By Daniel Brouse Vitamin B3 / Niacin / Nicotinic Acid Attn: Long Haulers focus on supplementing with nicotinic acid. A research paper co-authored by Ade Wentzel found, “The SARS-CoV-2 hyperinflammatory response is associated with high mortality.” In essence, COVID-19 ‘eats’ the immune system’s NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and restricts your ability to make more. NAD+ […]

COVID, Vitamin D, Health, and Wellness
By Daniel Brouse Vitamin D Essentials Vitamin D helps regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in the body. These nutrients are needed to keep bones, teeth and muscles healthy.[1] Vitamin D is both a nutrient we eat and a hormone our bodies make. The active form of vitamin D tempers the damaging inflammatory response […]
COVID-19: Immunity, Antibodies, Memory T Cells and B Cells
by Daniel Brouse email: help@membrane.com Omicron Update January 4, 2022 The effects of antibodies produced by the immune system’s “memory B cells” against the Omicron variant of the coronavirus are weakened. After the body learns to recognize SARS-CoV-2, B cells generate fresh antibodies against the virus if there are not enough antibodies circulating in the […]
COVID-19 and Negative Feedback Loops
As more time passes and more information is gathered on the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, there is growing evidence that any infection from COVID-19 may cause chronic damage to your body. Negative Feedback Loops The more often your body suffers damage, than the more severe each additional exposure will become. After you recover from COVID, there […]
COVID-19 Long Haulers: SARS-CoV-2 Causes Dysfunctional Autoimmune Response
By Daniel Brouse Email: help@membrane.com Last Updated December 18, 2021 Long haulers syndrome is in part due to “an autoimmune response that makes you feel symptoms in waves, or due to stress, and anxiety that triggers your immune system.” — Daniel Brouse (August, 2020) My original description of long-COVID was, “It feels like my body […]
COVID-19 Testimonial
By Daniel Brouse help@membrane.com I’ve been reluctant to talk about my COVID experience for several reasons, but have decided — if my testimony can convince just 1 person to avoid contracting or spreading the disease, it will be worth it. I had COVID back at the end of January and the first weeks of February […]

Methane Emissions Soar to Record High
Methane is one of the most dangerous greenhouse gases… and, is part of an exponential negative feedback loop: Methane in the atmosphere causes the climate to warm A warmer climate causes permafrost to melt… Releasing more methane and CO2… Making the climate warmer… Melting more permafrost… Releasing more methane and CO2… Melting, more permafrost, etc., […]
COVID-19 Durability, Enhancement, Infection and Exposure?
I asked: have you seen any studies on COVID immunity durability and enhancement? No, but here is some material on the difficulty of testing for COVID infection and COVID exposure Article by lowe in science blogs: “from The Lancet on a large study in Spain. Testing tens of thousands of people across the country continues […]
The Real Mortality Rate of COVID-19
By Daniel Brouse, scientist and statistician July 7, 2020 The Mortality Rate for COVID-19 in the State of Pennyslvania is 13.68%. I grew weary of people trying to argue the mortality rate in the state of PA. I was being conservative and lazy… estimating it around 7.5% (deaths / cases = mortality rate). The science […]
