OK I looked up what is needed maybe in the pathways
http://www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway/map/map00140.html
"AND CLICKING on 1.14.15.6
Oxidoreductases
Acting on paired donors with incorporation of molecular oxygen
With a reduced iron-sulfur protein as one donor, and incorporation
of one atom of oxygen"so as well oxygen maybe I need iron-sulfur...there's that sulfur again!!!! (and iron)
OK so for sulfur I need TMG, NAC, NAG ??
I guess something like magnesium sulfate is different?? I have epsom salt baths but they always make me very tired after..actually usually drift in and out of sleep in the bath. Note sure if that's the sulfates or just the relaxation.
Lar mentioned sulfur stuff to me last year too re thyroid hormones.Another cholesterol path
http://www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway/map/map00120.html
needs that NADPH again and oxygen
"With NADH or NADPH as one donor, and incorporation of one atom of
oxygen"
I thought that CoQ10 (ubiquinone) should be somewhere around cholesterol too? as the drugs that inhibit cholesterol synthesis also stop CoQ10 synthesis? But I can't find the link there.Jan

(and iron)Oxygen is the second most reactive element of them all....more so than is chlorine (from electronegativity standpoint). Fire is an uncontrolled oxygenation chain reaction. Currently, the atmosphere contains about 17% oxygen. If it got up to 22%, it would be impossible to put out fires with water (itself burned hydrogen), as the exothermic reactions would not be cooled enough by the heat absorption capacity of water (specific heat), and the latent heat of vapourization.
The point is, our bodies work only because Mother Nature has learned how to slow fire down, to control it somewhat. Sulphur loves oxygen. Oxidative stress depletes sulphur compounds in the body.
> OK so for sulfur I need TMG, NAC, NAG ??
TMG remethylates one particular sulphur compound, homocysteine, but it is not a source of sulphur.
Common sulphur sources are methionine, SAMe, cysteine, taurine, creatine (a tripeptide with methionine). NAC is N-acetyl-cysteine, so it is a source. MSM too.
> I guess something like magnesium sulfate is different?? I have epsom salt baths but they always make me very tired after..actually usually drift in and out of sleep in the bath. Note sure if that's the sulfates or just the relaxation.
More likely the magnesium. It is taken in transcutaneously, though only slightly. Sulphates are not a good metabolic source of sulphur, as they're already fully oxidized (SO4--).

I've only ever seen models based on NMDA amplification. I have hyperalgesia and allodynia, but not disturbed thyroid function (at least, not diagnosed). Hyperalgesia and allodynia are often linked with chronic fatigue syndrome and PTSD. This is thought-provoking.

>
> > One simple test of adrenal stress is to try some licorice. Do not use DGL, though. That is De-Glycyrrhizinated Licorice.I hope you're still around to see this answer.
Licorice root has the effect of creating an illusion that the adrenal output is higher than it really is. It does so by increasing the half-life of cortisol. This could have two possible observable effects, if adrenal output was bad before the licorice. If adrenal output is unstable or fluctuating (what some call sputtering), licorice will stabilize both mood and energy somewhat. If adrenal output was stable but low, the energy and mood will gradually improve. If licorice makes you feel wired, jumpy, or anxious, then it's likely that there wasn't a problem with the adrenals to begin with. It takes a good four to six weeks of licorice use to determine the outcome.
> What would be the "something" that would be noticeable when taking licorice that would indicate the adrenal stress?

Get a B complex, and take it in addition to the B6, or instead of it altogether. You might find that additional niacinamide smoothes you out a bit.

> Your neighbour could be borderline hashimoto's because the early stages of hashimoto's a lot of the thyroid hormones are normal. Also in the early stages of hashimoto's stress hormones are increased, so as long as the adrenals hold out, energy levels might be OK for a while. Looking at great smokies thyroid test, there are levels of thyroid antibodies that are within the normal range - does your neighbour know her levels?
Another issue with Hashimoto's is the controversial idea that it can remit. Yet another is that it involves different tissues in different ways, i.e. peripheral conversion of thyroid hormone may be unaffected (no symptoms of thyroid deficiency) while at the same time central regulation is out of control, i.e. hypothalamus and pituitary fail to sense true thyroid hormone concentration.
Managing thyroid problems is art, not science, IMHO.

