Understanding Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Prevention and Management*
This post caught my attention because of macular degeneration and the potential link to copper deficiency. Macular degeneration began in my case nearly twenty years ago after being poisoned. Of course this could be due to having then attained the age of 60. However aging and poisoning (general weakening of immune system and digestive capacities) are, to my mind, linked. Severe copper (and selenium) deficiencies were revealed by a recent spectroscopic analysis of my hair: which also showed excessive levels of aluminium and arsenic. Despite my, occasionally, taking a copper supplent (and sometimes eating Brazil nuts). A web-search for a link between copper deficiency and heavy metals has not produced much evidence. So far only this, from a research paper: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/molecular-neuroscience/articles/10.3389/fnmol.2024.1408159/full "Many of these functions … are crucially dependent on copper including mitochondrial respiration, antioxidant defense, iron metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis and vascular function" … "Copper imbalance can act twofold, firstly in excess as a cell stressor that can induce cuproptosis …, and in deficiency in the loss of function of critical cuproenzymes that affect respiration and normal neuronal functioning." … "In this regard the most notable risk factors seem to be related with contamination of food or water sources with plant and algal toxins, and also HEAVY METALS …, all of which either enhance protein aggregation or interact with copper or cuproproteins in a detrimental manner." … "A recent review that included over 258 studies has identified ß-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA), formaldehyde, mercury, manganese and zinc as key contributors to ALS [amyotrophic lateral sclerosis] risk in descending order of association …. Other studies indicate herbicides and pesticides that include paraquat, permethrin and glyphosate as being associated risk factors." Note that manganese and zinc are both essential for human health. It is when they are regularly in excess that they depress copper levels. Also perhaps pertinent to copper deficiency https://www.buoyhealth.com/learn/copper-deficiency#symptoms "Copper is integral to the body's processing of iron. Iron is necessary for red blood cell production. Thus, this can have widespread effects, such as: Anemia: Low red blood cell counts that do not improve with iron supplementation. Frequent infections: This is due to low white blood cell counts (neutropenia)." In the recent past blood analysis has shown me deficient in both red and white blood cells. But recently I was informed that my red blood cell count is normal. [Although I am sceptical of official "norms", which tend to be adjusted to reflect the most recent population averages, where overall health of western populations is declining] -

Long term visa needed for 5 year motorcycle license?
The last time I entered Thailand I actually had 2 valid visas, a DTV and a Non-Imm O, both in e-visa format. I followed the large overhead instructions "Present 1. Passport, 2. Boarding Pass 3. E-visa if applicable" The E-visa I presented was the DTV. Nothing was said about the other visa. I was stamped in on the DTV. The Non-imm O which was only valid for entry for 3 months was never used and has now expired. Any idea why it would not work? Or what kind of issues I might run into? -
