Sugar substitute linked to heart attacks, stroke, death; ‘stay away,’ lead researcher advises

MICHELE BLOOD

February 27, 2023

Erythritol, a popular zero-calorie sugar substitute, has been linked to blood clotting, stroke, heart attack, and death, according to a study published online in Nature Medicine journal Monday.

“The degree of risk was not modest,” lead study author Dr. Stanley Hazen, director of the center for cardiovascular diagnostics and prevention at the Cleveland ClinicLerner Research Institute told CNN.

“For people who are at risk for clotting, heart attack and stroke — like people with existing cardiac disease or people with diabetes — I think that there’s sufficient data here to say stay away from erythritol until more studies are done,” Hazen also said.

“This certainly sounds an alarm,” Dr. Andrew Freeman, director of cardiovascular prevention and wellness at Denver’s National Jewish Health hospital told the outlet. Freeman was not involved in the research.

**Comment**

Some Lyme/MSIDS doctors use erythritol and stevia for biofilm busters in part of an overall treatment.  Make sure you discuss this study with your doctor if you are using it.

SUMMARY:

  • The study involved those already at risk for cardiovascular problems making applicability to the general population unknown
  • It was found to be on par with the strongest of cardiac risk factors like diabetes
  • Those already at risk had double the likelihood of having a heart attack or stroke if they had the HIGHEST level of erythritol in their blood
  • The sugar substitute is found naturally in foods like grapes and mushrooms, is poorly metabolized and mostly excreted in urine which is why it is called “zero-calorie.”
  • The amount in food is low and therefore safe.  When incorporated in processed foods; however, it’s often added at levels 1,000 fold higher.
  • It is used in branded sweeteners like Truvia, products for Keto diets, and reduced sugar products for those with diabetes.  Go here for a list.

Spartacus is Back: Why You Shouldn’t Take the COVID “Vaccine”

Spartacus is back with another powerful article explaining in detail why these injections should be taken off the market immediately and criminal charges should be brought against everyone involved in their manufacture and distribution, and everyone who mandated them.

PSA – Why You Shouldn’t Take the Vaccine

A highly condensed primer on why these vaccines are so dangerous

Spartacus

Feb. 25, 2023

If someone you know is planning on taking a COVID-19 vaccine, here is why they shouldn’t do it, in a nutshell.

COVID-19 vaccines, particularly the mRNA platform behind the Pfizer and Moderna shots, were developed with shady DARPA biodefense money and venture capital funding, much of it going to a company that, for over a decade, had no commercial products whatsoever, whose CEO formerly worked for another company whose founder helped build the P4 lab at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. These injectables were obtained by our governments under contracts that absolve their manufacturers of any liability for the injuries they may cause.

PEGylated lipid nanoparticles are highly inflammatory synthetic oils conjugated with polyethylene glycol. These PEGylated lipids have been known to cause anaphylaxis in an unlucky few.  (See link for article as well as an audio version of the article)

Please share widely.

**Comment**

This, right here, is a “must read” as is Spartacus’ other article posted on this website which is another detailed account of what COVID actually is, what treatments work, what doesn’t and why, and why virtually everything else the ‘experts’ said is wrong.

It’s really important to read about the military aspect of the COVID shots, as well as understand the Chinese connection.  The origin of COVID remains shrouded by being classified, with U.S. senators demanding these documents be accessible to the public.

It’s also important to know about the work of Charles Liebner which continues today through Jia Lui of Harvard who patented Lieber’s work – nanoscale wires/electronics which can be embedded in biological structures such as tissues and organs to apply an electrical stimulus to the biological structure.  It’s all very creepy, dystopian globalist, WEF, WHO, NATO, UN, digitization, AI stuff designed to control the public and virtually all aspects of life on planet earth.

Once you go down all the right bunny holes, everything becomes much more clear.
The conspiracies are not theories, but are in fact very real and have frightening implications.

CA Ticks Spread Lyme But That’s Not the Whole Story

California Ticks Can Spread Lyme Disease…But That’s Not the Whole Story

by Paul Killinger on February 24, 2023

<span id="hs_cos_wrapper_name" class="hs_cos_wrapper hs_cos_wrapper_meta_field hs_cos_wrapper_type_text" style="" data-hs-cos-general-type="meta_field" data-hs-cos-type="text" >California Ticks Can Spread Lyme Disease…But That’s Not the Whole Story</span>
If you find a tick bite from an Ixodes tick in California, it’s important to consider possible exposure to pathogens that cause more than Lyme disease

Originally published on Medzulabs.org 

The risk of contracting Lyme disease from a tick bite in California has been well-documented, though there is still a long way to go in educating health providers and the broader community in the exposure risk from a tick bite. TickReport’s surveillance of ticks from California (and Oregon and Washington) goes back as far as 2006 and has expanded in recent years.

