The Six Cardinal Elements of the Health Cycle: Naviaux's recent paper discussing mitochondrial and metabolic features of salugenesis and the healing cycle emphasizes that #chronicillnesses persist due to an "abnormal persistence of a normal phase of the healing cycle." #MECFS
1/3 Naviaux outlines six "cardinal elements" of the health cycle: restorative sleep, wakeful activity, nutrient intake, waste and toxin removal, social connection, and nature connection.
2/3 According to Naviaux, the disruption or absence of any of these cardinal elements can lead to chronic disorders.

[CASE REPORT] Brain biopsy detects #Bartonella in brain lesions: A 28-year-old woman presented to the neurology department with progressive vision loss in both eyes over the prior four months (continued in comments). #Lyme #Lymedisease pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37153245/
1/5 She had a history of #lupus and had been on high-dose prednisone. A brain MRI showed numerous lesions in her cerebral and cerebellar hemispheres.
2/5 A brain biopsy was performed, and Bartonella henselae was discovered. Antibiotics were started, her vision improved, and the lesions resolved.

NEW RESEARCH: Herbal and enzyme formula effective at reducing #Biofilms. Biofilms are a polysaccharide matrix secreted by microbes to create a protective community. Think of a biofilm like Jello surrounding a raspberry in a dessert (continued in comments). #Lymedisease #Lyme
1/5 Biofilms can make bacteria up to a thousand times more resistant to antibiotics. #Candida and #Borrelia (the bacteria that cause Lyme disease) commonly produce biofilms.
2/5 This newly published research study examined the effect of an herbal and enzyme formula containing NAC, cranberry, berberine, rosemary, peppermint, and enzymes on biofilm mass on five pathogens.

[CASE REPORT] The CDC reports a case of Borrelia miyamotoi in California man: The Center for Disease Control (CDC) just published a case report In their journal, Emerging Infectious Disease, of Borrelia miyamotoi in California (continued in comments). #Lyme #Lymedisease #TBRF
1/7 The man was on a drug for multiple sclerosis, so he was considered immunocompromised. He experienced fevers that lasted a day, every 10-14 days, nausea, and “visual changes.”
2/7 Borrelia miyamotoi is a close cousin of Lyme disease and part of the tickborne relapsing fever group (TBRF).

How do you know if you have #Dysautonomia/#POTS?
1/6 Dysautonomia/POTS is a common concomitant condition in complex #chronicillness. Normally our #autonomicnervoussystem (#ANS) responds to changes in position from lying or sitting to standing.
2/6 Often in chronic illness, the autonomic nervous system does not work properly and a change in position causes the heart rate to increase to compensate for low blood vessel tone (POTS) or the blood pressure decreases upon standing (#orthostatichypotension).

The Effect of #Glyphosate on the #Gutmicrobiome and Neurocognitive Function
sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
1/5 Glyphosate is the active ingredient in the herbicide #RoundUp. In 1996 #geneticallymodified soybeans that could tolerate Round Up were introduced. At that time, Round Up made up just 3.8% of herbicides in use. By 2007 glyphosate use was more than double the next herbicide.
2/5 Glyphosate blocks an enzyme used by plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae, including beneficial bacteria in our #gut. Pathogenic bacteria Clostridia and Salmonella are not affected by glyphosate, allowing them to survive.

Mercury causes release of #mastcell mediators #MCAS
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20222982/
1/4 There is a lot of discussion about what causes #mastcellactivationsyndrome. Rarely are toxic metals such as mercury discussed. There is ample published research associating mercury as a cause of mast cell mediator release, including this study.
2/4 Toxins and infections aggravate the immune system, contributing to inflammation & immune dysfunction that drive symptoms. Toxic metals drive a Th2 immune response leading to increase IgE antibody production that bind to mast cells causing them to release their contents.
