The insult that causes respiratory dis-stress is dehydration. It’s seasonal because cold air holds the least moisture and indoor room air often dries out with heating.
The dry mucosa must re-establish itself and the production of mucus goes into overdrive. The mucosa requires salt and moisture and it will move both from any bodily reserves. This causes pain as the extraction process goes into motion.
Now you know why the old remedies are successful.
Salt water gargles, nasal irrigations/inhalations and chicken soup / bone broth soups.
Sanatoriums were built along coastlines to take advantage of sea spray because it was known to heal injured lungs.
Thank you for commenting, it made me read your articles and I’m hooked! It makes so much sense to me. Fortunately I’d already started buying a good French salt, sel de Guerande, and have plenty in the house so I was able to start adding it to my water today. It may be the good old placebo effect of course, but I feel an improvement already. I’m getting a copy of Dr Dinicolantonio’s book and rereading your posts and the comments which are a mine of information too. Thank you so much for bringing this information to us. 🙏🏻
Oh that’s lovely to know Susan. Thank you for taking the time to read my articles.
Experimentation with salt will add to your knowledge. I suggest you keep a note of things you currently put up with. And come back to read it in a month or two. When things no longer bother us, we quickly forget about them. Every part of our body is affected by loss of moisture. From eyes to ears to toe nails.
That’s a good idea. I’ll get out a diary I’m not using and start keeping a health journal today. At the moment I’m winging it and listening to my body as you advised but is there a ball park in terms of grams of salt that we should be aiming for? Or if not grams, maybe teaspoons?
James DiNicolantonio‘s interview with Biohacker on YouTube is a good resource to listen too. It’s the first question people ask. I think I’ve linked to it in we breathe air not oxygen. James talks in terms of sodium and salt.
I prefer to learn the symptoms of dehydration and dryness and remedy with salt water. That way I’m always noticing what’s happening with me and learning the more subtle signs.
Eg in James’ video he mentions dizzy on rising and low blood volume/low blood pressure.
I take 1/2tsp of salt with about 300 ml of water and this is easy for me. It doesn’t taste too salty to me. I use a measuring spoon.
I started with a pinch, then increased it 1/4 tsp as my confidence grew.
I
So the subtle sign is fuzzy thinking - what did I need from the garage? to light headedness, dizzy, fainting. The brain is acutely sensitive to dehydration.
Eyes are also very sensitive to moisture loss/salt loss. They give up moisture and need refreshing every time we blink.
Ears are also sensitive to moisture/salt loss.
This is why aging and chronic dehydration brings loss of sight and hearing.
Nice going Jamie! One idea, a better word for “False Positive” might be "Artifactual Positive" or "Display Positive", because there is no true positive, and some other factor unrelated to the target of the test is making a positive display.
In 2020-21 friends would tell me the test gave false positives, but there were still many true positives "because people were ill"--and they stayed in the brain-wash.
Fascinating. Would love to know what buffer is used by the various kits. We commonly used 4 different buffers, Hepes, phosphate, Tris, and citrate, depending on the buffered pH range and on the application. Hepes for most protein assays, phosphate for cell culture and cell lysis procedures, Tris for DNA and protein/DNA gel chromatography applications, and citrate for lower pH solutions. NaCl and detergents were common additives, again depending on the application.
But each buffer had its own characteristics- Tris pH, for instance, is temperature dependent, so is primarily used for room temperature applications. Hence, phosphate or Hepes was used for protein manipulations, as proteins require ice cold temperatures to remain biologically active.
And one would have to know the constituent composition of any given solution being tested to determine if a particular constituent effects the reaction. All of these things must be tested and controlled for. In the pre-kit days (1980's and earlier,) we were aware of effects of each component and designed experiments accordingly. However, younger scientists are rarely aware of such things.
The analogy I used with my students was that a cooking student could be taught the purpose of flour, of baking soda, or of baking powder, and thus understand why that ingredient was being added in a given recipe. Or that cooking student might follow a recipe that says only to add powder A, powder B, or powder C without having any idea what he is adding or the purpose of that addition.
Interestingly it didn't say what the buffer solution was in any of the kits. It seems to suggest in quite a few of the commercially available kits it is just saline. But who knows.
Yes, AI stated your kit buffer recipe was proprietary. Buffer chemistry was a concept I have to reread periodically. I hope this AI description is helpful for your followers.
Buffers resist changes in pH by maintaining a stable pH range through a dynamic equilibrium between a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. This equilibrium is characterized by a specific pH range, known as the buffer range, within which the buffer can effectively neutralize small amounts of added strong acid or base.
Weak acid (HA) and its conjugate base (A-): In an acidic buffer, a weak acid (HA) is mixed with its conjugate base (A-), typically in the form of a salt (e.g., sodium acetate, NaC2H3O2). When a strong acid (H+) is added, it reacts with the conjugate base (A-) to form the original weak acid (HA) and water (H2O). This reaction shifts the equilibrium to the left, reducing the concentration of H+ ions and maintaining the pH.
HA + H+ → H2O + A-
