Omega 3 supplements are good for our brains, right?

Well… a new study suggests the opposite, that they accelerate cognitive decline in older adults.

Before you condemn all omega 3s to another fad medicine got wrong, let's talk about what this study actually shows and what it doesn't. 🧵

🚨🚨 Las grandes farmacéuticas siguen cambiando premeditadamente los valores de presión arterial convirtiendo a personas sanas en pacientes crónicos para obtener beneficios...
Cambios históricos "normales" de la presión arterial:
- 1940: 100 + tu edad (por ejemplo, 170/95 de multa para una persona de 70 años)
- 1970: 160/90
- 2000: 140/90
- 2025: Debe ser inferior a 120/80, o se considera "hipertenso".
La máquina de ganancias:
- Los medicamentos antihipertensivos generaron 36.700 millones de dólares solo en 2024.
- Umbrales más bajos = más diagnósticos = más recetas de por vida
- Los medicamentos no solucionan las causas fundamentales, solo los síntomas, lo que lleva a tomar más pastillas para los efectos secundarios...
💊💊Peligros ocultos de los medicamentos para la presión arterial:
- Tos crónica
- Bajo en sodio y potasio
- Mareos y dolores de cabeza
- Deshidratación y calambres musculares
- Gota y dolor articular
- Insomnio, pesadillas y depresión
- Ritmo cardíaco lento y palpitaciones
- Síntomas del asma
- Disfunción sexual/eréctil
- Desmayos y problemas renales
- Angioedema (hinchazón de la cara/lengua)
- La presión arterial muy baja aumenta el riesgo de enfermedades crónicas y mortalidad, especialmente en personas mayores.

It happened to me. I went low carb after my heart attack. My fasting insulin dropped. My triglycerides fell. My inflammation markers improved. Everything was moving in the right direction.

Then my HbA1c went up.

My doctor looked concerned. The number said I was getting worse. But every other marker said I was getting healthier than I had ever been.

Here is what nobody explains.

HbA1c measures how much sugar has stuck to your red blood cells over their lifespan. Normal red blood cells live 90 to 120 days. The sicker you are, the shorter they live. In poorly controlled diabetics, red blood cells can die in as few as 81 days.

When you clean up your diet, lower your insulin, and reduce inflammation, your red blood cells start living LONGER. Studies show they can live up to 145 days in healthy people.

Longer living blood cells are exposed to glucose for more days. More days of exposure means more glycation. More glycation means a higher HbA1c reading.

Your A1c went up because your blood cells stopped dying early.

That is not a failure. That is your body healing.

JUST IN: 🇷🇺🇺🇦🇫🇷 Russia May Be Facing a New Nightmare, Ukraine Could Start Producing France's SCALP Cruise Missile

This isn't just another missile.

It's a long range precision strike weapon built to hit the targets military planners value most, deep behind enemy lines.

The French SCALP can travel more than 250 km, fly at very low altitude to reduce detection, and unleash a devastating 450 kg bunker-busting warhead capable of destroying underground bunkers, command centers, air bases, ammunition depots, bridges, and other critical military infrastructure with remarkable precision.

If Ukraine begins producing SCALP missiles domestically, it could significantly expand its long range strike capability while reducing reliance on foreign deliveries.

One missile.
One target.
One devastating impact.

🚨 A Cleveland Clinic trial just tested six of the most popular cholesterol supplements on the market against a low-dose statin.
Not one supplement beat placebo on a single lipid or inflammatory marker.
But the 5mg rosuvastatin cut LDL by over 50%.
And no, this was not a Big Pharma study designed to make supplements look bad.

🫀 Here is what the science actually says.

The trial, published in JACC, tested cinnamon, fish oil, garlic, turmeric, plant sterols, and red yeast rice head-to-head against placebo and low-dose rosuvastatin (5mg daily).

The result: zero. Not one supplement outperformed placebo on any lipid marker or any inflammatory marker. Not even close.

Meanwhile, rosuvastatin at just 5mg delivered LDL-C reductions of over 50% in participants. Zero instances of LDL increase. Zero.

💓 Let that sink in.

The dose they tested was 5mg. The standard starting dose is 10 to 20mg. And it still demolished every supplement in the study by every metric measured.

🔬 Here is the argument I make that nobody wants to hear.

If fish oil, turmeric, or red yeast rice genuinely contained a molecule that lowered cardiovascular risk in a clinically meaningful way, pharmaceutical companies would have already isolated that molecule, patented a synthetic version, run the Phase 3 trials, and sold it back to you at $400 a month.

That is how drug discovery works. That is what happened with statins. That is what happened with PCSK9 inhibitors. The industry follows the evidence because the evidence follows the money.

The fact that no one has done this with any supplement tells you something. The active molecule does not exist at the dose or bioavailability found in a capsule you buy at a health food store.

⚠️ The supplements people take instead of proven therapy are not harmless.

The harm is not always direct toxicity. The harm is the delay. Every month a patient spends convinced their cholesterol is being "managed" by a supplement is a month of unchecked LDL accumulation in arterial walls.

