Highlights…Discussed in this video post is a patient’s recovery from vertigo and dizziness by eliminating eggs from her diet, highlighting the importance of simple food elimination as a very powerful, but low tech tool in medicine. Highlighted is the McCullough Foundation’s Report on autism, emphasizing its multi-factorial determinants, including vaccines (and load), environmental toxins, parents conception age, triggering febrile seizures and maternal medications. Stressed is the impact of early life antibiotic use on the gut flora and long-term health, as well as gut derived fungal metabolites triggering some cases of autism discovered in organic acid testing. There is a link between genetically prown poor oral health and brain health. A study shows the benefits of vitamin D and probiotics in reducing migraine frequency and the impact of “digital dementia” from excessive screen time is reviewed.Staying Healthy Today Show – Kirk Hamilton, PACEpisode Summary and Outline: Vertigo, Autism Determinants, Brain Health, and Nutritional Insights (Summary and outline of transcript generated by Otter.AI run through Chat.GPT then edited by Kirk Hamilton PA-C)IntroductionKirk Hamilton, PA-C, host of The Staying Healthy Today Show, shares clinical insights and current topics in integrative and preventive medicine. In this episode, he discusses:* A compelling case study on vertigo and food elimination (eggs especially)* The McCullough Foundation’s Report on autism determinants* Brain and oral health connections* Vitamin D, probiotics, and migraine research* Broader reflections on nutrition, fasting, and cognitive health1. Case Study: Vertigo Resolved by Food EliminationA 61-year-old female patient who initially came for hormone management but had a complex medical history:* Past issues: plantar fasciitis, urinary frequency, weight gain, and severe vertigo diagnosed as Ménière’s disease.* She relied on Lorazepam and Meclizine to manage her dizziness.During prior visits, dietary elimination—removing dairy, wheat, and eggs, was suggested. It was found that elimination of eggs dramatically relieved her vertigo debilitating symptoms.At a recent annual visit, the patient reported feeling remarkably well—energetic, exercising daily, and successfully managing two companies. Her vertigo was essentially gone—until a vacation where she reintroduced eggs daily, and the dizziness promptly returned.Key takeaway: Food elimination remains one of the most powerful tools in medicine. Removing trigger foods—even one, such as eggs—can dramatically reduce chronic and acute symptoms.When improvement happens immediately after eliminating a food, patients quickly understand the connection. Slower changes, from gut healing and microbiome shifts, often take longer and are harder for patients to recognize.Kirk Hamilton personally follows the ProLon fasting-mimicking diet almost on a monthly basis to maintain its metabolic and cancer prevention benefits, noting its ability to induce ketosis and autophagy while removing common allergens.2. The Multifactorial Determinants of Autism – McCullough FoundationA recent McCullough Foundation Report on autism, emphasizes that autism is multifactorial, with numerous contributing factors:* Vaccines (high early-life exposure and load of vaccines)* Environmental toxins* Maternal age and medications during pregnancy* Neurotoxic compounds* Childhood fevers and seizures* Frequent antibiotic use and gut dysbiosisKirk Hamilton recalls early research and conferences with Dr. Andrew Wakefield, Dr. Bernard Rimland, PhD and others, noting recurring patterns of chronic infections, antibiotic use, and gastrointestinal disturbances in children later diagnosed with autism.Core argument: Autism likely arises from multiple interacting biological and environmental factors. However, accelerated early-life vaccination schedules may “tip the balance” for vulnerable children.Kirk Hamilton also discusses early findings on yeast overgrowth, organic acid metabolites, and gut-brain connections, emphasizing that early antibiotic exposure and sugar-rich diets may predispose children to long-term microbiome and immune disruption and enhance Autism manifestation.3. Brain Health, Oral Health, and SleepIn this health letter, new research links oral health and brain function:* Individuals genetically prone to poor oral health (cavities, tooth loss, gum disease) showed:* 24% higher white matter volume* 43% more microstructural brain changes on MRI* The implication: oral health strongly correlates with brain and cardiovascular health.Stressed the role of sleep in maintaining brain health:* The brain’s glymphatic system clears toxins during sleep.* Insufficient sleep impairs memory consolidation and microglial cleaning, raising risks for cognitive decline.* Kirk Hamilton admits this is his own “weak spot” and encourages improving sleep hygiene including his own.4. Cognitive Decline, Screen Time, and LifestyleA study summarized by Nicolas Hulscher, MPH in Focal Points (Courageous Discourse) reported:* A rising trend of cognitive disability among younger U.S. adults (2013–2023).* Potential contributing factors:* Sedentary lifestyle* Nutrient-poor processed diets* Excessive screen time (“digital dementia”)The need to reduce screen dependence for children and adolescents is emphasized, urging more outdoor play, physical activity, and social interaction—key for brain and emotional health.5. Migraine Headaches: Vitamin D, Probiotics, and Nutrient TherapiesRecent findings on migraine prevention:* A study using Vitamin D (50,000 IU every 2 weeks) and probiotics (4.5×10¹¹ CFU daily) for 12 weeks showed a significant reduction in headache frequency and severitycompared to placebo.* Mechanisms:* Vitamin D supports hormonal and immune balance.* Probiotics improve gut health and reduce systemic inflammation.Some traditional migraine supportive nutrients:* Magnesium (RBC level goal: >5 mg/dL)* Coenzyme Q10* Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)* Food elimination and environmental control6. Final Reflections: Nutrition, Fasting, and Repurposed MedicineKirk Hamilton closes with reflections on food sensitivity, fasting, and integrative cancer prevention, noting:* Food can cause any symptom—pain, fatigue, or mood changes.* Regular fasting or elimination diets can reset the immune and metabolic systems.* More research on repurposed cancer drugs, post-COVID health, and vaccine discussions can be found in this Substack health letter.“Until Next Time, Stay and Be Well.”— Kirk Hamilton, PA-CNutrition, Prevention and Integrative Medicine…AUTISM - VACCINES - In Susceptible Babies, Combination Vaccination Triggers Autism.

“War, pandemics, famine—they often travel together. Former Green Beret & war correspondent Michael Yon warns us that today’s energy shocks, fertilizer constraints, bio-ag threats, and information warfare are setting conditions for global food crises. What are the signals—and what can communities and states do now?”Michael Yon, LLCPO Box 66Archer, FL 32618Michaelyon.com MichaelYon.Substack.comAbout - Mission - Supportmichael.yon@gmail.comMichael.Yon@protonmail.com“From Fertilizer to Information War: Are We Setting the State for Famine...”(Interview transcript summary generated through Otter.AI and ChatGPT then edited by Kirk Hamilton PA)Interview Overview…Kirk Hamilton and Michael Yon discuss the impending global famine, emphasizing its macro implications. Yon, a former Green Beret and combat correspondent, highlights the strategic use of famine as a weapon of “unrestricted warfare,” citing historical examples like the Irish Potato Famine and the British Victorian famines. He warns of current conditions setting the stage for famine, such as the World Economic Forum’s rewilding initiatives and the disruption of food production systems. Yon argues that large-scale food insecurity typically travels with war and pandemics, and he outlines what he believes are intentional, multi-front attacks on food systems: energy disruptions, fertilizer constraints, bio/ag threats (e.g., screwworms, anthrax), regulatory pressure on ranching, and social/psychological operations.Yon predicts famine in the U.S., Japan, and Thailand, attributing it to economic and geopolitical strategies. He advises individuals to prepare by avoiding support for harmful policies and individuals while focusing on local food resilience. He criticizes the current organizational structure for exacerbating issues and advocates for a purge of problematic individuals. Yon gives a practical example and suggests that Doc Pete Chambers, a candidate for Texas governor, should focus on assembling a strong team, addressing local issues like water supply and agricultural threats, and purging those hindering progress. He also highlights the negative impact of intoxicants on indigenous communities and the broader geopolitical implications, including the influence of China and the Panama Canal.Key Themes* Famine as strategic weapon: War, pandemics, and famine often co-occur; combatants may target food directly or indirectly (energy, fertilizer, transport).* Energy–fertilizer linkage: Shocks to natural gas and chemical industries can ripple into nitrogen fertilizer shortages, constraining yields. Nitrogen fertilizer shortages are linked to the Haber-Bosch process, which is the industrial method for creating nitrogen fertilizers, and its high reliance on energy, often from natural gas, which is subject to price volatility and supply chain issues. The process is crucial for feeding a large portion of the global population but can also be disrupted by factors like government actions and export restrictions. Recent shortages have highlighted the vulnerability of this system.* Bio/ag threats: Re-emergence risks (e.g., screwworms), livestock disease certification (e.g., anthrax) can economically hobble regions.* Policy pressures on beef production: Regulations, land-use changes, and “rewilding” are framed as reducing beef/dairy capacity.* Information & psychological ops: Narratives, intoxicants, and cultural division are described as tools that soften societies and fragment response.* Demographic & migration dynamics: Population movements can be used to reshape politics and land control (“routes and resources”).* Preparedness is systemic: Gardens help, but Yon argues durable resilience requires governance, veterinarians/farmers at the table, water rights, and border/inspection levers.Practical Takeaways and Action Steps…* For individuals/communities* Build local redundancy: stored staples, water plans, ties with local ranchers/farmers.* Close state roads and conduct truck inspections to stop the diversion of water from the Rio Grande into Mexico (Texas border).* Skills and networks matter as much as supplies (veterinarians, agronomists, co-ops).* Be alert to agricultural pests/diseases; report unusual cases to extension/vet channels.* Identify and purge cowards and traitors from your ranks.* For state-level policy (as discussed)* Assemble a team of trusted advisors, including veterinarians, medical doctors, and experienced ranchers/farmers, to address the food security issues.* Map critical dependencies (fertilizer inputs, feed, processing capacity, power/water).* Use lawful levers on inspection/transport to respond to treaty or cross-border water issues.* Monitor and harden against bio-ag threats; maintain certification status (e.g., anthrax-free).* Protect prime farmland from non-ag conversion; review incentives that displace food production.* Eliminate “woke” ideology from public schools and shut down cannabis stores.* Counter the information war and psychological operations being used to demoralize and control the population.Interview Timeline…* 0:00 – 2:00 Intro & why “famine” matters to individual health and security* 2:00 – 6:15 How famine is used in war; historical examples (Ireland, India, Netherlands, U.S. frontier)* 6:15 – 12:30 “Early signs” concept (Ninomiya Kinjirō (Ninomiya Sontoku) Kinjirō story) and claimed signals in the U.S.* 12:30 – 21:00 Energy, fertilizer, and industry chokepoints. “Nord Stream,” “BASF,” and “Groningen” are linked through the history of European natural gas supply. The connection highlights Germany’s former reliance on Russian gas via Nord Stream and the shift in European energy policy spurred by the decline of the Groningen gas field and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.* 21:00 – 28:30 Food-system shocks: plant fires, livestock diseases, screwworms; vets as key resources* 28:30 – 36:30 Policy/“green” initiatives, geoengineering claims, and information warfare* 36:30 – 45:30 Demography, migration, and “routes & resources” framing* 45:30 – 54:30 China, food security, islands & blockades; Hawaii/Alaska information war claims* 54:30 – 1:07:15 Diaspora loyalties, meta-networks, and historical genocide lenses* 1:07:15 – end Preparedness & governance: what a state like Texas should do; agriculture, borders, schoolsNotable references mentioned (context only)* Historical famines (Ireland 1840s; Dutch “Hunger Winter” 1944–45)* Industrial chokepoints (Nord Stream, BASF, Groningen)* Books cited by guest: Rape of the Mind (Joost Meerloo), The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity (Carlo M.

