There is a pattern, and it runs through everything. The sun was free. They sold you sunscreen. Sleep was free. They sold you pills. Walking was free. They sold you a treadmill. Fasting was free. They sold you meal replacement shakes. Cold water was free. They sold you a plunge barrel. Animal fat was free. They sold you supplements to replace what it contained. Fermented food was free. They sold you probiotics. Tallow was free. They sold you a seventeen-step skincare routine. Silence was free. They sold you a meditation app. Sunlight on your skin was free. They sold you vitamin D tablets. Every single thing the human body requires to function was available, free, for the entirety of human history. The 20th century built an industry around removing access to each of them. The 21st century is building an industry selling them back. Nothing about this is accidental. Your great-grandmother had none of the products. She had all of the things the products are compensating for. She was, largely, fine.
