Calcium enhances whooping cough infection
In our investigation, we explored the effects of calcium, particularly when paired with albumin, on the production of a crucial toxin linked to whooping cough, known as adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT). This toxin plays a significant role in the ability of the bacteria to establish an infection.

We observed that when the bacteria responsible for whooping cough were grown in a serum-rich environment, a clear increase in ACT levels was noted. Interestingly, the combination of albumin and physiological levels of calcium appeared to be essential in enhancing the amount of ACT and its release into the surrounding environment.

This increase was also seen in respiratory secretions, which naturally contain albumin, mimicking the effects we noted with serum. Importantly, we determined that the observed increase in ACT was not due to changes in the bacteria's genetic regulation or a specific protein activation process, suggesting a unique interaction between the bacteria and components found in the host's environment.

Overall, our findings highlight this albumin and calcium interaction as a significant aspect of how the body’s biological environment influences whooping cough infection dynamics. Further research could shed light on potential therapeutic approaches considering this novel interaction.

Improved respiratory function
Immunity increases significantly. The whooping cough did not dissipate initially, but after one can, it resolved. There was a marked effect on my respiratory system.

Cough resolved quickly
This treatment provides excellent support for low cortisol levels. Initially, my serum indicators were at the lower limit, but after a month, they have stabilised in the middle range. I had been dealing with a persistent allergic cough, which ceased after my cortisol levels were raised. However, I've noticed that if I stop the treatment for even a week, it returns.
