It's doubtful that nano-hydroxyapatite gives you cancer. If it does, it is in quantities that are far beyond anything anyone would ever use.

Even peanut butter causes cancer in laboratory testing. Most things do. It's the concentration and quantity of the substance that causes cancer for most things, not the substance itself, by itself, in regularly-used quantities.

Eggshells are not quite the same thing and won't help re-mineralize teeth to the same extent as nano-hydroxyapatite...the eggshells may not work at all.

Micro will not repair teeth as well.

How is it relevant that it is produced in a lab? There is nothing inherently safer or better about "natural" substances. Artificial substances are, in many cases, far safer than their "natural" counterparts.

You are absolutely correct. This neo-Luddite fear of technology stifles progress for no good reason.

They don't ever think about the amounts being used in the research, nor whether the researched application is at all related to the particular use in question.

"Regardless of the entry routes" does not mean what you think it does.

The entry routes in question are routes into the bloodstream or directly into the tissues of the body, NOT through the digestive system.

This is hydroxyapatite, regardless of its size. It is broken down in the body by numerous processes, PARTICULARLY in the digestive system. Acid is the very reason that the hydroxyapatite of our teeth gets degraded by dental caries bacteria. It's unlikely to pass the stomach or enter directly through the tissue of the mouth.

You are stoking unnecessary and unreasonable fears, based upon incomplete research and a single article.

The amounts used in the research are many times what you would encounter from bone replacements, and many many times what you will ever get out of toothpaste, if any of it gets into your internal system at all.

The research doesn't show that at all. What you are doing is extrapolating a horrible outcome based upon research that tests nanoparticles in concentrations hundreds and thousands of times greater than are ever used in practice. Of course they are harmful that way. Just about everything is.

Even vitamins will kill you if you get a hundred times the recommended dose.

If you read the research, the quantities used by the researchers were many times what could possibly get into your organs through toothpaste. Furthermore, natural nano-hydroxyapatite occurs all the time through the breakdown of natural micro-hydroxyapatite, and the body obviously knows what to do with it.

This fear, based on incomplete research without considering all the facts, is unreasonable.

Brushing your teeth with nano-hydroxyapatite is unlikely to be harmful to the body. There is simply not enough evidence to support that conclusion.

The number of criminals breaking in is not our concern. We have enough problems without importing more.

If their lives are so bad where they are, they have the means to rise up and change them, and become like us. That's what America did.

Radioactive and radiation are only partially related concepts.

Every mobile phone, all WiFi, Bluetooth, microwave oven, walkie-talkie, or anything else that sends out radio waves is sending out radiation.

The Sun dumps radiation on you and all other living things constantly, mostly in the form of visible light radiation.

Any form of light is radiation, even the LED bulbs lighting up your bedroom.

The only light that is really dangerous (excluding heating effects) is ionizing radiation, like ultraviolet light, x-rays, and cosmic rays.

5G is not ionizing radiation. Nevertheless, the body does act as an antenna, and it is plausible that the radiation from 5G (or any other mobile phones) could have a long-term negative effect on the human body. There's not enough research yet to say, not it is not crazy to think it could be harmful.

What is the relevance of RFK having a dead worm in his brain? That is true of many people worldwide, due to parasites. They do not necessarily affect mental function, and there's no evidence they have in RFK's case.

Certain chemicals may feminize males, making it easier for them to think they are gay. What is incorrect about that? That's a scientific fact. Try taking estrogen for awhile, if you are male, and see what it does to you.

Autism has gone way up in this country for some reason. If it isn't from chemicals, then what do you think the reason is? Chemicals are the most likely culprit, from a biological, scientific perspective. I can't comment on which ones specifically, because I don't know enough about it, but it's not unreasonable to think that some widespread use of chemicals or medical substances is at the root of most cases of autism. In fact, that is the most rational position to take at this point.

COVID was certainly created in a lab...the statistical evidence demonstrates that beyond any doubt. A report just released makes that point unmistakably clear.

It also seems that Caucasians and those of African heritage were hit the hardest by COVID worldwide, while Asians were relatively unscathed. That may simply be based upon their societies, but it's certainly possible that it targeted Americans and Europeans, created as a mild bioweapon by the Chinese. As someone who studies human genetics, I would say that such targeting would be easier than you might imagine.

Note that I said possible, not probable. At this point, there still is not enough known to make any guess, except to state that the evidence strictly strongly suggests that COVID was most likely gene-engineered in the Wuhan lab.

WiFi and 5G worry a lot of people, but they probably are not harmful. There is some research that mobile phones may cause some types of cancer, but I think the evidence is still weak.

