But this is a highly unstable element, and so it is not how it appears in food. This is how phosphorus appears in food:
P hosphorus in food

(Vitamin B6 pyridoxine.10 For food sources see Chapter 7.6.B6)
Revici classified Phosphorus as theoretically anabolic.

“Phosphorus” comes from the Greek word phosphorous, which means “bringer of light.” In drug or supplement form, it’s called phosphate12. Phosphorus plays an important role in keeping you healthy, so it’s an important part of your diet13.
This mineral is hard at work in every one of the trillions of cells in your body right now14.
Function and Health Benefits Phosphorus
Phosphorus is an essential mineral that your body uses to build healthy bones, create energy and make new cells15.You have more of this mineral in your body than any other except calcium. Sulfur, calcium 16 and phosphorus are the three most abundant minerals in the human body17.
One of its main tasks is to serve as a building block for healthy teeth and bones18.You may think that’s calcium’s job. But calcium needs phosphorus to make your teeth and bones strong19 and create healthy bones20 create energy and make new cells21.Phosphorus is a building block for healthy teeth and bones22.
Phosphorus also helps your nerves and muscles do their jobs23.
Phosphorus also helps you turn fat, carbs, and protein 24into energy.
Phosphorus aids in weight loss
Phosphorus and Calcium work together maintain a healthy blood PH.25. More Phosphorus means more alkaline blood, More Calcium means more acidic blood. The ideal calcium to phosphorus ratio is 1-2:126Phosphorus is a a buffer that keeps the pH level in your blood balanced27.
According to the American Association for Clinical Chemistry, normal blood pH levels are between 7.35 and 7.45.
A blood pH above 7.45 indicate alkalosis, or too much phosphorus
A blood pH below 7.35 indicates acidosis.28, or too much calcium.
Acidosis reduces, and alkalosis increases the binding of calcium to albumin, causing increased or decreased levels of ionized calcium, respectively29.
So acidosis reduces the binding of calcium to albumin, causing increased levels of ionized calcium,
and alkalosis increases the binding of calcium to albumin, causing decreased levels of ionized calcium.
High pH levels cause low calcium levels.
Deficiency Symptoms Phosphorus : Metabolic acidosis too low blood pH
Low phosphorus status has been positively associated with increased body weight33.
Low phosphorus may cause kidney stones:
Nerve disorders
Osteomalacia , which is a marked softening of your bones.
Rhabdomyolysis is a serious syndrome due to a direct or indirect muscle injury. It results from the death of muscle fibers and release of their contents into the bloodstream. This can lead to serious complications such as renal (kidney) failure. This means the kidneys cannot remove waste and concentrated urine. In rare cases, Rhabdomyolysis can even cause death. However, prompt treatment often brings a good outcome. Here’s what you need to know about Rhabdomyolysis.
The “classic triad” of Rhabdomyolysis symptoms are:
muscle pain in the shoulders, thighs, or lower back;
muscle weakness or trouble moving arms and legs. Half of people with the condition may have no muscle-related symptoms.
dark red or brown urine or decreased urination. Other common signs of Rhabdomyolysis include:
Peripheral neuropathy, a result of damage to the nerves located outside of the brain and spinal cord (peripheral nerves), often causes weakness, numbness and pain, usually in the hands and feet. It can also affect other areas and body functions including digestion, urination and circulation35
Some of the common symptoms of metabolic acidosis, when there is too little phosphorus and too much calcium, and the blood pH is too low, include the following:
rapid and shallow breathing
confusion
fatigue
headache
sleepiness
lack of appetite
jaundice
increased heart rate
breath that smells fruity, which is a sign of diabetic acidosis (ketoacidosis)
Without prompt treatment, acidosis may lead to the following health complications:
When blood pH levels become too high, and thus the blood too alkaline it is called Alkalosis. Metabolic Alkalosis. can have central nervous system manifestations ranging from confusion to coma, peripheral neuropathic symptoms of tremor, tingling and numbness, muscle weakness and twitching, and arrhythmia’s, particularly when associated with hypokalemia and hypocalcemia.
Deficiency Causes Phosphorus
Calcium overload causes Phosphorus deficiency
Calcium overload can be caused by oral vitamin D,
Phosphorus deficiency, also called hypophosphatemia, can happen
The recommended daily intake (RDI) for adults is 700 mg, but growing teens and pregnant women need more. The daily value (DV) was estimated to be 1,000 mg, but was recently updated to 1,250 mg to cover the needs of these groups52.
How much phosphorus you need depends on your age. (Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding need the same amount as other adults.)
If you have a health issue that keeps you from getting enough phosphorus from food, your doctor can prescribe a supplement. Phosphate also treats some types of urinary tract infections and prevents calcium stones in the urinary tract54.
The stability of phosphorus depends on the form it is in. As riboflavin Vitamin B2, (dairy products, nuts, seeds, mushrooms) Riboflavin it is heat stable but light sensitive. Thermal decomposition of Vitamin B2 in air atmosphere occurs at 296 °C. 72If Vitamin B2 is exposed to too much light it can be deactivated from its usable form. UV light can destroy a percentage73 of Vitamin B2, Riboflavin74So heat it any way you like, but store it in the dark. And if you heat it, use the fluids you used to cook or fry it in for soups or sauce, since the vitamins and minerals leech into them. As Vitamin B6 (nuts, seeds, vegetables) Thermal decomposition in air atmosphere occurs at 212 °C. 75 As with all B Vitamins, use the fluids you boiled, cooked or fried them in, because the Vitamins leech in them.

Zinc is a trace element which is essential to to cell function and involved in over 100 enzymes. Zinc has long been tauted for it’s potential to support the immune system, but also plays an important role in wound healing, fertility, preventing and treating pneumonia and preserving community between neurons (memory).
According to Revici’s theory4, Zinc is strongly anabolic, which means it builds up the body.
Omega-3-ALA and Omega-6-LAalso work as Zinc ionophores, with the extra advantage of repairing cell membranes and carrying Zinc to damaged cell membranes, as Dr. Revici explained.
Zinc is an essential mineral forming a component of more than 300 enzymes in the body with functions including wound healing, immune system function, building proteins and DNA, fertility in adults and growth in children. Zinc is also needed for maintaining the senses of smell and taste.
The essentiality of zinc in humans was established in 1963.
During the past 50 years tremendous advances in both clinical and basic sciences of zinc metabolism in humans have been observed.
In 1963, we knew of only 3 enzymes that required zinc for their activities, but now we know of >300 enzymes and >1000 transcription factors that are known to require zinc for their activities.5
Zinc is a second messenger of immune cells, and intracellular free zinc in these cells participate in signaling events.
Zinc not only modulates cell-mediated immunity but is also an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent.
Health benefits
Zinc has been very successfully used as a therapeutic modality for the management of acute diarrhea in children, Wilson’s disease, the common cold and for the prevention of blindness in patients with age-related dry type of macular degeneration and is very effective in decreasing the incidence of infection in the elderly.
A deficiency in zinc can lead to loss of the senses of smell and taste, stunted growth, diarrhea, impotence, hair loss, eye and skin lesions, impaired appetite, and depressed immunity.
The major factor contributing to zinc deficiency is high phytate-containing cereal protein intake
in the developing world, and nearly 2 billion subjects may be zinc deficient.
Conditioned deficiency of zinc has been observed in patients with malabsorption syndrome, liver disease, chronic renal disease, sickle cell disease, and other chronic illnesses.
The figure below shows the effect of QCT (Which is quercitin) , EGCG, and CQ (clioquinol) on the uptake of zinc cations by liposomes. Zinc-dependent fluorescence emission of FluoZin-3 encapsulated within liposomes treated with zinc cation s, polyphenols, and CQ.
Quinine is known as a serious poison, but small quantities are recognized as therapeutic.
The advice is to take 300 mg a day. Tonic water contains no more than 83 mg of quinine per liter—a much lower concentration than the 500 to 1,000 mg in the therapeutic dose of quinine tablets. 29
And the amount in walnuts and grapefruit is still lower.
Quercetin (C15H10O7) is a flavonoid found in fruits and vegetables, which has unique biological properties that may improve mental/physical performance and reduce infection risk . These properties form the basis for potential benefits to overall health and disease resistance, including anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antioxidant, and psychostimulant activities, as well as the ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation, platelet aggregation and capillary permeability, and to stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis
Quercetins are naturally occurring flavonoids. These flavonoids are found in a variety of foods, including vegetables such as onions, garlic, brassica, mustard greens, and ginger; fruit such as apples, berries, and grapes; and many seeds, nuts, flowers bark and tea leaves35
Quercetin as a Zinc Ionophore
Quercetin is a zinc ionophore (13). A 2015 study found that that Quercetin shows inhibitory activity in the early stages of a wide range of influenza viruses, including H1N1 and H5N1 (14). Although influenza is not in the same family of viruses as the coronavirus, it’s plausible that a similar mechanism could apply here. There is actually some evidence that Quercetin has already proven effective at treating Ebola and Zika viruses36.
Hypothesis of zinc ascorbate as best zinc ionophore for raising antiviral resistance against Covid‐1937.
Quercetin-type flavonols (primarily as quercetin glycosides), the most abundant of the flavonoid molecules, are widely distributed in plants.
They are found in a variety of foods including apples, berries, Brassica vegetables, capers, grapes, onions, shallots, tea, and tomatoes, as well as many seeds, nuts, flowers, barks, and leaves.
Quercetin is also found in medicinal botanicals, including Ginkgo biloba, Hypericum perforatum, and Sambucus canadensis .
In red onions, higher concentrations of quercetin occur in the outermost rings and in the part closest to the root, the latter being the part of the plant with the highest concentration .
One study found that organically grown tomatoes had 79% more quercetin than chemically grown fruit .
Quercetin is present in various kinds of honey from different plant sources .
Food-based sources of quercetin include vegetables, fruits, berries, nuts, beverages and other products of plant origin .
In the determined food, the highest concentration is 234 mg/100 g of edible portion in capers (raw), the lowest concentration is 2 mg/100 g of edible portion in black or green tea (Camellia sinensis) 38.
Dietary intake of quercetin was different in several countries. The estimated flavonoid intake ranges from 50 to 800 mg/day (quercetin accounts for 75%), mostly depending on the consumption of fruits and vegetables and the intake of tea39 . Foods that commonly contain quercetin include onions, apples, grapes, berries, broccoli, citrus fruits, cherries, tea, and capers
The concentrations of flavonols (kaempeferol, quercetin, myricetin) were determined in 22 plant materials (9 vegetables, 5 fruits, and 8 medicinal plant organs). The materials were extracted with acidified methanol (methanol/HCl, 100:1, v/v) and analyzed by reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) with UV detection. The total flavonols contents varied significantly (P<0.05) among vegetables, fruits and medicinal plant organs ranged from 0 to 1720.5, 459.9 to 3575.4, and 2.42 to 6125.6mgkg(-1) of dry matter, respectively. Among vegetables, spinach and cauliflower exhibited the highest amounts of flavonols (1720.5 and 1603.9mgkg(-1), respectively), however, no flavonols were detected in garlic. Within fruits, highest level of flavonols was observed in strawberry (3575.4mgkg(-1)), whereas, the lowest in apple fruit (459.9mgkg(-1)). Of the medicinal plant organs, moringa and aloe vera leaves contained the highest contents of flavonols (6125.6 and 1636.04mgkg(-1)), respectively, whereas, lowest was present in barks (2.42-274.07mgkg(-1)). Overall, leafy green vegetables, soft fruits and medicinal plant leaves exhibited higher levels of flavonols.41
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), also known as epigallocatechin-3-gallate, is the ester of epigallocatechin and gallic acid, and is a type of catechin.
EGCG – the most abundant catechin in tea 56especially in in green tea and touted as the most effective chemopreventive polyphenol . A recent study found EGCG amplified the effectiveness of Quercetin as a zinc ionophore. This suggests that ECGC and Quercetin provide a synergistic effect with enhanced bioavailability.

Its name is derived from the word “hesperidium”, for fruit produced by citrus trees. Hesperidin is believed to play a role in plant defense.
In addition to its well-known benefits for cardiovascular function, type II diabetes, and anti-inflammation, recent studies have demonstrated multiple benefits of hesperidin
The antiallergic activity of hesperidin and its metabolite hesperetin were investigated. Hesperidin did not inhibit the histamine release from RBL-2H3 cells induced by IgE. However, its metabolite hesperetin potently inhibited the histamine release from RBL-2H3 cells in duced by IgE and the PCA reaction.12

Histamine is an organic nitrogenous compound involved in local immune responses, as well as regulating physiological functions in the gut and acting as a neurotransmitter for the brain, spinal cord, and uterus1.
Histamine makes blood vessels more permeable (vascular permeability), causing fluid to escape from capillaries into tissues, which leads to the classic symptoms of an allergic reaction — a runny nose and watery eyes. Histamine also promotes angiogenesis.
Antihistamines suppress the histamine-induced wheal response (swelling) and flare response (vasodilation) by blocking the binding of histamine to its receptors or reducing histamine receptor activity on nerves, vascular smooth muscle, glandular cells, endothelium, and mast cells. Antihistamines can also help correct Eustachian Tube dysfunction, thereby helping correct problems such as muffled hearing, fullness in the ear and even tinnitus.
Itching, sneezing, and inflammatory responses are suppressed by antihistamines that act on H1-receptors.2
Many antihistamines can also elicit psychomotor activation and reward, both of which are associated with increased dopamine concentrations in the nucleus accumbens (NAc).3
Antihistamines were advised against to treat asthma before 1987, but since then they were seen as valid asthma inhibitors 4. In1998 they were still an accepted anti asthma treatment, and they still are to this day. 5
Nettle leaf is a natural antihistamine that naturally blocks histamine production.6Other antihistamine containing foods are
Apples, (especially their peels) are rich in quercetin, a flavonoid that has a natural anti-inflammatory and antihistamine effect.
Quercetin can help to prevent immune cells from releasing histamines, which cause an allergic response. These allergic responses are triggered by pollen and other allergies. In test tubes, quercetin prevents immune cells from releasing histamines. 14

And Resveratrol is known as an anti-histamine as well, which doesn’t mean that there aren’t any allergens in resveratrol food sources. Because Resveratrol is in peanuts as well, and many people all allergic for peanuts.
Resveratrol Sources i20 grapes (Vitis vinifera), and peanut (Arachis hypogaea).21, cocoa, elderberries and berries of the Vaccinium species, including blueberries, bilberries, and cranberries(Vaccinium macrocarpon). 22
Bromelain, which is in Pineapple, is also an antihistamine.
Some sources say pineapple is one of the foods that help with allergies. It’s full of healthy vitamin C, but the fruit’s true allergy powerhouse is an enzyme called bromelain. And this enzyme fights inflammation to help reduce the swelling and irritation brought on by pollen and other seasonal allergens.23
However, pineapple also has a high level of histamine, so eventhough the bromelain it contains can be helpful in breaking down inflammation associated with histamine, so others say it should be avoided in patients with histamine issues.24
Strawberries– are known as a histamine liberator because they cause mast cells in the gastrointestinal tract to release histamine. This can exacerbate allergies. Strawberries are usually avoided in patients with histamine issues.25
High Histamine Foods are: Fruit: Citrus fruits, strawberries, bananas, pineapple, pears. Vegetables: Eggplant, avocado, tomatoes, olives and beans. 27
Linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid significantly increase histamine release.Linoleic acid (C18:2: ω-6)-induced intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization and histamine release were more prominent than α-linolenic acid (C18:3: ω-3). These data support the view that the intake of more α-linolenic acid than linoleic acid is useful in preventing inflammation.
Although chocolate has hesperidin and is quite low in histamine it contains two other biogenic amines, namely tyramine and phenylethylamine, both present in cocoa. Biogenic amines are histamine triggers.29
Aloe Vera has hesperidin, but it prolonged effects of histamin in tests.30
So foods that have antihistamins might also have histamines.

