I had regular diarrhea, heart issues, bone pain, ears popped and were closed, my nose dripped all the time and I had brain for,etc. I am 73, not over weight, active and love my life. For 40 plus years we have grown most of our food (organically) including our beef and goats. In 2023 I took the IGg blood test. I tested 100% in all dairy, most grains, some vegs and fruits, eggs, and coffee. I totally dropped any foods that were triggering me--very restrictive diet. Within a week I was a lot better, My heart doctor was amazed that my heart was now totally normal. I retested my IGg one year later. I had some improvement. Some foods that were 100% had dropped to a lower percent. Dairy and grains all remained high. I have remained on the diet and continue to feel great. No joint pain, steady heart, lots of energy but still a drippy nose and loss of hearing. I haven't had a pizza in 18 months until this week. I had a major reaction. Food is much more powerful that I ever imagined.
@@debipearl8861 Thank you, interesting. The nasal drip maybe an allergy to dusts or pollens. MSM really really helps me if I take enough of it. Of late, I've been doing rather more cheese than I think wise. Pecans and almonds are off limits as they seem to cause loose stool aka diarrhea. I am OK with other nuts. Typically in a day I eat a serving of berries with sour cream, fish, beef, lamb and pork. I seem to never to get salads. Once in while I get a half can of garbanzo beans. I don't eat corn meal, wheat, millet, rice, buckwheat or rye. I find citrus to be suspect though some days my fruit serving is a whole peeled grapefruit which I enjoy intensely. And I am due for some testing. I dropped going to the doctor at the start of the COVID vaccines campaign. Plus, he didn't provide me with my metabolic panels which I likely would understand better than he would.
I am so very glad to see comments like yours being made to tell people how significant food is - thank you. I am vaccine free and have a similar lifestyle and outlook - happy and active outdoors, home grown foods. I grew up with almost exclusively home grown or caught food and found, once we moved into ''civilisation'' that I am sensitive to processed/ chemically augmented foods so have avoided it all my adult life - I'm 65. The virus, [itself mild] however, did affect something in me, not too dramatic, but where a raw vegetable would ''feel'' like a sugar loaded cake. I cleared it quickly, days even, but it did make me think the something in all this persuades the body to lie to itself and I am certain that Dr Raszek is correct in his identification of the function of the vagus nerve in this regard.
I stopped eating pasta, and all breads, and sugars, basically everything that is white. I started this diet about 5+ years ago. Then I caved and ate a pasta dish made by my daughter at our Thanksgiving dinner. I paid for that later. My lower gut threw a terrible temper tantrum because the pasta threw it into spasms. It was very painful. It's hard to explain the pain I felt in my digestive tract. I had to rest a whole day because my gut just wasn't having it. I have not had any pasta since and I'll never do that to my body again.
I'm a blood and biopsy diagnosed celiac. At the time of my diagnosis I had chronic bone and gut pain. Even my skin hurt if the wind blew across me. After going gluten free the misrable decades old pain reduced to almost nothing. Now years later I find nightshades cause similar chronic pain.
I wonder if there is a difference between organic and non-organic foods and if the pesticides and fertilizers in the foods are triggering IgG4 response
After I was poisoned with Malathion by my city for mosquito spraying- I became allergic to almost all food. For 3 months I could only eat 2 fruits & by 6 months I could eat 4. At a yr - had 15 foods. Pesticides no messed me up big time. I only eat organic and muscle test any food I eat.
there is no difference between organic and non-organic, as you cannot determine the amount of contamination. our air and water is contaminated with forever chemicals...
This video explains the diet of Gulf War Illness. In 2012-2014 I did monodiet, then introduced foods one at a time, then monodiet. I had foods figured out in similar catagories. Instead of helping me, the VA sent me to mental health. The group doing this study need more recognition.
Hey!!! Someone else who gets it!! Or has gotten it! Been battling gwi since the war, sad that we have to go to videos to find the truth.... Couldn't tell you how many times the VA has tried taking me out..... I witnessed a fellow Marine die from n agent.....
🐝🧄🍯Since the topic allows this, I HIGHLY recommend *_Honey-fermented Garlic_* as a powerful immune system booster, this was used in ancient Egypt (Research it up for contraindications). I only use this in the winter time to avoid/minimize respiratory issues.
Thanks for sharing this!! I am super big into fermented foods (my fridge is full of different fermented products I keep making) so I am very curious about this one! Awesome tip!
Wow, so glad it was helpful! I can't believe I am hearing real life confirmation of what these scientists were presenting! :) Do you know if they were IgG4s or you got just a general IgG read out?
@@MerogenomicsMy lab paper does not state this. It is done through Immuno Labs in Fort Lauderdale FL. My doctor also ran IgAs separately which led to even more foods needing to be restricted . High Ig's with multiples of foods apparently are seen in patients that have autoimmune conditions like I do. I hope this gets to family practitioners, as I've been told in the past, that high levels are "normal" reactions and cause no problems. I strongly disagree. I know about 12 people who tested positive high levels and food restrictions have greatly helped and even reversed disease.
@@Merogenomics One has to ask & convince a doctor to test for the sub levels of IgG. When the test is done, I was informed that it tested for all 4 levels & an individual test for one of the sub levels could not be done. They said the test will cover all 4 sub levels. Most of the time a test of immunoglobulins will be for IgM, IgA, IgG only. These are considered the protective Ig s. No one, to my knowledge, knows what IgD does. IgE is generally regarded as inflammation/allergy immunoglobulin. IgA lines the mucosal system. IgM is a large molecule .. is protective. Both IgD & IgE in people have a low blood serum levels as compared with the other three. An IVIG is given to immuno-compromised people, which brings the level of IgG up only. The IgG is a tiny molecule and can get into everything, but the other immunoglobulins levels are generally not brought up after an infusion, unless one gets an infusion with an IgG solution that has more ‘trace amounts’ of IgA & IgM. Some doctors shy away from these solutions for fear of a patient reaction. If a patient has no IgA, for example, the patient could go into anaphylactic shock if given such a treatment. The IVIG solutions come with different trace amounts of IgA & IgM, but generally it is an infusion of just IgG. I recently read that IgA has 2 sub levels 🤷🏻♂.. I need to research that. Requesting the solution that has more IgA & IgM in them is more risky. There is a - pure solution, a 5% solution, a 10% solution. The solution with more IgA & IgM in them will gradually bring up the patient’s level of those two immunoglobulins and of course the IgG will come up dramatically after about 10 days to two weeks, but the levels will fall back down after that time and will vary among different people. Most all this is over my head but I keep stumbling along 🤪🤓
Doctor yesterday a young film actress in my state passed away from Wilson's disease. Can you please let us know the link between the Korona jaabs and this Wilson's disease.@@Merogenomics
@ I came to your link from Dr Peavier, I have been fighting stage 3 rectal C For the past year, on my third oncologist, they all seem clueless about alternative treatments, learning so much from experts like you, thanks for your passionate commitment in sharing your research. I refused vaccination but had 3 pints of blood after emergency colostomy..My protocol seems to be working with Fenbendazol and glutamine blockers, diet. Have new scans next week.
My blood work shows good anti-inflammatory markers and for decades I've consumed: Oatmeal Apple cider vinegar diluted in water Ginger & tumeric tea. Natural cocoa * And I agree ,Exercise & diet are top 2 complementary practices for health followed by low-stress and high quality sleep.
Wow, I am so surprised that people really enjoyed that backdrop as the mountains were barely visible with all of that snow dump behind me :D Thank you for enjoying the show!
Fantastic presentation Doctor, thank you.. I would never of guessed eggs would be so high on the list, pity as I eat a lot of eggs ! Beautiful backdrop as always.
But that does not mean you have to have that kind of reaction to eggs! Chances might be good, based on the #s they show, but definitely not a guarantee till you find out (if one was to test themselves)
@ Thank you for the reply, point taken regarding the eggs. I may experiment with a reduced intake for a period of time and see how I respond. Understandingly this isn’t taking the test although I may see some benefit. I very rarely eat cheese, never milk or cereals so I’m not doing too bad !
