Also it is worth noting that essentially all the studies on GASF are observational, Oxford Level of Evidence (LOE) 2 a, at best. None have looked at

SAGE (Symptoms Associated with Gadolinium Exposure) has recently been coined in an article in Radiology by 3 highly regar

It may be that some of you are thinking that I am promoting the most recent paper I have written in Investigative Radiology on the critical nature of immune dampening when chelating patients for a deposition disease state. I describe GDD but it would be true for Lead DD, Mercury DD, etc. But no, this is the paper: Genome-wide toxicogenomic study of the lanthanides sheds light on the selective toxicity mechanisms associated with critical materials View ORCID ProfileRoger M.