During the first meal of the day, eat Omega-3-ALA and Omega-6-LA from healthy sources in the right balance for the organ you want to heal. Then for the rest of the day you can eat as much Omega-6-LA as you want. Here you see which organs have whoch balance, and how you can achieve the right balance with healthy sources. The RDA of Omega-3-ALA is set at between 1-5 grams daily. The tables below show how to achieve the right balance using 2 grams of Omega-3-ALA.
7.3.Antioxidants that fight SARS-CoV -2, like eucalyptus essential oil and mentha arvensis
Cherimoya, Soursop.
Eucalyptus globulus5If you have symptoms like a soar throat or dry cough, go for Eucalyptus globulus6. AndGreen tea is stronger than Hydroxychloroquine or Remdesiver, and Olive leaf tea 7 causes more red blood cells to be formed than green tea. And the e4dc8 is still crucial.
Rub some pure Eucalyptus globulus9 on your throat. If it is already gone down to your lungs, put some Eucalyptus globulus in a pan with filtered water, make it steaming hot in the stove, hang above it with a towel over your head and inhale the steam. The symptoms will disappear in minutes.
If you are required to wear a mask, make that less annoying by spraying some mentha arvensis on it. Just mix two or three drops of mentha arvensis essential oil in a 10 ml spray bottle and fill with filtered water. Have that with you and spray that on your mask whenever you need to wear it. It will increase the oxygen uptake in your blood with 30 percent and kill harmful molds like aspergillus.10
Ramisse Herbs11, a replacement for Maria Treben’s Swedish Herbs, amde from the teas used in the herb rotation schedule, see point 7.4:
If in spite of all these precautions you still get symptoms, make yourself some olive leaf tea. The virus will get killed by the warmth when it is still in your throat.
You can also make a blend: eucalyptus, olive leaf, chamomile, artemisia annua 13 and green tea. Steaming with eucalyptus essential oil. A lemon squeezed in hot water, or in the tea.
Green tea can be found in any health food store. Just put a table spoon full of leaves in a tea pot and drink as hot as possible.
Another nice blend is with jasmine leaf, plantago, birch leaf, hazel leaf, nettle and olive leaf, and drink that once a week on Tuesdays as part of the herb rotation schedule14.
The herb rotation schedule means you assign atheme to each day so you get all the healing herbs in your schedule without overusing them.
The order follows the days of the week and the grown of a plant: Sunday Seed, Monday, Root, Tuesday Leaf, Wednesday Herb, Thursday Fower, Friday Wood, Saturday Fruit.
All the teas, save the Tuesday blend, can be steeped at 60 degrees Celcius. The Tuesday blend does need to be steeped at 100 degrees Celsius for the nettle to lose its sting.
Sunday Seed:white pepper15, fenugreek16, burdock seed17, cumin and fennel18,
Monday Ginger19, Curcumin20, Black Pepper21, Siberean Ginseng, Ashwaganda, Burdock Root, Angelica Root, and Panax Ginseng, 22 .
Tuesday Leaf: Green tea, Jasmine leaf, birch leaf, ashe leaf, hazel leaf, plantago, nettle, ginkgo biloba, kukicha and olive leaf. Polyphenols are generally heat resistent, and even more potent at temperatures up to 100 degrees Celcius, so they are not lost in the process of brewing tea 23.
Saturday Fruit: black pepper, cardamom32, star anise, all spice, cayenne pepper, citrus leaf, raspberry leaf, bramble leaf, rose hips33, citrus peel and orange peel, which has hespiridin which also has anti-covid properties34.
Make Ramisse herbs by having a glass pot of vinegar, and putting the Wednesday, Friday and Saturday herbs in there after you have used them for tea until it is full. Then filter the herbs out and put the herb drenched vinegar in a glass storage jar with glass lid, not metal, because that can leak into the mixture.
Either put in a vaporizer for cleaning or dispenser for using for your throat when you have a soar throat.
7.5.1.The Vitamin C Cluster: a.Vitamin C, b. Sodium, c.Iodine, d. Potassium , e. Iron, f. Copper, and g.Folate
Vitamin C needs sodium to be properly absorbed. If you get your sodium from Himalayan salt, you need to get Iodine from another source Sodium needs to be taken in balance with potassium. Non-heme Iron needs Vitamin C to be properly absorbed35 and Copper to be metabolized properly. Non-heme iron, or plant based iron, is better asorbed with Vitamin C and vinegar. Folate, or Vitamin B9, also needs Vitamin C to be synthesized properly.
Here you will see which foods have the highest levels of the Vitamin C Cluster.
7.5.1.a. Vitamin C-LAA
There is a difference between real Vitamin C that i sa in fruits and vegetables, and Vitamin C that is often in supplements, Vitamin C in fruit is Vitamin C-LAA. Vitamin C in supplements is Vitamin C-DAA. That does not even prevent scurvy. For more on Vitamin C, see The Vitamin C cluster.

The Tolerable Upper Limit (TUL) for vitamin C is 2,000 mgEven for people with certain intolerances to vitamin C, 6 grams a day is tolerated during illnesses. Do stay well hydrated. You can even take Vitamin C when you have scepsis.
Vitamin C food sources56: kakadu plums, roseh ips, acerola cherries, guava’s, yellow bell peppers, chili peppers, black currants, parsley, mustard spinach, red bell peppers, kale, brussels sprouts, broccoli, green bell peppers, kiwi’s .
Other rich Vitamin C sources are Garlic Mustard and Oxford Lilly and many other plants you can forage.
Although cyanide production could result from breakdown products of glucosinolates, no cyanide was detected in vitro from decomposition of sinigrin, the major glucosinolate of garlic mustard.57
A 100 g serving of clover sprouts provides 14 percent of your daily value for vitamin C and 38 percent of your daily value for vitamin K. Vitamin C is an important antioxidant that protects your cells against oxidative damage and might lower your risk of heart disease and diabetes.58
The advantage of foraged plants is that they often contain minerals that help in vitamin C uptake, like iron.
Cooking methods (i.e. steaming, microwaving, and boiling) have huge impacts on the vitamin C content of vegetables. All cooking treatments, except steaming, caused significant losses of chlorophyll and vitamin C and significant decreases of total soluble proteins and soluble sugars.60
Vitamin C is sensitive to light, heat, and air and can be destroyed during food preparation, cooking, or storage.61
As soon as you slice food and store it , even if you put it i the refrigerator, the Vitamin C content goes down. Same goes for pumped breast milk that is stored in the refrigerator.
Vitamin C is absorbed in the tissues with the help of Sodium.
Sodium Ascorbate is what works. Don’t take calcium ascorbate. that gives calcium build up and is very harmful. It can build up in the soft tissues and the heart and is very problematic.
Also the body uses sodium to move the ascorbate ion your system so it is convenient to have that in the pill. There is no calcium involved in moving ascorbate in the system.
Kidney Disease. Hyperkalemia can happen if your kidneys do not work well. It is the job of the kidneys to balance the amount of potassium taken in with the amount lost in urine. Potassium is taken in through the foods you eat and the liquids you drink. It is filtered by the kidneys and lost through the urine. In the early stages of kidney disease, the kidneys can often make up for high potassium. But as kidney function gets worse, they may not be able to remove enough potassium from your body. Advanced kidney disease is a common cause of hyperkalemia.
A diet high in potassium. Eating too much food that is high in potassium can also cause hyperkalemia, especially in people with advanced kidney disease. Foods such as cantaloupe, honeydew melon, orange juice, and bananas are high in potassium.
Some drugs can keep your kidneys from removing enough potassium. This can cause your potassium levels to rise.
Other (less common) causes include:
Taking extra potassium, such as salt substitutes or supplements.
A disorder called “Addisons disease”, which can occur if your body does not make enough of certain hormones. Hormones are chemicals produced by different glands and organs, including the kidneys, to trigger certain responses in your body.
Burns or other severe injuries. This occurs because your body, in response to severe burns or injuries releases extra potassium in your blood.
Poorly controlled diabetes.
When diabetes is not controlled, it has a direct effect on your kidneys which are responsible for balancing potassium in your body.68
Sodium overload or hypernatremia symptoms are:
Dizziness when you stand up or change positions (you may be dehydrated).
Severe sweating or fever; vomiting and diarrhea with markedly elevated sodium levels, if your hypernatremia is due to a loss of body fluids.69
People who don’t get enough iodine cannot make sufficient amounts of thyroid hormone. This can cause many problems. In pregnant women, severe iodine deficiency can permanently harm the fetus by causing stunted growth, intellectual disability, and delayed sexual development. Less severe iodine deficiency can cause lower-than-average IQ in infants and children and decrease adults’ ability to work and think clearly. Goiter, an enlarged thyroid gland, is often the first visible sign of iodine deficiency.84
Signs of Iodine overload
Getting high levels of iodine can cause some of the same symptoms as iodine deficiency, including goiter (an enlarged thyroid gland). High iodine intakes can also cause thyroid gland inflammation and thyroid cancer. Getting a very large dose of iodine (several grams, for example) can cause burning of the mouth, throat, and stomach; fever; stomach pain; nausea; vomiting; diarrhea; weak pulse; and coma.

Boiling certain foods can lower the amount of potassium in them. For example, potatoes, yams, sweet potatoes, and spinach can be boiled or partially boiled and drained. Then, you can prepare them how you normally would by frying, roasting, or baking them. Boiling food removes some potassium. 91

