8:13 I really wanted to know “specifically” what happened to the waste but she decided to explain what a microphage was instead… 6:21 I was also very curious about the impact of anxiety and stress on the immune system, but now I only know that it may cause inflammation – how? What impact does this type of inflammation have on the immune system? 12:26 Does treating the symptoms (such as a fever) without prescriptions prolong recovery? I don’t want to pump my kids full of drugs every time they are sick, but I also don’t want them to be miserable either…

Immunologist here.
1. The waste is destroyed by enzymmes and recycled if they are made of organic matter, like protein. In fact this process is important for immunological memory acquisition. The stuff macrophages cannot destroy or are too large are perpetually enclosed by macrophages and isolated and with can with time calcify. Good example of this last processes are tattoos and calcified fetuses (lithopaedion)
FJCD
January 17, 2023 at 11:05 pm
2. The endocrine system and the immune system are tightly correlated, anxiety changes the amounts of certain hormones that have a direct impact on the immune system readiness, one of this hormones, cortisol has a lot of effects on the immune system and during stress or depression can increase for example exacerbating autoimmune disease and the opposite happens during depression.

The chicken soup thing is interesting, because when I caught cold or flu, I had this sudden craving for any hot soup, be it Veggie soups or even instant noodle soups (which is the opposite of healthy lol). Maybe it’s just the body wanting anything warm to enter the system, idk?

January 17, 2023 at 11:33 pm
I think with chicken soup, it’s definitely a helpful thing but not a medicine. You get dehydrated when sick, so the water and salt in the soup helps with that. And it’s a comfort thing. You’re stressed when you’re sick, so something comforting can relax you and make recovery easier

Given macrophages live in tissue, then I assume macrophage waste goes to the same place as the surrounding tissue’s cellular waste: it gets transported by the blood to the kidneys.

Lost total respect for you when you talked about natural remedies. Yes, many are bogus. But there are also several that have been proven. The reason for no data and peer reviews comes down to money. Big pharma has been repeatedly proven to pay for false studies or hide things that would make their medicines look bad and potential natural cures look good. Chiropractic care for example. Started out as a fake science. But recent studies by blue cross blue shield have shown significant impacts of proper chiropractic care. And I had many “real” doctors misdiagnose me or say I was lying, until a chiropractor figured out my migraines. I didn’t believe him. I’m now 3 years without a single migraine. I had 5 a month minimum for 8 years. So long story short, you aren’t very intelligent if you discredit things without admitting science and business lies all the time

Natural remedies can be empirically tested medicines. They aren’t mutually exclusive. Things like fruit for vitamin c deficiencies, medical marijuana for pain and perhaps with all the new psychiatric research around psychedelics, magic mushrooms for treatment resistant depression and ptsd.

Ground hemp seed. 3 tablespoons in water every morning.
Minimally processed. Complete protein that’s readily digestible. *High* mineral content including zinc. A+ lipid profile, for quality building blocks for your cell walls. High fiber, which when taken daily provides a consistent food source for some of the more beneficial lineages in your gut biome, an important part of your immune strength.
Ground hemp seed is a secret immune powerhouse and it’s a clean natural food safe to have every day

Tonsils are the devil. Had mine removed at 28 and it changed my life. Got rid of my halitosis (thanks tonsiliths) and got rid of my sleep apnea. School would have been so different if I had them removed as a kid.
Edit: also, chicken noodle soup is good for colds because of the massive amount of electrolytes, which you are most likely needing to replenish due to the sickness.

This is misleading. The awnser should be more precise. Saying “bacteria are good for your immune system” is not a precise awnser.
The tonsil awnser was factually incorrect. “chicken soup has not been empirically tested” except all of its components have been tested, so you could extrapolate an awnser, keywords: warm, fluid, nutrition. You awnsered the covid question but you suggested that the immune memory for covid lasts long, which it doesn’t (most likely that was the point of the question).

When I was a kid I had bad IBS. I would have spats of not being able to keep down food. Chicken soup was one of the few things I could eat without throwing up. So, outside of just containing basic good nutrients, I’d say it’s also something that is easy to digest (vs say a chicken breast in a salad with some light dressing). Also, it tastes so good when done right, it’s hard to not feel psychologically better 🙂.

