    Completely eliminated my severe anxiety symptoms with three supplements!

    Hello, I did try this NAG + Curcumin and flaxseed oil but it seems it increased my anxiety to a great extend. Fortunately I found a relief with the carnivore diet, which matches the hundreds of commentaries on different carnivore Facebook groups : less anxiety or non existant, mental clarity...

    Whey protein powder to address ME/CFS metabolic issues being identified by researchers - which one?

    Peptopro is hydrolyzed at 27%. Whey isolate is hydrolyzed around 5 to 7%. I am guessing the first one is gonna give better results if purity is a factor.

    Interesting first appointment with Dr. KDM

    I think he sees the Bacteroidetes (From the MSA test) the wrong type. He likes it when it's less than 10%.

    lyme or not lyme ? im lost :/

    Hi Oliver, Tu peux rejoindre le groupe Facebook Lyme Naturellement si tu le désires, beaucoup de personnes compétentes et je crois même qu'il y a des gens des îles... Concernant tes analyses, difficile de répondre car c'est assez ambigüe, néanmoins les tests ne sont pas vraiment fiables.

    Seeing Dr John Chia on Friday, What Questions Should I Ask?

    Maybe not a lot of people have tried this product. I am in touch with a lot of patients in France, some in other countries in Europe and I know only 2 people who is/was on it. One has just started.The other couldn't cope with the side effect (extreme tiredness) so he didn't pursue.

    Powdered oxymatrine more potent than tablets?

    Right, thank you. I guess you did try them (or the most potent ones). Could you rule out an active enterovirus in your case then?

    Powdered oxymatrine more potent than tablets?

    Then what about these 3: Osmium basilicum Raoulia australis Bupleurum kaoi https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4032839/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17052829/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16644487/

    Powdered oxymatrine more potent than tablets?

    Sophora is not the only herb that can inhibit enteroviruses. Houttuynia is one but not the only. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19222118 https://cmjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13020-016-0074-0

    Appointment with KDM & prescriptions

    I think it was true when you were visiting him but I don't think it is anymore. I know a lot of people who don't have this diagnosis and he doesn't rely on the Elispot as before. His new theory for ME (from what I can gather) is that some kind of infections (bacterias or viruses) trigger an...

    Poll: Who do you believe is the most effective CFS/ME doctor?

    I have read on PR about someone who hadn't had any response to Equilibrant until he took Resistant Starch for some months.

    Equilibrant vs. Oxymatrine

    1 pill of Equilibrant contains 1500 mg and Sophora F is only one part of the blend. 1 pill of White Tiger contains 1000 mg of Sophora F with 20% of Oxymatrine. So you're right, they probably contain the same amount more or less (if 20% of Oxymatrine is standardised).
