What Is Sarcoidosis and How to Fight it?

In the following reports you are going to learn about sarcoidosis, and autoimmune diseases in general. Including many things your doctor never told you probably because he didn't know them. You’ll learn what may be happening to your body when you have sarcoidosis. What the underlying causes of it may be. And what may need to be considered in attempting to deal with it. You will have a better understanding of sarcoidosis after reading these reports.

Sarcoidosis shares much in common with other autoimmune diseases. Research on any particular one usually, but not always, applies to the other autoimmune diseases. They have similar underlying causes and conditions, and consequently similar ways of dealing with them.

The main symptom that labels an autoimmune disease as sarcoidosis is a type of inflammation with granulomas. Most commonly they are found in the lungs, skin, lymph nodes, liver or spleen. Often they go away after a few years but even if they do that, they can come back later with a vengeance.

Some of the latest research has shown that it is bacteria in the granulomas that initiate and cause sarcoidosis. So this is definitely one autoimmune disease where antibiotics or supplements that kill bacteria or help the body to better kill bacteria can play a vital role.

These bacteria produce vitamin D. So people with sarcoidosis may suffer from vitamin D toxicity. Especially if they are out in the sun a lot, drink vitamin D fortified milk, or take supplements with vitamin D. This is completely different than an autoimmune disease like MS where there is usually not enough vitamin D. It may be advisable to test your vitamin D levels. If they are high drastically limit exposure to the sun and refrain from taking anything with added vitamin D. After several months elevated vitamin D levels would then start to level out.

You may experience Sarcoidosis in almost any part of your body, although it usually affects some organs more than others. It usually starts in one of two places:

• Lungs
• Lymph nodes, especially the lymph nodes in your chest cavity.

Sarcoidosis also often affects your:

• Skin
• Eyes
• Liver.

Less often, sarcoidosis affects your:

• Spleen
• Brain
• Nerves
• Heart
• Tear glands
• Salivary glands
• Bones and joints.

Rarely, sarcoidosis affects other organs, including your:

• Thyroid gland
• Breasts
• Kidneys
• Reproductive organs.

Sarcoidosis almost always occurs in more than one organ at a time.

Sarcoidosis has an active and a nonactive phase:

• In the active phase, the granulomas form and grow. In this phase, symptoms can develop, and scar tissue can form in the organs where the granulomas occur.
• In the nonactive phase, the inflammation goes down, and the granulomas stay the same size or shrink. But the scars may remain and cause symptoms.

The course of the disease varies greatly among people.

• In many people, sarcoidosis is mild. The inflammation that causes the granulomas may get better on its own. The granulomas may stop growing or shrink. Symptoms may go away within a few years.
• In some people, the inflammation remains but doesn't get worse. You may also have symptoms or flare-ups and need treatment every now and then.
• In other people, sarcoidosis slowly gets worse over the years and can cause permanent organ damage. Although treatment can help, sarcoidosis may leave scar tissue in the lungs, skin, eyes, or other organs. The scar tissue can affect how the organs work. Treatment usually does not affect scar tissue.

Changes in sarcoidosis usually occur slowly (e.g., over months). Sarcoidosis does not usually cause sudden illness. However, some symptoms may occur suddenly. They include:

• Disturbed heart rhythms
• Arthritis in the ankles
• Eye symptoms.

In some serious cases in which vital organs are affected, sarcoidosis can result in death.

Sarcoidosis is not a form of cancer.

There is no known way to prevent sarcoidosis.

Sarcoidosis was once thought to be a rare condition. It's now known to affect tens of thousands of people throughout the United States. Because many people who have sarcoidosis have no symptoms, it's hard to know how many people have the condition.

Sarcoidosis was identified in the late 1860s. Since then, scientists have developed better tests to diagnose it and made advances in treating it.

What Causes Sarcoidosis?

The cause of sarcoidosis is not known. And, there may be more than one thing that causes it.