❌ Cinnamon will not save you.
❌ Fish oil will not save you.
❌ Garlic will not save you.
❌ Turmeric will not save you.
❌ Plant sterols will not save you.
❌ Red yeast rice will not save you.

The tools with the strongest data are unsexy, free, and require your participation.

🩺 A patient who switches from a supplement routine to evidence-based lipid management can see LDL drop 50% or more within 6 to 8 weeks.

That is the difference between progressive plaque burden and actual cardiovascular risk reduction.

❤️ Bottom line:

Supplements are not alternative medicine for heart disease. They are unproven products sold to people who are scared and deserve better information.

This Cleveland Clinic trial enrolled real patients. It tested real products. It found real results. The supplements failed across every single marker measured.

Stop spending money on capsules that beat placebo by exactly zero percent.

Talk to a cardiologist. Get your LDL measured. Ask about your actual risk. Use the tools that work.

The question is no longer whether supplements help your heart. The question is why you are still waiting to use what actually does.

What is fueling the stock mania?

The answer is: borrowed money.

In May, total margin debt in brokerage accounts registered a record one-month increase of $111 billion, pushing the total amount to $1.42 trillion. That 8.5% increase in margin debt accompanied a 5% increase in the S&P. The latest reading does not include debt used to buy SpaceX, which came public this month.

Creatine, long celebrated for supporting muscle growth and athletic performance, is gaining recognition in neuroscience as a powerful aid for brain energy management—especially under demanding conditions like mental stress, intense cognitive effort, or sleep deprivation.

As the brain's primary energy currency, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) gets rapidly depleted during high-demand tasks. Creatine helps by facilitating the quick recycling of ATP through the phosphocreatine system, providing neurons with a more reliable energy buffer to sustain performance when demands spike.

Recent systematic reviews and meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials have quantified these effects. A 2024 meta-analysis (Xu et al., Frontiers in Nutrition) found that creatine monohydrate supplementation significantly improved memory performance, with a standardized mean difference (SMD) of 0.31 (95% CI: 0.17–0.44; equivalent to Hedges' g ≈ 0.30), alongside benefits in information processing speed and attention time in some measures. An earlier 2023 meta-analysis (Prokopidis et al., Nutrition Reviews) reported an overall SMD of 0.29 for memory enhancement in healthy individuals, with particularly strong effects in older adults (SMD = 0.88 in those aged 66–76 years).

While this 0.31 SMD reflects a modest-to-moderate standardized effect size (not a literal 31% raw improvement in every person or task), it indicates meaningful gains in memory, mental clarity, and processing efficiency—especially when the brain is challenged.

Benefits tend to be most evident in specific groups: older adults (who may have lower baseline brain creatine), vegetarians/vegans (with naturally reduced dietary intake), females, and those experiencing sleep deprivation or high mental fatigue. Emerging research is also exploring creatine's therapeutic potential for neurological conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, traumatic brain injury, depression, and mild cognitive impairment, though evidence remains preliminary and strongest for memory support.

Creatine isn't a miracle cure or standalone fix—it's best viewed as a supportive nutrient that bolsters brain resilience. Experts stress the need for more large-scale, long-term studies to clarify optimal dosing, duration, and broader impacts on neurological health.

[Xu C, et al. (2024). The effects of creatine supplementation on cognitive function in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Frontiers in Nutrition, 11:1424972. doi:10.3389/fnut.2024.1424972]

Coconut oil pulling offers a simple, natural way to support better oral hygiene—potentially as easy as using a spoonful of the oil in your mouth.

Recent research highlights its role as a scientifically supported antimicrobial practice that can help reduce harmful oral bacteria, plaque accumulation, and early signs of gum inflammation (gingivitis).

The key active component is lauric acid, which comprises about 45–50% of virgin coconut oil. When swished around the mouth, the oil mixes with saliva, undergoing saponification (a soap-like reaction) that helps mechanically dislodge debris and exert antibacterial effects. Studies show this process can significantly lower counts of Streptococcus mutans—the main bacterium responsible for tooth decay and plaque—while also decreasing plaque scores, gingival inflammation, and bleeding in cases of plaque-induced gingivitis.

For best results, take 1 tablespoon of virgin (unrefined) coconut oil, swish it gently for 15–20 minutes on an empty stomach (ideally in the morning), then spit it into the trash (not the sink, to prevent pipe clogs). Follow with your regular brushing and flossing routine.

While evidence from systematic reviews and randomized trials (including meta-analyses up to 2024–2025) supports moderate benefits for reducing plaque, gingival indices, and bacterial loads—often comparable to chlorhexidine mouthwash in short-term use—oil pulling is not a cure-all. It does not reverse advanced gum disease (periodontitis), regenerate lost gum tissue or bone, or replace professional dental care, scaling, root planing, or prescribed treatments. It works best as a complementary adjunct to standard oral hygiene practices.

Experts, including those from the American Dental Association and recent reviews, note that while promising, more high-quality, large-scale studies are needed for definitive long-term conclusions. Always consult your dentist before adding new routines, especially if you have existing oral health issues.
