⁠ My functional medicine doctor did follow up lab work bc I had had covid (bad cold in lungs, unvaccinated, recovered over time). My labs revealed low hemoglobin iron level and high levels of prothrombin fragments 1.2. He said both low iron and high prothrombin fragments 1.2 were from the spike protein from having covid or taking vaccine or being around someone who had covid or next to someone who had vaccine recently (within a week of jab). Doctor me to get air purifier in my bedroom and do deep 10 breathing exercises every am and on. He put me on a chelated iron supplement 18mg per day, and Nattokinase 100mg to break down the microclots from having been exposed to covid spike protein. I feel great now, but still on iron supplement and nattokinase for past 3 months until labs are normal. I love the air purifier in my bedroom and sleep better, still doing breathing exercises 2x/day.

The zeolite may have also helped because I started taking that soon after taking the ivermectin. It clears up the sores within hours.

@snowbunny8189 Hi! Unvaxed from Romania. In feb 2020 I got very sick with something like viral infection mixed with asthma attack like simptoms. From the first moment my immune system got crazy in contact with sars cov. I was lucky that the pandemic rules where not in place and they didn't killed me in hospital. I got some IV in ER with Ketotifen (mast cell stabiliser) wich helped a lot. I needed 3 days to recover but after I had bad autoimmunity, long covid

[@gabigabriela2802]

@Merogenomics Ivermectin helped me, but my long cov syndrome didn't get better until the (auto) antibodies count get lower. I think I developed some autoimmunity due to molecular mimicry... Going grain free, seed oil free, keto and fasting helped me to restore my immune system. After 4 long yares I m 80% recovered. Still got some neuropathy simptoms, strange body pain if I overdue. Shedding from people @ trigger my immune system, I think. Can you please make a video on methylene blue? Thank you!

[@Slowleek]

Mast cells are heavily involved in the covid virus and mcas is common in long covid. Mast cells can sequestor iron. Ferritin is falsely elevated by inflammation and mast cells are also associated with inflammation. This is why mast cell stabilzers are effective in treating long covid. Iron deficiency is associated with the development of allergic disease. Vitamin C inhibits hepcidin. That's why you should take vitamin C with your iron pills.

Physically, I am thriving, but mentally I worry a lot. Maybe a bit too much like dr. Geert van den Bossche. Data from around the world from offices of national statistics give a worrisome picture of no decline in deathrates.

I hope you continue to thrive mentally and physically and keep making these great videos. Thank you!

[@drivethrupoet]

I have been waiting for this to be discussed. I have always been anemic but there a spectrum and I remained below normal but not dangerously so. This mostly due to my menustrstion. So, the flu shot always makes me sick with the flu. I stopped getting them and didn't get the flu anymore. Then I had to get the c v and after 2nd dose I was as sick abiut a week. 3 months later I did contract the virus along with my teenager, he was sick for 3 days, I was sick for 5 weeks 2021. In 2022 I was so worn down, I couldn't make it up and down the stairs without a break. I went to the clinic they still were essentially treating people in their cars. After not testing positive for any viruses, I begged them to not walk away. Luckily the nurse got a draw for a blood panel. 2 hours later the doc called and said go to the ER now. My level was a few more days away from organs shutting down. A 7.1, and 7.0 is when a doc is required to give blood transfusion. I got a transfusion that night and then saw a specialist and I had small RBC and low count.I got a transfusion that night and then soon after I had 2 rounds of 10 visit IV ferritin and something else. The nurses in the center commented on how many women were coming in for same treatment. I'm just lately feeling better, back to how I remember before cov. It was very scary because in the beginning you just have to wait and see if it's something like bone cancer, but it seems I do not.

[@tracysmith-yv5lt]

Long covid since 2020, cancer from spike 2022, not vaxxed. What helped me: Inuspheresis, Omega 3(was deficient), Ivermectin, Baicalin is important, liposomal Quercetin, high dose Vitamin c= 60g turns to H2O2, Rizinus oil, coriander extract, reduce heavy metals, dandelion extract. I am quite well now and cancer free🎉

[@1dayfree]

I really believe that we are getting oxidative stress from the emf that the vaxxed are giving off due to the graphene. They are building an Internet of people, rather than things. 6g is using people's cells as antenna ( look up the papers) so we are getting zapped like standing next to an electrical substation. We need mega dose liposomal vit c to catch the free radicals produced by the electrons getting stolen. Vit c donates an electron and stabalises our cells. It's also key in reducing ferritin to the usable form, hence ferritin levels will be high but iron low. That's a big list you have there! Well done in healing yourself. I'm trying to do the same. Not vaeed either but health has been affected by long term exposure to oxidising chemicals in the air pumping into my house.Ive developed emf sensitivity due to this and get head zaps when around big crowds when shopping...

And how were you "infected" per chance?

