Toxic Food, Profitable Sickness: The Hidden Connection

I recently heard an interview with Calley and Casey Means that really resonated with me regarding my concerns about the state of health in America. Their message struck a chord with me, and I believe it's crucial for everyone to hear. Casey Means, a physician who left a thriving career in traditional medicine, and her brother Calley, a whistleblower advocating against the corruption in the food and pharmaceutical industries, have joined forces to address what they see as the root cause of America’s health crisis: our toxic food environment.

Casey and Calley have a compelling story. Casey was frustrated with the medical profession's approach to treating illness, as she found herself constantly treating symptoms rather than addressing the underlying causes of her patients' ailments. Calley, on the other hand, was disturbed by the overwhelming influence of big food and big pharma on both doctors and patients. Together, they concluded that our poor health is due to the modern processed foods dominating our diets, and the reason we remain sick is because the pharmaceutical and medical industries benefit from this steady stream of unhealthy patients. This post will discuss their concerns and recommend the solutions.

The connection between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vitamin D status has been known for some time. A 2015 review of the literature concluded that being deficient in vitamin D presented a 21% greater chance of developing Alzheimer's compared to those with adequate levels of vitamin D above 50 nmol/L. Researchers at the University of Calgary's Hotchkiss Brain Institute in Canada and the University of Exeter in England explored the relationship between vitamin D supplementation and dementia in more than 12,388 subjects. They found that subjects who had a history of vitamin D supplementation were 40% less likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease. The results are exaggerated due to normal statistical trickery, but there is still a strong correlation. I will break the study down and explain the real results. I will also give my two cents on whether you should supplement.

The Truth Behind The Claim That Viagra Prevents Alzheimer's Disease By 69%

Much has been written about a new study that claims Viagra can reduce the incidence of Alzheimer’s disease by as much as 69%. I purchased the study and took a look at their data. I liked the study and the researchers are reporting their findings with accuracy. The problem is they are using standard statistics to describe their findings. To the unsuspecting public, it may appear as if a new miracle cure has been found. Sadly, this is far from the case. I am, however, excited about their findings. Let’s take a look at their findings.

Populations Most At Risk of Dying From Covid-19 and How to Lower the Risk

I was curious to see what population segments are most at risk of death from a Covid-19 infection. It turns out that age is a huge risk factor for coronavirus deaths. Also, underlying medical conditions are also a big factor in whether you live or die from the virus. Today’s post is all about who is most at risk, and how you can lower your risk and survive Covid-19.
