We once considered a Cholesterol Level of 350 perfectly normal & healthy. Then it was lowered to 300. Then to 240. Then to 190. Now doctors want your levels as low as statins can force them — no matter what. Every single time the “safe” number drops, millions more healthy people are suddenly labeled as needing medication. This isn’t medicine. It’s a business model. Statins generate over $22 billion every year. The truth is, the cholesterol hypothesis has been heavily questioned for decades. The famous Framingham Heart Study that helped launch the fear actually showed that for every 1 mg/dL drop in cholesterol per year, there was an 11% increase in both coronary and total mortality. Large reviews of elderly populations (over 68,000 people) found that those with the highest LDL cholesterol lived the longest. Yet studies on statins show they extend average life expectancy by only about 3.2 days. Lowering cholesterol harms the body because cholesterol is essential. It forms every cell membrane, protects your brain, produces hormones, and helps repair arteries. **Statins come with a long list of serious side effects, including:** - Liver inflammation & damage - New-onset Type 2 diabetes - Heart failure & cardiomyopathy - Vertigo, dizziness, cognitive impairment - ALS, aphasia, dementia & Alzheimer’s - Cancer - Pancreatitis - Parkinson’s - Muscle tearing & rhabdomyolysis - Fatigue, weakness & neuropathy - Hormone deficiency - MS, epilepsy & clinical depression **Real culprits behind heart disease:** chronic inflammation, seed oils, excess sugar, and processed carbohydrates — not cholesterol itself. Your body makes most of its cholesterol for good reason. Forcing it dangerously low can create more problems than it solves. Share this with anyone being pushed toward statins. Higher LDL in the elderly is linked to longer life in multiple studies. The constant lowering of “normal” cholesterol numbers benefits drug sales far more than patients. Food is medicine. Real healing starts with what you eat.

@MorePerfectUS Isn't the bigger story here that dental insurance isn't insurance. Like it's literally the wrong product name. Insurance definitionally caps risk, if we had dental insurance, then the insurers could push back, right now this is impossible.

NEW: One of our journalists had open heart surgery. He also had to go to the dentist recently — and his dental procedure cost more. Why? Private equity owned dental chains are raising prices. And insurance giants are refusing to cover rising costs, making you pay more and more.

Someone please recommend a Netflix show that's actually addictive, the kind that makes people stay up all night and finish season one in one sitting?

From Ken Blackwell over at FaceBook. GREAT read! A thread. 1) No Kings explained for people who think they're fighting fascism. 500 groups. Three billion dollars in revenue. Pre printed signs stacked and shipped before you even knew what you were supposed to be mad about. That is not a spontaneous uprising. That is infrastructure. That is planning. That is money. That is message discipline. And that is what you walked into on Saturday. You looked around, saw the crowd, saw the slogans, felt the energy, and told yourself this was democracy. “No Kings.” It sounded clean. It sounded righteous. It felt like you were part of something organic. But the signs were ready before your outrage was. That should bother you. Because you are not living under a king. You are living in a constitutional republic with elections, term limits, and a press that has spent years attacking the most powerful figures in the country without consequence. No one is being arrested for calling a president a fascist. No one is being silenced for dissenting. That is not tyranny. And yet you are being told it is. You are being trained to see normal functions of a country as authoritarian. Loving your country becomes suspicious. Wanting a secure border becomes immoral. Believing parents should have a say in their children’s lives becomes dangerous. Asking basic questions about elections becomes taboo. That is not clarity. That is conditioning. Every country on Earth enforces its borders. Most require identification to vote. That is not controversial anywhere else. It is only controversial here because you have been told it should be. And you believed it. Meanwhile, look at the people who actually hold power and how long they have held it: Chuck Schumer. 46 years. Longer than Stalin. Steny Hoyer. 45 years. Longer than Mao. Mitch McConnell. 42 years. 5x more than Napoleon. Nancy Pelosi. 39 years. Longer than Henry VIII. Maxine Waters. 35 years. Longer than Mussolini. Bernie Sanders. 35 years. Triple Hitler’s entire reign. That is what entrenched power looks like. Decades. Not months. Not a single term. Decades. But you are told the threat to democracy is the outsider who disrupted that system for a brief window of time. You are told he is the king. No. What you are reacting to is not monarchy. It is loss of control. You do not hate kings. You hate kings that are not yours. Because when power consolidates on your side, you justify it. A sitting president steps aside. Within days, a replacement is effectively crowned without a real contest, without a meaningful debate, without voters having a say in a process that is supposed to belong to them. No primary. No debate. No ballot. And you said nothing. Three days before you marched, lawmakers aligned with your movement rejected voter identification requirements. At the same time, you lived through a period where you had to show documentation to participate in basic parts of life. You needed proof to eat, to travel, to work. But asking for proof to vote is suddenly oppression. That contradiction should stop you cold. Instead, it gets waved away. Look at how power is actually maintained. Non citizens are counted in the census. Census numbers determine representation. Representation determines power. Remove verification, expand the count, and you increase influence without ever needing a crown. That is how modern systems entrench themselves. Then look at speech. There is written evidence of government officials pressuring platforms like Facebook to suppress information. Not just misinformation. Information that later proved to be accurate. Scientists were sidelined. Doctors were ignored. Even humor and satire were targeted. Humor.

Here’s how I’ve been able to lose (& keep off) 49 pounds in 10 months: Breakfast: ▪️250 calories of chicken or tofu ➡️ I buy the precooked chicken that comes in bags & eat it cold straight out of the refrigerator Coffee: ▪️Instant espresso + almond milk + zero sugar creamer (~200 calories) Snack: ▪️2 Greek Yogurts + 2 cottage cheese packs (400 calories) ➡️ I take half a spoonful of cottage cheese & then scoop the rest of the spoon w/ Greek yogurt Lunch: ▪️250 calories of chicken or tofu Coffee: ▪️Instant espresso + almond milk + zero sugar creamer (~200 calories) Snack: ▪️2 orange bell peppers & cucumbers (no dips) ➡️ Cucumbers are basically 0 calories; they are filling & hydrating Dinner: ▪️500 calories of chicken in a crockpot to simmer w/ chicken bone broth (700 calories altogether) ➡️ If I’m feeling extra wild & have burned more calories in a day, I’ll also eat a hard boiled egg w/ my soup Snack: ▪️2 cans of hearts of palm (160 calories) ▪️Cherry tomatoes (no dips) Sometimes, I add a scoop of whey protein to my coffee (140 calories); sometimes, I do this twice a day. Each day, I go to the gym and burn ~300-400 calories. Pro Tip: ▪️If you have a sweet tooth, zero sugar gum is your best friend ➡️ I probably chew about 20 pieces of gum per day, but it works Total calorie intake on an average day: ▪️2,160 I’m not a dietitian, but after eating the same things for 10 months — it works. Hope this helps anyone on a health & wellness journey!
