Introduction Understanding the difference between pericytes and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) is essential for anyone exploring microvascular physiology, regenerative medicine, or oxygen-based therapies such as EWOT and HBOT. Although both cell types share some overlapping features—especially their contractile abilities- their…
Cancer, particularly alternative cancer treatments, is a largely taboo subject. I won’t go into the details of this, as it is quite dark. The powers that be, influenced more by profit than restoring health, have created a very lucrative conventional…
It is important to understand how oxygen reaches your tissues, particularly the mitochondria. This gets a little technical, but it will help you understand why both EWOT and HBOT effectively fight the aging process and enhance healing. How does oxygen…
ALL NUTRITION is delivered to the body’s trillions of cells by the capillaries, also called the microcirculation. Additionally, most cellular waste products begin their journey out of the body via this same network, the exception being those that exit via…
The Breath of Life: Why Oxygen Rules Everything: Oxygen isn’t just another element; it’s the currency of cellular survival. Every heartbeat, every neural spark, and every mitochondrial ATP molecule depends on oxygen’s seamless delivery. Yet modern life’s sedentary habits, environmental…
Imagine lacing up your sneakers, hopping on a stationary bike, and feeling an extraordinary surge of energy—not from caffeine or a pre-workout shake, but from the very air you’re breathing. That’s the magic of Exercise with Oxygen Therapy, or EWOT.…
For years, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) was seen as the ultimate solution to menopause, a treatment that could restore youth, protect the heart, and strengthen bones. Then, in what seemed like a single moment, it became one of the most…
For decades, hormone therapy (HT) has been both praised and criticized, hailed as a solution to aging and menopause, yet feared for its potential health risks. But much of the confusion and controversy surrounding hormone therapy stems from scientific missteps…
Retatrutide (LY3437943) is an investigational synthetic peptide developed by Eli Lilly, functioning as a triple agonist for the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), and glucagon receptors. It has shown superior efficacy in phase 2 and 3 trials for…
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that show promise in therapeutic applications for vascular (e.g., endothelial function, blood flow) and brain health (e.g., neuroprotection, cognition) based on preclinical and clinical studies. Many cross the blood-brain barrier, offering dual potential.…
The ultimate goal with Retatrutide is a complete metabolic reset to enhance one’s health span, not just fat loss (which is a “bonus” or “side effect”). It is more of a longevity peptide than just a weight loss peptide. Think…
Mitochondria are the tiny power plants inside our cells that produce the energy our bodies need to function. They play a key role in everything from metabolism and muscle strength to brain function and aging. Because of their importance, many…
