Polyps? You're talking colon cancer? Colon cancer is another beast. If you're at risk, screening is indeed a good idea. I don't think very many people do not die of their colon cancer if left untreated.

It looks like 95% of the prostate cancer are benign, so it seems the correct, and current way to deal with it, is to not look for it unless there are symptoms. You don't want to reduce your life expectancy by taking serious cancer treatment for something that won't bother you and much less kill...

Half of 90 years old have prostate cancer. Very few die of it. Only 2% of men die of it. Would seem to be one of the least dangerous and to progress very slowly in the vast majority of case. To the point that screening isn't recommanded in most cases.

You'll need to do a little bit of work What would you like to improve? For example : fuck it's summer, my allergies are back. Get on quercetine, nac, iodine and some b vitamine. Then fuck it's autumn i'm going to get sick again, you start on vitamine C, D, zinc, copper and maybe some green tea...

It's probably better to rotate your vitamin rather than taking the same all the time. I know chinese doctors like to give a different prescription for each season. Intuitively it seems a good idea.

The older you get, the more you'll appreciate the help in recovery. Supplement in collagen in your 20's might not be optimal, but in your 40's that's another story. It can really do wonders on muscle and joint pain.

Yeah in mankind's history people definitely used to eat the exact same amount of calories every day. That's how our body is supposed to work! Considering the various beneficial mechanisms triggered by fasting, it's a bit silly to not do it on occasion, and therefore you need also to run a...

I always drift back to old, and bad, habits. That's the natural thing to do... brain sees available food, brain wants it. That's where fasting is magical. A few days of fasting resets everything. And I believe it to be better anyway, to alternate fasting period for waste elimination and then...

With high blood calcium you might want to add k2 to D intake.

This is a bit suboptimal, as the optimal is around 200-230 but fasting will temporarily increase TC and decrease HDL, I guess if you've been in 500+ caloric restriction for weeks you could be in a state similar to fasting, so you might have normalized you cholesterol already, you'll know in a...

Sounds like you did everything right. How 'high' is your cholesterol ? When you're that much in calorie deficit for an extended period of time, might be wise to not work out hard, but just increase light exercice, like simply walking more. You just need to signal your body you need your...

It's too hard to be 'deep' in keto for an extended period of time, and not clear you should. That's why most people moved away from it. If you're on/off you're already doing better than most people doing keto, but in fact are just low carb, but not enough to actualy be in ketosis. And it...

Eating properly is indeed difficult, but it's not something you can't manage. 250g of Steak one meal, 4 eggs and 100g of Ham/Sardine the other and you're at 120g of protein, which should be enough for building muscle, and definitely a whole lot better for your health in the long run than protein...

This one is a frankenfood why 30+ ingrededients, it's both whey protein and has a bunch of vitamin added. I guess if you're taking it for a couple of weeks as a supplement, maybe it could be beneficial, but I guess that would be as bad as any other ultraprocessed meat in the long run.

Why not just eat more proteins during meals?

Depend on what you're trying to achieve. If you're trying to lose weight, might be better to eat after walking, with lot of fat/protein to try to not overeat. If you're trying to fix or prevent diabetes, walking right after eating will significantly decrease blood glucose peak. If you're...

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7926526/ K2 vitamin might be something you'd want to add to Vit D. K2 deficiency isn't the root cause, but it could part of reason why you have stones.

Have you tried collagen? Nowadays that's the only supplement I regularly take, with vit D. It did wonder for a long lasting cervical pain. The evidence that it works are increasingly clear. Same for IR exposure, it helps.

No idea, that's more a question for @sleevedraw. I'm just an autistic EQ player who had health issues and proceeded to minmax that shit. I have an IBD, and all doctors could offer was cutting random stuff and hope for the best. I'm glad I didn't take that route and watched youtube videos...

What will get you cancer is living in Florida, not going out much, but when you do it's in the middle of the day in summer. That's not how it's supposed to work. I think Seheult explains it in that video, or another one, but if you are to expose your skin you have to do it the proper way. The...

