Why Alzheimer's matters from a political lens

This video is fascinating, it talks about a some things that are interesting from a political lens. There's a lot to be taken from this video from a health perspective and they are worth considering.  But I have two additional, not primarily health-related takeaways that matter in a more political realm.

Trust The Science?

The first takeaway, in this video Dr. Benjamin Bikman, a leading metabolic scientist, points out that for decades brain plaque was considered the root cause of Alzheimer's. It turns out billions have been spent on what was either fraudulent or at least flawed data. Decades spent on trust the science. 

Science at it's root is based on the principle of question the science. You don't learn by not asking questions, you instead inculcate wrote dogma. Science has always improved because the field was founded on the principle of asking questions. The science of gravity was once considered locked in by Isaac Newton. Einstein took it further and in an entirely different direction, and even Einstein, as brilliant as he was, was not the be-all-end-all on any scientific subject. So when they told you that the science on climate change was settled, no it wasn't, and it still isn't.  

And when they told you that the Pfizer and other COVID shots would prevent catching dying spreading worse symptoms and that the normal 7+ year clinic trials weren't necessary because all the kinks were worked out, and jab your kids - yeah, QUESTION THE SCIENCE. 

Insulin resistance and TDS

The second takeaway is a little less obvious. Dr. Benjamin Bikman also mentions that insulin resistance is connected not only to Alzheimer's but also depression and a lot of other mental health issues, there is something that comes to mind.  In the unrelated video below, there's an interesting path that was followed on how we got to the obesity epidemic. The timing of that is eerily close to the rise of radical leftism. Is it possible that so many on the left who are depressed, anxiety riddled, suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome, and often just crazy in their worldviews (think transgender athletes competing with women), are suffering from insulin resistance? As our diets changed, we opened the doors to not only obesity but a host of metal issues? It seems plausible. 

So maybe the most important way to ensure common sense conservatism thrives in the coming generations is not redistricting, and rooting out the criminal cheating Democrat election machine, and ridding the country of illegal immigrants of census-padding or illegal Democrat voters. Maybe it's RFK Jr. sorting out the toxic mélange that is the American diet. It sounds crazy, but maybe that's just your insulin-resistant brain talking. It doesn't hurt to listen rather than talk. I think John Wayne said that once.
