Each time you flush the toilet, a plume of tiny droplets of water and faeces are thrown up to 1.5m into the air. Carried with this aerosol-like spray can be bacteria viruses such as those that cause flu, Covid-19 and the winter vomiting bug norovirus

"Shortness of breath" is listed by the NHS as a sign of Covid and not flu. This is more commonly found in the case of illnesses such as Covid or respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) - This is the one key symptom that means you have Coronavirus, and not flu

Urolithin A:
is not known to be found in any food but rather forms as the result of transformation of ellagic acids and ellagitannins by the gut microflora
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urolithin_A
Its precursors – ellagic acids and ellagitannins – are e.g. in pomegranates
https://www.derstandard.at/story/3000000292411/wikipedia-wird-immer-mehr-von-ki-besucht-immer-weniger-von-menschen
The 10 Foods Richest in Urolithin A:
There's an important basic principle to understand here: No food directly contains urolithin A.
Urolithin A is a metabolite. This means it is first produced in our bodies. Certain gut bacteria produce it by converting precursors called ellagitannins and ellagic acid from our food.
The key question, then, is: Which foods contain the most of these precursors? Another important point is that not everyone has the right gut bacteria to efficiently carry out this conversion. It is estimated that only about 40% of people can produce significant amounts of urolithin A from food.
Here are the top 10 supermarket foods rich in the precursors (ellagitannins) for urolithin A:
Pomegranate: By far the best-known and most potent source, especially the peels and membranes (found in the juice).
Walnuts: After pomegranates, one of the best sources.
Raspberries: All berries are good, but raspberries (especially the small seeds) are the best.
Strawberries
Blackberries
Pecans
Almonds
Dried oak mushrooms (shiitake): A lesser-known but good source.
Black tea & green tea.
Wine or spirits aged in oak barrels: The ellagitannins come from the wood of the barrel.
Capsule (500 mg) vs. Pomegranate Juice (0.25 l) –
Here we compare two completely different approaches with clear advantages and disadvantages.
Daily Urolithin A Capsule (500 mg) –
Advantages:
Guaranteed Dose: You receive a precise, high-dose amount of the pure end product. The effect is not dependent on your gut bacteria. Everyone can benefit.
Targeted Effect: Research on urolithin A focuses on one main benefit: the stimulation of mitophagy. This is the body's natural process for eliminating and recycling damaged mitochondria (the "powerhouses" of our cells).
Health Effects: Improved mitophagy is associated with better muscle function, increased endurance, and a slowing of cellular aging processes.
No Sugar: You get the active ingredient without unwanted calories or sugar.
Daily Pomegranate Juice (0.25 l) –
Benefits:
Broad Spectrum: You'll not only be consuming the precursors for urolithin A, but also vitamins (vitamin C, K), minerals, and a variety of other powerful antioxidants (e.g., punicalagins).
Disadvantages:
Uncertain Conversion: As mentioned above, there's no guarantee your body will even produce urolithin A from it. You could drink the juice and produce only minimal amounts of the desired substance.
High sugar content: 0.25 liters of supermarket pomegranate juice contains about 30-35 grams of sugar. This is a significant amount, which, if consumed daily, can impact blood sugar levels and cause other health problems.
Comparison conclusion: If your goal is targeted and guaranteed intake of urolithin A to promote mitophagy, the capsule is the far superior and more reliable method. Juice is a healthy beverage, but unreliable as a source of urolithin A and is very high in sugar.
Part 4: Does Bryan Johnson take urolithin A?
(Bryan Johnson is the world-renowned biohacker from the "Blueprint" project.)
Bryan Johnson takes urolithin A daily.
According to his current, publicly available "Blueprint" protocol, he takes:
1,000 mg of urolithin A per day.
He has increased the dosage from the original 500 mg to 1,000 mg. This is part of its comprehensive approach to promoting cellular health and longevity.

Maria Branyas wurde 117 Jahre alt und blieb dabei weitgehend frei von Alterskrankheiten. Was kann ihre DNA über Longevity verraten?
https://www.cell.com/cell-reports-medicine/fulltext/S2666-3791(25)00441-0
Ein internationales Forschungsteam hat erstmals ein vollständiges molekulares Profil der Frau mit der bislang längsten verifizierten Lebensspanne (1907 bis 2024) erstellt. Trotz klassischer Zeichen des Alterns war ihre Zellbiologie erstaunlich „jung”. Bis zu ihrem Tod blieb sie von Krebs oder Demenz verschont. Die Studie liefert neue Hinweise darauf, wie genetische Anlagen und eine günstige Darmflora das Altern verlangsamen können.
https://www.fitbook.de/gesundheit/dna-longevity
Sie hatte ein exzellentes Mikrobiom:
Im Darmmikrobiom dominierte Bifidobacterium, eine „verjüngende” Bakteriengruppe. Ihre Mikrobiom-Vielfalt war deutlich höher als bei gleichaltrigen Kontrollpersonen. Die Forscher vermuteten, dass es eine Korrelation zum Joghurtkonsum der 117-Jährigen geben könnte. Sie aß täglich drei Joghurts, die die Bakterien Streptococcus thermophilus und Lactobacillus delbrueckii enthielten. Diese werden mit der Bildung von Bifidobacterium in Verbindung gebracht.

