    @sunsunsun said in WICKED SORE THROAT + I got the FLU ----- HELP ------: @Kilgore side question, did u get emotionally disturbed , in an argument, or focus on negative stuff before u got ill? Since you mention this I have to relate that I was in a bad mood about something or other one of the second to last time I was sick a month ago. I was almost expecting to get sick because my irritation and anger was increasing just a few days before I felt the first symptoms, as well as feeling achey and tired. I find it interesting. I don't think the negative emotions were causing the sickness, I think the sickness was bringing out negative emotions. Partly I think getting fatigued and feeling tired and achey makes work and interaction very miserable, so that saps you. By now I feel like my energy has just been sapped by repeated colds / flu and isn't rebounding strongly.

    @cupofcoffee are you sure? Citrulline and arginine and beetroot boost all NO including iNOS which is what RP was against, meanwhile tadalafil boosts only eNOS (and maybe nNOS?)

    @Mossy, my apologies for such a late reply. If you’ve ever used buttermilk in pancakes, strained yogurt is similar in that it makes pancakes extra fluffy from the acid reacting to the baking powder. It’s too bad about the Heal All and other supplements, but my hope is that you become so healthy you won’t need them, anyway. I dream of the day when I no longer need thyroid. Yeah, the water element seems challenging. My balance is good from my years as a flyer/cheerleader and dancer, but I can easily see myself getting pummeled by a wave and almost drowning. Funny, I grew up near a farm that had peacocks. I find their posturing hilarious, but they wear rockstar well with all that colorful plumage. Can I hire you as my dad’s personal chef? He’d eat a cocoon cinnamon roll so no worries about poor instructions. Kidding aside, how frustrating. I’ve come across quite a few recipes online that have had numerous revisions. Thankfully, most have had reviews so I’ve been able to tweak the recipes beforehand. I understand. I ate quite a bit of millet the many years I was vegan, and out of all the grains it’s probably my favorite. The sprouted flour company I posted has heritage grains, including the variety of wheat you’re currently using, but I would pick whichever variety was grown in highly mineralized soil because it will be the most nutritious, IMO, regardless if its ancient or not. Same when it comes to organic vs conventional. I learned while following RBTI that Brix matters most because higher Brix, i.e., higher sugar and mineral content as the two go hand in hand, means healthier plants that don’t require as much intervention/pesticides. I lost count of how many times conventional gave me a higher Brix reading than organic. Plus, you can transform any grain, improving nutrient bioavailability similar to sprouting, through fermentation.

    As a counterpoint, I think I've crashed my estrogen with both androsterone and 11kDHT in the past but never noticed anything with my joints because I was taking boron at the same time.

    thank you all for this incredibly valuable thread. @alfredoolivas thanks for starting it. I suppose like estrogen, prolactin has its good sides. This has helped me see some more research material I would have missed that I can study.

    @sunsunsun The Japanese had found increased susceptibility to severe fungi infetion and mortality thereof in liver injuries. Additional transferrin negated the extra mortality from liver injury in rodent studies. I.e., liver injuries lead to less transferrin (and UIBC (unbound iron binding capacity) and TIBC (total iron binding capacity) and it is that decrease of transferrin which enhances fungal infections. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2960898/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2975353/ Copper (and retinol) are therefore very essential in prevention of fungal infections. Not sure about any treatment efficacy after infection has already occured, though. Surely more free iron will stimulate fungal growth - but does iron restriction assist when aiming for fungal eradication from tissues? I have been trying to raise my ceruloplasmin (and thus functional transferrin) by regular copper intake since late last year. Also, in this paper from 2000 a strong clinical distinction was suggested between acute disseminated candidiasis and chronic disseminated candididiasis: Again, in CDC, there's typically no candidemia and whereas ADC involves several organ system, CDC predominantly befalls the spleen and liver. Typical findings are hepatosplenomegaly, and focal hepatic lesions by ultrasound imaging and recurrent fevers although I reckon the presentation of the latter two will be subject to the mentioned individual immunological response and existence of an even more latent phenotype of CDC (as abundantly shown in other publications in this thread). Interestingly, cultures and histophathology of liver biopsies again frequently failed to detect fungi proven to be present by clinical signs and PCR of liver biopsies (no positive fungi PCR in healthy control group). In this 1992 publication intrabiliary Amphotericin B was successfully used in a child after (typical) failure of priorly administred systemic AmB to clear the biliary infection. Good for her. Yet only downstream of the hepatic tumor she had been hospitalized for.

