Published paper on alternative treatments for Cancer … https://t.co/njVQASX5G0
Greatest new song to come out of the World Cup! ⚽️❤️🇺🇸 Welcome To The Land Of The Free!🇺🇸❤️⚽️
If you thought COVID was built on a web of lies, wait till you hear what they did with Alzheimer’s disease.
While Big Pharma poured billions into failed drugs and fake plaque theories, one neurologist quietly proved the decline could be reversed.
And he did it without a single pharmaceutical.
Dr. Dale Bredesen discovered Alzheimer’s has five root causes, not one.
And when you treat those root causes, patients recover. 🧵
Welcome to The Land of the Free!

God Bless America. 🙏
Yes: handwriting still matters.
A new study has confirmed that writing by hand activates far more complex and widespread neural networks in the brain than typing, underscoring its importance for learning and memory.
Researchers at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology used a high-density EEG cap with 256 electrodes to record brain activity in university students. They found that the intricate, sensory-rich movements involved in handwriting, especially cursive, trigger highly synchronized brain waves across extensive areas of the parietal and central regions. These coordinated patterns are strongly linked to memory formation, cognitive processing, and encoding new information.
In contrast, typing, which involves repetitive, simpler finger movements, produced significantly less neural connectivity and engagement. The difference was striking: the brain appears much less active during digital writing.
The researchers conclude that the unique motor and sensory experience of holding a pen plays a key role in brain development and learning. As a result, they argue that handwriting instruction should remain a core part of education to support deeper comprehension and cognitive growth in the next generation.

New song out from ShyHippieGirl from TikTok called Best Sleepover
It’s pretty catchy, give it a listen 🎧
Your doctor will never tell you about Nattokinase.
But it dissolves clots, lowers blood pressure and a new study showed it shrank arterial plaque by 36%.
No med or statin does that.
Here are all its health benefits (& how to use it properly):🧵
Flash Shelton, also known as “Squatter Hunter" fights squatters by moving in with them and making the situation so uncomfortable that they leave, helping homeowners retake control.
Flash Shelton was grieving his father and trying to sell his mother's vacant California home when he got the call. Strangers had moved in.
Police told him it was a civil matter and there was nothing they could do. So he figured out how to become their squatter.
Shelton signed a lease from his mother to establish legal tenancy, drove 19 hours, camped outside waiting for the squatters to leave, then went in, secured the back door, installed cameras, and waited for them to return.
When they came back they found him already inside, legally. That method became the foundation of his entire business.
Once hired, his team secures a short-term lease from the homeowner, moves in alongside the squatters, and makes daily life uncomfortable, taking over common areas, playing loud music, and maintaining constant presence, until the intruders choose to leave voluntarily.
"What I used to save my mom's house, I am now using to help homeowners across the country," he said. "I've built a whole team ready to out-squat the squatters."
The legal genius of it is simple, squatters exploit the same tenant protection laws that protect genuine renters. Shelton just decided to use those same laws against them.
A Japanese immunologist spent 20 years proving that the chemicals trees release into the air walk into your bloodstream, hunt down your stress hormones, and arm your immune system in ways no therapist or pharmaceutical has ever matched, and most of the data has been sitting in Japanese medical journals for two decades waiting to be translated.
His name is Qing Li.
He is a clinical professor at Nippon Medical School in Tokyo and the president of the Japanese Society of Forest Medicine. The Japanese government has been funding his research since 2004, and the body of work he has produced is the reason forest bathing is now an officially prescribed clinical therapy in Japan and Korea.
The story actually starts in 1982, when the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries coined the term shinrin-yoku to describe the practice of slow, mindful walking in a forest. They did it for a practical reason.
Japan was urbanizing fast, stress-related illness was climbing, and the country had thousands of square kilometers of forest sitting unused. The idea was to give people a reason to walk into the trees... They had no idea what was actually happening to the human body during those walks until Qing Li ran the first proper experiment in 2005.
He took twelve healthy adult men on a three-day, two-night trip to a forest park. They walked for a few hours each day. Nothing strenuous. No prescribed routes or breathing exercises. They simply walked slowly through the trees, breathing the air, looking at the forest.
Li drew blood and urine samples before the trip, on the second day, on the third day, on day seven after returning home, and again on day thirty.
The numbers that came back from the lab were not what anyone expected.
