Mass jabs with the Pfizer mRNA shot began in Israel on Dec. 19, 2020. Nearly every Israeli adult has received two doses and a booster. Many have received a fourth shot.
This is a chart of Covid deaths in Israel over the last two years. The day vaccinations began is highlighted.
The end.
The media and public health authorities have only two choices: admit the truth of their failure, or continue to deny it and tear themselves apart. All the censorship in the world cannot hide a reality this obvious.
As I've gotten older, it has been my habit to go long on decisions. Owning property, relationships and other major life choices. Not taking these shots has been maybe the best from an impact / recovery standpoint. You can always get out of a bad house deal but there is no getting out of these shots once taken. Sadly, many people will find this out the hard way. Pray, plan, prepare, RESIST.
Feel the same way, however, I'm 59 and fat, so because I didn't take the vax route I felt that I needed an alternative plan. I assumed that inaction was too risky. For me it was vitamin D sufficiency (I take 7500 IU per day and my blood test shows that I'm "only" 43 ng/ml). I also take quercetin + zinc a few times a week, and during the Covid Wars I took 12 mg of ivermectin every 4 days. I have lost 20 lbs in the past year (not good enough) and I walk 10 miles a week. The silver lining in this bio war against the people is that some have learned to improve/augment their own immune system, and also to know that most doctors are blind and obedient followers of authority, no matter how silly and corrupt that authority may be.
Good for you!! I do the same, except Ivermectin. Can't seem to get it with CC. I do not have Pay Pal. Nor would I. Not giving checks ahead with my info to other countries. Anyways.. I was overweight. 204 at 5'8. I got a 5 month old pup and started training( lots of walking). Lost 70 lbs in one year. Only change in diet was much less sugar and eating in 8 hr window. Nothing after 6 pm. You would be amazed at how easy it is to get used to. I used to stay up til all hours and eat mindlessly.. Before. One thing this nightmare has taught me is how to research. I admit I bought into this the first month. Until... I realized there were NO BIOHAZARD BINS AND BIG BOX STORES COULD STAY OPEN!! That got me started, as well as the whole mask nonsense!! What I have learned is we have all been lied to our whole lives. Everything.. Not just Covid.
No kidding we have been lied to for decades starting with Ancel Keys' fake, pro-sugar lobby takedown of 'fats' leading to a society built on sugar. Hell, since all vaccines have come out after herd immunity has been reached(yes, Smallpox) I question everything.
I always think back to my mother who was a nurse purposely putting me in a group of kids with red spots(chix pox)...
And how about sunscreen..... blocks vitamin D, it's full of chemical toxins and our skin is the largest organ of our body. Destroys ocean eco systems. Rickets outbreaks have been happening in small children as they are lathered in sunscreen, getting no nourishing sun on their skin. I honestly think sunscreen promotion is part of a plan to destroy human health for profit. Enjoy the sun, seek shade, wear protective clothing and seek natural sunscreen like coconut oil. Yes, it works and has been used for millennia
Finally, someone who agrees with me about sunscreen. I do not think they are intentionally out to destroy human health, but they are definitely out for profit.
I started wondering about sunscreen when we started going to Greece every year and the only people slathering it all over their kids were the tourists. You can literally spot the North Americans by the SPF factor on their bottles, lol
Yes agreed. Profit is the main driver. Find (or create) a problem and offer a profitable(and perpetual) solution. Seeking profit might lead one to engage in sinister activity to maintain market hold. "The sun is bad for you" narrative has convinced many to be deprived of vital, life essential vitamin D
OMG you strike hard at the biggest profit in the drug and FDA cult. I got so in love with the sun we found our own private beach where textiles are cancer causing (my excuse). How about Obama's 10 percent tax on tanning beds. The High Pressure system is fantastic. Nothing kills viruses faster than UV. The UVC lights are great for the air conditioning system. Nothing survives.
Agreed, stopped using sunscreen years ago. Just look at a chart of US skin cancer deaths this past century. Deaths up dramatically with the intro of sunscreen.
I figured that out years ago, live in Australia, go to the beach and have never used sunscreen. You always tan very gradually. I do so unintentionally in daffleled sun. Have never peeled. (Did once when I was very young and learnt my lesson). I am glad I am not on any meds. I reckoned correct diet etc would illuminate any “need” for that.
Wow thank you for this sunscreen insight! I always let my kids get a little sun first. Myself as well. Then I put it on. Skin cancer has been found in my family. Maybe I need an even Less sunscreen strategy. Not surprised.
A LOT of science research produces nothing. As in nothing repeatable despite claims of significance. Read em and weep. This starts with bad NIH and granting agency decision sending big $$ to the most sensationalized ideas/projects. What do you get in return? Even more sensationalized associations which are not real but they do deliver big grants and headlines.
I read some time ago that conventional sun screens would reduce the levels of skin cancer - except for melanoma. Higher levels of sun exposure reportedly showed an inverse relationship to melanoma. In other words, sunscreens helped prevent the largely harmless skin cancers while getting a fair amount of sun decreases the rate or melanomas. (Sorry, no references on this - but there is probably more information on line about this relationship).
You are so right about the faulty research done by Keys regarding fat in our diets. And then the “low-fat heart healthy” diet became a religion. It got to the point that anyone who disagreed with the hypothesis about the heart healthy low-fat diet couldn’t get grant funding and/or were shunned by colleagues. Sound familiar with “climate change” and with covid?
A fascinating book on how all of this actually happened and how it has negatively affected our society is “The Big Fat Surprise” by Nina Teicholz. (Good fats actually belong in our diets. Hooray!) It’s an easy read and is so interesting - not to mention helpful for healthy eating.
"...couldn’t get grant funding and/or were shunned by colleagues." Sigh. Government never has new ideas; guess what Tony FauXi controls? $50B in research funding and we don't have to guess who gets cash and who doesn't. Pretty frightening, really. BUT! That is why we make the investment into people like Alex - we can learn far more from each other, right!? I love these Substacks because we don't need other sources for the most part. Thanks for the mention of that book. My oldest just finished her BioMed degree awaiting med school and she has helped our whole family readjust our diets back to fat based(tastes way gooder, too :-D).
1. Our pcp in MA (from which we escaped over a year ago back to my home state of Florida) was Harvard medical and at MASS General and was the one who recommended the book. He said he knew that’s the way I grew up diet wise (eggs/bacon for breakfast and meat, 2 veggies and a salad for dinner - low carbs ) and said he was furious with himself as he always reads all the studies but incorrectly assumed the low-fat heart healthy diet was “settled science.” Well, surprise, surprise.
2. The other story is about my brother-in-law who has his doctorate in animal physiology and was a prof at Texas A&M and then worked in genetics for a large cattle ranch in Oklahoma. His doc wanted him to lose weight and lower his cholesterol by going on a low fat diet. He made a bet with his doc he could do both by losing the carbs and increasing his good fat. Bingo. He won the bet.
Common sense and moderation solve a lot of problems. Unfortunately, both seem to be in short supply.
