This YouTube video (CIRS 7) by Aaron Hartman, MD discusses chronic diseases with a focus on Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS). The speaker characterizes CIRS as fundamentally a mitochondrial illness involving mitochondrial toxicity, hypometabolism, a ‘‘stuck cell danger response,’’ and a metabolic shift toward aerobic glycolysis. The speaker also references therapeutic/environmental actions (e.g., eradicating “Markons,” normalizing “vcs,” using “VIP”) as steps to reverse the cycle.

That is, at its core, chronic diseases. But for us, very much a centerpiece of SIRS like this is the cornerstone of stirs. SRS is a mitochondrial illness. It is mitochondrial toxicity. It's hypometabolism. It's a stuck cell danger response. It's flipping into aerobic glycolysis. And that's where you are until you get your environment. You eradicate Markons, you normalize the vcs, you get them on VIP and you turn the cycle back on.
