| [quote]The influencer son of a Chinese billionaire has been | |
| banned from posting on China's Twitter-like Weibo platform after | |
| he questioned the efficacy of a traditional Chinese medicine | |
| (TCM) endorsed by Beijing to treat mild Covid cases. | |
| "The user is currently banned for violating relevant laws and | |
| regulations," reads a message on Wang Sicong's Weibo account, | |
| where he has more than 40.5 million followers. | |
| Known for flaunting his lavish lifestyle online, the 34-year-old | |
| is the son of real estate mogul Wang Jianlin, who was once | |
| China's richest man. | |
| While Weibo did not provide details behind the ban, reports said | |
| it is related to the influencer's now-deleted posts on the | |
| Lianhua Qingwen capsules, a popular herbal medicine used to | |
| treat Covid.[/quote] | |

| [quote]Traditional Chinese medicine more effective for | |
| children�s respiratory infections than standard drugs: new study | |
| ... | |
| In the report published in the journal Pediatric Investigation, | |
| a research team from China identified the formula Yupinfeng | |
| (YPF), which purportedly aids in treating kids suffering from | |
| RRTIs. | |
| The study involved a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of 351 | |
| children with RRTIs divided into three groups. YPF was | |
| administered to the first group, conventional allopathic | |
| respiratory infection treatment pidotimod was given to the | |
| second, and a placebo was given to the third. | |
| ... | |
| 73% of children in the YPF group had their RRTIs return to | |
| normal standard while only 67% in the pidotimod group had the | |
| same improvement. Meanwhile, 39% of the placebo group returned | |
| to normal. | |
| ... | |
| The study showed that YPF was not only superior to pidotimod in | |
| treating RRTIs but is also safe to use for children. | |
| ... | |
| Renowned pulmonologist Dr. Julian Allen, who serves as director | |
| of the Asthma Program at Children�s Hospital of Philadelphia and | |
| the associate editor of Pediatric Investigation, called the | |
| research an �excellent step toward addressing western | |
| skepticism.� | |
| In an editorial piece for the journal, Allen further wrote: | |
| �Just because we don�t understand how a drug works, it doesn�t | |
| mean that it doesn�t work. This well-designed RCT could be an | |
| important step in addressing western skepticism surrounding TCM | |
| and reaping the benefits of its holistic effects.�[/quote] | |

| https://trueleft.createaforum.com/issues/re-psychological-decolonization/msg228… | |
| [quote]"How does a child prevent getting rickets" | |
| Sunlight. | |
| "without dependency on Vit. D" | |
| "Vitamin D" is just the model you choose to use to describe what | |
| is going on. The ancients were well aware that exposure to | |
| sunlight is healthy for children's bones without any notion of | |
| "Vitamin D" in their minds. This is what I am trying to get the | |
| world back to.[/quote] | |
| Now: | |
| https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/man-hospital-overdosing-vitamin-d-toxicity-1844… | |
| [quote]Man hospitalized after overdosing on vitamin D: What is | |
| vitamin D toxicity? | |
| ... | |
| Vitamin D toxicity, also called hypervitaminosis D and vitamin D | |
| intoxication, is typically caused by ingesting too many vitamin | |
| D supplements, rather than by diet or sun exposure. | |
| This condition will not happen through sun exposure because our | |
| bodies regulate the amount of vitamin D produced and absorbed by | |
| the sun.[/quote] | |
| I told you so. The Western model of nutrition is indeed | |
| medically inferior compared to ancient models. | |

