    There is a lot of data that we could study from everyone given the unique expressions of our immune systems. And with many variables that exist, we measure a miniscule few and ther…

    It's relevant. Mycotoxins (mold produced), and metals can also cause inflammation. In general, it's the immune system trying to sequester or isolate foreign material.

    I try to dry fast for 15 - 20 hours 1/day per week. I can't really do that for my son and do not recommend it for most children.

    We try to exclude it from his diet and minimize it in the house, although he's shown no serious anaphylaxis from it. Typo above, he is 7, not 8. At some point trials for food addit…

    He is 8 now and minor amounts of annatto, by accident, do not seem to trigger it. We taught him what to look for and avoid anything orangish in color without asking us. I do have a…

    We noticed he was more tentative and starting to stutter around the winter holidays, but could not figure out what the pattern was. Then one early evening before dinner we gave him…

    Neuroquant imaging filters for MRI are supposed to detect changes like this, but are quite expensive and not readily available. The pediatricians shrugged their shoulders. Function…

    My young son, now 7 (no stutter), did stutter at age 4 and had some level of anxiety. My wife and I discovered that he has an allergy to annatto, a natural seed used for orange dye…

    Thanks for posting. It lends credence to collecting more data from everyone to better determine T-cell reactivity to a number of pathogens (virus, bacteria, etc) and then let the p…

    It's good that the athletic departments are getting tests like this done for their athletes to provide more information about systemic damage for symptomatic & asymptomatic infecti…

    It's quite possible that if most people owned a solar roof with batteries and redundancy across a specified and localized grid, there would be less need for large power plant owner…

    I think there are plants like Cryptoleptis and Sida Acuta that can be used as tonics or to treat Malaria. They are effective against it's lesser known and less virulent cousin Babe…

    I agree. There are so many variables whose interaction is influenced by each individual's unique immune expression, that we need to measure more of those variables for everyone to …

    Perhaps enjoy some turmeric to lower IL-6, which is widely used to positive effect in many non-pharma regimens and is also complimentary with some pharma. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.n…

    Are the immune responses to the vaccine identical across the trial group? No. Is everyone's response to sars-cov-2 identical? No. Is everyone's immune system unique in its signalin…

    A shot with saline would help demonstrate some of the side effects (localized aches or damage to the muscle), but would not elicit the same response as different vaccine with rough…

    Spending time collecting data is for improving our understanding of an individual's immune system. Sharing that data helps educate those who are unfamiliar with, but have complete …

    Our immune systems are very complex and unique! If you want to apply scientific method and improve outcomes (safety, efficacy), then there is a lot more data to collect. Sharing th…

    I would ask which Quest lab specifically ran the test as lab quality can vary. I have not seen mainstream labs return all of the antibody stains present in some time, they usually …

    I mentioned Armin/Invecto since they are looking at T-cell responses to pathogens. Much of the prolonged antibiotic treatment is no longer common practice. It damages the GI, suppr…

    Never used it and wouldn't use it. I do not condone long term antibiotics either.

    T cell responses are interesting. Infectolab ( https://www.infectolab-americas.com/ ) and its originator Armin (Germany) are using T cell responses for tick borne diseases like: Bo…

    I think it's important to measure the plants entire molecular composition because uncertainty about what adaptations are skipped from growing across a broader spectrum of light?

    Antibody tests are becoming more available. So that's an option for me and possibly my young children when I can afford to pay for it.
