The US gubmint method of providing welfare payments of food, (including fast food from restaurants) alcohol, sex via strip clubs, vacations, etc. All the things productive working people can't seem to find funds for.
The result of mega food coupled with no responsibilities has crippled many with morbidly obese bodies and minds that only repeat:
Ah gotcha...yes. my oh my - how the system rewards modern day slavery is awful - why we can only work on ourselves as examples. Have you seen more EBT since the pandemic, or has it been pretty much a steady thing in your area / texas?
You named it exactly, Sir. Just don't try and inform the "slaves", they seem less appreciative than you may think.
I believe the plandemic bloated every budget that could be corrupted. This was no exception. I've read that some of these measures are only now being slowly rolled-back (since 2020 !?!?) and it is leading to major difficulties with those not accustomed to feeding themselves.
You overlooked one of the most significant players in the obesity game, specifically, the E.B.T. factor.
It's pretty difficult to overlook if you do any level of grocery shopping. Many of them can no longer walk themselves, and must pilot a self-propelled cart which also motivates the proudly obese shopper while they gather their provisions.
Great question Brandy. At the very least, I aim to see the sunrise with my naked eye... and do expose my torso as much as possible, especially when the Sun is out. It may be cold, but if the Sun is out you'll be surprised how lovely and warm it can feel. There is also the near infrared (NIR) sauna - which helps boost subcellular melatonin. If you have time, check out the podcast I did with Brian Richards, founder of Sauna Space:
Unfortunately, I am so far north that the sun doesn’t rise above the tree line for a few months but I will increase my efforts to get out there when it does reach over those trees once again. And the sauna idea is great. Was wondering about that too. We happen to have one I just need to recommit to using it regularly.
Thanks for the link! I’ll look forward to listening.
Thanks for giving it a read Jonathan! I appreciate your time and insight here - especially since you're in the arena of fitness, you probably see tons of supplements and approaches thrown at people that may not always work.
Very informative! The general principles described herein are things i have been practicing for some time now, or understand to be true. This article describes the inner workings of those ideas. Health and nutrition truths are in large part what led to my skepticism of our modern ways and the advertised narratives. I've been learning about holistic health for over 20 years. I read Dr. Mindell's Vitamin Bible in the late 90's and set me on a path. That book went everywhere with me! Once you start learning how your body uses vitamins and minerals, you can more properly get them inside you!
Great info. TY. I've always turned light off as much as possible, but I was late getting my act together on eliminating LEDs and finally got a blue light screen for the TV and my computer, and it has really made a difference.
I never fell for diets - or low-fat foods, or sugar substitutes...still employ some healthy food hacks from my modeling days. But since all of our food is so contaminated now, less is really important. I've been on poison patrol with regard to food for decades thanks to Mike Adams - he has been a great resource for that, and natural healing.
I did see an interesting video - the woman was saying that if you get 8 hours and 15 minutes of sleep each night, it will regulate your metabolism and keep any extra weight off...been doing it for two weeks - forcing myself to sleep more, and it does seem to help, on many levels.
Thanks so much for sharing what's working Pasheen. I'll have to try that 8:15 sleeping technique. Right now get about 7 on average - but now that the darker days of winter are approaching it's a perfect opportunity.
When you have a moment, would you mind sending a link or the name of that blue light filter?
YW...and here is the link on Amazon - assumed you were talking about the TV screen? Comes in a few sizes - measure from corner to corner...
I did a bit of research on them - read a lot of reviews - and make sure you get one that has the lip at the top to slip it right on - you don't want to try to put a plastic coating on the monitor itself - this has a lip and it slips right on at the top ...that's my preference anyway, and it makes it versatile - usable for a computer as well...
Thank you so much for your feedback Pasheen! This is great info, which I'll include as a resource in future articles and course materials. I'll bump up your discount on the EMF course (:

Onward, Christian soldiers!
"Electronic Balance Transfer" card. Like a debit card

That's our "Murca."
Onward, Christian soldiers!
I hear you Guido. Thank you for your comment. What's EBT though?
Electronic benefits transfer. Food stamps
Funny - those with the electronic benefits transfer (EBT) are more likely to wreck their electron transport chain (ETC)
Any tips for us northerners who cannot expose our bodies to daylight? Do tanning bed/lights help?

Very cool, thanks.
"The waltz of our metabolism" -- dancing with the light ...
Thank you David!! Precisely! I can almost envision a new "album" in the making.
Great article. It makes me think about how humans have survived so much through time.
Our food is not the only energy source.
Thanks for giving it a read Jonathan! I appreciate your time and insight here - especially since you're in the arena of fitness, you probably see tons of supplements and approaches thrown at people that may not always work.
Yeah... I'll probably do an article on my time having to, "Sell" supplements to folks for a gym I was working at in the past.
Nice. Would love to hear your story there.
