Looking ahead, she's excited to dive deeper into these and similar health and wellness topics, featuring guest interviews and in-depth discussions based on listener requests.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTSIsabel's progress in healing from Lyme disease, Bartonella, Babesia, and relapsing feverSuccessfully staying antibiotic-free for nearly a year with exosome therapyManaging viral challenges like Epstein-Barr and human herpesvirus post-COVIDThe importance of liver detox, adrenal health, and sleep in the healing processPlans for future episodes featuring expert insights and listener-requested topicsCHAPTER MARKERS00:00- Welcome Back to the WellFuel Podcast00:17- Personal Health Update: Lyme Disease Journey02:08- Exosome Treatment and Health Screenings03:09- Herbal Support and Antibiotics05:55- COVID and Viral Challenges08:42- Liver Work and Clinical Insights10:38- Looking Ahead: Plans for 2025HELPFUL DEFINITIONSPrenuvo Scan: A Prenuvo scan is a full-body MRI scan that uses magnetic fields to image the body and screen for disease. Prenuvo scans are non-invasive, radiation-free, and can detect hundreds of conditions. “Herxing”: A Herxheimer reaction, also known as a Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction, is a temporary worsening of symptoms that can occur after starting antibiotic treatment for certain bacterial infections, such as Lyme disease, syphilis, and leptospirosis. Liver Flukes: Liver flukes are parasites that can infect humans and cause liver and bile duct disease.Epstein-Barr: Epstein-Barr virus, or EBV, is one of the most common human viruses in the world. EBV is also known as human herpesvirus 4 and is a member of the herpes virus family. Most people will get infected with EBV in their lifetime, especially in childhood, and will not have symptoms. EBV infections in children usually do not cause symptoms, or the symptoms are not distinguishable from other mild, brief childhood illnesses.Herpes 6: Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a common virus that causes roseola in children. Like all herpes family viruses, HHV-6 stays in your body for life but usually remains dormant (inactive).  This is not the same variant of the Herpes virus that causes genital Herpes or cold sores - that's Herpes Simplex 1 and 2. -----------------------------The WellFuel Podcast explores gut health, detox, hormones, mold, and more—hosted by Isabel Smith, MS, RD, CDN.

On Saturday, December 11, 1982, actor Nick Nolte was supposed to be the host of "Saturday night Live," but (for unexplained, and possibly booze related reasons) he was a no-show. Instead, for the first - and only - time, a current cast member stepped in as host, and it was: Eddie Murphy. In this episode of "THAT SHOW...", Nick looks back at that infamous SNL in which Murphy stepped in for his "48Hrs" co-star to host. He did the Cold Open alone, had a snappy monologue, and killed in sketches, but he caused tension between the rest of the understandably frustrated cast members, and confused many of the viewers. Nick will analyze and take you through the entire episode from top to bottom. It features funny work from Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Mary Gross, Joe Piscopo, and, of course, Murphy, but it also features not so funny sketches about Herpes Simplex 2, Rubiks Cube Hand-Grenades, and a wacky dance theater for the blind. Eddie Murphy was only 21 years old, had a hit movie & comedy album, and was on top of the world, but this desperate gimmick ultimately did not sit well with most people, especially since he introduced the episode with the sentence: "Live from New York, it's The Eddie Murphy Show!

Oncotarget published "Host targeted antiviral (HTA): functional inhibitor compounds of scaffold protein RACK1 inhibit herpes simplex virus proliferation" which reported that due to the small number of molecular targets in viruses and the rapid evolution of viral genes, it is very challenging to develop specific antiviral drugs. In addition, HIV-1 and Herpes Simplex virus are known to use IRES as well. By utilizing the crystal structure of the RACK1A protein from the model plant Arabidopsis and using a structure based drug design method, dozens of small compounds were identified that could potentially bind to the experimentally determined functional site of the RACK1A protein.

