Cellular Toxicity


What is Cellular Toxicity?

Cellular toxicity is a reference to any cell state that is not conducive to healthy cell function typically caused by toxicity or substances toxic to cells and resulting in cell damage.

Cell Damage from Toxicity & Tissue Repair

Table of Contents

Content Source: National Library of Medicine

Introduction

Toxic damage to cells can cause individual cell death and if sufficient numbers of cells are lost, the result can be tissue or organ failure, ultimately leading to death of the organism. It is virtually impossible to separate a discussion of cellular toxicity and biochemical toxicity. Most observable cellular changes and cell death are due to specific biochemical changes within the cell or in the surrounding tissue. However, there are a few situations where a toxic chemical or physical agent can cause cell damage without actually affecting a specific chemical in the cell or its membrane. Physical agents such as heat and radiation may damage a cell by coagulating their contents (similar to cooking). In this case, there are no specific chemical interactions. Impaired nutrient supply (such as glucose and oxygen) may deprive the cell of essential materials needed for survival.

The majority of toxic effects, especially due to xenobiotics, are due to specific biochemical interactions without causing recognizable or obvious damage to a cell or its organelles.

Examples of this are:

  • Interference with a chemical that transmits a message across a neural synapse (for example, the inhibition of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase by organophosphate pesticides).
  • When one toxic chemical inhibits or replaces another essential chemical (for example, the replacement of oxygen on the hemoglobin molecule with carbon monoxide).

The human body is extremely complex. In addition to over 200 different cell types and about as many types of tissues, there are literally thousands of different biochemicals, which may act alone or in concert to keep the body functions operating correctly. To illustrate the cell and chemical toxicity of all tissues and organs would be impossible in this brief tutorial. Therefore, only a general overview of toxic effects will be presented along with some specific types of toxicity, for example, cancer and neurotoxicity. We have provided a few key references that can be studied for information on other organ toxic effects.

Figure 1 Figure 1

Some tissues have a great capacity for repair, such as most epithelial tissues. Others have limited or no capacity to regenerate and repair, such as nervous tissue. Most organs have a functional reserve capacity so that they can continue to perform their body function although perhaps in somewhat diminished ability. An example is that half of a persons liver can be damaged, and the body can regenerate sufficient new liver (or repair the damaged section by fibrous replacement) to maintain most of the capacity of the original liver. Another example is the hypertrophy, or increased growth of one organ to assume the capacity lost when the other kidney has been lost or surgically removed.

Toxic damage to cells and tissues can be transient and non-lethal or in severe situations, the damage may cause death of the cells or tissues. The diagram in Figure 1 illustrates the various effects that can occur with damage to cells. As can be seen, there are four main final endpoints to the cellular or biochemical toxicity:

  • The tissue may be completely repaired and return to normal
  • The tissue may be incompletely repaired but is capable of sustaining its function with reduced capacity
  • Death of the organism or the complete loss of a tissue or organ. In some instances, the organism can continue to live with the aid of medical treatment, e.g., replacement of insulin or by organ transplantations.
  • Neoplasm or cancers may result, many which will result in death of the organism and some, which may be cured by medical treatment.

Reversible Cell Damage

The response of cells to toxic injury may be transient and reversible once the stress has been removed or the compensatory cellular changes made. In some cases the full capability of the damaged cells returns. In other cases, a degree of permanent injury remains with a diminished cellular or tissue capacity. In addition to the adaptive cell changes discussed previously, two commonly encountered specific cell changes are associated with toxic exposures, cellular swelling and fatty change.

Cellular swelling (which is associated with hypertrophy) is due to cellular hypoxia, which damages the sodium-potassium membrane pump. This in turn changes the intracellular electrolyte balance with an influx of fluids into the cell, causing it to swell. Cell swelling is reversible when the cause has been eliminated.

Fatty change is more serious and occurs with severe cellular injury. In this situation, the cell has become damaged and is unable to adequately metabolize fat. The result is that small vacuoles of fat accumulate and become dispersed within the cytoplasm. While fatty change can occur in several organs, it is usually observed in the liver. This is because most fat is synthesized and metabolized in liver cells. Fatty change can be reversed but it is a much slower process than the reversal of cellular swelling.

