ABOUT THE CELLULAR MATRIXSTUDY

Patrick McGean

Director of The Cellular Matrix Study

In 1999 Mr. Patrick McGean’s son was diagnosed with germ cell testicular cancer. He had multiple surgeries, cisplatin chemotherapy, and finally an auto globus stem cell transplant. Following the transplant, his oncologists declared that the treatment was unsuccessful and that he had a 3% chance of survival for the next few years. The Live Blood Study was begun with this information and the introduction to sulfur was by accident. With an intimate knowledge of blood and the cardiovascular system from the 70s, it made sense to establish a way to monitor the blood photographically in hopes of being able to visualize changes that could be used to monitor the health of the participants. The blood vessels of the conjunctiva and the blood cells contained within became the model and various forms of microscopes were utilized to view the vessels and the blood. Following a great deal of online research into sulfur and the cardiovascular system, we realized that the cell matrix visible in the face could be a more valuable way to establish cellular regeneration from those too far away to be subjected to having a microscope stuck into their eyes.

The Study has grown not only in numbers in the US but also worldwide with this change in modality. The body human is reported to regenerate all of its cells every 7 years and we hope to visualize this regeneration with digital photos which can be “magnified” to demonstrate the cells and the matrix in which they work. The human face may be a more demonstrable area for the body than foot reflexology or even iridology being that all of the cervical nerves are active and both cranial and general vascular activity can be visualized.