Virologists reveal how poor man's amino acid cure for COVID-19 would abolish need for vaccines Bio-Virus Research Inc (Nevada), September 15, 2021 A natural cure for COVID-19 that is widely available and affordable for even the poorest of people on the planet has been confirmed by a team of virologists who have spent a lifetime studying the underlying causes of viral infections. Backed by decades of research and safety data for herpes-family viruses, U.S.-based researchers at Bio-Virus Research Inc, Reno, Nevada, report on the successful treatment of the first 30 frontline doctors and nurses and a thousand-plus patients given the amino acid lysine to prevent and even abolish COVID-19 coronavirus infections at a clinic in the Dominican Republic.  Astonishingly, symptoms of COVID-19 are reported to have dissipated within hours of this natural treatment. The medical staff at a clinic in the Dominican Republic was coming down with two cases of coronavirus per month before lysine therapy was instituted. The virologists, Drs. Christopher Kagan, Bo Karlicki and Alexander Chaihorsky, strongly suggested the front-line healthcare workers embark on a daily regimen of lysine therapy due to daily exposure to the virus.  Their ground-breaking report is published online at ResearchGate.net. Arginine/lysine balance Lysine therapy interrupts the replication of viruses, including COVID-19 coronavirus, by countering arginine, an amino acid that fosters the eruption of dormant viruses.  Lysine has been safely used for decades to quell herpes virus outbreaks that cause cold sores on the lips (herpes labialis), a treatment pioneered by one of the Bio-Virus Research team members in 1974. Lysine is available in foods and in concentrated form in inexpensive dietary supplements (250 500-milligram lysine tablets can be purchased for under $5 US or 2-cents per tablet), making affordable lysine therapy possible. Lysine/arginine imbalance would explain why patients who have been infected with COVID-19 have recurrent infections, even after vaccination. Lysine Rx in Dominican Republic The daily therapeutic supplement regimen for the medical staff in the Dominican Republic consisted of 2000 milligrams of lysine capsules along with restricted dietary consumption of arginine-rich foods such as nuts, chocolate, orange juice, pumpkin, sesame seeds, wheat germ. The Bio-Virus Research team found doses of supplemental lysine up to 4000 milligrams to be safe and effective. Foods that have a high ratio of lysine over arginine such as eggs, tofu, fish (not raw), sardines, cheese, meats such as pork, poultry and red meat, and yogurt) provide a high ratio of lysine over arginine, thus blocking replication of all coronaviruses including COVID-19. According to the virologists who were interviewed by this reporter, over 1000 patients have now been successfully treated with surprisingly rapid dissolution of symptoms and return to health.  Even severely infected COVID-19 patients have been able to come off the ventilator with lysine therapy, say doctors. Third-party validation for lysine therapy Writing in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases another research team based in New York and Texas reports that arginine depletion is a strategy to quell both coronaviruses and other herpes family viruses. In 2016 researchers documented that lysine impairs the growth of coronaviruses in a lab dish. The Bio-Virus Research team are not loners nor out on a scientific limb.  A report, published in the Journal of Antivirals & Antiretrovirals, is what prompted to the current discovery that was put into clinical practice in the Dominican Republic.  The science was in place prior to the announcement a mutated coronavirus was sweeping the globe which no one had immunity towards. Dietary intake The Recommended Daily dietary intake of lysine is 2660 milligrams for a 154-lb (70 kilogram) adult; 3640 milligrams during pregnancy. Dietary intake of lysine in western populations ranges from 40-180 milligrams per day per kilogram (2.2 lbs.) of body weight, or 2800-12,600 milligrams for a 154 lb. (70 kilogram) adult. It is the balance of arginine to lysine that controls the eruption of dormant viruses in the body.  The average intake of arginine is estimated to be 4000-6000 milligrams per day. Other health benefits Supplemental lysine also has other health benefits.  Lysine increases absorption of calcium, relieves bouts of anxiety, promotes wound healing, and is helpful for other conditions.  Cholesterol is deposited in binding sites within coronary arteries.  When lysine (and vitamin C) occupy those binding sites, cholesterol is not deposited in arteries. Prevalence of herpes viral infections Worldwide many billions of people harbor dormant herpes viruses that erupt into disease from time to time.  In 2016 an estimated 3.7 billion people had herpes simplex virus infection– around 66.6% of the world's population aged 0 to 49. Availability of lysine Lysine is largely produced by the tons for animal feedstuffs.  Roughly 2,200,000 tons of lysine are produced annually.  There is no shortage. Billions may benefit The most frequent medical application of lysine therapy has been the quelling of active herpes infections (on skin, lips, etc.), and eradication of Epstein-Barr infection, Bell's palsy, etc. Researchers bemoan the fact that lysine therapy hasn't become a mainstay in the treatment of herpes infections that affect ~80% of the world's population over expensive and problematic anti-viral drugs because it doesn't generate sufficient profit to attract funding for human clinical trials.  Lysine is superior to various anti-viral drugs. If lysine lives up to its promise as a universal COVID-19 antidote for therapeutic and preventive use, unless billionaire Bill Gates buys up and mothballs all the lysine production plants in the world like he has bought off agricultural land, and bought off news media, vaccine makers and politicians, the need for vaccines will become a moot and meaningless practice for COVID-19. Because of the long-term safety record of this dietary amino acid, the public can take lysine as a non-prescription preventive “medicine.” Epidemiologists baffled by low rate of coronavirus infections in India Despite its large population and poor sanitation, disease trackers are baffled by India's low rate of coronavirus infections.  Maybe it is India's lysine-rich diet of yogurt, lamb, chicken, fish curry that protects its population from viral disease.  The striking difference in the country-to-country prevalence of Herpes Simplex-2 infections (only 9.6% in South East Asian countries and 10.7% in Europe vs. 24.0% in the Americas and 43.9% in Africa) could be explained by the lysine/arginine ratio in native diets. Treat the severely ill; skip the problematic vaccines Vaccination is not fool proof.  Vaccinated patients are testing positive for COVID-19.  Doctors can choose to treat the 3 in 10,000 COVID-19 severely infected patients who are at risk for a mortal outcome with lysine rather than needlessly vaccinate billions of people.  Mass vaccination would not be needed, nor would lockdowns, quarantines and questionable mass face mask use be required.  The pandemic would be rapidly extinguished by a public information campaign regarding lysine-rich foods and dietary supplements.  The public can take action on its own today without adverse consequences.  Literally, trillions of dollars would be saved worldwide.  If not for COVID-19, at least for herpes infections. The shame is on the World Health Organization with a budget of $8.482 billion or the Centers For Disease Control with a budget of $7.875 billion that overlook safe and economical cures like lysine.  This report serves as evidence the world is being gamed to plunder the masses of their health and wealth.  The people of the world need to stop heeding advice from public health officials and practice preventive medicine on their own volition. There is additional evidence that lysine also halts the growth of influenza and coxsackie viruses. Further research Researchers at Bio-Virus Research Inc. are searching for research funds to further document the benefits of lysine therapy.      Omega-3 and Omega-6 supplement improves reading for children   University of Gothenburg, Sweden - September 14, 2021    Supplement of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids may improve reading skills of mainstream schoolchildren, according to a new study from Sahlgrenska Academy, at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. Children with attention problems, in particular, may be helped in their reading with the addition of these fatty acids.   The study included 154 schoolchildren from western Sweden in grade 3, between nine and ten years old. The children took a computer-based test (known as the Logos test) that measured their reading skills in a variety of ways, including reading speed, ability to read nonsense words and vocabulary.   The children were randomly assigned to receive either capsules with omega-3 and omega-6, or identical capsules that contained a placebo (palm oil) for 3 months. The children, parents and researchers did not learn until the study was completed which children had received fatty acids and which had received the placebo. After three months, all children received real omega-3/6 capsules for the final three months of the study.   "Even after three months, we could see that the children's reading skills improved with the addition of fatty acids, compared with those who received the placebo. This was particularly evident in the ability to read a nonsense word aloud and pronounce it correctly (phonologic decoding), and the ability to read a series of letters quickly (visual analysis time)," says Mats Johnson, who is chief physician and researcher at the Gillberg Neuropsychiatry Centre at Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg.   No children diagnosed with ADHD were included in the study, but with the help of the children's parents, the researchers could identify children who had milder attention problems. These children attained even greater improvements in several tests, including faster reading already after three months of receiving fatty acid supplements.   Polyunsaturated fats and their role in children's learning and behavior is a growing research area.   "Our modern diet contains relatively little omega-3, which it is believed to have a negative effect on our children when it comes to learning, literacy and attention," says Mats Johnson. "The cell membranes in the brain are largely made up of polyunsaturated fats, and there are studies that indicate that fatty acids are important for signal transmission between nerve cells and the regulation of signaling systems in the brain."   Previous studies in which researchers examined the effect of omega-3 as a supplement for mainstream schoolchildren have not shown positive results, something Mats Johnson believes may depend on how these studies were organized and what combination and doses of fatty acids were used. This is the first double-blind, placebo-controlled study showing that omega-3/6 improves reading among mainstream schoolchildren.   "Our study suggests that children could benefit from a dietary supplement with a special formula. To be more certain about the results, they should also be replicated in other studies," says Mats Johnson. The article Omega 3/6 fatty acids for reading in children: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 9-year-old mainstream schoolchildren in Sweden was published by The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry.       Elevated stress hormones linked to higher risk of high blood pressure and heart events Kyoto University (Japan) & University of California at Los Angeles, Sept. 13, 2021  Adults with normal blood pressure and high levels of stress hormones were more likely to develop high blood pressure and experience cardiovascular events compared to those who had lower stress hormone levels, according to new research published today in Hypertension, an American Heart Association journal. Studies have shown that cumulative exposure to daily stressors and exposure to traumatic stress can increase cardiovascular disease risk. A growing body of research refers to the mind-heart-body connection, which suggests a person's mind can positively or negatively affect cardiovascular health, cardiovascular risk factors and risk for cardiovascular disease events, as well as cardiovascular prognosis over time. “The stress hormones norepinephrine, epinephrine, dopamine and cortisol can increase with stress from life events, work, relationships, finances and more. And we confirmed that stress is a key factor contributing to the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular events,” said study author Kosuke Inoue, M.D., Ph.D., assistant professor of social epidemiology at Kyoto University in Kyoto, Japan. Inoue also is affiliated with the department of epidemiology at the Fielding School of Public Health at the University of California, Los Angeles. “Previous research focused on the relationship between stress hormone levels and hypertension or cardiovascular events in patients with existing hypertension. However, studies looking at adults without hypertension were lacking,” Inoue said. “It is important to examine the impact of stress on adults in the general population because it provides new information about whether routine measurement of stress hormones needs to be considered to prevent hypertension and CVD events.” Study subjects were part of the MESA Stress 1 study, a substudy of the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA), a large study of atherosclerosis risk factors among more than 6,000 men and women from six U.S. communities. As part of MESA exams 3 and 4 (conducted between July 2004 and October 2006), white, Black and Hispanic participants with normal blood pressure from the New York and Los Angeles sites were invited to participate in the substudy MESA Stress 1. In this substudy, researchers analyzed levels of norepinephrine, epinephrine, dopamine and cortisol – hormones that respond to stress levels. Hormone levels were measured in a 12-hour overnight urine test. The substudy included 412 adults ages 48 to 87 years. About half were female, 54% were Hispanic, 22% were Black and 24% were white. Participants were followed for three more visits (between September 2005 and June 2018) for development of hypertension and cardiovascular events such as chest pain, the need for an artery-opening procedure, or having a heart attack or stroke. Norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine are molecules known as catecholamines that maintain stability throughout the autonomic nervous system—the system that regulates involuntary body functions such as heart rate, blood pressure and breathing. Cortisol is a steroid hormone released when one experiences stress and is regulated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, which modulates stress response.  “Although all of these hormones are produced in the adrenal gland, they have different roles and mechanisms to influence the cardiovascular system, so it is important to study their relationship with hypertension and cardiovascular events, individually,” Inoue said.  Their analysis of the relationship between stress hormones and development of atherosclerosis found: Over a median of 6.5-year follow-up period, every time the levels of the four stress hormones doubled was associated with a 21-31% increase in the risk of developing hypertension. During a median of 11.2-years of follow-up, there was a 90% increased risk of cardiovascular events with each doubling of cortisol levels. There was no association between cardiovascular events and catecholamines. “It is challenging to study psychosocial stress since it is personal, and its impact varies for each individual. In this research, we used a noninvasive measure — a single urine test — to determine whether such stress might help identify people in need of additional screening to prevent hypertension and possibly cardiovascular events,” Inoue said. "The next key research question is whether and in which populations increased testing of stress hormones could be helpful. Currently, these hormones are measured only when hypertension with an underlying cause or other related diseases are suspected. However, if additional screening could help prevent hypertension and cardiovascular events, we may want to measure these hormone levels more frequently.” A limitation of the study is that it did not include people who had hypertension at the study's start, which would have resulted in a larger study population. Another limitation is that researchers measured stress hormones via a urine test only, and no other tests for stress hormone measurement were used.   Spirulina alleviates high fat diet-induced cognitive impairment via the gut-brain axis Weifang People's Hospital (China), September 9, 2021 Increasing evidence suggested that the gut microbiome-brain axis plays a critical role in regulating cognitive functions. In this study, we aimed to investigate the dietary treatment effect of Spirulina platensis on learning deficits in high fat diet (HFD) fed mice and clarify the potential mechanisms via investigating the gut microbiome-brain axis. Dietary administration of 1% and 2% Spirulina platensis for 16 weeks significantly improved the spatial learning and memory performance of the HFD-fed mice in both Barnes Maze test and Morris water maze test. The Aβ accumulation, tau-hyperphosphorylation, and neuroinflammation in the hippocampus were significantly inhibited by Spirulina platensis. Spirulina platensis also abrogated HFD induced gut microbial dysbiosis and unbalance of gut microbial metabolites indicating its modulating effect on the gut-brain axis. This study provides further evidence for the application of Spirulina platensis as functional supplement for treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Spirulina platensis was frequently used as both a food ingredient and a medical supplement to counteract various metabolic disorders worldwide. In the present study, we found that Spirulina platensis dietary supplementation significantly prevented the cognitive deficits induced by HFD- feeding in mice. For the first time, we identified the inhibition effect of Spirulina platensis on β-amyloid generation, tau-hyperphosphorylation, neuroinflammation, and the gut microbiota dysbiosis. In conclusion, the present study proved the beneficial effect of Spirulina platensis on cognitive impairment in HDF-fed AD mice and cleared Aβ, inhibited tau-hyperphosphorylation, and ameliorated neuroinflammation in the brain. Spirulina platensis also abrogated HFD induced gut microbial dysbiosis and unbalance of gut microbial metabolites indicating that Spirulina platensis might ameliorated cognitive deficits through regulating the gut-brain axis (Fig. 6). This study provides potent evidence for the application of Spirulina platensis as functional supplement for treatment of AD.   Regular exercise may lower risk of developing anxiety by almost 60% University of Lund (Sweden), September 13, 2021 A quick online search for ways to improve our mental health will often come up with a myriad of different results. However, one of the most common suggestions put forward as a step to achieving wellness—and preventing future issues—is doing some physical exercise, whether it be a walk or playing a team sport. Anxiety disorders—which typically develop early in a person's life—are estimated to affect approximately 10% of the world's population and has been found to be twice as common in women compared to men. And while exercise is put forward as a promising strategy for the treatment of anxiety, little is known about the impact of exercise dose, intensity or physical fitness level on the risk of developing anxiety disorders. To help answer this question, researchers in Sweden have published a study in Frontiers in Psychiatry to show that those who took part in the world's largest long-distance cross-country ski race (Vasaloppet) between 1989 and 2010 had a "significantly lower risk" of developing anxiety compared to non-skiers during the same period. The study is based on data from almost 400,000 people in one of the largest ever population-wide epidemiology studies across both sexes. Surprising finding among female skiers "We found that the group with a more physically active lifestyle had an almost 60% lower risk of developing anxiety disorders over a follow-up period of up to 21 years," said first author of the paper, Martine Svensson, and her colleague and principal investigator, Tomas Deierborg, of the Department of Experimental Medical Science at Lund University, Sweden. "This association between a physically active lifestyle and a lower risk of anxiety was seen in both men and women." However, the authors found a noticeable difference in exercise performance level and the risk of developing anxiety between male and female skiers. While a male skier's physical performance did not appear to affect the risk of developing anxiety, the highest performing group of female skiers had almost the double risk of developing anxiety disorders compared to the group which was physically active at a lower performance level. "Importantly," they said, "the total risk of getting anxiety among high-performing women was still lower compared to the more physically inactive women in the general population". These findings cover relatively uncharted territory for scientific research, according to the researchers, as most previous studies focused on depression or mental illness as opposed to specifically diagnosed anxiety disorders. Furthermore, some of the largest studies looking at this topic only included men, were much smaller in sample size, and had either limited or no follow-up data to track the long-term effects of physical activity on mental health. Next steps for research The surprising discovery of an association between physical