[Top]

Lethal Injury (Cell Death)

In many situations, the damage to a cell may be so severe that the cell can not survive. Cell death occurs by two methods, necrosis and apoptosis.

Necrosis is a progressive failure of essential metabolic and structural cell components usually in the cytoplasm. Necrosis generally involves a group of contiguous cells or occurs at the tissue level. Such progressive deterioration in structure and function rapidly leads to cell death or "necrotic cells". Necrosis begins as a reduced production of cellular proteins, changes in electrolyte gradient, or loss of membrane integrity (especially increased membrane permeability). Cytoplasmic organelles (such as mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum) swell while others (especially ribosomes) disappear. This early phase progresses to fluid accumulation in the cells making them pale-staining or showing vacuoles, which is known to the pathologist as "cloudy swelling" or "hydropic degeneration". In some cells, they no longer can metabolize fatty acids so that lipids accumulate in the cytoplasmic vacuoles, referred to as "fatty accumulation" or "fatty degeneration". In the final stages of "cell dying", the nucleus becomes shrunken (pyknosis) or fragmented (karyorrhexis).

Apoptosis (referred to as "programmed cell death") is a process of self-destruction of the cell nucleus. Apoptosis is an individual or single cell death in that dying cells are not contiguous but are scattered throughout a tissue. Apoptosis is a normal process in cell turnover in that cells have a finite lifespan and spontaneously die. During embryonic development, certain cells are programmed to die and are not replaced, such as the cells between each developing finger. In this case, the programmed cells do not die; the fetus ends up with incomplete or fingers jointed together in a web fashion.

[Top]

In apoptosis, the cells shrink from decrease of cytosol in the nucleus. The organelles (other than nucleus) appear normal in apoptosis. The cell disintegrates into fragments referred to as "apoptotic bodies". These apoptotic bodies and the organelles are phagocytized by adjacent cells and local macrophages without initiation of an inflammatory response as is seen in necrosis. The cells undergo apoptosis and just appear to "fade away." Some toxicants induce apoptosis or in other cases they inhibit normal physiological apoptosis.

Figure 2: The gross appearance of a cirrhotic liver. The normal dark-red, glistening smooth appearance of the liver has been replaced with light, irregular fibrous scar tissue that permeates the entire liver.

Following necrosis, the tissue attempts to regenerate with the same type of cells that have died. When the injury is minimal, the tissue may effectively replace the damaged or lost cells. In severely damaged tissues or long-term chronic situations, the ability of the tissue to regenerate the same cell types and tissue structure may be exceeded, so that a different and imperfect repair occurs. An example of this is with chronic alcoholic damage to liver tissue in which the body can no longer replace hepatocytes with hepatocytes but rather connective tissue replacement occurs. Fibrocytes with collagen replace the hepatocytes and normal liver structure with scar tissue. The fibrotic scar tissue shores up the damage but it can not replace the function of the lost hepatic tissue. With constant fibrotic change, the liver function is continually diminished so that eventually the liver can no longer maintain homeostasis. This fibrotic replacement of the liver is known as "cirrhosis".

We have so far discussed primarily changes that individual cells. However, a tissue and an organ consists of different types of cells that work together to achieve a particular function. As with a football team, when one member falters, the others rally to compensate; so it is with a tissue. Damage to one cell type prompts reactions within the tissue to compensate for the injury. Within organs, there are two basic types of tissues, the parenchymal and stromal tissues. The parenchymal tissues contain the functional cells (e.g., squamous dermal cells, liver hepatocytes and pulmonary alveolar cells). The stromal cells are the supporting connective tissues (e.g., blood vessels and elastic fibers).

[Top]

Repair of injured cells can be accomplished by: (1) regeneration of the parenchymal cells; or (2) repair and replacement by the stromal connective tissue. The goal of the repair process is to fill the gap that results from the tissue damage and restore the structural continuity of the injured tissue. Normally a tissue attempts to regenerate the same cells that are damaged; however, in many cases, this can not be achieved so that replacement with a stromal connective tissue is the best means for achieving the structural continuity.

The ability to regenerate varies greatly with the type of parenchymal cell. The regenerating cells come from the proliferation of nearby parenchymal cells, which serve to replace the lost cells. Based on regenerating ability, there are three types of cells. With one type, it is a normal process for some cells to routinely divide and replace cells that have a limited lifespan (e.g., skin epithelial cells and hematopoietic stem cells). These are referred to as labile cells. Some other cells usually have a long lifespan with normally a low rate of division (stable cells). Stable cells can rapidly divide upon demand. The third category of cells is the permanent cells. They never divide and do not have the ability for replication even when stressed or some cells die.