Exactly! I learned about the Ancel Keys sham about 20 years ago, and I think what I learned from that made it natural for me to be an instant skeptic when the Covid business began.
Yes!!!! The sugar lobby and everyone fell for it!! All that yucky low fat food with three times the sugar added to make it tasty, fat is flavour folks!!
Awesome story. Well done. The amount of lying has definitely increased. Although shooting JFK and getting away with it is some kind of high water mark.
Until I read Douglass’s, “JFK, the Unspeakable” I would have thought you were a conspiracy nut. I read it in 2020 early in the pandemic. The manipulations and the cover-ups and censoring and changing official records of the Warren Commission was rhyming much too close for comfort with the media/state response to Covid. Nothing has changed in 50 years, except the deep state is now out in the open flaunting their misdeeds and rubbing our noses in them. Diabolical narcissists, the lot of them.
Ever hear Ann Barnhardt's video on diabolical narcissism? I can't quite go all the way with her and some people might be put off a bit with her religious orientation, but WOW she hits the nail on the head over and over.
Hi Candis, no, I have never watched her video on diabolical narcissism, but I do read her blog regularly. It's where I learned the term "diabolical narcissist," and her aphorism that "anyone who is crazy enough to run for a national office is automatically disqualified for that office." She's over-the-top, an Ann Coulter on steroids (hmmm...two fearless women named Ann), but as you say, "she hits the nail on the head over and over."
You do realize that obama changed the weight requirements for what Obese is? Wanting to sell weight loss surgery. Having Gastropresis what I eat takes longer to digest. I use smaller plates, bowls, and cups to cut portions. Very accurate about the after 6 pm, we slow down, burn less calories. 2 pieces of news went through yesterday, the Bentonville Wal-mart warehouse caught fire, and 1 in Tiawan on the same day. Less Chinese crap. BUTCHERED HEALTHCARE by ROBERT YOHO, is a must read. Helps you understand better the incestous relationship of Pharma/government. $5, on kindle. Then you have FJB EO TURNING OUR MONEY INTO DIGITAL CURRENCY. QR'S FOR SHOPPING. AND ANY HACKER, OR GOVERNMENT CAN SUCK YOUR MONEY DRY.
Yes. I bought "The Real Anthony Fauci" on Audible and listened to the whole thing over a period of weeks. It is an amazing book, well written. It could easily be recognized as one of the top books of the 21st century. It documents Fauci's 50-year pattern of suppressing the cheap drugs that easily solve diseases in favor of his expensive pharmaceuticals in which he is vested, and often which have proven to be toxic. It documents his long history of utterly destroying the careers of real doctors and scientists who sought the truth and were willing to put their lives on the line to expose him. It is the story of how to create and perfect a medical / pharmaceutical monopoly that morphs into a tyranny. It will become obvious from reading this book that his lack of a moral compass has resulted in many thousands of unnecessary deaths, and many thousands more ending up with poor health. These include many deaths during medical experiments, particularly on vulnerable children and minorities. The health of Americans over the 50 years of his career, during the time that he has been charge of public health, has drastically declined, and this book shows you how he did it. It is a book that could bring Fauci down and I hope it does. Watching Fauci after the book came out, I think it is having an effect. I don't think he is capable of self-reflection, but I can imagine the horror he is experiencing at the thought of his crimes being found out and made known to the world. I personally think that every person who reads this book, just by knowing the truth, the real truth, moves the needle toward a better world. Knowledge is power.
You need to read Robert Yoho's Butchered by Healthcare, Pharma, Government to understand the Mechnism how they do it. He published just before Covid, though he does Podcast on it. It's the GLUE than makes the rest make sense. $4.99 kindle. Lots of links you can look up.
It's hard to read due to the constant disgust and anger factor...I could only handle it in small bits. So many people should be in prison for what they have done over the years. Another great read to get a full historical perspective on all vaccines is "Dissolving Illusions." Some of the behaviors we have seen in 2022 with regard to vaccines was also done in the late 1800's with the smallpox vaccine development. There have always been scientists pushing a vaccine and censoring and trying to ruin those who dissent with the vaccine. I was amazed to read how many things have not changed.
Got it, got two copies, wanted to give one to my daughter and son in law. They both got the shots, because they thought they are protecting the adults. We continued to live our lives mask free, with hugs and people around. Now they read the documents that came out after the FOIA request and say they don't want to hear or read any more. They understand now, and will not get boosted, but... can't deal with more information. They know Fauci lied. I need to start it, as soon as I am done with what I am reading.
I got it, already aware that Fauci was mass a murderer. And I've still been shocked time after time by the sheer duplicitousness of the man. He is unquestionably the most prolific killer in American in history, including Patton, Grant and any of our other great generals. Think I'm exaggerating? Read the book.
About Wal-Mart's warehouses...a huge one in Plainfield, IN burned yesterday also. (3-16-22) Totally destroyed. Paraphrasing the fire marshall/captain on site, the warehouse was totally full, packed floor to ceiling. --- Makes you wonder about all the shortages, huh?
Omg 😳. So many lies at all levels. It’s just like supposedly there are like 8-10 container ships being held out to sea that the LA ports aren’t processing, due to transportation shortages? Is this real?
It all comes down to the absurd 'one size fits all' philosophy behind federalism. Great for control mechanisms and harvesting the big bucks, disastrous on one level or another for the majority of individuals.
Some good news is that the New Hampshire legislature has just passed legislation to allow over the counter sale of Ivermectin. We’ll see how that goes.
But the FLCCC (Frontline Covid Critical Care) Alliance can put you in touch with docs in your local area who will dispense both IVM and Hydroxychloroquine. HCQ is less than $1 a pill (IVM is more) but the good news there is that HCQ is actually supposed to be better for the omicron variant (This is on the FLCCC website and they were early advocates and frontline docs using and seeing success with IVM early on.) Having said that, we have a friend in his mid 80s who just got omicron and used IVM with great success. His symptoms were of a moderate cold.
Seventy-three-year-old retired nurse here. looked at the covid lethality rate in the beginning of the scamdemic then delved into reverse transcription and the effects of injecting a substance (notice I didn't say vaccine) that would force the cells to produce a spike protein that was identical to that on the virus and did some conjecture and decided that I'd take my chances with the virus over the Fauci vouched for cure (99% effectuve, remember that?).
The odds were better without the magic vaccine. Less things to go wrong. Turns out I was correct.
Love hearing about this. You see where the CDC and others are attacking Ivermectin big time. Research is a blessing as much as grabbing a bullhorn and going to a street corner to yell, REPENT in hopes someone takes notice.
AB has a mental block about IVM for some reason. But even Dr. John Campbell, who has been the respectable voice of the medical establishment since March 2020, has come around from the sheer weight of evidence and is starting to question (obliquely) why IVM is being suppressed.
Here he is summarizing the latest peer-reviewed study of prophylactic IVM use in Brazil and India (N=223,128!). 70% reduction in Covid death rates.