I disagree, Fever is a potent weapon for cold. Cold viruses have very specific environment requirements for replication. If you increase the temperature and relative humidity in the upper respiratory tract to fever condition by mouth breathing and blocking the nose, viruses will be killed off. It takes several hours.

The only thing remarkable about it is that this nonsense continues to be spouted, to this day. Clean your home’s and yourself people. The hygiene hypothesis was a terrible case of confusing correlation with causation.

Ashley Waner
January 19, 2023 at 6:42 pm
She is fantastic at explaining her answers to these questions. One question I wish that would have come up is, is being sick 1 or 2 times a year show that your immune system is active and healthy? Because I have read that it is showing that you have a healthy immune system. I think the article I read quoted “It’s like your body getting a tune up every year when you are sick at least 1 or 2 times a year during the flu and cold seasons.” Wanted to know if that was actually true.

I had severe tonsillitis when I was a kid and was unable to eat solid foods for about 3 weeks. It actually ended up triggering the OCD I’ve now dealt with ever since. I can totally understand why people were encouraged to remove their children’s tonsils if they saw other kids end up with illnesses like strep that really impacted quality of life. I didn’t end up getting mine removed, but getting tonsilitis was a horrible experience.

The hygiene hypothesis is real. In my house growing up, we were hygienic but definitely not overly-hygienic or germaphobes. In fact, my parents had a disabled child they were overwhelmed with so my house was arguably 10% less clean than the average clean house. But now I’m 31 and have been sick maybe 5 times since I was 10, and it’s always been a quick flu or cold I get over quickly.

Interestingly, the Covid-19-related hospitalizations would’ve also decreased without a vaccine due to natural immunity. And in fact, natural immunity was part of the reason because many people got Covid and were not vaccinated. But that’s the point of an honest and apolitical vaccine: immunity, the same immunity one gets naturally by getting the virus. Those cells that are programmed to make antibodies–you know, the cells that live a long time and really protect you–are made with natural immunity, too. The argument that the extremely-rushed vaccine is the reason for decreased hospitalizations is a fallacy. Correlation does not prove causation, unless there’s money and power to be had.

Adding my 2 cents on chicken soup… It’s not that it cures an illness, but rather sustains you through it. Water, fats, salt, vitamins…in an easily digestible form. You need them all to heal… Like how lemon/honey ‘tea’ is good for a sore throat… it doesn’t heal, but allows you too without the pain…which is why you find it in lozenges…Allowance to heal is just as important as the healing itself…

Also, she leaves out the reason WHY big studies aren’t usually done on natural/traditional remedies…and that’s because of funding. If there is no money to be made, there is little funding to study. This smugness is untoward in a country with such awful health outcomes.

It’s crazy how Americans can’t understand what ‘auto-inmune’ is. Most Europeans and bilingual individuals know how to find the root of a word and understand it better without even having to look up the meaning.

Imperially tested. ROFL. My background is nuclear, EE, ME, CS I can’t count the amount of times that term has bit scientist in the rear. Which is probably why their is so much research currently into old remedies and natural remedies they are finding in places like jungles and other habitats. She sounds like she works for big pharma.
Lets look at it a simpler way. I was stuck in the hospital with an intestinal issue. What did they feed me the entire time chicken broth. Why because it was light enough to not cause more damage and could provide the nutrients needed to support me. That last part is the real aspect. Eating health supports the immune system in and of itself. So for no other reason a good chicken soup will give your body energy and nutrition it needs to fight. That said there things your body can’t fight and only medication will.

Goodness sake. Please don’t promote the use of antibiotics like this … Using antibiotics for a common flu is a very bad idea ……. every time you use antibiotics you create the risk at making the bacteria resistant to the antibiotics.
If really needed, use them. But for 99,99% of the people with flu it’s a very dumb and irresponsible idea.

3:45 – maybe take about 10-20 seconds to describe how maybe the flavours and so on might get us a bit excited and help us feel better in an emotional sense (probable scenario in many instances I’d argue), maybe also discuss the point of nutrition… so it’s like a dog being fed bland rice & chicken to give nutrition & still not inflame anything specific to give our healing bodies resources. Maybe also as natural remedies consider vitamins such a D – which I’m unsure if it has been overturned, was accounted for being far more important than Vitamin C in speeding a recovery up when being sick… Vitamin C though is recycled in the body fairly well, but needs replenishing here and there and so C when you are sick is a good idea every day or two… and it also helps with cell proliferation (tissue damage healing).