What ticks are endemic (commonly and consistently found in wild populations) to California and other West Coast states?

That’s a big question, and there are a few dozen species from different genera or families. Many of those species are specialist feeders and—if everything goes “right” in their life cycle—they will only feed on certain wild mammals, birds, or lizards and will bite humans very rarely. That’s doesn’t mean that finding one of these “specialists” attached to ourselves or a family member is impossible: it’s just much less common (and a topic we’ll try to visit soon in another post).

Our surveillance shows that the majority (91.5%) of human or human-adjacent (dogs, cats, horses, etc) tick bites are caused by the following ticks:

  • Ixodes pacificus (“Western black-legged tick,” a close relative of the Deer tick in the Eastern U.S.)
  • Dermacentor variabilis (“American dog tick”)
  • Dermacentor occidentalis (“Pacific Coast tick”)
  • Dermacentor andersoni (“Rocky Mountain Wood tick”)
  • Ixodes spinipalpis
  • Ixodes angustus
What pathogens can these ticks transmit to humans?

Vector competence (the ability of a vector like a tick to transmit a given disease-causing pathogen) tends to run along genus lines, so species within the Ixodes genus tend to be able to transmit pathogens X and Y but not Z, while Dermacentor species tend to transmit Z but not X and Y.

The most common pathogen found in California ticks is Borrelia burgdorferi, which causes Lyme disease in humans and pets. But there’s more than Lyme in those hills! If you find a tick bite from an Ixodes tick in California, it’s also important to consider possible exposure to these pathogens:

  • Borrelia miyamotoi: a bacterium that can cause hard tick relapsing fever—sometimes called Borrelia miyamotoi disease.
  • Anaplasma phagocytophilum: a bacterium that can cause Human granulocyctic Anaplasmosis.
*For every two ticks we find infected with Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme disease bacteria), we detect one (or more) of these other pathogens

It’s vital that both tick surveillance and diagnostic approaches keep these non-Lyme pathogens in mind. For every two ticks we find infected with Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme disease bacteria), we detect one (or more) of these other pathogens, so be sure to resist Lyme Tunnel Vision when responding to a tick bite! Common diagnostic tests for Lyme disease have a specific focus on Lyme disease and will not detect infection by these other pathogens if present. Make sure you and your doctor are considering the whole story of a tick bite.

2023 Case Study: Reversible Dementia Caused by Lyme Disease

<span id="hs_cos_wrapper_name" class="hs_cos_wrapper hs_cos_wrapper_meta_field hs_cos_wrapper_type_text" style="" data-hs-cos-general-type="meta_field" data-hs-cos-type="text" >2023 Case Study: Reversible Dementia Caused by Lyme Disease</span>
A case of reversible dementia with Lyme treatment?

Annals of Geriatric Medicine and Research (Sanchini, C., et al.) 2.6.23, published “A case of reversible dementia? Dementia vs delirium in Lyme disease.” The report describes a case of a 75-year-old man who was admitted to the Alzheimer’s Disease Care Unit of the Institute Golgi in Abbiategrasso, Italy.

According to the case report, the man had been recently discharged from a local hospital with a diagnosis of “cognitive impairment, deficit of memory, and poor capacity of criticism compatible with degenerative disease.”

The patient was a multilingual interpreter with a high school degree. He enjoyed walking in the countryside with his dog, but he had been experiencing knee pain – for about a month. The pain would worsen and migrate to his other joints. The case also reports that he had been showing minor memory deficiency and ideomotor slowdown.

A CT scan showed abnormalities, but blood tests were within normal ranges, the only thing noted was increased inflammation. As time went on, the patient became more confused and disoriented, presenting with hallucinations, aggressive behavior, and insomnia.

With the patient having arthritis, he was tested for Lyme. Lyme antibodies were detected by the western blot. Initial intravenous ceftriaxone treatments did not alleviate the patient’s symptoms. Oral doxycycline was administered as well as a brief course of quetiapine to manage the hallucinations.

