🌱My most viewed reel of 2025 and of all time! Over 5 million views and 200 thousand shares.

🌱But you know what’s interesting— it made me do more research on causes of lung cancer in non smokers and I discovered a common cause that affects males and females to an even greater extent.

Sharing that video in my stories today but if you don’t catch it comment the word STORIES and I’ll send you the video on that.

🌱Some insurance companies under estimate the importance of vitamin D and many won’t cover costs to check levels.

I hope that changes soon because vitamin D is a powerful immune regulator and low levels are seen in many patients with cancer.

🌱Studies show that triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients have the lowest vitamin D concentration among all breast cancer types suggesting that vitamin D may play a protective role in cancer prevention.

🌱The active metabolite of vitamin D, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D), can be attributed to its potential to manage cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis( cell death), and inflammation which all play a role in cancer.

🌱Vitamin D can be a a strong adjuvant in treatment of all types of breast cancer.

🌱Please get your vitamin D levels checked and if you’re not able to, then start taking a low dose such as 1000 micrograms of vitamin D3 daily and try to get ten minutes of early morning sun exposure several times a week.

Causes:

1-Delay in care during holidays ( biggest factor). Also:
• Hospitals run with reduced staffing, fewer specialists, and less continuity
• Primary care offices are closed → conditions escalate before treatment
This disproportionately affects heart attacks, strokes, sepsis, asthma, and complications of chronic disease.

2. Cardiovascular stress peaks
• Cold exposure → vasoconstriction, higher BP
• Heavy meals, excess salt, alcohol → fluid shifts & arrhythmias
• Emotional stress (grief, loneliness, family conflict)
Result: More fatal MIs, sudden cardiac death, and strokes

3. Respiratory infections surge
• Influenza, RSV, COVID, pneumonia peak
• Indoor crowding + travel
• Frail populations decompensate quickly

4. Alcohol-related and metabolic effects
• Acute alcohol toxicity
• Withdrawal in dependent individuals
• Hypoglycemia / hyperglycemia in diabetics

5. Disruption of medications & routines
• Missed meds (BP, insulin, anticoagulants)
• Travel-related dehydration or immobility
• Sleep deprivation
Small lapses compound in vulnerable people.

6. Psychosocial vulnerability
• Loneliness and depression peak
• Su***de risk increases (especially in older men)
• Elder neglect or isolation is more common this week

You all know about bifidobacteria by now if you’ve been following me for a while but there are many beneficial probiotic strains in the gut.

THINGS TO REMEMBER:

1-Your gut is a delicate ecosystem, too much of some of the strains in these slides and that balance can tip to the harmful side.

2-Never take a single strain probiotic for a prolonged period. It will cause an imbalance in the gut and diversity in gut health is key.

3- Saccaromyces Boulardi has been shown to improve symptoms of H pylori gastritis and diarrhea symptoms.

4- Akkermansia is present in higher numbers in thin individuals and is believed to help with weight balance. However, high levels in the gut have been associated with cancer risk.
Akkermansia produces enzymes called mucinases which helps to break down excess mucin which is present in inflammation and this can help with the intestinal mucus layer, but…. too much Akkermansia disrupts the mucin production/break down process leading to thinning of the intestinal mucus lining and damages the intestinal barrier which can aggravate IBD but also increase risk of cancer.

4-Most people think of Candida as a bad thing but again in balanced levels it helps to keep the balance in the gut. It’s when harmful bacteria take over that the balance is disrupted.

These slides were taken directly from ESNM: Gut microbiota for Health ( Gutmicrobiotaforhealth.com)

Cooking oil:

🌱The good:
This oil is cheap and has a high smoke point. It’s used in many restaurants because of that ( even the fancy ones you’re paying more $$ at).

🌱The bad:
1-it is high in linoleic acid—an omega 6 fatty acid. While small amounts of omega 6 fatty acids are ok, high levels can contribute to oxidative stress through a process called lipid peroxidation, which creates harmful byproducts in the body causing damage to cells and increasing obesity risk

🌱Can you guess what oil this is?

A lot of people know it’s important to take folic acid and vitamin b12 during pregnancy but there’s another important vitamin that is crucial for in utero development. Studies show an increased risk of Autism and ADHD in babies born to mothers deficient in this vitamin.

🌱My latest article for Canada Pharmacy Online breaks down the importance of all 3 of these vitamins and why they’re so important for a new baby’s health but also into adulthood.

Want to read the article? Comment the word VITAMIN and I’ll send you the link.

🌱Several studies linking the type of earwax you make to not only Alzheimer’s but to certain types of cancer including breast cancer and lymphomas.

🌱Hearing loss due to impacted cerumen has also been linked to Alzheimer’s.

🌱Happy to send studies if anyone is interested.

🌱What kind of earwax do you have?
I have wet 😭
