For people battling Alzheimer’s disease, a simple supplement just delivered a new glimmer of hope. Participants took 20 g/day of creatine monohydrate. After 8 weeks, strength increased nearly 2 kg. Muscle size increased in key leg muscles. And they lost subcutaneous fat. All

They are not chemically identical.
Put cream in your coffee and you're totally normal. Churn that cream into butter and put it in your coffee and people lose their minds. They are chemically identical.

Your liver’s phase 1 detox uses enzymes like CYP450 to turn fat-soluble toxins into intermediate compounds, and phase 2 then adds molecules (like glutathione or sulfate) to make them water-soluble so they can be safely excreted.

The anti-dairy psyop is officially dead. A massive umbrella review just analyzed 95 systematic reviews covering nearly a decade of research and included 281 associations between dairy consumption and 29 health outcomes. Results:.48% = no link to disease risk.40% = lower risk of.

🤣.
RFK Jr. is such a quack. You must listen to the real scientists, like the ones who made us put on a mask as we entered a restaurant, walk ten feet to a table, and then take it off as soon as we sat down.

Not sure about this. If you’re eating a healthy omnivorous diet inclusive of animal products (eggs, beef, fish) and even plant fats from fruit, nuts, and seeds, there’s no need to add oil. It can in fact be a significant source of totally unnecessary calories.
@maxlugavere True that oils are calorie-dense, but context matters. Blanket minimisation can backfire - healthy fats slow gastric emptying, blunt glucose spikes, and support hormone and brain function. In my clinic I see patients who cut fat too low end up with more cravings and metabolic.

Oil is the most calorie-dense food on the planet. If your goal is fat loss or even just controlling appetite, there’s real merit to minimizing it.

Beautiful!.
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Epstein survivors just announced they will release their own list of names. “We know who abused us. We saw who came and went. This list will be survivor-led—for survivors.”. The government stalled. Now the victims are doing it themselves.

Love this because it shows how even brilliant minds can be gaslit and coerced into parroting insane nonsense.
Malcom Gladwell says he is “ashamed” of having said in a previous panel discussion that trans women have a place in women’s sports. He says he was “cowed” into saying so. “Trans athletes have no place in the female category,” he says.

I love the use of the word “fetish” in this context.
No medical reason to give newborns Hep B vaccine if mother is not infected. All mothers who deliver in a hospital are tested. This “scientist’s” fetish for vaccines not supported by the data.

Amazing to live in a moment where public health is finally being rethought from the ground up. For the first time in a long time, I actually feel optimistic that integrity might win out over inertia.

Yep. Good riddance!.
Here is a picture of the man resigning from CDC. Here he is wearing BDSM attire with a pentagram, a Satanic symbol, on his chest. He hates Trump and RFK Jr. These are the kinds of freaks who used to oversee public health in this country

If you’re allocating capital to the broad crypto market, here’s what you need to know:. Passive investing underperforms. Not just in returns, but in risk. We looked at the data. Here's what actually makes sense:
