These included Advil, Tylenol, diclofenac (an anti-inflammatory to treat arthritis), furosemide (for high blood pressure), metformin (for high sugar levels linked to diabetes), atorvastatin (to help lower cholesterol and fats in the blood), tramadol (a stronger pain medication post-surgery), temazepam (used to treat sleeping problems), and pseudoephedrine (a decongestant). Are these or other drugs also causing lowered immune defenses against chronic viruses, which you have confirmed are the cause of 85% of chronic diseases? Hanbiao Chen, Sylvia A. Sapula, John Turnidge, Henrietta Venter. The effect of commonly used non-antibiotic medications on antimicrobial resistance development in Escherichia coli. npj Antimicrobials and Resistance, 2025; 3 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s44259-025-00144-w.ClosedNicola asked 2 days ago • Extraterrestrial Corruption of Human Institutions17 views0 answers0 votesWas the research, including the clinical data, for the paper we asked you about, “Acute inflammatory response via neutrophil activation protects against development of chronic pain,” valid and not corrupted by the interlopers to malign seemingly useful common painkillers? Given your warnings that clinical research cannot always be trusted, we just want to be sure. What is most important for us to know?ClosedNicola asked 2 days ago • Extraterrestrial Corruption of Human Institutions15 views0 answers0 votesThe phenomena seem quite striking which are reported in the paper, “Acute inflammatory response via neutrophil activation protects against development of chronic pain,” by Marc Parisien et al. Sci Transl Med. 2022 May 11; 14(644). These authors showed in animal models that painkillers like corticosteroids and NSAIDs, but not analgesics like morphine or lidocaine which lack anti-inflammatory effects, end up prolonging pain, because without neutrophil activation being allowed to happen as part of an immune response, acute pain may become chronic. A clinical study confirmed that among patients whose lower back pain had become chronic, it was exclusively those who had been treated with NSAIDS who went on to develop neuropathy. Was this a valid study with broad implications about the unexpected downside of anti-inflammatory medication for moderating pain? What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 days ago • Extraterrestrial Corruption of Human Institutions15 views0 answers0 votesI shudder when I consider I spent years striving to develop inhibitors of neutrophil activation as therapeutics for autoimmune disease. Was that not only misguided, but a sinister consequence of interloper manipulation to encourage the field of immunopharmacology, knowing it could make things worse? What can Creator tell us about the medical implications for using anti-inflammatories?ClosedNicola asked 2 days ago • Extraterrestrial Corruption of Human Institutions20 views0 answers0 votesWhat percent of cases of plantar fasciitis are caused by a chronic virus?ClosedNicola asked 12 months ago • Extraterrestrial Interlopers198 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “Some physicians deem that plantar fasciitis is a mechanical problem from the toe box being constricted from a person wearing improper shoes. This constriction reduces circulation to the foot where degradation of the tissue happens which causes heel pain. Others say it’s too much pressure on the heel from overuse, being overweight, or improper shoe arch which causes inflammation and thus heel pain. This is a problem I’ve suffered for years. Is this condition caused by a virus or something else?”ClosedNicola asked 12 months ago • Extraterrestrial Interlopers195 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “What can help alleviate the tremendous pain from my plantar fasciitis? I’ve tried cortisone shots, medication, orthotics, massage, yoga, ice, sound waves, stretching, and wider shoes, to no avail.”ClosedNicola asked 12 months ago • Extraterrestrial Interlopers220 views0 answers0 votesConolidine is one of 64 powerful indole alkaloids found inside the ancient plant Tabernaemontana divaricata or more commonly known as “crepe jasmine.” Historically, this plant has been used since ancient times as a powerful pain reliever and is a staple in Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Thai medicine. Studies have confirmed that conolidine is nearly as potent as morphine in alleviating inflammatory and acute pain but is non-addicting, with few, if any, side effects. Is the indole alkaloid plant extract from GDR Labs modified to greatly increase oral bioavailability of conolidine as they claim?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Healing Modalities240 views0 answers0 votesDoes the mixture of many indole alkaloids extracted together from the plant of origin confer any benefits compared to purified conolidine alone?

In addition to a group of phytonutrients and a group of amino acids, it has several ingredients claimed to promote production of human growth hormone (HGH). What are the benefits of supplemental HGH and will this product be effective enough to be useful for weight loss?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Healing Modalities353 views0 answers0 votesWhat are other benefits of human growth hormone, particularly in older adults not known to have pituitary insufficiency?
