Uh....table sugar is sucrose anyway but let's ignore that for now And uh...glycolysis? Oxphos anyone? Try living without glucose you and especially your brain are not going to get very far on that one.

Shameful. Truth is in the middle but I guess that is too subtle for Kennedy.

It is really disheartening but I basically agree. Survival of the (us guys) fittest. Look at what happened during the COVID-19 pandemics to people with underlying conditions. Expendable.

Naked mRNA is unstable: the environment is loaded with RNAse enzymes. "Shielded" RNA (mRNA included) is stable within a lipid nanoparticle or the protein capsid of some RNA viruses. High level there is TONS of RNA in meat. I think metabolism is set to digest RNA and DNA in food to nutrients.

Yup there goes my R21/R33 application on an mRNA platform vaccine idea for a common STI...submitted in response to a specific solicitation from the NIH in the before times. This is in part a science education problem: DNA, RNA, who knows, who cares, whatever, sounds scary.

Pharma adverts are out of control. Often expensive new drugs are touted when older generics will work fine.

My young mentee's first R01 on post-transplant CMV infection got an amazing score but is "delayed". Discouraging for them to say the least.