The Emergency Use Authorization(EAU) afforded to the killer shots stipulates that "there can be no other treatments available." This is why no other treatments are/were allowed in the US. The medical establishment was then paid $35K for every ventilator use. Our whole response has been criminal and evil.
I don't think a lot of people know this. The suppression of early intervention and treatment was always part of the plan to push the toxic jab since the EUA wouldn't be granted otherwise. Just one of the many crimes against humanity we've witnessed in the past two years.
Hospitals/Military bases/Express Scripts use generic drugs, which are lesser quality in the main ingriedent. That piece of info came from my Pharmacist of 30+ yrs. I'd take his word over a sales rep anyday. I use Synthroid, the generic doesn't work as well, sores in mouth, hair loss, muscle pain increase. My friend was nearly bald as without her knowledge they switched her name brand for Generic, her's was much stronger as she had had Thyroid Cancer. Plus why should I pay higher prices for what I have at home.
At least NINE House Democrats test positive for COVID after party held maskless retreat in Philadelphia - NewsBreak
A series of House Democrats have reported testing positive for the coronavirus after attending a party retreat in Philadelphia where President Joe Biden spoke – with seven lawmakers who attended the event revealing their positive results. Another pair of lawmakers who didn't go also reported testing positive Friday
I fell for this the first month, but then I heard the truth about masks and that was that. I need to do research into what else we’ve been lied about. I certainly don’t trust doctors or politicians one whit at this point.
Thank you. I understand totally. I was so scared and asleep.. Lol. I made my husband take his vacation the week it was first announced here in the US. Crazy... I WAS!!! NO LONGER!
Haha! That first day when they announced an imminent lockdown, I decided to never leave my condo again. But two hours later I realized I had to take the garbage out at least once every 10 days, so why not go out every day? I’m now working on not being afraid of these evil plans for a totalitarian world.
Same but 4 who died of illnesses they did NOT have previously!! My childrens father in late Oct. Multiple cancers. Couldn't even diagnose what type. Said rare and unusual. Also many accidents.. Sorens everyday and life star( helicopter). So sad and angering.
Those who did had Cormidities that would have killed them to begin with. Hub's daughter is healthy, 3 jabbed, her bouts are like bad Bronchitis attacks. Besides being sqeamish lost work is her big fear as a single 40 yr old female, in a male dominate field. IT, but she works hard. Supports herself totally now, first 4 yrs were rocky. But Trump was President when her business took off.
Wait a minute--70 lbs from your peak wgt. of 204? That puts you at 134 lbs. at 5'8" tall--you'd be looking akin to a starving concentration camp prisoner...!
Correct!! Love your honesty.. It was only recently I put on another 7 lbs. I was stressed out at losing my dad. Long story. Before Covid. I am at 141lbs now. I want to be about 148 to 150. I felt most myself at that weight.
If you are trying to order IVM from India Mart, use Wise to transfer money. I've used it multiple times with no issues. You can provide your credit card, debit card or do a wire transfer to pay. It's like PayPal or Western Union but better and with way cheaper fees.
I lost 40 lbs . 188 lbs on July 4, 2020 and 145 lbs on May 1 2021 . Not vaxxed. Covid19 infection in August and treated with hydroxychloroquine.... I was tired and feverish for 10 days .. and felt like a million bucks on day 11 !
I also felt like a million bucks after my mild bout with covid, which I ascribe to starting NAC supplements. One thing from my covid protocol that I will continue forever!
did you know amazon blocked sale of NAC last year!!! very underhanded. been buying there for 6 yrs. really makes you see the dark side, blocking things that work like IVM
Very interesting reply! A few months back I switched to a new vitamin D3 that has K2 included. I hope it helps. Mind you, I'm not complaining about "clocking in" at 43 but I wanted to be north of 50. UV-B rays should be returning to our skies (I live on the 41rst latitude) so I've got that working for me too! I never use sun screen lotion.
I go the D3 route, plenty of sun, but not for Celtic pale skin, that burns in 15 minutes. Third degree burns are no fun. The K2 complex is much stronger that what is in a multi vitamin.
@OmahaJoe (and others): Be very careful with D and K. You can OD on them. They are fat soluble meaning they stick around unlike B, C and others which will eliminate excess through urine. The fat soluble vitamins are A, D, E, and K.
I was told the same but it is almost impossible to OD on Vitamin D3/K2. The research is out there. People have taken extremely high doses without issues. That said, the absolute best way to get D3 is from the sun between 10-2 PM. Have lunch outside, with as little clothing as you can get away with. Darker skin - stay out longer in order to absorb enough D. Light skinned people - don't need to stay out as long to get enough. Download the D Minder app and it will tell you exactly when and what to do depending on your longitude and skin color. D3 is the queen bee when it comes to vital nutrients.
Taking high doses of vitamin D for extended periods can be very bad for someone. Do some research for yourself on correct, optimal dosages... There's too little and there's too much. Find the happy spot, just enough.
Don’t be afraid of D3/K2 regimens. This combo has been shown to REVERSE artherosclerosis/calcification of the cardiopulmonary system, with all the health advantages that go with it. Include magnesium supplements too. We don’t need calcium supplementation, by the way.
I used to have palpitations, that went away soon after I started D3K2. It was wonderful. There are other benefits too.
One hurdle we need to get over, is most of the health advice we grew up with in the 60s and 70s has turned out to be incredibly wrong and unhealthy. Opening our eyes and shedding those learned biases is important.
Fat is bad. (No it’s not)
Eat lots of grains and pasta (recipe for diabetes)
Thins your blood too, I use the K2 Complex for that. Earl Mendel's Vitamin Bible maybe dated now, but I raised my boys on it. We rarely saw a doc, unless they needed stiches.
My husband and I have been taking vitamin D for years on the advice of our doctor. We added K2 on the past six months and my husband’s D went from 32 to 53. Waiting to hear how my level is. BTW, neither of us is on blood thinners, so the K2 is ok.
I've been taking 1000 iu D for years. Then learned should take more in the winter months, then learned about K2. I added K2 in 2021, initially by finding a combo pill (Vitamin Shoppe) with 5000 iu D and 100 mcg K2. Then I read somewhere you should not take them both at the same time. (I also read that 5,000 iu D is on the high end and one should not take more...? Yet some people take a lot more.) So I mix it up, taking them separately at different times of the day, some days I take 4000 iu of D, sometimes I take the combo pill.
It’s recommended that one has a test to check on vitamin D levels. Fauci was taking 8,000-9,000 IU daily. Go figure. It depends on your capacity to absorb it.
Very right in that we now have all we need to know regarding health considering my doctors followed their board protocols(no Ivermectin or HCQ) rather than practice medicine.
Congrats, OmahaJoe! You did what the public health bozos should have been advising: No matter where you are, improve your own health.
The researchers found that, compared with COVID-19 patients who consistently met exercise guidelines, those who were consistently inactive were at 2.26 times the risk of hospitalization, 1.73 times the risk of ICU admission, and 2.49 times the risk of death from their infections.
Thank you very much. I wish I could send an email to myself back in time. The subject part of the email would read "Exercise now dummy! Don't get fat! Stop eating bread!".
