    She has a lot of highlights abt Acne and root causes are as Daniel mentioned.
    But she also speaks about pore clogging skin care and cosmetics that on top can worsen acne.

    Daniel, thank you so much for your detailed reply!!!

    So, I bought their latest model and it fits perfectly. Having said that, I know that my NS has been under enormous stress in the last few years, not only because of my thyroid issue (Hashimotos) but also mentally.

    I will for sure share my next blood test results to see how to improve the situation with your help.

    I was fully aware of these root causes for dragging my HRV down. Now, let’s go back to how to improve and strengthen the HRV and the vagus nerve. Definitely need to improve perfectionism! Definitely need to address emotional issues.

    I already practice the zone 2 cardio, will try the 8 set approach during training.

    As for the beneficial foods to support the mitochondria, I am thinking of Protein, Omega 3, eat the rainbow and avoid refined sugars and grains!? But please share more!

    Thank you!

    I just listened to Dr G’s latest podcast abt the vagus nerve and its relation/impact on HRV.
    You need to strengthen the vagal tone, and get into parasympathetic NS with :

    1. move exercise
    2. Stress management mindfulness
    3. Emotional release
    4. Sleep hygiene
    5. Diet
    6. Breathwork
    7. Cold exposure
    8. Community/ nature

    As well as

    Gentle touch / hugs etc
    Singing
    Dancing
    Resonant breathing

    other than dry skin which for me is thyroid/ liver related, I do not have any kidney issue symptoms.
    I am 155cm with 52kg- not low. But for sure low muscle weight!
    My blood work in May (when creatinine in urine was 0.30) did not show kidney issues but liver stress.

    oh great. So then my next question is how much of hydrogen water should you drink a day? And what is the max amount you can drink in situations when you need a lot antioxidant (when sick or injury etc)?

     hi!
    My last blood test was end of March, and when I checked the results, I put myself on HCL since Iron, Calcium, Protein, Globulin and Zinc all were low. So now, with next blood test I hope those numbers have improved. 
    At the same time my Ferritin was slightly elevated but iron low. I knew I was missing Vitamin A, B’s and copper to help with the absorption,  so took care of that too.
    But honestly, I do not feel the difference whether I take HCL or not. 
    Will keep you posted on the new results, but I was so stressed in the past months that I might wait it out

    I worked with B and did her protocol of Gastromend and Broccoli Sprouts. After retesting of H Pylori was negative, I started HCL and we did lots of gut healing, too. No gastritis here

    Hi  
    Was the person supplementing with B12 when the test was done?

    I know that testing B12 in abc rather than in serum, which is usually done, is more accurate.

    and that is exactly what I had in my notes from way back from Dr Jess:
    Neutrophils fight bacteria
    Lymphocytes fight viruses
    I get there

     I re checked my papers and this is what I used for the Neutrophils/Lymphocytes pattern:
    *high neutro + low lymphs = chronic viral most often*
    *Iow neutro + high lymphs = chronic bacterial most often* 
    Looks like that is is not accurate and I will look into it ☺️

    Do you suspect the creatine supplementation is influencing any of her markers?

    women during their luteal phase may experience some insulin resistance. And if she had her blood drawn during that period, I thought maybe it could explain the higher glucose.
