@ProfTimNoakes It's financially disastrous for the taxpayer but another persons business plan. Not to mention the shocking effect on individual lives.we seem to have normalised complications as part of the landscape of diabetes.
@therealjimbbq So true. My concern is that almost everyone is too scared to face the root cause - the awful, highly toxic food environment. @TheNoakesF
How exactly is that intervention alone going to reverse the type 2 diabetes epidemic? Until the South African medical profession acknowledges that the root cause of type 2 diabetes is fully understood and this knowledge is included in the teaching of medicine and dietetics throughout South Africa, little is going to change.
Those at great risk of, or with type 2 diabetes must restrict their daily carbohydrate intake to less than 25-50g carbohydrate/day.
That's the prescription. (Unless you have a better solution)

The control is the muscle glycogen content largely alone. Muscle glycogen largely regulates its own rate of use based on its content in the LGP. Acts via insulin which modulates the rate of fat oxidation. High muscle glycogen produces higher blood insulin concentrations which reduce fat oxidation. Explains why the lower the dietary carbohydate intake the higher the rates of fat oxidation (which is generally thought to be advantageous). (Or until people realize that iit s produced by a low-carb diet!!).
I asked @EthicalSkeptic to find CDC data for sudden cardiac death in males ages 5 - 21.
The rate since the rollout of the COVID shots is 7 standard deviations above the baseline rate and is still rising.

🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk's SpaceX is reportedly in talks to access at least 80,000 THOUSAND U.S. cell tower sites as it gears up to launch its own nationwide wireless carrier — Bloomberg
Elon is about to send SHOCKWAVES around the nation! 🇺🇸
Starlink Mobile's next-gen satellites start launching in 2027
SpaceX could take "quite a few" customers from AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile. Those three bring in about $600 billion a year combined
THIS IS HUGE.
Don't bet against @ElonMusk.
Just astounding what R3.2 B can do
We have got so used to seeing hundreds of billions wasted on SOE’s over the past 30 yrs and basically stolen by corrupt ANC officials and their mates…think Tembisa hospital.
The latest from opening of the Civil hearing in the Netherlands accusing Bill Gates , Albert Bourla and others of producing and distributing bioweapons ( the Covid jabs)
There will be no coverage of this hearing in the legacy media which tells you exactly who owns and controls them.
Your brother speaks at a city council meeting against digital ID.
His comments are recorded. His verified identity is attached to the video. AI analyzes it.
Two weeks later, his premiums triple. His mortgage is denied. His employer is told he is a reputational risk.
No arrest. No charge. He just spoke.
This is what digital ID makes possible, and it is being built right now. Online child safety laws are how it gets installed.
Share this with someone who thinks speaking up is still safe.
Follow me. Every day I show you what is coming and how to stop it.
I spent 6 years believing the same thing your doctor believes. That LDL cholesterol is the enemy. Lower it and you win.
Then I found the data they never show you.
They lowered LDL to 30. The lowest levels ever achieved in human medicine. And 80 percent of the cardiovascular risk was still there.
They did not call it a failure. They called it "residual risk."
I call it the twelve heads they never checked.
We, the authors, retracted the paper, @Drlipid
This was due to the anomalous @Cleerlyhealth dataset they provided us alongside their repeated refusal to quality control check their work.
Study participants have since resubmitted their scans and have gotten results far more in line with the other independent analyses from Heartflow and QAngio.
So yes, understandably, we moved to withdraw the paper leading to its retraction.
(This has been known for over half year now.)

