Scott Adams has revealed he has terminal cancer and has tried Ivermectin and Fenbendazole, which did not work. Dr. William Makis, who treated Adams, stated that the treatment protocol requires at least three months and has a 75% success rate. Both drugs are known for their ability to kill parasites and have been explored as potential cancer treatments, though there is limited human clinical trial data. The discussion emphasizes the right of patients to explore various treatment options, regardless of mainstream skepticism.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Scott Adams revealed he has terminal cancer. He says he tried Ivermectin & Fenbendazole. They didn't work. The Doctor behind it explains why...🧵

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

The Doctor? Dr. William Makis. Well known on X for his perspectives on C0VID💉and fighting Cancer with well known repurposed drugs.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Dr. Makis confirms he treated Adams for about a month. But says that the treatment protocol including Ivermectin and Fenbendazole (Fenben) takes at least 3 months.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

He also confirmed via his substack, that no protocol has a 100% success rate and that his protocol which includes Ivermectin and Fenben has about a 75% success rate.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

I'm not going to get involved in the back and forth between Makis and Adams. I wish Adams all the very best and hope he finds peace or health (or both). Instead let's look at Ivermectin and Fenben.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Ivermectin has been around since the 70s and even has a Nobel Prize backing it. Fenben was discovered around the same time. They are both known as anthelmintics. Meaning: they KILL PARASITES.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Ivermectin paralyzes and kills parasites by messing with their nerve and muscle signals. Fenben kills parasites by blocking the building of microtubules (tiny structures that parasites need to grow and divide).

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Fenben is what is called a benzimidazole. Another drug in this same 'benzi' class that is used as part of these new anti-Cancer protocols is called Mebendazole.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

The three (ivermectin, fenben and meben) together with Vit D, Zinc and other forms of therapy have recently been published as potential new Cancer fighting protocols. The manuscript was published in September 2024 in the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Outside of the recent publication on Ivermectin and Benzi's (Fenben & Meben), we know very little about their Cancer killing abilities. That's not to say that they don't work.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Ivermectin has a raft of ways that it potentially fights and kills cancer: ✅Apoptosis (programmed cell death) ✅Autophagy (tumor suppression via cell recycling) ✅Pyroptosis (inflammatory form of programmed cell death)

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Fenben and Meben stop cancer in other ways: ✅Disrupting microtubules (essential for cell division) ✅Starves cancer cells through glucose uptake ✅Triggering apoptosis (similar to Ivermectin)

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

But how, where and when did all of this begin? Ivermectin and Benzi's are well known parasite killers. They're not traditional cancer treatments.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Fenben went viral as a potential treatment in 2018/2019 when Joe Tippens told the world his story. Tippens was dying of small cell lung cancer. It had spread to his stomach, neck, liver, and pancreas. It was everywhere.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Tippens veterinarian turned him onto Fenben saying he had heard stories from clients about it treating Cancer in animals. There was nothing to lose at this stage and so Tippens tried it and 3 months later, his cancer was gone!

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Similarly Ivermectin made global headlines during the C0vid years for its ability to treat SARS-CoV-2. In 2021, Joe Rogan took a doctor-prescribed, human-grade ivermectin along with other therapies to treat C0vid, and it worked. The media went bonkers! How dare he.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Both Ivermectin and Benzi's have been written about as potential Cancer treatments since about the 2000s. Fenben’s anti-cancer effects were first noted in 2008, when researchers found that cancer cells failed to grow in lab animals treated with the drug for parasites.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

And Avermectin (Ivermectin's naturally occurring cousin) was reported to possess antitumor action on mice in 2004.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

But again, there's almost no human clinical trials. One trial which is currently underway on Ivermectin and expected to be completed by 2026: Ivermectin and Balstilimab for the Treatment of Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Fenben is not even approved for human use by the FDA! Meben on the other hand has a number of research papers and clinical studies: • Clinical Trial on Gastrointestinal Cancer • Randomized Controlled Trial on Colorectal Cancer • Phase 1 Trial on Pediatric Brain Tumors

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Meanwhile the New York Times is publishing articles warning against the use of Ivermectin for cancer...

