    My understanding is that the debate regarding GMOs is less to do with its effect on one’s health and more to do with the effect on the environment (e.g., the pesticide Roundup). In other words, corn that has been genetically modified to tolerate Roundup allows growers to spray large anounts of it on fields, thus increasing environmental pollution. Could someone comment on this?

This particular psychosis is even worse with people who like to use infrared boxes (often mistakenly called saunas, which they are not) for their supposed healing benefits of infrared radiation, but then mix in a bit of EMF mumbojumbo and you got yourself an all-american white suburban mom.

    Her claims about probiotics are way out of date – in part because “probiotics” covers a huge range of bacterial species and strains. Yes, some are sold just because the bacteria in them are easy to grow. But others contain bacteria that have a large amount of research detailing their benefits and the mechanisms of their benefits. Like l. reuteri, some strains of which produce reuterin, and have been proven to kill off bad bacteria like c. difficile. One paper found that the tested strain of l. reuteri was as effective as antibiotic treatment with vacomycin for eliminating c. difficile. Or a yeast, S. boulardii, which has a lot of evidence for doing similar control of bad gut bacteria and benefiting people with diseases like IBS. And yes, these have been demonstrated to survive the acid and bile salts in the upper gastrointestinal tract and get to the large intestine alive. Dr. Love is many years behind in her reading if she thinks that no probiotics are supported by high quality research – many are. Search the NIH, NHS, Nature and other reputable websites for scientific papers about this research.

    Raw milk is easier to digest for those of us who are sensitive because when you pasteurize the milk you also denature the enzymes that were beneficial for digestion. That being said I wouldn’t drink raw milk for the reasons stated in this video. I do use it to make cheese because it has better texture and flavor and safe after 60 days of aging. Store bought milk is terrible for making cheese because oh the homogenization.

    January 11, 2025 at 8:01 pm

    2 points I think need further answers… but first, I do appreciate videos like this to combat misinformation.

    1) I noticed you often say, “The amount of exposure is negligible,” when debunking toxic exposure time/levels. This may be true in isolation (one-off incidences) AND these exposure levels may be ‘lower’ (safe enough) for federal guidelines, but I think there’s a bigger point to be made. It’s an accumulation of exposure to hundreds or perhaps, thousands of chemicals over one’s lifetime that makes these ‘isolated exposure amounts’ too great over time.
    How many chemicals have yet to be identified as carcinogenic? So, is there a ‘safe’ level of exposure to any known carcinogenic? I don’t know. But my point of seeing the bigger picture – of viewing exposure over a lifetime – is worth mentioning.

    2) If cancer cells use up (feed) off glucose more so than normal cells, wouldn’t the growth rate be slowed if glucose intake was reduced? Meaning… if the brain and healthy cells compete with cancer cells for what little glucose remains, it makes sense tumor growth would be slowed. Not negated, or cured, but slowed… ?

    I’m no expert, nor do I play one on TV… just asking common sense questions, which very well may prove wrong.

      Just a quick correction, mRNA vaccines do not modify your cell’s RNA. They ARE the RNA which the cell can then use to make a protein. mRNA technology is a lot simpler and cleaner than older methods. It also allows for a very high degree of antigen specificity.

    Andrea Love says there is “no data” to support the use of nutritional supplements and probiotics, which is just not true. The NatMedPro website used by pharmacists and integrative medicine-minded healthcare practitioners provides access to the scientific studies. To be honest, Andrea Love probably received little to no education or training in nutrition, so she has an enormous blind spot.

    Not promoting raw milk but I’m sorry Dr. Love please look into beta lactoglobulin, it’s role in active hydrophobic vitamin transport (A, D) in the intestines, and the differences between flash pasteurization and a longer (30 minutes) lower temp pasteurization. The benefits of beta lactoglobulin are clinically published and flash pasteurization tends to denature and destroy one of the active vitamin binding sites.

    So yes, pasteurize your milk for safety purposes but no, pasteurization is not without its downsides. Broad sweeping claims like “it has no effect” are factually incorrect.

    – we published a set of papers on this 15 years ago and influenced local dairy industry practices

Thirdly, I am a diagnosed autist and I’ve received so many comments that „everyone gets diagnosed these days” but after being interviewed me and my family are basically sure my dad and grandmother at least were autistic as well (but they were basially literally beaten into acting normally).

    DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR ON A YOUTUBE VIDEO BECAUSE: Social and ethical critics have characterized biomedical research as being out of touch with real health needs and community values and as being an agent of social control that entrenches the power of a technocratic hegemony. The profession has largely acquiesced in bureaucratic and corporate intervention in exchange for continued funding, and assumed that social concerns could be allayed by ‘top down’ paternalistic education of the public. However, this response tends to add weight to the criticism that biomedicine is an agent of social control.