This was such an excellent and understandable talk by Peter McCullough, MD. He weaves together his personal health experiences with recent medical history and the evolution of medical dogma into our current situation of bankrupting amounts of chronic illness and our fragile childhood health situation of earlier and more severe chronic illness, which includes neuropsychiatric disorders such as Autism. He provides hope if we take the right personalized health action steps and build them into solid health habits as well as honestly study the causes of illness such as autism and vaccine effectiveness and injury. (Otter.AI generated transcript summary and outline of podcast edited by Kirk Hamitlon PA)Overview…Dr. Peter McCullough discussed healthspan versus lifespan at the Wisdom Pearl event, emphasizing the importance of lifestyle choices. He highlighted that adults were not healthier in the past, citing smoking and diabetes as major risks. For children, he noted a rise in chronic diseases like autism and ADHD, linking it to compound vaccination and environmental factors. He advocates for a balanced diet, avoiding processed foods and saturated fats, and stressed the importance of portion control. Dr. McCullough also discussed the need for unbiased research into the causes of neuropsychiatric disorders and the potential impact of vaccines on children’s health.Action Items…* Carefully examine the data and evidence around the potential link between childhood vaccinations and neuropsychiatric disorders.* Promote a fair and objective discussion on the risks and benefits of childhood vaccinations, avoiding political polarization.* Investigate potential factors, such as changes in diet and environmental exposures, that may be contributing to the rise in childhood chronic diseases.* Encourage a holistic, natural approach to health and wellness, as exemplified by the Seventh-day Adventist community.OutlineChallenges in Modern Health and Dietary Choices…* Dr. McCullough questions whether people were healthier decades ago compared to now, considering lifestyle choices and chronic diseases.* He emphasizes the importance of healthy dietary choices and exercise in maintaining a healthy lifestyle.* Dr. McCullough discusses the negative impact of childhood obesity, processed foods, and environmental factors like glyphosates and fluoride on children’s health.* He highlights the potential negative effects of childhood vaccines on neuropsychiatric diseases, including ADHD, autism, and seizures.Health Span vs. Lifespan and Personal Health Journey…* Dr. McCullough explains the concept of health span and lifespan, noting that the difference between the end of health span and lifespan is about 10 years.* He shares a personal anecdote about his wife’s mother, who is 92 and still in her health span.* Dr. McCullough discusses the moniker “Make America Healthy Again” and its relevance to both adults and children.* He reflects on the historical context of smoking and its impact on public health, noting the medical community’s slow acceptance of the risks.Adult Health and Risk Factors…* Dr. McCullough asserts that adults were not healthier in the past, citing smoking as a major detriment to health.* He discusses the prev
Dr. János Szebeni, MD, PhD, DSc, Med. Habil.Nanomedicine Research and Education CenterInstitute of Translational Medicine Semmelweis University1089 Budapest, Hungary“Multisystem Endothelial Inflammation: A Key Driver of Adverse Events Following mRNA-Containing COVID-19 Vaccines. Vaccines 2025, 13, 855” Interview Overview…Dr. Janos Szebeni, MD, PhD specialties are in nanotechnology and immunology. He is the Director of the Nano Medicine Research and Education Center at Semmelweis University in Budapest, Hungary. In his co-authored article “Multisystem Endothelial Inflammation: A Key Driver of Adverse Events Following mRNA-Containing COVID-19 Vaccines. Vaccines 2025, 13, 855” he discusses the adverse events following COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, particularly in the context of multi-system endothelial inflammation. He highlighted the role of the spike protein in causing inflammation and autoimmunity, noting that the lipid nanoparticles used for vaccine delivery are more prone to adverse effects than traditional vaccines. Dr. Szebeni emphasized the potential risks of the spike protein, including its toxicity and propensity to bind to cell membranes, which can lead to autoimmunity and autoimmune disorders. He also expressed concerns about the vaccine’s impact on cancer risk and DNA integrity. Dr. Szebeni’s Background and Interest in Endothelial Inflammation… Dr. Szebeni provides an overview of his educational background, including his MD, PhD in nanotechnology and immunology, and his current position at Semmelweis University. He explains his interest in endothelial inflammation and post-vaccine syndrome, noting his extensive experience in drug delivery and liposome research. Dr. Szebeni describes post-vaccine syndrome as a set of acute or long-lasting symptoms occurring after COVID vaccines, mainly inflammatory and can be autoimmune in nature. He mentions that some of the problems with the vaccines were familiar to him due to his experience with other liposomes and lipid nanoparticle products.Mechanism and Goal of Lipid Nanoparticles…Dr. Szebeni explains the goal of packaging mRNA material in lipid nanoparticles is for more efficient immunity against the Covid virus. He highlighted the urgency of developing a vaccine against COVID at the beginning of the pandemic and the success of mRNA technology for other conditions.The discussion touches on the adverse events associated with the vaccines, with Dr. Szebeni noting that he has identified eight inherent structural and functional features of the two mRNA vaccine formulations applied for people that can be linked to adverse effects.Thus, the formation of the spike protein on ribosomes is not the only a contributing factor to the problem.Spike Protein and Autoimmunity…Dr. Szebeni discusses the toxicity of the spike protein and its role in triggering autoimmunity and causing inflammation. He explains that the spike protein is synthesized in the cytoplasm and can be secreted to the blood, expressed on the cell surface, or processed and presented in immune cells.Dr. Szebeni mentions the debate over whether the mRNA COVID vaccination increases the risk of cancer, noting the possible presence of oncogenic DNA segments in some vaccine lots.Duration of Spike Protein and Treatment Options…Dr. Szebeni explains that the spike protein should be present only in certain immune cells called antigen presenting cells but is found in the blood and body cells due to a deviation from the natural immunogenicity process.Conclusion and Personal Opinion…Dr. Szebeni emphasizes the need for a better understanding of the mechanism behind the vaccine’s adverse effects and the importance of developing the mRNA technology in a safer manner.The discussion concludes with Dr. Szebeni expressing his willingness to share ideas on making the technology safer but noting that it would require more detailed interviews.Staying Healthy Today is a reader-supported publication.

