Righto, I've got a mobile phone for you. He's texting. I've been laying to, I'm just going to go past the Bracken Ridge road exit. He's in his right hand texting. He's still texting. He's just put it down there. See at the office. He threw it down with his right hand when he saw you coming on the finish off with. Righto.


olks, believe me, this channel is going places. It's going to be bigger and badder than ever in the future. And Cassan says, when can we expect the Raver edition of modern day to bait? I bet James would look pretty cool under black light. That would be pretty epic. Well, I'll have to look into this and see if I can get that. That's funny. Gabrielle Real, thanks for your support. Said my first time here, great channel. Gabrielle, thanks so much for your encouragement. We're glad you're here. Thanks for hanging out with us. And said wish you much success. Thank you, Gabrielle. Seriously, it really is encouraging and we're glad you're here. Thanks for positivity. It's refreshing. People like it. And Brian Griffin says, that's right, James. Thank you for your kind words, Brian Griffin. I appreciate that. And then optics versus this channel will never die. Well, people will always argue that's a guarantee. You're right. And we are, we're going to adapt. We're going to reinvent ourselves. And we think it's not for the sake of change, not just like, oh, we'll change because like change is like good. We are going to do it in a way that is like, when is it appropriate? When is the right time to reinvent ourselves? And we're kind of right now looking right now, I'm looking for like ways that we can like freshen things up, liven things up. Cause now I have a little extra time over the summer. And so I'm excited about that. Things are, you can say they're going to keep getting better. And so how long says banned in the USA? And Mr. P. Good to see you. So they ordered food, but I fell asleep. And sorry to hear that. Anderson says, Matthew left. He's not there. Oh man. I'm behind. Well, thank you for. Math Pig, nonetheless, for all the work that math pig has done. We do appreciate that help. And in hacks, thank you, James mods and guests and everyone in the audience. I agree in hacks. Thank you. Appreciate that. And Brookshaw says, did you say, I did the Twitch chat? I just did. Did you miss it? Maybe this is an old chat. I'm catching up. And then case on says, thank you for tagging heat shield. Thanks for tagging the discord for case on Casson. And paradigm shift music says, thanks so much for another great debate. We got mad appreciation for you, James. Thanks for your kind words. Seriously, that means a lot. So this platform is awesome. Thank you. That's seriously encouraging. And I just appreciate all the positivity folks, because yeah, I'm excited. We are changing the culture. Don't give up. I know that sometimes people are like, man, I've heard people say it sometimes and it's like, hey, we're open to constructive criticism. So it is true. 99% of the people in the chat, they rock. They're positive. They'll attack the arguments instead of the person. That is awesome. However, at the same time, it is true that once in a while, there's like 1% who will sometimes attack the individual. And it can seem discouraging because it's like, oh, there's a lot. And it's like, don't worry, folks, we're going to get through this. We are going to change the culture of modern day debate. Believe me, we value fairness and we also value attacking the arguments rather than the person as we respect our guests and we appreciate our guests. And so believe me, that cultural change is happening. It's improving. It's getting better. That's for sure. I can already tell. And that's something that's super encouraging to me. And so thank you, mods, for doing a great job of, we want to, I think the, the good thing too is thank you mods for echoing that message because it's, it's good for one person for me to say the message and say, Hey, folks, we want to encourage you to attack the arguments instead of the person, that's a good start. However, when moderators, when you guys do a great job as you have of. Carrying that message forward and saying that's true, like friendly reminder, folks want to encourage you to attack the arguments instead of the person. That absolutely helps transform the culture as well. Cause you guys are leaders here. Like we do appreciate you and people do consider that. Gabrielle Reel said, just subscribed. Thank you, Gabrielle. We're excited. Appreciate you doing that. And we are going to work hard to keep putting out excellent content. This is, you get, this is great. Like tonight was awesome. And so we're excited about the fact that that's funny. Just saw an old front from high school. Becky Stoddard, glad to see you. Thanks for coming by. I says, hi, Jimmy. That's right. I used to go by Jimmy all the time, Jimmy or Jim in high school, all the way up until I say it was like only recently. What was it when I went to Texas Tech 2016? No, that couldn't be, it had to be earlier than that 2014 was when I left. Yeah. So that's, but anyway, you'd call me Jimmy or Jim. I'm cool with that. Good to see you. Becky Stoddard in the live chat things. And then I forgot I've got it playing on Facebook tonight. So yeah, but thanks for coming by Becky. And so yeah, folks, we're excited about it as it is going to be epic in the future tonight. I was thrilled. I mean, you guys, like these are like high profile debates. And I don't know if I had told you, yeah, we've got just a lot of upcoming juicy ones that you don't want to miss. So as I had mentioned, let me show you this one. Yeah, I had shown you guys, you don't want to miss this one. Believe me, you will be crying in your cornflakes if you miss this one. This one between Vosh and T jump, juicy, controversial.  You like the controversial topics. And there's nothing wrong with that, folks. Believe me, you enjoy it. I enjoy it. Everybody enjoys it. And so you don't want to miss this controversial debate that's coming up next Wednesday. So it's going to be a lot of fun and we hope to see you there. And so good to see you as well. Ball Diablo. Thanks for coming by. And then also Church of Entropy. Glad you came by as well. So thanks, everybody. Invisible Ninja, good to see you there. Thanks, everybody, for your support. Love you guys. I hope you guys have a great rest of your night. Keep sniffing out the reasonable from the unreasonable folks. And we will be back in fact, what is it? Oh, it's Wednesday. So we'll be back Friday. You guys, let me show you this one. You guys maybe didn't know about this.  I want to show you this. You don't want to miss it. I'm going to pull this in. Let me just click on image this Friday. I don't know if you guys have seen it on our course or I should say that course page on the modern day debate homepage. You guys maybe haven't seen this yet because I just put it up right before this debate started. That's right. YouTube's favorite daughter, Erica, will be returning. She is on the right side of the screen. So Erica will be returning this Friday. Gutsick Gibbon, as she's known on YouTube, she'll be debating Dr. Jeffrey Meldrum. That's going to be a juicy one. And this is going to be our last debate on Bigfoot. It's a fun topic, but we've got to give the Bigfoot debate or some rest. And so we are excited about it. We appreciate it, but we know people like variety too. And so this is going to be the last time we do the Bigfoot topic for a while, even though it is a fun topic. I love these debates and I love Dr. Meldrum too, really pleasant fellow. And Erica, yeah, I got nothing against Erica. No, I'm teasing. I actually love Erica. She's like my little sister or something. Look, what a geek. Look, look at her. But anyway, I'm just teasing. She's all right. So let me, let me tell you about that, that you don't want to miss. And then thanks for your reminder. Someone just reminded me in the chat. Oh, yeah, you're right. You guys, we are pumped about this one too. This is coming up shortly. Dr. Kenny Rose, Christian scholar, as well as apologist, will be debating the atheist juggernaut of a debater, Matt Dillahunty, whole baby. It's going to be epic. That's coming up on June 5th. That is on our YouTube homepage. And also, though, folks, this is a crowdfund. So basically I had promised the speakers these honorariums that I had determined. I said, Hey, we'll get these to you. And I am absolutely determined to get these honorariums to our guests. As they have basically, I mean, Matt in particular, as an example, has done a ton for this channel. In fact, probably like a fifth of the views, maybe even a quarter of the views for this channel have come from Matt. And so I want to encourage you folks, join the crowdfund with us.  