Ingebjørg Midsem Dahl did, and her book is called "Classic pacing" in english. Haven't read it myself but seen it recommended on some norwegian...
Agreed. But even if the diets might look different, include different things, they still generally have something in common. Like nutrient...
No worries, there is actual research that dark chocolate is good for creating a happy microbiome environment. >80% cacao and it's all good. At...
It is as you say, the B12 is there but the cells can't use it. When this happens, the levels of methylmalonic acid rises, as it is metabolized in...
I would love such a study too! There are as you say so many factors, and that some of these can be different between patients and controls should...
Definitively, and it might also have to be more than just one day of specific meals.
You can test for functional b12 deficiency by looking at methylmalonic acid levels in the blood.
Being close and personal (physically) with someone could cause exchanges of bacteria (I think this is also observed between animals and their...
I'd rather see a study on cancer in the gastrointestinal tract, where it is possible to get high enough concentrations of some of the anti-cancer...
What Hutan said. I haven't got to read the study except glanced at the participants and I'm skeptical. But I like metabolomics so I look forward...
The problem with zonulin is that it can be expressed in other tissues than the gut, so when taking a bloodtest you can't say where it originates...
I don't think of it as "Off limits", just hard. During the years I've been at university, ME has not been mentioned in lectures. I take subjects...
This. Too tired to write a lot, but as someone thinking about gjetting a phd, I am also dependent on being able to make a living for myself when I...
Not everyone who has an illness where diet is a clear culprit for making them ill/worse are able to just change their diet and recover. It is...
One of my textbooks has "post exertional fatigue" as a symptom of CFS. Patients will have an increase in fatigue lasting one or two days. Oh if only.
JAKs are involved in lots of things though. I'd hope we could find a more specific treatment than that.. A girl can dream.
Some proteins need the disulfide bridges created in an oxidative environment, though. So saying that correct folding of proteins (like in "all...
Sorry I've just been through exam season and my mental fatigue is adding up. When you are talking about folding and reducing environments, do you...
I'm not sure level of activity changes how a protein will be affected by free radicals. Fatty acids (unsaturated ones are most prone to this) are...
But oxidative stress would surely affect other proteins as well as the mitochondrial ones? It does not discriminate.
