Biden told America you’ll need to sacrifice and pay a price for Ukraine.
And they will proceed to say it’s all Putin’s fault. They will pin all their failures on Putin. In a way, Putin is rescuing those who dug themselves into a deep hole.
Bingo ... chalk one up for the Russian-Ukranian war initiators/sponsors and the NWO and WEF.
I did get a bottle of Super K Elite from Life Extension but only tried one a day for 30 days and have looked at nattokinase.
Thanks, will look into the rest tomorrow.
I’m growing a new diet this year. All stuff I already like but that is unavailable or pricey here in rural flyover country. Lots of green leafy stuff and I’ll be growing at least shiitake mushrooms and maybe wine cap. I know about antioxidants and hopefully the red grapes I like so much will get back to a decent quality. They went to crap during covid. I don’t expect them to be as cheap as pre-covid because nothing ever will. Blackberries grow wild here though so... - Growing goat meat too which is very lean and I’ve never been into animal fat of any kind. Marbled yes but that’s about it and I haven’t been able to afford ribeye, my favorite, in 20 years. Never been all that big on fried foods but have eaten my share I suppose.
My mom had ‘hardening of the arteries’ aka atherosclerosis and couldn’t walk very far in her later years. Last time I saw her, my dad pushed her into a restaurant in a wheelchair and then she walked slowly to the table.
I cleared a fence line around 12 acres, mostly through the woods a few years ago and then kinda sat on my butt for three years. When I got up and tried to walk any distance, I found my calves would ache after the 300 feet from the shop to house up a slight grade. If I had to do a second trip, the pain would get up to the thighs. Further and I would hurt right up to the top of the pelvic area, butt and upper thighs and the spot on the front where the fold is when you sit.
When the calves started hurting, I looked into it and found that if you rest for a few minutes and you’re fine, that’s called intermittent claudification, the root of which is atherosclerosis.
Looked at artery/vein graphics and there are some main ones, on the front I think that supply the legs. So I’m self diagnosed and plan to get the basic test for blockage asap. Walk a treadmill while they check blood pressure in arms and lower legs. Too bad I can’t just go out and get that test and pay cash but no. Have to have a PCP to send you for that and I have no health insurance and couldn’t afford the 4-5 digit deductible for anything I can afford the monthly fee on.
So that’s where I’m at. 56 years old, thin and active all my life until a few years ago when I evidently caused a problem by not moving all the time like I had all my life. Never went overboard with eating fats imho but I’ve never known one fat from another.
Based on all that, it might be a hard calcium plaque.
Consider also growing Oyster mushroom, which have several-fold more ergothioneine in them, than Shiitake.
There are heart CT scans you can buy for under $200, even $99 on sale. There’s a place near Dallas that does that. There’s also a full body PET scan someone told me about that’s $600, in that same area.
The heart scan would definitely help you estimate the issue elsewhere, while some blood tests could help identify the inflammation signs.
I’ll keep your condition in mind as studies come up.
Please play it safe and keep your good attitude.
This is another seaweed component that reverses soft plaques:

Democrats and progressive say it’s patriotic to pay more for fuel and food
This is another example of how off-shoring businesses due to hostile tax and regulatory policies is coming back to hurt average Americans. I believe that America is ranked 2nd or 3rd in the world for the highest corporate taxes. It was worse before Trump. Regulations make it even more expensive. Biden wants more of both while relying on half-assed speeches that tell us the solution is to buy American.

There is one exception and that's the Branched Oyster Mushroom(Pleurotus cornucopiae). It's so loaded with Ergothioneine that is might be worth setting up a special place to grow them. They like 60-80 degrees and over 95% humidity which occurs naturally here for a couple of months but for year round growing, a controlled environment would be needed.
All I see available is liquid culture syringes with various substrates to inject and then transfer to a different substrate(I think). Can't buy sawdust spawn or pre-inoculated substrates. Just pure liquid in a syringe. I'll have to do more research and watch some of the supplier's videos. It's like working in a sterile lab. Have to wear protective gear, work in a room that has still air, move slowly and deliberately etc.
I believe Ergothioneine is a gift of life.
Nearly every cell has an ion channel for only that molecule, to slide down into just the right spot to quench free radicals in mitochondrias’ delicate energy generators. It’s renewable, in place, in it’s ability for at least three weeks.
It’s an antioxidant that survives in use longer than any other I’ve found. Everyone was meant to eat mushrooms, and often.
Sorrels grow wild here but you have to know where to go for them and it's hit or miss depending on the Spring and Fall weather. Shiitake and a few of others would be easy for me to cultivate based on my near endless supply of oak.
I'm having a problem believing this chart.
Hard to believe that it would have so much more Ergothioneine than other mushrooms including even other Pleurotus like the Pleurotus eryngii aka King Oyster, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleurotus_eryngii, which is also in that table and one I could more easily grow here.
Seems like the Branching Oyster(Pleurotus cornucopiae) would have more fanfare for it's enormous Ergothioneine levels. I haven't found that info anywhere else, just that one study so ... https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/agricultural-and-biological-sciences/ergothioneine
I can grow the King Oyster(Pleurotus eryngii) which is slightly higher than shiitake(Lentinula edodes) using the same method. Buy spawn, drill holes in logs, insert spawn, seal with beeswax, keep moist and wait. With the Branching Oyster(Pleurotus cornucopiae), I would have to buy liquid culture and set up a clean room to introduce it into the substrate. I have no room for that and really have no room for indoor mushroom culture.
Do note it’s the “fruiting body,” and not the stalk.
King oyster mushrooms are all stalk and little body, and have a ton of ergo in that, instead.
King oyster mushroom are good sliced into disks and fried in butter, but I prefer the smaller oyster mushrooms for flavor and texture.
Actually, oyster tastes best, to me, but I’ve had a lot of shiitake, too.
I did read that about them and noticed they were mostly stem/stalk and the disk/ medallion / stem thing. I’ve been doing approx a 50/50 mix of butter and olive oil lately. Seems to increase the burn point of butter yet has more flavor than just oil.
In the White House release the other day regarding crypto, they instructed Dept of Treasury to study digital dollar. Fed Reserve has already been studying solution with MIT as part of the Hamilton Project.
