Chronic inflammation is at the root of nearly every disease. And guess what spikes inflammation? Excess sugar, seed oils, and processed carbs.
Triglycerides > Cholesterol
Cholesterol is not the problem, high triglycerides are. Triglycerides spike from excessive carbs, sugars, and seed oils.
Want a healthy heart? Lower triglycerides, NOT cholesterol.

Cholesterol and Heart Disease—The Truth Nobody Told You
For decades, we’ve been told that cholesterol causes heart disease.
What if I told you that’s NOT true?
A breakdown of what the science actually says: 👇
1. Cholesterol is essential
Cholesterol is the foundation for hormones, brain function, and cell integrity. Without it, your body can’t function properly.
2. LDL is not “bad.”
LDL carries cholesterol where it’s needed—especially for hormone production. Lowering it too much can cause fatigue, hormonal imbalances, and even depression.
3. The real cause of heart disease?
👉 Inflammation
👉 High triglycerides
👉 Insulin resistance
👉 Seed oils & refined carbs
Lowering cholesterol does NOT fix these problems.
4. Triglycerides are the real danger.
✔️ Low triglycerides + high LDL = lower heart disease risk
❌ High triglycerides + low LDL = metabolic dysfunction
5. Cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins) come with risks.
❌ Increased diabetes risk
❌ Cognitive decline
❌ Reduced testosterone & hormone production
6. The best way to improve heart health?
✔️ Lower triglycerides
✔️ Avoid seed oils & processed carbs
✔️ Eat real, animal-based foods
✔️ Get quality sleep & exercise
It’s time to rethink cholesterol. High cholesterol isn’t the problem—poor metabolic health is.
Cholesterol and Brain Health
Did you know your brain is made of ~60% fat?
And yet, people are being told to lower their cholesterol… which is critical for brain function.
My controversial take 🧵👇
1️⃣ Cholesterol is essential for neuron function.
Your brain needs cholesterol to build and maintain neurons.
2️⃣ Low cholesterol is linked to cognitive decline.
Studies show that low LDL levels correlate with memory loss and Alzheimer’s disease.
3️⃣ Statins can damage brain function.
By lowering cholesterol, statins impair neurotransmitter production—leading to brain fog, forgetfulness, and even dementia.
4️⃣ Better approach?
✔️ Eat healthy fats (tallow, butter, eggs)
✔️ Avoid inflammatory foods (seed oils, sugar)
✔️ Support cholesterol levels naturally
Don’t starve your brain. Cholesterol is NOT the enemy.
Only nature holds the power to create real food.

