I've never had a doctor tell me to eat boxed products. They ALWAYS say, "vegetables first, fruits second, then lean meats and poultry."
However, they don't say "I forbid you to eat foods I don't want you to eat." That would be pretty dictator-like.

@NOLA Dude I applaud the thread and many of your posts here. It's unfortunate many of the responses I read seem more worried about the source than the substance. Yes, RFK is a conspiracy nut, but even a broken clock is right twice a day. I think the FDA allows us to consume way too many harmful foods/drinks/pharmaceuticals/etc. in this country and am in favor of better regulations.
One area we may disagree on (I haven't read all your posts): Vaccines are a pretty well-established science across the globe and are usually safe. It's good to have some level of caution with anything new, but many people overreacted to the COVID vaccines. And to be fully transparent, I had my own trepidations about the COVID vaccines when they were initially released and have now had eight doses with each dose causing fewer and fewer side effects.
I feel like my immune system is a lot stronger after the COVID vaccines too; I have rarely been sick since getting them and have recovered faster than I used to with cold/flu/COVID symptoms. Anyway, good luck on your thread. Hopefully it makes a difference with some of the issues in our diets.

Thanks, but I disagree. RFK isn't a conspiracy nut. That's just big pharma propaganda.
Most of the RFK critics who've posted in this thread and others are just trolling and they have no interest in an actual debate or discussion. They only post big pharma propaganda, vague posts or insults. I put those people on ignore. Much better experience.
Yes we do disagree. The only vaccine that had a long term placebo controlled safety study was the covid vaccine although it didn't meet the normal length of time.
No other vaccine has had a long term placebo controlled safety study which is the gold standard. Every other medication requires it. Why are vaccines exempt?
How can you claim they are safe if they've never been tested for safety? If they are safe, why do the vaccine manufacturers need liability protection?
I would stop taking the covid vaccine if I were you. The spike proteins are staying in people's bodies for years and suppressing their T cells and there have been big spikes in new cancer cases.
I'm glad it's worked well for you, but considering Covid is more like getting the flu now I would avoid the covid vaccine for the reasons I listed above. Thanks for the reasonable post.

I found no conclusive evidence in scientific journals regarding the T-cells suppression or cancer correlation being linked to COVID vaccines. What I did find was something very interesting that may explain some symptoms my mom has experienced over the last 4-5 years.
Immune markers of post-vaccination syndrome indicate future research directions
A small number of people report chronic symptoms after receiving COVID-19 shots. A new study provides clues for further research.

While I think you may have received some unsubstantiated research regarding the vaccine, I do appreciate you making me question it for my mom's sake. I also wouldn't 100% rule out anything you've said because we probably won't learn all long-term effects of the vaccines for another 5-10 years. I would be more inclined to think cancer cases are increasing due to other sources, e.g. the food/drink/pharmaceuticals/etc. I mentioned in my last post, microplastics they are finding at the molecular level in our bodies, and pollutants in our air, water, and soil.

Somewhat concerning, but a lot of the claims still require more evidence.

The "fact checking" business is compete bullshit.
Those people don't have better training or special skills to determine better if something is true or false. Also, their first claim is wrong and easily found with one Google search:
That website said this wasn't true:
Persistently Replicating COVID Viruses in Colon Tissue
Actually it is true:
During the incubation period, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can be detected in the rectum of patients. Typical SARS-CoV-2 virions in the intestinal epithelial cells under electron microscopy were observed, which provided direct evidence of active SARS-CoV-2 replication in the intestine.
Direct Evidence of Active SARS-CoV-2 Replication in the Intestine - PMC
Currently, there is no direct evidence to prove the active replication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the intestinal tract and relevant pathological changes in the colon and rectum. We investigated the presence of ...

Luckily this crap isn't allowed in organic pork. I always try to find organic meat, produce or anything else whenever possible.
“Big food companies found out that if they feed it to pigs, they grow bigger, fatter, faster. Now, they put it in the feed and over 80% of the pigs in America eat this drug.
The problem is there's been over a quarter of a million adverse effects reported in the pigs that eat this drug.
In over half the cases, the pigs were sickened or killed. And many of these pigs develop a side effect called downers where they become so fat that they're unable to stand up and walk.
So in China, feeding ractopamine to pigs is banned, in Russia it's banned, and in the European Union it's banned. But here in America, it's breakfast, lunch, and dinner.”
‘Ractopamine is banned in China for use in pork production. China prohibits its use in livestock due to concerns about health risks and has strict regulations against ractopamine residues in imported pork. This has led to trade restrictions on U.S. pork, as some American producers use the additive.’

MAHA!
The Trump administration plans to take action to remove artificial food dyes from the nation’s food supply, according to a media advisory sent by the US Department of Health and Human Services on Monday.
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and US Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary will share more about the administration’s plans on Tuesday, the advisory said.

This comes just after a citizen won over 2 billion dollars in damages for proving Round Up caused their cancer.
