  • Study: Anxiety and Depression Drive Global Mental Health Surge to Nearly 1.2 Billion
    Jul 9 2026
    • Nearly 1.2 billion people worldwide were living with a mental disorder in 2023, and anxiety and depression accounted for much of the increase, making mental illness one of the leading causes of disability across the globe
    • Teenagers ages 15 to 19 now carry the highest burden of mental disorders, replacing middle-aged adults as the most affected group and raising concerns about long-term effects on education, relationships and future health
    • Mental health concerns are appearing more often during routine pediatric medical visits, with anxiety-related visits increasing about 300% over the last decade despite a slight decline in overall doctor visits
    • Brain imaging research found that people with anxiety disorders had about 8% lower levels of choline-containing compounds in important brain regions involved in attention, planning, memory and emotional regulation
    • Prioritizing sleep, exercising regularly, strengthening social connections, reducing chronic stress and consuming enough choline from foods such as pastured egg yolks and grass fed beef liver are practical steps that help support long-term brain and mental health resilience

  • The Simple Link Between Core Strength and Brain Health
    Jul 3 2026
    • Your abdominal muscles physically influence your brain every time you move by creating pressure changes that affect brain fluid circulation, nervous system signaling, and mechanical stimulation inside the skull
    • Research showed that exercises combining movement with coordination and focus, including yoga, tai chi, Pilates, dance and bodyweight training, improved memory, attention, decision-making and overall thinking ability across all age groups
    • Shorter exercise programs often produced stronger cognitive improvements than long-term workout programs, making brain-supportive movement realistic and sustainable for people with busy schedules or low energy
    • Bodyweight movements like planks, pushups, bear crawls, mountain climbers, glute bridges and slow squats strengthen your core while simultaneously challenging balance, posture and coordination that sharpen brain function
    • Long periods of sitting reduce the abdominal activation and movement-related brain stimulation that support mental clarity, meaning frequent daily movement and posture changes help maintain focus, reaction speed and cognitive resilience

  • How to Detox Naturally
    Jul 4 2026
    • In my May 2026 CBS Chicago interview, I explained that your body already contains detox systems that work continuously through your liver, skin, kidneys, and digestive tract, but processed foods, seed oils, and dehydration overload those pathways and slow recovery
    • Regular sun exposure and increased outdoor activity naturally support detoxification by improving sweating, circulation, hydration, and cellular energy production
    • Seed oils stored inside your tissues contribute to fatty liver disease, impaired detox capacity, and increased sensitivity to midday sunlight, which helps explain why many people burn and photoage more easily
    • Sweating through sunlight exposure, walking, or sauna use helps your body eliminate waste products naturally while also supporting circulation, hydration balance, and temperature regulation
    • Simple daily habits like eliminating processed foods, hydrating consistently, spending time outdoors, and building regular sweat sessions strengthen your detox systems far more effectively than restrictive cleanses or expensive detox products

FAUCI is all about money & power over humanity, The children is the part (5-11) any age, the man is a liar and then the Beagles? Sweet Jesus. I almost lost my baby girl at 3 months in my arms she nearly died after her DTP. (December 1989) I later went on to be a Paramedic. FAUCI MUST GO. He's a madman in a suit.