Had to support one of my favorite Bitcoiners 😊 so excited to read this and get into some of the intense stories I’ve heard so much about nostr:nprofile1qqsxc56ajk5xtxerf4dqspgrfa0s5elrcr80lnz9nasldq87j3zzf0cc5h4hk
Laundry Detergent: The Poison Hiding in Your Clothes ☠️
👕 You wash your clothes to “clean” them, but mainstream detergents do the opposite—they coat your fabrics in toxic chemicals that cling to your skin & get inhaled daily. That “fresh” scent? A synthetic cocktail of irritants, hormone disruptors & respiratory toxins
If it lingers on your clothes for days, imagine what it’s doing to your body
🚨 Toxins Hiding in Your Detergent
🛑 “Fragrance” = Hundreds of Hidden Chemicals
Companies aren’t required to disclose what’s in their scents. Phthalates, allergens & endocrine disruptors are all fair game
🛑 SLS & SLES = Skin & Lung Irritants
These foaming agents strip natural oils, cause skin irritation & can even trigger asthma
🛑 Optical Brighteners Fake Cleanliness
They don’t actually remove stains—they just coat fabric to reflect light so your clothes look cleaner than they are. Meanwhile, they irritate skin & build up in your system
🛑 Phosphates Are Bad News for You & the Planet
They help detergents break down dirt but contaminate waterways & contribute to skin allergies
🛑 Bleach: The Most Common Household Toxin
Inhalation can cause breathing issues, headaches & chemical burns. When mixed with other cleaners? Even worse
Why They Keep Selling It
Big Detergent isn’t cleaning your clothes—it’s coating them. They load up on synthetic fillers to make products cheaper, smell stronger & keep you coming back
If your detergent has a bright color, intense scent & a long list of unrecognizable ingredients, you might want to rethink what’s touching your skin 24/7
💡 Looking for a real clean? We love Zum (@IndigoWild)—a company we have no affiliation with, but they make a truly non-toxic detergent that actually works. We stick with their detergents that only contain essential oils, no fragrance. Our favorites are the Patchouli & Sea Salt detergents
If you want to keep it super simple, white vinegar is the best and doesn’t make your clothes smell vinegary. (Add a little baking soda for whites)
Processed Food: The Biggest Scam on Your Plate
🥤 The food industry has one job—sell you cheap, addictive, processed junk while making you believe it’s healthy. They slap words like “natural,” “heart-healthy” & “fortified” on boxes filled with seed oils, synthetic additives & sugar bombs that wreck your health while keeping you hooked
If it has a commercial, a mascot, or a long ingredient list, it’s probably not real food
🚨 What’s Wrong With Processed Food?
🛑 Seed Oils in Everything
Canola, soybean, sunflower, corn, safflower—these cheap, highly processed oils are in almost every packaged food. Inflammatory, oxidized & linked to metabolic disease
🛑 Artificial Sweeteners & Preservatives
Aspartame, sucralose, sodium benzoate, BHT—marketed as “safe,” but linked to gut damage, hormone disruption & long-term health issues
🛑 Fake Fortification = Nutrient Deception
Refined grains & cereals are stripped of nutrients & then “fortified” with synthetic vitamins your body doesn’t absorb properly
🛑 High-Fructose Corn Syrup & Its Sneaky Cousins
Glucose syrup, dextrose, maltodextrin—cheap, addictive fillers that overload the liver, spike insulin & drive cravings
What’s the Alternative?
Eat real food. The best way to take control of your health is to ditch the boxes & eat what your great-grandparents ate
✅ Source locally from ranchers, farmers & fishermen who care about quality, not shelf life
✅ Stick to single-ingredient foods—if it needs a label, it’s probably too processed
✅ Prioritize nutrient-dense staples like grass-fed beef, pastured eggs, raw dairy, wild-caught fish, local honey & fresh fruit
The food industry wants you addicted—but you can break free. Shop local, eat real & give your body what it actually needs

How to get REM sleep every night?
•stick to a constant sleep schedule- go to bed & wake up at the same time everyday
•get morning sunlight-helps regulate your circadian rhythm
•limit blue light exposure-avoid screens at least an hour before bed, and wear blue light blocking glasses
•limit caffeine & alcohol- especially in the afternoon & evening
•early physical activity- engage in daily exercise earlier in the day.
•keep your bedroom cool & dark- ideal temp is around 65 degrees
•eat a whole foods diet-prioritize eating protein & healthy fats
•try herbal teas- chamomile, valerian root & passionflower can aid sleep
•optimize magnesium intake- supports relaxation & deep sleep
*Your brain also detoxes during REM sleep. REM is crucial for memory consolidation, emotional processing & brain restoration.

Private property rights aren’t just important—they’re the foundation of a free and thriving society.
Almost every major problem today stems from the state trampling property rights. When the government interferes—whether through taxes, regulations, or outright theft—it strips individuals of control over what’s rightfully theirs.
A truly free society means you own what’s yours, and you protect it by any means necessary—without the state telling you otherwise. If someone violates your property, there should be no recourse against you for defending it.
When property rights are upheld, markets flourish, wealth is created, and people are free to live without coercion. When they’re violated, you get economic destruction, dependency, and a ruling class that dictates what you can and can’t do with your own land, labor, and life.
Government is the greatest threat to private property. The solution? Get out of the way.
