Endotoxin May Be The Real Cause Of "AIDS"

[Suikerbuik]

May there be a link between high vitamin D levels and healthy intestine?

Sure there is. Normall / high vitamin D without supplementing or without taking other things into account for raising vitamin D, is a sign of health.

This may be one reason why vitamin D is helpful for the gut - i.e. lowers gut serotonin:

Wouldn't that have an effect in lowering brain serotonin, as serotonin is absorbed from the gut, right?

Well, the study was about activating TPH in the brain and inhibiting it in the gut. I think tryptophan absorption is not affected by vitamin D, at least according to the study. So, brain serotonin will rise if the Tryptophan/LNAA ratio is high and enough free tryptophan gets into the brain, regardless if vitamin D is inhibiting serotonin synthesis in the gut.

This must mean that Ray Peat endorses anal.

I wonder if a high metabolic rate let's you get away with unprotected sex in college.

Time to find out.

Watch out college folk. Dave Foster is looking to bum everyone

Well said, Mr. Dukes.

I am sure you will be able to control yourself, Dave :)

Thyroid status of the cell is the primary factor that controls ability of virus to invade/infect that cell. Loading up on methylene blue, niacinamide, aspirin, etc may also serve as a pharmacological condom. I don't know to what degree it has been tested though. People in the first half of the 20th century (and before) did a lot more unprotected sex and had much lower rates of STD infections. Incidence of hypothyroidism was also a lot lower in those times and the tests for it were a lot more rigorous than today (temps, pulse, achilles relaxation reflex back then vs. the TSH and T4/T3 blood tests now).

It has been over ten years since I wrote about "AIDS" (e.g., "Repairing the Immune System," in Cofactors in AIDS and HIV infection, edited by R.R. Watson, l989)

Does anyone have this?

I have read Duesburg's book, and I am certain that he is right. This is one of the biggest medical hoaxes yet. Nobody can answer Duesberg's questions in a straightforward manner, they just start using emotion appeals and distortions.

Gallo got the HIV ball rolling, but it became impossible to stop after AZT. Most Virologist and Burroughs Wellcome will fight tooth and nail to keep the myth alive at this point.

Name calling is the best form of argument in the science world. Everyone knows this! If you don't know this then you're a quack psuedo-scientist, lunatic and possibly a pervert.

All joking aside, I did read about halfway through the Duesberg book. It was very interesting and I thought it was convincing, though I don't have a strong grasp of virology. Books on any subject can be convincing if the reader doesn't have a clue. Even if Duesberg is mostly right, it will be a bit incredible once it all unravels. I wonder how long it will take for that to happen? All the current virologists will probably have to die first. Some of the misconceptions (if they are that) seem to be intertwined with other fields of science, so a lot may have to change for the science world to piece together the alternative views.

It does seem a little odd to me that AID's hasn't spread more than it has.

WHO estimates more than 70 million have been infected. It's harder to catch than a lot of viruses.

The translocation happens in the first place because HIV damages the intestines.

I wouldn't know personally because I've never taken it up the tail pipe (Ouch....um, NO that's EXIT ONLY!!!), but couldn't anal sex result in some tissue damage, mechanically speaking? Like micro-tears that would allow bacteria in to the blood stream that shouldn't be there?

He also says autism may be an endotoxin-associated condition too, so he is proposing treatment with antibiotics for that condition as well.

I can agree with this 100%...effed up guts definitely equals waaaaay more brain/neurological/mood/social anxiety symptoms for me. I go from completely normal to fully retarded depending what foods I eat and a lack of thyroid meds and sunshine.

Wouldn't that have an effect in lowering brain serotonin, as serotonin is absorbed from the gut, right?

The above quote was regarding vitamin D being helpful....but this is exactly why going outside and being in sunny places makes people feel so much better.

Just repeating the obvious here....cuz that's what I do.

I think if endotoxin caused aids, then alcoholics would have the most AIDS.

Lot's of chicks take it up the *** without getting AIDS, so I don't think it has much to do with that.

I think Duesberg has a really solid explanation, though endotoxin would likely make any condition worse.

 

[squanch]

I've never actually read his book, but from what what I could gather online Duesberg acknowledges the presence of the HIV but he doesn't think it causes AIDS? He believes that drugs like amyl nitrite ("poppers"), heroin and certain antiviral drugs given to HIV positive people are responsible for the high AIDS numbers among gays , junkies and HIV positive people receiving "treatment"? And he thinks AIDS is just an umbrella term for a lot of different immune conditions? Is this correct?
The part I don't understand is how he explains the connection between the HIV and AIDS.
HIV + amyl nitrite/heroin/antiviral drugs = AIDS but HIV alone would never cause AIDS? Or would those drugs in HIV negative people still cause AIDS like conditions over time and HIV has nothing to do with it?

 

[Area-1255]

Interesting.

 

[Travis]

He thinks HIV is harmless in the biological sense. In the social sense, HIV can be a death sentence if you are gullible enough to take AZT.

I read the book like 8 years ago, so I am not the best at explaining this. The best place you can go is here: HIV & AIDS - Peter Duesberg

He has really good arguments.

Alcoholics are not more infected with HIV than the general population. However, alcoholics do have a much higher death rate from viral diseases, which supports the role of endotoxin in viral conditions.
As far as transmission during anal sex - the largest study on intra-couple HIV transmission (done in California in the 1990s) found only 5 cases of successful transmission in a population of 65,000 individuals. It concluded that transmission of HIV from female to male is almost impossible, while male to female transmission is highly unlikely. With the risk of being accused of promoting irresponsible behavior I will say that you have a higher chance of dying in car accident than acquiring HIV through heterosexual sex. And if you take cyproheptadine, then the risk becomes even lower.

Duesberg is right, but the bigger fraud is that any viral condition can become deadly when you give chemicals that increase NO. The highest death rate from flu and herpetic encephalitis in the USA is in the group of older males taking Viagra for ED or nitroglycerin for heart angina. Have you seen the ads about shingles (reactivation of chickenpox virus) on TV? Do you think it is coincidence most of the actors are older males, probably taking some kind of drug with pro-NO effects?
