I’ll lay out the facts again. My father had lifelong low LDL, but also a history of obesity and metabolic syndrome. He had a 99% LAD occlusion by age 44. My mother has had lifelong high LDL, has always been lean, and has never had notable features of metabolic syndrome. Her coronary CT angiogram at age 60 showed CAD-RADS 0. So yes, one could do the mental gymnastics and speculate that I simply rolled the genetic dice perfectly — that (despite inheriting high Lp(a) from my father rather than my mother), I somehow inherited my mother’s protective variants and not my father’s harmful ones, apart from LDL, which is the one feature I share with my mother. Oh — and an exome sequence also didn’t detect this perfect genetic chance event. Or, alternatively, one could acknowledge the elephant in the room: metabolic health. Feel free to choose the mental triple backflip if you prefer.

“But are you genetically protected?” 🧬 After seven years of astronomical cholesterol levels, I have 0 mm3 plaque. People are now asking whether I’m simply genetically protected. But consider this: My father had a 99% occlusion of his left anterior descending artery by age 44. I also have high Lp(a), a largely genetically determined risk factors So are my arteries clean because I’m genetically gifted? What do you think? Maybe LDL and ApoB, in the context of actually good metabolic health, do not behave the same way they do in metabolically unhealthy populations? Maybe we should spend a little more time studying metabolically healthy people directly?

The video I released minutes ago is the most important video I’ve ever produced: youtu.be/TmloFV0W6iQ For nearly 7 years, I’ve lived with cholesterol levels so high that many physicians predicted I would be either dead or dying by now. I did not do this to be contrarian. I did not do this to be reckless. I did it because I believe there are fundamental question we still do not fully understand about cholesterol and cardiovascular disease. If I’m right, it challenges some of the deepest assumptions in modern cardiology. If I’m wrong, I may pay for it with my life. I know what I'm gambling. So when you watch this video, I want you to ask yourself one question: Why would someone spend the better part of a decade risking his life on a bold hypothesis? One final thought: Outliers are not an excuse to stop thinking. They are an invitation to start. Please watch from beginning to end, and leave a 👍 and a thoughtful comment if you have the time ♥️🫀

Epic showdown in Kentucky tomorrow. Main event: America vs Israel If Israel wins, they’ll own our Congress. And if anyone denies that, they’re an obvious liar. If Massie wins, America has a pulse. And we’re back in the ball game.

Agreed, DoctorTro. Neil's stat ignores that ~1900s life expectancy at birth (~47-55) was crushed by infant/child deaths from infections, not diet. Adults who reached 20 often lived into their 70s-80s—similar to today minus modern chronic burdens from processed foods/seed oils. Data backs separating acute vs. lifestyle factors.

A lot of people are criticizing Carnivore because of how old and exhausted I look on the recent TFP interview. I shouldn't have to tell you this is stupid in large part because you don't know what I've been through or what I'm going through—and some of it is frankly private. It's also stupid because the science I talk about doesn't depend on my looks. Sure, it's just an anecdote if Carnivore puts my bipolar disorder into permanent remission, but if I look tired—God forbid—it's the diet. Yes. I got very sick in 2018 and I'm still recovering, plus adjusting to menopause. And I had almost no sleep that week. Plus I'm not really a makeup person and I'm not trying to meet your glam standard. Whatever. None of that means that Carnivore is inherently unhealthy. This is two of me at 43, after EIGHT FULL YEARS Carnivore, a couple years before I overdosed on vitamin A and suffered subsequent gut infections leading to chronic fatigue; one from last year when I had been experimenting OFF carnivore for two years after being ill a long time without resolution; and finally one from March 15 of this year, about three weeks after the TFP interview but having had proper sleep.

Also, if you've been following closely, you know I did months of weekly dry fasting followed by months of retatrutide. Rapid weight loss isn't always kind to the face.

