Full article on free legitimate resources that doctors, and nurses and most people who practice medicine use, but never tell their patients.
(Its not really free, its the government, so its been paid by tax payers by the people.)
Doctor malpractice and medical information Everyone should know
I will post this as unverified, although, there shouldn't be any issue since its not false information. This is mostly based on personal experience and searching through health websites and drawing a conclusion on what I found.
for extensive, legitimate, studies and research into each and any supplement. Including interactions, overdose limits. and much more in the related or affiliated articles and documents section, should be on the right.
Never mix a pharmaceutical with a natural remedy or supplement without first doing your research. Don't take it on WebMD or healthline or any other mainstream health site's word. Especially going to a reddit and trying to get your conclusive statement from there. It can be useful anecdotally but it is by no means a safe referral for navigating your understanding on just about anything. I've seen long threads on chemistry where many chemistry students were wrong, etc.
all in all if you decide to take any new medication or supplement whether pharmaceutical, synthetic, natural or extract. Check Ncbi.gov and pubmed for clear detailed analysis of what you are taking through studies including studies on toxicity, possible interactions, conclusive experiment analysis, general information, and medical use. Efficacy, and uses in prognosis of ailments and health. Wiki's always a good foreground for general info too.
people doing the nootropic scene. Definitely better than just checking out reddits.
and finally, don't just take it on a doctor's word. If they knew any better they would be letting their patients know about pubmed and ncbi.gov, but I've never heard one mention it. although they use it all the time for research or taking a refresher course on a certain medical subject.
Medical students use these as referential sources for studying through out their college education. But no one in a doctor's office ever tells patients about it even though, its to everyone's best benefit to know what they're being diagnosed with, prescribed, or if given invasive or potentially dangerous forms of treatment, a chance to know what they are getting into, many a time, unnecessarily.
We had the free information to resolve many major medical issues in the medical field and business, but a doctor or nurse never mentioned to their patients about the free resources they use because they will state that their patient is unqualified to know about their own treatment or medical problems. Utterly absurd.
also these sites also have a focus on toxicity of uses of things that don't pertain to medicine or drug use. Including reports of hospitalization and effects of toxic contaminants in our environment whether it be at work, home, or local natural ecosystems, food additives. etc.
any drug you've taken in the past will have some info in there whether sanctioned by established authority of a political nature or denied, while legal sale has been allowed through clandestine markets of unknown reputation or credability, You can find medical information on such subjects pertaining what has been sold at ncbi and pubmed. If big pharma can't follow the rules, Why would any else be in the business, and medicine is not what we need the most. Its truth.
a simple misconduct and appropriation at the doctor's office that has lead to unnecessary unethical practices.
i.e example:
"alright, from what I can see, l-theanine is practically past gras safety standards. Generally regarded as safe.
so is ashwaganda, although you want to get a quality distributor.
Vitamin D3 is always good.
Millepertuis I'd have to check since I haven't heard of that."
Check all your supplements or medications on ncbi.gov, and pubmed.gov for detrimental interactions.
Many references and citations from university studies, and medical research institutes can be found at the bottom of almost all medical documents. God bless.

Doctors in general are not educated in the healthy ways of living, including healthy nutrition, while being educated about anatomy and surgical procedures. They get paid by the medication industry for prescribing medications from those businesses, and it is enough payment to motivate them to prescribe medication. Those in the medication industry these days are not in the business to get people on medication well, but to keep them alive and continually needing medication. Doctors in general will not give you information about using preventable ways for problems to health, even some that can reverse the problems people come to, certainly in the case of nutrition.

Understanding basic medical information is essential for everyone because it helps people make better decisions about their health and respond quickly in emergencies. Everyone should know the common symptoms of serious conditions such as heart attacks, strokes, and severe allergic reactions so they can seek medical help immediately.

This is why a DO (doctor of osteopathic medicine) maybe better. They try to get to the root cause of the problem rather than use medicine as a bandaid/ crutch.

I had a cardiac event immediately after my brother's demonic expression to harm my Mom. I thank God that I was at the grocery store and Not the hospital at the time.
God reminded me of how to cure myself and pulled me out of that attack with what was on the shelves.

I like DOs better too.
The old timers used to utilize things outside of the chemicals.
Even back then, my best friend, an Osteopath, told me he only had an hour or two of class time on nutrition. His kids and I were surprised.
He was an MD specialist, but would call the typical MDs Pill Pushers. 😄
 
Under ultraviolet light, the bones... what?

Under ultraviolet light, the bones... what?

(I am unable to read the article - I cannot load pages from 'X'.)
Let me help you Gary:



In 1980, a bioarchaeologist at Emory University named George Armelagos was studying ancient human bones from Sudanese Nubia, the kingdom that flourished along the Nile south of Egypt between roughly 350-550 CE, when something stopped him. Under ultraviolet light, the bones glowed.

They fluoresced with a distinctive yellow-green color that Armelagos recognized immediately, because the same glow appeared in the bones of modern patients who had been treated with tetracycline.

The antibiotic binds tightly to calcium and phosphorus in bone tissue as the body metabolizes it, leaving a permanent fluorescent marker. What Armelagos was seeing in bones nearly two thousand years old was chemically identical to what he saw in twentieth-century medical subjects.

The archaeological community was skeptical. The received history of antibiotics began with Alexander Fleming’s discovery of penicillin in 1928, and tetracycline itself was not isolated until 1948. The idea that a pre-literate population in the Nile valley had been routinely ingesting it seemed implausible, and the initial findings were dismissed as post-mortem contamination from soil bacteria.

Armelagos spent three more decades building the case. He eventually partnered with Mark Nelson, a leading tetracycline specialist at Paratek Pharmaceuticals, who agreed to perform a definitive chemical analysis.

The process required dissolving the ancient bones in hydrogen fluoride, one of the most corrosive and dangerous acids in existence. What the resulting liquid-chromatography mass-spectrometry analysis found was not a trace of tetracycline.

The bones were saturated with it. Multiple tetracycline variants were identified, including chlortetracycline and oxytetracycline, in concentrations indicating sustained exposure beginning in early childhood and continuing throughout life.

Ninety percent of the Nubian individuals tested showed the labeling. The exposure had not been accidental or occasional. It had been lifelong and deliberate.
The source was their beer.

Ancient Egyptian and Nubian brewing began with grain, typically emmer wheat or barley, which in that region was naturally contaminated with Streptomyces, a soil bacterium that produces tetracycline as a metabolic byproduct.

The grain was germinated, made into bread, then incompletely baked to preserve an active center, and finally fermented in vats of water. The standard practice was to seed each new batch with ten percent of the previous one, which kept the Streptomyces culture alive and active from batch to batch in a continuous chain.

The resulting brew was thick, sour, low in alcohol, and highly nutritious. Everyone drank it, including children as young as two years old.

The critical question Armelagos could not fully resolve was whether the Nubians understood what they were doing. The consensus among researchers is that they almost certainly did not know the mechanism.

They had no concept of bacteria, no understanding of antibiotics as a drug class, and no language for what tetracycline was doing in their bodies.

What they likely did know, accumulated through generations of observation and passed down as practical knowledge, was that this particular preparation of beer had medicinal effects.

Ancient Egyptian and Jordanian medical texts record beer being used to treat gum disease, wounds, and other infections.

The brewing method that produced tetracycline appears to have been deliberately maintained and refined over centuries, not by any understanding of the chemistry involved, but by the accumulated recognition that it worked.

I was misled to think that Hydrofluoric acid was like Alien blood, from the classic movie. Although it eats through glass and metal apparently doesn't do much to proteins. Your comment inspired me to listen to this video by a guy.who looks like an older Einstein. Lol
I'll post it since it's handy, but no need to watch it if you aren't into chemistry. The take away is I that you never want this guy to watch Breaking Bad with you. He will spoil it by correcting the chemistry throughout. 😄
