We were first introduced to this product through
Dr. David Williams' "Alternatives" newsletter. For those of you who don't
know him, Dr. David Williams operated the largest non-invasive alternative
medical practice in central Texas until 1985. At that time, he sold his
clinic and devoted his full energy to traveling around the world seeking
non-traditional healing therapies and writing about them in his monthly
newsletter.
In his newsletter titled "How to cancer-proof every cell in your body," we
read about a nutritional supplement he considered the most powerful immune
booster known to man - a compound known as MGN-3. The newsletter discussed
the cancer research work of Dr. Ghoneum on 24 cancer patients where their
natural killer (NK) cell activity had increased by 130-150% 16 hours after
taking the recommended daily dosage of 3 grams (12 - 250mg capsules) of
MGN-3 per day. After one week, it had increased to 800%. At the end of 2
months, the NK cells activity had increased to 2700%. (Int J Immunotherapy
98;XIV(2):88-99)
Our immune system is made up of over 150 different types of white blood
cells. Of these, NK cells are one of the most common, representing up to 15%
of the total white blood cells. Dr. Ghoneum believes they are important
because, unlike other white blood cells, they are able to work more or less
independently, and do not require special instruction from the immune system
to recognize or attack a foreign cell. For this reason, Dr. Ghoneum
considered them to be the body's first line of defense against cancer and
viral-infected cells.
Copies of Dr. Goneum's MGN-3 research can be found at
www.lanelabs.com or by calling Lane
Labs at (201) 236-9090. Dr. Mamdooh Goneum, Ph.D. is a cancer research
immunologist at the Charles D. Drew University of Medicine and Science, Los
Angeles. He spent the last 18 years studying immunomodulating substances -
natural compounds derived from mushrooms, herbs, fungi and bacteria, and
synthetic drugs like Interleukin-2 and interferon.
As promising as the opinions of Dr. Goneum appear, please keep in mind that
his MGN-3 research is still in its preliminary stages. His research has not
scientifically demonstrated that MGN-3 can prevent, treat or cure cancer in
humans. No well-designed clinical trials have been published as of yet. If
you do have cancer, you should immediately seek the care of a qualified
physician. Cancer is a very serious life threatening disease and
conventional therapy should be your first step in treatment. If you chose to
use MGN-3 while being treated for cancer, please check with your doctor.
However, to support your nutritional needs, MGN-3 is a safe, natural dietary
supplement. It is produced by integrating an extract of rice bran with the
extracts of three different mushrooms: Shiitake, Kawaratake and Suehirotake.
