The Science (TM) is Infallible!
Plus: GAINZZZ

Government "science" is made by the best and brightest.

If you missed it, new studies seem to prove that the "crazy conspiracy theorists" who said that fluordizing America's water supply was a bad idea were (are) right -- fluoride is linked to behavioral problems in children, and to behaviors similar to autism.

Fluoride. Autism. Linked.

The case for putting fluoride in water has always seemed particularly weak to me, not because there is no evidence that fluoride can strengthen teeth but because of its topical application mechanism. Consuming fluoride is actually bad for your bones and hence, your teeth, at least in higher quantities. It is called fluorosis. The NIH has a paper on the positive and negatives regarding fluoridation, which helps explain why it is very uncommon in Europe, where most countries have ceased the practice of adding the substance to drinking water.

Antifluoride lobbyists start with the fact that fluoride is not an essential nutrient and no disease has ever been linked to a fluoride deficiency.[11] In fact, fluoride is claimed to be a cumulative poison and biologically very active even at low concentrations because it interferes with hydrogen bonding and inhibits numerous enzymes.[12] Only 50% of the daily ingested fluoride is excreted through the kidneys. The remainder accumulates in bones, the pineal gland, and other tissues. Initial studies on animals showed that fluoride accumulation in the pineal gland led to reduced melatonin production and an earlier onset of puberty. The same researcher then showed in later studies that fluoride can also accumulate to very high levels in the human pineal gland.[13] Fluoride toxicity can lead to renal damage in children. Researchers studied 210 children living in areas of China with varying levels of fluoride in water (0.61--5.69 ppm). Among this group, the children drinking water with more than 2 ppm fluoride -- particularly those with dental fluorosis -- were found to have increased levels of NAG and y-GT in their urine, both of which are markers of kidney damage. The children's urine also contains increased levels of lactic dehydrogenase -- a possible indicator of liver damage. A diseased kidney is unable to effectively excrete fluoride, so individuals with compromised kidneys are at risk of developing fluorosis even at normal recommended limit of 0.7--1.2 ppm.

Fluoride has been shown to be mutagenic by causing chromosome damage and interference with the enzymes involved with DNA repair in a variety of cell and tissue studies carried out in animals.[14] Recent studies have also found a correlation between fluoride exposure and chromosome damage in humans.[15,16] The only government-sanctioned animal study to investigate whether fluoride causes cancer, in 1990, found a dose-dependent increase in cancer in the target organ (bone) of fluoride-treated, male rats.[17] This led to a 14-year research carried out by Harvard University that showed a significant link between fluoridation and a rare form of bone cancer called osteosarcoma in young boys, consistent with the results of the 1990 animal study.[18]

Fluoride as a neurotoxin has been proven in several animal studies. A 2006 National Research Council report stated that it is apparent that fluorides have the ability to interfere with the functions of the brain and the body by direct and indirect means.[19,20] This finding was confirmed by a study where groups of children exposed to 8 ppm fluoride in water were found to have lower average IQs, less children attaining high IQ, and more children affected by low IQ.[21] While 8 ppm is much higher than the fluoride level added to water in fluoridation programs (0.7--1.2 ppm), these results are in congruence with previous studies[22] from China that indicate that fluoride may affect IQ at lower levels.[23]

So it's linked to reduced IQ, kidney problems, hormone disruption, and of course, cancer.

And the "experts" swore it was safe to add it to our water supply.

Because just brushing your teeth with fluoride toothpaste is too hard for some people.

So we all have to be dosed with a dangerous chemical.

To prevent... tooth decay.

And of course the former director of the CDC now admits that the non-vaccine hurt young people and was never advisable for anyone under 30.

DiedSuddenly @DiedSuddenly_

This is huge:

The former director of the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) admits Covid shots caused 'significant side effects' among young healthy people.

He also admitted that the vaccine wasn't really "necessary" for people under 50 years old.

He THEN admitted that many young and healthy people have suffered "significant side effects" from Covid mRNA shots.

Although this is a significant admission, it's a little too late.

DO NOT forget that 2 years ago, the same CDC signed off on forced vaccinations for workers, mandatory vaccines for pregnant women, and many people lost their livelihoods for refusing. Those who complied are now having to live with significant injuries.

But that's not all of the wonders of science government health bureaucrats bequeathed us.

The British government "did not put patient safety first" while covering up a multi-decade tainted blood scandal, leading to thousands of related deaths, a report published Monday found.

Britain's National Health Service allowed blood tainted with HIV and Hepatitis to be used on patients without their knowledge, leading to 3,000 deaths and more than 30,000 infections, according to the 2,527-page final report by Justice Brian Justice Langstaff, a former judge on the High Court of England and Wales.

The important thing, though, was that no gays were made to feel "bad" by having their blood donation refused.

Langstaff oversaw a five-year investigation into the use of tainted blood and blood products in Britain's healthcare system between 1970 and 1991.

The report blames multiple administrations over the time period for knowingly exposing victims to unacceptable risks.

