Bad news, Texas Roadhouse fans. Beware of restaurant "butter." I worked for 9 different restaurants in 28 years and EVERY SINGLE ONE mixed margarine with butter and pushed it off as "whipped butter." This is how they save on food cost. BYOB or ask for pats. Margarine is BS.

Over the last decade, I’ve gone many years without eating a single piece of fruit or a vegetable Can any academic nutrition folks explain to my why I have not developed scurvy due to vitamin C deficiency or if instead I have a “subclinical” deficiency how then am I able to break world records as a masters athlete?

Interesting JAMA study from 2018 showing that in patients with diabetes, lower LDL is associated with WORSE outcomes for nerve health It’s as if the body may use cholesterol to heal nerves? 🤔 jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Dr Marcus Zervos admits, while being secretly recorded, why he refuses to publish his Vax vs. Unvax Research Study..."Publishing something like that, I might as well retire. I'd be finished." The study shows unequivocally that the unvaccinated are always healthier.

Dr Peter McCullough leaves Del Bigtree stunned. “I'm the senior most opinion on this topic right now in the nation [and] the childhood vaccine schedule should be suspended immediately”. MCCULLOUGH [@P_McCulloughMD]: "None of those studies interviewed the parents, reviewed the vaccine records, or examined the children. So that montage you just showed, not a single one of those individuals actually read those papers, or could stand behind them. The kids were never examined”.

Iowa produces the most GMO corn in the US. Iowa uses more pesticide than any other state except one. Iowa has the 2nd greatest incidence of cancer in the US. Some Iowa countries have cancer rates 50% higher than the national average. But it can’t be the chemicals…

Lp(a) has emerged as a relatively potent driver of residual cardiovascular risk! We are told it is genetic and that a healthy diet cannot effect it! The reality is that several studies show that replacing carbs with saturated fat can and does lower it, sometimes fairly significantly! pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC78…

You ask for evidence of weight loss and improved diabetic control with a CGM ? How about an RCT to show significantly better weight loss and metabolic markers with the group given a continuous glucose monitor? Also check out the TOWARD study by @DoctorTro Average weight loss at one year was 43 pounds frontiersin.org/journals/nutri… Then finally here is a recent meta-analysis of RCT’s pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38090767/?utm_… Time in range is just as important as HbA1c

One topic I’m exploring (with a video coming soon) is how Keto-CTA has sparked its own fascinating social experiment in science communication. I always aim to approach critics with kindness and openness—productive dialogue often means treading lightly on uncomfortable ground for everyone involved. That said, the ongoing silence around the Cleerly analysis and its anomalies (especially when contrasted with consistent findings from Heartflow, QAngio, and even individual Cleerly resubmissions) is itself meaningful data. History is full of moments like this: initial resistance, then deeper inquiry leading to better understanding. (Tensions can flare for a time, particularly at an inflection point — but I’m hopeful we can keep elevating the conversation.)

@Rainmaker1973 Interrupting a crucial biological process? What could go wrong? Cholesterol is not a disease. It's an industry. Wake up and smell the eggs and bacon.

I got on a tiny prop plane and went to Guernsey. They have one of the highest COVID vaccination rates in the entire world, and I had to see it for myself. What I found wasn't what they expected me to find. A room full of people who knew they'd been lied to. Who felt their rights had been violated. Who had been some of the most compliant people on earth, and were now asking the hardest questions of their lives. That's what happens when you tell the truth in places they think are already conquered. Freedom and morality are directly proportional. When one erodes, so does the other, every time, without exception. And the moment you accept that vaccines must stay on the market because someone is afraid of bad optics, you've already lost something you may not get back. ICAN. The World Council for Health. The McCullough Foundation. Different organizations, different approaches, one thing in common: We are not afraid. That's it. That's the whole secret. I started this journey thinking it was about autism and one vaccine. What I found was an ocean. And once you see the ocean you cannot pretend it's a puddle. Guernsey saw it too.

In 1977, the US government told Americans to cut fat and cut cholesterol. Eggs were demonized. Butter got replaced with margarine. Then came the drug. Statins became the most prescribed medication in history. Pfizer made $125 billion off Lipitor alone. Here's what the actual numbers show: To prevent a single heart attack in people with no prior heart disease, you have to treat 104 people with statins for 5 years. And there's still no proven reduction in overall death. Meanwhile the side effects — muscle damage, liver problems, cognitive decline, higher diabetes risk — are very real. In 2015, the Dietary Guidelines quietly removed the cholesterol limit they'd spent 40 years enforcing. No press conference. No apology. Nothing. Your body makes cholesterol because it needs it. Your brain is made of it. Your hormones run on it. They demonized something your body can't live without — then sold you a drug to fight it. Swipe through and look at the numbers yourself. #NSNG #Cholesterol #StatinDrugs #LowCarb #DietHeartHypothesis #AncelKeys #RealFood

Many people have become aware that statins have been promoted using statistical deception by presenting benefits solely with relative risk. But are you aware that this deceptive practice began long before statins were developed? Paul Leaverton and I published a review of 40 years of deception in cholesterol research, beginning with the 1984 LRC-CPPT study to the latest work on PCSK9 meds and Bempedoic Acid. Our paper has been viewed/downloaded 26,598 times in the past 2 years. cureus.com/articles/14164… @drericwestman @nicknorwitz @realDaveFeldman @DrAseemMalhotra @KenDBerryMD @SBakerMD @lowcarbGP @TuitNutrition @zoeharcombe @ifixhearts @drjenunwin @dr_ericberg @DrStephenHussey @AdrianSotoMota @ethanjweiss @DoctorTro @MidwesternDoc @bschermd @DiljanMansoor @woundphysician @lowcarbusa @deckerlesscarbs @FatEmperor @REV_Insulin_Res @shashiiyengar @PierreKory @drtanmoy @GeorgiaEdeMD @bigfatsurprise @drozcanyucel @_coach_al @sgcassiere @RichardZChengMD @CarynZinn @GrassBased @DrEades @BenBikmanPhD @paulsaladinomd @DietScold @DrPaulMason @ElieJarrougeMD @BiggestComeback @dlifein @Marion436842126 @robertlufkinmd @ProfTimNoakes @FructoseNo @DrPeterBrukner @lawlor_smith
