◗ Daiwa Health Development Launches Plasmanex1™
for Optimum Blood Circulation
Plasmanex1™, a dietary supplement with the active ingredient Bacillopeptidase F Proprietary Blend (BFPB), a natural soy enzyme extracted by using a patented fermentation
production process and shown to support healthy blood circulation, has been introduced
to the health practitioner marketplace by Los Angeles-based Daiwa Health Development.
Plasmanex1™ has three primary functions, confirmed through several studies, including
balancing blood flow through PAI-1 and t-PA, retarding thrombosis in abnormal coagulation states and decreasing blood viscosity through reduction of fibrinogen. The actions of
preventing thrombus formation and decreasing blood viscosity make Plasmanex1™ unique.
In some studies on patients with acute coagulation changes, the use of Plasmanex1™ caused
an increase in t-PA activity, an enzyme which acts to rapidly break down newly formed blood
clots in the blood vessels, and promotes plasmin viability. This activity led to increased t-PA
levels, ultimately increasing clot dissolution activity. Plasmanex1™ restored the PAI-1/t-PA
balance and lowered overall clot levels of fibrin and fibrin degradation products.

◗ SR-T2 Px: Thyroid hormone metabolite supplement you
can use without a prescription
Many patients have low body temperatures and symptoms consistent with slow metabolisms, even though their blood tests are normal. T2 is a close metabolite of the thyroid
hormones T4 and T3 that has long been considered inactive. Yet, T2 has been shown to
increase metabolic rate and thermogenesis! It is usually very well tolerated and can be
helpful in increasing low body temperature as is seen in Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome. T2 has also shown minimal effects on TSH levels. It can also be used along with
T3 or T4. T2 has been shown to be less cardio-active than T3. However, caution still
needs to be used since it potentially can cause heart palpitations. The formula contains a
sustained release agent thereby preventing a sudden surge of T2 in the bloodstream.

Supraphysiological
Cyclic Dosing of Sustained
Release T3 in Order to
Reset Low Basal Body
Temperature
Michael Friedman, ND; Jorge R. Miranda-Massari,
PharmD, Michael J. Gonzalez, DSC, PhD, FACN
The use of sustained release tri-iodothyronine (SR-T3) in clinical
practice, has gained popularity in the complementary and alternative
medical community in the treatment of chronic fatigue with a protocol
(WT3) pioneered by Dr. Denis Wilson. The WT3 protocol involves
the use of SR-T3 taken orally by the patient every 12 hours according to a cyclic dose schedule determined by patient response. The
patient is then weaned once a body temperature of 98.6 degrees F has
been maintained for 3 consecutive weeks. The symptoms associated with
this protocol have been given the name Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome
(WTS).
There have been clinical studies using T3 in patients who are euthyroid
based on normal TSH values. However, this treatment has created a controversy in the conventional medical community, especially with the American
Thyroid Association, because it is not based on a measured deficiency of
thyroid hormone. However, just as estrogen and progesterone are prescribed
to regulate menstrual cycles in patients who have normal serum hormone
levels, the WT3 therapy can be used to regulate metabolism despite normal
serum thyroid hormone levels. SR-T3 prescription is based exclusively on low
body temperature and presentation of symptoms.
Decreased T3 function exerts widespread effects throughout the body. It
can decrease serotonin and growth hormone levels and increase the number of adrenal hormone receptor sites. These effects may explain some
of the symptoms observed in WTS. The dysregulation of neuroendocrine
function may begin to explain such symptoms as alpha intrusion into
slow wave sleep, decrease in blood flow to the brain, alterations in
carbohydrate metabolism, fatigue, myalgia and arthralgia, depression
160 ❘

SPRING 2009
and cognitive dysfunction. Despite all thermoregulatory control
mechanisms of the body and the
complex metabolic processes
involved, WT3 therapy seems
a valuable tool to re-establish
normal body functions. We report
the results of 11 patients who underwent the WT3 protocol for the
treatment of CFS. All the patients
improved in the five symptoms
measured. All patients increased
their basal temperature. The recovery time varied from 3 weeks
to 12 months.
Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome
The hallmark symptoms of Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome (WTS),
fatigue, anxiety, depression, headaches,
insomnia, and muscle aches – are
indistinguishable from Chronic Fatigue
Syndrome (CFS), except that WTS
requires low body temperature as
diagnostic of WTS. WTS patients suffer
from a wide range of debilitating symptoms , including persistent or relapsing
fatigue, muscle aches, insomnia, cognitive dysfunction, and an overall lack
of well-being. Low body temperature,
depression, and chronic fatigue indicate
a hypometabolic state not unlike that
of hypothyroidism (1-2).
