Bombshell study: Pfizer’s covid jab contents enter the liver, alter human chromosomes and rewrite DNA
Swedish researchers from Lund University have found that the contents of Pfizer’s Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccine” enter human liver cells and convert into DNA. When the jab’s messenger RNA (mRNA) spike proteins are injected into the body, they travel to the liver and trigger DNA located inside the nuclei of liver cells. This increases the expression of the LINE-1 … Continue reading Bombshell study: Pfizer’s covid jab contents enter the liver, alter human chromosomes and rewrite DNA

It also breaks down alcohol in the blood and helps create proteins responsible for blood clotting. This being said, the effects of an unhealthy liver can ripple through … Continue reading At least 80% of people with diabetes also have fatty liver, warns endocrinologist

Auto-brewery syndrome – when gut bacteria produce too much alcohol – may cause fatty liver disease
Some microorganisms can raise a person’s blood alcohol to dangerously high levels, even if he hasn’t touched a drop of alcohol his whole life. In a study published in the journal Cell Metabolism, certain types of gut bacteria can ferment carbohydrates into alcohol within the body — a condition known as auto-brewery syndrome (ABS). A team of researchers from the Capital Institute of Pediatrics in … Continue reading Auto-brewery syndrome – when gut bacteria produce too much alcohol – may cause fatty liver disease
Hepatoprotective activity of Limnophila repens (creeping marshweed) protects against paracetamol-induced toxicity
Researchers from India assessed the hepatoprotective activity of Limnophila repens (creeping marshweed) against paracetamol. They reported their findings in a study published in the International Journal of Green Pharmacy. The liver plays a central role in all metabolic processes inside the body. It is responsible for metabolizing a number of xenobiotics.Because of its function, the liver is … Continue reading Hepatoprotective activity of Limnophila repens (creeping marshweed) protects against paracetamol-induced toxicity
