Restless legs syndrome and vitamin D.

"Vitamin D levels should be evaluated in patients with restless legs syndrome and if vitamin D deficiency is revealed, consideration should be given to replacement therapy"

Thymus, far infrared light, and tourmaline

A wearable immune protector?

An exploratory THREAD 🧵 ImageImageImage Before I begin, I must say that this is a fun thread to get some brain cogs rotating.

It’s basically a snapshot of the various ideas that have been floating around in my head over the last week.

Be open-minded.

Let’s go.

It has been shown that exposing the bone marrow in animal models to photobiomodulation either non-invasively or introducing a fibre optic probe into the bone marrow, can treat a wide range of diseases and conditions. Low-level laser therapy applied to the bone marrow of rats significantly reduced infarct size and ventricular dilatation after a heart attack.

The proper understanding and use of melatonin may not only aid those with 💉 injuries and/or Long COVID; but also those who are exposed to low-level microwaves, EMFs, 60 Hz magnetic field, and ambient light at night.

So pretty much everyone.

A THREAD 🧵 In the original thread we learnt that melatonin has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Due to this, it has frequently been proposed for use to overcome the cytokine storm in virus-related infections, including that caused by SARS-CoV-2.

Short answer: No one knows, not even Moderna or Pfizer.

Both companies are said to have not looked at the proteins made by their synthetic mRNA shots in cell culture for mors than 48 hours after transfection.

Longer answer 👇🏾 mRNA from the COVID-19 vaccines was found in germinal centres in secondary lymphoid tissue long after the shot was administered, and it continued to synthesise spike glycoprotein for at least sixty days after inoculation.

The consumption of sugar can momentarily reduce the feeling of stress and anxiety.

This may be why some people see food as comforting, and why they find it difficult to give up sugary treats.

But the relationship between food and mental health is goes lot deeper. Ghrelin is a hunger-promoting hormone, but it also plays a crucial role in stress related mental health disorders, and especially in women.

In humans, both short exposure to stressors as well as severe traumatic events has shown to increase circulating ghrelin levels.

Vitamin K2

The neglected vitamin with antioxidants, bone health-improving, endothelial health-improving, immunomodulating, anti-diabetic, neuroprotective, anti-cancer, and pro-fertility properties.

A THREAD 🧵 The original term "vitamin K” comes from the K in the Germanic word “Koagulation”, meaning the ability to clot blood or prevent haemorrhage, which is why drugs like warfarin, which work by blocking the function of vitamin K, are given to patients with clotting disorders.

NAD and niacin from tryptophan oxidation depends on the induction of the enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase.

Antidepressants may reduced NAD and niacin downstream.

And if this does happen then a subclinical niacin deficiency may result leading to depression.

Vicious cycle. This may be the case in patients with poor dietary intake taking antidepressants.

Firstly, researchers not only tested tourmaline, but also common granite stone, ceramic disks, hot spring water and human palmar energy (called "Kikoh" in Japan and China), on human white blood cell activity.
