We might have another problem. A whole buncha people, Elon Musk included, are launching thousands of satellites designed to fall into atmosphere at end of life (decade or less) and burn up, not to speak of rocket exhaust… except the products of that burning are all kindsa metal and other oxides whose chemical effects on […]

How You Photosynthesize (And Why a Vitamin D Supplement Is Not the Same)
by Daniel Brouse Did you know you photosynthesize? Most of the vitamin D in your body is created by exposure to sunlight. “During exposure to sunlight, the high-energy UV photons (290-315 nm) penetrate the epidermis and photolyze 7-dehydrocholesterol (provitamin D3) to previtamin D3. Once formed, previtamin D3 undergoes a thermally induced isomerization to vitamin D3 […]
Good Gut Bacteria and Food Allergies
The rise in food allergies has nothing to do with GMOs. The increase number of people with fool allergies is mostly to do with good gut bacteria. Many children are not getting introduced to the bacteria needed to establish good gut bacteria. Many adults good gut bacteria is getting destroyed by diseases, such as, COVID. […]

UN Climate Report: It’s Now or Never
A new flagship UN report on climate change indicating that harmful carbon emissions from 2010-2019 have never been higher in human history, is proof that the world is on a “fast track” to disaster, António Guterres has warned, with scientists arguing that it’s ‘now or never’ to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. Reacting to […]

99% of Population Breathes Air Pollution
7 Million people die from air pollution related illness every year. “After surviving a pandemic, it is unacceptable to still have 7 million preventable deaths and countless preventable lost years of good health due to air pollution,” said Dr. Maria Neira, head of WHO’s department of environment, climate change and health. “Yet too many investments […]

Gut Microbiota (Good Gut Bacteria) and COVID-19
by Daniel Brouse Good gut bacteria are the microorganisms (bacteria and archaea) that live in the digestive tract. The gut microbiota produces fermentation of non-digestible substrates like dietary fibres and endogenous intestinal mucus. “Approximately 100 trillion micro-organisms (most of them bacteria, but also viruses, fungi, and protozoa) exist in the human gastrointestinal tract — the […]

COVID, Long-COVID, and Blood Clots
by Daniel Brouse Originally, COVID-19 was thought to be a respiratory infection. It didn’t take long to discover that SARS-CoV-2 quickly enters the heart, blood stream, and can infect every organ. Now we know that SARS-CoV-2 causes micro bloodclots that do not necessarily clear the system. Resta Pretorius, a South African scientist, says, “When we […]