performance and the risk for anxiety disorders in women also emphasized the scientific importance of these findings for follow-up research. "Our results suggest that the relation between symptoms of anxiety and exercise behavior may not be linear," Svensson said. "Exercise behaviors and anxiety symptoms are likely to be affected by genetics, psychological factors, and personality traits, confounders that were not possible to investigate in our cohort. Studies investigating the driving factors behind these differences between men and women when it comes to extreme exercise behaviors and how it affects the development of anxiety are needed." They added that randomized intervention trials, as well as long-term objective measurements of physical activity in prospective studies, are also needed to assess the validity and causality of the association they reported. But does this mean that skiing in particular can play an important role in keeping anxiety at bay, as opposed to any other form of exercise? Not so, Svensson and Deierborg said, given that previous studies have also shown the benefits of keeping fit on our mental health. "We think this cohort of cross-country skiers is a good proxy for an active lifestyle, but there could also be a component of being more outdoors among skiers," they said. "Studies focusing on specific sports may find slightly different results and magnitudes of the associations, but this is most likely due to other important factors that affect mental health and which you cannot easily control in research analysis.   Gut microbes are key to health benefit delivered by hops compound Oregon State University, September 13, 2021 The health-enhancing performance of a compound found in hops is dependent upon its interactions with intestinal microorganisms, new research by Oregon State University shows. Understanding how xanthohumol, often abbreviated as XN, works is important for unlocking its potential to counter diet-induced obesity and the health risksassociated with a global obesity epidemic, including type 2 diabetes and liver and heart disease, researcher Adrian Gombart says. "We showed that the gut microbiota are necessary for the beneficial effects of XN on glucose metabolism," said Gombart, professor of biochemistry and biophysics in the OSU College of Science and a principal investigator at the university's Linus Pauling Institute. "There is an important interaction between the compound and the microbes in the gut that provides the benefits we see in our studies with mice." Gombart led a team of 20 scientists from three Oregon State colleges in research that compared the glucose metabolism effects of xanthohumol on two sets of mice: "conventional" ones with gut microbiota, and those engineered to be "germ free," i.e. have no gut microbes. Glucose metabolism, the body's ability to convert the sugar into fuel, generally suffers impairment as someone becomes obese, which in turn can lead to the person becoming more overweight. Faulty glucose metabolism also negatively affects brain physiology and is at the root of multiple medical conditions including diabetes and heart disease. In previous studies involving mice, Gombart and colleagues found that XN improved the animals' health and changed the composition of their microbiome, the latter leading them to suspect that the mix of microbes played a role in XN's healthful effects. "In this study, we fed mice either a diet low in calories, high in calories, or high in calories but supplemented with XN for 10 weeks," he said. "We found that only the conventional mice with XN supplementation showed improved glucose metabolism and that XN increased the relative abundance of three bacteria, Akkermansia muciniphila, Parabacteroides goldsteinii and Alistipes finegoldii." Gombart added that the study yielded some evidence that those three microbes are at least partially responsible for the health benefits associated with XN, but the entire microbial community may be playing a role as well. "We can't rule that out," he said. "We know that XN needs the intestinal microbiota to deliver its benefits, and there are complex diet-host-microbiota interactions that bring changes in both microbial composition and functional capacity. Diet is recognized as a major force in shaping gut microbe composition, and future studies will look for insights into the various interactions at play." Earlier mouse model studies by co-author Fred Stevens, professor of pharmaceutical sciences in the OSU College of Pharmacy and also a principal investigator at the Linus Pauling Institute , have shown that XN, a polyphenol found in hops' cones, has a number of anti-obesity properties. It improves cognitive function and it suppresses weight gain associated with a high-fat diet, fat accumulation in adipose tissue and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is when cells don't respond well to the hormone that allows for the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream. It causes the pancreas to make more and more insulin to keep blood glucose levels within a non-harmful range and is a risk factor for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.   Antioxidant protects neurons   University of Edinburgh   September 12 2021    Research involving a potent antioxidant, described in Scientific Reports, suggests that the compound could help protect cells in several conditions, including Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosisand cell transplants. In their report, a team from the University of Edinburgh observe that the flavonoids quercetin and myricetin are among the most potent dietary antioxidants. Structural modification of myricetin has resulted in the development a new compound known as Proxison. In the current research, Proxison demonstrated 10 times the ability to protect against oxidative stress induced by the compound tert-Butyl hydroperoxide (tBHP) in neuroblastoma cells compared to quercetin, while several other antioxidants showed no effects. Proxison, as well as a high concentration of quercetin, also provided significant protection against cell death in tBHP-treated cells. Similar results were obtained in another neural cell line. An investigation of the antioxidants' ability to be taken up by the cells showed significant intracellular levels of quercetin and Proxison, and evidence for some localization of Proxison in the cells' mitochondria. In zebrafish embryos, Proxison helped protect against neuronal cell loss induced by a neurotoxic compound. Quercetin was also protective, but was less potent than Proxison. Neither therapy affected normal embryonic development. “This novel antioxidant can be applied to investigate oxidative stress in disease models, like alpha-synucleinopathies and other neurodegeneration models,” Nicola J. Drummond and colleagues conclude. “In addition, Proxison could have applications for regenerative medicine where oxidative stress has been implicated in poor cell survival of transplanted cells, with the advantage that the molecule can be pre-loaded into cells prior to transplantation. Proxison could also have applications for conditions, such as stroke or cardiac infarction, in which a temporary, but acute, exposure to oxidative stress is experienced, as well as diseases in which oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction are core features.”

