La mezcla de tecnología invasiva para el control poblacional, ideología supremacista blanca y religión cristiana (evangélica y católica) que diseñan este grupo de Silicon Valley es muy, muy peligroso. x.com/vbaosv/status/…

La muerte no es como en las películas, pocos filmes han reflejado la realidad. Es bueno saber como es el proceso de morir de forma no traumática ni súbita. Muy recomendable x.com/mlalanda/statu…

VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT. Dear friends, we have published the largest analytical study of Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Siddha, Unani and Folk-Traditional Medicinal products that have harmed patients - presenting with liver damage - to our department. This is the most exhaustive analytical study that correlated clinical outcomes in such patients. Interestingly, one of the Reviewers who peer-reviewed our paper (notification after paper publication) and cleared it for publication is a senior professor of Ayurveda (Rasashastra and Bhaishajya Kalpana) at All India Institute of Ayurveda. This makes our paper even more impactful. Here is a plain language summary of the study's major findings, highlighting what patients and the public need to know about the safety of alternative medicines: Severe Liver Damage is a Major Risk: The study looked at 386 alternative and complementary medicines taken by patients who experienced liver damage. It found that these products frequently triggered a severe, life-threatening form of liver failure, called Acute-on-chronic liver failure (or ACLF) which resulted in death for nearly 40% of the patients who developed it. Unlabeled Products Can Be Deadly: Taking "unlabeled" products—those sold without proper ingredient lists, manufacturer details, or batch numbers—was a strong predictor of death. The risk of dying increased the more unlabeled products a patient consumed, showing how dangerous an unregulated supply chain can be. Data revealed a dose-response relationship where death rates escalated progressively, reaching 42.9% among patients who consumed three or more unlabeled products. Dangerous Levels of Heavy Metals: A shocking number of the tested products were heavily contaminated with toxic metals like mercury, lead, arsenic, and cadmium, often at levels far above safety limits. Exposure to cadmium, in particular, was strongly linked to patients developing the most severe form of liver failure. Exposure to cadmium was strongly and significantly associated with the development of ACLF (75.9% in exposed versus 22.6% in unexposed patients). Hidden Prescription Drugs: Almost one-third of the products secretly contained modern pharmaceutical drugs, meaning patients were taking them without knowing. These hidden drugs included steroids, antibiotics, and painkillers, and some were even banned or well-known to cause liver damage. "Natural" Doesn't Always Mean Safe: Over 40% of the products contained plant ingredients that are medically documented to be toxic to the liver. Well-known herbs like Giloy (Tinospora cordifolia) and Ashwagandha were among the most common potentially harmful plants found in the products. Secret Animal Ingredients: Testing revealed that nearly a third of the products contained undisclosed animal ingredients (such as dairy, marine products, or animal extracts). This is a major concern for vegans, vegetarians, and people with religious dietary restrictions who believe they are taking plant-based medicines. Risks from Concentrated Plant Extracts: The study discovered that high concentrations of certain common plant fats and compounds (called phytosterols) were tied to higher rates of severe liver failure. This shows that highly concentrated "natural" extracts can act differently in the body and become harmful, even if they come from everyday plants.

Un buen ejemplo del daño de la negación vacunal x.com/asjustinX/stat…
Justnx@asjustinX

En el colegio de Sebastián hay un brote de varicela. El director convocó a los padres y en la reunión salió a la luz que tres familias habían decidido no vacunar a sus hijos por "razones filosóficas y naturales." Los demás padres estallaron. Una madre se levantó y dijo que su hijo estaba en quimioterapia y que no podía vacunarse y que esas tres familias lo habían puesto en riesgo de muerte real. Los padres de los niños no vacunados respondieron que era su derecho decidir sobre los cuerpos de sus hijos, que la ciencia también se equivoca, que ellos investigaron. El director no podía expulsarlos porque no había ley que lo obligara. La reunión terminó a los gritos. Esa noche en el grupo de WhatsApp del curso, alguien publicó los nombres de las tres familias. Algunos dijeron que lo borren del chat. Otros los felicitaron por exponer "la verdad." El niño con leucemia lleva tres semanas sin ir a clases. Sus padres trabajan y no tienen con quién dejarlo. Nadie habla de eso.
