“Medical science has made such tremendous progress that there is hardly a healthy human left.” - Aldous Huxley
"We are fallen. The human gene pool is contaminated. Progeria now accelerates our aging. Mothers can't produce milk and when they do many babies can't digest it because it's laced with hormones and antibiotics.

"Anaconda - Squeeze and push out with the upper body. That ability to push out and tense the upper body makes you more rock solid.
Armor - Your body has to get used to friction and pressure by getting less sensitive and more calloused. This process of toughening your hide and making it more impenetrable and stone-like is what John calls "armor" building.
Arrow - A heavy farmer's carry helps you develop that Arrow-stone strength because as you walk with heavy dumbbells in your hand, your body naturally wants to go slack as you take a step with that heavy weight. You've got to fight that tendency and keep yourself as tense as possible throughout the carry.
Stone - Carry heavy" - - Unknown

"Typical health journey:
Phase I: eating whatever you want. soyber eats and restaurants frequently.
Phase 2: reading ingredient labels, realizing there's a lot of weird sh*t in food
Phase 3: going plant based / more vegetarian
Phase 4: why the f**k are seed oils in everything?
Phase 5: vegetarianism is a scam. Everything is poison other than steak, eggs and milk.
Phase 6: Sunning your genitals. Wearing wired headphones. Not touching receipts. Becoming the weirdest person you know.
Phase 7: buying land, chickens, cows, goats, growing all your own crops, never using any pesticides, regenerating the soil, only eating food you've grown
Phase 8: finding friends who want to do the same. Each specializing in different skills you all need. Sewing. Plumbing. Electrician. Homeschooling. Butter churning. Starting a new society." - Carnivore Aurelius

"I met a man who was 100 years old. He ate everything on the table. He smoked two packages of cigarettes a day. He drank a pint of whiskey every day. And he loved the women. I asked him the secret of longevity. Well he said it's very simple. He said I have no grudges, no peeves, no resentment, no hatred. Every time he said when I open my eyes in the monring I say: 'This is the day the Lord hath made. Rejoice and be glad in it.' Then he said I say for about ten or fifteen minutes every morning: 'The rejuvenating revitalizing power of God almighty flows through me like a golden river vitalizing and transforming every atom of my being. So that every atom of my being dances to the rhythm of the eternal God.' He found the secret of life. The secret of life is joy, inner peace. The invisible ingredient." - Unknown

"The journey of a thousand pounds begins with a single burger." — Chris O'Brien
"The belly rules the mind." — Unkown
"The food problem is a flavor problem. For half a century, we've been making the stuff people should eat–fruits, vegetables, whole grains, unprocessed meats–incrementally less delicious. Meanwhile, we've been making the food people shouldn't eat–chips, fast food, soft drinks, crackers–taste ever more exciting. The result is exactly what you'd expect." - Mark Schatzker
"10 companies control almost everything we eat: Nestle, Coca Cola, Unilever, Danone, MARS, Mondelex, Associated British Foods, Kellogs, General Mills, and PepsiCo. They repackage the same toxic ingredients into 100's of different foods. And guess what. Junk food is 'plant based.'" - Unknown

Won't change as long as there are lobbyists and revolving doors. The average citizen doesn't want to know, doesn't think, doesn't care as long as the next burger and super sized fries are on the way." - Unknown
"America is two super size combo meals from DoorDash away from anarchy." - Unknown
