    GREAT VIDEO! One key factor that shouldn’t be ignored is the goal of the study: to get a newly developed drug on the market. Doubtlessly, they’d prefer it became popular enough to compete with or even topple top drugs in its class. It’s part of the problem these days with research conducted by drug manufacturers. It’s all too easy to skew statistics to manufacture a desired in the interest of profit.

    Fasting is going to lower risk even more, as cancer is really a metabolic disease. Fasting and low carb will have a great effect to prevent this. Some of the many benefits of doing occasional extended fasting: Blood clotting is reduced and blood clots and arterial plaque are reabsorbed into the body. High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fibrosis/scarring is reversed over time.
    Stomach acid is reduced over time while fasting and can allow for the healing of treatment resistant ulcers, but some patients may need continued acid reducation medication while fasting.
    Telomeres are lengthened and fasting also increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors.
    Fasting reduces pain and anxiety by stimulating the endocannabinoid system in a similar way to CBD oil.
    Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion of bacteria, plaques and viruses by the immune system. It will also remove any 'foreign material' that is not supposed to be there.
    Reflexes and short term memory are increased.
    Fasts from 36-96 h actually INCREASE metabolic rate due to norepinephrine release!
    After 72 hours or more fasted, your body recycles as much as 1/3 of all immune bodies and creates new ones, rejuvenating your entire immune system.
    Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures.
    Thymus is regenerated, which suppresses aging and renews the immune system. The thymus also plays a vital role in fighting cancer.
    Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue! The hunger hormone ghrelin also lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting.
    Blood sugar and insulin are lowered, allowing white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Some viruses activate glycolosis (the release of sugar in the body) and clinically it has been shown that decreasing glucose metabolism in the body weakens the influenza virus.
    When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell which are used to produce organelles and proteins. This means the mechanisms needed by viruses to replicate are by and large unavailable when you are in a deeply fasted state.
    What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast, though if the amount is tiny you will go back into ketosis very quickly. Most teas and herbs are OK. Most supplements and meds will either break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many meds are dangerous to take while fasting.
    Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building.
    Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility, especially in women with PCOS.
    The hormone Leptin is an immunomodulator that keeps the body from attacking itself and obesity causes leptin resistance. Fasting very quickly reduces leptin resistance and leptin levels and one day of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half and gets your immune system working properly again!
    Does the body preferentially prefer glucose as a fuel? No, except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids. Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose.
    Fasting stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will cause cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses and kill cancerous and senescent cells. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses.
    Deep ketosis virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body. When not in ketosis, the brain can only burn carbohydrate, which produces a great deal of damaging ROS the brain has to deal with.
    It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency and thereby making cells better able to fight off infection. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism and cancer prevention!
    When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, which destroys them. Senescent cells are responsible for many of the effects of aging and are a root cause of the development of cancer.
    Fasting also releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth. This can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers.
    Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level.
    A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs.
    Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia.
    Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. Those with Addison's disease may also be unable to fast without liberal use of exogenous ketones, depending on severity. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness then simply break the fast and seek advice.

    How many "mechanistic" studies of masks even consider the mechanics of INHALATION? It is completely irrelevant how much exhaled virus makes it into the environment if we are not inhaling particles of various sizes at the same rate. The fact is, larger, wet particles have low air drag compared to their mass, so they have significant inertia and are virtually lubricated against being drawn in when someone is inhaling. The finest particles have lots of air drag and their inertia is low, so they move along with air almost as if they were themselves a gas, which is where the word "AERosol" comes from. It is only the filtration of the finest particles that really matter, and masks are very poor at that.
    Even an accurate assessment of the mask filtration of total inoculum in all particles sizes would be a "correct answer to the wrong question".

      @@exilius333 How? The masks don't seem to do it.
      I remember Vinay's friend Monica Ghandi suggesting a couple of years ago on the ZDogg show that just partially reducing viral load with masks could make a difference in severity of disease, so masking could make people get less sick but still get the full natural immunity benefit, but as I thought that through a bit, I thought that this would only make a difference in those whose immune systems were fast and responsive, the people who weren't going to get severely ill, anyway, and for those with poor immune response, just one lucky virus copy that started a replication avalanche would cause deep illness before the immune response. So, I think, if there's anything to Monica's theory, it's about helping those who don't really need the help, and failure to help those who really need it.

    • @johnsheehy4192

      Anyone who doubts what I am saying about particle size/shape/weight can conduct experiments. If you know someone who smokes or vapes (or do so yourself), have the person gently exhale smoke so that it sits close to their face instead of blowing it far away in a narrow channel with velocity, and have them try to suck it back in when the next inhale. The smoke just sits there, like they didn't even inhale, because the only place that there is significant air velocity is right at the openings of the mouth or nose. Any smoke that is more than an inch from the orifice just acts like nothing is happening, even though the volume of inhaled air comes from an area with smoke in it. It takes TIME for particles to start moving at the speed of the air; the more air drag and the lower the mass, the quicker they reach the velocity of the air. Now, try it with a vacuum; surprise, surprise, not much better, even though the vaccum keeps drawing in air at high velocity and does not reverse, like inhalation. Take a water spritzer and spritz it into a beam of light in an otherwise darker room, and put the vacuum up to the visible droplets; again, droplets that are not in the very immediate vicinity of the mouth of the hose do not get drawn in.
      Anyone trying to sell you the efficacy of masks based on visual demonstrations of EXHALED droplets either doesn't know what they are talking about, or they know what they are talking about but are trying to trick you. Yes, masks are very effective at catching largish droplets, but that is a solution that has little to do with actual transmission, which occurs mainly with the finest particles. Even an N95 glued to your face at the edges passed a significant amount of the finest droplets, and passes even more when the electrostatic properties of the mask diminish over time from oils and moisture.

      An average interview framing usually places a subject in a medium closeup shot. With a focal length of less than 28mm, not only will you have to stand very close to the subject, but if the subject approaches the edges of the frame, it’s quite possible that barrel distortion or keystoning may happen to parts of their body. Facial features can become exaggerated, and that’s usually not desirable.

    I didn't hear them talk about putting patients on exercise. Even as placebo.
    But it's not about the patient, is it.

      Oh, it is. Its about how many deaths can be caused in the shortest amount of time. Decrease the surplus population.

    Maybe just ignore associative studies altogether until someone builds up an actual scientific study. There is so much noise in epidemiology you cant see the data because how thick the data is. Too many variables. The moment you ‘correct’ for ANYTHING you invalidate all the data.

    The influence of drug companies and activists in the process has undermined medicine's credibility. IMHO, doctors need to push back, throw out the snakeoil salesmen, and return to "do no harm." Stick to using well-designed, critically reviewed, randomized studies.

      The talk was about keeping up with literature in general. Very few medical papers are out relating to unexplained excess deaths, since no government wants to fund such research.

      Excess deaths are no mystery -
      COVID-19 is associated with higher subsequent mortality risk from heart disease and other causes (high impact)
      Delay in emergency care (High impact during COVID-19 and influenza peaks)
      Mortality displacement - People who otherwise may have died earlier had their systems been stressed by respiratory disease may now be succumbing to their underlying illnesses (Moderate impact, likely to reduce over time.)
      Delay in routine care (Low to Moderate impact, likely to increase over time.)

      @@gribbler1695 If this is true, then I would like to see VP post a video giving a detailed explanation including his thoughts on the issue. To my knowledge, he has not done so. He has only made jokes about the people pointing to their dead relatives and friends asking why. Actually suggesting that they are somehow crazy, and that no matter how many bodies pile up, that it's not actually evidence.
