I covered this a few years ago, sunscreen actually causes cancer, sounds crazy, but the biggest studies shows that.

The kind of cancer you get from the sun is Basal Cell carcinoma, which is not deadly, the survival rate from basal cell after five years is 100%

Lack of sun is deadly & gives you the kind of cancer that is deadly. They’ve known this since the 30’s .

@IanCarrollShow Man, those are humbling words.

I’m rarely at a loss for words, but you left me speechless here.

Thank you. Truly. You invested a lot of time into helping me find my way, and I count those moments as treasures.

Thank you for your kindness, and thank you for your friendship.

@IanCarrollShow I also love that he lets his audience know that his viewership isn’t a numbers game; if you don’t have a High IQ, you’re not allowed to watch. LMAO.

It’s an advanced placement course and if you didn’t meet the requirements, oh well. Study up for next year, champ.

Can we just take a minute to give this king his flowers.

Baron basically started his podcast less than a year ago and today he’s deservedly one of the best (and top) podcasts on the internet.

I don’t think there’s ever been a more impressive or well deserved rise in online information-media than Baron’s. And he’s still just in his opening act.

And it’s because he is not only a generational talent who works like a dog and was made for this, but also because he’s a genuinely good dude, good dad, god fearing man.

Be more like Baron. 🇺🇸

I'm a cardiologist. After 40, stop guessing about your health. These numbers tell you whether you're building a long, vibrant life — or quietly declining without knowing it.

I run these on myself. I run them on every patient I care about. Most are cheap bloodwork. All are available now. And together, they paint a picture no standard annual physical will ever give you. Print this. Bring it to your next appointment. Your 60-year-old self will thank you.
ꟷꟷꟷ
𝗙𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝗶𝗻
Target: below 5 μIU/mL. Ideal: 3-4.
This is the 10-year warning bell your standard panel completely misses. Your glucose and A1c can look "normal" for a decade while your pancreas is working overtime to keep them there. Fasting insulin catches insulin resistance 5-10 years before your A1c moves. By the time A1c rises, the damage is already extensive.

𝗛𝗢𝗠𝗔-𝗜𝗥
Target: below 1.0.
Calculated from fasting insulin and fasting glucose. The single best measure of insulin sensitivity. Above 1.0 and your metabolism is already under strain. Above 2.5 and you're insulin resistant — even if every other number looks fine.

𝗛𝗯𝗔𝟭𝗰
Target: below 5.4%.
Not below 5.7% — that's the threshold where medicine calls you "prediabetic." By then you've been metabolically compromised for years. Optimal is below 5.4%. Blood sugar mastery is longevity mastery.

𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗹𝘆𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲 : 𝗛𝗗𝗟 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼
Target: below 2. Ideal: below 1.
Your metabolic health crystal ball. This ratio predicts insulin resistance, cardiovascular risk, and metabolic syndrome better than any single lipid number alone. A ratio above 3.5 is a red flag regardless of what your total cholesterol says.

𝗔𝗽𝗼𝗕
Target: below 80 mg/dL for moderate risk. Below 60 for high risk.
I've written about this extensively. ApoB counts every atherogenic particle hitting your artery walls. A 2024 analysis found 54% of patients had dangerous levels that standard LDL testing completely missed. If you only know your LDL, you're driving with one eye closed.

𝗟𝗽(𝗮)
Test once in your lifetime.
100% genetic. 1 in 5 Americans are elevated. Triples heart attack risk independently of everything else on this list. Diet and exercise cannot lower it. The 2026 ACC/AHA guidelines now recommend everyone be tested. Most never have been.

𝗵𝘀-𝗖𝗥𝗣
Target: below 1.0 mg/L.
You can have perfect cholesterol and inflamed arteries silently preparing to rupture. hs-CRP measures the fire behind the plaque. The JUPITER trial proved that finding and treating inflammation saves lives — even when lipids look fine. If this number is elevated, your mouth, your gut, your metabolic health, and your visceral fat are the first places to investigate.

𝗩𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻 𝗗
Target: 50-80 ng/mL.
Not the bare minimum of 30 your doctor accepts. Suboptimal vitamin D is linked to higher inflammation, weaker immunity, increased cardiovascular events, worse mood, and poorer outcomes across nearly every disease I treat. Supplement D3 with K2 — without K2, calcium deposits in your arteries instead of your bones.

𝗧𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗲 (𝗧𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗹 + 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲)
Men: optimal range 600-1000+ ng/dL total.
Declining testosterone is an independent predictor of cardiovascular death in men. It's tied to insulin resistance, arterial stiffness, visceral fat accumulation, and systemic inflammation. DHEA-S drops 10-20% every decade after 30. Tracking these isn't about vanity — it's evaluating your body's systemic resilience.

𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲
Target: below 120/80. Aim closer to 110/70.
Every point above optimal is cumulative arterial damage. Buy a home cuff. Measure morning and evening, seated quietly for five minutes, arm at heart level. White-coat readings in the office miss what's really happening. The smartest $40 investment in cardiac self-care.

