Or, even better you could just eat more meat, which is loaded with taurine
Taurine supplementation reduces heart rate and systolic blood pressure Improves left ventricular ejection fraction: better heart function Enhances heart calcium regulation, promotes blood flow Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory 1.5-6 grams daily Excessive doses not beneficial

The problem with following the science is that quite often, the science follows the money.

Bill Gates eulogizes Beyond Meat and other ersatz variants. Says that rich countries should stop eating real meat. Invests in it. And, after a while, pulls out completely.

The Climate Change Committee wants everyone to reduce meat and dairy intake by a fifth. But the experts don't know how we're going to find the nutrients that will be missing. Plans to slash meat and dairy consumption pose health risk thegrocer.co.uk/health/plans…

Why are more and more young people having a stroke? It looks like high homocysteine, caused by vitamin B12 deficiency, is a major factor. B12 only found in animal foods. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article… mariacross.substack.com/p/wh…

One year ago, dozens of headlines splashed news about a "keto-like" diet causing heart disease This came from a press release by the Amer. College of Cardiology, on data that had been presented at their conference but not published--not even a pre-print; study not registered 1/ @ACCinTouch

And 30 years ago when I started my practice I was advising clients to eat this cardboard stuff! Because that was what I was taught was healthy.
Years ago, I was cooking "healthy" for my family by switching to Whole Wheat Pasta. Gluten, Phytic/Oxalic Acid, Lectins, etc.... When I learned the harms of ALL grains & changed my cooking.....their health improved.

The keto diet is not just for weight loss! It also improves mental health.

I'm so excited about this clinical trial of the ketogenic diet for bipolar disorder and schizoaffective disorder at McLean Hospital! Great things are happening at McLean—maybe that's why we're ranked #1 in the nation for psychiatry!
NEWS FLASH: A clinical trial of #KetogenicTherapy for #Bipolar @McLeanHospital is now enrolling! A$2M gift from baszuckigroup.org will fund an RCT to assess the impact of a #KetoDiet intervention on metabolism & bipolar symptoms. To enroll, visit bit.ly/3uwmT6B.
