Blood Coagulation Disorders

Hemophilia is an extremely cumbersome state, having taken its toll on humanity since ever.

In modern times treated with plasma transfusion, a definitive solution is still missing.

Coagulation factors are mainly produced by the liver.

This exquisite organ has been known since Antiquity for its capacity for regrowth.

Organ transplantation is a branch of Medicine experiencing a huge leap forward in recent decades.

Chemotherapy, first used for tumor therapy, is used as immunomodulation to prevent transplant rejection.

Exchange of characters between one’s own body and transplanted organ, especially in extremities, lets hope for a similar phenomenon elsewhere.

With time, the dominant character trait prevails.

Such characteristics, once exchanged between transplant and own organ are out of reach of the immune system.

Hence, transplanting a part of the liver of a compatible donor, possibly a family member, in the iliac fossa for instance, would permit even withdrawal of chemotherapy after a few months or years.

A cure for hemophilia would be the result.

Unsaturated fats are largely deficient in nutrition of population.

One result is membrane flaw in cells, but also in platelets, with aggregation and blood clot as result.

On the other side, nutrition with enough essential fatty acids provides a smooth endothelial surface of blood vessels, without an attaching point for a blood clot.

Deficit in vitamin B12 is prevailing with advancing age, which leads to thrombosis lung emboli.

Evolution has placed the system of fibrinolysis mainly in the lungs, which has allowed survival on this planet. (How beautiful!)

Every inflammation is an aggression for the organism.

Between other effects it promotes coagulation.

Eating meat from mammals induces such in tissues. Same happens with consumption of sugar and starches in excess.

Also, Lectins and Gluten are a similar issue.

Genetics

From this point of view all Vertebrates are tightly related animals. Pigs and all cattle are mammals (Triassic Period, 252-201 million years ago), remarkably like us.

Implanted cardiac porcine valves remain tens of years without deformity in the human body. Nowadays diabetics use genetically produced Insulin, but for half a century commercialized hormones were of porcine and bovine origin.

Hebrews and Moslems

Remember Moses would give precise recipes about the thorough cooking of meat, already five thousand years ago! He also forbids his people pig meat. (Similar with Moslems).

Birds, which is poultry are related to Dinosaurs, (Mesozoic, 350 million years ago), that is reptilians, and thus much farther in Evolution.

With fish we have common ancestors among Amphibians (Ordovician period, 530 million years ago), even farther away.

Invertebrates

Shrimps and crabs are crustaceans. Clams and mussels, as all those last-mentioned ones, like all Invertebrates (over 600 million years ago, Ordovician period), are extremely far from our species.

Since more than half a century, medical workers have observed lesser atherosclerosis ratios in populations consuming a lot of fish. On average, they also attain an older age.

Thus, a vegetarian diet protects against thrombosis and embolism.
