“Settled science” is not science.

If you disagree with me, then you don’t understand science.

And if you don’t understand the foundations of science, any arguments utilizing science has no merit.

And if that makes you emotional, then you’re definitely not a scientist.

@GavinNewsom You are actually delusional. Who in their right mind thinks CA is actually doing well right now? Why do you have record people fleeing? What is it that you need to protect?

For your 37th birthday @CaseyMeansMD, I have finished reading your book Good Energy. Thank you for your time writing this transformational book Casey! Keep up the good fight on trying to Make America Health Again! HBD!

[Casey Means, MD @CaseyMeansMD]

Today is my 37th birthday. Yesterday I went to the US senate and spoke my truth - as a physician, as a woman, and a living being striving to act on the signals I am perceiving and the intuition I feel.

If there is one thing I feel at this moment in my life at 37, it is that cultivating healthy bodies is of real importance as it is one of the ways that we honor this mysterious MIRACLE of life and nurture the material receiver through which we might be able to connect with spirit, with God. Our unhealthy bodies are a distraction and impediment to the bliss that we can experience right now in the simple recognition of our oneness with all things.

Right now, many levers of society in our material world make being healthy extremely challenging for so many. There is mass suffering that needn’t be, because we are - I believe - distraction, confused, and lost, In the swirl of the cosmos, there is something happening in our little corner that feels like it glitching. Life is on assault. Our Earth, the Mother through which God allowed us to come into human form by assembling atoms from her into us, is being destroyed at our own hands, and so of course, so are we. We have broken the cycles of life, and so we are, or course, breaking.

I don’t believe the answers to this are going to be strictly technological, because technology often seems to have the intent of outsmarting nature, with I don’t think is possible. I believe they need to be based in humility, care, and respect for our Mother. 🌎

We, together, can right all of this. I think we can do it rapidly. I think we NEED to do it rapidly. We can protect our earth, protect each other, and get back on track to pursue our highest calling in this precious moment in this lifetime.

This is what I came to say to the US government yesterday.

PROFOUNDLY grateful to the other speakers on the panel, @SenRonJohnson , @RobertKennedyJr , and @calleymeans for leadership on this panel.

@GavinNewsom Why are you bragging about fast food jobs? This industry is one of the biggest contributers to the chronic disease epidemic. When are you actually going to care about the people? If it’s never, that’s fine, but GTFO of office and let someone who cares take over.

[Brian Stirling, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS @StirlingDPT]

@GavinNewsom How can the people be reassured that this will only be applied to these obvious situations and not be used as a guise for censorship of true information?

[Casey Means, MD @CaseyMeansMD]

Have you read and shared @RobertKennedyJr’s @WSJ op-ed from today laying out a 12 point policy plan for reversing chronic disease in America? It’s an important, specific plan to help Americans get healthy. This should not be partisan - it’s a set of ideas worth spreading far and wide. https://t.co/py9n4I1jjd

There cannot be enough attention drawn to these appalling graphics from Vani Hari.

Our food system is compromised.

[Collin Rugg @CollinRugg]

NEW: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. comes out with an 'insane' new proposal to end obesity in America which is not Ozempic.

Ready for it?

Giving everyone three healthy organic meals a day instead of paying $3 trillion for Ozempic.

RFK argued against a new proposal that would provide free Ozempic to every obese American.

RFK said that instead of wasting $3 trillion a year on Ozempic, the government could spend a fraction of that money on healthy organic food.

Your government hates this idea.

Now ask yourselves, why?

Guess this is what TIME is calling “journalism” now 🙄

[Brian Stirling, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS @StirlingDPT]

The majority (if not all) ultra-processed foods are bad for you, plain and simple. This is yet another example of how you can't trust mainstream news organizations for anything related to health. Thanks for posting @CaseyMeansMD

[Casey Means, MD @CaseyMeansMD]

Mainstream media playbook: When the culture seems to be turning TOWARDS health, rapidly spin up a BS article (like this one that was published yesterday in TIME) to:

1. SEED CONFUSION: CONFUSION IS KEY - it makes us doubt our convictions about healthy food. Key here is bringing in “experts” who contradict the science and say it’s sensationalized or impractical to implement.

2. NORMALIZE: talk about how nearly 80% of calories come from ultraprocessed food so it can’t be that bad, right? IGNORE that 50% of children now have a CHRONIC DISEASE. Use a meaningless anecdote like the author of the article eating 80% processed food and feeling just fine! 🤦🏼‍♀️

3. DISTRACT AND SHUT DOWN DISCOURSE BY BRINGING IN SOCIAL JUSTICE: Focus intensely on social justice issues and questions of food access rather than science (“what would people *possibly* eat if we changed the food system towards real food?!”). Rather than focusing on ANY meaningful solutions that are actually good for the health and wellbeing of all people, focus on how changing the current system would lead to more food insecurity. Don’t mention that taxpayer money is what leads these foods and to be cheap through corrupt subsidies, and we actually have a rigged system against people of lower socioeconomic status that is the ACTUAL social justice issue. Don’t mention that we could rapidly steer the billions of dollars of processed food subsidies towards REAL food access for all Americans if there was a will to do so.

4. MINIMIZE THE SCIENCE: mention but then QUICKLY minimize the innumerable studies that say ultraprocessed foods impair hormones, metabolic health, and are associated with early death.

5. DEFINITELY DON’T MENTION CONFLICTS OF INTEREST: certainly don’t talk about funding sources and conflicts of interest at NIH, USDA, FDA, academia, OR THE NEWS OUTLET THAT IS PUBLISHING THE ARTICLE.

DON’T FALL INTO THE TRAP

[Brian Stirling, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS @StirlingDPT]

@MdBreathe Maybe we can make healthy foods more affordable and highly processed foods more expensive

[Mary Talley Bowden MD @MaryBowdenMD]

The three biggest health problems that our current administration has completely ignored:
1. Obesity
2. Autism
3. Vaccines

…The U.S. Public Health Service currently recommends 0.7 mg/L, and the World Health Organization has set a safe limit for fluoride in drinking water of 1.5 mg/L”

[Brian Stirling, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS @StirlingDPT]

An official government organization in the HHS is finally pointing at potential issues with Fluoride exposure in water. When will the CDC stop saying it’s completely safe?

TLDR: >1.5 mg in drinking water associated with lower IQ in children.

https://t.co/ApETU6iYMk

[Brian Stirling, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS @StirlingDPT]

Worth noting: “primarily on epidemiology studies in non-U.S. countries such as Canada, China, India, Iran, Pakistan, and Mexico where some pregnant women, infants, and children received total fluoride exposure amounts higher than 1.5 mg fluoride/L of drinking water…”

Like or not like him, @TuckerCarlson brings in great guests in his podcast. If you care about the rising chronic disease epidemic, I encourage you to listen to this podcast: https://t.co/35qdyOsSkL

@CaseyMeansMD dropped out of traditional medicine to try to solve this issue.