These symptoms resemble those of
conventionally recognized hypothyroidism and of CFS (3-5).
CFS is characterized by persistent or
relapsing debilitating fatigue that has
continued for at least 6 months in the
absence of any other definitive diagnosis.
The source of the fatigue is unknown
and the illness is not alleviated with bed
rest. Symptoms vary from person to
person and fluctuate in severity. CFS
patients function significantly below
their pre-illness capabilities. Their
quality of life is considerably affected.
Although patients experience the illness,
the symptoms do not have outward
identifying physical manifestations (6).
Although WTS does not require the
strict definition of fatigue lasting for
more than 6 months, it still appears
SPRING 2009 that in most cases the definition is
indistinguishable from CFS, except that
WTS includes patients who have mild
fatigue and it does not require other
symptoms to be present at the same
time. CFS includes fever as one potential symptoms, while WTS requires low
body temperature.
Low Body Temperature. Body temperature is controlled by an elaborate
thermoregulatory system that modulates heat production and heat loss so
that the core temperature is maintained
within a narrow range. The thermoregulatory center of the brain is located
in the pre-optic region of the anterior
hypothalamus (POAH). Neurons in the
POAH act as a thermostat and modulate heat production and heat loss to
control the body temperature. Heat
is produced from both metabolic and
physical activity. Basal metabolic rates
vary depending upon body mass, age,
environmental temperature, thyroid status, ingestion of food and supplements.
In a neutral environment the metabolic
rate of the body produces enough heat
to maintain a core body temperature at
37o C (98.6o F). When the heat content
of the body increases or decreases, the
thermoregulatory mechanisms become
active. These mechanisms involve
interactions between the sweat glands
and the nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems and are
collectively termed the thermoregulatory system. Due to daily circadian
variations, normal body temperature
fluctuates from a lowest of 36.1o C (97o
F) between 2:00 and 6:00 a.m. and a
highest of 37.8o C (100o F) between
5:00 and 7:00 p.m.
Since many factors can affect the
thermoregulatory control, many patients who have low body temperature
do not suffer from WTS. Low body
temperature in itself is not diagnostic
of WTS, without a minimum of one
accompanying symptom. However,
low body temperature appears as a
biological marker that consistently and
predictably changes during the progression from illness to health.
Although not always noted clinically, CFS patients often self-report low
average body temperatures. This low
body temperature has been attributed by some researchers to circadian
rhythm disruption (7). However, other
researchers have found normal mean
core body temperatures in CFS patients. It is possible that the subset of
CFS patients who suffer from low body
temperature were not represented in
this study. Alternatively, because CFS
patients experience circadian dysrhythmia as demonstrated by their disrupted
sleep patterns and salivary cortisol levels, it is possible that the results in this
study were affected by the time of day
that the study was performed, rather
than the mean average of temperatures
taken throughout the day (8-9).
History of Research of T3
T3 Treatments for euthyroid hypometabolism. The use of T3 for patients suffering from euthyroid hypometabolic states was first described
in the early 1950s. Euthyroid hypometabolism was described as a group
of symptoms very similar to CFS,
including fatigue, lethargy, irritability,
headaches, and musculoskeletal pain
with the absence of any known underlying cause, including normal TSH
levels. Studies performed by Kurland,
Sonkin, Title, and Morton reported the
efficacy of synthetic T3 (liothyronine
sodium) in eliminating the symptoms
of hypometabolism.
One such study performed by
Sonkin prescribed thyroid therapy for
88 patients suffering from euthyroid
hypometabolism. He scored each
patient for the following symptoms
before and after thyroid therapy. The
following results indicated that T3 was
effective in alleviating euthyroid hypometabolism (see Table 1)(10-12).

Psychiatric research in the use of T3
on euthyroid patients has indicated
that people need a decreased dose of
antidepressants when taking T3, and
that it is also a rapid, safe and effective
way of treating depression that fail to
tricyclics (13-14). This might explain
why WTS patients notice decreased
depression from the WT3 protocol.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and
Fibromyalgia Syndrome. CFS shares
many features with fibromyalgia
syndrome (FMS) (15). The predominance of pain or fatigue is the primary
means of distinguishing between
these two syndromes. Precedence
for the use of T3 to treat CFS can be
found in recent successful FMS studies. One study found that 75.32% of
FMS patients experienced decreased
tender point sensitivity as measured
by algometry after treatment with 75150 mcg T3 in conjunction with other
lifestyle changes, including unspecified increases in aerobic activity, diet
changes and nutrient supplementation
(16).
