The man who sleeps nine hours and eats clean and never drinks and exercises daily is the deadest man i know btw. his bloodwork is immaculate and he has nothing to say. the body is a temple and no God showed up. meanwhile the ones who actually see things are running on four hours and cigarettes and something chewing at them from inside that wont let them become vegetables. consciousness is expensive it costs health. you pay with the body. the flame eats the candle thats the deal
A lot of physicians express surprise, shock and in some cases horror that so many people are seeking out alternative means of healing.
Instead of branding everyone as quacks and grifters, perhaps it might better serve to look inward and see why so many people have become disillusioned with what medicine has become and seek to fix that instead!
Doubling down and depending on pharmaceutical marketing is not going to make things better in the long run.
Forcing people to go to school was a mistake.
People used to read books to learn.
Most successful men were self-taught and started work early.
School has made people ignorant and pacified.
Vienna, 1922. Ludwig von Mises watched his middle-class neighbors literally wheelbarrow worthless paper marks to buy bread. Professional salaries became meaningless overnight. The very people who had saved responsibly—doctors, teachers, small business owners—saw their life's work evaporate.
Mises observed: "The middle classes are being destroyed by a monetary policy that expropriates their savings." He understood what politicians refused to admit: inflation isn't just rising prices. It's the systematic transfer of wealth from savers to debtors, from the prudent middle class to the politically connected.
Sound familiar? Today's "moderate" inflation follows the same playbook, just with better PR.
Attia's @PeterAttiaMD interaction w/Epstein, while dishonorable, does not cancel his medical opinion. His association w/protein sellers (highly processed) does; explains his pumping protein overconsumption against all scientific evidence.

Filming has started for John Hillcoat’s BLOOD MERIDIAN adaptation.
“Earthen causeways across the marshland. Egrets in their rookeries white as candles among the moss. The wind has a raw edge to it and leaves lope by the roadside and skelter on in the night fields.”
Blood Meridian is Moby Dick without the Comedy.
Suttree is Huck Finn without the Comedy.
Cormac McCarthy is a Tragic Pessimist-- which is why "The Road" (which he wrote for his newborn son) ends inauthentically for him-- he was willing a "Comic Optimism" he lacks.