Not to insult our host but here are two Doctors who do not follow authorities and have saved many thousands of lives. They have put themselves out there to save many putting their own lives in danger.
I like my patients to have their vitamin D levels between 60-80. You are doing great! Maybe add 500mg of NAC and 2-3000mg of VitC/day otherwise you have a good routine going!
A few years ago (long before COVID), one of my docs saw my D3 level at 76 and told me to back off the supplement a bit!!! I've been keeping it around there for years, thanks entirely to what I learned from Dr. Mercola.
I'm trying to find something mocking masks and the Wuhan Flu but Duck Duck Go must be blocking everything. All I get are whiny snowflake crap like "We're all in this Together".
“Not good enough” — well, I’d wager that your blood glucose, cholesterol and natural Vitamin D levels have improved tremendously. Keep it up and give yourself a pat on the back!!
I've never been healthier than I am now thanks to their lockdown & vaxx-forcing. I haven't masked or gotten the jab. I have upped all my supplements and exercise.
Good for you!! Same here. I finally got to have time to myself and establish new habits. As challenging as they last 2 yrs have been, there's LOTS of silver linings like this. Stay well!
Same to you. I wish I could say I also escaped the mental torture unscathed... but sadly I don't believe that's possible to anyone who knows what's going on. But we soldier on, eh? And hey - at least we live in interesting times!
I believe (see disclaimer below) that if you are suffering from obesity, you should supplement with about 100 to 150 IU per kilogram bodyweight per day. So 100 kg (220 lb) means 10,000 to 15,000 IU/day. The latter is 0.375 mg a day, which is a gram every 7.3 years. Please see the table towards the end of https://nutritionmatters.substack.com/p/calcifediol-to-boost-25-hydroxyvitamin. The amount per kg for people not suffering from obesity is 70 to 100 IU/day, based on Afshar et al. 2020: https://vitamindstopscovid.info/01-supp/#2020-Afshar . For those suffering from obesity, a factor of 1.5 times this is needed, according to my analysis of Ekwaru et al. 2014: https://vitamindstopscovid.info/01-supp/a-ratios/ . The table, from (retired) Professor of Medicine Sunil Wimalwansa in New Jersey (CV: https://www.ama-assn.org/system/files/2019-03/bio-sketch-sunil-wimalawansa_0.pdf ) is based on these two ranges of quantities, with a third range with a 2.0 multiplier which he judges is appropriate for those suffering from morbid obesity. Obesity causes many problems with health in general and especially COVID-19: https://aminotheory.com/cv19/obesity/ . It also lowers circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D because the excess fat cells absorb it and do not return much of it to the bloodstream. Obesity is in part an inflammatory condition, which causes and in part is caused by low 25-hydroxyvitamin D. Obesity involves ectopic adipocytes (fat cells where they do not belong) in the alveolar (air sac) tissue of the lungs. There, they emit pro-inflammatory cytokines and can be infected by SARS-CoV-2.
It takes several months to attain the desired 25-hydroxyvitamin D level with these long-term vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) supplemental intakes. For those who are ill and have not been adequately supplementing vitamin D3 for months, there is an urgent need to boost there 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels. Bolus (large, single dose, such as 10 mg 400,000 IU, for 70 kg bodyweight without obesity) vitamin D3 can do this in (very approximately) 4 days.
The best approach - which can make the difference between harm / rapid recovery and life / death - is to boost the circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in about 4 hours with a single oral dose of calcifediol, which is the pharma name for 25-hydroxyvitamin D. This involves (roughly, it is not at all critical) 0.014 mg calcifediol per kg bodyweight, as shown in the table (also from Prof. Wimalawansa) in the FLCCC's MATH+ hospital treatment protcol.
I am 69 kg and take a 1.25mg 50,000 IU vitamin D3 capsule every week. It is best not to space intakes out by more than a week: https://asbmr.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/jbm4.10606 . I guess my 25-hydroxyvitamin D level is at least 50 ng/mL and maybe 100 ng/mL. This is good enough for me - I don't feel the need to test it. There is very little vitamin D3 in food or multiivitamins. It can be made from UV-B skin exposure but this is not always avaiable, and the UV-B inevitably causes DNA damage and so raises the risk of skin cancer. (Ther may well be other benefits from sunlight and UV-B skin exposure, but it is not a good way to get sufficient vitamin D3 on a long-term basis.)
The MDs and researchers I collaborate with regarding raising awareness of vitamin D and the immnue system believe that magnesium is also a very common deficiency. I think that boron is another neglected nutrient, the deficiency of which makes inflammatory disorders worse. See the research articles cited at: https://aminotheory.com/cv19/#08-boron .
I have no medical qualifications or experience. Please read the research articles I cite in the above pages and at https://vitamindstopscovid.info/05-mds/ to help you and/or your healthcare professional make well informed decisions regarding nutrition and health.
Controversial statement but skin cancer is mostly from sunscreen. Many holistic doctors will agree. Australia has the highest skin cancer rate and they also wear the most sunscreen.
Can you find a non salicylic form of GERD supplement, I want off Nexium, not found a way to get off, Barrett's Esophagus pre-cancers doom me to taking it. And even OTC isn't cheap, nor healthy. None of the stuff I've tried works. Mag Citrate at roughly half your Cal Citrate not Oxide which is not absorbed well, and look at Selenium https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-1003/selenium vs Melatonin. Stronium Citrate at half or roughly what you use as non rock form Calcium for your bones. Biotin, Folic Acid are trace and are needed, our preserving and growing methods rob soil of minerials, Michigan soil is very Selinuim and Thiamine poor.
High carb diet heavy in refined flour and sugar can be the problem. Look up Dr. Ken Berry on any platform and many others teaching ketogenic way of eating.
You may be interested to note that your levels of vitamin d, despite hefty dosing via supplementation, is because the body doesnt process vitamin d supplements in the same way that it produces it via the sun exposure. Your cholesterol levels will also dictate how much vitamin d you generate. As well as your place of location. D Minder app can be helpful in telling you when you window for making D is, based on your location and time of year. In case your interested. 😉🤗
Using D-Minder. Love it. I've turned friends on to using it. I live on the California Central Coast and UVI levels are great here year round. We have UVI 8 today.
Great job. Keep going...it'll just get better and better. I made the change in July 2020...went Paleo diet, low carb, no sugar or seed oil. Also started supplementing Vit D, C, Zinc/Quercitin. Lost 50 lbs at age 50 and no problem keeping it off. Feel fantastic, look 15 years younger and immune system is apparently primed cuz I'm never sick. Big lesson in life...take charge of your own health. And that's 80%+ what you eat.
Glad to hear these success stories. Simple fact...unless you have an unusual health condition reducing carbs will cause you to burn fat. It's that simple.
You have become awakened to our more serious societal problems such as "we are what we eat" and the importance of the immune system and the massive number of "drugs" inherently destroying our immune system. 15 minutes of body-sunshine every day is another secret the government enjoys hiding. Those UV blockers alone are cancer causing slow death gifts from the age of population reduction. Stay with the program. Doctors are carriers of the slow death disease. Big Pharma rewards them regularly for prescribing experiment drugs approved by their payoffs to the PHS system.
