A woman lived to 117 without cancer, cardiovascular disease, or neurodegenerative disease. What does her biology look like? Her telomeres were exceptionally short, and her blood and immune cells showed clear signs of aging. Yet her epigenetic age was approximately 23 years younger than her chronological age. She also had very low inflammation, protective genetic variants, and a diverse gut microbiome. She followed a Mediterranean diet, ate plenty of yogurt, walked, gardened, read, played piano, slept well, and remained socially active too. We can’t derive a longevity formula from one exceptional person, but I think her biology offers a fascinating glimpse of how aging and disease may become uncoupled.

A major study involving more than 470,000 participants has found that using sunscreen massively increases the risk of three major types of skin cancer. According to the UK Biobank study, frequent sunscreen users faced a 292% higher risk of invasive melanoma, a 140% higher risk of basal cell carcinoma, and a 126% higher risk of squamous cell carcinoma. thepeoplesvoice.tv/sunscreen…

The authors of the UK Biobank study explicitly state that sunscreen does not cause cancer. Instead, this correlation is due to the "sunscreen paradox": people who use sunscreen tend to spend more time in the sun, creating a false sense of security. mcgill.ca/newsroom/chann… pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10…

The 80/20 Rule states that you get 80 percent of the value out of something from 20 percent of the information or effort. (It's also true that you're likely to exert 80 percent of your effort getting the final 20 percent of value.) Understanding this rule saves you from getting bogged down in unnecessary detail once you've gotten most of the learning you need to make a good decision. #principleoftheday

C’en est fini de la liberté d’expression au Canada. Les libéraux font passer en force les projets de loi suivants : - C-9 (loi contre la haine) - C-22 (accès légal/surveillance) - C-34 (sécurité numérique) Trois projets de loi qui, ensemble, anéantiront nos droits fondamentaux. - C-9 (Loi contre la haine) : Élargit considérablement la définition de la haine (haine/diffamation), supprime les défenses religieuses établies de longue date pour l’expression de bonne foi et facilite les poursuites criminelles sans le consentement du procureur général. Critiquer, prêcher ou même afficher certains symboles pourrait désormais vous valoir des accusations criminelles. Finies les protections pour la liberté d’expression religieuse et les débats publics sensibles. - C-22 (accès légal) : Oblige les fournisseurs d’accès Internet à conserver les métadonnées pendant un an, facilite l’accès à vos données par la police et le SCRS et permet au ministre d’imposer des droits d’accès (des portes dérobées déguisées). Surveillance de masse de vos communications numériques sans mandat. Votre vie en ligne devient totalement transparente pour l'État. - Projet de loi C-34 (Loi sur la sécurité numérique) : Ce projet de loi crée une puissante Commission gouvernementale de la sécurité numérique qui dictera aux plateformes, aux chatbots et aux services en ligne ce qu'ils doivent censurer, comment vérifier l'âge des utilisateurs et comment se protéger contre les contenus préjudiciables. Contrôle d'âge obligatoire, plans de sécurité imposés, amendes colossales et pouvoir discrétionnaire étendu pour décider de ce qui est acceptable. Une censure centralisée au nom de la protection des enfants. Ensemble, ces trois projets de loi transforment le Canada en un État de surveillance et de censure généralisée. Vous ne pourrez plus parler, partager ni même penser librement sans risquer d'être signalé, surveillé ou poursuivi. Les voix dissidentes, les critiques de l'immigration, les débats religieux, les opinions controversées, tout devient risqué. Roman Baber l'explique parfaitement dans cette vidéo de 9 min 36 s. Regardez-la avant qu'il ne soit trop tard. Ce n'est plus de la gouvernance. C'est la mort de la liberté d'expression telle que nous la connaissions au Canada. Les libéraux ont choisi de bafouer totalement les droits des citoyens. Réveillez-vous ! Partagez ce message. Résistez ! Le temps presse.

This is a far more accurate account of the confiscation program than what the gov't has fed to Canadians. No joke.