Are "vague scenes" (code for v word) using eggs somewhere along the way in their production? Yep, therefore maybe? possibly?? surely??? causing this allergy to eggs. Same for many other food allergies. @Merogenomics: connect the dots for your subscribers as the "$afe and effecive" arm pricks are like elephant in the room no one seems brave enough to mention. 🐘
@@juliettegoudreau216 I never took the arm juice nor do I have any allergies. I was merely mentioning the reasonably heavy consumption of eggs in my diet and possibly adjusting the aforementioned accordingly. I do understand the ‘ vaccine ‘ contents and their potential role in various health concerns and I stay away from such.
Interesting ….. but great that you are looking into what could cause symptoms rather than treating the symptoms which usually involves pharmaceutical company products
Well, this just happened to pop on my radar because of my interest in IgG4s but unfortunately people don't seem much interested in preventative care. At least this is potentially helpful for some who really suffer
Thanks, your information is like a lighthouse…. You don’t know how many ships you are saving from crashing onto the rocks but your light helps guide many more than you’ll get to know….
Thank you Mikolag ! :) .. I cant tell you how greatful I am for this info.. and will put it into action .. appreciated. sad millet is on there, as it has been a goto for alkaline high protein and such a versatile food.
It's not that those foods are bad because of the reaction. It's just that some people react to them, which usually means there's something wrong with the people, not with the food. Sometimes the food itself is not good, like dairy and eggs, but for other reasons.
Merci. Great to see you back! The foods you listed will now be excluded from my diet as have low-immunity and severe neuropathic pain in colon at night. From Australia. 🦋
Thank you so much! I have had chronic pain, mixed nociceptive pain with elements of neuropathic/central sensitization, for fifty years. This resulted from a complex spinal injury. After cutting out simple sugars and eating much smaller portions of grains about four years ago, a particular component of my pain (not directly related to my spinal trauma, imo) vanished...the myofascial pain syndrome, with dozens of trigger points, just went away. Poof. Gone for years. I had begun to forget, when recently I pigged out on Marzipan (sweet almond paste)...the very next day the stiffness, pain, and inflammation were back! Lasted about a week, then diminished to zero. There's really something to this. Is it IGg4? Let's find out! And no more Marzipan for me!
Wow, others commented on similar improvement here in the comments as well so yes, there is something to it. I also heard others mention it how their arthritis flares up after eating specific foods. You can test yourself for these, just look up the paper reference in the link I provided for the test that was used as I believe it might be commercially available
This could change my life......thanks for you work. As an engineer trying to find the cause of my conditions its valuable insight to find the root cause.
Yes, I can see how an engineer would want such precise info. You can look up the test they used in one of the studies, I believe it is commercially available. All the best and thanks for tuning in!
Having worked with those with mast cell issues that causes food allergies and sensitivities I can attest to the benefits of sorting out what someone's reacting to AND restoring microbiomes (not just the gut). I remember when you first started covering IgG4 thinking how similar it was to mast cell affective syndrome and wondering if the IgG4 was a mechanism of action.
Great video once again... I believe diet and exercise are synergenistic in that a healthy diet supplies the body with essential nutrients, and protection from potential gut damage. And exercise is the mechanism that supplies higher levels of oxygen and blood flow which allow the body to be ultra efficient, in matabolizing the nutrients, cell health, healing etc. etc.
@Merogenomics i would say diet. A good diet can be optimized with as little a 15-20 min of exercise a day. Where as if one had a poor diet or even just a "O.K" diet, it would take a much longer exercise routine to compensate. And the older you get the more critical it would be. Something else to consider is; it takes the body more energy to exercise than digesting food. They work so well together but diet by a small margin.
You cannot exercise your way out of a bad diet, so I say diet is #1 and exercise is #2 🤩 I truly appreciate all your videos and the information they bring across. I love the background of wherever you record them too. With the mountains and snow today I would say you are in B.C. but it could be Quebec. Nevertheless, both are beautiful.
Similar information was available at least by 2013 because Dr. Sara Ballentine discussed how to comb autoimmune disease with diet changes similar to the ones you are recommending. She is an immune system researcher who dug deep into how the body flares in auto immune. Autoimmune Coaches exist. We do see major changes in pain within 30 days. I have seen it as fast as 11 days on 100% of the protocol. There is hope, even though giving up favorite foods is incredibly difficult.
The problem is that people's wisdom is always ahead of science (sometimes many decades), and science is always ahead of medicine (sometimes also many decades). The unfortunate part is that our grassroots healers do not publish their findings in scientific papers. If that was the case, I think we would be moving so much faster. As I mentioned, these guys claimed they were first to publish such work, and these papers were 2022 and 2024! To me there are two spheres of wisdom out there, the official one and the unofficial one that is still propagated through books, magazine articles, newsletters or just word of mouth but because it is not backed by science, much of that wisdom is ignored by medicine, adding confusion. Eventually science will likely prove all of the people's wisdom anyway, so I wish we were smarter at tapping that knowledge than we are now.
@@MerogenomicsThat is a superb answer! I’m floored by the density of wisdom within those few sentences. Greetings again sir, from Gary and Mary in Cambridgeshire.
@ Don't wanto sound conspiranoid but a great juncture in healthcare came with interventions by the Rothschilds & later the Rockefellers, letting ancient knowledge fade away.
@@Merogenomics I have heard many science literate people refer to wisdom based remedies as anecdotal evidence. But, how different is anecdotal evidence from self-reported symptom improvement? Maybe I'm wrong, but I think the dietary practices in natural remedies that have been developed over hundreds and hundreds of years relied on observation of both the one administering these remedies, and the one taking them. And I know I'm not wrong in saying that observation is one of the pillars of the scientific method.
Great to have your unique informative talks, sur. By the way, the gray tones of background scenes with your color pop self make for dramatic presentation
Very interesting, thanks! I also wonder if properly fermented traditional breads (both, yeast & sourdough types) will reduce immune response (due to proteins breakdown) compared to non fermented grain products like cereals in the reviewed papers.
I will be talking about autophagy in my upcoming video on ivermectin and cancer and I am about to study another paper dedicated to autophagy as well. So look out for these
Great information! Thank you! I'm curious about corn and einkorn flour. Hoping to see something about that, but obviously the study couldn't include everything.
Thank you so much for this presentation.up to date info is soo good.ni ce to see you always.hope more soon....thk you for sharing yr dietary habits. I am an alternative therapist-long time retired, but dairy products were always seen to be a no no.that was from the 80s/90s.being mucous forming this makes sense.you have listed some other products there!!! I am a vegan of many years(for the non exploitation of animals), but you have mentione d many foodstuffs i wouldn't have exoected.
I wasn't a big fan of the no no list mentioned here because some of these I am a fan of, some of which I have already been trying to ween off of (milk products is a big one)
Yes I agree, I have all of these but at least in minimal quantities in my diet. Almost no eggs, milk products (although I always put a splash into my coffee, might have to learn to let that habit go), now reducing cheese too
My daughter was a food healing chef for a national organization. I recently came across medical medium. He recommends diet restrictions, i.e. no eggs, dairy, corn, gluten, bad fats, at least 50% reduction in all fats, no processed food, and more. I’ve been on this almost 4 months. Mychronic pain disappeared in a month. I started losing wt without effort. My skin is much improved. And more. What we are eating is obviously a major problem.
Lactic acid supplement reduces interleukin 6 which is associated with high levels of Igg4. It also transcribes the M1 ( inflammatory) macrophage into M2 (non inflammatory), reducing cytokine storm. Clearance takes time.
I have spent years with horrible joint pain and I linked it to milk. I am a milkaholic. I decided to get away from cow milk and milked my own goats. My inflammation would flair up in milking season. My hands would get so bad I could not sleep. I dried off the goats and the pain would go away. I wonder now if it is more about what the animals eat since all the feed we buy for our chickens and mammals is full of things like Roundup. We need to get all the poison our of our food before we can try to understand what is causing health issues. I went carnivor 3 years ago and lost 50 pounds the first month. It was all retained fluid and it was scary. Now I feel wonderful and walk like I did in my 20s. I am in my 70s. I will never eat a seed again in any form.
