Dr. Anthony Metivier:
. some people feel like their thoughts are too much;
oppressive streams of unwanted negative ideas;
antipsychotics and other drugs often don't help;

the most important directive of the Torah
20.5.20: relig/judaism/
the most important directive of the Torah:
Reform Judaism Rabbi Josh Weinberg 2020.5.19:
is that "free will" comes from the spirits;
the supernatural makes demands on us,
and it becomes very painful to ignore those demands;
both liberty and pleasing our god
mean the same thing:
following the will of the supernatural.
. even loving one’s neighbor as one's self
is concerned with
following the will of the supernatural
as it pressures us to protect similar beings
who follow the will of the same god.
. thus nothing is more basic than
Deuteronomy 6: 4-5:
4 Give ear, O [the prophet's people]:
{Adonai, Adonoi, The Lord(owner, master, guardian)}
our god is one: [ie, the god of gods:
the will of the supernatural
shall be the same for all of us:]
5 And our god Adonai is to be loved
with all your heart, soul, and strength.
. here is the meaning of that command:
the supernatural comes to us with a variety of ideas;
some of which are contradictory,
eg, the supernatural wants some to gain by cheating
only to want others to discourage cheaters.
. thus there are limits to liberty,
as the god cannot have
what the god later regrets;
therefore, knowing the god is one,
that we all hear the same god,
and not a cacophony that would bedevil us,
is more basic than liberty.
. on the other hand,
if your people and my people
cannot agree on the same god;
truly then, nothing is more important than
liberty to love our own god and not yours.
. but what about world peace?
therefore, we should design our god of gods
to meet only the most basic needs
to require the fewest loss of liberty.
but can we really agree?
. some assume abortion saves a child from
the abuse of subconsciously feeling resented;
while others assume such euthanasia is murder.
. some feel abortion saves the world,
as it is the only way of reducing population
and building wealth that helps with peace.
. the 3rd alternative, by the god I promote,
is to communalize child production
and vote on how many children a person can have.
. each commune can have their own vote
(I join where they let the entertainers and scientists
do 80% of our breeding!)
but there are limits to the poverty of a commune:
a commune that is spending more on unemployment
than on education, needs to demand that
the commune as a whole has fewer children.
. if a commune has trouble with compliance,
they need to start restricting the men involved
rather than euthanizing their children.
. we can afford a few mistakes
without making the kids feel resented,
because we are all coming together to
finance and babysit the commune's children.
. communes don't need to share a house;
but sharing childcare is easier if you live nearby;
they only need to share a newsletter.
. but this also means that parenting is allowed
only if some commune agrees to adopt you;
a parenting club with enough members
to cover the costs of unemployment.
. it's true, isn't it?
nothing is more important than liberty;
not even the care of the children.
give us liberty from liberty.

and more fundamental than ... even
loving one’s neighbor as one’s self.)

20.5.1: health/immunity/1918 flu pandemic
/H1N1 with bleeding from high-dose aspirin:
summary:
. the 1918 flu pandemic was an H1N1 virus;
there was some who suspected it was a bioweapon
and not just the flu;
because a lot of bleeding was involved,
as if it was hemorrhagic fever virus
meant to influence the current war (WWI);
however, there was a new popular fad at the time,
of taking very high doses of aspirin
as it it had only recently been discovered;
and they unaware that it was the aspirin
that was causing the same sort of bleeding
that is caused from scurvy or low vit'C.
. historian on @scifri radio said
the 1918 pandemic was able to kill just the young
because it caused an autoimmune reaction;
so, the stronger you could attack the virus
the stronger you would attack yourself.

#schizophrenia and PsychENCODE's lab-grown human brain organoids

claims that some of the genes for schizophrenia
are unique to humans; that makes sense,
because one advantage we have over other animals
is a bicameral mind
where cognitive functions were divided between
one part of the brain which appears to be "speaking",
and a second part which listens and obeys.
. the schiz'ic can use this arrangement
to hear the voice of a god and other telepathies.
. we are actually experimenting on
living human brains, grown in a vat!

Ziony Zevit 2015 claims
The Biblical text says that Eve
was created from Adam’s tsela‘.
Although tsela‘ has traditionally been translated as “rib,”
Zevit argues that it is better translated as os baculum.
--
. "os baculum" is a bone used for penis erections,
in all primates except humans;
so Genesis might be a myth about
why humans don't have an erection bone,
just as it is a myth about other mysteries,
such as why childbirth is painful
and everyone has to die.

dose of selenium depends on mercury-binding losses
2019.8.26: health/diet/selenium/mercury-binding losses:

. selenium (se) is an essential mineral
but it binds to mercury,

(and some fillings release mercury;
and some flu vaccines may contain mercury).
so some may need more se than others,
ie, you may need more than is recommended.
. some lakes are low in se,
but the ocean has plenty of it,
so most ocean fish have more se than mercury,
however, even if ocean fish are not a
mercury hazard, they still have carcinogenic
endocrine disruptors such as PCB, and dioxins.
. in addition to using sardines for se,
(also omega-3 oils, and plenty of minerals)
I get se from Se-Methyl L-Selenocysteine
since it may have additional benefits
before being degraded into elemental selenium
that can bind mercury and be used in proteins.

