prime editing (the advanced CRISPR) was used to fix a broken immune system
a teenager with a rare immune disorder just had his DNA rewritten 1/
they removed his stem cells, corrected two missing DNA letters and reimplanted the cells after chemotherapy.
now 66% of his neutrophils function normally.
no major side effects (for now).
this is a world first
2/
caution is still needed, but this is a very promising result
that’s because your mitochondria are breaking down and modern life is the cause.
this is what’s really happening to your cells 1/
you’ve heard it: “mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell.”
they convert food into energy but industrial food is damaging them.
there goes your energy, and your longevity.
2/
mitochondria produce 90% of your cellular ATP through electron transport chains, but this process leaks electrons.
this is normal, but not ideal

UMA: universal models for atoms
trained on 500M+ atomic systems
predicts forces and energies at DFT accuracy
10,000x faster
generalizes across molecules, materials, and catalysts
one model, no fine-tuning 2/ huggingface.co/facebook/UMA
replaces traditional simulation for most chemistry workflows and enables high-throughput design of drugs, batteries, catalysts
makes quantum inference real-time and scalable
open weights + open dataset

your gut is not optional, it's one of the most important organs in your body
it regulates immune function, inflammation, metabolism, and neurological health. if you're waiting for "modern" medicine to catch up, you've already lost.
here's how to fix it: 1/
1. fiber diversity
30g+ daily is the minimum. this isn't your mother's "eat more fiber", it's foundational input for microbial life.
2/
start by increasing 5g per week to allow adaptation.
include soluble fibers, resistant starch, and insoluble fiber from various sources, especially fruit.
3/
it’s low because modern life is designed against your biology and no one taught you how to rebuild from scratch.
here’s the 9-layer protocol to restore your hormonal health 1/
a new study out of Japan just showed how much behavior is linked to genetics
basically showing that fear, boldness, and social tendencies are rooted in your DNA
1/
this is the most comprehensive behavioral-genetic dataset ever created in Drosophila melanogaster (fruit flies)
36,600 flies
105 distinct genotypes
standardized threat simulations
single and group contexts
result:
→ behavior is not random
→ behavior is heritable
2/
in identical environments, genetically distinct flies responded differently to the same threat.
some froze. others explored. some clustered tightly. others drifted alone.
the key variable wasn’t trauma, mood, or social learning.
it was genotype.
3/
your body didn’t evolve for blue light, seed oils, comfort, or porn
it evolved to fight, fuck, sleep well, and struggle
modern life destroys your hormones
here’s how to take them back 1/
your hormones are the operating system of your body.
modern life is the malware.
here's why
2/
hormones are chemical messengers that control literally everything: your energy, mood, muscle, fertility, sleep, and even your status compared to others
