I love red light therapy (I have an combo red/infrared light that I sometimes use), but nothing rivals the sun. I have often thought that if I could move somewhere on the equator I would probably do much better, energy-wise. I don&#x27

Hey, I appreciate both of you; I wouldn't characterize the parent as unethical, he seems like a real person with a story, on the surface I have doubts it could work for me, but I won't rule it out, if only I had the financial mean

I'm not American, but I doubt I would have gotten MS were it not for terrible diet, stress, lack of sleep, various deficiencies at the time of diagnosis but also during childhood. Also had a very bad bout of mononucleosis when I was 10

I've read somewhere that long Covid presents with demyelination just like MS... I so much forgotten about having MS that at times I wondered if I didn't get covid unknowingly, because they symptoms some people described were so si

Thank you. I have been experimenting and evolving with diets since shortly after diagnosis. The first year I was symptomatic but it went away pretty dramatically after starting Paleo, I believe because general inflammation went down. I&#x27

Thank you. I will look into nervgen, initial search results say something about spinal cord neurons, is there anything for the brain? Lastly, I'm not on a DMD, which one are you on, or would you recommend? I didn't understand they

Couldn't it simply be the extreme stress everybody's been on? And the recent doom and gloom? I mean in my eyes the world has suddenly become nightmarish since 2020, first slowly but ever faster. I have to say this is probably tain

Understood! If you think your config is particularly nice I created an proton.me account as mush_room_hn, I'm a nix config collector of sorts ;-).

I'm always up for checking a well-kept garden, care to share?

You're right, after researching, mentions of the hygiene hypothesis all attribute the epidemic to decreases in exposure in infancy, and possibly decreases in exposure in the mother as well. But I did find where I got that from, for wha

ok, but the observation I was referring to was talking about those children, and how they tended do to much better when exposed to polio; maybe that's a complete fabrication, I don't have a reference on hand

This wasn't in infants, children of age to play in the streets.

But isn't keeping your money providing information to the economy? And conversely, forcing it to be spent as investment generating malinvestment, investment in frivolous activity? I'm just thinking out loud...

I think both can be true, question of balance. Concerning kids exposed to those pathogens in the developing world, we have to consider that malnutrition is a major contributor.

I guess, I just have this sense that things could've been much better if we intervened less, and that's in general. I think bias for action does harm in many instances.

I'm not providing a reference with this comment but I've heard numerous times that at the time of the polio epidemic it was a common observation that kids raised in "rough" conditions, i.e. on the streets and exposed to

I've been thinking about this lately, and to put it bluntly, my conclusion is with the "sound money" people, that monetary intervention at the whims of bureaucrats has progressively poisoned the economy as the information sys
