Wandering thoughts Pain is the ultimate catalyst for change Disease care will induce more pain More pain will create a bigger readiness to accept responsibility Only individuals who save in hard money will have time to take care of themselves Fiat is bad for human health Bitcoin is gradually lowering the time preference of every individual who adopts it Bitcoin is literally making us healthier [peccary 838496]
If effective, Apollo can dematerialize lower extremity medical services by 95% Bunion surgeries Achilles surgeries Custom orthotics Conventional podiatry Knee replacements 95% of it disappears because when people run natural software, their hardware doesn’t break down prematurely In the same way that we used to buy a calculator and now it’s a free app on every smartphone, we used to pay disease care professionals lots of money to treat lower body symptoms and now we just apply free open source behaviour protocols to take care of ourselves The health revolution happens at the individual level [trogon_838487]
Mission: Develop a simple and effective lower extremity health protocol that allows individuals to prevent and resolve injury without relying on disease care professionals who are trained to treat symptoms without addressing root causes. Protocol principles: 1) Lower time preference by viewing pain as feedback and adopting hard money 2) Reduce exposure to unnatural inputs (shoes & chairs) 3) Increase exposure to natural inputs (walking & ground) Medical intervention to treat lower extremity injury is complex Lower extremity health is simple Free open source health software is the future Individuals ready accept responsibility for their health can opt out of centralized disease care by applying open source proof of work protocols in their lives Welcome to the age of decentralized healthcare [macaw_838467]
PSA to lower extremity disease care providers: Navigating the transition from disease care to healthcare is simple Step 1: Run Apollo software on your own hardware to validate it Step 2: Help others apply the software in their lives That’s it Healthcare is being built on #Bitcoin & #nostr @Jeff Booth @preston @npub15dql...lm5m @CrowdHealth @binmucker [macaw_838341]
Health is proof of work Your state of health at any given time is proof of the work you have done to 1) understand how to care for your biology 2) run software that supports health Run better software = develop better health Be more human = develop better health Finance is complex Bitcoin is simple Medicine is complex Health is simple Apollo is FOSS for human hardware Truth by consensus Your body is your node [macaw_838339]
The paradigm shift: From centralized disease care to decentralized healthcare From trusting authorities with our health to reclaiming responsibility for taking care of ourselves From proof of degree to proof of health From reactive to preventative From expensive, ineffective treatments to free open source effective health protocols Hard money will usher in an era of low time preference, responsibility and Health 🙌🏽 [macaw_838333]
Humans are blessed with adaptive, self healing hardware and every individual is born with perfect software Over time, we unintentionally and unknowingly upload error codes that corrupt our software Specifically, chair sitting and wearing unnatural shoes are two huge error codes for the lower body Those error codes cause us to run terrible software that damages our hardware (especially our joints) prematurely Joints are designed to last 100 years if we use them in alignment with what our biology was designed for Centralized disease care makes money from treating symptoms It replaces hardware, introduces more error codes (drugs) to mitigate pain but it never removes any error codes to reset the software back to optimal default settings Opt out of disease care by running your own health software that removes the error codes and restores your software back to healthy default settings Apollo is open source health software for the lower extremity Don’t trust us Run the software and validate it for yourself [trogon_838329]
Running Apollo means you’re running open source health software that optimizes your lower body hardware It means you’re taking responsibility for your physical health by aligning your lifestyle with your biology It means you’re voting against centralized disease care and opting into decentralized healthcare It means you refuse to trust the experts with your health and reclaim health sovereignty by understanding how your biology functions at a fundamental level Running Apollo is about more than having a healthy lower body It’s about leading by example and shifting culture from lies and complacency to truth and responsibility [trogon_838294]
Understanding how to keep your lower body healthy requires 6 year old level of brainpower 1) Don’t wear shoes that damage your feet 2) Don’t sit in chairs all day That’s it Just be a human [quetzal_838222]
Jim is a 48 year old accountant He goes on a hike with his kids and sprains his ankle. No fracture but it’s a nasty one Context: Jim wears dress shoes ~10 hours a day that disable and deform his feet and spends ~14 hours a day sitting in chairs which creates imbalances at his hip that make him vulnerable to injury Option 1: disease care Jim visits his doctor who prescribes Tylenol and Advil to deal with the pain and 6 weeks of physiotherapy to rehab the injury Jim does 12 physiotherapy sessions (2x/wk for 6wks) which costs him $1,200 and 18 hours of his time After the 12 weeks Jim has regained 80% of his pre-injury ankle function and goes back to life as usual Jim continues to have a nasty ankle sprain every few years and does the same routine each time Option 2: healthcare Jim’s brother Andy found out about Apollo from his pickleball partner and has been running the software in his life for 3 months. His knee and ankle pain resolved and he feels stronger than ever before Andy tells Jim about Apollo. He sends Jim a link to the whitepaper and shares how he applies the protocol by switching to better shoes, spending less time in chairs, walking more and training his balance for 5 minutes every morning while he makes his coffee Jim reads the whitepaper, learns how shoes and chairs affect his lower body, switches to shoes that support healthy feet, reduces his chair sitting time to 4 hours a day and does a 30 minute routine every morning to work on his hip mobility, balance, squat, and to restore strength and mobility in his feet After 6 weeks, Jim has no ankle pain, his hip and ankle function is better than it was before his injury and he continues his daily 30 minute session everyday because of how good it makes him feel After 2 years, Jim is still walking everyday for at least 60 minutes with his kids, hasn’t had any ankle sprains, no longer has low back or knee issues and tells everyone at his office about Apollo The end [aracari_837858]