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

And Frontiers (a leading open-access academic publisher) was caught doing the same with Fenben after the Joe Tippens story went viral in Korea.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

How dare people dying of cancer try cheap, safe, potential solutions? The point of all this, is not to prove that Ivermectin or Benzi's can cure, kill or slow cancer. The point is that people have The Right to Try.

Fenbendazole acts as a moderate microtubule destabilizing agent and causes cancer cell death by modulating multiple cellular pathways - Scientific Reports Drugs that are already clinically approved or experimentally tested for conditions other than cancer, but are found to possess previously unrecognized cytotoxicity towards malignant cells, may serve as fitting anti-cancer candidates. Methyl N-(6-phenylsulfanyl-1H benzimidazol-2-yl) carbamate [Fenbendazole, FZ], a benzimidazole compound, is a safe and inexpensive anthelmintic drug possessing an efficient anti-proliferative activity. In our earlier work, we reported a potent growth-inhibitory activity of FZ caused partially by impairment of proteasomal function. Here, we show that FZ demonstrates moderate affinity for mammalian tubulin and exerts cytotoxicity to human cancer cells at micromolar concentrations. Simultaneously, it caused mitochondrial translocation of p53 and effectively inhibited glucose uptake, expression of GLUT transporters as well as hexokinase (HK II) - a key glycolytic enzyme that most cancer cells thrive on. It blocked the growth of human xenografts in nu/nu mice model when mice were fed with the drug orally. The results, in conjunction with our earlier data, suggest that FZ is a new microtubule interfering agent that displays anti-neoplastic activity and may be evaluated as a potential therapeutic agent because of its effect on multiple cellular pathways leading to effective elimination of cancer cells. nature.com

Oral Fenbendazole for Cancer Therapy in Humans and Animals Fenbendazole is a benzimidazole anthelmintic agent commonly used to treat animal parasitic infections. In humans, other benzimidazoles, such as mebendazole and albendazole, are used as antiparasitic agents. Since fenbendazole is not currently approved by the FDA or EMA, its pharmacokinetics and safety in humans have yet to be well-documented in medical literature. Despite this, insights can be drawn from existing in vitro and in vivo animal studies on its pharmacokinetics. Given the low cost of fenbendazole, its high safety profile, accessibility, and unique anti-proliferative activities, fenbendazole would be the preferred benzimidazole compound to treat cancer. To ensure patient safety in the repurposing use of fenbendazole, it is crucial to perform clinical trials to assess its potential anticancer effects, optimal doses, therapeutic regimen, and tolerance profiles. This review focuses on the pharmacokinetics of orally administered fenbendazole and its promising anticancer biological activities, such as inhibiting glycolysis, down-regulating glucose uptake, inducing oxidative stress, and enhancing apoptosis in published experimental studies. Additionally, we evaluated the toxicity profile of fenbendazole and discussed possibilities for improving the bioavailability of the drug, enhancing its efficacy, and reducing potential toxicity. ar.iiarjournals.org

While attention is on other topics, I’m excited about Microsoft’s Majorana 1 Quantum Chip, which introduces a new state of matter. This groundbreaking chip utilizes topoconductors to create stable qubits, essential for quantum computing. Majorana particles, unique quasiparticles that are their own antiparticles, enhance fault tolerance by allowing systems to remember particle swaps. Unlike fragile superconducting qubits, topological qubits resist errors, paving the way for advancements in drug discovery, cryptography, and more, with practical applications just years away.

Speaker 0: Sometimes it's nothing, the zero state, and sometimes it's the electron, the one state. Speaker 1: So it really has taken quite some thinking, right, some time to design a device, design a chip that can enable measurement of this literally elusive particle. We've designed a chip that is able to measure the presence of Majorana. Majorana allows us to create a topological qubit. A topological qubit is reliable, small, and controllable. This solves the noise problem that creates errors in qubits. Now that we have these topological qubits, we're able to build an entirely new quantum architecture, the topological core, which can scale to a million topological qubits on a tiny chip. Speaker 2: Every single atom in this chip is placed purposefully. It is constructed from ground up. It is entirely a new state of matter. Think of us as building the picture by painting it atom by atom. In a regular chip, the computation is done using electrons. We don't use electrons for compute. We use minanas for computing. It's an entirely new particle. It's half electron. Speaker 1: When we look at the design of this chip, right, first of all, you can fit so much on just a small form factor. Right? This chip can store over a million cubits. Right? Over a million can fit on just this small form factor. In addition, we don't want to wait centuries or millennia for a solution. And so this chip also offers the right speed to get solutions from the chip in a reasonable, efficient, you know, amount of time. That's the beauty in this qubit design, the topological qubit. It has the right size, the right speed, and the right type of controllability. And all of that together means that it has an ability to scale like no other.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