Examples of these type cells are listed below:

[Top]

The labile cells have a great potential for regeneration by replication and repopulation with the same cell type so long as the supporting structure remains intact. Stabile cells can also respond and regenerate but to a lesser degree and are quite dependent on the supporting stromal framework. When the stromal framework is damaged, the regenerated parenchymal cells may be irregularly dispersed in the organ resulting in diminished organ function. The tissue response for the labile and stabile cells is initially hyperplasia until the organ function becomes normal again. When permanent cells die they are not replaced in kind but instead connective tissue (usually fibrous tissue) moves in to occupy the damaged area. This is a form of metaplasia.

Examples of replacement by metaplasia are:

  • Cirrhosis of the liver. Liver cells (hepatocytes) are replaced by bands of fibrous tissue, which can not carry out the metabolic functions of the liver.
  • Cardiac infarcts. Cardiac muscle cells do not regenerate and thus are replaced by fibrous connective tissue (scar). The scar can not transmit electrical impulses or participate in contraction of the heart.
  • Pulmonary fibrosis. Damaged or dead epithelial cells lining the pulmonary alveoli are replaced by fibrous tissue. Gases can not diffuse across the fibrous cells and thus gas exchange is drastically reduced in the lungs.

Allergy Free Health

Ever since I was a child, I have had allergies. I used to get allergy shots every 2-4 weeks and took numerous types of allergy medicines. This year my hay fever was much worse than in the past. In fact, there had been days when I was not able to stay outside because I was sneezing continuously, and my eyes were swollen. I have tried 3 different prescription allergy medicines and none of them have relieved all my symptoms.*

I finally decided to try Get Well’s Aller Well since I really liked the philosophy of the doctors that developed this product. Their idea to use herbs to support an allergy-free body instead of treating symptoms of allergies is a great idea. I really appreciate this herbal dietary supplement and have used it all season to support my health.*
- - Keli D., NY

I spent most of my life miserable during hay fever season with itchy nose and throat and really runny nose like if a faucet was turned on. A box of tissue was always near to me during that time of year. Outdoor activities between March and May were something I avoided. Cats and dogs also made my nose run and since I love pets, it was hard to be around them.*

The last 2 years have been very different. I learned that if I changed certain things in my life, I was better able to stay allergy free around pets and pollen. I no longer focus on treating my allergy symptoms, rather I work to keep my body from getting allergies in the first place. What worked for me to support my body in maintaining allergies free were things like removing or limiting the amount of processed sugar and wheat/gluten out of my diet, detoxifying my body on a regular basis, using hepa filters at home and taking Get Well’s Aller Well.*

From my experience, not only do I live allergy free, but my body overall is also much healthier as well. I have tried many other products from Get Well over the years and I have been totally satisfied with how effective they have been for me for supporting my health. Thanks to the helpful and knowledgeable staff at Get Well Natural!*

Blood & Platelet Health

My history involves a condition called idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and brings on bruising, petechiae and bleeding symptoms.*

Throughout my life, my platelet counts often fluctuated up and down. I spent much of my time worrying and going from doctor to doctor looking for answers. I did not want to go the splenectomy route since I had learned that the spleen is a very important organ to hang onto in eastern medicine philosophies. Thankfully, my doctor agreed with me and did not push me to have it removed.*

Eventually, one of my doctors recommended I investigate the Blood Well and Restore Immune II herbal formulas. I have taken these as well as many of your natural products.*

Thank you so much for making healthful products like these available. I am constantly telling all of my family and friends about Get Well Natural. My hope is that other people can experience these supportive formulas like I have. Thanks for everything,*
- - Julia L., CA

Dear Get Well Natural: In the past, due to my I.T.P., I had been on various medications wondering if my platelets would every rise. I have taken your products Calm Ezz, Blood Well and Restore Immune II since May 07 and I am very grateful to have found these products.*
- - Darlene - Cleveland, Ohio