    Talk with AI (Claude) How efficient is the intake of a MK4 supplement, (with enough fat, hereby 25 g fat with some MUFAs), when taking 1 mg (1 000 mcg) K2 MK4? Question of vehicle only? No intermediate change into menadione, I suppose, since there is no digest process. Need a confirmation, whenever there is a target amount limited to 2-3 mg K2 supplement. Note: 2 takes of 1 mg MK4 at breakfast and midday meal, with 1 000 UI D3 (both at the same time, AKA 2 x 1 000 UI D3). Brain target. AI says (Claude): Summary: A moderate amount of D3 and K2 are co-absorbed in the same chylomicron pathway; so simultaneous intake is fine. Brain target and dose adequacy: 2 mg/day total is a reasonable range for a brain-focused protocol. Step 1 — Chylomicrons (intestinal phase, 0–4h postprandial) Step 2 — Chylomicron remnants → liver (4–6h) Step 3 — VLDL → IDL → LDL (hepatic re-export, hours to days) A possible route for extra-hepatic tissue supply is that part of the K-vitamins are re-packed into LDL, which forms a major transport system from the liver to peripheral tissues. ScienceDirect This is the key insight for your brain target — the liver processes the chylomicron-delivered MK4 and re-exports it via VLDL, which is then progressively remodeled into IDL and LDL for peripheral tissue delivery. Agarose gel electrophoresis of lipoprotein fractions after K2 supplementation revealed distinct chylomicron bands and variations in VLDL and HDL mobility, influenced by dietary lipids and VK2 supplementation.

    COX-2 is overexpressed in advanced stages of tumors. Aspirin starts inhibiting COX-2 meaningfully after dosages of about 500mg (better would be >1g). Aspirin vindicated as an anti cancer drug. "Most solid tumors express the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) protein, a target of NSAIDs. COX-2 overexpression in tumorsis considered a predictor of more advanced stage disease and of worse prognosis in a number of studies investigating solid malignancies. Therefore, NSAIDs are evaluated as anti-cancer drugs." Artificially overexpressing COX-2 makes mice more prone to developing tumors and knocking it out makes them less likely to develop tumors. "Both COX-1 and COX-2 are involved in tumor vascularization. COX inhibitors can directly affect angiogenesis [47]. " "Thus, COX-2 may be the cause of progression of estrogen-dependent breast cancer either directly by stimulating tumor cell proliferation, or indirectly by upregulating aromatase activity [60]. " "Part of the rationale for combining NSAIDs with chemotherapy involves circumvention of chemotherapy resistance mechanisms." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16945549/ COX-2 inhibition makes chemotherapy (5-fluorouracil) more effective in vitro. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21163769/

    @CrumblingCookie It also kills bacteria and fungus and parasites (e.g. demodex mites). The vasodilation was never the main use for me. And who cares if it's not the most potent vasodilator? It still produces some vasodilation. That's just a plus. Anti-inflammatory + anti-bacteria/fungus/parasite + vasodilation. No way that's not going to be beneficial to your hair health/growth.

    @user73636 sounded like a gimmick at first but its well studied theres a lot on it, decent amount from japan , another way to get it without a machine is buying some elemental magnesium metal sticks or ribbons (safer to avoid as fine powder tho unless stored right). can add a stick or ribbon chunk to water and it will make hydrogen bubbles (added a small amount of malic acid to speed up getting past the oxide surface and a bit more hydrogen , then rinsing after drinking. i added it without malic and it still bubbled) https://bioenergetic.forum/topic/9291/hydrogen-dissolved-in-drinking-water-or-via-gastric-acid i reckon 200ug hydrogen at once would be good. trying to figure out how much a 10cm 130mg ribbon would give. max water saturation you can get is 1mg - 1.5mg per L but it reacts slow and without a lot of acid it forms a black layer. i read some papers where they dipped it for a short time and it had effect still
