    https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11155790/ first post for a lurker coming out from behind the curtain.... I'm Interested in the takeaway from the above summary. It's something I have been suspecting when observing my partners Rheumatoid arthritis. Its been severe for years, controlled with...

    Rheumatoid Arthritis patients have higher serotonin and cortisol levels

    In this study they looke at some blood markers in patients with RA. As it turns out they have slighlty higher cortisol and way higher serotonin: their serotonin level was 3 times higher! Their melatonin level was a lot lower than that of the control group, which indicates less downstream...

    Vitamin E may prevent, treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by restoring the gut barrier

    This is one of those studies where the most important finding is not directly stated, but implied. Namely, if healing the gut barrier, as the study says, may prevent/treat RA then the condition is most likely tied to the microbiome in our GI tract. More specifically, to the byproducts of the...

    Gut bacteria causes rheumatoid arthritis (RA)...and likely all other "autoimmune" conditions

    After decades of fraudulent theories on the origins and development of RA, the study below seems to finally admit the obvious - RA is not an "autoimmune" disorder but simply the body producing antibodies to specific pathogens found mostly in the gut, which, however, have managed to translocate...

    The root cause of all inflammation

    This part is so interesting to me because it somehow aligns with the narrative and approach of Dr. Trevor Marshall [Excluding the VIT D part - of course XD]. So Trevor Marshall basically recommends using angiotensin II receptor blocker [OLMASARTAN] to raise and improve the innate immune system...

    Mom: Rheumatoid Arthritis Following Jab?

    Hi all, My mom, 49, has been told she needs to see a rheumatologist for suspected rheumatoid arthritis. She's been treated for carpal tunnel several times over the last 10 years (surgery and corticosteroid shots), but in the last couple months things have changed -- she can't open her hands /...

    Endotoxin (LPS) causes rheumatoid arthritis...and COVID-19

    A great new study, which is perhaps the first to directly point the finger at endotoxin as perhaps the main cause of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RA is an "autoimmune" condition and not only shares symptoms with other similar conditions such as Lupus, psoriasis, MS, etc, but now all of them are...

    Seeking Advice: Rheumatoid Arthritis And IBS/Anxiety

My mother is in her mid-50s and has been suffering from severe Rheumatoid Arthritis for as long as I can remember. She told me she has been on Prednisone for the majority of my life (I'm 31). She was...

    Simple Intestinal Antiseptic As A Cure For Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)

    The role of endotoxin in RA and other "autoimmune" conditions has been discussed by Ray many times in his articles and interviews. Apparently, the connection was firmly established as causative back in the early 20th century and complete cures were often readily obtained using a simple phenolic...

    Baking Soda Is A Potent Anti-inflammatory, May Treat Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)

    The etiology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) as an inflammatory disease is well-established even in mainstream medicine. However, the current treatments are downright barbaric and involve the potent suppression of the immune system to the point that the patient is at a constant risk of...

    Rheumatoid Arthritis May Be Caused By The Same Bacteria That Causes Crohn's

    I posted a few studies on the now VERY likely causative link between a bacteria called MAP (Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis - Wikipedia) and the pathology of Crohn's. It seems that FDA is finally taking notice and there is a clinical trial for treating Crohn's with antibiotics...

    Role Of Nervous System In Rheumatoid Arthritis – Acetylcholine And TNF-alpha

    The inflammatory condition, called rheumatoid arthritis or rheumatism, is marked by degeneration and pain in the joints, muscles, and connective tissues. The disease shares many traits with other inflammatory “autoimmune” conditions like multiple sclerosis and lupus, but is especially associated...

    "Natural" Gut Flora May Cause Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Lupus

    I must have gotten over 500 emails over the last year angrily reproaching me for talking negatively on the Danny Roddy shows about the "beneficial" gut flora in humans. I even got a few angry phone calls from actual MD professionals saying that the "science" behind beneficial effects of the...
