In the ongoing quest to find a cure for cancer a new study has surfaced that is suggesting an unlikely therapy. “smelling farts” Yes you heard me correctly, smelling farts.
Dr. Mark Wood, a professor at the University of Exeter in England, stumbled upon the groundbreaking therapy when studying acute exposure to Hydrogen Sulfide.
Hydrogen Sulfide is the gas that’s produced when food is broken down during digestion. It is also the smell of rotting eggs.
Wood praised Farts as the “healthcare hero” that will have “significant implications for future therapies for a variety of diseases,”
The report, published by the “Medicinal Chemistry Communications Journal, suggests that “a whiff here and there has the power to reduce risks of cancer, strokes, heart attacks, arthritis, and dementia by preserving mitochondria,”
Everything in moderation they say… smelling large amounts of Hydrogen Sulfide can be dangerous to your health… so the next time your partner decides to give you a dutch oven… don’t get angry at them… think about how many years are they’re adding to your life.