Steve Irwin was one of the most passionate animal lovers on the planet. He also wasn’t a vegetarian, and he had a clear reason why.
In a 2001 interview with Scientific American he explained that he went through a phase where he seriously considered going vegetarian. He researched it hard. His conclusion was the opposite of what most people assume.
He used a simple land-use example: one cow could keep him fed for roughly a month. That same piece of land could still have trees, grass, kangaroos, wallabies, goannas, birds, and the rest of the Australian wildlife living in and around it. The cow and the wild animals could coexist.
A plant-only diet for the same period, he argued, required clearing more land just for crops. Once you level that ground for rice or whatever else, almost nothing else can live there except a few pest insects. Habitat gone. Wildlife gone.
He wasn’t anti-meat. He was anti-destroying habitat. And he drew a hard line on which animals should be eaten. He hated the idea of farming or eating Australia’s icons — kangaroos, emus, crocodiles. Those animals were part of the country’s identity and tourism. He wanted people eating the livestock that already occupied grazing land (beef, lamb, etc.), not turning the bush into more monoculture or harvesting the wildlife itself.
On the day he died he had a classic Aussie breakfast: bacon and eggs. He lived a high-output outdoor life and fueled it with real food, not ideology.
Irwin’s position was straightforward: protect the wild animals, keep the land working, and don’t pretend that clearing more ground for plants is automatically better for nature. A lot of modern “eat less meat for the environment” arguments still haven’t grappled with the trade-off he laid out more than 20 years ago.
Have to love the English breakfast minus the hash browns, toast and beans ❤️. Heading our from Heathrow to NYC today
Will be back 9th Nov for the grand launch of NEO into the UK - stay tuned for the revolution beginning when we launch the Apple and Android apps.
It’s officially official.
This weekend Turkeys lead archeologist Dr. Cenker Atila reviewed and confirmed that Dr Bakhtar’s Report become an official and key development in the study at Noah’s Ark.
Dr. Bakhtar is America’s top rock mechanics expert, a 40 year defense scientist, and inventor of DOD’s Bakhtar Radar, and he just proved that the Durupinar Formation is NOT geological, and that there is a 3 tiered manmade structure beneath the surface with organized hallways, chambers, and corridors.
The hallways run over 4 meters high.
The “It’s just a pile of rocks” theory by armchair archeologists has just been completely destroyed.
Ahhh I’m so excited! It’s all real!!
Excellent storytelling by Shaun Pollock on team meetings and how it doesn't always help... Perhaps why MS Dhoni didn't believe much in them and at max had a minute or so before games!
Also, notice the quality of commentary here compared to what Indians are fed with! 🙏@abcsport
My dear Wolfgang, I hereby formally invite you to come and visit SA. You can bring your wife or boyfriend with you.
If you land in Cape Town, take a short left into Nyanga, Delft or Khayelitsha. Lovely people. If anyone approaches you with a gun and kindly ask for your car, wallet and cellphone, remember to use your superior negotiation - they just love being challenged.
If you land in Joburg, take a short left through Joburg CBD and Hillbrow. Lovely places. Remember to stop at every traffic light and intersection, open your car window and enjoy the lovely fresh Joburg air. If friendly black men approach you with guns, remember to use your superior negotiation. They may decide not to shoot you on the spot, but only highjack you and your boyfriend, rape and leave you in a nice field somewhere.
If you should travel to Durban, remember to get out of your car and close the B&B gate behind you. When the friendly black men pull up in front of you with guns and start shooting, remember those superior negotiation skills 😉
Good luck tinkerbell, let us know how it went.
Dit is advocaat Arno van Kessel, hij bedacht samen met Peter Stassen het plan om Rutte & Bill Gates voor de RECHTER te brengen vanwege hun MISDADEN tijdens corona, maar hij werd GEARRESTEERD door het Nederlandse regime!
Ze zijn BANG voor de WAARHEID!
Arno is een HELD!
Eens?
President Ramaphosa says Afrikaner persecution is a false narrative. I worked on the president’s farm when he was Vice President of South Africa.
I did my work honestly and correctly. I was mocked, threatened and had apartheid thrown in my face because I am a white man. People worked to get rid of me, and in the end they succeeded. The workers gave him an ultimatum and my contract was ended.
Before that, a fellow staff member warned me to get away from the farm, because they were going to stab me. I was threatened on the president’s own farm. It is all in my sworn affidavit, filed with USCIS.
President Trump looked at the facts and found that Afrikaners are persecuted. Yet USCIS found there is no pattern of persecution of Afrikaners, and on that basis says my family does not qualify. How can anyone call persecution a false narrative when it happened on the president’s farm?
We came to America legally. We are the Afrikaners already here. https://t.co/57BY7ak5Fh

A Wits/UJ professor claims the mere presence of white people causes workplace trauma to black South Africans.
Vasintha Pather argues that “whiteness” — including things like punctuality and accurate calculation creates anxiety for black and Indian colleagues.
This is what is being published and taught as academic work in South Africa:
