    This WisdomCard managed by: Mia Tagala Cystic Fibrosis is an inherited disease of the mucus and sweat glands. CF causes your mucus to be thick and sticky. The mucus clogs the lungs, causing breathing problems and making it easy for bacteria to grow. This can lead to problems such as repeated lung infections and lung damage. The average life expectancy is around 36.8 years.

    Cystic fibrosis
    In its most common form, a single amino acid mutation leads to the production of an abnormal protein (CFTR = cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) important in transporting chloride ions across epithelial cells found in the lung and intestinal tract. Since water follows ions by osmosis, this results in water depleted and viscous mucus.
    Symptoms of cystic fibrosis
    The symptoms usually develop during early childhood. Both lungs and pancreas produce abnormally viscous mucus. The mucus in the lungs can become a growth medium for bacteria, resulting in chronic respiratory infections and eventual permanent damage to the lung tissue. As lung function deteriorates, CF patients develop pulmonary hypertension and eventually cor pulmonale. In addition to frequent pulmonary infections, persons with CF also have problems absorbing fat soluble vitamins. They also are lacking in pancreatic enzymes. They therefore need to be supplemented with vitamins A, D, E, and K as well as pancrease enzyme. Cystic Fibrosis also causes a defect in the vas deferens causing sterility in approximately 98% of males with the disease.

Even with treatment, most patients do not live to the age of 40 Treatments Treatment of symptoms, treatment of infections , physical therapy Show Information [Source] Cystic fibrosis is a serious genetic disease that occurs in about one of about every 4,000 births. It is caused by a faulty gene that regulates ion flow in several semi-permeous tissues in the body, such as the lungs sinuses and intestines . The faulty gene must be inherited from both parents and a single faulty gene will not cause any symptoms. Fibrosis patients suffer from numerous disorders of the lungs and digestive tract . Primary among these is inflammation of the lungs which results in large amounts of thick mucous which both interferes with air flow and provides a breeding ground for infection. As such, they frequently suffer from bouts of pneumonia and often have to be given antibiotics at the first sign of infection.

    Cross Reference List of CAFL Frequencies The CAFL Cross Reference (CAFL XREF) is a compilation of all the conditions in the Consolidated Annotated Frequency List indexed by frequency. It has limited utility for the most popular frequencies such as 20, 728, 800, 880, 1550, and 10000 since so many conditions are listed, but it can be helpful when running scans and sweeps to possibly indicate frequency sets which may be useful as well as sometimes identify commonality of the causative pathogens of various diseases. The original cross reference list of the CAFL was produced by Stone Circle Alternatives in the late 1990s. Now, after almost 10 years, a new cross reference list has been produced. Many thanks to Lee George for his help on this project. The CAFL XREF is included in the third edition of the Electroherbalism Frequency Lists , shown at right. CAFL XREF

    Jump to: navigation search Cystic fibrosis (also known as CF) is a common heriditary disease that affects the whole body, causing gradually worsening disability and early death. Breathing difficulties are the most common symptom and are a result of frequent lung infections. These are treated, though not always cured, by antibiotics and other medications. CF is a multi-system disorder of the exocrine glands causing a thick mucus substance to form. This affects the lungs intestines pancreas , and liver . The standard test for diagnosis is a sweat test which evaluates the level of chloride excreted by the body. A large number of symptoms, including sinus infections, poor growth, diarrhea and infertility, result from the effects of CF on other parts of the body. CF is one of the most common fatal inherited diseases. It is most common among Caucasians and Ashkenazi Jews ; one in 25 people of European descent carries one gene for CF, making it the most common genetic disease among them. People with cystic fibrosis can be diagnosed before birth by genetic testing or in early childhood by a sweat test. There is no cure for CF, and the current

    What is Cystic Fibrosis?
    Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disorder that affects many organs in the body, including the lungs, liver, pancreas, and reproductive system. Under normal circumstances, cells in these organs normally produce mucus and other watery secretions. In cystic fibrosis, these cells produce secretions that are thicker than normal, causing disruptions in the body's water balance and other problems. For example, in the lungs, thickened secretions trap germs, causing repeated lung infections. In the pancreas, thickened secretions block the normal flow of pancreatic juices, making it more difficult for the body to digest and absorb fats. This can result in nutritional problems, especially in babies. For information on symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment click here For updates on this topic, click to subscribe:
