lauric acid (from coconut oil) + glucose reverses heart atrophy ( paradoxically lauric acid can cause heart atrophy at higher amounts >2% of diet because of overstimulation causing excess oxidative stress https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6240279/,
but ~25g coconut oil daily should be a good amount without oxidative stress, especially if split into meals

Combined administration of lauric acid and glucose improved cancer-derived cardiac atrophy in a mouse cachexia model

bromelain increases tendon healing at ~70mg - 100mg (increases tenocyte proliferation / maturation) https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/abs/10.1089/jmf.2010.0078

in rare cases milk sugar (lactose->galactose) causes cataracts, maybe worth trying elimination to see if fixes https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0002939452915870

There's an antimicrobial peptide in saliva that inhibits viruses / covid (LL37) - but nicotinamide/niacinamide is needed for the full effect https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10663372/

saturating gauze with lactoferin closed wounds after bone necrosis surgery in 1-2 weeks
instead of 2-3 months https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29435826/

Brain restoration timeframe for previous meth users (maybe similar with a lot of porn time or maybe overstimulating multiplayer games for hours routinely) - in abstinence setting , takes 8 weeks to reset depression+anxiety scores from 13.1 to 4.8 , a 65% reduction by 2 months with 3 days a week information program https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4560957/
or get a 85% depression+anxiety reduction by the 2 months if exercise (or possibly heating body?) 3 days a week 45 mins (30 minutes cardio, 15 minutes weights) + 5 min stretch

normalized REM sleep start = commonly 60+ minutes , in depression its common to see it hit at 0 minutes or <60
