Germanium is a white, lustrous, brittle metal and
ultra-trace mineral that was discovered by Clemens Alexander Winkler in 1886.
There are two forms of germanium: inorganic, which is used in manufacturing
processes and known to pose health risks to humans, and organic, which has been
found to be health protective to animals and humans.
Fights Cancer
In a landmark intervention study, a 47-year-old female with
pulmonary cancer refused further medical treatment. After seven months of
treatment with Germanium Sesquioxide (7.2 g/day with dose reduced toward the
last month), she became cancer-free.
Protects Against Amyloidosis
Amyloidosis is a disorder characterized by deposits of
amyloids, abnormal proteins that cannot be used or broken down by the body,
adversely influencing the normal functioning of the affected organs. In a study
of two groups of mice, one group received 300 mg/kg of Ge-132 for 22 months,
while the other received 30 mg/kg. Results showed the control mice developed
senile amyloidosis.
Boosts the Immune System
Research has shown
that administration of Ge -132 induces interferon-gamma levels, which in turn
increase the activity of NK cells and macrophages. Interferons are glycoproteins
that inhibit the growth and proliferation of viruses, and natural killer cells,
