Spine surgeon says I’m right about back pain & treatment


I’ve made videos explaining the most common causes of back pain = which are NOT in the textbooks!

There are some old papers on abdominal aorta atherosclerosis being associated with lumbar spine degenerative disc disease. I figured out that ischemia (& likely gly-phosphate & flouride & lack of vitamin C) appear to be associated with all the common patterns of spinal degeneration from skull to sacrum:

#1. DISH (Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis) = anterior & lateral vertebral body bridging osteophytes (bone spurs).

#2. Interbody fusion = calcification and ossification across the disc space to fuse the vertebral bodies.

#3. Calcification & ossification of the posterior disc & the posterior longitudinal ligament = OPLL (Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament).

#4. Baastrup’s disease = ossific fusion of the posterior spinous processes. Why? B/c failure of the outer disc = annulus fibrosis

Then there is abnormal motion = segmental instability. Then the spine proprioceptors notice this. The spine responds by trying to fuse the segment.

Low fat plant foods increase blood flow to the spine b/c have potassium, magnesium, nitrates (precursors to nitric oxide), antioxidants, vitamin C (needed for proper collagen synthesis).

SAD diet = high fat & high sodium = decreased blood flow to spine.

Sad diet has more GP = appears to damage collagen.

Tap water has F- (flouride) = appears to damage collagen of spine ligaments.

Excess stress causes hypertension & increased blood viscosity = promotes atherosclerosis.

I Was An MIT Educated Neurosurgeon Now I’m Unemployed And Alone In The M…

I recommend that you click on youtube gear and increase speed to 1.25, or 1.5 speed.

In summary, Gooby, a former neurosurgeon with 20 years of training and experience, left his career due to dissatisfaction and ethical concerns about the effectiveness of his work.
He discovered that lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, and stress management were more crucial for patients’ recovery than surgeries, which often did not address underlying issues.

Gooby struggled with the realization that the medical system was not set up to promote true healing, which led to ethical conflicts and a sense of being stuck in a job he no longer believed in.

With his wife’s support, he decided to quit his job, despite having no clear plan for the future, to avoid continuing a life that was making him unhappy.

He started a YouTube channel to document his hikes and time spent with his dog, finding solace in nature and aiming to cherish the moments with his pet while exploring new possibilities for his life.
