I share research, clinical insight, and lived experience here. Thoughtful discussion is welcome, and I’m always open to different points of view. That said, a few boundaries: ❌No profanity ❌No personal attacks ❌No entitlement or demands ❌No aggressive tone If you’re here

A naturopathic clinical pearl: if you feel foggy, bloated, or tired after eating gluten, it might be due to fungal overgrowth in the gut. Peer reviewed research show: Candida can mimic gliadin, the gluten protein fragment, causing your immune system to confuse one for the other.

Another fascinating irl example of thiamine therapy: directly changing blood sugar behavior in a diabetic Better control. Within days. (TTFD + benfotiamine) No vitamin suggestion from any medical professional afaict [DO, DR, endocrinologist, nutritionist, etc. None.]

Your child is not broken. Their body is protecting. And it can heal.⚡ Yesterday I was at the British Network for Functional Medicine conference. The standout talk came from Dr Olivia Lesslar, Australian doctor and psychoneuroimmunology researcher. 🧠 She studies how the

@elonmusk Have I done something to upset you? My feed’s gone completely mad - angry strangers, endless nonsense, nothing I ever asked for. I’ve spent the past day blocking, muting, doing everything short of an exorcism, and nothing has changed. And if one more person tells me to

having spent an hour clearing the utter rubbish that is on my feed today- nothing has changed - my feed continues to be filled with utter nonsense of ZERO interest to me. I actually can’t believe there are people who waste their lives posting such utter disgusting, violent,

Great question! Mould ramps up oxidative stress and forces your detox systems to work overtime. Those systems run on B2, so the more toxins your body has to clear, the faster your riboflavin gets used up.

The least-known sign of low B2 (riboflavin)? Cracks at the corners of the mouth. Red, sore, slow to heal. Other signs your cells are running low: ⚡️fatigue, ⚡️light sensitivity, ⚡️burning eyes, ⚡️migraines, ⚡️magenta glossy tongue, ⚡️poor iron or B6 activation.

Most adults now living with ME, chronic fatigue, long COVID, or unexplained immune crashes were never diagnosed as children. But many would meet today’s criteria for PANS or PANDAS. Same infections. Same immune chaos. Same neuropsychiatric flare patterns, just given

I’ve been reviewing the new Metals and Minerals DNA report from Lifecode. It’s clear, detailed, and full of information that actually matters for autism, PANS and PANDAS. We often focus on inflammation, detox, mitochondria, but none of it works if the electrical and chemical

Reports of OCD among under-25s triple in 10 years https://t.co/htKZY0mnKW Lots of reasons why including perhaps something called PANS (Paediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) which implies an infection link for some. Oh and the pandemic centred on a neurotropic virus...

Our Lancet paper on non-coeliac gluten sensitivity is out! One of nutrition’s most misunderstood conditions - so we asked: is gluten really the problem? Big thanks to co-authors Daisy Jonkers, Carolina Ciacci & Imran Aziz @shefgastro Read here: https://t.co/wJXIiPmrsO

UPDATE Good news: Tom has now been offered a more flexible and paid role by @asda. 🙌🏻 Credit to the BBC’s @kevfitz21 for covering this story so well. 👏🏻 Perhaps one of the wider results of it will be more employers finding out about our Bee Neuroinclusive Code of Practice. 👍🏻

We run urine organic acid testing on almost every child who comes through our clinic. Autism. PANS. PANDAS. Thousands of cases over the years. Different triggers. Same pattern. The same marker keeps flashing red. 5-HIAA. Raised in over 80% of them. That’s serotonin

Not being able to tolerate more than a few stimuli among ME/CFS and Long COVID patients is an area that is terribly understudied in neurology. Could you share similar experiences of your own to show that this is not rare and deserves more scientific attention?

This is a map of repetition among all symptoms in the DSM-5. The majority of symptoms are found across disorders, yet we treat them as separate entities.

Through my clinic I’ve met thousands of autistic individuals. The pattern is clear. They are some of the most beautiful souls I’ve ever encountered. Depth. Kindness. Integrity. So many carry a level of empathy that would humble most people. What they crave most is belonging.