[@garnerblair5179]

Bifidobacterium help with iron absorption. They're also wiped out during covid/vaccination. The infection/inflammation of spike protein then continue to drive hepcidin levels . People also supplement heavily with zinc during respiratory season without copper and this creates a copper deficiency...the iron transporter .

[@lizkeith1356]

please consider the carnivore diet. although some carnivores could be lacking copper. a lot of meat = a lot of zinc. last i knew, higher zinc can = lower copper.

[@BrandonGreenShow]

@lizkeith1356 can't. I got PKU. But naturally, meats with high copper have high zinc also to counteract. I think oysters are a bit of an exception with a higher zinc ratio. Hence the aphrodisiac so you can grow a big juicy mongrel. I've also worked out that pumping like 3000mg+ per day will give you a decent sized sausage too.

Iron deficiency can be a significant concern in individuals experiencing long COVID, as fatigue and weakness are common symptoms of both conditions. It may also be exacerbated by reduced nutrient absorption or changes in dietary habits during illness.Furthermore, inadequate iron levels can contribute to a cycle of persistent lethargy, making it even more challenging for individuals to engage in daily activities or recover fully. The interplay between iron deficiency and long COVID symptoms underscores the need for a comprehensive approach to management.

[@il3mendo]

High ferritin is also associated anemia of chronic disease, ferritin is also an inflammatory marker such crp. Ferritin also can create damage in the D2 receptor (Parkinson). Iron absortion can be be distrupted due to Chron s, Celiac and autoimmune gastritis. Iron and vitamin b12 are essential for Heme.

Vitamin C is needed to reduce ferretin into usable form. Try mega dosing liposomal vit c. I've got my energy back after 6 years in less than a week 🙂

[@AJWeaver.]

Have long followed and appreciated your work but this would be in polar opposite contrast to what got me healthy again. I was an unvaccinated, long Covid sufferer. It was excess iron, and more specifically not utilising iron that would be the issue. I would suggest listening to some of Morley Robbins conversations on anaemia and maybe reading Ray Peat on iron. Learn about utilising iron not supplementing it. The two sound similar but the subtle difference is massive in being healthy. Take my own personal experience on that, iron is necessary but it’s about copper for example as much as it is about iron, in a world and dietary system where iron is in abundance. Blood donors have lower disease risk for a reason….

[@CosmicJestar]

I'm not refuting anything else that you said but saying that blood donors have a lower risk: that might be just because, in general, blood donors are healthier individuals...?

[@garnerblair5179]

Too many talking about serum iron and not hepcidin and copper . Also that bifidobacterium are wiped out and immune system starts in the gut where bifidobacterium help handle iron/copper uptake

[@AJWeaver.]

@@CosmicJestarcorrect it could be any number of factors. I’m giving some anecdotal evidence on a very personal basis and what got me right. It’s just there to add to the discussion and I respect the point both ways. I’d never really comment on KZbin but there was enough danger for me seeing this to say be careful to anyone listening here. I love the guys work and have listened for a long time since I was very ill. This is just about the one that doesn’t fit for me. But it’s a much much longer answer. Generally speaking when I go the the blood donation most people do not look especially healthy (again anecdotal) in terms of appearance. Do some searches maybe and have a read about the pathogens of iron in things like cancer, even normal things like malaria. Copper would be more important, not in a supplement sense but in dietary. Again personal experience there but the research is out there, as always in a huge minefield of contrasting information. Which unless someone like me says hey by the way I can tell you the opposite in my case, it’s very hard to find something that works for people who don’t want to go near a doctor yet need help or a route to better outcomes. I’m just lucky I found a way in the end after a horrible experience

Hepcidin-ferroportin interaction controls systemic iron homeostasis. Hepcidin dysregulation after sars cov infection due to molecular mimicry. If cells are iron overload prior infection, due to hepcidin upregulations by inflammation results in feropoptosis. I personally think iron overload is more dangerous in infection and aftermath.

[@jonscott8586]

Adenosine Inosine ratio is influenced by hypoxia and in turn, influences hypoxia by feedback and changes vascular tone. Adenosine Deaminase is important. CD26 / Adenosine Deaminase Binding Protein is binding site for spike protein. CD26 is also known as an Angiotensin Converting Enzyme which influences vascular tone. Disrupted Adenosine Deaminase leads to SCID immune deficiency. Adenosine/Inosine balance also influences blood flow to the uterus which necessitates carefully controlled vascular damage which can otherwise result in excessive or reduced blood flow. In other words, the adenosine system is powerful enough to cause bleeding in the absence of injury or infection. Adenosine and Inosine differently affect adenosine receptors such as A2B which increases IL-6 via NF-kB and MAPK which synergistically affect humoral immunity by activating B-Cells. Adenosine imbalance can lead to T- Cell anergy, not least by promoting T-Reg Cells which can suppress other T-Cells. T-Reg also express CD39 and CD73 which further promote immunosuppressive activity of T-Regs. Adenosine shiftsT-Cell metabolism from glycolytic to oxidative phosphorylation. The former is essential for t-Cell activation.

