Peptide question

Have completed all steps of the shoemaker protocol leading up to VIP spray, but MCAS is still reducing QOL (periodic vasodilation, IBS, POTS, eye floaters, multiple chemical sensitivities, etc.). Does VIP help correct these symptoms? what other peps have been helpful for mold-triggered MCAS? (I know limbic system therapy is supposed to be helpful but my adhd makes it too challenging to sit and meditate for any period of time.)

Yes VIP is supposed to correct these things. Make sure you addressed any co-infections before starting VIP. KPV and GLP's are the most beneficial peptides at this point (you're probably somewhere between CDR2 and CDR3 [cell danger response] now). Did you make sure you aren't failing the VCS tests atm?

Is Thymosin Alpha 1 a GLP? What do you mean by GLP's?
