SUBtitle: I have decided to take a small amount of tocotrienols regularly
SHORT NOTES: 2021-2030 is the UN Decade of Healthy Aging-More than 1 in 5 adults is inactive in all but four states; After reading about tocotrienols, I have decided to take a small amount regularly; it may not be preferred to consume a vegan diet at an older age; Ivermectin shows excellent efficacy against conventional chemotherapy drug-resistant cancer cells; Older adults without a regular bedtime and wakeup schedule were nearly twice as likely to develop cardiovascular disease; many herbal supplements were called fake but that appear wrong; there is a 25% chance that we are a computer simulation run by an advanced civilization; The energy balance model of obesity: beyond calories in, calories out, is wrong.

After reading about tocotrienols, I have decided to take a small amount regularly. I will be taking 50mg of mixed tocotrienols once a week, primarily for their benefit to nerve cells! How much gamma-tocopherol and tocotrienols should one take? Although tocopherols are predominantly found in corn, soybean, and olive oils, tocotrienols are particularly rich in palm, rice bran, and barley oils. Tocotrienols possess powerful antioxidant, anticancer, and cholesterol-lowering properties. Recently, we have observed that alpha-tocotrienol is multi-fold more potent than alpha-tocopherol in protecting HT4 and primary neuronal cells against toxicity induced by glutamate as well as by a number of other toxins. At nanomolar concentration, tocotrienol, but not tocopherol, completely protected neurons by an antioxidant-independent mechanism. sources of tocotrienols include grape fruit seed oil, oats, hazelnuts, maize, olive oil, buckthorn berry, rye, flax seed oil, poppy seed oil and sunflower oil.
it may not be preferred to consume a vegan diet at an older age. Our perspective is based on the proposed lower bioavailability and functionality of proteins in a vegan diet due to the matrix of the whole-food protein sources, the lower essential amino acid (EAA) content, and specific EAA deficiencies in proteins derived from plant-based foods.
Ivermectin shows excellent efficacy against conventional chemotherapy drug-resistant cancer cells and reverses multidrug resistance.
Heartline study – Older adults without a regular bedtime and wakeup schedule were nearly twice as likely to develop cardiovascular disease.
Science 4 Feb ’22-pg 484-Newmaster claimed in 2013 that many herbal supplements were fake based on DNA tests. Now those results appear to be phony. Pg 503-David Chalmers, distinguished consciousness expert, has a book claiming there is a 25% chance that we are a computer simulation run by an advanced civilization, like Matrix.
The energy balance model (EBM) of obesity: beyond calories in, calories out. We present a more accurate description of the EBM where the brain is the primary organ responsible for body weight regulation operating primarily below our conscious awareness via complex endocrine, metabolic, and nervous system signals to control food intake in response to environmental influences as well as the body's energy needs.
