Death and bananas

Thanks @anomalistnews.

Quote of the Day:

I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.

    1. NAD+
      The biological precursor to NAD+ is the generically tagged “Niagen” which I have been consuming for the past 4 months or so. It is an impressive nutrient. I have introduced it to several friends who were succumbing to mid-life metabolic issues, and it has helped them all. It even rescued my old old cat “Aunt Nasty” who is now much revitalized and youthened = a good or a bad thing depending on your perspective. As my wife has wryly observed – not every being is worthy of a longer life.

      1. Niagen
        Niagen sounds expensive, however it’s better known as Vitamin B3. As such it’s much much less expensive as the NAD+ (or H) but then that has been acquired as intellectual property by Cromadex. USA the country that hates competition but loves the money monopolies make. Clearly taking Vitamin B3 has benefits but how much of it is turned into NAD+ by ones body differs. Whatever i’ve been taking B complex and i expect to live another 50 years…

          Niagen and B3 are not the same thing. I have been taking B complex supplements for years and never felt any effects on insulin resistance. Niagen had a very quick and very noticeable effect for the better. These two substance are related but the bioavailability and reactivity of Niagen is of another order at least for myself and some of the friends to whom I have introduced it.

    *An ad for Dan Brown’s Inferno plays in the sidebar*

    Bananas: Rich in vitamins, minerals, and life…unless there’s a wandering spider, then you’re fucked.

    Goddess: Remarkably well preserved.

    Survey: They needed a study for this?

    Semen vortex: THEY NEEDED A STUDY FOR THIS?! Also who wanked that much and why did you make me have to clean my browser history?

    Black vomit: Yes, a completely healthy person can drop dead for various reasons, usually heart related. My completely healthy, fit cousin coded twice from a heart attack. She survived.

    In this case, he was bleeding out into his stomach. Why? Did he have a history with ulcers? Did he ingest something strange? Was he in any foreign country recently? I’m not ruling out poisoning, but usually intentional poisoning leaves telltale signs of what was used. My guess is he died from the massive hemorrhaging into his gut.

    Chimps: I thought this was a well known fact?

    Clowns: They want to fuck with you. Some are just doing it to mess with people, others are using it to commit serious crimes. I think it started innocent and has had copycats every since. The problem arises when the bad clowns start coming out. I still think that part of IT is to promote a movie.

    I don’t know about eternal youth.
    But eternal old age has certainly be found by Keith Richards. The man has looked dead for decades. And yet he still makes good music.
