It is no coincidence that smoking is considered substantially protective against parkinson's disease.
Nicotine also has great utility in Alzheimer's disease
The second therapeutic agent approaches the problem from a different angle:
Stimulating production of acetylcholine within the neuron itself.
Enter... Thiamine (Vitamin B1)
In many respects, thiamine is THE most important nutrient for the cholinergic system
Thiamine availability tracks closely with acetycholine production in neurons
Thiamine is needed to make the raw material
But aside from its metabolic role, thiamine is also involved in the release and utilization of ACh by neurons
High dose thiamine has put some patients with Parkinson's Disease into clinical remission, and is currently being trialled in Alzheimer's disease
I run a group on FB with over 11,000 members.
Many of them reversed long-COVID/post vaccine dysautonomia after my protocols which employ thiamine derivatives in high doses
Thiamine is my number 1 go-to therapy for ANY dysautonomia
The third intervention approaches the problem from yet another angle:
Cleaning up the mess caused by chronic neuroinflammation
Therapeutic agent #3 : Plasmalogens
In simple terms, plasmalogens are a specific type of lipid found in high concentrations in cell membrane
They can be depleted during states of inflammation.
They are being studied Alzheimer's disease and cognitive impairment
One theory states that under conditions of cholinergic impairment, cells may "autocanabilize" their own choline-plasmalogens to replenish choline
One thing is for sure...
Working via several different mechanisms, they can work wonders in any condition characterized by neuroinflammation.
In conclusion, this was a summary of my presentation on 3 therapeutic agents which can help to restore nervous system function in people suffering from post-COVID/vaccine dysautonomia
Rough dosage:
Thiamine (depending on the form used):
HCL form - 500-2000mg
TTFD - 200-500mg
Benfotiamine - 1,200-2000mg
Nicotine: It varies, but anywhere from 5mg-21mg patches, daily
Plasmalogens: Also varies on the form. Most people I know use marine-derived plasmalogens as low as 1-2mg per day. Other companies advocate for plasmalogen precursors, but have no experience with this so can't comment.

I had chronic fatigue and severe food intolerances after mold exposure and thiamine made it possible to gain back my energy, heal my gastroparesis and food intolerances and go back to work full time.
Prior to thiamine I had microcytic anemia, low hemoglobin and low RBC - all these blood markers went to normal after 4 months on thiamine protocol, specifically TTFD with co-factors and nutrient dense diet.
**This was one of the 79 reports I received just last night**
After contracting covid 3 times, I was left with severe fatigue, palpitations, general weakness and brain fog.
Other supplements like Magnesium, Vit D+K, Zinc and Creatine did not provide significant relief.
Just a few days of taking TTFD, I quickly noticed that my afternoon energy levels were drastically better.
Previously, a gym session with weightlifting would completely sap my energy, but after just 2-3 days of TTFD, a confident 70-80% improvement in post-workout energy.
The brain fog issues lifted over the next few months. I have since added in the Thiactive and Thiassist formulations in daily, which I would estimate have given me a 10% improvement all around.
I also find that my body temperature is higher, especially with greater carb intake.
***another user reported***
This is about my now 17 year old son. We are still titrating up on the thiamine dosage so we still haven't reached the right dosage yet but we have definitely seen improvement.
He had long covid starting at 13 and then afterwards developed MCAS and dysautonomia. He dealt with shortness of breath, hot flashes, headaches, dizziness, lethargy, heat intolerance, exercise intolerance, and digestive issues.
Many of these symptoms are gone now. Others have greatly improved!!!
How does this work? My first ever academic paper just published - Where we attempt to explain how:
We present a novel theory that B1 deficiency can be localized to the gut, for various reasons, and this will not likely show up on any test results.
Can Thiamine deficiency be a hidden cause of chronic gut problems? Most doctors will laugh at the idea
I've known that it can for over 6 years, and thousands of followers have successfully used it to self treat their gut issues since then.
However, there wasn't ONE SINGLE single academic review on this topic. So we wrote one!
In this article we discuss the mechanistic evidence for why thiamine can be a stealth cause of common functional gut disorders
Why is the gut uniquely susceptible to a deficiency vs other tissues?
Why does practically no one in nutrition or medicine know about this?
Its a travesty that this simple yet HIGHLY effective therapy is not widely known.
But I hope to change that Based on the available evidence, we can say that in some cases, a thiamine deficiency triggers the same mechanisms known to drive IBS/SIBO, intestinal inflammation, intestinal permeability, GERD, gastroparesis, etc