⁰ The data is age corrected, and if cancer takes more than 50 years to manifest, even if true (which is not) that would not be a serious concern to a 40 year old. I feel like that's something extremely important. The way we're dealing with the sun is completely retarded, and probably as much...

Uh absolutely no sunscreen. Morning / evening sun are entirely harmless. At your lunch break, be careful, don't get burnt. Progressively train your skin, don't rush it. Regular sun exposure won't give you skin cancer, quite the opposite, unless you're really out of your place (like blond in...

35ish isn't terribly bad, but only good can happen from increasing that to 50ish at least. You can certainly increase vit D a bit. Sun exposure seem to make a massive difference for testosterone. Can't spend 30 mn in the sun in the morning? Take a coffee/breakfast outside. Can be tricky if you...

Did you check your vit D level? How much time do you spend outside every day?

Being 40+ pounds overweight doesn't happen overnight, you abused your body for a while, it won't recover overnight either. You can go see a doctor for a quick fix, that might even work, for a while, but unless you really fix the root cause other shits will happen. 6 weeks is not a lot if...

That was my thought as well. Sun exposure is also crucial for testosterone. You'll find a bunch of studies on that.

I have no idea for the USA, but all you need is a supplement that provide the totox for each of their batch and a lab analysis showing no heavy metal contamination. Then don't forget to keep it in the fridge to avoid further oxydation . Nordic labs seems okayish; at least for the cod liver oil...

Really looks like adrenal fatigue symptom. You might be feeling better as your cortisol level go beneath a certain threshold. It's a vicious circle, high cortisol cause anxiety which in turn will increase cortisol levels. It's probably not the only thing going on, but it's one thing you can...

It's rarely just one thing, that's what doctors struggle with. You'll smoke, and various factors (and there are plenty...) will weaken your immune system, your genetics will play a role, your environment will play a role as well, a combination of those factors will land you cancer. Isolating...

I think it's the same for cholesterol, can you even reach the unhealthy level (300+ TC) without some severe organ disfunction ? Some people should avoid some stuff, depending on their health, but most people would massively benefit from eating more of those goddamn salted eggs.

Doctors are all : less meat, cholesterol bad, less salt. ACM studies : the more meat, cholesterol and salt the longer you live. Was discussing it with a colleague earlier today, and he an interesting comment, salt is one thing you're noticing immediately if it's lacking. Unlike magnesium...

You should be careful of not being sodium deficient, a lot of people are because we've been told all our lives that salt is bad. If your kidney is normal, you're just going to piss away fairly quickly any extra. But if you're deficient, it will lead to brain, neurological issues. Like...

To be fair keto for one year would be difficult, most people stop keto after a while because it's just too hard to maintain. And you're probably not supposed to be in ketosis for months anyway. But a couple of weeks can be useful, especialy as people that try keto usually end up eating less...

Keto diet might be worth trying for neuropathy. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7781473/ Most studies looking at it show some sort of benefit. I know someone who had severe pain in her arm for 2 years (thx vax) that got rid of it with a low carb diet. Worst case is you won't have...

Do you have diabetes ?

If you're not taking them already, various studies show Omega 3 supplement do make a difference for bp.

Indeed, if anxiety is starting in the evening before going to bed, that's more unnatural than during the night when cortisone is naturaly higher. Either way, the aim is to have a cortisone level as low as possible when falling asleep. Eating earlier and avoiding sugars entirely in the evening...

Cortisone levels should be minimum when you go to bed and increase during the night. So it's not surprinsing that anxiety would be worse during the night. Might be adrenal fatigue, too much stress, caffeine not enough sleep over time causing it to dysfunction.

Sigh

A study un-surprinsingly showed that sitting 8+ hours sitting a day was as bad for cardiovascular health as smoking and was barely offset by 1 hour of workout per day. I'll try to find the study, pretty sure I heard of it in a video of Thomas DeLauer but this dude just has top much video. The...