Other studies found that supraphysiologic doses of T3 produced significant improvement in all measured
parameters. These included algometer
measurement of tender point sensitivity, American College of Rheumatology measurement of pain distribution,
Visual Analog Scale measurement of
symptoms intensity, Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire scores, and Zung’s
Depression Inventory scores. Mean
heart rate elevations were noted during treatment as opposed to placebo
phases, but there was no report of
tachycardia or symptoms of thyrotoxicosis (17-18).
The Center of Disease Control
(CDC) hypothesizes that CFS might
be caused by an initial trigger, such as
a stress in the form of an infectious
agent, toxin or illness, that can cause
a hit and run situation in which once
the trigger has happened, the body
shifts into a hypo-metabolic state (19).
The hypothesis that a subtle thyroid
defect might be a secondary response
from the initial trigger of stress has not
been fully explored, but it has been
well documented that the conversion
of T4 to T3 decreases under periods of

Case Study Discussion
WT3 Protocol for CFS. We performed an in-house study in which
11 patients diagnosed with CFS
were given the WTS protocol. Each
patient was given a physical exam and
multi-chemistry panel to rule out any
other medically identifiable causes of
fatigue. We asked patients to evaluate
symptoms of CFS numerically before
and after treatment. Treatment was
considered complete when the patient
was able to maintain a body temperature of 98.6 o F. Table 2 presents the
results.
A value of “10” represents greatest
severity of symptoms, while “1” represents the least severity. A value of “0”
represents absence of symptoms. Each
patient required a different amount of
time to achieve normalization of body
temperature. Recovery time varied
between 3 weeks and 12 months.

A statistical analysis of these results,
conducted by Aikin*, revealed significant differences (see Table 3).
After the treatment is discontinued,
normally 3 to 6 months after initiation of treatment, the majority of CFS
patients report significant and continued improvement in their symptoms.
Most patients experience complete
resolution of their CFS symptoms
persisting years after treatment has
been discontinued. Based on clinical observations, many patients are
completely freed of fatigue, depression,
muscle aches, and other complaints
related to CFS.
In addition, if it is demonstrated that
return of oral temperature to 98.6o F
correlates closely with restoration of
good health in a high percentage of
CFS patients, this may indicate that
body temperature in itself is a useful
biological marker that can be reset to
normal. Since many patients who have
low body temperature do not have
CFS, we do not propose that it in itself
is diagnostic of CFS, but rather that it
is a biological marker that consistently
and predictably changes during the
progression from disease to health.

**Adjusted for Baseline
T3 Clinical Research
A 2001 study published by Bunevicius et al (22) showed that mood,
neuropsychological function, and cognitive abilities were much improved in
patients who had taken T3 as opposed
to T4 (levothyroxine). Although the
participants in the study were hypothyroid, the important aspect in the study
was that the patients were already taking exogenous T4 and thus had euthyroid TSH and T4 blood values, but still
had hypothyroid cognitive symptoms
that were resolved with T3 therapy. It
was concluded that T3 had much more
of an impact in human physiology than
once traditionally thought (22-23).
Thyroid Resistance Not only is it
possible that a conversion thyroid hormone problem might occur, but there is
evidence that thyroid resistance might
well be a secondary response to the
initial trigger causing CFS. Although
the concept of euthyroid fatigue was
recognized in conventional medicine in
the 1950s, it is not until recently that it
is gaining acceptance again in the medical literature. Current medical literature is identifying euthyroid patients
who exhibit hypothyroid symptoms as
thyroid resistance. Thyroid resistance
shares many of the same symptoms
as CFS, including headaches, anxiety,
fatigue, and recurring sore throats.
One postulated mechanism for thyroid hormone resistance found in WTS/
CFS might be due to a dysregulation in
the type I interferons (IFN-alpha/beta)
pathway. This results in a sustained
upregulation of 2’,5’-oligoadenylate synthetases (2-5 OAS). Patients
treated with IFN-alpha/beta therapy
SPRING 2009 usually complain of severe fatigue as
a limiting side effect, perhaps due to
the same effect. The 2-5 OAS, IFNalpha/beta instigates the expression
of three closely related proteins. The
amino acid sequences of the 2-5 OASL
proteins display 96% identity with the
partial sequence of the thyroid receptor
interacting protein (TRIP). It is hypothesized that the 2-5 OASL proteins
are TRIPs mechanism of suppressing
the TR transactivation and/or possibly
destroying the thyroid receptor by the
proteasome. This is perhaps how CFS /
WTS patients might have normal TSH
values yet have a clinical hypothyroid
state in CFS/WTS (24).