Weak base (B) and its conjugate acid (BH+): In an alkaline buffer, a weak base (B) is mixed with its conjugate acid (BH+), typically in the form of a salt (e.g., sodium hydroxide, NaOH). When a strong base (OH-) is added, it reacts with the conjugate acid (BH+) to form the original weak base (B) and water (H2O). This reaction shifts the equilibrium to the right, reducing the concentration of OH- ions and maintaining the pH.
BH+ + OH- → B + H2O
Buffer capacity: The ability of a buffer to resist pH changes is limited by its capacity, which is defined as the amount of strong acid or base that can be added before the pH begins to change significantly. Once the buffer capacity is exceeded, the pH will change rapidly.
pH range: Buffers operate within a specific pH range, known as the buffer range.
Before introduction into the buffer, the nasopharyngeal swab contain parts of: epithelial cells, bacterial cells, fungi…It means biomolecules and all possible interactions and bonds.
Absolutely, such samples are uncharacterized and fail to satisfy standard scientific criteria. In any given experiment, only a single variable is changed, for example, if you have an electrical problem with your car, and you fix the problem by changing 5 parts, it's impossible to determine which replaced part was the problem. Yet, this type of shoddy pseudoscience is routinely done in virology experiments,
I fear that most people will be insensitive to the significance of your findings due to the fact that this test was painted a joke over the past 4 years. But your findings proves that reality is widely influenced by manipulation of what we see (news, newspapers, radio, TV, social media, etc). No one cares about facts... Like what you've proven in this post [the test is complete garbage].
We might be able to use this material in a class action lawsuit suit against the fraud committed in Canada. Thanks for this helpful work! Will keep you in mind if it wins.
Hi Tao, Thank you for reaching out to me. Interesting that you are putting together a class action lawsuit. I would be interested to find out more about it as I may be able to further assist you given the project I am running, which entails much more serious and legally acceptable results given they come from accredited labs.
No worries.... this one was quite fun tbh. I am doing lots of work with people at the moment putting together legal cases against lockdown and vax passports.
Thank you. Interestingly enough my 16 year old daughter wanted to do her own kind of test. Wondering if the covid test can distinguish between covid and a cold or flu?
Hi, Well in this article I use tests that have one channel for covid and one for influenza A/B. Tell her to buy a test like that to do comparison testing.. they are fun science projects.
According to Stefan Lanka, proteins are not specific. The alleged specificity is obtained by the addition of chemicals, i.e. by changing the experimental conditions. E.g. smaller and lighter particles should travel faster to the line and heavier and larger ones more slowly.
A non-specific (biochemical) reaction is probably present. Although, it is already written in the manual and you also proved it with tests.
Agreed electrophoresis of proteins for their own identification clearly shows that the variables such as the gel type and viscosity are the determining factors, and I very much doubt the mechanism is sensitive enough to measure molecular weight.
It doesn’t surprise me that sodium bicarbonate would make the test basically “N/A”. I had 2 former MIL neurosurgeons and they prescribed daily baking soda protocol for my recovery- it has been shown “disease(s)” (or wtvr they’re picking up on w/ these “nose sticks)
cannot live in an alkaline state; including cancer. I use Redmond’s brand. Nice work.
What if the tests are all completely non specific? The only way to test that is to use the same fluid multiple times on the same brand of ag test.
It would make sense in a way. It looks like they react to something, but how are these "tests" manufactured? Does it tests for something, even if it was aspartame? Or does 1 out of every 20 sticks just give a "positive"?
How could antigen tests even work if specific antigens have not been proven to exist? It most be a lottery model.
I did do quite a few of the same liquid, especially Yeast solutions on the same tests with the same results. I don't think they are just “pot luck” designed to be positive or negative before hand or anything
Thanks. Is there any way to find out how these kits are made? What’s in the bars that react to something? How do the bars show up and why do they sometimes have colors? Why isn’t the bar made to show up in the place you dripped the fluids? What happens on the way up?
Great work, by the way. I really enjoyed reading and watching it.

Hydration equals salt plus water.
Healing begins with hydration.
I am big into both hydration and Salt. Lucky as here in France we have some of the finest Sea Salt along the West Coast of France From Brittany.
I’ve logically dismissed the gaseous exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide as a fraud. We are not machines running on gases of combustion and exhaust.
Our physiology runs on salt plus water.

Found my way here from your video on twitter.

Rather people are focused on information that's "packaged" the best [like a circus show]. It brings to mind the movie Idoicracy where they watered the harvest with Brawndo - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kAqIJZeeXEc&pp=ygUsSWRpb2NyYWN5LCB3YXRlciB0aGUgaGFydmVzdCB3aXRoIGdhdG9yIHJhZmU%3D

Very interesting! You didn't put those swabs in your nose, did you? We can't be sure of what is on those.
Thank you! Appreciated.
Good job, let's keep making fun of the BALD-FACED LIES!!!
Mockery and poking with sticks, that's the best part of looking at how STUPID these things are!
I poop in their shoes, those Covidians... woof!
Did you test salt NaCl?
Salt is in mucus.
I tested MSG which is a salt but not saline…
Good idea though.
