Wow. I applaud this effort.

Been working on studying pharmacogenetics / pharmacogenomics / toxicogenomics focused on phenols such as catechins in tea. (Activity 'C' of https://docs.google.com/document/d/11f2bzMRbAgCJyoaEmxXKVytl... )

Would love to understand how you researched this, as locating relevant research literature has been challenging.

Hey Rick, it took a lot of time and a lot of emails to people researching the topic. But the key was the doctor's constantly diagnosing me and then diagnosing me with Lupus. Finding the link with Lupus and PNP SNPs was the key. The Lupus diagnosis was always back and forth because apparently PNP deficiency lowers immunoglobulin levels as well and that is the test that gets you in the door to the rheum only when it is high.

Many other phenol's and polyphenols seem to give me issues as well.

Also, you might take a look at the interaction between riboflavin and catechins. There is something going on there I do not quite understand:
