How can one reduce the risk of knee #osteoarthritis?

1. Knee osteoarthritis (OA) causes knee pain. It limits mobility, hampers physical activity and contributes to sedentary lifestyle, which in turn, increases the risk of obesity, diabetes, hypertension, heart attack and stroke.
2. Who are at risk of developing knee OA?
*Non-modifiable risk factors:
Female gender and older age
*#obesity: Increases the risk of knee OA three-times. It also accelerates the progression of disease.

3. Knee injury: Traumatic joint injury is a major risk factor for osteoarthritis, particularly at the #knee (i.e. meniscal damage, anterior cruciate ligament rupture, or direct articular cartilage injury). Ref: doi.org/10.1097%2FBOR.…

@topagrar_PL @PolskaIzbaMleka @DINtoday @HighGroundDairy @freshagenda2013 @Eucolait @AnttiJSaari1 @juliajones110 @StoneX_EUDairy @SaschaSiegel_ @dairylando As we have predicted since March, despite huge reduction of #milk production and processing, UA internal dairy use/consumption slumped due to war, migration, and deterioration of population wealth.

2/10
In July we’ve observed crush of UA internal #grains and oil seeds prices due to port’s blockade by aggressor and the eve of new crops harvesting season. Compound #feed index downed to last year’s minimal (incl. sunflower meal traded 0,05 EUR/kg).

🧵We are a group of volunteers exploring existing and non-conventional options for moving #Ukrainian #grains, #wheat and #agricultural products into the #European #Railway Network for distribution to EU #Export terminals, primarily, but not exclusively on the #Danube Waterway.
Why, what's stopping this?

Similar to @Apple, @Microsoft or @Android Operating Systems, #Ukraine's and #Europe's #trains, #locomotives & #wagons operate on physically different track widths.

While having similar functionalities, they don't "play well with each other".
2/
Specifically, a Ukrainian train cannot travel on a European railway (track) and European trains cannot travel on Ukrainian railways.

The width, called "Gauge", between rails is different. Ukrainian is 1520mm wide, while European is 1435mm.

Precios agrícolas continuan disparados en Chicago x las importaciones chinas. Y no es x culpar al sospechoso habitual. Este articulo en el South China Morning Post refleja la enorme tensión y necesidades d importación d granos. Seguid el hilo #foodsecurity scmp.com/economy/china-…
"Food security is in reality a feedstock problem, because China cannot produce enough feed grains such as soybeans to support its large and rapidly growing livestock industry and thus must rely on imports.” #Agriculture #ChinaFood
Between January to March, China imported 6.7 million tonnes of corn, +438% (to the same period last year), according to customs data. Imports of wheat and barley both surged by +130%, while 21.1 million tn. of soybean were brought into the country in the same period, +19% #Grains

1/ Thread: Commodities vs Hubris

Every commodity bull is wrestling with the same question at this moment: I'm seeing the best set up for a mega cycle in my life time, but I also see financial bubbles everywhere.

#shipping #grains #oil #uranium #Commodities
2/
Do I need to wait for a crash in markets before I go in or will I be late? Will markets rotate into cyclical or will my portfolio get wrecked when the hubris in ESG, tech and NFTs comes to an end?

"History doesn't repeat it rhymes "- said so many times it has become a cliche.
We all look back at the internett bubble of the late 90's /early 20's. A tech boom followed by a crash in equities and eventually the beginning of a commodity mega cycle ending in 2008.

Not that they're alone in their folly, of course. The #ECB is outodoing them handsomely, while the #bankofengland is breaking records stretching back to its founding, 327 years ago.

THREAD: After 4 years on my health journey (and having lost >50 lbs.), here are my top 20 weight loss and #health tips, things I really wish I had known 20 years ago. #LCHF
1. Stop the Sugar - Avoid #fructose, sucrose, lactose or pretty much anything else that ends in -ose. #Sugar causes blood glucose spikes, which raises your levels of insulin, the main fat-storage hormone.
2. Limit net carbohydrates to 50g or less daily. Lower is even better, shooting for 15g per meal. Calculate net #carbs by subtracting grams of fiber from total carbs.