The interaction between sodium and potassium.
Epidemiological evidence suggests that low potassium intake is associated with the probability of occurrence of hypertension and stroke. The short-term response to increased potassium intake is increased sodium excretion as well as increased potassium excretion; the short-term response to increased sodium intake is increased potassium excretion as well as increased sodium excretion.102
“If sodium increases high blood pressure, potassium decreases it. If sodium retains water, potassium helps you get rid of it,” You should focus on the balance between potassium and salt.103Unfortunately, drinking more water not only dilutes the sodium in your body, but also the potassium. Excess water intake may lead to the loss of potassium in your body when your kidneys excrete the sodium in your urine. So by ingesting too much sodium, you may lower your healthy potassium levels.104
Iron is a mineral that the body needs for growth and development. Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body, and myoglobin, a protein that provides oxygen to muscles.107
Ascorbic acid can enhance nonheme iron absorption, whereas phytate (present in grains and beans) and certain polyphenols in some non-animal foods (such as cereals and legumes) have the opposite effect Unlike other inhibitors of iron absorption, calcium might reduce the bioavailability of both nonheme and heme iron. However, the effects of enhancers and inhibitors of iron absorption are attenuated by a typical mixed western diet, so they have little effect on most people’s iron status.
Ascorbic acid facilitates iron absorption by forming a chelate with ferric iron at acid pH that remains soluble at the alkaline pH of the duodenum.109
Consequences of too little Iron
Iron deficiency can lead to iron-deficiency anemia. When you have this condition, you may have symptoms like weakness, dry skin and nails, and poor concentration. In severe cases, you may have heart palpitations and shortness of breath.110
Among the initial signs of iron poisoning are nausea and abdominal pain. Vomiting blood can also occur. Iron poisoning can also lead to diarrhea and dehydration. Sometimes, too much iron causes stools to turn black and bloody. These symptoms usually develop within six hours. After that, symptoms may appear to improve for a day or so.
After those early symptoms, other serious complications can develop within 48 hours after the iron overdose, such as:
Causes, consequences and symptoms of Iron Overload
Complications of iron overload include liver damage, liver cirrhosis, pancreatic islet cell damage, diabetes, hypothyroidism, and hypogonadism.112
Iron has been suggested as a risk factor for different types of cancers mainly due to its prooxidant activity, which can lead to oxidative DNA damage. Furthermore, subjects with hemochromatosis or iron overload have been shown to have a higher risk of developing liver cancer.113
Symptoms of iron poisoning
Among the initial signs of iron poisoning are nausea and abdominal pain. Vomiting blood can also occur. Iron poisoning can also lead to diarrhea and dehydration. Sometimes, too much iron causes stools to turn black and bloody. These symptoms usually develop within six hours. After that, symptoms may appear to improve for a day or so.
After those early symptoms, other serious complications can develop within 48 hours after the iron overdose, such as:
• dizziness
• low blood pressure and a fast or weak pulse
• headache
• fever
• shortness of breath and fluid in the lungs
• a grayish or bluish color in the skin
• jaundice (yellowing of the skin due to liver damage)
Olive Oil 125aids in the uptake of Iron as well as of Calcium.126
Ashwagandha increases both the red blood corpuscles (RBC) and hemoglobin count.127 The increase in RBC results in an increased capacity of the blood to transport oxygen directly to the exercising muscles; thus, enhancing the aerobic capacity of the athletes.128
A single serving of alfalfa provides 13% of your recommended daily allowance of vitamin K, which is an important vitamin for blood clotting. Vitamin K, along with chlorophyll and iron, also promotes blood production, which can help people with anemia.
Tea and vervain infusions inhibit iron availability. In contrast, mint improves it; vitamin C helps in preventing these inhibiting properties.
This is a case study where it is assumed that high dose Tumeric inhibits iron absorption. Not very convincing, since it is just one person. And he was taking 500 mg of tumeric a day. That is a lot. One fresh teaspoon of ground turmeric has around 200 milligrams of curcumin. So that means he took 2 and a half tea spoons of tumeric a day.
First of all, you should not take any anti viral herb daily. That’s why the e4dc has a herb rotation schedule. So you don’t take a certain herb more than once a week.
A phytase(myo-inositol hexakisphosphate phosphohydrolase) is any type of phosphatase enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of phytic acid (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate) – an indigestible, organic form of phosphorus that is found in many plant tissues, especially in grains and oil seeds – and releases a usable form of inorganic phosphorus.While phytates have been found to occur in animals, plants, fungi and bacteria, phytases have been most commonly detected and characterized from fungi.130
Seaweed has phytase, which breaks down phytic acid, and organic apple cider vinegar helps with the absorbtion of minerals, so including these in your diet keeps phytic acid levels in check.131
In most cases this is to be preferred over the following methods:
Fermentation:Organic acids, formed during fermentation, promote phytic acid breakdown. Lactic acid fermentation is the preferred method, a good example of which is the making of sourdough
Combining these methods can reduce phytic acid content substantially. But, in some cases, it also diminishes nutrient values.
For example, soaking, sprouting and lactic acid fermentation can reduce the phytic acid content of quinoa seeds by 98%
In quinoa the IP6 + IP5 content was reduced by cooking with 4 to 8%, germination with 35 to 39%, soaking with 61 to 76% and by fermentation with 82 to 98%. The highest reduction, about 98%, was obtained after fermentation of the germinated flour.
In other words, when you eat nuts, add some fruits!
7.5.1.f. Copper, Cu2+
Signs of Copper overload
Consuming even relatively small amounts of copper may cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Large amounts, can damage the kidneys, inhibit urine production, and cause anemia due to the rupture of red blood cells (hemolytic anemia) and even death.133
Signs and symptoms. Acute symptoms of copper poisoning by ingestion include vomiting, hematemesis (vomiting of blood), hypotension (low blood pressure), melena (black “tarry” feces), coma, jaundice (yellowish pigmentation of the skin), and gastrointestinal distress. 134
Copper overload (or Copperiedus) is a type of metal poisoning caused by an excess of copper in the body. Copperiedus can occur from eating acidic foods cooked in uncoated copper cookware, an IUD, or from exposure to excess copper in drinking water and other environmental sources, or the genetic condition Wilson’s disease. 135
Instances of copper toxicity are often the result of accidental consumption or installation of contaminated water sources, copper salt-containing topical creams for burn treatments or acidic foods cooked in uncoated copper cookware.136
Folate is a B vitamin found in many foods. The manmade form of folate is called folic acid.
So they are very different. What’s more, folic acid is metabolized differently from folate. Whereas folate is metabolized in the gut, folic acid is metabolized in the liver.
Folate goes through the digestive system and enters the bloodstream through the gut. From there, folate passes into the liver for processing. Any excess passes to the kidneys, and from the kidneys, it leaves the body in urine.145
Unmetabolized folic acid competes with other folate molecules for folate receptors and might crowd out the real folate your body gets.146
The abundance of added folic acid in the food supply has left way more of it coursing through our veins than was originally intended and there are no long-term trials on the health consequences of having lots of unmetabolized folic acid in your body.147
Folate and folic acid have very similar effects. Both help the body create new cells, such as red blood cells.
Folate goes through the digestive system and enters the bloodstream through the gut. From there, folate passes into the liver for processing. Any excess passes to the kidneys, and from the kidneys, it leaves the body in urine.
Taking too much of a fat-soluble vitamin can cause health problems. The body stores them in fat reserves, so they can build up over time.
However, it is very hard to have too much folate, as it dissolves in water. This means that the body can get rid of excesses easily. Although the blood may carry some excess folate, this does not cause any known health risks.148
The following conditions may put people at increased risk of folae deficiency:
Alcoholism. Alcohol interferes with the absorption of folate and speeds the rate that folate breaks down and is excreted from the body. People with alcoholism also tend to eat poor-quality diets low in folate-containing foods.
Pregnancy. The need for folate increases during pregnancy as it plays a role in the development of cells in the fetus.
Intestinal surgeries or digestive disorders that cause malabsorption. Celiac disease and inflammatory bowel disease can decrease the absorption of folate. Surgeries involving the digestive organs or that reduce the normal level of stomach acid may also interfere with absorption.
Genetic variants. People carrying a variant of the gene MTHFR cannot convert folate to its active form to be used by the body.
Signs of deficiency can include: megaloblastic anemia (a condition arising from a lack of folate in the diet or poor absorption that produces less red blood cells, and larger in size than normal); weakness, fatigue; irregular heartbeat; shortness of breath; difficulty concentrating; hair loss; pale skin; mouth sores.
Overload
Folic AcidToxicity is possible, Folate toxicity is not.
It is extremely rare to reach a toxic level when eating folate from food sources.
There is danger iof Folic Acid toxicity.
However, an upper limit for folic acid is set at 1,000 mcg daily because studies have shown that taking higher amounts can mask a vitamin B12 deficiency. This deficiency occurs most often in older adults or those eating a vegan diet in whom a B12 deficiency is more common.
Excess folic acid may exacerbate weight gain, fat accumulation, and inflammation caused by consumption of a high fat diet. 151
Both folate and B12 are involved in making red blood cells, and a shortage of either can result in anemia.
A person taking high-dosage supplements of folic acid may be able to correct the anemia and feel better, but the B12 deficiency still exists.
In this case, if high folic acid intake continues to “hide” the symptoms of B12 deficiency for a long time, a slow but irreversible damage to the brain and nervous system may occur.
If you choose to use a folic acid supplement, stick with the lower range available of 400 mcg a day or less, as you will likely obtain additional folic acid from fortified foods like cereals and breads, as well as natural folate in food.
Overall, the evidence suggests that the amount of folic acid in a typical multivitamin does not cause any harm—and may help prevent some diseases, especially among people who do not get enough folate in their diets, and among individuals who drink alcohol.
If you take folic acid supplements beware of the interaction with vitamin B12. Increased folic acid can cure the anemia associated with vitamin B12 deficiency, but cannot cure the neural damage.
It is important to maintain adequate levels of both folate and vitamin B12.
How much folate do I need?
Recommended Amounts of Folate
The current daily value (% DV) for folate (Vitamin B9) is 400μg.
RDA: The Recommended Dietary Allowance for folate is listed as micrograms (mcg) of dietary folate equivalents (DFE).
Men and women ages 19 years and older should aim for 400 mcg DFE.
Pregnant and lactating women require 600 mcg DFE and 500 mcg DFE, respectively.
People who regularly drink alcohol should aim for at least 600 mcg DFE of folate daily since alcohol can impair its absorption.
Adults need 200 micrograms of folate a day. A microgram is 1,000 times smaller than a milligram (mg). The word microgram is sometimes written with the Greek symbol μ followed by the letter g (μg).
There are no long-term stores in the body, so you need to eat folate-containing foods frequently.
UL: A Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) is the maximum daily dose unlikely to cause adverse side effects in the general population. The UL for adults for folic acid from fortified food or supplements (not including folate from food) is set at 1,000 mcg a day.
If you’re pregnant or could get pregnant.
Though the recommendation for pregnancy is 400-600mcg of folate, this is the minimal amount needed to prevent birth defects. When using folate instead of folic acid ), it is often advisable to take more than the minimum, like 800-1200 mcg of folate.152
Folate Food Sources
Folate is sensitive to destruction by heat, oxidation and UV light.153So while the raw version of any food will have more folate than the heated one, there is still enough left in heated foods.
Folate food sources160Chickpeas, Peanuts, Raw organic Sunflowerseeds, Cranberry Beans, Raw Spinach, Lentils, Roman Beans, Raw Broccoli, Pinto Beans Asparagus, Cooked Spinach, Lettuce, Kidney Beans, Avocado, Cooked Broccoli and Green Peas
7.5.2. Vitamin D Cluster: a.Vitamin D through Sunlight, b. Vitamin B5 for Co Enszyme A for cholesterol , c. Calcium, d. Magnesium, e. Vitamin K2, f.Lysine. g.Phosphorus h.Sulfur i.Zinc
Although it is called Vitamin D, it is a hormone.162 All the cells in the body have Vitamin D receptors. Vitamin D is made out of cholesterol. It has an important role in the immune system. It modulates the immune system and prevents the cytokine storm in the second phase of Covid-19.
Vitamin D plays a vital role in Calcium metabolsim. But not all blockages of Calcium metabolism are caused by lack of Vitamin D.
Vitamin D, Calcium, Magnesium, Vitamin K2, Vitamin B5, Lysine, Cholesterol and Sunlight all play a role in calcium metabolism, and anything that blocks any of these elements will block Vitamin D formation.
And pre vitamin D3 is not just synthesized in the skin after exposure to sunlight, but also in the eyes! That was the conclusion of a study done in 2012.164
Vitamin D from the sun can be compared to bèta carotene, which can be stored indefinitely and vitamin D from diet cane compared to to Vitamin A from diet, which can cause overload.
Vitamin D4 i is present in mushrooms. It has a role as a fungal metabolite. It is a vitamin D and a seco-ergostane.165
Vitamin D overload only occurs with Vitamin D2 or D3 supplementation, not when it is acquired through sunlight.
Cholecalciferol166(vitamin D3) and ergocalciferol167 (vitamin D2) are used as rodenticides168, or rat poison. They affect calcium and phosphate homeostasis169in the body. Vitamins D170are essential in minute quantities (few IUs per kilogram body weight daily, only a fraction of a milligram), and like most fat soluble vitamins, they are toxic in larger doses, causing hypervitaminosis D171. If the poisoning is severe enough (that is, if the dose of the toxin is high enough), it leads to death.
As rodenticidal bait, it causes hypercalcemia,172 raising the calcium level, mainly by increasing calcium absorption from food, mobilising bone-matrix-fixed calcium into ionised173form (mainly monohydrogencarbonate calcium cation, partially bound to plasma proteins, [CaHCO3]+), which circulates dissolved in the blood plasma174. After ingestion of a lethal dose, the free calcium levels are raised sufficiently that blood vessels, 175kidneys, the stomach wall and lungs are mineralised/calcificated (formation of calcificates, crystals of calcium salts/complexes in the tissues, damaging them), leading further to heart problems (myocardial tissue is sensitive to variations of free calcium levels, affecting both myocardial contractibility and excitation propagation between atrias and ventriculars), bleeding (due to capillary damage) and possibly kidney failure. It is considered to be single-dose, cumulative (depending on concentration used; the common 0.075% bait concentration is lethal to most rodents after a single intake of larger portions of the bait) or sub-chronic (death occurring usually within days to one week after ingestion of the bait). Applied concentrations are 0.075% cholecalciferol (30,000IU/g) and 0.1% ergocalciferol (40,000 IU/g) when used alone, which can kill a rodent or a rat.
There is an important feature of calciferol’s toxicology, that they are synergistic with anticoagulant toxicant. In other words, mixtures of anticoagulants and calciferols in same bait are more toxic than a sum of toxicities of the anticoagulant and the calciferol in the bait, so that a massive hypercalcemic effect can be achieved by a substantially lower calciferol content in the bait, and vice versa, a more pronounced anticoagulant/hemorrhagic effects are observed if the calciferol is present. This synergism is mostly used in calciferol low concentration baits, because effective concentrations of calciferols are more expensive than effective concentrations of most anticoagulants.
The Merck Veterinary Manual states the following:
Although this rodenticide [cholecalciferol] was introduced with claims that it was less toxic to nontarget species than to rodents, clinical experience has shown that rodenticides containing cholecalciferol are a significant health threat to dogs and cats. Cholecalciferol produces hypercalcemia, which results in systemic calcification of soft tissue, leading to kidney failure, cardiac abnormalities, hypertension, CNS depression and GI upset. Signs generally develop within 18-36 hours of ingestion and can include depression, anorexia, polyuria and polydipsia. As serum calcium concentrations increase, clinical signs become more severe. … GI smooth muscle excitability decreases and is manifest by anorexia, vomiting and constipation. …Loss of renal concentrating ability is a direct result of hypercalcemia. As hypercalcemia persists, mineralization of the kidneys results in progressive renal insufficiency.”
Additional anticoagulant renders the bait more toxic to pets as well as human. Upon single ingestion, solely calciferol-based baits are considered generally safer to birds than second generation anticoagulants or acute toxicants. Treatment in pets is mostly supportive, with iv fluids and pamidronate disodium. The hormone calcitonin is no longer commonly used.
The best way to get Vitamin D is through sunlight, but even UV light will do. In fact that is an important part of how Vitamin Dwas discovered,
There’s no risk of your body making too much vitamin D from sun exposure,.. This is what all sources agree on176
Vitamin D became so popular that in the 1930s and 1940s a wide variety of foods and beverages as well as personal care products were fortified with vitamin D.They included not only milk and other dairy products but also soda pop, beer, hot dogs, custard and even soap and shaving cream .177
However in the early 1950s an outbreak of hypercalcemia in infants who had elfin faces, heart problems, and mental retardation led to an investigation by the Royal College of Physicians. The experts concluded that this was most likely due to vitamin D intoxication since a similar presentation had been observed in neonatal rodents born of mothers who were fed high doses of vitamin D. Legislation quickly followed banning the fortification of any food or personal use products with vitamin D in Great Britain.This ban quickly spread across Europe and for the most part remains in effect today with the exception of a few foods including margarine and some cereals being fortified with vitamin D.178
Autoimmune diseases: Multiple sclerosis Type 1 diabetes Rheumatoid arthritis
Cancers: Prostate cancer, Breast cancer Colorectal cancer Ovary cancer Non-Hodgkin lymphoma Psychiatric disorders: Seasonal affective disorder Mood disorders Schizophrenia179
Getting Sick or Infected Often
If you often become sick, especially with colds or the flu, low vitamin D levels may be a contributing factor.
Fatigue and Tiredness
Bone and Back Pain
Depression
Impaired Wound Healing
Bone Loss
Hair Loss
Muscle Pain
A lack of vitamin D, known as vitamin D deficiency, can cause bones to become soft and weak, which can lead to bone deformities.180
In children, for example, 181a lack of vitamin D can lead to rickets. In adults, it can lead to osteomalacia, which causes bone pain and tenderness.
Several large observational studies have shown a link between a deficiency and respiratory tract infections like colds, bronchitis and pneumonia.
Vitamin D deficiency associated is with an increased risk of tuberculosis and influenza.
Low Vitamin D levels between the ages 13 and 18 increase the prevalence of M.S. in adulthood.182
The lower the vitamin D levels, the higher the cytokine storm in the second phase of Covid-19.
Numerous studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency also increases the risk of dental decay. This is because vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and phosphate — both of which are crucial for building and keeping strong tooth ename 183
High Fructose corn syrup accelerates the transition from active Vitamin D to an inactive Vitamin D. The schedule below shows how that happens:
Oxidative stress may play a key role in the severity of Covid-19 infection.
A variety of studies have demonstrated how high sugar intake (and fructose in particular – such as high fructose corn syrup) contributes not only to oxidative stress but to the inactivation of a usable form of vitamin D as well.190 Dr. Seheult illustrates of how these pathways work.
Covid-19 patients have 9 times as many blood clots in the lungs as patients with other diseases.
This study published on PubMed study shows patients with elevated bmi’s, kidney disease and cardiovascular disease are most at risk.
High fructose corn syrup is a problem with oxidative stress, not normal fruit sugar as is present in fruits, although you do want to eat fruits whole, with the fiber, to prevent gycemic spikes. Read more about that here.191
Animals fed fructose have more problems than those fed sucrose.192
In the following graph193 the caloric intake of sweeteners per country is compared.
There seems to be a correlation between sweeteners consumption and Covid-19 deaths, but that does not have to mean that it’s causation.
The schedule below shows the difference between sun sourced and diet sourced Vitamin D synthesis.
Here you see how fructose blocks the pathway to activating Vitamin D.194
Alcohol blocks Vitamin D much the same way Fructose does
Alcohol195inhibits fat absorption and thereby impairs absorption of the vitamins A, E, and D that are normally absorbed along with dietary fats . Vitamin A deficiency can be associated with night blindness, and vitaminD deficiency is associated with softening of the bones .196
Vitamins A, C, D, E, K, and the B vitamins, also deficient in some alcoholics, are all involved in wound healing and cell maintenance. In particular, because vitamin K is necessary for blood clotting, deficiencies of that vitamin can cause delayed clotting and result in excess bleeding. Deficiencies of other vitamins involved in brain function can cause severe neurological damage.197
Minerals.198Deficiencies of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc are common in alcoholics. Decreased calcium absorption due to fat malabsorption; magnesium deficiency due to decreased intake, increased urinary excretion, vomiting, and diarrhea; iron deficiency related to gastrointestinal bleeding and zinc malabsorption or losses related to other nutrient deficiencies (17). Mineral deficiencies can cause a variety of medical consequences from calcium-related bone disease to zinc-related night blindness and skin lesions.199For more on Zinc, look here200. For more on Iron look here201.
Furthermore, COPD is increasingly coming to be understood as a systemic inflammatory disease.203
Vitamin D deficiency is associated with lower lung function and more rapid lung function decline in smokers over 20 years in a longitudinal cohort of elderly men. This suggests that vitamin D sufficiency may have a protective effect against the damaging effects of smoking on lung function.204
Vitamin D has immunomodulatory and antiinflammatory effects.205
1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)), the active form of vitamin D, is known to regulate calcium and phosphorus metabolism, thus being a key-player in bone-formation.
However 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) also has a physiological role beyond its well-known role in skeletal homeostasis. 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) is seen as an immunomodulator targeting various immune cells, including monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), as well as T-lymphocytes and B-lymphocytes, hence modulating both innate and adaptive immune responses.206
Besides being targets, immune cells express vitamin D-activating enzymes, allowing local conversion of inactive vitamin D into 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) within the immune system.
Taken together, these data indicate that 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) plays a role in maintenance of immune homeostasis.
Several epidemiological studies have linked inadequate vitamin D levels to a higher susceptibility of immune-mediated disorders, including chronic infections and autoimmune diseases.
1,25(OH)(2)D(3) has complex immune-regulatory effects on immune cells as well as a role in infectious and autoimmune diseases, more in particular in tuberculosis and type 1 diabetes (T1D).
TNF-α, is a key cytokine implicated in lung destruction in COPD
TNF-α is down-regulated by vitamin D
1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) is able to modulate inflammation in monocytes.
Matrix metalloproteinases Enzymes are implicated in COPD,
The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) comprise a family of at least 20 proteolytic enzymes that play an essential role in tissue remodeling. MMP1 (interstitial collagenase),
MMP9 (gelatinase B) and MMP12 (macrophage elastase) are thought to be important in the development of emphysema.
A study was done to investigate the role of MMP polymorphisms in the development of chronic obstructive lung disease.207
The prevalence of these polymorphisms in 590 continuing smokers chosen from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute.208
These data suggest that polymorphisms in the MMP1 and MMP12 genes, but not MMP9, are either causative factors in smoking-related lung injury or are in linkage disequilibrium with causative polymorphisms.209
In asthma, airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) hyperplasia plays an important role in airway remodelling.1,25-(OH)(2)D(3) has direct inhibitory effects on passively sensitized HASMCs in vitro, including inhibition of cell proliferation and expression of MMP-9 and ADAM33, suggesting a possible beneficial role for 1,25-(OH)(2)D(3) in preventing and treating asthmatic airway remodelling.
1,25-(OH)(2)D(3) has direct inhibitory effects on passively sensitized HASMCs in vitro, including inhibition of cell proliferation and expression of MMP-9 and ADAM33, suggesting a possible beneficial role for 1,25-(OH)(2)D(3) in preventing and treating asthmatic airway remodelling.
Matrix metalloproteinases Enzymes may be modulated by vitamin D.
1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and its analogues down-regulate cell invasion-associated proteases in cultured malignant cells.210
Vitamin D also induces production of antioxidants.
The cells exposed to 1,25(OH)2D3 showed increased tolerance (cell survival) to UVB injury. 1,25(OH)2D3-induced MT may act as a radical scavenger in oxygen-mediated UV injury including SBC formation in the skin. These results indicate that 1,25(OH)2D3 may be practically applied to humans for the purpose of photoprotection.
This may be beneficial in exposure to the oxidative stress of cigarette smoking that leads to lung damage.
Sun burn
Sun burn and the measures we take against that with sunblocks is also a reason for Vitamin D blockage. This is caused by a weakening of the skin because of toxic diet and care products.212 A good way to strengthen your skin are the diet and care tips in the e4dc213. An important element of that is the e4dc shower routine.214 Unlike the aggressive substances people usually use to wash themselves, it leaves the skin in tact so that sunblocks and sunscreens are unnecessary and Vitamin D formation in the skin through sunlight is unhindered.
Statins stop the production of cholesterol. First, statins block the enzyme that creates cholesterol. Reduced production lowers the total amount of cholesterol available in your bloodstream.
Statins help reabsorb existing cholesterol. Your body needs cholesterol to perform certain tasks. These tasks include helping you digest food, make hormones, and absorb vitamin D. If statins lower your cholesterol level, your body can’t get the cholesterol it needs from your circulating blood. Instead, your body needs to find other sources of cholesterol. It does this by reabsorbing cholesterol that has built up as plaques containing LDL in your arteries.
There’s not enough evidence to know what the effects might be of taking high daily doses of pantothenic acid supplements.
Pantothenic acid overload has not been observed from food sources. With very large daily doses of 10 grams a day, stomach upset or mild diarrhea has been reported. However, this is rare and a Tolerable Upper Intake Level for pantothenic acid has not been established.
What blocks B5?
Vitamin C, thiamine (B1) and pantothenic acid are all “sensitive” or “highly sensitive” to damage by heat. Probiotic cultures are even more delicate and cannot live above 120 °F, or 48,8 degrees Celcius as with virtually all bacteria and yeast
Hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis): Taking vitamin D could make this condition worse, especially in people with kidney disease.
A type of fungal infection called histoplasmosis: Vitamin D may increase calcium levels in people with histoplasmosis. This could lead to kidney stones and other problems.
High levels of calcium in the blood: Taking vitamin D could make this condition worse.
Over-active parathyroid gland (hyperparathyroidism): Vitamin D may increase calcium levels in people with hyperparathyroidism.
Lymphoma: Vitamin D may increase calcium levels in people with lymphoma. This could lead to kidney stones and other problems.
Kidney disease: Vitamin D may increase calcium levels and increase the risk of “hardening of the arteries” in people with serious kidney disease. This must be balanced with the need to prevent renal osteodystrophy, a bone disease that occurs when the kidneys fail to maintain the proper levels of calcium and phosphorus in the blood. Calcium levels should be monitored carefully in people with kidney disease.
A disease that causes swelling (inflammation) in body organs, usually the lungs or lymph nodes (sarcoidosis): Vitamin D may increase calcium levels in people with sarcoidosis. This could lead to kidney stones and other problems.
Tuberculosis: Vitamin D might increase calcium levels in people with tuberculosis. This might result in complications such as kidney stones.
Conclusions and relevance:Vitamin D supplementation is ineffective as an agent for lowering Blood Pressure and thus should not be used as an antihypertensive agent.
Signs of Calcium Overload
Conversely, excess calcium (particularly from supplements) can lead to kidney stones, calcification of soft tissue, and increased risk of vascular diseases like stroke and heart attack.226
Kidney Stones227– At least one clinical trial has shown that 7 years of vitamin D and calcium supplementation is associated with increased risk of kidney stone risk.
Calcium overdose can also lead to Zinc deficiency,, the symptoms of which are, among others, lower immune response and loss of taste and smell. 228Sound familiar?229
Oral Vitamin D supplementation can lead to calcium overlaod,which in its turn lead calcification of arteries and to Zinc deficiency, the symptoms of which resemble Covid-19 and long covid: shortness of breath and loss of taste and smell.
Vegan Calcium sources are superior to non vegan ones, since animal protein causes acidic metabolic waste, which causes Calcium to be excreted through urine. The effects of phyic acid in plants can be countered with apple cider vinegar.
Magnesium is the fourth most abundant cation in the body and plays an important physiological role in many of its functions. Magnesium balance is maintained by renal regulation of magnesium reabsorption. The exact mechanism of the renal regulation is not fully understood. The term “renal” refers to the kidney. For example, renal failure means kidney failure.235 Magnesium deficiency is a common problem in hospital patients, with a prevalence of about 10%. There are no readily available and easy methods to assess magnesium status. Serum magnesium and the magnesium tolerance test are the most widely used. Measurement of ionised magnesium may become more widely available with the availability of ion selective electrodes.236
Magnesium deficiency and hypomagnesaemia can result from a variety of causes including gastrointestinal and renal losses. Magnesium deficiency can cause a wide variety of features including hypocalcaemia, hypokalaemia and cardiac and neurological manifestations. Chronic low magnesium state has been associated with a number of chronic diseases including diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, and osteoporosis. The use of magnesium as a therapeutic agent in asthma, myocardial infarction, and pre-eclampsia is also discussed.237
Hypermagnesaemia is less frequent than hypomagnesaemia and results from failure of excretion or increased intake. Hypermagnesaemia can lead to hypotension and other cardiovascular effects as well as neuromuscular manifestations.
Function
Magnesium is an essential mineral required by the body for muscle and nerve function, maintaining heart rhythm, building strong bones238 and energy production. The secretion and action of insulin also require magnesium.
About 60% of the magnesium in your body is found in bone, while the rest is in muscles, soft tissues and fluids, including blood
In fact, every cell in your body contains it and needs it to function.
One of magnesium’s main roles is acting as a cofactor or helper molecule in the biochemical reactions continuously performed by enzymes.
Magnesium is involved in more than 600 reactions in your body, including
Energy creation:239Helps convert food into energy.
Protein formation:240Helps create new proteins from amino acids.
Gene maintenance:241Helps create and repair DNA and RNA.
Muscle movements:242Is part of the contraction and relaxation of muscles.
Nervous system regulation:243Helps regulate neurotransmitters, which send messages throughout your brain and nervous system.244
Magnesium plays a critical role in brain function 245and mood: Magnesium supplementation has been linked to improvement in depression symptoms,Stress. Physical and emotional stress drain the body of magnesium. In fact, studies show inverse relationships between serum cortisol and magnesium—the higher the magnesium, the lower the cortisol. 246
It Has Benefits Against Type 2 Diabetes People who get the most magnesium have a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. Moreover, Magnesium has shown to lower blood sugar in some people.
Magnesium Reduces Insulin Resistance
Magnesium Has Anti-Inflammatory Benefits
Magnesium Can Help Prevent Migraines
Magnesium Improves PMS Symptoms
Deficiency symptoms
A deficiency in magnesium can lead to numbness, muscle cramps, seizures, abnormal heart rhythms, and coronary spasms.
Depression: A variety of neuromuscular and psychiatric symptoms, including different types of depression, was observed in magnesium deficiency.247
Low magnesium intake is linked to chronic inflammation, which is one of the drivers of aging, obesity and chronic disease.248
Magnesium Overload symptoms
Conversely, consuming too much magnesium typically causes diarrhea and nausea as the body attempts to excrete the excess.249

