Response about taurine and nose bleeds

[Guest guest]

My read from the responses from the DAN! docs on the private ListServ is that

our reports

suprised them. Not one doctor said they have observed a nose bleed with taurine

and

Binstock found a medical article that showed taurine does not affect

coagulation.

What that means to me is that this observation may be unique to our antiviral

community

here and that may not be all that crazy. I've suspected by killing off virally

affected cells

that we may thin the blood to some degree. That might be part of the issue, or

perhaps

the temporary mobilization of metals (which toxins are reported to cause nose

bleeds) has

something to do with it, or possibly something else about antiviral therapy

combined with

taurine may cause nose bleeds in some kids.

But here is the other side of things. Better circulation may be a great benefit

for our kids

considering SPECT scans show some hypoperfusion in the brain and we often see

reports

of cold hands and feet in these kids (more signs of circulatory issues). So

thiner blood

may be good, just not so thin that they have nose bleeds.

Anyway, we are also only talking about a handful of reports in the scheme of

hundreds of

antiviral trials here, so its also important to keep things in perspective...

even though I like

to dig into details like this.

It was also suggested that you don't need a lot of taurine. 300mg for example

is said to

be more than enough. At least one of our reports was dosing about 650mgs.

That's all I have about taurine for today.