Dr. Akos Koller, MD, PhD, DScProfessor EmeritusSemmelweis University, and Hungarian University of Sports ScienceBudapest, Hungary and New York Medical College, Valhalla NY, USA“Multisystem Endothelial Inflammation: A Key Driver of Adverse Events Following mRNA-Containing COVID-19 Vaccines. Vaccines 2025, 13, 855” PDFOverview…Dr. Akos Koller, a specialist in microcirculation, discussed the adverse effects of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, particularly endothelial inflammation caused by the spike protein. He noted that a healthy microcirculation is crucial for recovery from COVID-19 and vaccines. The spike protein from mRNA vaccines is more pathogenic than the natural Covid virus, as it persists longer and can degrade the endothelial glycocalyx, leading to inflammation and vascular injury. Dr. Koller suggested that exercise and products that help restore the glycocalyx might be beneficial in those with post vaccine syndrome (PVS). He also highlighted the individual variability in vaccine responses and the need for personalized medical guidance regarding vaccination and vaccine types.Things To Be Explored…* Supplements that can help restore glycocalyx, which protect the endothelium from circulating inflammatory cell and thrombus formations and also serve as a permeability barrier.* Conduct biochemical, in vitro and in vivo experiments to see how the spike protein produced by the mRNA vaccines can be broken down.* Encourage exercise and physical activity as a potential intervention for post-vaccination and long COVID syndromes.* Discuss the potential use of blood thinners (anticoagulants) as an adjuvant treatment for post-vaccination syndrome.* Bring together expert panels from various medical societies to review the benefits and risks of COVID-19 vaccines and provide updated, patient-specific (age, gender, race, health conditions, etc.) guidelines.Dr. Akos Koller’s Background…Dr. Akos Koller, MD, PhD, is an emeritus professor at Semmelweis University, and Hungarian University of Sports Science, Budapest, Hungary and New York Medical College, Valhalla NY, USA.Dr. Koller’s background is in microcirculation and his interest in the topic of multi-system endothelial inflammation following mRNA COVID-19 vaccines are highlighted. Dr. Koller explains his background in microcirculation, focusing on very small vessels, such as arterioles, capillaries venules and lymphatics, that support all organs and tissues.Importance of a Healthy Microcirculation…He emphasizes the importance of healthy microcirculation in dealing with inflammatory diseases and viruses like COVID-19. Dr. Koller notes that people with pre-existing conditions like diabetes or hypertension were more affected by COVID-19 and post-COVID syndrome. He stresses that healthy microcirculation, especially the endothelium, as a first line of defense is crucial for recovering from diseases and reducing post-vaccination syndrome.Mechanisms of Inflammation from COVID-19 and mRNA Vaccines…Kirk Hamilton PA asks about the causes of inflammation from COVID-19 and mRNA vaccines, specifically the role of the spike protein. Dr. Koller explains that mRNA technology involves a liposome membrane package and mRNA that produces the spike protein inside parenchymal (endothelium, skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and neural cells etc.) cells. He notes that the mRNA in vaccines is modified to resist enzymatic breakdown, leading to prolonged production of the spike protein. Dr. Koller mentions that individual responses to the vaccine vary, maybe because some people are able to breakdown the mRNA and spike protein faster than others. That is what we should learn.Comparison of Spike Proteins from Natural Infection and Vaccines…Kirk Hamilton questions the differences between the spike protein from the natural COVID-19 virus and the one produced by mRNA vaccines. Dr. Koller states that the spike protein from mRNA vaccines is more pathogenic and can spread throughout the body.He explains that coronaviruses have been present for decades, but the COVID-19 virus from Wuhan was different and caused a “panic” response. Dr. Koller notes that the second or third doses of the vaccine can lead to more adverse effects, and guidelines have been updated to restrict vaccination to certain groups.Challenges with mRNA Vaccines and Alternative Vaccines…Kirk Hamilton expresses confusion over why the spike protein, a toxic agent, is used in vaccines. Dr. Koller explains that mRNA vaccines were chosen for their ability to elicit a strong immune response, but they can also cause side effects. He mentions that other vaccines, like the Sinovac’s CoronaVac (COVID-19 vaccine) that used an inactivated virus was made in China do not elicit as strong an immune response but may have fewer side effects. He also mentions the Russian Sputnik, Gam-COVID-Vac (Viral vector vaccines vs. mRNA vaccines: The differences ) and this may deliver less spike protein to the cell. He notes not hearing about significant side effects (spike protein-induced) from these two vaccines.Dr. Koller suggests that the choice of vaccine should be individualized based on the person’s health status and response to the vaccine.Mechanisms of Endothelial Inflammation and Importance of the Glycocalyx…Kirk Hamilton asks how the spike protein causes endothelial inflammation and whether it is worse from the infection or the vaccine. Dr. Koller explains that the spike protein can degrade the glycocalyx, a fine structure on the endothelium that prevents cells from “sticking.” He notes that the glycocalyx is important for maintaining healthy endothelial function and preventing inflammation. Dr. Koller suggests that restoring the glycocalyx could provide a defense against the spike protein.Potential Treatments and Preventive Measures…Kirk Hamilton mentions products that enhance the glycocalyx, such as those made from seaweed. (Arterosil is made primarily from rhamnan sulfate, a specialized sulfated polysaccharide extracted from the rare green seaweed, Monostroma nitidum). It also contains a blend of fruit and vegetable extracts rich in antioxidants.Kirk Hamilton mentions the potential use of enzymes like nattokinase to break down the spike protein and improve endothelial health. Dr. Koller shares that experiments have shown that restoring the glycocalyx with similar molecules can reduce permeability and edema. Dr. Koller emphasizes the importance of individualized treatment and the need for further research on effective interventions.Personal Experiences and Recommendations…Kirk Hamilton asks Dr. Koller if he plans to get more mRNA vaccines and whether he encourages his family to get vaccinated. Dr. Koller states that he has not experienced severe illnesses and does not plan to get more vaccines. He mentions that his family members have had different experiences with the vaccine, highlighting the individual variability in response.Final Thoughts and Closing Remarks…Dr. Koller recommends exercise and a healthy lifestyle to maintain vascular health and reduce the risk of adverse reactions to vaccines. Dr. Koller stresses the importance of expert consensus in making medical decisions and updating guidelines based on new data. He suggests that the benefits and risks of interventions should be carefully considered and individualized.Kirk Hamilton asks Dr. Koller who he would recommend getting the COVID vaccine, and Dr. Koller emphasizes the need for expert consultation and individualized decisions. The conversation concludes with Dr. Koller expressing hope for continued collaboration and open discussion in medical research.ReferenceLiposomal nanocarriers of preassembled glycocalyx restore normal venular permeability and shear stress sensitivity in sepsis: assessed quantitatively with a novel microchamber system.

Lost microbes of COVID-19: Bifidobacterium, Faecalibacterium depletion and decreased microbiome diversity associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection severity. BMJ Open Gastroenterol. 2022 Apr;9(1):e000871. Interview OverviewDr. Sabine Hazan, MD, CEO of Ventura Clinical Trials and Progenabiome discussed her research on the role of the microbiota, Bifidobacteria, and vitamin C in treating and preventing COVID-19, long-haul COVID, and vaccine injuries. She emphasized the importance of understanding the microbiome’s role in those conditions and most disease states. Dr. Hazan shared her early treatment protocol for Covid infections including hydroxychloroquine, a Z-Pak, vitamins C, D and zinc, and highlighted the challenges faced in conducting clinical trials during the pandemic. She also discussed the negative impact of Covid vaccines on the microbiome (reduction in bifidobacteria) and the need for precision medicine in treating the patient. The conversation also discussed the complex role of the microbiota in the prevention and treatment of autism. Dr. Hazan notes that autism is linked to multiple microbes, each may affect differently in different children. Dr. Hazan emphasizes the importance of balance in both scientific research and personal microbiome management. Dr. Hazan noted some mothers have stated improvement in their child’s autistic behavior with antifungal treatment. Kirk Hamilton PA recalls early autism research involving organic acids documenting fungal metabolites in the urine. Dr. Hazan concludes encouraging a balanced approach to healing and the need for more empathy, compassion, and the restoration of humanity in addressing autism and other health issues highlighting the impact of politicization on scientific progress and human care.Staying Healthy Today is a reader-supported publication.

Drs Hinchey and McCullough Review Additional Products after The Ultimate Spike Detox. Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH, Focal Points (Courageous Discourse), Oct 15, 2025. ***Watch 15:40-21:40 sec:min. NOTE: Excellent explanations of the spike protein from the natural infection and the spike protein that comes from the mRNA vaccine and why they are so harmful, especially the spike protein created by the mRNA vaccine.Summary of This Section (15:40-21:40 min:sec) of the Interview with Dr. Peter McCullough…SARS CoV2 is Different from other Coronaviruses Because of the Manufactured Spike Protein Which is Different Than the Spike Protein Made by the mRNA Covid Vaccine… Both Have Adverse Effects but the mRNA Vaccine Created Spike Protein is More Pathogenic and Problematic with Long-Term Health Consequences.“…The coronavirus looks like it has a crown because of the spikes on the surface. These are called spike proteins. Before the pandemic there were four known human beta coronaviruses that could have caused the common cold. None of those coronaviruses invaded the human body. None of them caused pneumonia. Confirmed by the U.S. House of Representatives investigation and our own U.S. intelligence agencies they admit that a human beta coronavirus was “changed” intentionally with a bat coronavirus and the spike protein was intentionally altered at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China. The ball of the virus (nucleocapsid) is the same, but the spike protein was intentionally changed to make it far more invasive and far more damaging. Very importantly the spike protein that came out of the Chinese lab and the basis for our variations of COVID appear to be completely resistant to human enzymes. The human enzymes can’t break down the Covid 19 spike protein and remove it out from your body because it’s a human laboratory engineered spike protein. The spike protein has been found in the brain, the heart, it directly causes blood clotting. It impairs tumor defense systems P53 and BRCA. Dr. McCullough has never seen such a dangerous protein. The spike protein is far more dangerous than any other naturally occurring protein. We get the spike protein put into the body from the infection and then massively loaded into the body from the vaccines providing an “endless” production of spike protein.Jansen shot’s provided the largest “blast” of the spike protein and probably the smallest spike protein exposure was with Novavax which provides only 5 micrograms of spike protein.With the infection you just get the tip of the spike protein (the S1 segment) into the body but with the vaccines you load the entire spike protein into the body and that really is the problem. That’s the reason why people feel sick even years after having COVID, or the taking shots.The lipid nanoparticles are scientifically engineered to carry Pfizer and Moderna and be delivered right into the cell. The lipid nanoparticles literally fuse with the human cell and deliver the payload of mRNA. Once the messenger RNA is in the human cell, our natural protein creating factories in the cytoplasm called ribosomes, they read the messenger RNA and they start assembling the spike protein. Now, because the vaccines aren’t perfect, there’s little DNA fragments of spike protein that have been discovered. So we generate some DNA fragments of spike protein, not fully mature spike protein. Then additionally, because the messenger RNA is altered, through a process called pseudouridination by both Pfizer and Moderna. They both chose to 100% pseudouridinate the mRNA. It made it fully synthetic. It also can’t be broken down and so it tends to “wobble” as it goes through the ribosomes. That creates what’s called frame shifting. So we have mature spike protein, spike fragments, and “frame shifted” little peptides that are misreading the code. All of that now is in the cytoplasm of the cell expressed on the cell surface. The body starts attacking its own cells and then some are freely released into the bloodstream. So the spike protein is freely released into the blood stream. It tends to gather in threes and trimerizes and twists and then it persists in the bloodstream. Dr. McCullough had a patient who took three Pfizer vaccines and they found circulating spike protein in his blood, as well as circulating Pfizer vaccine, 3.2 years after he took the shot…” Transcript minimally edited for readability by Kirk Hamilton PAC of Dr. McCullough’s interview with Myriah Hinchey, ND (15:40-21:40 min:sec). Myriah Hinchey, ND’s Website Kirk’s Comments:1) Don’t get any more Covid mRNA vaccines.2) If you have had a Covid vaccination get the IGG Quantitative Spike Protein Antibody Test from Lab Corp or get the test if you have not recovered with your normal energy, strength, stamina and cognition since a Covid infection. The goal is to get the antibodies < 1000. 3) Start with Ultimate Spike Detox (watch for bruising or bleeding).4) Minimal additional nutrients would be Vitamin D 5000-10000 IU/d (50-75 ng/ml range), vitamin C 2000 mg/d, N-acetylcystiene 500-600 mg twice daily.5) Get daily exercise and try and sweat and/or do sauna’s.6) Periodic fasting. Recommend the 5 Day Prolon Fasting Mimicking Diet from prolonlife.com on a monthly or bimonthly basis till well or Spike AB < 1000. 7) Other potential therapies with knowledgeable practitioner - Ivermectin trial, Low Dose Naltrexone, low dose nicotine patch, nutritional IVs (vitamin C), HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen treatments).8) Daily Meditation Practice 1) 2)COVID VACCINE - INDIGENOUS NATIONS - WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION - World’s First International Governing Body and Judicial Authority Declares mRNA Injections Biological and Technological Weapons of Mass Destruction.

