Why Dysbiosis, SIBO, Hydrogen Sulfide Intolerance, MCAS, and Long COVID May All Be Downstream of a Single Event
Dysbiosis, SIBO, hydrogen sulfide intolerance, MCAS, and long COVID may all be downstream of one event: the colonocyte losing control of oxygen, butyrate, and its own mitochondria. The Host Capacity Model in full.

The Mycotoxin-Mitochondria Trap: Why Standard Detox Fails in Chronic Illness, and How to Escape It
Mycotoxins directly impair mitochondrial function and disrupt the gut oxygen gradient, creating a bioenergetic trap that binders alone cannot break. A Host Capacity Model interpretation of why standard detox protocols fail in SIBO, MCAS, and long COVID, and what the upstream lesion actually requires.

Beyond Weight Loss: How GLP-1 Agonists Influence Gut Bioenergetics and the Host Capacity Model
Emerging research suggests GLP-1 receptor agonists do more than regulate glucose and appetite. They also influence colonocyte mitochondrial function, the gut oxygen gradient, the microbiome, and barrier integrity, with direct relevance to the Host Capacity Model.

Why Your Chronic Illness Got Dramatically Worse in Perimenopause: The Hormonal Cascade Driving Gut, Mast Cell, Brain Fog, and Fatigue Symptoms in Your 40s
What the research now shows about why women in their 40s experience the emergence or sudden worsening of MCAS, histamine intolerance, SIBO, autoimmune flares, and post viral illness, and where the actual upstream lesion lives.

Why Your Brain Fog Won't Lift: The Six Mechanisms of Cognitive Dysfunction in Chronic Illness, and Why Standard Interventions Keep Failing
What patients with persistent brain fog across long COVID, MCAS, SIBO, perimenopause, and ME/CFS have in common, and where the actual lesion lives.

Why hEDS, POTS, and MCAS Almost Always Come Together: The Mechanistic Triad and the Upstream Lesion Standard Medicine Doesn't Treat
Why hEDS, POTS, and MCAS cluster as one integrated illness — three faces of a structural vulnerability decompensating against a shared bioenergetic capacity ceiling.

Why Long COVID Won't Resolve: A Mechanistic Reading of Viral Persistence, Mitochondrial Dysfunction, and the Gut–Brain Axis the Standard Model Is Missing
What three years of research actually shows about viral persistence, serotonin depletion, mitochondrial impairment, microclots, and EBV reactivation — and the single upstream layer that ties them together.