Aloe Vera Gel contains calcium, chromium, copper, selenium, magnesium, manganese, potassium, sodium and zinc. They are essential for the proper functioning of various enzyme systems in different metabolic pathways and few are antioxidants. 276
Increased intakes of protein and fructose from fruit improve apparent magnesium absorption (magnesium intake minus fecal excretion) in humans, whereas a lowering effect occurs with consumption of cellulose and phytic acid278
Olive oil also enhances magnesium absorption.
Magnesium absorption due to active and passive transport together, was greater in resected than in transected rats in all three intestinal segments, although the difference was significant only in the jejunum (the segment closest to the anastomosis), because of the greater increase in mucosal mass in resected animals. When the three intestinal segments were compared, magnesium absorption in favour of and against the concentration gradient in the proximal colon was significantly greater than in the duodenum or the jejunum, in resected and transected animals fed diet A or diet B. These findings show that the colon is the segment that most efficiently absorbs magnesium in rats with intestinal resection, especially when diet B is given.279
A vitamin K2 deficiency leads to calcium deposits in our artery walls, which can affect the functions of kidneys and the brain.
Without vitamin K2, the calcium metabolism does not work and the mineral content decreases. Bones can become porous on this.
Without vitamin K2, no coagulation factors can be produced to stop bleeding.285
Consequences of too much
These only occur with excessive artificial supplementation or injection and can include:
Decreased appetite

