possible Fluxovas TMAU study ?

1st post on possible Fluxovas-TMAU study.

The makers of FLUXOVAS, a lab at ...

Department of Pharmacy "Federico II" University, Naples

have been in very helpful communication with MEBO since we contacted them.

There is a bit of confusion in the situation (logistic complexities, perhaps translation etc) ... but it seems they are keen to get a Fluxovas - TMAU study going in their lab, with 20-30 volunteers needed ?

We are posting with haste (with their permission) to get the project going and see how it evolves.

Apologies for any misunderstandings.

It seems a contact point for sufferers who wish to 'register an interest' is their email :

They have kindly let us post most of the recent emails (to get things going)

They write :

For our initial research we are interested in elucidating the 

potential mechanisms of action of Fluxovas polyphenols in reducing 

serum TMAO levels, and one of these could be an effect in blocking its production of intestinal precursors (TMA). 

As you already know, we are investigating in this sense, following all possible options (microbiological studies, chemical analyzes, etc.).

Obviously it takes time, as this is a very complicated topic. However, we hope that in next months we will be able to gain new insights from our experiments.I promise you that as soon as we have new results, I will inform you.

In the meantime, we are also interested in a potential clinical study 

in patients with TMAU, aimed at evaluating the ability of Fluxovas to 

reduce TMA levels. This clinical trial would confirm our in vitro 

studies. In this sense, we are also developing a mass spectrometry 

method for quantifying the levels of TMA in a biological sample. As 

with microbiological studies, this also takes time, because we usually work with blood samples, and in this case, we have to work with urine. But nothing is impossible, it only takes time!

If you want, (and I would be happy) you can support us in organizing 

this clinical trial, for example by recruiting potential volunteers 

and / or a research institute interested in collaborating with us (eg 

for sample collection, patient monitoring, etc.) It would be a very 

interesting project, with international collaboration for the first 

clinical trial on the effects of food-derived bioactive compounds on 

TMA levels in TMAU patients.

In Italy too we want to do something similar. The problem is that getting urine samples from the US for analysis is complicated. If there were any research institutes interested, they could send us the samples.

If not, the only parameter we can check with you is the smell, although you already explained to 

me that it is not enough, but at least people could try the product 

for free.

To collect memberships in the blog, people can write to the email

... (here they suggest emailers copying MEBO into the emails sent ... but for now we are unsure if this is what they would want, so do not suggest this currently) ... 

 

In my opinion, people should indicate their name and surname, 

age, sex, diagnosed pathologies and any ongoing treatments. Clearly 

they should then give their feedback regarding the use of the product. 

When we have new interesting results from our studies we will inform 

you, but as I have already told you, the times are long and we can 

only proceed in small steps

It's ok for me to post my answer in the blog.

To answer your questions, it is obvious that the best thing would be 

to choose for our tests, patients with diagnoses, so they have the 

possibility to dosing TMA before and after the use of Fluxovas.

Unfortunately I understand that this is difficult, my proposal could 

be this: choose about 20/30 people, preferably with diagnosis and who 

can do TMA dosage, if we cannot find these patients with diagnosis, 

other people without diagnosis can participate to have their feedback.

We are a University, it is clear that we will guarantee patient 

privacy without ever disclosing people's names and surnames. We will 

provide the product free of charge to these 20/30 patients so that we 

will have an initial approach to the disease as we continue our tests.

As for the online pharmacies, I see many that sell Fluxovas:

https://www.efarma.com/fluxovas-30-compresse.html

https://farmacievigorito.it/integratore-fluxovas

https://www.farcomed.com/integratori/fluxovas-integratore-per-la-circolazione/

I know these that I have listed for you and they are serious and the 

price is good. Please note that in pharmacies the product has a retail price of 26 euros.

However, I would prefer to recruit patients through the official email 

I indicated to you. We are an institution and the rules require me to 

do so.
