Great stuff, Fast Eddy! I am definitely on board with all of this.
I would add: go to dry sauna once or twice a week. And eat a small amount of raw garlic and ginger daily. As far as exercise goes, I suggest using a kettlebell a few times a day (simply swing it up and out chest height in front, and back down between your legs, 30 to 40 times). This will get the blood circulating in the major muscles/arteries (enough to cause you to be breathing heavy).
When I am on my end of the world bucket list tour and a gym is not an option ... I bring rubber exercise bands along ... and I run the stairs when in hotels...
Spot on Eddie! Add this book to your unstable nightstand: “Ultra Processed People” by Chris van Tulken. Just like seed-oils, there’s a hidden/ignored Assumption about the so-called Nutrients in ‘food’ among the learned fools.
It's pretty simple to grown your own greens, like spinach and lettuce, with no pesticides. If you're in an apartment, you can still probably do micro-greens in pots.
As many as you can afford... keep in mind you pay for what you get... lots of fillers and low quality ingredients in the cheap ones... I generally buy Thorne products...
If you don't want to break the bank maybe a multi + D...
I got a rash on my legs from taking a supplement and don’t know which one caused it and take lots of supplements . Have tried Triamcinolone 0.1% ointment- did not work and next thisprednisone 2X daily for 7 days- 20mg each. Stopped taking supplements and still rash is not going away. Thank you for any suggestions, Fast Eddy.
Experts have presented several dietary culprits as possible explanations for the rapidly rising rates of chronic disease in industrialized nations, including sugar and saturated fat. However, one commonly consumed food found in the diets of millions has received surprisingly little attention—industrial seed oils.
Contrary to what we’ve been told, industrial seed oils such as soybean, canola, and corn oils are not “heart healthy” or otherwise beneficial for our bodies and brains; in fact, plenty of research indicates that these oils are making us sick. Read on to learn about the history of the industrial seed oil industry, the adverse health effects of consuming these oils, and what dietary fats you should eat instead.
In fact, industrial seed oils, the highly processed oils extracted from soybeans, corn, rapeseed (the source of canola oil), cottonseed, and safflower seeds, were only introduced into the American diet in the early 1900s. How, then, did these oils come to occupy such an influential position not only in the Standard American Diet but in “”Westernized” diets around the world? The story is strange indeed.
In 1870s Cincinnati, two soapmakers—William Procter and James Gamble—decided to enter into business together. While soap had historically been made from rendered pork fat, Procter and Gamble were an innovative pair and decided to create a new type of soap from vegetable oils. Around the same time, oil was discovered in Pennsylvania; it quickly displaced cottonseed oil, which had long been used for lighting, as a fuel source. Cottonseed oil was consigned to the status of “toxic waste” until the enterprising Procter & Gamble realized that all that unwanted cottonseed oil could be used to produce soap. But there was another plus that appealed to their business sensibilities: the oil could be chemically altered via a process called “hydrogenation” to turn it into a solid cooking fat that resembled lard. That’s how an oil formerly classified as “toxic waste” became an integral part of the American diet when Crisco was introduced to the market in the early 1900s. (1)
Soon, other vegetable oils followed. Soybeans were introduced to the United States in the 1930s, and by the 1950s, it had become the most popular vegetable oil in the country. Canola, corn, and safflower oils followed shortly after that. The low cost of these cooking oils, combined with strategic marketing on the part of the oil manufacturers, made them wildly popular in American kitchens even though their use was unprecedented in human history.
How Are Industrial Seed Oils Made?
The general process used to create industrial seed oils is anything but natural. The oils extracted from soybeans, corn, cottonseed, safflower seeds, and rapeseeds must be refined, bleached, and deodorized before they are suitable for human consumption.
First, seeds are gathered from the soy, corn, cotton, safflower, and rapeseed plants.
Next, the seeds are heated to extremely high temperatures; this causes the unsaturated fatty acids in the seeds to oxidize, creating byproducts that are harmful to human and animal health.
The seeds are then processed with a petroleum-based solvent, such as hexane, to maximize the amount of oil extracted from them.
Next, industrial seed oil manufacturers use chemicals to deodorize the oils, which have a very off-putting smell once extracted. The deodorization process produces trans fats, which are well known to be quite harmful to human health.
Finally, more chemicals are added to improve the color of the industrial seed oils.
Six Reasons Industrial Seed Oils Are Terrible for Your Health
There are six main problems with industrial seed oils:
The consumption of industrial seed oils represents an evolutionary mismatch.
Eating industrial seed oils raises our omega-6-to-omega-3 fatty acid ratios, with significant consequences for our health.
