This sort of mishmash of results basically means they didn't find anything interesting I suspect.
Yes, and there is a significant issue when dealing with, for instance, people who have just had major surgery for gut problems with fluid...
That looks wrong. The Mg level in serum and cells seems to be similar - about 2meq/L. Intracellular volume may be a bit more than extracellular...
From what I can see from the Mayo Clinic serum levels do not give a reliable indication of stores but symptoms are unlikely to be due to magnesium...
I never got a reply from Mrs Floptop and PG Tips. Maybe I forgot to put on the address @Planet.Zog.com
It seems that proline is a weak glutamate receptor agonist but I don't see how this would change to produce an acquired intolerance.

We are clearly going to disagree, @Tilly. I base what I say on having worked alongside a hyper mobility clinic most of my working life, having...
I think what they mean by rapid physical exhaustion is the sort of thing you get with heart failure or respiratory failure (or my mother aged 100)...
The structural level of injury can vary, yes. In Alzheimer's the injury is microscopic (until the brain actually shrinks). In boxers the changes...
I think there is a confusion here. injury means structural damage - more or less. In ME we see no structural damage so as far as we know it is not...
Not according to Mr GRADE - Gordon Guyatt. His handbook for GRADE indicates that different people can come to different conclusions and it is not...
Absolutely. That was not intended even if it might seem so!
I think this is a useful discussion because it relates to how Cochrane might defend itself in the face of the sort of criticism being made. I...
Welcome to posting here @mikecunn11. An awful lot of research for ME is poor quality and the general view of this particular work is that the...
