Yes, my blog is terribly written. :-D

But the rest of what you says is utterly wrong.

Have a look at the paper I pointed earlier in this thread on patients kept alive using his protocol.

The basis of Dr. Seyfried's work is that the 'nuclear DNA mutations cause cancer' theory is wrong. It's the mitochondria. This is shown by research where nucleus from cancer cells transplanted into normal cells resulted in a normal cell. And when mitochondria aretransplanted from a cancer cell to a normal cells, that gave rise to a cancer cell.

You can't fault a man for who he happens to talk to, otherwise you'd be condemning Jesus too. I don't know what he told Mercola; maybe "here's a smarter way to think about this"? :)

Yes, that's because I put some useful cancer info there. Don't let this upset you - I earn no dime from that blog.

One of the most important info there is on Dr Seyfried work. His approach has kept patients alive - one pancreatic cancer patient alive for 6 years and a glioblastoma patient alive for a couple of decades. His approach relies on continuous glucose and ketone measurement. I've calculated my GKI using a glucose meter, and it can get complicated pricking yourself twice, running two test strips, doing the ratio, etc.

Here's a good overview on Dr. Seyfried's work:

Comment Glucose-Ketone Index (GKI) tracking for dietary co (Score 1, Troll) 52

Dr Thomas Seyfried's work on dietary approaches to treating cancer uses Glucose-Ketone Index (GKI) -- a simple way to track how effectively you're shifting away from glucose metabolism toward ketone metabolism. The cancer patient makes dietary decisions to drive their GKI numerical value in the low single digits.

GKI Calculation:
GKI = Blood glucose à Blood ketones

Target Ranges:
General cancer management: GKI 2-3
Active treatment: GKI 1-2
Advanced/aggressive cancers: GKI below 1 (temporarily, with medical supervision)

Normally, you test fasting glucose and ketones upon waking. But continuous measurement provides a lot more insight.

I wrote a blog about GKI and other 'self care' approaches here:

Submission + - Scientists Turn Plastic Waste Into Edible Cookies (futurism.com)

fjo3 writes: In the event we turn all arable land on this planet into a barren heath incapable of growing food, humankind may have to resort to reaping what we sowed by eating our own plastic pollution.

A team of researchers at Southern Illinois University Carbondale just demonstrated that this was possible by using specially engineered yeast to create tasty — and yes, edible — cookies which they 3D printed out of plastic waste.

The yeast breaks down the components of plastic compounds and agricultural byproducts like discarded plant stalks into proteins, fats, acids, and flavorings that we can eat. When these are combined together, the mixture is fed into a 3D printer that spits out cookies of any desired shape.

Submission + - OpenAI and Google Move Into K-12 Classrooms with New Kid-Friendly AI Offerings

theodp writes: "OpenAI announced on Tuesday 'ChatGPT for Teens'", the NY Times reports, "a new mode in which the chatbot automatically limits some conversations to better protect young users, as scrutiny grows over the harmful effects of artificial intelligence." OpenAI added that it's also teaming with tech-backed nonprofit CodeAI to 'prepare the first AI generation', announcing a 'signature partnership' that it says will "give students and educators access to tools and resources that will help them learn how to use and benefit from AI [...] helping teens understand how AI works, direct it, question it, and create with it—with teachers playing a meaningful role in shaping how AI enters the classroom." Separately, CodeAI said it and OpenAI will be "helping students build foundational AI literacy" via the Hour of AI, through which it said "OpenAI and CodeAI will introduce millions of students to the basics of using AI thoughtfully and responsibly."

OpenAI's ChatGPT for Teens announcement came just days after the NY Times reported that Google turned on Gemini AI for K-12 students using its Google Classroom, a learning management system for posting assignments and turning in schoolwork that's used by 150+ million students and teachers worldwide. A new Gemini tab within Classroom will allow students of all ages to seek AI help on math problems and writing assignments. They can also generate course aids like study guides, quizzes and flashcards, as well as produce images. Last September, Google CEO Sundar Pichai briefed the White House on the tech giant's efforts to get Gemini for Education in 'every high school in America', which he noted "includes $3 million to Code.org [since rebranded as CodeAI] to transform its [K-12] curriculum and integrate new AI features." And in December, Google.org kicked off the inaugural 'Hour of AI' by announcing "over $5 million in new Google.org funding to bolster computer science teaching in the age of AI." The 5-day event during CS Education Week saw 13+ million schoolkids take AI tutorials, including Google's AI Quests offering.

The moves by Google and OpenAI in advance of children's return to classrooms for the 2026-27 school year further escalate the race among U.S. tech giants to train students on their AI tools. They also come just ahead of next month's release of NYT journalist Natasha Singer's Coding Kids: Big Tech's Battle to Remake Public Schools, "the inside story of how Big Tech catalyzed, co-opted, and ultimately came to capture computer science and AI education in America."

Simply the Forbes link was enough to confirm this point

Nope. One link is not enough — from the very beginning I asked, that each citation consist of two links: one to the prediction being made, the other — to confirmation/discussion of it coming true. Another rule was, the two links must be at least 5 years apart.

The purpose is easy to understand. A person can privately record 20 predictions of, say, an average temperature somewhere changing from -10 to +9 degrees. Five years later one of them will have made a precise match, and Forbes will write about him. If you didn't know about his 19 other predictions, you'll be impressed... This is why I insist on the prediction to have been published — prominently — ahead of time.

you purposely ignore the arguments

Because I was not asking for arguments — I was asking for citations...