Industrial seed oils are unstable and oxidize easily.
They contain harmful additives.
They’re derived from genetically modified crops.
When industrial seed oils are repeatedly heated, even more toxic byproducts are created.
We all know that their thin skins make berries, peaches and apples amongst the most contaminated fruits when it comes to pesticides. So when I saw bags of organic nuts in the shops, I thought it was a bit of a joke: I mean, have you ever tried to hand crack a walnut or Brazil nut? It’s well nigh impossible without major tools. Their skins are so tough, they’re not even called skins – they’re shells! So it seems like it would be really, really difficult for pesticides to penetrate those, right?
Your prose on seed oils (which you all delegate under the "industrial oils" category), is just hogwash. Do not put soybean oild, rapeseed oil, and the genetically-modified rapeseed called CAN-ola (CAN = Canada, because it was invented in Canada) in the same bucket with other GOOD, HEALTHY seed oils, such as SUNFLOWER OIL.
What do you have against Sunflower oil? It is entirely natural and it was used for human consumption for CENTURIES.
The distillation process, which involves high temperatures, yes, it is destructive. Industrialization took shortcuts with these processes, but in the pas sunflower seeds were COLD-pressed, like your dear beloved "extra virgin olive oil".
Don't you think that they are ALSO taking shortcuts with EVOO? Do you REALLY think that that most of them are cold-pressed nowadays?
Anyways, I think that saying that SOME seed oils such as SUNFLOWER oil are toxic and bad for your health, by putting them in the same bucket as corn oil, rapeseed oil (rapeseed is used to make industrial oil for various paints and engine oils), and the poisonous Canola (genetically modified rapeseed), is a fallacy.
Industrial seed oils are highly processed and refined vegetable oils that have been chemically altered to increase their shelf life and stability.
These oils are often used in processed foods, fast food, and packaged snacks.
They can also be found in many cosmetics and personal care products.
The most common industrial seed oil is soybean oil, which is a major component of margarine, shortening, salad dressings, mayonnaise, sauces, baked goods and other processed foods.
Canola oil is another popular industrial seed oil derived from rapeseed plants that has been heavily modified for use as an ingredient in many different types of food products.
Other examples include corn oil, sunflower oil and cottonseed oil.
These industrial seed oils contain high levels of omega-6 fatty acids which can cause inflammation when consumed in large amounts over time or when eaten alongside low amounts of omega-3 fatty acids (which help reduce inflammation).
This type of diet imbalance can lead to health issues such as obesity, heart disease and diabetes if not addressed properly with dietary changes or supplementation.
I think you are confused, and it is you who should rather spend some time for good old learning...
Only the rapeseed oil is considered a truly INDUSTRIAL oil (used to manufacture certain non-synthetic engine / machinery oils, or oil-based paints, etc). Oils like canola, sunflower, corn, soybean oils are NOT technically INDUSTRIAL oils, because they are, well .. edible. One doesn't die / gets majorly poisoned by ingesting them.
If I, personally, was using the term INDUSTRIAL in association with any of the aforementioned oils, in a rather metaphorical way. The rapeseed oils is the most representative, and true-to-its-name - of being considered truly INDUSTRIAL.
And ... I'll take sunflower oil ANY day over CAN-OIL-A, rapeseed, corn and soybean oils. Because sunflower is super healthy and nutritious, and not containing any GMOs. Used by farmers and rural communities for CENTURIES. Including Greeks, Eastern Europeans, etc.
Just a note to alert you to outrageous scams in Europa, reportedly involving our dear Sicilian brothers, where tankers of "cold-pressed virgin olive oil" were checked and seized, as the contents were anything but (also an ongoing scandal with imported honey, btw). Copilot: 'Yes, there was a major olive oil fraud scandal in Europe, with Germany playing a key role in exposing it. Investigations revealed that criminal organizations, including the Italian Mafia, were involved in tampering with low-quality oils—adding chlorophyll, beta-carotene, and soybean oil to make them look like extra virgin olive oil.
'Authorities seized 150,000 liters of counterfeit olive oil in Italy and Germany, with criminals reportedly making €8 million per year from the scheme. Another operation in Spain and Italy uncovered 260,000 liters of adulterated oil, leading to 11 arrests.
'The Agromafia, a branch of the Italian Mafia, has long been involved in food fraud, with olive oil being one of their most lucrative scams. Studies suggest that up to 69% of exported European olive oil may not be what it claims to be.'
Correct about sunflower. There is absolutely nothing wrong, toxic, or unhealthy about sunflower oil. I take sunflower over crazy canola, corn, or soybean oil, ANY DAY. I consider sunflower oil almost on part with your beloved EVOO.