#CBD slows #bone remodeling in study of #osteoporosis
19.12.17: news.health/osteo/cbd/
GPR55 antagonist reduced mouse bone resorption:
12.23: summary:
. bone strength is maintained by remodeling,
where bone is removed by osteoclasts
to make way for new bone by osteoblasts.
. CBD appears to inhibit osteoclast function
and might be of use against osteoporosis;
but it also increases the number of osteoclasts,
so that if you ran out of CBD for a time,
the osteoclasts would be reactivated,
and there would be many more of them.
. as seen with the Bisphosphonates
the strategy of stopping resorption is flawed,
and should rarely be used [Dr.Ott]
because while the bone may remain dense,
the bone is not maintaining its strength.
. interestingly, this is another situation
where CBD and THC counteract each other.
. as a strategy to control bone loss,
a person's hormone function is key;
[J Osteoporos. 2010]
but, never take hormones orally,
or when modified in some patented way;
that is how Hormone Replacement Therapy
got a bad reputation.

but it also increases the number of osteoclasts,
so that if you ran out of CBD for a time,
the osteoclasts would be reactivated,
and there would be many more of them.
. as seen with the Bisphosphonates
the strategy of stopping resorption is flawed,
and should rarely be used [Dr.Ott]
because while the bone may remain dense,
the bone is not maintaining its strength.
. interestingly, this is another situation
where CBD and THC counteract each other.
. as a strategy to control bone loss,
a person's hormone function is key;
[J Osteoporos. 2010]
but, never take hormones orally,
or when modified in some patented way;
that is how Hormone Replacement Therapy
got a bad reputation.

estrogen dominance as a risk of prostate cancer
19.12.15: health/hormonics/cancer#prostate/estrogen:
. Dr.Lee 2002 noted that prostate cancer is
one of the many diseases that can be
associated with estrogen dominance,
where there is too much estrogen
relative to progesterone.
. this is supported by a 2011 study
[ Expert Rev Endocrinol Metab. 2011:
Estrogen action and prostate cancer.]
. estradiol-17β has been classified as a carcinogen
by the International Agency for Research on Cancer [9–11],
primarily based on its association with
endometrial and breast carcinoma in women [12–15].
. young men have low estrogen,
moderate progesterone,
and 4 times as much testosterone (T);
but when aging they get more estrogenic activity
and the combination of T and estrogen
is what dramatically increases the risk
of prostate cancer.
At least in rats, testosterone alone
is necessary, but not sufficient,
for the development of prostate cancer.
It is only with the addition of estrogen
that cancer can be reliably induced.

eye wear prescription data at home
2023.4.7: update: 19.12.8: aq.med/eyes/
generate eyewear prescription data at home. one cool thing about at-home testing
of the eye's need for prescription lenses,
is knowing that there are eye wear providers
that accept your eye wear data
without proof that you have a prescription.
. this is valuable to me because
I have not felt comfortable with
the script that my eye doctor wrote:
the distance vision adjustment was
too strong, and the near vision was good for a foot away
when I would like to see what is in my lap.
. my first response was to wear various reading glasses
over my distance vision glasses;
but what I would prefer to do is
just order bifocals with my
preferred prescription strengths.
. I would still see an eye doctor to check for
diseases, such as glaucoma and AMD.

a doctor's path to reversing artery plaque from insulin resistance

How I Reversed 20 years of Arterial Plaque:
Heart Attack Proofing?
. ACE inhibitors, like statins,
are designed for one thing
{lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol}
but they are actually most helpful because
they are reducing inflammation.
. he reduced high-glycemic carbs,
[noted in the captioning]
and because that lowers insulin
which improves blood lipids and pressure,
he was able to lower his dose of medications;
. he also used niacin, and ate salmon every day.

how moderate red wine use affects hormones
19.11.11: web.health/hormonics/diet
/red wine and alcohol:
. red grapes fermented or not
may raise levels of free testosterone (T)
by reducing conversion of T into estrogen;
and can also lower the binding of T with SHBG.
. alcohol may reduce inflammation for heart,
[Dr.Sears, the inflammation zone]
and it may reduce what is binding T,
but may also convert more T to estrogen,
and might reduce progesterone levels.
. red wine compared to white wine,
gives more free T and lower SHBG levels.

how #vegan diets are more prone to bleeding
9.6: health/diet/how vegans are more prone to bleeding:
9.10: summary:
. vegans seem more prone to bleeding;
Sears's zone diet research suggests
that there is greater risk of bleeding
when taking high-dose fish oil,
because the omega-3 oil EPA
greatly exceeds the balancing effects of
arachidonic acid (AA) omega-6 oil.
. it is quite likely that the converse is true,
those with very low levels of AA,
are going to have a bloody EPA/AA ratio
even if their EPA is not high.
. one of the richest sources of AA is egg yolk,
and AA may be why a 2018 study showed
Chinese eating one yolk daily can
reduce their risk of bleeding death.
. a great vegan source for both protein
and the omega-6 that may be converted to AA,
is chickpeas (1.1g omega-6 per 100g);
of course, nuts and seeds
are the richest source of omega-6
other than processed oils.
. chia seeds and walnuts are balanced:
chia: 5.8g omega-6, 17.5g omega-3.
walnuts: 38g omega-6, 9g omega-3;
walnuts are rich in polyphenols too.