I have IGG4 RD. I do not eat eggs, cows milk, dairy, breads or cereal. I never have liked any of these foods. Lectins seem to trigger inflammation for me. I do eat chicken as my main source of protein. Chronic low back pain, pancreatitis and now being check for retro peritoneal. Pancreatic enzymes have helped. I have never had mNRA vaccine. I do not have spike protein but elevated IGG4 proteins. Sugars seem to be related?
Wow, they weren't kidding around then! Well, in this test, while most showed reaction to beans, the reaction in terms of levels of IgG4 was very minor, if I remember the data correctly
Going back roughly 14 years ago, I rather suddenly developed allergies to almost every food. Around the same time, I was also diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I went on an extreme elimination diet, and veeeeerrrryy slowly over the years have added more and more back in. Things that I used to react to, I can once again eat. I suspect that some of the things I've added back, I probably shouldn't have, but things are sort of a shot in the dark right now. I'm at least glad to be able to go out with people, and can usually find something to eat on the menu. However, it would be interesting to have the proper testing done. Where does one get this proper IgG4 testing? It sounds expensive.
I don't know how expensive the test is, I didn't look at the price but I did look up the company they used in one of the study and it looked like it was commercially available, so you could try it. Amazing story of success! Really loved it and glad you were able to get normal life back!
Yes, you can look at the paper I discussed to see what test they used (that is commercially available) if you want to find out what foods you are producing IgG4s against. I did not want to mention the test in the video specifically but when I was looking it up, my understanding is that it is available for purchase
I have had diagnosis of hashimoto's for 20.years.after.the birth of our son. I have seen naturopaths for about 17.years they did testing on food along time ago. I have joint pain and swellling fatigue etc.if I eat eggs, grains, soy, dairy, beans, etc... bit if I restrict my diet to organic.chicken , organic greens, peas, fish, beef, sweet potatoes, I feel like myself and have energy. But it is hard to stick with all the time!
I recall watching a video about diet and histamine relating to mast cell activation syndrome and cutting out food that was triggering it so that eventually the over reacting cells are replaced with less sensitive ones. I definitely prescribe to the notion that we have different intolerance to foods and I'm very interested as to why. My initial thoughts are that what is being put onto and absorbed into crops are being past into the food chain and these micro toxins within are causing an associated auto immune reaction to the proteins/fats containing it effectively priming the immune system.
I keep bees and get about 10-30 bee stings per year. When I first started, I would swell up like crazy with lots of pain. Now a sting causes a minor inflammation and a lot less pain. My bee venom IgG4 I’m sure is elevated. How much of a risk do you think I have?
I actually wanted to look for science info on IgG4 levels in bee keepers precisely because of that very concept but still haven't found literature that is available for study. But based on my understanding is that bee keepers are not know at all to have elevated health issue risks because of their IgG4 levels and in fact they are considered to be healthier than a general population. Your IgG4 levels against bee venom might be insignificant in comparison to what others might be experiencing due to food for example and bee keepers generally tend to lead healthier more organic lifestyles, no? But you could always test your IgG4 levels to see if you are curious. To me, elevated IgG4 is alarm only if cancer is also involved, and then I would pay attention just in case
Have you looked into multi-day dry fasting? Not too long ago the dark horse podcast did an episode on it and two things they talked about were its positive effects on information and autoimmune disorders.
So glad you did a video on this. I will share this with some of my friends who are experiencing relatively new onset of neuropathy. Spectacular scenery in the background. It looks like it’s a little warmer than your last video. Thanks again for researching things and sharing them. I really appreciate it.
9:10 If there was no drop in IgG4 after 30 days of removing these foods, how do they know it was these foods causing increase in IgG4 in the first place?
Only on account of the restriction diet that was guided by IgG4 antibodies. The authors mentioned that the overall levels might take longer than 30 days to see the effect (because there are many different sources of IgG4s). But that is precisely why I also presented the 2nd study on kids where they did longer time frames and did see a drop
Thank you for these informations, they are of course very interesting! People nowadays are in general more aware of the food, that they eat. So allergies and pain get more awareness then before 50 years and we try to heal or avoid them much more than in the past. But I think, that there are many different causes for all those relative ( clinically seen ) unspecific symptoms. I found out long ago, that most people with back pain and bad digestion ( and typically every winter 2 - or 3 - times ill with flu, sometimes in summer too ), have problems in their whole way of living, didn't like their profession and were rather UNAWARE of a lot of things - but just stayed in the same kind of unhappy life. We have - in a way ( at least in comparison to the people's nutrition of the first half of the 19th century, from the 40ies on it became much better ), the best nutrition of all times, but we're criticizing ( and suffering of ) it on a very high level. Children are especially predestinated to get illnesses, that are highly co - influenced by the psychological ecspectations of their parents and the society. Medical and scientific opinions are permanently changing, very often they are a kind of the newest scientific mainstream fashion and nearly always they're part of a new business model ( the so - called Covid - “vaccines“ weren't healthy or helpful at all, but probably more harmful, than even the early critics warned ).
I also see the trend that people are become much more conscious about the quality of their food, like there is an awareness growing that our food has been too compromised and we want to get back to the quality but you do raise a good point and that from a nutritious point of view, we are indeed in a much better place than not even that long ago
Did the study acknowledge whether or not the animals were treated with an mRna vaccine? Did they control their sample population for individuals who have or not have received an mRna injection?
I have Ehler Danlos Syndrome and a lot of MCAS pain. I eat as low histamines as possible, but still have awful congested pain in the hips, pelvis and feet. Any suggestions? I take lots of anti inflammatory supplements. Still chronic. 😢 thank you!
You could do the test for food-based IgG4s. You should also look into the vagus nerve activation as it can reduce inflammation and help with pain is a big benefit. Look into my last two vagus nerve related videos to learn more ua-cam.com/video/gztjA7WrPNk/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/FX4OXQhn2xQ/v-deo.html
Supposedly sour dough has different properties and different reactions. Not sure about the antibodies but I am especially interested in it for the glycemic index purposes
I wonder what makes a lot of people so food sensitive these days. Screwed up gut microbiomes, I suppose. As far as eggs and cows milk, I think they should be avoided regardless, because of all the various bad substances they contain, as well as they have no fiber or phytonutrients.
@@MerogenomicsLet's look at the likely culprit: the numerous "$afe and effective" injections we allow the bought-and-paid for and-or the willfully blind practtioners of "Follow the $cience" and "Doctor$ know best" to give babies from the day they are born and that most people who have a misplaced trust in these practioners allow them to inflict on children and themselves. Time to look at the real blatant cause of much of this increase in food allergies and many other ailments 🧐
It's the shoes we put on children's feet as soon as they begin walking...no ground dirt exposure, no immune response/learning at correct early age. Combined with the obsession with cleaning and cleaning products in an already "sterile" enviroment. Kids don't farm, fish, hunt or gather in our society. They don't get dirty. They should be exposed to many, many, microbes by about age six, yet are not.
@@DogChowGurl I agree with that. But there are so many things, like antibiotic overuse and other medications, a diet without fiber, and now inheriting a deficient microbiome already from the start, or birth from ceasarians, not being breastfed, fed with all kinds of toxins or exposed to them, being overweight, etc, etc. It can be so much.
I am astonished that spelt has higher rates of IgG4 than wheat,and how did you study gluten separately than wheat.Something does not make sense.Spelt has higher protein content but less gluten.Are you able to explain.I love bread I am European and I have deliberately replaced wheat with buckwheat and spelt for a long time.Iam also a LBP sufferer.
But why does the IgG4 antibody response have to do anything with the gluten level? If I had to guess, the reason why we produce such antibodies is because the food component mimics something too much that is also part of our body and such individuals are genetically predisposed to produce these types of antibodies as a response, so that response has to be attenuated, hence the switch to IgG4 (keep in mind, I am just speculating here). Alternatively such individuals are genetically predisposed to have very high response to some element in food irrespective if it mimics anything in our body or not, and still has to be attenuated as well. Let me know your thoughts
Spelt is an ancient graint I am corelating our adaptability to it in the evolution through the years and lack of cancers in the past Compared to the newly hybridised wheats and increase in morbidity of all kinds nowadays. How was gluten studedseparately in your study?
@Merogenomics I'm very allergic to nuts. Eggs confirmed as causing my eczema it went away after I stopped eating eggs. I recently added milk to my diet after discontinuing use of oat milk and I suspect that change has been causing me eye allergies. Still doing elimination test to be sure.