Scientists think that sarcoidosis develops when your immune system responds to something in the environment (e.g., bacteria, viruses, dust, chemicals) or perhaps to your own body tissue (autoimmunity).

Normally, your immune system defends your body against things that it sees as foreign and harmful. It does this by sending special cells to the organs that are being affected by these things. These cells release chemicals that produce inflammation around the foreign substance or substances to isolate and destroy them.

In sarcoidosis, this inflammation remains and leads to the development of granulomas or lumps.

Scientists have not yet identified the specific substance or substances that trigger the immune system response in the first place. They also think that sarcoidosis develops only if you have inherited a certain combination of genes.

You can't catch sarcoidosis from someone who has it.

More research is needed to discover what causes sarcoidosis. Here are some general symptoms of autoimmune diseases that are thought to be connected to Sarcoidosis.

Symptoms of Autoimmune Diseases

Spouses and family members, even though someone may look perfectly healthy, if they have an autoimmune disease, they are truly ill. It is not in their head.

The following symptoms are common in many, if not all, autoimmune diseases.

Fatigue: It’s not a good fatigue, from working hard, but an anxious, uncomfortable fatigue related to lack of sleep. Or a disruption of the energy production mechanism in cells, either from lack of oxygen, increased toxicity, infections or a malfunction of the mitochondria.

Sleep Disturbance: About 80% may wake up three or four times a night, or in some cases you don’t wake up, but in the morning you still feel like a truck ran over you. The reason for this is that subliminal seizures kick you out of stage 4, Delta sleep, to stage 1 sleep so you can’t sleep deeply and wake up not rested.

Short Term Memory Loss: Because of the low thyroid and heart complications typical in autoimmune diseases, there is a decrease in blood flow to the left lobe of the brain causing an oxygen deficiency in the brain. This can lead to the memory loss and forgetfulness that is common in autoimmune diseases.

Emotional Liability: Someone may cry more easily, be more anxious and fearful. This is caused by the illness, and is not a psychological reaction!

Depression: As with the emotional symptoms, the hypothalamus is involved. This is not clinical depression, but literally has a physical cause that is sometimes experienced as a deep depression right in the heart.

Low Thyroid Function. About 85% have this symptom, but only about 10% of the time does it show up on a typical thyroid test. If you get tested, have both a T3 and T4 done. About 10% have excessive hair loss. For most everyone, a poorly performing thyroid will show up as subnormal temperatures.

Gastrointestinal Problems: About 75% have this symptom. Can be anything from gas, bloating, cramps, diarrhea or constipation to hiatal hernia, irritable bowel syndrome or Crohn’s Disease. Sometimes taking a simple homeopathic remedy like arsenicum album, 6x or 6c and make a difference with this.

Swollen Glands, Chemical Sensitivity, and Headaches: Allergies often develop, usually after 3 to 5 years. Eyes can be light sensitive for 6 months or longer. Dry eyes can develop. About 20% experience a very uncomfortable disequilibrium of vertigo, almost an out of body feeling that can be most disconcerting.

Pain and Fibromyalgia: Often diagnosed as a separate illness, fibromyalgia is basically a symptom that can occur with any autoimmune disease. If you have it, you’ve got pain. Often in the neck and in shoulder muscles extending down the back. Can be in the joints and muscles also.

Low Blood Sugar.

Candida Yeast Infections: These are very common. Check your tongue. If it has a white coating, you have it. Or take the spit test you will read about later. Women may get vaginal yeast infections caused by Candida overgrowth. A Candida infection on its own can cause a number of autoimmune type symptoms. Sinus infections often are caused by Candida.

Tingling hands. Ringing ears. Cold toes. Cold fingers. Metallic taste in mouth. Caused by poor circulation and who knows what.

Overdoing: You over-exercise or overwork when you feel good, and then feel worse for days afterward. This can cause serious problems. In healthy people the body shuts down when the anaerobic threshold is reached as a lot of pain is experienced. This warning does not occur if you have an autoimmune disease. Instead, the body continues to exercise and experiences no pain as the lactic acid builds up, and the body ends up recirculating carbon dioxide. This is not a healthy thing to have happen to you. It is important not to push too hard when you start recovering, or this will set you back and wipe you out.

