The truth is out there
As you all have noticed the temperature this month has started to break records... Whether it is global warming or not, but personally I notice that the weather in Kiev has become like in some Spain, where I could not stay for a long time for this reason. If scientists are right, then somewhere by 2050 the climate in Ukraine will be like....
I think you have already watched and listened to the posts of various pseudoscientific bloggers about the benefits of interval fasting. All of them start a charade about some mythical (for them) autophagy, which occurs during fasting and rejuvenates the body. Moreover, this charamanka is launched by scientists and doctors, they say it is safe and it should be done this way... However, it is not true. Let's...
In addition to the instagram post about growth hormone, I'm giving you a list of drugs with my reviews for each one. Let's start with recombinant growth hormone preparations. I write at once that my words are not theory, but an excerpt from practice. Perhaps for someone it will be news, but these drugs are used by athletes, from amateurs to those you have seen on TV......
I think you know that testosterone is the main hormone for the development of male sexual characteristics or masculinity. Thanks to testosterone we have gender differences, the same ones that some stupid individuals want to abolish year after year. Thanks to testosterone, men tend to take the initiative, to subjugate others to their will. Under the influence of this hormone, they express themselves decisively, ...
I already did a post on Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta). I remind you that this is a cytokine that causes cells to apoptosis and replace them with fibrous tissue. The more of this protein, the more a person is prone to fibrosis. A lot of fibrosis is accelerated aging. Such people are prone to dementia, sarcopenia and other pathologies. As we age...
Acne, also known as acne, or pimples, is a common chronic (as doctors believe) skin condition characterized by the formation of blackheads, comedones (black dots and whiteheads), papules, and pustules. This is due to excessive sebum secretion from sebaceous glands, the skin lipids that lubricate the skin (Figure 1). It is popularly understood that acne is a problem ...
Another athlete has been caught by the Anti-Doping Organization after taking Ostarine. As a reminder, Ostarine is a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM). I wrote about this class of drugs in my post Hollywood, Steroids, SARMs. This athlete is Ryan Garcia, he is a young (25 years old) but popular boxer from Mexico. By the way, in the fight where he was "burned" - he won. Helped him...
To begin with, the weight of the human body is determined by the weight of different tissues. I wrote about this on my instagram. However, often, everyone wants to gain weight in muscle tissue, because having a lot of fat or thick bones is not healthy, just like walking around swollen from excess fluid, which also gives weight. Having well-developed muscle tissue is...
Gray hair is always associated with old age, but this is not always the case. In preventative medicine, which I cover, there is such a thing as premature gray hair, and there is also a belief that you can't reverse gray hair. However, this is not true, and today's post is about that. First of all, let's find out how gray hair appears and what...
A small post to add to the topic of muscle loss (sarcopenia). I mentioned that there are natural substances that affect myostatin, a protein that suppresses muscle growth from the TGF-b superfamily of proteins. Now, one of these substances may be sulforaphane from broccoli. But, I once came across a paper by bioinformaticians that screened natural compounds for properties....
Recently, an interesting study was released about the now forgotten vaccination against a trendy virus in the past: The study was done on a huge sample of people and showed great harm that I wrote about back in 2021. Let's look at the findings of the study together, and then look at my little slideshow of Instagram "experts" (geniuses of thought🤣) from clinics and organizations who called me and others names....
For those not in the know, sarcopenia is the age-related loss of muscle mass. It seems to be an understandable phenomenon, but as my experience shows, even many medics hear it for the first time. The fact is that with age muscle cells myocytes die and in their place come fat cells and connective tissue (the same collagen that everyone wants after 30 😆) Under...
I am continuing my series of notes on the connection between viruses and neuro diseases. Today we are going to talk about the human papillomavirus and its impact on multiple sclerosis (MS). You have heard of this virus, but not everyone understands multiple sclerosis: In a nutshell, it is when the immune system starts attacking myelin. And myelin, in turn, is...
In my experience, complaints of insomnia are quite common among the population. Moreover, I myself have experienced this condition in my past. This condition is caused by a disturbance of a certain homeostasis in the brain. ✅ Let's start with a simple one, a lack of glucose. Have you ever had a condition where you wake up in the middle of the night with a wild bout of hunger? Also, this attack...
When you go to an eye doctor in any hospital in the world, you will be examined, tested, and prescribed your choice of glasses, contact lenses, or corrective surgery. If you ask, "Doc, why am I like this? You will start to make some nonsense, as for example, I was told that supposedly the mucous membrane of my eye dries up from the air conditioner... If anyone has not yet understood, neither...