So, if I had covid, unjabbed, and recovered and am healthy I’m still worse off?! Am I at least protected from the next (possibly bad because of the vax) variant?
In what way? Do you just mean that the unjabbed will be healthier overall? It's on my radar to create a walking blood bank registry of friends and family who didn't get the jab and who are compatible donors/recipients by blood type in case any of us needs blood, we can get unjabbed people we know to donate, rather than getting spike proteins and mRNA possibly from a jabbed person's blood.
I was a church goer until the Church caved on WuFlu; they tolerated their closure while the govt kept liquor stores and strip clubs open. Now it is just G-d and us.
Heard that our bishop told our priests to not write religious exemption letters for parishioners to give to their employers who had vax mandates. Bishop was very pro vax brainwashed, not to mention willfully ignorant of any valid religious objections. That really disappointed me that he wouldn't support his parishioners when we support the diocese. So I cut off donations to the diocese.
Haha. I wonder if we go to the same diocese...maybe church! :-) By the way, I also say "good on you" -- I picked it up from an instructor 25 years ago who was former air Navy guy. Not many people I know say that. I wonder if I know you. :-) Have a good day!
I did the same thing. I also heard many parishioners wanted forced vaccinations. I think the priest where I go became sympathetic to them on hearing their distress. It’s just plain wrong.
Listening to a major radio show last May... Three young pregnant women called in in a row to report they all miscarried a week after vax. The devastation caused by all thing Pharma will be with us forever.
The risk/reward calculation for me said no vax. Didn't feel I was in a risk category, and no idea what's in the substance they wanted me to inject repeatedly. And then I got covid and recovered, after which point it was just never going to happen.
Every American should have had the right to decide for themselves whether they wanted the fake vaccine. The mandate that forced them to choose between their livelihood and getting the shot was unconstitutional and cruel. Good for you for taking time to make your decision.
I love that. "go long on decisions" -- property, relationships, and other major life choices. Pray, plan, prepare, resist. I love it. I proceed with caution more and more often as I get older.
God's will, not mine be done. As I get older, I also realize that I prefer to be around people who keep God first place. The wealth of the ungodly will eventually make it's way into the hands of the righteous, for whom it was intended.
Frankly, I see the masses falling for this all again in the fall. The media will slowly start ramping up the fear porn, and all the politicians will fall in line lock step with masking and pushing vaccines. Bourla is already out there saying a fourth booster is coming....mind you for a variant that no longer exists and a shot that never protected anyone in the first place but actually made things worse. But people are stupid and blindly believe whatever the boob tube tells them. I would hope that an awakening is happening, but when I go to the grocery store and still see everyone masked up, I'm completely disheartened.
I’m with you…you just KNOW they’ve got a new “anothercon” coming, maybe even a NEW disease/threat. And the sheeple will run for the shot once again. I cannot believe all the younger people 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, still masked up…mass formation psychosis hard at work!
“Stealth” omicron. It just had to have a sinister sounding adjective. In reality, it’s an Omi variant, that is more transmissible, allegedly.
For those of us not living in fear, and PUREBLOOD, getting Omi is essential, for natural immunity. It is truly mild for typical healthy people. It was a 2-3 day event for me, no fever, ticklish throat, a little malaise and some minor congestion, and that’s it. My prep for Covid has been Zelenko protocol, plus a broad multi-vitamin supplement, k2, magnesium, potassium and NAC. This for a late 50s dude carrying a few extra pounds around.
The fear porn promoted by all the media, politicians, bureaucrats, medical system and pro-vax wingnuts, has changed our society and relationships forever. The result? People and groups that used to preach tolerance of everything, have turned into mean-spirited, vengeful monsters.
I wonder if there is truly some additive in the jabs, that affects that part of the brain, the personality changes are very noticeable
Thank much Mabel. Iron sharpening iron. I needed that verse today!!!!!!!
We know we will not be completely “out” of the fire and might even die (cf Bonhoeffer), but in current vernacular “it’s all good” . Why? Not because of fatalism, or some sort of Voltarian “best of all possible worlds” type unreasonable optimism but because God is in charge! I’m thinking Elijah and Daniel and friends and the disciples being crucified. No matter what happens, God is good.
In my town in Connecticut, which was 95% masked (with no mask mandate) just a few weeks ago, most people aren't masked anymore. They took the masks off of the kids (which was a fight but of course no increase in "cases") and then the adults followed suit. My husband thinks we should move to a red state just in case and he's probably right, but it makes me sad being from New England just how many sheep there are up here.
The transplants are there because of his policies...his re-election is all but guaranteed unless he runs for President which I truly hope he does.... speaking as a Canadian...
I'm in Vermont and could have written this because it is exactly the same here. We're also considering moving to a red state, something my former liberal self would never have believed two years ago. Do we trade the quality of life for freedom? Or is moving to a red state just buying us a couple years before all of the west descends into full digital slavery?
As I've gotten older, it has been my habit to go long on decisions. Owning property, relationships and other major life choices. Not taking these shots has been maybe the best from an impact / recovery standpoint. You can always get out of a bad house deal but there is no getting out of these shots once taken. Sadly, many people will find this out the hard way. Pray, plan, prepare, RESIST.
Feel the same way, however, I'm 59 and fat, so because I didn't take the vax route I felt that I needed an alternative plan. I assumed that inaction was too risky. For me it was vitamin D sufficiency (I take 7500 IU per day and my blood test shows that I'm "only" 43 ng/ml). I also take quercetin + zinc a few times a week, and during the Covid Wars I took 12 mg of ivermectin every 4 days. I have lost 20 lbs in the past year (not good enough) and I walk 10 miles a week. The silver lining in this bio war against the people is that some have learned to improve/augment their own immune system, and also to know that most doctors are blind and obedient followers of authority, no matter how silly and corrupt that authority may be.
Good for you!! I do the same, except Ivermectin. Can't seem to get it with CC. I do not have Pay Pal. Nor would I. Not giving checks ahead with my info to other countries. Anyways.. I was overweight. 204 at 5'8. I got a 5 month old pup and started training( lots of walking). Lost 70 lbs in one year. Only change in diet was much less sugar and eating in 8 hr window. Nothing after 6 pm. You would be amazed at how easy it is to get used to. I used to stay up til all hours and eat mindlessly.. Before. One thing this nightmare has taught me is how to research. I admit I bought into this the first month. Until... I realized there were NO BIOHAZARD BINS AND BIG BOX STORES COULD STAY OPEN!! That got me started, as well as the whole mask nonsense!! What I have learned is we have all been lied to our whole lives. Everything.. Not just Covid.
No kidding we have been lied to for decades starting with Ancel Keys' fake, pro-sugar lobby takedown of 'fats' leading to a society built on sugar. Hell, since all vaccines have come out after herd immunity has been reached(yes, Smallpox) I question everything.
