  1.  @angelmoreno6577  refugees still escaping from both of those, understandably. Was it ever thus?

  2. Egypt likely referring to us as immigrants, and moving us on rapidly - unless we're paying tax.

  3.  @aryashchoudhary9561  this sounds like a possible Gang Warfare film scenario? Yamnaya meet the Jats.

  4. However, I recently discovered that the red hair genetics, which helps offset the Northern darkness, DECREASES the ability to absorb vitamin D from diet! So I have to put on my See-You-Jimmy hat, and go out in the Scottish rain! Popping a supplement or eating salmon three times a day won't do it.😕🌧️

  5.  @Jinglylenny  replying to 5'3 comment: diet. The Dutch increased their height by 12" in a century, purely by changing their diet.

  6. On the other hand, lead absorption has been claimed (by a doctor in Wales?), to have been a major factor in schizophrenia. That doctor claimed classic cases began appearing when the Victorians got lead-pipe plumbing, continued during the leaded petrol era, and stopped appearing in cities/places that banned leaded petrol. He apparently compared European cities and new 'classic' cases stopped in about ten years. In which case, your carrier status could be protecting you from schizophrenia.

  7. If the Yamnaya are to blame for Northern Europeans' susceptibility to hemochromatosis and multiple sclerosis, how does our incidence of schizophrenia fare? I'm sure I heard it mentioned in a video somewhere. I ask, because on another channel, a Canadian of obvious Celtic/Saxon/Viking sort of heritage, HAS schizophrenia, BUT has also found a strict ketogenic diet effectively 'curing' it. As in, off all medication, with no symptoms, after nine months. When previously she was on medication for a decade with symptoms (and with several psychotic episodes during that decade). Her husband is following the same diet, as moral support and as a form of 'control', but has found his body adapt less naturally to it. While obviously not having the same sensitivity to carbohydrates in the first place, in that he had no mental illness. He appears, superficially, more Brythonic/Latin looking. Is she descended from Steppe (keto diet?) herders? And he from Neolithic (grain eating) farmers? Both can survive on each other's diet, but in marginal health situations, their optimal 'adapted' one is the difference between health and illness?

  8. Interesting. I thought that Northern latitude and vitamin D deficiency were the main risk factors for MS. With the deficiency being partly due TO the dark, Northern latitude. (Apparently the red hair genetics improving vitamin D absorption from sunlight, also REDUCE the efficiency of absorbing it from diet. (So I CAN'T just stay in and take a supplement, I HAVE to go out in the Scottish rain and 'get my vitamin D'. 😕🌧️)

  9. Dairy is supposed to help with vitamin D absorption, due to the calcium in it.

  10.  @captainfury497  now we just need to find out why people with blond hair liked globular amphoras! 😀
