appeal of hay, but does not seem to promote hyperexcitability as long as the amount is no more than a few ounces of alfalfa.
Here is a humorous list of situations that NOT feeding high protein (high glutamate or aspartate) feeds might help. Magnesium and taurine, an amino acid, also help prevent glutamate excitotoxicity through regulation of calcium and mitochondrial energy metabolism, and may find utility in quieting horses toxic on glutamates (alfalfa and clover). This is a current research item of mine in equine nutrition. We have fed one to five heaping tablespoons of taurine daily, and find that it gentles one of our two wilder-than-desired thoroughbreds into a docile dressage horse. The other we deem too smart to put up with riders and we don't ride him (Don Dee), although in the spring and summer of 200, a wonderful young lady is riding him, since "He is the most elegant and outstanding horse I have ever seen or ridden" says she, even though Don Dee is 20 years old in 2008. Also, an Italian commercial preparation called RIBHORSE contains taurine and is used in the "recovery" of race horses by feeding it immediately before and after races. When routine feeding of several tablespoons of taurine per meal terminates excitotoxicity, such may mean one aspect of liver disease has been benefited. Importantly, taurine is the most common amino acid in the heart and it is so important that the liver makes it for us. There is insufficient taurine in both horse and human feeds to survive on dietary sources. For example, several years ago in 2005, Sharpe (Don Dee's brother) was not behaving well and he had a lethal liver test report. He was dying of liver failure according to our veterinarian. We gave taurine, lots of it, and his liver returned, and the latest reports showed no liver problems. Weird? True too! For vastly more information on taurine and its effects on the brain, see this 135 page report.
Long-term large feedings of alfalfa to horses are also are implicated in producing enteroliths (intestinal stones) weighing many pounds which always require major surgery to remove. These stones can also cause hyperexcitability, possibly by their irritating (bouncing) effects in the horse's intestines. These stones are made of magnesium ammonium phosphate and are believed to be caused by excess ammonia as result of breakdown of alfalfa reaching the intestines. Again, serious bone disease and laminitis can be caused by too much calcium and insufficient magnesium in diet. Grass tetany is caused by magnesium deficiency.
Consequently, I believe magnesium without the production of ammonia and without excessive phosphate is vital, particularly when there is other evidence of liver disease. I was really put off recently due to a certain Austin "homeopathic" veterinarian suggesting that "too much" magnesium (by implication the amount I recommend) would cause liver damage. Nothing could be further from the truth, and such comment only shows the total lack of knowledge of the people that we pay to take care of our horses. Look up "liver damage" or "hepatitis" and "magnesium" in the National Library of Medicine's PubMed on-line service. You won't find anything meaningful. While you are there look up "calcium" and "liver damage" or "hepatitis" and that data will blow your mind.
Alfalfa is also high in calcium, and is now implicated as the cause of most tying up incidents. The cure for tying up? Don't supplement with calcium and never feed significant amounts of alfalfa. These ideas are new, but absolutely sound.
Therefore, I do not feed high protein feeds (namely alfalfa or clover), but I do mix into our horses' feed about 16 grams of magnesium carbonate and some taurine (a heaping tablespoon each meal) as dietary supplements with their morning and evening meals. I strongly recommend magnesium supplementation in all horses, navicular diseased or not. I have used magnesium carbonate dietary supplement products for humans available at health food stores, grocery stores and pharmacies for easy measurement, but such is expensive. Bulk sales in buckets of powdered magnesium carbonate are available over the Internet Also, check your local telephone directory for availability of magnesium carbonate and taurine, under industrial, agriculture, pharmaceutical and nutritional chemicals. Also, see this google.com search for "magnesium carbonate" "supplier". See Magnesium in Horses for more information on the role of magnesium in equine mental and bone health.
We need to study the necessity for magnesium in bone development, and the effect of magnesium deficiency in bone calcium loss. You can search PubMed, the National Library of Medicine's collection of original medical and veterinary research for "magnesium deficiency" and "bone loss", "bone", "osteoporosis", "bone degeneration", "arthritis", "tieing up" "grass tetany" and other related search terms.
