@DrJesseMorse 49 years vs 1 year doesn't seem very comparable. What are the achilles tears/year in 2017-2018 or 2018-2019? Lots can change in 49 years. Doesnt seem right to compare the two.

NBA 1970-2019: 0.94 Achilles tears/year 2024-2025: 8 Achilles tendon ruptures NFL 1971-2021: 5 Achilles tears in QBs 2022-2025: 4 Achilles tears in QBs Probably nothing.

9) Sauna 4-7x per week = 50% lower cardiovascular mortality vs 1x per week. It mimics moderate-intensity exercise physiologically. Adds to exercise benefits when combined. Hot tubs provide similar blood pressure benefits for those without sauna access.

@PennMedicine Thank you for putting out this video instagram.com/reel/DLlF_IIvy… I think it is important for everyone to watch it, and understand the implications of these budget cuts. Cancer should not be political.

@DrJesseMorse For someone who doesnt have access to USP methylene blue, what is the best OTC form of it? Any specific brand? Thank you!

Get this man some ozone, ideally EBOO, some high-dose Vitamin C, and IV Methylene Blue. He would be back on the court in no time!

the most terrifying truth isn't death. it's that we're wide awake right now, hearts beating, lungs breathing, skin feeling, eyes seeing - alive in this unrepeatable moment - and we're choosing to sleepwalk. we worry about tomorrow while today slips through our fingers like water.

weekend motivation,

@DrJesseMorse Congrats!

I got to marry my best friend yesterday!!!

finally completed a very important task i’ve been avoiding for several months. it took 8 minutes and zero effort on my part and i felt immediate and immense relief. i probably won’t learn from this

Research suggests that up to 40% of cancer cases could be prevented through lifestyle changes. The evidence is now overwhelming: exercise is not just supportive—it’s a therapeutic intervention that recalibrates tumor biology, enhances treatment tolerance, and improves survival outcomes. Today’s interview features Dr. Kerry Courneya. With over 600 peer-reviewed studies, he is one of the most influential figures in exercise oncology. Even if you aren't someone who has personally experienced cancer in one form or another, you need to watch this episode. Episode 99 is Available now on X, YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.
