An inflammatory PUFA metabolite drives liver fibrosis (cirrhosis) by poisoning mitochondria
Ray wrote extensively about the toxicity of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) , particularly their propensity to undergo lipid peroxidation…
Metabolic (OXPHOS) speed/rate, not ATP levels, determines health (and keeps cancer in check)
Mainstream “mitochondrial medicine” is almost exclusively obsessed with ATP levels. The assumption is that mitochondria are important only…
Even mild inhibition of oxidative metabolism may cause szhizophrenia, naicinamide reverses it
An excellent set of studies, demonstrating that another “mysterious” and “genetically-predisposed” condition can be caused entirely by…
“Gulf War Syndrome” likely curable; it is driven by metabolic dysfunction and inflammation, not neuron damage
Some good news just in for the holidays. For decades, military veterans with this conditions have been…
PRESS: The estrogen/progesterone ratio in menopause is LOW and it causes Alzheimer; STUDY: That ratio in menopause is HIGH, it causes AD by lowering OXPHOS, P4 may cure AD
I think at this point the verdict is clear – mainstream scientific press is beyond redemption. I…
Psoriasis as a metabolic conditions, vitamin B2 (riboflavin) may prevent/treat it
Yet another condition of “mysterious” origin turns out to be nothing but energetic deficiency in disguise. Namely,…
The origins of sleep may be metabolic – to reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS), driven by fat oxidation
A fascinating study that again highlights the central role metabolism plays in activities medicine considers weakly linked…
Anti-depressant drugs (SSRI) cause heart defects/disease by inhibiting oxidative metabolism
I am amazed by the number of already published studies that openly admit that SSRI drugs have…
Low OXPHOS is a biomarker and likely cause of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
The evidence that IBD conditions such as Crohn’s Disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are of mitochondrial…
Mitochondrial dysfunction prevents apoptosis and drives inflammation
Yet another study, which demonstrates the inseparable link between metabolism and “structural” problems such as cellular integrity…
