It isn't motivated politically. It just seems to be true and declaring them toxic seems like an error. Anyway, give me a better explanation why people don't look like they did only a few decades ago.

The reason why I think so is that the versions of proteins with heavy metals seem to be superior to those with the supposedly "correct" metal, as well as the heavy metal being extremely strongly preferred by the metabolism. In the

There realy wasn't. Engines switched to fuel injection, which made the octane number less critical, and catalytic converters were mandated that made lead destructive to the car itself.

The error with lead was the opposite one. It was a moral panic that's lead to the current health crisis, both mental and physical. People need heavy metals, they are essential.

The inability to burn calories because of nutrient deficiencies is the biggest flaw of CICO. You just won't burn more than your metabolism is capable of burning no matter how hard you try. You can't will yourself to use energy tha

Lead deficiency makes animals both sedentary and depressed. Somebody fucked up big time.

Smartphone cameras are nowhere near analog photos, there is just no way to make a good camera so small.

When you have a revolving door of employees, the job sucks in some way and people leave for places that suck less. You have two ways to solve this problem: 1. Figure out what makes your employees keep leaving. 2. Hire people who are not goo

Lead is needed for the brain. The person is fully there (in fact more than before) they only stop uncontrollably reacting to everything, and stand straight, instead of being all wobbly.

That's just wishful thinking. The costs on health could be massive if lead is essential. (and it very likely is)

Why did the most enormous progress happen when this poisoning was widespread? And it wasn't only once but at least twice: In Ancient Rome lead was also widely used. The whole idea of "chronic toxicity" is bunk. It will even

Wärtsilä 31, which claims to be the most efficient engine ever built, claims 167.7g/kWh. Diesel's engine used 317g/kWh. So the amount of fuel used has not even halved in more than a century.

I actually looked it up. A late 19th century engine had a 26% efficiency. 1960's engines had ~34% efficiency and in the 2010's it was ~43%. So the same fuel consumption would give you 26HP in 1900, 34HP in 1960, and 43HP today.

The only major "improvement" has been the ability to cheat the tests and pass the regulations, because those who made them didn't realize you cannot dramatically improve such an old technology. >The power output of an engi

Diesel engines have been around for 130 years. Any improvements that could be made were made decades ago. I don't think you need a tractor for fruit farming.

Lower insulin is good. Some of these proteins are targeted by Rapamycin. The glucose transports are increased, (GLUT3 is the one that supplies axons) and the rats weighed less.

Heavy metal toxicity is some sort of error. Lead, in particular, is required for glucose transport into axons,the failure of which leads to synapse loss and mental illness.

by Gauge_Irrahphe 5y ago
It's from the lack of heavy metals - lead is necessary for transporting glucose to the axon, and its deficiency leads to massive synapse loss and resulting mental illness. The data that supposedly prove heavy metal toxicity are extreme

Why not just pair them with an engine? If they win they are cheating.
