Sounds to me like You and everyone you know is trapped in the medico/insurance wheel. Follow the money. I once had a doctor who ran every test and prescribed every drug and therapy the insurance company would allow regardless of the patients wants or needs.
If they'd just stop eating seed oils that would all go away. I've noticed that the folks on the cpap are mostly fat, or are most people just fat? I can't tell anymore. Anyway, eat fat, not oil.
I agree. But of course, I am not formally trained. I'm just a health hacker experimenting on my own body.
Having said that, I have come to the conclusion that Hippocrates was right. It's the FOOD stupid!
Specifically, the highly processed, packaged junk that passes for food in your favorite supermarket. You know. The popular brands that are marketed as "Healthy". Read the lables and you learn that almost everything in a package contains known poisons - high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated and highly processed non-food oils, preservatives, colorings, so-called "Natural" flavorings. The list goes on and on.
Unfortunately, almost all of us shop according to our tase buds and advertising pressures and choose according to the brand name or colors on the packages, never even glancing at the ingredients.
We shop around the outside of the store as much as possible. I even make my own energy bars (which are delicious). But the seed oils are the key. That’s the big switch. Without seed oils you’d have to work hard to get fat. This is the difference between those side by sides of public beaches where everyone in the 60’s and 70’s was “skinny” and everyone now is fat. Sugar and calorie intake between now and then is quite similar. The difference is seed oils. Remember when McDonalds had tallow fried potatoes sprinkled with a salt and sugar mixture. Mmmmm.
Wait a minute!
How's that different from any other sugar?
so-called “Natural” flavorings.

“Natural flavor” is basically a form of MSG, an exitotoxin, that merely stimulates some part of the brain to make the tongue think something is tasty. It is harmful. And far from “natural” other than it is not made from petrochemicals.