What is a Majorana particle? It's a special type of quasiparticle that was first theorized by Ettore Majorana in 1937 and is unique because it is its-own antiparticle. Both matter and antimatter. It exists only in special quantum states and has “non-abelian” properties. https://t.co/SmQ7A0Btz4

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

If you swap two Majorana particles around, the system “remembers” the swap and can be used for fault-tolerant quantum computing. https://t.co/dFwUbfZLpB

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

A new state of matter? Traditional matter exists in solid, liquid, and gas forms (plasma, BEC, and others exist too). Microsoft's new state allows for the creation and control of Majorana particles. These particles are key to producing reliable qubits. https://t.co/ZkGeGYJJBl

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

How does Majorana 1 differ from other quantum chips? Most quantum computers today use superconducting qubits (like those from Google and IBM). The problem? They’re fragile. Qubits need to stay in a superposition state to work. https://t.co/ugwSE8OEck

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

But even the tiniest disturbance—heat, radiation, or noise—can cause errors. This leads to "quantum decoherence," meaning information is lost before calculations are complete. Microsoft’s Majorana 1 chip solves this using topological qubits. https://t.co/IKanr1pTDu

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

What makes topological qubits unique? Instead of storing information in a single point, topological qubits spread information across a quantum system. This makes them far more resistant to errors because even if part of the system is disturbed, the entire qubit doesn’t collapse. https://t.co/QCOg3mmVCD

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

The key breakthrough here is Majorana particles. Their exotic quantum states naturally protect qubits from interference. Think of it like a braided rope: If you only have a single thread and it breaks, it's useless. A braided rope is far stronger and more resistant to damage. https://t.co/fRXk42SDfh

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Potential applications? With the ability to fit up to a million qubits on a single chip, we might soon see: ✅ Drug discovery and personalized treatments ✅ Cryptography, security protocols, and new encryption methods ✅Designing super materials with unprecedented properties

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

When can we expect to see real-world impact? Microsoft suggests that practical quantum computing applications are "years, not decades" away. Challenges remain, such as testing, scaling production, and reducing costs. But with Majorana 1, we are now jumping decades ahead.

Bovaer is being added to beef and milk to address climate change, but I believe this is based on flawed science. The feed additive, developed by DSM-firmenich and backed by Blackrock, stems from a 2006 FAO report that inaccurately claimed livestock contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. Dr. Mitloehner has pointed out these flaws, emphasizing that methane from livestock is part of a natural cycle. Despite DSM's claims of safety, long-term health effects of Bovaer on humans remain uncertain. This initiative seems more like a profit-driven scheme than a genuine solution to a non-existent problem.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Bovaer is being added to BEEF and MILK because it is thought to prevent climate change. This is based on woke science. The truth is, it might harm your health in many ways. I’ll explain. https://t.co/TTHOInPzvV

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

First, I need to give you some background on how Bovaer was originally made. And how it is NOW being added to BEEF and MILK. Bovaer is a new feed additive or new animal drug. It's made by DSM-firmenich. The major shareholder is Blackrock. Vid credit @LeilaniDowding https://t.co/TSKrpVGVxb

