First attempt with the use of whole body north-pole magnetic therapy in HIV fails — possibly due to overexposure.
Ten hours a day of laying on a magnetic pad leads to an increase in the HIV viral load.
By Mark Konlee
The results I reported last month from Bob Mitchell on the Transfer Factor Plus (7 caps a day) along with Earthrise Spirulina, 15 caps a day and the colon formula 84211 were encouraging on August 14th. However, after sleeping and laying on the magnetic mattress for approximately 10 hours a day from Sept. 2nd through his latest lab test on Sept. 13th, all the numbers have taken a severe turn for the worse. His CD4's have dropped from 77 to 20 and his HIV viral load has increased from 4500 to 524,479.
What went wrong?
Could too much exposure to the magnetic field have caused the viral load to increase?
When Bob got his $500 magnetic mattress on Sept. 2nd, the original protocol I suggested was to lay on it for one hour twice a day, twelve hours apart. I suggested one hour before noon and again one hour before bedtime. Bob changed the protocol due to a lack of space in his small apartment and placed the magnetic mattress on his bed where he normally sleeps and spends hours on it during the day as well.
The very first reaction he had to the magnetic field was positive. He felt a sensation of heat being generated throughout his body and broke out in a sweat. These effects suggested a strong Detox reaction as well as the production of ATP needed by the cells to present viral antigen on the cell surface, a prerequisite event needed to trigger a CD8 Killer T cell response against virally infected cells. But these effects (the heat and sweating) soon subsided as he laid on the mattress hour after hour for as much as 10 to 12 hours a day. Several times during the past month, I told Bob of my concerns that he might be getting too much exposure to the magnetic field and this might cause some unknown adverse effect. I told Bob that overexposure to a magnetic field had personally lowered my energy levels and it was my opinion that one hour at a time was the maximum time to obtain the best results. When the lab results came in September 29th, it was obvious that the present method of using magnetic therapy had failed. It was also apparent that the magnetic field had no direct killing effect on the virus.
