"Reversal of the underlying predisposition " I wonder if they mean .. iron reduction therapy .. ? Nah .. Kullberg BJ, van 't Wout JW [Invasive zygomycosis: notably in diabetes mellitus and iron overload] [Comment, English Abstract, Journal Article] Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd 2007 Nov 24; 151(47):2603-5. The incidence of invasive zygomycosis, a severe and often life- threatening infection, is increasing. The most common manifestations are pulmonary infection (following anti-cancer chemotherapy or haematopoietic stem-cell transplant) and invasive rhinocerebral infection (in patients with diabetes mellitus or iron overload). Iron metabolism plays an important role in the pathogenesis of infection in these high-risk populations. Rapid diagnosis, reversal of the underlying predisposition and timely surgical debridement are the underlying principles of therapy for this disease.

Nice of him .. Eh .. <<snip>> COMMENT: Interesting. Mucor, for those that haven't seen it, is a horrible disease. It's a sort of breadmold looking fungus that attacks some helpless diabetic in acidosis, and eats right though the center of the head, out the eyes and into the brain. Something like you'd expect in science fiction, except it's real. <<snip>> Who loves ya.

Nah .." Ya, as often is the case, you did not understand what was written and saw in it what you wanted. The iron notion is dead as a dodo, only a little rust remains. Jesus ate a mediterranean diet.

Low iron causes cognitive problems, but we now have another possible cause for the displayed problems all these years, a brain eating fungus.
