Hi @LAK – to avoid having you repeat yourself, can you please link the previous thread discussion we had so I can refresh my memory about your case. Additionally, I have a few follow-up questions:
- When were these tests taken in your cycle?
- How long after starting supplementation did you have your blood drawn?
- How long have you been supplementing…

Hi @Inga-55 – no not at all! I definitely would not want to be putting PEGs in my vagina which are likely derived from formaldehyde which is cancer causing. Same with pheoxyethanol which can be a carcinogen, endocrine disruptor, allergen or skin microbiome disruptor.
Your question is timely because I’m working on a protocol for vaginal…

Vitamin B supplements while nursing
Hi @Annie – I would actually want to investigate liver / gallbladder health and fatty acid status first and foremost. Our skin’s outermost layer, contains a matrix of lipids (fats) and proteins that form a protective barrier to maintain hydration and protect against external damage. And since we need good liver function to produce bile, and…

Vitamin D for three year old and one year old
Hi @Annie – there are many variables to consider when it comes to increasing vitamin D levels from sun exposure; amount of skin showing, color of skin, age, geographical location, UV index, time of day, weather, duration, etc.
That’s why I really love the D minder app to help track vitamin D intake. It accounts for all of these variables so…

Bernadette_Abraham replied to the discussion Vaccine Protocol in the forum Vaccines 7 months ago
@healthyliving99 I would personally look for a doctor who could write a medical exemption because if a vaccine is not medically appropriate due to a specific health condition or for moral/religious reasons, a civil surgeon can certify this exemption and annotate the form I-693. Here’s what it says on the USCIS.org website:

Hi @healthyliving99 – may I ask where you’re immigrating to? As far as I’m aware, flu and covid boosters are not mandatory vaccines. Same with Tdap for adults.

@adoobeh99 it’s generally very safe to be taken with other supplements. Are you concerned about a particular supplement?
Have you seen our liver/gallbladder support video from the Gut Health Masterclass? You’ll learn that in addition to d-limonene, taurine and phosphatidyl choline can be helpful additions in cases where D-limonene was not enough…

Hello @adoobeh99 – d-limonene is indeed a wonderful component of citrus extract that can help decongest the biliary tract and has also been clinically proven to dissolve cholesterol-based gallstones. If you like to read literature, you can start with these:

Bernadette_Abraham replied to the discussion High IgE Levels in the forum Lab Tests, Markers & Interpretations 7 months ago
@sheetalramchandani1 if stress is part of her picture, then you know it will impact digestion and absorption of nutrients. This is key for her to work on and reduce.
Secondly, let’s explore histamine intolerance a little closer. With high IgE levels, we know that her body’s immune system is responding to an allergen (a few have been…

Hi @sheetalramchandani1 – I saw these results already. It would be great if they can also check RBC zinc and get a full thyroid panel. Unfortunately, TSH, T4 and T3 does not give us a good enough idea of her thyroid function. A full thyroid panel included TSH, Total T4, Total T3 (which they did) but also Free T4, Free T3, Reverse T3, anti-TPO…
