Summary

Kyle McNease, an Oxford student, became severely ill for three and a half years after arsenic poisoning from renovating an old barn, compounded by genetic detoxification impairments; at his worst he was emaciated, unable to communicate and near death. He credits oral chelation, antivirals and antibiotics for co-infections, hormone support, low-dose naltrexone, CBD and mind-body practices. Within a year he returned to top academic performance and now works as a researcher and teacher, though he lost his previously photographic memory and still needs occasional IV fluids under stress.
