Eating meat is your defence against chronic disease

Lifting heavy weights is your offence

[Ihtesham Ali @ihtesham2005]

A Norwegian neuroscientist spent 20 years proving that the act of writing by hand changes the human brain in ways typing physically cannot, and almost nobody outside her field has read the paper.

Her name is Audrey van der Meer.

She runs a brain research lab in Trondheim, and the paper that closed the argument was published in 2024 in a journal called Frontiers in Psychology. The finding is brutal enough that it should have changed every classroom on Earth.

The experiment was simple. She recruited 36 university students and put each one in a cap with 256 sensors pressed against their scalp to record brain activity. Words flashed on a screen one at a time.

Sometimes the students wrote the word by hand on a touchscreen using a digital pen, and sometimes they typed the same word on a keyboard. Every neural response was recorded for the full five seconds the word stayed on screen.

Then her team looked at the part of the data most researchers had ignored for years, which is how different parts of the brain were communicating with each other during the task.

When the students wrote by hand, the brain lit up everywhere at once.

The regions responsible for memory, sensory integration, and the encoding of new information were all firing together in a coordinated pattern that spread across the entire cortex. The whole network was awake and connected.

When the same students typed the same word, that pattern collapsed almost completely.

Most of the brain went quiet, and the connections between regions that had been alive seconds earlier were nowhere to be found on the EEG.

Same word, same brain, same person, and two completely different neurological events.

The reason turned out to be something nobody had really paid attention to before her work. Writing by hand is not one motion but a sequence of thousands of tiny micro-movements coordinated with your eyes in real time, where each letter is a different shape that requires the brain to solve a slightly different spatial problem.

Your fingers, wrist, vision, and the parts of your brain that track position in space are all working together to produce one letter, then the next, then the next.

Typing throws all of that away. Every key on a keyboard requires the exact same finger motion regardless of which letter you are pressing, which means the brain has almost nothing to integrate and almost no problem to solve.

Van der Meer said it plainly in her interviews.

Pressing the same key with the same finger over and over does not stimulate the brain in any meaningful way, and she pointed out something that should scare every parent who handed their kid an iPad.

Children who learn to read and write on tablets often cannot tell letters like b and d apart, because they have never physically felt with their bodies what it takes to actually produce those letters on a page.

A decade before her, two researchers at Princeton ran the same fight using a completely different method and ended up at the same answer. Pam Mueller and Daniel Oppenheimer tested 327 students across three experiments, where half took notes on laptops with the internet disabled and half took notes by hand, before testing everyone on what they actually understood from the lectures they had watched.

The handwriting group won by a wide margin on every question that required real understanding rather than surface recall.

The reason was hiding in the transcripts of what the two groups had actually written down.

The laptop students typed almost word for word, capturing more total content but processing almost none of it as they went, while the handwriting students physically could not write fast enough to transcribe a lecture in real time, which forced them to listen carefully, decide what actually mattered, and put it in their own words on the page.

That single act of choosing what to keep was the learning itself, and the keyboard had quietly skipped the choosing and skipped the learning along with it.

Two studies. Two countries. Same answer.

Handwriting makes the brain work. Typing lets it coast.

Every note you have ever typed instead of written went into your brain through a thinner pipe. Every meeting, every book highlight, every idea you captured on your phone instead of on paper was processed at half depth.

You did not forget those things because your memory is bad. You forgot them because typing never woke the part of the brain that would have made them stick.

The fix is the thing your grandmother already knew.

Pick up a pen. Write the thing down. The slower road is the faster one.

[el gato malo @boriquagato]

you're villifying the wrong people and arguing by false equivalence, simon.

people still trust science, they just do not trust "science imposed upon them by experts at the point of a gun."

no one is saying "airplanes don't fly" or "computers don't compute." they are saying "you lied about climate change, epidemiology, trade offs with products like roundup, GRAS designations, nutrition, race, gender, and 500 other topics>'

and many of these criticisms have validity.

and in response, the experts blame the questioner and demand deference. and those who refuse to engage on facts rarely have the facts on their side.

trust was lost because "the experts" proved not only untrustworthy, but outright dictatorial.

they faked evidence and data, made up wild pseudoscientific theories, and vilified sound science, and pushed utter fakery in its place.

they censored opposition and claimed "the science was settled" to prevent investigation into their frauds. and they forced the whole world at the expense of lives and trillions of dollars of lost welfare to play along.

it was high handed, dishonest, tyranny.

have you stopped to consider that they earned this loss of faith?

because they did.

