My approach to fixing dysautonomia post-COVID/ mRNA shots🧵 Targeting the CHOLINERGIC system with 3 therapeutic agents Autonomic nervous system dysfunction is extremely common in this cohort - especially after mRNA. 4 years on - A lot of people are still sick, and dysautonomia can can account for many (if not all) of the symptoms
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Spike protein binds nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and triggers degeneration of cholinergic neurons Spike also impairs the production of acetylcholine in said neurons. Without acetycholine, the nervous system begins to malfunction
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
This cholinergic deficit is thought to play major roles in the cognitive impairment, memory loss, and widespread symptoms
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
One of the body's main tools for calming inflammation is via the vagus nerve... Which also requires acetylcholine. This is called the "cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway", and when it falters, the body is faced with unrelenting systemic inflammation
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Studies have shown substantial overlap in the pathophysiological mechanisms of COVID-19/vaccine injury and... Alzheimer's Disease & Parkinsons Both of which involve impairment of the cholinergic system Take home: spike protein leads to neurodegeneration
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Therapeutic agent #1: NICOTINE Most probably know of it's use in long COVID. It's old news. Fortunately, due to high affinity with nicotinic ACh receptors, exogenous nicotine can displace spike protein Nicotine essentially "mimics" acetylcholine. In doing so, it restores cholinergic output
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Just so you know, this is a brief summary of a lecture I am giving in Florida at a conference on December 13-15th If your in the area, you can check it out here: https://www.qntacademy.com/quantum-leap-1
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
It is no coincidence that smoking is considered substantially protective against parkinson's disease. Nicotine also has great utility in Alzheimer's disease https://t.co/iMQsEylp2U
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
The second therapeutic agent approaches the problem from a different angle: Stimulating production of acetylcholine within the neuron itself. Enter... Thiamine (Vitamin B1) In many respects, thiamine is THE most important nutrient for the cholinergic system https://t.co/D2z6Ie1gc2
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Thiamine availability tracks closely with acetycholine production in neurons Thiamine is needed to make the raw material But aside from its metabolic role, thiamine is also involved in the release and utilization of ACh by neurons https://t.co/RcTH3j70Sf
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
High dose thiamine has put some patients with Parkinson's Disease into clinical remission, and is currently being trialled in Alzheimer's disease https://t.co/u98SplvFKw
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
I run a group on FB with over 11,000 members. Many of them reversed long-COVID/post vaccine dysautonomia after my protocols which employ thiamine derivatives in high doses Thiamine is my number 1 go-to therapy for ANY dysautonomia https://t.co/Fwj04YF47I
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
The third intervention approaches the problem from yet another angle: Cleaning up the mess caused by chronic neuroinflammation Therapeutic agent #3 : Plasmalogens https://t.co/47KuFpW3PR
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
In simple terms, plasmalogens are a specific type of lipid found in high concentrations in cell membrane They can be depleted during states of inflammation. They are being studied Alzheimer's disease and cognitive impairment https://t.co/tUGTkfAUMa
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
One theory states that under conditions of cholinergic impairment, cells may "autocanabilize" their own choline-plasmalogens to replenish choline https://t.co/d85KNlBhN1
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
One thing is for sure... Working via several different mechanisms, they can work wonders in any condition characterized by neuroinflammation. https://t.co/XjiylyOOJ5
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
In conclusion, this was a summary of my presentation on 3 therapeutic agents which can help to restore nervous system function in people suffering from post-COVID/vaccine dysautonomia Rough dosage: Thiamine (depending on the form used): HCL form - 500-2000mg TTFD - 200-500mg Benfotiamine - 1,200-2000mg Nicotine: It varies, but anywhere from 5mg-21mg patches, daily Plasmalogens: Also varies on the form. Most people I know use marine-derived plasmalogens as low as 1-2mg per day. Other companies advocate for plasmalogen precursors, but have no experience with this so can't comment.

Nicotine is an alkaloid derived from tobacco After entry into the blood, it is broken down into several different metabolites... The primary bioactive metabolite is called cotinine, although others are currently being studied
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Acetylcholine: In the brain, nicotine essentially "mimics" the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) It does this through binding with 7-a-nicotinic acetylcholine receptors Nicotine also upregulates these receptors Recent evidence suggest nicotine may also inhibit acetylcholinesterase, the enzyme responsible for breaking down ACh, in the brain. The result is increased cholinergic neurotransmission in the nervous system, which is thought to be one of the ways by which nicotine enhances memory and learning.
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
This has downstream effects on numerous other neurotransmitter systems including: - Dopamine - Serotonin - Glutamate - GABA
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Acetylcholine & cognitive impairment/Alzheimer's: Abundant evidence suggests a cholinergic deficit in the CNS is one of the drivers of MCI/Alzheimer's (AD) One study found subcutaneous nicotine to improve: "primary and secondary cognitive measures of attention, memory, and mental processing" Another study found inverse association between AD and smoking: "A statistically significant inverse association between smoking and Alzheimer's disease was observed at all levels of analysis, with a trend towards decreasing risk with increasing consumption"
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Cognitive benefits: "1. Nicotine improves attention in a wide variety of tasks in healthy volunteers. 2. Nicotine improves immediate and longer term memory in healthy volunteers. 3. Nicotine improves attention in patients with probable Alzheimer's Disease. 4. While some of the memory effects of nicotine may be due to enhanced attention, others seem to be the result of improved consolidation as shown by post-trial dosing." https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/027858469290069Q
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Nicotine: An Anti-inflammatory Molecule The nicotine : acetylcholine interaction extends beyond cognitive benefits Acetycholine is one of the primary tools used by the body to suppress inflammation and immune-hyperactivation In this way, it can “switch off” an overactive immune system It does this through a network of neuronal connections known as the "cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway", which operates through the vagus nerve Stimulating this pathway via different means has yielded promising results in a variety of chronic inflammatory diseases "Nicotine stimulation plays a key role in suppressing inflammatory cytokine production - Can significantly down-regulate and delay inflammatory and autoimmune responses in the central nervous system - Could further attenuate neuro-inflammation"
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Anti-inflammatory effects pt.2 The following paper discusses anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory effects of nicotine at length. Read it and you will see the "anti" far outweighs the "pro" "Of all the diseases summarized here concerning systemic inflammation, especially in sepsis and endotoxemia, nicotine exerted the most pharmaceutical effect and significantly improved the survival. Next, nicotine is also a potential candidate for treating ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, multiple sclerosis, and myocarditis;" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8895249/

