a qualitative and persistent excess of potassium (as much as 60 percent, along with an equivalent excess in red blood cells and a deficiency in blood serum)

a qualitative and persistent deficiency of magnesium (inhibiting the nonspecific properdin defense system)

a qualitative and persistent deficiency of manganese, and so forth.

“Researchers from the United States and France, writing in the Journal of Biological Chemistry, announced in August that aspirin given to plants blocks ‘pain’ receptors in much the same way that it blocks them in animals. However, blocking such receptors in plants is also harmful to neighboring plants, as it suppresses a distress signal that causes them to produce a defensive, sour-tasting chemical to ward off preying insects.”

Dr. David Williams (Alternative Health Journal) wrote …

“Taking aspirin daily actually increases the risk of heart attack and stroke for 40% of people. Aspirin causes stomach and intestinal bleeding, too. But the nastiest result is blindness through macular degeneration.”

Salicylates are anti-inflammatory COPPER-BINDING agents.

Insert an iron atom in the middle, and the original purple porphyrin turns red and becomes a metalloporphyrin called iron porphyrin, otherwise known as hemoglobin.

Insert a magnesium atom in the middle, and purple porphyrin turns green and becomes magnesium porphyrin, otherwise known as chlorophyll.

Insert a COPPER atom in the middle, and purple porphyrin turns blue and becomes copper porphyrin, a copper-centered hemoglobin found in certain marine animals, e.g. crabs and lobsters.

Metal-free porphyrin is photoreactive, and can cause porphyria in susceptible individuals.
