Traditional medicine was the original decentralized medicine. Allopathic medicine (MDs) is centralized. @DrJackKruse
One of the general differences can be seen in its trust and humility.
Traditional medicine has humility, and knows that life is far more sophisticated and omniscient than we give it credit it for.
So, its practice defers to the wisdom of the body and merely supports the body's needs.
You can call it a trust in the emergent wisdom of the body by interplay of many complex factors.
This is fundamentally a trust in a decentralized framework.
Whereas, allopathic medicine tends to mistrust the body and overestimates its power.
This leads to a tendency to interfere with what the body is trying to accomplish. It knows better.
So it cuts out body parts, irradiates and poisons, interfere with protein function, or disrupts the microbiome.
This is arrogance.
And it is no wonder it exists in a centralized paradigm.
The centralization happens at many scales.
Infectious disease is at the level of the organism.
General medicine broadly focuses at organs.
Endocrinologists, for example, focus on cellular communication.
Geneticists on nucleic acids.
Each silo'd and centralized itself.
This centralization gives rise to an attack vector on the practice.
For example, a charlatan may learn a few things, pretending to be a doctor.
But does the same thing for every patient - e.g. bloodletting done wrong.
Whereas the decentralized traditionalist knows that every technique has its place, and so uses bloodletting sparingly and selectively.
One's making money.
The other is practicing medicine.
Traditional medicine was the original decentralized medicine.

I asked one of the most esteemed neuropathologists at an Ivy academic medical center:
"What if we have glioblastoma (brain cancer) all wrong?
We believe that tumors start small and grow outward.
What if the diseased state of the nervous system is converging on a point that we then see as 'tumor' at a particular location in the brain?"
His answer shocked all of his colleagues and trainees:
"I've never been asked that question before, and now that I think of it...I don't know how we can claim it is one or the other."
Centralized medicine is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on brain cancer treatment and research...cutting out large chunks of peoples' brains...
and we haven't even answered this most basic question.

In my opinion, the whole of society has been oversold and under-delivered on the utility and value of vaccines.
Including:
The public who pay (thru tax) for the research, development, and administration of vaccines.
The doctors who are indoctrinated to administer them.
And, the people who are expected to take them at increasing frequency.
All of this seems plausible when you consider the types of entities that stand to profit from their mandated and widespread adoption.
A criminal history to rival any.
With immunity from legal persecution.
You are completely within sound mind to question this blatant invasion into our lives.
You'd be crazy not to.

What if you could implement a couple of changes to your routine, hit them consistently, and improve your health at least as much as any prescription drug is doing.
The best part?
You save money on the drug.
And, no side effects.
This is what I'm interested in.
This is decentralized health.
Recognize you are an entire body, surrounded by an entire environment which exists on many more dimensions than you can see, or hear, or smell, or touch.
And by hitting all of them, with small improvements here and there, you get the same benefit across your entire body.
Because some of the most common and worst illnesses and costs to life and society are heavily modulated by improvements in all sorts of modalities.
Including heart disease, strokes, diabetes, obesity, cancer...even osteoporosis.
You want to tell me one prescription drug is going to hit all of these things simultaneously?
Without proportionate increase in side effects and cost?
These days prescriptions drugs are designed to target one metric or abstraction.
Which means you gotta take many of them.
This is one of the lowest yield approaches to improving most people's health.
Chronic disease is the manifestation of consistently poor decision making.
And people are offended by that, because it is a judgment on their daily routine, and fundamentally their character or disposition.
You don't make 1 decision to get chronic disease.
You are constantly repeating at least one mistake.
Others are constantly repeating many mistakes.

2024-04-18 13:04:03

Let's assume for a second that mainstream medicine is correct: that there are diseases in which the body does something that harms itself.
You think you are going go to war against your body?
You think you are going to win?
You think there will be no collateral damage?
Fools.

All synthetic.

