William Makis is selling treatments that don’t work to desperate people, who die from treatable cancer. He is not any kind of “healing practitioner” & he isn’t a licensed physician. He’s a scammer who tricks his victims into killing themselves with snake oil.
Shannon Joy@ShannonJoyRadio

William Makis is bringing cancer CURES to the poor. This is why he is the most persecuted healing practitioner in the world ------->

No fiber actually helps feed the microbiome that produces short chain fatty acids that serve as a tonic for your gut. Please see a registered dietitian if you have questions and not someone who makes stuff up
Simmo@yoursimmo11

Telling a man with a compromised gut to eat 35g of fiber is like telling someone with a broken leg to run it off. Fiber on an inflamed gut lining doesn't "keep you regular." It bloats you, feeds bacterial overgrowth, and makes everything worse. Fix the gut first and then fiber becomes something your body can actually use instead of something it fights.

If only it were so simple but it’s not and most bodies regulate your sugar tightly -
Cary Kelly@CaryKelly11

Dr. Thomas Seyfried says "The higher your blood sugar, the faster the tumor grows. The lower your blood sugar, the slower the tumor grows. Undeniable." He says the way to manage cancer without toxicity is to simultaneously restrict the two fuels cancer needs to grow: Glucose and Glutamine. The good news is there's a fuel that we can use very efficiently and cancer cannot: ketones. How do you make ketones? Consume little or no carbs and fast. Glutamine can be managed with drugs. To be fair, mainstream oncology disputes Seyfried's metabolic approach, instead relying on expensive chemotherapy that can run $100,000+ per year instead of glutamine restriction, a low carb diet and fasting.

The Flexner Report didn’t hand medicine to “Big Pharma.” It did something far less conspiratorial and far more disruptive: it shut down bad medical schools. Before 1910, American medicine was a marketplace of: •proprietary schools run for profit •correspondence courses •homeopathy, eclectic medicine, and outright quackery No standards, no real science requirement, no consistent clinical training. Enter Abraham Flexner, backed by the Carnegie Foundation. His report demanded: •university-based medical education •laboratory science (biology, chemistry, pathology) •real hospital training The result? •About half of U.S. medical schools closed •Admission standards rose •Medicine moved from trade → profession Now, here’s where the modern myth sneaks in: people retrofit today’s distrust of pharma onto a 1910 reform. But in 1910: •The modern pharmaceutical industry barely existed •There were no statins, no antibiotics (penicillin comes later), no randomized trials •“Drug companies taking over” wasn’t even structurally possible Did industry influence medicine later? Of course. Especially post-WWII with: •antibiotics •regulatory frameworks like the FDA gaining power •expansion of commercial drug development But that’s mid-20th century onward, not Flexner. And the “profit over patients” claim ignores something inconvenient: •Life expectancy rose •Surgical mortality plummeted •Infectious diseases that once wiped out cities became treatable Not because medicine got captured—but because it got scientific. If you want to criticize modern medicine, there are legitimate angles: •pricing structures •industry-funded trials •regulatory capture risks But blaming the Flexner Report is like blaming the invention of sanitation for modern plumbing costs
Dr. Ammous@AmmousMD

In 1910 the pharmaceutical industry took over the practice of medicine with the Flexner Report. Since then, the driving force has been profit over patient outcomes.

@drterrysimpson Tastes differ. They are one of my favourite vegetables. I just find them ridiculously expensive in comparison to other vegetables like green and red cabbage, which I also love, but sprouts are more convenient in addition to that and they taste better (to me).

@drterrysimpson mate you've never had brussels sprouts fried rice. Sautee ginger, garlic, and spring onion. Add leftover rice. Season with white pepper, soy sauce, oyster sauce, shaoxing wine. Add leftover choux bruxellois and stir fry it hot on a hot flame. Garnish with spring onion.