I am type 2 so with so many videos I started tracking all the various claims and causes of type 2, I have complied out of these videos 19 different causes of type 2 diabetes and none stated excessive sugars as a cause. Almost all indicated a way to eat whatever you want and all said they had a magic pill/drink/elixir that would allow you to eat whatever. How is this pseudoscience even allowed as it all seems to be absolute BS is unbelievable. Almost all the reviews wax poetic about the goodness of their claims and magic pills (one actually referred to their pill as magical). This type of advertising has got to stop.

    Not completely true on sweating. It can and does unplug pores and clear toxic build up on the skin. When a really unhealthy person goes into sweat lodge the first few times the smell is intense as those pores open up and the sweat flows. If they get to a regular pattern of monthly or so, the sweat no longer smells as bad and flows much easier allowing the body to become better at regulation of temperature. But no it will not clear the things the kidneys and liver clear. Sauna or sweat lodge are very good for social interacting and relaxing as stress relief so they have many good factors to overall health.

    The issue with Teflon skillets and such is when they are severely over heated. You look at a new one and see a “good” coating but put that on a burner and keep abusing it on high heat and it loses it’s shiny look. It gets chalky looking and degrades fast losing all of it’s benefit for non stick and getting dusty and flaky. I never use at high heat unless it is full to the rim with some liquid and turn it down quickly as the liquid heats. Even that is rare. But scrambling a couple of eggs in a large pan (not enough volume to absorb the heat) on a range at high heat is not a good thing. It can ruin the pan if nothing else. Then again I buy top quality cookware not the paper thin cheap ones at low end discount stores. I take care of a sixty dollar skillet.

    I love science and find it all so fascinating. But I’m also a believer in the placebo effect. I’ve had cancer and radiation treatment in the past and a firm believer in modern medicine when needed. I’m also a believer in some … new age ideology relating to stars and what not. Also love my sauna and acupuncture. Can’t forget my daily probiotic. As long as you do something mild that you truly believe is helping you, do it and embrace it. The placebo effect is real. Just don’t let your mild things turn into dangerous bodily harm because misinformation online is telling you outright lies or minuscule truths. Moderation is key to everything. Stay active – even if it’s just daily walking – and listen to your body. It will tell you every single thing you need to know

    6:16 Grammatically and mathematically speaking, “100,000 times more weakly” is impossible. When comparing any two things, and using the greater one as the baseline for the comparison, any value of X that is greater than 1 is impossible. Because X equals the greater of the two, not the lesser of the two. So, what you meant to say is that ethylparaben and methylparaben bind at 1/100,000th the strength of estradiol. Or you meant to say that estradiol binds at 100,000 times the strength of ethylparaben and methylparaben.

    There are many studies with conflicting results on the use of probiotics to prevent or treat Clostridium difficile infections in people taking antibiotics. I’d say the jury’s still out. The Mayo Clinic puts it this way: “The role of these products in C. difficile infection is not clear. Not all the research has shown that probiotics are helpful in preventing or treating infection with C. difficile. Researchers are studying advanced probiotics for treatment or prevention of C. difficile infection. These products aren’t offered outside of research studies.”

    As a chemist and ecology enthusiast I find a lot of your answers bad faithed. You don’t mention that a lot of substances’ harmfulness at low doses isn’t proven because they just have not been studied at all.
    13:12 It’s true that the supplements industry is much bs but a lot of nutrients such as oligoelements can be absorbed using dietary supplements.
    15:45 The problem about BPA is the disposal of coated items causing water hormonal pollution.
    18:25 Scratching or overheating a Teflon-coated pan is proven to decompose the coating into carcinogenic perfluorooctanic acid. Also disposal problem just as before.
    25:46 And what about the 1% increase each year ? I feel it’s concerning and worth being talked about even though the initial statement was off.
    33:13 High-fructose corn syrup is proven to be linked to diabetes and is strictly regulated in Europe for that reason.

    I’m going to respectfully disagree when it comes to the disbelief on rising cancers. I can speak personally on two cancers that are on the rise in younger adults. First being Colon and second being Prostate. Both cancers for decades were seen primarily in mid-life/senior age groups. There are several ongoing studies ( since 2015) because there was a large and sudden increase of younger adults. One age group for stage 3/4A prostate cancer is aged 38-52. These men are far too young. This is a cancer that was historically 70 and above.

    15:30 according to dr Mindy Pelz, she’s an advocate for fasting for starving cancer cells. She tells that if we don’t consume sugar or any food for that matter the cancer cells don’t have anything to feed off of. So maybe not only the sugar but fasting for some while, administering minerals and vitamins along with it for 12-24-72 hrs fast frequently does show change in cancer progression. You can see so many people talking about their experience in the comments section of her video. Idk if that’s something to do with placebo

    really wish “experts” were required to actually provide references for their claims rather than just stating things and flashing the word science on screen. This is not how experts are required to present their opinions, whether professionally or in court, it is the opposite of public education, at least if someone believes something because they read a study that is not supported by other studies, they are engaging with how science actually works. These videos encourage people to have blind faith in conclusions expressed by people without any justification or citation because they claim to be qualified. Even chat gpt does better than that…