Like, I don't know about that.  And it's like, well, let me show you because you might actually be surprised that you can join this crowdfund, which helps make this event actually happen is for the price of a cup of coffee. I mean, look at that. Just three bucks, folks, is the lowest tier. Which is like, you can theoretically, if you just want to throw a dollar in, that helps too. But three dollars is the suggested lowest tier. And that helps us make this event possible. And we want to show this to the public so that it's live streamed in front of the public. We don't want to do it where you basically last time we had it such that you guys remember the last Kickstarter that we did with Dr. Michael Shermer. So that's on screen right now. Last time we did this, because we've successfully done this and it was epic is last time we had it where if you wanted to watch it live, if you threw a few bucks into the Kickstarter at minimum, or the crowdfund, I should say, then, you know, you could watch it live, we'd give the link out on the crowdfund page. We are considering doing that. If not a lot of people sign up to where we're like, OK, we're kind of getting nervous where we might do that. But so far, I'm pretty optimistic that this one will be public as of right now. I am excited that I think that the live show will be public. But remember, I mean, we still need people to throw into the crowdfund to make it happen.  I've appreciated what you guys have done. Like that's a way of showing that appreciation. And really, it does mean a lot. As you guys, this opens opportunities and doors for us. As as we successfully do, you could say, as we successfully utilize this crowdfund strategy, I'm not joking. I'm serious. Like I I'm kind of hoping to get like our next kind of level of guest debaters. Like I've heard that Dawkins would be outside of our crowdfund price range. But like Richard Dawkins is somebody that I have on my list of people that we want to host, as well as maybe like Sam Cedar and Crowder. Like if if Steven Crowder and Sam Cedar were willing to do a debate and we said, hey, like imagine this, folks, let's say the next crowdfund. Because the last one you remember, we raised over three grand and that helped us ensure that we could have inspiring philosophy debate. Michael Schermer, the New York Times bestselling author, as well as president of Skeptic Magazine. That was an epic headline or event. And if this strategy is successful, which we believe it will be, we think we can keep increasing this because the subscribers are growing. I mean, when we did the first one, I think we had 30,000. No, we had. I think it was like, yeah, we didn't even have 40,000 subscribers. So we have 6,000 more people now that are potentially willing to kind of throw in for the Kickstarter or I should say the crowdfund. And so like we're determined, folks, like we are absolutely determined. We're going to make it.  I mean, let me, I don't know if you guys want to see this, but I'll show you the picture from the last car wash that me and T jumped in. I mean, I don't know. Maybe you like that, but I can tell you maybe don't. We are excited, folks. And I don't care if me and T jump in Steven Steen have to go out and do a car wash in order to make this happen. We are going to reach our goal for the fundraiser. And so we're excited to consider joining with us. That crowdfund is linked in the description. I'll throw it into the chat as well. But yeah, we've successfully done it. That's the picture that you're seeing on screen right now. And want to let you know, though, folks, we have these epic perks. And so, for example, I showed you, you know, it's three bucks just to make the event happen that helps appreciate that. And the next tier is six dollars. That just helps us do some promo as we want to kind of put the word out for the debate, in other words, like we want to publicize it. And then also your name on screen is the next tier. But some of these are really cool as I'm excited. Let me show you these. So these are new ones, namely at the top right of your or the top of your screen. The modern day to make coffee mug 25. That's a cool perk, folks. What is cooler than your own modern day to make coffee mug as well as the next tier and embossed postcard. And then modern day to make t-shirt. We're excited that that's been a popular one. So it's at least four. It might be more people have signed up now. And I know that the temptation as to what's the word looking for?  But it does help us like plan to know, like, for example, if we're really behind on the day before the event, that's when I might go reach out to some people who like, because there are people who have said, like, hey, if you have a crowd fund or something like that and you look like you're in trouble, like reach out to me, like, let me know. So it helps, like, me to know, like where we're planning in terms of how many people are excited to jump into the crowd fund. And if you haven't done it before, you might be like, oh, man, I'd love to get a modern day to make t-shirt plus help make sure this event happens. Want to let you know it's a piece of cake, folks. So let me show you on screen right now. You to jump into any go go and help support the crowd fund. You don't even have to have your own. Like you don't have to. What's the word I'm looking for? You don't have to create an account with Indiegogo. You can just breeze on through the opening by signing in with Facebook.  And so want to let you know, like, it's pretty darn convenient in terms of signing up.   And I showed you guys already, I have last was in December. It was the first time that I was part of a crowd fund. And I mostly did this. Don't tell Brenton. It'll break his heart. I love Brenton. So if he's listening right now, Brenton, don't feel hurt. I love it. And I'm going to save it forever. Like I'm really thankful for this. I'm not a huge comic book guy, but I did it because I wanted to support Brenton because Brenton, this is Snow White Zombie Apocalypse. Brenton makes comics and they have no political stance or anything. So I'm not trying to push anybody's, you know, certain beliefs. But I appreciate Brenton so much. And so I want to let you know that basically I had done this in terms of Brenton wanting to support Brenton as we really I appreciate him. And so he's, by the way, you guys didn't know. So like Dr. Humor, the way we got connected to Dr. Humor was through Brenton, the way that we got connected to Dr. Friedman was through Brenton. Like, and so anyway, thankful to Brenton. A lot of people think like, oh, man, like, well, anyway, long story short. So yeah, jump it back into the old chat. Cassan have a great night. Said later, gooders, thank you for coming by and CD. Good to see you in the old chat again. And Reverend Arrow, thanks for coming by said there is a discord mod chat. There is the moderators have chats in there where they talk about like the rules and kind of problem solving or like somebody, let's say somebody says something in chat and they're like, does this break the rules? They're like, and so they'll kind of like as a group discuss it. And then Brian Griffin says out of the 10 months, 10 most viewed videos on this channel, Matt is in nine of them. That's true. And that's why we're like, we want to say thank you to Matt as Matt has helped this channel grow a lot. And we really do appreciate that. And then Reverend Arrow said maybe $50 if I get a t-shirt. Not only that, but remember, folks, you don't just get everything at the tier that you sign up for. You get everything below that tier as well. So if you signed up for, let's say the t-shirt, you get not only the t-shirt, but also the modern database coffee mug. Pretty cool. And then also like the modern database, like the event postcard that we send out with the embossed modern database logo on it and then your name on screen. Like you get all of that. So I should, man, I don't I don't think I mentioned that enough because that's something that's actually like really important. And I should mention it. And I'm going to write that down right now, namely. Mention you get all the perks below the perk you sign up for as well. So yeah, I mean, yeah, let's say you did modern database t-shirt and like you get the coffee mug, you get your name shouted out on screen at the end of the event. The event. So I'm like, man, you guys, like, it's pretty awesome. And coffee zealot. Thanks for coming by. Appreciate you hanging out with us. And then they said, where is the link to donate? I can't find it. Oh, you're right. Oh, sorry about that. Let me get that out of the out of the description box. So it is in the description box, I think, unless I forgot. Oh, no, I forgot. Oh, my gosh, you guys, I'm