Abstract: Vitamin E inhibits lipid peroxidation study
[Scientific abstract about the antioxidant mechanism of vitamin E in live eucaryotic cells. L1210 murine leukemia cells exposed to oxidative stress induced by 20 μMFe2+ and 100 μM ascorbic acid. Cells grown with supplemental (5-100 μM) vitamin E showed slower rate of lipid radical generation. The membrane active drug edelfosine accentuated the vitamin E effects. Key conclusion: "We conclude that vitamin E inhibits lipid peroxidation in cells by slowing the rate of lipid peroxidation"]
Compounds: vitamin E, edelfosine, iron/ascorbate

6 Antifungals that help you knock out and keep out Candida (🧵 1/10):
#1 Lactoferrin
Lactoferrin is a protein found in milk (especially raw milk and colostrum) with various protective benefits for the gut.
It helps chelate IRON which is important for all pathogens to grow, including fungi like Candida.

Lactoferrin dropped 14.6 cm² of VISCERAL FAT in 8 weeks. The placebo group GAINED weight.
No diet change. No exercise change. One protein.
Here's what lactoferrin does:
- Rewires how your body stores fat
- Binds free iron that feeds harmful gut bacteria
- Strengthens the gut barrier
- Reduces the inflammation that drives visceral fat storage
It's a protein found in breast milk. Your body was built on it from day one. Then your supply was cut off — and your visceral fat has been building ever since.
The problem? Pasteurization destroys it. Store-bought milk has almost none left.
That stubborn belly fat isn't a willpower problem. It's a protein deficiency you've had since you stopped breastfeeding.
My favorite sources:
- Raw milk — the whole food source, the way your body first received it
- Colostrum — the highest natural concentration of lactoferrin available
- Enteric-coated supplement — the form used in clinical trials, survives stomach acid intact
[Image shows randomized controlled trial: "Potent anti-obesity effect of enteric-coated lactoferrin: decrease in visceral fat accumulation in Japanese men and women with abdominal obesity after 8-week administration"]

13. 1. Ivermectin: The Mitochondrial "Uncoupler" and ROS Generator
Ivermectin (IVM) primarily interacts with the system by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and altering redox balance.
Copper (Cu) & Iron (Fe) Interaction: IVM has been shown to induce mitochondrial damage and apoptosis, specifically leading to the release of cytochrome C which is a heme protein whose function is entirely dependent on its Copper and Iron centers.
Manganese (Mn) & SOD2: IVM treatment upregulates the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), this was done in cancer, this would place a massive demand on Mn-SOD (SOD2) to manage the resulting "oxidative noise." If the Mn-SOD shield is overwhelmed, the resulting ROS flux drives cell apoptosis and this would include a change in the tumor as it loses energy, a mechanism being explored for its antitumor effects.
UPE Signaling: By decreasing mitochondrial membrane potential and respiration in cancer cells, IVM disrupts the coherent "light" (UPE) signaling required for cellular adaptation.
2. Mebendazole & Fenbendazole: The Iron-Dependent "Starvers"
The benzimidazoles (MBZ and FBZ) have a distinct relationship with iron and mitochondrial integrity.
Iron (Fe) Dependence: Mebendazole is significantly less effective in iron-deficient environments. Clinical studies suggest that for infections like hookworms, iron supplementation is often required alongside MBZ to clear anemia and restore efficacy. This suggests MBZ may leverage or require the host's iron-dependent pathways to its anthelminthic or antitumor effects.
Manganese (Mn) & Mitochondrial Stability: Both drugs target the mitochondria of the germinal layer of the parasites, leading to decreased ATP production. In mammalian cells, FBZ has been noted to inhibit tumor growth specifically in models used to study mitochondrial genes, indicating a direct interaction with the organelle's metal-tuned hardware.
Molybdenum (Mo) and Sulfur: There is no direct documented interaction between these drugs and Molybdenum. However, since MBZ and FBZ can impact liver function (the site of major Mo-dependent enzyme activity in humans), prolonged high-dose therapy requires monitoring for metabolic "interference".

The HIDDEN reason why you should consume raw dairy instead of pasteurized to grow taller and be healthier.
Welcome in this 20 part series where on this account every few days a new post will be available about an unorthodox method you can use to grow taller.
Part 4/20
Ofcourse milk is exceptionally rich in building blocks for your bones, such as protein and Calcium. But one of the most unknown components of milk, but perhaps one of the most important, is a special protein called Lactoferrin.
Lactoferrin is a protein that binds to Iron, thus lowering levels of unbound Iron which otherwise would generate very strong free radicals.
But even more importantly, Lactoferrin is a miracle for bone/height-growth:
- Lactoferrin inhibits the formation and activity of osteoclasts by reducing the expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL)
- Lactoferrin promotes the differentiation and proliferation of osteoblasts by activating the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and Wnt/β-catenin pathways
- Lactoferrin increases levels of BMP-2, which are proteins that increase bone growth.
- Lactoferrin lowers PTH and increases Calcitonin.
Around 66% of Lactoferrin gets destroyed during pasteurization, which is why raw milk will be a better option for you, or if you can get your hands on it, Colostrum is an even better alternative.
[Reference to research on lactoferrin concentrations in pasteurized vs frozen milk vs fresh milk]
Compounds: lactoferrin, calcium, iron, RANKL, BMP-2, PTH (parathyroid hormone), calcitonin

thousands of hours spent towards researching the enhancement of the performance of the brain, reading papers, and you basically just see how Peat his work come back in all of it.
Peat's fundamentals are key to follow when it comes to cognitive enhancement, almost anything that 'works' has a tremendous effect on glucose metabolism in the brain.
high carb/low fat diet
low iron and low PUFA (iron-dependent lipid-peroxidation is one of the main things that messes up (brain) redox status
thyroid running fast for even further enhanced glucose metabolism
anti-learned helplessness thinking
preventing stress cascades from excessive phosphate (PTH), low-sodium (RAAS)
neurosteroids downstream from Pregnenolone, or Pregnenolone itself (which is also a neurosteroid)
Bohr effect from enhanced Co2 retention/production
the gut-liver-brain axis (limit endotoxin, negative gram bacteria, preventing bacterial overgrowth)
amino acid balance, limiting methionine, cysteine, tryptophan
keeping serotonin at bay (antagonism of most 5-HTr's, like 5-HT6r increases activity in most parts of the PFC)
b-vitamins their role in the Krebs cycle, especially Thiamine through PDH
ultimately it is the true foundation of cognitive enhancement
[reply] acetylcholine itself seems to be pro-cognitive
[reply] have u read Peat his articles about DHA?
Compounds: pregnenolone, thiamine (B1), iron (low), methionine, cysteine, tryptophan, DHA/PUFA
