Although he was resuscitated, he suffered a heart attack and was left with permanent damage to his heart. This is a from a lawsuit. Law suits are rarely about the truth. We know that, Jeff. However, if a lawsuit proves anything to support AltMed claims, it has, by Logic, got to support other claims. In the past, I claimed that lawsuits do not have valid scientific standing as evidence. By logic, this lawsuit would not be valid scientific evidence, either. Doing otherwise would be hypocritically. Jeff EDTA binds to calcium. What may have happened is that the EDTA bound up a lot of calcium in the fluid around that heart cells, making that calcium unavailable to the heart. The heart needs calcium to pump. Without the calcium, the heart was unable to beat. But, as I said, the information is from a lawsuit. We won't know what really happened. Something similar happened in the 1980s, I think at Children's Hospital of PA. A child died, and they changed the protocol to make sure that the EDTA was slowly infused. Jeff |

By logic, this lawsuit would not be valid scientific evidence, either. Doing otherwise would be hypocritically. Agreed. However, I also apply the sauce/goose/gander argument to those who use suits as proof. Of course, they reject that, as the suit I am using calls into question one of their firmly held beliefs.
