Low Dose Naltrexone The Miracle Molecule : Naltrexone is an opioid blocker. At 50mg it is used in alcohol addiction. At low dose (1.5–4.5mg), it's used off-label for: → Fibromyalgia → ME/CFS → MS → Crohn's → Long COVID Same molecule. Completely different mechanism. Thread 🧵

@Outdoctrination Great tool and when people are hyperventilating they exhale too much CO2, you can also increase your CO2 levels by doing breath-hold.

The humble paper bag is a much more powerful tool for your health than anyone realizes. I've seen it literally pulled people out of crises within a minute. There's a reason breathing into a bag is cliche for people under stress - it really works. A lack of oxygen delivery to your tissues can trigger the sympathetic nervous system and release excessive adrenaline. This is what causes anxiety, restlessness, being scatterbrained or insomnia. Bag breathing allows you to recirculate your own carbon dioxide (CO2) back into your respiration. Why is this beneficial? CO2 in your bloodstream helps displace oxygen from hemoglobin, meaning more of it gets delivered to your cells. Better tissue oxygenation and higher CO2 = parasympathetic takes back over. Also a great hack to chill out before bed. The key is to do it until you feel like you really need some air, then release. You'll get almost a buzz of relaxation.

First time trying molecular hydrogen. The science is quite strong.

@NutriDetect Of course people don’t react well to liver, they eat GRAIN fed beef liver. Eating blood, liver or milk from grain fed animal is very toxic but eating grass fed beef liver from times to times is not an issue.

Peaters get mad and call me names Carnivores get mad and call me names Toxic livers make people angry I waste no time on getting angry, I simply waste no more time and energy on them There are no coincidences Toxicity and behaviors are connected

I’m astonished by people’s inability to understand the nuance involved within mainstream medicine If anyone should be salty towards the mainstream medical framework, look no further than myself with my own experiences And yet, I still want to provide a balanced perspective rooted in truth because I work my ass off to understand where the mainstream shines and where it shits the bed. I aim to uphold the value of discernment I’m as anti-vaccine across the board as anyone. I’m anti-iatrogenesis as much as the next person. I’m anti-cascade of interventions for its own sake But I’m not surprised why some of you retards get made fun of within mainstream circles, you make all of us look terrible No wonder only a handful of us in this space have longevity Sometimes, you should stay in your lane because what you excel at is getting in the fucking way of other people who are serious about making change in this world

@zaidkdahhaj Weak people need to be extreme, they don’t like nuance

This SolBrah syndrome is out of hand

Hbot provides lasting results even one year post intervention.

AI is revolutionizing the world. Unemployment will skyrocket, half of all businesses will collapse because technical skills become far easier to acquire. The only way to protect yourself is to have something truly original and stand out with it.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can be a very effective tool in ME/CFS. ➡️ Increase mitochondria biogenesis ➡️ Normalizes thalamic hyperconnectivity medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Most oral bacteria should be aerobic. One effective hack is to use a mouthwash made by mixing water with hydrogen peroxide. Anaerobic bacteria do not tolerate oxygen exposure, so increasing oxygen levels in the mouth can help limit their growth.

People with ME/CFS have lower cortisol levels. This is the first step toward understanding the pathophysiology of PEM.

Interesting post, although I disagree on the link with low carb diet. Another underrating factor is low cortisol, which can cause a wide range of symptoms. Cortisol plays a key role in ketones production. I'd encourage everyone to check free cortisol via in a 24 hours urine test.

What If Cortisol Is The Hero And Not The Villian? How many times have you read: "My cortisol is through the roof." "I can't lose weight because cortisol." "I need to heal my adrenals." "Have you tried ashwagandha?" Nobody actually seems to know what cortisol does. They just know it's bad and they have too much of it Here's the sad truth: that's about 10% accurate Cortisol isn't the villain. A broken cortisol RHYTHM is the villain. And the thing breaking it in most people isn't their job, their relationships, or their mindset It's their environment Lets vindicate this hormone (THREAD 🧵)

@HealthyAlfred Bpc 157 was the best intervention for my gut

You think your long COVID is permanent. You’re wrong. A 2021 hypothesis paper in Medical Hypotheses proposed BPC-157 as a direct counter to spike protein damage: shredded gut lining, clogged microvessels, suffocating mitochondria. It started when the virus stripped your blood vessels. By the time you couldn’t climb stairs without sitting, the spike protein had been rewiring you for months. Every day it’s already: → Tearing your gut lining apart → Clogging the microvessels in your brain → Suffocating your mitochondria You didn’t fail to recover. Your body never got the signal to start. Long COVID doesn’t plateau. It deepens. Your micro-clots are getting closer to macro-clots. Your gut leaks more autoimmune triggers every month. Your mitochondria are dying — and dead mitochondria don’t grow back. The window is closing. You’ve watched friends recover. Family stop believing you’re sick. Yourself disappear. Every month you wait is tissue you’ll never get back. BPC-157 rebuilds the endothelium, repairs the gut, activates VEGFR2, crosses the blood-brain barrier. It counters the exact damage destroying you — but only while there’s still tissue left to save. This isn’t a virus problem. It’s a repair problem with an expiration date. And nobody is repairing it for you. I wish I’d known years ago. Comments below.

Aloe vera is goat for skin issues

@matthewbaszucki When you’re in ketosis, you’re forced to use the mitochondria, which can’t produce energy without certain vitamins like B2.

@Vital_Alchemy Why is that?

If you want to try a ketogenic diet for mental health and don't know where to start, here is the actual list. But ofc these are just ideas, so do what works for you!! Keep carbohydrates under 30g per day. This is the most important thing. Carbs are in more foods than you think. Read labels. Eat beef, lamb, steak, eggs, butter, heavy cream, fatty fish, hard cheeses, avocado, macadamia nuts, olive oil, bacon. These are your staples. (or try pure carnivore, only animals foods, some people feel better doing that) Avoid bread, pasta, rice, sugar, fruit juice, beer, most sauces and condiments unless you check the label. Track your ketones. A blood ketone meter is about $30. Test twice a day for the first few months. You want to be above 1.5 millimoles per liter. Above 2.0 is better for serious mental illness. Eat in a 6-hour window if possible. Two meals a day. Your first meal at noon, your second at 6pm. The 18 hours of fasting in between keeps insulin low and ketones high. Do hard cardio. Swimming, running, biking. Your ketones will dip right after exercise and then spike back up higher than before. This is normal and good. Eat enough fat. If your ketones are low and your carbs are already under 30g, you are probably eating too much protein and not enough fat. Add butter, MCT oil, beef tallow. Start here, then figure the rest out as you go.
