Shocking: Neurologist Exposes 'Brain Death' Myth behind Multi-Billion-Dollar Organ Transplant Industry"Medical doctors are not taught to give thyroid hormones or adrenal hormones; sometimes they are not even taught to give ADH. Doctors sometimes say this is happening 'because the brain is dying.' But, actually, the brain is dying because they're not replacing those thyroid hormones. If doctors would replace these three types of hormones, the normal circulation to the brain would be restored and the hypothalamus will restart producing normal amounts of all those hormones." -Doctor Cicero G. Coimbra, MD PhD
Doctor Cicero G. Coimbra, MD PhD, a neurologist and professor of neuroscience at the Federal University of São Paulo, Brazil, has also said recovery for comatose patients is often possible, but a tightly controlled medical establishment is not giving doctors and medical students the facts they need to "do the best they can" for their patients. LifeSite sat down with Dr. Coimbra for an in-depth interview in Rome, during a May 20-21 conference on "Brain Death": A Medicolegal Construct: Scientific & Philosophical Evidence, sponsored by the John Paul Academy for Human Life and Family. In this interview (read full text below), Dr. Coimbra explains that the term "brain death" was coined in the 1960s, after the first successful human heart transplant "triggered a demand for transplantable vital organs to be harvested from patients" who were considered to be "hopelessly comatose" according to medical knowledge at that time. There was "no preliminary scientific research" on the brain-death concept before the name was used, he said. But calling these patients "dead" enabled the medical community to overcome all of the legal hurdles associated with removing vital organs from these comatose patients. Their main mistake, Dr. Coimbra argues, was to consider these patients "irreversibly" brain damaged. By the 1980s, when organ transplants were performed around the world, medical researchers experimenting on animals discovered that when blood flow to the brain is reduced from the normal range to just 20-50 percent, the brain would "fall silent"—but was neither "dead" nor "irreversibly damaged." By the end of the 1990s, this phenomenon—called "ischemic penumbra"—was demonstrated in humans, shattering the "brain death" myth. The brain is silent but not dead, he said. "Why is the 'brain death' theory still so prevalent, and what are students in medical school being taught about this?" LifeSite asked Dr. Coimbra. The Brazilian neurologist explained that while medical students might hear about this if "information is provided to the general public," they will not learn it in medical school. "In medical schools, these concepts that I am telling you about—although they are published—are not available in medical textbooks. They are not available in medical meetings. In medical conferences you cannot find them," he said, adding that information is being withheld to supply the organ donation industry. If you speak to doctors one-on-one, they will often tell you they agree, Dr. Coimbra said, but "they don't want to mess with the transplant system," which has one of the most "well controlled systems" of information sharing in the world. "The transplant system is a wealthy system; it is a powerful system," Dr. Coimbra said. "They are everywhere in the medical community. They are in medical councils and medical academies; they are everywhere ... Politically, they are very powerful." "In the United States alone, in 2016 the transplant system involved business to the tune of approximately 25 billion dollars," he noted. "By 2025, it is expected to reach 51 billion dollars per year." It is "big business," he said... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here Continue reading here.
