"Lab-grown meat is proving to be a grotesque misadventure - The answer to humane meat is better farming, not Silicon Valley Frankenfood"

Or, even better you could just eat more meat, which is loaded with taurine

#ketogenic diets are the most investigated diets that impact brain's function
We've known for decades its power to impact our brain health in conditions like ''Refractory Epilepsy'' or ''Treatment-Resistant Epilepsy''

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.

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/

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.

HISTORY OF MODERN NUTRITION
First they added sugar...
Then they added processed fats...
Then they told you to stop eating real foods that naturally make you satiated 🥩🍳...
Then they told you to snack all day & eat small meals...
💉Then they sold you injections for diabetes

"The high volume & low density of protein in soy drinks may explain why the majority [60%] of the sample [of Swiss vegans] did not reach the recommendation of 1 g of protein/kg bodyweight/d"

Indie shops, markets, box schemes …. Use every alternative to supermarkets you can.
Supermarkets have been the strategic partner of Big Food, nudging people into food apathy, globalisation and ‘convenience’ food diets based on lucrative (for them) value-added ultraprocessed food.
Avoid supermarket shopping.
“Supermarkets have driven out the local farmers by hammering them into the ground.”

US cattle numbers are at their lowest since 1951. Not something you would expect to see if you’ve been listening to the narrative propagated by plant-based and environmental activists

Red meat, especially beef, is an excellent and economical source for proteins, iron, zinc and selenium. It should be eaten everyday, about 100g per day.
Animal livers are particularly rich in iron and vitamins A, B & C. They are used to cure anaemia or iron deficiency.

Unholy Trinity is a new book, #1 on Amazon currently.
By a lay person, entrepreneur Daniel Trevor, who was eating right, exercising reulgarly, normal weight yet still had a heart attack.
His research led him to revelation that advice to eat fruits, veg, whole grains, vegetable oils, which he'd followed was in fact all wrong. Great interview w/ @KenDBerryMD

When it comes to nutrient bioavailability there are endless amounts of things to consider.
Fact: The totals you see on your nutrient calculator are not the amount making it into your cells. Not even close!
Fact: Animal produce nutrients have much higher bioavailability than plants, especially grains.
This is a huge issue. Especially for you know who's.

"the academy’s determination will make it easier to punish people whose children suffer from malnutrition as a result of the strict diet under a law that makes it a crime not to assist a person in danger [...] we can no longer tolerate this endangerment”