I always think back to my mother who was a nurse purposely putting me in a group of kids with red spots(chix pox)...
And how about sunscreen..... blocks vitamin D, it's full of chemical toxins and our skin is the largest organ of our body. Destroys ocean eco systems. Rickets outbreaks have been happening in small children as they are lathered in sunscreen, getting no nourishing sun on their skin. I honestly think sunscreen promotion is part of a plan to destroy human health for profit. Enjoy the sun, seek shade, wear protective clothing and seek natural sunscreen like coconut oil. Yes, it works and has been used for millennia
Finally, someone who agrees with me about sunscreen. I do not think they are intentionally out to destroy human health, but they are definitely out for profit.
I started wondering about sunscreen when we started going to Greece every year and the only people slathering it all over their kids were the tourists. You can literally spot the North Americans by the SPF factor on their bottles, lol
Yes agreed. Profit is the main driver. Find (or create) a problem and offer a profitable(and perpetual) solution. Seeking profit might lead one to engage in sinister activity to maintain market hold. "The sun is bad for you" narrative has convinced many to be deprived of vital, life essential vitamin D
OMG you strike hard at the biggest profit in the drug and FDA cult. I got so in love with the sun we found our own private beach where textiles are cancer causing (my excuse). How about Obama's 10 percent tax on tanning beds. The High Pressure system is fantastic. Nothing kills viruses faster than UV. The UVC lights are great for the air conditioning system. Nothing survives.
Didn't Trump get excoriated for his comments on UV light?
100%
...and ironically, vit D is very important in the prevention of cancers, some of which The Powers That Be claim are caused by the sun.
bingo
Agreed, stopped using sunscreen years ago. Just look at a chart of US skin cancer deaths this past century. Deaths up dramatically with the intro of sunscreen.
I figured that out years ago, live in Australia, go to the beach and have never used sunscreen. You always tan very gradually. I do so unintentionally in daffleled sun. Have never peeled. (Did once when I was very young and learnt my lesson). I am glad I am not on any meds. I reckoned correct diet etc would illuminate any “need” for that.
Wow thank you for this sunscreen insight! I always let my kids get a little sun first. Myself as well. Then I put it on. Skin cancer has been found in my family. Maybe I need an even Less sunscreen strategy. Not surprised.
A LOT of science research produces nothing. As in nothing repeatable despite claims of significance. Read em and weep. This starts with bad NIH and granting agency decision sending big $$ to the most sensationalized ideas/projects. What do you get in return? Even more sensationalized associations which are not real but they do deliver big grants and headlines.

I read some time ago that conventional sun screens would reduce the levels of skin cancer - except for melanoma. Higher levels of sun exposure reportedly showed an inverse relationship to melanoma. In other words, sunscreens helped prevent the largely harmless skin cancers while getting a fair amount of sun decreases the rate or melanomas. (Sorry, no references on this - but there is probably more information on line about this relationship).
Conventional sunscreens have pretty awful ingredients...

You are so right about the faulty research done by Keys regarding fat in our diets. And then the “low-fat heart healthy” diet became a religion. It got to the point that anyone who disagreed with the hypothesis about the heart healthy low-fat diet couldn’t get grant funding and/or were shunned by colleagues. Sound familiar with “climate change” and with covid?
A fascinating book on how all of this actually happened and how it has negatively affected our society is “The Big Fat Surprise” by Nina Teicholz. (Good fats actually belong in our diets. Hooray!) It’s an easy read and is so interesting - not to mention helpful for healthy eating.
Along with so called heart healthy low fat diets and sunscreen, don't forget to add fluoridated water and artificial sweeteners to the list
"...couldn’t get grant funding and/or were shunned by colleagues." Sigh. Government never has new ideas; guess what Tony FauXi controls? $50B in research funding and we don't have to guess who gets cash and who doesn't. Pretty frightening, really. BUT! That is why we make the investment into people like Alex - we can learn far more from each other, right!? I love these Substacks because we don't need other sources for the most part. Thanks for the mention of that book. My oldest just finished her BioMed degree awaiting med school and she has helped our whole family readjust our diets back to fat based(tastes way gooder, too :-D).
Made me smile. You have that right!
Two points about good fats in our diet -
1. Our pcp in MA (from which we escaped over a year ago back to my home state of Florida) was Harvard medical and at MASS General and was the one who recommended the book. He said he knew that’s the way I grew up diet wise (eggs/bacon for breakfast and meat, 2 veggies and a salad for dinner - low carbs ) and said he was furious with himself as he always reads all the studies but incorrectly assumed the low-fat heart healthy diet was “settled science.” Well, surprise, surprise.
2. The other story is about my brother-in-law who has his doctorate in animal physiology and was a prof at Texas A&M and then worked in genetics for a large cattle ranch in Oklahoma. His doc wanted him to lose weight and lower his cholesterol by going on a low fat diet. He made a bet with his doc he could do both by losing the carbs and increasing his good fat. Bingo. He won the bet.
Common sense and moderation solve a lot of problems. Unfortunately, both seem to be in short supply.
Gary Taubes has written several really great books on this subject as well.
Exactly! I learned about the Ancel Keys sham about 20 years ago, and I think what I learned from that made it natural for me to be an instant skeptic when the Covid business began.
Yes!!!! The sugar lobby and everyone fell for it!! All that yucky low fat food with three times the sugar added to make it tasty, fat is flavour folks!!
Awesome story. Well done. The amount of lying has definitely increased. Although shooting JFK and getting away with it is some kind of high water mark.
Until I read Douglass’s, “JFK, the Unspeakable” I would have thought you were a conspiracy nut. I read it in 2020 early in the pandemic. The manipulations and the cover-ups and censoring and changing official records of the Warren Commission was rhyming much too close for comfort with the media/state response to Covid. Nothing has changed in 50 years, except the deep state is now out in the open flaunting their misdeeds and rubbing our noses in them. Diabolical narcissists, the lot of them.
Ever hear Ann Barnhardt's video on diabolical narcissism? I can't quite go all the way with her and some people might be put off a bit with her religious orientation, but WOW she hits the nail on the head over and over.
Hi Candis, no, I have never watched her video on diabolical narcissism, but I do read her blog regularly. It's where I learned the term "diabolical narcissist," and her aphorism that "anyone who is crazy enough to run for a national office is automatically disqualified for that office." She's over-the-top, an Ann Coulter on steroids (hmmm...two fearless women named Ann), but as you say, "she hits the nail on the head over and over."
Most disturbing book I’ve ever picked up
Wow…I had the same reaction.
Yeah, they learned how to work with and manipulate massive, indirect collective trauma.
That was just a little reminder. One could argue taking out Nicolas and Wilhelm within a week would have to be the high water mark.
