I actually wanted to tie the
following personal health information into Medical Totalitarianism, as I have some examples of that which pertain to the following, but I don't have time to assimilate it all right at this moment (maybe later today or never...)

It appears that (although I haven't had a test to confirm such an imbalance but will try to find one) my illness is an inflammatory cascade wherein glutathione becomes too low in the liver and glutathione is required to regulate glutamate/glutamine in the brain which are otherwise excitotoxins which cause nerve death via the calcium pathway. This damage activitates the cytokines and immune system (remember 70% of the immune system resides in the gut) thus causing systemic inflammation (or elevated immune system activity) which stress the gut and any resultant and/or comicotant dysbiosys in the gut can exacerabate or cause the inflammation to become chronic because the production of vitamin K and D reduces which are mediators of calcium and immune system signaling. In short, the chronic inflammation becomes holistically symbiotic. It appears that to restore homeostasis requires raising the level of glutathione, vitamin D, and B vitamins especially B12. As a side-effect apparently the mediation of hydrogen peroxide at the hair folicles causing grey hair is done by catalase which the maintainence of which apparently requires glutathione and perhaps other nutrients such as selenium. Glutathione can be increase by taking Alpha Liponic Acid (ALA) and N-acetyl cysteine (NAC). I do note I had a very fast greying of my beard since I got so ill over the past 2 - 3 years, but that may be just be attributed to my age 50. I am also doing a 8+ week course of triple antibiotics + NAC to be sure I don't have the chlamydia pneumonia bacteria which is found in 97% of Multiple Sclerosis patients and eradicating it has apparently cured some MS patients. The doxcycline is also anti-inflammatory. I am also taking the ALA, coenzymated B-complex, and vitamin D3. So far I have felt excellent on these supplements for the past few days (after I stopped eating wrong foods, see below), except for today I have a slight relapse going on probably because I skipped a night's sleep due to trying to analyze that competing white paper to my anonymity white paper. Also I should note I just recently starting cooking my vegetables in the soup which is pure virgin coconut MILK (not oil). This is the milk squeezed from meat of the coconut to give the byproduct of dessicated coconut (that is a topping on cakes). The milk is so sweet and medium-chain oils that are absorbed directly by the liver from the intensive and to the brain as ketones instead of glucose. Seems to really calm the inflammation. The milk avoids all the excess insoluble fiber from eating the virgin meat that was overloading my gut. About 6 days into my antibiotic treatment (today is day 14), I got a very bad relapse, which I now attribute to eating spaghetti because I see tomatoes have more glutamate than other food by an order-of-magnitude. Also wheat has glutamate. I actually started the antibiotics to correct a horrendous gut condition two weeks ago with water only diarrhea. My best guess of what happened to me since April/May is that I was by doing what I thought was more Paleo diet eating too many omega-6 meats (chicken, beef, and pork) and not carbohydrates (no white rice) and just occassionally vegetables. This apparently sent my inflammation into the stratosphere and was feeling so crap that I decided to try water-only fasting. Apparently fasting can destroy the levels of glutathione so apparently this caused me to go into some horrendous inflammatory cascade in September, thus basically making me bed ridden for most of the month. I can't really even remember September because I was so struggling+fatigue+pain so much, it is a blur in my mind. Just a few days ago I discovered this information on glutathione (
http://www.gordonresearch.com/inner.cfm?itemCategory=46861) and started the coconut milk + ALA is just in the past 4 days of which I have felt almost entirely asymptomatic and worked nearly nonstop but overdoing by skipping a night of sleep (which is really bad because it can trigger the inflammatory cascade). I hope I am on track now to work every day normally and sleep normally. Btw my original cascade was likely triggered by habitual gut infections since the 1990s due to eating unsanitary foods in the Philippines, also the MSG (monosodium glutamate) put in all the foods prepared here in Philippines. Also the numerous STDs and respiratory infections transferred to me by my ex and also other females I was involved with over the years in the Philippines. Up until a few years ago when the economy improved significantly, nearly every filipino had a chronic cough to which I was routinely exposed and thus I was often sick. So many factors combined to overstress my body including too many all niters working as a hacker/nerd/programmer. Also add not getting enough sun exposure do to working on the computer thus insufficient vitamin D3 to mediate the cascade. Also passing through middle age.
P.S. my health is not going well. I am pretty much giving on trying any therapies (because nothing works and I've tried "everything") until and if ever I can afford the best research specialists doing diagnostics on me. So don't expect too much from me. But I am still trying. I did run 9 kilometers in the past 2 days but today was a total Chronic Fatigue day bed ridden.
That was kinda stupid. If you're suffering from any type of chronic fatigue you definitely don't want to be doing anaerobic exercise - you'll be burning precious amounts of protein and the physiological response will leave you exhausted for days. Plus, all the while you're ill, your anaerobic threshold is likely to be much lower than the standard model. So while daily exercise is critical, anything over ~110bpm is a no-no, at least for the first six weeks. Then you can start to build it up.
Anonymint is most likely suffering from some kind of fungal mycotoxicosis. Or in layman's terms: mold poisoning.
It's curable with a bile acid sequestrant such as cholestyramine in conjunction with high-dose omega 3 and an amylose-free diet.
He'd first need to rule out Lyme Disease though. Blood tests would confirm.
I will look into this and which diagnostic tests or diagnostic therapies can be tried. If this turns out to be the case, we can discuss a thank you remuneration privately.
Here is the
post I made today about my health. Apologies to steer the thread on my personal issue. Will be doing the math on Shen's paper shortly (was catching up on sleep).
...I am terribly sleepless (36 hours awake)....
So lets be cruel to be kind.
Get some fucking sleep. Ross, J.J. (1965). Neurological findings after prolonged sleep deprivation. Archives of Neurology, 12(4), 399-403.
You're no bloody good to crypto if you're dead because you keep yourself awake, because you feel the need to make a point, win a point or win over some funding. You'd be more effective, in this regard, after getting some zzz's.
Trip the power switch.
Absolutely. I relapsed probably because of that marathon session. See the link I posted above.