Some side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:
Vitamin K2 (menaquinone) concentrations were measured in a wide range of cheeses and the effects of fat content, ripening and origin of the cheeses were investigated. Moreover, the menaquinone content of cheese was compared with that of other foods known to contain vitamin K2. It was found that cheese and curd are the most important sources of long-chain menaquinones in the Western diet and, in general, hard cheeses are richer in menaquinones than soft cheeses. However, the actual menaquinone content varies substantially and is dependent on the type of cheese, the time of ripening, the fat content and the geographic area where the cheeses are produced 290.
Researchers estimate that a 70 kilogram (kg) person needs around 800–3,000 mg of lysine per day. A person’s body weight affects how much they need as follow
Dosage recommendations for lysine vary according to what you’re using it for. The typical dietary guideline for lysine is 1 gram (g) or 1000 milligrams (mg) per day.295
Good sources of lysine include foods that are rich in protein, such as:296
Himalayan Salt has 12.4 grams of Sulfur per kg371, which is 1.24 grams of Sulfur per100 grams, which is 1240 mg. Tha t is 1240 milligrams of Sulfur per 100 grams.
Sea salt has 9.7 milligrams of Sulfur per quarter-teaspoon of sea salt. Sulfur is the third most common mineral in sea salt372. Even though it is not an essential mineral, sulfur plays an important role in your immune system and the detoxification of your body. A quarter-teaspoon of sea salt weighs 1,15 grams 373 If there is 9.7 mg of Sulfur in 1,15 grams of sea salt, then 100 grans of sea salt has 843.48 mg of Sulfur. That is 397 mg less than Himalayan salt.
Methionine, cysteine, homocysteine, and taurine are the 4 common sulfur-containing amino acids376.
. Organosulfur
Allium vegetables are rich in organosulfur compounds, which may also help inhibit the growth of cancer cells in the esophagus, breasts, and lungs, according to some animal studies377. The major organosulfur compounds present in Allium sativum. Regularly eating garlic and other foods high in sulfur is linked to reduced oxidative stress and inflammation as well as higher antioxidant levels378,
The primary sulfur-containing compounds in cruciferous vegetables, known as glucosinolates, may contribute to lower incidences of cardiovascular disease.
One study demonstrated a positive correlation between the consumption of cruciferous vegetables and lower incidences of cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular disease-related mortality. This protective effect is believed to be due in part to their glucosinolate content381.
Broccoli and cauliflower are rich in glucosinolates.
Steaming broccoli for one to three minutes helps maximize the bioavailability of sulfur-containing compounds382.
Broccoli and Cauliflour are rich in glucosinolates383
Emerging research has demonstrated that sulforaphane-rich foods may have protective effects against amyloid beta-induced oxidative damage that can contribute to the development of neurodegenerative diseases. Sulforaphane may also promote the clearance of amyloid-beta plaque buildup in the brain, potentially reducing the risk of Alzheimer’s disease 386.Sulforaphane is the inactive form glucoraphanin belonging to the glucosinolate family. Found in cruciferous vegetables, this compound is recognized for its antioxidant and anti-cancer effects387.
Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that the body produces from another amino acid, called methionine. Homocysteine is usually found in very small amounts in your body394.
Methionine is the initiating amino acid in the synthesis of virtually all eukaryotic proteins397.
Methionine is an antioxidant. It may help protect the body from damage caused by ionizing radiation. It may detoxify harmful substances in the body, such as heavy metals. It may also prevent liver damage from acetaminophen poisoning398.
RDA Methionine
The RDA for methionine (combined with cysteine) for adults has been set at 14 mg/Kg of body weight per day. Therefore a person weighing 70 Kg, independent of age or sex, requires the consumption of around 1.1 g (0.9 mMoles) of methionine/cysteine per day. 399
Animal sources include tuna, salm on, shrimp, beef, and lamb.
Studies are finding links between taurine and what seems like every body part and function. Here are seven reasons to make sure you’re getting enough taurine in your diet.
1. Supports your metabolism
Taurine is necessary for your metabolic and digestive processes. It helps your liver make bile salts, which break down fats in your intestines.
2. Boosts physical performance
A bunch of studies demonstrate how taurine enhances exercise performance. Research suggests that taurine may help improve energy levels, combat exercise-related fatigue, and reduce muscle damage. Score!
3. Protects your musculoskeletal system
This miracle amino infuses a little TLC into your bones and muscles.
Taurine may help guard against periodontal disease and may facilitate postexercise muscle recovery. Evidence points to taurine being effective in treating skeletal muscle disorders like muscular dystrophy, but more research is needed.
4. Does your eyes and ears good
Research in animals has suggested that taurine may help resolve tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and, in some cases, it may even be able to improve hearing.
A study suggested taurine could be a serious candidate for treating eye disorders like glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy because low levels of taurine seem to influence these types of diseases.
5. Safeguards your heart
Findings from studies in humans and animals suggest that taurine may help reduce high blood pressure, improve blood flow, and promote the health of your arteries.
A 2004 study also shows that taurine can protect against a risk factor of heart disease, high body weight.
There’s also evidence that taurine supplementation seems to amplify the exercise efforts of people with heart failure by lowering their cholesterol and inflammation levels.
6. Fights brain aging
Taurine may be your brain’s little fountain of youth. According to some animal studies, taurine supplementation may benefit learning and memory.
Also, one study found that taurine supplements could improve cognitive function in older adults with dementia.
7. Combats a variety of conditions
Taurine supplementation may benefit people with certain conditions, including:
diabetes
inflammatory conditions, like arthritis
neurological conditions, like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases
hepatitis
Taurine may also improve your mental health. Studies found taurine modulated or reduced stress, anxiety, and depression in animals404.
Still, some people have reported side effects after taking taurine, including (20Trusted Source):
vomiting
nausea
liver pain
headache
stomach pain
It’s unclear whether these side effects are related to the amino acid or to a different ingredient that may have been taken alongside taurine.
It’s worth noting that although no evidence shows that taking taurine alongside prescription medications causes side effects, it acts as a cytochrome P450 enzyme inhibitor .
This means it could interfere with medications that rely on this enzyme to metabolize drugs, such as antidepressants, antiepileptic drugs, warfarin, and statins.406
RDA for Taurine
The most common dosage range for taurine is 500–3,000 mg per day ( 2 , 5 ). However, keep in mind that an EFSA report from 2012 suggests that up to 6,000 daily is safe, demonstrating its strong safety profile.407
Taurine blocks
Taurine is destroyed by heat processes. One study found that an average of 52 percent of the taurine in raw meats was lost through baking and an average of 79 percent through boiling. 408
So chick peas 18.7 nmoles/g. horse beans 12.9, and
black beans 9.2 nmoles/g409. become much less after heating the food.
Taurine Food Sources
Foods high in taurine include, seaweed, brewers yeast and nuts 410
The highest concentration of taurine was found in clams and octopus (41.4 μmoles/g and 31.2 μmoles/g) followed by shrimp and fish (12.4 μmoles/g and 9.1 μmoles/g).
Beef, pork and lamb meet contain taurine in concentration ranging 3.5-4.0 μmoles/g.
Taurine concentration in chicken leg was 6.6 μmoles/g and in chicken breast was 1.4 μmoles/g.
No taurine was found was found either in hen eggs (yolk or white) or in dairy products or in honey. Taurine was undetectable in fruits and vegetables.
From the seeds, cereals and grains examined, rice, wheat, barley, sesame seed, coffee and cacao, contains no taurine.No taurine was detected in peanuts.
Almonds between 15-46 nmoles/g.
Cashews between 15-46 nmoles/g.
Hazelnuts between 15-46 nmoles/g.
pine nuts contained taurine in concentrations ranging 15-46 nmoles/g.
Pumpkin seeds contain 13.5 nmoles/g,
Nori 1,300 milligrams of taurine per 100 grams.411 but since taurine is largely diminished by heat, Dulse is probably a better choice.412
Dulse has 300 milligrams of Taurine per serving413.
Pistachios contained very low concentrations of taurine (4.9 nmoles/g).
All analyses were carried out in uncooked samples.
The interest of these results is considered in terms of reported evidences on the deleterious consequences of taurine deficiency in animals and humans414.
Zinc is a trace element which is essential to to cell function and involved in over 100 enzymes. Zinc has long been tauted for it’s potential to support the immune system, but also plays an important role in wound healing, fertility, preventing and treating pneumonia and preserving community between neurons (memory).
Quinine is known as a serious poison, but small quantities are recognized as therapeutic.
The advice is to take 300 mg a day. Tonic water contains no more than 83 mg of quinine per liter—a much lower concentration than the 500 to 1,000 mg in the therapeutic dose of quinine tablets. 442
And the amount in walnuts and grapefruit is still lower.
Quercetin (C15H10O7) is a flavonoid found in fruits and vegetables, which has unique biological properties that may improve mental/physical performance and reduce infection risk . These properties form the basis for potential benefits to overall health and disease resistance, including anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antioxidant, and psychostimulant activities, as well as the ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation, platelet aggregation and capillary permeability, and to stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis
Quercetins are naturally occurring flavonoids. These flavonoids are found in a variety of foods, including vegetables such as onions, garlic, brassica, mustard greens, and ginger; fruit such as apples, berries, and grapes; and many seeds, nuts, flowers bark and tea leaves448
Quercetin as a Zinc Ionophore
Quercetin is a zinc ionophore (13). A 2015 study found that that Quercetin shows inhibitory activity in the early stages of a wide range of influenza viruses, including H1N1 and H5N1 (14). Although influenza is not in the same family of viruses as the coronavirus, it’s plausible that a similar mechanism could apply here. There is actually some evidence that Quercetin has already proven effective at treating Ebola and Zika viruses449.
Hypothesis of zinc ascorbate as best zinc ionophore for raising antiviral resistance against Covid‐19450.
Quercetin-type flavonols (primarily as quercetin glycosides), the most abundant of the flavonoid molecules, are widely distributed in plants.
They are found in a variety of foods including apples, berries, Brassica vegetables, capers, grapes, onions, shallots, tea, and tomatoes, as well as many seeds, nuts, flowers, barks, and leaves.
Quercetin is also found in medicinal botanicals, including Ginkgo biloba, Hypericum perforatum, and Sambucus canadensis .
In red onions, higher concentrations of quercetin occur in the outermost rings and in the part closest to the root, the latter being the part of the plant with the highest concentration .
One study found that organically grown tomatoes had 79% more quercetin than chemically grown fruit .
Quercetin is present in various kinds of honey from different plant sources .
Food-based sources of quercetin include vegetables, fruits, berries, nuts, beverages and other products of plant origin .
In the determined food, the highest concentration is 234 mg/100 g of edible portion in capers (raw), the lowest concentration is 2 mg/100 g of edible portion in black or green tea (Camellia sinensis) 451.
Dietary intake of quercetin was different in several countries. The estimated flavonoid intake ranges from 50 to 800 mg/day (quercetin accounts for 75%), mostly depending on the consumption of fruits and vegetables and the intake of tea452 . Foods that commonly contain quercetin include onions, apples, grapes, berries, broccoli, citrus fruits, cherries, tea, and capers
The concentrations of flavonols (kaempeferol, quercetin, myricetin) were determined in 22 plant materials (9 vegetables, 5 fruits, and 8 medicinal plant organs). The materials were extracted with acidified methanol (methanol/HCl, 100:1, v/v) and analyzed by reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) with UV detection. The total flavonols contents varied significantly (P<0.05) among vegetables, fruits and medicinal plant organs ranged from 0 to 1720.5, 459.9 to 3575.4, and 2.42 to 6125.6mgkg(-1) of dry matter, respectively. Among vegetables, spinach and cauliflower exhibited the highest amounts of flavonols (1720.5 and 1603.9mgkg(-1), respectively), however, no flavonols were detected in garlic. Within fruits, highest level of flavonols was observed in strawberry (3575.4mgkg(-1)), whereas, the lowest in apple fruit (459.9mgkg(-1)). Of the medicinal plant organs, moringa and aloe vera leaves contained the highest contents of flavonols (6125.6 and 1636.04mgkg(-1)), respectively, whereas, lowest was present in barks (2.42-274.07mgkg(-1)). Overall, leafy green vegetables, soft fruits and medicinal plant leaves exhibited higher levels of flavonols.454
Its name is derived from the word “hesperidium”, for fruit produced by citrus trees. Hesperidin is believed to play a role in plant defense.
In addition to its well-known benefits for cardiovascular function, type II diabetes, and anti-inflammation, recent studies have demonstrated multiple benefits of hesperidin
The antiallergic activity of hesperidin and its metabolite hesperetin were investigated. Hesperidin did not inhibit the histamine release from RBL-2H3 cells induced by IgE. However, its metabolite hesperetin potently inhibited the histamine release from RBL-2H3 cells in duced by IgE and the PCA reaction.480
Antiviral activity of plant juices and green tea against SARS-CoV-2 and influenza virus in vitro
Black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa) juice, pomegranate (Punica granatum) juice, and green tea (Camellia sinensis) have virucidal activity against both viruses,487
Leucoefdin, a member of catechol, and a polyphenol is colourless and linked to leucoanthocyanidins found in the Arachis hypogaea (Earth nut in seeds), Musa sp. (Banana, in the fruit), Phyllanthus emblica (Indian gooseberry), Vicia faba (bell-bean, in the seed),488 Nelumbo nucifera (lotusleaf) have been selected for the docking and simulation analysis.489
Leucoefdin an important constituent of various fruits such as banana and raspberry, was explored to target MPro protease of SARS Co-V 2. Ligand was found to bind at active site of MPro with large negative binding energies in molecular docking and simulation study. The docking results showed that Leucoefdin interacted with the MPro by forming hydrogen bonds, at Leu 141, His163, His 164, and Glu 166. Other non-bonded interactions were seen at Met49, Pro52, Tyr54, Phe140, Leu141, Cys145 and Met165. Results of Leucoefdin was in coherence with the recently reported MPro protease-inhibitor complex. It even displayed better binding energies (kcal/mol) in HTVS (-6.28), SP (-7.28), XP (-9.29) and MMGBSA (-44.71) as compared to the reference ligand [HTVS (-4.87), SP (-6.79), XP (-5.75) and MMGBSA (-47.76)]. Leucoefdin-MPro complex on molecular dynamic simulation showed initial fluctuations in RMSD plot for a certain period and attained equilibrium which remained stable during entire simulation for 150 ns. RMSF of protein showed less secondary structure fluctuations and a greater number of H-bond formation with Leucoefdin during 150 ns simulation. Post simulation MMGBSA analysis showed binding energy of -45.98 Kcal/mol. These findings indicated the potential of Leucoefdin as lead compound in R&D for drug discovery and development against SARS CoV- 490

Vero cells are a lineage of cells used in cell cultures.The ‘Vero’ lineage was isolated from kidney epithelial cells extracted from an African green monkey (Chlorocebus sp.; formerly called Cercopithecus aethiops, this group of monkeys has been split into several different species). The lineage was developed on 27 March 1962, by Yasumura and Kawakita at the Chiba University in Chiba, Japan.[2] The original cell line was named “Vero” after
an abbreviation of verda reno, which means “green kidney” in Esperanto, while vero itself means “truth” in Esperanto.496
Bromelain is a group of enzymes found in the fruit and stem of the pineapple plant. P ineapple is native to the Americas but is now grown throughout the world in tropical and subtropical regions. Historically, natives of Central and South America used pineapple for a variety of ailments, such as digestive disorders.
Bromelain is promoted as a dietary supplement for reducing pain and swelling, especially of the nose and sinuses, gums, and other body parts after surgery or injury. It is also promoted for osteoarthritis, cancer, digestive problems, and muscle soreness. Topical bromelain is promoted for burns.497
Bromelain is promoted as a dietary supplement for reducing pain and swelling, especially of the nose and sinuses, gums, and other body parts after surgery or injury. It is also promoted for osteoarthritis, cancer, digestive problems, and muscle soreness. Topical bromelain is promoted for burns.498
Bromelain is a mixture of enzymes found in pineapples (Ananas comosus) that digest protein (proteolytic). Pineapple has been used for centuries in Central and South America to treat indigestion and reduce inflammation.
Streptococcus thermophilus produces the enzyme lactase, which the body needs to digest the sugar in milk and other dairy products. Some studies suggest Streptococcus thermophilus can help prevent lactose intolerance512.
Studies show Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus513, favors the maintenance of an adequate immune response, mainly by slowing the aging of the T cell subpopulations and increasing the number of immature T cells which are potential responders to new antigens514.
Studies show Lactobacillus helveticus515 has many health benefits.
Studies in humans show Lactobacillus helveticus promotes overall gut health
This study 516found that consumption of L. helveticus promoted the production of butyrate, which helps with gut balance and stability517.
Lactobacillus helveticus
Lactobacillus helveticus decreases blood pressure
A study518 of 40 participants with high to normal blood pressure found the daily consumption of L. helveticus reduced blood pressure without any adverse effects.
Lactobacillus helveticus improves anxiety and depression
Preliminary results have shown that L. helveticus and Bifidobacterium longum, taken in combination, can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression519.
Improves sleep
One study520showed consumption of fermented milk with L. helveticus improved sleep in patients aged 60–81 years.
Shortens the length of upper respiratory tract illnesses
This study521w,hich had 39 elite athlete participants, found L. helveticus reduced the length of upper respiratory tract illnesses.
Increases calcium levels
In a study 522done in 2016, a group of participants between the ages of 64 and 74 ate yogurt with L. helveticus probiotic every morning. The study found serum calcium levels increased in those who ate the yogurt.
Has a positive effect on calcium metabolism
A study 523of postmenopausal women between the ages of 50 and 78 found that there was a positive effect on calcium metabolism in women who were given milk with L. helveticus. It also found that it decreased parathyroid hormone (PTH), which is associated with bone loss.
Treats gut infections
A study published in Frontiers in Microbiology 524suggests that L. helveticus might help treat infections in your gut.
Studies in mice
Learning and memory
When mice were given 525Calpis sour milk whey, an L. helveticus-fermented milk product, the mice showed improvement in learning and recognition tests.
Arthritis
In this study526, researchers found L. helveticus decreased the production of splenocytes in mice, which can improve the symptoms associated with arthritis.
Dermatitis
Here527mice were given L. helveticus-fermented milk whey orally. Researchers found it may be effective in preventing the onset of dermatitis.
Fungal growth
This study 528found that L. helveticus suppressed vulvovaginal candidiasis in mice.
Breast tumors
In this study 529mice that were fed L. helveticus-fermented milk showed decreased growth rates of mammary tumors.
Infection
In this study530, researchers found milk fermented by L. helveticus given to mice offered improved protection against salmonella infection.
Studies in vitro
Cancer
There have been a few in vitro studies that looked at the cancer-fighting potential of L. helveticus. This study 531found that L. helveticus inhibited the production of human colon cancer cells. Two different532studies 533found L. helveticus subdued the production of human colon cancer cells. This study 534found L. helveticus inhibited the production of liver cancer cells, specifically HepG-2, BGC-823, and HT-29 cancer cells.
Inflammation
In this study535, researchers looked at the ability of L. helveticus to modify or regulate immune functions in vitro. Their results indicated it could be useful in the development of products used to prevent or treat inflammation-associated diseases.
Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens: L. kefiranofaciens,can be involved in mechanisms affecting intestinal health, immunomodulation, control of blood lipid levels, hypertension, antimicrobial action, and protection against diabetes and tumors536.
Ingestion of milk fermented with L. lactis increases sebum production, thereby reinforcing the skin barrier 539.
Maintains skin hydration and improves skin elasticity 540 .
Lactobacillus and Leuconostoc probiotics promote health benefits against influenza541.
I should have seen it coming, since pharma giants do the same thing with all free, abundant foods that have amazing health benefits:
1.first deny they do anything,
2.then reproduce them in an unnatural way,
3.then notice this unnatural form is dangerous,
4. then vilify them in their natural form as well.
What are they targeting now?
Probiotics.
So let’s follow the whole cycle.
Johanna Budwig had amazing results mixing flaxseed oil with yogurt as a cancer treatment.
Then theories came that probiotics don’t survive the stomach acid, and are useless.
Then they started looking for ways to bypass the stomach acid, using pills with coatings that survive the stomach acid, and more disgustingly, taking a healhy person’s gut bacteria, even feces, and putting it into other people.
And then , surprise surprise, they find out that this does more harm than good, and what do they come up with now?
Back to ingested probiotics from natural, clean sources?
Of course not! Where’s the money in that?
They now say that probiotics are very personalized. That you should make a personal plan for them with your physician.Well, Johanna Budwig gave every one of her patients the same recipe and that worked just fine. Cancer patients, these same pharma giants could not cure, but she could.
So maybe we should just conclude that your body knows exactly what it’s doing when some probiotics do not survive the acidity of the stomach and just let it kill off what it wants to kill off and let through what it feels is safe.
Here are some of the studies I mentioned
Do ingested probiotics survive the stomache?
In conclusion, we confirmed that yogurt bacteria, especially L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, can be retrieved from feces of healthy individuals after a few days of ingestion of commercial yogurt. Moreover, our results indicate that very careful setup of the analytic procedures can dramatically improve the reliability of studies of the survival of yogurt starters542.
Most probiotic bacteria that are added to foods, such as yoghurt, to aid the digestive system are not reaching their intended target in the intestine. Instead, the majority are being destroyed in the stomach before they can do any good. Now, UK scientists have come up with a coating to overcome this problem543. And surprise, surprise (not), what do we read after people artificially bypass the the body’s natural boundaries: New research in the journal Cell Host & Microbiome suggests that under certain conditions, probiotics can be harmful due to their ability to evolve once in the gut544.
What’s harmful is bypassing the body’s natural defense with capsules, vaccines, and unnatural and distasteful practices of exchanging feces between humans!
So don’t be deceived. The natural, clean way of preparing and consuming probiotics, like kefir and kombucha, is nothing but beneficial545.
The skin is the primary defensc against pathogens. Healthy skin has twice the number of T-cells that blood has.
The best way to wash hands and the rest of your skin without damage
While even washing hands with chlorine is better than not washing hands, it is far better to wash them with vinegar and essential oils547, because that way you don’t damage the skin. Chlorine and normal handsanetizers damage the skin and make it far easier for infections and bacteria to infect your skin and you.
The following study548 from Nature Reviews Microbiology shows what the human skin microbiome looks like:
It says: “Skin microorganisms have adapted to utilize the sparse nutrients available on the skin
Many cutaneous microorganisms can produce molecules that inhibit the colonization of other microorganisms or alter their behaviour
The skin microbiota of a healthy adult remains stable over time, despite environmental perturbations
Shotgun metagenomics provides greater resolution than traditional amplicon sequencing, enabling surveys of the skin microbiota at the kingdom, species, strain or gene level
Skin microorganisms have important roles in educating the innate and adaptive arms of the cutaneous immune system
Some skin diseases are associated with an altered microbial state; reversion of this dysbiosis may help prevent and/or treat the disease550
Our skin is home to millions of bacteria, fungi and viruses that compose the skin microbiota.
Similar to those in our gut, skin microorganisms have essential roles in the protection against invading pathogens, the education of our immune system and the breakdown of natural products.
As the largest organ of the human body, skin is colonized by beneficial microorganisms and serves as a physical barrier to prevent the invasion of pathogens 551.
Want clean hands? Vinegar and essential oils are the best disinfectants!
Will vinegar sterilize bottles?
White distilled vinegar is a natural sanitizer, killing bacteria as well as or better than commercial sanitizing solutions.554
Research shows and experience confirms vinegar and essential oil are far better disinfectants than commercial chemical concoctions, that don’t even kill bacteria and viruses after 2 minutes of washing, while harming the skin and weakening the immune system.
Alcohol, bleach and chemical disinfectants are not the solution, since they harm the skin, poison the body and break down the natural immunity the skin has.
As for soap: aside from the toxic ingredients it usually has, normal soap doesn’t even take off bacteria after 4 minutes of washing.
This may be disappointing to diehard germaphobes, but it’s possible for soap to be crawling with bacteria as much as anything else. If you’re storing your soap improperly, such as leaving it in a wet puddle on the edge of your sink, it gives bacteria a fertile place to multiply. When you use it, you basically wind up transferring germs from the soap directly to your hands.
In a thorough study of soapcontamination, one team of U.S. researchers found that even among test subjects with great handwashing technique — more on that in a minute — soap that was already contaminated wound up increasing the number of bacteria on the subjects’ hands after washing.
The scientists tested three types of soap dispenser, in both lab and real-world settings.
Of the three variants, the dispensers that were refillable from a giant bottle of liquid soap were by far the filthiest, leading to a 26-fold increase in handwashers’ bacteria levels.
Modular dispensers that relied on sealed refills stayed clean even after a year of use.
In short, both the nature of the dispenser as well as the cleanliness of the soap itself can have a major impact on how clean your hands are after washing.
How helpful for disinfecting hands is antibacterial soap, anyway?
In a head-to-head test of antibacterial and regular soap, antibacterial soap has an inherent advantage.
One study has shown that a 15-second handwashing session with regular soap successfully reduced E. coli by 1.72 log10, compared to 2.90 log10 for antibacterial soap.
But after doubling the time spent washing, the amount of bacteria removed skyrocketed (for antibacterial soap, the figure was 3.33 log10).
Increasing the volume of soap used seemed to help in the case of antibacterial soap, but there seemed to be a ceiling for regular soap beyond which more time and more soap did virtually nothing.
Why? The level of bacterial reduction caused by nonantimicrobial soap is due to its surfactants, which physically remove bacteria. Once maximum removal is achieved, soap amount and wash time do not improve surfactancy. Antimicrobial soap provides both surfactancy and biocidal modes of action.
In other words, regular soap simply causes bacteria to loosen their grip on your hands, to be rinsed away. That helps explain why using water alone still seems to work just fine, as long as you rub your hands together vigorously. By contrast, antibacterial soap has additives that are designed to kill bacteria outright.
Sample images from a controlled study (Table 2) to determine the number of bacteria from contaminated hands transferred to an agar surface before (A and C) and after (B and D) hand washing with soap containing 4.51 log10 CFU/ml (A and B) or 7.51 log10 CFU/ml (C and D) of S. marcescens.
Recovery and transfer of bacteria from hands after washing with contaminated liquid soap in an elementary school.
An elementary school was identified in which all (14/14) of the bulk-soap-refillable dispensers being used in the restrooms were found to be contaminated with bacteria at levels ranging from 6.0 to 7.0 log10 CFU/ml of soap.
A variety of Gram-negative species from the Citrobacter, Providencia, Pseudomonas, and Serratia genera were identified among the recovered contaminants. 555
Vinegar and essential oils on the other hand kill pathogenic viruses, bacteria and fungi instantly, without harming the skin flora and the natural oils on our skin, another brilliant way our immune system protects us.
So a soap dispenser with vinegar by the sink which you can use as soap, rinse, and then rub some essential oil on and rinse again.
The battle between beneficial microbes and pathogens isn’t only going on in our guts. It’s also going on on our skin and in our surroundings. So when we are cleaning ourselves, we want smart disinfectants, that, like our immune system, kill pathogens without harming beneficial microbes.556
Anti bacterial soap, achieves the opposite of what it claims.557 Instead of ridding the body from bacteria, it aids in creating a super resistant bacteria. The reason is that aside from destroying the natural oils on the skin and the skin flora the soap just kills weak pathogens and aids in creating super strong strains.558
The investigators evaluated IAV (influenza A Virus) inactivation in antiseptic hand rubbing (AHR) with EBDs (Ethanol Based Disinfectants) and antiseptic handwashing (AHW) methods among the mucus that adhered to the hands and fingers of 10 volunteers. While IAV in saline was completely inactivated by AHR using EBD after 30 seconds, IAV in all mucus samples remained active even after AHR for a full 2 minutes. It was not completely inactivated by AHR until 4 minutes of hand rubbing with EBDs, the investigators found.
And if you scrub your hands with a hand sanetizer like Purell for 4 minutes, your skin will be damaged, your immune system weakened with all sorts of hormone disrupters and cancer causing agents.559
Consumer Report says: “As with previous studies, the new research found that using hand sanitizer can remove the flu virus, but it took far longer than hand-washing did. One of the main reasons, the researchers found, is that the mucus from the mouth and nose—which contains the flu virus if you’re infected—makes it difficult for the alcohol in hand sanitizers to penetrate.”
“Use hand sanitizer (with at least 60 percent alcohol) only if a sink isn’t available. But keep in mind that while hand sanitizers have some effect on cold and flu viruses, they don’t eliminate all types of germs from hands. For instance, they don’t killClostridium difficile, a “superbug” that causes severe diarrhea that can occur as a side effect of antibiotics. Hand sanitizers also don’t do a good job of cleaning visibly dirty hands.”560
And studies have shown that antibacterial products don’t kill viruses, which cause some of the most common illnesses, such as colds and the flu.
Vinegar , on the other hand, is very disinfecting, even better than alcohol and it softens your hands instead of drying them out. like soap does, and it kills pathogens without harming the beneficial microbes, or the natural oils on the skin.561

