Red Meat and Egg Consumption
"Going to a homesteading conference got me thinking about diet. Having been vegetarians for 30+ years, last January we decided to eat meat again. This came about because my physician and friend, Dr. Brooke Miller convinced me that the way for me to get control of my blood sugar, hypertension and weight was to begin eating meat again. Now, I really wasn’t “that” heavy - but I am light framed, and any excess weight affects me very negatively. That means to get my health back into control, I had to lay off the carbs big-time, stop eating sugar and eat a lot more protein. This all meant that I needed to eat more eggs, white and red meat. I had also come to the conclusion that I needed to stop eating processed soy products, because of the plant estrogens and added chemicals. What that really meant, in a practical sense, was going cold turkey on the variety of plant-based processed foods found in the freezer section. We have always been health conscious, but have “slipped up” once too many times in the past fives years. All those lovely pastries that they put out in hotel buffets! It was time to get serious. We also incorporated intermittent fasting into this major lifestyle change.
Over the course of the last 10 months, I have dropped thirty pounds and Jill has lost even more than that. My stamina is better, allergies are better, my hypertension is under control, my blood sugar and hemoglobin A1C are back to normal and I have been able to significantly cut back on various medications that I am taking to treat the cardiac damage associated with COVID vaccination.
[I can testify this works for me and some friends as well]

Some of these things I still miss
I grew up without safe spaces.
I grew up without trigger warnings.
I drank water from the hose.
I ate peanuts in class.
None of us wore a helmet.
Kids got hurt. We fell down. And we signed a lot of casts.
We couldn’t pause TV. We’d call out “It’s on!” as soon as the commercials started to end (for those who had left the room). And we watched our favourite shows as a family.
There was no next day delivery.
There was no bundle this with that.
There was no internet. Skip the Dishes didn’t exist.
Fast food was not the norm. It was easier to eat healthy. There were home phones. There was VH.........
