Gelje Sherpa was taking a private client up Mt. Everest when he noticed someone dying just 500 meters from the summit. So he ran over, wrapped him in a sleeping mattress, gave him oxygen, put him on his back, and hiked him 6 hours down the mountain to safety.

एक महिला देश के लिए कितना भी यश और गौरव कमा ले, पितृसत्तात्मक समाज उसे याद दिला ही देगा कि सत्ताधीश मर्द फिर चाहे २ कौड़ी का यौन हिंसक ही क्यों न हो, क़ीमत तो उसी के अहंकार की है, महिला के आंसुओं की नहीं।

This is heartbreaking. Shameless politicians. No words to describe this act of using the sorrow of a mother for political gains.
Very sad to see this.
These people are worse than vultures.

Fighting pseudoscience and superstition in India was always going to be a losing battle but Liver Doc tried 👏
I think more than his expose on traditional/alternative 'medicine' what really pissed people off was him saying Haldi doesn't work 😅

What happens when a bullsh*tting integrative holistic wellness coach meets the pseudoscience poster boy of India? Intense mental constipation and explosive verbal diarrhea.

In todays edition of "This Does Not Happen", we discuss "Fasting, Gut Health and Gut "Reset."

First, intergrated medicine is a fraudulent practice. And make no mistake, functional medicine is too.
See here https://t.co/xvzGQTX9xH and here https://t.co/tJSz0wv8Hv

Fasting is overrated.
For those who did not understand that
Overrated meaning: valued too highly or have a higher opinion of (someone or something) than is deserved.

There is nothing called as "gut health." Microbiome scientists have never identified or defined what a "healthy microbiome in the gut is," but have only figured out some beneficial gut bacteria.

Every holistic coach, every alternative medicine practitioner, every half-baked gastroenterologist (*cough* Pal *cough* *cough*), every overconfident nutritionist and science-defying dietitian-influencer on the internet has abused the word "gut health" so much that it has started featuring on Ayurvedic, Homeopathic and Naturopathic products which science-illiterate people lap up wholesale.

Trust me, none of them have any clue what the gut microbiome means and what its functionality & potential truly are. No one knows in fact and medical science is only figuring it out - one step at a time.

The only time where medical science actually found value of a "gut reset" is the role of healthy donor stool transplant to treat severe, recurrent Clostridium difficile infections.

Fasting does modulate the intestinal bacteria.
But NOT so much that it RESETS the whole gastrointestinal system.
It is quite stupid to think of it that way.

Fasting was shown to increase populations of certain bacteria. But this is in no way a "detox" (another fraudulent wellness selling term) and no way a "reset."

For example, when the gut is empty, mucosal slime inside intestines increase and a specific bacteria that feeds of the slime outcompetes other bacteria and increases - called Lachnospira. That is not a reset at all.

Every study on fasting and "gut health" has been very basic, based on biochemical or molecular parameters and none clinically translated into beneficial interventions.
https://t.co/uubq9MTKPV

Even the other commonly used term "autophagy" in the exercise/diet/nutrition/health-influencer circles is complete hocus pocus. Yes, autopaghy exists, but there is absolutely NO clinical evidence that such a process with fasting does anyone anything good.
"Fasting and autophagy" related speculative benefits have NOT yet been demonstrated in real-world clinical trials involving people.
https://t.co/xMZVW5XOec

Fast is you feel like it. If you can tolerate it. If you are pious and your religion warrants it.

But dont think its resetting anything, other than your confirmational bias, which has been strengthened by your personal, anecdotal experience which is further strengthened by your exposure to videos that "hijack science sounding terms" narrated by "overconfident medical-science-pirates," who keep lying, day in and day out on the internet.