Video Transcript AI Summary
Bovair is a product intended for cows to reduce methane emissions, but it poses significant health risks, including potential damage to male fertility. Handling it requires protective gear due to its toxicity. Concerns arise about whether this substance could transfer into milk, especially for breastfeeding mothers. Local dairies, like the one I contacted, refuse to use this product, opting instead for pasture-raised cows. It's crucial to support such farms, as labeling may not reveal if cows were fed this substance. There’s a risk that corporate interests might push for more intensive farming practices under the guise of sustainability, potentially compromising animal welfare. This shift could prioritize carbon footprints over humane treatment, contradicting the push for pasture-raised livestock. The belief that a toxic chemical can effectively combat climate change is misguided.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: So this is straight off the FDA's website and it's nuts to me when you actually read what is in Bovair and how you have to handle it. Now, this is a product that they want to give to cows because they believe it will reduce their farts and in doing so we will alter the global climate for the better. So if you read here it says 3 nitroxypropanol may damage male fertility and reproductive organs. So you have to handle it wearing eyewear, protective impervious gloves, and a face mask because it's toxic. Because it's dangerous, and they think by giving this to cows we are going to protect our environment. Someone's making this product. Someone has to handle this product, and who knows if this product then transfers into the milk of the cow. We know that pregnant women are very careful when they're breastfeeding. They don't want the substances to pass over into the baby's milk. So what's happening here with the cows? So I called my local dairy who says they do not and will not ever feed this substance to their cows. Their cows are all out in fields anyway, out in the pasture eating grass, maybe a little haylage if there's a shortage of grass. They're not really in barns unless it's freezing cold. They're not being given a load of hard feed. So, first of all, really important that we share and promote farmers and dairies like this because due to labeling, we're not going to know what products are fed are made from cows fed on this. But what we can do is know the products that are fed from cows not given this. That's the only way of knowing if, a dairy says, look. We do not give this to our cows. That's the only way to know. But, also, it's got me thinking. We have seen that there has been a land grab, on farmers with a lot of corporate interest investment companies wanting to buy up farmland, get into farming. And what this could potentially do is start farms going more intensive under the guise and farming more intensively under the guise of sustainability. Sacrificing animal welfare on the altar of the net zero scam. And what I mean by that is you can see that, you know, these pasture raised cows are then going to be told they have a much higher carbon footprint than animals kept in a barn given higher, hard feed with this product. And if people start to care less about the welfare of the animals and more about this nonsense, net zero scam, we we could see them make the switch to keeping animals in barns rather than the, you know, pasture range, free range that we've all been wanting for the last, you know, few years and been fighting for. So that's another thing that's really worth remembering, when you look at all of this and you look at the nonsense surrounding the climate change scam and the net zero scam and how, you know, these people actually think that this toxic chemical that you have all these warnings for from the FDA is going to actually alter the climate.

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Why was it made? The idea started in 2006. When the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) published a report titled: 'Livestock's Long Shadow.' That report focused heavily on methane and climate change. The problem? It was totally flawed. https://t.co/sIJmMvaAEd

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

The report claimed that livestock causes 18% of the world's greenhouse gases. But that was wrong! Dr. Frank Mitloehner (UC Davis Air Quality Specialist Dept. Animal Science) highlighted the report's problems. And the FAO eventually admitted he was right. https://t.co/l9fn6ZPqaF

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Dr. Mitloehner's points: • FAO's claim of 18% emissions for livestock (more than transport) was flawed. • The report only included tailpipe emissions for transport. • The calculation for livestock included everything (land use, feed, etc.) But that's not all he said. https://t.co/oVBdDSf9bm

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Dr. Mitloehner also said: Methane emitted by livestock is part of the biogenic carbon cycle, a natural process. And: Livestock numbers remain stable and have done so since the PRE-EUROPEAN SETTLEMENT! So, how can livestock add to climate change? https://t.co/0vIwRVE1bS

