[QUOTE="Chris24Main, post: 2756444, member: 585131"] Again, I really do appreciate the support, but it's like you're ignoring the central thrust of what I'm saying... I don't think elevated eosinophil levels ... in my body right now... are a marker of a civil war going on. They may very well be in most people, but most people are in some form of metabolic dysfunction and inflammation, which forces them to be this way. For me, I am more and more convinced (I mean, these were first measured two weeks ago, and I've felt just brilliant the entire time) that per this research, in a better metabolic environment - like when you become fat adapted, and get out of the way of your immune system - these cells can get on with other, more beneficial tasks, like making adipose tissue more brown. I measured my ketones this morning, and the way they are described, is that I am burning 7gm of fat per hour. I mentioned this to my wife, and she said "that seems like a lot.." and it is.. if you've never experienced this kind of metabolism. .. but ... that energy !! I feel like I'm fizzing over with enthusiasm, and positivity.. pretty much all the time.. (I mean, to the point that it just sounds silly writing it..) .. and my body effectively has to come up with additional ways to waste more of the spare energy.. thats what brown fat does, it literally wastes more energy as heat. What the article describes, is a change in behaviour of eosinophils ... in the condition of switching metabolism to fat burning ... to being more engaged with this temperature regulation, than with the immune response defence that they are usually associated with. Why do I need to be looking for reasons to expect that I've inadvertently swallowed parasites in river water, or that there is cancer (which is also much less likely in a low-inflammation state) ... why not be positive, when the science suggests that this is a positive situation?