Originally in October 2001 I was diagnosed with ITP; bruising and a very low platelet count. Then in November 2001 I had a splenectomy then everything fell apart and my platelets became extremely low; I was so beside myself in that the doctor did not seem to know much about ITP.*

So in January 2002 I found a great doctor to support me and I was put through 3 chemotherapies. After I recovered, my daughter searched the internet and found PDSA...and with the approval of my hematologist I began taking the ITP Combo from Get Well Natural.*

Currently (October 2008), I have been on both Blood Well and Restore Immune II for several years now. My hematologist was so amazed at how the herbal formulas support my body. At the age of 82, I know that I was blessed with a miracle for my daughter to find these herbs, and I will continue to take them for the rest of my life for continued support.*
- - Barbara W., Leawood, KS

Dear Staff, in my life I had a lot of ups and downs. My body ranged from healthy platelet levels to lowered levels. I first experienced platelet count issues during my first pregnancy. My doctors kept track of my platelets, which had dropped to 100k. My OB/GYN sent me to an Oncologist & I was told it was perfectly normal for a pregnant woman. At delivery I couldn't get an epidural because my platelets dropped to 86k. All seemed ok until about a week later when I started running a 103 fever. I went to our family doctor and he prescribed Augmentin (thought I had a uterine infection). Three days later they did an ultrasound & found placenta still left inside me so I was immediately scheduled for a DNC. The morning of my surgery my blood panel came back & my platelets were now at 1,000! It was touch & go for awhile, but after 6 pints of blood & 3 pints of platelets I was ok and released from the hospital with platelets at 168k.*

Doctors said that I either had an allergic reaction or it was just all the trauma from delivery, either way I was put on 80mg of Prednisone. In 3 weeks I had the "moon face", gained 17 lbs. & my platelets dropped back down to 11,000. I was then injected with Win-Rho (which did nothing to raise my platelets, only made me really sick!), had a bone marrow biopsy & my doctor was scheduling to have my spleen removed. I said "NO", I had had enough!*

My uncle told me about your website and I immediately ordered and started the Blood Well & Restore Immune II. I want to report to you that I am totally happy with these platelet health supporting products. I like the idea of using natural methods like stress reduction and natural dietary supplements to support my body’s natural ability to produce healthy platelets versus waiting for my platelets to go down and then having to take drugs like Prednisone. I've tried to tell my medical doctors that for me, supporting my body with healthy and natural products is a better choice for me, but they keep telling me that their drug and surgery recommendations are simply "protocol", and the only thing they are trained to provide. Thank you Get Well Natural, your natural herbs are a blessing!*
- - Sincerely, Alicia S., Kansas

"I was happy to get my order of Blood Well and Restore Immune II. I started to take them right away and I am glad I did. I really appreciate the time and knowledge you shared with me. I thank the lord for all the help your experienced staff have given me."*
- - Dolores S., Florida

Dear Get Well Natural: I write this communication to let individuals with various immune disorders know that Get Well Natural and staff are true professionals. They were the driving force of educating and helping me understand my situation. These products that Get Well Natural provides are the real deal. No gimmicks, no hype, just effective dietary supplements to support my body. I am glad that somehow God directed me to such men and women. Again, thanks to everyone. Each time I call for an order everyone is so cordial and it makes my day each time I talk to them.*
- - With Respect, William Shear, Ohio

After a scary dip in my platelets several years ago I was told by my doctor that I had something called Chronic ITP. I was given costly infusions of IVIG, and very little happened. I refused to go on any steroid therapy because of the side effects. I did my own research and came across this herbal website, and ordered the ITP Combo Pak (Blood Well & Restore Immune 2).*

At first I didn’t notice any difference from taking these supplements. But, I figured since they are natural herbs and designed to support my body’s healthy functions, I decided to stay on them longer. Well, it has been a couple years since I first took these herbal products from Get Well. I am very pleased with these platelet supportive products. My doctor, who at first was skeptical about me taking herbs, is now a believer.*

Over the last couple of years, the friendly folks at Get Well Natural have added, and subtracted certain herbs to my herbal health program, and have been very helpful with giving me information about what I'm taking. Coincidentally (or not) my elderly Mother was hospitalized and also diagnosed with ITP due to her shocking low platelet count numbers. She was put on 60mg of prednisone.*