[@jonscott8586]

Adenosine Inosine disturbance can affect the purine cycle affecting CNS ammonia levels. Ammonia also is associated with brain fog in Hepatic Encephalopathy.

I love dancing and when I can dance I know Im better, I might be 51 but still an old 90;s raver at heart. Honestly I've been through some weird "Long Covid" stuff, up and down journey for over 4 years now, but I know when I must rest, but the taurine deffo helps alot. and I upped my dosage after doing some additional reading. All I can say is if there is one thing you dig more into and thats Arsenic, even if you don't believe that weird things are happening in the air and sky, just reading into the effects of Arsenic on humans and pets is interesting. Not nice, but for me just bears some uncanny similarities to Long Covid. One thing I learnt in this whole 4+ years, ask questions and listen to what everyone has to say, then make judgements.

absolutely NO reason to go on and on about Iron, without recognizing Copper!!!

well, I guess it is a missed opportunity but hey, the gap has been filled in the comments at least ;)

I was also low in iron when I got out of ICU.

[@leslyrae6025]

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and thought provokong. I've done a lot of research, observation and speculation in this area with my mast cell clients. I think the iron dysregulation picture is much more complex than covered here and that copper amd other iron regulating cofactors are imperative to consider as well. I like to think in terms of dysregulated pathways instead of specific nutrient deficiencies.

[@garnerblair5179]

Iron overload is common. Supplementing with zinc is common also during respiratory infection season , this lowers copper .

[@seahorse2]

Thank you Dr. Raszak for extending topics, and for more information. I wish to add some questions about iron. I have 2 genes, H63D and C282Y which is hemochromatosis, or HFE. 'The C282Y mutation disrupts an intramolecular disulfide bond, and may interfere with β2-microglobulin binding.' Both my brother and I store ferritan, excess iron with 1 C282Y gene. My question is would the northern white population that has the celtic curse be protected by gene mutation from low iron levels.

[@Merogenomics]

yeah very interesting concept and I would now wonder the same

[@SyrRobert1]

Macrophages that take up the excess iron become classically (M1- like) activated, and cause a cascade of iron uptake. This leads to anemia of inflammation/anemia of chronic disease. The macrophages then secrete pro-inflammatory signals like IL1B. So both ends of the iron loading spectrum seem to be susceptible to C-19/ long c-19. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9788844/

@29:54 could this contribute and/or explain why fibromyalgia sufferer’s feel like they’re on day 2 after a way over done day at the gym? That was me several years ago. And it felt exactly like lactic acid overload. I didn’t cure it by taking iron though, only via coffee enemas and fasting, praying, nutrition, juicing. Thanks Dr!❤

For iron absorption you need B12 and these injections really provide me with a noticeable lift plus B complex. . I highly recommend it if you are vegan celiac or both !

[@catchycatch326]

[@matthewbeck5680]

You don't have your glasses on. Carnivor gives you heme iron which is easy to get and not dangerous to get to much of. Carnivor is also great for getting rid of brain fog. Plants are very good at binding minerals so humans can't get them but put it through an animal and they can access those minerals. Then we can get them in the proper form for our bodies use.

[@wally6193]

100%, plus cook some of your beef in a good quality cast iron frying pan. Haven't heard of anyone in the carnivore community ever talking about these problems, I wonder why. Don't know, but seems odd if it supposedly affects anyone/everyone regardless.

[@drivethrupoet]

@@wally6193 I remember when they told people in the late 90s, early 00s, that cast iron could poison us with overdose. My mom kept hers but stopped using it. And replaced it with non stick, of course. Kinda sounds orchestrated to me.

[@matthewbeck5680]

@@wally6193 I just dry fry chicken liver and put a little lemon and lots of fresh crushed garlic and it is so good. Organ meat has Heme Iron and if you are not eating it every day it is really good for you. It is much better than trying to get minerals from plants that have them bound in oxalate. You get very little iron from spinach because it is so high in oxalate.

100% and show us the virus isolation paper. He'll never be able in a million years to forward this paper.

[@Merogenomics]

@newoioi what is virus isolation to you mean and what is an acceptable criteria of proof to you? Would electron microscopy images suffice? Would genetic material suffice? Would virus protein content suffice? What proof exactly are you looking for beyond these elements? Just curious what is proof in this case

[@newoioi]

@@Merogenomics Actual isolation of the supposed ECV apart from everything else that is hypothetised to be pathogenic prior to cell culture. Sequencing what from the sample? How do you know what you have sequenced from CPE is a "virus".I'm sure that you are aware of a recent experiment conducted using the HEK cell line. The experiment was replicated at least 19 times that had no "viral" material added to the cell culture. After EM images were taken, ECVs that were similar in size and shape to polio, HIV and SARS-COV 2 were seen.

I’m not vegetarian and have had low ferritin off and on for yrs. Infusion an option for some but no consensus if better then food or supplement.
