A breached blood-brain barrier isn’t just a neurological inconvenience – it’s a direct pathway to fatal outcomes, and the mechanisms are well understood.

Just 59 views of this paper that should be front page news. The COVID vaccine, which causes your body to produce spike protein which disrupts the blood-brain barrier is unsafe by design should never have been put on the market.

Executive summary

The new Jmii paper, “SARS-CoV-2 disrupts the integrity of a human blood-brain barrier model in the absence of infection” is the latest confirmation that the spike protein generated from the COVID vaccine can dislodge the blood-brain barrier (BBB) which can lead to all sorts of temporary and/or permanent neurological injuries including death.

In short, the COVID vaccine is inherently unsafe by design.

Given to perfectly healthy people, it can leave you with permanent and severe neurological damage. Or dead.

This has happened to people who take the COVID shots and now we have further confirmation of the mechanism because the Jmii paper replicates other studies (one as early as 2020) and it also aligns with autopsy findings demonstrating vaccines breach of the BBB.

It’s a violation of medical ethics to give these shots, but it’s legal because they are FDA approved.

The COVID vaccines should be taken off the market. Now.

I considered this then thought to find out what might help mitigate or reverse the vaccine induced harm. So I asked Grok, “You and I previously worked on a nutritional support formula to help a body with DNA/Heart/Mitochondrial support post COVID vaccines. I would like to investigate natural ingredients that help a body restore a properly functioning blood-brain barrier. What data can you provide on that?”

Grok replied:
On restoring a properly functioning blood-brain barrier (BBB), note upfront that there are no established, clinically proven natural supplements or foods that reliably “repair” a BBB breached by spike protein or vaccination in humans. BBB integrity relies on tight junctions (e.g., claudin-5, occludin, ZO-1), endothelial cell health, pericytes, and transporters like MFSD2A. Damage from oxidative stress, inflammation, or toxins can be mitigated protectively in models, but true regeneration data (especially post-spike exposure) is limited to preclinical (animal/cell) studies. No human trials confirm reversal for vaccine-related BBB issues.

That said, here’s a synthesis of available data on natural compounds with evidence for protective, strengthening, or reparative effects on BBB integrity. These often act via antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and signaling pathways (e.g., activating NRF2/WNT/PI3K-AKT while inhibiting NF-?B/MAPK). Focus is on dietary sources or nutraceuticals where animal/in vitro work shows reduced permeability, preserved tight junctions, lower edema, and better endothelial survival.

Key Natural Compounds/Ingredients with Supporting Data
– Curcumin (from turmeric/curry spice): A potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. In a 2026 rat model of cervical spinal cord injury (analogous to neurovascular damage), rats on a diet enriched with DHA + curcumin showed preserved walking ability, reduced cell-membrane damage markers, and restored neural repair/communication markers—outcomes similar to healthy controls. Mechanisms include lowering oxidative stress and supporting membrane repair.

– DHA (docosahexaenoic acid, an omega-3 fatty acid):
Supports BBB integrity and transporter expression. A 2026 study showed DHA + curcumin combos enhanced neurological recovery post-injury via membrane repair and reduced inflammation. Broader research links omega-3s (especially DHA) to maintaining BBB structure, reducing permeability in injury/stroke models, and aiding brain delivery.

– Resveratrol (from red grapes, berries, peanuts):
A polyphenol with multiple BBB-protective actions in reviews. It enhances tight junction stability (e.g., ZO-1, claudins), reduces permeability, mitigates oxidative stress/apoptosis in endothelial cells, and improves cerebrovascular function. Systematic reviews link it to better glymphatic clearance and neuroglial health. Common in dietary sources; protective in various disease models.

– Quercetin (from onions, apples, berries, capers):
Flavonoid with BBB-strengthening potential. It modulates signaling (e.g., src-p-gp-MMP-9) to protect tight junctions, reduces permeability, and aids recovery from cerebral ischemia. Often combined with other agents; shows antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects at the endothelial level.

– NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide, a NAD+ precursor):
Not a traditional “food” but a natural-derived supplement with striking BBB data. In a 2023 mouse study, NMN (100 mg/kg/day in drinking water) prevented age-related BBB leakage, restored connexin 43 and NAD+ levels in brain endothelium, and reduced stroke-induced brain damage (linked to BBB disruption). It activates protective pathways and counters oxidative stress—relevant for age-related or toxin-driven leakage.

Broader Nutritional Approach (Whole-Foods Focus)
A Mediterranean or antioxidant-rich diet (fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, fatty fish) is repeatedly linked in reviews to BBB protection.
Examples include:
– Carotenoids (lutein, beta-carotene, astaxanthin from leafy greens, carrots, tomatoes, berries).
– Anthocyanins (cyanidin, malvidin from berries, red wine, eggplant).
– Polyphenols like catechins (green tea), epicatechin (cocoa), hesperidin (citrus), and fisetin (broccoli).

These often act systemically or via gut-brain axis (a leaky gut can worsen BBB permeability).

Supporting Reviews and Mechanisms
A 2025 open-access review (Kocsis et al., Nutrients) comprehensively covers dozens of plant-derived nutraceuticals (flavonoids, carotenoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, lipids, vitamins). They improve BBB integrity by tightening junctions, boosting efflux transporters (e.g., P-gp), increasing antioxidant defenses, reducing astrocyte swelling/edema, and activating beneficial signaling (WNT, PI3K-AKT, NRF2) while suppressing pro-damage ones (NF-?B, MAPK). Effects seen in vitro (endothelial cell survival) and in vivo (reduced permeability/edema in disease models).

Caveats and practical notes:
– Data is mostly preclinical (mice, rats, cultured cells); human efficacy/safety for BBB repair post-vaccination isn’t established.
– Synergies exist (e.g., DHA + curcumin, or quercetin + resveratrol pairs).
– No strong evidence these reverse spike-induced damage specifically—focus on general protection, reducing ongoing inflammation/oxidative stress.
– Always consult a healthcare provider (especially post-COVID symptoms). Supplements can interact with medications; quality matters (third-party tested).

(Tom: The major point the author does not raise is that I have read people who contracted measles have a lower cancer rate than people who received the vaccine.)

A note to readers: This is a technical document written primarily for a scientific and medical audience. It examines the underlying studies, immunology, epidemiology, and limitations of the available evidence in considerable detail. For readers who do not need that level of detail, this summary contains the central argument and conclusions and may be all that is necessary to read.

Every American now over the age of sixty-nine was almost certainly infected with wild measles as a child. Every American under fifty-eight was born into the era of further-attenuated measles vaccination and has probably never been infected with the wild virus. The boundary between those two populations is currently passing through the seventh decade of life.

The consequence is that measles in the elderly has never been observed in a substantial population whose immunity derives primarily from childhood vaccination, because until now no such elderly population has existed. Before vaccination, the question could not be studied either, since nearly everyone was infected by adolescence. We therefore have almost no direct evidence of what measles susceptibility, disease severity, or mortality will look like when vaccine-derived immunity reaches old age.

There are already reasons to ask what happens as vaccine-derived immunity ages along with the immune systems of the people who carry it. A systematic review and meta-analysis found that, in elimination settings, measles antibody levels decline after vaccination but do not show the same pattern after natural infection. For decades, that decline may have been partly obscured by subclinical boosting when vaccinated people encountered circulating wild virus without developing clinical measles. Elimination largely removed that source of exposure.

Measles itself raises a second question. Infection can erase a substantial portion of the pre-existing antibody repertoire, a phenomenon known as immune amnesia. In the principal study, children lost between 11 and 73 percent of their pre-existing antibody repertoire following infection. That work was conducted in children, whose accumulated immune histories were relatively short and whose capacity to rebuild immune responses was greater than it is in old age. What immune amnesia for other diseases after a measles infection would mean in a seventy- or eighty-year-old with a lifetime of accumulated immunity has not been studied.

