Hi! I was born to care, therefore physician, pro WFPBD and vegan. As a doctor, the most important guidance for me is "Do not harm."  In addition to that, I pursue to do good as much as possible, and that`s why EA lured me in. Quite new in EA, becoming deputy board member 2026 in EAFI. 

I`m active member in FALM (Finnish Association of Lifestyle Medicine), Ilmastolääkärit (Finnish Physicians for Climate) which is connected to LSV (Lääkärin Sosiaalinen Vastuu, Physicians for Social Responsibility). 

I live in Northern Finland, love life, animals and singing in a good company. I do like do art (ceramics, paintings), but somehow it´s been over a year last time I did any.

How others can help me

I`m always eager to learn more and EA is a very good opportunity for that. 

My technical skills are lousy, for example doing Youtube-videos is a huge struggle. And when I create slides, I just jump from one rabbit hole to another. So, maybe those tasks would be easier with someone interested in lifestyle medicine / nutritional science / human physiology. 

Last summer I composed my first song without any playing skills. Music can sometimes open people´s hearts. So, if here happens to be a person who can play piano and would be willing to participate as voluntarily as I am, please contact me e.g. by LinkedIn (for now), since I am not familiar with how this site works yet. 

How I can help others

The most hidden secret of medicine is body's capability to heal itself when we stop hurting it. Chronic non-communable diseases don't appear for "unknown reasons". Big Pharma sure knows how to make lab animals sick. So I maintain non-commercial webpage Kasasen kootut and Youtube-channel. All slides are free to use by CCBY4.0 (+ original copyrights). Most materials are in Finnish, but on my website there is a collection "Also in English ones".

Thank you for your thorough ground work on the subject. I did not know that fetal bovine serum (FBS) was used for cultivated meats (any brands), since usually public is told that they could take cells wherever, for example obtain them from withered feather of a lively bird.  I am sad to be misled.

The procedure how FBS is collected from living calf`s heart is so utterly cruel that I imagine the practice would end if it was shown to public. Unfortunately it is done hidden as usual in animal AG. In which countries that is still legal? What brands use it? 

Another thing, I`d love to hear your opinion of the sustainability of Solein by Solar Foods. To my knowledge, that protein can be analogue what ever animal protein, just without hormones etc. harmful substances. As it is high in iron, it might be a sustainable solution to take care of global iron deficiency anemia, too.