So many variables without specifics. How is the food produced? Where? With what? Is the soil healthy? What are they feeding the chickens? GMO feed? Pesticides? On and on and on. Studies are needed! My daughter and I have Alpha Gal syndrome. Have you heard of that?
No have not heard about it, and of course you are right that there are tons of variables to consider but it seems like scientists are just peeking into this concept. We have a long way to go it seems
Coconut flesh/milk/butter with its long and short chain fatty acid's work as well as pro biotic's as food medicine,with zinc,,but like all food as medicine it's accumulative in the blood,requiring consuming every day for a few week's as the levels/balancing act take's place in the Bone's and blood.try chewing coconut for half an hour each day-no child would do it.cheese is an pure acid(bad for osteoporosis/pain)whilst yogurt is a pure alkaline which sooth's and nourishes gut/blood and Bone's/joint's inflammation/osteoporosis but no doctor's/governments have told people in the world for 60 year's/promoting cheese for bone deteriation/pain which is rong.,cheese is full of calcium but is also a pure acid for the bone's.fake margarine and butter has had long chain fatty acids removed,which most people lack,and can replace with coconut chew chew chew chew
Eggs from chickens fed with grains in mass production or biological eggs from pastured poultry which has more K2 in them? Those eggs are healthy and I eat them everyday together with raw milk products and fermented foods.
You got in trouble for videos? I wondered why I could not find anything current for quite a while. You must have gotten too close to the truth. Geez. Truth is contagious, and anything contagious needs to be locked down in our day, apparently. Welcome back.
Humans are facultative carnivores and should be eating minimal or no plants period. Only wild/pasture/grass-fed meat and perhaps moderate animal products (eggs, dairy).
Everyone is suggesting turmeric as a tonic and a detox and cancer cure,,,maybe it help's with cancer and pain on the same icg4 reduction level,but who knows
well maybe if you don't mind oxalates to build up in your body, I've never heard nor read any scientific info on turmeric having any healing qualities of any kind, again, just more BS folk myths.
I' ve learned some years ago, that this is...might be a sort of retarded response as a food allergy..intolerance, even lectin response in the gut.So far I was astonished to hear about immunresponse but merely seen as being supposed cancerogenic Thank you for your amazing infos🎉
I wouldn't think of carcinogenic as I don't think we have evidence that IgG4s cause cancer, but rather they might be bad combination along with cancer, and this might be for only specific cancers too. Difficult to know because the role of IgG4s in cancer is still not well understood I don't think
@Merogenomics sorry I thought you were talking about mRNA related aspects..I know about NutriGenomics and also recommendations of 50 years of the research of the D' Adamo's .from Connetticut My firsthand knowledge about IgG 4 interactions and the gut are from a Germany lab nearby Frankfurt .The owner gave some lessions about this very thema, and sold special test kits.
Interesting study. Unfortunately our food supply has been so bastardized I don't think you could just look at food. For instance with eggs we're not looking at what the chickens eat. Are the eggs from range fed chicken only or from grain-fed chickens. Milk intake is down dramatically over the decades with increased allergies. What's the milk in the study whole milk or skim milk. What is the milk pasteurized or unpasteurized. We've got to look at what our food eats for the root cause of problems along with modifications done to those foods that are now accepted practices from years past. The Amish we're just raided as having the healthiest kids in the United States. They eat whole foods in restrict their kids on vaccines. The Messiah tribes drink drink whole milk mix with blood have no Cancers and heart disease. This study is full of holes. That need to be filled.
Think of this as a starting point as there are always limitations to any study. One hopes that science will be looking at this topic more frequently from now on
I had regular diarrhea, heart issues, bone pain, ears popped and were closed, my nose dripped all the time and I had brain for,etc. I am 73, not over weight, active and love my life. For 40 plus years we have grown most of our food (organically) including our beef and goats. In 2023 I took the IGg blood test. I tested 100% in all dairy, most grains, some vegs and fruits, eggs, and coffee. I totally dropped any foods that were triggering me--very restrictive diet. Within a week I was a lot better, My heart doctor was amazed that my heart was now totally normal. I retested my IGg one year later. I had some improvement. Some foods that were 100% had dropped to a lower percent. Dairy and grains all remained high. I have remained on the diet and continue to feel great. No joint pain, steady heart, lots of energy but still a drippy nose and loss of hearing. I haven't had a pizza in 18 months until this week. I had a major reaction. Food is much more powerful that I ever imagined.
Did you have to go to an Immunologist?
@@debipearl8861 Thank you, interesting. The nasal drip maybe an allergy to dusts or pollens. MSM really really helps me if I take enough of it. Of late, I've been doing rather more cheese than I think wise. Pecans and almonds are off limits as they seem to cause loose stool aka diarrhea. I am OK with other nuts. Typically in a day I eat a serving of berries with sour cream, fish, beef, lamb and pork. I seem to never to get salads. Once in while I get a half can of garbanzo beans. I don't eat corn meal, wheat, millet, rice, buckwheat or rye. I find citrus to be suspect though some days my fruit serving is a whole peeled grapefruit which I enjoy intensely. And I am due for some testing. I dropped going to the doctor at the start of the COVID vaccines campaign. Plus, he didn't provide me with my metabolic panels which I likely would understand better than he would.
I am so very glad to see comments like yours being made to tell people how significant food is - thank you. I am vaccine free and have a similar lifestyle and outlook - happy and active outdoors, home grown foods. I grew up with almost exclusively home grown or caught food and found, once we moved into ''civilisation'' that I am sensitive to processed/ chemically augmented foods so have avoided it all my adult life - I'm 65. The virus, [itself mild] however, did affect something in me, not too dramatic, but where a raw vegetable would ''feel'' like a sugar loaded cake. I cleared it quickly, days even, but it did make me think the something in all this persuades the body to lie to itself and I am certain that Dr Raszek is correct in his identification of the function of the vagus nerve in this regard.
Wonderful, well done. Examples like yours areboth interesting and valuable!
I stopped eating pasta, and all breads, and sugars, basically everything that is white. I started this diet about 5+ years ago. Then I caved and ate a pasta dish made by my daughter at our Thanksgiving dinner. I paid for that later. My lower gut threw a terrible temper tantrum because the pasta threw it into spasms. It was very painful. It's hard to explain the pain I felt in my digestive tract. I had to rest a whole day because my gut just wasn't having it. I have not had any pasta since and I'll never do that to my body again.
Just a quick comment to underscore how much gratitude there is from us viewers to your insight, integrity and hardwork. Many many thanks
Thank you for such a nice comment! This takes lots of hard work for very skimpy pay out but I love it
The most important thing is that our children eat healthy food that is free of harmful substances. Every government in the world should ensure this.
Agreed!
I'm a blood and biopsy diagnosed celiac. At the time of my diagnosis I had chronic bone and gut pain. Even my skin hurt if the wind blew across me. After going gluten free the misrable decades old pain reduced to almost nothing. Now years later I find nightshades cause similar chronic pain.
I wonder if there is a difference between organic and non-organic foods and if the pesticides and fertilizers in the foods are triggering IgG4 response
That is a great question, would love to know the answer to that one too!
I bet there is. I have hopes for information dissemination once RFK Jr gets the job (🤞) MAHA
After I was poisoned with Malathion by my city for mosquito spraying- I became allergic to almost all food. For 3 months I could only eat 2 fruits & by 6 months I could eat 4. At a yr - had 15 foods. Pesticides no messed me up big time. I only eat organic and muscle test any food I eat.
I was poisoned during the first gulf war, allegedly.......we are all nothing but lab rats.. diet is the ticket @@marilynconway1776
there is no difference between organic and non-organic, as you cannot determine the amount of contamination. our air and water is contaminated with forever chemicals...
Diet has gotta be #1. The saying "you can't out-exercise a bad diet" is spot on.
Ha, very well said :)
I'd suggest extending that quote to include 'junk light' diet too!
This video explains the diet of Gulf War Illness.
In 2012-2014 I did monodiet, then introduced foods one at a time, then monodiet.
I had foods figured out in similar catagories.
Instead of helping me, the VA sent me to mental health.
The group doing this study need more recognition.