I do believe the Can-o-(i)-la is toxic. Because it's essentially rapeseed genetically modified to be easy for the human body to metabolize it. I did research on its history a bit. Also, what is essentially rapeseed, is what's being used for making industrial / machinery oils.
I wouldn't touch canola with a 12 foot pole. It makes you fat. Noticed that immediately while I was living in ... Canada. And the very moment I noticed that, my family and I switched immediately back to the good and trusty sunflower oil. More expensive than canola, and probably for a reason. We've been using sunflower oil for more than 3 decades in Eastern Europe, in our country of birth, and no issues. Our old parents have always been using it, and they are in good health.
So, extra virgin oil for Mediterranean cuisine (salads mostly) and sunflower oil for any other cooking needs == happy combination.
CANOLA is one CLEAR, DEFINITIVE example of genetically modified seed oil.
A research instituted in Canada took the RAPESEED plant, which by default, in its natural original form is not digestible (of if it is, it's less pleasant) and modified GENETICALLY. And they named the new product CAN-OIL-A. "Can" as in Canada.
=> <<< "Canola" redirects here. For other uses, see Canola (disambiguation). >>>
=> <<< A genetically engineered rapeseed that is tolerant to the herbicide Roundup (glyphosate) was first introduced to Canada in 1995 (Roundup Ready). A genetically modified variety developed in 1998 is considered to be the most disease- and drought-resistant canola variety to date. In 2009, 90% of the Canadian crop was herbicide-tolerant.[21] In 2005, 87% of the canola grown in the US was genetically modified.[22] In 2011, out of the 31 million hectares of canola grown worldwide, 8.2 million (26%) were genetically modified. >>>
Actually jew-pedia is omitting the whole truth. They fail to say an important thing: CANOLA got born from RAPESEED plant through BIOENGINEERING / genetic modification, and NOT due to a need to make it herbicide resistant!!! It was genetically modified because a certain acidic compound is not easily digestible by humans. Jew-pedia is hiding the complete truth.
Maybe I can find a more clarifying article not controlled by the jews and the globalist cabal, and get back to you.
Fuck Canola Oil... Fuck Hexane... Fuck Solvents... Fuck the pesticides in all but certified organic oil... the pesticide residues are probably as harmful or maybe worse than the chemical solvents they use to process this shit.
I exclusively use cold pressed organic olive oil from a trustworthy source.
Oh and don't drink tap water... that's chock full of toxic shit including chlorine
Most canola is chemically extracted using a solvent called hexane, and heat is often applied which can affect the stability of the oil’s molecules, turn it rancid, destroy the omega-3s in it, and can even create trans fats.
“Cold-pressed” canola oil exists but is very expensive and hard to find.
First is the use of a solvent such as hexane to extract the maximum amount of oil from the seed. Hexane is a very volatile solvent (boiling point 69ºC, or 156ºF) with a very low toxicity (LD50 in rats of 49.0 milliliters per kilogram). Hexane has been used to extract oils from plant material since the 1930s, and “there is no evidence to substantiate any risk or danger to consumer health when foods containing trace residual concentrations of hexane are ingested.” [1]
It has been estimated that refined vegetable oils extracted with hexane contain approximately 0.8 milligrams of residual hexane per kilogram of oil (0.8 ppm). [2] It is also estimated that the level of ingestion of hexane from all food sources is less than 2% of the daily intake from all other sources, primarily gasoline fumes. There appears to be very little reason for concern about the trace levels of hexane in canola oil.
Another concern is the report that canola oil might contain trans-fats that have been linked with significant health problems. In fact, canola oil does contain very low levels of trans-fat, as do all oils that have been deodorized. Deodorization is the final step in refining ALL vegetable oils. This process produces the bland taste that consumers want.
So what other options are there if one wants to avoid RBD oils?
Should a consumer want to avoid RBD oils, cold-pressed oils can be an option, since they are not treated with heat, not extracted with solvents, and not deodorized.
Beware! Many supplements and especially manufactured vitamins are poisons.
Check Agent131711's substack.

Well done fast Eddy.
Re "take supplements": definitely do not supplement Vitamin A. One of the biggest causes of chronic illness is Vitamin A toxicity.
yes!!!! very nasty stuff!
Make sure you eat sautéed scallops on your salads 🥗
It's pretty simple to grown your own greens, like spinach and lettuce, with no pesticides. If you're in an apartment, you can still probably do micro-greens in pots.
What supplements do you recommend?
As many as you can afford... keep in mind you pay for what you get... lots of fillers and low quality ingredients in the cheap ones... I generally buy Thorne products...