To understand the shortcomings of modern medicine, you first need to understand the shortcomings of tools that are used every day.
For example, most clinicians will order X-rays or CTs because they think it provides some window to the truth.
What they don't appreciate is that these are simply projections, with several layers of data processing.
In the case of x-ray/CT, we use high-energy beams to communicate with atoms.
This communication consists of interactions with orbital electrons, which have characteristic absorption/emission spectra.
This spectrum is then translated into density, which is normalized to the density of pure water at standard temperature and pressure. This standard value is 0 (zero) Houndsfield Units (HU).
Everything else in the body is displayed in relation to this density, above zero (soft-tissue, bone, metal) and below zero (fat, air).
This density metric is then transformed onto a digital monitor, and adjusted to be perceived by the human eye; which has a non-linear perception of light density/grayscale.
And we haven't even yet discussed the fact that living systems are dynamic, and almost all imaging is static.
Momentary snapshots in time.
As you can see, there are far more to this than simply "looking into the body."
And at every level, there are limits.

"Infection" is, at base, dysbiosis or microbial proliferation.

Or, it has been introduced into a new environment.
In either case, the microbe's terrain has changed.

People think radiology provides ground truth information about the state of the body.
This is not true for many reasons.
The most important to realize is that any given imaging modality communicates with the body along one field/medium.
E.g. ultrasound conveys information using sound (acoustics) as the medium of exchange.
Xray or CT conveys information using electron emissions.
MRI conveys information using quantum spin magnetization.
This is true with every mode of diagnostics.
The body and mind exist, and thus, communicate along many dimensions.
But, we only survey this information using a narrow selection.

For quite some time I've been thinking about what is going on in this digital alternative medicine space, and what my role would be in it.
I've come to the conclusion that I am in the business of formulating stories and distributing belief.
One of the reasons why the current medical establishment continues to enjoy majority market share is because the people, by and large, believe in the framework of health and disease that corporate medicine is selling.
More than that, it is the de facto framework against which alternative hypotheses are considered.
The media and schools help support this.
By propagating the ideas nested in the modern corporate paradigm, the institutions cement these ideas as the de facto belief system about health and disease.
Which means radicals like myself, are always swimming upstream, so to speak.
For each statement I make about an aspect of health, I have to spend another 3-5 statements unpacking what people have been propagandized to believe.
So what am I doing out here?
Truthfully, I don't really want to sell you a supplement.
I've spent my academic time (both pre and post-Substack) trying to understand several different disciplines and ways of looking at the body & disease.
Because if you truly believe some of the principles I discuss, then your operating manual for navigating health changes drastically.
And, that's enough for me.
I'm weaving a story.
That's it.

We should be more focused on health of the brain involved in emotion regulation, cardiorespiratory function, feeding regulation, threat analysis, balance, posture, & instinct.
Far too concerned with higher cognitive function, and complex pattern recognition.
Our obsession with higher cognitive function, ie. complex pattern recognition, has come at the cost of adaptability and longevity provided by functions of the basal ganglia & brainstem.
Not that we should have none of either, just in a proportion that isn't manifest in health decay.

Everybody and their grandmother is being prescribed statins to lower cholesterol because "LDL = bad"
Ever wonder, just how much risk is being reduced by this highly mitochondrial poison we call statins?
In a meta-analysis of 18 clinical trials (which typically look at the highest risk patients with pretty bad cardiovascular disease), all cause mortality was reduced by 0.8%
That's it.
New-onset diabetes with statin use has been observed in about 10% of people who have taken it for a few years.

Top tip:
If you are worried about coronary artery disease it is far more useful to have a coronary CT angiogram done. Noninvasive, simple iV contrast bolus image.
Conventional angiography is far too risky and not worth the diagnostic yield in people who are asymptomatic.
Non contrast CT (aka imaging done to estimate CAC) is incomplete because non-calcified atherosclerotc plaques exist (if jot this majority in younger adults).

Symptoms are your body processing a disturbance to its health.
Suppressing symptoms with drugs prevents your body from reconciling and transcending the injury.
AKA healing.
In this overmedicated world, is it any wonder chronic disease rises?

2023-06-28 14:36:06

Why statins or lipid lowering drugs are attacking the body rather than solving the problem:
Atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease are due to TWO complementary phenomena:
1) Elements of your life (many in your control) are damaging your arteries, leading to inflammation.
2) Your body is responding by repair.
In the process it lays down some fat. This is necessary to healing, because we are made of fat and protein.
Every functional tissue from:
-Static non-regenerative brain, to...
-Constantly replenished flowing blood
Has fat in it. Critical for repair.
However, the more you expose yourself to these inflammatory agents, you promote this cycle of damage + repair.
And the walls start to remodel and thicken.
And you get atherosclerosis.
Then, a stroke or heart attack can be brought on by simple dehydration or a cold.
Now, we get to the good part.
"Standard of Care" has resulted in a vast majority of the population taking Statins.
A drug that blocks production of hormones for communication.
Blocks production of fats integral for hundreds if not thousands of proteins.
A drug that is prescribed if you simply have high cholesterol.
No illness, no heart attacks, no cardiovascular complications of any sort.
The healing element of your body is being imprisoned.
We wonder why chronic disease continues to rise.
Instead, you can focus on what matters:
Stop damaging your body in the first place.
This should be the goal of any good provider.
Often times, this damage is due to recommendations from entities that claim to have your best interest at heart.
No pun intended.

