Long-COVID: Elevated Cytokines and Low Iron
By Daniel Brouse The study, titled “Iron Dysregulation and Inflammatory Stress Erythropoiesis Associated with Long-Term Outcome of COVID-19,” reveals that Long-COVID is linked to elevated levels of C-reactive protein and prolonged elevation of cytokines compared to healthy controls. The research indicates that the duration of inflammation and the regulation of low iron levels after acute […]

COVID: Excess Deaths and Quality of Life
by Daniel Brouse December 14, 2023 Long-COVID, or post-infection COVID, appears to affect the majority of the population. For individuals that “recover” from COVID-19, they can expect a decreased quality of life and a premature death. Decrease in Quality of Life Known chronic conditions resulting from a COVID infection include: Permanent Organ Damage, Persistent SARS-CoV-2 […]

COVID: Insulin Reduction, Diabetes, High Cholesterol, Heart Disease and Stroke
by Daniel Brouse March 11, 2023 Post-COVID patients are at an increased risk of developing or exacerbating diabetes. In addition, the American Heart Association (AHA) states that diabetes often lowers HDL (good) cholesterol levels and raises triglycerides and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels. Both blood sugar and cholesterol increase the risk for heart disease and stroke. […]

COVID-19: Increased Risk of Autoimmune Diseases
by Daniel Brouse Not only is COVID-19 known to cause immune system disorders, post-COVID also increases the risk of autoimmune disease. There are multiple ways COVID has been shown to weaken the immune system (Immunocompromised) including: Destruction of Good Gut Bacteria Resulting in a Compromised Immune System, Dysfunctional Kynurenine Pathway, Down Regulating NAD+, Up Regulating IDO, […]
