When we think of bone health we all think about calcium.
But bones are actually 50% collagen protein matrix, which gives it the slight flexibility it needs to avoid snapping.
The body then fills in the spaces with various minerals, including calcium, to give the bone compressive strength.
The number 1 way to optimise bone health is diet - eat what your bones are made of!
Reduce highly processed carbs, grains, and sugars and eat foods with collagen, proteins, and minerals.
Steak (especially the gristle) contains all of these.
@SamaHoole And let’s not forget than 80% of cholesterol is made in the liver regardless of what you eat. If you consume less cholesterol your liver will produce more to keep up with this essential hormone regulating molecule.
Yep, and a study in 2014 called this mistake out with the hope that the IoM would change their recommendation. They neither acknowledged they were wrong, or changed their recommendation, which is crazy. When they extrapolated out the data correctly, they came to a recommended IU of around 8900 daily.
@DrNeilStone So by your logic, you’re inferring that vaccines might affect autism rates?
And by pointing out that more mercury leads to lower autism rates, should we be investigating injecting children with more mercury?
Some drawbacks of this study:
Researchers would not release its raw individual-level data because of data laws, so independent verification is not possible.
They grouped together children with 0 vaccines in the same group as those with up to 1.5mg.
The authors are affiliated with the Satens Serum Institute, which used make vaccines but now acts as the CDC of Denmark, which still oversees vaccination programs.
The lead author is a career vaccine researcher for the government (I.e. received government funding to research government programs). Potential conflict of interest.
Children who died under 2 years of ago were not counted. So if a child died immediately after vaccination, it wasn’t counted as aluminium adjuvant based.
Ultimately, without being able to independently verify the data, this is not convincing enough to wager a child’s life on.
FYI, Cassidy’s contributions from big pharma is among the highest for any senator from the pharmaceutical sector.
2019–2024 cycle:
$712,500 from pharma/health products sector → $429,000 from industry PACs → $283,500 from individuals (including pharma CEOs)
• After becoming ranking member of HELP Committee in early 2023, he quickly received max donations from CEOs of Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Bristol Myers Squibb, Biogen, and others on PhRMA’s board.
• Top PAC donors (2024 cycle examples): AbbVie, Novartis, J&J, Pfizer, Teva, Gilead, Astellas — most at or near the legal maximum.
I would say he perhaps has a slight conflict of interest….
@AlastairMcA30 But nothing that he has said here is untrue. You may (or may not) be right ultimately about vaccines, but the website says nothing untrue.
@KrutikaKuppalli For anyone still confused by this, please go watch the documentary “an inconvenient study” by Del Bigtree. It reveals the truth right from the horses mouth
@seeksboston26mi@SecKennedy@DrOz What does “good diet” entail? Maybe think carbs and grains are part of a “good diet”, but they can be huge drivers of insulin resistance.
@DoctorTro When I see my work colleague’s lunches, and the amount of processed food and energy drinks they consume everyday, it honestly blows my mind how they keep on going. The body is crazy resilient, yet we still push it to its limits.
Yes, just a regular LDL and HDL cholesterol test is not detailed enough to prescribe medication for. Yet that’s what most doctors do, which is insane.
Cholesterol only becomes damaging when it’s oxidized, typically by highly oxidative foods (seed oils, deep fried foods, and refined sugars).
You can test for that, but most doctors don’t/wont.
@BGatesIsaPyscho Once you see through the “saturated fats are bad” narrative designed and pushed in the 50s, the whole narrative against red meat collapses. 50% of the fats in breast milk are saturated fat for Gods sake, how can they be bad?
When you say an ‘LDL of 200,’ what are you really referring to? There are multiple LDL subtypes—some relatively harmless, others dangerous—depending on particle density and whether they’ve become oxidized.
The standard LDL and HDL test your doctor orders is an outdated tool. It measures cholesterol content, not particle type, size, or oxidation, so it gives an incomplete picture of heart health.
That’s why it’s possible to have high LDL and be metabolically healthy—or have the same LDL number and be at high risk. The real danger comes from small, dense, oxidized LDL driven by poor diet and metabolic dysfunction.
Unless you dive deeper into more detailed tests, you can’t claim someone with an “LDL of 200” is not healthy.
@DrSuneelDhand If that were true that would mean saturated fat does not lead to heart disease, dietary cholesterol does not lead to heart disease, and that polyunsaturated fats from vegetable oils are bad…. Oh wait! 😂
