Chronic Disease Cryptic Infections Hibernation
Suppression of Inflammation and Surviving Cytokine Storms There are numerous unanswered questions in modern medicine. What is aging, for example? Why do people become more inflamed as they age? What’s with all of the chronic, degenerative diseases? Why is lipid metabolism (LDL, HDL, triglycerides) linked to degenerative diseases, along with immune system function and inflammation? I am only going to start the answers here. I might as well continue to be cryptic and give you the string of words/concepts I am trying to connect to answer the other questions: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), endorphins, hibernation, nuclear receptors (PPARs), antibiotics, chronic inflammatory diseases (fibromyalgia, arthritis, chronic fatigue, Lyme, Morgellon’s, Alzheimer’s, prostatitis, pancreatitis, cancers, etc.), autoimmunity, leaky gut/kidney/brain barrier, autism and H1N1. First a word of advice: Beware of assuming that molecules are specific, i.e. with unique interactions, and that a small molecule wil...
