The immune system is a very powerful system, but it?s not indestructible. It has many external and internal enemies. For example, are you under a lot of stress? Do you take medications for lowering your cholesterol, or blood pressure, or to control other long term conditions? Are you using your cell phone extensively? Do you live or work next to a cell phone antenna? Were you exposed to UV or X-Ray radiation? Did you pass the age of 40? Stress, medications, radiation (UV, x-Ray, cell phone, etc.), and aging, all decrease the efficiency of the immune system.

One of the most important functions of the immune system is controlling the number of chronic viruses living in your body. Some of these viruses are the very common Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex virus (HSV), Varicella Zoster virus (VZV), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), and Human Papillomavirus (HPV).

What happens when the immune system is weak? These viruses multiply and cause major diseases, such as arthritis, heart disease, asthma, cancer, diabetes, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, or even accelerated aging. (See scientific research on the link between chronic viruses and these diseases at http://www.gene-eden.com/Gene-Eden.htm.)

How do viruses cause major diseases? And what can you do to stop them?

To answer these questions, we will concentrate on one disease: cancer. Scientists believe that cancer, and many other diseases, start with a genetic mutation. For instance take breast cancer and the BRCA1 gene. This gene manufactures a protein that stops the cell from replicating, and of course, prevents it from turning into a tumor. In contrast to the scientists? beliefs, many studies showed that only 5% of the breast cancer patients have a mutated BRCA1 gene. What about the rest? What about the 95%? What causes breast cancer in these non-mutated patients? Big mystery!

In 2003, Dr. Hanan Polansky unraveled this mystery. In his ?purple book,? he explained how the other 95% of the patients develop breast cancer without having a mutated gene.

Scientists showed that all people are infected with some chronic viruses. (Curious to know which viruses reside in your body? Ask your doctor for a simple blood test, or visit the Gene-Eden website at http://www.gene-eden.com/immune.htm for further instructions.) According to Dr. Hanan Polansky, chronic viruses are genetic parasites. These viruses compete with the human genes for a scarce and important genetic resource. When they multiply, the human genes lose the competition and ?starve.? There just isn?t enough of the scarce resource for everyone. Starved human genes don?t function properly, and start to show the behavior that scientists usually see in mutated genes. Now, we all know that mutated genes cause disease. So, it is easy to see why starved genes, which behave like mutated genes, also cause disease.

Breast cancer and the BRCA1 are not unique. When a chronic virus starves another gene, called CD18, the infected host develops atherosclerosis, heart attacks, and even stroke. When a chronic virus starves a third gene, called TF, the host develops autoimmune diseases, such as juvenile diabetes, lupus, arthritis, Crohn’s disease, and the list goes on and on.

Why is the ?Starved Gene? discovery important?

It is important since it allowed the scientists at polyDNA to develop the antiviral supplement Gene-Eden, which, for the first time, targets the cause of the major diseases rather than their symptoms.

Gene-Eden is a natural, broad range, antiviral dietary supplement that targets viruses during their latent or chronic phase. The supplement?s formulation includes five compounds. To find these compounds, the scientists at polyDNA first downloaded thousands of scientific papers, than analyzed these papers with their in-house, proprietary bio-informatics software, and then used the results of the analysis to find the most powerful and safe compounds. Would you like to read the clinical and laboratory studies, which were published in scientific journals and show that the five compounds have a strong antiviral effect? Then visit the Gene-Eden website. Also, as would be expected from the rigorous process used by the scientists at polyDNA, users of Gene-Eden report significant improvements in their health.