Hey!!! Someone else who gets it!! Or has gotten it! Been battling gwi since the war, sad that we have to go to videos to find the truth.... Couldn't tell you how many times the VA has tried taking me out..... I witnessed a fellow Marine die from n agent.....
Thank you. This helps inform Long Lyme and Long Covid people experiencing issues.
🐝🧄🍯Since the topic allows this, I HIGHLY recommend *_Honey-fermented Garlic_* as a powerful immune system booster, this was used in ancient Egypt (Research it up for contraindications). I only use this in the winter time to avoid/minimize respiratory issues.
Thanks for sharing this!! I am super big into fermented foods (my fridge is full of different fermented products I keep making) so I am very curious about this one! Awesome tip!
@@Merogenomics Excellent!
Yes! I make honey fermented onion as well. We need to go back to ancient remedies that work
@@Tasty4339 Yes 💯
Some ppl also react on that so it included in IGG4 panels. You need an IGG4 panel done personally to know to which foods your body reacts.
Thanks for Sharing this Update Dr Raszek
Always a pleasure!
Thank you very much for your valuable Videos! What a shame to get into troubles for such a precious work.
Best regards and best wishes from France!
Shame on authorities who censor inconvenient scientific findings
Fermented foods seem to help a lot, like Sauerkraut, Kefir, ...
Thank you. I tested for elevated IgG for over 30 foods. Nice to learn more about this. Getting off these foods greaty helped.
Wow, so glad it was helpful! I can't believe I am hearing real life confirmation of what these scientists were presenting! :) Do you know if they were IgG4s or you got just a general IgG read out?
@@MerogenomicsMy lab paper does not state this. It is done through Immuno Labs in Fort Lauderdale FL. My doctor also ran IgAs separately which led to even more foods needing to be restricted . High Ig's with multiples of foods apparently are seen in patients that have autoimmune conditions like I do.
I hope this gets to family practitioners, as I've been told in the past, that high levels are "normal" reactions and cause no problems. I strongly disagree. I know about 12 people who tested positive high levels and food restrictions have greatly helped and even reversed disease.
@@Merogenomics One has to ask & convince a doctor to test for
the sub levels of IgG. When the test is done, I was informed that it tested for
all 4 levels & an individual test for one of the sub levels could not be done.
They said the test will cover all 4 sub levels.
Most of the time a test of immunoglobulins will be for IgM, IgA, IgG only.
These are considered the protective Ig s.
No one, to my knowledge, knows what IgD does.
IgE is generally regarded as inflammation/allergy immunoglobulin.
IgA lines the mucosal system. IgM is a large molecule .. is protective.
Both IgD & IgE in people have a low blood serum levels as compared with the other three.
An IVIG is given to immuno-compromised people, which brings the level of IgG up only.
The IgG is a tiny molecule and can get into everything, but the other immunoglobulins levels are generally not brought up after an infusion, unless one gets an infusion with
an IgG solution that has more ‘trace amounts’ of IgA & IgM. Some doctors shy away from these solutions for fear of a patient reaction. If a patient has no IgA, for example,
the patient could go into anaphylactic shock if given such a treatment.
The IVIG solutions come with different trace amounts of IgA & IgM, but generally it
is an infusion of just IgG.
I recently read that IgA has 2 sub levels 🤷🏻♂.. I need to research that.
Requesting the solution that has more IgA & IgM in them is more risky.
There is a - pure solution, a 5% solution, a 10% solution.
The solution with more IgA & IgM in them will gradually bring up the patient’s level
of those two immunoglobulins and of course the IgG will come up dramatically
after about 10 days to two weeks, but the levels will fall back down after that time
and will vary among different people.
Most all this is over my head but I keep stumbling along 🤪🤓
How do I request such a blood test?
Please do more on this topic
I can't. Those were the only 2 papers I found :D
Doctor yesterday a young film actress in my state passed away from Wilson's disease. Can you please let us know the link between the Korona jaabs and this Wilson's disease.@@Merogenomics
Nice presentation, lots of interesting facts, like your background in nature
Glad you liked it and being in nature is super important. Actually I will be presenting on that soon too :D
@ I came to your link from Dr Peavier, I have been fighting stage 3 rectal C For the past year, on my third oncologist, they all seem clueless about alternative treatments, learning so much from experts like you, thanks for your passionate commitment in sharing your research. I refused vaccination but had 3 pints of blood after emergency colostomy..My protocol seems to be working with Fenbendazol and glutamine blockers, diet. Have new scans next week.
My blood work shows good anti-inflammatory markers and for decades I've consumed:
Oatmeal
Apple cider vinegar diluted in water
Ginger & tumeric tea.
Natural cocoa
* And I agree ,Exercise & diet are top 2 complementary practices for health followed by low-stress and high quality sleep.
Good on you! I just got introduced to the apple cider vinegar concept too! But which one would you rank #1 if you had to? exercise or diet?
@@MerogenomicsExercise by a narrow margin.
@@Merogenomics I'd say diet, exercise and sleep are all very important. There are too many variables to be able to put one first.
@Merogenomics I say exercise because it helps with your mood.
@@Cooking4health-2025 Yes! also cardiovascular strenght, is abig one diet alone can't boost.
❤❤❤ Fascinating presentation and such a beautiful backdrop.
Wow, I am so surprised that people really enjoyed that backdrop as the mountains were barely visible with all of that snow dump behind me :D Thank you for enjoying the show!
Thanks!
Thank you for the coffee!!!
you can get coffee for that price? I can only get a single expression!😅😢
This is the most concise and clear discussion of antibodies I have ever heard. Keep dear SIR. 😮❤😂
Aw thank you, feels good to hear this! :)
Excellent discussion and data, thanks for sharing
Fantastic presentation Doctor, thank you..
I would never of guessed eggs would be so high on the list, pity as I eat a lot of eggs !
Beautiful backdrop as always.
But that does not mean you have to have that kind of reaction to eggs! Chances might be good, based on the #s they show, but definitely not a guarantee till you find out (if one was to test themselves)
@ Thank you for the reply, point taken regarding the eggs. I may experiment with a reduced intake for a period of time and see how I respond. Understandingly this isn’t taking the test although I may see some benefit. I very rarely eat cheese, never milk or cereals so I’m not doing too bad !
Are "vague scenes" (code for v word) using eggs somewhere along the way in their production? Yep, therefore maybe? possibly?? surely??? causing this allergy to eggs.
Same for many other food allergies. @Merogenomics: connect the dots for your subscribers as the "$afe and effecive" arm pricks are like elephant in the room no one seems brave enough to mention. 🐘
@@juliettegoudreau216 I never took the arm juice nor do I have any allergies. I was merely mentioning the reasonably heavy consumption of eggs in my diet and possibly adjusting the aforementioned accordingly. I do understand the ‘ vaccine ‘ contents and their potential role in various health concerns and I stay away from such.
@ I knew traditional REAL vakks used eggs for their production but these mRNAs don't as far as I know.
Interesting ….. but great that you are looking into what could cause symptoms rather than treating the symptoms which usually involves pharmaceutical company products
Well, this just happened to pop on my radar because of my interest in IgG4s but unfortunately people don't seem much interested in preventative care. At least this is potentially helpful for some who really suffer
Thanks, your information is like a lighthouse…. You don’t know how many ships you are saving from crashing onto the rocks but your light helps guide many more than you’ll get to know….
What would have we done without you all these years ❤ tysm doc
Read a lot of boring science papers? Correction: I love studying science papers so I find them a thrill to read! Totally recommend ;)
thank you so much , i have some good friends who had the " pokey " thing 😢, thank you so much for all of your videos .
thank you for your support and hope you and your friends are all doing great
Its good to see you're back on youtube
Happy to be back but now have to rebuild the following back to something meaningful. Not easy times now
Thank you Mikolag ! :)
.. I cant tell you how greatful I am for this info.. and will put it into action .. appreciated.
sad millet is on there, as it has been a goto for alkaline high protein and such a versatile food.
It's not that those foods are bad because of the reaction. It's just that some people react to them, which usually means there's something wrong with the people, not with the food. Sometimes the food itself is not good, like dairy and eggs, but for other reasons.
Thank you for sharing this video with us.
