    Quinine - liquid product for R&D

    Just a placeholder thread for now, until I organize all the references I think would be interesting/relevant to post here. For now, a quote from Peat on a recent interview about quinine and inflammation/ACE2, a very long thread/discussion in regards to quinine's anti-serotonin effects, and some...

    Aspirin can slow down the progression of emphysema

    Yet another study, adding to the mountain of evidence that if there is such a thing as a "wonder drug" then aspirin comes as close to it as possible. The study findings are great news not only because emphysema is such a widespread disease, but also because it is considered both progressive and...

    Lactate is a key driver of diabetes/obesity, by promoting inflammation

    A great study, demonstrating that in diabetes (just as in cancer) the so-called Warburg Effect (aerobic glycolysis) is as much a cause of those degenerative conditions as it is an effect of. The study below demonstrated that increased intracellular lactate results in robust increase in systemic...

    High blood PUFA "a specific feature of severe COVID-19 pneumonia"

    The evidence for PUFA being a crucial pathological factor in yet another disease is probably not surprising to my readers. The reason I like this study is that since COVID-19 is still (unfortunately) the main topic of the day in most Western countries, a study discussing PUFA in a COVID-19...

    Exercise causing inflammation

    Hi everyone! Wondering if some of you may be able to shed some light on a pattern I seem to go through. I’ve struggled with weight my whole life, but particularly after having kids. The only time I was really thin was when I was running 3-5kms a day. After discovering peat a while ago I’ve...

    Carboxymethylcellulose, ubiquitous food/drug additive, is highly inflammatory

    This study is a great reminder that we are surrounded by toxins, and that food/drugs/supplements are one of the major sources of those toxins. I already posted several studies demonstrating that industrial citric acid and vitamin C - additive present in virtually all commercial sort drinks and...

    Blocking PUFA metabolism therapeutic for Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

    The rates of MS have been steadily rising over the last several decades. While mainstream medicine claims the cause is "unknown", it is well known that it has an almost perfect inverse association with sunshine exposure, vitamin D levels, aspirin usage, histamine blockers, etc. This suggest an...

    DHT as anti-inflammatory as cortisol, but without the side effects

Despite mainstream medicine doing everything it can to conceal the...

    Heated saturated fats increase inflammation and lead to atherosclerosis?

    My experience so far has been that fried/heated saturated fats (coconut/butter) increase stiffness, pain and inflammation in the body. I believe that interactions is worse if there is some kind of inflammation in the body prior to ingesting the saturated fats (This is problematic to someone with...

    Maasai kids (high milk consumption) are iron deficient with a high prevalence of chronic inflammation and intestinal damage

    This study compares preschoolers from two tribes (Kamba and Maasai). Kamba children on "iron fortified cereal with low milk diet" are healthier than Maasai kids on "high milk diet" 38 percent of the Maasai preschoolers had anaemia, almost all of which was associated with iron deficiency ...

    Endotoxin (LPS) may directly cause cancerization of normal cells

In addition, the study may answer one of the long-standing critiques the medical establishment has always had against the hypothesis that LPS causes cancer (and...

    Uncoupling metabolism/OXPHOS may treat inflammatory conditions

    In several of his articles and interviews, Peat mentioned that one of the reliable signs/symptoms of low metabolism is the presence of low-grade chronic inflammation. Basically, the cell is stuck into a constant (and futile) repair process as it cannot complete it properly after discovering the...

    Serotonin, SSRI drugs may be the cause of IBD, Parkinson's, diabetes, etc.

    A great new study that points the finger straight at serotonin (5-HT). It has been known since the 1940s that not only is 5-HT produced predominantly in the GI tract, but also that elevated serotonin levels are causally linked to a plethora of chronic conditions, especially various inflammatory...

    Low testosterone (T) and/or high estrogen/T ratio predict COVID-19 mortality

    So, there we have it - yet another shameless lie exposed. After claiming completely evidence-free since the beginning of 2020 that high androgen levels are detrimental to males when it comes to COVID-19, mainstream medicine now gets to see its lies/incompetence exposed. Those shameless lies...

    The root cause of all inflammation

    PUFA required for periodontal disease, aspirin may help

Another "new" discover is that...