@JoshRainerGold @lowmegatron Same. Always heard it was Graves’. But would honestly be consistent with the Peatarian view that hyperthyroidism doesn’t exist outside of overdosing on thyroid-hormone…

JFK was an early adopter of thyroid hormone T3. He was diagnosed hypothyroid in 1955 and sometime between ’55 and ’61 started T3-only treatment. Some reports claim he started in 1955, which was the year before T3 (liothyronine/cytomel) was officially introduced to the market. T4/levothyroxine had been on the market for a few years, yet he used T3. “JFK's autoimmune polyglandular syndrome first affected his adrenal glands but eventually attacked his thyroid gland. Dr. Travell had to start him on thyroid replacement in 1955 (liothyronine/T3) and he took it continuously until death.” “Kennedy was diagnosed as having hypothyroidism when he was hospitalized at New York Hospital in May 1955 (22). With the consent of Shorr as the consulting endocrinologist, Kennedy began treatment with liothyronine. The discharge summary from New York Hospital for Kennedy's hospitalization from 26 May 1955 to 2 June 1955 contains record of basal metabolic testing, namely a basal metabolic rate of −15, consistent with mild hypothyroidism; of note, liothyronine is not listed as one of the discharge medications (23).” Interestingly, they used basal metabolic testing, which avoids many pitfalls associated with thyroid/TSH blood tests. This BMR test is performed by measuring oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production while you lie down, fully rested, in a fasted state, in a thermoneutral room, without movement, to calculate your energy use at complete rest. It is a fairly accurate method of estimating thyroid hormone activity, as T3 elevates the basal metabolic rate. For a while, around 1940, it was suggested as a gold standard for thyroid testing before blood tests became widespread. "The BMR remains unique and irreplaceable as the only quantitative measure of total body energy production readily available to the clinician... the BMR remains the most satisfactory index of the overall metabolic effect of thyroid hormone on the organism." — Werner and Ingbar: The Thyroid Broda Barnes developed the Basal Temperature Test after noting the close correlation between BMR, thyroid status, and body temperature; he used it as a substitute for a BMR test. He employed this method effectively in a large number of patients. "There is a definite range for normal basal temperature. Below that range, low thyroid function is indicated. The temperature test has checked out against the basal metabolism and other thyroid tests and has revealed hypothyroidism when the other tests have done so and when they have failed to do so. And when patients with low basal temperature have had thyroid treatment, their symptoms have disappeared as their basal temperature has climbed. In thousands of patients, use of the basal temperature test to detect hypothyroidism and then to correct it-starting with very small doses of thyroid medication and increasing them, if necessary, until retesting has shown the temperature rising has led to gratifying results." — Broda Barnes

The FDA intends to ban NDT. NDT - Natural Desiccated Thyroid is marketed under several brand names worldwide. NDT contains T4 and T3 thyroid hormones, four to five times more T4 than T3. The dose is measured in grains. One grain of Armour contains 9 mcg of T3, and 38 mcg of T4. T4 is a storage form of thyroid that has to be converted to T3 to have a beneficial effect. NDT works well for many people because it has some T3, which helps T4 conversion, and the T4 gives it a longer-lasting effect. Some people need more T3 relative to T4 to convert T4 efficiently. Others need T3 only. Brands of NDT include: Armour Thyroid NP Thyroid Nature-Throid Westhroid Thyroid (Erfa) Thyroid-S WP Thyroid

Selvom Israel måske ikke vinder denne krig, må man stadig tage hatten af for Netenyahus temmelig succesfulde kamp gennem flere årtier for at styrke Israels regionale magt. For præcis 30 år siden skrev en række amerikansk-jødiske neocons en ny strategi under overskriften “A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm” til en ung Netenyahu, der netop var blevet israelsk statsminister. Kort sagt gik strategien ud på, at man måtte tage skeen i den anden hånd: Slut med blødsøden socialistisk zionisme med fokus på Oslo-proces, fredsplaner og international idealisme. Nu skulle man være mere proaktiv, vise styrke og afskrækkelse samt værne om Israels nationale identitet og økonomi: “When Israel is on a sound economic footing, and is free, powerful, and healthy internally, it will no longer simply manage the Arab-Israeli conflict; it will transcend it.” Planen var at gå mere aktivt efter at eliminere Israels fjender. Man ville af med Saddam Hussein i Irak, destabilisere Syrien, gå langt hårdere til palæstinenserne samt svække Iran og Hizbollah. Flere af forfatterne fik poster under Bushs administration, og uanset hvad men ellers måtte mene om Netenyahu, så må man tage hatten af for, at man er kommet imponerende langt med strategien ved betydeligt at have ændret magtbalancen i israelsk favør her 30 år senere.

