Melanotan 2 is my preference for jet lag and anecdotally ( for what its worth !) I took my brand new 1-MNA for most recent potential jet lag and noticed it worked very well.
I instruct the patient to rub the injection site to disperse the peptide and I provide a anti-histamine tablet to be taken immediately in the rare instance of flushing / hives / palpitations that I have very occasionally seen with CJC.
I would consider a fungal or mold element to her chronic rhinitis and sinus congestion with headaches with the resulting chronic inflammation contributing to her food allergy profile ( I read somewhere that 30% of sinus infection is actually candida, which is made worse by the standard antibiotic and steroid regimens). A candida antibody serum profile and a mycotoxin urine test could help or consider treating empirically with:
- VIP Peptide Spray – to cover mold and candida
- Given how chronic her case is cover with Biocidin and Glutathione – for possible herxheimer reaction that can result from the clearing of candida spores and or mycotoxin
- Larazotide / BPC / KPV orally – for treatment of likely leaky gut and food allergies.
- oral anti-fungal treatment if necessary ( for positive candida IgA )
Many women in their 30s are plagued with progesterone deficiency causing dysmennorhea / PMS, insulin resistance causing weight gain, hypothyroidism causing lethargy, estrogen dominance causing weight gain , mood disturbance and increased cancer risk as well as testosterone deficiency ( often exacerbated by an OCP) causing mood disorder and low libido. BHRT offers these women easy and safe solutions when administered at physiologic levels. When a deficiency is detected it should be corrected regardless of the age of the patient. When done properly BHRT will treat, preserve or improve fertility and reduce cancer risk rather then contribute to it ( as on OCP may).
Given that so many young women are offered an OCP ( synthetic estrogen and progesterone) as a blanket solution to all hormone complaints ( even when a contraceptive is not required) and the known increased cardiovascular risk, cancer risk and the concerning under-appreciated suggestions of ‘The Dirty T-shirt Studies”: possibly choosing the “wrong” mate and resulting increased divorce rate: BHRT is most likely the safer, better and kinder alternative.
Hi Anne
In addition to the plasmologen and peptide protocols discussed here I suggest testing serum for lithium deficiency on a panel geared at finding deficiency ( not toxicity like most). One such panel is Quicksilver Heavy Metals Panel. Treatment for any level less than 70 th centile on the panel would be with trace lithium orotate at a trace (nutritional) dose of 5 – 20 mg. The latest on the ongoing debate in the literature for lithium and ALS is the 9/2022 study below and for an excellent overview including ALS by the lithium researcher and psychiatrist James Greenblatt MD: Nutritional Lithium The Cinderella Story: The Untold Tale of a Mineral That Transforms Lives and Heals the Brain. Trace lithium is a remarkable mood enhancer, nootropic and telomere extender as well and was the feature ingredient of 7-UP ( lithium’s atomic weight is 6.9) until the 50s when it was removed due to the stigma of mental health.
All the very best,
Lauren
