Friend,
I treat every flight likes it's my first one. I visually check fuel, oil and airworthiness. Gear, tires and every nut and bolt is inspected like a kid seeing a plane for the first time.
I'm the same way with food and pills. I study the label rigorously. The first thing I look for is sugar - cane sugar, organic sugar, raw sugar, whatever. If it's there I don't buy it.
Second, I look for synthetic ingredients - things like vitamin D (D3 or D2), folic acid, calcium, CoQ10, B12 or niacin. I stay away from them all.
Third, I look to see what the capsule is made of. If it reads "veggie cap," then I know it's not good for me or my family.
Few people understand the definition of "veggie cap." Most envision a shiny hunk of verdurous broccoli and assume it's a healthy addition. Wrong.
A veggie cap means your nutrients are wrapped in hypromellose, a glue-like substance that can bind-up nutrients and block absorption. I've never used "veggie caps," not do I swallow them.
This morning's pre-flight went perfect. My bird was ready to fly. A 6am liftoff, I was met with smooth, warm air and absolutely zero air traffic.
I strapped on oxygen and clawed my way to cooler air at 13,500 ft. It was just me, the sky and my Bluetooth playing a mix of Tupac, Kevin Gates and Slipknot. It wasn't long before I was looking down at Canyon de Chelly.
Canyon de Chelly was the longtime home of the resilient and resourceful Navajo people. In the early 1800's it was invaded by forces led by New Mexico governor Lt. Antonio Narbona. Like a greedy terrorist he wanted more land...Over the years of fighting, the resulting devastation led to the surrender of the Navajos and their removal to Bosque Redondo, New Mexico.
Today, our food and pills are being invaded by Big Pharma, in total secret.
Few people are aware of the invasion as shown by the growing tendency to accept anything labeled as a "vitamin."
Start reading labels like your life depends on it.
Dare to live young,
The People's Chemist
