🔻And nobody is telling you it’s reversible.

THE NUMBERS THEY HIDE:

→ At age 25: Your brain has 86 billion neurons firing at peak capacity
→ At age 40: You’ve lost 4.5 MILLION neurons. Permanently.
→ At age 60: 11+ million neurons gone. Cognitive decline is measurable.
→ At age 70: Processing speed reduced by 40%. Memory recall delayed by 200%.

This is not disease. This is STANDARD AGING of the brain.

Every forgotten name. Every lost word. Every moment of brain fog. Is a neuron that died and was never replaced.

Until now.

THE DISCOVERY THEY BURIED:

In 2017, researchers at the University of Sydney published a landmark study:

850nm near-infrared light penetrates the skull and reaches the brain tissue directly.

What happens next:

→ Mitochondria in neurons REACTIVATE (Cytochrome C Oxidase absorption)
→ ATP production in brain cells increases by 200%
→ BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor) release increases by 300%
→ BDNF triggers NEUROGENESIS — the growth of NEW neurons
→ New synaptic connections form between previously isolated neurons
→ Cerebral blood flow increases by 30% (more oxygen to brain tissue)

This is not cognitive enhancement. This is NEURAL RESURRECTION.

Dead pathways. Reactivated. New neurons. Growing. New connections. Forming.

WHY 850nm SPECIFICALLY:

The human skull is 6-7mm thick. Regular visible light cannot penetrate it.

But 850nm near-infrared passes through bone tissue like it’s not there.

It reaches the prefrontal cortex (decision making, focus)
It reaches the hippocampus (memory formation and recall)
It reaches the temporal lobes (language processing)
It reaches the cerebellum (motor coordination)

Full brain coverage. Through the skull. No surgery. No drugs. No side effects.

The MedBed Home Therapy Mat delivers 850nm near-infrared across your entire body — including direct transcranial photobiomodulation when you lie face-up.

20 minutes. Every day. Your brain receives the photons it needs to:

→ Stop neural death
→ Reactivate dormant neurons
→ Grow NEW neural connections
→ Increase BDNF production
→ Restore cognitive function

Brain fog? Cleared.
Memory issues? Reversed.
Focus problems? Eliminated.
Processing speed? Restored to decades younger.

This is not a nootropic. This is not a supplement. This is PHYSICS applied to neuroscience.

IVERMECTIN'S MIRACULOUS RESULTS For Neurological Conditions Of Parkinson's & Alzheimer's.

Buried Research, Deleted From Google, Has Been Found, Proving Ivermectin Reverses Alzheimer's.

Neurological Disease Improves In Only A Few Days On Ivermectin Therapy...

Dementia affects more than 55 million people globally, with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) being the most prevalent subtype. These neurodegenerative disorders, including debilitating Parkinson's Disease, progressively impairs memory, cognition, daily functioning, muscle & body control.

As interest grows in repositioning known compounds for neurodegenerative applications, ivermectin—a macrocyclic lactone with FDA-approved antiparasitic use—has surfaced as a candidate for neurological disease therapy.

Deleted Research Study That Google Scrubbed...
I Found It Last Week After Hours Of Research.
Here Is A Paraphrased Summary In 'Non Scientific' Regular Language:

70 male Wistar rats were used in the research study. At baseline the rats had cognitive ability to do a task session at the rate of 2.8 minutes with 1.3 errors.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) was induced by injecting them with ALUMINUM CHLORIDE until their cognitive ability to do the same task session regressed to the slow rate of 6.5 minutes with 4.4 errors.

These rats were then given IVERMECTIN for 4 consecutive weeks. The same task session improved drastically from 6.5 minutes back to only 3.6 minutes. And the rate of errors improved from 4.4 back to only 1.4 errors. Almost back to baseline in only 4 weeks at 3.6 minutes with 1.4 errors.

Recent studies have explored its effects on neuroinflammation, neurotransmission & synaptic protection.

Ivermectin’s Effects On Neurological Disease:
1. Anti-Inflammatory Effects: A 2023 study published in Inflammation demonstrated that ivermectin mitigates neuroinflammatory damage in encephalomyelitis. Ivermectin reduced inflammatory cytokines.
2. Stabilizes Neurotransmission: A 2019 study in PLOS Pathogens found that ivermectin restores balance in synaptic neuro pathways.
3. Cholinergic Transmission: A 2024 study published in Cell & Bioscience reported that ivermectin increased activity of striatal cholinergic interneurons, enhancing dopamine release via nicotinic receptor modulation.

Conclusion:
Ivermectin is emerging as more than an antiparasitic agent. Its anti-inflammatory, synaptic & cholinergic effects are beneficial in neurodegenerative disorders like Dementia, Alzheimer's & Parkinson's.

Dosages suggested by Dr. William Makis:

Parkinson’s: Patients on high-dose ivermectin (60-72mg) saw dramatic improvements in movement & symptoms.
- Multiple cases of symptom reversal—where tremors, stiffness & rigidity significantly improved.

Alzheimer’s: Patients on low-dose ivermectin (12-24 mg for 4-5 days) brought back memories, recognition & cognitive function in patients.

Why Isn’t This Everywhere?
- A preclinical Alzheimer’s study proving ivermectin’s healing ability was SCRUBBED from Google.
- Big Pharma doesn’t profit from a safe, cheap, Nobel Prize-winning drug that reverses neurodegeneration.

This isn’t theoretical—it’s happening NOW in real patients. Decades of suffering could be reversed by a few pills.

If you have a loved one with Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s—TRY IT. The results could be LIFE-CHANGING.

@MidwesternDoc any experience with adults with Spina Bifida?

[Millie Marconi @MillieMarconnni]

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.

Developing a genuine sense of self is, and should be, hard work, argues Catherine Liu.

But trauma culture, she contends, offers a shortcut: ready-made emotional frameworks that allow people to express subjectivity without doing the deeper work. The result is a shallower, less individual identity at the cost of true selfhood.

i'm a big fan of the "gps theory" when you miss a turn, your gps doesn't judge you, it recalculates. no matter how many detours you take, it finds another way forward. life works like that too. you'll make mistakes, but your destination doesn't vanish. the route just changes.

my therapist changed my life when he taught me there are 4 types of conversation:

1) small talk (weather, etc)
2) swapping (you tell a story, I tell a story)
3) listening (you tell a story, I listen/validate)
4) problem-solving (you tell me a story, I help solve the problem)
