    Histamine and gastric acid, betaine

    I've struggled with brainfog for a long time - and found it was closely connected with histamine. I removed histamine from my diet as far as possible - it helped a lot, but was not a great diet. So, then I learned that histamine was a signaller for gastric acid - and my gastric acid production...

    Is it just...over-breathing?

    I've also discovered that hypoxia causes degranulation of mast cells >>>>> HISTAMINE, my total nemesis. I now have my face back from underneath all the constant puffiness. I'm quite fascinated by the urine thing - if it's acidic, that's an indication your body has had to eat into your alkaline...

    Is it just...over-breathing?

    Holy Mackerel, is it all down to over-breathing? https://www.equinebreathing.com/how-does-it-work I know this appears to be about horses, but it's really not (see extracts below). Are we killing our body's carbon dioxode levels by over-breathing and therefore disregulating all kinds of things...

    Younger - Neuroinflammation - brainscanning

    So, Jared Younger is pushing to develop a way to measure neuroinflammation. I'm actually astonished this doesn't exist yet! Question 1: I had to have CAT and MRI brain scans recently to find the cause of some nasal pain/facial neuralgia. They didn't find anything, probably because inflammation...

    Low blood volume without POTS, other questions

    I have PoTs, and my BP is very variable, hour by hour. The main independent indicator of my hourly/daily condition is my heartrate. From lying to standing it more than doubles, and that doesn't feel nice at all. I read somewhere (I forget, sorry), that low BP isn't necessarily a symptom...

    Brainfog: Not just histamine but BENZOATES?

    I've known for a while that I have a histamine sensitivity (all part of the loopy immune system, I'm assuming). What I only recently realised is that I have a massive natural-BENZOATE sensitivity too. If I eat raspberries, redcurrants, pumpkin, along with a host of other super-healthy (mostly...

    The Great Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) Gene Project

    I wish I could afford it! Three, maybe four people in my close family have ME/CFS or similar. Three generations – it’s got to mean something. Any researchers interested?

    Over $1 Million Spent Fighting PACE Trial Data Release

    I wonder if it's time to send letters to all our UK MPs, asking to know why research raw data used in public policy is not being made available to all. Surely government transparency would automatically require this. There can be no commercial 'secrets' at risk. And/or a No 10 petition.

    Over $1 Million Spent Fighting PACE Trial Data Release

    Hell, but they make me embarrassed to be English. Why is raw data not routinely required to be made available? Any old bollox could be claimed from any experiment, otherwise. Like theirs. I am feeling more and more contempt for the scientific establishment, with how sloppy their systems of...

    PACE Trial Gets Most Devastating Critique Yet

    Gosh, don't know - a government's desire to save welfare money and get a lot of 'feckless' people back to work, plus a massive old-boy network couldn't possibly play a part...

    Novel Finding Sparks NIH Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) Gut Study

    Ohhh, gluten. I love it, it seems to hate me. Every time I give in and make or buy some sourdough spelt bread (should be okay, so right-on), after a few days of eating it I end up feeling as though my entire gut is on fire. I've reluctantly thrown away my sourdough starter and am back on a...

    Glyphosate - why so little research?

    The more I read about glyphosate herbicide, the more I am convinced it may well be the cause of my illness. Yet I see no ME/CFS research related to it. Isn't this a little strange, a little too obvious to miss? its effects on the body sound just like my experience of ME/CFS and the results of...

    Switzerland takes steps back to dark ages - petition

    Apparently the view of Swiss politicians is that ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia are not separate diagnoses but belongs to a group of illnesses called functional somatic syndromes, i.e., psychosomatic disorders. The premise is that these should be treated only with various forms of psychotherapy. The...

    I'd Like to Learn About the Stigmas You Guys Face

    Believe = "fairies", quite. Also believe = "duped". I don't want to be 'believed', I want simple scientific facts to smack them over the head with. How about 'I get it' - as in they've looked at the evidence and it's sunk in, finally. And they don't get it, lucky them - we got it. Regarding...

    Elemental diet throws food sensitivities into sharp relief

    I wonder if The Low Histamine Chef might have something for you - she takes the line that you just can't keep excluding things from your diet, but instead eat lots of anti-inflammatory foods, herbs etc: http://thelowhistaminechef.com/histamine-safe-ferments/ It's the angle I'm following now.