You do realize that obama changed the weight requirements for what Obese is? Wanting to sell weight loss surgery. Having Gastropresis what I eat takes longer to digest. I use smaller plates, bowls, and cups to cut portions. Very accurate about the after 6 pm, we slow down, burn less calories. 2 pieces of news went through yesterday, the Bentonville Wal-mart warehouse caught fire, and 1 in Tiawan on the same day. Less Chinese crap. BUTCHERED HEALTHCARE by ROBERT YOHO, is a must read. Helps you understand better the incestous relationship of Pharma/government. $5, on kindle. Then you have FJB EO TURNING OUR MONEY INTO DIGITAL CURRENCY. QR'S FOR SHOPPING. AND ANY HACKER, OR GOVERNMENT CAN SUCK YOUR MONEY DRY.
Also.. Just gotcRFK's book. I am starting today. That will definitely fill in ALL the gaps. Have you read it?
Lots of footnotes and statistics, but I managed to slog through. Having read it, I'm wondering why Fauci, among others, isn't behind bars.
my thoughts exactly. Brilliant book, but leaves you feeling so bloody helpless. (plus it made me cry)
🎯🎯🎯
“They” have their asses covered for the moment. Useful idiot demoniacs put in public. The highest rung of their father are the Council of Thirteen.
The good news is the ole no honor amongst thieves. They hate one another. Their father that of lies, thieves, and murderers.
All factions fighting tooth and nail for the council positions.
It’s a great read. It will shock and enrage you.
I can only read bits at a time, not because it is hard, but because it is so enraging.
It is excellent but not an easy read
Yes. I bought "The Real Anthony Fauci" on Audible and listened to the whole thing over a period of weeks. It is an amazing book, well written. It could easily be recognized as one of the top books of the 21st century. It documents Fauci's 50-year pattern of suppressing the cheap drugs that easily solve diseases in favor of his expensive pharmaceuticals in which he is vested, and often which have proven to be toxic. It documents his long history of utterly destroying the careers of real doctors and scientists who sought the truth and were willing to put their lives on the line to expose him. It is the story of how to create and perfect a medical / pharmaceutical monopoly that morphs into a tyranny. It will become obvious from reading this book that his lack of a moral compass has resulted in many thousands of unnecessary deaths, and many thousands more ending up with poor health. These include many deaths during medical experiments, particularly on vulnerable children and minorities. The health of Americans over the 50 years of his career, during the time that he has been charge of public health, has drastically declined, and this book shows you how he did it. It is a book that could bring Fauci down and I hope it does. Watching Fauci after the book came out, I think it is having an effect. I don't think he is capable of self-reflection, but I can imagine the horror he is experiencing at the thought of his crimes being found out and made known to the world. I personally think that every person who reads this book, just by knowing the truth, the real truth, moves the needle toward a better world. Knowledge is power.
You have a gift for perfect summation! Wish I could express how I felt reading the book half as well.
Absolutely!! All great points!! I pray it works!
You need to read Robert Yoho's Butchered by Healthcare, Pharma, Government to understand the Mechnism how they do it. He published just before Covid, though he does Podcast on it. It's the GLUE than makes the rest make sense. $4.99 kindle. Lots of links you can look up.
Thank you. I don’t have a kindle. Hopefully I can get a hard copy.
Yes, it is a MUST read along with Covid-19 Global Predators - long read.
I am currently reading that one but only a fifth of the way through. A bit harder for me to understand.
It will curl your hair!
It’s dark. Then it gets darker.
🎯
It's hard to read due to the constant disgust and anger factor...I could only handle it in small bits. So many people should be in prison for what they have done over the years. Another great read to get a full historical perspective on all vaccines is "Dissolving Illusions." Some of the behaviors we have seen in 2022 with regard to vaccines was also done in the late 1800's with the smallpox vaccine development. There have always been scientists pushing a vaccine and censoring and trying to ruin those who dissent with the vaccine. I was amazed to read how many things have not changed.
Got it, got two copies, wanted to give one to my daughter and son in law. They both got the shots, because they thought they are protecting the adults. We continued to live our lives mask free, with hugs and people around. Now they read the documents that came out after the FOIA request and say they don't want to hear or read any more. They understand now, and will not get boosted, but... can't deal with more information. They know Fauci lied. I need to start it, as soon as I am done with what I am reading.
Good to hear. I've got so many books, not sure which to read first.
YES!!! I read it and will never be the same for it! Prepare to have your mind blown.
🎯
I got it, already aware that Fauci was mass a murderer. And I've still been shocked time after time by the sheer duplicitousness of the man. He is unquestionably the most prolific killer in American in history, including Patton, Grant and any of our other great generals. Think I'm exaggerating? Read the book.
Oh I am. Also I was about 18.. During the Aids stuff.. I remember him backpedaling on all his lies. My dad said he was an evil man and he was right.
About Wal-Mart's warehouses...a huge one in Plainfield, IN burned yesterday also. (3-16-22) Totally destroyed. Paraphrasing the fire marshall/captain on site, the warehouse was totally full, packed floor to ceiling. --- Makes you wonder about all the shortages, huh?
Omg 😳. So many lies at all levels. It’s just like supposedly there are like 8-10 container ships being held out to sea that the LA ports aren’t processing, due to transportation shortages? Is this real?
The BMI numbers were always ridiculous, IMO.
It all comes down to the absurd 'one size fits all' philosophy behind federalism. Great for control mechanisms and harvesting the big bucks, disastrous on one level or another for the majority of individuals.
Did NOT know that. Thanks 4 the info.
I thought I was red-pilled but that book was/is the biggest red-pill of my life (except 9/11).
Also the glucose numbers for diabetes and the blood pressure numbers for “high” bloid pressure.
Wrong about Bentonville fire, Hub plays TV to loud, Plainville, Ind.
Fauci killed millions with his HIV/AIDS treatment.
Fauci killed millions with his Covid treatment.

OBESE study

Plainfield, IN.
Some good news is that the New Hampshire legislature has just passed legislation to allow over the counter sale of Ivermectin. We’ll see how that goes.
https://rupreparing.com/news/2022/3/10/new-hampshire-advances-proposal-to-dispense-ivermectin-trialsite-staff
But the FLCCC (Frontline Covid Critical Care) Alliance can put you in touch with docs in your local area who will dispense both IVM and Hydroxychloroquine. HCQ is less than $1 a pill (IVM is more) but the good news there is that HCQ is actually supposed to be better for the omicron variant (This is on the FLCCC website and they were early advocates and frontline docs using and seeing success with IVM early on.) Having said that, we have a friend in his mid 80s who just got omicron and used IVM with great success. His symptoms were of a moderate cold.
Seventy-three-year-old retired nurse here. looked at the covid lethality rate in the beginning of the scamdemic then delved into reverse transcription and the effects of injecting a substance (notice I didn't say vaccine) that would force the cells to produce a spike protein that was identical to that on the virus and did some conjecture and decided that I'd take my chances with the virus over the Fauci vouched for cure (99% effectuve, remember that?).
The odds were better without the magic vaccine. Less things to go wrong. Turns out I was correct.
Love hearing about this. You see where the CDC and others are attacking Ivermectin big time. Research is a blessing as much as grabbing a bullhorn and going to a street corner to yell, REPENT in hopes someone takes notice.
