Anyone use these for brain fog. I think its called Ambrilose. Also interested in how they may function with antibiotics based on an article on "persisters" or "sleepers". Wondering if they may also be synergistic with hyperbaric oxygen.

My doc prescribed it to me, but it gave me no benefit at all. I've heard numerous stories of other patients from my doc who have also used it but stopped because they didnt found it helpful. Also it is expensive, considering it is just a supplement.

- Some (though perhaps not all) supplements with the fancy distinction of "micronutrient" are just food, technically. And you'd do better with budget to go for MEDICAL MUSHROOMS and specific antioxidants from dark & bright colored foods. They contain excellent glyconutrients.
A LL ND could best guide you for the very best quality of all nutrients in food & supplement form.
A LL ND is also a good idea as medical mushrooms can vary and the properties of each vary, too. Cordyceps is the best place to begin with medical mushrooms, I think, as it helps so many with the adrenal support required due to lyme.
Lion's Mane is another excellent one.
IMO, a lot of internet marketers looking to get rich have jumped onto the "glyconutrient" bandwagon when it's just a fancy word to hike up the price. Not all are equal.
Ambrotose seems to be an excellent product, though, and should help if it's in your budget. Still, it's good to also focus on diet to get the best of the best for your cells in every bite.
Enjoy sauteed mushrooms (vary the type), dark leafy greens and dark berries every day. -

. . . The primary sources of glyconutrients are fungi, saps, gums, and seeds, while the secondary sources are grains, fruit and vegetables. . . . -

Ambrotose was recommended to me by my neurologist friend that also runs a mHBOT/HBOT clinic.
She recommends it (and other glyconutrients) to many of her patients with neurological conditions, as these molecules are believed to assist with communication between cells, and particularly improve immune, digestive, and cognitive function.
I'm not in favor of taking a lot of supplements, but this is one I tried at her suggestion (after recovering from Lyme), and have truly noticed it makes a difference.
In particular, I have noticed enhanced mental clarity, as have the other 2 people I know who have tried it.
It should be noted that all 3 of us are doing mHBOT as well, however, for different conditions...

- d-Ribose seems in a similar class. Of the 8 sugars that are collectively called Glyconutrients, it just seems that d-Ribose would fit in that category. Just thinking, though, would need to look into that to be sure. -

Here are the ingredients for the "Advanced Ambrotose Capsules" (what I use), which are slightly different than the Complex Powder.

- Phoiph,
Thanks for that link as what you are taking has a few things not in the basic formula.
RE: Wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) is a type of edible brown algae . . . brown seaweed
Just a note about seaweed. It does not list how much, still, IF you feel at all too stimulated from this, keep in mind that seaweed has its own natural MSG, and as a glutamate, can be rather stimulating. If you experience that, MAGNESIUM can be used to balance that out.
[For all readers to keep in mind: Seaweeds are not a good idea for anyone with startle reactions or seizures.]
More detail in the glutamate / amino acid post here:
