Behavior such as increased confusion, hallucinations, agitation, dizziness, falls and poor motor skills are often mistaken for early stages of dementia, but all can be caused by a UTI.” Also called delirium, this rapid worsening of the mental state is more common than you’d think. It’s found in nearly 30% of older folks with UTIs.” Are these cases all from bacterial infections or are those people with UTIs showing dementia symptoms a subset with viral infections, either alone or along with bacterial infection as well?ClosedNicola asked 4 days ago • Extraterrestrial Interlopers30 views0 answers0 votesA 2018 study estimated that infection triggers roughly half of all cases of delirium in seniors. As for the reason why, scientists suspect a UTI triggers inflammation that can disrupt how our neurons function. And UTIs are the second-most-common type of infection in adults aged 65 and over at hospitals and community-living centers (with lung infections ranked No. 1). What is Creator’s perspective about the frequency of viral vs. bacterial causation?ClosedNicola asked 4 days ago • Extraterrestrial Interlopers29 views0 answers0 votesIs the Kuafly supplement containing 50 mg Lutein, 30 mg Astaxanthin, 30 mg Zeaxanthin, 30 mg Saffron, 30 mg Ashwagandha, 50 mg Palmitoylethanolamide along with anthocyanins, vitamins A, C, and E and 8 mg CoQ10, a safe and high-quality source of these nutraceuticals for eye health? Would there be adequate bioavailability as there does not seem to be an adjunct for absorption like BioPerine?ClosedNicola asked 4 days ago • Healing Modalities23 views0 answers0 votesHow would you rank the Kuafly supplement among the Advanced Vision Formula, OcuXanthin, NutraVision, Vision Essentials Ultra, and AREDS2 for helping vision problems like macular degeneration and cataracts?ClosedNicola asked 4 days ago • Healing Modalities20 views0 answers0 votesOf the five supplements for helping vision, to economize is it sufficient in most cases to use the top two supplements, Advanced Vision Formula and OcuXanthin, or can it be very important to have the top three by including Nutra Vision?ClosedNicola asked 2 weeks ago • Healing Modalities71 views0 answers0 votesCan the OcuXanthin be dropped as three of its ingredients are already in the top-ranked supplement, and inexpensive hyaluronic acid can replace its single unique ingredient?ClosedNicola asked 2 weeks ago • Healing Modalities48 views0 answers0 votesA supplement called Nutra Vision is being offered through Primal Force, and they list its ingredients: 100 mg of bilberry for better night vision, sharper focus and superior protection from free radical damage.

It lacks the Resveratrol in the Zebora supplement I take currently, but would it be preferable to have this more bioavailable ubiquinol instead of the ubiquinone?ClosedNicola asked 2 weeks ago • Healing Modalities37 views0 answers0 votesI just saw a review of recent studies showing saffron having equal benefit to prescription antidepressants and with less side effects. Were those studies valid and reflecting an achievable and reliable benefit that has merit? What is most important for us to know?ClosedNicola asked 2 weeks ago • Healing Modalities74 views0 answers0 votesYou have told us that taking 2,000 IU of vitamin D3 is safe and very helpful, because the Recommended Daily Allowance, as with many essential nutrients, is way too low. I have seen doctor recommendations that say when health issues are present it is meaningful and safe to take as much as 10,000 IU of vitamin D3. I have been taking 5,000 IU twice a day. Is that safe and useful for me and others? What is most important for us to know?ClosedNicola asked 2 weeks ago • Healing Modalities42 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “Magnesium Chloride and Magnesium Glycinate are both forms of magnesium supplements that are commonly used to support overall health and well-being. However, there are some key differences between the two. Magnesium Chloride is a combination of magnesium and chlorine, and is often used for its ability to help with muscle function and relaxation. On the other hand, Magnesium Glycinate is a combination of magnesium and the amino acid glycine, and is known for its high bioavailability and ability to support relaxation and stress relief. While both forms of magnesium can be beneficial, Magnesium Glycinate may be preferred by some individuals due to its gentle and easily absorbed nature. Which one of them does Creator suggest is the better choice, or is a combination of the two overall better, or is that depending on the individual?”ClosedNicola asked 3 months ago • Healing Modalities159 views0 answers0 votesAdvanced Vision Formula from Advanced Bionutritionals is promoted as containing astaxanthin, discovered by Johns Hopkins researchers to be able to reach eye tissues despite the blood-retinal barrier, which excludes many substances, much like the blood-brain barrier. This is especially valuable because astaxanthin has 10 times higher potency than related antioxidants. The supplement contains 15 nutraceuticals: 1,126 mcg Vitamin A (as mixed carotenoids from D. salina providing zeaxanthin, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, beta-carotene, and alpha-carotene); 240 mg Vitamin C; 15 mg Zinc picolinate; 300 mg Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex; 120 mg Bilberry fruit extract; 120 mg Ginkgo leaf extract: 50 mg Grape seed extract; 250 mg Taurine; 200 mg N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine; 50 mg Alpha Lipoic Acid; 10 mg Lutein; 3 mg Zeaxanthin; 4 mg Astaxanthin; 250 mg Citicoline; and 400 mg Beta Glucan.