Soon after 6–7 days of antibiotic therapy, delusional symptoms and hallucinations were reduced, and his insomnia improved. Urinary incontinence completely resolved. His behavioral profile also improved, with a reduction in agitation, aggression, and depression. His language became more fluent and communicative.

**Comment**

This proves that antimicrobial therapy helps Lyme/MSIDS patients, unfortunately, this patient will most probably suffer relapses as this duration of therapy has been proven to be insufficient time and time again.  Herein lies one of the most glaring problems that has not changed in 40 years.  The other glaring problem is the coinfection involvement that often occurs, necessitating different medications.

But, the band plays on…..

Lancet Three Years Late & 10 Myths Now Debunked. The CDC Must Not Survive COVID

March 1, 2023

**Update March, 2023**

Senior Fellow of the Hoover Institution, and previous COVID adviser, Dr. Scott W. Atlas, was also featured in Newsweek, in the opinion section of course, where he details how America’s COVID response was based on lies.  Similarly to the video below that exposes 10 myths, Atlas has his own “10 biggest falsehoods” about COVID, known for years to be false:

  1. COVID has a far higher fatality rate than the flu.  FALSE
  2. Everyone is at significant risk to die from it.  FALSE
  3. No one has any immunological protection because it’s completely new.  FALSE
  4. Asymptomatic people are major drivers of the spread.  FALSE
  5. Locking down will stop or eliminate it.  FALSE
  6. Masks will protect and stop the spread.  FALSE
  7. The virus is natural, and claiming it’s from a lab is a conspiracy theory.  FALSE
  8. Teachers are at especially high risk.  FALSE
  9. COVID “vaccines” stop the spread.  FALSE
  10. Immune protection only comes from a “vaccine.”  FALSE

Although I posted on the Lancet’s review previously, the following articles are important because people are becoming emboldened to speak out on the absolute lunacy of the past three years which includes the denial of natural immunity (among MANY other issues still waiting in the sidelines to be rectified) by public health, mainstream medicine and media.  These same groups then censored, threatened, and maligned anyone who disagreed with their lunacy.  Jobs and reputations were forever lost due to unscientific edicts causing untold damage.

There appears to be a new trend in mainstream media that is allowing for a few orchestrated concessions in the COVID wars. The latest opinion piece highlighted below from the NY Post titled: “10 Myths Told by COVID Experts – and Now Debunked” is one such example; however, many still remain emotionally and powerfully entrenched in government issued directives that don’t work at all despite the admissions of fact.

Expert Testimony: “The Greatest Perpetrator of ‘Misinformation’ During the Pandemic Has Been the United States Government.”

The Hill

March, 2023

In short, the following myths have been debunked:  (please share this widely – the madness needs to end)

  1. Natural immunity offers little protection compared to vaccines.  FALSE  (Most Americans who were fired for not getting the clot shot already had antibodies which the government refused to recognize.)
  2. Masks prevent COVID transmission.  FALSE (But CDC director Walensky downplayed the latest study because it focused on randomized controlled studies, which are normally considered the gold standard of evidence!)
  3. School closures reduce COVID transmission. FALSE (CDC ignored European experience which showed transmission rates were no different.)
  4. Myocarditis from the “vaccine” is less common than from the infection. FALSE (it’s actually 6-28 times more common after the injections and tens of thousands of kids likely got subclinical myocarditis)
  5. Young people benefit from a “vaccine” booster. FALSE (the FDA’s top two vaccine experts left the agency in protest because there is no data to support this at all)
  6. “Vaccine” mandates increased “vaccination” rates. FALSE (the Biden regime demanded that unvaxxed workers, soldiers, and health care workers be fired, discharged, and laid off regardless of their risk or natural immunity and despite the fact the shots do not reduce transmission or infection and actually set you up for illness).
  7. COVID originating from the Wuhan lab is a conspiracy theory.  FALSE (overwhelming circumstantial evidence points to a lab leak, and patents prove shady deals).
  8. It’s important to get the 2nd COVID shot dose 3-4 weeks after the first dose.  FALSE  (data show that spacing the vaccine by 3 months reduces complication rates, but why get it at all since it’s ineffective and linked to adverse events and even death?)
  9. Data on the bivalent “vaccine” is ‘crystal clear.’  FALSE  (data that was used to approve it was based on EIGHT mice)  
  10. 1 in 5 people get long COVID.  FALSE (UK study found only 3% had residual symptoms lasting 12 weeks. Calling cases that experience mild fatigue or weakness for a few weeks after illness “long COVID” is the medicalization of ordinary life.)

