Long-Term Aspartame Administration Leads to Fibrosis, Inflammasome Activation, and Gluconeogenesis Impairment in the Liver of Mice
Simple Summary Aspartame is an artificial sweetener used in foods and beverages worldwide to prevent increasing obesity and diabetes mellitus, acting as a tool to help the control of caloric intake. However, its chronic intake is controversial since it has been linked to some adverse effects including oxidative stress, inflammation, and liver damage through mechanisms…

Rather than medical killing being subsumed to war, the war ‘itself was subsumed to the vast biomedical vision of which “euthanasia” was a part.’
The genetic and racial health or ‘purity’ of the Volk was as integral and inseparable a part of the scheme for eastern conquest as the destruction of Bolshevism, the desire for Lebensraum or the drive for raw materials, a master thread in a closely woven comprehensively Germanic ‘system’. At the psychic level it was probably…

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8042911/ Abstract Background Aspartame is one of the world’s most widely used artificial sweeteners and is an ingredient in more than 5000 food products globally. A particularly important use is in low-calorie beverages consumed by children and pregnant women. The Ramazzini Institute (RI) reported in 2006 and 2007 that aspartame causes dose-related increases in malignant…

Prostaglandins (PG)
The prostaglandins (PG) are a group of physiologically active lipid compounds called eicosanoids “Eicosanoid Synthesis and Metabolism: Prostaglandins, Thromboxanes, Leukotrienes, Lipoxins”. themedicalbiochemistrypage.org. Retrieved 2018-09-21. having diverse hormone-like effects in animals. Prostaglandins have been found in almost every tissue in humans and other animals. They are derived enzymatically from the fatty acid arachidonic acid. Ricciotti E, FitzGerald GA (May 2011). “Prostaglandins and inflammation”. Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology. 31 (5): 986–1000. doi:10.1161/ATVBAHA.110.207449. PMC 3081099. PMID 21508345. Every prostaglandin contains 20 carbon atoms, including…

The drug phencyclidine (PCP or ‘Angel Dust’) antagonizes glutamic acid non-competitively at the NMDA receptor
The drug phencyclidine (more commonly known as PCP or ‘Angel Dust’) antagonizes glutamic acid non-competitively at the NMDA receptor. For the same reasons, dextromethorphan and ketamine also have strong dissociative and hallucinogenic effects. Acute infusion of the drug LY354740 (also known as eglumegad, an agonist of the metabotropic glutamate receptors2 and 3) resulted in a marked diminution of yohimbine-induced stress response in bonnet macaques (Macaca radiata); chronic oral administration of LY354740 in those animals led to markedly reduced baseline cortisol levels…

Oxalyldiaminopropionic acid (ODAP) is a structural analogue of the neurotransmitter glutamate found in the grass pea Lathyrus sativus
Oxalyldiaminopropionic acid (ODAP) is a structural analogue of the neurotransmitter glutamate found in the grass pea Lathyrus sativus. It is the neurotoxin responsible for the motor neuron degeneration syndrome lathyrism.

The sweet pea, Lathyrus odoratus, is a flowering plant in the genus Lathyrus in the family Fabaceae (legumes), native to Sicily, southern Italy and the Aegean Islands. It is an annual climbing plant, growing to a height of 1–2 metres (3 ft 3 in – 6 ft 7 in), where suitable support is available. The leaves are pinnate with two leaflets and a terminal tendril, which twines around supporting plants and structures, helping the sweet pea to climb. In…

Freemartins
A freemartin or free-martin (sometimes martin heifer) is an infertile female cattle with masculinized behavior and non-functioning ovaries.[1] Phenotypically, the animal appears female, but various aspects of female reproductive development are altered due to acquisition of anti-Müllerian hormone from the male twin.[2] Genetically, the animal is chimeric: karyotypy of a sample of cells shows XX/XY chromosomes. The animal originates as a female (XX), but acquires the male (XY) component in utero by exchange of…