Ukraine is not in recession. Canada is. Read that again. Ukraine is fighting missiles, blackouts, energy strikes, transport disruption, and a full-scale war. Canada is fighting Trudeau, Freeland, Carney, and the Liberal Party. Ukraine took a war-hit Q1 and is still forecast to grow in 2026. Canada had GDP drop in Q4, flatline in Q1, and business investment fall for 5 straight quarters. No missiles. No bombed-out power grid. No front line. Just Liberal economics doing what Liberal economics does. Ukraine has war. Canada has Liberals. That is the embarrassment.

I'm obviously a big fan of supplements. But if I had to narrow down my list to just 5 that I think most people should be taking, they'd be: - Omega-3s - Magnesium - Vitamin D - Creatine - A high-quality multivitamin
5 supplements that give you big bang for your buck: • Omega-3 — a high omega-3 index is linked to 5 extra years of life expectancy, 66% lower Alzheimer’s risk, and slower epigenetic aging • Vitamin D — regulates over 5% of your genome, including genes for viral defense, neurotransmitter synthesis, and longevity; correcting deficiency can reverse epigenetic age by ~2 years • Multivitamin — daily use in older adults was linked to 2.1 years less global brain aging, nearly 5 years less episodic memory aging, and modestly slower epigenetic aging • Magnesium — supports 300+ enzymes involved in DNA repair and sleep, and low intake has been linked to higher cancer risk • Creatine monohydrate — one of the most studied supplements for strength and performance, with 10 grams as a baseline for brain benefits

The income and wealth gap in the US are the highest they’ve been in almost 100 years. It’s something that need to be addressed before it creates even more extreme internal conflicts. However, I worry about the practical impacts of wealth taxes on the economic system. And that’s because there’s a difference between wealth and money. It’s all about the mechanics. Bubbles burst when there’s a need for money to generate cash flow. Wealth taxes would create a situation where people who are wealthy on paper need to sell assets to cover their liabilities. And that can quickly create a dynamic that leads to a broader issue. It’s something to watch in the coming years.

When I say that the monetary order is breaking down, I mean that fiat currencies and debt as a storehold of wealth are not being held by central banks in the same way they were in the recent past. That reality is largely being driven by the same forces that drive The Big Cycle. Today, we know that both the holders of US dollar denominated debt (other countries) and those who need it (the US) are worried about each other for geopolitical reasons. That becomes a big problem when you’re producing a lot of debt — which the US continues to do.

Bringing your own ceramic or stainless steel mug to a coffee shop (instead of using their to-go cups) is one of the easiest ways to limit unnecessary exposure to microplastics. It's a no-cost health change you can make starting today.
Stop drinking hot coffee and tea from plastic-lined to-go cups Doing so is a major source of exposure to microplastics and their associated chemicals Most paper coffee cups are coated with plastic, and when heat hits that lining, it releases a surge of BPA (an endocrine‑disrupting chemical) directly into your drink Just the act of adding hot liquid can multiply BPA release by up to 55x Use your own stainless steel or ceramic mug; it’s one of the simplest ways to protect yourself

One of the most common things I'm asked about is sleep supplements. Here's my list (and why I take them): • Melatonin - 3 mg or less 1-3 hours before bed. Best reserved for travel/jet lag or when you *really* need sleep. • Magnesium glycinate - calms the nervous system especially when stressed (which depletes magnesium). I take 120 mg before bed but some research uses 200-400 mg. • L-theanine - non-sedating amino acid that helps to calm the brain. A dose of 200-400 mg can improve sleep latency and sleep quality, especially if you're dealing with anxiety/insomnia. • Glycine - when taken about 30-60 minutes before bed, it may improve subjective sleep quality due to its nervous system effects. • Myo-inositol - not strongly evidenced as a sleep aid but I've found it helps me calm the "mental chatter" before bed.
5 supplements that might improve your sleep: 1. Melatonin 2. Magnesium 3. L-theanine 4. Glycine 5. Myo-inositol

So talking to adults at work about sex is sexual harassment — but talking about sex to children at school is necessary. Liberal logic is misinformation.
