Can vinegar repair damaged DNA?

Vinegar / acetate is produced in a healthy organism as the main product of the metabolism of intestinal bacteria in the large intestine . From there, it reaches the entire body through the bloodstream. I have already mentioned its positive effects on the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, or perhaps the supporting cells of the nervous system several times. But today it will be of the highest caliber. Can acetate trigger the repair of our damaged DNA? In other words, prevent cancer? At first glance, it seems like nonsense. Such an ordinary thing as vinegar or sodium acetate? We would have known that a long time ago, right? Today everyone knows how DNA looks. It is two strands twisted into a helix. The information stored in DNA is therefore redundant, each strand contains complete information. If one strand is somehow damaged, for example by radiation, the second strand in the exact same place contains information that allows the first damaged strand to be repaired. Light repairable dam...

It's caused by insulin resistance! But which one? The first, the second, or even the third?

It is interesting that most experts in the field of civilization diseases have not yet even taken note of the opinion of scientists who see and prove that the first well-measurable manifestation of metabolic problems is insulin resistance. It is manifested by an increased level of insulin in the blood after eating and on an empty stomach. However, if we are to find the cause of insulin resistance, we will get into trouble. Among the supporters of the so-called ketogenic diet, there is a belief that the cause is carbohydrates and sugars in food. Just leave them out and the insulin level will drop. They consider this to be sufficient evidence. Carbohydrates and sugars are poisons. Done, insulin resistance solved. What does it matter that a low-carb ketogenic diet temporarily disables insulin production, so that, for example, a standard oral glucose tolerance test will be unsatisfactory, similar to a diabetic. Isn't that insulin resistance? For a successful test, you need to eat at l...
