@Johannels16@ProfTimNoakes Two big sources of D-lactate build-up in the body are the absence of Bifidobacteria in the gut and polyethylene glycol (PEG) in processed foods (and some laxatives). Once the D- to L-lactate is distrubed, the downward spiral begins.
@Johannels16@ProfTimNoakes D- vs L-lactate ratio is the elephant in the metabolic room. Elevated D-lactate levels (relative to L-lactate levels) will gum up the mitochondria, leading to slower energy production, with the well known host of consequences that brings about.
@ProfTimNoakes@sweatscience I've helped several Comrades athletes improve their PBs by an hour or more by running on water and some salt only. Some were high carb, some high fat. I used pre-race animal protein load (24-48 hours) to achieve this. Anecdotal evidence that exogenous glucose is not needed.
@ProfTimNoakes@sweatscience From research I did about 30 years ago (but not published), I found that exogenous glucose stops gastric emptying stone cold, trickling through the glucose slowly to the duodenum. Thus bolus glucose during a race is not (imho) helpful in replenishing glycogen.

"There Is Nothing from the CDC I Can Trust!" - Dr. Birx Tells Off CDC Director, Claims COVID-19 Mortality Rate Inflated By as Much as 25%! https://t.co/p0pUd3BTtZ
@EricTopol @NatureNews @cwillyard It's the magnesium deficiency, stoopit... COVID-19 patients in severe respiratory distress need IV MgSO4. Test red cell magnesium and you will understand the problem of hypo-oxygenation at the same time
This is what a global flu "pandemic" looks like (every year).
"We estimated an average of 389 000 ... respiratory deaths were associated with influenza globally each year during the study period, corresponding to ~ 2% of all annual respiratory deaths."

@Chrest_brett @Jason19876183 @ProfTimNoakes Brett, please do me the favor and speak to a real Chinese doctor who actually worked in Wuhan. The CMA put out this statement to cover all bases. The doctors in Wuhan put their trust in IV Vit C.
@ProfTimNoakes There are three major clinical trials underway in China, testing IV Vit C on CV19. Since implementing their basic protocol, mortality has dropped to its lowest level since Jan 22, when records began. https://t.co/UEp8BVXW5c
So Brett
@Chrest_brett
I'm sure you speak with real authority. From the front lines in Wuhan directing the medical care of critically ill patients, no doubt? https://t.co/plsAYcLNSp
By the way, how are the medical studies progressing? https://t.co/kVEROymC9B
@EpigeneticWhisp@ProfTimNoakes It's been DECADES since medical students globally took the Hippocratic Oath. My class (1992) still had a reasonable facsimile. As of 1993, my alma mater aligned itself with the liberal ideology of "I promise to be a nice person, well, sort of, sometimes., don't quote me."
@StefanusSnyman@MichaelJordaan Since 14 Feb, the Chinese government has been running clinical trials on IV Vit C for CV19. Currently, there are three major trials underway. One is registered with ClinicalTrials https://t.co/wLHiCpi9YU
