Our pilot data suggest that cigarette smoke or nicotine inhalation inhibits the expression of ACE2/AT2R in multiple organs including the brain, heart and lungs, thus disrupting the balance within the RAS.

So if COVID 19 binds to ACE2 receptors and nicotine inhibits ACE2 expression, then...?

***While you have been incarcerated in your homes, the federal government has flown in over 1000 special refugees from Afghanistan and distributed them around the US in a 4 week period from mid March to mid April.***

TN seems really popular.

It is really low.

Perhaps it’s the probiotic.

I have very low LDH so dont know if all those probiotics are causing an issue with something

I have never been allergic to anything.
I am just going to quit taking both to see if things clear up.

It looks like an Intertrigo rash..so going to try to cure on my own but may have to do telemedicine next week.

Just so bizarre to all of a sudden be having issues after taking Lauricidan.

Lol, no just vape. As a smoker, I’ll be everyone’s guinea pig. :-)

I’m old school lol. I heard those vape cigs have a terrific amount of nicotine in them too.

I’m just messin’ around, I can’t even mess with that bc two heart attacks.

Plus the last time I smoked a cigar, which was probably 4-5 years ago, that thing made my head spin, and then I puked. Didn’t inhale any of it either, but it still got me sick.

Thanks. There are going to be many researchers scratching their heads on this one. Not sure if mouse models are going to recapitulate humans.

Good! It’s a horrible habit I’ve tried to kick numerous times. But I’m a stress smoker, so I’m currently having no luck at all.

Probably best to wash out first and see if there is improvement. I checked medium chain triglyceride (MCT) for metabolic disorders and only found a contraindication for MCADH deficiency. I would go for the telemedicine while and after the washout period. Not medical advice, just what I would do.

I disagree. They've run out of plastic jugs in the sizes used in grocery stores. The restaurant and institutional market for milk uses different sizes of containers than grocery stores. See:

I think I have a recipe for the cottage cheese. I had searched for weird recipes for powdered milk back in January just in case. I think there’s one for butter, too, but I’m good on butter and margarine for the time being.

Here’s a paneer cheese recipe and guessing it would also work for cottage cheese - http://tacticalintelligence.net/blog/how-to-make-cheese-from-powdered-milk.htm

Just talked to a friend who’s kiddo is in quarantine because someone in his military unit has CV. He’s fine but, of course, bored. This is certainly doing a job on our military.

I’m hoping Dicks doesn’t survive this. They are anti 2A.
