Why would you even watch this? This is just another mass entertainment to make people feel better about themselves by watching people who are sick....just wrapped in some nicely copywrited jibber jabber.

Was your TSH above 2.0? A lot of people walk around with subclinical hypothyroidism never put on levothyroxine because they don't make it into the textbook values. Do you recall your T3 value? DId they find any thyroid antibodies? This is a REALLY interesting combination. As far as I know clomiphene is given to women with PCOS, with amenorrhea or with anovulation. I've never heard about it being prescribed to a male. How is it combating reversed T3? Clomiphene regulates LH and FSH which regulate Oestrogen. Are you sure this wasn't given for something else? DOes your doctor think you are producing too much oestrogen? That would make sense. You could be aromatising all your testosterone into oestrogen, Lot of men have this issue. Reverse T3 you'll see raised in periods of prolonged starvation and stress. Have you done any excessive fasting or gone through a rough period recently like bereavement, accident or so? Liothyronine is basically a synthetic T3. It's interesting, in UK you would only get T4 at best. Was your T3 low? Regarding supplements: were you prescribed DHEA? What is OPC?

Seconded. Gymnastic rings are an amazing tool. Painful and hard but you will see results quicker than with TRX or rubber bands. The core is at the centre of every exercise as you try to stabilise them which is an added benefit. And you can do a lot of beginner moves as well as highly advanced ones.

Having a doctor with permanent erection operate on you will make you reconsider leaving your quarantine!

Needing to be a "star" is a pretty orange trait to me already. High consciousness people don't need to be the "top", the best and the most popular. The alpha machoism is a self-limiting vicious circle that never ends. Once you are alpha, all betas will be looking to steal your crown. It is a life in fear and neurotic desire to be the best. It can never last. You can become incredibly good in a sport without needing to be a superstar. Lot of highly conscious people do.

probs not waste 10,000 hours on video games

Anything above 1.5g of Sodium (not NaCl) is more than 99% of people will need. Research on sodium is fairly conflicted with a lot of deliberate misinformation. Even lot of the large systemic studies have been looking at "recollection of data" rather than measuring people's intake in a lab. This is industry-prefer way to test as recollection (e.g. people write how much they THINK they ate) is usually headings towards underestimation rather than overestimation. A true study on effects of sodium require 24 hour urine monitoring for several weeks and to this day only a handful of such studies have been conducted as they are time consuming, expensive and quite restrictive to the participants. Also you cannot use people who are ill, diabetic or have kidney disease as they will skew your results. Another popular tactic for industry-funded research. This was a nice systemic review https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jch.12877 of very few studies that met the criteria IN SUMMARY : health was improved as sodium intake was decreased. The group who faired the best in terms of cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular mortality was the group with the intake of 1.2 - 1.5 grams of sodium (which translates to 3-4 grams of salt). Anything above 1.5 of sodium generally is unnecessary for majority of the population and as your numbers go higher, you are risking a self-harm.

In Eastern Europe where I grew up, people would often take cold showers simply because it took ages to heat up water with the ancient heating boiler system. It is still considered completely normal to only take cold showers in the morning. Lot of people go to swim in rivers in winter or just lay in the snow. I think the cold exposure not only builds your immunity but also resilience to stress and increases your pain threshold. I remember when my grandfather challenged me to stand barefoot in snow. I was crying after 30 seconds, he stood there for probably 5 minutes and than just got bored. .....or maybe he just had early diabetic neuropathy in his feet...

It was not naturally the food per see but the methods of adaptations. Eating meat had a lot to do with it but it was the hominid needing to learn to hunt, to track the pray to observe its behaviour to come up with strategies for separating the weak animals, creating tools, adapting new shelters etc. It wasn't the fruit and it wasn't the meat necessarily, it was the entire evolution, the change in climate and the constant need to adapt. If there was a thread from a neighbouring tribe, defence strategies would have to be considered, people would sleep in shifts, there was always someone guarding the fire. Reductionism such as saying fruit grew our brains is usually missing the large picture.