Video Transcript AI Summary
Cattle are the most significant ruminants, with around 100 million in the U.S. today, a number consistent since before European settlement when bison and pronghorn antelope were prevalent. The contribution of ruminants to global warming hasn't changed over the last 250 years. Biogenic methane from livestock is distinct from fossil methane. While both types of methane are chemically the same, biogenic methane is part of a cycle where carbon is recycled. Plants absorb CO2, which cows then convert into methane. This methane, after about ten years, is oxidized back into CO2, which is not new carbon but recycled carbon. As long as livestock numbers remain stable, methane production and destruction balance out, meaning there is no additional warming from livestock. This challenges the prevailing narrative about livestock's impact on climate change.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Cows, goat, sheep, there are others. But when you talk about sort of numbers and percentages, is cows overwhelmingly the the highest percentage of ruminants and that's why people talk about it? Or is it just the one we eat so people talk about it? Speaker 1: No. Cattle are the most important species. So you have here in the United States, for example, we have 90,000,000, 90, 90,000,000 beef cattle, 9,000,000 dairy cows. So we have a lot. We have about a 100,000,000 large ruminants in the United States. But, you know, just so you know, prior to the European settlement of the United States, we also had a 100,000,000 large ruminants in the country. But at that time, it was 60, 70,000,000 bison, and it was 40,000,000 pronghorn antlops. The white people from Europe came here, and they slaughtered most of those and replaced them over time with domesticated ruminants. Speaker 0: So that's really interesting. So if the if the total number of ruminants hasn't changed in that time period, then the contribution of ruminants to global warming hasn't changed in that time period. Is that a true statement? Speaker 1: That's correct. That is a true that is a true statement, but it's only part of the story. Okay? Speaker 0: It is Speaker 1: a true statement that over the last 250 years or so, we have not added additional additional, that's really important, biogenic methane. I say biogenic because biogenic means, related to biological activity of animals, let's say, or of rice paddies. As a contrast to biogenic methane, there's also the the so called fossil methane, and fossil methane is methane that's associated with the storage of fossil fuels. Now how is that different? Is fossil methane, let's say, different from biogenic methane that comes from cows? And the answer is yes. Even though the methane in both cases is CH 4, chemically the same. But in the case of fossil methane, the fate of what happens to that methane is different to the fate of what happens to the livestock methane. In both cases, methane stays in the atmosphere for 10 years, and I told you, it's then destroyed. The destruction process is called oxidation. To be precise, it's called hydroxyl oxidation. And methane in that process is converted to c o 2 is converted to c02. So in the case of burning fossil fuels, we have methane and c02 in the atmosphere. In the case of fossil methane, that's converted into c02 again, and that c02 is now additional. It's new additional c o n 2. But in the case of a cow, it's different. Let me walk through this. It's it's kind of exciting. Maybe only to me, but we'll see. Speaker 0: I like people get excited about what they talk about, though. So let's hear it. Speaker 1: In the case of biogenic methane, the methane from cows, you have to ask yourself, where does that carbon that's in the methane, that CH 4, where does that carbon come from, and where is it going? So I just told you the fossil methane is going from the ground into the atmosphere, one way street. K? But the biogenic methane is different. Think of what you learned in school about what plants need to to to live. Plants need sunlight, and they need they need CO 2, and they need water. Right? Why do they need CO 2? They need CO 2 because they need to build carbohydrates. So they need the carbon from the c o two, from the atmospheric c o two, to build carbohydrates such as cellulose or starch. So the plants now take that carbon out of the air. They make carbohydrates, and then that cow comes along. And she eats that plant and converts a small portion of the carbohydrate she eats by eating that plant into enteric methane. It's biogenic methane. Okay? That methane is then either belched out or it's produced by means of manure conversion. Okay? It's not coming out the back end like many of your listeners think. It's coming out of the front end mainly, and that's called enteric emissions. Okay? That methane is now belched out, and with its again, methane is CH 4. That methane is carbon containing, and that carbon in the methane originated in the atmospheric c o two before it went into photosynthesis. Does that make sense? Speaker 0: Yes. So So the plant basically took c o two out of the atmosphere, made carbohydrate out of it, and the cow converted that into a protein for itself and methane. So it's sort of taking CO 2 out and putting methane out as a result. Correct. Speaker 1: And then that methane stays in the air for 10 years and is then, via hydroxyl oxidation, converted again into CO 2. That CO2 that's resulting from this oxidative process is not new carbon to the atmosphere. It's recycled carbon. I do. What are you just talking? Speaker 0: Taken out of the atmosphere and then put back. Speaker 1: And given back to the atmosphere. In other words, the biogenic carbon, the biogenic methane is not new carbon. It's recycled carbon. It's not new. It's recycled. And the the cycle I just described to you is called the biogenic carbon cycle. And here is why that matters. In the case of fossil fuel, all the carbon that came from the ground goes into the atmosphere. It's new additional carbon. Hence, it's new additional warming. In the case of biogenic carbon, it's not new additional carbon, and it's not new additional warming. As long as we keep our livestock herds constant and don't grow them, and we haven't done that in decades in the United States and in most other developed countries, as long as we don't increase the herd sizes, the amount of methane produced and the amount of methane destroyed remains the same, and we are not adding new additional carbon. And, hence and now hold yourself on the chair. We are not adding additional warming. We are not adding additional warming. Now that's a big deal. And it's a total change in the narrative around the warming impact of our livestock herds, one that its critics have to get used to because that's the way it goes. Speaker 0: Yeah. I mean, when you hear it put

