@Maurice Daher - A dear friend of mine has been battling an ongoing infection (Klebsiella) for ~2 years now. She is scheduled to undergo a procedure tomorrow whereby the kidney stones will be shocked and broken down so she can pass them. I initiated a Google search and the AI response suggests that this procedure is too dangerous at this immediate time because the current level of her infection in her blood or urine has not been recently updated. AI replied that the ultrasound shockwaves will shatter the stones and cause minor trauma to her kidney tissue and since the kidney stones are heavily concentrated with klebsiella, this drug resistant infection could be forced directly into her bloodstream resulting in septic shock. My friend intends to consult with you after her procedure, but she may not survive the procedure based on the little research I completed. Based on the information above, can you please share whether she can pass her kidney stones in the imminent future if she were to immediately change her entire dietary intake? She told me she has had gout before. I replied "Your bile production is likely low as is your nitric oxide levels". Is this situation one where you can intervene to help her stabilize her condition so that she can eventually pass the stones naturally?

@Maurice Daher Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving Day celebration. I (and I believe all other SKOOL classmates will agree with me) are most thankful for you and all the guidance and education you have given us. You also provide me with much joy by sharing your two unbelievably beautiful pups, Duke and Kash! Warms my heart! 🤗 May GOD continue to watch over you, the pups and your family as well as shower you with blessings and good health! 🙏

Hey everyone, I’m considering adding a full educational series on peptides to the community, and before I start building it, I want to hear from you. Peptides have become incredibly popular, but there is also a lot of hype, confusion, and questionable information surrounding them. Some have meaningful human research behind them, while others are supported primarily by animal studies or early mechanistic evidence. My goal would be to break them down the same way we approach everything else here: biology first, evidence first, ideology last. We could explore peptides such as BPC-157, KPV, GHK-Cu, TB-500/Thymosin Beta-4, PT-141, GLP-1 related peptides, and others, looking at what they do, the pathways they influence, the quality of the human evidence, potential risks, and areas such as cardiovascular health, metabolism, recovery, body composition, sexual health, and longevity. This would be an educational series, not simply “here's a peptide, take this.” I want you to understand the biology well enough to separate promising science from marketing. Would this be something you'd like me to add to the community? And which peptide or area would you want me to cover first? Drop your thoughts below. 👇 Eat Based On Your Biology, Not Ideology™

Hi everyone, A quick reminder that I’m away this week and will be back next week for our Tuesday class. In the meantime, please keep your questions and messages coming in. Feel free to post anything you want me to review, look into, or discuss. I will go through everything when I’m back and respond in detail so I can give each question the attention it deserves. Thank you for your patience, and I’m looking forward to catching up with everyone next week. Maurice

Slight emergency had to leave last night.. should be back shortly will touch base with everyone.
