Covid-19 Special – Tucker Goodrich
Tucker Goodrich is a Wall Street tech guru and citizen scientist who healed his own illnesses mainly by cutting out vegetable oils and gluten from his diet. He’s been on the podcast twice before.
We talk about:
- Imperial College model (no tree grows to heaven)
- Diamond Princess
- John Ionnaidis paper
- Tucker’s post for Italy data
- ARDS soybean oil paper
- SARS cell change post infection – increases metabolism of w6 fats
- Serum w6 means more ARDS
- Malcolm Kendrick

“The incidence of late ARDS among those exposed to TPN was 28.7% (116/404) compared with 3.9% (76/1942) among those not so exposed. Adjustments for potential confounding associated risk factors were made.”
“For instance, metabolism of omega-3 fatty acids leads to less inflammation than metabolism of omega-6 fatty acids and may reduce the harmful side effects of TPN”

“As plasma linoleic acid concentrations decreased, there was usually an increase in plasma 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal values, one of its specific peroxidation products, suggestive of severe oxidative stress leading to molecular damage to lipids.”

“Increases in unsaturated serum acyl chain ratios differentiate between healthy and seriously ill patients, and identify those patients likely to develop ARDS. Thus, the serum acyl ratio may not only prospectively identify and facilitate the assessment of new treatments in patients at highest risk for developing ARDS, but may also lead to new insights about the pathogenesis of ARDS.”
