flu

It happened again today. A colleague at work is leaving the company, so he had a farewell party yesterday that I attended (normally I work from home). There was about 15-20 of us there, several of whom are vaccinated, and we didn't wear masks. Felt fine when I got home yesterday, but by this...

A gem of a study that throws a wrench in one of medicine's core dogmas - i.e. androgens have detrimental effects on the immune system and males have evolved to live with a trade-off between high androgen levels (and as such high fertility) and higher risk of severe viral episodes that can be...

..... and apparently, an idiot too. The following video is mostly an interview with Mullis. The best part of this video for me is when Mullis says Fauci "doesn't know anything about anything." He also states that Fauci has no problem lying on camera, and changing rules anytime he wants...

I’m had a bad flu and then developed symptoms of Pancreatitis which I am now diagnosed. Has anyone had success in reversing pancreatitis? Would the approach be the same if it started from a viral infection?

I wanted to share some really great quotes from this paper: Role of Fat-Soluble Vitamins A and D in the Pathogenesis of Influenza: A New Perspective There is so much juicy info in this article I encourage everyone interested in learning about vitamin A and D to read it! I think this has many...

A remarkable study, which demonstrates that not all antibiotics have been created equal. Namely, the tetracycline family of antibiotics is strikingly protective against lethality from sepsis, and that protection is completely separate from their antibiotics effects. For example, the study...

...and that <1% death rate is actually about 0.17% on average for everybody except those people over 70. Bottom line - COVID-19 is now confirmed to be less lethal than the flu, according to the govt's own numbers (which are probably biased in favor of making COVID-19 look more deadly than it...

Epidemic influenza and vitamin D Most people probably seen this but if not good to take a look. Also reveals dosage of vitamim D and during what months etc. To give you the answer usually september, October supplementation should start with a dose of 4000-5000 and continue that dose whole...

For all the forced vaccinations people endured, death rates from infectious disease in general skyrocketed shortly after, during the 1918 pandemic. I read this interesting series of articles from stanford, and evidently the infkuenza outbreak began in military camps, the first population that...

I guess most people on the forum who have heard of lanosterol know it in the context of treating cataracts. Lanosterol - Wikipedia There is a company out there who used to sell lanosterol as eye drops and it is insanely expensive - $100 for a meager 10mg lanosterol. Anyways, lanosterol is...

Vitamin D was once the darling of every family doctor. It was recommended for quite a few ailments both as prevention and treatment. However, in the first decade of the 21st century, the vitamin took a beating as a few large (but poorly designed) trials failed to find benefit for a number of...

Not sure why the study considers January to May to be winter months, but this is yet another study that links maternal metabolism (and serotonin) to autism. The official explanation is increased flu infection and lower vitamin D levels in the winter. While these may be contributing factors, I...

Peat has written on the benefits of progesterone in viral conditions and how precursors such as pregnenolone or even cholesterol have similarly protective effects. I posted a study almost 2 years ago showing that high levels of cholesterol blocked viral infection and replication, and that people...

I've been reading around the forum about vaccines and I haven't found solid answers. Are there potential negative effects of getting vaccinated for an adult? Is there any way of actually knowing if flu shots are effective? Did you guys get a flu shot?

Ray has said a number of times that he thinks the majority of "flu" cases are simply symptoms of toxicity caused by increased levels of endotoxin in the blood. It seems that he may have been right about this. The study I am posting here is interesting for two reasons. One of them is more or less...

Heyooo! First post! I woke up this morning feeling quite ill.My current temperature is 38.5 degrees C. Any peat-style tips for reducing symtoms of being plain sick. On a sidenote I can not remember the last time I had a fever this high. Perhaps a peat diet facilitates effective/high fever...
