I cannot fault the Dalai Lama on this one, my experience matches his to a T.
Bill Gates Resume
Before you get your medical advice from this man, remember, he makes a lot of money if we all swallow his marketing hype and accept his jab and none if we don’t. So he has a huge vested interest in getting us to believe his story. Just like he did with Windows.
Vitamin C levels in patients with SARS-CoV-2-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome
(Tom: When the COVID drama first raised its ugly head, from my medical sources I passed on the desirability of increasing your Vitamin C, D, E and zinc to protect yourself. Here is some serious validation of that advice.)
To our knowledge, this is the first study to analyze the levels of vitamin C in patients with SARS-CoV-2-associated ARDS. Our study revealed that vitamin C levels are undetectable in more than 90% of the patients included. The mechanisms of this significant reduction in vitamin C are uncertain. We hypothesized that several mechanisms, such as increased metabolic consumption due to the enhanced inflammatory response, glomerular hyperfiltration, dialysis, decreased gastrointestinal absorption, or decreased recycling of dehydroascorbate to ascorbic acid, may be involved.
Moreover, vitamin C may have implications for treatment of COVID-19-associated ARDS [3]. Indeed, one preclinical study showed that vitamin C increased resistance to infection caused by coronavirus [4]. Moreover, other clinical studies that included surgical patients and patients with pneumonia showed encouraging results in terms of decreased incidence and severity of lung injury and mortality [5].

Oranges
Oranges are unknown in the wild. They are a hybrid of tangerines and the pomelo or “Chinese grapefruit” (which is pale green or yellow), and were first cultivated in south-east Asia. They weren’t orange, but green, and Vietnamese oranges and Thai tangerines are still bright green on the outside and orange inside. (Info via QI – BBC)

Diet Quality, Food Groups and Nutrients Associated with the Gut Microbiota in a Nonwestern Population
Dr Peter Dingle writes:
This study confirms everything I have been telling you for years about creating a healthy microbiome. It all comes down to your diet. Diet plays an important role in shaping gut microbiota. Eat more plants and eat less processed foods and add fibre.
Microbial diversity was higher in individuals with increased intake of nutrients obtained from plant-food sources, whereas the intake of food groups and nutrients correlated with microbiota structure. Random-forest regressions identified microbial communities associated with different diet components.
Two remarkable results confirmed previous expectations regarding the link between diet and microbiota: communities composed of short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) producers were more prevalent in the microbiota of individuals consuming diets rich in fiber and plant-food sources, such as fruits, vegetables and beans. In contrast, an inflammatory microbiota composed of bile-tolerant and putrefactive microorganisms along with opportunistic pathogens thrived in individuals consuming diets enriched in animal-food sources and of low quality, i.e., enriched in ultraprocessed foods and depleted in dietary fiber. This study expands our understanding of the relationship between dietary intake and gut microbiota. We provide evidence that diet is strongly associated with the gut microbial community and highlight generalizable connections between them.

Diabetes drug metformin recalled due to high levels of cancer-causing agent
The drug’s manufacturer, Marksans Pharma Limited, has expanded a recall initially announced in June to now include an additional 76 unexpired lots of the medication.
The recalled drugs are marketed as “extended-release tablets” under the brand name Time-Cap Labs, Inc.
The recalled product contained an unacceptably high level of N-Nitrosodimethylamine, which is considered a probable human carcinogen.

Penicillin And Peanut Butter Prove The Point
Time To Make An Apple and Rhubarb Pie!
Study shows rhubarb supplement prevents obesity and promotes the good bacteria Akkermansia muciniphila (the same one that increases with metformin)
Rhubarb supplementation fully prevented HFHS-induced obesity, diabetes, visceral adiposity, adipose tissue inflammation and liver triglyceride accumulation, without any modification in food intake. By combining sequencing and qPCR methods, we found that all these effects were associated with a blooming of Akkermansia muciniphila, which is strongly correlated with increased expression of Reg3y in the colon.
This data showed that rhubarb supplementation is sufficient to protect against metabolic disorders induced by a diet rich in lipid and carbohydrates in association with an increase in Akkermansia muciniphila.
