Awareness of the harms of ultra-processed foods is growing! YAY! People are learning that these products are toxic to human health and the reason for most metabolic problems plaguing literally millions today.

People are getting it!

Thanks to Robert Kennedy Jr, that awareness… hit the Trump stage recently, and a bunch of us got a tremendous boost to our persistently hopeful outlook for the health of men, women, and children throughout the world.

This ultra-processed food nightmare is not a new topic for many of us… but it is an eye-opener for literally thousands worldwide. It is a story that must be told and, if Kennedy has any say… he’ll tell it. Corporate greed exposed.

Wait… There’s more…

Kennedy endorsed Calley and Casey Means and shortly thereafter, Megyn Kelly interviewed Casey on her show. Their primary topic was on… are you ready for this… seed oils.

Yes, they exposed the damage of consuming these horrible oils on Kelly’s platform… a platform that boasts over 2 million followers. (Insert an excited fist bump here!)

But let’s not forget the trailerblazers…

As the awareness grows… and make no mistake it is growing… we should take a moment to acknowledge the many dedicated doctors, scientists, advocates, and lay people from across the globe who worked tirelessly to bring us the facts.

Without their efforts, many of us would still be consuming this sludge. Because of the many books, published papers, podcasts, video clips, shorts, and etc… we have avoided literally dozens of so called ‘food’ aisles for years.

Let’s acknowledge a few modern day heroes…

We learned that saturated fat isn’t the ‘bad guy’ from pioneers like Nina Teicholz. Her 2014 book, The Big Fat Surprise, continues to educate and is considered to be a ‘reference’ source for many.

Dr. Chris Knobbe’s 2023 book, The Ancestral Diet Revolution is another excellent publication detailing… well… everything you need to know about how we got into this mess in the first place.

You can’t hide the truth forever…

“Nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.”

Matthew 5:15 (AMP)

Note: The above biblical quote seems to be taken a little out of context, but if ‘light’ reflects ‘truth’… then the truth can’t be hidden for long. Eventually, it comes to light, and all who learn of this truth are given the opportunity to gain from it. (In this case… we gain better health!)

Back to our modern day heroes…

Books by Gary Taubes, Dr. Robert Lustig, Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Ben Bikman are among the many who have exposed the effects of ‘added sugar’ upon metabolic health… specifically, insulin resistance.

They have helped us understand diabetes at the cellular level and we now recognize that the conventional ways of treating this pandemic have NOT been the most effective.

Diet, exercise, and intermittent fasting now play key roles in recovery and… most importantly… PREVENTION.

Then there are the podcasters… Dr. Mark Hyman, Mike Mutzel, Max Lugavere, Dhru Purohit, Dr. Peter Attia, Jesse Chappus, Dr. Suneel Dhand, and many, many others. Untold hours of discussion, explanations, data, signs and symptoms, and reasonable conversations have all contributed to the awakening the world is desperate for.

A special thanks to the aforementioned ‘pioneers’ for their years of dedicated service. Without their groundbreaking efforts, many of us would not find ourselves so incredibily hopeful for a major shift in health awareness with, whatever lies ahead, in the hands of Robert Kennedy Jr’s MAHA movement.

Here’s hoping our world’s population can also start their journey to health and wellness.
