You told us in a channeling that in about 80% of periodontal disease cases, the chronic gingivitis is actually caused by a virus, and a search of the literature turned up some scientific support of viral involvement in that disorder. A paper by M. Kazi, et al. (J. Clin. Diag. Res., 2015 Jul, Vol-9(7): DC05-DC08) describes that among 75 patients with periodontitis, 81.33% as a group had detectable HSV-1, HSV-2, Epstein-Barr virus, or cytomegalovirus. Although scientifically, this is only showing an association of virus presence, is this actually reflecting true causation of the illness for those patients?

Arguably, the biggest champion over the years for cancer as a metabolic disease and largely ignored by medical opinion leaders, has been Dr. Thomas Seyfried who has promoted ketogenic diets as an adjunct to conventional treatment. A state of ketosis lowers blood sugar which tumor cells need, and elevates ketone bodies which normal cells can use for energy but tumor cells can’t. But even he seems blind to the clues about viral causation. In a 2014 study in Cancer Letters, he augments his theory of the central role of metabolism in glioblastoma in describing how 90% of brain tumor cells are infected by cytomegalovirus, “which is a supercharger for allowing tumor cells to use glucose and glutamine.” That biochemical pathway allows energy for tumors to grow despite inadequate oxygenation. But he doesn’t ask, why are viruses there to begin with and what other role might they play? Is this an example of mind control suppression to limit scientific progress?
