New research observing rat and human heart cells shows that within 48 hours of vaccination, the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines form spike proteins. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Contractions of a regular heart muscle cell (top L) and heart muscle cells 48 hours after administration of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. (Courtesy of Rolf Schreckenberg) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ New research out of Germany observing rat and human heart cells shows that within 48 hours of vaccination, the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines form spike proteins. Spike proteins, made from the mRNA instructions inside the vaccines, were detected in the heart cells. While both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines caused cell abnormalities, the...

An estimated 40% of the global adult population have high blood pressure, or hypertension, which puts people at risk of cardiovascular disease and other dangerous health conditions. Recent studies suggest that probiotics may offer a protective effect. A study adds two new strains to the list of potential antihypertensive probiotics. In experiments on hypertensive mice, treatment with the two probiotics, Bifidobacterium lactis and Lactobacillus rhamnosus, returned blood pressure to normal levels. Previous studies have connected the rising rates of hypertension worldwide to increasing consumption of sugar. It likely boosts blood pressure through many mechanisms—increased insulin resistance or salt retention, for...

A little pill called Captagon turns Jihadists into superhuman soldiers. They dont feel pain, they dont fear death and they dont get tired. They become killing machines. Bonus; it makes them murderously psychotic and causes brain damage after prolonged use. It is cheap, easy to produce and highly addictive. The Syrians take it as do the rebels. And from what I hear, ISIS loves the stuff. They laugh when they are beaten, they are high when they rape, they are jazzed when they behead infidels. During the raid in Paris, French police said they found needles used by the attackers...

"Bad" cholesterol isn't the only culprit linked with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, according to a trio of recent studies showing that a different kind of cholesterol is also a strong risk factor for people worldwide. Remnant cholesterol (RC) was confirmed as a strong risk factor for coronary heart disease, heart attacks and stroke, the largest of the studies showed. RC is produced from the metabolism of triglycerides. Using data from almost one million participants—the findings are the first to show, on a large scale, a causal link between high RC and risk of cardiovascular illness. "This tells us...

DC_Draino @DC_Draino BREAKING: 24 year old Navy Vet discharged due to myocarditis from the Covid vaccine has just changed the nation 6 US Senators sent letter to Dept. of Veteran Affairs investigating why they’re denying disability claims for C19 vax injuries All of this started b/c a follower came up to me in the gym and told me his story I posted about it, Senator @marcorubio’s staff reached out to help, and now nationwide policies are being changed so that *every* Veteran can be compensated for their vaccine injuries Social media has its flaws, but it can sometimes be...

Despite health authorities' continued push for people to stay up to date on boosters, public interest appears to be waning. A recent study reveals why... Most Americans eligible for a COVID-19 bivalent booster chose not to get it, and researchers say they now know why. Previous research found that over 80 percent of Americans eligible for the booster decided against it. A new survey administered between February 13 and March 29 of nearly 2,200 Arizona respondents, averaging 53 years old, revealed why those who chose to forgo the booster did so in the fall of 2022. Those who shied away...

An Israeli child has died three years after appearing with his father, who is a pediatrician, in a government film informing children that they have no choice about whether to take the COVID vaccine when it becomes available. Yonatan Erlichman was five years old at the time of the video, which was produced by Mateh Binyamin Regional Council, a regional government body. It aired as an episode in the government-run program, “Shushki in the Land of Binyamin,” "to entertain and educate” children. Shushki is a friendly puppet “child” who asks questions to prompt actual people to respond with “educational answers.”...

In some ways, the link between viruses, vaccines and heart health is simple. Think of your heart as a house, said Dr. Jorge Alvarez, an interventional cardiologist at Methodist Cardiology Clinic of San Antonio. "You have the walls of your house, which are like the walls of your heart. You have the doors, which are the valves. And then you have plumbing and electricity. "A virus can affect all of those aspects of your house," he said. That makes being vaccinated against COVID-19, flu and other illnesses an important way for people with heart disease to protect themselves. That fact...

A sugar replacement called erythritol — used to add bulk or sweeten stevia, monkfruit and keto reduced-sugar products — has been linked to blood clotting, stroke, heart attack and death, according to a study. "The degree of risk was not modest," said lead study author Dr. Stanley Hazen, director of the Center for Cardiovascular Diagnostics and Prevention at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner Research Institute. People with existing risk factors for heart disease, such as diabetes, were twice as likely to experience a heart attack or stroke if they had the highest levels of erythritol in their blood, according to the...