Another mechanism of thyroid
resistance found in CFS might be due
to a chronic consumptive coagulopathy,
which itself might be associated with
chronic infections, such as mycoplasmids, and other microbes. It is suggested that supraphysiological doses of
thyroid hormone or anticoagulants and
anti-infective agents might be effective
treatment options. Current research
has not found any clear association
between an infectious agent and CFS
(18). However, based on a multi-causal
model, it is possible that some infectious agent might be a contributory
cause for a certain subset of patients, or
that it might be a trigger for CFS even
after the infection is gone (25).
Immune system defect might be
involved in a certain amount of CFS
patients. There is evidence of inappropriate cytokine response (18). The
etiological cause is still not known.
However, it is hypothesized that it
might be due to decreased thyroid
function. Thyroid resistance has been
associated with increased infections,
such as chronic sore throats (26).
Stress stimulates the hypothalamicpituitary-adrenal axis, or HPA axis,
which leads to increased levels of
cortisol. Increased levels of cortisol
inhibit thyroid function (27). Some
CFS studies have found cortisol levels
to be lower than healthy controls (18).
However, since studies have not found
conclusively that cortisol replacement is
an effective treatment, cortisol deficiency as the main causative factor for CFS
does not seem promising. Low thyroid
function has been shown to affect cortisol levels (28). Some researchers have
found that hypothyroidism increases
cortisol levels and others have found
that it decreases cortisol levels (29).
In conclusion, CFS/WTS might
have a variety of causative factors that
compromise immune system by stress
or other insults that come from viruses,
bacteria, toxins, or other triggering
agents that upset the body’s normal
functioning. After the initial insult to
the body, CFS/WTS symptoms remain,
perhaps due to thyroid hormone resistance or peripheral thyroid hormone
conversion problems.
Regardless of the mechanism, WT3
therapy seems to restore metabolism to
the vast majority of patients.
SR-T3 (WT3) Protocol
In the clinical setting, T3 therapy
is not used to correct a measurable
thyroid hormone deficiency, but rather
to recalibrate metabolism and body
temperature patterns.
Dr. Wilson developed the SR-T3
treatment protocol over a 2-year period
via empirical observations of treating
patients with intractable fatigue. He
subsequently treated more than 5,000
people over a period of 4 years. The
Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome.
Currently there is an estimated 1,000
American doctors who use the therapy
for fatigue and other WTS symptoms.
Unique Features
The unique features of the Wilson
T3 (WT3) protocol that distinguish it
from conventional T3 therapy are that
ANTI-AGING MEDICAL NEWS
❘ 163
it uses a sustained release form of T3,
as opposed to Cytomel, and it is cyclic
in its administration, with the dose and
cycle-length adjusted according to patient symptomatic response (30). The
subjects are treated with liothyronine
compounded in a hydrophilic matrix
system, employing hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) formulated to
be taken every 12 hours. The liothyronine is synthetically made and does not
differ from any standard pharmaceutical preparation of T3, except that it is
compounded with the sustained release
agent methylcellulose. Clinical observation using SR-T3 shows that prolonged exposure to T3 changes patient
susceptibility to the drug, necessitating
alterations in dose. For example, the
first cycle of SR-T3 may require 90
mcg of T3 BID to obtain a normal temperature, while the second cycle may
require only 45 mcg of T3 to achieve
the same temperature. Body temperature is used in determining dosage and
cycle length.
The original protocol used liothyronine sodium (Cytomel), but undesirable side effects (e.g., irregular heartbeat and occasional atrial fibrillation)
prompted the exclusive use of SR-T3.
The SR-T3 produced fewer and milder
side effects.
However, a significant amount of
patients still suffer from some symptoms, including increased awareness of
heartbeats, heart palpitations, increased
heart rate, irritability, shakiness, fatigue,
and headaches. These effects are usually successfully treated with a “test
dose” of T4. A test dose of T4 is a small
dosage (.0125-.025 mg) of levothyroxine taken to dampen the effects of T3
therapy through competitive inhibition
of T3 by T4. T4 has 25% the potency
of T3, and administration of T4 usually
decreases or eliminates the side effects
of T3 therapy within 45 minutes.
The clinical experience of numerous
physicians suggests that T3 compounded in a hydrophilic matrix system (sustained release system) in capsules taken
every 12 hours provides a predictable,
well-tolerated means to influence body
temperature patterns and alleviate the
debilitating symptoms experienced
by WTS patients. Once symptoms
164 ❘
ANTI-AGING MEDICAL NEWS
improve or resolve, patients are able to
wean off SR-T3 therapy. Patients often
report no return of symptoms after
the treatment has been discontinued.
