Hey guys, this is a real big tip for very ill people:
You can apply ultrasound to major lymph areas and get stagnant nodes moving again. Very high ROI if its a problem (in your case)

On the subject of "period cramps," I am going to say something that will piss off probably 95% of women, but it might help the other 5% so I'll do it anyway:
All my friends smart wives have found a way to make this a total non-issue
Some did a hormone panel and corrected some imbalance, others did Peat memes like progesterone, still others used holistic Korean alternative remedies
All report having completely fixed this problem. Not even "decreased the pain" but "made it go completely away"
I have no insights on the specifics of how they did this and it seems highly individual, but if you've been assuming this is something that's just destined to happen to you every month, you should consider that it may be fixable. For at least some people that appears to be the case
At minimum you can probably make it less painful
All I want is for a man who thinks women live life on easy mode to Kafka into a woman's body.
The cramps start. He's bleeding. He has a headache. The period shit hits.
He wads up a paper towel in his underwear to stop the blood & heads to the store to get tampons & pads.
While he's standing in line to check out, a man hits on him. He won't stop. He politely declines & the guy yells an insult at him as he walks out the door.
Then a homeless guy asks him for money. He mumbles a no. The guy follows him yelling "STUCK-UP BITCH!" & he's terrified this man will attack him & he's too small to fight him.
He gets home. He's safe. He's craving junk food, so he orders DoorDash.
But his name has changed to female on the order, so the driver is about to complete ignore his "leave at door" request...

Phosphenes - triggering light flashes in your vision with Ultrasound - possible BCI technology ?!

Episode 4 - Seeing Light with Sound - and the Posphene Phenomenon with Ultrasound !
Out in the dusk in a bright moon, toasting the planes so low i can see the cabin lights.
Cheers, normal people, may you never need an experimental medical friend like me

Maybe this needs a sort of "Lactate overview"
"Lactate is useful both as a fuel and as a signaling molecule"
Lactate is made from carbohydrate, with the main pathway being:
1. Glucose or muscle glycogen -(glycolysis)-> pyruvate -> lactate; glycolysis makes pyruvate, NADH, and ATP
2. The enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) reduces pyruvate to lactate, using NADH as fuel, turns pyruvate into lactate, and NADH is turned back to NAD+
3. NAD+ is recycled to be re-used in glycolysis
Lactate production doesn't make ATP, rather lactate recycles NAD+
During HIIT, rapid carb metabolism makes pyruvate and NADH at a high rate, and conversion of pyruvate to lactate, allows for continual regeneration of NAD+ when mitochondrial oxidation and redox can't do glycolytic flux enough
One other note, oxygen deficiency is not mandatory for lactate formation. It can happen alongside mitochondrial respiration, with glycolytic production and lactate production being able to happen at the same time
LDH can also run in the reverse direction, where lactate is converted back into pyruvate, while generating NADH, depending on substrate/production concentrations and NADH:NAD+ balance, which then the pyruvate can go into the mitochondria to be further oxidized, or go into gluconeogenic tissues to synthesize glucose (gluconeogenesis)
Thus, making lactate preserves the three-carbon fuel (by being able to be converted back into pyruvate) while recycling the redox cofactor (NAD+) needed to keep glycolysis running

Louder: 90% of people are hypothyroid
There would be no need for TRT if everyone’s thyroid system worked properly.
in all honesty, i think the exact opposite. if you can truly optimize your thyroid function naturally (i’m not talking about lab reference ranges), you’ll automatically have high T, high DHT, normal E2, normal prolactin, etc. i believe over 90% of people are hypothyroid, and i know a lot of people are gonna come after me for saying this

To me, one of the more interesting observations of the consequences of aluminum toxicity doesn’t even come from human studies, but from Exleys initial research into aluminum’s effects on fish.
One of the standout observations noted in this initial research was that very small amounts of aluminum in a fish tank - the same amount allowed in many municipal water supplies - would cause these fish to seek hiding places within the tank.
Let’s say we speculatively apply this same effect to humans.
What would we see?
Social withdrawal? Introversion? Seeking a place to hide from others?
What syndrome do we see this in, primarily?
Sounds a lot like AUTISM, doesn’t it?
What do you mean the dementia patient put on a dress and ate at a sit-down restaurant with her spouse today
And the spouse DIDNT think it was a big deal or important to tell me
She was bedbound a month ago
WHAT DO YOU MEAN
(I want to smack him around)
They playin with my emotions
Makin me question everybody's sanity / honesty
It aint a fun rollercoaster
Eldercare aint for the weak

cognitive function stack: quality sleep, a good circadian rhythm, enough carbs, and good glucose metabolism.
trust me, i have a lot of n=1 data on this.
