Acquired Cumulative Systemic Neurotoxic Effect: The Future of Medicine & Biopsychology

Journal Title: Online Journal of Neurology and Brain Disorders - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 4

Abstract

As a result of working extensively with dozens of patients who had repeated exposure to toxins and solvents throughout their lifetimes, I wrote the article “Acquired Cumulative Neurotoxic Encephalopathy: Look toward the Future” which was published in the Academy of Medical Psychology Newsletter in March of 2015. Since then, I have reviewed hundreds of studies, and worked with additional patients, who have the onset of systemic disorders such as autoimmune disorders, multiple chemical sensitivity, allergic reactions, histamine intolerance, leaky gut, metabolic syndrome, and various myalgia conditions. Many of them can trace the onset of symptoms back to one point where they had, after repeated exposure to solvents or toxins, gone from relatively normal function to significant dysfunction. The term “LD50” is one that is well known to all chemists, pharmacologists, prescribers, and medical practitioners. In short, it is the amount of a substance that would have to be ingested to result in 50% of the subjects dying. The key is identifying the threshold (or level) at which a substance is toxic. These are basic medical concepts, but generally, the accumulation of toxins over time, which are not expelled from the body is less understood and attended to since it is assumed that the body will detox the substances consumed. If the body can not eliminate the toxin effectively, a build up of the toxins can occur resulting in toxicity. For individuals with impaired hepatic (liver) function, this is the cause of complications, and potentially death.