𝗩𝗢𝟮 𝗠𝗮𝘅
Men over 40: above 40 mL/kg/min. Women over 40: above 35.
Cardiorespiratory fitness is the single strongest predictor of all-cause mortality — stronger than smoking, diabetes, or heart disease as individual risk factors. A landmark study in JAMA found that extreme fitness was associated with the lowest mortality with no upper limit of benefit. You can estimate VO2 max with a timed mile, a rower test, or a wearable. Get faster every year.

𝗡𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀
Target: as few as possible.
Every medication you're on should be earning its place. I just wrote about five commonly prescribed drugs that do more harm than good with long-term use. Bring your full medication list to every appointment. Ask: "Do I still need this?" Deprescribing is one of the most powerful and underused tools in medicine.
ꟷꟷꟷ

Thirteen numbers. Most available through cheap bloodwork and simple tests. Get them once or twice a year. Here's what I want you to understand: these numbers don't just tell you where you are. They tell you where you're heading. A fasting insulin of 8 today becomes diabetes in five years. An ApoB of 120 today becomes a heart attack in ten. An hs-CRP of 3 today means your arteries are inflamed right now — regardless of how healthy you feel. The standard annual physical checks a fraction of these. It was designed to find disease that's already there. This panel finds the disease that's coming — years before it arrives.

What gets measured gets improved. Optimize with the foundation I write about every week on this platform:
Zone 2 cardio plus resistance training 3-4 times per week. High-protein whole-food nutrition. Sleep 7-9 hours — non-negotiable. Morning sunlight. Stress management. And the targeted supplements I've covered in detail — creatine, magnesium, CoQ10, D3+K2, glycine, omega-3, psyllium husk.
The breakthroughs coming in the next decade — gene editing for cholesterol, cellular reprogramming, senolytics that clear senescent "zombie" cells driving inflammation and aging, GLP-1 drugs rewriting metabolic medicine — will be most powerful for people who've already built the metabolic foundation to receive them.

The future of medicine is personalized. But it starts with knowing your numbers today. Print this list. Book the bloodwork. Own the data. Prevention isn't passive. It's the most aggressive thing you can do for the decades ahead.

‼️EXPOSED: Candace Owens Was RIGHT— Here's PROOF That Suggest One Of Charlie Kirk’s “Witnesses” Is A CRISIS Actor😱

Yesterday on her show, Candace Owens called out several of the early witnesses interviewed after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, pointing out how scripted and inconsistent their stories sounded. While she didn’t name him directly, one of the witnesses who quickly made the rounds on local news that day was Skylar Baird.

New footage has now surfaced from 2012 showing Baird under a different name — Robbie Parker — at a Sandy Hook press conference. In the video, he’s caught on a hot mic laughing, smiling, and joking with the crew just seconds before the cameras start rolling. The moment the countdown hits zero, the smile disappears and he instantly switches into an emotional, grieving father mode.

This is the same man who positioned himself extremely close to Charlie Kirk during the assassination and later gave multiple interviews repeating the same story. He’s also a member of the Screen Actors Guild and has a documented history of inserting himself into high-profile national events.

Even more alarming, when independent journalist @Niss_Cee interviewed him, Baird made several statements that only raised more red flags — including admitting he “hoped there wouldn’t be a shooting” before the UVU event, and casually mentioning getting a call from an Israeli radio station right after Charlie was killed. Even his own kid think's he was involved.

Google Trends data also showed unusual spikes for searches related to Skylar Baird coming from Israel and Washington D.C. in the days leading up to the assassination.
This isn’t a grieving witness. This is a professional operator who has been deployed before.

MASSIVE 110-MILE-WIDE RINGS JUST APPEARED OVER OKLAHOMA

For nearly three hours, something unusual was showing up over Oklahoma.

Not in one location.

Not on a small scale.

These circular pulses stretched more than 110 miles wide and appeared repeatedly as storms developed across the state.

The rings were so large they could be seen spanning huge sections of Oklahoma at a time.

Perfect circles.

Expanding bands.

A signature that looked like something had pressed itself into the atmosphere.

What do you think leaves behind a signature like this?

Silver is getting beaten to a pulp! As I warned in March, this was largely caused by Trump's decision to start a war with Iran, which clobbered global industry and caused physical demand for silver to plunge (since factories that have no energy can't run).

I believe silver prices will stay suppressed or even go lower until energy flows are restored in the Persian Gulf, which at this point looks like 2027 or beyond. The developing AI data center buildout crash is also going to hit silver yet again, whenever that happens.

This is my opinion, NOT financial advice, so be sure to draw your own conclusions. For me, I see this as a stacking opportunity because I know where silver is headed in the long run as dollar devaluation accelerates.

I still vastly prefer owning metals than stocks. The stock market has counter-party risk galore, and I don't trust counterparties when we are this close to a monetary reset event.