Does vinegar really kill household germs?
“It’s certainly inexpensive, non-toxic and biodegradable and has been used as a common disinfectant for thousands of years.
But especially if you want to clean your kitchen or your bathroom, you might be wondering about household germs. Does vinegar really kill them?
It seems the answer is a qualified “yes”.
How does it work?
Vinegar, be it white or malt or rosemary-infused, is about 5 per cent acetic acid. The acid kills bacteria and viruses, by chemically changing the proteins and fats that make up these nasties and destroying their cell structures.
Does vinegar kill germs?
Yes. Acetic acid (a.k.a. white vinegar) is a great disinfectant. It also acts as a deodorizer and cuts grease.
You can tackle salmonella, E. coli and other “gram-negative” bacteria with vinegar. Gram-negative bacteria can cause pneumonia, meningitis and bloodstream, wound or surgical site infections.
How does it work?
The acid in vinegar crosses the bacteria’s cell membrane ,prompting a release of protons, which causes the cell to die.
White vinegar found on most store shelves is a five per cent concentration of acetic acid. It kills about 80 per cent of germs. Look for stronger concentrations at eco-friendly stores that have refill stations.
Use full strength for tough cleaning jobs or dilute 50:50 with water.
Five ways to clean with vinegar
Fill your dishwasher rinse agent dispenser with white vinegar.
Soak sweat-stained white clothing in about 60 millilitres of white vinegar and enough water to cover the stain. Leave overnight. Wash with eco-friendly laundry soap.
Soak rusty tools in a pail of white vinegar and brush to clean.
To deodorize your toilet, pour 125 millilitres of white vinegar into the bowl. Let sit 15 minutes. Flush. ( We use boiled vinegar, leave it in for a few hours, and then flush with soda to make it pH neutral)
To remove hard water deposits on your tub/glass shower doors, heat 250 millilitres of white vinegar in a pot. Spray onto surface. Let sit 15 minutes and wipe clean562.
We have soap dispensers filled with vinegar at all sinks. Ordinary white vinegar, which you can also put on your salad.
We also have small bottles of lavender563 essential oil564 at all sinks. To still have a nice scent, you can rub a drop of it in your hands after washing your hands with vinegar. Not just for the wonderful fragrance, but also because of the anti viral, anti microbial and anti-fungal properties of many essential oils.565
These are studies on the anti viral activity of essential oil mentioned Dr John Bergman’s talk om the Corona Virus:

Comparative study on the antiviral activity of selected monoterpenes derived from essential oils
Akram Astani Jürgen Reichling,Paul Schnitzler
This study from 2010 says:
Essential oils are complex natural mixtures, their main constituents, e.g. terpenes and phenylpropanoids, being responsible for their biological properties. Essential oils from eucalyptus, tea tree and thyme and their major monoterpene compounds alpha-terpinene, gamma-terpinene, alpha-pinene, p-cymene, terpinen-4-ol, alpha-terpineol, thymol, citral and 1,8-cineole were examined for their antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in vitro. These essential oils were able to reduce viral infectivity by >96%, the monoterpenes inhibited HSV by about >80%. The mode of antiviral action has been determined, only moderate antiviral effects were revealed by essential oils and monoterpenes when these drugs were added to host cells prior to infection or after entry of HSV into cells. However, both essential oils and monoterpenes exhibited high anti-HSV-1 activity by direct inactivation of free virus particles. All tested drugs interacted in a dose-dependent manner with herpesvirus particles thereby inactivating viral infection. Among the analysed compounds, monoterpene hydrocarbons were slightly superior to monoterpene alcohols in their antiviral activity, alpha-pinene and alpha-terpineol revealed the highest selectivity index. However, mixtures of different monoterpenes present in natural tea tree essential oil revealed a ten-fold higher selectivity index and a lower toxicity than its isolated single monoterpenes. 566
A study from March 2021 says:
“Essential oils and oleoresins have been shown through in vitro and in vivo experiments to induce antiviral effects against Coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus. A study reported 221 phytochemical compounds and essential oils to be effective against severe acute respiratory syndrome associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) using a cell-based assay measuring SARS-CoV-induced cytopathogenic effect on Vero E6 cells. The main mechanism of antiviral effects of essential oils has been found to cause capsid disintegration and viral expansion which prevents the virus to infect host cells by adsorption via the capsid. Essential oils also inhibit hemagglutinin (an important membrane protein of various viruses) of certain viruses; this membrane protein allows the virus to enter the host cell. Many essential oils and their components could inhibit the late stages of viral life cycle by targeting the redox signalling pathway. Essential oils of Thymus vulgaris, cymbopogon citratus and Rosmarinus officinalis have been found to destabilize the Tat/TAR-RNA complex of HIV-1 virus, this complex being essential for HIV-1 replication. Being lipophilic in nature, essential oils can penetrate viral membranes easily leading to membrane disintegration”. 567
These are the strongest anti viral essential oils:
Now anti viral does not mean you can use it straight on your skin, like Lavender568 and Eucalyptus globulus. Often you have to dilute them in a carrier oil like sweet almind oil or grapeseed oil, Some of these oils are are irritating for the skin no matter how much you dilute them so be very careful. Research before you use them. I will put an x after the irritating ones that you need to dilute and a double xx if they stay irritating , even if you dilute them. Those might be better to use as spices in tea rather than as essential oils:
Roman chamomile Cinnamon Bark xx Cinnamon Leaf xx Clove Bud xx Eucalyptus globulus Eucalyptus radiata Helichrysum italicuum Hyssop decumbens Laurel Lavender Lemon Lime, Steam-Distilled Manuka Myrrh Niaouli Oregano xx Palma Rosa Patchouli Pepper, Blackxx Peppermintx Ravensara (said by some to be effective against mononucleosis, herpes, shingles, flu, etc.) Sage, Dalmation Sandalwood Tea Tree Thuja (Cedarleaf) Thymes (I recommend Linalool) x True Melissa (against the herpes virus)
Another way to use the irritating oils anyway is just by putting the herb rather than the essential oil in vinegar.
One way you can do this is by combining it with the herb rotation schedule in the e4dc, and instead of throwing the herbs out after you made tea from them, put them in a pot with vinegar. Once the pot is full, you strain out the herbs and put the herb extract filled vinegar either in a soap dispenser if you want to use it for your hands, or in a vaporizer for cleaning. 570
The recipe for a powerful anti cold oil for on your throat and chest to relieve Covid-19 symptoms is: equal amounts of essential oil, one to seven drops depending on how much you want to make and strong you want to make it: peppermint, red thyme, benzoin, myrtle, manuka, eucalyptus globulus, peppermint arvensis, juniper, myrrh, hyssop, niaouli, tea tree, chamomile, helicrysum, kayput. Base oils, equal amounts (for example 100 ml each) Sweet Almond oil, grape seed oil and marigold macarate571.
To make a very powerful antiseptic and nice smelling anti septic hand wash, put some rose oil and ashwagandha in vinegar.
Comparative study on the antiviral activity of selected monoterpenes derived from essential oils.
“Essential oils are complex natural mixtures, their main constituents, e.g. terpenes and phenylpropanoids, being responsible for their biological properties. Essential oils from eucalyptus, tea tree and thyme and their majormonoterpene compounds alpha-terpinene, gamma-terpinene, alpha-pinene, p-cymene, terpinen-4-ol, alpha-terpineol, thymol, citral and 1,8-cineole were examined for their antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in vitro. 573
These essential oils were able to reduce viral infectivity by >96%, the monoterpenes inhibited HSV by about >80%.

For clean nails, dissolve some sodium bi carbonate in water and use that with a nail brush, for example each day in the shower, but you can also keep it by the sink.575

Prebiotics are types of fiber that feed the friendly bacteria in the digestive system577.
Although all prebiotics are fiber, not all fiber is prebiotic. Classification of a food ingredient as a prebiotic requires scientific demonstration that the ingredient:
Resists gastric acidity, hydrolysis by mammalian enzymes, and absorption in the upper gastrointestinal tract;
Is fermented by the intestinal microflora;
Selectively stimulates the growth and/or activity of intestinal bacteria potentially associated with health and well-being. 2
An important mechanism of action for dietary fiber and prebiotics is fermentation in the colon and changes in gut microflora. The human large intestine is one of the most diversely colonized and metabolically active organs in the human body.. Up to 1000 different species of bacteria reside in the colon with microbial populations comprising approximately 1011–1012 cfu/g of contents. 3
The colonic environment is favorable for bacterial growth due to its slow transit time, readily available nutrients, and favorable pH . 4
Generally, bacteria having an almost exclusive saccharolytic metabolism (i.e., no proteolytic activity) can be considered potentially beneficial. 5
Such a metabolic profile is typical for lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. 6
Mapping the diversity of and interactions among the human intestinal microflora has led to the initiation of the Human Gut Microbiome Initiative (HGMI) , an effort to identify this bacterial ecosystem.7
Together with the gut immune system, colonic and mucosal microflora contributes significantly to the barrier that prevents pathogenic bacteria from invading the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. 8
The intestinal flora salvages energy through fermentation of carbohydrates not digested in the upper gut. 9
The main substrates are endogenous (e.g., mucus) and dietary carbohydrates that escape digestion in the upper GI tract. These include resistant starch, non-starch polysaccharides (e.g., celluloses, hemicelluloses, pectins, and gums), non-digestible oligosaccharides, and sugar alcohols. 10
The main fermentation pathway generates pyruvate from hexoses in the undigested carbohydrate. Colonic bacteria use a range of carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzymes to produce hydrogen, methane, carbon dioxide, SCFAs (mainly acetate, propionate and butyrate), and lactate. 11
Certain colonic bacteria generate energy from these fermentation products. Dietary components that stimulate fermentation lead to an increase in bacterial mass and consequently fecal mass and, thus have a stool bulking effect. It is estimated that about 30 g of bacteria are produced for every 100 g of carbohydrate that is fermented.12
Prebiotics occur naturally in leeks, asparagus, chicory, Jerusalem artichokes, garlic, onions, wheat and oats.13
Lemon peel16 is an excellent prebiotic to combat Covid-19, with added benefit of having hespiridin17.
Clean thoroughly though, also to make sure there are no pesticides on there.18
Chocolate or cocoa is considered a prebiotic that is rich, among other chemicals, in polyphenols (Redovniković et al., 2009). These polyphenols are flavonoids in which procyanidins, like catechin and epicatechin oligomers, constitute the majority of the proanthocyanidin member in this class.19
With happiness I mean the foundation of spiritual, emotional and physical well being to boost the levels of dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, endorphin needed for optimum immune function697.
Often this alone is enough to prevent and overcome disease, and it is also why you would want to.
Goal achievement. When we achieve one of our goals, our brain releases dopamine. The brain finds this dopamine rush very rewarding. It seeks out more dopamine by working toward another goal.Larger goals typically come with increased dopamine. However, it’s best to start with small goals to improve your chances of success. Short-term goals can add up to achieve a long-term goal (and a bigger reward). This pattern keeps a steady release of dopamine in your brain700. I like the zoom in-zoom out method. When you are overwhelmed, zoom in, until you can handel it again. When you are bored, zoom out to the larger goals, until you can see each otherwise boring activity as a step in the direction of th larger goal and get excited again. We need to always stay in gear and be intentional in our wishes, prayers, thoughts, words and deeds in order not to regress to subconscious negative patterns that don’t serve anything or anyone.
Spending time in nature, Even as little as 5 minutes a day boosts dopamine levels702.
When prayer elicits feelings of love and compassion, there is a release of d dopamine703.
Novelty: The brain reacts to novel experiences by releasing dopamine. You can naturally increase your dopamine by seeking out new experiences. Any kind of experience will work. You can do something simple like a new hobby or recipe. Or you can try something grand like skydiving. The less familiar you are with the activity, the more likely your brain will reward you with dopamine704.
Beauty, regardless of the sense with which it is perceived, also gives a dopamine rush705. So keep your environment clean and beautiful and surround yourself with beauty, nice music, beautiful art, nature, in order to keep your dopamine levels up.
Foods containing tyrosine, phenylalanine and L-dopa
Adults should consume tyrosine and phenylalanine combined in an amount equal to 14 milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day. The two substances are combined because they work together in your body708.
Both tyrosine and phenylalanine are naturally found in protein-rich foods such as
Phenylalanine containing foods: (RDA 12.5mg per kg . As such, a person weighing 70kg (~154 pounds) should consume around 875mg of phenylalanine per day) 715
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that mediates satisfaction, happiness and optimism. Serotonin levels are reduced in depression, and most modern anti-depressant drugs, known as serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), act by increasing the amount of serotonin available to brain cells719.Serotonin mediates many complex processes in the brain. It’s perhaps best known for its role in regulating mood. It’s also thought to help regulate several life-sustaining functions, such as breathing 720 Serotonin is one of the most important neurotransmitters involved in emotional regulation721, which affect decision-making722. Serotonin has to do with the sleep-wake cycle and motor activity723, Serotonin enhances our mood, (think anti-depressant), our willpower, and motivation724. Serotonin can lower hostility and symptoms of depression. It also encourages agreeableness725. Serotonin has an important role in wound healing in the context of burn injuries. Serotonin promoted cellular viability, proliferation and migration of both fibroblasts and neonatal keratinocytes (in vitro), whereas inhibition of the 5HTR2A receptor by ketanserin resulted in opposite effects 726.In the central nervoussystem (CNS), serotonin is almost exclusively produced in neurons originating in the raphe nuclei located in the midline of the brainstem. These serotonin-producing neurons form the largest and most complex efferent system in the human brain727. Serotonin (5HT) has significant effects on renal metabolism and glomerular function and is a potent renal vasoconstrictor. The enzymatic activity for the synthesis of serotonin in the kidney is comparable to that in the brain, with the complete pathway localized to renal cortical proximal tubules728. It can be linked to mind.
Serotonin is an endogenous biogenic amine which, like histamine, has potent effects on small blood vessels and on smooth muscles. 729
Behaviors that boost serotonin levels are:
Regular exercise for at least 30 minutes each day improves one’s overall mood. Research has revealed that long-term cardiovascular exercise boosts serotonin levels in the brain.
As is the case with dopamine levels, spending time in nature boosts serotonin levels as well. , Even as little as 5 minutes a day boosts serotonin levels. The amount of time spent in sunlight correlates with serotonin and dopamine synthesis. Even a brief walk in the park can improve your well-being. 730.
Omega-3-ALA boosts serotonin levels. It helps serotonin trigger nerve cell receptors, making transport easier. Many studies have shown that omega-3s help reduce depressive symptoms738.
Omega-3-ALA Food Sources739: Flax seeds, Hemp seeds, Chia seeds, Walnuts, Black- and White Mustard seeds
Be sure to balance it with Omega-6-LA. See Chapter 7.2.
having some tryptophan in your diet is important. If you don’t have enough, your serotonin levels will drop. If you need more tryptophan, you can get it by eating starchy foods like whole wheat bread, potatoes, and corn740.
RDA Tryptophan:
While typical intake for many individuals is approximately 900 to 1000 mg daily, the recommended daily allowance for adults is estimated to be between 250 mg/day5,12,13 and 425 mg/day,4,14,15 which translates to a dietary intake of 3.5 to 6.0 mg/kg of body weight
*e.g. The recommended daily allowance for a 79 kg (175 lb) adult is 278 to 476 mg.
**CAAs = Isoleucine, Leucine, Phenylalanine, Tyrosine, and Valine, the five large neutral amino acids typically included in the tryptophan/CAA ratio741.
Coffee increases your serotonin and dopamine levels for as long as you take it. Once you stop drinking coffee, you will go into withdrawal. Your brain, used to the high levels of neurotransmitters, will act as if there is a deficiency. It can take up to 12 days of caffeine-free diet for the brain to return to its normal state. Omega-3-ALA,on the other hand, causes a rise in serotonin levels without any withdrawal743.
Nitric oxide increases dopamine and serotonin release in the medial preoptic area744
Nitric Oxide and Nitric Oxide level increasing foods: L-Argenine,
Nitrate745 in vegetables produce Nitric Oxide, which increases Serotonin and Dopamine levels
Nitrate, a compound found in certain vegetables, is one of the many reasons vegetables are healthy for you.
Vegetables high in nitrate include
Celery
Cress
Chervil
Lettuce
Beetroot
Spinach
Arugula
When these foods are consumed, nitrates are converted into nitric oxide, which confers a wide range of health benefits related to heart health and exercise performance.
In fact, several analyses have shown that eating nitrate-rich vegetables can lower blood pressure as much as some blood pressure medications .
Strong evidence favors nitrates, especially from beetroot, for improving exercise performance in athletes .
Despite the effects that nitrates have on nitric oxide production in your body, some people avoid them for fear they are harmful and contribute to cancer.
This is likely because sodium nitrates are commonly used as a preservative and color fixative in bacon, cold cuts and hot dogs.
Eating these foods is linked to bowel cancer, and nitrates are thought to be the culprit (10Trusted Source, 11Trusted Source).
Nitrates can form N-nitroso compounds, such as nitrosamine, which are capable of causing cancer.
However, vegetables, which account for more than 80 percent of nitrate intake, contain antioxidants like vitamin C, which help prevent the formation of N-nitroso compounds.
Therefore, nitrates from vegetables are harmless, whereas nitrates in processed meats can be troublesome to health, particularly when consumed in excess over long periods.

