Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) test

depends on the tumor marker test. For CEA, under 5 is normal. For CA-15, I think under 20 is normal.

I've been taking the combo for 6 years and added BAT 4 years ago. 1. Nutraceutical Combination: EGCG, Sulforaphane, Curcumin, Pomegranate Juice, and Lycopene Individual Contributions: • EGCG (from green tea/matcha): Doses of 400–800 mg/day have been shown to modestly reduce PSA levels and slow tumor

Does anyone has experience with green tea extract capsules instead of matcha powder? Since the Mucuna capsules (I use 40% L-Dopa) are already very expensive and matcha powder is even more expensive, I would like to try green tea extract capsules. I have found 3 products from a supplier I trust 1.

Hello everyone, Last Sunday I joined the Zoom call and shared my experience using Mucuna, the issues I've had with the Barlowe's Mucuna, and my own Mucuna mix. I had been taking Barlowe's 40% brown mucuna since late 2020, I started with green tea extract ([i]EGCG from Life Extension x2 caps[/i])

My right middle finger knuckle is swollen, red, sometimes itchy and aches a lot. I’ve had this for 5 days now and doesn’t seem to be going away or going down. I cannot remember hitting it or hurting it any way which makes it more confusing. The skin around the Knuckle feels tight when I bend it but

I want everyone to have the choice of trying anything they like - so long as they are fully informed and all information is readily accessible. Trouble is, a lot of information is hard to access for many reasons including language, paywalls, time, and having the required time and skills to get to the

I know that some patients take these supplements in spite of clinical data showing no effect for prostate cancer. I updated the article on curcumin with health warnings on hepatotoxicity. PLEASE, if you are taking either or both as supplements, at least tell your oncologist, and get liver enzyme tests

Hi folks 💛 I recently followed some bad advice and put warmed, diluted tea tree oil in my slightly clogged, itchy ear not realising that Tea Tree can be Ototoxic to the Cochlear. I diluted 3 drops of Tea Tree oil in 30ml of Olive oil and put 0.5 ml in my ear. I let it sit there for around 10 minutes

This is a long post, but I tried to be concise! Hey after all you asked for it! :-P Let’s summarize where I come from before I dive into what I am doing for my health :-) First, I must say that I am fully in favor of the standard of care (SOC). Everything I do outside of SOC is because there's no proven

So in 2011 I started getting weird scabs on my face with stretchy plugs underneath once removed the spot would typically close and more would appear in or near the same area. I have read many posts about morgellons and auto immune diseases that could cause this but the problem for me was never identified

This is wiping me out. Honestly. It tends to start at about 5 pm and lasts for about 2/3 hours. I used to take Whey protein to counter it but this appears to not hit the spot. I’m utterly exhausted when this phenomenon strikes and am wondering if anyone has any ideas? I take B1 daily (Superior Source

I found something that works! I used a good quality tea tree oil (Do Terra metaluca) and applied it directly onto the sores before bed. Most were gone in the morning. Hope this helps someone. Much love ladies. ❤️

Been on Levothyroxine 30 years all good. Howver read recently in What Doctors Don’t Tell you. That some times drug over prescribed and causes bone loss. Obviously at 68 am anxious to avoid this. Is there anyway I can be tested ie full profile of gland. ?Would I have to stop taking thyroxine to,get

Non-Thyroidal Illness Syndrome has long been somewhat mysterious. Despite low T3 levels, actually giving the patient T3 has not been widely seen as beneficial. It has also long been seen that hypothyroidism can (and does) cause loss of muscle mass. Though sometimes this has not been obvious as

One of the reasons silychristin is important is that it is a constituent of Milk Thistle - it is a flavonoid abundant in milk thistle fruits, known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, particularly in conditions like hepatitis C infection and chronic liver disease. There is concern over

So I wonder, as my ferritin levels have been dropping over the past year, if it’s weird to be excited that my ferritin levels have dropped to 14. Why excited? Well, I finally have a doctor who seems open to an iron infusion, so maybe I will actually get what I need now…. Still, it feels wrong to be excited

As an AF member of this forum my observations as a physician ( not a cardiologist , but an M. D. Board certified in Clinical Immunology) is there are many members who have been or are experiencing AF recurrences after interventions ( cardiac ablations, cardioversions, medications and mini maze surgery

Hi all, My Endocrinologist wants me to switch from T3 only, which I have been taking for several years due to intolerance to Eltroxin, to Compounded Natural Dessicated Thyroid. He said to start with 1/4 grain and work up, and to stop the T3 whilst doing so. I'm just worried as I'm very sensitive

I persauded my endo to get my levo increased by 25mcg and I agreed to reduce my T3 by 12.5mcg. I have already previously reduced my 3 by 12.5mcg. I was on 50mcg and 75 mcg levo until my last blood when I was advised here to reduce T3. I have been fasting for Ramadan which I was told reduces conversion
