@ichudov Colitis is a part of both stress or CoV issues and is complex to resolve.
I have had to do that for myself so I have a lot of info, but mainstream med won't have them. I had to figure it out for myself.

I can share links- chronic diarrhea is more than a 280ch topic.
@ichudov TRP channel activators have to be avoided strictly. Turmeric, ginger, hot or black pepper, cinnamon, horseradish, nutmeg, cloves, mint maybe, CBD drops may be a trigger,
Too hot or too cold, & pressure changes

@ichudov Resistant starches & mucilaginous foods help the microbiome and protective biofilm layer.
Adequate zinc is also needed for microbiome health.

In our project, we want to find a definitive cure for #IBD 🏥 using an innovative strategy🧬🔬 We explain this in our latest infographic and in this tweetorial. Get on board! 👇🏻 Image
We are researching #IBD because it affects millions of people worldwide, especially young adults 👦🏻👧🏻 Moreover, we target two of the most frequent IBD subtypes: #Crohns disease and ulcerative #colitis 👇🏻
We focus on the main issue of #IBD: inflammation 🔥 In this condition, the patient’s immune system attacks their #intestine as if it were an external agent. Image

My first piece on #multiomics #IBD as part of my thesis is out as a preprint!

I'll summarize it on this thread

First, we check how the many parameters of RGCCA #rstats influence and work in their original dataset. We check that different designs select different variables, we discard the superblock design.

Then we look our own dataset of #IBD samples undergoing a treatment and some controls. We use a method to find good models of the data. The method is available as #rstats package, with its own #pkgdown website llrs.github.io/inteRmodel/

Virophages are small #viruses w/ double-stranded DNA genomes that replicate along with giant viruses + co-infect eukaryotic cells 👉@DaviPaez @kyrpides + team just published this study which increased the number of known virophage genomes by 10-fold!: microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… ImageImage
2/ It’s the first study to identify HQ virophage genomes in diverse habitats including #plant-associated, thermal #springs, deep-subsurface and #cow rumen...
3/ AND...it’s also the first study ever to identify virophages in human #gut samples! 👉 4/5 human-associated HQ virophage genomes were identified in #fecal samples recovered from individuals with a rural lifestyle, the other was found in a patient w/ ulcerative #colitis Image

The UCP does NOT understand how devastating removing brand name biologics from the list of covered drugs could be. Let me explain..edmonton.citynews.ca/2019/11/18/cro…
Biological drugs are very expensive. They are genetically engineered antibodies that target specific molecules in our bodies that contribute to a disease process (like cancer, inflammation). They do not always just block the molecule from engaging it’s receptor.
Sometimes they have other actions (like inducing apoptosis/cell death) or activating receptors, or signaling other cells to eat the molecule/cell that the antibody binds to. That means that depending on how the antibody was originally designed, the therapeutic effect is different

Remarkable @bmj_latest @BMJCaseReports report documenting the extreme lengths a bedbound patient went through to get a diagnosis of #POTS, #MCAS, #SIBO and #tachycardia

2. After suffering for 16 years, seeing 19 docs with repeated misdiagnosis:

Her cardiologist couldnt diagnose #POTS

Her gastroenterologist couldnt diagnose #SIBO

Her immunologist couldnt diagnose #MCAS

Her neurologist referred her to a #psychiatrist!

3. Patient: the "neurologist was out of ideas and suggested I get a psych evaluation, which I declined"

the patient <referred herself> to @MayoClinic