Note From Kirk Hamilton: As this substack evolves I want to do more interviews. It just takes time. The interviews are there to do at least 2-3 per week, but the time isn’t. Or, I have to give up collecting other data to share with you, or stop seeing patients. The structure of this substack is to have links to the original article/author so you can go there quickly from the title, scan some key phrases/words and sometimes my clinical commentary on the essence of the citation, and then read/hear/watch knowledgeable experts speak on individual topics with in-depth interviews on at least a weekly basis. Many people might just be interested in the Nutrition, Prevention and Integrative Medicine section. The reason there are Highlights, Cancer, Covid Syndrome and Societal and World Health sections is because I personally believe if we don’t address the latter three there will be no need to deal with the topics in the Nutrition, Prevention and Integrative Medicine Section. We may not all be here or be free enough to apply the knowledge gained. I realize that people are being overwhelmed with information from emails, their phones, all the different social media, news organizations and information delivery formats like this substack. The truth is if what I write, speak or video is not interesting enough to the readership then I have to change to what people want or I don’t exist no matter how important I think the topics are. So I am evolving with the times. My goal is to present credible health information so people can take charge of their own lives. Like I had a yesterday morning when a female patient suprisingly really changed her diet, stuck with it, dropped 10 lbs, her blood pressure went too low so she had to stop her blood pressure medicine and I was “jumping up and down!” That gives me joy! To see the patient (or reader) take charge of their own health from information I share with them and do well. But the most important part is just sharing credible information so you can have a choice.That is why I write about bigger issues such has censorship, things that are not being shared by traditional bodies (increased cancer incidence and all things Covid) and topics like mass migration, forced live organ harvesting, violence and war, because we are on the edge as a nation and world society of losing our freedoms and maybe our existence. I really believe, and it is so clear to me, the United States with all it’s faults is the last stand for freedom and individual countries to maintain sovereignty. Without national sovereignty and the freedom to express ourselves were done. Things like social credit systems are frightening like what is occurring right now (and for some time) in Communist China, seeing this concept spread to other countries….and this is coming to a city near you?…. Freedom to express your opinion, ideas and debate and then change your mind about issues…like Charlie Kirk was doing should not have cost him his life. If we lose our ability to speak out in the next 5-10 years, or maybe less, it could be the end of the American experiment. Maybe this audience does, but most people in the U.S. don’t see the destructive forces from within and without that are crushing our freedom. Or truthfully we are letting it slip away. It’s so clear that on many different fronts we are allowing our country to be destroyed from within and from the outside. So to write about health I feel I have to write about some of those issues because if we don’t have freedom…. diet, nutrition and environmental control mean nothing!So I am sure you will see me continue to evolve in my information delivery. But my passion has always been to share good information and let people decide about their health or path. I hope there is something useful you find in this addition of “Staying Healthy Today” that will make yours and the world’s life better. Subscriptions to “Staying Healthy Today”…Essentially it is a free newsletter. I changed the default subscription from $80 to $50 per year or $5 per month. What that means is anyone gets the newsletter sent to them for free (3-4 issues a month) but after one month only those who have paid subscription get access to past issues or the archives. So the subscription is free and you get the the past information for four weeks unless you subscribe. Pretty good deal. Essentially for free. There is a component called a “Pay Wall” which I could turn on with any post and then only paid subscribers could read that post. I just can’t see myself doing that at this moment.So I will say this. Thank you very much for those who have subscribed. If those of you who haven’t but appreciate the work and effort and it’s valuable to you… please subscribe and share. For me to keep this up and do more it would be great if everyone would subscribe. But the beauty of capitalism if a product is not valuable enough to you then the person selling something has to change and create something of value or “move-on”.My greatest two wishes for this information platform are 1) Provide you with good information and you make the choice of using it to help yourself live a better life or not and 2) I provide information that help’s us stay “FREE” as individuals, society and a country… and the latter is becoming more and more important in the coming days and months!Kirk and His Colon Cancer - Quick Update… It’s gone! Clear PET scan on August 13, 2025 (no cancer and no metastases, 8 cm tumor was removed 1/16/25) and clear colonoscopy on September 23, 2025. I have a residual seroma (fluid accumulation over the surgery area) and the abdominal hernia is partially healed. But I have gained weight. I have been able to do more core exercises and my anemia is gone. I still have some abnormalities in my bowels. I am still taking lower doses of Ivermectin 45-48 mg/d and mebendazole 250 mg/d five days per week a a slew of supplements during the week as well. I get and occasional 25 gm vitamin C infusion. Maybe once per month now. In the day from 9/26/23 to 1/16/25 I would get 3-4 vitamin C infusions per week up to 50 grams. I am eating an 80-90% whole food plant-based diet and will see how that evolves. I am also going to do a 5 day Prolon Fast (fasting mimicking diet ) monthly or every other month for the next year (the one’s with the premade soups work best for me). Still meditating every morning. I am seeing patients almost full time and doing meaningful things like this writing and seeing my grandchildren… I am in deep gratitude for this experience. Yes I would do it again to help me become a better person and hopefully I am helping patients better than before and living more of my purpose. I don’t really worry about my own health. I am really worried about the health and survival of the United States as a free country and peace, justice and transparency in our world…. Have a great day and be thankful… KirkHighlights…TESTOSTERONE - DECLINE - HEALTH ASPECTS - LIFESTYLE - TESTOSERONE BOOSTERS - 7 Testosterone Boosters That Actually Work — Backed by Human Trials.

In a draconian crackdown not seen since the Cultural Revolution, book burning, mass-arrests and imprisonment, torture and forced reeducation were unleashed across China. Virtually everyone in China was either targeted or forced to be complicit…”* Forced Organ Harvesting of Falun Gong Practitioners in China Kirk’s Comments on Falun Gong…* Falun Gong practitioners are some of the most Gandhi like people I know. Three words sum up there philosophy, “Trustfulness, Compassion and Tolerance (Forbearance)”.* Falun Gong practitioners are a threat to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) not because of physical violence but because they are truly an example of hope for the Chinese people and oppressed people around the world who are under authoritarian rule.* These courageous people (Falun Gong), especially practicing in China, bring great hope for freedom of religion and beliefs throughout the world.* Live organ harvesting of any people is heinous and unthinkable and if stopped in China (CCP) it will send a message to the world that this is an intolerable practice. If not stopped in China I believe it could directly effect American lives on our mainland some day.* We should as Americans (and those in the free world) thank and support Falun Gong practitioners in China as they literally are sacrificing their lives by continuing their spiritual practice challenging the authoritarian Chinese Communist Party (CCP) while doing it non-violently. They continue to grow in number around the world. Falun Gong practitioners are “fighting” for our freedom indirectly by exposing the CCP’s evil by defying them non-violently by continually practicing and spreading their faith. Kirk’s Thoughts on Dr. Jessica Russo’s Interview… Dr. Russo’s interview just reminded me there are really good people in this world who are informed about this issue and are not willing to let it “slide.” She also sees the bigger picture of where this practice (forced organ harvesting) might go if it is not stopped soon. It won’t just be the suffering of the directly persecuted prisoners of conscience but eventually our lives and freedoms in the U.S. may be directly be effected. The Falun Gong practitioners in China are really “lights” to the world and have moved many Chinese away from the Chinese Communist Party which hopefully will lead to their demise and true freedom for the Chinese people in China and abroad. Kirk’s Thoughts on Charlie Kirk who was Assassinated Yesterday (September 10. 2024)….“When discourse ends, violence begins,” Kirk was fond of saying.On a day when I was interviewing Dr. Russo on man’s incredible inhumanity to man regarding conducting “Live Organ Harvesting” of Falun Gong practitioners and other prisoners of conscience (Uyghurs, Tibetans, Christians…) Charlie Kirk, a self-made “young” man (31 years old) who didn’t got to college, who became a successful entrepreneur, student organizer, author, political influencer, American patriot, educator of college students was assassinated while doing his life’s passion… speaking to college students respectfully about conservative American and good human values like family, having a home, children, believing and practicing your faith. He leaves two beautiful young children and loving wife.Here is really all I want to say about Charlie Kirk’s life. I admired him greatly, not because I agreed with everything he said, maybe 70-80%, but because he wanted to have dialogue with people who disagreed with him. He sincerely wanted youth in their formative and college years to have more hope for their future. To think about marriage, having children, a home, a good job, time to be with their family and practice their faith. I envied the way he could argue articulately without getting emotional or insulting. Mostly I will remember him for asking those students who disagreed with him to come to the front of the line to ask him questions, challenge him and to dialogue! He always wanted the people who disagreed with him to come to the front of the line and share their views first. He felt true dialogue with those you don’t agree with is the only way to avoid violence…I agree.