It's not just Dr. Mitloehner sounding off. Listen to Elon Musk talking to Joe Rogan about the same topic. "The animals are not going to make any difference to global warming." "I want to be super clear about that. It will not matter, you will not even be able to measure it." https://t.co/bKWkzuPdv8

Video Transcript AI Summary
Switching to a diet of steak and eggs can provide a significant energy boost, avoiding the carbohydrate crash. A high-protein, high-fat diet helps maintain stable energy levels. Many dismiss the carnivore diet due to claims that animal agriculture contributes to global warming, which is misleading. The real issue lies with factory farming, while regenerative farming practices can be carbon neutral. The notion that eating meat significantly impacts global warming is unfounded and often stems from ideological or financial interests in plant-based alternatives. It's essential to question the validity of these claims, as they often lack measurable evidence. Eating meat won’t affect CO2 levels in any meaningful way.

Speaker 0: Primarily an animal based thing. Yeah. Yeah. But Like, I I Speaker 1: did switch to, like, steak and eggs for breakfast, and I found that's, like, a power up. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Speaker 0: Yeah. Well, we're all overrun with carbohydrates. Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. Totally. Speaker 0: And you do like, carbohydrates make this big crash, the rise Speaker 1: and the crash. Speaker 0: The rise and the crash. You stay flat if you eat like a a primarily high protein, high fat diet. Speaker 1: Yeah. Speaker 0: Your body runs off ketosis essentially. I mean, Speaker 1: I I so I just have, like, steak and eggs, no no bread or or anything. Yeah. That's great. It's great, actually. It's a power up, I'd say. Speaker 0: People dismiss this whole carnivore diet thing because in our heads, there's a lot of propagandists that put this thing out there that animal agriculture is the number one contributor to global warming. Speaker 1: Yes. That's that's rubbish. It's not true. Bullshit. It's hot bullshit. Matter. Speaker 0: Not only is it hot bullshit, but the real problem is factory farming. Regenerative farming is carbon neutral if it doesn't sequester carbon. Speaker 1: The the the animals are not gonna make any difference to global warming. They're none. No. It's bullshit. Supposed Euros are nothing. Speaker 0: Do you think that that's just propaganda because of people that have a vested in, like, plant based meat products and things along those lines, green energy? I think it's part Speaker 1: of it. You know, the you're generally gonna get people pushing to avoid meat. Like, some people just, you know, yeah. Maybe they go to financial interest. Maybe they're just, like, vegetarians or vegans or whatever. Ideological reasons. Ideological reasons. But, it's not gonna make any difference, to global warming or, you know, the CO 2 concentration atmosphere, really, if if people eat pure, steaks. It doesn't matter. It's irrelevant. Irrelevant. I wanna just be super clear about that. Yeah. Will not matter you will not even be able to measure it. Okay? That's how irrelevant it is. Isn't it funny that that's Unmeasurable. Irrelevant. Speaker 0: A heretic speaking. Like, that's crazy talk now. Nowadays, it's like you have to say that we have to eat less meat. That meat is bad. Speaker 1: Totally, as much for you as you want. It's not gonna make a difference. Speaker 0: Sing it. Sing it. Tell the world. Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely. And if somebody says it does make a difference, I'm like, how will you measure it? And if you can't even measure it, then it's bullshit. Yeah. Yeah. Literally, I won't be able to measure it. Speaker 0: Well, there's so much bullshit out there. First of all Yes. Speaker 1: Both in all directions. Speaker 0: Thank you so much for