| [quote]Certain medications to protect your heart may backfire in | |
| very hot weather, increasing the risk of heart attack, suggests | |
| a study published August 1 in Nature Cardiovascular | |
| Research.[/quote] | |
| Certain Western medications, to be precise: | |
| [quote]They compared cases to use of medications that typically | |
| protect heart health, including anti-platelets like aspirin that | |
| reduce heart attack risk, and beta blockers that treat high | |
| blood pressure. | |
| ... | |
| They found that people taking beta-blockers or anti-platelet | |
| medications like aspirin were 63-65% more likely to have a heart | |
| attack on hot days, compared to more moderate temperature days. | |
| People who took both had a 75% higher risk. In contrast, people | |
| who weren't taking the medications did not have a higher risk of | |
| heart attack on hot days. | |
| While the study found a link between the medications and higher | |
| risk, it doesn't directly show that the drugs themselves are to | |
| blame. One explanation may be that people who are taking those | |
| medications are already at higher risk of heart problems, | |
| according to the researchers. | |
| However, the researchers found that young people, who generally | |
| had better heart health, were more at risk of heat-related heart | |
| attack than people in their 60s and 70s if they took the | |
| medications. | |
| People under 60 years old were also three times as likely to | |
| have heat-related heart attacks if they took statins, | |
| medications to lower cholesterol. | |
| The researchers hypothesized that the specific medications may | |
| make it more difficult for people to regulate their body | |
| temperature in warm weather, according to Kai Chen, first author | |
| of the study and assistant professor in the Department of | |
| Epidemiology (Environmental Health) at Yale.[/quote] | |
| People living in tropical habitats using Western medicine makes | |
| about as much sense as people living in tropical habitats | |
| wearing Western suits. | |

| ... | |
| Taylor said her father didn't have any symptoms of poor health, | |
| but his doctor prescribed a 50-milligram vitamin B6 supplement | |
| to up his levels. Vitamin B6, like other B vitamins, helps the | |
| body convert food into energy by breaking down carbs and | |
| protein. Research suggests it can help the body's immune system | |

| While we're at it, let's look at some history: | |
| https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin#History | |
| [quote]In 1881, Russian medical doctor Nikolai I. Lunin [ru] | |
| studied the effects of scurvy at the University of Tartu. He fed | |
| mice an artificial mixture of all the separate constituents of | |
| milk known at that time, namely the proteins, fats, | |
| carbohydrates, and salts. The mice that received only the | |
| individual constituents died, while the mice fed by milk itself | |
| developed normally. He made a conclusion that "a natural food | |
| such as milk must therefore contain, besides these known | |
| principal ingredients, small quantities of unknown substances | |
| essential to life."[/quote] | |
| No, the mice died because you were experimenting on them, you | |
| Western scientist! If you had simply let the mice eat whatever | |
| they themselves wanted to eat, all of them would still be alive! | |
| And this does not require the mice themselves to have any | |
| abstract concept of "vitamins"! Therefore we do not need such a | |
| concept either! All we need are our tongues! | |

| Our enemies' latest complaint: | |
| https://gatesofvienna.net/2022/10/whats-a-little-pain-when-youre-saving-the-pla… | |
| [quote]Are people supposed to now do without anesthesia during | |
| surgery in order to save the climate? | |
| ... | |
| if the invention of anesthesia was once considered a great | |
| medical achievement, since people no longer have to endure the | |
| pain of surgery while fully conscious, the broadcaster Arte now | |
| warns that anesthetic gases may damage the climate. | |
| ... | |
| �Did you know that hospitals are real climate killers? Many | |
| pollutants enter the environment there unfiltered� This also | |
| applies to anesthetic gases, which are used in seven million | |
| operating rooms in Germany every year. The gases are potent | |
| greenhouse gases and are often discharged directly to the | |
| outside via the hospital roof. But many hospitals are now paying | |
| more attention to sustainability.� | |
| ... | |
| So woe to those who need surgery: they pollute the climate and | |
| make tax increases necessary! One would think that the | |
| healthcare system would already have been sufficiently rundown, | |
| without the climate sect making calculations about the emissions | |
| from medical treatments.[/quote] | |
| In short, our enemies want to keep Western medicine going | |
| irrespective of the environmental damage it is causing. | |
| We, in contrast, advocate looking for replacements to Western | |
| medicine. In the case of pain suppression for surgery: | |
| https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2396469/ | |
| [quote]Acupuncture anesthesia has some benefits: (i) it is | |
| simple and easy without complicated tools, (ii) there are no | |
| side effects, (iii) non-painful areas are induced without the | |
| involvement of innervations of the areas stimulated by | |
| acupuncture, (iv) the anesthetic effects last after acupuncture | |
| anesthesia and (v) the wound heals more quickly.[/quote] | |
| Western anaesthetic equipment: | |
| https://aneskey.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/m_butt5_c004f001.png | |
| Non-Western anaesthetic equipment: | |
| https://history.phy | |
| sio/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/acupuncture-needles.jpeg | |
| This is how inferior Western civilization is. (No prizes for | |
| guessing which is more environmentally friendly!) | |
| [quote]There are some drawbacks, however: (i) anesthesia | |
| produced by acupuncture has individual variations and (ii) too | |
| much time is needed to induce anesthesia.[/quote] | |
| Doctors are supposed to view patients as individuals! Yes, this | |
| requires a level of sensitivity on the part of the doctors that | |
| is probably out of reach of most Westerners. | |
| As for time, I would like to see a recalculation that takes into | |
| account the time required to manufacture the Western vs the | |
| non-Western equipment. | |

