@soarathena@SenSanders Yes but somehow, our system has lost the priority that caring for people comes before a profit. RFK Jr wants to address this issue, but Bernie doesn’t like that.
BREASTMILK
She thought she was studying milk.
What she uncovered was a conversation.
In 2008, evolutionary anthropologist Katie Hinde was working in a primate research lab in California, analyzing breast milk from rhesus macaque mothers. She had hundreds of samples and thousands of data points. Everything looked ordinary—until one pattern refused to go away.
Mothers raising sons produced milk richer in fat and protein.
Mothers raising daughters produced a larger volume with different nutrient balances.
It was consistent. Repeatable. And deeply uncomfortable for the scientific consensus.
Colleagues suggested error. Noise. Statistical coincidence.
But Katie trusted the data.
And the data pointed to a radical idea.
Milk is not just nutrition.
It is information.
For decades, biology treated breast milk as simple fuel. Calories in. Growth out. But if milk were only calories, why would it change depending on the sex of the baby?
Katie kept digging.
Across more than 250 mothers and over 700 sampling events, the story grew more complex. Younger, first-time mothers produced milk with fewer calories but significantly higher levels of cortisol—the stress hormone.
The babies who drank it grew faster.
They were also more alert, more cautious, more anxious.
Milk wasn’t just building bodies.
It was shaping behavior.
Then came the discovery that changed everything.
When a baby nurses, microscopic amounts of saliva flow back into the breast. That saliva carries biological signals about the infant’s immune system. If the baby is getting sick, the mother’s body detects it.
Within hours, the milk changes.
White blood cells surge.
Macrophages multiply.
Targeted antibodies appear.
When the baby recovers, the milk returns to baseline.
This was not coincidence.
It was call and response.
A biological dialogue refined over millions of years. Invisible—until someone thought to listen.
As Katie reviewed existing research, she noticed something unsettling. There were twice as many scientific studies on erectile dysfunction as on breast milk composition.
The first food every human consumes.
The substance that shaped our species.
Largely ignored.
So she did something bold.
She launched a blog with a deliberately provocative name: Mammals Suck Milk.
It exploded. Over a million readers in its first year. Parents. Doctors. Scientists. People asking questions research had skipped.
The discoveries kept coming.
Milk changes by time of day.
Foremilk differs from hindmilk.
Human milk contains over 200 oligosaccharides babies can’t digest—because they exist to feed beneficial gut bacteria.
Every mother’s milk is biologically unique.
In 2017, Katie brought this work to a TED stage. In 2020, it reached a global audience through Netflix’s Babies. Today, at Arizona State University’s Comparative Lactation Lab, she continues reshaping how medicine understands infant development, neonatal care, formula design, and public health.
The implications are staggering.
Milk has been evolving for more than 200 million years—longer than dinosaurs walked the Earth. What we once dismissed as simple nourishment is one of the most sophisticated communication systems biology has ever produced.
Katie Hinde didn’t just study milk.
She revealed that nourishment is intelligence.
A living, responsive system shaping who we become before we ever speak.
All because one scientist refused to accept that half the story was “measurement error.”
Sometimes the biggest revolutions begin by listening to what everyone else ignores.
@ClubofRome_The@doc_rudman@FLSurgeonGen@GovRonDeSantis@JamesUthmeierFL I don’t believe Type 1 diabetes can be totally controlled just with diet people who want to go against what their doctor says should be able to get a second opinion I would think. Maybe some people need things explained differently or more thoroughly.
@JohnnieMcForMS@RealJamesWoods Yes, she really must’ve got that quote wrong and I’m not even familiar with it. She doesn’t seem to comprehend what she’s saying.
Alzheimer’s research has been plagued by fraud, misleading studies, and wasted billions for decades. On my podcast today, investigative journalist @CPiller exposes the misconduct, the FDA’s role in bad drug approvals, and what could truly help fight cognitive decline.
@marcorubio Good work. There will be more credibility that you are working for fairness and for the people if this administration will also take steps to have billionaires pay their fair share in taxes
Victor Davis Hanson tells you the truth about why everyone is attacking Elon Musk
The Truth Exposed: “Have you noticed that the crescendo of hatred toward Elon Musk is becoming surreal?”
“We had a congresswoman from Ohio, her name was Marcy Kaptur, she recently said that she wasn't sure where Elon Musk loyalties lay because he'd only been a citizen for 22 years.
Elon Musk is a naturalized citizen.
This is very interesting because remember the left says that people who are here illegally and not citizens should gain all of the protections and rights of citizens. They should be de-facto citizens. Anybody who would question a naturalized citizen's loyalty according to the left would be xenophobic, nativist”
“This follows a whole series of personal attacks:
- We had posters in Washington, D.C. saying, Eliminate Musk
- We had a man arrested from Indiana online for promising, threatening to kill Elon Musk
- Here in California, we have Representative Garcia, he was on television and he said that Elon Musk was a D-I-C-K, and when called on it he said you had to bring weapons, i.e. against Musk, for this bar fight. Weapons
- Then we had this unhinged minister, Steve Caudle from Tennessee, he got up in his pulpit, and it was televised, and he said that Elon Musk was satanic, a devil, and sometimes you had to use violence to stop such devilry
“We have turned someone who has
- Saved the U.S. space program and will probably save two astronauts who otherwise would perish in space if it was left to the government program.
- Who reinvented the entire auto industry
- Who opened up all of social media with X
We have turned this person into a demon, a disloyal demon, a traitor, someone that we smear and we slander all day long for what?
For saying that the $36 trillion in debt and the $1.5 to $2 trillion + Joe Biden in some years had $5 and $6 trillion deficits are unsustainable?
And through a series of revenue enhancements and drastic cuts of programs that are unnecessary, we can get near a balanced budget
He takes no money. He's not confirmed as the head of a government agency, but of course there's all sorts of deputies and heads of agencies that require no confirmation, including the National Security Advisor of the United States of America.”
“I think it's time to stop this because if you continue this rhetoric, somebody as this person in Indiana or this minister in Tennessee is going to openly call for violence if they have not already against one of the most iconic Americans in our history.”
DOGE must investigate this and this must be outlawed.
