Gosh! "Prolonged periods of stress can result in telogen effluvium." That would make me even more stressed. Have you checked your iron levels? I've been having iron absorption problems for a long long time. It's gotten to the point where I now have to supplement. But iron makes me constipated...

I'm sorry to hear about your challenges. That is not easy. Hopefully, you won't have any more relapses. Welcome aboard.

We can't possibly diagnose. We can share our own experiences. You did not say what blood tests were negative. From my experience, I suggest you look into iron deficiency. Iron deficiency anemia signs and symptoms may include: Extreme fatigue Weakness Pale skin Chest pain, fast heartbeat or...

That's very very very hard to do. Most of us can't even diagnose ourselves. With the cold hands/feet, did you check your ferritin, folate, B12? That has happened to me to often throughout my life. And currently, low iron not only makes me colder than everyone around me but also gives me...

Good news here. So far, it seems expensive, about $1000, and I don't know if insurance will cover. Mayo Clinic today recognized the debut of a groundbreaking multi-cancer early cancer detection (MCED) test called Galleri™ that can detect more than 50 types of cancers[1] through a simple blood...

Welcome aboard.

Malone says he deserves credit for more than just sparking hope. He dropped out of graduate school in 1988, just short of his Ph.D., and went to work at a pharmaceutical company called Vical. Now he claims that both the Salk Institute and Vical profited from his work and essentially prevented...

Keep in mind that vaccines are a lot more highly regulated than things like dietary supplements and various foods and beverages. Imagine what would happen if Pfizer were to not include a key ingredient, especially one that comprised 99% of the vaccine, on the ingredient lists submitted to the...

Here's an interesting study about plant-based "meat". Plant-based meat substitutes taste and chew remarkably similar to real beef, and the 13 items listed on their nutrition labels -- vitamins, fats and protein -- make them seem essentially equivalent. But a Duke University research team's...

This is sad to hear. It's become too easy for anonymous threats of any type. What else can he do? I've always enjoyed Mercola's advice. He is the only celebrity doctor who has demanded that this forum quit quoting or copying his info. Copyright stuff. We've honored that as much as possible. I...

Thanks for the info, and I'm awfully sorry that you are experiencing this stuff. I hope you have found something that will really really help.

That's good. Thanks for giving us a review. I know that magnesium is very calming to smooth muscles. It's the opposite of calcium. It's great when we can find the right formulation of magnesium. You say that you take it at night. Do you take it right before bed or some hours before? Do you...

I'm so glad you are fully vaccinated. Me too at end of March. Beware that you both can still get Covid19. But so far, reports still say you would not be sick enough to go to the hospital or die. It's so unbelievable that there is so much disinformation spreading. I don't understand the purpose...

I'm not familiar with Schizophrenia. When changing to such a diet, beware of not getting enough vitamin B12. I would think that B12 would be important to many functions including those of the mind. Maybe include superfoods such as beans, eggs, chlorella?

I have never taken it by itself. I've taken it in a supplement (can't remember which) that included Mucuna and Bacopa and some amino acid. I think L-theanine. I remember that I did not feel the supplement was worth it. Those were experimental days and I was taking too much stuff. Do you think...
