Why Do Milk Drinkers Live Shorter Lives on Average? https://nutritionfacts.org/video/why-do-milk-drinkers-live-shorter-lives-on-average/?subscriber=true https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31776125/ AND have higher incidences of some bone fractures? Could we have been lied to by billionaires peddling their goods?

https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-00418-9 An analysis of around 1,500 blood proteins has identified biomarkers that can be used to predict the risk of developing dementia up to 15 years before diagnosis. The findings, reported today in Nature Aging1, are a step towards a tool that scientists have been in search of for decades: blood tests that can detect Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia at a very early, pre-symptomatic stage. Researchers screened blood samples from more than 50,000 healthy adults in the UK Biobank, 1,417 of whom developed dementia in a 14-year period. They found that high blood levels of four proteins — GFAP, NEFL, GDF15 and LTBP2 — were strongly associated with dementia. “Studies such as this are required if we are to intervene with disease-modifying therapies at the very earliest stage of dementia,” said Amanda Heslegrave, a neuroscientist at University College London, in a statement to the Science Media Centre in London. Late diagnosis According to the World Health Organization, more than 55 million people worldwide currently live with dementia. People are often diagnosed only when they notice memory problems or other symptoms. At that point, the disease might have been progressing for years. “Once we diagnose it, it’s almost too late,”

One size does fit all when it comes to risk reduction. We have very well proven this. The question or variable is how much risk and how much reduction. Genetics is becoming less of a factor in many diseases, we're discovering, but interestingly enough, it's becoming more of a factor in T2. More than T1...the genetic version of diabetes. 100% of Americans will be healthier with more plants and less animals.

Coincidentally, another doctor I follow posted this a couple hours ago, but it's just a reference to something he wrote up years ago. https://nutritionfacts.org/video/what-causes-diabetes/ What Causes Diabetes? Michael Greger M.D. FACLM · June 26, 2015 · Volume 25 3.6/5 - (313 votes) Saturated fat can be toxic to the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, explaining why animal fat consumption can impair insulin secretion, not just insulin sensitivity.

"Primarily" != "Only" I try to use precise, medical, fact based terms as much as possible. The exact wording of the headline actually came from another doctor word for word. And they shouldn't be taken to mean anything more than what they say directly. I just had some pretty unhealthy meats this weekend, I'm not a saint, just *aware* of what it means.

I can't tell if you're trolling. Risk reduction and correlation don't work that way, but it is less likely. "Non-smokers shouldn't get lung cancer?"

Weird, they recommend the 40mm for the 650R and 42mm for the much lower powered L model.

I am giving up on it. My priorities would be reliable and easy starting. Don't care about MPG or max power. Mikuni TM40: Inexpensive, generally easy to tune, not the most powerful or best MPG. XRsonly.com sells it as a kit with the adapter and multiple jets, but shows out of stock. I can get the carb and jets from other sources, but still also need an airbox adapter. @IcePrick has one on his XR400 and likes it a lot. This is valuable info and makes it my top choice. The forums seem to just see this is a good solid carb nothing that stands out. Lectron: Expensive. First-kick starts. Hard to tune sometimes. Works at any altitude even laying on its side. Edelbrock: Some love it and some hate it, inexpensive, can be tweaky to tune at first.

This summarizes some of my concerns. The full episodes are in another thread. overcast-clip.m4a

I'm sure I've posted about this before but this is the most quick and easy explanation I've heard from a doctor. It used to be assumed to be related to sugar and carbs. Obviously, sugar triggers the symptoms, but the root cause is animal products. overcast-clip.m4a Full episodes: https://www.alieward.com/ologies/diabetology New discussions that I haven't heard yet: https://www.alieward.com/ologies/diabetologyencore Oh wow. And does that happen where you, kind of, exhaust your pancreas? It has put out so much insulin over so much time that it just one day is like, “Fuck all y'all, I'm out.”? [low pitch, slowed down] Fuck all y’all, I’m out. I think there's a component of that. It's actually a really exciting time in research very, very recently. Most people think, “Oh you ate too much crap. You ate too much carbs and sugar.” But what we're finding more and more is that it's actually the animal products and the fat that we're eating, specifically the long-chain fatty acids and the saturated fats. And what's happening is there's fat deposition, so fat is kind of accumulating in things like the liver, your skeletal muscle, and the pancreas. And that is spawning a storm of proinflammatory cytokines, so you're getting a lot of inflammation. That inflammation is really detrimental. You're getting free radicals, and oxidation, and all that stuff, and that's really gunking up the works of the insulin receptors. Initially it's an issue of insulin insensitivity. The lock is broken, the key is there. And so very early on in type 2, you actually see a hyper-insulin state because your pancreas is saying, “Oh shit, my insulin I'm secreting isn't doing anything. Let's pump out extra.” It's falling on deaf ears. For that reason, eventually you'll have some of that, like you said, the pancreas pooping out. But then there's also some thought that this is also secondary to the fat deposition and inflammation in the pancreas as well. Aside: If you’re silently analyzing your diets right now you are not alone, my friend. The question of like, “Should I eat paleo? Should I eat keto? Should I eat plant based?” Plant- based diets have evidence that suggest that they help treat and prevent certain disease processes like type 2 diabetes. And I do think that is a very healthy way to go. There's good data for other diets that are out there, but the only one that I know that I've seen with empirical data behind it that seems very good is the plant-based diet. Really! That's so fascinating. And so if you are, say, pre-diabetic, what exactly does that mean and what can you do? Can you turn this boat around? If you have type 2 diabetes, can you turn the cruise ship around? What are we talkin’ here? What kind of U-turns?

