Asterisked entries (*) refer to a definition provided in the appended glossary.
The reason garlic* is so toxic, the sulphone* hydroxyl* ion penetrates
the blood-brain barrier, just like DMSO [a sulfoxide*], and is a
specific poison for higher-life forms and brain cells. We discovered
this, much to our horror, when I (Bob Beck, DSc) was the world's
largest manufacturer of ethical EEG [electroencephalography*] feedback
equipment.
We'd have people come back from lunch that looked clinically dead on
an encephalograph, which we used to calibrate their progress. "Well,
what happened?" "Well, I went to an Italian restaurant and there was
some garlic in my salad dressing!" So we had them sign things that
they wouldn't touch garlic before classes or we were wasting their
time, their money and my time.
I guess some of you ... are pilots or have been in flight tests... I
was in flight test engineering in Doc Hallan's group in the 1950s. The
flight surgeon would come around every month and remind all of us:
"Don't you dare touch any garlic 72 hours before you fly one of our
airplanes, because it'll double or triple your reaction time. You're
three times slower than you would be if you'd not had a few drops of
garlic."
Well, we didn't know why for 20 years later, until I owned the
Alpha-Metrics Corporation. We were building biofeedback equipment and
found out that garlic usually desynchronises your brain waves.
So I funded a study at Stanford and, sure enough, they found that it's
a poison. You can rub a clove of garlic on your foot - you can smell
it shortly later on your wrists. So it penetrates the body. This is
why DMSO smells a lot like garlic: that sulphone hydroxyl ion
penetrates all the barriers including the corpus callosum* in the
brain.
Any of you who are organic gardeners know that if you don't want to
use DDT, garlic will kill anything in the way of insects.
Now, most people have heard most of their lives garlic is good for
you, and we put those people in the same class of ignorance as the
mothers who at the turn of the century would buy morphine sulphate in
the drugstore and give it to their babies to put 'em to sleep.
If you have any patients who have low-grade headaches or attention
deficit disorder [ADD], they can't quite focus on the computer in the
afternoon, just do an experiment - you owe it to yourselves. Take
these people off garlic and see how much better they get, very very
shortly.
And then let them eat a little garlic after about three weeks. They'll
say "My God, I had no idea that this was the cause of our problems."
And this includes the de-skunked garlics, Kyolic, some of the other
products.
Very unpopular, but I've got to tell you the truth.
Garlic can affect the mind and concentration. Do not eat it if
performing activities requiring concentration and mental acuity.
People who have an angry temperament or reddish complexion should use
garlic cautiously.

Corpus callosum
A broad band of nerve fibers joining the two hemispheres of the brain.
Electroencephalography
Technique for recording and interpreting the electrical activity of
the brain. The nerve cells of the brain generate electrical impulses
that fluctuate rhythmically in distinct patterns. In 1929 Hans Berger
of Germany developed an electroencephalograph, an instrument that
measures and records these brain wave patterns. The recording produced
by such an instrument is called an electroencephalogram, commonly
abbreviated EEG.
To make an EEG, electrodes are placed in pairs on the scalp. Each pair
of electrodes transmits a signal to one of several recording channels
of the electroencephalograph. This signal consists of the difference
in the voltage between the pair. The rhythmic fluctuation of this
potential difference is shown as peaks and troughs on a line graph by
the recording channel. The EEG of a normal adult in a fully conscious
but relaxed state is made up of regularly recurring oscillating waves
known as alpha waves. When a person is excited or startled, the alpha
waves are replaced by low-voltage, rapid, irregular waves. During
sleep, the brain waves become extremely slow. Such is also the case
when a person is in a deep coma. Other abnormal conditions are
associated with particular EEG patterns. Irregular slow waves known as
delta waves, for example, arise from the vicinity of a localized area
of brain damage.
Electroencephalography provides a means of studying how the brain
works and of tracing connections between one part of the central
nervous system and another. Its effectiveness as a research tool,
however, is limited because it records only a small sample of
electrical activity from the surface of the brain. Many of the more
complex functions of the brain, such as those that underlie emotions
and thought, cannot be related closely to EEG patterns.
Electroencephalography has proved more useful as a diagnostic aid in
cases of serious head injuries, brain tumours, cerebral infections,
epilepsy, and various degenerative diseases of the nervous system.
Garlic
(Species Allium sativum) contains about 0.1 percent essential oil, the
principal components of which are diallyl disulfide, diallyl
trisulfide, and allyl propyl disulfide.
Hydroxyl
Of or denoting the radical -OH, present in alcohols and many other
organic compounds: a hydroxyl group.
Sulfoxide
Also called SULPHOXIDE, any of a class of organic compounds containing
sulfur and oxygen and having the general formula (RR') SO, in which R
and R' are a grouping of carbon and hydrogen atoms. The sulfoxides are
good solvents for salts and polar compounds.
The best-known sulfoxide is dimethyl (or methyl) sulfoxide (DMSO),
which is prepared by aerial oxidation of dimethyl sulfide (a
by-product of paper manufacture) in the presence of nitrogen dioxide.
DMSO is used as a solvent in a wide variety of industrial processes,
including the manufacture of polyacrylonitrile fibres, the extraction
of aromatic hydrocarbons from refinery streams, the manufacture of
certain pesticides, for industrial cleaning, and for paint stripping.
It is also used as a solvent for drugs and antitoxins applied
topically. The last use is based on its remarkable ability to
penetrate animal tissues.
Dimethyl sulfoxide is a colourless and odourless liquid, boiling at
189 C (372 F). It is miscible in all proportions with water, alcohol,
and most organic solvents.
Sulphone (US sulfone)
An organic compound containing a sulphonyl group linking two organic groups
Who is Dr. Robert C. Back who got this investigation done ?
Robert C. Beck D.Sc.
Summary of major accomplishments:
• Established a prominent career as a physicist.
• Invented the modern low-voltage camera flash using a xenon gas tube.
• Developed an advanced electroencephalograph, used for measuring
brain wave activity.
• Honored for pioneering the creation of the brain tuner, a frequency
emitting device.
• Duplicated the mechanism of action of a patented scientific
discovery, in a non-invasive format.
• Created a systemic protocol involving microcurrent technology.
• Freely publicized the information on how to utilize these methods in
his official lecture.
Dr. Beck built a career as a prominent physicist, he was born on
January 22, 1925 in Texas and had a prolific interest in electronics
starting from a young age. He demonstrated this by always being
involved with electronics, building transistor radios for his friends
in the neighborhood. After spending alot of time working at a
photography studio and dabbling in photography as a profession he
discovered a way to produce light from a xenon gas tube. With it he
managed to create the modern day camera flash.
At the time it was a great advancement in technology and enabled the
camera flash to become more compact than the bulky flash mounts that
had to be lugged around by photographers during that era. This one
example of advancement through innovation is a trait that Dr. Beck
carried with him throughout his life, and allowed him to look at
things in a way to enhance or improve them.
His professional resume entails working for U.S. governement agencies,
specializing in the measurement and reading of ultra-low frequencies
suspected as a means of mind-related phenomenon in humans. This led
him to the development of an advanced electroencephalograph (EEG)
system that enabled researchers to be able to attain more detailed
information about the workings of neurological activity in the human
brain.