As the US and Iran negotiate, this is the key to the outcome of the war: No president will ever think it worthwhile to attack Iran again. Maybe Trump is crazy enough, but no one else will think it worth the cost. Iran will likely become more aggressive. richardhanania.com/p/what-iran-won

Ny måling giver @DanskDf1995 hele 11,9% af stemmerne. Kigger man på alle partier, så ligner det at den opbakning nok skal findes blandt vælgere hos hhv. Borgernes Parti og Socialdemokratiet. Men måske også fra andre blå partier, i en tid hvor DF og Morten Messerschmidt umiddelbart lader til at stå stærkest i folks bevidsthed.

Selenium has been tested in rodents. It reduces but does not prevent the damage entirely. The effect is partly due to reducing lipid peroxidation, caused by excess iodine. Other lipid peroxidation inhibitors are probably somewhat, too. Vitamins C and E (especially) do this experimentally in the thyroid. Zinc can inhibit lipid peroxidation, so that makes sense, but I haven't read anything on it in this specific context. I think framing this as anything other than harm from unnecessarily excessive iodine dosing is incorrect. From likely most to least protective: selenium > vitamin E > vitamin C > zinc.

Japan has very high iodine intake. Hypothyroidism rates increases with iodine intake in Japan—based on urinary iodine output. In one study, iodine restriction reversed hypothyroidism in 55% of people. Some of those people were later given enormous doses of iodine (25 mg daily) for 2-4 weeks and became hypothyroid again. “These results indicate that 1) the prevalence of hypothyroidism in iodine sufficient areas may be associated with the amount of iodine ingested; 2) hypothyroidism is more prevalent and marked in subjects consuming further excessive amounts of iodine; and 3) excessive intake of iodine should be considered an etiology of hypothyroidism in addition to chronic thyroiditis in these areas.” —Association between dietary iodine intake and prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism in the coastal regions of Japan “...Also, it has been reported that restricting the iodine intake in patients with hypothyroidism secondary to Hashimoto's thyroiditis residing in Japan, where ambient iodine intake is extremely high, restores thyroid function to normal (20). This phenomenon might partially explain the recent report from Japan that hypothyroidism in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis might not be permanent (21), even though the disappearance of TSH blocking antibodies has been proposed as the reason for recovery of thyroid function in these patients.” —Iodine and the Thyroid: 33 Years of Study “Twenty-two patients with spontaneously occurring primary hypothyroidism were studied to evaluate the spontaneous reversibility of the hypothyroid state. Twelve (54.5%) became euthyroid after restriction of iodine intake for 3 weeks (reversible type). In the remaining 10 patients, thyroid function did not improve with restriction of iodine alone, and thus, replacement therapy was required, (irreversible type). In the reversible type, 1) radioactive iodine uptake after 1 week of restricted iodine intake was higher than in the irreversible type [50.0 +/- 12.2% (+/- SD) vs. 4.3 +/- 3.2%; P less than 0.01], 2) the perchlorate discharge test was positive in 2 of 10 patients, and 3) the iodine-perchlorate discharge test, carried out in 7 of 8 patients with negative perchlorate discharge test, was positive in 6. Seven patients with the reversible type were given 25 mg iodine daily for 2-4 weeks; all became hypothyroid again. Two patients had a history of habitual ingestion of seaweed (25.4 and 43.1 mg iodine, respectively), but the remaining 10 patients ingested ordinary amounts of iodine (1-5 mg) daily. The patients with reversible hypothyroidism had focal lymphocytic thyroiditis changes in the thyroid biopsy specimen, whereas those with irreversible hypothyroidism had more severe destruction of the thyroid gland. These results indicate the existence of a reversible type of hypothyroidism sensitive to iodine restriction and characterized by relatively minor changes in lymphocytic thyroiditis histologically. Attention should be directed to this type of hypothyroidism, because thyroid function may revert to normal with iodine restriction alone.” —Studies of hypothyroidism in patients with high iodine intake.

Iodine was identified in 1812. In 1816, it was used for thyroid issues (goiter). Only a year later, reports of adverse effects from excessive doses were noted. “In his second memoir on iodine, published later in 1820, Coindet recognized the dangers involved and emphasized the need for caution, warning against overdosage or administering it to ill patients or to those who could not be seen by their physicians daily. Untoward effects were noted in certain types of cases within a year after Coindet's introduction of iodine as a therapeutic measure for goiter. Anxiety, depression, emaciation, tremor, diarrhea, and nervous excitement were observed. In spite of these reactions and Coindet's warnings, however, his early successes were so dramatic that people even began to carry small bottles of iodine around their necks like amulets.”
