One doctor's treatment was to sit in the hot mineral springs for over an hour each day - raised his temperature and boosted his white blood cells. 20 minutes in a sauna later in the day. <BR/> Also, the book "how to raise a healthy child in spite of your doctor" has some good text regarding not supressing fevers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5491220859163652191.post-10598230211220627882009-01-22T21:20:00.000-08:002009-01-22T21:20:00.000-08:00i stumbled upon your post and got amazed about lev...i stumbled upon your post and got amazed about level of detail with which you managed to reinvent the wheel of l-deprenyl function in autism/schizophrenia (it has effect on NO , which was for long time unknown as it's main function was believed to be MAOi - altrough it didn't explained why it has neuroprotective and immunostimulant properties which other MAOi's didn't had :)<BR/><BR/>congrats!curioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12239217480104895956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5491220859163652191.post-46885967520951064802009-01-14T15:56:00.000-08:002009-01-14T15:56:00.000-08:00Message to anon.I sent an email but have received ...Message to anon.<BR/><BR/>I sent an email but have received no reply.

Everything...I am not sure I understand your point. Everything that is important in physiology has to be under feedback control. We are no where close to understanding that in anywhere near enough detail to model it, let alone artificially intervene. If the signaling molecules that are the mediators of that feedback control are perturbed outside of a physiologic range, then the proper feedback control cannot be achieved. <BR/><BR/>Physiology will try to compensate, but won't be able to because the compensatory pathways are what are affected. That is what is going on in disorders associated with low nitric oxide. NO is the signaling molecule that does the feedback control. With a basal NO level outside the physiologic range, physiology can't function properly. <BR/><BR/>Many parts of physiology are features in the short term and bugs in the long term. Anaphylaxis is a feature, if you have bacterial lipopolysaccharide in your blood stream, your body will invoke an extreme physiological reaction that may kill you. Evolution has configured the immune system to minimize the sum of deaths from infection and from anaphylaxis. If the immune system were "weaker" such that there were fewer deaths from anaphylaxis, there would be more deaths from infection. <BR/><BR/>Invoking low NO under conditions of stress is like that too, a feature in the short term, a bug in the long term.daedalus2uhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10416564922288784455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5491220859163652191.post-57612371028713573702008-01-02T15:20:00.000-08:002008-01-02T15:20:00.000-08:00Improvement to these conditions is very subjective...Improvement to these conditions is very subjective. There is no doubt in my mind that the state of the subject can lead to improvements. For example, if an Autistic person is angry then they are more coherent and outspoken. Similarly, with medications there can be some mild improvements. There are metabolic pathways that may kick in when small levels of chemicals are present (the chemical context is changed) which may temporarily alleviate a condition (almost coincidentally). I am a believer that more permanent cures can be achieved with a chemical model. Surely we are advancing in this area in terms of biochemical control of bacteria by in silico means to guide successful experiments. Once some of the chemicals involved in autistic behaviour are more clearly identified, certain behaviours or obsessions in the repertoire of an autistic person may be ameliorated with the drug. It is possible that a small improvement induced by a drug may have a big effect because mental processes are very non-linear. It is possible I expect that the brain just needs a small push to readjust itself and triumph over adversity. It is also possible that continued use of the drug may help even more and that the fixing could be semi-permanent. Imagine a type of Nash equilibrium and helping everyone to move somewhere better by means of the drug. The drug is then removed and the cure is "permanent"RepliesToQuestionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00684930110240023501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5491220859163652191.post-28700136666021874452008-01-02T15:14:00.000-08:002008-01-02T15:14:00.000-08:00testtestRepliesToQuestionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00684930110240023501noreply@blogger.com
