Reply to comment by BubzerBlue in Alleviation of Asthma Symptoms After Ketogenic Diet: A Case Report - Over the four months on the ketogenic diet, the patient reported losing 20 kg of weight, reduction in blood pressure, and complete alleviation of asthma symptoms. by Meatrition
i agree it’s likely reductionist to attribute any effects of drastic change in diet to only the ketonic aspect

It's affirming in the mental health sense rather than the strictly biological

Interesting. Have you done this yourself?

It has never been withdrawn from the United States. I have been taking it for 23 years. That liver problem was way over blown.

Haven’t heard that drug name in years !

That was something that was know for decades. They don't know exactly what role serotonin plays in depression. Within the last few months they just published a paper about how they have been able to for the first time have been able to measure serotonin in the human brain. It even showed that people who were depressed showed lower levels of serotonin. This will bring new research to find exactly the role of serotonin plays in depression and hopefully develop more effective medications. That study you referred to also left out the fact there are other neurotransmitters involved including norepinephrine and dopamine. Ruoxinlin works on all 3 neurotransmitters. The only medication to do this so far has been nefazodone (weak SNDRI due to low effect on dopamine).

Interesting understanding of “gender-affirming”, I had to read twice to understand that scientists are considering “affirming” to transition from the birth gender.

I thought there was a big meta study recently disproving the seretonin chemical connection to depression?

It is referenced in this article as Toludesvenlafaxine. This was just published. It has been available in China since last November and is expected to be available in the U.S. in 2024. It will be the first full SNDRI available on the market.

Reply to comment by memorialmonorail in Ability to take a quick walk to a food retail store is a factor in long-term weight loss after bariatric surgery, research suggests, but simply living close to a food store isn’t an automatic key to sustained weight-loss – especially a market that carries a low selection of mostly convenience foods. by memorialmonorail
so being close to an am/pm makes you thin?
because the meth dealer is there.

Similar rocks on earth to what Perseverance is studying were run through similar test equipment to what Perseverance is using and the similar equipment couldn’t see life. (Perseverance will probably need Mars samples with more life to see life.)

Thank you so very much for this. Beyond the pure beauty of it, the “what happens?”, I had no idea about the medical application and now can reverse engineer my knowledge of that field a little.
Fascinating to see the intersection, and I am grateful for you all for taking the time to show me.
Stay safe all of you, just watched the fairly inaccurate Radioactive movie about M Curie and don’t want any of you sleeping with glowing heterocyclic vials on your pillows!

this is an incorrect understanding of this paper and of HRT. HRT does not flatten a chest.
