Statins do not offer mortality benefit in those with a good triglyceride to HDL ratio (low trigs, high HDL). This is irrespective of LDL levels.
While this paper is sure to spark debate, we (the authors) believe it to be sound. @LDLSkeptic @BenBikmanPhD

You’d have to eat 138 kg of bacon a day to match the rat study that started the bacon-cancer scare.

They injected rats with rocket fuel (a chemical known to cause bowel cancer)… then blamed the steak. The rats still didn’t get cancer. If anything, the red meat looked protective. Ep 3 of The Dr Paul Mason Show is live. Spotify: https://t.co/nreFUeIZ1Z

What blood pressure do people who live past 100 actually have?
It’s higher than most guidelines recommend - the data from thousands of elderly patients is clear.
Ep 2 of The Dr Paul Mason Show just dropped.
What’s your current BP target? 👇

Any idea what these black spots are?
A man in his 50s had unexplained bowel inflammation (elevated faecal calprotectin) and raised ECP, a marker that can rise with fungal exposure.
He later found heavy mould growth inside his electrolyte drink bottle.
Electrolyte solutions leave residue that promotes mould.
Glass bottles have a smoother surface and lower risk.
Clean your bottle regularly.

🚨Cancer patients: often told to load up on sugar & carbs to gain weight?
Evidence shows it might BACKFIRE. Prospective study of 414 head/neck cancer patients found high carb intake DOUBLED death risk (HR 2.29 all-cause, 2.45 cancer-specific).

Out of the hundreds of papers I read last year, this one could be the most GAME-CHANGING! Demodex mites (cousins to dust mites) likely fuel issues like rosacea, acne, dry eyes, and even chronic nasal congestion. Infestation with these mites, most commonly on the face, is extremely common. But here's the the most important finding - applying plain Vaseline to your eyelids at night could be a SAFE, CHEAP and EFFECTIVE fix, trapping these critters and slashing their numbers. Doctor's, consider a 28-day Vaseline trial for your patients. If effective, this simple hack might save billions on indefinite treatments. https://t.co/q8XZ05EZJt

@BioLayne Have you finally put your big boy pants on. Are you now ready for our long agreed debate? Otherwise I'm genuinely curious at what vacuous excuse you will come up with next.

[Paul Mason MD @DrPaulMason]

@ben3bil @2025__truth I speculate that any die-off which occurs with vaseline is outside the hair follicles, and therefore less likely to trigger inflammation.

[Paul Mason MD @DrPaulMason]

@trevorsmithmd I just check a container. Didn't see it. Do you have any references that vaseline is contraindicated on the eyelids? No matter if you don't. I just like to separate opinion from fact.

[Paul Mason MD @DrPaulMason]

@dementiamites This is very thought provoking. One issue I see is that sebum composition is heavily influenced by diet, which is also a risk factor for parkinson's. Whether the relationship is associational or causal remains to be determined.

[Paul Mason MD @DrPaulMason]

Not only has this been conclusively and consistently shown in the literature, we have known this for a long time. For reference, this was published in Nature in 1964 with the title - "Changes in the Fatty Acid Composition of Sebum associated with High Carbohydrate Diets". I therefore don't think my claim that diet influences sebum composition to be a 'scam'. https://t.co/zEbQth2o2x

[Paul Mason MD @DrPaulMason]

@scorpioniagara @DrEades Agreed on @dreades - he has been at the forefront for a long time now.

[Paul Mason MD @DrPaulMason]

@Amonhohohotep That could suggest more fungal involvement. It may be relevant that demodex can also serve as a carrier of fungi.