sorry. Oh, I can't believe I forgot. I thought I checked it right before this debate, but it was another one. OK, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to grab that link for you right now. And I'm so sorry that I completely miffed on that. So I didn't get a lot of sleep last night. But I am excited, nonetheless, about this event. And so it's going to be epic. And I am excited, though, somebody actually just made a contribution today. It was like five o'clock or so. And so the the the crowdfund Indiegogo asks us not to. They asked me not to like share people's names, so I can't. Can't name them, but I can say thank you to the person who did give today. And so we're excited about that, though. And thank you, Reverend Arrow, for your support of that next Matt DeLondi debate. And then, oh, Fishtrog Dolphin says, when is debate a get in? It is on the 29th. So Saturday, the 29th, folks, you really do. You don't want to miss it. It's seriously, it's going to be really cool. It is worthy of the name debate again, not just because it is not just because it's 12 hours. It's going to be a 12 hour stream. So if you, for some reason, want to stare at me for 12 hours straight, I will be there on Saturday, the 29th, starting at 9 30 in the morning mountain time. So 11 or no, let me 9 30. It's 9 30 in the morning. Um, no, no, no, Eastern time, 9 30 in the morning, my time. Yes, that's right, which is 11 30. So 11 30 a.m. Eastern time, we will start. And it'll go to 11 30 p.m. Eastern time. So it'll be a full 12 hours. And so you don't want to miss that, folks. It's going to be a juicy one. And I can tell you the debates within it are going to be awesome as well. And so we're still finalizing one or two of them, but it's going to be really cool. And Brooks Chavez says, you have two debates booked for the 21st. Thanks for letting me know that. I think I forgot. I must have just sometimes when I, you guys probably have noticed this. Sometimes a debate will pop up on one or two debate and then it'll be like, wait, why does it say that it's going to be right now? And it's like, yeah, it's cause I put the wrong date in the time. Thanks for letting me know about that. And that crowdfund though is linked in the chat and I'm going to throw it into the description right now. So thanks for your, wait a minute. Even, oh, where I'm like baffled cause I updated, I updated this this morning. I know I did. And for some reason right now, yeah, cause I know I put Dr. Michael humor second link in this morning. I must not have saved it. I don't know what was going on, but the crowd, crowdfund link. Okay. That is now in the description box. And so if you want to access it that way as well, you can. So I want to say thanks everybody for all of your support though. Thanks for making this channel great. Thanks for, I'm excited about the future folks we've got. And that's the thing too, is I know that some people are like, man, I don't, you know, like, I don't know about this debate regarding the crowdfund, but you know, maybe if you got like somebody epic in the future, like I know some people are like, if you got Steven Crowder and Sam Cedar, then oh baby, I would sign up for that crowdfund in an instant. And I'm like, well, I want to encourage you to consider this. We do plan on doing those types of debates in the future.  That lets us know that the strategy works is that if you're just like, nah, $3, I mean, it's less than a cup of coffee, right? It's like, yeah, like, no big deal. You know, a lot of people, like they're, you know, they'll like, let's say they put in a super chat for like $5 and like, yeah, it's like $3, like, is that if you throw in on it, that helps us know that it's a strategy that like we can have more confidence in. And thus when we get to the point of like, oh, Richard Dawkins, like how much would he, what is, what would his honorarium be? I'm going to be more likely to say like, yep, people are like consistently, they dig the crowdfund and even if they just throw a few bucks in like, you know, we have people that support it. So thanks everybody. We appreciate you. We love you guys. Thanks for making this a blast. And so it really is a true pleasure to have you. So we hope you all keep sifting out the reasonable from me and reasonable. We're excited about the future and thanks everybody. We will see you on Friday. Welcome to the show. It's Friday. Thanks everybody.


I'm often asked what my opinion about a diet or disease is. Who cares what my or anyone else's opinion is? All we should care about is what the science says. What does the best available balance of evidence publish to the peer-reviewed medical literature have to say right now? Welcome to the Nutrition Facts Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Michael Greger. I know so many people who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, the most common cause of dementia. I bet you do too. In fact, more than 6 million people in the U.S. have it. So how do we avoid becoming one of those statistics? That's a main thrust of my forthcoming book, Hound Not to Age, but in the meanwhile here's a discussion of some little-known risk factors in this, our 300th podcast episode. In our first story, we explore the effect of pesticides on Alzheimer's disease. Although there's a growing list of Alzheimer's disease susceptibility genes, even if you put them all together, they count for less than half of all Alzheimer's cases. The single most compelling piece of data on the potential control we have over the disease is the fact that if you have identical twins with the exact same genes, even if one gets Alzheimer's, the other usually does not. So we have to think about all the other contributing factors beyond just genetics. In my video on pesticides and cancer, I talked about this study. There's a list of chlorinated pesticides, including DDE, a metabolite of DDT, that are classified by the EPA as probable human carcinogens. But in the study, blood levels of DDE and others were associated not with increased cancer mortality, but increased risk of other cause mortality. This led researchers to speculate it may be due to an associated increased risk of diabetes or dementia. I've talked previously about the diabetes link. What about dementia? Elevated serum pesticide levels and risk for Alzheimer's disease. A research team at Rutgers found significantly higher blood levels of DDE and Alzheimer's disease patients compared to controls.  Those with the highest levels were at about four times the odds of being demented with Alzheimer's.  Put all these studies together, and there does indeed seem to be a link consistent with data showing about a doubling of risk for developing dementia among those acutely pesticide poison. Among U.S. elders, DDT and its breakdown product DDE are also associated with increased risk of cognitive decline in general. DDT was extensively used in the United States from the 1940s to the 60s. At its peak, we were churning out 180 million pounds a year. And it's still in our bodies to this day, contaminating the bloodstreams of more than 90% of Americans. In DDE, the pesticide link to quadrupling the odds of Alzheimer's were at the highest levels. It's still in our bodies because it's still in the food supply. In my last video on the topic, I noted that the levels of DDT, DDE, and other banned pesticides and pollutants were much lower in the breast milk from a vegetarian mother compared to breast milk of a non-vegetarian sister. And the largest difference was noted for DDE, which was four times lower in the vegetarian sister. These toxins build up the food chain, so it makes sense that the most contaminated foods are meat, fish, and dairy products, 5 to 10 times higher levels in meat, eggs, fish, and dairy than what we find in plant foods. And unfortunately, cooking doesn't destroy pollutants like DDE. In fact, it may make them even more concentrated. And this is for a pesticide that may increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease as much as if you carried the so-called Alzheimer's gene, ApoE4. In our next story, we look at the role of meat on Alzheimer's disease. What is behind the dramatic increase in dementia in Japan over recent decades? Maybe it's rising obesity rates, or the increases in cholesterol, saturated fat in the iron, from increases in animal products in meat. Overall calories just went up about 10% in Japan, whereas animal fat and meat consumption rose 500%, about 10 times the rise in sugary junk. Now, during this time span, rice consumption went down, but the thinking is that rather than white rice somehow being protective, maybe they were just eating something worse instead. It's like when you find fish consumption is correlated with less disease. You