    Serotonin Production In The Gut Is Fully Controlled By Microbiome

    A year and a half ago I posted about a study which found that serotonin production in the gut depends on the bacteria living in the colon. Serotonin Production (gut) Depends On Bacteria At the time, the study was considered controversial as the role of microbiome in serotonin production was...

    Endotoxin (LPS) Is A Probable Cause For Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS / ME)

    It seems like the bad news about endotoxin (LPS) just don't stop. After the recent studies implicating in many degenerative conditions, and especially Alzheimer, systemic sclerosis, ALS, etc not this study links it to the so-called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS / ME), which the medical...

    Endotoxin (LPS) May Be A Causative Factor In Alzheimer Disease (AD)

    I posted recently about a study that found many of the chronic degenerative diseases can be traced back to endotoxin and excess iron. Endotoxin And Iron Finally Recognized As Potential Causes Of Many Diseases This study went a step further and identified endotoxin (LPS) in the brains of AD...

    Low Social Status Damages The Immune System

    I have posted before on the link between status and health and I think user @Such_Saturation also posted a study on reversal of dominant social status leading to serotonergic dominance. This latest study shows that it is the relative difference of social status that matters. So, even though a...

    Systemic Sclerosis (scleroderma) May Be Due To Endotoxin; Blocking TLR4 Can Treat It

    In a recent interview Peat explained the connection between endotoxin, hypothyroidism, and rheumatoid arthritis. I recently posted a study claiming that chronic activation of the endotoxin receptor TLR4 synergizes greatly with iron and is probably a causative factor in many degenerative...

    Glycine Is An Endotoxin (TLR4) Antagonist

    We can now add glycine to the substances that inhibit endotoxin or its effects. The endotoxin antagonism probably explains a good deal of glycine's protective effects on the liver from all sorts of assaults, but especially ethanol/alcohol (which is a known TLR4 agonist). The in-vivo study used a...

    Low-dose DHEA Inhibits Aromatase By 35% And Endotoxin Blocks That Effect

    I found this study while researching the conversion of DHEA into steroids with immunomodulating effects. As you can see (attached picture), a DHEA concentration of 1µM inhibited aromatase activity by about 35%. This concentration of DHEA can be easily achieved with 3mg - 5mg topical DHEA in...

    DHEA Protects From Endotoxin Effects And Lethality

    Sepsis is the leading cause of death in patients hospitalized for infections. There is no accepted treatment, at least officially, that can change the course of the sepsis for the better. This study shows that a single HED dose of as little as 5mg - 7mg daramatically increased survival from a...

    Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) Is Endotoxin (LPS / TLR4) Antagonist

    This is just a follow up on the recent post on both riboflavin and vitamin D. Vitamin B2 Remarkably Effective Against Endotoxin, Sepsis, And Other Bacterial Infections https://raypeatforum.com/community/threads/vitamin-d-is-endotoxin-lps-tlr4-antagonist-may-treat-lps-linked-conditions.12060/...

    Vitamin D Is Endotoxin (LPS / TLR4) Antagonist, May Treat LPS-linked Conditions

    The activation of TLR by various substances like endotoxin, ethanol / alcohol, opioids, SSRI, etc is involved in the pathogenesis of many conditions, especially IBD, colon cancer, periodontal disease, etc. There are very few effective endotoxin antagonists in clinical use, which is unfortunate...

    Prostate Enlargement (BPH) May Be Due To Endotoxin

    BPH is a very common problem, apparently affecting more than 70%of men over 50. Ray has said in some email exchanges that prostatitis and BPH are linked with endotoxin. I was not able to find much published research on the topic but this new study finally makes that claim. What is more...

    Vaccines Contain Endotoxin; Endotoxin May Become A Drug For Sugar Cravings

    As if using endotoxin as a drug for treating IBS is not enough of an abomination, this news release caught my eye since it states that endotoxin is now used as adjuvant in vaccines, and also that endotoxinmay become a prescribed drug for treating sugar cravings. Wow, I wonder what's next -...

    Vitamin B2 Remarkably Effective Against Endotoxin, Sepsis, And Other Bacterial Infections

    Peat said in one of his interviews that vitamin B2, together with vitamin B1, selenium, vitamin K and CoQ10 are the most important substances for optimal mitochondrial function. I have been researching vitamin B2 and continue to be amazed at how underestimated this nutrient is both in...

    Endotoxin Can Cause Inflammation Independently Of PUFA

    As many people on the forum know, the primary driver of inflammation in humans is the metabolism of arachidonic acid into various inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and tromboxanes. If you remove arachidonic acid, about 90% of the inflammatory response goes away. However...
