Good to know, thank you!
I agree that it's a weird and interesting finding. However, it still doesn't give any role for exhausted T cells in causing the disease, rather...
Just now seeing this thread. I remember skimming the paper when it came out. I believe similar findings are coming up in LC. But overall, I...
I just meant isolated malic acid. As in without any other of the metabolites from apples that could be causing the effect instead of malic acid....
God, same. “Obviously you’ve harnessed the power of positive thinking to “overcome” your illness. What do you mean you can’t take 4 classes and...
Hugs. It’s so frustrating, isn’t it. At best you’re treated like a novelty who’s there for the superficial “social awareness” quota of “respecting...
I both have ME/CFS and am a graduate student who has been involved in ME/CFS and LC research for years. I’ve noticed such a difference in how I’m...
Thanks so much for the update! If nothing else I’m glad you like sumac! I’ve also really been enjoying the taste of sumac, I get a craving for it...
Have you ever taken a pure malic acid supplement? My main concern is that malic acid derived from fruits (or flavorings trying to mimic fruits)...
Yes that’s been my same concern for a while. In terms of a statistical association, it would be like trying to find genetic predictors of...
We already know the effect of the interferon used for treating hepatitis, and it sounds very close to PEM (at least the experience of it, not the...
Thanks, unfortunately it seems to be a universal problem across masks, even ones that seem to work well for my fellow Slavs. It’s all good though,...
Also it’s completely ignoring the idea that a disease state can absolutely change the oral microbiome to begin with. Slight changes in salivary...
Unfortunately the mask is only as good as the percentage of air that ends up going through the filter material, and air will always follow the...
Yeah I think it’d only become an issue if you’re in a hospital ward and wearing it for hours and hours while sweating. For your case, I think...
From what I have read, the primary issue with prolonged use is loss of strap elasticity and then warping of the shape of the mask. Both are more...
Interestingly, that study specifically excluded stimulant users. I really wonder if it would have been higher or the same if they had been included.
I have not had it measured, though interestingly looking at the oxoaloacetate trial, the “subset of super responders” seems to roughly line up...
The work on engineered toleragenic APCs seems to be promising for some use cases, though likely a ways away from being usable in humans....
Thanks for linking that. Between this and the description of the poisoned feeling that many have shared, part of me has been suspecting transient...
