Dear immuno bionet readers,
Vitamin B-2 seems almost the most innocuous of the B vitamins.
Now it seems that relatively large doses may have some additional effects.
In my method for stimulating the liver to produce IGF-1, 300 mg of B-2
seemed to help. I attributed this to increased protein metabolism to
provide the free amino acids needed by the liver to produce IGF-1. Just
recently, a study in Belgium used 400 mg daily to achieve some beneficial
effects for migraine sufferers. I correlated this to a researcher's
concluding that migraine was caused by leakage of protein from blood
vessels. Perhaps, the extra B-2 was metabolizing proteins that might
be producing the migraine. All this leads to some speculation. Can
large doses of B-2 be used to produce beneficial metabolism and break-
down of harmful or undesirable proteins? Could this be used to break-
down protein protective coatings for visuses and bacteria? Would this
be helpful with the newly discovered disease that appears to be due to
just a protein, rather than a virus or bacteria? It sounds very
interesting. Any thoughts?
Regards, Ralph L. Samson