Patients were exposed through a variety of methods, including blood transfusions or being given blood plasma or other blood products to treat conditions like hemophilia.

In several cases, health officials lied about the risks to patients. In others, patients were infected during research without their knowledge or consent, including children whose parents' consent was not sought.

Public health "experts" lying to the public for political reasons? That's hard to believe. I'm going to need some proof.

...

The situation could "largely, though not entirely, ha been avoided," Langstaff found.

"Standing back and viewing the response of the NHS and of government, the answer to the question 'was there a cover-up?' is that there has been. Not in the sense of a handful of people plotting in an orchestrated conspiracy to mislead, but in a way that was more subtle, more pervasive and more chilling in its implications. To save face and to save expense, there has been a hiding of much of the truth," Langstaff wrote.

"Over decades successive governments repeated lines to take that were inaccurate, defensive and misleading. Its persistent refusal to hold a public inquiry, coupled with a defensive mindset that refused to countenance that wrong had been done, left people without answers, and without justice. This has also meant that many people who are chronically ill have felt obliged to devote their time and their energies to investigating and campaigning, often at great personal cost."

Glad we don't have any of that in America.

Say, speaking of medical disinformation pushed by the government which has resulted in the sickness and death of millions of people, with the government directly responsible for so many unnecessary deaths that they will never, ever admit and repudiate their error -- this deadly diagram is still being pushed by the government.

Make sure you avoid fats and only eat a few servings of meat per day. And fill yourself up with 6 to 11 servings of delicious, healthy carbohydrates like bread and rice!

And yet: a small study suggests that a low-carb keto diet helps clear up acne.

In a small pilot study, some young women looking to lose weight on a low-calorie keto diet got an unexpected benefit: Their acne began to clear up.

"These findings represent an opportunity to control a skin disease that affects most teenagers and many adults at some point in their lifetimes, causing distress, embarrassment, anxiety and low self-confidence among sufferers, robbing them of their quality of life," said lead study author Luigi Barrea, of the Università Telematica Pegaso in Naples, Italy.

His team presented its findings Tuesday at the European Congress on Obesity on Vienna, Italy.

As Barrea's group explained, acne is thought to be a chronic inflammatory illness affecting what's known as the pilosebaceous unit: the hair follicle, hair shaft and nearby sebaceous gland. About 9% of the world's population is affected by acne, largely in the teenage years.

According to the Italian researchers, acne has long been linked with obesity, perhaps because both conditions are tied to rising inflammation and oxidative stress.

But-- but--

6 to 11 servings of nutritious carbohydrates per day!!!!

All of the women embarked on 45 days of a very low-calorie ketogenic diet (just 700-800 kilocalories per day). In keeping with the keto regimen, 44% of calories came from fat, 43% from protein and just 13% from carbohydrates.

All of the women successfully completed the diet, with some mild "adverse effects" -- headaches, muscle weakness -- reported.

Weight-loss results were impressive. The women lost an average of about 8% of their body weight over the 45 days, with a similar percentage drop in their waistline measurements, Barrea's team reported.

Their acne improved as well: Measured by a standard "global acne grading scale," scores improved by an average of 41.5% over the course of the 45-day diet.

As well, "the participants also reported much better life satisfaction, with an average 45% improvement in their quality-of-life score," researchers reported.

I tried that diet for a week back in January. It's often called the "protein-sparing modified fast." It's not bad. I wouldn't want to do it forever but it's not terribly hard to stick to for a while. You're eating a lot of protein and fat so that is more appetite-suppressing than more carbohydrate-loaded food.

Just make sure you supplement the diet with salt. Oh, and of course, 6-11 servings of nutritious vital carbohydrates per day.

In some good news, some paralyzed people have regained partial use of their arms through a device that stimulates their nerves.

More than 40 people suffering from paralysis from the neck down regained partial control of their arms and hands thanks to a relatively simple to use device, a large study said Monday.

The trial raised hopes that the non-invasive device could be help people with spinal injuries get back the all-important use of their hands.

The device, developed by Swiss medical technology firm Onward, delivers an electrical current through electrodes placed on the skin of paralyzed patients near where their spinal cord was damaged.

After two months of therapy, 43 of the 60 people participating in the trial regained strength and ability to use their arms and hands, according to the study in the journal Nature Medicine.

"I think it could be life-changing for the majority of people with spinal cord injury," lead study author US neuroscientist Chet Moritz told a press conference.

The field has seen a number of leaps forward in recent years, with electrical stimulation of the spinal cord allowing several patients to regain the ability to walk.

My GAINZZZ are just maintainzzz. However, I did go back "on regime" this week and am cutting out most carbs and other crap (including "low carb" snacks which I'm pretty sure aren't low-carb at all). So I may have GAINZZZ to report in a couple of weeks.

What about you? What are yo' GAINZZZ?

I could do this but I don't feel like it now.

Cat hazard.

I've posted this before, but it's fun: German shepherd is a real slugger.

Skipping rope.