«Yoga-Mental» die neuen Gesundheitswege " frisch aus der Alltags Praxis vom Team Mental-Power4you .. Herzlich Willkommen, heute mit dem spannenden Thema «Kein Bock auf Schule, Gerstenkorn, Magen-Darm und Herpes Simplex- die Themen eines Teenagers». Wer hat das in seinem Umfeld schon gehört? «Mama, ich habe keinen Bock auf die sch… Schule! Ich bin total GE-NERVT und zwar alles, aber auch wirklich alles NERVT mich! Auch Eurer ständiges rum ge-nörgel … mach dies, mach jenes…» Herzlich-Willkommen im Teenager Alter, oder besser gesagt «Junge Erwachsene»? Im Dezember 2020 erreichte mich eine Email, von einer verzweifelten Mutter, nennen wir sie Christine, 46 Jahre. Sie kam über eine Empfehlung von Ihrer Mutter, 82 Jahre. Ihre Mutter ist seit einiger Zeit Kundin, sie lebt in einem Alters-Wohnheim und wir vom Team Mental-Power4you, konnten Ihr wieder Lebensmut schenken, aber das ist eine andere Geschichte. Zurück zu Christine, sie schrieb mir eine lange Mail: Ihr Sohn, nennen wir Ihn Michael ist 16 Jahre. Er ist ein toller Junge schreibt sie, sehr begabt und ihr einziger Sohn und Liebling. Seit einigen Wochen/Monaten jedoch, hat sie es schwer mit ihm. Er jammert und schimpft dauernd, ist schlecht gelaunt, total genervt, immer gleich von 0 auf 100. Diskutiert und hat quasi null Bock auf nichts. Sie erkennt Michael nicht mehr wieder, war er doch immer so fröhlich, motiviert und hilfsbereit. Dazu kommen einige, anhaltende, körperliche Beschwerden, sie schildert mir von einem immer wiederkommenden Gerstenkorn am rechten Unterlid, ständige Magen-Darm Störungen und von Bläschen im Mund. Die Bläschen im Mund beschreibt sie als sehr störend, da diese offen sind und das Kauen und überhaupt die Aufnahme vom Essen beeinträchtigen, sie schreibt «Michael jammert, da es im Mund so stark brennt, es ist die Hölle!» Sämtliche verschriebenen Medikamente Mundspülung, Antibiotika verschafften keine Linderung. Auch die Behandlung des Gerstenkornes, sei ein echtes Drama – seit Monaten Tropfen, Salben, Medikamente. Teilweise sei das Auge total zugeschwollen, was nicht nur schmerzhaft ist, sondern schlimm ausschaut und das bei einem jungen Mann! Die Mitschüler hänseln ihn «Da ist ja der EIN-Äugige, bäh sieht das ekelig aus». Christine schreibt weiter, mir geht es selbst auch nicht gut, ich habe alles Mögliche versucht, Ärzte gewechselt, Heilpraktiker aufgesucht- sie bemerkte die Heilpraktiker haben noch die grösste Linderung verschafft, doch Michael glaubt nicht an diese Globuli und sie ist sich nicht sicher, ob er diese regelmässig, wie verordnet einnehmen würde. Ihre Mutter habe ihr schon vor Wochen geraten, mit uns Kontakt aufzunehmen. Ihre Mutter hat so von uns geschwärmt und Sie vermutet, die Probleme von Michael liegen mehr auf der psychischen Ebene und da wäre sie, sprich Michael, beim Team Mental-Power4you genau richtig! Vor allem müsste sie nicht mit Michael zu uns kommen und soweit sie von Ihrer Mutter erfahren hat, ohne Medikamente und Nebenwirkungen. Weil davon hat sie echt genug, da sie sich nicht sicher ist, ob diese ständigen Magen-Darm-Probleme bei Michael nicht die Nebenwirkungen der Medikamente sein könnten.