Two months ago, I convinced her to try the herbal products to support her body’s health. Now, mom is also happy with her decision to give it a try. We are both very grateful to have found Get Well Natural and recommend them to others.*
- - Warmest Regards, Nick, P., Los Angeles, CA

In June 2005 our 2 ½ year old daughter was diagnosed with ITP. She had bruises everywhere and her count was 4K. After an immunoglobulin treatment they went up to 90K and stayed OK for 10 days, and then she was back down to 6K. We went on like this for another 6 months, treatment every 10 days to 2 weeks. We tried cortisone, Vinchristine and immunoglobulin—all these three combined, but it never lasted more than 3 weeks.*

We originally found out about Get Well Natural’s products in 2005. Our first product we gave her was the dietary supplement, "Blood Well Special". We can tell you that we are 100% grateful for this product and for the research that has been conducted by the doctors that developed this formula.*

Get Well Natural’s products have been a great addition in all our lives. We appreciate your company and product line and recommend this product to other parents who are looking to support their child’s body naturally.*
- - Louise S., France

My dog was diagnosed with ITP last October and has been on prednisone since. Only in very high doses did the steroids have an impact on her platelets; however every time we tried to wean her off her platelets would drop. We came across Blood Well Special and started her on that in January. We are now on our 3rd order of this Wonderful product and are totally happy with it. One day we hope her body will be totally healthy. This product is truly AWESOME.*

Women's & Female Health

Menopause is so miserable. My doctors and friends all believe that I am too young to go through menopause at 37. I have been having "hot flashes" in the a.m. and then a few times throughout the day as well, especially at night. It was disrupting and uncomfortable. I'm not fond of taking hormonal medications so I was left with little hope.*

Then my neighbor told me about Get Well Natural’s Female Well. I called your company and realized that there were herbs I could take as a dietary supplement to support the female body. I remember when you first told me about the Female Well product. Not surprising, I was very skeptical. I did not believe in herbs or their supportive qualities since I know nothing about herbs nor had ever taken any.*

But, then I thought, "Why not? What could it hurt?" So, I went into this "trial" with an open mind. Well here I am writing a testimonial to your company. I guess you can say I am a believer now in the power of herbs. I am completely amazed. I have now been on Female Well for over a month and I will definitely be a continual customer.*
- - Linda N., San Jose, CA

Heart & Cardiovascular Health

I strongly urge everyone to check out Get Well Natural’s Cardio Well and Cardio Well Classic products.*

I am 57 years old and several months ago, I had tightness in my chest after exercising for quite awhile. My business friend told me about Get Well so I decided to give them a call. I am very glad I did. Their helpful staff recommended I take Cardio Well Classic to support healthy cardiovascular function.*

I now understand how important it is to take natural dietary supplements to support my health rather than waiting for my body to warn me that something is wrong. My heart is just too important to not take care of. I can tell you that this herbal formula is truly fantastic!*
- - P.N., Granite Bay, CA

After being diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism and ITP, I was put on Prednisone for 8 months and my cholesterol shot up to 252. After this experience, I began to make my health more of a higher priority.*

I added your Cardio Well to my dietary supplement regiment and I am so glad I did.*

I prefer to support my body’s ability to have a healthy and normal cardiovascular system versus relying on taking harmful medications when my cholesterol spikes up. I recommend everyone try Cardio Well to help support their own healthy cholesterol levels wherever that might be. Thanks again for your help and I love your products.*
- - T.R., Las Vegas, NV

I am 71 years old and was experiencing high blood pressure 200/107. I did not want to take any drugs because of the side effects that have been reported. I decided to try Get Well’s products after a friend recommended that I look into them. They were so helpful in educating me about their herbs that I decided to try them. I like their products so much that I am now taking several of them to support my own body’s health potential. I feel so happy and thankful to have found these natural products.*
- - B.B., San Jose, CA

After my husband had open heart surgery he was still experiencing high blood pressure. One of my friends suggested that he and I investigate further and checkout a website from Get Well. They have an herbal formula called CARDIO WELL CLASSIC, which supports healthy blood pressure. We are both elated to have found this product and have referred others to try it.*
- - Sincerely, J.D., CA

Kidney Health

Today, when I went in to see my doctor, he let me know that I was healthy and told me to continue doing whatever I was doing. Well I’ve been on Kidney Well 2 and Alisma and I really like these products. Now he just wants me to lose some weight. I recommend anyone interested in supporting healthy kidney function to try both Kidney Well 2 and Alisma.*
- - S.K., VA

