"Remember that we are going to die, Stoltenberg!" Our uncritical efforts to fight aging and death will drain even the strongest economy. (Choose translate to read this Norwegian op-ed in English) @jensstoltenberg.bsky.social @uio.no www.forskersonen.no/helse-kronik...
Husk at vi skal dø, Stoltenberg!
KRONIKK: Finansminister Jens Stoltenberg slår alarm om at vi er i ferd med å bruke opp all arbeidskraften vår på helsetjenester. Årsaken er egentlig en suksesshistorie.

Paradoxically, the healthier we live, the longer we live, and the more likely we are to die of cancer in the end. Read "the real story of cancer that no one tells you about." www.jarlebreivik.com

I heard @jarlebreivik.bsky.social on the brilliant @unshawpodcast.bsky.social , which is well worth listening to.
A brilliant communicator about an illness which is still so terrifying it is hard to talk rationally about.
His book is a model of thoughtful communication.

Our aging cells are programmed to slowly shut down and die. The cells that escape this suicide mechanism turn into cancer. Either way, it's the end of the multicellular organism. We are temporary cell colonies. That's the basic interpretation of these findings. www.sciencealert.com/the-risk-of-...

Aging brings two opposing trends in cancer risk: first, the risk climbs in our 60s and 70s, as decades of genetic mutations build up in our bodies.

“Cancer is often associated with death but is also very much about life. It is about the basic principles of biology, the intricate dynamics of living organisms, body and soul, tears and love, culture, politics, and money. Cancer is alive.” jarlebreivik.com

Please share this to your near and dear ones and also to your patients.

🚫 Misinformation is costing lives! Late diagnosis & reliance on alternative treatments alone lead to poor cancer outcomes. Dietary changes can support health but can't cure cancer. Seek evidence-based treatment!
