dont take d3 without checking your d25 levels first - you could induce hypercalciemia, especially now since you've became symptomatic...
No that's way too much....
yes, d3 through d25 both increases VDR expression and increases activation of it, but watch out for serum calcium levels...
up clean energy like white rice...
low BP + fatigue = max bacteria killing...
try this before sleep: - sauna - high calorie high carb starch based meal...
Yes, its possible. How much did you take?...
> I wonder why/how antibiotics work on a virus? many natural abx are direct antivirals > Do some abx reduce inflammation and this helps the immune system take care of it? yes, like iver:...
btw, not only iver(hype kind attention) is active against covid, but zith, lactoferin, bactrim, doxy, zinc too...
i have the same thing - its just immune system upregulation (inflammation) against chronic infection - can persist for a while...
actually you do not want remission from CFS if you still have an active infection, since during CFS the max killing happens...
maybe through zonulin activity over permeability this could explain why bloating leads to less systemic herx in some cases also adipose tissue itself recruits WBC - could explain why more overweight...
they are part of the drop and do not play much value in resistance against chronic disease, your monocytes should rise by 20..40% though in absolute numbers...
looks like you need something like saccharomyces boulardii...
its probably the other way around - when your WBC are low it means that more leucocytes are being transformed into macrophages through the higher levels of MCP-1 once you are in ketosis your...
I think SIBO is a form of immune deficiency - bugs suppress WBC and overgrow is the result of WBC loosing control over gut biome....
MA10, unfortunately not. I believe that until infection and already high corresponding background level of inflammation are not successfully resolved this sort of symptoms will continue to persist....
I have the same thing - it has nothing to do with insulin, etc the thing is glucose spike itself is highly pro inflammatory during chronic toxemia and this leads to temporary brain shut down effect...
Yeah, immune system uses ton of energy to fight off infection hence fatigue try to up per day calories a bit - it could help like give 20..30% more energy proteins fats glucose are all important for...
> even Marshall himself seems disappointed with the results could you please point me to the Marshall's disappointment with the net results - I've failed to find the thread mpkb.org advertises high...
you could become low on retinol in eyes...
Spike of glucose(highly pro inflammatory), possibly retinol spike (check https://ggenereux.blog/ for details on this) or maybe herx from lactoferrin...
What dose? Are you using it in combination with other abx?...
Both of them. They are used against cpn too as well as mycobacteria. I'am not sure they are targeting bart directly though. Yes, i know its a common story among llmds but endless times repeated...
Girlie - how is your diet? If I were you I'd experiment with a low carb one, since insulin(as a response to carbs, especially refined ones) suppresses immune system. Its really important to rely on...
Rif seems like a very good drug against all sets of chronic microbiome, not just one co-infection like bart, since it targets RNA - so no wonder almost all protocols include it. I've also heard its...
> The study you referred is from 1977, more then 40 years ago. > Perhaps at that time researchers didnt had the tools they have now to see the real scenario....
improved chemotaxis does not mean a whole lot by itself...
250mg is a safer max dose of vit C. Too much and it will start suppressing immune system pretty badly....
did you experience any health gains in parallel with decreased tolerance to abx? your increased abx intolerance could be explained by more healthy immune system now(with decreased bacterial load)...
Girlie , I was under the impression that you've pulsed rifampin under Dr J protocol? https://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=30&m=3784898...
MIC = minimum inhibitory concentration; combo of say 2 abx mutually reduces each other MIC in a dish and probably in the body too - more effective but could be much more harder to tolerate at the...
Seems like classic herx reaction to me. Also Rifabutin is pretty brutal abx... Rifabutin/Rifampin+Septra is an effective combo to reduce MICs of both antibiotics. btw, does Dr J. pulses Rifampin as...
Yes, it sometimes suppresses on the first day taken but the same dose usually generates more herx on the follow up days, besides it helps to avoid resistance from other abxs...

I herx a ton from Coconut Oil, but not monolaurin....
I think one way to follow would be targeting bugs suppressing VDR with abx - so vit D pathways could be restored and become functional again. In those, abx should lead to increased light/sun...

Yes, I agree - too much of the herx means immune cells are switching towards inter-communication(via pro infl cytokines release due to excessive toxins), instead of phagocytosis and bacteria killing....
