Pregnenolone, the raw material to progesterone, testosterone, cortisol and estrogen, is a “lymphosteroid”. A steroid produced by lymphocytes shown in vivo and in vitro models. Are we lacking the starting material to life? Very interesting in a world full of inflammation and

Is everyone fucking nuts? Did we actually believe that after decades and decades of studying the brain and coming up with next to zilch, that a handful of rich, arrogant midwits in Silicon Valley would come to a full understanding of consciousness and deliver to us artificial

One of the most unrecognized signs of depression is histamine overload, especially in women with estrogen dominance. Think: wired but tired, noise/light sensitivity, headaches, joint pain, night sweats. It often gets brushed off as "stress", but it’s really histamine driven brain

A major new review from Yale (Moen, Baker, Iwasaki, 2025) offers the most comprehensive picture yet of what SARS-CoV-2 does to the nervous system. The conclusion is stark: Long COVID is a chronic neuroimmune disorder affecting brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves.🧵

I am just a microscopist with social anxiety. But seeing #Covid impact on the brain through the lenses of the microscope has affected me. It’s hard not to feel for the millions sick everywhere. Below is a 2021 video about our research. Can we please keep talking about #LongCovid

every time you do a bicep curl 30% of your strength is leaking sideways and ends up in your leg. biomechanics researchers finally measured it only a couple of years back your muscles don't behave like you think. 1/

Years ago I found myself in an ER with severe lower limb pain and unexplained bleeding/burns My feet looked like I had walked over hot coals I was given pain medication but no diagnosis or treatment In fact, I was told I was “wasting a bed” I begged not to be discharged 🧵

women who had c-section have a 3mm thick web connecting the scar to their shoulder. surgeons at mount sinai tracked 247 women post-surgery. 73% developed shoulder pain 2-7 years later. same side as the incision. no injury. just physics. 1/

And #COVID can also damage the vision by crossing the blood-retinal barrier after systemic exposure. And don't forget the retina is part of the brain. #NeuroCovid More here: medicine.missouri.edu/news/covid-19-…

A common belief is that cognition arises from the brain. This paper suggests that cognition is a complex multiscale information processing distributed across every single cell in the body. 🧵1/10
