Following on from jim_asheville — and this may be the naive question:
What did you change at the same time, and can you separate the two now?

I read this differently. The confidence in this thread is running ahead of the evidence, and I would rather the uncertainty were stated than smoothed over because it is unsatisfying.
Correct me if the detail matters more than I have assumed.
Moderator note: good thread. Keeping it here rather than moving it, because the question is general enough to be useful. Report rather than reply if it drifts again.

This answered a question I did not know how to ask. Printing the relevant bit and taking it with me.
Clinical perspective, offered as context rather than as advice. If two explanations both fit, the useful question is which one predicts something the other does not. That is answerable; arguing about which sounds more plausible is not.
Worth separating that from food noise, which this thread keeps folding into the same question. They behave differently and the advice does not transfer.