Shitty glass that's pretty easy to break. Now the Cyber Truck glass...

Apology accepted again, but you really do need to think twice about trying to pretend you know everything, particularly when it's affecting peoples' health. It's ok, be who you are, the world still needs truck drivers for now and not everyone can be the expert on everything. You could just be the expert on things like how to operate a coffee maker (maybe) or how to beat the 3-5 year puzzles (I know it takes you six years, but still).

I guess shit adds up.

Everyone should definitely listen to the diet and medical advice from the dumbfuck who doesn't understand how carbohydrates work. I'm sure it's useful and very Professional™. One of my customers is doing a job for Impossible Foods, I'm volunteering for any consumer interaction (they do focus groups, product testing, etc).

I don't have anything with that type of rust to test. I tried it on mild steel stored outside, it didn't shred, but that's more like a film and your is more like individual spikes. I tried it on a piece of aluminum that was cut on the wood bandsaw with big teeth, it's uncomfortable to run your finger on, but didn't shred the polishing material. Some fluff came off but not much.

I ran the ingredients past my favorite nutritionist, her answer... Ingredients: Cashews, Filtered Water, Sea Salt, Natural Flavor, Cultured Brown Rice, Lactic Acid, Cultures. Yeah that is really good and just "processing" cashews by blending them is still unprocessed in the nutrition world. I would not hesitate to eat that just treat it like any other nut. High fat and calories so don't go "nuts!" The cultures are likely to be probiotic and probably a good benefit for the gut. Count it like a high calorie whole plant based food.

Another good "compared to what" article... Is Plant-Based Meat Healthy? We have to ask: Compared to what? Food is a zero sum game. Each time we eat, there’s an opportunity cost, a lost opportunity to put something even healthier in our mouth. For example, are eggs healthy? Yes, when compared to a breakfast sausage link, but not when compared to oatmeal. Plant-based meat alternatives are no match for unprocessed plant foods, such as beans or lentils, and a bean burrito or lentil soup could certainly fill the same culinary niche as a lunchtime burger. But, if you are going to have some kind of burger, it’s easy to argue that the plant-based versions are healthier. And comparative environmental damage... According to the United Nations, meat and dairy production would need to be doubled to meet the predicted demand for animal-based proteins in 2050, but the opposite is required to contain the ecological damage. As I discuss in my video The Environmental Impacts of Plant-Based Meat Substitutes, if we have any chance of sustainably meeting future food needs, we must lower our meat consumption. The largest barrier to following a plant-based diet may simply be meat appreciation. https://nutritionfacts.org/blog/plant-based-meats-and-our-health/

I haven't used this on anything super rusty, but mild oxidation and other surface issues on all metals mostly disappear. I polished the XR pipe with really great results, but of course, it was not bad at all to start with (and not chrome obviously).

It does sound likely to be the switch. Have you disassembled and cleaned/inspected the contacts inside the switch? It's easy, just watch for flying springs.

Yeah, I probably could qualify now to get some of this covered, as unfortunately the glucose control is getting worse (when off tirzepatide). But then we have that shit, and I wonder if I'm better off just continuing to self-administer, self-prescribe, and self-fund.

Ok, this is critical. Does the light turn on immediately, and not blink. Or does the light sometimes not turn on at all? Also what Joe said; swap sides.

As with many things, even down to cooking, what a pro uses and all the backup and help he has don't apply to use plebes. There are obviously reasons, they may have nothing to do with what we do.
