SummaryNFL quarterback Jim Miller and other pro athletes have used DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) from horse farms to treat injuries that standard painkillers couldn't address, with clinical evidence suggesting 80-90% success rates for musculoskeletal injuries and chronic pain. Despite decades of testimony to Congress and thousands of documented cases showing effectiveness and safety, the FDA has refused to approve DMSO while NSAIDs and opioids continue causing tens of thousands of deaths annually.Jul 19, 20269 tweets♥ 8.7K

SummaryThis thread argues that acid reflux is often caused by insufficient stomach acid rather than excess acid, and that proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) may worsen the problem by suppressing the acidic signal needed to close the lower esophageal sphincter. It claims low stomach acid also impairs protein digestion, mineral absorption, immune function, and pathogen defense, and links long-term PPI use to increased risks of infections, nutrient deficiencies, kidney disease, dementia, and cancer.Mar 6, 202631 tweets♥ 7.8K

We've been exploring how clinical trial participants can control a powered wheelchair — with their minds. Here's how we’re doing it 🧵

SummaryNeuralink has successfully enabled clinical trial participants to control a powered wheelchair using only their thoughts through a brain-computer interface with over 1,000 electrodes implanted in the motor cortex. A machine learning algorithm decodes neural activity to translate the participant's intention to move into cursor and wheelchair commands, allowing them to navigate real-world environments independently.Jul 23, 20266 tweets♥ 7.5K
