TIA’s, Strokes and Purpura
Sometimes, the elderly person is aware of the onset of abrain attack; they may see stars or peculiar shapes or lose vision
temporarily. These are called temporary ischemic attacks
(TIA's). Immediately give a 100 mg tablet of niacin, 1 gram vitamin
C, and a B-complex in this order of importance.
TIA’s are caused by spasming in the brain blood vessels. If
this causes them to spring a tiny leak somewhere, a part of the
brain will not get its usual oxygen and nourishment. A stroke
results.
The spasming was probably caused by sorghum molds.
Cooking during the manufacturing of sorghum syrup kills the
mold but its toxic byproducts (mycotoxins) are still present.
Other syrups may have sorghum added, polluting them. Brown
sugar is also polluted with sorghum molds, but fortunately you
can detoxify this mold with vitamin C as usual. Mix well ¼ tsp.
powdered vitamin C with each new (1 lb.) box of brown sugar.
Purple patches, like bruises, on the hands or arms of an elderly
person are called purpura, and is also caused by sorghum
molds. It weakens blood vessels so they break easily.
When an elderly person has purpura or TIA’s and the mold
source isn’t obvious, you must track it down. Test in a saliva
sample for all the sweetenings used recently (at least an hour
ago). At the very least, keep notes on all the sweeteners being
used. Look for a common one at the next attack. Never let the
trigger food be eaten again
