On my most recent (as well as past) DUTCH (dry urine test for comprehensive hormones), my methylation activity based on estrogen phase 1 metabolism indicates low activity. The recent Methylmalonate (MMA) result on DUTCH was slightly above range, indicating Vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B6 markers,...

Re: study: Tb vaccine lowers AD risk.
The article cites this [paywalled] 2015 paper: Bacterial infection and Alzheimer's disease: a meta-analysis. which provides this finding in the abstract "We found over a five-fold increased occurrence of AD with Cpn [Chlamydophila pneumoniae] infection (OR: 5.66; 95% CI: 1.83-17.51). Many kind...

He referred us to a clinic in Grand Rapids (her neurologist is the only one in town) that I have set up an appointment with in early July. But t...
