"Lab-grown meat is proving to be a grotesque misadventure - The answer to humane meat is better farming, not Silicon Valley Frankenfood"

[Dr Shawn Baker 🥩 @SBakerMD]

Or, even better you could just eat more meat, which is loaded with taurine

[Maria Cross @MariaXCross]

Definitely eat more eat!

The problem with following the science is that quite often, the science follows the money.

@JayneReesBuxton @lorraine @DrAmirKhanGP I saw that too, and groaned when walnuts were talked up as a brain food. They are not! Unlike the real brain boosters, meat and fish.

Bill Gates eulogizes Beyond Meat and other ersatz variants. Says that rich countries should stop eating real meat. Invests in it. And, after a while, pulls out completely.

The Climate Change Committee wants everyone to reduce meat and dairy intake by a fifth. But the experts don't know how we're going to find the nutrients that will be missing.

.. 'the usual dietary source of vitamin B 12 is animal products and those who choose to omit or restrict these products are destined to become vitamin B 12 deficient.'

[Maria Cross @MariaXCross]

Why are more and more young people having a stroke? It looks like high homocysteine, caused by vitamin B12 deficiency, is a major factor. B12 only found in animal foods.

One year ago, dozens of headlines splashed news about a "keto-like" diet causing heart disease
This came from a press release by the Amer. College of Cardiology, on data that had been presented at their conference but not published--not even a pre-print; study not registered 1/

IT IS WORSE THAN WE THOUGHT—THE AI IS VEGAN.

@ValerieAnne1970 Thanks - so many of us have had to unlearn everything we thought was true, then start learning the actual truth! Good to connect with like-minded truth-seekers.

And 30 years ago when I started my practice I was advising clients to eat this cardboard stuff! Because that was what I was taught was healthy.

[Valerie Anne Smith @ValerieAnne1970]

Years ago, I was cooking "healthy" for my family by switching to Whole Wheat Pasta.

Gluten, Phytic/Oxalic Acid, Lectins, etc....

When I learned the harms of ALL grains & changed my cooking.....their health improved.

This post doesn’t even seem real to me

But then I realize this is how the majority of the country thinks and eats

The keto diet is not just for weight loss! It also improves mental health.

Thanks, again, to @BaszuckiMatt, @janellison, and @DavidBaszucki for sharing your story of hope, healing, and recovery from treatment-resistant bipolar disorder!

[Chris Palmer, MD @ChrisPalmerMD]

I'm so excited about this clinical trial of the ketogenic diet for bipolar disorder and schizoaffective disorder at McLean Hospital!

Great things are happening at McLean—maybe that's why we're ranked #1 in the nation for psychiatry!