The goal is not to stop the transmission of viral information.
This is impossible.
Even IF you manage to avoid 1, another 1000 will find you
The goal is to fortify your body such that it encounters and processes viral information with ease.

Joe Rogan offered to donate $100K to charity if Peter Hotez debates @npub1hq0…f9mp on his podcast.
Since then, the total contributions have reached >$780K
Will Peter accept the challenge?

Obesity is due to hunger.
Chances are, you are not feeding your body the right stuff.
Nutritionally. Socially. Psychologically. Physically. Intellectually. Electromagnetically.
Feed your body right.

Modern Medicine suffers from widespread confounding errors.
It finds co-occurring phenomena, and then assumes causality.
Cholesterol and cardiovascular disease.
Pneumonia and microbiota.
Chronic diseases and DNA/RNA fragments (aka viruses).
Gene mutations and cancer.

Tocopherols, different forms of Vitamin E are used to preserve food, both for storage and undergoing high heat processing of food.
That should tell you something about the nature of vitamin E.
Protects organic matter against high stress conditions.

Top Tip:
If you are ever concerned about a treatment option, one of my favorite statistics is...
NNT = Number-needed-to-treat
The NNT tells us how many people need to receive this treatment, for just ONE person to achieve the desired outcome.
For example:
The NNT high blood pressure to prevent 1 death = 125 people for 5 years!
Meaning: you need to treat 125 people with prescription drugs for 5 years to prevent 1 death.
But there's more.
The often ignored cousin of NNT
NNH = Number-needed-to-harm
Similarly, NNH tells us how many people need to be given a treatment option to harm 1 person.
To continue with high blood pressure, the NNH is 10.
1 in 10 experienced some side effect resulting in stopping the medication.
Now, I am not saying no one should ever take antihypertensives.
No.
But, these drugs do not provide the same benefit for everyone that takes it.
So, you must be cognizant of what you are trying to achieve...and harms you are trying to avoid.

Melatonin is Ubiquitous
It benefits sleep, inflammation, immunity & obesity.
Originally found in cows - later in plants, nuts, and even coffee.
Rats fed walnuts demonstrate increased blood serum melatonin AND increased anti-oxidative capacity.

Treat patients, not lab values.
Pursue the feeling of balance, vitality, and health.
Only you know when you have achieved this.
No lab, test or doctor can tell you.

The stomach is a fire, which cooks food and breaks it down.
The small intestine is a river, absorbing and funneling nutrition to the body.
The colon is a swamp, eliminates waste and absorbs water.

Trust in teachers, doctors, scientists...
We have lost the things which we took for granted.
Now, people are acting out of a need.
Our desperation is our greatest strength.

"All of these refined stimuli inevitably lead to resistance. Resistance is the word we use to describe when our bodies have been so overexposed to a stimulus, that it is no longer capable of dealing with that stimulus effectively."

I appreciate the respect people have for "evidence-based medicine."
Problem is, we codify the standard of care with aggregate data.
One person will cure their reflux with apple cider vinegar.
Another will cure their reflux with melatonin.
A third with a chiropractor.
Standardize that.

✍️ An Ode to Cholesterol
Cholesterol gets a bad reputation - particularly LDL.
We dislike it because we find it insinuated within the lining of our arteries.
We blame it for shortening our lives.
It is important to remember the function that the LDL serves.
It is patching up all the damage you are doing to your body.
Where inflammation and tissue damage go, LDL follows. It is part of the healing process.
So, the next time you want to throw shade at LDL, remember what your blood vessel would look like without it.
Inflamed, fibrotic, leaking, and throwing clots. You'd stroke out in no time.
Improve your habits, and thank your cholesterol for keeping you alive this long.