The activity of a specific type of immune cell called the natural killer cell, which is the cell your body uses to hunt down cancer cells and virus-infected cells before they can spread, had jumped by roughly 50 percent during the forest trip. The actual number of natural killer cells circulating in the bloodstream had increased significantly.
Three different anti-cancer proteins that those cells produce, called perforin, granzymes, and granulysin, had all risen sharply. And the effect did not disappear when the men went home. The immune boost was still measurable on day seven and was still partially present on day thirty.
Two hours a day in a forest had upgraded the immune system for a full month.
Li ran the same experiment with women a year later and found nearly identical results. Then he ran it with a control group who took a three-day trip through an urban area with the same amount of walking, the same hotel quality, and the same diet.
The urban group showed no measurable change in natural killer cell activity at all. The forest was doing the work, not the vacation.
The mechanism turned out to be a class of airborne molecules called phytoncides. Trees produce these compounds to defend themselves against insects, bacteria, and fungi. Pine, cedar, oak, and cypress trees release them in particularly large amounts, especially in warmer weather and after rainfall.
When you walk through a forest, you are inhaling those molecules into your lungs and absorbing them through your skin, and once inside your body they appear to directly stimulate the production and activity of the very immune cells Li was measuring in his lab.
Roughly 50 percent of the health benefit of a forest walk, according to Li's data, comes from the chemistry of the air itself. The other half comes from what the forest is doing to your nervous system.
This is where it stops being only about the immune system and starts being about stress.
A separate Japanese research team measured cortisol, the body's main stress hormone, in 84 participants across 35 different forest sites. They drew samples before and after a 30-minute walk in each forest and compared them to control walks in matched urban environments. The cortisol levels of the people who walked in the forest were lower than the cortisol levels of the people who walked in the city by a significant margin. Their heart rates were lower. Their blood pressure was lower.
The activity of their parasympathetic nervous system, which is the part responsible for rest and recovery, had gone up. The activity of their sympathetic nervous system, which is the part that drives fight or flight, had gone down.
Then a researcher at the University of Michigan named MaryCarol Hunter ran the cleanest version of this experiment ever done. She recruited participants from a city and told them to take a nature pill three times a week for eight weeks.
They were free to choose the time, the place, and the duration of the nature experience, as long as it was outside, in daylight, and free of phones, conversations, and aerobic exercise. They sent her saliva samples before and after each session so she could measure cortisol changes accurately and rule out the normal daily drop in stress hormones that happens to everyone.
The result was that participants experienced a 21.3 percent drop in cortisol per hour spent in nature, with the biggest payoff happening between minutes 20 and 30 of the walk.
After that, the cortisol kept dropping, but more slowly. The threshold dose for measurable stress relief was just 20 minutes outside in something that looked and felt like nature.
What none of this means is that nature is a substitute for therapy or for medication when someone genuinely needs them. Therapy treats different things than a walk does, and Li himself has been careful in interviews to call forest bathing a complementary intervention rather than a replacement for clinical care.
But what the research has settled is that the human body has a physiological response to being among trees that operates on the same biological systems modern medicine is trying to reach with drugs and clinical protocols, and that response is fast, measurable, and free.
The strangest part of Li's work is the implication he keeps repeating in interviews. The average person now spends more than 90 percent of their life indoors. Their cortisol stays elevated. Their natural killer cells stay sluggish.
Their parasympathetic nervous system rarely gets a chance to take over. The system that was tuned by millions of years of life under a canopy of trees is being asked to run permanently inside a box made of drywall and screens.
Your body has not forgotten what it is supposed to do in a forest. It is waiting for you to walk into one.

A new shot literally regrows knee cartilage.
Researchers at Stanford Medicine have identified a novel strategy to regenerate articular cartilage in knees and potentially prevent or treat osteoarthritis (OA).
The method targets 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH), an age-related enzyme—or "gerozyme"—that accumulates in aging tissues and drives degeneration.
In aged mice, small-molecule inhibitors of 15-PGDH, delivered systemically or via intra-articular injection, promoted cartilage thickening and regeneration of functional hyaline articular cartilage.
This occurred without recruiting stem or progenitor cells; instead, existing chondrocytes underwent transcriptional reprogramming to a youthful state, with reduced populations of inflammatory and hypertrophic/degradative cells and expanded matrix-producing articular chondrocytes.
The inhibitors also reversed natural age-related cartilage thinning, improved joint function, and—when administered after simulated ACL injuries—strongly mitigated post-traumatic OA progression and associated pain.