wonder if it's because they're eating that rather than some worse meat. If you look across multiple countries, you see a similar pattern, with the most important dietary link to Alzheimer's appearing to be meat consumption with eggs and high-fat dairy also maybe contributing. There appears to be a really tight correlation between Alzheimer's and per capita meat supply. And then studies within countries uncover similar findings with Alzheimer's and cognitive decline associated with meaty, sweetie, fatty diets, whereas most plant foods were associated with risk reduction. This could be for a variety of reasons. Several products tend to have more copper, mercury, lead, cadmium, nofolate, butt-containing, saturated fat, and cholesterol, and pro-inflammatory advanced glycation end products. So many mechanisms that dietary modification may be our best bet for reducing risk of Alzheimer's disease. But how do we know its cause and effect? The evidence that meat consumption is causally linked to Alzheimer's disease? Well, there's the strength of the association, the consistency across different types of studies, the fact that the dietary changes preceded the risk of dementia, the dose response, more meat linked to more risk, a bunch of plausible mechanisms. We know meat is a risk factor for other chronic diseases, but there's never been a randomized controlled trial to put it to the test. When you read reviews of the damaging effects of high-fat diets to the brain and cognition, a number of factors are proposed to account for the high-fat diet-induced damage to the brain, oxidative stress, insulin resistance, inflammation, changes to blood vessels of the integrity of the blood-brain barrier. But these are based mostly on studies of rodents. Yes, high-fat diets can cause energy dysfunction in the brain, based on fancy MRI techniques. With CT scans, you can follow this intracranial artery stenosis, this brain artery clogging over time, and follow the progression from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer's disease. Those who only had low-grade stenosis were pretty stable over time, in terms of their cognitive function and ability to dress themselves in other activities of daily living, whereas those with more clogging started slipping over the years, and those who started out with the most brain atherosclerosis rapidly went downhill, and twice as likely to progress to full-blown Alzheimer's. Chronic consumption of standard Western diets enriched in saturated fat and cholesterol may compromise our cerebrovascular integrity, compromise the blood vessels in our brain. So, of course, drugs are recommended. Pharmacological modulation of diet-induced dysfunction, but why not just try to eat healthier in the first place? Finally today, we look at reducing glyco toxin intake to ward off Alzheimer's. Each of us has about 6 billion miles of DNA. How does our body keep it from getting all tangled up? There are special proteins called histones, which act like spools with DNA as the thread. Enzymes called sirtuins wrap the DNA around the histone spools, and in doing so, silence whatever genes were in that stretch of DNA, hence their name sirtuins, which stands for Silencing Information Regulator. Although they were discovered only about a decade ago, the study of sirtuins has become one of the most promising areas of biomedicine, since they appear to be involved in promoting healthy aging and longevity. Suppression of this key host defense is considered a central feature of Alzheimer's disease. Autopsies of Alzheimer's victims reveal that loss of sirtuin enzyme activities closely associated with the accumulation of plaques and tangles in the brain that's characteristic of Alzheimer's disease. Sirtuins appear to activate pathways that steer the brain away from the formation of plaque and tangled proteins. Because a decrease in sirtuin activity can clearly have deleterious effects on nerve health, they're trying to come up with drugs to increase sirtuin activity, but why not just prevent its suppression in the first place? Glycotoxins in food suppress sirtuin activity. These so-called advanced glycation end products are AGEs. Our modern diet includes excessive AGEs, which can be neurotoxic. High levels in the blood may predict cognitive decline over time. If you measure the urine levels of glycotoxins flowing through the bodies of older adults, those with the highest levels went on to suffer the greatest cognitive decline over the subsequent nine years. As we age, our brain literally shrinks. In our 60s and 70s, we lose an average of 5 cubic centimeters of total brain tissue volume every year, but some lose more than others. Brain atrophy may be reduced in very healthy individuals, and a few people don't lose any brain at all. Normally we lose about 2% of brain volume every year, but that's just the average, although the average brain loss for folks in their 70s and 80s was 2.1%. Some lost more, some lost less, and some men and women lost none at all over a period of four years. Researchers in Australia provided the first evidence linking AGEs with this kind of cerebral brain loss. So, limiting one's consumption of these compounds may end up having significant public health benefits. Because search-win deficiency is both preventable and reversible by dietary AGE reduction, a therapeutic strategy that includes eating less AGEs may offer new strategy to combat the epidemic of Alzheimer's. Some of these glycotoxins are produced internally, particularly in diabetics, but anyone can get them from smoking and eating, particularly foods high in fat and protein. In a previous video, I listed the 15 foods most contaminated with glycotoxins, mostly chicken, but also pork, beef, and fish, which may help explain why those that eat the most meat may have tripled the risk of getting dementia compared to longtime vegetarians.

In this presentation, we will take a look at the manufacturing concept of a just-in-time inventory system. The concept of a just-in-time inventory system is going to be that we're going to start to put together the inventory after we get the order. In other words, we're going to get an order from the customer and then start to put together the inventory. For example, if we're a Dell computer and we're putting together computers, we're going to get the order for the computer before we start to assemble it. There are pros and cons to a just-in-time system. One of the pros is it's often considered to be more customer-focused because we can allow for the customer to give us a bit more customization if we're going to create and put together the computer after it has been ordered. It's also helpful that we may not have to have as much cost in just inventory being stored if we're able to just create these computers as we go. We don't need as much warehouse space. We don't need to just be storing computers. We don't need to deal with the risk of those computers that already have been assembled to go down in value and no longer be desirable in the market. We can just build them as we go. The concept is we're going to get the customer order and then we're going to schedule production at that point in time. Notice this has to happen pretty quickly because we want to get the computer out pretty quickly. All these components of production then are going to have to happen smoothly. That's going to be one of the downfalls of course. If there's any problems with any of these processes along the way to the production of the computer, then we don't have any warehouse in order to just go and pick up a computer. That's going to be one of the risks that we have. Then we're going to get the materials just in time for production. We're going to go ahead and get the materials. That means we have to have a good relationship with our suppliers and make sure that we can get everything we need at the point in time of order. As long as these things are all secure, then the just-in-time system can the benefits will outweigh the cost. Then we want to complete the just in time for assembly. We're going to complete the parts so that we can assemble it and then we're going to complete products just in time to ship. Notice all these things are basically happening very quickly after the customer has made an order. All these links along the way for it to work well need to have good communication with our suppliers. We need to be able to assemble everything in a systematic process and have everything done fairly quickly. If that's the case, then we have the benefit of being able to have a more customer-centered design so that we can have some more flexibility in the types of products we're going to put together. That's generally going to be beneficial in what customers are looking for oftentimes these days.


