Cannabinoids remove plaque-forming Alzheimer’s proteins from brain cells - Salk Institute for Biological Studies

LA JOLLA–Salk Institute scientists have found preliminary evidence that tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and other compounds found in marijuana can promote the cellular removal of amyloid beta, a toxic protein associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

It's toasting in my #UV #cureall of #science!
I've made some diy #vantablack. Okay, I mixed 1:1 400mesh #graphite powder with Rust-Oleum black. It looks to be having the correct effect. It has to be opaque, it has to not be shiny, and it has to be matte to hopefully prevent glinting. It's probably BS. But it made some really thick paint that coated on the first stroke. I just may paint my fence with it...one day. For now it's optical grade paint 😂. For #photography and #stereograph making.

Albany, NY was essentially founded on the beaver trade – for fur, not as "medicine." Long after the beavers were gone, a local #SnakeOil salesman got into a tussle with the State of New York and ended up getting his beaver seized (and don't think I haven't considered "Beaver Seizure" as a band name).

So here's the story of Dr. Jones' Beaver Oil:
