LONG NOTES Vast sums are wasted on treatments for back pain that make it worse – Economist, 1/18/20 pg 13. US spends $88M on backpain, vs $113M on cancer. 85% report non-specific back pain. Doctors give MRIs, 80% of which are useless. Scans find slipped discs. 87% who had spinal fusion found no benefit. Despite this, we’ve seen a growing number of studies that link dairy consumption with potentially problematic health outcomes, including faster aging and increased odds of developing cancer. Seemingly underscoring this body of research is a new study out of Brigham Young University, where researchers have found that switching from 2-percent to 1-percent milk is ‘significantly’ linked to longer telomeres and slower aging. The research was performed by Brigham Young University’s Larry Tucker, Ph.D.; the study involved more than 5,800 adults in the US. Based on the data, Tucker found that adults who consumed skim and 1-percent low-fat milk had also experienced ‘several years less biological aging’ when compared to people who consumed two-percent and whole milk. Fixing the root cause of diabetes. (TY WIN) Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Motti Chevion has developed Zygosid-50, the first treatment to restore near-normal cellular sensitivity to insulin, without side effects. Israel’s Concenter BioPharma is preparing to trial Zygosid-50 and give new hope to Type 2 diabetics.

Exercising before breakfast is better because it boosts insulin sensitivity. the synthetic injectable molecule from Israeli startup Raziel Therapeutics melts fat cells. RZL-12 converts white adipose tissue (WAT) into brown adipose tissue (BAT) after a single injection into subcutaneous fat. a quick and dirty meta analysis of resveratrol’s affect on life span is attached. I did it two years ago. The upshot? Living about 5% longer. LINUS PAULING NOTES WINTER 2019
vitamin D is important for proper immune function in older adults. It is important to keep our gut barrier healthy, For treating inflammatory bowel disease (also known as IBD), xanthohumol have been a big success. beneficial effects of polyphenols (with an emphasis on flavonoids) on cognitive function. Authenticity of botanical supplements is a big problem. Many plants naturally contain chemicals that may protect the nervous system. Dr. Douglas Feinstein speaking about vitamin K deficiency and how it can impact the proper function of the nervous system For an update on vitamin C, Dr. Jens Lykkesfeldt explored the effects of this vitamin on gene expression. Dr. Fiona Harrison addressed the vital role that vitamin C plays in the recovery from sepsis. giving sulforaphane (a compound from cruciferous vegetables) may be a practical strategy to deal with the health risks of poor air quality. Drs. Enrique Cadenas and Allan Butterfield started the day with discussions about redox biology in Alzheimer’s disease. Neurodegeneration is one area where the production of oxidants leads to lasting damage – and represents a large opportunity for future therapy. he demonstrated how high doses of vitamin C can turn from antioxidant to pro-oxidant, creating reactive oxygen molecules that can damage (and possibly kill) cancer cells. Cancer has redox vulnerabilities. – Roc, Nutrition Investigator