Fluttering Heart. Panic Attacks. Rapid Heartbeat. Mitral Valve Prolapse. Usually blood pressure is low, though it can get high later on. The heart under-pumps blood because it is getting incorrect messages from the autonomous nervous system. The body’s feedback loop picks this up and over-reacts. And you get these symptoms.

If you have autoimmune illness, it is not likely you have all these symptoms. However, you will have many of them to one degree or another.

This information is for educational purposes only. I am not a doctor. This is not medical advice on how to treat autoimmune conditions, but information to help you understand them.

What Are the Signs and Symptoms of Sarcoidosis?

Many people who have sarcoidosis have no symptoms or general symptoms that seem unrelated to Sarcoidosis. Often, the condition is discovered by accident only because a person has a chest x-ray for another reason, such as a pre-employment x-ray.

Some people have very few symptoms, but others have many.

Here is a rundown of symptoms that occur with Sarcoidosis according to which organ is affected. You may have one or many of these symptoms depending on the severity of the disease.

Lung Symptoms

When Sarcoidosis affects your lungs it produces symptoms such as shortness of breath or wheezing. You may have a dry cough that doesn’t bring up phlegm, and on rare occasions a pain in the middle of your chest that gets worse when you breathe deeply or cough.

Lymph Node Symptoms

Lymph node symptoms include enlarged and sometimes tender lymph nodes—most often those in your neck and chest but sometimes those under your chin, in your armpits, or in your groin.

Skin Symptoms

Various types of bumps, ulcers, or, rarely, flat areas of discolored skin, that appear mostly near your nose, eyes, back, arms, legs, and scalp. They usually itch but aren't painful. They usually last a long time.

Painful bumps that usually appear on your ankles and shins and can be warm, tender, red or purple-to-red in color, and slightly raised. This is called erythema nodosum. You may have fever and swollen ankles and joint pain along with the bumps. The bumps often are an early sign of sarcoidosis, but they occur in other diseases too. The bumps usually go away in weeks to months, even without treatment.

Disfiguring skin sores that may affect your nose, nasal passages, cheeks, ears, eyelids, and fingers. This is called lupus pernio. The sores tend to be ongoing and can return after treatment is over.

Eye Symptoms

Eye symptoms include burning, itching, and tearing pain. Your eyes may appear red and dry and may be sensitive to light. Anything affecting your vision may also be a symptom of sarcoidosis.

Heart Symptoms

Shortness of breath, wheezing and coughing can indicate symptoms of sarcoidosis. Irregularities with your heart such as palpitations, skipped beats, or an irregular heartbeat are also sarcoidosis symptoms.

Sarcoidosis has symptoms in almost every organ in your body. Look for pain and swelling in your Joints and Muscles. Painless holes in your bones or painless swelling, mostly in your fingers are Bone Symptoms. Liver Symptoms include pain in the upper part of the abdomen, under the right ribs, along with fever, fatigue, and itching.

Nervous System symptoms are headaches, vision problems, or weakness or numbness in an arm or leg. These also are Pituitary Gland symptoms. Paying attention to your body and noticing any irregularities is the first line of defense against Sarcoidosis.

These general symptoms are often caused by other conditions. If you have these general symptoms but don't have symptoms from affected organs, you probably do not have sarcoidosis.

Now after giving you information about this complicated autoimmune condition we will recommend different products that we feel will help treat and heal Sarcoidosis.

We suggest using the following list of supplements when dealing with Sarcoidosis.

 The products are listed in order of importance.  The number in front of the name is the number of bottles to use per month and the price per bottle follows the name.