In the last post I wrote about toxins around us, and in this one I will write about how plastic substances affect gender epigenetics. The thing is that recently, by chance, in a popular cafe, I overheard a conversation between two "journalists" who were discussing ways to popularize lgbt in my country. And it all happened at serious meetings with reasoning....
Have you ever wondered how many chemicals you come into contact with every day - in the air, food, clothes, dishes, cosmetics, etc.? In short - there are a lot of them, but not everyone understands what these substances are and what effect they have on people. I will describe the main groups of substances and give examples of harm from them. 1️⃣ Bisphenols and phthalates. These ...
Or in other words, cures for old age. The topic is very broad. So I will highlight the most popular drugs and describe their targets in the body. And I will start with the targets. Roughly and conditionally we can say that a person ages the following parts of the body: - Heart and blood vessels - Central nervous system (brain) - Extracellular matrix (collagen, elastin) - Immune system - Stem cells (bone,...
I saw an excerpt of an interview with a science blogger, where there were arguments about the fact that the rich live longer. I didn't learn anything new from what I heard, that the rich can afford to buy quality food and not live in Troyeschina. In short, - typical science-pop 🙂 I had an idea to share with you real medical technologies that help the rich to bear the burdens....
The photo above shows the anemia test results of a 25 year old girl who has not eaten meat for about a year. Unfortunately nowadays anemia is a scourge among girls. For reasons unknown to me, many bloggers-experts-clowns-spartakisubbots propagate a pseudo-healthy lifestyle, among which is often glimpsed a complete refusal of meat (replaced by fish or other bullshit). They are listened to by thousands, millions, and repeated.....
Have any of you thought about how Hollywood stars manage to look beyond their years in terms of physical shape or appearance? Usually when I ask people this question I get platitudes like - they have a lot of money, for which they buy the services of doctors, beauticians, trainers. Yes, it's true, they have a lot of money.....
I often hear the concern of medical professionals about antibiotic resistance. Various organizations like the WHO are also whining about it, calling for limiting the use of antibiotics. But are they right and can this process be stopped through such restrictions? This is a question I have been asking for a long time, here are my thoughts on the matter: Consider an isolated system - a petri dish 🧫, inside a medium and a culture of bacteria, for example...
I became interested in this topic a long time ago, after watching the legendary movie "The Dark Regions" 🙂 Since then, a lot of theoretical information about the effects of nootropics has been accumulated, which was confirmed by practice, on me and other people. Right away I will make a small digression - using nootropics "in pure form" will not make you Arestovich😁 I have already written that we become smarter through....
I'll start from afar, so you'll have to strain your brain a bit to understand me 🙂 So, probably already many of you have heard about the artificial intelligence option called ChatGPT. This algorithm answers your questions and tasks. Soon this kind of technology will replace humans (stupid humans😁). But now I'm talking about something else - have you ever wondered how such algorithms work? A programmer sits down, writes...
In short, the effectiveness of most cosmetics is illusory and inspired by marketing and we can end here, however, I will still give minimal scientific arguments🧐I will do it by popular categories of cosmetics. Hyaluronic acid products. In any cosmetics store you will see creams, serums, fluids, tonics on which it is drawn and written how you will get younger after their use😄 Unfortunately, this is all...
I often see ads for different doctors' pages on my instagram. Most often they are cosmetologists. It is understandable, because the main audience of this network is busy narcissizing themselves digitally, and photoshop is not enough for them 😄 But that's not what I mean. Usually when I visit such pages I see fierce incompetence. So in this post I will describe the frequent misconceptions of such specialists.....
"Dear orthopedic doctors", explain to me, in what science is it described that the prescription of insoles and corsets is an effective therapy for posture problems? The question is of course rhetorical, I know that in response I will hear some inarticulate mooing, and especially gifted will throw me links to studies that they did not understand, or that are made crooked 😁 Let me spend a little time and explain the harm....
Have you ever asked yourself the question - can a person never get sick? I have 🙂 My answer is that they can't, but they can get sick rarely. And what do you need to do to get sick rarely? Improve your immune system. But here is the trouble, how to do this you will not answer neither doctors nor even whole scientists 🙂 In some of my posts I have already written.....
The modern world is still full of myths and some false dogmas that most people live by. One of these myths I often hear about is the claim that sport helps to prolong life. To be honest, I too, once upon a time, thought so 🙂 It's not true. The truth is that heavy physical activity shortens life. Also....
As you have already noticed, I often criticize different medicines that are imposed on us every year more and more. Of course, I understand what big business is and that top management of pharmaceutical companies need to maintain their business jets for flights to Ibiza 😁 But this is not understood by people who need treatment, as well as doctors that prescribe them....
