You've been lied to.

Big Pharma doesn’t want you healing yourself for this cheap.

9 reasons Turmeric might be the most underrated medicine on Earth:

1. Reduces chronic inflammation Image
The component behind Turmeric's power: Curcumin.

Curcumin blocks NF-kB, the molecule that triggers inflammation.

Chronic inflammation is linked to:

Heart disease, depression, and even cancer.

Here's 8 more incredible benefits:
2. Boosts brain function

Curcumin increases BDNF (a brain growth hormone).

Higher BDNF = sharper memory, better focus, and protection against Alzheimer’s.

It even crosses the blood-brain barrier.

Only a few compounds can do this.
3. Improves mood & mental health

In a 2014 study, curcumin was as effective as Prozac in treating depression.

It boosts serotonin & dopamine, and lowers neuroinflammation.

This isn’t “alternative medicine” , it’s evidence-based plant medicine.
4. Supports gut health

Curcumin helps heal the gut lining and reduce intestinal inflammation.

Used to manage:

- IBS
- Leaky gut
- Ulcerative colitis

Better gut = better immunity, mood, and energy.
5. Protects the heart

Curcumin improves endothelial function (your artery lining)

This reduces:

- Blood pressure
- Plaque buildup
- Heart attack risk

A 2012 study found curcumin rivaled exercise for vascular health.
6. Relieves joint pain

Curcumin blocks COX-2 enzymes.

The same ones targeted by ibuprofen (but without the side effects).

Great for arthritis, sports recovery, and long-term inflammation.
7. Fights oxidative stress

Curcumin is a powerful antioxidant.

It neutralizes free radicals and boosts your body’s own antioxidant systems.

- Slower aging
- Less cellular damage
- Better detox support
8. May help prevent cancer

Early research shows curcumin may:

- Inhibit tumor growth
- Trigger cell de@th in damaged cells
- Cut off blood supply to cancer cells

It’s not a silver bullet, but it’s a potent preventive compound.
Most people don’t feel the benefits because of poor absorption.

You need:

- Curcumin + black pepper (piperine)(boosts absorption by 2000%)
- Or a liposomal / phytosome form (fats)

Without these, your body won’t absorb it effectively.
Curcumin won’t fix everything overnight.

But it’s backed by over 20,000 studies — and it's been healing people for 3,000 years.

Use it consistently. Combine it with lifestyle changes.

Let food and roots be your medicine.
Over 21% of the world battles diabetes, and countless others are on the edge.

Stop dumping a load of medicines inside you everyday.

Learn to cure yourself naturally, without harming your body with chemicals.

In 2003, LEGO was bankrupt.

They were $800 million in debt, losing $1 million every day, and shops were closing everywhere.

Then ONE desperate move changed everything… Today, they're worth $10B+.

Here's how they pulled off the greatest comeback in business history:🧵 Image
In 1932, LEGO started as a small Danish workshop founded by Ole Kirk Christiansen.

Initially, they produced wooden toys. By 1958, they patented their iconic plastic bricks.

Success came easy, and followed for decades.

Until things began to unravel….
In the 1990s, LEGO lost focus.

They expanded into theme parks and clothing.

They created elaborate sets with unique pieces, losing sight of their simple brick design.

Complexity skyrocketed and so did the cost. Meanwhile, profits nosedived.

The woman who healed what medicine can't:

Gladys McGarey.

The 103-year-old doctor once said true healing comes from within, not drugs.

Here are her 7 forgotten laws for optimal health and longevity: 🧵 Image
1. Love as medicine

Science has shown that holding onto negative emotions will eventually make us sick.

She believes that feelings of love and happiness relax your nervous system, reduce stress, and promote healing & youth.

You can choose health by choosing to let go pain from your heart:
2. Trust in God

Gladys claimed we can heal physically and mentally using God-given resources: food, community and our brains.

She tought that trust in God can activate the body’s natural healing abilities by reducing fear, stress, and resistance.

This inner toolkit helps us overcome any illness and stay young.

All the LIES society had told you

(That are holding you back)

Life changing thread 🧵 Image
1. Being average is not bad

As a man you are born to be a warrior and being average should not be an option for you,

Your parents have sacrificed half of their lives for you.

Why can't you sacrifice 5 years for them,

And transform yourself into a beast.
2. You don't need money to stay happy

Don't listen to those people who think money can't buy happiness,

It can solve 98% of problems in your life.

You can give your parents, your wife and your kids,

Their dream life that they deserve.

Meet Paul Saladino.

The MD who goes against everything Mainstream Health Advice taught you.

Here are his top 8 lessons for optimal health (bookmark this):

1. Veganism is the WORST diet Image
These nutrients do NOT exist AT ALL in vegan food:

- EPA
- DHA
- Taurine
- Creatine
- Carnosine
- Heme Iron
- Vitamin D3
- Cholesterol

You can expect all these problems too:
2. Restaurant food can have seed oils.

Eating out occasionally won't kill you...

But restaurants use seed oils which are extremely unhealthy.

At home, you should use olive oil, butter or ghee. Avoid these oils:

They call him the most productive man alive.

This is Cal Newport.

His books have sold 2M+ copies, he has a PhD from MIT, and he doesn't work past 5 pm.

Here's his secret to Deep Work 🧵 Image
Deep work involves using intense, distraction-free concentration to push past your cognitive limits.

Why is that important?

Because the end products of deep work have insane value and are difficult to replicate.
For instance, JK Rowling finished writing Harry Potter after locking herself in a hotel room for six months.

Bill Gates coded the first version of BASIC in an 8-week sprint.

Mark Zuckerberg programmed Facebook in 2 weeks.
