Walk After Meals to Prevent Sky High Blood Sugars

This article discusses studies showing that physical activity can lower blood sugar levels after eating. Post-prandial hyperglycemia (PPH) exists if the blood sugar is above normal (hyper).  Post-prandial glycemia (PPG) is the blood sugar (glucose) level after eating (prandial). Different professional diabetes associations have their definitions of PPG. Any value above the normal PPG is post-prandial…

After meal blood sugar spikes as a cause of vascular failure

This article is about the damaging effects of high blood sugar on the blood vessels after a meal. Post Prandial Hyperglycemia Post-prandial hyperglycemia (PPH) is the medical term for increased blood sugar after eating. It occurs if the blood sugar is 140 – 200 mg/dl two hours after eating. PPH can damage the arteries. The…

How to Prevent Hyperglycemia with the Vegetables-Meat-Carbs Sequence

This article presents a study that shows how to prevent the rapid rise of blood sugar after a meal or Post-Prandial Glycemia (PPG) After-Meal Blood Sugar and atherosclerosis High blood sugar after meals is a risk factor for developing diabetes and atherosclerosis. It injures the inner lining of the arteries and starts or continues atherosclerosis.[1]…

Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease and COVID-19 in a Man

Doctors from the Harvard Medical School published a case report of a man who developed Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) after contracting COVID-19. CJD is considered the human form of mad cow disease. Misfolded proteins or prions are seen in CJD. Did the SARS-CoV-2 cause the CJD, or is it something else? The history went like this….

Multiple Sclerosis after the COVID shots

This article discusses the multiple sclerosis cases that happened after COVID-19 jabs. Mindy, a reader, asked me to look into Multiple Sclerosis relapses after COVID injections after her daughter developed more MS lesions in her brain after her shots upon advice by her physicians. Below are the search results from VAERS Data on how many…

VAERS Data: Neurodegenerative Diseases after COVID Jabs

This article shows VAERS data I obtained today, March 23, 2023. I looked for the number of cases of neurodegenerative diseases after all types of COVID jabs in the US from 2021 to present. Before looking at the VAERS data it is essential to remember the Lazarus report by Harvard Pilgrim Health Care that said…

Parkinsonism resolved by Nattokinase

Recently, I published Prostate and Vascular problems relieved with Nattokinase. In it, I described a case of a man in his mid-60s whose symptoms of long-standing prostate pain and vascular problems in the legs improved after one month of a nattokinase and serratiopeptidase combination.  His doctors are at a loss on what is happening with…

Nattokinase Degrades Amyloids and Prions

This article discusses the research that showed that nattokinase could dissolve amyloids and prion proteins. What are Amyloids and Prions? Both are abnormal proteins because they are misfolded. Proteins in the different parts of the body serve many functions. Proteins can be structural (bone), related to movement (muscles), and protection (skin). Proteins are also found…

Prostate and Vascular problems relieved with Nattokinase

This article concerns a man with severe prostate pain and leg discoloration whose symptoms were relieved with nattokinase. The Problem A man in his mid-60s had two doses of the Pfizer shot in November 2021. He needed it to travel to attend a wedding. After that, he started to have lower abdominal and prostate pain….

Should you take nattokinase on an empty stomach?

Can nattokinase survive the acidity of the stomach? Is absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract? Can you cook natto and retain the health benefits of nattokinase? To answer that, we look at studies showing gastrointestinal absorption, optimum pH, and temperatures to retain nattokinase activity. But before that, in case you are new here, I wrote about…

mRNA Gene Sequencing to diagnose Post-Vaccine Complications

Yesterday, I posted Cytokine Storms, mRNA changes, and COVID shots. In it, German pathologists could not find the cause of death on four people who suddenly died after getting the second doses of the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA shots.  Fortunately, they ran mRNA gene sequencing and found that all four cases of sudden deaths had upregulated…

Cytokine Storms, mRNA changes and COVID shots

This article presents a case series from Japan about four people who died due to cytokine storms after the COVID mRNA shots. I also present the possible reasons for how it happened. A cytokine storm is when the immune response goes berserk. We see it in the Syndrome of Inflammatory Immune Response Syndrome (SIRS). SIRS…

Aerobic, Resistance and Combined Exercise Lowers High Blood Pressure

This article presents a study that showed that different exercises could lower blood pressure similarly. The research was made to answer the question. What exercise is the best to lower blood pressure? Is it aerobic or weight lifting, or should they be combined? Forty-two participants, age 54 ± 11 years, with a resting blood pressure (SBP/DBP) of 137 ± 9/86 ± 6 mmHg…

Fasting Improves Diabetic Kidney Disease

This article discusses the two studies that showed the improvement of kidney functions in those with diabetes who fasted. An estimated 37 million Americans have Chronic kidney disease (CKD)—more than 1 in 7 U.S. adults. Kidney disease is present in about 1 in 3 people with diabetes and 1 in 5 people with high blood…

How to stop bleeding if on nattokinase

Nattokinase has anticoagulant properties. If you take nattokinase and have a cut, the bleeding may be more profuse than usual. It is the same as in any other drugs like aspirin or warfarin or newer ones like dabigatran. I have been taking nattokinase 2,000 FU every day since I have been writing about it. One night,…

Natto: An application of the 80-20 Rule

The 80-20 rule, also known as the Pareto Principle, says that 80% of outcomes or outputs result from 20% of all causes for any given event.  The ratio does not have to be 80-20 all the time. Essentially, it says that a massive amount of results can happen from a small amount of effort. Regarding…

How I Made and Appreciated Natto

This article discusses how I made my first batch of natto. I figured that with all the health benefits I learned about natto and nattokinase, I would be crazy not to take it. I don’t know any store or restaurant that sells it around my area, so I decided to make my own. It was…

Protective Effects of Nattokinase against Strokes

 This article discusses how nattokinase can protect the brain from the destructive effects of strokes.  Nattokinase (NK) is an enzyme derived from natto, a fermented Japanese food. It has been consumed for over a thousand years.  Stroke Strokes or ischemic cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) cause cerebral ischemia, a condition in which the blood and oxygen supply…

Insulin Resistance and Atherosclerosis and the Nattokinase Solution

This article discusses the relationship between insulin resistance and atherosclerosis formation and how nattokinase improves both. In a study that I previously referred to by Ren et al., they compared nattokinase (NK) 6,000 units with simvastatin 20 mg in 72 patients. After 26 weeks, it showed that nattokinase (NK) and simvastatin could decrease total cholesterol…

Soy Foods Do Not Increase Breast Cancer Risk

This article presents a series of studies showing that soy intake does not increase breast cancer risk. In contrast, the opposite is true. Soy intake lowers the risk of breast cancer. Breast cancer is currently the most common cancer globally, accounting for 12.5% of all new annual cancer cases worldwide. It is the second most…