Three Years Late, the Lancet Recognizes Natural Immunity

The public-health clerisy rediscovers a principle of immunology it derided throughout the pandemic.
By Allysia Finley

The Lancet medical journal this month published a review of 65 studies that concluded prior infection with Covid—i.e., natural immunity—is at least as protective as two doses of mRNA vaccines. The most surprising news was that the study made the mainstream press.  (See link for article)

The article is behind a paywall, but Brencha Baletti, Ph.D. writes for The Defender and gives the following important quote by Finley:

“The Lancet study’s vindication of natural immunity fits a pandemic pattern: The public-health clerisy rejects an argument that ostensibly threatens its authority; eventually it’s forced to soften its position in the face of incontrovertible evidence; and yet not once does it acknowledge its opponents were right.”

Truer words were never spoken, and while some have been onto the scam from the get-go, many people are still confused or remain staunch in following futile public health dictates, which have caused more harm than good.  Further, corrupt public health has not come clean but has offered meaningless platitudes with no real change, and then has the gall to ask for more money and power, and double down on fruitless pandemic measures.

Again, for the hard of hearing: No Amnesty for Branch Covidians.

This denial and censorship of natural immunity has also caused untold damage, including pushing people to get dangerous and ineffective experimental gene therapy injections that have been linked to more reports of adverse reactions and death than any other vaccine in the history of VAERS.  Sadly, the damage continues.

Which brings up another good point:

CDC Must Not Survive COVID-19

They have $10.1Bln Discretionary Funds and got everything – EVERYTHING – wrong. By my estimation, the health of all future generations is at stake. We cannot accept a stalemate.

James Lyons-Weiler

Discretionary Budget Authority (CDC):  10.1 BILLION dollars

Discretionary Budget Authority (IPAK):  84 thousand dollars

CDC receives 14.1 million times more funding than IPAK. Think about that. Given the run I’ve given them in challenging them to embark on object research, I’d say that it’s fairly clear that we should invest heavily in independent research.

A Timeline of Highlights

When I started looking into vaccine safety studies in 2014 for a book on biomedical research, I was looking for success stories in translational research. When, at the last moment, I decided to add a chapter on vaccines, I thought it would be easy. So easy, in fact, I expected the vaccine chapter to be the easiest to write for the book.

Along the journey that followed, I appeared in the Netflix Documentary “Pandemic” – before the pandemic, was hunted by a group of amateurs affiliated with the BBC (leading to their taking down a Youtube video and performing correcting edits). I’ve been on national news stations, uncountable radio spots and podcasts, all with the same message: CDC has destroyed trust in public health by warping science to the point where it is unrecognizable as such to those who are trained to know the difference.

The CDC’s reliance on the myth of their reputation as a definitive authority for reliable information was a massive error: sooner or later, someone was bound to look and find facts that run counter to CDC’s blustery claims, such as

(a) not all vaccines had been tested for association with autism (my “Magic” presentation @ Life University, 2015)

(b) some studies did, in fact, find association with autism (my “Magic” Presentation @ Life University, 2015)

(c) true insert saline placebos were not used in most of the vaccine studies (ICANDecide.org)

We were on a serious roll. Then COVID-19 hit. Here’s a timeline with some of the key events and initiatives I’ve been involved in – not for boasting, but for resource use.

Time and time again, my analyses have caught CDC, FDA, Pfizer, Moderna, and others falling far short of basing their positions on their own data. From the actual initial efficacy of the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines (75%, not 95%), to fudged report after report on the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, I watched the march of efficacy decline until the evidence of negative efficacy was irrefutable.

Between my own analyses and the analyses of the hundreds of people who have contributed to the awareness stream, I am now at the point where I find the following assertations are well-founded, if not self-evident:

  1. Allopathic medicine is now under the total control of Public Health.
  2. There will be a ten-to-hundred-fold increase in the rate of chronic illness as a result of the COVID-19 vaccine program.
  3. The mRNA is taken up by our genomes.
  4. Epigenetic and genetic effects of the mRNA vaccine are a certainty.
  5. Increased cancer risk is a necessary result.
  6. The mRNA vaccines have altered the course of human evolution in a major way (selection against those who cannot tolerate mRNA vaccines).
  7. Many who are vaccinated may be permanently sterile.
  8. All physicians must nevertheless turn to the question: what is the best for my patient now?