Some patients do relapse, but a very
short cycle of SR-T3 will usually bring
them back to normal.
Another important consideration
in the metabolic regulation related
to proper thyroid hormone function
is iodine consumption, absorption
and utilization. The main function
of iodine is the synthesis, storage and
secretion of thyroid hormone. Iodine
possesses wide antimicrobial functions
and adequate iodine levels are required
for proper immune function. Iodine is
also present in large amounts in other
tissues such as in the breast tissue,
salivary glands, brain and extracellular fluids. It is excreted in the urine.
Iodine deficiency should be evaluated to avoid secondary physiological
dysregulations and its associated risk
factors. If deficient, iodine supplementation is indicated. In addition, it
must be recognized that the cellular
transport mechanism for iodine can be
defective and it has been reported that
this problem can be corrected with the
administration of vitamin C (31).
Long-term Success
The use of T3 outside of the WT3
protocol has not been shown to normalize body temperature. Dr. Wilson’s
clinical experience indicates that longterm success in resetting metabolism and
alleviating symptoms using the cyclic-T3
therapy proposed for this study seems to
be related to holding body temperatures
close to 98.6o F for a specified period of
time. Patients whose body temperatures
have been successfully raised to or near
98.6o F show sustained positive responses
after the treatment is discontinued.
Patients whose oral temperatures are not
successfully raised to that level seem to
retain less benefit from the treatment.
It is known that exogenous T3 suppresses T4 levels due to negative feedback inhibition of TSH. It is speculated
that T4 suppression is an important
effect of the Wilson protocol that is essential to its effectiveness. Often more
than one cycle of SR-T3 therapy may be
needed to increase body temperature
to near-normal values. In many cases,
one or more cycles reaching a maximum dose of SR-T3 (90 mcg b.i.d.)
fails to raise the patient’s temperature
to normal. Then, the temperature may
reach normal on a subsequent cycle at a
lower dose. In such cases, we speculate
that greater T4 suppression is achieved
with each successive cycle until the
body temperature reaches normal. Serial measurements of serum free T4 may
help to elucidate this proposed mechanism.
It is speculated that T4 suppression
from repeated cycles of SR-T3 therapy
results in lower serum levels of T4 and
RT3, and therefore less competitive inhibition of T3. This suppression may increase from cycle to cycle, increasing T3
expression with each cycle. Increased
expression of T3 may result in greater
T4 suppression until body temperature
is finally normalized and the metabolism
is “re-calibrated.” Once temperature is
normalized, decreased SR-T3 is needed
on subsequent cycles to maintain
normal body temperature. Clinical
evidence thus far indicates that patients
can safely discontinue the sustainedrelease T3 therapy and maintain benefits
once oral body temperatures are held at
98.6o F for a specified period of time.
After the treatment is discontinued,
normally 3-6 months after initiation of
treatment, the majority of WTS patients
report significant and continued improvement in their symptoms. Many patients
experience complete resolution of their
WTS symptoms persisting years after
treatment has been discontinued. Based
on clinical observations, many patients
are completely freed of fatigue, depression, muscle aches and other complaints
related to WTS.
Clinical Studies
Most studies on thyroid hormone
supplementation have been done
using levothyroxine. There is current
controversy over the effects of thyroid
hormone supplementation on osteopenia. Most studies indicated no effect
(32-33) while one study of long term
suppressive dose of T4 did show an
increase in bone loss (16)
SPRING 2009
Clinical studies using supraphysiological doses of T3 ranging from
93.75 to 105 mcg daily in euthyroid
fibromyalgia, over an 8 month period
indicated no change in serum calcium and phosphorous, nor in bone
densitometry vs. placebo. However
there were higher levels of urinary N
telopeptides. Liver function tests were
no different vs. placebo at 4- month
follow-up, serum creatinine and calcium were also normal, indicating no
change in muscle mass. Mean heart
rate significantly increased from 68.5
bpm in placebo vs. 83.94 bpm in T3
patients during the study. No patients
developed tachycardia. There was
no significant difference in diastolic
or systolic blood pressure in T3 or
placebo group. Serial EKG indicated
no significance except that the placebo
QT intervals shortened within the normal range during T phases (34).
Adverse reactions to liothyronine sodium are generally due to therapeutic
over-dosage, and thus are characterized
by the typical symptoms of hyperthyroidism (e.g., tachycardia, irritability,
nervousness, and increased bowel
motility). In rare instances, allergic
skin reactions have been observed in
patients taking liothyronine sodium.u
