Great guy, love his speeches, lectures and interviews!
I’m listening to the book “Turtles All The Way Down” – seems to be a repeating theme here surrounding problems with research integrity….
Possible date:
15 – 18 August 2024
Metabolic Health Conference at
The Wyndham San Diego Bayside Hotel
A fine example –
look at how many ivermectin papers were retracted under pressure or peer reviews by the establishment looking to discredit the drug.
The work of Brian Earl is interesting and relevant here. See for example ” The unbearable asymmetry of … “
Great pressure as always!
Risk calculators are rubbish because they do not include all factors that could influence risk for an individual
Great that you included some useful audience questioning in this video.
A Happy and Healthy Australian Day everyone 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
The marvellous Dr. Mason, the Australian of the Year 🏆 , at least in our circles, where we actually care for our people 🙏
Dr. Mason is a revolutionary person in human history; comparable to Alexander Fleming or Louis Pasteur.
Abuse of statins formed the first crack in my absolute respect for and obedience to doctors. Years ago I was on an expensive statin when I lost my job, so I didn’t refill the prescription. (That’s when I realized the source of my brain fog.) My doctor saw my blood test and asked, so I told him I needed to save money till I found a job. He didn’t care. He heartlessly said if I don’t take the statin he wouldn’t be my doctor. So I left him and found another. I’ve never taken a statin since.
Even before that though I was alarmed. While on the statin, I had to go into his office every three months for a blood test to see if it was damaging my liver. I think back in horror that I was subjected to a substance that needed to be closely monitored to see if it was harming me. But those extra office visits were lucrative for him. I now realize I was preyed upon for profit.
At 18 minutes . . . I wasn’t watching the video, just listening. Pretty sure he said, “caused cancer in bagels”. That’s pretty remarkable! But seriously, Dr. Mason is the best. Crystal clear and well-reasoned as usual.
Great presentation you always do a great job at presenting facts in a simple way that I can understand. I finaly fired my cardiologis last year because he told me I needed additional monitoring because I am at greater risk because I refused to be on Statin.
This doctor speaks so clearly that even I can understand him. I am grateful for his many talks.
I stopped trusting drug companies fifty years ago. My mind hasn’t changed and when my doctor told me I had very high cholesterol and I needed to take…. I just shook my head and said no. She got the message.
Thank you Paul! I have been following your advice for many years.
I remember being assigned to a senior partner at my then GP practice and the various conversations I had with him about Statins. When he first saw my notes he said: “I don’t understand why you haven’t been given statins. It crititical that you’re on them” etc. To which my repeated reply to him on every occasion he brought it up, was that I was happy for him to prescribe any amount of statins. I just wouldn’t take them!
I believe that one or the reasons he was rather put out about this is that his other role is in heart disease research & has published papers about the use of statins.
I’m now with a different practice, but round here it’s very normal for ones GP Practice to also teach/tutor and be a researcher at either of our two primary Universities. But then I do live in Oxford UK.
Q: Where is the Most Dangerous place on Earth?
A: The Doctor’s office.
Thanks Paul. Your contributions to true health will be long-lasting.
I have seen the manipulation of records firsthand… And it was deliberate with complete disregard for my life… They just wanted another “participant” in their “research study”
Shame on every “doctor” that has a part in this…
We shall see how much the State Board of Medical Examiners care about the manipulation of medical records…
