yes I absolutely believe that we can turn on all of these pathways that are beneficial from plants that we're aware of with these molecular excuse me these environmental hormetic so we don't need molecular or medics
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
so I've talked about these fruit and vegetable depletion studies a couple of times I just want to share with you guys these in the tail because I think they're quite interesting and they argue against the notion that fruit and vegetables are clearly beneficial for humans
we need to understand that we can get these benefits these supposed benefits these hormetic benefits by doing things that don't have molecules in our bodies this is the environmental hermesis piece
these things mimic uh the hormatic effects of these plant compounds which actually have bad side effects and i believe are a clear net negative for humans
the benefits of these plant molecules are redundant you can get them from living a life you can get them from fasting you can even get them from apnea training but there are no side effects because these things are not molecules these are environmental activities this is environmental hormesis but plant molecules are things you ingest yes they may trigger nrf2 yes they may increase glutathione it's probably redundant if you're doing those other good things and then you must not ignore the side effects of these molecules