There is another major uncertainty. The serological threshold commonly used to define measles protection rests on remarkably limited evidence, beginning with a 1990 study in which only nine people had pre-exposure titers at or below the proposed threshold. A subsequent systematic review found the evidence supporting that threshold to be scant and concluded that it requires further characterization.

There is another major issue. The serological threshold used to define measles immunity is based on nine people studied in 1990, and the field has formally acknowledged that it needs to be recharacterized. None of this predicts a catastrophe. It identifies a gap that becomes measurable around 2033, when the first single-dose cohorts reach sixty-five, and around 2054 for the two-dose cohorts. We do not have to wait that long to begin finding out what happens to vaccine-derived measles immunity as people age. That research is not currently being done.

Public health officials and scientists have assumed that childhood measles vaccination provides protection throughout the human lifespan, even though no fully vaccinated generation has yet reached old age. Once again, an assumption has hardened into an article of faith without the evidence needed to support it.

In one of Professor Francis Boyle’s final interviews before his death he repeatedly called the mRNA COVID shots “Frankenshots” and described them as biological weapons. He argued the technology involved gain-of-function elements and should be treated under bioweapons law.

He also accused Bill Gates of pursuing a depopulation / eugenics agenda through global health and vaccine programs.

Boyle, the international law professor who drafted the U.S. Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989, was a sharp critic of the COVID response until the end.

Boyle died on January 30, 2025, at age 74 in Urbana, Illinois. He had remained outspoken about what he saw as medical tyranny and the legal status of the injections.

Barry Young was the former Health New Zealand database administrator who became one of the country’s most controversial whistleblowers after raising concerns about mortality patterns he discovered in New Zealand’s COVID-19 vaccination data.

Barry worked inside the system and initially had confidence in what public health officials were telling the public. That changed when he began examining the data himself and identified trends in reported deaths that, in his view, raised serious questions requiring immediate analysis.

Believing the public had a right to know, Barry disclosed anonymized government data that was later analyzed by me and others. Days later, he was arrested and charged with accessing a computer system for a dishonest purpose, an offense carrying a potential prison sentence of up to seven years.

Barry has pleaded not guilty and maintains that he acted in the public interest. With his next court date set for October 20, 2026, the outcome of his case could have far-reaching implications for whistleblower protections in New Zealand, and whether those who expose what they believe to be serious government misconduct are protected by the law or prosecuted for speaking out.

I hope you will join us tonight.

They said the paper wasn’t balanced so they retracted it. You can’t declare a paper unfixable if you never told the author what needed fixing. This is not how science is supposed to work.

(Tom: This is how suppression of data that does not fit the narrative builds ignorance of medical risks which prevents accurate personal decision making.)

There’s a hidden truth beneath the story of the chickenpox and shingles vaccines that no vaccine “expert” will ever tell you.

Dr. Suzanne Humphries: “In the old days, we would all get chickenpox.”

It was never a big deal.

Then came the vaccine.

By preventing chickenpox in kids, it created more of a much worse disease.

Dr. Humphries: “Chickenpox, we used to get continuously.”

“It was very rare for adults to get shingles before the chickenpox vaccine came out, extremely rare.”

“But since then, the rate of shingles in adults and children has skyrocketed.”

Why?

Because adults who were exposed to children with chickenpox received a natural immune boost that kept shingles in check.

There’s further evidence that childhood chickenpox prevented other future illnesses, including cancer.

Scientists knew that licensing a chickenpox vaccine carried significant risks of worsening other diseases.

Before it came out, one of the world’s leading varicella experts also noted that chickenpox was long considered too mild to justify a vaccine.

Big Pharma was well aware of all these concerns.

But they marched ahead with the chickenpox vaccine anyway.

As a result, they’ve reduced a disease that was never even a problem, and worsened other, far more serious, illnesses.

These are the kinds of things that you’ll never hear from vaccine “experts,” pharmaceutical companies, or the media.