The suspected health harms of artificial sweeteners are piling up – and now a new study has linked one kind of sugar substitute to higher risks of heart health problems. Physician-scientist Stanley Hazen and colleagues at the Cleveland Clinic's Lerner Research Institute wanted to see if they could find any signs that could warn people they were at greater risk of heart attack and stroke. They found it in blood levels of organic compounds used as sweeteners, specifically erythritol; a sweetener commonly used in low sugar, sugar-free, and no-carb foods. Among a group of 1,157 patients undergoing tests at a...

ransomnote: two excerpts from this large, very detailed article below. Attorney Edward Berkovich submitted a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stating, “I request emails sent by and received by Dr. Rochelle P. Walensky, Sherri A. Berger, and Kevin Griffis (all of whom are CDC personnel) on dates beginning February 1, 2021 through May 31, 2021, containing the word myocarditis.” [Emphasis added.] [https://www.cdc.gov/about/leadership.htm]Previously, Mr. Berkovich asked multiple state attorneys general to consider state-level action to investigate Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) officials for reckless endangerment or similar state crimes...

[H/T Grey_Whiskers]Phillip Buckhaults, a cancer genomics expert, and professor at the University of South Carolina has testified before a South Carolina Senate Medical Affairs Ad-Hoc Committee saying that Pfizer’s mRNA vaccine is contaminated with billions of tiny DNA fragments.Buckhaults, who has a PhD in biochemistry and molecular biology, said “there is a very real hazard” that these fragments of foreign DNA can insert themselves into a person’s own genome and become a “permanent fixture of the cell.”He said it’s a plausible mechanism for what might be “causing some of the rare but serious side effects like death from cardiac arrest”...

@P_McCulloughMD Our research papers show COVID-19 vaccine myocarditis is common, serious, and fatal. Cannot be blamed on prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. Extremely concerned about cases if cardiac arrest 2+ years after ill-advised shots. Only hope until we know more is detoxification.

What the Media & Big Pharma Won't Tell You About the Pfizer Clinical Trials, as Explained by RFK Jr."For every life they save by preventing a death from COVID, they are killing four people from cardiac arrest."• In the Pfizer clinical trials, they gave 22,000 people two COVID injections and 22,000 people fake vaccines.• Of the 44,000 in total, one person died of COVID in the vaccine group, and two people died of COVID in the placebo group. So Pfizer, with the misleading measure of relative risk reduction, called their vaccine "100% effective" because two is 100% greater than one....

Famed cardiologist Dr. Anish Koka has expressed his regret at “regurgitating the party line” on mRNA vaccines being “safe and effective” for young people, vowing he would never behave the same way in a similar situation. Koka, a cardiologist with degrees from Penn State and Temple University trained at Jefferson Health, said he “certainly saw an increase” in heart conditions at his Philadelphia clinic after mRNA vaccines were rolled out en masse, “…like many of us in the cardiology community did.” “It’s undeniable,” he stressed. Koka was especially regretful about his personal role in propagandizing for the vaccines: “Me running...

After a heart attack it might be worth it to treat constrictions in blood vessels not involved in the heart attack during the first intervention to treat the heart attack. In a large study, cardiologists were able to show this treatment strategy has advantages over a delayed procedure. A heart attack is caused by the acute blockage of a coronary artery. The affected blood vessels are reopened with an immediate minimally invasive intervention. Half of these patients also have additional blood vessels that are constricted by plaques. The researchers investigated whether the treatment of constrictions in blood vessels not involved...

After a heart attack, elderly adults have better odds for improved health and survival if all major heart vessels are cleared, not just the one that caused the heart attack. Because these patients often have other medical conditions and may be frail, doctors frequently opt to open only the "culprit" blood vessel and leave other partially blocked vessels alone. But new research on more than 1,400 patients aged 75 and older found that clearing all these vessels lowers the one-year risk for death, having another heart attack or stroke, or needing another procedure. "What we found in the study is...

Good cardiorespiratory fitness when young is associated with up to a 40% lower risk of developing 9 specific cancers later on—at least in men—suggests a large long term study. These include cancers of the head and neck, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver, bowel, kidney, and lung. At the start of their stint, when they were aged between 16 and 25, conscripts underwent a standard battery of assessments. The final analysis included more than 1 million men (1,078,000), 84,117 (7%) of whom subsequently developed cancer in at least one site during an average monitoring period of 33 years. Compared with men with...

Methods: We performed a systematic review of all published autopsy reports involving COVID-19 vaccination-related myocarditis through July 3rd, 2023. All autopsy studies that include COVID-19 vaccine-induced myocarditis as a possible cause of death were included, without imposing any additional restrictions. Causality in each case was determined by three independent reviewers with cardiac pathology experience and expertise. Results: We initially identified 1,691 studies and, after screening for our inclusion criteria, included 14 papers that contained 28 autopsy cases. The cardiovascular system was the only organ system affected in 26 cases. In 2 cases, myocarditis was characterized as a consequence from multisystem...

Some children who experienced heart inflammation after COVID-19 vaccination had scarring on their hearts months later, a new long-term study found.Researchers followed a group of 40 patients aged 12 to 18 for up to one year after the children were diagnosed with myocarditis, or heart inflammation, following vaccination with one of the messenger RNA vaccines from Pfizer or Moderna. They performed a series of tests, including echocardiograms.Cardiac MRIs were performed on 39 of the 40 patients. Abnormal results came in for 26 of those who were imaged, including 19 who had late gadolinium enhancement, or signs of scarring. The patients...
