Cares Act 2020 required removing guaifenesin from asthma meds

 21.7.12: web.health/diet/

Cares Act 2020 required removing guaifenesin from asthma meds:

. why was primatene recalled?

a competitor claimed that the Cares Act 2020

required removing guaifenesin;

possibly due to it being known that

guaifenesin may cause birth defects.

but that was known at least as far back as 2003.

T cells can reveal a covid infection even if antibodies waned

2021.8.4, 9.15: health/immunity/covid-19/

T cells can reveal a covid infection even if antibodies waned

9.15: summary:

. if you had a mild case of covid,

or it has been a while since you've been infected,

your antibody levels may be too low to measure,

but your T cells can still be measured

to determine if you've been exposed to covid virus.

. the CDC says you should get the vaccine

even if you have been infected,

so what's the use in knowing your status?

. you may be less likely to get sick again

if the vaccine doesn't cover some variants,

but the infection does cover the variants.

. you may want reassurance after vaccination

that even if the vaccine doesn't work on your variant,

you might still be protected by your infection.

. if you believe that, the CDC reminds you,

there are significant risks to getting infected;

not just death but also strange chronic illness;

so it's safer to get vaccinated than infected.

. even for children who are prone to having

bad reactions to the vaccine,

there are even more reactions to the virus.

. without any early treatment options available

(whether by politics or science)

there will be many more deaths from virus

than there will be deaths from vaccine.

slow-carb fish eaters less prone to severe covid

"Our models estimate that nearly a 

third of COVID-19 cases would have

been prevented if one of two exposures

-- [uhealthy] diet or deprivation -- 

were not present." 

natural immunity after infection persists even with low antibodies #covid19

2021.7.26, 8.31: news.health/immunity/covid-19/

natural immunity after infection persists even with low antibodies:

summary:

. it is shown that after a covid-19 infection

there is long-lasting immunity

even when the antibody count is low

because covid-19 is slowly developing

thereby giving the memory cells time to react

by growing more antibodies when needed.

. the CDC recommends even those who have been infected

should get the vaccine; apparently because,

the recently vaccinated with their higher antibodies,

will be quicker at stopping the spread of the virus

than people who have survived an infection and then

slowly make more antibodies when reinfected.

. the politics of this question are based on

a dispute over the likelihood of vaccine injury.

is the risk from having African ancestry or being carb-intolerant? #health #covid19

health/immunity/covid-19/

is the risk from having African ancestry or being carb-intolerant?:

2021.2.4: 

. africs (those with some African ancestry)

are said to be more prone to severe covid-19: 

is it happening even to africs on a slow carb diet?

(a diet low in sugars and baked goods).

. we know that obese euros (whites)

are also prone to covid;

obesity comes from being carb intolerant,

ie, not adapting well to the 

chosen level of glycemic load.

. the problem with the Western diet

is that it has both a high glycemic load

and is high in fats and stress 

that cause insulin resistance.

. if africs are more prone to insulin resistance,

they need to compensate by using less carb's.

my covid-19 antibody test is negative in November after feeling hit in March

health/immunity/covid-19/my covid-19 antibody test is negative:

summary:

. I got a covid-19 antibody test 

from giving blood to the redcross;

and it came back negative,

but while that could mean I never got exposed,

it could also mean I had a mild case of covid-19

where my immune response made very few antibodies,

and within 8 months, I make undetectable levels.

unlisted preservative #tBHQ might provoke #allergies, #obesity

unlisted preservative tBHQ might provoke allergies, obesity:
. conventional preventive health science
has warned us to avoid fat
claiming it was the main source of
both cancer and heart disease,
whereas alternative medicine warned
that the primary problem was from
a diet high in grains and sugars.
. here is another example of convention
being right for the wrong reasons:
. it turns out that most added fat
in the many processed foods in the usa
contains hidden preservatives
which might have adverse affects
including food allergies and obesity.

Dr.Oz #arthritis cure like #GAPS #diet

2.23: web.med/arthritis/Dr.Oz arthritis cure like GAPS diet:
Dr.Oz`guest: Jacob Teitelbaum, MD:
The 6-Week Arthritis Cure:

Rule out and treat infections and food allergies,
which can aggravate arthritis.
I usually treat my rheumatoid arthritis patients
with the antibiotic doxycycline
as this has been shown to be helpful in several studies.
The question is whether it
acts as an anti-inflammatory on its own
or is killing an infection causing the arthritis.

. in this show Dr. Oz talks about
a cure for juvenile arthritis
that was reported by the nytimes 2013.02 .

retroviral AIDS for cats (FIV)

5.11: news.health/retroviral AIDS for cats (FIV):

feline acquired immune deficiency syndrome (FAIDS)

. the infected cat's saliva enters the other cat's bloodstream.
. endemic in some large wild cats, such as African lions.
Unlike domestic cats, these species do not necessarily
exhibit symptoms, perhaps because
they have developed evolutionary mutations
that confer resistance.

casual transmission:

It has never been established in HIV research
that an intermediate host, such as a mosquito or flea,
can transmit productive infection [Webb],
and the same is believed to be the case with FIV.
...
. bloodborne HIV in a syringe
can survive outside the human body
for periods up to several weeks;
viability is “influenced by virus titre,
volume of blood, ambient temperature,
exposure to sunlight and humidity” [Thompson].
While cause for concern among human drug users,
this is of little practical relevance to felines,
although the variables cited undoubtedly play some role in
an exposed environment as they do in a hypodermic syringe.
FIV, like HIV, is not particularly sensitive to
ordinary room temperature,
but is very sensitive to such variables as
pH level [AIDSMap],
a fact which accounts, for instance,
for inactivation by stomach acid.
...
Blood, of course, contains {FIV, HIV} viruses
and can be shed.
Drying does not seem to affect the infectivity of HIV,
and the same is probably true of FIV [AIDSMap].

mosquitoes not a problem (whew!):

. it is not possible to get HIV from mosquitoes.
When taking blood, mosquitoes do not inject blood
from any previous person.
The only thing that a mosquito injects is saliva,
which acts as a lubricant
and enables it to feed more efficiently.

cancer risk related to autoimmune risk

8.6: news.health/cancer risk related to autoimmune risk:

. tumor necrosis factor helps fight cancer,

and suppressing it can also suppress autoimmune disorders

-- tho' now they are finding it raises risk of leukemia .

. this gave me the idea that

autoimmune disorders might be a symptom of

the body having to raise its tumor necrosis factor

in order to fight high levels of tumor creations;

so that if one could reduce cancer risk

there might also be a reduced risk of autoimmune disorders .

9.5: news.health/hot peppers raise risk of cancer:

. Capsaicin is weakly mutagenic in the Ames test, and a co-carcinogen in rats,

enhancing gastric carcinogenesis.

Ten percent of mice exposed to capsaicin developed duodenal cancer,

versus 0% of those not exposed. A study in Mexico found that consumers of chili pepper

had a more than 5-fold increase in risk of gastric cancer

(age- and sex-adjusted odds ratio of 5.49; 95% CI 2.7-11.1) compared to nonconsumers;

high-level consumers had an odds ratio of 17.11 (95% CI 7.8-37.6).

In India and other Southeast Asian countries, eating of chili peppers is associated with

oral submucosal fibrosis, a precancerous condition of undetermined etiology.(7,22-24) .
