“Curcumin inhibits multiple signaling pathways, which play key roles in cancer development and progression. There have been larger, randomized studies showing curcumin works in conjunction with other chemo drugs to more effectively kill cancer cells including chemo-resistant cancer.”

“FTA: > Fever is a response to inflammation, and is triggered by an onset of the signaling substance prostaglandin. Researchers can now see precisely where these substances are produced -- a discovery that paves the way for smarter drugs.”

“Triclosan has also been linked to hormone disruption and drug-resistant bacteria. It has been found in the urine of about three-fourths of doctors and nurses. It is also among the most common chemicals to be detected in streams.”

“Depression affects more than 280 million people worldwide and is a leading cause of disability. Psychedelic drugs like psilocybin have emerged as potential treatments for managing depression.

“A recent study suggests that an experimental antiviral drug called APN01 might inhibit SARS-CoV-2's capacity to bind with ACE2. APN01, also known as human recombinant soluble angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, or hrsACE2, is a genetically engineered drug.”

“28 (49 percent) contained the wrong amount (with quantities ranging from 0.02 to 334 percent of the labeled amount). 7 (12 percent) contained banned ingredients, including various stimulants and several unapproved drugs: omberacetam, octodrine, oxilofrine, and deterenol, and 1,4-dimethylamylamine.”

“The animals also showed improvements in their muscle strength and motor coordination. The rapamycin also caused substantial changes in the gut bacteria but it is unclear how these changes were responsible for any of the health benefits.”

“However, when the drug is given to people with very high triglyceride levels at 500 mg/dL or greater, LDL-C may increase. •The panel's review found that prescription omega-3 fish oil is effective in reducing triglyceride levels regardless of whether people are on statin therapy.”

“A recent study found that autophagy—the brain's recycling and housekeeping system—helps maintain emotional stability by removing old or damaged proteins. Researchers explored how short-term and long-term stress influenced autophagy in mice and investigated whether antidepressant drugs could restore this process.”