The only way to minimize the risk of vaccination is not to get vaccinated. That being said, The cases where vaccination has a negative consequence are so rare that it is nearly impossible to establish any correlation. If vaccination was causing disease in the majority of people, it would have been picked up a long time ago. Medical doctors can report the occurrence of new diseases to the government in the same way all COVID19 cases are reported. These data are compiled and managed so if there is suddenly an increase in children having a certain disease in a certain area at a certain time, there will be an investigation. Yes, there are the rare occurrences of suspected autism and people developing the disease they were vaccinated of but you are looking at less than 0.001% cases. There are lots of rare genetic occurrences where people simply develop certain diseases because their genes have been mutated in prenatal state, maybe the mom was exposed to excessive mercury or lead or there was a familiar mutation that after 1000 years took hold and developed into something rare. There are people who can die from eating bread and nuts and other never have symptoms. What I'm trying to say is that we cannot discredit the component of individual physiology and that some individuals are just so weak, ill and immunocompromised that a vaccine may kill them. At the same time children born by caesarean section without breastfeeding or children born to traumatised mothers have increased risk of autism, and schizophrenia. Now if a kid born through c-section that was never breastfed and put on a cycle of antibiotics right after birth gets vaccinated with DPT and develops autism, how are you going to figure out what was the cause. You can't. The point is that vaccines are useful and they have a purpose in medicine. Eradication of many diseases was largely due to vaccination development. Same as antibiotics they have saved hundreds of millions of lives but they should not be abused such as giving newborns 10 vaccines or using antibiotics on someone coming with common flu....that is an atrocity. The amount of aluminium in a single vaccine is so slight that you should be more worried about cooking with older utensils, using aluminium cans, putting tomato sauce on a pan, eating fish and seafood, eating factory-farmed food, pesticides on cheap fruit & vegetables, living within a mile from a busy street, drinking water in a city from a tap, using paints, sanitisers and cleaning chemicals, using deodorants, perfumes and cheap cosmetics....the list goes on. We can go crazy over a few heavy metals in a shot of vaccine yet completely disregard all the other sources. I'm not going to disregard the point that vaccines are a multibillion industry with heavy lobby and a lot of hypocrisy and devilry by the big pharma. But we shouldn't dump everything in single bag. Not all the discoveries of modern medicine are harmful. People can die from eating too much magnesium or turmeric .....

Let it go. It is not your responsibility to cater to everyone's feeling and emotions. He did deserve an explanation and provided that you gave him an explanation, any immature response such as "radio silence" only portraits their levels of emotional development. Move along with your life

Funny how these threads always end up in pro-vegan and against-vegan polarisation. Vegan Gains has turned a lot of people towards healthier lifestyle and has shed more light on the way human beings treat animals than anyone else on youtube maybe besides Freelee and Durianrider years ago before they become the sprite-promoter and the hairy jungle girl. Yet his militant and inconsiderate approach has given rise to many opponents of the moment and have also alienated a lot of people who would have otherwise been attracted if they came across someone like Derek Simnet instead. JP at least has the common decency to always say that his approach is "not a medical advice " and that he is not an expert where his daughter is just selling flat-out lies and misinformation to people. Elimination diets are effective in many cases and have been widely used for a variety of conditions but the one thing in common is that they are finite. Usually up to 3 months. With the exception of coeliac disease and gluten. Anyone selling a life-long elimination diet is either deluded themselves or does not have their client's/patients recovery as highest priority and hence is just trying to make money of them. Protocols for the autoimmune disease have to be tailored to each individual person and can only be done after fully understanding the person, their life, their background, their medical conditions, pharmaceutical history and any aggravating factor. Immediate reduction of symptoms after days is clear sign that disease has only been suppressed not healed as healing of something that has been developing for a decade does not happen overnight.

I wonder how do we escape 5G in years to come unless we can all move to a mountain reservoirs somewhere, the coverage will dominate the entire country. Lots of lobby and petitions going against but they probably won't be able to stop them in the end.