Low magnesium attrit the telomeres in our DNA causing aging. This is the most important reason we have to keep our magnesium levels high, since it slows aging in both horses and people. This was discovered recently by none other than world-famous geneticist Bruce Ames of Berkley. Here is what his Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences abstract says:
Magnesium inadequacy affects more than half of the U.S. population and is associated with increased risk for many age-related diseases, yet the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Altered cellular physiology has been demonstrated after acute exposure to severe magnesium deficiency, but few reports have addressed the consequences of long-term exposure to moderate magnesium deficiency in human cells. Therefore, IMR-90 human fibroblasts were continuously cultured in magnesium-deficient conditions to determine the long-term effects on the cells. These fibroblasts did not demonstrate differences in cellular viability or plating efficiency but did exhibit a decreased replicative lifespan in populations cultured in magnesium-deficient compared with standard media conditions, both at ambient (20% O2) and physiological (5% O2) oxygen tension. The growth rates for immortalized IMR-90 fibroblasts were not affected under the same conditions. IMR-90 fibroblast populations cultured in magnesium-deficient conditions had increased senescence-associated ß-galactosidase activity and increased p16INK4a and p21WAF1 protein expression compared with cultures from standard media conditions. Telomere attrition was also accelerated in cell populations from magnesium-deficient cultures. Thus, the long-term consequence of inadequate magnesium availability in human fibroblast cultures was accelerated cellular senescence, which may be a mechanism through which chronic magnesium inadequacy could promote or exacerbate age-related disease.
If you don't know what "telomeres" are, I will tell you and give you a reference. Telomeres are the sacrificial ends of strands of DNA. They are lost a little bit each year and eventually we run out of them. At that time our DNA gets messed up and shortly later we get cancer and/or die of old age. If cells divided without telomeres, they would lose the end of their chromosomes, and the necessary information it contains. In 1972, James Watson named this phenomenon the "end replication problem." The telomere is a disposable buffer fro our DNA strands, which is consumed during cell division and is replenished by an enzyme, the telomerase reverse transcriptase. This mechanism usually limits cells to a fixed number of divisions, and animal studies suggest that this is responsible for aging on the cellular level and it directly affects lifespan. Telomeres also protect a cell's chromosomes from fusing with each other or rearranging. These chromosome abnormalities can lead to cancer, so cells are normally destroyed when telomeres are consumed. Most cancer is the result of cells bypassing this destruction. Biologists speculate that this mechanism is a trade-off between aging and cancer. Seems to me that there would be a big market for telomerase reverse transcriptase if it could be bottled or injected. We could call the product "DNA Bumpers".
Without going further into complex and multifaceted reasons for my opinion, the neglect of magnesium in horse feed appears grave. Magnesium deficiency probably causes more equine health problems than any other current equine nutritional deficit. Even nations are at risk from having imbalances in the calcium to magnesium ratio in the population's diet. The United States of America now has the worst record of heart disease in the Western world, mainly because physicians, nutritionists and dietitians, both private and government, insist on a high calcium to magnesium 3:1 ratio, when a 1:1 ratio or even a 1:2 ratio is desperately needed. For the most up to date information of magnesium and human health (applicable to horses too), read "The Magnesium Factor" by Mildred Seelig, MD, one of the world's foremost authorities on magnesium nutrition. Yes, horses have sudden death heart attacks from low magnesium - high calcium diets. If you don't mind getting your feet wet, you can start your study of magnesium and calcium imbalances here. In the following 1977 graphic from Dr. Seelig's year 2003 book, The Magnesium Factor", Finland revised its diet to include more magnesium and potassium and now has a lower incident of heart disease than Japan. Did the United States follow the lead of Finland toward the healthy heart? No. It would bankrupt many hospitals and physicians, and we are just fodder to them.

Aging Baby Boomers: 10,000 per day
from
Here's my website again: ====>
http://cynthiayroberto.stemtechbiz.com/
Friend, here's another healthy business for you!
January 22nd, 2012 at 7:14 pmThis is my 2nd email to you today but this is important, for a
money-making and a health business you can get into, to ride the
next big mega trend in a business market opportunity.
Please read on:
Why Investors Riding This Historic $4 Trillion Money Slam won't
be worrying about energy, euros, or elections in 2012.
We're on the brink... it's an event more powerful than Wall
Street's meltdown... the coming political cycle... the overseas or
US debt crisis... even peak oil and technology... it's being called
a "perfect storm"... of wealth...for the savvy investor or business
person.
There is a new situation in the world that will be the cause of a
massive amount of cash pouring into one particular industry... over
$4 trillion... and this money flood will affect millions of
Americans.... slam into the US financial system... and generate
hundreds of billions of dollars in profits.... regardless of global
events.
And this money flood has nothing to do with gold, silver, bonds,
the rise and fall of the dollar, the euro, or interest rates... and
it's not about politics or policies.
