Robert A. Mikos of Vanderbilt, the LaRoche Family Chair in Law is an intelligent person to listen to. Long history of interpretation of federal and state laws regarding cannabis.
@PierreKory@MidwesternDoc My brother has been diagnosed with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). Could DMSO possibly help? He feels no better on expensive pharmaceutical medication. THANK YOU!!!
@BaagaddBilla@SamaHoole Bayer bought it because they have the patent for medications to treat lymphoma caused by their own product. Genius move to make more money
@tomangell Well there is the cannabis industry’s slam dunk, mic drop moment! To get off schedule one all we need is one medical use and there we have 5+
Nearly half the fat inside a human artery plaque is omega-6 from vegetable oil.
Somebody took the plaques out and weighed what was in them.
A London team pulled them from men who had died of heart disease, then compared each plaque against the fat on that man's own body, which is a decades-long record of what he had been eating.
The omega-6 in the body fat matched the omega-6 in the plaque.
The omega-6 in the blood matched the omega-6 in the plaque.
The saturated fat matched nothing at all.
Three years later the same group counted 668 plaques taken from thirty men dead of ischaemic heart disease.
Omega-6 came to between 44 and 46 per cent of all the fat in them.
Which is what you would expect, because of how a plaque is actually built.
An LDL particle has to oxidise before a macrophage will swallow it. The macrophage becomes a foam cell. The foam cell becomes the plaque. Every cardiologist on earth agrees on that sequence.
Oxidation starts by tearing a hydrogen off a fatty acid, and it can only tear one off a polyunsaturated fat. A saturated molecule offers nothing to grab. A monounsaturated molecule barely does.
So linoleic acid is the ingredient the disease requires. It is the thing that goes rancid, gets eaten, and gets left in the artery wall.
Saturated fat cannot perform that reaction. It has never been chemically capable of it.
The Lancet printed the first paper in 1994, and the authors wrote plainly that the push towards eating more polyunsaturated fat ought to be reconsidered.
Nobody reconsidered anything.
Butter has served thirty years for a crime the frying oil committed, and the evidence was on the slab the whole time.
In 1919 a New York physician got so fed up with watching his patients get worse that he went to a museum to ask the dead for advice.
His name was Blake Donaldson. He had a practice full of people who were overweight, ill, and getting steadily worse no matter what the medicine of the day threw at them, and he had run clean out of ideas. So he walked into the American Museum of Natural History, found the anthropologists, and asked them the question no respectable doctor was supposed to ask. What did healthy humans actually eat before all of this?
They showed him the skulls. Ancient ones. Pre-agricultural ones. And the teeth stopped him in his tracks. No decay. No crowding. No abscesses. Rows of clean, strong, untroubled teeth belonging to people who had never met a dentist, a toothbrush, or a sack of flour. The anthropologists told him about the Plains hunters who lived on buffalo, and about pemmican, the dense brick of dried meat and rendered fat that carried men through a North American winter on next to nothing else.
Donaldson went back to his surgery and did something that would get a modern doctor hauled in front of a committee. He put his patients on meat.
Fat meat, specifically. Roughly six ounces of lean with two ounces of visible fat, three times a day, from beef or lamb. Coffee. Water. That was the prescription. He stripped out what he called the worst offenders, the flour and the sugar and the sweet milk, and he watched what happened.
What happened was they got better. The weight came off without hunger, because he insisted they eat enough and eat often. The blood pressure settled. The gallstones, the migraines, the aching joints, the sour stomachs, the whole catalogue of modern complaints he had been failing to shift for years began, quietly, to resolve. He kept going. By the end he had run something like seventeen thousand patients through this regime over roughly forty years, which is a working lifetime of evidence rather than a passing fad.
He wrote it down in a book called Strong Medicine in 1961.
The establishment's response was swift and familiar. One prominent figure pronounced the book hardly scientific. Another filed Donaldson under food faddism and implied he had simply forgotten whatever he once knew about nutrition. A man with forty years of patient outcomes was waved off by people armed with a theory and a grievance, and the profession moved smoothly on to the low-fat advice that has served us so brilliantly ever since.
He was not a guru and never pretended to be one. He thought he was just copying what those museum skulls had been quietly demonstrating for ten thousand years, which is about the most honest thing a doctor has ever said about diet.
The book is still in print. The skulls are still in the case. And the advice that buried him is still printed on the side of the cereal box.
🚨BREAKING: RFK Jr. pushes back on Trump’s glyphosate executive order: “Not something I was particularly happy with — to put it mildly.”
"Pesticides are poison. They're designed to kill all life."
"I've spent 40 years fighting pesticides. We won three cases in a row and then got an $11 billion settlement with Monsanto."
It’s the scientific breakthrough we’ve been waiting for !
And an exasperated Dr John Campbell says this can’t be ignored any longer.
A New Zealand preprint trilogy on the white fibrous clots (called anomalous intravascular casts) confirms they have never been seen before 2021. After the rollout of the jab.
Dr Bruce Rapley-
‘This is not just a big blood clot. This is a fundamentally different architecture. The profound deficiency in plasminogen is like a building a structure impervious to future demolition -ITS DESIGNED TO PERSIST.’
Given all we’ve learned from the Epstein files it’s hard to believe this was not intentional !
@MidwesternDoc@VigilantFox I am “involved” with organ donation. I am a full time critical care nurse and I know exactly how this works in my state. There are specific steps that we take to verify that a patient is brain dead. nuclear isotope infusion tests which verify no brain blood flow.
🚨BREAKING: It’s now coming out that Somalis buy homes in Minnesota to use as “home care,” they sit empty, then bill the state for MILLIONS per year
455 homes CONFIRMED.
What's your response to this......??👀
MAKE THIS GO VIRAL ON 𝕏. LET’S GO 👏
Mockery? Trump's rescheduling to Schedule III is smart policy..recognizing medical value, easing research that's been blocked for decades, and aligning with science over failed prohibition hysteria.
Your "platform" whining ignores that this curbs black markets, funds treatment with billions in taxes, and drops youth use to historic lows.
FDA enforcement..It's built-in for Schedule III same as other meds lmao.
No "mockery," just progress you fearmongers hate because it exposes your reefer madness as outdated bullshit.Pot "makes you dumber"? Debunked myth..millions use responsibly, outperforming alcohol abusers any day.
Keep crying while legalization wins. Sad in 2025.
THIS IS WHY I VOTED FOR DONALD J TRUMP! Rescheduling marijuana is a massive victory for cancer patients across the country, as it finally validates the plant’s incredible medical potential and clears the path for advanced research into pain management and symptom relief. While others played politics, Trump had the courage to take a stand, ensuring that those fighting the toughest battles of their lives can access the treatments they need without federal interference. By slashing the red tape and treating cannabis as legitimate medicine, he’s proven once again that he’s the only leader willing to fight the system to deliver real, life-changing results for the American people.
