ABSTRACT:
A maintenance regimen with controlled intake of particular vitamin, mineral, and micronutrient formulations, drastically reduces the incidence and severity of sickle cell disease crises. The formulations include vitamin A, vitamin B-1, vitamin B-2, vitamin B-6, vitamin B-12, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, niacinamide, para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), pantothenic acid, choline bitartrate, inositol, rutin, citrus bioflavonoid complex, betaine hydrochloride, hesperidin complex, folic acid, biotin, calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, potassium, manganese, iodine, chromium, selenium, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, provided at or just below critical saturation levels, determined for each individual by carefully monitoring tolerance on titration. The daily dose may exceed that necessary as dietary or nutritional supplements, and trigger an increase in the production of viable hemoglobin, and alters the overall blood profile. Platelet concentration is increased up to twice that of seen in normal blood, and the red blood cells produced display increased resistance to sickling. This enhanced biosynthesis is achieved by providing sufficient stores of precursors that stimulate low level manufacture without substantial feedback control by the upper central nervous system.