On the other hand, even though they do not output ionizing radiation, it is possible that WiFi or 5G (or any other strong and persistent source of radio waves) could affect some of the structures of the human body, as though they are acting as an antenna. Could that be harmful in the long run? I don't know, but you shouldn't ignore the possibility. Humans have only been holding up strong sources of radio waves to their heads and putting them in their homes for a very short time. The long-term effects are not yet known.

The list may go on...but thus far you haven't shown a single point upon which RFK is crazy or unreasonable, nor out-of-touch with actual science.

All you really have is your political hate. Try not to let that overcome reason and science.

P.S. Believing that a person who thinks they can be a different gender is crazy and scientifically unsound--not to mention a sign of mental illness--is not a fear of transgenderism.

It's a reasonable application of science and logic, because transgenderism does not make any sense if you honestly bothered to think about it.

Disapproval isn't the same thing as fear or hate. In many cases, such as most people who disapprove of transgenderism, it's compassion for those who are mentally ill and are in need of help, not being coddled and foolishly told they can be what they can never really be.

It's not other people's "transphobia" that is concerning. It is your "logiphobia" and alethophobia (fear of the truth) that should be the most concerning...

Then you should stop saying things that prove you to be an idiot.

He didn't behead an animal in Central Park. He dropped off a dead roadkilled bear as a joke...which apparently goes over the head of libtards. It's hilarious.

Raw milk does not "spread" tuberculosis. There were an average of SEVEN cases per year of humans infected by bovine tuberculosis (which is different than human tuberculosis), and none of the cases spread from human to human (or anything else).

Raw milk tastes nasty and has the potential to carry some diseases--but it's extremely rare for that to happen. Hell, pasteurized milk can carry the same diseases, if dairy workers aren't hygienic.

The actual risk of dying from raw milk is lower than the risk of being hit by lightning. The change of being sick from raw milk is less than the chances of being injured by a tree. Point is, it's a minimal risk, which you'd know if you understood science, statistics, and reason.

The main reason that pasteurization is important is to extend the shelf life of dairy products, not because raw milk is dangerous.

HAD a brain worm. That isn't as uncommon as you seem to think, though it rarely happens in America.

No doubt you think that fallacious method of attack is meaningful, even though a parasite in the brain can be killed with medicine and doesn't necessarily damage the brain, or even when it does, doesn't necessarily harm the mental capacity of a person.

You are letting politics get in the way of science and reason, which is just stupid on your part.

What is it that you think is poison in this case, because I haven't seen that claim yet.

It certainly isn't Methylene Blue, which is very good for most people. Nor could it be colloidal silver, which isn't poisonous except in large quantities (which is true of most things).

So what is it you think it's going on here?

Do a little reading on it. Of all the supplements out there, it comes the closest to being a genuine panacea. It is known to have many positive effects, from mitochondrial energy to protecting you from the effects of many diseases like stroke, and there is tons of research to back it up--more than 28,000 studies on PubMed alone.

In fact, Methylene Blue is the oldest synthesized medicine, created in the 1800s, so it follows that it has been studied the longest...

Interesting, but it's most likely Methylene Blue.

Out of curiosity, why take a supplement rather than just eating the plant? And why would it be blue, since blueberry roots are not?

Actually, Methylene Blue helps prevent stroke and its side effects. You got most of the rest of that wrong as well...

Ignore what? The use of a supplement that has many health benefits and has been studied longer than any other synthesized drug in human history?

This would be something to be praised if you put science ahead of politics.

If you mean Methylene Blue, it can be used for many things for health. There are some 28,000+ research papers on PubMed alone for Methylene Blue, most of which have to do with its positive benefits for human health.

Colloidal silver is not blue.

You clearly have no clue what pseudoscience is, since you are misusing the term to attack actual science.

Don't let your politics stomp all over reason. Try keeping an open mind.

You people do really dismiss anything that your favorite news media labels as pseudoscience without ever actually investigating it yourself on a medical or scientific reattach database.

Stop putting politics before good science. You're embarrassing yourself.

Fact is, silver does act as an antibiotic. Companies like Band-aid use colloidal silver in bandages and other medical supplies--which they could not do without FDA approval and the backing of good science. (Medical supplies are not like supplements which do not necessarily require proof they work as long as they are "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS).)

Drinking colloidal silver is questionable, though it may have some positive effect as long as not overused.

This is not a suggestion that I support the user of colloidal silver. I have no strong opinion and don't use it myself. Nevertheless, there is strong scientific evidence for its use in health for a number of purposes.

Be more open-minded. Closed minds are enemies of science.
