Mannose Binding Lectin
Attached is a link about the mannose binding lectin gene (MBL2) and its relationship with SARS and COVID. The article is loaded with references that go into greater depth. Very interesting. "In one study, people with the low-producing ‘TT’ genotype for rs1800450 were more seriously ill overall ...

Re: Oxalates, a potential problem for Keto, Paleo and vegan diets
Hi Susan, Interesting that some TLO folks think vitamin K2 may trigger oxalate dumping. I think I'll see what I can dig up on the subject. Thanks for the tips regarding the TLO facebook page. I'll definitely read the "units" and documents before asking a question. I'm looking forward to ex...

Re: Covid vaccine safety for 4/4’s?
Hi TheBrain, I watched the Simone Gold video, and I was taken aback by some of her unclaimed assertions (that it doesn't actually stop viral transmission (a moot point, neither does the Flu vaccine), masks are not necessary, the disease is mild). The research, development, and approval for the vario...

Re: Oxalates, a potential problem for Keto, Paleo and vegan diets
Hi Susan, Thank you so much for this timely post! I just made a brown lentil, carrot, spinach soup. The last time I made this soup (no spinach then) it was so good I stuffed myself. The next morning I was stiff as a board. I'll never forget that morning. I knew it was the oxalates in the lentils. I'...

Re: Female Chromosomes Offer Resilience to Alzheimer’s
I also have version 3 of 23andMe. Like you, I'm thinking of upgrading to version 5, but there's no telling if the common variant rs12845057 will be covered. If someone on this forum has version 5, please consider checking for rs12845057, Thanks.

Re: Female Chromosomes Offer Resilience to Alzheimer’s
Hi Circular, Thanks for forwarding what looks like good news for women and men associated with the X chromosome. I did a quick google search looking for protective variants and associated SNPs. Here's what I found: https://www.alzforum.org/news/research-news/does-second-x-chromosome-boost-womens-res...

Re: Celebration Thread! Homotaurine/Tramiprosate supplement
J11, I looked further down on their website and found additional information about their Homotaurine supplement: "Homotaurine, or 3-amino-1-propanesulfonic acid, is a natural-source organic compound found in certain seaweeds. Though chemically similar to taurine, with only one additional carbon...

Re: Celebration Thread! Homotaurine/Tramiprosate supplement
Hi J11, Thank you so much for posting the research on Homotaurine! I've been thinking about it for the last few days, and googling to find out whether it is synthetic or natural. I can't find very much. Supersmart Homotaurine does not list it's active ingredients nor provide testing results for heav...
