I thought #maha liked seaweed extract and vitamins? Well anyway… this is some basic stuff, often taught at the highschool level- feel free to call me next time #rfkjr I didn’t have to crack a book to look any of this up. #health #wellness #food #foodscience
This post is not meant to make people afraid, but I am sharing what I am doing in response to reduced food testing and regulation to safeguard my personal health and the health of loved ones. I am very much not happy about this but I’d also prefer to avoid listeria and other foodborne illnesses. Without independent testing I am concerned that these outbreaks will increase. This post is not to tell you what to do but to share information that you can consider when making food choices, especially for young children, elderly, and other potentially sensitive populations. #health #wellness #cheese #lunchmeat #foodsafety #fda #cdc #listeria
Low cost, simple intervention that can help reduce cardiovascular 🫀 aka #heart disease in older adults. The link between inflammation caused by viruses and tissue and organ damage is well known, making vaccination a great way to reduce overall disease incidence and improve #longevity #health #wellness #heartdisease #shingles #inflammation #immunesystem #cardiac #cardiacarrest #science #stem #immuneboost #immunesupport
Replying to @DeborahC128 Meanwhile in the #unitedstates we have a small stockpile that will cover about 1% of our population. #h5n1 #birdflu #influenza
Though this may not be n immediate shift, I expect it to be evident in the next 1 to 2 years. My goal in being here is to help all of my followers protect their health by being prepared for what might be coming. #health #wellness #viruses #disease #publichealth
Type 1 Diabetes is no longer a death sentence, these children grow up to be adults and live long healthy lives & have children of their own. There is a genetic component to type 1 diabetes much like most autoimmune diseases. Triggers often include #viral #infection. For example, #covid19 causes an increase in type 1 diabetes, other viruses can also be the trigger. #Vaccination has never been associated with type 1 diabetes or #autoimmune disease development, in fact it is preventaitive. #diabetes #jevenilediabetes #insulin #health #wellness #genetics #healthcare #kids #children #childhood #childhooddisease
What is happening inside these agencies right now will impact the health and lives of #Americans for generations. Termination of science funding and #researxh #grants a tiny portion of the federal budget will impact state economies and ensure the #UnitedStates Is no longer a global leader in #STEM. The #HHS has abandoned the #scientific method and basic operations have shutdown. More #disease is coming, fast, and none of our #safety guardrails are there to stop it. The states can not and are not equipped to operate the same way, with the exception of a few large, wealthy states like #NewYork and #california but even these states depend on the #cdc and #hhs for health information and support during disease outbreaks. #resignrfkjr #rfkresign #h5n1 #measles #hepatitis #hiv #mpox #polio #birdflu #cancer #autoimmunedisease #autoimmune #health #wellness #viral #virus
Local #health departments often depend on #federal grants for disease control. These have been cut. State and local health departments are not well equipped to handle major disease outbreaks alone, typically they work with CDC departments that have now been mostly shut down. Measles is continuing to show up and spread, the United States on average is below the vaccine threshold for herd immunity for measles. Some areas are worse than others. We now have no mechanisms in place to promote vaccination and reduce the spread or control #outbreaks. This is a 5 alarm fire. Stop f’ing around with your child’s health because some Facebook moron sent you a u-tube link. #measles #children #childhoodhealth #health #wellness #maha
A new #measles outbreak may be starting in #indiana.#allencountywhich surrounds the city of #fortwayne has a measles vaccination rate of 80%, significantly below the #herdimmunity threshold. Symptoms from measles infection can take between 14-21 days to show up, meaning we may have a few more weeks before the next positive cases show up but I fully expect there to be more. #GenX and #oldermillennials please pay attention to the years recommended for a measles booster & consider getting your titers checked and/or getting an MMR booster after discussing with your doctor. This may be especially important if you travel internationally and/or are in a profession with high exposure risk or are in close contact with anyone who is immunocompromised or unable to get vaccinated (infants, cancer patients, etc.) #science #stem #health #wellness #children