And if we oppose them, then we're the devil. Well, then guess what, motherfucker? I am Lucifer Rising. My relationship with Christian death began at a very, very early stage in my life. Ross Williams, for me, was just like, you know, a pioneer. One of the reasons I'm doing music, not too long ago, before I was in prayers, I was in this band called Vampire. Before we played, I would always walk on stage and set up a shrine dedicated to Ross Williams. The first time I met Ross was when they had a show with us, when I was in the adolescence. I walk in and there's this character in the mirror, kind of premium himself and everything. I was really just enamored with him. I look over at him, he looks over at me, and I'm just like...  His hair was long, and it would block everyone from seeing what was really going on.  To be in the punk scene, going against the grain, people didn't really know what to make of us. A lot of the punks would be confused and either be pissed off or say, oh, this is cool. It was time, basically, for something like that to come along. I mean, there was Bauhaus and there was, you know, 45 Graven bands like that, but they tended to not have the real dark side, you know? A couple of years ago, George and James and I were talking about forming a new group in the Christian Death vein, kind of a reflection to only theater of pain. I thought, well, let's go to song title names. We went down the line, Cavity, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, and every time it was used, it was used, it was used. Then I thought, wait a minute, we didn't do, we didn't, what about prayer? Then our roommate said, have you guys seen this article of this band? They're like Chologoth, and they're called prayers. I came here to take what's rightfully mine. It's always been mine.   We're working with Rick, G-Tain and James, you know? For me, it's almost like I was already putting it in the universe.  We invite them into our world. It's really organic.  Then we just got in there and just let the views take over. That was the magic in what was happening that day. For David, it's nothing. David doesn't hear sounds. He sees shapes, shapes and colors. David can speak for himself, but David trusts me enough to speak for him because he knows that I only speak the truth. Cursed be thy blessings. It's about polarity.  I want to find out about life in Fontana. I want to find out about life in Fontana. Ross, the enigma, the person that not many people really got a chance to know. It was very closed off and unapproachable. Ross was a poet, and I think they were as a poet as well. Looking for truth, real truth, where I think there's very little. Lefer, with how he approaches his music and his work, they're going against a stereotype within their own world that most people cannot relate to. For Lefer, from the day I met him, it was nothing but this honest and sincere... Welcome into my world. We speak, therefore it is. Then it bears fruit. That's what's beautiful about everything that's happening. We are able to reflect on the past, on the life that we've lived.   I lost so many things. It was my right of passage, man. It was my right of passage. I've been anointed in blood.   When I look into their eyes, I see unconditional love. And they see it in mine. I came here to gather my motherfucking people and let them know what motherfucking time it is.

But not everyone was a fan of Mr. Outro's thumbnails. Muddy Finns wrote that Mr. Outro's thumbnails are good but they are the same design every time and his advice is to change the colors and layout of the thumbnails. Just like Muddy Finns does. Let's look at his thumbnails. This is Muddy Finns channel and these are his thumbnails. I'll move out of the way. So you can see them. They're quite different. Each one has a unique style.  I would love to know everybody's opinion on which thumbnails style is better. Click that eye up there to take the poll of is Muddy Finns thumbnail or Muddy Finns thumbnails better or are Mr. Outro thumbnails better. Moving on to channel trailers. The subject of this video accidental entertainment is our first featured channel. He made two trailers and let's take a look at his new one. Roll it! So that's been 19 seconds. Amazing music. Pumping. Energetic. Love the energy of your intro but it doesn't say much about your channel which is not bad because I'm now so pumped I want to watch the rest of your intro. So your gameplay, your vlogging and my only suggestion is to add a little bit of your own voice so let us hear from your words what your channel is about. What do you guys think of this channel trailer? Do you feel the energy of the video is enough and we don't need to hear the commentary as I just suggested we do? Tell us in the comments below. So well done accidental entertainment and that's a pretty catchy title for your channel as well. Did you come up with that by yourself? Next featured channel trailer is by Smokey Koala and he finally made a channel trailer and he's asking for feedback. Actually Frosted Frick's already gave him feedback. He said he checked out his channel trailer and he's got some pretty sick no scoping action going on there. Let's have a look. What is up guys I'm the Smokey Koala and this is my channel the Smokey Koala. I am a Twitch live streamer as well as a YouTube gaming content creator. I really hope you enjoy your stay on my channel and well this is what you're going to expect.  So that's been 22 seconds. My feedback to you Smokey Koala is add some music. Do you remember the last channel trailer we just featured? Pumping excited music. I would love to see some of that in your channel trailer but in contrast you speak to the audience that the other channel trailer didn't. You tell us who you are what you do. You're a Twitch and your Twitch streamer and a YouTube gamer and I think we can combine the best of both worlds to make an even better channel trailer. What do you think Smokey Koala? Next channel trailer is by ak47rocksleet or 1337. Here's his channel trailer but it was done by somebody else. Let's learn from it and this is all meant to inspire you to improve your own channel trailer. Take the ideas we are showing you here and use that to improve your channel trailer because you never get a second chance to make a first impression. All right let's take a look at ak47's channel trailer. Roll it! YouTube presents a channel with a really easy to remember name ak47rocks1337 that would actually work really well as a password. A guy who sometimes forgets to turn off caps lock. A channel with a real challenge. Try to understand this. Hey everybody this is me ak47rocks1337. Okay that's actually 27 seconds. Interesting start. I love the graphical effects, motion graphics. It looks very professional but again it takes a long time to get to know anything about you. I think you're just starting to tell us about your channel at 27 seconds. I would love to hear more about you much much sooner but I was excited to watch your intro. I was hooked. Your the commentator was professional, energetic, he had a radio voice and I can imagine you had someone else do this for you which is fine but try to add a little bit more of you into this channel trailer earlier on is my suggestion. Next channel trailer is by gmfp lino rabbit at picotch. That's a mouthful. Hey George I've tried to improve my channel trailer thanks to your wonderful tips. You're welcome. And the freedom family of course it's mostly the freedom family because that's who we are. We help each other grow together by giving each other tips and advice and reviews so we can all benefit because that is the spirit of freedom. We all help each other grow together as a family. Let's take a look at your channel trailer. Okay that's 24 seconds. Not English but he used English subtitles so non-French speaking people. Parlez-vous français? Remember that video? So non-English speaking people can understand what you are saying. Well done to make an international trailer and I love the energy. You keep switching the focus so no one can get bored watching your channel trailer. I love it. I think you've done a great job. What do you think of the channel trailer? Tell us in the comments below. One more channel trailer before we announce the winner today. Puppy Monkey Baby. What a name. Love it. George I made a channel trailer in cartoon form. Here's the link. Let's take a look. Roll it. Okay it's been 15 seconds. I'm a little bored I'm afraid. The choice of music is like elevator music and it's a little hard to get excited watching a cartoon hand right about your channel. I would love to hear you commentate while this is going on. Have a passionate voice explaining what is being written about. I think that would add a lot more interest and energy to your channel trailer. What do you think? Tell us in the comments below. And the winner today. The channel that has shown the most improvement in their trailer. The one that I think is the best example of telling us about who you are, getting us excited to subscribe to your channel, telling us what's unique about your channel is Lease Gaming. And he wrote he had loads of fun making this. Let's see today's winner. Roll it. YouTuber. Gamer. Entertainer. Water.  What do you think of Lease Gaming's trailer? Comedy. He showed himself. He talked about what he does.  I'm sure jokingly. And he had some acting going on. A lot of great elements. Very unique channel trailer. Got my interest and excitement. And I'm going to subscribe to your channel. You now have plus one. Oh, did that work? It's not working. It's not working. YouTube doesn't want me to subscribe to your channel, Lease. Let's actually go to your channel and try clicking the subscribe button there. Does that work? Come on. Let's do it. YouTuber. There we go. Now I'm subscribed. Isn't that strange? Should we do more of these types of videos? Tell us in the comments below. I'm thinking you should keep sending us channel trailers that you feel you're proud of, you're improved ones. And if anything really stands out that I think can help everybody by showing it, I will. I will continue spotlighting channel trailers. But I think you're getting tired of entire episodes just focused on channel trailers, aren't you? If you're not, of course, I will keep making these channel trailer focused episodes. But I think we need to move on to other topics as well, such as thumbnails perhaps, or channel banners, or commentary style, or audio quality, or entertainment value, or a lot of other potential categories of contests to encourage you to improve your channel and grow faster. We are here to help you grow by giving you inspiration and motivation to do the things that will make everybody grow faster together. Who's with me? The spirit of freedom. And who am I? I am George Sunpai. This is the most popular name given to me by you, the Freedom Family. I am George, CEO and founder of this beautiful, wonderful family called, let's do it again, Freedom.