After 22 years, my transplanted kidney was showing a serious weakness and it looked as if it was coming to an end, despite a stiff diet and medical precautions. Also, I had developed a serious case of proteinuria which was getting worse by the week. I decided to try Get Well Natural’s combination of Kidney Well 2 and Phyto Antioxidants. I am very pleased with these products and have added them to my daily health protocol along with eating a healthy diet. Thank you so much for making these kidney supportive products available.*
- - Rui Moreira, Portugal - 2008

From December 2000 to the present date my husband Johnny began his journey with hitting his toe going up stairs, which transitioned into gout, then numerous doctors and multiple challenging and changing health conditions along the way; the last being Glomerulonephritis where many drugs were given and side effects experienced.*

In the end, trying both acupuncture and Get Well Natural’s herbal formulas have been the best thing for my Johnny. We really took responsibility for my husband’s health and I personally felt very proud when the last renal specialist said to us, "Whatever you are taking, keep taking it," and he wanted me to give him the information about your supplements, which I did. God Bless You All.*
- - D.P. Australia

I was concerned about maintaining healthy creatinine levels in my body. I decided to give myself your Alisma herbal extract along with the Kidney Well II herbal product. I really believe in the idea of supporting healthy levels rather than waiting till they are unhealthy. Your products are a god-send. Thank you!*
- - L.H., WI

Liver Health

Over the years I have used many of Get Well’s products to support my body’s health. According to my western doctors, who are all great as well, they keep telling me “whatever you are doing, just keep doing it”. Unfortunately, most are too busy to investigate herbs in general, nor do they understand them. Thanks again to everyone at Get Well Natural.*
- - Douglas, San Diego, CA

Lung Health

In the past, my wife has received treatment for asthma-symptoms, lung infections and severe nasal blockage many times over the last 5 years. You can say we have a lot of experience with the respiratory system in general.*

Her condition worsened last summer and she was on a total of seven medications including 2 types of inhalers. I was forced to stand helpless and watch her struggle for her breathing to return.*

Last month she began taking dietary supplements from Get Well Natural like their Breathe Well product. Both of us are very pleased we decided to try your products. They are definitely one of the best natural products we have ever tried and I want to personally thank you for making these available to my wife!*
- - Richard D., San Jose, CA

Prostate Health

My name is Will. I am 67 years old. I live in Phoenix Arizona. I was getting up every 10 or 15 minutes at night to urinate; when I did get up to urinate I would usually just get a few drops, instead of a stream of urine. Even though I have no cancer after a biopsy test, my PSA test was still high at 21. The doctor said I just had a swollen prostate.*

The only thing they suggested was that I could have surgery that would cut and remove some of the prostate, and I decided against that. I decided to look for something natural that could be taken daily to support my prostate function.*

I was recommended to call Get Well and ask them about their Healthy Prostate & Ovary herbal formula to support healthy prostate function. I have now used this natural dietary supplement for about four months. It is so nice to know that there are great products like this available and I will continue taking this supplement for years to come.*
- - Will Swanson., AZ

In the past when I had a problem with my prostate, I first began using saw palmetto; however, it did not work for me. I repeatedly found myself in the bathroom 4 or 5 times a night and my elimination flow was a dribble. I was told that Get Well Natural, LLC sold an herbal formula that might offer the support I was looking for.*

So I gave them a call. I now have been taking Get Well’s Healthy Prostate & Ovary for three months. I am very satisfied with these herbs and will definitely tell others about it.*
- - S.S., NM

My friend told me about a company called Get Well Natural, LLC. I called them and began taking their herbal formula Healthy Prostate & Ovary immediately. I was so pleasantly surprised with this product. Thank you Get Well for supplying your incredible formula to Me.*
- - M.A., Canada

Stress Management

I have been feeling quite anxious and stressed over the last year and I decided to look on the internet to see if I could find help. I came across Get Well’s website. They have a product called Calm Ezz which to my surprise really helped to support my healthy state of mind without any side effects of sleepiness or fatigue. Calm Ezz is an awesome product. I love feeling more normal and overall happier as well as being able to work throughout the day in a more stress-free manner. Thanks a million.*
