Most think of osteoporosis as a painless problem presenting later in life. With the pandemic, it is now a potentially painful syndrome plaguing younger athletes. Someone very close to [Dr. McCullough] has been hindered by this problem for years intensifying greatly over the pandemic years. AlterAl assisted with his review.
EXERCISE: * PT APP workout –lower body stretch/stengthening (recently added dry-swimming upper/lower body moves!) * 60 minute indoor walk-about
WATER: (2) × (32) = 64 oz (+)
EATS: * fresh strawberries & banana * Actual Veggie brand burger patty on one slice of 9 grain sourdough toast, fresh tomato, onion, lettuce, homemade In-n-Out sauce * slice of holiday apple XL-pie * avocado-veggie sushi w/ steamed chunks of white sweet potato on side

I was sent this lovely photo of corn-crust cranberry cobbler from BNV dude (Brand New Vegan). I’m on his email list b/c I recently bought his book. In the email I could not find his recipe link, so I fed the description into ChatGPT & came up with THIS:

Oh, I love this concept — a cranberry turnover with a golden, flaky corn crust that’s lightly tart, gently sweet, and oil-free. 🌽✨ Let’s make it cozy, simple,and SOS-friendly (very low salt, oil, and sugar).
Here’s my best version for you:
🌾
CRUST
* 1 cup whole-wheat pastry flour (or AP) * ¾ cup medium/fine cornmeal * 1 tsp baking powder * ¼ tsp salt (optional) * ½ cup unsweetened applesauce * ½ cup plant milk * Extra flour for folding/dusting
FILLING
* 2 cups cranberries * ¼ cup water + extra 2 tbsp * 3–4 tbsp maple syrup * 1 tsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp water (slurry) * ½ tsp vanilla (optional)
2️⃣ **Laminate**: Pat rectangle → fold thirds → turn 90° → fold thirds → gently press (no knead)
3️⃣ **Cranberry Filling**: Cook berries + water → add syrup → thicken with cornstarch → cool slightly
4️⃣ **Assemble**: Roll dough → cut → add filling → fold & seal → optional milk/sugar
5️⃣ **Bake**: 390°F / 200°C, 15–18 min → light golden. Cool 5 min on pan, then wire rack ️

Quick Tips for Flaky Success
* Medium-fine cornmeal = tender * Do not knead = flaky layers * Slightly sticky dough = soft, not tough * Mist lightly with water for puff * Store slightly warm in airtight container
“I was pleasantly surprised by a call from Washington Post reporter Lauren Weber, who wanted to discuss a range of topics that have emerged in the wake of the pandemic. […] If and when WAPO goes to press with the interview, you may be the judge of the accuracy, completeness, and scientific accountability in Ms. Weber’s reporting.”

Instructions
In a bowl, mix warm water, yeast and 1 tbsp flour. Let it sit for a few minutes to activate.
Add 1 cup flour, salt, herbs and garlic and olive oil and mix in. Add another 3 tbsp flour and mix in.
Get your hands in there to mix and knead for a few seconds into a soft slightly sticky dough.. Add another tbsp flour if needed.
Gather the dough into a ball and let it sit for 15 minutes in a warm place.
Add a 1/2 tsp oil over the dough and spread with your hands. Gather the dough into a ball and place on parchment lined sheet.
Use a bit of flour to spread the dough into a 13 to 14 inch size oval. Spread it depending on on how thick or thin you want the crust to be. Keep the edges thicker than the center (see video). Let it sit for a few minutes.
Preheat the oven to 435 degrees F / 220ºc.
Spread the pizza sauce on the crust. Distribute the sliced veggies, mushrooms and olives evenly.
Mix chopped garlic with 1/2 tsp of [seasoned liquid, instead of oil] and a pinch of salt and oregano. Sprinkle over the pizza. Sprinkle salt over the veggies.
Sprinkle meltable vegan cheese on the veggies if using at this point.
Bake the pizza for 17 to 18 minutes or until golden on the edges.
Sprinkle vegan parm of choice, chopped fresh basil, and pepper flakes.
This essay draws upon the meticulous work of researchers who have spent decades investigating aluminum adjuvants despite significant professional and funding challenges.
[…]
In the late 1990s, French researchers made an unsettling discovery. Patients coming to neuromuscular clinics with mysterious muscle pain and cognitive symptoms showed something unexpected in their deltoid biopsies: aluminum deposits surrounded by activated macrophages – immune cells that had engulfed the aluminum particles but couldn’t digest them. Some of these patients had been vaccinated years earlier at the biopsy site. The aluminum hadn’t dissolved. It hadn’t been excreted. It was still there, wrapped inside immune cells like undigested meals, creating chronic inflammation at the injection site.