Increase Your Intake of Antioxidants
Nitric oxide is an unstable molecule that degrades quickly in the bloodstream, so it must be constantly replenished (14).
One way to increase its stability and limit its breakdown is by consuming antioxidants.
Antioxidants are molecules that neutralize free radicals, which contribute to the short life of nitric oxide
These antioxidants are found in all foods but primarily those of plant origin, such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and grains.
A few important antioxidants include:
Vitamin C: This antioxidant helps your body form connective tissues, including skin, bones, tendons and cartilage. It also produces brain chemicals that help nerve cells communicate Take it along with all the nutriente in the Vitamin C clusterfor optimal absorption. See 7.5.1.
Vitamin E: This antioxidant protects cells from the damaging effects of free radicals, which are thought to contribute to aging and disease. It also plays an important role in fertility and keeping the immune system strong. Never insupplenments, only natural sources, I can’t stress this enough747
Polyphenols: This category of antioxidants is associated with several health benefits, including a reduced risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease.748
Glutathione749: Coined “the mother of all antioxidants,” glutathione is the master antioxidant and detoxifier of every cell in your body. Your body synthesizes glutathione itself. Sulfur is important for producing glutathione. Therefore, make sure you’re eating sulfur-rich proteins. See chapter 6 to see what they are. Vitamin C is also important for glutathione production. See chapter 7.5.1 to see how to get that naturally. Selenium is also important for glutathione prodution. 750 Not too much though, or your hair will fall out.
Several studies have found that ingesting nitric oxide precursors, such as nitrate or citrulline, with antioxidants maintains greater levels of nitric oxide in your body by helping reduce its breakdown.
Vegetables that are high in nitrate are also inherently high in antioxidants, which is likely why vegetables are so effective at increasing and maintaining optimal levels of nitric oxide . Antioxidants help decrease the breakdown and extend the life of nitric oxide in your body.751
Special bacteria in the mouth convert nitrate to nitric oxide. In fact, humans cannot produce nitric oxide from nitrate without these bacteria 752
The salivary glands and oral bacteria play an essential role in the conversion process from nitrate (NO3-) and nitrite (NO2-) to nitric oxide (NO) in the human body. NO is, at present, recognized as a multifarious messenger molecule with important vascular and metabolic functions. Besides the endogenous L-arginine pathway, which is catalyzed by complex NO synthases, nitrate in food contributes to the main extrinsic generation of NO through a series of sequential steps (NO3–NO2–NO pathway). Up to 25% of nitrate in circulation is actively taken up by the salivary glands, and as a result, its concentration in saliva can increase 10- to 20-fold. However, the mechanism has not been clearly illustrated until recently, when sialin was identified as an electrogenic 2NO3-/H+ transporter in the plasma membrane of salivary acinar cells. Subsequently, the oral bacterial species located at the posterior part of the tongue reduce nitrate to nitrite, as catalyzed by nitrate reductase enzymes. These bacteria use nitrate and nitrite as final electron acceptors in their respiration and meanwhile help the host to convert nitrate to NO as the first step.753
Anti-bacterial mouthwash destroys bacteria in your mouth that can contribute to the growth of cavities and other dental diseases.
Unfortunately, anti-bacterial mouthwash kills all types of bacteria, including the beneficial ones that help produce nitric oxide.
Research has shown that anti-bacterial mouthwash kills the oral bacteria needed to produce nitric oxide for up to 12 hours.
This leads to a decrease in nitric oxide production and, in some instances, an increase in blood pressure.
The detrimental effects of anti-bacterial mouthwash on nitric oxide production may even contribute to the development of diabetes, which is characterized by malfunctions in insulin production or action.
This is because nitric oxide also regulates insulin, which helps cells utilize the energy obtained from food after it’s digested. Without nitric oxide, insulin cannot work properly.
One study found that people who used mouthwash at least twice daily were 65% more likely to develop diabetes than those who never use an anti-bacterial mouthwash.754,
This is what the study says:
Recent studies surprisingly show that dietary inorganic nitrate, abundant in vegetables, can be metabolized in vivo to form nitrite and then bioactive nitric oxide. A reduction in blood pressure was recently noted in healthy volunteers after dietary supplementation with nitrate; an effect consistent with formation of vasodilatory nitric oxide. Oral bacteria have been suggested to play a role in bioactivation of nitrate by first reducing it to the more reactive anion nitrite. In a cross-over designed study in seven healthy volunteers we examined the effects of a commercially available chlorhexidine-containing antibacterial mouthwash on salivary and plasma levels of nitrite measured after an oral intake of sodium nitrate (10mg/kg dissolved in water). In the control situation the salivary and plasma levels of nitrate and nitrite increased greatly after the nitrate load. Rinsing the mouth with the antibacterial mouthwash prior to the nitrate load had no effect on nitrate accumulation in saliva or plasma but abolished its conversion to nitrite in saliva and markedly attenuated the rise in plasma nitrite. We conclude that the acute increase in plasma nitrite seen after a nitrate load is critically dependent on nitrate reduction in the oral cavity by commensal bacteria. The removal of these bacteria with an antibacterial mouthwash will very likely attenuate the NO-dependent biological effects of dietary nitrate.755
Therefore, to maintain adequate nitric oxide production, use mouthwash that kills pathogens but not friendly bacteria, .756
L-arginine is a conditional essential amino acid, meaning it only has to be consumed in the diet under certain conditions. Normally our bodies make all it needs.
It directly produces nitric oxide through a process called the L-arginine-NO pathway.
Several studies support the use of L-arginine for increasing blood flow in case of high blood pressure, and during pregnant women, L-arginine is effective at lowering blood pressure
However, evidence on the ability of L-arginine to improve blood flow or exercise performance in healthy individuals remains mixed.
L-arginine is generally recognized as safe when taking 20 grams per day, but it may cause digestive symptoms at dosages as low as 10 grams 758
Foods that contain more arginine than lysine are chocolate, carob, coconut, oats, whole wheat, white flour, peanuts and wheat germ.
L-citrulline is a dispensable amino acid, meaning your body can make all it needs.
When L-arginine is converted to nitric oxide, L-citrulline is produced as a byproduct.
L-citrulline can then be recycled back to L-arginine and used to increase your body’s natural production of nitric oxide.
In fact, L-citrulline increases levels of L-arginine in your body more than supplementing with L-arginine itself does. This is because a large percentage of L-arginine is broken down before reaching your bloodstream (35Trusted Source).
Studies have found L-citrulline to increase blood flow, improve exercise performance and lower blood pressure
L-citrulline is considered relatively safe, and there is a low risk of side effects, even with high doses 759
Some of the best sources of citrulline from food include:
Oxytocin is a nonapeptide originally known to stimulate labour and milk ejection.. Oxytocin can induce anti-stress-like effects such as reduction of blood pressure and cortisol levels. It increases pain thresholds, exerts an anxiolytic-like effect and stimulates various types of positive social interaction. In addition, it promotes growth and healing. Repeated exposure to oxytocin causes long-lasting effects by influencing the activity of other transmitter systems, a pattern which makes oxytocin potentially clinically relevant. Oxytocin can be released by various types of non-noxious sensory stimulation, for example by touch and warmth. Ingestion of food triggers oxytocin release by activation of vagal afferents. Most likely, oxytocin can also be released by stimulation of other senses such as olfaction, as well as by certain types of sound and light. In addition, purely psychological mechanisms may trigger the release of oxytocin. This means that positive interaction involving touch and psychological support may be health-promoting. The social interaction of daily life, as well as a positive environment, continuously activate this system. In addition, various types of psychotherapy involving transfer of support, warmth and empathy are likely to induce similar effects, which thus contribute to the positive effects of these kinds of therapies764. Recent studies have shown that oxytocin suppresses inhibitory neurons (which reduce neural activity), thereby allowing excitatory cells to respond more strongly and reliably. As a result of improved signal transmission, oxytocin appears to overall enhance the brain’s response to socially relevant stimuli765. Oxytocin also prevents weight gain. 766
Oxytocin is produced in the hypothalamus and is secreted into the bloodstream by the posterior pituitary gland. Secretion depends on electrical activity of neurons in the hypothalamus – it is released into the blood when these cells are excited767.
Oxytocin is activated by touch, for example in a consensual hug. Hugging and other forms of nonsexual touching cause your brain to release oxytocin, known as the “bonding hormone”. This stimulates the release of other feel-good hormones, such as dopamine and serotonin, while reducing stress hormones, such as cortisol and norepinephrine769. Oxytocin is synthesized in the hypothalamus and secreted from the posterior pituitary gland770.A high density of oxytocin receptors are present in the ventromedial hypothalamus (Bale and Dorsa, 1995). Oxytocin receptors are also present in peripheral tissues such as the ovary, testis, and adrenals as well as the uterus, mammary gland, liver, and fat cells771. People who release more oxytocin are happier and have better relations of every kind. Oxytoscn is a measure of empathy, and empathy makes us moral. 5% of people do not release oxytocin. Often because of childhood neglect or abuse772. Oxytocin can be linked to heart..
Behaviors that can release oxytocin in the brain are773:
Vitamin C from organic food sources like kiwi guava and rosehips783 Make sure to eat them in the right combination for optimal absorption784.
Alpha Linolenic Acid doesn’t make oxytocin, but it facilitates the transfer of neurological signals. For that to happen efficiently, the recommendation is 1.6 grams of Alpha Linolenic Acid a day for men and 1 gram of Alpha Linolenic Acid a day for women. That needs to be balanced with Linoleic Acid. To see how you can easily do that look here785.
Magnesium improves Oxytocin Receptor Function
These were the magnesium rich foods mentioned in 7.5.2.d.
Dark chocolate798Cacao. Cacao stimulates the release of endorphins799, as well the happy chemical serotonin, and the bliss chemicals Phenylethylamine (PEA) and anandamide for a naturally positive outlook.800
High carbohydrate/high fat foods stimulate the release of endorphins. 802
Vitamin C. Ascorbic Acid supports the synthesis of serotonin, modulates synaptic dopamine and glutamate, and may also enhance the synthesis of endomorphins and endorphins.803 For Vitamin C rich foods and what tocombine them with foroptimal absorption, see chapter 7.5.1.
A study that proved that a healthy life style heightens endorphin levels.
A brief high-impact multidimensional rehabilitation program (b-HIPE) was proposed for a sample of people with MS (pwMS) with a medium level of disease disability.
The B-HIPE program is a multidimensional rehabilitation program focused on the change of bad habits in PwMS.
Several activities are integrated:
(a).
Neuromotor rehabilitation.
(b).
Recommended diet based on the Mediterranean diet principles: fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grain products, legumes, nuts and seeds, fish, eggs, and a small amount of poultry and dairy products. Red meat, processed meat, and alcoholic and sweet drinks are excluded.
(c).
Sailing course designed to accommodate disabled sailors.
(d).
Mindfulness with participation extended to all staff members.
The researchers measured beta-endorphin and catecholamines concentrations pre- and post-participation in the b-HIPE program, due to the relationship between these hormones and the immune system in neurodegenerative diseases.
Their results showed that after the b-HIPE program, an improvement of clinical parameters and QoL occurred.
Moreover, they found higher levels of beta-endorphin and noradrenaline after participation in the program.
These findings highlight the importance of implementing lifestyle interventions in the clinical management of MS.
Furthermore, they hypothesize that the B-HIPE program increased beta-endorphin and noradrenaline levels, helping to reduce the inflammation related to MS disease. 808
Natural Anti depressants
Ginseng
Panax Ginseng prevents depression by mitigating excessive cortisol secretion809
The name “ginseng” refers to both American (Panax quinquefolius) and Asian or Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng), which are made up of similar chemicals. Siberian ginseng, or Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus), is a completely different plant and does not have the same active ingredients. 811
And when you think of combining, also remember the substances that come back again and again as nutrient uptake enhancers: Olive oil, Vinegar, Sodium, Omega-3-ALA, Pepper.
Pepper for, for Pepperine, which is very important fir immunity, and which also helps absorb the Curcumin in Turmeric better. 837

736Serotonin Stimulating Scents, Dandhea, July 4, 2022
737A potentially lethal condition, serotonin syndrome (SS) is caused most often when certain antidepressant agents are taken concurrently with other drugs that modulate synaptic serotonin levels.1,2 When patients take two or more antidepressants from different pharmacologic classes, drug-drug interactions may occur; these interactions may lead to potentially severe serotonin toxicity, or SS. This syndrome was first described during the 1960s in studies of monotherapy and combination therapy with antidepressant medications. Some drugs that increase serotonin release are dextromethorphan, meperidine, methadone, methylenedioxymethamphetamine (also known as MDMA or ecstasy), and mirtazapine.Nov 17, 2010 , US Pharmacist, November 17, 2010, https://www.uspharmacist.com/article/drug-induced-serotonin-syndrome