Shanti Mohling, MD, FACOGNorthwest Endometriosis and Pelvic Surgery511 SW 10th Ave, Suite 907, Portland, OR 97205503-715-1377 / Fax 503-715-2717Shantimohling@gmail.com“Intestinal permeability and endometriosis: a pilot investigation ” Journal of Endometriosis and Uterine Disorders, September 2023, Volume 3,100045 9/2025Kirk’s Comments on Interview…Fond Memories of the Power of Food Elimination…I was very excited about this interview because it reinforced a major belief and long-standing practice of mine as an integrative medicine physician assistant: that individual foods—or patterns of food consumption—can cause virtually any symptom, symptom complex, or systemic disease.This understanding dates back to my very first job as a physician’s assistant in an integrative medicine practice in May 1983, where nearly every patient was placed on a two-week “detox.” The protocol consisted of a green smoothie (with psyllium seed husks and basic vitamins) and daily coffee enemas to “stimulate” liver detoxification. Nothing else was eaten. I remember it well—it was a kind of slimy, green drink.The bottom line was simple: patients were removed from their usual food patterns. Most patients came in with multiple complaints, often linked to unhealthy diets. Or others ate what seemed like a pristine diet but regularly consumed one or two foods that “looked healthy” but triggered sensitivity—such as eggs, sprouted grain bread, sourdough, yogurt or coffee (it could be any frequently eaten whole food…). One person’s health food could easily be another’s source of chronic symptoms.In just six months at that practice, I witnessed nearly every patient experience improvements in their symptoms or disease complex during or after this two-week elimination diet. It didn’t matter what their initial complaints were—almost always, something improved.Working Hypothesis…My working hypothesis is that removing the patients “normal foods” (some offending?) gave the gut time to heal. Most gut cells from the stomach to rectum take somewhere between 3–7 days to regenerate. Intestinal permeability can improve from weeks to months. I suspect that excessive antigen uptake that fuels immune activation was reduced immediately by eliminating commonly eaten offending foods, and, over time as intestinal permeability was reduced. This “quieted” the immune system and lead to symptom relief—sometimes immediately, sometimes after weeks or months on a low “food intolerance” regimen.The “magic” wasn’t just in food removal; it was in the gut’s opportunity to repair itself. Depending on diet and fiber intake, the microbiome (intestinal bacteria) can take months to re-balance which is where systemic disease can be slowed, stopped or even reversed.What Do Food Sensitivities or Diet Have to Do with Endometriosis?…This experience is directly relevant to Dr. Mohling’s research. She and her colleagues found a significantly higher degree of intestinal permeability in patients with endometriosis compared to those with pelvic pain alone or healthy controls.This suggests that food—directly or indirectly, through intestinal permeability and microbiome disruption—“may” play a role in triggering or healing endometriosis (or symptom reduction) in susceptible individuals.The key question is whether increased intestinal permeability precedes endometriosis or is a consequence of the disease. It may be both: a contributing factor and a byproduct, creating a vicious cycle.Endometriosis Tissue: Similar but Not the Same…Dr. Mohling explained a compelling hypothesis: that endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus may originate during gestation. This tissue is similar to, but not identical with, uterine endometrial lining. When exposed to inflammatory cytokines, it can become symptomatic endometriosis in and around the abdominal cavity and organs.Rather than relying solely on the retrograde menstruation theory, this explanation offers a clearer mechanism: physiologic events such as increased intestinal permeability or altered microbiota may drive inflammation that stimulates these ectopic tissues.Kirk’s “Mile High View”…The bigger picture is that intestinal permeability and microbiome disruption may underlie not only endometriosis but also many chronic systemic illnesses. The specific symptoms differ, but the pathophysiology is similar: food (or medication) consumption → increased intestinal permeability → microbiome disruption → inflammatory mediator release → chronic disease.So, while Dr. Mohling’s findings are directly relevant to endometriosis, they also apply broadly to many chronic conditions that conventional medicine struggles to manage.That said, Dr. Mohling is clear: for significant endometriosis, surgery is usually necessary to achieve meaningful symptom relief. Lifestyle measures are supportive but rarely sufficient on their own.Lifestyle Strategies for Endometriosis…In addition to a whole-food diet rich in fruits, vegetables, protein, and cultured dairy, Dr. Mohling recommends:* Vitamins C, D, and E* NAC (N-acetylcysteine)* Omega-3 fatty acids* Magnesium* Probiotics* Palmitoyl ethanolamide (PEA) — which Dr. Mohling was particularly enthusiastic aboutI would also suggest:* Assessing for bacterial or yeast/fungal overgrowth, or doing a therapeutic antifungal trial over 2-4 weeks if indicated by extensive antibiotic history.* Incorporating periodic fasting, such as the Prolon Fasting Mimicking Diet (five days a month for 6–12 months) to reduce immune activation and inflammatory mediators.* Considering supervised water fasting programs at centers like TrueNorth Health Center for carefully selected patients for 1-2 weeks.Kirk Hamilton PA-COtter.AI Generated Interview Transcript Summary * Overview…Dr. Shanti Mohling, an OB-GYN surgeon, discussed her study on intestinal permeability in patients with endometriosis, published in the Journal of Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Disorders. The study found that 50% of endometriosis patients had intestinal permeability, compared to none in healthy controls and 10% in those with pelvic pain but no endometriosis. Dr. Mohling emphasized the importance of lifestyle changes, including a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins, and the use of supplements like omega-3, vitamin D, and NAC. She also highlighted the need for surgery to manage endometriosis effectively.Introduction and Background of Dr. Shanti Mohling…* Kirk Hamilton introduces himself and the show's focus on endometriosis and intestinal permeability.* Dr. Shanti Mohling, an OB-GYN surgeon, is introduced as the guest.* Dr. Mohling shares her background, including her education in massage therapy and her transition to medical school.* Dr. Mohling discusses her current focus on surgical management of endometriosis in Portland, Oregon.Understanding Endometriosis and Its Etiology…* Dr. Mohling explains the etiology of endometriosis, emphasizing that it is not fully understood.* She describes the theory of retrograde menstruation and the role of unhealthy peritoneal fluid in endometriosis.* Dr. Mohling highlights the importance of a healthy internal environment in managing endometriosis.* Kirk Hamilton asks for clarification on endometriosis, and Dr. Mohling explains the process of endometrial tissue possibly migrating outside the uterus and/or the endometrial-like tissue was already present outside the uterus but do to multiple triggering factors caused the manifestation of the disease which could be the result of increased intestinal permeability or the disease process might increase intestinal permeability.Intestinal Permeability and Endometriosis…* Dr. Mohling discusses her study on intestinal permeability and endometriosis, noting that half of the patients with endometriosis also had increased intestinal permeability.* She explains that intestinal permeability can be transient and can improve with dietary changes.* Dr. Mohling emphasizes the association between intestinal permeability and endometriosis, but not the causality.* Kirk Hamilton and Dr. Mohling discuss the inflammatory nature of endometriosis and its impact on pain.Prevalence and Impact of Endometriosis…* Dr. Mohling estimates that 10% of females have endometriosis, which can range from mild to severe.* She describes the debilitating effects of endometriosis, including severe dysmenorrhea, infertility, and fibrotic lesions.* Dr. Mohling explains how endometriosis can manifest with IBS-like symptoms and debilitating cramping pain.* Kirk Hamilton asks about the symptoms of endometriosis, and Dr. Mohling emphasizes the importance of recognizing severe menstrual cramps, especially those that result in an emergency room visit for pain control.Lifestyle and Dietary Recommendations for Endometriosis* Dr. Mohling recommends a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins to improve gut health and manage endometriosis.* She advises limiting processed foods, sugar, and alcohol to support gut health.* Dr. Mohling discusses the importance of a balanced diet, including moderate dairy products and cultured dairy.* She highlights the role of supplements like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, vitamin C, and NAC in managing endometriosis.Role of Surgery and Lifestyle Changes in Managing Endometriosis* Dr. Mohling emphasizes the importance of surgery in removing endometriotic lesions but also stresses the need for lifestyle changes.* She discusses the impact of long-term use of NSAIDs and the development of intestinal permeability.* Dr. Mohling mentions the role of the microbiome in estrogen metabolism (recycling and resorption of estrogen) and its impact on endometriosis.* Kirk Hamilton and Dr. Mohling discuss the potential benefits of fasting and dietary interventions like the fasting-mimicking diet.Challenges and Controversies in Endometriosis Treatment…* Dr. Mohling discusses the limitations of hormonal treatments like birth control pills and hormone blockers.* She highlights the importance of excising endometriotic les

AbstractKirk’s Comments: I was first intrigued by this article by the possible positive health aspect for both age groups but, especially the elderly interacting together. From reading about Blue Zone cultures to my own experiences with my grand children being around youth and young life can keep you thinking and acting younger and challenging you in life giving ways. Then after reading about Dr. Norouzi’s background as an architect and education in urban planning I thought do we really want municipalities and local governments to fund and implement such facilities. I have concerns about governmental waste and bureaucracy and the safety concerns of the young children around adults. I ask about them in the interview. If I was going to have a person try and put together such a facility and program in a private business or municipal setting Dr. Neda Norouzi checks all the “positive” boxes of someone who could do this with multidimensional expertise.First her love of family and her “great” grandparent stories and love of children let you know right off how she values family. After she immigrated to this country she worked in daycare for years. Then she has all the academic credentials for urban planning and architecture. And because of her passion for the topic she is the perfect person to oversea such an endeavor. A very interesting topic.

