After a 2 week trial I would like to report that I've found C60 in olive oil useful.
C60 is a 60 atom carbon molecule shaped like a soccer ball. They are called buckminsterfullerenes or bucky balls for short. When mixed with olive oil it can enter cellular membranes and acts as a potent antioxidant as well as having potential effects on stem cells, DNA, mitochondria, methylation, and protein folding.
I am really tired and there are a few threads on C60 already, so I will let you look up those if you're curious.
I am at about 1/5 my pre illness activity level (physical and mental), only 6 months in, and I do not have severe chemical sensitivities, just more like a bunch of food and environmental allergies that I didn't have before. I have lost a ton of weight, much of it muscle, and have gut and autonomic problems, as well as a bunch of the adrenal problems. So your mileage may vary.
I find that 3 mg of C60 5 days a week has nearly doubled the amount of time I can spend on my feet or engaged in mental activity before I start to get that sh!tty feverish, drunken feeling that warns me to back off.
I also have not had nearly as much anxiety since I started taking it. I don't think this is a placebo effect. It increases my appetite also.
I would suggest it the most for those who are at a similar place in their illness - somewhat active and still able to tolerate new supplements.
OK I must sleep. Getting the inflamed brain sensation.
