    Yeah, I’m 45ish and I went zero carb to get rid of body fat and bad health. The common diet is fucking us up.

      The diet; the microplastics that you eat, drink and breathe; the endocrine disruptors that you huff from your home’s PCB-finished wood floor, or dishwasher detergent buildup inside you; extremely hygienic environments which make for overeager immune systems; pollution; the pesticides that Monsanto assured you are totally safe and go great with their proprietary genemodded sterile cereals which they also assure are totally safe; the near-eternal organofluorides you get exposed to because there’s a chemical plant 100km upriver with a gung-ho attitude towards waste disposal, and all the slightly scratched Teflon pans you kept using because it’s fine; or the trillion other things we’re doing to fuck up just about literally everything that lives anywhere on this planet, including our own sorry asses

        I eat highland raised beef, fed entirely on their pasture, so probably very little pesticide or gene edited cereals

        It’s only national parks uphill, upstream, from them

        I use cast iron to cook, I dislike plastic cooking tools, so I use pans that can tolerate steel.

        I drink from glass almost exclusively and I donate plasma, which is probably the only way of getting rid of PFAS chemicals (the “forever chemicals”)

        You and I have heard the same stories. I follow “better to be safe than sorry”

        I really care about food

        Oh don’t forget about asbestos