Sign up for the full show at hippoed.com/PEDSRAPPOD. Andi Marmor, MD, and Lisa Patel, MD review the cutaneous and systemic manifestations of HSV1, when testing is indicated, potential co-infections, and discuss management strategies depending on presentation. Transmission of HSV-1 occurs when someone with no prior infection comes in contact with herpetic lesions, mucosal secretions, or skin lesions that contain HSV-1. Transmission can occur when infected body secretions come into contact with a break in the skin.  In the acute phase of the infection, the herpes virus replicates at the site of contact. From there, the virus enters the sensory nerve and travels to the ganglion. Typically it establishes latency in the trigeminal nerve ganglion (or sacral ganglion depending on the initial site of infection) and it can then reactivate in any of the branches of that nerve throughout life. HSV PCR and viral culture are the two tests used to confirm the diagnosis of  HSV. A viral culture can distinguish between HSV-1 and HSV-2. HSV PCR is typically faster and more sensitive than a viral culture.  Serologic testing has a limited role in acute infection but can be helpful in establishing prior infection in someone who is, for example, undergoing an organ transplant where antiviral prophylaxis might be needed.  Primary HSV-1 oral infection usually presents as gingivostomatitis in children. High fevers and malaise are the typical prodromal symptoms which are then followed by the development of painful vesicular lesions. Lesions can affect the entire gingiva and also often involves the buccal mucosa, tongue, and the floor of the mouth. There may also be some sores on the outside of the mouth and around the lips. In coxsackievirus, the majority of the lesions are in the posterior oropharynx whereas with HSV gingivostomatitis, the majority are in the anterior mouth. The distribution of the lesions can help distinguish between the two viruses.  Children with gingivostomatitis may require hospitalization for pain control and/or dehydration.  For pain management, Andi advises using around the clock NSAIDs and does not recommend using Magic mouthwash. Magic mouthwash is typically a 1:1:1: ratio combination of viscous lidocaine, diphenhydramine, magnesium hydroxide (or aluminum hydroxide) mixed with a flavored syrup. Andi does not recommend because 1) viscous lidocaine is well absorbed through the oral mucosa and can quickly reach a toxic level in young kids and 2) there is not much evidence showing that improves pain control or that helps kids hydrate.  Honey was shown in a recent randomized control trial to both improve pain control and less than the time to healing.  Acyclovir, in addition to supportive care measures, is recommended in children with severe symptoms and who present within 72-96 hours of disease onset. A Cochrane review from 2008 showed that it decreased the time to healing and lessened the amount of pain medicine needed. The typical dosing is 15 mg/kg by mouth (maximum single dose 200 mg) five times per day. Herpetic whitlow is an infection of the soft tissue of the finger caused by HSV. It is usually localized to the nailfold. These lesions are initially clear-yellow vesicles that then coalesce into a larger blister. Herpetic whitlow is often confused with a bacterial infection like paronychia or a pulp abscess. Unlike a paronychia, the area filled with pus is not tense in the setting of herpetic whitlow. Treatment in most cases is doing nothing. The time that this takes to resolve is two to three weeks. Consider treatment with acyclovir if it is on multiple digits, if the child is systemically ill, or if there is concern for a more widespread infection. Herpes gladiatorum is a skin infection that classically occurs on the face, neck, and arms of wrestlers. Eczema herpeticum is a widespread HSV infection of the skin in a patient with pre-existing atopic dermatitis. Vesicles and characteristic "punched-out" lesions with hemorrhagic crust appear on areas of pre-existing skin disease.  Complications of eczema herpeticum include a superimposed bacterial infection, particularly with Staph. Because of the potential seriousness of this condition, treatment with systemic acyclovir is recommended oftentimes with an anti-staphylococcus medication in addition.  The continued use of topical corticosteroid for the treatment of the underlying eczema is somewhat controversial but a recent paper in Pediatric Dermatology showed that receipt of topical steroids did not prolong hospitalization.  The most common secondary reactivation is recurrent herpes labialis or cold sores of the lip - that is a recurrence of HSV that has been lying dormant in the trigeminal ganglion. Triggers for recurrence include immunodeficiency, stress, exposure to sunlight, and fevers.  The lesions are typically present along the vermilion border but they can also be present on the oral mucosa. Most patients have prodromal symptoms including pain, burning, or tingling,  Topical treatments, such as Penciclovir, have shown some benefits. However, given the need for frequent application, some people advocate for the use of oral acyclovir. Oral therapy has been shown to shorten the course of infection when taken during the prodromal period.  Chronic suppressive therapy is recommended if recurrences are happening four or more times a year and there is no predictable prodrome.  Herpes keratitis is a corneal infection that is caused by reactivation of herpes virus that has been latent in the trigeminal ganglion. It tends to present as a unilateral, uncomfortable tearing eye with redness and irritation.  On fluorescein exam, you will see dendritic lesions. Patients should be referred to Ophthalmology for a slit lamp exam and for monitoring the integrity of the cornea.  Herpes virus can cause peripheral facial nerve palsy. In a peripheral seventh nerve palsy, there is weakness affecting the mouth, eye and forehead. It is the involvement of the forehead musculature that distinguishes it from a central lesion. Patients with a peripheral facial nerve palsy will have weakness raising the eyebrow and wrinkling the forehead. Neonatal HSV is classified into three categories: localized skin, eye and mouth (SEM); CNS and disseminated disease.  SEM disease is associated with typical herpes ulcers on the face or on the mucous membranes seizures and encephalopathy. Manifestations of neonatal HSV CNS disease include seizures and encephalopathy Disseminated HSV has a sepsis-like presentation, involving multiple organs. These neonates are critically ill.  Women with a primary genital HSV infection acquired near the time of delivery have the highest risk for transmission.  HSV encephalitis is mainly caused by HSV-1, whereas meningitis is more often caused by HSV-2

