SPC Andrew Halttunen, a trained dental laboratory technician (68EN5), recently began working on a blood platelet protocol that involves freeze drying blood platelets. More than 35 percent of donated blood platelets -- used to stem internal bleeding and clot the blood of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy -- come from out of state because people in Los Angeles are too busy to give the Vampire an hour. After drinking about two cups of grape juice per day for two weeks, study subjects' blood showed 13 percent higher levels of vitamin E, 50 percent higher levels of total antioxidants, and significantly lower levels of blood platelet activity. |
