    Acetic acid (vinegar) as a source of energy?

    This might be a stupid question but why is that we can't use vinegar / acetic acid as a dietary energy source? After all, after carbs have been broken down into pyruvate, pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA which is then fed into the Krebs cycle as fuel. Peat has written about how butyric...

    Metabolism May Be Older Than Life Itself And Can Start Spontaneously

    If this is indeed true I am not sure how can modern medicine continue to deny the primary role of metabolism in the human organism. The picture so far suggests that metabolism appeared first, then RNA and finally DNA. The same group published two studies. The first one showed that glycolysis can...

    CFS/ME Once Again Confirmed As A Metabolic Disorder

    I posted previously about recent research indicating that CFS/ME is likely due to hypometabolism caused by environmental stress. CFS Is Likely Hypometabolism Triggered By Environmental Stress The earlier studies found lower activity of the enzyme PDH, which is the rate-limiting step for entrance...
