Why is there so little known about this organ? It almost feels like there's an intentional cover up of some sort, there's so much basic info out there about such a critical organ that even immune experts know nothing about.

Here are some facts about the Thymus:

- it's where T cells mature and differentiate into specific forms
- it starts rotting when you reach adulthood (involution). However,
- it's preserved in fat people
- it's preserved in women
- it's preserved with zinc supplementation
- it can even be partially restored with zinc supplementation
- it's preserved in Asian people
- Asians also have the highest rates of thymus cancer (makes sense, whites can't get cancer in an organ they literally don't have)

How is it that a random 20 year old like me can know these things, while actual immunologists I've talked to don't know these things?

It's literally the organ that makes T cells (and therefore B cells by extension) work properly. Why are these basic facts so well hidden?