> re licorice..be careful I'm not sure exactly what it does..it does increase both cortisol and estrogen and ACTH?The ACTH decreases, if adrenal fatigue was present. It also disturbs testosterone production, which is important to both sexes. Testosterone feedback regulates leutenizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone, and prolactin. It all gets quite complicated.

Glycine may counteract the tendency to pseudoaldosteronism. Potassium loss in urine may be increased by licorice. Moderation, and only using it for relatively short periods, are important considerations.

I never fit the profile of someone with thyroid problems (I lean more towards symptoms of hyper though), but my symptoms line up exactly with those of adrenal fatigue. I never knew what to do with the high TSH info. My naturopathic dr said I was hypothyroid based on my TSH, and gave me bladderwrack (iodine source) which I never had the courage to take because I have never done well with iodine or thyroid hormones. Now I have hope that I am similar to cases 5&6 in the study whose TSH normalized when the adrenal function improved. That finally makes sense.

The optimal intake of vitamin D is about 4000 IU/day.

I've read it is not absorbed well and it's better to take the NAC and synthesise the glutatione in your body, but without one of the glutathione enzymes(I'm not sure if you mean an enzyme that helps make glut. or one that breaks it down actually).
Oral glutathione becomes rather expensive food. It does not survive the stomach. Sublingual glutathione avoids that degradation, I suppose, to the extent it is absorbed directly from the oral cavity.
The best way to increase glutathione is to supplement with whey protein powder. It's the most available source of the required amino acids.

> Something you mentioned in your post to me that I find interesting was "the body can make PEA from phenylalanine, via phenylalanine decarboxylase (magnesium + p5p)". Oddly enough, I was very deficient in both magnesium and B6 and I believe I must still be to some degree (I have symptoms again within a day or two of missing my supplements).
PEA ordinarily has an extremely short half-life, being mopped up by MAO-B. One of the modes of action of selegiline, a selective MAO-B inhibitor (at low doses) is that it protects PEA. Some of the mood effects of depression may be related to PEA deficiency. Both meat and chocolate also have fairly substantial amounts of magnesium in them.
> I am going to go out on a limb and ask you a question that may seem really dumb to you. Right now I am digging through my memory archives to place where I have heard "phenylalanine" a lot in the past. Is that in over-the-counter diet pills? (Sorry if I am way off.)
There's been lots of talk about DLPA, d-,l-pheylalanine, as a mood booster or energizer. It works synergistically with selegiline.

Well, at least it sounds like D would prevent damage caused by glutamates, huh?It's part of the puzzle, but sensitivity to glutamates is more likely to be related to deficiencies in taurine. Taurine is formed from sulphur-aminos, so taurine deficiency may indicate oxidative stress. Luckily, taurine is super inexpensive. I can counteract MSG problems (I'm really sensitive) with a small dose of taurine (1-2 grams).

There are a number of sulphydryl compounds used to chelate mercury for excretion. The problem is that there is blessed little mercury floating free in the blood at any one time, and these chelators are far more efficient at removing other cations than they are at removing mercury.
The best treatment for mercury exposure, chronic mercury exposure, is selenium. Selenium binds mercury irreversibly, totally and permanently inactivating it. In fact, a good part of mercury's toxic effects are due to disturbances in selenium chemistry. So, you need to replace the lost/damaged selenium, and provide a little extra to sacrifice to mercury. 200 mcg/day selenium, at least.

Hi Lar,
I read the links but didn't grasp much. You did mean 4000 and not 400 I presume which is way more than we've been recommended. I've always heard 4-800 IU per day.
Is there a preferred type? Right now I'm taking a A and D combo, from fish liver oil, of 10,000 and 400 respectively but I don't want to just take more of that, do I? And increase the Vit A by that much? I'm concerned about osteoporosis as I don't drink milk any more. I also take magnesium, boron, Vit. K and only a little calcium (because it makes me crazy!) with osteoporosis in mind. My mother has it, she's in her 70's.

No mercury in fish oils. Mercury binds to protein, and all protein is removed from fish oils of all types. PCBs and pesticides etc. may or may not be an issue. Those are fat soluble, and different brands have different amounts.
