Understanding Raynaud’s Disease

Raynaud’s disease is the diagnosis of a disease where the person cannot produce and retain enough body heat. Basically, they are always cold.

Whatever heat their cells produce fizzles after 5 to 10 minutes. As a result, they feel colder than everyone else in the house, at work, in the classroom, etc. They feel so cold that their feet or fingers become numb and as cold as ice. If their flesh is pressed, blanching may occur, or it may take a few seconds for their skin to rebound. Many Raynaud disease sufferers are extremely anemic.

They would like to be in the sun all the time overlooking the fact that exposure to the sun could make them susceptible to skin cancer or melanoma.

The question is, if a person has blood in their arteries, veins and capillaries, why do they still feel so cold? There are a few reasons to explain Raynaud’s disease.

In the malaria belt, meaning in the tropical countries where malaria is endemic, antimalarial drugs and malarial injections cause Raynaud’s disease. I used to be one of the Raynaud sufferers in the malaria belt.

In the non-tropical countries, prussic acid in nuts and lactucopicrin in lettuce tend to cause Raynaud’s disease or they make it worse. There have also been instances where theobromine in coffee, in chocolate and in kola nuts; and theophylline in teas, caused Raynaud’s disease, or they made it worse.

To understand the beginning of Raynaud’s disease, it is important to revisit the hypothalamus.

The hypothalamus is a group of highly specialized cells in the brain. It regulates the release of all hormones; and it also regulates body temperature, appetite, thirst, etc. 

If the DNA in the hypothalamic cells that regulate body temperature is damaged, it will not be able to unwind to transmit the blueprint to the three RNAs (messenger, transfer and ribosomal); and because it is damaged, the gene will not transmit the blueprint to it. As a result, the hypothalamus will not be able to coordinate the release of thermal energy that the combustion chambers produce. 

Work of the heat production units

The heat production units aka combustion chambers are inside the mitochondrion of each adipose (fat) cell, and in each cell of the skeletal muscle. This is why it is important to have some fat padding in the skeletal muscles. Another term for fat padding is, insulation.

However, even though saturated fat provides better insulation, it is better to have insulation from polyunsaturated fat. Why? The answer is, if it is polyunsaturated fat that is stored in the adipose tissues, the person will never run out of HDL (good cholesterol), but if it is saturated fat that is stored in the adipose tissues, the person will be cold resistant, but they will have a cholesterol problem. 

Therefore, it is better to be healthy and not have Raynaud’s disease than to have Raynaud’s disease and also have a cholesterol problem. Many Raynaud sufferers also suffer from hyperlipidemia. The reason for emphasizing the importance of HDL (good cholesterol) is, that is all our ribosomal RNA uses to produce our essentials.

Ribosomal RNA relies on the blueprint for the number of atoms of magnesium and hydrogen that should be combined with the atoms of HDL in order to start the combustion process. If the blueprint is not available because DNA is in disrepair, heat will not be produced. Here is what else should be known about the heat production process.

After each round of combustion, debris must be removed. Who removes this debris? A person who cannot produce debris-removing acid to keep removing combustion debris after heat has been produced, will cause a shutdown of their heat production units. 

Therefore, it is the non-removal of combustion debris, and leaving DNA in a state of disrepair that make a person susceptible to Raynaud’s disease.

Why is heat important?

Heat is important because it maintains our body’s temperature.  A person who continues to feel cold internally will never be healthy. This is because all our enzymes are produced with a lot of heat. Then, all our essentials are also produced with a lot of heat.

Also, in addition to the electricity that the cations and the electrons produce, heat supplies electricity to all our systems. Therefore, the greater the amount of internal heat we have, the more oxygen, and electricity there will be.

All viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and fungi know that heat and oxygen go together. This is why when they cause an infection, they head straight to the hypothalamus and to the heat production units within the mitochondrion to damage them, and shut them down. If they succeed in damaging them, the hypothalamus will no longer be able to coordinate and regulate body temperature. As a result, fever will occur.

Fever indicates that microbes have overpowered the hypothalamus, and their toxins are shutting down the heat production units. This is why using herbs or a pharmaceutical drug to lower the temperature of a person who has fever is wrong. It is wrong because it would leave their DNA in many of their cells in a state of disrepair. 

Eventually, the person with fragmented DNA will suffer from cold sensitivity or from full-blown Raynaud’s disease. This was what happened to me when I was a child. I was always coming down with fever, and all the doctors could do was, treat me with antimalarial drugs. This was how and why I contracted Raynaud’s disease. Today, I do not have Raynaud’s disease.

The culprits

Who are the saboteurs of the heat production units and the hypothalamic cells? They are not too hard to find.

These saboteurs are: formic acid in many fruits, prussic acid, theobromine, theophylline, and the alkaloids in many vegetables that are eaten raw, as well as certain pharmaceutical drugs. They block the removal of combustion debris and the repair of DNA. Then, the toxins of microbes go on to damage the heat production units.

Raynaud’s disease is not a mystery. Every disease has its cause; and it is what we eat or put in our systems that will end up causing Raynaud’s disease.

Understanding the root cause of Raynaud’s disease paves the way for its reversal.
