ALS Part 2: The “roll” of body fat, serum lipids, and environmental toxins as viewed through a health model lens

H.L. “Sam” Queen, D.Sc. (hon.), MT(ASCP), M.A., B.A., C.N.S., C.C.N. Sam is the founder and Director of Research for the Institute for Health Realities, a Colorado corporation; and founder of Designed2Win, Celebration, FL. Sam, through his work as an investigative medical researcher, certified nutrition specialist, and registered medical laboratory technologist, and with 30 years as research consultant to H.B. Wallace and the Wallace Research Foundation – which provided research grants annually toward gaining answers to applied health – has developed the first objectively measured Human Health Model. Based on this model of health involving seven subclinical health markers of homeostasis, he has developed a highly effective means of helping doctors get at the underlying cause of disease while assisting people to reach the highest levels of health possible for them. Sam’s interest in ALS is longstanding. H.B. Wallace was the son of H.A. Wallace, a Vice President of the United States under Franklin Delano Roosevelt; H.A. Wallace went on to die from ALS after leaving the White House. H.B. Wallace and Sam, through a Dr. B. M. Patten, Department of Neurology, Baylor College of Medicine, were able to get some important research performed on the role of mercury in ALS onset. The results of mercury playing a causal role were somewhat inconclusive but none-the-less suspicious. Sam is the author of the first medical reference book on Chronic Mercury Toxicity and Intravenous Vitamin C.