You do not need to take all of the products but, the more you can manage, the quicker you can see results.  For instance, if you take the top 4 products, you could be finished with sarcoidosis in 4 months. The top 8 products used in the suggested amounts will eliminate sarcoidosis in 3 months. The products are:

1  Elixir Combo 

2  Ultra Liver8  

3  Zeolite Enhanced  

1  PRP Factor  

1  Immune Power Herbal Formula  

1  Zormus  

2  Seasonal Rescue   

1  GeProCoQ10    

Below is a list of these products with some information about each.

Elixir Combo:  All Four of the Elixirs in one combo.  One bottle each of the Salagram, BioVibe, Vortex and InLightEner Elixirs. 30% of their benefit comes from modulating the autoimmune response. 40% comes from their ability to improve the immune system’s capability to kill pathogens. The final 30% is their ability to increase the healing response in the body.

Salagram Elixir is the most powerful healing substance we have ever seen. It is an energetic elixir made by using a rare and extremely powerful Salagrama Sila stone that has the correct shape and color which enable it to charge water energetically and vibrationally to produce dramatic healing results. In India Ayurvedic experts explain that charging water with this stone produces a powerful healing remedy capable of healing all diseases. Our supplier for this remarkable elixir was fortunate enough to obtain this rare stone, and over the course of 12 years was able to develop a way to stabilize the healing effect in water with the Salagrama Sila. The correct Vedic procedures need to be used along with a stabilization process to insure that the vibrational state and stored energy in the Salagram Elixir is 100% available to the cells. The Ayurvedic expert worked with stated that water correctly charged with the Salagrama Sila is more powerful than all herbal, nutritional, homeopathic and vibrational/energy remedies combined. It was this expert’s opinion that every human being on the planet should be consuming small amounts of the water charged correctly with the Salagrama Sila. That it will make all the difference in the world when it comes to restoring and maintaining health. 

Our energetic testing shows this to be perhaps not far from the truth. It tests at having over 100 times more healing power than an ordinary supplement. In fact it is so powerful we only recommend you use it along with the BioVibe gem elixir. Not only do they work together synergistically to provide an even more powerful healing effect, but the BioVibe helps to balance out your body. 

BioVibe is a frequency enhanced elixir that stimulates the body’s fight against pathogens and all diseases. It is an energetic medicine, acting as an immuno-modulator that is effective for both immune compromised and autoimmune disorders. It enhances the electrical interactions and communication between cells which in turn provides optimum health and quality of life.

A strong and healthy immune system is imperative for optimum health. Before vitamins, minerals, and enzymes, before tissue pH, before any molecular component can play a role in facilitating human health, your cells are reliant on electricity. The human body generates 3 volts of electricity. This energy is used by the brain to send signals, the heart to respond to stimuli, and is used by every cell to communicate with each other in order to facilitate cellular changes. A drop in electrical activity is most noticeable in terminal patients that are "wasting away".  BioVibe enhances and energizes this electrical activity with the special energetic frequencies that are in it. As does Salagram Elixir and Vortex Elixir and Rejuvin. They all work in different ways to increase the health and life force in your body. Salagram Elixir and BioVibe though work closely together so we offer them as a pair.

Vortex Elixir   Vortex Elixir captures vortexing energy created in a small, contained water supply so that it contains specific energy and frequency signatures that are supportive of living chemistry at a cellular level. Taking it enhances all the vortexing energy in your body. This comprises all your acupuncture points, the energy chakras, and even the energy traveling up the spine. Thus, it accelerates and enhances the flow of life force energy in your body. Taking Vortex Elixir every day will produce quick and dramatic healing changes on every level: physical, mental and emotional. Half its benefit comes from increasing energy flow in the body. Half comes from producing changes at the spiritual level in your body.

 The healing power of both the Vortex Elixir and the Salagram Elixir is literally 100 to 300 times more than the best nutritional supplements. Setting these two elixirs in a healing realm way beyond anything we have ever seen. Creation of the Vortex Elixir does not involve an actual physical motion process. Instead, an energy vortex is created in a small, contained water supply to restructure H2O with specific energy and frequency signatures that are supportive of living chemistry on a cellular level. It literally will support and improve all the vortexing energy in the human body, including acupuncture points, the energy vortexing up the spine, and more. Taking Vortex Elixir every day will produce quick and dramatic healing changes on every level: physical, mental and emotional. 

