Brutal breakfast reality check – Oatmeal or Omelette?
Dr. Mark Hyman shares a Harvard study that will make you rethink breakfast:
Overweight teens ate the exact same calories in three different meals — oatmeal, steel-cut oats, or omelette.
Result?
Oatmeal group: sky-high insulin, cortisol & adrenaline (like being chased by a tiger) ate 81% more food later.
Steel-cut oats: still 50% more than an omelette.
Omelette group stayed satisfied longest.
Moral: Start your day with protein + fat — not starch or sugar (no muffins, bagels, oatmeal, pancakes…).
Who’s switching to eggs/bacon/avocado tomorrow?
Millions of your mother’s cells persist inside you, and now we know how
Every human born on this planet is not entirely themselves.
A tiny fraction of our cells – around one in a million – is actually not our own, but comes from our mothers. That means each of us has millions of cells that our immune systems would normally recognize as foreign; yet somehow, in most of us, they hang around peacefully without causing any immune problems.
Now, immunologists have figured out why. A small number of maternal immune cells that cross the placenta during pregnancy actively train the fetus’s immune system to tolerate the mother’s cells for their entire life.
The exchange of cells between a mother and a fetus is a well-documented phenomenon that scientists have known about for more than 50 years. It’s called microchimerism, and it goes both ways: every human who has ever been pregnant retains cells from their fetus, and every human retains cells from their mother.
These lingering cells pose a puzzle for immunology, which is built around the idea that the immune system should mount an attack against foreign cells.
A team led by pediatric infectious disease specialist Sing Sing Way of Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center wanted to understand more about how these foreign maternal cells keep the immune system in check, and what role they play in shaping the fetus’ immune system.
To find out, the researchers studied maternal microchimerism in mice. Building on their previous studies, the researchers bred mice with immune cells engineered to express specific cell surface markers. This allowed researchers to selectively deplete those cells and see whether or not immune tolerance was maintained.
Here’s where it got fascinating. A small subset of the maternal immune cells, with properties similar to bone marrow myeloid cells and dendritic cells, persisted long after birth. They were also strongly associated with both immune activity and the expansion of regulatory T cells – the cells that tell the immune system that everything is copacetic.
To confirm, the researchers next selectively edited out those specific maternal cells in offspring mice.
The results were dramatic. The regulatory T cells disappeared, and the immune tolerance of maternal cells disappeared.
The implication is that lifelong tolerance to maternal microchimeric cells is probably dependent on just a tiny subset of maternal cells. Take those away, and immune chaos likely ensues. That also means that immune tolerance needs to be continuously and actively maintained; it’s not a one-and-done process during pregnancy.
That’s interesting and exciting in its own right, but the research also offers a way to gain a greater understanding of the broad swath of diseases and conditions to which microchimerism may contribute.
“The new tools we developed to study these cells will help scientists pinpoint exactly what these cells do and how they work in a variety of contexts including autoimmune disease, cancer and neurological disorders,” Way says.
“Microchimerism is increasingly linked with so many health disorders. This study provides an adaptable platform for scientists to investigate whether these rare cells are the cause of disease, or alternatively, found in diseased tissue at increased levels as part of the natural healing process.”
The research has been published in Immunity.

Biopsies Spread Cancer
Doctors are finally admitting that biopsies Spread Cancer…
“Biopsies are the kiss of death. The needle punches a hole in the tumor, dragging cancer cells & spreading them.”
-– **Dr. Ben Johnson**
“Biopsies introduce cancer cells into the bloodstream.”
-– **Dr. Leonard Gomella**
The body brilliantly self-contains tumors in a protective fibrin sheath, like a hornet’s nest sealed shut.
But a needle biopsy? It shatters that barrier, unleashing cells, toxins & even parasites into the bloodstream & lymph.
What was contained becomes chaos: inflammation surges, immune response distracts & metastasis explodes.
Think of it: Poke the nest, and the hornets scatter everywhere. Cells hitch a ride along the needle tract, seeding new tumors. Local trauma kickstarts growth. The immune system, overwhelmed, lets invaders run wild.
**The Science Proves It – Biopsies Trigger Spread, Inflammation & Seeding:**
– “Biopsy of primary tumors resulted in significantly increased incidence & number of lung metastasis.” (PMID: 25061543)
– “Biopsies promote intraperitoneal tumor dissemination & progression.” (PMID: 23258276)
– “Core needle biopsy of breast tumors increases distant metastases.” (PMID: 25425969)
– “Biopsies lead to tumor cell dissemination & seeding of malignant tumors.” (PMID: 22686607)
– “Human breast cancer biopsies enhance adjacent cancer cell proliferation.” (PMID: 27249999)
**Top Doctors & Experts Sound the Alarm – “Standard Care” Is Harming Patients:**
– “Manipulation of an intact tumor… is associated with an increase in the incidence of sentinel node metastasis.”
– **John Wayne Cancer Institute (2022)**
– “Cutting out a section… endangered the person’s life by aggravating the malignant growth.”