Human OA cartilage explants from total knee replacements responded similarly in vitro, showing decreased degradation markers and evidence of new articular cartilage formation.
Given that an oral 15-PGDH inhibitor has already completed Phase 1 safety trials for age-related muscle atrophy, the findings open a path toward disease-modifying, regenerative therapies that could delay or obviate the need for joint replacement surgery.

Dr. Andrew Huberman just confirmed a “wild conspiracy theory” about incandescent lights and LED bulbs.
The long wavelengths found in incandescents increase your metabolism and “charge your mitochondria.”
Conversely, the LED bulbs that most of you have in your house are “causing disruptions in mitochondrial function.”
DR. ANDREW HUBERMAN: “Your mitochondria function better, you increase ATP production, your metabolism increases in the presence of red light, long wavelength light to the skin.”
“Shine long wavelength light on somebody, watch blood glucose levels in a blood glucose test, and it’s blunted.”
“Now, the LED lights that are commonly used now… that short wavelength light, in the absence of long wavelength light, has been shown to damage the mitochondria.”
“This used to be considered crazy. This was like chemtrail crazy, right?”
“But now we’re starting to see from animal studies and human studies, from Glenn Jeffreys and others, that people’s vision gets better when they get in front of an incandescent bulb once a day.”
“If they get sunlight, which also has long-wavelength light, your vision improves because of improvements in mitochondria.”
The Biden administration quietly pushed incandescents out of the market through aggressive energy regulations.
But you can still find them online today if you look hard enough.
If that health insight stood out to you, there’s a lot more where that came from.
This is WILD!
Tom Mueller. SpaceX employee #1, the man who built the engines and his 0.06% stake is now worth approximately $1.11 billion (Save this).
But the number undersells the story.
Mueller grew up in St. Maries, Idaho, population 2,500, the son of a logger who wanted him to follow the same path.
He spent four summers cutting timber to pay his way through engineering school, then moved to California with nothing but a degree and a passion for rockets.
He spent 15 years at TRW, one of the biggest aerospace companies in the world, watching his ideas get diluted inside a bureaucracy so he started building engines in his garage at night as a hobby.
By early 2002 he had built the largest amateur liquid-fuel rocket engine in the world, 80 pounds, 13,000 lbs of thrust and moved it to a friend's warehouse.
That's where @elonmusk found him.
Fresh from selling PayPal for $1.5 billion, Musk walked into that warehouse and asked one question: "Can you build something bigger?"
Mueller never fired that original engine, he took it back to his garage, where it still sits today.
Instead, he joined Musk on May 1, 2002 becoming employee #1 on the SpaceX payroll.
What followed was 18 years of building what became the most reliable rocket engine ever flown.
The Merlin engine, designed from scratch powered Falcon 1, Falcon 9, and Dragon.
The Merlin 1D holds the thrust to weight record for production rocket engines and it enabled the first ever propulsive landing of an orbital rocket booster, which is what made reusability possible, which is what made cheap access to space possible, which is what made Starlink possible, which is what made today's $2.1 trillion IPO possible.
Mueller also started the early development of what became the Raptor engine, the full flow staged combustion methane engine that powers Starship, which no American aerospace company had ever successfully built before.
He retired from SpaceX in November 2020 but he got bored within six months so he founded Impulse Space, building space tugs to move payloads around once they're in orbit, and planetary landers to deliver cargo to Mars.
What an incredible story!
Alzheimer’s may be linked to gum bacteria, new research shows.
Scientists have repeatedly found Porphyromonas gingivalis—the chief bacterium that causes periodontitis—inside the brains of people who died with Alzheimer’s.
When researchers deliberately infected mice with this oral bacterium, the animals rapidly developed key Alzheimer’s pathology, including the buildup of amyloid-beta plaques.
Perhaps most alarming, the bacteria’s toxic enzymes have been detected in the brains of people showing early Alzheimer’s changes years before memory loss or other symptoms appear, suggesting the infection may quietly initiate damage long in advance.
These discoveries have sparked serious interest in new treatment approaches. An experimental drug called COR388 (from the company Cortexyme) has already succeeded in lowering both bacterial load and amyloid-beta levels in preclinical models. Although large human trials are still needed, the evidence is mounting that at least some cases of Alzheimer’s may have an infectious trigger rather than being purely degenerative.

Another vaccine failure!