Sci Rep 15, 24435 (2025) Full Article & Abstract [Below is a ChatGPT summary of the unedited transcript from the video above with the article abstract with ChatGPT instructed to summarize and improve the grammar of the interview. This abbreviated summary was approved by Dr. Glen Jeffery and Kirk Hamilton PAC]Improved Vision, Mitochondrial Function, and the Potential Benefits of Long-Wavelength Red Light TherapyAn Interview with Professor Glen Jeffery, PhD, BScProfessor of Neuroscience, Institute of Ophthalmology, University College LondonInterviewed by Kirk Hamilton, PACHost, Staying Healthy Today ShowRecorded: August 7, 2025KIRK HAMILTON:Hi everyone, I’m Kirk Hamilton, your host of the Staying Healthy Today Show—where we explore the fields of nutrition, prevention, and integrative lifestyle medicine. Today, we're diving into a fascinating topic: how longer wavelengths of light, specifically red and infrared, can improve vision and mitochondrial function.When I saw the title of Professor Glen Jeffery’s recent study, “Longer Wavelengths in Sunlight Pass Through the Human Body and Have a Systemic Impact Which Improves Vision,” I was immediately intrigued. As someone who loves sunlight and believes it's benefits are more than just vitamin D I was very interested in talking to him. So, joining us from London is Professor Glen Jeffery, PhD, Professor of Neuroscience at the Institute of Ophthalmology at University College London. Dr. Jeffery, thank you so much for being here today.GLEN JEFFERY:Thank you, it’s a pleasure.Why This Research?KIRK HAMILTON:Let’s start at the beginning. What inspired you to study red and infrared light, and what were you hoping to discover?GLEN JEFFERY:Great question. About 15 years ago, I started seeing consistent evidence in the scientific literature showing that long-wavelength light—particularly in the red and near-infrared spectrum—has beneficial effects on cellular metabolism, particularly in mitochondria.I also wanted to translate our lab findings into real-world scenarios, which is often a missing step in science. So, we did something simple: we exposed people to sunlight and measured what wavelengths actually passed through their bodies. We found that infrared light from the sun does penetrate through the torso, and we measured it coming out the back. That surprised us—but physicists had predicted it.Then, we recreated that sunlight exposure in the lab using specific LED wavelengths (830–860 nm) and tested how that affected vision and mitochondrial function. The results were consistent: infrared light exposure improved vision, even when the eyes themselves weren’t directly exposed.How Light Affects Mitochondria—and VisionKIRK HAMILTON:So how exactly does this type of light improve vision and mitochondrial function?GLEN JEFFERY:Well, mitochondria are the energy factories of your cells. When you hit them with long-wavelength light, they produce more ATP, the energy currency of the cell. That supports improved cellular function across the board.Now, the retina has more mitochondria per cell than almost any other tissue, so it’s an ideal place to see an effect. We used a simple visual test—colored letters on a noisy background—to measure color contrast sensitivity. It’s an easy metric, and we saw improvements within 24 hours of exposure.Sunlight vs Red Light Therapy DevicesKIRK HAMILTON:Was the light in your studies natural sunlight, or did you use red light therapy devices?GLEN JEFFERY:Both. Sunlight has enormous amounts of infrared light—more than any LED device can reproduce. In the study, we first tested people outside and measured which wavelengths passed through their bodies. Then we created a lab device mimicking those wavelengths and got the same positive results indoors.Clothing doesn’t block the infrared light, by the way—it attenuates it slightly but still lets it through. So whether you're wearing a shirt or not, sunlight’s longer wavelengths can still reach your tissues.Practical Applications: Just Go for a WalkKIRK HAMILTON:So, for the average person—is just getting outside for a walk is enough?GLEN JEFFERY:Absolutely! Keep your credit card in your pocket and go for a walk. You’ll get all the infrared light you need—free of charge—and it’s incredibly beneficial.Even on cloudy days, there’s still plenty of scattered infrared light. Water in the clouds does scatter it, but it doesn’t eliminate it. There’s no excuse not to go outside.Critical Care, Architecture, and Incandescent BulbsKIRK HAMILTON:So how does this research apply in places like hospitals or care homes?GLEN JEFFERY:Hospitals and modern buildings are a problem. Most indoor lighting is LED-based, which contains zero long-wavelength infrared light. That’s why we’ve been working with critical care units in major London hospitals to introduce light sources that enrich the environment with infrared.One of the best solutions? Old-fashioned incandescent bulbs. They produce a smooth spectrum of light, very similar to sunlight, including plenty of infrared. They’re cheap, effective, and much better than most “full-spectrum” LEDs.Unfortunately, they're being phased out in both the US and UK for energy efficiency reasons. But from a health perspective—especially for mitochondrial function—incandescents are far superior.Real-World Impacts: Grip Strength, Vision, InflammationKIRK HAMILTON:Have you seen other measurable benefits besides vision?GLEN JEFFERY:Yes, other researchers in London have shown that grip strength improves with similar light exposure. That’s a big deal for aging populations. Better grip strength means improved motor function, fewer falls, and longer healthspan.There’s also a fantastic study from a U.S. city where they planted thousands of trees and found that residents' CRP levels—an inflammation marker—went down. Trees reflect infrared light. So, just walking through greenery can shower you in therapeutic infrared.On Aging, Vision, and Public HealthKIRK HAMILTON:You mentioned earlier vision and aging. Can regular exposure to this light help prevent vision loss, like macular degeneration?GLEN JEFFERY:Yes, we’ve shown that older individuals experience improved color vision after red light exposure. I did a clinical trial for macular degeneration that didn’t succeed—likely due to patient selection—but another UK trial just finished and showed significant benefits in early-stage macular degeneration.This kind of light could become a non-invasive therapy for age-related conditions where mitochondrial decline plays a central role.Final Thoughts: Simple, Free, and Effective!KIRK HAMILTON:This has been incredibly eye-opening. Any final thoughts you'd like to share?GLEN JEFFERY:Sure. Let me say it again: Don’t spend your money. Just go for a walk. The cardiovascular benefits of walking are well known, but now we know it also recharges your cellular batteries—your mitochondria.And to be clear, I have half a dozen expensive red light devices sitting in my office—sent to me by companies. Some of them have $15 worth of parts and sell for thousands. The science doesn’t require that. Just step outside.KIRK HAMILTON:That’s a great way to end. Go for a walk, recharge your mitochondria, and save your money. Thank you, Dr. Jeffery, for your time, your research, and for bringing this down to earth.GLEN JEFFERY:My pleasure, Kirk. Stay well.Key Takeaways:* Infrared light (830–860 nm) from sunlight penetrates deeply through the body and boosts mitochondrial function.* This improves vision, grip strength, motor skills, and likely reduces inflammation.* Sunlight is more effective than most red light therapy devices—and it's free.* Even clothing doesn’t block therapeutic infrared light.* Modern lighting—especially LED—removes infrared, potentially impacting long-term health.* Incandescent bulbs offer a more natural light spectrum and may support better health indoors.Kirk’s Comments: * Dr. Jeffery and colleagues work confirms my own personal experience that feeling better in sunlight goes beyond vitamin D but could be the energy and well-being enhancement of improved mitochondrial function and ATP production (and vitamin D!).* How convenient that you can get a beneficial ATP boosting effect even with your clothes on and even on an overcast day and you are walking through trees! All you have to do is go outside and walk!* The designing of the new Mayo Clinic building on the east coast that will be mostly glass, and Dr. Jeffery’s discussion about patients being close to windows in the critical care units dong better, reminds me after my colon cancer surgery (colectomy). As I was walking in the hospital hallways and I would sit with my back up against the window and feel the warm of the sun coming through the window and how good that felt! Stimulating mitochondria I bet!* I think of how many conditions and patients could improve just by walking or exercising outside!* It was very intriguing that grip strength improved by those getting longer wavelengths of light.* And for those that have macular degeneration get out side and get exposed to full spectrum light.* It left with me a smile on my face with incandescent lights being potentially healing and how we have tried to do away with them. If I can I am going to get a few lamps with incandescent lights for my home.* When in doubt. Keep your wallet in your pocket and go for a walk even on a cloudy day or under trees. You will still get some benefit from full spectrum long wavelength healing light. Your ATP producing mitochondria with thank you…And you might also prevent a fall with improved grip strength.

