    Ideally the beneficial organisme from the donor should colonize the recipient and you shouldn't need more than one.

    This thread is making me miss cell biology. Me too. Then I tested positive a few years later, without ever having noticed I'd been ill. Maybe I was and just thought it was a bad PEM crash, who knows. While true dark skinned individuals are more at risk for becoming vitamin D deficient, it is...

    Decreased NO production in endothelial cells exposed to plasma from ME/CFS patients, Bertinat et al (2022)

    I feel more able to do stuff on days with a lot of sun, but I can also be completely unable to do anything. It is not the vitamin D the skin can produce from sunlight that is the cause of sunlights ability to increase vasodilation. It is the red/infrared lights. There are a few studies on...

    Metabolomic Evidence for Peroxisomal Dysfunction in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, 2022, Levine,Hornig,Lipkin et al