Yet its financial effects stand to surpass the annual US military
budget, the economic impact of the entire "Green Revolution" to
date... even the Internet!
But here's what's most important for you...
Over the next three to five years, it's estimated that this
situation will create more millionaires - and put more people in
the poorhouse - than any other trend.
And it all starts on March 1, 2012.
So what exactly is this $4-trillion "money slam" that will
resemble the early days of the internet?
The first driving force is a financial upheaval we’ve all known
about for a long time, that we hear about almost daily – but most
are still woefully unprepared for.
Here it is.... on March 1 2012, ten thousand Baby Boomers will turn
65 years old.
Ten thousand more will turn 65 the next day. And the day after
that... and the day after that...
And every day for the next 18 years.
This will be – by far – the largest increase in “retirement
age” citizens in our nation’s history.
And as analysts at Standard & Poor's recently reported, "No
other force is likely to shape the future of national economic
health as the irreversible rate at which the world's population
is aging."
And here’s what we need to wake up to...
Virtually every one of these nearly 65.7 MILLION adults will soon
need hearing and vision diagnostics... heart medication... cancer
treatments and vaccines... memory supplements... and much, much
more.
As they turn 65, it is estimated that one in eight will suffer
from Alzheimer's... 43% will already have high cholesterol... over
2.5 million will already be in imminent danger of a heart attack.
Yet according to a Harvard study, nearly 70% of these Boomers
“expect to live into their eighties and beyond.”
And just how are they, or should I say for many readers – you
– going to accomplish that?
Quite simply, by spending an enormous amount of money – up to
$4 TRILLION dollars – on new life-saving-and-extending medical
treatments, techniques, and technology.
So whatever you may think about the way medical care is provided
in this country... and regardless of Medicare, Medicaid, or any
other government programs...
One thing is certain...
We’re about to witness the largest explosion in healthcare
business this nation has ever seen.
Harvard scientist George Church calls just one driving force of
this revolution so powerful, “it resembles the early days of the
Internet”.
And if this situation unfolds as expected, over the coming months
and years, some investors and business people involved in either
traditional or alternative health care could make a shockingly
large amount of money.
Thanks largely to over 65 million new Boomers, by 2020 an
estimated one in every five dollars spent in the U.S. will go to
health care, either traditional or alternative.
According to Bain Capital, overall healthcare spending will skyrocket
from $2.4 trillion to an estimated “$4 trillion contribution to
global GDP” by 2020. Yet there are even more forces at work...
The biotech sector alone has seen revenues jump more than 500%
over the past 15 years. And now, with billions pouring into the
sector annually, sales are likely to soar even faster.
On top of that, we’re on the threshold of the most intensive
period of major medical breakthroughs in history. Scientists
building new, life-saving organs... a human’s three-billion-strand
genetic profile mapped out in 60 seconds... anti-smoking vaccines...
wireless “pills” transmitting symptoms to your doctor’s computer.
No longer science fiction, we’re witnessing the dawn of a “new
reality” as we speak...as well as new markets of breathtaking size.
Combine these three megatrends – a huge influx of new consumers...
trillions of new dollars pouring into the industry... and a vast
expansion of breakthrough medical technology... – and we’ll soon
be amidst a lightning fast, continuous transformation of virtually
every company in this $4-trillion market.
Indeed – a monumental “money slam” – creating the most
potent investment situation of our lifetimes.
There's been a recent PBS special “The Boomer Century” that
says “There’s nothing to rival it.”
There can be no doubt… this money slam is going to happen –
regardless of the 2012 elections... regardless of what happens
with interest rates, bonds, commodities and currencies... even
regardless of the global debt crisis.
And it’s starting right now...
There are only two questions: Which companies are going to take
the lion’s share of this $4-trillion money slam? And how can you
get involved without having to spend alot of money?
It’s no secret investors can make extraordinary returns from
medical breakthroughs.
Research shows science has the potential to not just treat –
but actually cure – no less than eight of the world’s most deadly
diseases, including cancer, heart disease and diabetes.
How can you ride the coat tails of the coming mega trend? Well,
you can buy stocks in the hottest healthcare companies if you have
big bucks to invest....or....you can get involved in a different way
with alternative care companies for very little investment.
Here's how I'm getting involved:
INTRODUCING: STEMTECH, a company that has developed over the
last 7 years, a natural product that can actually reverse the
aging process, not just slow it down. StemTech has established
itself as the global leader in adult stem cell nutrition.
What if I told you that it may be possible for you to live to age
100 or even longer, in better health than you are in right now?
