PR had good Rich van Konyenburg(?) info re methylation (from a glutathione perpective)

She' s a scientist (?). The only way to deal with this is to counter narrative with facts and references. The claim re children is untrue - Dowsett + Colby researched school attendance as indicator for ME in 1990s, ( i think) and published a study on it. Most can be debunked in a similar...

Is this not the same illness that an eminent psychiatrist debunked? Seems it' s not all psychological after all.....

I expect a huge variety of cherries will be picked as biomedical science progresses. This is the aspect that should be publicly " outed" preferably in peer reviewed pieces

Given the questioning re the efficacy of CBT per se, i can envisage a lot of papers in the pipeline suggesting its use for many conditions to preserve infrastructure and staff...not due to either its appropriateness or effectiveness
