This article discusses the study that showed that SARS-CoV-2 mRNA can be changed to DNA, making the body produce SARS-CoV-2 proteins.[1][2] Long-lasting exposure to human-produced SARS-CoV-2 proteins affects the immune system, as evident by the increase in IgG4, and makes the body more vulnerable to cancer and autoimmune development. With that summary, let’s proceed with…
This article discusses a new study that followed up 40 teenagers who developed myocarditis after receiving COVID jabs.[1] The American Heart Association journal Circulation published the research Cardiovascular Assessment up to One Year After COVID-19 Vaccine–Associated Myocarditis in July 2023.

In my years working in the emergency room, I have seen patients who got injured while doing exercises to get healthier. I’m no exception. Ever since I posted this article, Walk After Meals to Prevent Sky High Blood Sugars, I have been walking on the treadmill for about 20 to 40 minutes daily. However, I developed…
This article presents a study that could explain why some people react adversely to the Pfizer COVID-19 shots, and others do not. The authors from Denmark investigated the possibility of batch-dependent variation in light of the emergency-use authorization and large-scale vaccination programs of the COVID-19 “vaccines.

I have two hot water systems—a tankless by Rinnai and a Rheem Platinum Performance gas heater with a tank. I use the tankless more than the one with the water tank since it is more cost-effective. Gas heaters with tanks have to turn on and off the gas burner to keep the water hot, while…
This article aims to provide the reader with a set of tools (knowledge) that can be applied to achieve a blood sugar of less than 154.8 mg/dL (8.6 mmol/L) after one hour of eating. That’s because a blood sugar of more than 155 (rounded off) is associated with many common and deadly diseases. I wrote…
The blood-sugar level one hour after a meal (one-hour post-prandial blood sugar or 1PPS ) has been shown to predict future type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and many other common conditions that can drain time and treasure in old age. I wrote about them in Low One-Hour Post-Prandial Blood Sugar after One Cup of Rice. The…
This article shows presents a study from the Cleveland Clinic that shows that people who are up-to-date with the mRNA COVID-19 shots are more susceptible to a COVID-19 infection. Recently I published The Devastating Effects of IgG4 after the mRNA COVID shots which showed that one consequence is the increased risk of SARS-pCoV-2 reinfection. The recently published…
This article discusses the adverse health effects of the IgG4 that can develop after mRNA COVID-19 jabs. Ig stands for immunoglobulin, which is another name for antibodies. There are five major types of immunoglobulins. They are G, A, M, D, and E, designated as IgG, IgA, IgM, IgD, and IgE. They have different roles. IgAs are…
Yesterday I posted that A High One-hour After-Meal Blood Sugar Test Can Lead to Several Deadly Conditions. In it, I showed that a blood sugar of more than 154.8 mg/dL or 8.6 mmol/L is highly predictive of the development not only of future type 2 or adult-onset diabetes but also cardiovascular disease and others, including higher all-cause mortality. …
This article presents studies showing that the blood sugar level one hour after eating (post-prandial blood sugar) is highly predictive of many common diseases. At least here in the US, blood sugar levels at home can be easily checked with an inexpensive glucometer that can be bought without needing a prescription. I heard that a…
This article discusses some of the beneficial effects of vinegar. A high blood sugar of more than 140 mg/dl or 7.8 mmol/L two after a meal (post-prandial) is predictive of atherosclerosis in everyone (diabetics and non-diabetics) The study that made that conclusion is in a previous article. After-meal high blood sugar predicts Atherosclerosis better than…
In any airline flight, you will hear the flight attendants say something like, “In case of a drop in air pressure, oxygen masks will drop from the ceiling.” “Wear the mask and be aware that oxygen is present even though the bag does not inflate.” So what’s the bag for? You can imagine that the…
This article presents a study showing that doing the following on white bread can lower the blood sugar response after eating it. They are: Freezing and defrosting Toasting from fresh and Toasting following freezing and defrosting Background White bread is made of refined flour and is rapidly digested. The result is the immediate release and…
Previously, I wrote about the importance of eating breakfast in lowering blood sugar the entire day — Eating rather than skipping breakfast results in lower blood sugars the whole day. This article presents a study that shows a high-protein breakfast lowers the blood sugar of people with type 2 diabetes for the whole day. The…
This article presents four studies conducted among healthy people, those with metabolic syndrome and those with type 2 diabetes, showing that eating breakfast results in better blood sugar levels for the whole day. Background Before dawn, the body prepares for morning activities by secreting counter-regulatory hormones, including growth hormone, glucagon, cortisol, and adrenaline. They are…
This article is a repost from 2021. Still appropriate for Mothers’ Day. Fetal microchimerism is when the fetal cells travel outside the fetus and embed in the mother’s body during pregnancy.
