Hello again, Rachel, I have one question about the D-mannose -- I'm wondering if your friend takes it as a powder dissolved in water/liquid or as a whole capsule? Just wondering if the powder form might be more effective, or maybe there's no difference? You’re welcome, Moonstone. :D My friend takes...

Hi Rachel, I greatly appreciate your reply. There seems to be something going on beyond a urinary tract infection, which she's been treated for a few times with antibiotics; that hasn't produced significant improvement in her urinary issues. The issues occur both at night and during the day, but at...

Hello, I'm new here and am writing in regard to my mother. Have been working through the Bredesen protocol with a trained doctor for the past year but can't seem to solve the problem of urinary urgency and frequency disrupting sleep (up 3-4 times a night to go to the bathroom, and then can't go bac...

I am adopted. I found my birth mother 4 years ago. She is a recovering addict.... This morning the Visiting Nurse supervisor showed up at her doorstep telling her she is showing early signs of dementia or Alzheimer's and that she needs to follow up with a neurologist. He is planning to use her mult...

Hi there. 42 and 4/4 here too. I found a lifestyle medicine practitioner in my area that takes insurance. It’s been hard for me to on-ramp the changes recommended here, but I keep at it. I hope to have hope someday too. In the meantime, I understand. I have 3 kids, and I fast forward to what I’m go...

Hello, I am new to the forum and not super well versed in the genetic data side of things. I have my raw data from 23andMe but I'm uncertain of which SNPs to look at and then why polymorphisms confirm ApoE4 status? I tried looking around the forum a bit before posting but didn't see anything obviou...

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum but have been aware of the ApoE status issue for a while. Just checking, from reading the introductory primer, I searched my 23andme raw data (which I had done about 6 years ago) for the two variants and got this: rs7412 19 45412079 CC and rs429358 19 45411941 CT ...

Hi all, I’ve been lurking here for a while, but finally decided to post... It turns out I have 1 copy of APOE4. I ran my raw data through promethease and I’m a 3/4 (while my brother, who has always been the lucky one, is a 2/3). I’ve been obsessed with looking at different SNPs ever since (and appe...

I've been plowing through all the old posts on this site and really enjoying it. It answers a lot of questions I've had about the topics everybody is discussing. On one it mentioned that we should come here and introduce ourselves so I will. I spent most of my working life in agribusiness. Although...
