GLP-1 agonists such as semaglutide reduce inflammation by acting on GLP-1 receptors in immune cells, blood vessels, the liver and the brain, and by shrinking visceral fat. In the SELECT trial, semaglutide lowered hsCRP by 37.8% versus placebo, partly before any weight loss.
At a Glance Multiple clinical trials (including from Stanford University) show LDN can reduce fibromyalgia symptoms by approximately 30 percent. LDN works through a different mechanism than standard fibromyalgia drugs, it modulates glial cell activation and reduces neuroinflammation. Typical dosing starts at 0.5 mg and titrates up to 4.5 mg at bedtime over several weeks….
Most HRT side effects are mild and settle within one to three months. Serious risks such as blood clots, stroke and breast cancer depend mainly on the estrogen route, the progestogen used and starting within 10 years of menopause.
A complete guide to low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and photobiomodulation — how it works, conditions treated, evidence levels, costs, and how to find a provider.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is not FDA approved for TBI or concussion. Israeli trials reported cognitive gains after 40 sessions at 1.5 ATA, while US military sham-controlled trials found sham groups improved about as much.
Brain fog is a symptom, not a diagnosis: slowed thinking, poor focus and memory lapses that usually trace back to a testable cause such as thyroid disease, nutrient deficiency, sleep apnea, menopause, medications or Long COVID.
Everything you need to know about peptide therapy — BPC-157, thymosin alpha-1, CJC/ipamorelin, GHK-Cu, Semax, and more. How they work, what the evidence shows, protocols, costs, safety, and the regulatory landscape.
At a Glance Emerging clinical evidence suggests LDN can reduce thyroid antibodies (TPO and TgAb) in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. LDN works through immune modulation, not immunosuppression, it rebalances the immune response rather than shutting it down. Typical dosing follows the standard LDN protocol: start at 0.5 mg, titrate to 4.5 mg at bedtime. Antibody changes typically…
At a Glance Mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy (mHBOT) uses soft-shell, portable chambers that pressurize to 1.3 ATA – significantly lower than clinical HBOT chambers (1.5 to 3.0 ATA). Soft-shell chambers typically use room air or an oxygen concentrator (delivering 24% to 35% oxygen) rather than 100% medical-grade oxygen. They provide a measurable but modest increase…
Hormonal acne is driven by androgens such as DHT, often amplified by insulin and IGF-1, and shows as deep jawline and chin breakouts. Spironolactone, combined pills, clascoterone and isotretinoin target it, with spironolactone beating placebo in the SAFA trial (BMJ, 2023).
