I think LDN is incredibly overhyped. I'm not denying that it helps some people. At the very least I would advise anyone not to visit any FB groups, because most of them are cult like. If LDN didn't help, you're doing it wrong. Almost like the BPS crowd. I had a very negative experience with...

I agree. Allergens are probably also an important piece of the puzzle. My eyes start to itch and I sneeze a lot from beginning of August to sometime in September and then there's this brief peried when it's still quite bright outside and I can go out and spend some time to get the benefits, but...

I can tell exactly the same about myself. I'm completely screwed without D. Increased melatonin is probably why I experience such negative effects from being inside or even being outside on an overcast day. I have written about it here. Most of you probably know this, but daylight suppresses...

@dave30th Sorry if this has alrrady been addressed, but is there any particular reason why you removed Disqus coment box? I kinda liked it. It was easier to respond and see the whole comment tree.

Anecdotally, last year my whole family got seriously sick with flu, while I only had some nausea for a few hours. Surprisingly, I found myself feeling better for the next few days.. don't remember exactly how long it lasted though..

I'm pretty sure it was about metabolic trap hypothesis.

You clearly need some LP @andypants !

I know it's a rhetorical question, but I guess if they didn't, then all those studies would be pretty much completely useless. They should help to come up with hypotheses for clinical trials, nothing more. In reality, they're used to stigmatize illnesses and push for trials with terrible...

https://bjgp.org/content/68/674/442 Don't have the access to full text, but I don't know if I want to. My blood is already boiling. This part is interesting: How can it be justified? How bent are these people writing this nonsense?

Some cases.. Will they ever have the guts to say most cases? Or even better. How about the disease process is altering the ability of someone to deal with stress, i.e. affecting how their brain responds to stress? Oh, sorry. That's probably too much for psychology to handle at once.

I find this statement a bit dubious. I think bacterial infections are not that common to form any pattern. I thought I've heard some pwME reporting better health after getting viral infections. I wonder what infections is Davis talking about? UTI? Pneumonia? Gastroenteritis?

Actually I think that one isn't so bad. Not sure why many activists are so opposed to it.

Paul Whiteley's take on the whole Cochrane saga: https://questioning-answers.blogspot.com/2018/09/on-cochrane-and-wider-issues-of-facts-politics-evidence-based-medicine.html Nothing very original, but a nice overview.
