I regularly give blood when I can (every 3 months). Question is how long after taking c60 does the c60 remain in the blood or plasma?

 

I usually take the entire bottle of Vaughter Wellness once a month (45mg c60 in 50ml). I like to pour it out in a clear glass first to check out the nice colour and if any black flecks floating around.

 

Does C60 change the colour of blood plasma? I know if women are on the pill while giving blood it can turn their plasma a bright green colour.... What colour could c60 change it to?

I remember when I was selling my plasma to help support entertainment objectives in college that one of the phlebotomists commented that I must be taking BC.  When I inquired why she made the comment she stated that the color of the donor plasma for individuals on BC is slightly different.   I personally didn't notice much a difference between all the variations of yellow that I saw when I was there.

 

I can definitely state it wasn't a blazing green color!!  :)

I am going to give blood this Friday. I had just under 45mg C60 in 50ml olive oil at the beginning of this month. I'll take another bottle in the hours before the blood donation. The anecdotes in that other thread suggested the blood was a more brighter colour and to the point they thought they had got the artery, so visually noticeable. If taking almost 90mg of C60 (45mg of that in the hours before) within the month still has my blood a dark red (normal) colour, then I guess this particular anecdote is not true in my case.

 

Does anyone know what would be the best time to take the c60 before the donation? 1 hour before? Or 4, 6 or 12? How long does c60 in olive oil take to get in the blood and then how long does it hang around the blood before it goes off to wherever. I plan to take on an empty stomach (will need to wash my mouth out to get rid of that horrible burn and aftertaste though) and I want the c60 in the blood as it's donated.

 

On another question.... Has anyone added c60 to actual blood to see if it changes the colour? Those who have dry c60 could try adding a small amount into a vial of blood, allow it to clot and see if there is any effect on the plasma colour.

 

After this, in the next month, I plan to take it as recommended. The addage, 'the dose makes the poison' is coming to mind.... :)

If you were to ask the blood donation people if it was ok that you dosed yourself with an experimental compound just before donation, I bet they'd tell you that they couldn't use your blood.   A lot of people who need a transfusion might be better off if they get some c60oo in the bargain, but some of them might be worse off.  Maybe a lot worse.  I would worry about how it might interact with chemotherapy agents, for example.

How much real world damage could they be in for if c60 in a blood transfusion was combined with chemotherapy drugs? I read an article that goes a bit beyond my understanding but I gather it increases the ability for the drug to kill cells (both good and tumour affected) Is that right? That study used c60 in water and in this abstract doesn't seem clear as to the route of c60 exposure eg oral, injected i.p i.v or s.c.

 

And then there is the 'second hand' method where one person takes something orally and then a part of the blood from that person then put in another person as a method of administration.

 

 

 

 

C60(Nd) nanoparticles enhance chemotherapeutic susceptibility of cancer cells by modulation of autophagy.
Abstract

Autophagy, an evolutionally conserved intracellular process degrading cytoplasmic proteins and organelles for recycling, has become one of the most remarkable strategies applied in cancer research. The fullerene C60 nanoparticle (nC60) has been shown to induce autophagy and sensitize chemotherapeutic killing of cancer cells, but the details still remain unknown. Here we show that a water-dispersed nanoparticle solution of derivatized fullerene C60, C60(Nd) nanoparticles (nC60(Nd)), has greater potential in inducing autophagy and sensitizing chemotherapeutic killing of both normal and drug-resistant cancer cells than nC60 does in an autophagy-dependent fashion. Additionally we further demonstrated that autophagy induced by nC60/C60(Nd) and Rapamycin had completely different roles in cancer chemotherapy. Our results, for the first time, revealed a novel and more potent derivative of the C60 nanoparticle in enhancing the cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic agents and reducing drug resistance through autophagy modulation, which may ultimately lead to novel therapeutic strategies in cancer therapy.

The language doesn't seem to advise caution rather that it looks like a new and exciting way to deal with cancer. But would this mean that if someone was on chemotherapy drugs and supplemented on c60, they would require less chemotherapy to do the job and that their 'normal' dose when not on c60 is now an 'overdose' when on c60?

 

The guidelines on donation eligibility look pretty strict but also 'lax'. If I needed blood, I could end up with someone who has derivitives of a cocktail of medications for depression, blood pressure, hormones, aspirin etc. Maybe he/she is very unhealthy and has a diet loaded with transfats. The same person could be a chain smoker and had a bit to drink the night before (but not enough to look drunk at time of donation) and despite all this in the end, it would still save my life but if I could 'choose' I wouldn't choose from that particular donor.

 

Also if I was megadosing supplements like fish oil, maybe I shouldn't donate also because of blood thinning and the recipent could be someone on warfarin?

 

If I told the guys that I take Chlorella and Spirulina would they not want my blood also? Its an algae, 'maybe' not clean and 'could' have side effects in someone else.

 

So much of my diet is 'experimenting' with my own health. Yes I do want to see if c60 has a visual effect on the blood though, so I asked if anyone out there has added any to a vial of blood??

If people smoke, drink, or eat french fries, you won't get enough toxins in a pint of their blood to do much harm.  Most pharmaceuticals would be similar, though some are screened for because they could cause problems in recipients.  If you dose 45mg the right amount of time before donating, the pint they take from you could have a couple milligrams of c60oo on board.  That would be enough to constitute a normal dose for the recipient.  Some recipients might be better off getting some c60oo, but like I said above, I worry about interactions with some compounds like chemo drugs.  That c60Nd is an unusual case with a metal atom in the cage.  The compund that we're using is very different, and is a potent antioxidant.  Since some chemo drugs kill cells by oxidative overload, that could be a problem

 

It would be better to get an insulin syringe and do a couple venous draws to check the color of venous blood.
