I’m referring to your assumption of burnt nose = unhealthy. More nuance is required. I’d bet heavily that a burnt nose is not a problem for Jack. Even if he burnt it once a month for life.

You trust all medicine and “scientific studies”? You realize you sound like the Fauci simps saying “trust the science”? Acting like science is settled is anti-science.

Disconnection with nature is me referring to biophysics. We are all electromagnetic beings below the chemistry level that are regulated by sunlight, water, and electrons from the earth. Packaged into sunlight is the food we eat (food web). Most western world citizens are heavily disconnected from nature with bright blue lights at night, avoiding sun, bombardment from harmful EMFs, and insulated from all electron sharing with the earth. So yes, melanoma and other cancers can definitely be traced back to how our biology and mitochondria is regulated (or not) by nature.

Humanity has NOT evolved to be incompatible with long periods of sun exposure. Lifestyle and society has atrophied our abilities to build a solar callous and store melanin in the biggest organ in our body. These abilities can be regained over time through priming and morning sunlight exposure.

I'm not saying he burnt his nose in the sense of a sunburn but more like irreversible sunspots.

Yeah, I trust the science since I'm a pharmacist, so I guess you could say I'm a scientist too?

for the connection between health and nature I still don't really get it m, but if you've got studies to back this up feel free to share.

Honestly I'm not really sure where you're going with this. Are humans supposed to spend hours in the sun just because their ancestors did? Prehistoric humans had to spend hours in the sun out of necessity; I'm pretty sure if you offered them a roof, a couch, and an air conditioner they wouldn't say no. I get that some people love the sun but there are people who love cigarettes too and that doesn't make them any less harmful.

If you want to believe in some unfounded theory that you can train your skin to adapt to the sun nobody's stopping you. But the facts are there: the sun damages the skin.

I have trained my own skin to adapt to the sun. Last summer I worked up to 2 hrs straight at UV12 without burning or sunspots and I’m caucasian + 25% Irish. There is more nuance to sun damaging skin. Do you know what POMC is? This will give you a great intro to the biophysics that I’m talking about: https://youtu.be/d7qjh4BIGbc?si=pTlUGWL-Dlf00YKz

it's a 2 hour video

Quantum biology is complex. Use 2x speed if you need.

I'm starting to regret commenting on the initial post since I'm finding myself reading scientific articles

I will watch some of it

Kendy 1y ago

I appreciate your open mind

Before watching the video, there's something I don't really understand. so according to google there are 12 million doctors worldwide. I would say 99.99% probably agree on core medical principales. BUT some people choose to listen to the minuscule percentage of doctors who really sound untrustworthy (I even checked this doctor's linkedIn profile). These 'doctors' seem to be pushing these bizarre theories likely for some kind of personal gain. going on podcasts and stuff like that. I think it's really unfortunate that people have such a trust issue with the medical community.

Covid ruined trust in the medical community for a long time. J&J, Pfizer, and Purdue also wrecked trust in your pharma world.

Back to Jack, focus on the message instead of the messenger. Bizarre to you does not mean wrong. I agree this is fringe stuff but I think that is because academia and “big medicine” move painfully slow. And painfully unethically. By the time MDs finish their residency, I’d bet more than half the stuff they’ve learned is either wrong or not even close to the full story.

I think there's no point in going into the subject of covid which seems to be a sensitive topic for some people, but in general I really don't understand the critisim of doctors and the medical community's handling of it. They're just normal people who got vaccinated like everyone else. If there's a problem with the vaccine they and their families will be affected too.

It's not that medicine is moving slowly, I just don't think there are any major discoveries that would have a huge impact. I think they are mainly working on protocols and guidelines for the management of pathologies. And big pharma is mainly working on targeted therapies in the form of antibodies that will target specific proteins in tumors.

I'm still watching the video I will tell what I think about it tomorrow.

Alright I watched 75% of the video and I really made an effort to follow along but I really think there is a lot of nonsense in it. Maybe some parts are legit but since he also says a lot of nonsense you can't really tell the difference between what's real and what's false. He throws some statements out there with such conviction making it seem like real scientific facts supported by real scientific evidence but he probably just made them up. For example, he says Blue light makes vitamin A, Vitamin A is yellow, Blue light makes you fat.. Especially the last point makes no sense at all. Saying that UV rays affect people's weight is just ridiculous. I personally avoid the sun like the plague and I weigh less than 50 kg.

I found these articles that you could read a little bit about the subject, at least there is all the bibliography:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37237866/

https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3921/10/6/920

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5905393/

This guy is definitely overstating the role of UV rays and completely ignoring the damage the sun does to your skin.

So, going back to the story of training your skin to the sun, it's the same thing, it's not supported by scientific evidence. Maybe your skin tolerates the sun better or you feel like you get fewer sunburns, but the damage at the cellular level is there.

you're really don't want to wake up one day with your skin completely damaged and you'll feel like you look 15 years older than people your age and maybe you'll think, yeah maybe it wasn't a good idea to listen to a charlatan.

So if the quantum biology is over your head on first pass, it’s nonsense? jfc… so much for my optimism for your open mind. Quite the scientist you are…

He’s far from the first to work and research in these frameworks. He connects all the dots from blue light to obesity and the Vitamin A stuff in his expansive amount of accessible content. But you already wrote it off after only 2 hours so it’s worthless to continue this conversation.

lolilol 1y ago

honestly yes i think i was open minded in the sense that i researched some of the concepts he talked about and that I learned a few new things from the articles. but linking obesity to blue rays and not diet and exercise it's a concept i couldn't agree with and i don't think it has anything to do with having a scientific background probably 99.99% of people would think the same. 🙂