Merci. Great to see you back! The foods you listed will now be excluded from my diet as have low-immunity and severe neuropathic pain in colon at night. From Australia. 🦋
Allergies are common in children today. They were not common at all 40 years ago. How did the childhood vaccine schedule from 1980 compare to today's?
You know how :)
Thank you, excellent episode as usual.
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for your encouragement!
Your information is very helpful and valuable to anyone interested in finding the truth
Please keep it up
Thank you and hope I can continue doing this
Thank you so much! I have had chronic pain, mixed nociceptive pain with elements of neuropathic/central sensitization, for fifty years.
This resulted from a complex spinal injury.
After cutting out simple sugars and eating much smaller portions of grains about four years ago, a particular component of my pain (not directly related to my spinal trauma, imo) vanished...the myofascial pain syndrome, with dozens of trigger points, just went away. Poof. Gone for years.
I had begun to forget, when recently I pigged out on Marzipan (sweet almond paste)...the very next day the stiffness, pain, and inflammation were back! Lasted about a week, then diminished to zero.
There's really something to this. Is it IGg4? Let's find out! And no more Marzipan for me!
Wow, others commented on similar improvement here in the comments as well so yes, there is something to it. I also heard others mention it how their arthritis flares up after eating specific foods. You can test yourself for these, just look up the paper reference in the link I provided for the test that was used as I believe it might be commercially available
Excellent info!! Thank you! 😊
You are so welcome!
This could change my life......thanks for you work. As an engineer trying to find the cause of my conditions its valuable insight to find the root cause.
Yes, I can see how an engineer would want such precise info. You can look up the test they used in one of the studies, I believe it is commercially available. All the best and thanks for tuning in!
Thanks dr.
Welcome 😊
Thank you. As always, it is very informative 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Having worked with those with mast cell issues that causes food allergies and sensitivities I can attest to the benefits of sorting out what someone's reacting to AND restoring microbiomes (not just the gut). I remember when you first started covering IgG4 thinking how similar it was to mast cell affective syndrome and wondering if the IgG4 was a mechanism of action.
Very interesting indeed. Thank you very much for your explanation. Greetings from Switzerland.
Glad you enjoyed and I enjoyed filming in Switzerland when visiting there!
Great video once again... I believe diet and exercise are synergenistic in that a healthy diet supplies the body with essential nutrients, and protection from potential gut damage. And exercise is the mechanism that supplies higher levels of oxygen and blood flow which allow the body to be ultra efficient, in matabolizing the nutrients, cell health, healing etc. etc.
I totally agree. The only reason why I asked is because which one would you place in #1 spot? That is my philosophical dilemma :)
@Merogenomics i would say diet. A good diet can be optimized with as little a 15-20 min of exercise a day. Where as if one had a poor diet or even just a "O.K" diet, it would take a much longer exercise routine to compensate. And the older you get the more critical it would be. Something else to consider is; it takes the body more energy to exercise than digesting food.
They work so well together but diet by a small margin.
You cannot exercise your way out of a bad diet, so I say diet is #1 and exercise is #2 🤩 I truly appreciate all your videos and the information they bring across. I love the background of wherever you record them too. With the mountains and snow today I would say you are in B.C. but it could be Quebec. Nevertheless, both are beautiful.
Alberta but yeah, it could easily be BC too. Everyone so far says diet is #1 between those two! I am being swayed by collective wisdom :D
Similar information was available at least by 2013 because Dr. Sara Ballentine discussed how to comb autoimmune disease with diet changes similar to the ones you are recommending. She is an immune system researcher who dug deep into how the body flares in auto immune. Autoimmune Coaches exist. We do see major changes in pain within 30 days. I have seen it as fast as 11 days on 100% of the protocol. There is hope, even though giving up favorite foods is incredibly difficult.
The problem is that people's wisdom is always ahead of science (sometimes many decades), and science is always ahead of medicine (sometimes also many decades). The unfortunate part is that our grassroots healers do not publish their findings in scientific papers. If that was the case, I think we would be moving so much faster. As I mentioned, these guys claimed they were first to publish such work, and these papers were 2022 and 2024! To me there are two spheres of wisdom out there, the official one and the unofficial one that is still propagated through books, magazine articles, newsletters or just word of mouth but because it is not backed by science, much of that wisdom is ignored by medicine, adding confusion. Eventually science will likely prove all of the people's wisdom anyway, so I wish we were smarter at tapping that knowledge than we are now.
@@MerogenomicsThat is a superb answer! I’m floored by the density of wisdom within those few sentences. Greetings again sir, from Gary and Mary in Cambridgeshire.
@ Don't wanto sound conspiranoid but a great juncture in healthcare came with interventions by the Rothschilds & later the Rockefellers, letting ancient knowledge fade away.
@@Merogenomics Add UA-cam to your list of information sources, Doc 😊 well done, sir.
@@Merogenomics I have heard many science literate people refer to wisdom based remedies as anecdotal evidence. But, how different is anecdotal evidence from self-reported symptom improvement? Maybe I'm wrong, but I think the dietary practices in natural remedies that have been developed over hundreds and hundreds of years relied on observation of both the one administering these remedies, and the one taking them. And I know I'm not wrong in saying that observation is one of the pillars of the scientific method.
Great to have your unique informative talks, sur. By the way, the gray tones of background scenes with your color pop self make for dramatic presentation
thanks so much
Very interesting, thanks!
I also wonder if properly fermented traditional breads (both, yeast & sourdough types) will reduce immune response (due to proteins breakdown) compared to non fermented grain products like cereals in the reviewed papers.
Plus, true sourdough breads have much fewer toxins, such as glyphosate, because the fermentation destroys it.
Absolutely since fermentation eliminates antinutrient s.
Can you please address using bromelain on an empty stomach and the theory that it increases the power of autophagy? Thank you Doc.
I will be talking about autophagy in my upcoming video on ivermectin and cancer and I am about to study another paper dedicated to autophagy as well. So look out for these
Thank-you ❤
Thank you for enjoying it
Great information! Thank you! I'm curious about corn and einkorn flour. Hoping to see something about that, but obviously the study couldn't include everything.
Yes, I wish we had more studies like this and hopefully so moving forward
Thank you so much for this presentation.up to date info is soo good.ni ce to see you always.hope more soon....thk you for sharing yr dietary habits.
I am an alternative therapist-long time retired, but dairy products were always seen to be a no no.that was from the 80s/90s.being mucous forming this makes sense.you have listed some other products there!!! I am a vegan of many years(for the non exploitation of animals), but you have mentione d many foodstuffs i wouldn't have exoected.
I wasn't a big fan of the no no list mentioned here because some of these I am a fan of, some of which I have already been trying to ween off of (milk products is a big one)
Wheat, Gluten, and milk, are easy to Stop..
Eggs and Cheese.. more difficult to Stop eating.. 😊
Tnx for info
Yes I agree, I have all of these but at least in minimal quantities in my diet. Almost no eggs, milk products (although I always put a splash into my coffee, might have to learn to let that habit go), now reducing cheese too
@@Merogenomics Tnx. Agree🤩
dairy is NOT easy to stop, I constantly struggle. Gluten-free has been easy though
My daughter was a food healing chef for a national organization. I recently came across medical medium. He recommends diet restrictions, i.e. no eggs, dairy, corn, gluten, bad fats, at least 50% reduction in all fats, no processed food, and more. I’ve been on this almost 4 months. Mychronic pain disappeared in a month. I started losing wt without effort. My skin is much improved. And more. What we are eating is obviously a major problem.
Wow, amazing results! Multiple people now comment on their beneficial experiences with diet restrictions! This is one of the best
Makes sense, when you have intestinal permeability eggs, dairy and wheat are the most common reactive foods.
Ha, so these two might be totally related?
Thank you!
Lactic acid supplement reduces interleukin 6 which is associated with high levels of Igg4. It also transcribes the M1 ( inflammatory) macrophage into M2 (non inflammatory), reducing cytokine storm. Clearance takes time.
very interesting, thanks for the tip!
The dairy. Did they test A1 vs A2? Is it possible that A2 milk would not produce much of these antibodies?
