I suspect the Tat-like motif might be contributing to serum CD40 ligand elevation.

There are many actually ! Olive leaf extract is kind of strong and Dr.grouf/hachi recommended not to take straight for more than 7 days unless infected ...( full spectrum one is better for regular use I suppose ) , so presently am regular on pomegranate, papaya leaf rarely and E sometimes.. ..

Current strains are causing brain fog , headache and fatigue and overall weakness maybe more than previous ones ( personal experience) ...

very deep and excellently researched , as usual!

well i think D Alpha tocopherol (natural vitamin E) and also papaya leaf extract can be helpful in thrombocytopenia... i think i did some digging year back and found them to be useful.. pomegranate fruit, juice or extract are anyway there too (and i have added one a day since a month, or atleast couple of 250mg caps if fruit not available..

ā€œmy aim is to present the evidence which quite often is scant in number or hidden away on journal sites or even retracted if it doesnā€™t fit the political (or shareholder focused) narrative of the day.ā€

Which is why I try to read every one of your posts- no matter how dense the material is. You have a lovely writing style which is easy to follow- much appreciated! And your discoveries are always on target, youā€™ve been mentioning the HIV insert for ages now, and itā€™s only now I hear other voices agreeing and chiming in.

Thank you Charlotte :) Many of these pathologies when examined in isolation in one experiment are far from definitive as to the outcomes, but collectively and when applied to a large enough sample size you clearly see significant clinical results.

Despite these signals and many research papers large parts of the medical profession remain clueless as to why they are seeing what they are seeing and what to do about it?