You can't. People will project on to you even if you are the most generous, loving and kindhearted person. There is always something they will project. It is the Don Quijote's battle against windmills. Thank them for their opinion but make nothing of it. It is easy to separate genuine constructive criticism with the intention of uplifting the other that comes from the place of love and caring and criticism or projection that is just shooting from the hip. This form bears no value and depicts current emotional and spiritual state of the person projecting rather than something you did

careful with vitamin D megadosing. Vitamin D increases the production of ACE2 protein that the new SARS coronavirus 2 uses to enter the cell. Taking 150,000 IU unless you suffer from extreme osteoporosis along with calcium and K2 is actually a bit dangerous as there is a chance of toxicity.

There is a rare condition called aquagenic urticaria where your skin reacts to water basically. You should speak to your doctor and see what they think. I have no idea how that is treated but could be like @pluto said due to chlorination.

I think NAC is more therapeutic than preventative. For people who either have a glutathione deficiency, cancer, toxicity or any other condition that is devastating their antioxidant defences, NAC can help as long as the other amino acids for glutathione synthesis ( glutamate, glycine) are present. Or if there is a genetic snip on a gene responsible for glutathione production. In terms of prevention or supplementing "just in case" you would probably be better of ensuring you eat a sufficient amount of dietary protein to have all glutathione precursors as well as cofactors (B6 and few other, don't remember anymore)

clinical experience I guess

Robert Morse ND talked about this in many of his videos, he says that the only true colour is blue and brown, he says everything else is distorted by body being unhealthy and storing excessive mucous in the cranial area. I don't know how much I believe that but what if.........

@remember but ofcourse, the basic precautions come first. I think most of us have already received all there is to receive on that side. Now we are looking deeper what else we can do in case our first line of defences (social avoidance / hygiene / face protection) fail. For a lot of people this is a learning curve. agreed

Reset the board and start from the scratch. Ask yourself, "What is the one most important habit I want to adopt right now?" Once you know the answer ask yourself: "What are the practical step for me to start implementing it every day"? Draw a roadmap: It could be something int terms of: 1. Define the best time of the day : 7:00 every morning 2. Define the length: 15 minutes for a start 3. Define the place: My living room sofa 4. What do I do to prevent distraction: turn off phone, close windows and blinds, switch off my PC And finally, what worked for me was: "what happens if I skip a day?" This year, I have set myself a penalty of sending £20 to an organisation I hate if I skip my meditation. I have not skipped a single one yet, proud to say. And stay on this one habit for 1-2 month. Once you feel you have achieved consistency, you can look into implementing another. As mentioned by guys before, don't try to start too many or they will all fail and create a lot of pressure. It is also important not to compare yourself with others and when people say they have all these awesome habits etc....many of them are just full of shit.

This is not quick money, Chris is extremely well - educated PHD researcher. All his articles and videos are properly referenced and you can read the research yourself. The stuff he talks about is high-end nutritional science. I do agree that a lot of shit products are popping up but this product is fairly amazing is you are a bit more geeky personality who wants to understand how the virus gets in the body and hijacks your immune system defences and some evidence-based tips on what you can do.

Being overweight or obese is the most common cause worldwide for sleep apnea. But looking at your picture, I suppose that's not an issue so further investigation in the sleep-clinic should be done. Sleep apnea is no fun so start by working with the professional institution and ensure there is nothing else going on. Have you had any investigation whether it is the obstructive or central one? The later could be neuroological, or related to ongoing cardiovascular disease or respiratory condition. Best get that all investigated.

