Thought I'd throw in a cool science article. Scientists have discovered at least one chemical which may spur the body to repair/regrow damaged nerve tissue. Though testing is still in mice, it looks promising for ailments ranging from strokes to heart attacks.

    Forbes Mag is a deep state mouthpiece , I am not saying this article is in any way ,the typical propaganda spewed by this enemy msm. Big Pharma AstraZeneca is not a company that has earned my trust either. That said ,I am blessed to not need this potential relief for dreadful conditions.
    I did find this in the article that would be concerning I would think. “In particular, 1938 works by activating an enzyme, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), which governs cell growth, is involved in various processes like wound healing and can even be hijacked by cancer cells to help them to grow..

      I've found Forbes to allow a wide range of guest articles - some solidly left and some more rational. Forbes has a Youtube channel that is pretty good about highlighting Republican cross-examination of stonewalling bureaucrats and I've been especially enjoying Senator Kennedy asking straightforward questions that idiot Democrats don't want to answer.

      We can certainly discuss the science behind any proposed discovery. I saw this as a cool potential discovery with much testing and verification still needed. I didn't see anything proposing that this was ready for public consumption. Should we be skeptical? Sure - and for exactly the reason you point out. But the possibilities are intriguing and worth further monitoring.

        I would be ecstatic if this research yields a life changing result for those who suffer.
        Forbes , Like FOX they will point out the obvious and yet deny the most important issue election fraud. It is controlled opposition.
        Fair elections destroy the Marxist agenda.
        Con Inc.(Forbes) will be promoting their Desanctimonious alternative to the only real candidate worth considering.
