You lost me at 'I don't like Voltaire';

Don't forget to refrigerate your rice after cooking it. This converts some of the simple starches back into resistant starches. Gray sea salt and iodine are great tools that allow your liver to do what it does best; detox metals from your body.

I don’t mind as much when people “sell” things that they think are good for you. Lay persons may oversell or use faulty logic, but even those Accupuncture needles exist because someone makes a living from producing them..

It always struck me that the same people who balk at $30 vitamins still revere the doctor who charges $30,000 for a failed back operation. No refunds.

The glaring truth is that we slaves take comfort from answers—even for those situations where there are no answers, or the answers are terrifying. Our trained worship of white coats has led us to where mainstream medicine, correctly applied, is still a leading cause of death and we’re supposed to accept that as the last step in God’s will.

In our profit driven non-utopia, too many doctors have become unwitting shills for pharmaceutical companies, secure in the confidence that if something is worth knowing they would know it already. Even though their overlords try regularly to demolish holistic options.

The news of obscene profits and bonuses paid to medical practices with goal percentages of vaccinated patients tells us all we need to know: complete suspension of critical thinking, patient care, and medical ethics. Gone. And now the illusion of it is gone too. We know now—if we care to look—that medical personnel no more represent our individual wellbeing anymore than our “bought” Congress. They have the same owners and it isn’t little you or me.
