Re: I'm here to help . . . and be helped

Welcome!
You mentioned having optimal estrogen and progesterone levels in your opening post. Do you mean that for men as well as women? What about testosterone levels?
Thanks.

Re: RE: Re: New article: A lymphatic waste-disposal system implicated in Alzheimer’s disease

Our yoga class always does an inversion at least once. She occasionally mentions “this pose is an inversion because your head is below your body”. I wonder if it has to do with the lymphatic system? I’ll try to remember to ask. It's also about blood flow to the brain, and I always thought it was in...

Re: Vitamin/ Supplement Combos for Ease of use & Lower Cost

As far as brands i use Douglas labs for most things. Their essential four pack covers a lot of the basic vitamins and with methylated B's. Theyre not cheap though.

Re: New article: A lymphatic waste-disposal system implicated in Alzheimer’s disease

Interesting take on the REM/non-REM transition - my understanding was that glymphatic clearance was a deep sleep activity, but it seems that REM sleep is perhaps an activator. What then of the effect of medications which inhibit REM sleep - hypnotics including the Z drugs, SSRIs. Thoughts? this pap...
