A new preprint study of 513 284 patients looked at the risk of developing cerebral venous thrombosis among patients who a. had COVID-19, b. people who had the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, and c. those who did not have the COVID-19 and its vaccine. Cerebral venous thrombosis or CVT is when blood clots form…
Addendum: Jan 24, 2023. Since this article’s release, the research has been published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Why is this article relevant? Knowing that the RNA of the SARS-CoV-2 virus can combine with human genes provides a deeper understanding of the COVID-19 disease. How do we know that SARS-CoV-2 can…
This article is about how Peripheral Artery disease. What it is, why it happens, what the effects are, and what to do about it. Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is the hardening of the arteries that supply the legs. It is part of the more systemic problem, Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD), which is the hardening and…
Millions worldwide have received the COVID-19 vaccines by now. Recently, there were reports that several countries, including Sweden, Latvia, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Denmark, Norway, and The Netherlands, halted the use of the AstraZeneca COVID vaccine due to the development of blood clots. Investigations are currently ongoing to see if there are a cause and…
This article is about blood clot formation after getting the COVID-19 vaccination. In recent news, from DW, Deutsche Welle, Denmark, Iceland and Norway have stopped administering the shot while Italy has banned the use of a batch of AstraZeneca doses as a precaution after an unconfirmed number of people developed blood clots. According to the…
There have been 1,381 deaths reported after COVID-19 immunization. The deaths from December 2020 until March 1, 2021, are reported on The Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). According to VAERS, To date, VAERS has not detected patterns in the cause of death that would indicate a safety problem with COVID-19 vaccines. Over 76 million…
This article dives deeper into the similarities between the proteins of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the human body. These are important to know since these similarities can lead to autoimmune diseases during COVID-19 or following vaccination for COVID-19. Autoimmune Disease associated with COVID-19 The COVID-19 illness caused the following autoimmune diseases in some patients. Kawasaki-like…
This article is about the Long Covid-19 Syndrome, wherein the symptoms of COVID-19 continue long after the acute illness has passed. Long Covid-19 is also known as Persistent COVID, Post COVID, and post-acute COVID-19 syndrome. The sufferers sometimes call themselves Long-haulers. It can happen to people who had mild, moderate, or severe symptoms of COVID-19….
July 9, 2022 update: The FLCCC Early Treatment Protocol is now The FLCCC I-CARE Early COVID Treatment Protocol July 5, 2022 update. The FLCCC updated its Prevention Protocol. It is all at The I-PREVENT COVID Protection Protocol. This article updates the MATH+ protocol discussed in— The MATH+ Protocol Results in Greater Survival in Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients. The…
This article can develop an autoimmune disease when antibodies originally directed against the SARS-CoV-2 virus attack human proteins. This is concerning because anyone who got sick with COVID-19 or those who get vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine may have a theoretical possibility to develop autoimmune diseases. Barebones Immune Response The way we develop immunity towards…
This article talks about the presence of immunity against COVID-19 in as much as 60% of the population, even if they have not been exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. There are 7 types of human coronaviruses or HCoV. Four of them are common. The 229E, NL63, OC43, and HKU1. The other two, MERS and SARS,…
This article talks about one possible cause of respiratory arrest in people exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus or antigens. A previous article, COVID-19, Autoimmunity, and Vaccination, discussed molecular mimicry between the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 and humans’ genetic makeup. As you probably know, the SARS-CoV-2 virus causes COVID-19. Molecular similarities between SARS-CoV-2 and humans can…
Autoimmunity is the condition where the body’s immune system attacks itself. The immune system loses its controlled and measured response to germs and becomes uncontrolled. Many factors cause autoimmunity, and viruses are one of them. A few of these viruses are the Human T- cell leukemia virus, type 1, Herpes virus-6, Hepatitis A and C…
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or COPD is the third leading cause of death in the world. It is a devastating disease that leads to poor quality of life. Due to shortness of breath, people with COPD limit their physical activity. As a consequence, the muscle mass gets smaller and leads to more weakness. There are…
Blood flow restriction training or BFR is known initially as KAATSU. Yoshiaki Sato discovered it in Japan in the 1970s. BFR is the application of a tight band around the upper arms or the thighs. The right application of a BFR band prevents the outflow of blood from the veins but should not limit the…
Erectile dysfunction or ED affects 3-76.5% of all men based on a global study. The same study also found that when compared with men with no ED, men with ED have an increased risk of dying from all causes, including: Cardiovascular disease like heart attacks, hypertension, heart failure, hyperlipidemia, peripheral vascular disease, strokes Dementia Prostate enlargement…
Part 1 of this series mentioned commonly used drugs for hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia that can cause metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome constellates five conditions: hypertension, obesity, high blood sugar, low HDL, and high triglycerides. These five conditions work together in several combinations and bring out many common chronic complicated diseases. This article talks about drugs…
Metabolic syndrome is a constellation of five medical conditions: hypertension, high blood sugar, obesity, low HDL, and triglycerides. All five work together to cause common medical conditions that lead to expensive medical bills and early death. Heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and hypertensive crises, and many others are best avoided. A sedentary lifestyle and high caloric…
The Buchinger Wilhelmi Clinic in Überlingen, Germany, is a specialized facility where people can stay for several days and undergo supervised therapeutic fasting. It was started by a German physician Otto Buchinger, credited to being the first to document the health effects of fasting on several diseases. His book, “The Therapeutic Fasting Cure,” published in…
Can fasting normalize blood pressure, decrease cholesterol, and improve diabetes in the extremely obese? That question was answered in a study that was published in 2007. The study included 110 patients with the following characteristics: 33 male, 77 females Ages 35 +/- 1 year Body weights are 131.7 +/- 2.6 kg (289 +/- 5.7 lbs)…
