I'm a neuroscientist with a special focus on nutrition, metabolism and mitochondria. Always happy to chat about brain aging (or any kind of aging), great books to read, travel, food and writing. https://sciprofiles.com/user/publications/865800

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders.

Aluminum is an ADJUVANT.

It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine.

That’s it.

Unraveling the sweet connection between pancreatic cancer and hyperglycemia Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PaC) is one of the deadliest cancers, primarily due to late-stage diagnosis and limited treatment options. A bidirectional relationship exists between PaC and diabetes mellitus (DM), where glucose abnormalities both cause and result from PaC. In this review, we examine the complex pathophysiology of PaC-induced hyperglycemia, focusing on impaired insulin sensitivity, Ξ² cell dysfunction, chronic inflammation, and alterations in the gut microbiome and circadian rhythm. We discuss how PaC induces insulin resistance through disrupted signaling and proinflammatory factors, as well as Ξ² cell dysfunction through oxidative stress and adrenomedullin-mediated insulin secretion inhibition. In addition, emerging research highlights the role of the gut microbiome in PaC and hyperglycemia. Comprehensive understanding of these mechanisms is critical for early detection and improved treatment strategies for PaC.

thanks for the recommendation! I can give a quick review: sometimes you don't realise when you've stumbled into the machinations of Faerie, but you'll have to fight for your life to save the one you love from them (if you can remember them at all)