* Vitamin D is a critical nutrient/hormone in the prevention, treatment and recurrence prevention of colorectal cancer.* Public health officials usually recommend vitamin D levels of 30-40 ng/ml for prevention (2000 IU/d).* Possibly a level of 30-50 ng/ml for treatment and prevention of recurrence (4000 IU/d).* An upper limit of 4000 IU/d for vitamin D supplementation is recommended by public health officials for cancer and chronic disease prevention.* 100 ng/ml of vitamin D3 or above is considered a toxic range of vitamin D though clinical experience shows toxicity symptoms rarely happens.* Experienced clinicians routinely use between 5000-10,000 IU/d attempting to get into the range of 50-75 ng/ml and rarely see levels in the 100 ng/ml range.* Vitamin D toxicity is rare and can be avoided using doses as high as 5000-10,000 IU/d insuring safety by drawing a vitamin D level one month after dosing at these levels and then 2-3 times per year.Kirk Hamilton PA-CPrescription 2000, Inc.Health Associates Medical Group3301 Alta Arden, Suite 3Sacramento, CA 95825(916) 489-4400 (w)krhammer@surewest.nethttps://substack.com/@stayinghealthytodaywww.StayingHealthyToday.comwww.KwikerMedical.comwww.HealthyLivingforBusypeople.com Get full access to Staying Healthy Today at stayinghealthytoday.substack.com/subscribe
Specializing in Medically Important Remediation since 2014James WeberJW Environmental Remediation Services11440 Sunrise Gold Cir Suite 24 Rancho Cordova, CA 95742 916-540-8595 / https://www.jwenviro.com/james@jwenviro.comBackground…James Weber started in the family carpet cleaning business, which led him to having to deal with a lot of water damaged carpets that eventually led him to remediation of the water damaged or moldy areas. After doing remediation he found that he might get called back because the initial assessment was faulty and other areas of the residence were found to be moldy. This happened frequently enough that led him to start doing the initial assessment himself so as not to waste time and come back and treat more undiscovered mold. Therefore he became involved in not only the remediation or fixing of the mold problem but also the discovery of where “all” of the mold was. He doesn’t do the follow-up testing after remediation to “clear” the residence/building from mold. That is done by a 3rd party.Medically Important Assessment and Medically Important Remediation…He uses two terms which are unique - Medically Important Assessment and Medically Important Remediation. Both phrases go beyond just fixing the problem but to do it in a way that the reduces exposure and subsequent medical detoxification which will allow the patient to get well from the conglomeration of systems of what is called “Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRSs).” I encourage you to look at the “Resources for Patients” and the “Resources for Physicians” at SurvivingMold.com. Also I would look at the “Biotoxin Pathway (page 6 diagram)” which gets “triggered” in genetically mold sensitive patients which can result in a wide variety of multiple debilitating symptoms from different organ systems.How to Test and Which Tests… The question of if the client should to do “mold” testing is debatable. From listening to James my guess is he would like people to just call him first and tell him about their current situation. It might be cheaper overall for the client do testing after that discussion. The average cost may be around $1500 but that also depends on the size of the house and it’s location which are important factors. The triad of tests that I do (panel #8 $630-675 from Envirobiomics) include the ERMI test for mold, actinomyces and endotoxins is reasonable if you are trying to convince someone there is an issue in their house of toxic compounds that may be making one sick. There are graded scores on each test that suggest the severity of the results. Getting a good amount of dust sample from different areas in the house is important. Air testing and mold plates are problematic and can result in totally missing a moldy situation used by themselves.Endotoxins can be important as these are organisms that create toxic gases around plumbing.It is important for an independent third party to test the house right after the remediation is done. James feels there would be a conflict of interest if his company tested for mold right after remediation. The home or residence should be tested 4-6 weeks after the remediation as well.A big “red flag” for a remediation company is if they use chemicals. James feels strongly the use of chemicals is not necessary or healthful for efficient Medical Important Remediation.JW Environmental Remediation Services (916) 540-8595 james@jwenviro.com services the Northern California area and sometimes will go out of state.* Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Website* Practice, Persistence and Patience - My Favorite.

Highlights…POST SPIKE SYNDROME (PSS)- DYSBIOSIS - BIFIDOBACTERIA -IVERMECTIN - NATTOKINASE - Post spike syndrome (PSS): Simple solution leading to resolving results, five cases report. ScienceDirect, IDCases, Volume 41, 2025, e02278. Zeballos RS et al. Kirk’s Commentary: In this article 5 cases of dramatic resolution of systemic diseasesare reviewed of females 44-70 years of age, two had both the Covid vaccination and cases of Covid; one had the vaccine and no Covid infection; and two had the Covid infections and no vaccine. The five cases had combined diagnosis of interstitial granulomatous dermatitis, polymyalgia rheumatica, peripheral polyneuropathy, drug-refractory epilepsy and trigeminal neuralgia. *** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED LISTENING TO DR. PETER MCCULLOUGH INTERVIEWING Dr Roberto Zeballos is the lead author of the above article from Brazil on this landmark paper on the McCullough Report July 14, 2025. (below)TREATMENT: 1) Four of 5 had 5 days of Cipro 500 mg daily first. The one who didn’t get Cipro because prior to the study period was placed on antibiotics but didn’t tolerate Augmentin but did take moxifloxacin HCL 400 mg for 14 days. 2a) Following the antibiotics was Nattokinase 100 mg twice daily was given for 90 days; 2b) Ivermectin 3 times per week for at least 8 weeks at 6 mg/30 kg (or 6 mg/66 lb; ex. ~130 lb women would take approximately ~ 12 mg daily of Ivermectin); 2c) Bifidobacteria probiotic providing 335 mg twice daily for 90 days (bifidobacter is known to be diminished in Covid patients). Dr. Zeballo does the above treatment 4-6 weeks. Then he refers his patients to his nutritionist. 3a) Dr. Roberto Zeballos’s Nutritionist Phase 1 - Diet: 3 days of raw foods - vegetables and fruit, berries, smoothies. eliminates animal protein/just fruit and vegetables. Phase 2 - Diet next 5 days to 8 weeks a little bit of “protein”, vegetables, raw foods, smoothies, teas.His nutritionist for 14 days no alcohol, gluten (wheat), dairy, sugar and processed carbohydrate.3b) Dr. Zeballos recommends vitamin C regularly increases bifidobacteria and vitamin D sometimes. He doesn’t give very many vitamins. He is concerned about gastritis.3c) Dr. Zeballo’s nutritionist recommends more supplements - beta-glucan, magnesium, selenium, psyllium fiber, bifidobacteria, enzymes, bioflavonoids, macha tea, green tea.4) Exercise regularly5) Meditation6) Dr. Zeballo personally eats for “his body” 5 days a week and 2 days a week he eats for his heart. Small about of alcohol. Takes care of “soul” 2 days per week. Meditates in the sun and exercises.During the pandemic Dr. Zeballos’s medical group treated more than 11,000 patients. Since January, 2023 they observed a “…surge in Post-Spike Syndrome (PSS) case. The number of cases has continued to rise, and we are currently seeing 3-4 new cases per day.” They have treated over 400 PSS patients in this manner with excellent results. Conclusion: This is exciting because somehow the gut microbiota is altered by a Covid infection and/or Covid vaccine (or vice versa), with the implication that the spike protein from either is involved in triggering some type of vasculitis, inflammation or hyperimmune response possible through a leaky gut. The antibiotics may wipe out abnormal gut flora and the reinoculation of the bowel with bifidobacteria helps heal the gut and reduce inflammation. The nattokinase may help break down the spike protein, inhibiting clotting and/or vasculitis to some degree, while Ivermectin applies an anti-iflammatory or antiviral effect. Collectively they heal the gut and reinoculate it, reduce the spike protein, inflammation and immune challenge calming down the external illnesses described. You take these above case studies/article in conjunction last week’s interview with pancreatic cancer specialist from Japan, Makoto Abrue, MD, PhD and his paper Repeated COVID-19 Vaccination as a Poor Prognostic Factor in Pancreatic Cancer: A Retrospective, Single-Center Cohort Study and you can see what a “catastrophic mess” we are making with the continued promotion of the Covid vaccine which delivers an altered spike protein that can “live” in the body for an unknown period of time and cause metabolic dysfunction resulting in other systemic diseases and symptoms.

He did his four years of neurology residency in the United States at State University of New York (SUNY, 1979) and two years of pain fellowship at Sloan Kettering. He is a board certified neurologist and pain specialist. He has been treating headaches and pain syndromes for more than 30 years. * Dr. Burton Altura (professor of physiology) at State University of New York exposed him in the early 1990s to the concept of using magnesium in the treatment of migraine headaches and the importance of ionizable magnesium as the most accurate measurement of magnesium (98% of magnesium is intracellular). 50% of patients during an acute migraine attack had lowered levels of ionized magnesium. 1) 2) 3) 4)* The ones that responded to the IV magnesium and had headache symptoms reduced were magnesium deficient/insufficient. (RBC magnesium <5 mg/dl)* Those who respond to intravenous magnesium are generally deficient. Magnesium therapy generally doesn’t work for migraines if the patient is adequate in magnesium (RBC 5-6.4 mg/dl).* Magnesium is routinely given IV (MgSo4 - easily available, cost effective, and has been used in pre-eclampsia in much higher doses 5-6 gms so it is safe) 1-2 gm in 10 mls of normal saline over 5-10 minutes. * Giving it over 5-10 minutes IV push versus a slower drip diluted in more fluid appears clinically to have a better effect (tapering speed to patient flush, warmth, sleepiness, light headedness, etc. if administered too fast). The possible explanation is a higher tissue level with the IV push driving magnesium into the cell versus during a slower IV drip the magnesium may be excreted through the urine. Always administer to patient laying down. * People who are really deficient feel euphoric sometimes and they feel warm but comfortably so. * This 1 gram IV push (in some patients 2 grams) can be done monthly prophylactically or for an acute headache. Always give IV magnesium with the patient lying down.* Oral magnesium can be used prophylatically and the best assessment for the average clinician is RBC magnesium, not serum. Also the general range of RBC magnesium is 4.0-6.4 mg/dl. You want to get to 5 or above to reduce the likelihood of insufficiency. * He usually gives IV magnesium either in subjects with an acute headache and those that come in monthly IV for their shot. * There are many types of oral magnesium products (i.e glycinates, citrates, gluconates, taurates, oxides, aspartates, chelates, threonate, chloride, etc.). Whatever a patient chooses for oral intake should be followed by a RBC magnesium test trying to get a level greater than 5. The only real side effect from oral intake is diarrhea. Oral intake is reasonable between 350-450 mg/d with no GI upset or loose stools. * Take the magnesium at night can help them sleep. * The best time for a monthly injection is premenstrual for women. The magnesium can prevent a headache and reduce menstrual cramps.* Other pain syndromes that may benefit from IV magnesium are the pain of fibromyalgia, IBS, low back pain, shingles, neck pain…conditions that have low or low normal RBC magnesium of less than 5 mg/dl (optimal 5.0-6.4).* Magnesium is a predominantly an intracellular ion and acts as a natural “calcium channel blocker”. It effects over 300 enzyme systems in the body. It may work in migraine by 1) dilation and relaxation of blood vessels inhibiting or reversing blood vessel spasm 2) The magnesium ion “sits” inside the NMDA receptor blocking calcium’s entry and therefore blocking the transmission of pain. 3) Magnesium has an anti-inflammatory effect. * Magnesium deficiency may play a role in migraines by promoting cortical spreading depression, alteration of neurotransmitter release and the hyperaggregation of platelets.* Other nutrients that may benefit migraines: Vitamin B12 (> 500 pg/ml, closer to a 1000 may be more optimal); CoQ10 with levels > 1 mg/L, vitamin D > 50 ng/ml; vitamin B2; omega fatty acids (omega check ~ 5); ginger; alpha lipoic acid.* Food intolerance can play a role. He states the most common cause is sugar. When people consume sugar they may have a low blood sugar response and subsequent headache. Sometimes he will use metformin. Other commonly mentioned foods are: caffeine too much and withdrawal; sweets, chocolate, foods that are smoked, pickled, cured, have preservatives, sulfites, nitrates; cheese, dairy products, gluten. Any food can if particular to that individual.* Dr. Mauskop is a licensed acupuncturist and recommends 3-4 treatments to see if the patient will respond (works for 60% of people). People who really “enjoy” the initial treatment are generally the best responders. * Biofeedback, electrical stimulation may be of benefit.* Meditation is recommended.* There are so many options for headache sufferers. There is always one more thing to try.

