@Seven7 Thank you for sharing your insights. Would you mind sharing what did finally raise your NK cell count and activity?
For me was quiting fish oil ( my doctor says should not matter so against medical advice) and definitely Nk cell activator from life extension.
I also raised LDN at some point to 9mg a day ( for pain for doctors instructions).
They all are consider to raise it ( and gosh oil to modulate it).
By the way Inosisne and immunovir would of done the job if I could of tolerate the right dose, I just couldn’t.

@Seven7 Hey - out of interest why did your dr recommend quitting fish oil? I notice if I don't take fish oil capsules every day my cells start to crash, feels like traumatic shock almost. Thanks.
They told me not to quit ( the opposite) the reason why I did it, is because when women cannot get pregnant because of high Nk, they give them fish oil.
I was months away from my appointment when I read that and quit to ask her. But when I was my labs I decided not to take and do a lower inflammation diet approach instead.
I was sharing not that my doctor agreed or that I recommend it. But for whAtever reason the combo worked for me.
I think we are all different, my approach is if I am doing the same with no results, I change until I do get results. Then stay there.