– **Dr. Perry Nichols**
– “Biopsies spread early cancers.”
– **Dr. Jonathan Wright**
– “Biopsies introduce cancer cells into the bloodstream.”
– **Dr. Leonard Gomella**
– “Biopsies cause cancer cells to spread & the risk is higher in certain types of cancers like prostate & kidney cancers.”
– **Dr. Hal Schofield**
– “Biopsies cause cancer to disseminate further into the body & this has serious implications to patient outcomes.”
– **Dr. Robert Nagourney**
These aren’t fringe opinions – they’re from leading voices in oncology. Yet patients walk in blind, without full informed consent on these risks.
**Safer Alternatives: Diagnose WITHOUT Disturbing the Tumor’s Encapsulation**
Skip the needle. Opt for non-invasive tools that map, detect & monitor without the danger:
1. Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI): High-res imaging of structure & function. Zero radiation, fully non-invasive.
2. Color Doppler Ultrasound: Real-time blood flow mapping in tumors. No radiation, no tissue damage.
3. Liquid Biopsy (ctDNA/CTC Testing): Simple blood draw detects cancer DNA/cells circulating. No poking required.
4. Thermography: Infrared heat detection spots abnormal patterns early. Painless, radiation-free.
Information crushes fear. It empowers choices. If diagnosed, PAUSE. Research deeply. Question everything. Your intuition knows – rushing is the real risk.
The “cancer industrial complex” thrives on fear & procedures, but it’s overdue for a reckoning. Some “tumors” are actually parasitic egg sacs misdiagnosed as cancer. You CAN shrink & eliminate them holistically.

Failure? A Destination or a Progress Marker?
The dictionary has multiple definitions of failure:
- 1. lack of success.
- 2. an unsuccessful person or thing.
- 3. the neglect or omission of expected or required action.
- 4. a lack or deficiency of a desirable quality.
- 5. the action or state of not functioning.
- 6. a sudden cessation of power.
- 7. the collapse of a business.
The definitions all deliver the impression of a finite conclusion rather than a step in a process. Failure equals being wrong. Being wrong equals death. As a result, failure has an obvious and deeply negative stigma associated with it. Hence most people fear failing.
In fact many people do not even attempt worthwhile projects for fear of failure. This has been commented upon by various motivational speakers as sad and lamentable but is a natural outcome of the way we are taught to think about failure – it is bad and to be avoided.
And it is a lot easier and very simple to say don’t fear failure than it is to spend the time necessary to change our thinking about it. So what is a better way to think of failure and how do we change our thinking about it?
I don’t know how true it is but I have heard that Edison failed 10,000 times to invent the light bulb before his success. Imagine if he took his first failure as an end point rather than a new starting point. In fact each failure could otherwise be described as a successful experiment to find out that a particular hypothesis did not work.
I was struck by this when I was doing some pullups in the park with 13 kg of weights on my back. I was doing my third set of 5 repetitions and on the last repetition I could not pull myself up more than 85% of my top range of motion. That was my point of failure. Despite my best effort, I could not pull my body up to get my nose over the bar. I “failed“.
Now, when you are exercising, this is something to aim for. Exercising with good form till you are close to failure (with some capacity left in reserve) builds strength and muscle mass.
At this point I realised every person doing resistance training “fails”. We all hit a point where we are at or close to where we can do no more. We are all “failures”, at different points. Some of us fail after 4 repetitions at 13 kg, as did I. Some of fail after 44 repetitions or with 50 kg. None of us stop training “because we failed”. We recognise it as a benchmark or a measure of progress rather than a destination. A “That’s where I am up to.” viewpoint rather than a “That is my end result.” viewpoint.
In many situations, such as in exercise, it is not about failure versus success, it is about WHEN you fail.
Some fail before they start, thinking it is too much effort.
Some fail at the first day that is either too hot or too cold for comfort.
Some fail when their results do not match their expectation.
A rare few fail after they win their marathon, receive their trophy, party on and go to bed at 2:00 am.
It’s all about WHEN you fail! This is why persistence is vital for success. The ultra persistent refuse to fail ’till after the victory party.
Which reminded me of a quote I heard about people who are successful marketers, “They fail fast and they fail often.” They try a lot of things, knowing that many ideas they try will fail and need to be abandoned quickly before wasting too much money on them. By doing that many times and quickly, they sooner or later and without too much wasted money, find that which works and can then do lots of that to huge success.
These top marketers know full well that a fear of failure will not lead to success.
They know that in marketing, as in exercising, it is very easy and natural to view failure as a marker, a peg in the board. A “This is where I am up to”. It is not the end of the road, it is the current position of my progress marker.
What if we started doing that in other spheres of activity? What if every time we thought of something and got the negative thought come in about failing, we just looked at it and thought, “That’s only to be expected. Nothing unusual here. Any time I fail it is merely the current position of my progress marker, just another step toward the ultimate success.”
This I wish for you!
