Thanks John Paul. Is tudca as a supplement the same as udca?

And my wife is having a helluva time losing weight after having a bad case of covid early in the year. This looks promising on that front to rejumpstart her mitochondria/microbiome.

Thank you so much!

With your special research interests in the gut, this is quintessentially GUT WRENCHING material.

I just sent your Substack to a couple of East Coasters who are suffering now with COVID!

Thanks again John, and I think it's important that, just as you do, we include potential therapeutics with each deep dive, if applicable.

Quercetin is now on my take-daily list. Bioavailability is improved by the healthy biome that it contributes to, in a virtuous cycle:

John I'm posting this in a lot of places with the hopes of reaching people urgently.

Please read all the way to the end and review the 'consumptive interventions' planned in the c40 cities. You can search your country and city on the first data base/ website link. Learn about what a c40 city is. These organizations seem to link together. (The Most Important link at the below, is also downloaded as an attachment for your thorough consideration.) https://www.globalcovenantofmayors.org/our-cities/

https://www.c40.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/2270_C40_CBE_MainReport_250719.original.pdf

Every single city that is involved in this initiative the entire planet is listed. Do you know which Canadian cities are involved? Mississauga is. Toronto is. North Bay is. Edmonton is and a host of others. But do you know they have a target about how much meat you should eat in C40 Cities? (hint by 2030 NONE. Go through the tables in the link and attachment for yourself)

How many new clothes you can buy? hint: 3 a year is the aggressive target.

Each link is searchable. Read to the end. Consider closely the consumption mitigation or intervention strategies. Personal Auto ownership? Y Vins governed. Your food? decided.

Even the search terms are spooky; "our mayors" or "our cities"

GLOBAL COVENANT OF MAYORS FOR CLIMATE AND ENERGY

https://www.globalcovenantofmayors.org/our-cities/

search your city. Find out if its there. Notice anything about the cities missing. By the time you read and consider all of this, those are the cities you'll want to move to.

Has anyone heard of this? shouldn't we understand how they want to regulate the 'goods and services' consumed in their cities as it relates to climate change? This is also known as consumption mitigation and intervention strategies and involves food you eat/ energy/ clothes you're allowed to purchase.

(explore c40 website, you'll see what initiatives, which companies support this) As an aside how would the Strong Mayors Act recently passed fit in with this?

https://www.globalcovenantofmayors.org/our-cities/

search your city. Find out if it's there. But move to C40 the more aggressive brand to truly see what a C40 city is.

C40

https://www.c40.org/about-c40/

https://www.c40.org/news/statement-by-the-c40-cities-steering-committee/

The commitment of our 97 cities representing 700 million residents to the Leadership Standards demonstrates the resolve of the world’s mayors to deliver the urgent action needed to tackle the climate crisis. In this unprecedented moment in human history, we know that we must act without hesitation to save our planet and create a more equitable, prosperous, and healthy future for our children and grandchildren.

In the crucial years ahead, these Leadership Standards set us on a path to achieve a zero-carbon future, build meaningful and broad coalitions, and set a global model for cities around the world to follow suit. This work is grounded in the principles of the Global Green New Deal as the cornerstone of a green and just recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and the foundation of global efforts to address the climate emergency.

C40 Leadership Standards 2021-2024:

Plan. City has adopted a resilient and inclusive climate action plan aligned with the 1.5˚C ambition of the Paris Agreement, and updates it regularly;

Deliver. In 2024, city remains on track to deliver its climate action plan, contributing to increased resilience, equitable outcomes and halving C40’s overall emissions by 2030;

Mainstream. City uses the necessary financial, regulatory and other tools at their disposal to address the climate crisis and mainstreams their equitable climate targets into the most impactful city decision-making processes;

Innovate. City innovates and starts taking inclusive and resilient action to address emissions beyond the direct control of the city government, such as associated with goods and services consumed in their city;

Lead. Mayor and the city demonstrate global climate leadership and inspire others to act in support of the Paris Agreement.

These Leadership Standards will guide our collective action until at least 2024."

now take a look at this pdf: did you know that c40 wants you to have 3 new articles of clothing; look at the life of the car; how much meat by 2030 you can eat in a C40 city (0kg on the aggressive target- you've got to dig in and understand this is an agenda that has you on a leash. But who are the people that think you under their thumb to the point of food/car/flight/clothing consumption.. is theirs to control. Does it remind you of anything at all. What does it make you think of when you review this. Fedex likes and supports this. You can search which companies are involved in supporting this. Decide if they deserve your business. Is Post Media covering this?

https://www.c40.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/2270_C40_CBE_MainReport_250719.original.pdf

Look at the tables for 'consumptive interventions'; Table 6 for instance tells you that these c40 cities believe they can dictate how many flights you should be able to have by 2030; Table 6.6.1? how many people can own vehicles; There's a table for how many kg of meat you can eat in these c40 cities. Aggressive target? 0kg. 2030 is 7 years away. Do you have a kid? a grand kid? should they taste burgers? or no. It's their mitt year this year? or will you get them underwear.

Wow! Wonderful presentation. Thank you for the work. I think one of the big problems in the medical and pharm community is they think linearly (or just monetarily). Biological systems are linear. It’s amazing to me to see all of these relationships coming together. Thank you again.

Super stuff!! many thanks, and no doubt your findings are just spot on, i have noticed the gut issue in many people (unvaxed too, as well as vaxed ofcourse)....What is the UDCA course by the way? 1 tablet(300mg) after food daily for 28 days? Thank you for helping us..

P.S : just to add that astaxanthin might play some role in this area too...(recently i found some chinese covid protocol made in November 22 ,where Dr.Eglise recommended astaxanthin (new addition to her previous protocols) along with IVM/NAC/Quercetin/BSO with C, d3 and K2 and zinc.) ,Then did a pubmed search on astaxanthin and gut microbiota, seems Chinese Doctors are aware of all this .https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32810865/. (see the results)..

Thank you. I will

Thank you for this. I have always suffered from inflammatory bowel and my main symptom from covid, eventually contracted this summer, was bowel issues and I have definitely seen a resurgence of my IBS since Covid (interestingly it had become much more manageable during and post pregnancy). I’ve been trying to maintain keto diet, with intermittent fasting, and this always helps. I take quercetin along with D3 and K2 and magnesium. Also considering hesperidin.