MIT wrote a literal article about "anti mask twitter" which it vilified by claiming

“most fundamentally, the groups we studied believe that science is a process, not an institution.”

as though it proved we had somehow turned our backs on science. but we did not. science is and must be a process. it is never an institution. that's dogma, not the methods of bacon.

we did not stop trusting science, the experts stopped performing it and were dancing around in the flensed skinsuit of scientific method that they had stripped from the bones that made it valid: dispute, dissent, replication, validation - open and honest discourse.

if you want to win back trust, you need to restore open debate and engagement, share methods, means, and data.

wailing about "they won't trust us!" and blaming the folks who called out the deviation from sound science is just another arrogant presumption for institutions to dictate doctrine.

you want to respect for sceince? start respecting to process of science again.

A new Science Advances study shows offshore wind turbines actually warm the sea surface.

Spikes near as much as one degree Celsius, which is as large as natural summer variability.

Turbines slow the wind, explains the study. This weakens mixing, shuts down upwelling, and in turn traps heat at the surface.

The warming appears within days and spreads tens of kilometers from the wind farm.

These warm waters then heat the air above, creating extra upward heat flux and a more unstable boundary layer.

Stack this onto bird kills, sediment disruption, underwater noise and microplastic shedding, and the picture is clear: Offshore wind isn't solving an environmental problem, it's becoming one.

A new Royal Society study has looked at about 900 animal and plant extinctions over the last 500 years.

It found extinction rates rose into the early 1900s, but have since declined during the past 100 years.

Most losses were on islands, driven mainly by invasive species, habitat loss and exploitation, with "climate change" barely registering.

The paper reveals there is no mass extinction underway. Confirmed extinctions since the year 1500 come in at just 0.4% of species. A real mass extinction event requires a 75% loss.

This doctor has been carnivore for almost 9 years, reversed his pre-diabetes & lost 70+ pounds without counting a single calorie.

Here are 9 crazy truths about fat loss and health mainstream medicine has lied about (#3 will shock you):

1. Calories don't exist inside your body:

"Cholesterol is a nutrient, not a disease."
~Dr Jocelyn Foran, MD

"Cholesterol is an essential building block & required by our 40 trillion cells."

Even the American Heart Association was forced to admit 'Cholesterol is no longer a nutrient of concern' & removed their warning.

Buried on page 91 of the 572 page report, 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee: “Previously, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommended that cholesterol intake be limited to no more than 300 mg/day."

"The 2015 DGAC has halted this advice because available evidence shows no relationship between consumption of dietary cholesterol & serum (blood) cholesterol. Cholesterol is no longer a nutrient of concern for overconsumption."

Dr. Steven Nissen, chairman of cardiovascular medicine at the Cleveland Clinic: “The idea that we needed to limit saturated fat & cholesterol shifted Americans from a well-balanced diet to high-sugar diets, which made people eat more & get fatter.”

The reality, according to Nissen, is that only 15% of circulating cholesterol in the blood comes from what you eat. The other 85% comes from the liver.

"It's the right decision to lift the ban on dietary cholesterol consumption. We got the dietary guidelines wrong. They've been wrong for decades."

"The longest lived people had high Cholesterol...I am a great defender of Cholesterol. It is a molecule of life."
~Dr Ben Bikman, PhD

"Studies on longevity show that we need LDL to fight infections...it is an unsung hero of immunity."

"The higher your LDL, the longer you live."

Lowering LDL thru statin drugs has deadly & deleterious effects.

For example, It has been documented that when LDL drops below 70 mg/dL, hemorrhagic strokes (brain bleeds) increase almost 3 fold.

When total cholesterol is chemically lowered below 180 mg/dL the rate of cancer & dementia increases drastically.

And when total cholesterol stays below 150, chronic illnesses like cancer & autoimmune diseases occur & cannot be healed nor put into remission.