Which is why we launched Shot Week.

This week, we have gone through and exposed the lies used to justify Big Pharma’s vaccines, from measles shots to mRNA Covid shots.

But the full web of lies that has been spun to justify vaccines is far too much to unravel in a few posts on X.

So we’re promoting one book that breaks down the entire decades-long propaganda and censorship campaign.

This book is a must-read for every new parent.

The World Health Organization now states on its website:

“The COVID-19 vaccination can cause multiple sclerosis due to cross-reactive CD4+-T cells that recognize the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and myelin peptides.”

In other words: your own immune system destroys the nerve pathways and then attacks your brain and spinal cord.

This data was available during the lockdowns, but was labeled as “conspiracy theory” and censored by social media.

(Tom: Every week I see another piece of data that confirms my opinion that every single person should be doing something constructive to remove the spike protein from their body. Dr Peter McCullough has a protocol available at the Wellness Company.

Bernice Eddy, virologist. In 1954, while testing Salk’s polio vaccine, she found her monkeys paralyzed and traced it to specific lots. She warned her superiors, brought photographs, and was dismissed. They released those lots anyway. That was the Cutter incident: tens of thousands of children exposed to live virus straight from the vaccine, hundreds paralyzed, some dead. Rather than being honored, she lost her lab.

She wasn’t done. In 1960, she found the monkey kidney cells used to grow the vaccine were giving hamsters tumors, a cancer-causing virus, later named SV40 (still in Vax today causing LOTS OF brain tumors) riding along in doses already given to tens of millions. She was told to keep quiet. She spoke anyway, was demoted, and lost her lab a second time.

Scientists are still arguing about whether SV40 turns up in human cancers today. And Cutter? No accountability. Its assets grew 80% in the years after the disaster. Bayer absorbed it in 1974, the same Bayer that would later swallow Monsanto and its glyphosate, which brings us to today. She was punished for being right. They were rewarded for being wrong. This is still happening.

Think of the thing you are most terrified of and then being hated for having that fear. When you know more about public health history, you might still choose to get vaccinated, but you might think twice before hating someone for not trusting the people in charge of the science. I knew about this 35/40 yrs ago. One of the MANY reasons I choose not to Vax my children. Pharma is the dark ones special creation to weaken and destroy GODS perfect design. Large part taken from Jon Samson.

Pharma finished recapturing the Food & Drug Administration as the FDA okayed Moderna’s mRNA flu jab, which Moderna’s OWN studies show causes 270 severe side effects to stop ONE flu hospitalization.

Drug industry reform dies in darkness.

Last night, the Food  & Drug Administration quietly approved Moderna’s mRNA flu “vaccine.” Moderna put out its press release at 10:15 p.m. Eastern, presumably in an effort to contain the blowback the FDA will face from MAHA and drug industry skeptics over its decision to roll over and approve this jab. Of course, legacy media outlets were ready with stories; no doubt they were tipped in advance and had pieces waiting.

As I wrote in May, the risk-benefit ratio of the jab is almost absurdly bad, based on Moderna’s own studies — which likely understate it, since drug companies will do everything they can not to connect the side effects they see in clinical trials. To quote that piece (which you can read fully below):

In other words, Moderna’s own data show that about 270 people will suffer severe vaccine side effects from its shot to stop a single flu hospitalization. In what world does that risk ratio make sense?

In a world where Moderna and Blackstone have a direct line to the White House. There was no chance the FDA would say no to this jab once the Trump Administration forced Dr. Vinay Prasad to resign from the agency in March.

The only question is whether Moderna will be able to bribe offer completely legal financial incentives to enough pharmacy benefit managers to get this new jab — which will no doubt cost far more than traditional flu shots — into the system and the arms of unwitting patients.

I’m sure benefits managers will stand up for patients and say no to a more expensive drug with worse side effects even if Moderna kicks back mucho dinero —

I’m sorry, I was laughing too hard to finish that last sentence.

Another great day for American medicine!
