No, it didn't seem worthwhile. Foods such as sour candies likely use fairly pure industrial ingredients, so that was good enough for me. If...
It might not identify the mechanism, but a reliable response from the majority of PWME would be valuable, if for nothing more than verifying that...
Yesterday I read an article on SciDaily about memory engrams affecting metabolism. That was about memories of cold response triggering metabolic...
Nah, it'll be carefully planned, with all the cytokines in numerical order. ;) How risky is testing cytokines at levels typically encountered...
ME is all about treatments that are miraculous for one person, and having the opposite effect for someone else. Even worse, it changes over time,...
That might explain why some of us suffer only some hours of PEM, while others crash for days or longer. It might also explain why some people's...
Would ingested malic acid (apples, sour candies) affect immune activity via this mechanism? I'm intolerant of malic acid, I assume due to my ME.
Timely item. I recently had inflammation in two places in my gums. I thought a root canal had gone bad, and was expecting my gum to puff up...
My concern is that it sounds like its goal is creating and maintaining a bureaucracy. Politicians like that, since they can point to it as...
Too disappointing? It's much more exciting to read about a new pill that is going to make you slim, trim and healthy forever.
Aren't most age-related disease due to telomeres reaching their "no more replacement" limit? Well, there's also accumulated debris and damage...
Principle 3 seems kind of hard to follow, since we don't know how an AI makes the decisions it does. We don't know how humans do this either. I...
ME could cause neurological effects that make muscles work less efficiently, which could raise those factors. Likewise, PWME likely do less...
I'm ignorant about the actual value of genetic studies for diagnosis or treatment. I know there are some diseases which are defined by a...
Yes. IMO there hasn't been adequate evidence to support risky pharmaceutical treatments for ME. However, if a PWME really, really wants to try a...
Add "reliably" to that. There may be people who trigger PEM, but only occasionally, so they don't link exertion with the symptoms. For that...
Food allergies and intolerances are part of ME. I probably reported that I was intolerant of malic acid (apples). Likewise carrots, while I was...
The problem with this approach is that individuals might have different circuitry. It could be that PWME have a circuit that has high sensitivity...
ME and LC are natural disasters. Putting it in a financial context that politicians understand should help.
Actually, it isn't, because our knowledge of the actual risks and benefits of something like LDN for ME is no better than our knowledge of the...
Separate names with a comma.