Meaning: the whole problem that DSM and Bovaer are claiming to try to fix is BOGUS! It is built on a lie. It started with the FOA report. The media picked it up and ran with it. And then COP26, took place in Glasgow, Scotland, in November 2021. https://t.co/0G0N9HvEyK

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

During COP26, 100 countries signed the Global Methane Pledge. The Pledge: to cut methane emissions by 30% by 2030. So, the DSM product is designed for this very reason. They say it in their product brochures. In other words, they are trying to fix a made-up problem. https://t.co/h7QQJ8vVwa

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Now, onto Bovaer - The SOLUTION to a non-problem. • The active ingredient in Bovaer is 3-nitrooxypropanol (3-NOP). • 3-NOP works by inhibiting an enzyme called methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR). • MCR is involved in the production of methane in the cow's stomach (rumen). https://t.co/eiN7sPzw6h

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Bovaer beef and milk are fast making their way onto shelves. • Coles stores in Australia • Aldi stores in Australia and the UK. • Lurpak products in the UK and Australia. • Arla products in the UK. The list is growing. The FDA has also approved Bovaer for the US market. https://t.co/WlLp73B3R7

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

DSM says Bovaer is safe and passed European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) tests. The report says the genotoxic potential of 3-NOP has not been fully clarified (in cows). 3-NOP was found in the liver, kidneys, adrenal glands, bone marrow, muscle, fat, and brain of test animals. https://t.co/pkEZeKaBb3

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

EFSA confirmed: "The FEEDAP Panel considered that the consumer was exposed to 3‐nitrooxypropionic acid (NOPA)..." "...which is one of the 3‐NOP metabolites. NOPA was not genotoxic based on the studies provided." Based on the studies provided... https://t.co/dmhidSOseY

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

In other words. Small amounts are found in the cows. And they don't know if, in 5, 10, or 20 years, we will find health issues caused by Bovaer in humans. But, of course, DSM has gone on the offensive: They published a "Misinformation about Bovaer® in the UK" guide. https://t.co/uz2GoiN5ze

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

In their "Misinformation" guide, they currently list 13 points. In those 13 points, they repeat over and over again how Bovaer reduces methane. No one is disputing that! No one cares because it's a non-issue! Yet, they only mention safety to HUMANS once. See for yourself: https://t.co/74kqjJ03iJ

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

How many times throughout history have we been told things are SAFE, only to find out later that they are not? Let's see: Asbestos Thalidomide DDT Lead Cigarettes Bisphenol A (BPA) Agent Orange Trans Fats Mercury-Based Products Vioxx Radium...and more. https://t.co/jhZUEacnps

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

Instead of addressing concerns. DSM is working with Elanco, to monetize Bovaer use via a new carbon credit process. '$20 per cow' '$89 million in RCCP grants awarded...the first tranche of dollars that will be available.' They call this a 'self-sustaining carbon inset market' https://t.co/RBw7st40ag

@Mr_Fireside - Mr_Fireside

To summarise: This whole thing is a money-making scam. - There is no methane/climate change issue, as Dr Mitloehner addresses. - The media ran the story anyway. - COP26 put The Global Methane Pledge together to reduce methane. - DSM developed Bovaer knowing 158 participant nations supported it (with funding from the Scottish Government, AKA Scottish taxpayers). - DSM launched the product. - Elanco and DSM put together a carbon credit plan to monetize and effectively incentivize Bovaer use for farmers. - The money to incentivize farmers in the US comes from Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP) which is the USDA (US taxpayers). So you end up with: Blindsided consumers that don't want Bovaer in their meat, milk, or dairy. Where there is no carbon credit scheme, the consumer pays a higher price for meat, milk, and dairy products. Where there is a carbon credit scheme, consumers still pay for it via their taxes. The consumer may potentially face health issues in the future as there have been no long-term studies on humans eating or drinking products fed with Bovaer. All due to stupid, woke science that is based on a lie.
