I think studies cause cancer.

You are what you eat. I was ten when my grandmother and I were snapping beans for dinner while we were watching Merv Griffin, and she had that chat with me.

LOL. “The talk” with grandma. Not the sort of “the talk” you always hear about black kids getting.

That’s a nice memory. The simple pleasures of life and a great life lesson learned, too. And it stuck with you for many years (unless you are 12 now).

Everything needs to be taken in perspective. How do the odds compare with getting a Covid vaccine, or smoking or drinking, or answering the question, “Does this dress make me look fat?”

Generally I’d tend to agree with this. We eat practically no junk food at our home.

But with the word “study” in there, it becomes as suspect as anything associated with “science” or “fact checking”. They’ve all become buzz words used by the left associated with turning lies into the truth.

Visceral Fat is your enemy. And processed food is the main factor in it, and you can look skinny on the outside and still have a lot of visceral fat.

Add it into the middle of the list of things your wife has asked you to do and it’s guaranteed you live on forever.

There is no such thing as “junk-food”. There are just good and bad decisions on what you put in your face hole. If you know and understand nature and the commercialization of mass production of foodstuffs, you won’t eat it.

Our bodies were built to be cavemen.

Understanding the world of the caveman is a good guide as to how to eat. The caveman didn’t have supermarkets with all kinds of food available year-round. And there certainly wasn’t any processed foods back then.

If he wanted food, he had to hunt for it, and he might go days without food, and yet he survived. And he’d better be fast to outrun the animals that were trying to kill him.

This is why fasting is actually good for the body. You have to be at your best when you haven’t eaten for awhile, and fasting actually is good for the brain, and produces Human Growth Hormone to build muscle.

That's exactly right. That's why I don't want to know. Ignorance is bliss. I want to live in a world of bliss. Give me my Little Debbies Swiss Roll, Raspberry Bismark, and we all want to be like Joe, give me ice cream.

Bless your grandmother. For sure you are what you eat. I read a book 60 years ago, “Food Is Your Best Medicine” (now available on AMZ) when I had a sick little boy. Changed his diet, changed his life. Mine too. Of course we now have to eat certain things organic with no GMOs, which were not a problem back then.

Pasture raised eggs and chicken, no wheat, no salt on anything, skip seed oils, only extra virgin olive oil, etc etc. I don’t eat saturated fats like butter and cheese and really don’t miss them.

Woman who sold me new insurance was seriously impressed that I didn’t need prescription drugs for cholesterol. . No wheat? Told her I buy BFree seed bread at Natural Grocer or Walmart online. Delish. Modern wheat has junk in it that raises cholesterol. I read that in a book by Wm Davis, MD: “Wheat Belly” Stopped eating wheat and cholesterol perfect in two months.

I’m 87, take one prescription drug, have blood pressure like a teenager’s, and eat all the right things. Walk a mile a day — couldn’t do that for awhile because I had a broken ankle, but doc said last week I could go back to the gym.