This time it’s Merck hit with a $50M settlement they’ve agreed to pay out as a result of their Gardasil HPV vaccine causing premature menopause, seizures, POTS, POI and other autoimmune disorders.
I’m glad they were held accountable!
🚨 WOW! Dr. ALVEDA KING just said it PERFECTLY on Capitol Hill
"I still have a dream. I dream that one day we will move beyond black power and white power and embrace GOD'S power and human dignity!"
"I reject the notion that Americans who hold traditional Christian beliefs should be treated as THREATS or TERRORISTS simply because we disagree with a prevailing political thought!" 🙏🏻
"I dream that Americans will one day see each other, not as enemies, but as neighbors. I dream that we will hear each other, see each other, and recognize that every human life has value from the womb to the tomb and beyond."
"We are as scripture teaches, one blood, one human race. And if we remember that truth, we can build a future worthy of the sacrifices made by those who came before us."
"We must speak out for truth and against the forces that would manufacture hate, fear, division, and violence simply to line their pockets and further their political ambitions."
"God bless America, God bless you!"

David Sinclair says he’s been reversing plaque in his arteries with nattokinase.
On Peter Diamandis’ podcast, Sinclair shared that he’s been taking it for years and mentioned a Chinese study with 1,086 people that showed up to 95% plaque reduction in one year at sufficient doses (at least 12 fibrinolytic units daily). He also checks his own carotid arteries with ultrasound and says there’s no buildup.
Nattokinase is an enzyme from fermented soybeans that breaks down fibrin. Some human studies show it can help reduce arterial plaque and improve blood flow, but results vary. Larger, high-quality trials are still limited, so it’s considered promising but not definitive.
Cardiovascular disease is still the #1 killer. If there are accessible tools that support artery health beyond statins and lifestyle, it’s worth paying attention.
Have you heard about nattokinase or tried anything similar for heart health?
Hearing loss? Tinnitus?
Well I have really good news for you!
Yesterday there was a presentation of how PRP (blood) can help to treat and potentially reverse hearing loss and tinnitus.
It was presented at The Stem Cell Conference by a Korean doctor named Dr. Minbo Shim who has been doing it for over 10 years!!
The results?
62% of patients responded positively
Several patients had 10+ years of benefits
Mean benefit was 21 dB
This is super exciting!
Looks pretty easy to perform and very safe.
Any ENTs seen or performed this before?
I’ll be doing a full breakdown on this in an upcoming Substack article.
Todd had terminal ALS and just ordered a wheelchair—then DMSO gave him his life back
His brain fog vanished. Breathing crises stopped in 3 days. He dragged 340-lb beams across a road. His reflexes healed.
His recovery shocked his doctors—but ALS is far from the only thing DMSO helps.
James Miller MD found roughly 80% of neurological issues people see neurologists for simply go away once he gives them DMSO.
Approximately 2500 studies support its use for conditions ranging from Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s to strokes, MS, paralysis, chronic pain, spinal injuries, depression, epilepsy, and Down syndrome.
Here, I will show how DMSO can cure many "incurable" neurological disorders.🧵
BREAKING: ADVANCED ALZHEIMER’S PATIENT REGAINED SPEECH, MEMORY, AND BLADDER CONTROL AFTER SINGLE PSILOCYBIN DOSE
An 80-year-old woman with advanced Alzheimer’s — who had barely spoken for YEARS — experienced RAPID and SUSTAINED improvement after taking 5g of psilocybin mushrooms.
During the acute phase, she entered a prolonged deep sleep-like state with profuse sweating.
~19 hours later, she spontaneously started talking again for HOURS — sharing detailed autobiographical memories she hadn’t expressed in years.
Over the following days, her family reported improved memory, walking, emotional connection, speech, and regained bladder control.
After 1 month, bladder control REMAINED RESTORED, and she was still functionally improved compared with baseline.
While this is just one published case report, the implications are enormous given that there are currently NO approved medications known to produce effects like this in advanced Alzheimer’s.
These findings urgently need replication. For millions watching a parent or loved one disappear to Alzheimer’s, even the possibility of restoring lost function warrants serious scientific investigation.
🚨 BREAKING Scientists may have just cracked the code on Alzheimer's and Parkinson's — WITH ONE PILL.
A drug called Buntanetap was just published in a peer-reviewed journal with Phase 3 data.
Phase 3 means that we are on the verge of FDA approval.
It targets the ROOT CAUSE of both diseases simultaneously.
Here's what you need to know 🧵👇