InLightEner:   The immune system is simply a very complex and vast communication system and on the most fundamental level the immune system cells exchange information via light impulses. The US Navy did research on how the cells communicate via light and found that increasing the speed and efficiency of cellular communication has a profound effect on reversing mutation tendencies in DNA mechanisms and therefore cures and prevents cancer of all kinds as well a many other diseases.

Both electrons and photons are inseparable and ultimately oxygen. High energy water is directly connected to oxygen availability. InLightEner is unique because it contains stored light energy and not just stored energy but intimately bound to electrons and oxygen.

The vibrational information in InLightEner allows light energy to create faster and more coherent cell to cell communication and ultimately super conductive cell to cell communication to defeat disease that already exists and to defend against disease before it can get started. 

UltraLiver8: UltraLiver8 helps to boost the immune system response against Sarcoidosis, and supports the liver’s efforts to detoxify the toxins in your body. But does so in a different way so that both of these products work together synergistically.  Oriental medicine has long recognized the liver's pivotal role in maintaining robust physical health and energy even in old age. Equally important today is the liver's role in cleaning our blood, and removing dangerous toxins. In these key roles, your liver can use all the help it can get. Ultra Liver 8 is a synergistic blend of eight renowned food complexes that specifically nutritionally support optimal liver function. The Reishi mushroom is supplies is a powerful immune system booster.

 Contains 665 mg Organic 'horned' Reishi, 507 mg Organic Triphala, 345 mg Organic Burdock, 150 mg N-Acetyl-Cysteine, 150 mg Organic Artichoke Leaf Extract, 51 mg Quercetin, 51 mg Organic Cranberry powder and 30 mg ProCoQ10 in vegetarian capsules. 90 caps per bottle. Take 3 capsules 3 times daily with meals.

Zeolite Enhanced: This is our frequency enhanced liquid zeolite. Zeolite is a volcanic mineral that absorbs toxins and viral particles, thus stopping viral replication. The energetic frequencies put into Zeolite Enhanced help to kill pathogens such as the bad bacteria that cause sarcoidosis, and also work to stimulate the immune system response against that bacteria. About 60% of its benefit comes from these pathogen fighting abilities. About 40% comes from it being an excellent detoxifier of heavy metals and other toxins. It attracts toxins to it and absorbs them in its molecular structure.

PRP Factor:   A proprietary proline-rich extract of grade A bovine colostrum, it delivers thousands of bioactive nutritional compounds including high therapeutic levels of PRP's and Cytokines. 40% of its benefit comes from turning off the autoimmune response. 60% from boosting the immune system’s ability to kill pathogens.

While these nutrients are known to nutritionally support the immune, cytokine and endocrine systems, recent research indicates that they also have powerful action against degenerative conditions and infections of all types.

"PRP in bovine colostrum has the same ability to regulate activity of the immune system as hormones of the Thymus gland. It activates an underactive immune system, helping it move into action against disease-causing organisms. PRP also suppresses an overactive immune system, such as is often seen in the autoimmune diseases. PRP is highly anti-inflammatory and also appears to act on T-cell precursors to produce helper T-cells and suppresser T-cells" ...Drs. Staroscik, et. al., Molecular Immunology.

PRP factor is specially formulated to deliver therapeutic levels of:

Proline-Rich Polypeptides (PRP) 

Cytokines

Nine distinct growth factors 

Dozens of known Immune system regulators 

Lactoferrin and Transferrin 

All of which have antiviral, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-unhealthy cell action. In short, this all natural extract of bovine colostrum helps rebuilds the immune system, helps the body ward off foreign invaders, accelerates healing of all body tissue, increases bone and lean muscle mass and replenishes an aging system. One bottle is a month's supply for most uses. 100% Casein Free

Immune Power Herbal Formula contains 15 different herbs in proprietary combination, with all the herbs being safe and non-toxic. Developed by a researcher working with herbs and cancer, these herbs are also anti-inflammatory. Drinking one cup a day (normal supplementation) the container will last two months. Drink up to six cups a day for serious conditions. Organically grown: Dandelion Leaf, Rose Petal, Milfoil, Verbenia, Orange Peel, Hyssop, Red Raspberry Leaf, Angelica, Shavegrass, Ginseng, Star of Bethlehem, Sweet Violet, Cleavers, Red Clover, Burdock.

