I have a simple rule. I will never use any drug, whether injected or ingested, unless it’s in a life-and-death emergency. People need to wake up and start asking hard questions about their diet and lifestyle. Instead most just accept declining health, and taking more drugs as they age. It’s pathetic how easily people are manipulated by corporations, media, and government. They don’t even bother to think. Endless repetition will make them believe whatever lie they are told. I’ve convinced people to read books like Gary Taubes’s “Good Calories, Bad Calories”, Wolfgang Lutz’s “Life Without Bread”, and even Uffe Ravnskov’s “The Cholesterol Myths.” But it just goes ‘in one ear and out the other’ for most people. A month later, they will tell you that “every book I’ve ever read says that whole grains are healthy” and “every book I’ve read has condemned saturated fat.” People are sheep and they are easily led around by powerful organizations and unthinking “experts.”