Protection against endotoxin: "In this model of abbreviated inflammation, nicotine exposure attenuates the febrile response to LPS and promotes a more prominent anti-inflammatory phenotype."
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Dopamine: Nicotine stimulates the release of dopamine in the midbrain and prefrontal cortex Protects dopaminergic neurons from degeneration. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6018192/

This protection extends to Parkinson’s disease. Smokers are vastly less likely to develop Parkinson’s. Even exposure to secondhand smoke drastically reduces the chances. “The link between smoking and a lower risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the strongest environmental or lifestyle associations in neuroepidemiology. Growing evidence supports the hypothesis that the association is based on a neuroprotective effect of smoking on PD” https://movementdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/mds.29707

Neuroprotection / anti-excitotoxic: Nicotine exerts neuroprotective effects through reducing glutamate excitotoxicity in several regions of the brain, including the hippocampus. This may help to explain positive neuropsychiatric benefits in conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, ADHD and anxiety https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7717967/

Neurogenesis, NAD+ and Anti-Aging: “F-FDG PET imaging revealed that nicotine is also capable of efficiently inhibiting glucose hypermetabolism in aging male mice. Additionally, nicotine ameliorated cellular energy metabolism disorders and deferred age-related deterioration and cognitive decline by stimulating neurogenesis, inhibiting neuroinflammation, and protecting organs from oxidative stress and telomere shortening. Collectively, these findings provide evidence for a mechanism by which low-dose nicotine can activate NAD+ salvage pathways and improve age-related symptoms.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-36543-8

Metabolism/Thyroid: Nicotine is well known to increase resting metabolic rate. Nicotine was shown to activate thyroid hormone receptor-B in the brain, and might “substitute” for thyroid hormone to some extent. Nicotine stimulates the conversion of T4 to active thyroid hormone, T3, through increasing activity of deiodinase 2. “nicotine reversed/ameliorated hypothyroidism-induced deficits in learning and memory at the molecular, cellular, and behavioral level.” When smokers quit, the deficits in learning/cognition/memory could be alleviated by thyroid hormone supplementation. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4624048/
@EO_Nutrition - Elliot Overton
Smoking and the thyroid: Smokers on average have higher T3 levels, lower TSH and lower markers of thyroid autoimmunity. Smokers have a significantly lower risk of developing hypothyroidism and autoimmune thyroid disease. This protection disappears 3 years after quitting smoking. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4624048/ https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111/cen.12222

COVID & dysautonomia: The fix for long-COVID (or vaccine-induced) Dysautonomia? For many, its NICOTINE Why? Top-down control of the autonomic nervous system depends on cholinergic neurotransmission, involving the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Researchers found evidence of an interaction between SARS-CoV-2 spike protein & nicotinic-acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), and hypothesize that this may impair the cholinergic system. When the body loses control of acetylcholine, it loses control of the autonomic nervous system = dysautonomia. Nicotine binds with nAChRs and potentiates the action of acetylcholine. Nicotine UPREGULATES nAChRs. It is hypotethized that nicotine may "counteract the viral blockade of nAChRs" and restore cholinergic activity. It was known in the early days that smokers had much higher protection against infection, and it was thought this was related to the ACE2 receptor. However, many are using it post-covid and even post-vaccination to re-establish autonomic balance. A lot of people already know HIGH DOSE THIAMINE can be effective for long-covid/post-covid vaccine effects. What many don't know is that thiamine is necessary for the release and action of acetylcholine at every step!! The combination of thiamine + nicotine could be a game changer. Nicotine can be used in gum, patches, or of course... combusted. Vaporization would be my personal choice of entry

Nicotine = Anti-estrogenic Low dose of nicotine inhibits aromatase, the enzyme which catalyses the conversion of androgen hormones into estrogen This has been shown to occur in numerous regions of the brain In animals: "In laboratory studies on female rats, we confirmed the aforementioned epidemiological findings that chronic nicotine exposure reduced endogenous 17β-estradiol (E2; a potent estrogen) levels" https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0010440X23000184#f0005
