stimme, your right about the effects of stress. According to "krispin magnesium" it causes a loss of magnesium which protects the body from stress so maintaining adequate magnesium levels should be priority one through magnesium rich foods and/or supplements. I noted earlier you had to stopped using serrapeptase because of cost. I found the dietary flavanoid quercetin possesses anti fibrosis properties and when paired with the flavanoid kaempferol each enhances the other. They are JAK and HDAC inhibitors. Problem is poor absorption. Good candidates for liposome delivery.
