that's dopamine deficiency - and it's killing your:
- productivity (can't focus on tasks)
- gym performance (no motivation)
- mood (everything feels flat)
in one study, 50 Parkinson's patients with severe dopamine deficit took high-dose thiamine for 3 months
the result? motor function improved by 55%...
translation? thiamine RESTORED their dopamine production significantly
🧵 here's how thiamine creates dopamine (and the exact form that actually works):
(1/5) how thiamine creates dopamine:
dopamine synthesis requires tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) - the enzyme that converts tyrosine → L-DOPA → dopamine
TH can't function without thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) as a cofactor
no thiamine = no TPP = no dopamine production
your brain has the blueprint for dopamine
it just needs thiamine to execute it
(2/5) why you're thiamine deficient:
MODERN DIET destroys it:
→ sugar depletes thiamine reserves (you burn through it metabolizing glucose)
→ alcohol blocks thiamine absorption in the gut
→ caffeine increases thiamine excretion through urine
CHRONIC STRESS burns through it:
→ thiamine is required for ATP production (cellular energy)
→ stress = higher energy demand = faster thiamine depletion
→ cortisol increases thiamine breakdown
GUT ISSUES prevent absorption:
→ thiamine is absorbed in the small intestine
→ leaky gut, SIBO, IBS = impaired absorption
→ even eating thiamine-rich foods won't help if your gut can't absorb it
My wife’s iPhone battery started draining faster than ever.
She was ready to buy a new phone.
I changed 7 settings instead.
Now her battery lasts all day.
how to FIX bad battery life in 7 steps:
1. See what’s actually killing your battery:
Go to Settings → Battery → Battery Health & Charging → Battery Usage.
Check:
– Which apps use the most battery in the last 24 hours / 10 days
– “Background Activity” under app names
If Instagram, YouTube, or Maps show high “Background Activity,” they’re draining your battery even when you’re not using them. Turn off background refresh for these apps.
2. Kill useless background app refresh:
Go to Settings → General → Background App Refresh → Background App Refresh → Off
(or choose Wi-Fi instead of Wi-Fi & Mobile Data)
Then turn OFF refresh for:
– Social apps (IG, TikTok, FB, X)
– Shopping apps
– Random apps you rarely open
They don’t need to run 24/7. Your battery will instantly last longer.
We told you the Venezuela invasion was just corruption. It took one whole week to get the proof.
Trump took Venezuela's oil at gunpoint, and gave it to one of his biggest campaign donors.
1/ But when you learn the details, it's even worse. A short🧵on this corruption story.
2/ John Addison donated a stunning sum to Trump's election campaign: $6 million. And then, as the Venezuelan operation unfolded, his company, Vitol, asked Trump for a license to trade Venezuelan oil - before their competitors.
3/ And then, just days later, Trump selected Vitol for the first sale of Venezuelan oil - at a discount that will likely allow Vitol to make a huge profit when it sells it to secondary buyers.
Eighty-one years have passed since the day a man disappeared whose name is very widely known, yet whose extraordinary story is truly known to only a few.
It is beyond my comprehension how no major Hollywood film or Netflix production has yet been made about him, but I am certain that one day they will.
This thread is dedicated to him.🧵

July 19, 1944. Majestic Hotel - Gestapo headquarters and the office of Adolf Eichmann in Budapest:
“Why did you travel to Palestine in 1937?” Eichmann asked.
“Because it interested me,” Wallenberg replied. “
I believe the Jews should have a state of their own. Don’t you agree?”
“I know everything about you,” Eichmann said angrily. “You love Jews.
You take dirty dollars from Roosevelt…
We know about your so-called passports,”
Eichmann burst out. “They are all forgeries! The Jews who escaped with them to Sweden are all enemies of the Reich.”
Wallenberg did not respond to Eichmann’s crude outburst. Instead, with calm composure, he handed him a carton of cigarettes and a bottle of whiskey.
The gesture was received with appreciation.
(From Alex Kershaw’s book The Enigma of Raoul Wallenberg)
This battle of minds between Raoul Wallenberg, the greatest of the Righteous Among the Nations, and the devil himself, Adolf Eichmann, is one of the dramatic high points of Wallenberg’s mission during the darkest hour of Hungarian Jewry and of Budapest, in the fateful final phase of World War II.
Eichmann was determined to complete his life’s mission - the annihilation of the last Jews of Europe.
Opposite him stood Wallenberg, just as determined to save as many Jews as possible.
2/5
Wallenberg arrived late.
On March 19, 1944, the Germans stormed into Budapest. Eichmann himself accompanied the forces and immediately set to work.
The first deportations to Auschwitz began within weeks and proceeded at a terrifying pace.
Between May 15 and July 7, 1944, 437,000 Hungarian Jews from provincial towns outside Budapest were deported to the Auschwitz extermination camp.
In June, the peak month of deportations, 12,000 Hungarian Jews were murdered in Auschwitz every single day—five hundred every hour.
On the eve of his mission, Wallenberg met with leaders of the Jewish community in Stockholm and received the blessing of the community’s rabbi.
He left Stockholm on July 7 at 1:50 a.m., arrived in Budapest on July 9, and went to work immediately.
