    Immunity restoring effect of DHEA (fixing low levels restores immune system activity)

    DHEA levels are low in people hospitalized with covid (when controlled for age group - so its not just that people older aged have lower DHEA levels, but within the age group also DHEA levels are ~50% less in people hospitalized vs controls, and the drop in DHEA levels correlates with severity)...

    L-Citrulline restores immunity & T Cell mitochondria function acutely

    Citrulline looks like the best amino acid for acute use in infections to replenish immune markers A lot of viruses try to upregulate arginase in our bodies to shift more arginine into ornithine & urea - to lower protective immunity of the host . which is also seen in covid where Arginase...

    Cyproheptadine May Treat African Swine Fever

    We have been discussing surprisingly versatile and, at the same time, strong antiviral properties on this forum for a long time. And now the latest research shows that cyproheptadine is already effective against swine fever. I'm pretty busy so I can't elaborate on that. Maybe @haidut and @Hans...

    Memantine immunosuppression

    Hi everyone, I have been prescribed memantine for ADHD and, for the most part, I really like it. However, there's one extremely disruptive side effect, namely that I get sick every couple weeks whenever I take it. Apparently, it "causes a profound depletion of CD45RO+ T-cells" in vitro...

    Effects of DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) on Host Virus Interactions

    Abstract: A significant protective effect of a native adrenal steroid, dehydroepiandrosterone DHEA was demonstrated in studies of two lethal viral infection models in mice, systemic coxsackievirus B4 and herpes simplex type 2 encephalitis. The steroid was active either by long-term feeding or by...

    Treat the symptoms not the cause?

    We often hear the opposite in the natural health realm, "treat the cause! Don't chase symptoms!" What's curious is that in TCM and Ayurveda, two of many ancient lifestyle and health practices, the root cause isn't necessarily discussed. What's addressed are doshas or temperaments or humors and...

    Lowering/blocking serotonin is therapeutic for cancer

    One of the few studies that is brave enough to point the finger directly at serotonin as a tumor-promoter. Mainstream medicine has acknowledged that serotonin has a growth-promoting effects, but only in one specific tumor - carcinoid syndrome - and refuses to admit that the same growth-promoting...

    Reset immune system after jab?

    Putting out feelers here! Are there any known or theorized ways one could “reset” their immune system after the jab? I haven’t gotten it (and won’t be), but some family and close friends have. I’d love to be able to support them in some way if they decide they want to hop off the booster train.

    Glucose Is Anabolic For Thymus, Opposes Catabolic Effects Of Cortisol

    As most of my readers know, cortisol is a highly catabolic steroid and one of the main agents (estrogen being another) responsible for thymus atrophy with age. These catabolic effects of cortisol can be blocked by progesterone, DHEA, pregnenolone, and even DHT (but not by testosterone). The...
