Live Blood Screening

Using one or two drops of your blood, Sue will be able to investigate the size, shape, and ratios of the red cells, white cells and platelets in your blood. From this she can identify certain nutritional and lifestyle factors that may improve your health.

Live Blood Screening is an amazing tool to allow you to see the quality of the life force flowing through your veins, on a big screen and includes a full written report to take home and keep for future reference. The computer stores a copy for you also, so you can compare results each visit.

Overview Live blood screening is fundamentally the observation of living blood under an extremely powerful microscope connected to a camera. Live blood screening enables us to see your blood exactly as it behaves inside your body, giving a clear picture of your health at a cellular level. We are not looking for patterns that lead to a ‘diagnosis’ but are merely looking for imbalances in your blood. The condition and quality of your red blood cells have a direct impact on your present and future health, with stress and disease appearing in the blood years before they manifest in the body.

What does live blood screening involve?

A drop of blood is obtained from your fingertip using a sterile lancet. This is then placed on a glass slide and covered with a cover slip to protect it from the outside elements. Your blood is then examined immediately under a very high powered microscope (magnified 20,000 times) and the results captured on camera, enabling you to view your live blood still interacting and moving around on a video screen.By observing how your blood picture relates to the health challenges you are experiencing, any deficiencies relating to your nutrition can be easily identified. A specific tailor-made healthy eating plan is then prescribed using food as the medicine to restore your blood to a healthy condition by removing the excess acidity and toxins.

Live blood screening is a unique health check which gives a clear picture of your true inner health and can be the best way to detect certain conditions. It evaluates the internal environment known as the biological terrain and addresses areas of imbalance suggested by your blood pictures, but it is not considered diagnostic, i.e. it is not able to diagnose specific illnesses or other health problems. No medical test by itself is usually considered diagnostic without corroborating lab tests, imaging studies or a physical examination.

How does it differ from a regular test?

In order to best understand the difference and the benefits of this particular test it is necessary to consider the conventional blood test that is given at the doctor’s surgery or hospital, known as a Full Blood Count (FBC). Almost every person has experienced this particular test which involves inserting a needle into the patient’s arm and extracting a syringe full of blood, which can be a very painful ordeal for some people. The blood sample is then sent to a laboratory to be examined by a haematologist and it can take several days to receive the results. However, the major problem with this test is that half an hour after the blood cells are extracted from the human body they die so the haematologist is merely counting dead blood cells. The blood is also changed through the addition of stains and dyes in order to facilitate the analysis. The results take the form of a quantitative analysis of the blood, that is to say how many dead red blood cells, how many dead white blood cells, what number is the cholesterol level etc. These results usually come with a set of ranges; for example blood cholesterol should not exceed a certain limit otherwise it is considered high. Throughout this time the results are being interpreted by a doctor who may say that a patient is anaemic or has high cholesterol, for example, but the patient usually never has the opportunity to see the results for themselves and would possibly not be able to interpret them even if they did.

Live blood screening differs immensely from the conventional analysis, firstly because it only involves a tiny non-invasive pin prick on the fingertip to extract a drop of blood and so is not painful. The blood is observed live under a microscope giving the patient the ability to see his or her blood on a video screen. The results are instant; there is no waiting around and the patient gets to participate and understand what is happening inside their own bodies.

Live blood screening is a qualitative analysis of the blood and because the blood examined is still alive it actually gives a more accurate picture of how the blood is behaving inside the patient’s body. It is almost like looking inside the veins of a person and has great advantages because it gives a clearer picture of a person’s health at a cellular level.

For example, a conventional blood test cannot tell whether or not the white blood cells – which represent the immune system – are functioning correctly which is important information. Live blood screening gives the patient the opportunity to see immune system activity amongst many other phenomena that would be missed by conventional techniques such as: yeast, fungus, mould, bacteria, parasites, hormonal imbalances, sugar imbalances, sugar intolerance, allergies, mycotoxins, uric acid and more.

What do you get to see?

Live blood screening is the only way to see how your blood actually behaves in real life inside your veins.

Healthy blood should show cells which are uniform in shape, size and colour. They should reside freely in their own space, not overlapping or sticking together but gently repelling each other because of their negative charge. Unhealthy blood cells look broken, squashed or stuck together.

When blood is perfectly balanced (homeostasis) the red blood cells are loose and free flowing. They are mainly round (not oval, oblong, jagged or varying in size) and the background is clear from floating matter such as bacteria, fungus etc. The white blood cells are approximately twice as large as the red blood cells. There is approximately one white blood cell for every 700 to 900 red. They can occur in any shape, but have a crisp, clean border and extensive movement.

Live blood screening is a qualitative test that reveals:

• Relative level of acidity in the body fluids and the effects of these acids on the body
  

  darkfield red cells

• Relative activity of the immune system
• Condition of the red blood cells and changes in form and function
• General organ ‘stress’
• Presence of parasites, bacteria, yeast, fungus and mould
• Blood sugar and hormonal imbalances
• Malabsorption of fats, proteins and other nutrients
• Crystalline forms of morbid matter, acids, cholesterol and mycotoxins
• Degenerative stress and gastrointestinal tract dysfunction.
• Presence of heavy metal

None of these phenomena can be observed from a conventional blood test.