And, if you are already experiencing the ill effects of aging,
what if I told you that it may be possible for you to look and
feel 20 years younger and stay that way beyond the age of 100?
Aside from the fact that you'd probably call me crazy, I have to
tell you that we have never been as close as we are today to
actually being able to extend human life! ... and with quality!
In fact, the chances are that this crucial information may allow
you to live long enough to take advantage of scientific breakthroughs
yet to come. It may even let you extend your life span to 120
years or more, because as you will soon find out, aging is no
longer inevitable.
Right now, for the first time in medical history, you have the
option of trading the nursing home for the golf course.
If you'd like to beat chronic fatique, restore muscle mass, melt
years of harmful fat, restore vitality and color to your hair,
pump up your libido, improve the strength of your heart, regain
eagle-eye vision, help normalize blood pressure, beat depression
and increase your sense of happiness and contentment and fortify
your immune system, then I believe you and your loved ones will
benefit from Adult Stem Cell nutritional supplements.
So, what are we talking about here?
I'm talking about a natural nutritional supplement derived from
certain herbs, mushroom, and seaweed and another edible aquatic
botanical plant called AFA, that together synergistically support
the release of adult stem cells from your own bone marrow and puts
more stem cells into your bloodstream... and the overall benefits
are HUGE.
As the stem cells migrate through your body, they find tissues,
glands, ligaments, tendons or organs that need rejuvenating,
renewing or repairing.
For instance, as the stem cells migrate through a person's body
and finds the liver in need of repair, they circulate into the
liver and that person has increased liver function. If a person's
pancreas is under-performing, the stem cells will flock to that
gland and the pancreas will increase in functionality. If a person's
ligaments in the shoulder or knees have been damaged, the stem cells
will aid in the tissues to be repaired.
The StemTech products do not contain stem cells of any kind and
are not associated with embryonic stem cells.
StemTech products supports the natural release and activity of
adult stem cells, the “master” cells that maintain tissue, by
transforming themselves into healthy new cells. This may help you
maintain universal health and give you the edge you need to feel
your best.
Is this the Fountain of Youth?
Has science discovered the magic bullet that can reverse the
aging process and let you slice twenty years off your current age?
Are you ready to regain your youthful sense of well-being and a
zest for life along with the deepest levels of sleep?
Let's face it, youthful energy, youthful skin, youthful s.ex
drive and youthful vitality never get old. It's fun to feel young
again and act young. So, how do you stay young? You don't need
to set sail for the Fountain of Youth because it lies within the
cells of each of us.
You'll be able to say "so long" to almost every old-age ailment
and join thousands of people from 35 to 85 who have left behind
that gray, stooped stranger in the mirror to greet a vibrant,
youthful person who looks and feels like a million bucks every day.
If you or a loved one needs to increase health and vitality
and/or want to make more money and a lot of it, then you need to
join the StemTech company as an independent distributor. There's
an opportunity here that can give you a business that can obviously
be enhanced by the aging baby boomers.
Remember? On March 1, 10,000 baby boomers will turn age 65. And
the next day, another 10,000 will turn 65...and the next day and
the next day, etc... for the next 18 years!!!
If you would like to join thousands of people all over the world
and take advantage of the scientific breakthroughs of the StemTech
company and start to enjoy the benefits of better cardiac output,
higher energy levels, lower blood pressure, faster wound healing,
greater resistance to health problems, then you owe it to yourself
to get involved.
Here's how to get involved now. Visit my independent distributor
website:
====> http://cynthiayroberto.stemtechbiz.com/
Choose your country flag and language and peruse the videos and
the Product and Opportunity tabs.
Decide if you want to buy retail or to sign up as a distributor
and buy wholesale and make an international online business out
of it.
Luckily, this product and opportunity are available in many
countries... I ordered here in Mexico and it arrived this last
weekend. I'll be monitoring the benefits to myself and to my
husband Roberto and I'll be sure to report back. I have a shoulder
injury (bursitis) from lifting hand weights last summer and he has
both knees injured (ligaments) from falling after his broken ankle
surgery last year.
We have both tried arnica creme, infrared and ultrasound therapies,
but after so many months, nothing is really helping either of us.
We haven't been able to swim since our injuries and now we both
need to lose weight. He is depressed too because it hurts his
ankle and knees to walk...so...we will both have our own stories
to tell soon and we both look forward to having our injuries
repaired and our energy renewed so we can exercise again. His
hair is grey too, and so I look forward to a more youthful husband
with less grey, slimmer and funner and with lots more ener