Außerdem aß die Spanierin täglich trank einen Smoothie aus acht verschiedenen Getreidesorten.
In ihrem Erbgut fanden die Forscher außerdem mehrere Genvarianten, die mit einer langen Lebensspanne in Verbindung stehen, unter anderem das sogenannte APOE-Allel. Auch neuroprotektive Gene, die Gehirnzellen vor Schäden bewahren, waren bei ihr homozygot vorhanden, also doppelt angelegt.
Besonders auffällig: In ihren Proben fehlten alle bekannten Genvarianten, die mit einem erhöhten Sterblichkeitsrisiko oder verkürzter Lebensdauer verbunden sind.

Unbelievable but true❗
Scientists advise caution.
Those who use white, pink, or brown noise to sleep should be especially careful. Just like the brain, their hearing needs to recover from its exertion. "Hearing is an active process, where metabolic waste products are produced that can damage hearing in the long term. Actually, the best time for the hearing to break down these metabolic waste products and, so to speak, clean up is at night," says Basner. The sleep researcher therefore recommends finding a volume that is comfortable for you personally, but not stressful. There is no recommended volume, but some studies recommend a volume of around 40 decibels for young children. Basner also recommends using a timer that turns the noise off after a certain period of time. This allows you to enjoy the desired positive effect for falling asleep while avoiding potential negative consequences. Anyone who wants to try the noise can find videos and playlists with titles like "White Noise," "Pink Noise," and "Brown Noise" on YouTube and relevant music streaming services like Spotify. Ultimately, however, according to sleep researcher Basner, more research is needed to find out whether the sounds are good or bad overall.

Interestingly, scientists noticed a "huge erosion" in Branyas' telomeres – the caps at the ends of her chromosomes.
Telomeres protect our genetic material, and shorter ones are linked to a higher risk of death. Recent studies, however, suggest that among the oldest of the old, telomeres are not actually a useful biomarker of aging.
In fact, having very short telomeres may have provided Branyas with an advantage. Hypothetically speaking, write the authors, the short lifespan of her body's cells may have stopped cancer from ever proliferating

Gefahr im Mund: Zahnbakterien fördern Herzinfarkte
https://www.t-online.de/gesundheit/aktuelles/id_100911122/studie-wie-mundbakterien-mit-dem-herzinfarkt-risiko-zusammenhaengen.html
Bei koronarer Herzkrankheit kann sich in den Ablagerungen in den Blutgefäßen, die als Atherosklerose-Plaques bekannt sind, ein bakterieller Biofilm bilden. Dieser bildet sich über Jahre oder sogar Jahrzehnte hinweg. Die Bakterien verhalten sich im Biofilm ruhig und sind dort sowohl vor dem Immunsystem als auch vor Antibiotika geschützt.
Virusinfektionen und andere Auslöser können die Bakterien „aufwecken“.
Durch eine Virusinfektion oder andere externe Auslöser kann der Biofilm aktiviert werden. Dann vermehren sich die Bakterien, was eine Entzündungsreaktion hervorruft. Die Entzündung lässt das Plaque-Material rissig werden, wodurch die Bildung von Blutgerinnseln begünstigt wird. Diese können wiederum einen Herzinfarkt auslösen.
Eine bakterielle Beteiligung an der koronaren Herzkrankheit wird seit langem vermutet, doch es fehlten direkte und überzeugende Beweise. In dieser Studie wurde das Vorhandensein von genetischem Material – DNA – verschiedener oraler Bakterien in atherosklerotischen Plaques nachgewiesen.

Pregnant women should not consume more than 200 mg of caffeine per day – approximately 2 cups. Higher amounts are associated with an increased risk of low birth weight.

Benefits primarily relate to black coffee
https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/17/15/2558
A growing body of evidence from large-scale epidemiological studies consistently shows that moderate coffee consumption is associated with a lower risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality, as well as major chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, certain cancers, cognitive decline and respiratory illnesses. These benefits often persist across diverse populations.
The protective effects of coffee are likely mediated through improved glucose balance, enhanced physical activity, increased fat oxidation, anti-inflammatory properties and enhanced metabolic and pulmonary functions. While concerns persist regarding pregnancy outcomes, anxiety and sleep disturbances, particularly at high consumption levels, most data support the safety and benefits of moderate coffee intake (three to five cups per day) for the general population.
Coffee also improves other aspects of well-being, such as mental alertness, physical performance and hydration, thereby enhancing its role in daily functioning. Although most evidence comes from observational studies, the consistency of findings across settings adds to their credibility. Future research, especially randomised controlled trials and genetic studies, will help to clarify unanswered questions and identify subgroups that may benefit most or require caution. In summary, when consumed in moderation and tailored to individual tolerance, coffee appears to be a health-promoting beverage.

Trapping gut bacteria's hidden fuel improves blood sugar and liver health
https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-07-gut-bacteria-hidden-fuel-blood.html
A new way to improve blood sugar levels and reduce liver damage: by trapping a little-known fuel made by gut bacteria before they wreak havoc on the body
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1550413125003286
"Since the portal circulation connects the gut and liver, we hypothesized that gut microbiota-derived D-lactate participates in host metabolism related to hepatic control of blood glucose and liver fat. We found that D-lactate participates in host glucose and lipid metabolism and that a single strain of bacteria that produces more D-lactate can raise blood glucose in mice. We also hypothesized that sequestration and elimination of gut microbiota-derived D-lactate before it crosses the gut barrier using a substrate trap of D-lactate produced by bacteria in the lumen of the gut would lower blood glucose during obesity and lower a trigger for liver inflammation during MAFLD. We designed a new biocompatible D-lactate gut substrate trap and found that oral delivery of this polymer lowered blood glucose, markers of insulin resistance, and hepatic inflammation and fibrosis in obese mice."
