    Bill Walsh Finally Explains Over-Methylation In A Way I Can Understand

    Thanks for the update picante, I really appreciate it. I've nothing to suggest but hope your state improves soon. @Gondwanaland's comments about hypoglycemia make sense, even if elsewhere on these forums I've not seen them mentioned (only how good the supp's you have been taking are). The human...

    Bill Walsh Finally Explains Over-Methylation In A Way I Can Understand

    Please keep us updated, and if there's a positive effect, would you mind updating us over the long-term? It's useful to know how it's going over weeks and months, to see when the effect changes.This forum is better than most for follow-up, which I'm very grateful for. Freddd, do you have these...

    Started taking B6 and feeling funny. Help Please. :(

    Very happy to help out; I'm a software engineer by trade and have been thinking of ways to collate the huge amount of useful information (including contradictions) and present it in a more organised and easily digestible format than various forum posts and web pages. It'd be really interesting...

    Zinc + B6 (and few others), was it overmethylation?

    Liquid Carnitine - is it fumarate?

    I've been reading people's reports on this forum of trying L-Carnitine Fumarate and would like to get some to try. I've seen the liquid form mentioned a few times and Freddd uses it to titrate up when people are particularly sensitive. I prefer taking liquids, but all I've looked at (e.g...

    BBC article on the chronic form of Lyme disease

    It's a good summing up of "we don't know what the real problem is", but not entirely bias-free over whether a chronic Lyme condition exists. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-34579423

    Latest model on what CFS is, and implication for treatment

    Are there any layman's guides to designing better experiments? I enjoy experimenting on myself but I'm aware how worthless the results of trying something are, due to the placebo effect mostly, and because my knowledge of biochemistry is lacking (mostly gleaned from this forum, synthesising...

    AOR's new NO Supplement

    @ahmo Thanks for the info on what's in it - olive leaf extract seems pretty powerful. For you, what changes happened when you started to take it? What do you experience if you stop taking it for a couple of days/weeks?

    Recent 'AF' observations

    Yes they do. Though I can't agree with all their site, whenever people tell me I have adrenal fatigue (and here's how to treat it) I like to point them at the Science Based Medicine article: https://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/fatigued-by-a-fake-disease/ Unfortunately I usually get a...