Pancreatic Cancer Prognosis Worsened After Repeated Covid-19 VaccinationMakoto Abue, MDDepartment of GastroenterologyMiyagi Cancer Center Nodayama47-1, Medeshima-Shiote, Natori Miyagi, Japan, 981-1293 +81-22-384-3151 tel / +81-22-381-1174 (FAX)abue-ma742@miyagi-pho.jp“Repeated COVID-19 Vaccination as a Poor Prognostic Factor in Pancreatic Cancer: A Retrospective, Single-Center Cohort Study. Cancers (Basel). 2025 Jun 16;17(12):2006. PDF ( Author Updated 7/10/25)Kirk Hamilton: Can you please share with me your educational background and currentposition?Makoto Abue: First, let me introduce myself. After graduating from Jichi Medical University in 2000, I worked in community medicine for seven years following two years of initial training. Since then, I have worked at the Miyagi Cancer Center for approximately 16 years. During this time, I conducted research on microRNA (miRNA) and obtained a Ph.D... I specialize in gastroenterology and oversee the biliary tract and pancreatic areas. I am currently the head of the gastroenterology department. The academic societies I belong to include the Japanese Society of Gastroenterology, Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society, Japan Pancreas Society, and Japan Biliary Association. I mainly perform endoscopic examinations and treatments of the biliary tract and pancreas, as well as chemotherapy. My lifelong goal is to improve pancreatic cancer prognosis. To that end, I am interested in finding tests and treatments that lead to better prognoses. Conversely, I am interested in avoiding or overcoming those that may lead to poor prognoses. My intention is to provide pancreatic cancer patients with as many benefits as possible.KH: What got you interested in studying the role of repeated Covid vaccinations and pancreatic cancer prognosis?MA: As shown in our paper, the prognosis of pancreatic cancer gradually improved until 2020 due to the developments in diagnosis and treatment. However, despite no major changes in our treatment system, the prognoses began to deteriorate from 2021 and worsened significantly after 2022. This period coincided exactly with the start of Covid vaccination, raising concerns that the booster vaccination was having a negative impact. Under these circumstances, I further questioned the situation where repeated vaccinations of three, four, five or six times in a short period of time were recommended. In Japan, there is a lack of sufficient verification of actual clinical data (real-world data) on the efficacy and safety of repeated vaccinations, including additional vaccinations. In particular, we believe that more research is needed on evidence related to additional vaccinations. We have been waiting for the government to conduct such verification, but, as there has been no progress, we have decided to investigate the effects of additional vaccinations at our facility.KH: What is the significance of IgG4 levels in cancer and pancreatic cancer patients specifically? What does the term “immune suppressor” with regards to IgG4 levels mean?MA: IgG4, one of the subclasses of IgG, has attracted attention due to its role in allergic reactions and autoimmune diseases. IgG4-related diseases are a group of diseases characterized by the infiltration of organs with IgG4-positive plasma cells and lymphocytes, accompanied by fibrosis. In the field of pancreatic diseases, these diseases are of interest due to the need to differentiate them from cancer through imaging, as well as their association with cancer. In healthy individuals, IgG4 accounts for only a few percent of all IgGs. The Fc region of IgG4 is characterized by its inability to activate complement C1q and its low binding affinity for Fcγ receptors. This property of IgG4 suppresses excessive Fcγ receptor-mediated immune responses. Furthermore, IgG4 is thought to exert anti-inflammatory effects by becoming a functional unit through Fab arm exchange. Production of IgG4 is induced by antigen stimulation and Th2-type cytokines, such as IL-4 and IL-13. It has also been reported that activation of IL-10-producing regulatory T cells in a Th2-dominant environment further promotes IgG4 production. Thus, high levels of IgG4 suggest that the organism may be shifting toward immunosuppression and anti-inflammation.KH: When you say “spike-specific” IgG4 levels I am assuming you are referring to the spike protein? Why only measure “spike-specific” IgG4 levels? Why not also measure the nucleocapsid IgG4 levels to the SARSCov2 virus?MA: In our paper, “spike-specific” means “spike protein-specific”. This study did not consider nucleocapsid proteins. These proteins are important for studying antibody dynamics, including the effects of infection, and they may further clarify the relationship between vaccines and the immune response. In this study, we examined the prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients who received repeated vaccinations. Our focus was on the impact of repeated vaccination rather than infection. Previous studies have reported that repeated mRNA vaccination increases spike protein-specific IgG4. The aim of this study was to validate this finding and determine whether there is a relationship between IgG4 and the poor prognosis of pancreatic cancer. Based on these results, spike-specific IgG4 alone was sufficient for evaluation, and nucleocapsid protein was not measured. However, nucleocapsid proteins may provide additional insight, and this study is a topic for future investigation.KH: Is the spike protein the “toxic,” “inflammatory” or “procarcinogenic” component of the Covid vaccination/booster?MA: The mRNA-LNP platform produces spike proteins and stimulates the production of antibodies. Our study showed that individuals who received three or more doses of the mRNA vaccine had elevated IgG4 levels. The shift to IgG4 is notable for its immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory properties, and it is an active area of research. Some hypothesize that this response may be due to, or contribute to, excessive or prolonged immune activation. Conversely, others suggest that it is a mechanism of immune tolerance to repeated exposure to the antigen. The precise clinical significance of IgG4 elevation after multiple vaccinations and the role of spike proteins in the potential inflammatory process are topics for future research. Mentioning the "toxicity" and "carcinogenicity" of spike proteins in this study may be difficult. Nevertheless, concerns have been reported about the organ-damaging properties of the spike protein, including its effects on the heart, blood vessels, nerves, and ovaries. Regarding carcinogenicity, some experts are concerned about SV40 contamination, estrogen receptor effects, and effects on tumor suppressor genes. We believe these concerns require further validation.KH: Can you tell us a little bit about your study and the basic results?MA: In our study, when we investigated prognosis in overall survival of pancreatic cancer, we found that those who received 3 or more COVID-19 vaccinations had significantly shorter survival. And when we investigated IgG4 among them, we found that IgG4 was elevated in patients who had received three or more vaccinations, again indicating a poor prognosis (IgG4 was particularly elevated in patients with short prognoses, such as those who died within 90 days). Additionally, regulatory T cells were also prominent in cancer cells of frequent vaccinators and those with high IgG4 levels. It was suggested that frequent vaccinations may lead to immune evasion of cancer, creating an environment conducive to cancer growth. We further investigated the relationship between spike-specific IgG4 and total IgG4. The results showed that spike-specific IgG4 increased markedly with increasing vaccination frequency. Spike-specific IgG4 was positively correlated with total IgG4, and those with elevated spike-specific IgG4 also tended to have higher total IgG4 levels. In other words, repeated mRNA vaccination over a short period of time tended to elevate IgG4, suggesting that the immune balance may have shifted toward suppression. However, this is a single-center, retrospective cohort study with a limited number of cases. Therefore, we believe that further large-scale validation and discussion are needed. We hope that our paper will serve as a starting point.KH: In your opinion should Covid boosters not be recommended in pancreatic cancer patients? How about cancer patients in general? Should they get Covid vaccinations, boosters or initial injections?MA: Based on the results of this study, I would personally be reluctant to recommend short-term, repeated vaccination for all solid tumors, including pancreatic cancer. Our findings may be applicable to many cancer patients. However, our results are based on a single hypothesis from a single-center, retrospective cohort study and are open to further discussion. Public health agencies continue to make recommendations for cancer patients, and we refer readers to these agencies for comprehensive reviews. To date, the benefits have been considered to outweigh the risks. Nevertheless, breakthrough infections following vaccination are now common, and the virus has been attenuated. The number of peer-reviewed papers on various adverse effects is also increasing. For better public health policy, we believe that the efficacy and safety of vaccines need to be reexamined and debated.KH: There has been a term called “turbo cancers” in public social media circles associated with the Covid vaccines. Meaning more cancers occurring in younger patients, with faster progression, or quicker recurrence of cancers and more rapid progression to death in patients with prior cancers. Might this above observation, the elevated IgG4 spike specific antibody levels in cancer patients with more rapid progression, be a cause of these “turbo cancers” and a sound reason not to get further Covid immunizations?MA: Due to the risk of myocarditis and the low severity of