My name is Joanne O'Reilly. I'm studying a Bachelor of Secondary Education at Griffith University. I have a wonderful husband and seven children. I just loved having a big family. I guess it was chaotic at times. I'd push one in the pram and one would stand on the front and one would run alongside. When I started university, my family was always going to be my first priority and so it needed to be flexible. I wasn't going to allow me studying to detract from my primary role of being there for my kids. When I sat in my first lecture, I sat next to this young girl who started discussing why we enjoyed maths and she said, maths is the language of the universe. Our lecturers are just wonderful, wonderful people. All the lectures are recorded. If it didn't have that opportunity to be able to watch a lecture at home, that would be a deal breaker. I'm actually graduating this year. I would love to go out country where education is needed, where teachers are needed.  You want to make a difference in the world. Flexibility to me means I can still be a wife and mother, my first passion. But I also get to fulfil my dream, my passion of becoming a maths teacher.


Hello everybody and welcome back to The Average! Today we're gonna dive straight into the video because I've done many of these intros before and we're getting into it. So today we are painting over the movie cover of Goosebumps and I couldn't even figure out who this was written by. It's obviously adapted from the screenplay and it has a little foreword by RL Stein and then it's based on the screenplay by Darren Lemke and the story is by another couple of guys so it's kind of a collaborative thing I guess it's just the movie story but I wanted to paint something over the top of it even though it is a book about the movie it's kind of a strange one here but I really like Goosebumps I think there's just such fun like stories and I bet you guys watch the show when you were younger maybe and maybe read some of the books. I remember my sister had the one with the doll on it and then you press the button and it's eyes would flash and it really freaked me out when I was little.  The reason that I'm painting over book covers is because I don't like book covers on books I think they should be separate entities. I can understand like trying to mark it for people to read the book who like the movie but I think you would probably figure that out by yourself like okay this book is based on that. This is my book and I'm painting over it so you know if you guys have a problem just just leave the video simple as that. I always have to give that little disclaimer it's kind of annoying really but I think most people tend to like these book cover paintovers and I really enjoy doing them so that's why I've been doing a few more recently on my channel. So I started off by layering down a color of the gouache from the Artex so Artex are the company who have made these jelly gouache that I'm using and they're also doing a competition with me and we're gonna give away five of these jelly gouache palettes and also lots of alcohol markers to five winners and then we're gonna have a lot of other winners so we're gonna have ten smaller winners who are gonna get a surprise gift and then everybody who enters a competition is gonna get a discount code of Amazon for Artex products so that's pretty cool if you guys are interested and see the link in the description basically all you have to do is follow me and Artex and then create your own book cover so you can paint the book cover draw it use digital it's open worldwide you can make it in your own style or you can recreate a cover that you've seen anything goes and more experimental the better because I've been really seeing some really cool experimental pieces and that really inspired me to go ahead and use some sticker paper in this piece because in the past I've done a lot of paper art stuff and I kind of haven't done that for a while so this time I was like why don't I combine the two things and painting over the movie covers with the kind of paper art and I realized I had this see-through sticker paper and I really wanted to play with layering effects with the see-through sticker paper but also the non-transparency the non-transparent sticker paper I wanted to use as well so I wanted to have this like old creepy house as the main asset of this image so that was going to be like the main thing that we would see and I've always realized that when I'm painting on books it's kind of difficult to do a little bit of detail so I thought this would be a perfect time to bring out just using paper art so like the sticker and I created this these watercolors to create the mansion feel and just I cut around this house this old creepy house and I stuck it down in a place that I thought would look good and I wanted to convey that and keep going with that throughout the whole image and you will see that I start to use different trees and clouds and I think overall it's a really good fun thing that I've created and I'm really I really got into this one which has been I don't know at first I was like thinking it's just gonna be that fun I don't know because it's a very strange one with the the book kind of being about the movie so it did I have a right to paint over it I felt a little bit uninspired by this one because I obviously haven't read this book it is like a book based on the movie I mean it's obviously for little children because I think it's middle grade I will have a little peek through it a bit later but yeah so I'm not necessarily creating stuff that is for the book I've seen the film which isn't actually awful it's quite entertaining it's not amazing but it's quite entertaining and I thought well I mean I could be inspired by that a little bit because or just like my memories of what goosebumps would be with the monsters and the different things and the haunted houses so I'm kind of indicating a haunted Halloween theme for this one really not necessarily what goes on in the book but not necessarily too far removed from it that it didn't couldn't be something inside the book so I hope that makes sense so I just wanted to have fun with this one really I really like the color scheme I think I've been doing this thing again where I'm using pinks and blues and I really need to try and stop using that because I think like it's become my color palette and I need to steer away from it I'm finding it really difficult guys but yeah so we use pink and blue on this one but we used a lot of green and I added some orange pumpkins which you'll see in the end and so maybe we're getting a little bit away from it I hope so I need to try harder really at that anyway getting away from the color problems here's the fun bit so I took some transparent paper and what I wanted to do was have like some water at the bottom of the image as if there's like a lake underneath this hill where things are coming up and I always use transparent paper and I painted like a white cloud of smoke wispy smoke because I wanted to have like a see-through I know like this kind of cloud effect it came out a little bit dark and then I thought in the sense that it's like pure white and I do play around with the transparency of these kind of clouds a little bit later but this is the fun of this sticker paper I found it really fun to just mess around with and then kind of figure out as I went where I wanted to put each piece so I was just layering down gouache on top of these transparent water transparent sticker paper and then cutting out shapes and just playing around with it as if it was just I don't know something I could make up as I go along a bit of a mosaic and layering stuff I really enjoyed it so I did like a layer of this green to kind of signify maybe some slime like a lake of slime and I realized it was too opaque so I wanted to dull that down a bit so you could see the water coming through underneath and it would have that layering effect that I wanted and it didn't really work out as much as I hoped it would but I think it still looks kind of cool and then I go in later with another bit of a layering effect and I just I found it really fun to just keep building up this image as I went so I would be creating a tree at one part waiting for that to dry and then going off to the next bit of the image and waiting for that to dry and then cutting out bits and just figuring out where they would go like placing them down a little bit and just seeing what would look best and if it would fit and then if it didn't fit what could I do maybe I could add like I could paint directly on the book over the top of it or underneath it to give that depth of field and I wanted to signify more that this was a hill going down it looked a little bit flat at the moment so I just painted a kind of a pathway or a lightened up that area I do go back in and I try to develop the areas into little layers of maybe like bushes and undergrowth and things like that and I think it really helps to find the distance within the image as if we're looking up from the lake at the bottom towards the house and we're seeing these plumes of smoke if they're clouds or if there's something on fire behind the