Let's share some tips on how to keep yourself healthy. Statistically it is likely that many of us will contract the virus at some point however a healthy adaptive immune system will be able to launch a massive immune response triggered by your T-cells and B-cells with the ability to replicate billions of antibodies within hours of exposure. Outside of the typical hygienic protocol, there are things that you can do. Note that these are prevention tips, they will not prevent you from contracting the virus if you go running around kissing other people. If you have symptoms of virus always work with your local health authorities. Elimination - the key of health The first line of disease prevention is a healthy elimination. Any pathogens encountered by your immune system are either destroyed and "eaten" by cells called phagocytes or end up having antibodies attached to their "active sites" to prevent further movement, kinda like shackles.... either way, the residue has to be eliminated from the body. This happens either via lymphatics, kidneys and your bowels through bile. So ensure you stay well hydrated with water and herbal teas, not coffee. At the same time, aim to have 3 regular bowel movements per day. If your bowels are sluggish, you risk the reabsorption of toxins and eliminate pathogens in the intestinal tract. Most people have a degree of intestinal permeability (leaky gut), so this is even more important. Ensure daily intake of 50g of fibre, if possible go above it. Be careful with pastas and glue-like substances that slow down your digestion. Go easy on red meats, dairy, fried and barbecued meats, sausages and eggs. All of them increase the production of polyamines that may putrify in your gut and cause reabsorption and re-opening of "packaged toxins" sent from the liver to be removed. Probiotic foods and probitoic supplements can help with gut motility. Note that if you have ongoing digestive problem (eg. SIBO , IBS, IBD), consult probiotic supplements with your doc as it may make the condition worse. Detoxification - the myth and the reality Despite a lot of nonsense on the internet, the only organ able of detoxification is the liver. The liver undergoes two phases of detoxification that are extremely dependant on each other. They ensure that all used up hormones, and biological molecules as well as toxins and destroyed pathogens are made into less harmful and into water-soluble. Liver detoxification is extremely dependant on nutrient intake, most of all: B-vitamins, magnesium, vitamin C, choline, multiple individual amino acids, glutathione (internal antioxidant) and many plant chemicals. So a sensible intake of mixed variety of vegetables and fruits as well as healthy sources of amino acids is viable. All of these can easily be received even on 100% plant-based diet even raw diet. Alcohol is a toxin and carcinogen impacting both phases of liver detox and needs to be cut out completely. Same for ciagarettes and any unnecessary medications. gentlemen, do not push oral contraceptives on your wives and girlfriends !!!! If you do you are a dick... Foods specifically shown to enhance liver detox: cruciferous vegetables, allium vegetables, rosveratrol (red grapes and berries), ginger, rosemary, dandelion, artichoke, gentian, ECGC (green tea not extract), lemons, apples, mung bean sprouts, beetroot, aspargus, curcumin, all fruits and berries. NOTE: avoid any shady detox supplements, pills and fake products, these may give you toxic doses of isolated compounds. Food and herbal spices always always always come first. Any high concentrates should be properly researched first and tinctures supplied by a qualified herbalist or a naturopath. Sleep This goes without saying. Lack of sleep will devastate your immune response by upregulating cortisol which suppressed adaptive immunity. Get those 8 hours if you can. Exercise Lot of advice these days is about avoiding gyms but daily exercise should still be part of the regime. It helps to move the lymphatic system and eliminate any pathogens that have been quarantined in lymph nodes. Excercise strenghtens your immune system, improves elimination and detoxification. Stress Stress is another devastator of the immune system. Daily meditation and other coping techniques are good strategy to cope. Adaptogenic herbs, magnesium, L-theanine can all be helpful as well. Zinc - Supports production & replication of your immune cells and antibodies. ZInc is a cofactor in many immune, bodily and enzymatic processes. Most seafood and meats are rich in zinc as well as legumes (cook them well) , sprouts and nuts/seeds. If you struggle, it is fine to take a supplement of Zinc Citrate (up to 30mg per day). Vitamin D (25-hydroxy vitamin D) Essential cofactor for immune system finction. It improves your immune system function, antibody production, lymphocyte production and prevention of autoimmune disease. Aime to get daily exposure to sun, if you are in a country where there is non, consider daily intake of 2000 international units of vitamin D3 supplement or a sublingual spray. Take it with meals in the morning. Good luck and stay safe!

UPDATE ON THE TOPIC There has been some recent research showing that Vitamin D increases the amount of protein called Angiotensin-Converting-Enzyme2 (ACE2) This protein plays a role in the body's self-regulation of blood pressure. However few members of the coronavirus family including SARS can actually hijack this enzyme through "backdoor" and use it to enter the cell. Yes vitamin D plays still a role in immune system but at this particular case it is a double-edged sword. Watch Chris Masterjohn PHD's latest video for more info on this. So I guess I am stopping Vitamin D supplementation in the highest peak of the crisis. Get sunshine instead where possible. Stay safe folks !