Especially in times of pandemics and climate change, it’s really amazing how few people ever even try to go vegetarian (or vegan) for a day, let alone a week, or let alone trying it enough to be able to compare for themselves any noticeable benefits they might have. For something so important for our health, as well as for empathy and for the environment, it’s just amazing…
Plant-based foods are the #RocketFuelOfFood. Three great reasons to #SwitchToVegan / Vegetarian:
1) Health
2) Empathy
3) Environment
Reasons against:
1) Habit / tradition?
2) Apathy?

it sounds like the Immunologist has a speech defect and cannot pronounce “s” sound properly. but at minute 6.10 – 6.20 it is clear that she does not have any defect. she speaks clearly. it’s the recording quality that is lacking.

most of the answers were fairly solid… the biggest thing I didn’t like was the obvious bias to excessive medication. Most doctors, as least here in the USA (I don’t know about elsewhere), are way to quick to throw medicine at anything and everything.
Vaccinations are important. But, no one who isn’t immune compromised needs medication for a common cold. A common fever doesn’t need medication.
Also, the answer to the chicken soup question. Come on, she could have noted proper hydration and a well balance meal can help the body fight any simple cold or minor infection. Chicken soup could help but not as a medication. You should feed a cold and feed a fever; having proper nutrition always helps.

Please somebody answer me. Better a doctor or a surgeon.
After I got an ACL surgery on my knee, I had to constantly ice it to reduce the inflammation. My uncle is a surgeon, he told me that inflammation is good and it means the body is fighting off pathogens and that I shouldn’t be icing so much and should let the body heal itself. So who is right? My surgeon who told me icing is important or my uncle?

It’s easier to think of Viruses, as ‘alien’ or ‘robotic’ sort of objects or creatures.
They reprogram cells by hijacking them, they don’t have other function than to replicate and reprogramming cells that it infects.
They ‘mutate’, which for a robot or an alien as a concept, may be a bit strange, which means they are very unstable, and are looking to infect to ‘stabilize’ something in it’s existence?
There are millions of viruses, bacteria, etc. on Earth and in space. There is no singular ‘origin’ of them, unless you wanna head down the religious/spiritual route, on what you considered to be a ‘god’ is a entity that spawns these ‘manipulative’ “nano-machines” in a sense.

I’ve heard chicken soup is a staple because it often has vegetables, protein, and salt and fluids, all of which help replenish minerals and vitamins lost when you’re ill/feverish/vomiting etc.

I’m sorry, but that answer to the chicken soup question really left something to be desired.

She’s an immunologist, but believes this strongly in the hypothesis that we should be more dirty? We’re not TOO CLEAN – we use too much preservatives in food and cosmetics, which kills of some of the good bacteria! Not washing our hanfs won’t make us healthier, but eating RAW vegetables and fruit, which have good organisms inside, DOES. There’s VERY little evidense that getting more than normal pathogens or parasites is good for us, and there’s a reason it has been called a HYPOTHESIS for decades 🙄 When it comes to allergies and immune disorders, there are many OTHER things that explain those, other than “we’re too clean”, which isn’t a direct cause, but a correlation

On the chicken soup matter, it does however provide fluids and protein and proteins fuel the body with aminoacids for antibody production, which antibodies are proteins. It won’t cure you but it will support your body during the immune response 😉

I think with chicken soup, it’s definitely a helpful thing but not a medicine. You get dehydrated when sick, so the water and salt in the soup helps with that. And it’s a comfort thing. You’re stressed when you’re sick, so something comforting can relax you and make recovery easier

When you are stressed
Our Adrenal Gland (specifically the cortex of it) respond to this stress with a secretion process of a hormone called Cortisol (also other hormones but basically this one) which is called the stress hormone, and actually have an anti inflammatory feature which leads to a more suppressed immune system leading to more infections and diseases

100% Errno
January 25, 2023 at 1:38 pm
Prolonged high cortisol increases inflammation in a way similar to insuline resistance causing elevated blood sugar levels. Cortisol in a balanced endocrine body reduces inflammation (just like how man-made corticosteroids reduce inflammation). Cortisol goes down means inflammation goes up.