hill we don't know and I really think this is a nice indicator of the kind of story that you would be reading if you picked up this goose bumps book because it's kind of a horror element I also decided I wanted a lot of pumpkins in the image so all I did is painted them out on a separate piece of transparent sticker paper and then I wanted to play around with the light coming through so behind it I wanted to play with having some orange light glowing from these pumpkins and I think it sort of works when I come to do it but you guys can be the judges of that I want to do yeah like I said indicate again the distance and the mountains in the background and how this is a hill and I really like this style of kind of circular shapes and I think that looks it looks really nice in my opinion I really like that and then just a kind of a plane I mean it's really funny because the house is so detailed and sort of semi realistic and then you have all this landscape around it which is completely quite cartoonish and I think I don't know why just this simpleness of it it just works for me I really like that and yeah so just sticking down these sticker papers just having fun with it for once I think I've recently been putting a lot of pressure on myself to just do a really good job and although obviously I was trying here I was trying more to have fun with it so just like putting down the trees and cutting out shapes and layering it's just something that haven't done in a while and I realized I really miss this kind of like textual element of building something with my hands we're not necessarily building be doing you know what I mean like creating something from paper and building it up as I go and I just it's something I want to do more of I miss doing the paper art stuff that I've done in the past and I think it's really fun and it's it helps out a bit as well because if you're painting something and then you put six something down you can always tear it off and it gives you the chance to make mistakes and I think it makes you more relaxed as you're doing it it's definitely the most experimental piece I've ever made for a book cover so far because I've just you know I haven't used paper art in any of the other ones and I haven't really gone this far with using my fingers to smudge the paint or just going for like different textures and trying to see if they blend well so I think I should should give myself a pat on the back for that aspect as I was saying before the color scheme is kind of the same as what I usually do so I need to remember that next time to step away from it a little bit I mean I do have some greens and oranges in there so maybe I'm being a bit too hard on myself but I think if you look at my work all together side by side you will see definitely I have a bit of a tendency to be too much into these these these colors have a bit of a bias towards them so you just step away from that I really like the way the pumpkins looked it was so fun to stick them down and experiment with different faces when I was a kid I was never allowed to celebrate Halloween it was just like not really something that we did and so just fun to think about what kind of faces would go on these pumpkins and things like that and I just really like the way it looks and I think it's it's a fun book it's indicating you know because goosebumps is fun at the end of the day it's not it's scary but it's kind of like kids scary where it has that horror element but everything's fine in the end and I think this really shows through this book cover which I really like and of course we had to have some sort of zombie hand appearing up at the bottom of the lake so I used to transparent stick a paper again for this and I created a little hand coming out of the water and then I stuck it down and I painted over the top with the jelly gouache again just to indicate this thing coming out the water and it's maybe it's going up to the house where the light is on and it's just trying to hint at a story within the picture so I just cut off the edges and then took the sticker off the washi tape off and here we are at the end okay everybody that's it that's the final look I'm really pleased with the way this turned out and I thought it was so much fun to play around with using sticker paper and I yeah I really like this version of this cover and I hope that you guys like it too let me know down in the comments don't forget that there's plenty of time to still enter the competition I think a week today I will announce the winners so get those entries in the link is in the description of how to enter and I'm just gonna mention my patrons quickly

Hey guys Alex here from alexfegers.com and in this video I'm going to do an updated Review of the SomniFix mouth strips. These strips allow you to nose breathe at night and stop you from mouth breathing I'm not going to get into their science or the wise and The reasoning behind this because it's been done many times. I'll put some links below This is more for someone who is aware of that Issue and is looking for the best product for their needs Speaking of which I have got multiple Mouth taping mouth Restrictive breathing.  We got multiple types of these products Not just SomniFix I've got a few other ones as well what I'm going to do in the coming weeks is I'm going to compare them all I'm going to test them all and then compare them all in one big video To help you find the best product for your needs and factor in things like price packaging looks appearance The what else what is how well it sticks during the night, of course how well it works safety all these things that's going to come later on So be sure to subscribe to that in this video I'm going to use a scoring system that I've developed for that comparison and I'm going to apply it to this video to this product Sorry, we're going to look at five things stick ability practicality price Safety and everything else and I'm going to score score everything from one to five was there to five based on that and they get an overall score Let's do this first for SomniFix and I'll explain the scoring as we go through first things first stick ability How well does the SomniFix mouth strip stick does it stay on during the night can use it multiple nights? Or is it something that comes off? I mean what happens if you pull it off to have a drink and put it back on does it stick again? Zero being horrible. No it doesn't stick five being yes It's amazing and you can use it for multiple nights. SomniFix would be a five a definite five Not only does it stay on all night? If you take it off to have a drink or you're gonna talk to your wife or something and put it back on it continues to stick But even better than that you can use this again and again and again during the week So I have used this for five I think actually my record is six six nights with one strip before the stick ability If that's a word before the stickiness gave out Obviously, that's not what SomniFix want you to do. They want you to use one strip every night And then dispose of it.  So definitely a five out of five for stick ability For the second category, we look at safety. Is it safe to use? Does it is it easy to remove if there's an emergency? Doesn't allow you to take a little bit of of a breath through your mouth if for some reason you've got a blocked nose Are the other risks such as choking or any other hazards? so I can say with SomniFix that They're really really good on the safety front. In fact, I'm gonna give them a five out of five because Firstly, there is a very little vent Let me show you There's a very very little vent a small vent. I don't know if you can see that in the middle of the strip that allows some breathing through the mouth you can take a few short Small breaths, but it'd be very hard to do it all night So the body reverts back to a breathing through the nose, which is what you want So that is good. Secondly, there are some tabs on this side of the strip here that without any adhesive So that means you can quickly grasp either side and pull it off. Let me show you very easy Likewise with one side finally you can use your tongue and if you've seen my other videos I've gone into this in a little bit more detail But if you push your tongue out, it'll pop it off again.  You're not used to using these So I'm safety for so many fix definitely a five out of five. I haven't had any other issues again I've used these for a year or two. So the next round is practicality. How well does it work?  