stolen cactus

2022.11.29: proj.apt`garden/stolen cactus:

. there were 3 pots of potatoes,

the pot on the right was half dug up,

in a place where 2 types cactus were located,

but one of the cactuses was thrown to the side.

I dug up the rest of the pot looking for potatoes,

but all I could find were 2 very small ones,

and one of the seed potatoes that seemed chewed,

while the pot seemed dragged out of place,

having me wonder if an animal did this,

but most likely a human was looking for a cactus.

. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (finding the middle ground)

is based on cognitive behavioral therapy

and dhamma, the teachings of Bhudda.

. it involves meditation, controlled breathing, journaling, 

exposure to intense exercise, temperature extremes,

and alternating between tensing and relaxing each muscle group.

. there are many techniques for negotiating with

your emotion maker and other relationships;

eg, part of self-respect is not relating to those who

require us to change our values or lie about them:

"it's ok to walk away from a toxic relationship".

the unexpected hazards of being a statistic:

. there was a problem with exploding air bags that killed people

but they didn't have them disarmed until replacement

because statistically, if they did disarm the air bag

there would be more people dying from accidents

than there would be deaths from air bag explosions

because seat belts alone are far deadlier than

seat belts with air bags.

. but those statistics just show the cost to society;

what about the cost to my family

when they know I may never have died from an accident

but I did die from an air bag explosion?

regenerative farming for mycelium for ergothioneine #health #diet

 2022.6.20: news.health/diet/ergothioneine/regenerative farming for mycelium:

summary:

. regenerative farming means not tilling the soil;

not tilling preserves the fungal biomass of the top soil;

fungal biomass is our primary source of ergothioneine,

an amino acid related to histidine,

which is taken up by the plants we grow in fungal soil,

and then taken up by the animals that eat those plants.

. ergothioneine may be reducing our risk of Alzheimer's,

possibly by protecting mitochondrial function.

. the beef from a regenerative farm also had 

a higher ratio of omega-3 to omega-6.

"cis-gender" are you calling me a cis?

 22.6.6: web.psy/cis-gender/are you calling me a cis?:


. cis-gender people identify as 

the same gender they were assigned at birth, 

while transgender people identify as

a gender different from that assigned at birth.

[Canadian Med Assoc J JUNE 6, 2022]

https://medicalxpress.com/news/2022-06-transgender-sexual-minority-teens-high.html


. I wondered if that terminology was meant to

make straight people ask rhetorically:

"are you calling me a cis?"

but the source of that term actually comes from

their latin definitions.

. there may be trans-nationals

but there are no cis-nationals;

so why should there be cis-genders?

. some confusion comes because 

trans- has 2 meanings in Latin:

you can have a transnational corporation

because trans- can mean "beyond",

so a transnational is beyond national borders;

but you can also have a trans-gender,

because trans- also means "on the other side".

. trans-gender can mean "beyond gender"

if you are choosing to appear asexual or ambiguous,

but conventionally it means moving across genders,

going from one to the other.

lowering vegf helps #amd? several herbs lower vegf #health #diet

lowering vegf helps amd? several herbs lower vegf:


summary:

. several methods of cancer treatment

are anti-angiogenic: they work by

stopping new blood vessel growth.

. one thing that cancers and amd blindness

have in common, is excess production of vegf

(vascular endothelial growth factor)

that causes the rapid growth of blood vessels

that tend to be leaky and result in edema.

. for wet amd (age-related macular degeneration

with high vegf that results in leaks and edema)

the only anti-vegf treatments have been injections

that are very expensive and can be painful.

. several herb are known to lower vegf,

and I wondered if taking them orally

could lower vegf in the eye.

more orange yolk means less AMD blindness

2022.5.23: health/diet/egg/blindness/
more orange yolk means less AMD blindness:

summary:

. a yolk that is more orange (than yellow)

is likely to have more lutein and zeaxanthin

that reduces the risk of AMD blindness.

. organic eggs have rules about

the coloring additives added to chicken feed.

. if you are not certain about the quality

of the coloring in your egg,

you can supplement with zeaxanthin and lutein.

[eg, MacuGuard® Ocular Support with Saffron:

https://www.lifeextension.com/vitamins-supplements/item01992/macuguard-ocular-support-with-saffron

10 mg free lutein, 

4 mg meso-zeaxanthin & trans-zeaxanthin.]

. taking the supplement with yolk

might increase its bioavailability

because MacuGuard claims to use Phospholipids

in order to enhance lutein absorption,

and egg yolk contains Phospholipids.

“What substantive elements do you think should be included

in a new international instrument

on pandemic preparedness and response?” 

my comment:

. one thing we should do to prepare

is teaching people about who survived the pandemic;

it was people with a diet that promotes

low inflammation, low cortisol, and low insulin,

for enhanced insulin sensitivity.

. and for elders it was high levels of vitamin D, vitamin A,

with vitamin K2 to prevent bone loss from vitamin D,

melatonin, and zinc.

. we don't want a global effort of 

forcing everyone to take risky vaccines,

when we could work to isolate the vulnerable,

while we rapidly build natural immunity,

and get the lock-downs over with sooner!

does copper improve or worsen schizophrenia?

2022.4.10: psy/schiz/diet/copper/
does copper improve or worsen schizophrenia?

summary:

. it was found in 1959 that ceruloplasmin, which carries copper,

could improve psychotic symptoms in many schiz'ics.

. however, it was also found that some measure of copper

is elevated in schiz'ia,

or in any condition causing chronic stress or fear.

. ceruloplasmin is used as a measure of copper

because 95% of blood copper is in ceruloplasmin

but ceruloplasmin is an acute phase reactant, 

increased during inflammation, infection, trauma, pregnancy, etc. 

. some who are assuming that copper is a cause of schiz'ia

are theorizing that ceruloplasmin may be 

catalyzing the oxidation of epinephrine 

to some psychosis-inducing indole-like material.

. but if ceruloplasmin can improve psychotic symptoms,

it is likely that the rises in ceruloplasmin 

are a reaction to the stress of schiz'ia,

and not the cause of it.

is suicide rejected because we deserve to suffer?

2022.3.28: news.relig/christian/
is suicide rejected because we deserve to suffer?:

. a Tucson public radio story about dying,

said the nurses in a place of dying

will often hear "life review" stories

that are triggered when they ask a visitor:

"you know the dying better than anyone,

are they in need?" 

. when the reporter mentioned that

life review stories can be dark,

I imagined the spouse of the dying basically hinting 

that the dying deserved this medical suffering.

. we are told that suicide is killing,

and the god has a commandment against killing,

but actually the rule is about suffering:

you are allowed to kill if it will 

increase the suffering of the judged,

but not if it will end the suffering of the innocent.

. but are the terminally sick really innocent

in the eyes of the god?

. how many deadly medical conditions are due to 

ignorance of what is healthy,

or willful carelessness, or gluttony?

3.29: 

or you could see the god cares for us:

. how are we supposed to learn from medical research

unless the sick are pushed into experiments

rather than be allowed to euthanize their suffering?

. banning suicide is not about deserving to suffer,

but deserving knowledge and empowerment.