Zormus:   This Homeopathic Beryllium formulation is designed to reduce pain, inflammation and fatigue. Also used for arthritis pain, general joint and muscle pain, headaches, flu, sore throat, deficient digestion and elimination and depression/anxiety.

It is energized with M power and other vibrational technology which makes it much more effective than ordinary homeopathic remedies.  40% of its usefulness lies in its anti-inflammatory ability. 60% in killing pathogens. One fluid ounce spray bottle lasts one month.

Seasonal Rescue:  Supports and enhances the ability of the liver, kidneys and lymph system to detoxify. More importantly, at the same time it boosts the immune system to fight infections, and  any other situation where the immune system needs to kick in.  This very potent herbal formulation works best when you load up on it, taking 4 tablets three times a day. It stimulates the immune system to better kill pathogens.

Ingredients: Schizandra, Lavender Flower, Jamaican Dogwood, Lime Flower, Astragalus, Anise Seed, Suma, Cats Claw, Zinc Citrate, Caraway Seed, Myrrh, Cinnamon Bark, Nutmeg, Vitamin C, Echinacea, Golden Seal, Hyssop, Turmeric, Wasabi Japonica, and Cayenne. One bottle supplies 180 tablets.

Ge-ProCoQ10-Max is the Powerful, Affordable, Absorbable CoQ10 as proven in the latest in CoQ10 science - NEW to US Market. May be up to 18 times better absorbed and utilized than regular CoQ10 and at least twice as absorbable as the used to be the newest and best quinols. It increases cellular energy as it improves oxygen usage in the cells.

Human trials show that taking ProCoQ10 results in 18 times higher serum levels of CoQ10 than standard CoQ10. The solubility and absorbability of the CoQ10 in ProCoQ10 has been greatly increased through using "ester science" that gets the nutrients through the digestive system and into your cells. Other human clinical trials show that at just 30mg a day ProCoQ10 reduced daily DNA damage in humans by 51%.  And shrank human skin wrinkles in 6 weeks.

Each capsule of Ge-ProCoQ10-Max supplies 150 mg of CoQ10. This is equivalent to 2,700 mg of the usual CoQ10. An amazingly high amount. In addition you get 50 mg of Organic Germanium-132. Germanium 132 is greatly important in Ge-ProCoQ10-Max because it dramatically improves cellular oxygen levels. Organic Germanium 132 is an oxygen-rich organic form of trace mineral germanium which has been studied for its antiviral, immuno-stimulative and free-radical scavenging actions, and for supporting improved oxygen utilization.

In addition, each capsule supplies 450 mg of Soluble Rice Bran Complex (SRBC) which is 100% usable and absorbable... with a full spectrum and balance of health-restoring nutrients that man-made supplements can never provide. It is completely digestible because only the soluble part of the stabilized rice germ and bran is used. When taking just one capsule you are receiving the equivalent nutrition 1 pound of ordinary brown rice, without all the starch. This nutritious Rice Complex strongly supports maximum absorption of ProCoQ10 - and further enhances its far ranging benefits. SRBC provides a broad range of antioxidants including tocotrienols, which have been found to be six thousand times more effective than vitamin E. Also natural B-Vitamins that boost energy and stamina and help stabilize blood sugar including Pangamic Acid (B-15). SRBS is a natural source of CoQ10, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Squalene and IP6 each of which is a well researched nutrient. For this reason SRBC is an ideal synergistic ingredient in our Ge-ProCoQ10 blend.