| [quote]They took blockbuster drugs for weight loss and diabetes. | |
| Now their stomachs are paralyzed | |
| ... | |
| �I wish I never touched it. I wish I�d never heard of it in my | |
| life,� said Knight, 37, of Angie, Louisiana. �This medicine made | |
| my life hell. So much hell. It has cost me money. It cost me a | |
| lot of stress; it cost me days and nights and trips with my | |
| family. It�s cost me a lot, and it�s not worth it. The price is | |
| too high.� | |
| ... | |
| �And even now, being off the medication for almost a year, I�m | |
| still having a lot of problems,� Allen said. She said she was at | |
| urgent care recently after vomiting so much that she became | |
| dehydrated. | |
| ... | |
| Wright said she now vomits so frequently that she had to take a | |
| leave of absence from her job. | |
| �I�ve almost been off Ozempic for a year, but I�m still not back | |
| to my normal,� Wright said. | |
| The diabetes drug Ozempic, and its sister drug for weight loss, | |
| Wegovy, utilize the same medication, semaglutide. These and | |
| other drugs in this family, which includes medications like | |
| tirzepatide and liraglutide, work by mimicking a hormone that�s | |
| naturally made by the body, GLP-1. One of the roles of GLP-1 is | |
| to slow the passage of food through the stomach, which helps | |
| people feel fuller longer. | |
| If the stomach slows down too much, however, that can cause | |
| problems. | |
| ... | |
| Then, instead of just vomiting the food she�d recently eaten, | |
| Wright noticed that she was throwing up food she�d eaten three | |
| or four days prior. | |
| Another gastric emptying test showed her condition had | |
| deteriorated. | |
| �Then the GI doctor said, �Well, I�ve been seeing a lot of | |
| clients coming in with full stomachs on endoscopy who are on | |
| Ozempic. So let�s try taking you off the Ozempic,� � Wright | |
| said. | |
| Both Knight and Wright said they got some relief after coming | |
| off the medication, but their problems continued. | |
| Now, Wright said, instead of throwing up a meal she ate several | |
| days ago, she mostly vomits food she has eaten recently.[/quote] | |
| Why would you even want to artificially slow down the passage of | |
| food through the stomach?! The speed of passage is what it is | |
| for a reason! | |
| Why not simply space out your meals differently? You decide when | |
| and how much you eat; that is the only control you should need. | |
| Why even try to exert control at a different point in the sytem | |
| when you already have control at the usual one? That is | |
| equivalent to playing a video game and not using the joypad but | |
| instead trying to move the character by directly manipulating | |
| the circuit board! | |
| But Western medicine doesn't care..... | |
