    Artificial sweeteners are likely to damage gut bacteria, which could translate into increased risk of everything (auto immune disorders, alzeihmer's, cancer...) but the increase in risk is difficult to measure in actual studies, unlike actual sugar. Therefore the increase in risk is at least 10x...

    In another thread I mentionned that I didn't care about flying 787, I just avoided completely 737 max, and I was told by FoH concensus that "you shouldn't". So I booked A350 for this summer. Never doubt FoH concensus, you'll die. That being said I wouldn't have booked Air India, even in A350 or...

    As we get older, our body can tolerate less... You're slightly obese, but still obese, meaning you probably have constantly fairly high blood sugar, which causes inflamation, and all sort of problems. Diabetes is a major risk increase for Afib, so it is possibly an issue. You probably don't have...

    Polyps? You're talking colon cancer? Colon cancer is another beast. If you're at risk, screening is indeed a good idea. I don't think very many people do not die of their colon cancer if left untreated.

    It looks like 95% of the prostate cancer are benign, so it seems the correct, and current way to deal with it, is to not look for it unless there are symptoms.

    Half of 90 years old have prostate cancer. Very few die of it. Only 2% of men die of it. Would seem to be one of the least dangerous and to progress very slowly in the vast majority of case. To the point that screening isn't recommanded in most cases.

    It's probably better to rotate your vitamin rather than taking the same all the time. I know chinese doctors like to give a different prescription for each season. Intuitively it seems a good idea.