The primary symptoms of herpes simplex are burning and stinging. Neuralgia may precede or accompany attacks. The lesions consist of small, grouped vesicles on an erythematous base that can occur anywhere. Most cases occur on the patient's vermillion lip border, the penile shaft, labia, perianal skin, and the rear end. The regional lymph nodes may be swollen and tender. The lesions usually crust and heal in one week. Immunosuppressed patients may also present with verrucous or nodular herpes lesions at the aforementioned sites of involvement. Herpes simplex lesions must be distinguished from chancroid, syphilis, pyoderma, and trauma. Direct fluorescent antibody slide tests offer a rapid means of diagnosis. The malady can be treated with acyclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir. Only the first drug is available for intravenous administration. For the initial clinical episode of herpes simplex, the patient is provided with acyclovir (400 mg orally, five times a day), valacyclovir (1000 mg orally twice every day), and famciclovir (250 mg orally three times every day). The duration of treatment is for seven to ten days typically. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Andi Marmor, MD and Lisa Patel, MD review the cutaneous and systemic manifestations of HSV1, when testing is indicated, potential co-infections, and discuss management strategies depending on presentation. For more incredible segments like this, subscribe to PC:RAP today. You'll never miss a moment of the program and earn 42 hours of CME per year.  Transmission of HSV-1 occurs when someone with no prior infection comes in contact with herpetic lesions, mucosal secretions, or skin lesions that contain HSV-1. Transmission can occur when infected body secretions come into contact with a break in the skin.  In the acute phase of the infection, the herpes virus replicates at the site of contact. From there, the virus enters the sensory nerve and travels to the ganglion. Typically it establishes latency in the trigeminal nerve ganglion (or sacral ganglion depending on the initial site of infection) and it can then reactivate in any of the branches of that nerve throughout life. HSV PCR and viral culture are the two tests used to confirm the diagnosis of  HSV. A viral culture can distinguish between HSV-1 and HSV-2. HSV PCR is typically faster and more sensitive than a viral culture.  Serologic testing has a limited role in acute infection but can be helpful in establishing prior infection in someone who is, for example, undergoing an organ transplant where antiviral prophylaxis might be needed.  Primary HSV-1 oral infection usually presents as gingivostomatitis in children.High fevers and malaise are the typical prodromal symptoms which are then followed by the development of painful vesicular lesions. Lesions can affect the entire gingiva and also often involves the buccal mucosa, tongue, and the floor of the mouth. There may also be some sores on the outside of the mouth and around the lips. In coxsackievirus, the majority of the lesions are in the posterior oropharynx whereas with HSV gingivostomatitis, the majority are in the anterior mouth. The distribution of the lesions can help distinguish between the two viruses.  Children with gingivostomatitis may require hospitalization for pain control and/or dehydration.  For pain management, Andi advises using around the clock NSAIDs and does not recommend using Magic mouthwash. Magic mouthwash is typically a 1:1:1: ratio combination of viscous lidocaine, diphenhydramine, magnesium hydroxide (or aluminum hydroxide) mixed with a flavored syrup. Andi does not recommend because 1) viscous lidocaine is well absorbed through the oral mucosa and can quickly reach a toxic level in young kids and 2) there is not much evidence showing that improves pain control or that helps kids hydrate.  Honey was shown in a recent randomized control trial to both improve pain control and less than the time to healing.  Acyclovir, in addition to supportive care measures, is recommended in children with severe symptoms and who present within 72-96 hours of disease onset. A Cochrane review from 2008 showed that it decreased the time to healing and lessened the amount of pain medicine needed. The typical dosing is 15 mg/kg by mouth (maximum single dose 200 mg) five times per day. Herpetic whitlow (see image below, photo credit: Solomon Behar)  is an infection of the soft tissue of the finger caused by HSV. It is usually localized to the nailfold. These lesions are initially clear-yellow vesicles that then coalesce into a larger blister. Herpetic whitlow  is often confused with a bacterial infection like paronychia or a pulp abscess.  Unlike a paronychia, the area filled with pus is not tense in the setting of herpetic whitlow. Treatment in most cases is doing nothing. The time that this takes to resolve is two to three weeks. Consider treatment with acyclovir if it is on multiple digits, if the child is systemically ill, or if there is concern for a more widespread infection.
