Generally but, chemicals trapped inside can be nuetralized or removed with help from natural products
I am not sure that I am that attached to my own life to expend the energy (emotional, mental and physical) to cleanse my body of all the chemicals that are trapped in it.
Milk thistle…
I have finally (after all these years of being neglected by the NHS) been admitted to a dietician clinic, to get help in expanding my limited diet, and in avoiding ALL chemically-enhanced foods. But the chronic fatigue clinic is the one I’m excited about… knowing that an intolerance to chemicals causes IBD and CF, which causes anaemia and malnutrition (and a whole host of other ailments via a domino effect of unfortunate circumstances) gives reassurance.
‘Hibernation’ would sum up the symptoms and feelings correctly, but I would never have thought it could actually be that… hibernation triggered by negative environmental factors to ensure survival… Something to bring up at CF clinic come first appointment time.
I guess I need to channel less nematode
Current thoughts since yesterday:
So… the condition went from being called ME to CF, and now it’s gonna be called HH… or some other such human hibernation term.
If they want CF sufferers to take part in their research trials, they should pay us… because the lower quality of life we suffer and have to endure is man-made. They should be obligated under such circumstances… and pay for our luxury bubble pads as standard.
Some are saying that it is too soon to say whether the changes (hibernation) is a cause or an effect of CF. hmmm
How many decades have they been asking for donations to help fund cancer research to find the cure? I know they have been asking since I was young and now I am in my fifties. At the very least 60 years of worldwide scientists “researching” the cures for cancer , I would guess quite likely 100 years of research. Radiation therapy and surgery are the best bets so far??? Really? Now take cancer or tumor treatments for animals. I have used DMSO to cure rumors and cancers for animals sometimes by itself and sometimes with another medication.
My point: therapy with a set treatment is profitable when it comes to humans. Hospitals invest in radiation and the machines that are astronomically expensive. All the treatments are investments. A true cure would not be profitable in the long run.
If you expect research to figure out yours, girl , you have a wait because archaic medicine is profitable. Oh sure every decade or so they drop in new hope. I might suggest going away from mainstream medicine. There are some honest few , too few doctors that publish and try to truly help.
If people would pull their heads out, irradiation of ALL foods is the answer regardless organic, GMO, or plain 'ol garden variety. But eat foods exposed to radioactive materials? We’re all gonna die! Horsepucky. Irradiation has been around for a long time but is rarely used because of the fear of becoming radioactive. More horsepucky.
Take a look: fda.gov/Food/ResourcesForYou … 261680.htm
Peter Parker became Spiderman after he was bitten by a radioactive spider and so does that mean Tentative will become Brocciliman after eating some radioactive Broccoli?
Every day you’re exposed to gamma rays, x rays, all coming from the sun. Are you a gamma man?
That would make me Sunman not gamma man!
Dabbling in processed produce is not doing me any favours, but I tried… gotta keep testing the situation every so often…
…usually with these:
The EU took control of our food industry a long time ago… about 2011 to be precise, and in that time 1000s have been hospitalised and started suffering intolerances to foods they were fine with before this date.
I think we also need to look at sanitizers and over sanitizing. Have you seen the commercials that have folks spraying their counters with a product , wipe the counter then prepare food on that counter? No thought of chemical residue. Then you have the over cleaning , disinfecting, just how is our immune systems supposed to work when a critical infection occurs if it has been weakened by too little use? People seem to think the immune system is just for germs and viruses, it is not , it should work for certain chemical invasion and amounts.
An over-sensitivity to chemicals can be debilitating in this modern age, as they are everywhere… we are surrounded, or is that… they’ve got us surrounded?
I think it is both. I have a dear friend that sanitizes everything around her. She then wonders why her kids catch every cold ,flue and passable illness that comes around. If a known brand name comes out with a cleaner she gets it due to trust of the name.
We can trace the trust in brand name back to our animal herd/pack instincts. Markets exploit those subconscious instincts. We all trust our favorite brands, mine, Anheuser Busch
UPDATE:
After my second Chronic Fatigue clinic (in the Infectious Diseases clinic, no less)
To be continued…
Naviaux looked at 612 different metabolites, which are intermediate substances such as glucose produced by cells as they break down larger molecules and produce energy. They found that 80 percent of the metabolites were lower in those with CFS. They also found what they described as “abnormalities” in 20 of the metabolic pathways.
All this suggests that the metabolism of people with CFS is markedly slowed down.
The researchers said it appears to be similar to the “dauer state” in nematode worms when they are faced with starvation, overcrowding or other toxic environments. The dauer state involves a massive slowdown of the metabolism — an ability that has been of great interest to researchers for years because it is adaptive and is essentially a “non-aging” state when no cell death occurs. Cynthia Kenyon, a University of California at San Francisco scientist who now works for Google’s Calico start-up, gained fame for doubling the life span of a worm by altering a single gene that regulates the dauer state.
When it comes to CFS, this theory appears to explain some of the mysteries of the condition, such as why many people seem to come down with it after a trigger event such as an infection or exposure to chemicals.
In a Q&A to the CFS community, Naviaux described this theory of humans having a cell-danger response in more depth: “Historical changes in the seasonal availability of calories, microbial pathogens, water stress and other environmental stresses have ensured that we all have inherited hundreds to thousands of genes that our ancestors used to survive all of these conditions.”
When faced with adversity, cells go into defensive mode, he explained. “In most cases, this strategy is effective and normal metabolism is restored after a few days or weeks of illness, and recovery is complete after a few weeks or months.” But with CFS, it’s that possible the body got “stuck” in that state.
He said that although he does not believe that CFS is actually hibernation and although humans do not, in fact, hibernate, he said the “metabolic signature” is similar to that of animals in hibernation.
Stanford Professor Ronald Davis called the work — if it can be replicated and validated — a “game-changer” for people with CFS. For the first time, it presents a possible biomarker for diagnosing the condition and provides a target for possible treatments.
“What they found is that there may be an ancient pathway, and maybe in humans it’s not working very well. Or maybe people have gotten themselves too far down into the state and can’t get back out,” Davis said in an interview.
If that were the case, he explained, curing people of CFS may be akin to waking the body up. Davis said it’s possible that the treatment may not be anything radical; it might involve putting the body back in balance with the right mix of diet and supplements.
But even Davis cautioned that however alluring the paper’s implications are, “it is only a hypothesis.”
Davis, a professor of biochemistry and genetics, who was not involved in the original study, is collaborating with other scientists on a larger study to try to replicate the PNAS findings.
I can assure Davis that the answer is not a simple case of the right diet and supplements, or I would be better by now, but although that simple treatment does alleviate most of the symptoms it does not alleviate the actual fatigue.
I was talking to a fellow local Conservative doctor friend of mine yesterday about my sulphur remedy to help counteract my additive-induced gastrointestinal intestinal (GI) ailments, and he revealed that studies have shown that by the time the Japanese reach 3rd generation residency their cancer rates rise to that of the country they are residing in compared to their own very low rate.
Here’s what it looks like in a Japanese super market.

Is there some reason why you think this food is not loaded with the exact same quantities of the exact same preservatives? They are a tiny island importing almost everything they eat, just like you are. Were you imagining that Japanese people buy their food in open-stall markets on the street corner, all hand picked by Japanese farmers fresh that morning? They are a civilized country, they get their food out of plastic bags on a shelf same as everybody. If anything, whatever high-tech methods of food-preservation the UK is using, the Japanese probably had it 10 years before you did. We got MSG from them, for example, and asian food is absolutely loaded with MSG despite various scares and warnings about it in the West.
