Yesterday, was opinion's day, and today is Living the Good Life. In opinion's, I gave a current event's discussion of not only the continued conflict's around the world, but the double barrel weather issues of the USA. Two weeks and a day of following Hurricane 'Beryl, along with record heat around the nation and early fires in the west. Again, I mentioned the unspoken effects of thermal conflict's in the Ukraine and Gaza.
My opinion was that the FDA should be abolished, and the profound influence of non-scientific pharmaceutical interests in the delivery of medicine in the country. Today, a study about the two different weight loss drugs, with their side effect's was reported upon. Obesity is a preventable condition and is not a disease, and drugs to treat the impact of corrupt FDA and USDA policies is not a scientific method, and forebodes even greater decline in American health.
Living the Good Life, means first, cast off the ignorance of an institutional agriculture, that drives and create's disease. Second, think upon our species, and the historical foods that led us up this ladder of "highest" on the food chain, or pecking order. Weston Price's simple recommendation of eating only foods that spoil, and eat them before they spoil. This two part advice is best used when you realize that the human species, though remarkably adaptive, is primarily a fruitarian species, with the inclusion of root vegetable's, seed's, nut's and herbs. Before the advent of fire, little else was edible to our ancestor's. My four part advice from "The Fasting Diet" was to eat whole foods only, use as little heat as possible in preparation, use as much organic as possible, and finally avoid all GMO's. I think this is still sound advice, some 25 years after publication. I will choose some relevant music, and you can enjoy this topic on today's podcast.
