A pandemic where those who are not ill risk passing a deadly virus to those who are vaccinated against it.

It is very difficult to get objective and accurate cv19 information amidst the flood of articles with agendas. In this crisis of political correctness, all other voices are having to defer to the medical voices which do whatever it takes to save every possible life no matter what the cost.
However, the lockdown is probably increasing the total number of deaths through stress, lack of sleep, depression, suicides, ruin and other hard-to-prove causes.
The first studies showing that this lockdown is increasing deaths are starting to emerge. For example, here is an article showing that the lockdown is increasing tuberculosis infections, preventing treatment, and may set back TB eradication programs by up to eight years.

"This situation makes me sick, because (it) is totally avoidable," Lucica Ditiu, executive director of the Stop TB Partnership, said.

Why was the Chinese virus epidemic confined to Hubei province?

In a previous post, I made a case that the Wuhan coronavirus had already spread to most of the world in December 2019 and January 2020. So why did the disease manifest as an epidemic in Wuhan only a month or two later? Or, viewed another way, why did the same epidemic not manifest in most other cities in China as severely as it did in Wuhan?

It no longer makes sense that Wuhan, the main city in Hubei Province, was so hard-hit mainly because of the chronology of the pandemic. We now must assume that, even if this coronavirus originated in Wuhan, it reached the rest of China before the Chinese government started containment in Wuhan - a case of closing the stable door after the horse has bolted.

The media pictures from Wuhan in January and February were awful. Sick people were lying in the streets, curfew breakers and suspected infected people were captured and taken away in vans, families were locked inside their apartment blocks, and there were even images of apartment gates being welded shut. There was a great deal of deprivation and personal suffering. Social restrictions were applied in other cities around China, but not with the draconian hand that applied to Wuhan. The death and severe illness rates in Wuhan seem to have been far higher than in other cities and other parts of China.

One of the most important breakthroughs in American healthcare - ever!

The Trump administration announced on Friday 15 November 2019 that it would begin forcing hospitals to publicly disclose the discounted prices they negotiate with insurance companies. This applies to every procedure, every service, and every drug they charge for.

This is an incredibly important initiative (and hardly reported in the mainstream media.) What it means is that for the first time competition will apply in the American healthcare sector.

Today, American healthcare is a secretive monopoly. You can't shop around because you have no idea what anything will cost, or should cost. America is the most expensive country in the world in which to get seriously sick or injured.

We can rest assured that corrupt members of congress and the entire medical and pharmaceutical industry will fight this initiative with everything that they can. But if Trump can pull this off, it will turn America from a place where a diagnosis of cancer can put a middle class family out of their home, into a place where it is at least financially bearable.

An amazing predictor of heart and coronary artery disease.

A 2019 study of middle-aged men found that the more pushups they could do in one go, the lower their risk of cardiovascular disease over the following ten years.

The study's results were really significant. Those men who completed more than 40 pushups in one go at the start of the study had a 96% reduction in cardiovascular events such as coronary artery disease, heart failure and sudden cardiac death over the next 10 years, compared to those who could do fewer than 10 pushups.

The more pushups you can do, the lower your risk of cardiovascular disease.

Gluten intolerance and coeliac disease - the real cause?

If you have celiac disease or a severe intolerance to gluten, it is possible that the cause is a chemical heavily used in processed foods. According to research published in December 2018, microbial transglutaminase is a bacterial enzyme often added to all kinds of processed foods, including dairy products, meat products and baked goods. It improves the food's texture, palatability and shelf-life.

Unfortunately it is not required to be labelled as an ingredient, so it is hidden from the public knowledge.

Several research papers have shown that this food additive could be the cause of celiac disease and severe gluten intolerance.

Are you taking green tea supplements?
Throughout Grow Youthful I recommend that people generally do not take supplements. Supplements are only justified in rare cases where the body has a specific deficiency and consuming foods that are rich in the missing nutrient is still not enough to make up the deficiency. Green tea is yet another example of this rule in action.

Is your sense of taste or smell not as good as it used to be?

Well, it is actually a sign of ageing. It is also an early indication of dementia. There are also a couple of other causes, some of them which are remarkably simple. For example, are you using a sensitive relief toothpaste for sensitive teeth?
