Hi @Annie – have you seen our Varicose Veins handout in the Symptom Dictionary? It provides some initial dietary and lifestyle steps, and supplements to consider.

It also lists possible contributing factors to help get to the root cause(s):

• Portal vein/liver congestion – Do you have a recent liver panel you can share? I remember you saying…

@Annie I know how frustrating that can be. Conventional healthcare is reactive, and not at all preventative. The best example is diabetes. People can show signs of insulin resistance 10 years prior to a diagnosis, and believe that they suddenly wake up with a diagnosis overnight for that exact reason; they are told “everything is normal”…

Hi @Annie – in addition to Daniel’s suggestion, my clients have also had success using Apex Energetics ClearVite CLA or ChC (vanilla or chocolate) for therapeutic short-term use (few months) as another option. Keep in mind, chocolate in general is high in cadmium (even if organic), so if it’s to be used longer term, best to look at no flavors…

Hey @Annie

medication…

Hi @Nadine,

Keep in mind that you’ve run many conventional tests, MRIs and luckily doctors have nothing to diagnose. This is a good sign!

You also just mentioned that Ciella isn’t feeling well. Depending on when this last test was done, acute viral infections can lead to increased TK levels, because of how viruses interact with the body’s cells.…

Hey @iryna_klevetenko ,

In the symptom dictionary, you can find a list of recommendations. Just click here.

Gout is caused by elevations of uric acid in the blood that form urate crystals in the joint(s). Uric acid levels can rise for various reasons. A diet high in purines could for example be the cause (see symptom dictionary for examples…

Hey @LAK ,

Many factors could play into the advice your friend has been given, so it’s hard to reply to that part. I can however clarify the relationship between the MTHFR mutation – or SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism).

Elevations in homocysteine are considered as a risk factor for clotting. Homocysteine is normally broken down to Methionine…
