Sleep is not the passive act you think of Rather sleep is an energy intensive act of repair, recycling & growth, governed by our energy metabolism Energy and sleep are linked, just like Jing & Jang are Leptin lies at the centre of this integration Here is everything you need

Though in a Parkinson patient, I would defo go for this, for the normies: Start working on your Diaphragm & CNS Your amygdala & fear centres are driving inhalation if CO2 increases. Its a stress signal for them. Gotta recaliber that shit painfully through practicing being calm
Inhaling CO2 rich air helps treat Parkinson's disease by increasing blood flow (bohr effect) to the brain Also effective for clearing accumulated Alzheimer toxins

Prostaglandins (PGE2) as a driver of T-cell dysfunction & surpression, protected by Vit E This vitamins seems to be front and central when it comes to the function of thymus gland as noted previously What makes this more interesting: Macrophages house huge amounts of iron

Heavy metals indirectly can cause harm to thymus gland via expression of MTs and lowering zinc bioavailability Whats interesting: The effects of MT are double edged: High inflammation + MTs = thymic aging as no zinc available at all No inflammation + MTs = protect against

Folate can be paradoxically deficient even when serum folate levels (reflecting methylfolate) are high. This is caused by many nutrients being deficient — vitamin B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, vitamin C/E, serine, iodine, molybdenum, phosphorus, selenium, iron, sodium, copper, magnesium,
Are you depressive or just undermethylating, low folate, iron-copper dysregulated? Dr Walsh, who treated thousands of cases noted that 75% of depressed people had either one (or overlapping) of these contributing factors to depression, which improved after addressing them After

Metallothioneins (MT) & food allergies are an incredible link between heavy metals, cell redox & nutrient saturation MTs are on of the first line defenders of heavy metals such as mercury, lead or cadmium. After GSH has been used up, MTs step in to support heavy metal excretion

Psychological disorders where undermethylation might be the cause: - OCD - Autism - Depression - Schizophrenia - Anti Social Personality Disorders Checking bloods in these people is of utmost importance: B9/12/Homocysteine/Histamine/CBC These can give valuable insights into

Dr William Walsh: "Nutrient overloads often times cause more harm than nutrient deficiencies" He was a doctor pioneering the landscape of psychological disorders using nutrient therapy to treat common ailments like depression, OCD, schizophrenia The statement beautifully

If you cringe out hearing the words "nervous system regulation" hear me out: There is a difference between "taking it easy & chilling" to induce a parasympathetic response and Using pharmacology & brain neuroplasticity to rewire the fear circuitry within you powering a pro

Increasing the intake of all the fat soluble vitamins will add vital years to your life The modern environment & food system is literally made to deprive you off of these miracle compounds We increase our PUFA intake which zaps our Vitamin E We stopped nose to tail eating which

If you have low neutrophils and abnormal markers of glucose metabolism, you got a direct link to these two Glycemic control is steering the ship of how these highly important immune cells function If you got high insulin, high fasting glucose, these cells will stop working

Don't sleep on B Vitamins when trying to get rid of chronic infections, fixing immune dysregulation, autoimmunity etc. Each one plays a unique role in the overall coordination of the immune system. First Response (Innate): B1: Protects neutrophils → faster infection

Glycemic control is one of the most important interventions in any health protocol The impact it has on literally everything is wild: - energy system - nervous system - gut microbiome - immune system - antioxidant system - cardiovascular system - kidney & electrolyte system

Having high urea on your bloods is one sure way to fuel immune dysfunction, leading to chronic infections down the road Treating your kidneys in these cases is of utmost importance to lower the burden: Vit C, Sodium, Potassium, Cranberry, Parsley, Fascia work,

Micronutrients and their effects on the immune system. Most notably the fat soluble vitamins need a highlight as they are either chronically low in most, or ratios needed are skewed (e.g PUFA:Vit E ratio) Eating oysters, (cod) liver, orange juice/ peel and tanning will provide

Chronic low cortisol or a missing cortisol awakening response is crucial in limiting autoimmunity from developing This "stress" hormone if pulsed right (high AM, low PM, pulsatile releases through hormetic stressors) is massive when it comes to coordination of the immune,

I started doing gratitude before meals, as an easy way to improve digestion, as it engages the rest & digest branch What turned out is that since then my mood stabilized even more. There is less variety in how I feel. I simply feel good all the time, despite right now being in a

"Nervous system dysregulation" = — Demyelination and/or insufficient myelinogenesis — Low neurotrophic factors (eg., BDNF) — Neurotransmitter imbalances (eg., GABA/glutamate) — Mitochondrial dysfunction — Dysregulated ion channels and concentration gradients — Disrupted
So overrated how everything is just "nervous system dysregulation". It's quipped by everyone like this just means stress. Nerves in your body have a complex system. They can be impacted by random things, like insulin resistance or a calcium/magnesium deficiency - causing

If you suffer from any immune related issue (autoimmunity, allergies, inflammatory conditions) loading up on Vit A, D & Zinc has to be top priority All three have an impact on transcription & translation within the stem cells which then turn into cells of the innate or adaptive
