Dr. Lane’s Thoughts LXII
1) That’s a lot of stoned people, potentially, but nowhere as many as those who contend on a regular basis with gallstones (25 million Americans), kidney stones (33 million at one time in their life) or even bladder stones (most common in men ages 50 and older). And then, there are stones on your tonsils (tonsilloliths) that affect more than 8% of folks with tonsils; prostate stones (the size of a sesame seed); and pancreas stones (they come from the gallbladder through bile ducts and inflame the pancreas). You can even get them in your nose (from having a foreign object lodged there, say a bean, as a child, and eventually minerals like calcium, magnesium and iron clustering on it), or your mouth (where they block saliva glands).
What do these all have in common? They may signal insufficient hydration and a lousy diet, lacking in fresh veggies and fruit.
Smart moves? Drink enough water to never feel thirsty. Eat nuts daily. Increase fiber consumption. Reduce sodium intake. Skip vitamin C supplements, eat calcium-rich foods, ditch animal fats. Plus, to avoid tonsil stones: Brush and floss regularly — brushing the front and back of your tongue, too — and use a water pick; gargle with salt water after eating (don’t swallow it).
2) Researchers from Israel recently tracked 194 adults, ages 73 to 84, who were going through rehabilitation for osteoporotic fractures or stroke. They found that how those folks thought about their subjective age (“I feel like I’m still 55”) was the strongest predictor of positive rehabilitation outcomes. And it made a positive difference, even for folks who were older or had additional health conditions to contend with.
Other studies reinforce those findings. A 2018 study found that older adults who felt younger than their age had thicker brain matter and less age-related brain deterioration. And a 2021 study of folks ages 40 to 95 found that having a younger subjective age protects you from age-related functional decline.
What does it take to have a younger-than-your-years attitude? It’s created by how you approach every day, physically and psychologically. Staying engaged, always learning, and having new experiences create a positive, youthful attitude. Making sure you eat a plant-based, minimally refined diet that includes some salmon and ocean trout and getting plenty of physical exercise provides you with physical youthfulness. Then, whatever life throws at you, you’ll be ready to create the best outcome possible.
3) I have been divorced from my first wife for many years. I made the mistake of hiring an attorney to represent me who was a criminal lawyer.
I’m sorry, that should have been 2 words, “criminal” and “attorney”.
Before anyone starts with a mumbling under their breath about how all attorneys are criminals, I want to be clear about what I am saying. Yes, my attorney did his best to drag out the case to get more money and the system for divorce in this country is awful but my issue goes beyond the stuff I went through.
My attorney (I was to learn much later, after my divorce) was performing criminal acts while he was acting as my attorney. He specialized in renting a space and then never paying his rent and answering every complaint by his landlord in court until he was forced, bodily, from the space he was, basically, squatting in and never paying to use.
It got to the point, from what I read later, that he spent more time in court being sued by past and present landlords that he couldn’t continue to appear before judges and finally just stopped seeing clients.
He is presently a councilman in Bridgewater, NJ and may actually be the Council President.
Bullshit gets you anything it would seem. I have to write here that he has a flawless second wife (I assume second, there may have been more marriages before or since I worked with him), Russian-born with a MA in Marketing who speaks perfect fluent English. I mean a woman so beautiful that to look that good you need to take a normal photo and use filters and photoshop but she was a live person I saw each time I went to his office.
Since I know something about the Russian mentality and, for some of them who immigrate to the US, their unrelenting idea that Americans are just plump potential victims waiting to be exploited I am not convinced that she was not a part of his schemes. It is possible that he has continued his exploits to this day, always looking for the angle to take advantage of the unsuspecting person who ends up with him in a business transaction.
4) And here’s another huge incentive to get your flu vaccine: Over the course of four years, if you get one flu shot, you reduce your risk of getting Alzheimer’s by an astounding 40%. And the rate of developing Alzheimer’s is lowest among those who received the flu vaccine every year, according to a study in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease. The theory is that the flu shot protects you from inflammation if you get the flu, and that’s key to preventing brain inflammation and dementia.
5) I am sorry that Russian people and their culture have to suffer from the continued subjugation of its government, renowned for its oppression of all things that do not serve its goals of empire-building. The Russian state has no use for Russian culture unless it can be made to serve the state. Soviet power wanted to give itself an air of humanity and righteousness, so it built monuments to Russian writers.
Before anything else, it was a slave empire where the Russian people were forced to endure and suffer the most, first under their czar and then under their police state. The Russian empire exists not for Russia’s people but for itself. It may be the only order that the people understand – a police state of people spying and reporting on other people for their own enrichment but under the banner of community safety. Failure to continue this state of order may be the basis for future anarchy. The Russian people see other countries that just run without this internal subjugation as weak and easily intimidated because the Russian government tells them that these other countries are parasites and deserve the fist of Russian might.
Is there a Russia after Putin?
6) I’ve long said that processed meats are terrible for your health — and now a major health agency in France agrees. They’ve confirmed the connection between the nitrites found in processed meats and colorectal cancer. And that comes after the World Health Organization’s 2015 conclusion that processed meats should be classified as a group 1 carcinogen. Little wonder that the American Cancer Society estimates that there will be 106,180 new cases of colon cancer and 44,850 new cases of rectal cancer in 2022 in the U.S. Do I need to say it? “Don’t eat processed meat.”
7) The power of good food choices is clearly revealed in research published in the British Journal of Nutrition. Researchers found that folks who eat plenty of fresh fruit are less depressed and cognitively sharper than folks who don’t. (They also found that those who eat salty, fatty snacks have more symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress.) Getting a minimum of 1.5 to 2 cups of fruit daily (no sugar added) should help your outlook — as it helps your digestive and heart health and reduces your risk of some cancers.
