Autopsies Tell the Story:
Japanese Study Reveals Unexpected Link Between COVID-19 Vaccines and Immune Response
A Message from Dr. McMillan
If the pandemic has taught us one thing, it’s this: we must never settle for the idea that we simply don’t know the answer. Now more than ever, pushing boundaries to uncover and understand disease pathology is essential.
We cannot accept lazy scientific narratives that merely rule out causes without providing clear answers. This approach limits progress and undermines the pursuit of meaningful solutions.
The future of medicine demands more from research, from science, and from all of us. Together, we can strive for better outcomes and a deeper understanding of the challenges we face.
Thank you for being part of this journey to challenge and improve the current state of affairs.
Dr. Philip McMillan

FEATURE ARTICLE
COVID-19
Japanese medical protocols require thorough autopsies after COVID-19 vaccination deaths, leading to important discoveries about vaccine-immune system interactions.
Autopsy revealed T-cells breached the blood-brain barrier, with inflammation and hemorrhages undetectable through traditional brain scans.
Spike proteins persisted ten weeks after vaccination, causing widespread inflammation across multiple organs despite minimal visible symptoms.
Dr. McMillan's "COVID storm" theory suggests vaccination primes the immune system, with later infections potentially triggering delayed autoimmune responses.
Why is this important: Medical understanding of COVID-19 vaccine interactions now extends far beyond initial symptoms. By revealing persistent spike proteins and delayed immune responses, these findings challenge conventional vaccination timelines and highlight the critical need for comprehensive post-vaccination monitoring across multiple organ systems.
DISEASE
Emergency department visits for walking pneumonia increased significantly in Washington and D.C. areas since spring 2023, particularly affecting young populations.
Symptoms have expanded beyond respiratory issues to include brain inflammation, skin problems, and gastrointestinal complications in severe cases.
Virginia reported 1,993 pediatric pneumonia visits, while Seattle Children's Hospital cases jumped from 0-4 to 13-26 weekly cases.
The surge coincides with increases in other respiratory illnesses, including RSV, flu, and pertussis cases across affected regions.
Why is this important: A worrying trend emerges as walking pneumonia evolves beyond its traditionally mild nature, showing increased severity and unexpected symptoms. Combined with surging respiratory illnesses, this signals potential challenges for healthcare systems and vulnerable populations.

MEDICAL NEWS IN BRIEF
NEWS HIGHLIGHTS
🚥 New Weight Loss Drugs Target Fat, But Take Toll on Bone and Muscle Mass: Weight-loss medications like semaglutide come with a hidden cost: up to one-third of lost weight is actually muscle and bone mass. This revelation highlights why exercise and proper nutrition remain crucial even with pharmaceutical interventions, as muscle loss could impact blood sugar control and overall health.
🚥 Five Ways to Beat Loneliness this Winter: Recent evidence confirms that brief exchanges with strangers boost wellbeing, particularly for older adults facing high rates of social isolation. This research validates emerging community initiatives and suggests that creating safe spaces for micro-conversations could be a scalable solution to combat loneliness worldwide.
🚥 Gender Differences Unlock Long COVID Mystery: Sex-based immune responses shape long COVID's trajectory, revealing why women face higher risks of persistent symptoms. Understanding these molecular differences drives the development of gender-specific treatments, potentially transforming recovery outcomes for millions globally. [SOURCE]
🚥 Cell Reprogramming Breakthrough Opens Door to Self-Healing Hearts: Pioneering research from Korea University reveals how vitamin C and FGF4 can transform ordinary connective tissue into functioning heart cells. This advancement could revolutionize treatment for millions of heart disease patients by enabling the body to repair its own cardiac damage. [SOURCE]
🚥 How a Newly Examined Gut Microbe Drives the Gut-Lung Axis: Novel findings linking gut protozoa to lung immunity reshape therapeutic approaches for respiratory disease. The research unmasks how microbes orchestrate immune cell migration between organs, opening fresh avenues for treating asthma and infections through gut-based interventions. [SOURCE]
🚥 Patience Isn't a Virtue; It's a Coping Mechanism: Reframing patience as an emotional management skill rather than a moral attribute revolutionizes how we approach daily frustrations. This research suggests we can develop better coping strategies by understanding that impatience stems from perceived unfairness, rather than viewing it as a character flaw. [SOURCE]
🚥 Eating Red Meat May Increase Your Risk of Type 2 Diabetes: Breaking research published in the Lancet reveals a significant link between red meat consumption and type 2 diabetes risk, drawing from data across 2 million participants worldwide. The findings underscore crucial mechanisms like BCAA levels and cooking methods, supporting global health recommendations to limit red meat intake.
🚥 From Flexibility to Longevity: Exploring Yoga's Impact on Aging: Research reveals yoga's powerful positive impact on mental fitness and cellular health. While genetics ultimately determine lifespan, yoga's documented effects on brain mass, telomerase activity, and cognitive function suggest it's a valuable tool for maintaining quality of life throughout our later years.

If you’re over 30 and want to start aging better, you need to add senolytic ingredients to your diet.*
As you get older, it’s common to start accumulating old, worn out cells called senescent cells.
They’re also called “zombie cells” because they linger in our body long after they’re doing anything to support your health.
Almost like old leaves on a plant that need to be pruned off.
As we age, our bodies can waste more and more energy and nutrients on these zombie cells that give us no health benefits in return.
If our bodies waste resources on these zombie cells, we can become less efficient at the normal repair and maintenance of healthy cells and tissues of the body.*
This can lead to age-related symptoms like:
Longer workout recovery times.
General lingering aches and discomfort.*
Decreased physical and mental energy.
And the general “middle-aged” feeling.
Senolytic Ingredients To The Rescue!
Luckily, there’s ingredients that promote our body’s ability to naturally eliminate these senescent or “zombie” cells.*
And they’re called senolytic ingredients.
In fact, the word “senolytic” means “destroy the old” in Latin (as in old senescent cells!).
Qualia Senolytic is clinically tested and combines 9 research-backed senolytic ingredients into a simple supplement you take just two days a month.
Almost like a “monthly cleanse” for aging.
This is the most cutting-edge formula in the world to support better aging.
These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Are you too young to think about how you’re aging? Probably not.
Starting in our 30s, some key cellular processes begin to slow down, making us feel tired and weak over time. This decline affects not just our physical strength and endurance, but significantly reduces our quality of life making everyday activities harder to enjoy.
Luckily, scientists have discovered a way to shape how we age. Mitopure®, by Timeline, targets the root cause of this cellular decline and is clinically proven to increase cellular energy, giving our bodies the energy they need to function optimally. The results? Double-digit increases in muscle strength and endurance without any change in exercise.