I have spent years with horrible joint pain and I linked it to milk. I am a milkaholic. I decided to get away from cow milk and milked my own goats. My inflammation would flair up in milking season. My hands would get so bad I could not sleep. I dried off the goats and the pain would go away. I wonder now if it is more about what the animals eat since all the feed we buy for our chickens and mammals is full of things like Roundup. We need to get all the poison our of our food before we can try to understand what is causing health issues. I went carnivor 3 years ago and lost 50 pounds the first month. It was all retained fluid and it was scary. Now I feel wonderful and walk like I did in my 20s. I am in my 70s. I will never eat a seed again in any form.
Yeah, i don't recall that kind of differentiation
I have IGG4 RD. I do not eat eggs, cows milk, dairy, breads or cereal. I never have liked any of these foods. Lectins seem to trigger inflammation for me. I do eat chicken as my main source of protein.
Chronic low back pain, pancreatitis and now being check for retro peritoneal.
Pancreatic enzymes have helped. I have never had mNRA vaccine. I do not have spike protein but elevated IGG4 proteins.
Sugars seem to be related?
In 2014 I was given a food allergy blood test and given a epi-pin for Beans especially Red kidney beans and Whey milk protein.
Wow, they weren't kidding around then! Well, in this test, while most showed reaction to beans, the reaction in terms of levels of IgG4 was very minor, if I remember the data correctly
There are no store bought organic foods at the stores anymore
Going back roughly 14 years ago, I rather suddenly developed allergies to almost every food. Around the same time, I was also diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I went on an extreme elimination diet, and veeeeerrrryy slowly over the years have added more and more back in. Things that I used to react to, I can once again eat. I suspect that some of the things I've added back, I probably shouldn't have, but things are sort of a shot in the dark right now. I'm at least glad to be able to go out with people, and can usually find something to eat on the menu. However, it would be interesting to have the proper testing done. Where does one get this proper IgG4 testing? It sounds expensive.
I don't know how expensive the test is, I didn't look at the price but I did look up the company they used in one of the study and it looked like it was commercially available, so you could try it. Amazing story of success! Really loved it and glad you were able to get normal life back!
Would a food allergy test tell you which foods are affecting this for chronic neuropathy pain?
Yes, you can look at the paper I discussed to see what test they used (that is commercially available) if you want to find out what foods you are producing IgG4s against. I did not want to mention the test in the video specifically but when I was looking it up, my understanding is that it is available for purchase
Bifidus cultures ,acidophilus, rhamnosus, reuteri bacterium produce lactic acid in cultures improving immunity, reducing cytokine storm
I have had diagnosis of hashimoto's for 20.years.after.the birth of our son. I have seen naturopaths for about 17.years they did testing on food along time ago. I have joint pain and swellling fatigue etc.if I eat eggs, grains, soy, dairy, beans, etc... bit if I restrict my diet to organic.chicken , organic greens, peas, fish, beef, sweet potatoes, I feel like myself and have energy. But it is hard to stick with all the time!
I recall watching a video about diet and histamine relating to mast cell activation syndrome and cutting out food that was triggering it so that eventually the over reacting cells are replaced with less sensitive ones.
I definitely prescribe to the notion that we have different intolerance to foods and I'm very interested as to why.
My initial thoughts are that what is being put onto and absorbed into crops are being past into the food chain and these micro toxins within are causing an associated auto immune reaction to the proteins/fats containing it effectively priming the immune system.
I keep bees and get about 10-30 bee stings per year. When I first started, I would swell up like crazy with lots of pain.
Now a sting causes a minor inflammation and a lot less pain. My bee venom IgG4 I’m sure is elevated.
How much of a risk do you think I have?
I actually wanted to look for science info on IgG4 levels in bee keepers precisely because of that very concept but still haven't found literature that is available for study. But based on my understanding is that bee keepers are not know at all to have elevated health issue risks because of their IgG4 levels and in fact they are considered to be healthier than a general population. Your IgG4 levels against bee venom might be insignificant in comparison to what others might be experiencing due to food for example and bee keepers generally tend to lead healthier more organic lifestyles, no? But you could always test your IgG4 levels to see if you are curious. To me, elevated IgG4 is alarm only if cancer is also involved, and then I would pay attention just in case
@ Thank you
Would love to see what raw milk does to igg4
Me too!!!! I was totally curious about that
What you eat Dr. Vegan???
Not vegan, I do eat meat but I learned to go for better quality but maybe less often
Do you know how long we continue making spike protiens after m-RNA? Thank-you
The longest published evidence thus far is up to 6 months ua-cam.com/video/zR8z0L2L4jM/v-deo.html
If we stop producing spike protien after 6 months, why does igG4 persist. thanks again
Is the cow milk raw or pasteurized and homogenized? Curious if there is a difference cow milk.
Egg is used to make Vaccine, while interesting. Causes inflammation, problems with the vaccines and Eggs?
Have you looked into multi-day dry fasting? Not too long ago the dark horse podcast did an episode on it and two things they talked about were its positive effects on information and autoimmune disorders.
So glad you did a video on this. I will share this with some of my friends who are experiencing relatively new onset of neuropathy.
Spectacular scenery in the background. It looks like it’s a little warmer than your last video. Thanks again for researching things and sharing them. I really appreciate it.
Igg4 and spike protein...perhaps update us?
Yes, I plan to study some papers right away. This was my way of getting my interest back into the topic ;)
@Merogenomics Thank you
9:10 If there was no drop in IgG4 after 30 days of removing these foods, how do they know it was these foods causing increase in IgG4 in the first place?
good point
Only on account of the restriction diet that was guided by IgG4 antibodies. The authors mentioned that the overall levels might take longer than 30 days to see the effect (because there are many different sources of IgG4s). But that is precisely why I also presented the 2nd study on kids where they did longer time frames and did see a drop
Thank you for these informations, they are of
course very interesting!
People nowadays are in general more aware of the food, that they eat. So allergies and pain get more awareness then before 50 years and we try to heal or avoid them much more than in the past.
But I think, that there are many different causes for all those relative ( clinically seen )
unspecific symptoms.
I found out long ago, that most people with back pain and bad digestion ( and typically every winter 2 - or 3 - times ill with flu, sometimes in summer too ),
have problems in their whole way of living, didn't like their profession and were rather UNAWARE of a lot of things - but just stayed in the same kind of unhappy life.
We have - in a way
( at least in comparison to the people's nutrition of the first half of the 19th century, from the 40ies on it became much better ),
the best nutrition of all times, but we're criticizing
( and suffering of )
it on a very high level.
Children are especially predestinated to get illnesses,
that are highly co - influenced by the psychological ecspectations of their parents and the society.
Medical and scientific opinions are permanently changing, very often they are a kind of the newest scientific mainstream
fashion and nearly always they're part of a new
business model
( the so - called Covid - “vaccines“ weren't healthy or helpful at all, but probably more harmful, than even the early critics warned ).
I also see the trend that people are become much more conscious about the quality of their food, like there is an awareness growing that our food has been too compromised and we want to get back to the quality but you do raise a good point and that from a nutritious point of view, we are indeed in a much better place than not even that long ago
Do other countries also irrigate crops with petroleum industry waste water, or just the US? Grow your own food!!
I've never heard of that in Canada, or for that matter in the USA.
Did the study acknowledge whether or not the animals were treated with an mRna vaccine? Did they control their sample population for individuals who have or not have received an mRna injection?
I don't recall any mention of vaccination status
I don’t see corn or cane sugar listed here….
I have Ehler Danlos Syndrome and a lot of MCAS pain. I eat as low histamines as possible, but still have awful congested pain in the hips, pelvis and feet. Any suggestions? I take lots of anti inflammatory supplements. Still chronic. 😢 thank you!
You could do the test for food-based IgG4s. You should also look into the vagus nerve activation as it can reduce inflammation and help with pain is a big benefit. Look into my last two vagus nerve related videos to learn more ua-cam.com/video/gztjA7WrPNk/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/FX4OXQhn2xQ/v-deo.html
P.S. for the Food-based IgG4 test, look at the study references I provided in video description. I believed a commercial test was used in one instance
I'm wondering if reaction to wheat is significantly less if used as sour dough?
Organic farm eggs vs mass production?
Raw milk vs non raw milk?
