    Obesity "paradox" Strikes Again - Protection Against COVID-19

    I suspect this one will not go down will with the "lean is always good" crowd, which consists predominantly of members of the medical profession.

    CNN: Covid-19 Death Rate Is Under 1% For Everyone But People Over 70

    ...and that <1% death rate is actually about 0.17% on average for everybody except those people over 70. Bottom line - COVID-19 is now confirmed to be less lethal than the flu, according to the govt's own numbers (which are probably biased in favor of making COVID-19 look more deadly than it...

    DHT Is Negatively Associated With Death From Prostate Cancer

    Just a quick study that, despite being epidemiological, raises serious questions about the validity of the "androgen-driven" hypothesis of prostate cancer. If the assumption is that DHT is the primary driver of prostate cancer it is hard to come up with any plausible explanation of how the...

    Mortality Rate Of COVID-19 Is 0.5%, Much Lower Than CDC / WHO Claims

    I try very hard to stay away from politically charged discussions but thought I'd share the studies below, which are arguably more reliable than the countless "professional opinions" thrown left and right by health "experts" all over mainstream media. The fact that WHO and CDC chose to fuel the...

    Millennials Will Likely Die Earlier Than Gen X Due To Poor(er) Health

    This study is perhaps the pearl in the crown of at least 20 studies that have come out over the 2-3 years. It finally states what has been abundantly clear from those prior studies in individual diseases. Namely, there are no young / healthy people any more. Both the Generation X (Gen X) and...

    Avoiding Sunlight May Be As Bad For Health As Smoking A Pack A Day

    As most readers of this blog know, the current recommendations of the American Dermatology Association (ADA) call for pretty much no sun exposure of any skin areas unless those areas have been "protected" by sunscreen. The same recommendation applies to tanning beds and makes not distinction of...

    The War On Cancer Is A Bust - No Real Progress And Actually A Regress

    Mark Twain often repeated a phrase that virtually everybody knows today - "There are lies, damned lies, and statistics". In the age of epidemiology, Big Data, and the rule of chance/entropy, the 3 components of that phrase have largely merged and now most statistical claims can be safely assumed...

    Sperm Count (Biomarker Of Male Health) In The West Has Declined By 60% Since The 1970s

    This topic has been discussed on the forum a few times before but the humbers quotes by recent studies usually hovered around 20% - 30%, which did not cause much alarm among endocrinologists.

    Another "obesity Paradox" - It Lowers Mortality In Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

    I hope this is not taken as a call to get obese. I am posting it simply as an example that obesity may be a protective mechanism once a disease is already established. As such, it should not be viewed always in a negative light but as a possible result of an endocrine disorder, which likely...

    Removal Of Ovaries Increase Risk Of CVD, Cancer, And Premature Death