What is the science behind live blood screening?

Live blood screening, also known as nutritional microscopy, is the science of qualitative blood analysis for the purpose of evaluating health at the cellular level. Since blood is required throughout the entire body and without it we would cease to exist, blood could be called our ‘river of life’. Blood can also be considered as an organ just like the heart, lungs, kidney or liver. Indeed, all of these organs rely heavily on good quality blood to replenish them.

The quality of the blood is vital to healthy, disease-free existence and this is dependent on correct nutrition. Healthy blood pH is 7.365 and the body will do anything to maintain this level, in the same way that it maintains the correct body temperature. When we eat unhealthy or acidic foods the body has to work much harder to bring the pH level back to its preferred alkaline balance of 7.365, thus drawing energy from our bodies which makes us feel sick and tired.

There are two types of screening involved in nutritional microscopy. The first is called live blood screening, whereby the blood has not been altered or changed in any way.  Because this unchanged sample has many variables such as how hydrated you are, what you ate over the past day or so, a second – dried blood – test is carried out in order to obtain the complete picture.

This is called the Mycotoxic Oxidative Stress Test (MOST), which looks for the acid wastes of yeast and bacteria and where they are settling in the body, causing stress to those areas. By finding out how effectively your blood clots, we can get an idea of your overall constitution. As blood cannot coagulate where acids settle, white puddles or discoloration appear; the size and shape of which represent the severity of cellular disorganisation. The location of these puddles also corresponds to different organ systems. By letting the blood clot for 30 seconds before placing it on a slide we can look deeper into the organs and further back in time, enabling us to view conditions that have been developing over some time.

History of live and dry blood analysis

Viewing live blood under a microscope is probably as old as the microscope itself. But it was the work of European scientists Dr Antoine Bechamp and Dr Gunther Enderlein in the mid-19th and early 20th centuries that would advance the use of the microscope, challenge the medical establishment of the day and propose new ways of interpreting what was being viewed in blood. Other microscopists included noted physiologist Dr Claude Bernard, who coined the term “internal milieu”, Germ Theory advocate Louis Pasteur, Californian Dr. Virginia Livingston Wheeler and Canadian scientist Gaston Naessens. (Dr Robert O Young PhD D.Sc: 2001: Sick and Tired)

Pasteur formulated the ‘Germ Theory’ by plagiarizing Antoine Bechamp’s theory of pleomorphism. Pleomorphism can be clearly demonstrated when viewing live blood cells. Bechamp postulated that it was all about the internal environment within the blood and that bacterium was a consequence of a polluted environment in the same way that rats would appear when rubbish was dumped because they wished to feed off it. Bacteria exist all around us yet we do not get sick all the time because we have immune systems that recognise these organisms and remove them from the body. When the body becomes acidic or toxic similar to a rubbish dump then it becomes a ‘fertile soil’ for bacteria, yeast and mould, hence disease.

Pasteur’s theory was accepted by the then medical fraternity because it meant huge revenues for pharmaceutical drug companies. Bechamp’s theory was rejected because it merely meant that the individual would have to take responsibility for their own health by choosing the correct nutritional habits and lifestyle and there was no money to be made from that. The medical fraternity therefore deemed Bechamp’s theory as ‘unscientific’ claiming that Pasteur’s theory could be consistently demonstrated. Pasteur’s theory has since been shown to be faulty because we now have antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria and at the same time vindicating Bechamp who said that the bacteria or microzyma could not be killed as it will only change or mutate.

In the 1920s, European medical practitioners added another twist to unconventional microscopy when they began looking at dried blood samples, later called the Oxidative Stress Test. A glass microscope slide is dabbed onto a bead of blood on the finger in sequence several times, resulting in a slide with eight individual drops of blood pressed upon the slide and allowed to air dry.

The resulting patterns seen in the dry blood under the bright field format reveal a characteristic ‘footprint’ which can be seen in similar cases and, thus, are predictive of certain generalised pathologies. For instance, cases of advanced degenerative disease show very poor clotting and minimal fibrin formation with many white ‘puddles’ disseminated throughout the sample. In contrast, a healthy control subject’s blood shows a tight, fibrin-rich clotting pattern with no white puddles.

In the 1930s, the head of surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital, Dr H L Bowlen MD, introduced the dry blood test to America. Dr Bowlen learned the dry test from President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s physicians, Drs Heitlan and LaGarde. In the 1970s, one of Heitlan-LaGarde’s students, Dr Robert Bradford of the American Biologics Hospital in Mexico, began teaching other practitioners how to perform this test. So there is now over 70 years of dry blood testing data by hundreds of healthcare practitioners worldwide.

Nutritional microscopy is now an alternative examination routinely practised by holistic medical, osteopathic, chiropractic and naturopathic physicians, as well as other healthcare professionals around the world, to provide an insightful view of the biological terrain.

Dr Robert O Young has extended the work carried out with live and dry blood analysis with nearly two decades of research. In particular, his findings on the use of the Mycotoxic Oxidative Stress Test have resulted in major advances of understanding.
