Abstract In 2022, approximately 20 million new cancer cases and 9.7 million cancer deaths occurred worldwide. By 2050, new cases are projected to double, driven by population growth, aging, and increased exposure to risk factors. Up to 40% of cancers may be preventable by addressing lifestyle and environmental risk factors. Numerous nutraceuticals and repurposed drugs exhibit chemoprophylactic properties. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a polyphenol in green tea, appears to be the most effective agent against multiple cancers, followed by curcumin, a . polyphenol derived from turmeric (Curcuma longa), vitamin D, and omega-3 fatty acids. Using artificial intelligence and leveraging synergistic effects among these compounds, we developed the ROOT 3, ROOT 4, ROOT 5, ROOT 6, and ROOT 9 chemoprophylactic protocols. The mechanistic activity of each nutraceutical is described, along with the estimated risk reduction for the most common types of cancer. These protocols may offer a low-risk an...

Background:   The overall mortality in sepsis has decreased quite a bit in the last decade or so, however for a subset of patients, like those with Septic Shock, the mortality still remains high (as high as 50%).  There have been hundreds of studies trying to identify the holy grail to decrease mortality further, but one has not been found thus far.  Marik PE et al [1] published a study in Chest 2016 that has found a potential front runner.  In addition, the authors go on to say, in order to have an impact on a global scale, treatments would not only need to be effective, but also cheap, safe, and readily available; the authors of the following paper may have found just that..
