Don't Get Sick!
Resistance exercises increase skeletal muscle fiber size and number. That is good for everyone, especially those with obesity or type 2 diabetes. That’s because muscle fibers use more glucose, lowers blood sugar, and control diabetes. Coupled with intermittent fasting, resistance exercises can burn many calories and body fat and produces weight loss. Resistance exercises are…
This article features a study that showed that ketosis could start earlier when high-intensity aerobic exercise is done at the start of fasting. Ketosis is the state the ketone levels are high enough to be an energy source. In times of no caloric intake, glucose gets depleted, and the body starts to convert body fat…
This article presents a study that shows that exercise suppresses the release of the hunger hormone to delay hunger while fasting. The study was presented at the International Journal of Exercise Science conference in 2021. The researchers were from Brigham Young University. Brigham Young is the second president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day…
This article includes two case reports from a male and female and recounts the health improvements in their pelvic area after doing kettlebell exercises. Specifically, the article deals with positive changes regarding stress incontinence, vaginal dryness, hemorrhoids, and erectile dysfunction. Next, I explain how kettlebell swings improved their health. A kettlebell (KB) looks like a…
This article was first released on March 13, 2019. It is republished with new information. One concern with intermittent fasting is lean muscle may shrink. This article presents two studies that showed that lean mass or muscles are preserved with intermittent fasting. The first study showed that after eight weeks of alternate-day fasting, the muscles…
I initially posted on August 15, 2020. This article is updated with more information. This article shows several studies that show that minor improvements in the level of physical activities can make a difference in life expectancy no matter what age or gender. Highlights Exercise lowers the risk of dying early from all causes. “All…
This article was initially published on May 16, 2019. It has been updated. What is Cytokine? Cytokines are signaling proteins. Think of cytokines as text messages from one organ to another organ. The signal may be a ‘yes,’ “no,’ ‘make some more” (positive feedback loop), or that’s enough (negative feedback loop). The signals may be…
This post was initially released on October 25, 2020. It has been updated. Intermittent fasting has many benefits for diabetics. It reduces blood sugar, lowers weight, triglycerides, and total cholesterol, and decreases medication need. However, people with Type 2 diabetes or adult-onset diabetes who would like to practice intermittent fasting should avoid complications. Possible Complications…
Wim Hof is a man with extraordinary abilities. In a GQ article that featured the Ice Man, Wim Hof “holds 20 world records ranging from the world’s longest ice bath – 1 hour and 52 minutes and 42 seconds – to his successful attempt to scale Mount Everest wearing nothing but shorts, shoes, and a…
An article published in the New England Journal of Medicine proposed a mechanism for myocarditis after COVID-19 or COVID vaccination. Here is how it happens. During COVID-19 infection or after COVID vaccination, antibodies develop. Anti-spike protein antibodies bind to the spike proteins of the SARS-CoV-2. The antibodies prevent the virus from attaching to the ACE2…
The Journal of Immunology published a significant study that lives up to its name. Cutting Edge: Circulating Exosomes with COVID Spike Protein Are Induced by BNT162b2 (Pfizer–BioNTech) Vaccination prior to Development of Antibodies: A Novel Mechanism for Immune Activation by mRNA Vaccines The study found that people vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine have exosomes carrying…
Observations of COVID-19 Vaccine Contamination A study was published sometime in July that showed that graphene is present in a Pfizer Comirnaty vaccine. The entire research was translated algorithmically and presented at the Spanish study’s Whole English translation showing 99% Graphene Oxide in the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine. So far, no published studies have confirmed their findings,…
This article is about one effect of exercise on the immune system to stop tumor growth. Cancer prevention is always relevant but more so presently. A recent study discussed in Study: SARS-CoV-2 Spike Proteins Impaired DNA Repair That Can Lead to Defective Immunity and Cancers talked about the negative effect of vaccination on the immune system…
Luc Montagnier is a Nobel Prize-winning French virologist for his discovery of HIV. Back in May 2021, Montagnier had an interview that went viral. He warned about the spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants if mass vaccination was done a pandemic. The RAIR Foundation reported the interview. Below are excerpts from the interview. How do you view…
If a person had COVID-19, then got vaccinated and then a breakthrough infection. His antibodies will be positive after the breakthrough infection. How will we know if the antibodies are from the disease or vaccination? That’s the study’s objective from the Department of Medicine of the University of Wisconsin at Madison. The study Anti-membrane and…
A preprint article, SARS-CoV-2 infection in free-ranging white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), published two days ago, describes SARS-CoV-2 in white-tailed deer in Ohio. The authors from the Ohio State University, Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, and the National Institute of Health found 129 free-ranging white-tailed deer from Northeast Ohio to have SARS-CoV-2 by RT-PCR in nasal swabs. The…
In the past, myocarditis or inflammation of the heart muscles is rarely seen after vaccination.[1] Reports of myocarditis in the military prompted this study, Myocarditis Following Immunization With mRNA COVID-19 Vaccines in Members of the US Military. The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) published the study. [2]. Twenty-three men are in the study….
Have you ever wondered why some drugs or vaccines that pass FDA approval turn out to have severe adverse effects that they have to be withdrawn from the market? Most of you probably know that medications undergo clinical trials for years before they are released. During that time, the positive and adverse effects are both…
Risk prediction of Covid-19 related Death and Hospital Admission in Adults after Covid-19 vaccination: national prospective cohort is a study published in the British Medical Journal on September 17, 2021 What is the use of the study? The study is about how the authors developed, used, and verified the QCovid3 algorithm to determine who among…
The CDC reported an increase in childhood obesity in its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, Longitudinal Trends in Body Mass Index Before and During the COVID-19 Pandemic Among Persons Aged 2–19 Years — United States, 2018–2020. Among a cohort of 432,302 persons aged 2–19 years, the rate of body mass index (BMI) increase approximately doubled…
