Real science vs. fake science: learn the truth about the so-called “climate emergency”

August 24, 2023 -

On the one hand, you have climate fanatics who insist the world is "boiling" or "melting," and that the only way to fix it is to ban everything that makes life in modern times livable. On the other hand, you have climate realists who admit that the climate has always been changing, and that there is no real climate emergency based on historical weather patterns.

Nobel Laureate Dr. John Clauser falls in the second camp, having recently affixed his signature to the World ...

SHOCK STUDY: Covid jab spike proteins persist in brain tissue, potentially causing long-term brain damage

May 09, 2023 -

Researchers out of Germany and Denmark evaluated brain tissue samples both in mouse models and post-mortem humans, looking for the presence and distribution of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. They specifically looked at the skull-meninges-brain axis.

They found that spike protein from the shots accumulates in the skull marrow, brain meninges, and brain parenchyma, further explaining that the "injection of the spike protein alone caused cell death in the brain, highlighting a direct ...

Energy drinks cause BRAIN DRAIN: here’s how

August 10, 2023 -

The answer is that these chemical-laden beverages are not that safe after all – and here's why.

For one, most of them are loaded with caffeine, which Omar Eliwa, a registered pharmacists in Wisconsin, says "gives a false source of energy."

"You're getting more than what your brain can take," Eliwa says. "It will be detrimental in the long-term to memory, the aging of the cells, depletion of nutrients, and it makes you not want to eat, so it affects metabolism as ...

Dr. Bryan Ardis: NICOTINE can “CURE brain tumors”

June 20, 2023 -

He made these claims during a backstage discussion with David and Stacy Whited, the hosts of the "Flyover Conservative" podcast, at the Miami leg of Clay Clark's 2023 ReAwaken America Tour. Ardis cited one study that found 36 different animal venoms in patients infected with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19).

"During this [COVID-19] pandemic, they're taking the exact same venoms, injecting them into mammals and seeing what they do inside of the patients," he told the Whiteds....

(Article by Neil Munro republished from Breitbart.com)His conversion to the progressives’ transsexual anti-science ideology has prompted hoots and laughter from critics.

DeGrasse Tyson is revising “1950s gender stereotypes to justify an [transgender] ideology that leads to sterilization” of teenagers, responded Chloe Cole, a young woman who was swept up by transsexualism when she was an insecure teenager. Cole scoffed:He is “either clueless and incurious about the ...

Science journal finally admits covid jabs cause autoimmune disorders

July 11, 2023 -

Another name for "long covid," long vax encompasses the consortium of autoimmune-related and other health conditions that people who get jabbed for covid tend to develop at some point after the fact.

The government and media have long denied that any of this even exists, instead falsely claim the shots are "safe and effective." But the new study in Science dashes all that to pieces.

While the medical, media, and government establishments have finally conceded to ...

Science says there’s NO EVIDENCE supporting transgender drugs, surgeries

June 14, 2023 -

Despite constant claims from the LGBT industry that cutting off children's body parts and giving them gender-bender pharmaceutical drugs is helping these little ones to "heal" and become their "true selves," the overwhelming body of science points to the exact opposite being true.

"Gender-affirming care," as the left deceptively calls it, is creating more health problems, both mental and physical, in people who fall for it. And once the process is complete, a child can ...

One in three science papers is FAKE, research finds

May 15, 2023 -

After screening some 5,000 different published papers using what Science calls a "fake-paper detector," Sabel learned that in 2020, the year of the fake "pandemic," one in three published papers on neuroscience were fake.

6 Natural ways to increase blood flow to your brain

August 22, 2023 -

Your brain is one of three vital organs that consume the most oxygen. Despite comprising only two percent of your total body weight, your brain consumes about 18.4 percent of the oxygen that enters your body, making it the second highest oxygen consumer after the liver, which uses about 20.4 percent. Your brain needs plenty of oxygen because in order to generate energy, it relies almost exclusively on a form of metabolism that requires oxygen. Your brain cells, or neurons, also ...