Now I I'm gonna be a little bit critical of some effects here. So five being yes, it's absolutely perfect zero being It's terrible. It's a waste of time. Um, you could argue this would be a four and a half What I found is if you're breathing through there, it's quite hard It's like restricted breathing almost breathing through a straw a couple of straws It's possible, but it's very it's very hard. So your body wants to breathe through the nose or breathe through otherwise But they're happy nights and this is very very rare But it has happened when I have been in a certain position And I found that hey look I can actually breathe through my mouth. You're like But it does take a conscious thought so whether that would continue all night I don't think so which is why I'm saying it's probably four and a half five Four four on a bad day five on a good day. Um, so, you know what? I'm going to um, I'm going to give them four and a half. Yeah four and a half for the Practicality addiction Next up we have price now so many fix sell a box one box here, which has 28 mouth strips in it They sell that for 22 dollars 22 us dollars. They have given me a discount code to share with you It's alex figures 10 it may have changed by the time you're watching this So always check the description below that will save you 10 percent. So it brings it down to about 20 dollars um, which is which is reasonable uh the the per strip cost so The cost for one strip that works out to be about 70 cents, I believe. Um But the other good thing is You can buy multiple packs at once and the price comes down In fact, you can buy a whole year's worth 12 boxes, I believe it is and this works out to be 55 cents per night Which is you know, it's a good saving 70 odd cents down to 50 odd cents good saving but the um The real plus here is the fact that you can reuse these and this is what I said before you can reuse these over and over Maybe three nights safely Five six nights at a stretch But if you're doing that that's going to drop the price right down if you're doing if you're getting one strip for five nights For instance, I mean and you're doing the whole 12 uh month bulk pack, you know, it's a 10 12 15 cents a night, which is which is very very cheap Most people aren't going to do that even myself like I typically reuse them Two nights maybe three nights now on average. Um, and I feel like that's a pretty good sweet spot where you've still got Plenty of stickiness on there. Um, it's not getting a little bit It's not getting too messy and yuck when you look at it. Um, but you're getting good value as well So based on that based on all those factors, I'm going to give sony fix four out of five for price For the final round I look at everything else. So we look at appearance. We look at ease of application um, the packaging and mess uh travel friendly and whether you can communicate with it so Appearance wise sony fix are great. I mean it is uh slightly Translucent um It is a slightly translucent strip So it's not like bright red and people can see it from a distance In fact, I have one that's on the plane and you know, I'm people walking past probably wouldn't even know So that is that is awesome. Uh ease of use ease of application. Uh, it's It's easy.   Yeah, great. I mean if you're going to wait for a few nights Sure, you can just take all your strips or you can just take what you want You're gonna wait for two three nights take two strips.  Um, very easy to do. In fact, I have um Put some of these in my travel bag.  Let me show you All right, so that's on um, I do have to talk rather loudly and quite pronounced But it is possible. So if you do have this on and I don't know your partner is next to you or Something happens. You you need to communicate something. You can do it. Uh, again, you're not gonna have a full conversation with it but um, it is possible so for the other Everything else category. I'm gonna give somebody fix a four out of five Uh, the only reason I'm not giving them five because they do tick all the boxes The only reason I won't give them a full five is just all the packaging that's involved It's just a lot of paper a lot of plastic and a lot of mess and that is a bit of a bummer When we add up all the scores here, we're going to get a total of 22.5 out of 25 Which is an excellent score for some of the facts and um, it's probably why The probably the most popular um company for mouth tapes on the market But how do they stand up against the computers? Be sure to subscribe because I'm I'm going to test and review all these other um mouth tapes my tape We're going to test hypoallergenic tape. We're going to test the chin straps all sorts of products And uh, I'm going to score them as well and we're going to do a big comparison at the end to see Who comes out as the best mouth tape product on the market? If you did like this video, give me a thumbs up Uh, be sure to subscribe to check out those upcoming videos And if you do want to purchase uh, some so many fixed mouth tapes Be sure to use discount code elixvergus10 and that will save you 10% All right guys, bye


Good morning friends. I am Purva and today we will discuss the following question. In the following find the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular drawn from the origin. x plus y plus z is equal to 1. Let us begin with the solution now. Now we are given that the equation of the plane is x plus y plus z is equal to 1. Let the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular of point P from the origin to the plane be x1, y1, z1. Then the direction ratios of line OPR, x1, y1, z1. Writing the equation of the plane in normal form we get x upon under root 3 plus y upon under root 3 plus z upon under root 3 is equal to 1 upon under root 3. We have got this equation by dividing the equation of the plane by under root 3 where this under root 3 is equal to under root of coefficient of x square that is 1 square plus coefficient of y square that is 1 square plus coefficient of z square that is 1 square. Now this equation is of the form lx plus my plus nz is equal to d which is the Cartesian equation of plane in normal form where we have l, m and n are the direction cosines of the normal and d is the distance of plane from origin. So comparing these two equations we get here 1 upon root 3, 1 upon root 3, 1 upon root 3 are the direction cosines of OP. Now since the direction cosines and the direction ratios of a line are proportional we have x1 upon 1 upon root 3 is equal to y1 upon 1 upon root 3 is equal to z1 upon 1 upon root 3 is equal to some k.  We mark this as 1. Now substituting these values in the equation of the plane we get k upon root 3 plus k upon root 3 plus k upon root 3 is equal to 1. This implies 3k is equal to under root 3 which further implies k is equal to 1 upon root 3. Now putting this value of k in 1 we get x1 is equal to 1 upon root 3 into 1 upon root 3 which is equal to 1 upon 3, y1 is equal to 1 upon root 3 into 1 upon root 3 which is again equal to 1 upon 3 and z1 is equal to 1 upon root 3 into 1 upon root 3 which is again equal to 1 upon 3. Thus the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular are 1 upon 3 comma 1 upon 3 comma 1 upon 3. So we have got our answer as 1 upon 3 comma 1 upon 3 comma 1 upon 3. Hope you have understood the solution. Bye and take care.


According to a new study, professional baseball pitchers with higher accuracy exhibit greater lead knee extension at ball release and lower throwing arm kinetic values than less accurate pitchers. The findings are published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine. Understanding pitching biomechanics can help athletes and their coaches improve pitching performance while potentially reducing injury risk. Although much has been learned so far, the kinematic and kinetic differences between high and low accuracy pitchers still aren't clear. In addition, shoulder and elbow injuries remain major problems among professionals, emphasizing the need to further study and optimize pitching parameters. To learn more about how kinematics relate to pitching accuracy, the study examined motion capture data for 121 professional pitchers who threw 8 to 12 fastballs each during a testing session. The pitchers were grouped based on pitch accuracy and various kinematic and kinetic parameters were compared. Interestingly, the high accuracy pitchers had lower shoulder internal rotation torque, elbow varus torque, and elbow medial force than the low accuracy pitchers, but were able to achieve the same ball velocity. This finding suggests that pitchers with greater accuracy may use their bodies more effectively to create throwing force. It also suggests that high accuracy pitchers might have reduced risk of shoulder and elbow injury because of the theoretically lower strain on these joints. Furthermore, compared to the low accuracy pitchers, the high accuracy pitchers had a straighter lead knee through the entire pitch. This greater knee extension may provide a more stable foundation and improve energy transfer from the lower body to the upper body, allowing the throwing arm to maintain accuracy. Importantly, the pitches for this study were thrown during designated test sessions, not real games, with only fastballs thrown. In addition, the pitch locations were assessed by coaching staff, so bias and human error may have occurred. Finally, actual injury incidents was not examined, so the proposed effects on injury risk are only theoretical. They couldn't be verified. Overall, the results suggest that more accurate professional baseball pitchers exhibit conservative throwing arm kinetics and greater lead knee extension at the end of the pitch than less accurate pitchers. Therefore, professional pitchers seeking to improve their accuracy and theoretically reduce their injury risk may benefit from increasing lead knee extension throughout the pitch.