Supposedly sour dough has different properties and different reactions. Not sure about the antibodies but I am especially interested in it for the glycemic index purposes
About diet and exercise, you cannot work-off a poor diet, but proper nutrition and adaquit amounts can produce good health with minimum exercise.
Ha, it seems that people are definitely leaning as quality diet being the top thing to consider! Thanks for the feedback!
I wonder what makes a lot of people so food sensitive these days. Screwed up gut microbiomes, I suppose.
As far as eggs and cows milk, I think they should be avoided regardless, because of all the various bad substances they contain, as well as they have no fiber or phytonutrients.
I wonder about that too. We have increased issues that we didn't see before
@@MerogenomicsLet's look at the likely culprit: the numerous "$afe and effective" injections we allow the bought-and-paid for and-or the willfully blind practtioners of "Follow the $cience" and "Doctor$ know best" to give babies from the day they are born and that most people who have a misplaced trust in these practioners allow them to inflict on children and themselves. Time to look at the real blatant cause of much of this increase in food allergies and many other ailments
🧐
Mankind has consumed milk and eggs for thousands of years.
It's the shoes we put on children's feet as soon as they begin walking...no ground dirt exposure, no immune response/learning at correct early age. Combined with the obsession with cleaning and cleaning products in an already "sterile" enviroment. Kids don't farm, fish, hunt or gather in our society. They don't get dirty. They should be exposed to many, many, microbes by about age six, yet are not.
@@DogChowGurl I agree with that. But there are so many things, like antibiotic overuse and other medications, a diet without fiber, and now inheriting a deficient microbiome already from the start, or birth from ceasarians, not being breastfed, fed with all kinds of toxins or exposed to them, being overweight, etc, etc. It can be so much.
I am astonished that spelt has higher rates of IgG4 than wheat,and how did you study gluten separately than wheat.Something does not make sense.Spelt has higher protein content but less gluten.Are you able to explain.I love bread I am European and I have deliberately replaced wheat with buckwheat and spelt for a long time.Iam also a LBP sufferer.
But why does the IgG4 antibody response have to do anything with the gluten level? If I had to guess, the reason why we produce such antibodies is because the food component mimics something too much that is also part of our body and such individuals are genetically predisposed to produce these types of antibodies as a response, so that response has to be attenuated, hence the switch to IgG4 (keep in mind, I am just speculating here). Alternatively such individuals are genetically predisposed to have very high response to some element in food irrespective if it mimics anything in our body or not, and still has to be attenuated as well. Let me know your thoughts
Spelt is an ancient graint I am corelating our adaptability to it in the evolution through the years and lack of cancers in the past Compared to the newly hybridised wheats and increase in morbidity of all kinds nowadays. How was gluten studedseparately in your study?
So is this why eggs cause my eczema to break out?
Maybe?
@Merogenomics I'm very allergic to nuts. Eggs confirmed as causing my eczema it went away after I stopped eating eggs. I recently added milk to my diet after discontinuing use of oat milk and I suspect that change has been causing me eye allergies. Still doing elimination test to be sure.
So many variables without specifics. How is the food produced? Where? With what? Is the soil healthy? What are they feeding the chickens? GMO feed? Pesticides? On and on and on. Studies are needed!
My daughter and I have Alpha Gal syndrome. Have you heard of that?
No have not heard about it, and of course you are right that there are tons of variables to consider but it seems like scientists are just peeking into this concept. We have a long way to go it seems
Coconut flesh/milk/butter with its long and short chain fatty acid's work as well as pro biotic's as food medicine,with zinc,,but like all food as medicine it's accumulative in the blood,requiring consuming every day for a few week's as the levels/balancing act take's place in the Bone's and blood.try chewing coconut for half an hour each day-no child would do it.cheese is an pure acid(bad for osteoporosis/pain)whilst yogurt is a pure alkaline which sooth's and nourishes gut/blood and Bone's/joint's inflammation/osteoporosis but no doctor's/governments have told people in the world for 60 year's/promoting cheese for bone deteriation/pain which is rong.,cheese is full of calcium but is also a pure acid for the bone's.fake margarine and butter has had long chain fatty acids removed,which most people lack,and can replace with coconut chew chew chew chew
Thanks for very interesting hints. Good thing I used coconut milk a lot in my cooking :)
Eggs from chickens fed with grains in mass production or biological eggs from pastured poultry which has more K2 in them? Those eggs are healthy and I eat them everyday together with raw milk products and fermented foods.
Yeah, you might be in the healthy spectrum of food :D
"We are what we eat."
Don't forget, we also eat 'junk light.

Right back at ya!
You got in trouble for videos? I wondered why I could not find anything current for quite a while. You must have gotten too close to the truth. Geez. Truth is contagious, and anything contagious needs to be locked down in our day, apparently. Welcome back.
What is sad is that I got in trouble for trying to debunk a conspiracy theory and got punished as if I was promoting it. Brainless bots :)
The food would not be a problem if they had stopped using pesticides everywhere
And other toxins, such as glyphosates, additives, etc.
it might help but not be 100%, plants are still bad as they have their own defense systems.
Not the food itself but the shit we do with it is the problem
I could agree with that although I think some food could always post some risk to some simply based to what we can react to
Humans are facultative carnivores and should be eating minimal or no plants period. Only wild/pasture/grass-fed meat and perhaps moderate animal products (eggs, dairy).
No, humans are still frugivorous herbivores with a special adaption to cooked foods.
@@carinaekstrom1 NO!

But are theese anti bodies good or bad for you......i asume theyre bad
Everyone is suggesting turmeric as a tonic and a detox and cancer cure,,,maybe it help's with cancer and pain on the same icg4 reduction level,but who knows
Maybe, plus black pepper to make it bioavailable
well maybe if you don't mind oxalates to build up in your body, I've never heard nor read any scientific info on turmeric having any healing qualities of any kind, again, just more BS folk myths.
I' ve learned some years ago, that this is...might be a sort of retarded response as a food
allergy..intolerance, even lectin response in the gut.So far I was astonished to hear about immunresponse but merely seen as being supposed cancerogenic
Thank you for your amazing infos🎉
I wouldn't think of carcinogenic as I don't think we have evidence that IgG4s cause cancer, but rather they might be bad combination along with cancer, and this might be for only specific cancers too. Difficult to know because the role of IgG4s in cancer is still not well understood I don't think
@Merogenomics sorry I thought you were talking about mRNA related aspects..I know about NutriGenomics and also recommendations of 50 years of the research of the D' Adamo's .from Connetticut
My firsthand knowledge about IgG 4 interactions and the gut are from a Germany lab nearby Frankfurt .The owner gave some lessions about this very thema, and sold special test kits.
So we're told by the "experts" to eat more cereal and eat only the egg whites !!!
lol, yeah right, experts?, no they are marketers pushing their garbage onto the people.

Have you looked at the downregulation of IGG2 Antibodies?? I don't have enough IGG2 antibodies now 🤔🤔
Go carnivor and eat tons of fat, the weight falls off, and the pain goes either completeiy away or the pain gets much better.
I heard many mentioned that switching their diet like that had huge benefits. So interesting
So stop eating dairy and eggs lol?
Everyone is different. Get tested so you know what YOUR body is sensitive to
@@Tasty4339 you don't need to get tested, just stop eating them for a month, then add them back and see what reactions you have.
Interesting study. Unfortunately our food supply has been so bastardized I don't think you could just look at food.
For instance with eggs we're not looking at what the chickens eat. Are the eggs from range fed chicken only or from grain-fed chickens.
Milk intake is down dramatically over the decades with increased allergies. What's the milk in the study whole milk or skim milk. What is the milk pasteurized or unpasteurized.
We've got to look at what our food eats for the root cause of problems along with modifications done to those foods that are now accepted practices from years past.
The Amish we're just raided as having the healthiest kids in the United States. They eat whole foods in restrict their kids on vaccines.
The Messiah tribes drink drink whole milk mix with blood have no Cancers and heart disease.
This study is full of holes. That need to be filled.
Think of this as a starting point as there are always limitations to any study. One hopes that science will be looking at this topic more frequently from now on
@Merogenomics yes, really enjoy your dissertations thanks for what you do.
Stop cooking the milk and give them raw milk it will heal them
