I think the problems of miscommunication could be fully avoided if you: 1. retaliate when cheated (since you cannot know if it was intentional or not) 2. expect but ignore the reta…

The problem is the lack of heavy metals (which are needed for glucose processing among other things) not sugar as such.

Yes, it was. That's one of the absurd parts - it does show everywhere no matter how old remnants you look at, but the argument was that all those got recently contaminated.

It isn't motivated politically. It just seems to be true and declaring them toxic seems like an error. Anyway, give me a better explanation why people don't look like they did only…

The reason why I think so is that the versions of proteins with heavy metals seem to be superior to those with the supposedly "correct" metal, as well as the heavy metal being extr…

There realy wasn't. Engines switched to fuel injection, which made the octane number less critical, and catalytic converters were mandated that made lead destructive to the car its…

The error with lead was the opposite one. It was a moral panic that's lead to the current health crisis, both mental and physical. People need heavy metals, they are essential.

The inability to burn calories because of nutrient deficiencies is the biggest flaw of CICO. You just won't burn more than your metabolism is capable of burning no matter how hard …

Lead deficiency makes animals both sedentary and depressed. Somebody fucked up big time.

Smartphone cameras are nowhere near analog photos, there is just no way to make a good camera so small.

When you have a revolving door of employees, the job sucks in some way and people leave for places that suck less. You have two ways to solve this problem: 1. Figure out what makes…

That's just wishful thinking. The costs on health could be massive if lead is essential. (and it very likely is)

Why did the most enormous progress happen when this poisoning was widespread? And it wasn't only once but at least twice: In Ancient Rome lead was also widely used. The whole idea …

Wärtsilä 31, which claims to be the most efficient engine ever built, claims 167.7g/kWh. Diesel's engine used 317g/kWh. So the amount of fuel used has not even halved in more than …
