Is This the Most Rational and Hopeful Interview In 4 Years?
Who is Bret Weinstein? We all know Tucker Carlson. This interview has now been seen tens of millions of times in less than 1 week. In this interview, Tucker says almost nothing and just lets Bret talk. I believe this is one of the most important talks in the last 4 years. Bret is extremely intelligent, polite and yet he's still very truthful as well. I spoke along side Bret at ICS-5 in Romania this past November. Click here to see this groundbreaking WOW interview. I think Bret Weinstein hit it out of the park here. Nicely done Bret.
Take a Stand: The Dangers of Prolonged Sitting
January 08, 2024
STORY AT-A-GLANCE
There are about 10,000 publications showing that prolonged sitting is harmful to your health and promotes chronic diseases, including obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Within 90 seconds of rising from sitting to standing, the muscular and cellular systems that process blood sugar, triglycerides and cholesterol — which are mediated by insulin — are activated. All of these molecular effects are activated simply by carrying your bodyweight upon your legs
Even if you get 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise each week, there’s still a dose-response association of sitting with waist circumference, systolic blood pressure and glucose levels — a phenomenon referred to as “active couch potato syndrome”
At bare minimum, avoid sitting for more than 50 minutes out of every hour. Ideally, limit sitting to three hours or less
According to biological anthropologists, the fossil record suggests that when early man traded their nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyles for a more settled one, it resulted in a less dense bone structure
Recent research shows moderate exercise — loosely defined as exerting yourself to the point where you're slightly winded but can carry on a conversation — improves all-cause survival two times better than vigorous exercise, and that more is better. It cannot be overdone
Evidence shows that prolonged sitting is devastating your health. In his book, “Get Up!: Why Your Chair Is Killing You and What You Can Do About It,” Dr. James Levine, co-director of the Mayo Clinic and the Arizona State University Obesity Initiative, notes there are about 10,000 publications showing that sitting is harmful to your health.
Prolonged sitting actively promotes dozens of chronic diseases, including obesity and Type 2 diabetes, even if you’re very fit and exercise regularly. It’s also an independent risk factor for premature death, even if you lead an otherwise healthy lifestyle. In fact, chronic sitting has a mortality rate similar to smoking.1
Studies looking at life in agriculture environments show that people in agrarian villages sit for about three hours a day. Meanwhile, the average American office worker can sit for 13 to 15 hours a day, and research shows that vigorous exercise cannot counteract the adverse effects of this prolonged sitting.
Abandoning Nomadic Lifestyle Made Man’s Bones Less Dense
Interestingly, evidence of the biological effects associated with lack of movement go further back than you might think — straight into the human fossil records, as reported by NPR in 2014 (audio above).
According to biological anthropologists at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, the fossil record suggests that when early man traded their nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyles for a more settled one, it resulted in a less dense bone structure. As reported by NPR:2
“The lightweight bones don't appear until about 12,000 years ago. That's right when humans were becoming less physically active because they were leaving their nomadic hunter-gatherer life behind and settling down to pursue agriculture.
A report on the work appeared ... in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,3 along with a study from a different research group that came to much the same conclusion.
Those researchers looked at the bones of people in more recent history who lived in farming villages nearly 1,000 years ago and compared them with the bones of people who had lived nearby, earlier, as foragers.
‘We see a similar shift, and we attribute it to lack of mobility and more sedentary populations,’ says Timothy Ryan, an associate professor of anthropology at Penn State University. ‘Definitely physical activity and mobility is a critical component in building strong bones.’”
Prolonged Sitting Takes a Toll Even if You Exercise
The health effects go far beyond reductions in bone density, however. I for one am absolutely convinced that excessive sitting is a foundational contributor to most chronic health problems and premature death, and research supports this notion. For example, as noted in a 2010 paper in Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews:4
“Even when adults meet physical activity guidelines, sitting for prolonged periods can compromise metabolic health. Television (TV) time and objective measurement studies show deleterious associations, and breaking up sedentary time is beneficial. Sitting time, TV time, and time sitting in automobiles increase premature mortality risk ...
Physiologically, it has been suggested that the loss of local contractile stimulation induced through sitting leads to both the suppression of skeletal muscle lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity (which is necessary for triglyceride uptake and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol production) and reduced glucose uptake ...
[T]he perspective that we propose is that too much sitting is distinct from too little exercise ... [I]nitial findings on the metabolic correlates of prolonged TV viewing time have since been confirmed by recent objective measurement studies, which also show that breaking up sedentary time can be beneficial ...
Importantly, adults can meet public health guidelines on physical activity, but if they sit for prolonged periods, their metabolic health is compromised ... [T]here is ... the potential for high sedentary time and physical activity to coexist ...
An example would be an office worker who jogs or bikes to and from work, but who then sits all day at a desk and spends several hours watching TV in the evening.”
In short, while sitting is clearly a sedentary behavior, standing is not. The authors cite several studies5 showing that prolonged sitting promotes the very ailments that modern society struggles with, while standing protects against them.
For example, the more time you spend watching TV, the greater your risk of abnormal glucose metabolism and metabolic syndrome. Even if you get at least 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise each week, there’s a dose-response association of TV time with waist circumference, systolic blood pressure and glucose levels — a phenomenon referred to as “active couch potato syndrome.”

The mode of action of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines should classify them as gene therapy products (GTPs) <- but they have been excluded by regulatory agencies. Some of the tests they have undergone as vaccines have produced non-compliant results in terms of purity, quality and batch homogeneity. The wide and persistent biodistribution of mRNAs and their protein products, incompletely studied due to their classification as vaccines, raises safety issues
Traditional vaccine's never delivered DNA into cell nucleus.

Pfizer are Doubling Down on mRNA as Well, Making A Staggering $ 43 Billion Bet that “Turbo Cancers” are About to Explode around theWworld.
Last Month Pfizer Stunned the Medical World by Acquiring Seagen, A Small Drug Company that treats Turbo Cancers and Barely makes $ 2 Billion per Year.
The Nature of the Acquisition has Left Many People Scratching their Heads. There is Something Very Sinister Lurking in the Details of this Deal.
Pfizer’s New Acquisition Takes Them from Being Able to “Treat” Two of These Turbo Cancers, to Being Able to Treat Seven Out of 10. Not Bad for A Company Looking to Corner the Market in Treating the Same Problems It is Causing.