LDL is a transport molecule for cholesterol & is responsible for these key functions:

1) LDL maintains cell membrane structure & keeps electron flow stable.

2) It builds lipid rafts that organize cell signaling & redox balance.

3) LDL delivers fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E & K for critical functions.

4) It transports antioxidants like vitamin E to fight oxidative stress.

5) LDL supplies cholesterol to repair damaged tissues & membranes.

6) It provides raw material for making all steroid hormones.

7) LDL neutralizes bacterial toxins & supports innate immunity.

8) It helps structure water around membranes to maintain charge.

9) LDL buffers electromagnetic energy & supports cellular resilience.

10) It delivers energy-rich triglycerides to keep metabolism flexible.

@wilsonhlthcoach Hi I’m a severe type 1 diabetic on carnivore. If you can just get her into ketosis the food cravings vanish (and the bg spikes). I did it by eating wholly carnivore meal at night—steak and eggs. Zero carbs. Hungry overnight while not yet in ketosis. Morning coffee&cream &walk.🙏

Faith in God brought Andrew Huberman the deepest peace of his life—at 50, after decades of pushing it away.

In this raw 3:42 clip, the neuroscientist opens up:

“I kept resisting the voice in my head that said there’s a God and I’m going to pray.
It felt incompatible with being a scientist.
But recently… I stopped fighting to control everything.
For the first time in my entire life, I’ve experienced sustained, real deep peace.
Everything’s okay. Everything is as it should be.”

He calls it 100% because he gave over to the notion of a higher power—reading the Bible, prayer, faith-based practices.
Not just belief, but active practice.

Even if it all turns out to be neurobiology, he’s good with it.
In the meantime, he’s praying—and it’s transformed his life.

No regrets about science or fitness or family.
The one thing he wishes he’d done earlier? Stop resisting God.

Powerful, vulnerable...
Worth 3 minutes of your time.

ICYMI: Dr. Robert Redfield, a physician and virologist who served as the US CDC Director from 2018-2021, stated during his 2024 Senate testimony under oath:

“There was not appropriate transparency from the beginning about the potential side effects of these (covid) vaccines.. There was inappropriate decisions by some to try to under-report any side effects b/c they argued that would make the public less likely get vaccinated.. One of the greatest mistakes that was made was mandating these vaccines. They should have never been mandated. It should have been open to personal choice. They don't prevent infection. They do have side effects.”

🔥BREAKING: The secret to living to 100+? HIGH CHOLESTEROL!

A massive Swedish study tracking over 800,000 people for 35 years just revealed: Every single centenarian had HIGH total cholesterol. The higher your LDL, the longer you live.

Mind blown yet? Dr. Ben Bikman exposes the lies about cholesterol being "bad."

Key findings from the Sweden AMORIS study:
- All centenarians: High total cholesterol, high iron, low glucose.
- Highest LDL-C = longest lifespans (backed by Dr. Uffe Ravnskov & Dr. Malcolm Kendrick).

Dangers of low cholesterol:
- LDL <70 mg/dL → 3X higher risk of brain-bleeding strokes.
- Total <180 mg/dL → Skyrocketing cancer & dementia rates.
- <150 mg/dL → Increased chronic diseases like cancer & autoimmunity.
- Statins? They don't extend life—damage mitochondria & hormones instead.

Why your body CRAVES cholesterol:
- Builds every cell & powerhouse mitochondria.
- Absorbs vital vitamins A, D, E, K.
- Powers digestion via bile acids.
- Supercharges immunity against infections, viruses, bacteria, pathogens—even cancer.
- Fights depression, suicide, dementia & cognitive decline.
- Shields from toxins, heavy metals, strokes, heart disease & osteoporosis.
- Fuels ALL steroid hormones (low chol = low testosterone & libido).
- Lowers all-cause mortality risk.

Pro tip: Go low-carb, load up on nutrient-dense animal foods. Grass fed beef, pastured eggs, wild caught seafood...Dump seed oils, sugar & processed garbage. Target TG/HDL ratio <1.5 for elite heart health.

Tight budget like me?? Seek out a local farmer, butcher & farm market & make a 'bulk large sale deal' for beef at $5/lb & eggs $4/Dz