AB has a mental block about IVM for some reason. But even Dr. John Campbell, who has been the respectable voice of the medical establishment since March 2020, has come around from the sheer weight of evidence and is starting to question (obliquely) why IVM is being suppressed.
Here he is summarizing the latest peer-reviewed study of prophylactic IVM use in Brazil and India (N=223,128!). 70% reduction in Covid death rates.
https://youtu.be/Gz4adJXLHgA?t=480
The Emergency Use Authorization(EAU) afforded to the killer shots stipulates that "there can be no other treatments available." This is why no other treatments are/were allowed in the US. The medical establishment was then paid $35K for every ventilator use. Our whole response has been criminal and evil.
I don't think a lot of people know this. The suppression of early intervention and treatment was always part of the plan to push the toxic jab since the EUA wouldn't be granted otherwise. Just one of the many crimes against humanity we've witnessed in the past two years.
This should be “sprayed” everywhere.
And why you can't visit, you might sneak some in.
I snuck IVM into the hospital for my buddy right when he went in.
Hospitals/Military bases/Express Scripts use generic drugs, which are lesser quality in the main ingriedent. That piece of info came from my Pharmacist of 30+ yrs. I'd take his word over a sales rep anyday. I use Synthroid, the generic doesn't work as well, sores in mouth, hair loss, muscle pain increase. My friend was nearly bald as without her knowledge they switched her name brand for Generic, her's was much stronger as she had had Thyroid Cancer. Plus why should I pay higher prices for what I have at home.
At least NINE House Democrats test positive for COVID after party held maskless retreat in Philadelphia - NewsBreak
A series of House Democrats have reported testing positive for the coronavirus after attending a party retreat in Philadelphia where President Joe Biden spoke – with seven lawmakers who attended the event revealing their positive results. Another pair of lawmakers who didn't go also reported testing positive Friday

I am the same way regarding research. A rude awakening no doubt.
On yes.
I fell for this the first month, but then I heard the truth about masks and that was that. I need to do research into what else we’ve been lied about. I certainly don’t trust doctors or politicians one whit at this point.
Congratulations on getting healthy!
Thank you. I understand totally. I was so scared and asleep.. Lol. I made my husband take his vacation the week it was first announced here in the US. Crazy... I WAS!!! NO LONGER!
Haha! That first day when they announced an imminent lockdown, I decided to never leave my condo again. But two hours later I realized I had to take the garbage out at least once every 10 days, so why not go out every day? I’m now working on not being afraid of these evil plans for a totalitarian world.
Wow. That pup was a gift from God.
Her name is Angel. You are correct. She is a Gift from God. My Everything!!
Made my day to read your response. I know how dogs help us....
You are a dolll, My new Friend!! Have a Great Weekend! If you have PUPS, Hug them for me!!😍🙏
Ya plus no body bags piling up and I still do not know a single person in my life who actually died of it and I’m sixty five and know a lot of people.
Same but 4 who died of illnesses they did NOT have previously!! My childrens father in late Oct. Multiple cancers. Couldn't even diagnose what type. Said rare and unusual. Also many accidents.. Sorens everyday and life star( helicopter). So sad and angering.
Those who did had Cormidities that would have killed them to begin with. Hub's daughter is healthy, 3 jabbed, her bouts are like bad Bronchitis attacks. Besides being sqeamish lost work is her big fear as a single 40 yr old female, in a male dominate field. IT, but she works hard. Supports herself totally now, first 4 yrs were rocky. But Trump was President when her business took off.
Sorry for your losses mr. Covid
Ummmm, kind of that. That the vaxxed are dying I guess.
Just feel you should know this is American docs and American pharmacies (i got mine from Nashville)….all via E-Mail and pharmacy called next day.
I’m kind of surprised people still don’t know about this org that want medicine.

I do know. I am currently working with my free doctor. Just waiting til they open to see if they will fill without codes. Thank you!😊
I have ordered ivermectin twice from alldaychemist in India. Used an e-check.
Wait a minute--70 lbs from your peak wgt. of 204? That puts you at 134 lbs. at 5'8" tall--you'd be looking akin to a starving concentration camp prisoner...!
Correct!! Love your honesty.. It was only recently I put on another 7 lbs. I was stressed out at losing my dad. Long story. Before Covid. I am at 141lbs now. I want to be about 148 to 150. I felt most myself at that weight.
If you are trying to order IVM from India Mart, use Wise to transfer money. I've used it multiple times with no issues. You can provide your credit card, debit card or do a wire transfer to pay. It's like PayPal or Western Union but better and with way cheaper fees.
The question is why would that be, exactly? The whole thing is utterly despicable, borderline criminal on his part.
Thank you James!
Yup. This I knew..Thank you.
I lost 40 lbs . 188 lbs on July 4, 2020 and 145 lbs on May 1 2021 . Not vaxxed. Covid19 infection in August and treated with hydroxychloroquine.... I was tired and feverish for 10 days .. and felt like a million bucks on day 11 !
I also felt like a million bucks after my mild bout with covid, which I ascribe to starting NAC supplements. One thing from my covid protocol that I will continue forever!
did you know amazon blocked sale of NAC last year!!! very underhanded. been buying there for 6 yrs. really makes you see the dark side, blocking things that work like IVM
I found it at The Vitamin Shoppe. Online only.
Swanson still carries NAC along with many other supplements at prices that beat Scamazon.
Doesn't surprise me at all. I buy all my supplements in bulk from Pure Bulk. Cheaper and the highest quality you can get!
Congratulations!
look into adding vitamin K2 to help boost your D levels.
Very interesting reply! A few months back I switched to a new vitamin D3 that has K2 included. I hope it helps. Mind you, I'm not complaining about "clocking in" at 43 but I wanted to be north of 50. UV-B rays should be returning to our skies (I live on the 41rst latitude) so I've got that working for me too! I never use sun screen lotion.
It took me 1 year of 10,000 IU of Vitamin D3 daily to go from a level of 34 to 67. I am also taking Vitamin K-2 with it.
I go the D3 route, plenty of sun, but not for Celtic pale skin, that burns in 15 minutes. Third degree burns are no fun. The K2 complex is much stronger that what is in a multi vitamin.
@OmahaJoe (and others): Be very careful with D and K. You can OD on them. They are fat soluble meaning they stick around unlike B, C and others which will eliminate excess through urine. The fat soluble vitamins are A, D, E, and K.
I was told the same but it is almost impossible to OD on Vitamin D3/K2. The research is out there. People have taken extremely high doses without issues. That said, the absolute best way to get D3 is from the sun between 10-2 PM. Have lunch outside, with as little clothing as you can get away with. Darker skin - stay out longer in order to absorb enough D. Light skinned people - don't need to stay out as long to get enough. Download the D Minder app and it will tell you exactly when and what to do depending on your longitude and skin color. D3 is the queen bee when it comes to vital nutrients.
Taking high doses of vitamin D for extended periods can be very bad for someone. Do some research for yourself on correct, optimal dosages... There's too little and there's too much. Find the happy spot, just enough.
Unless you have a history of melanoma, like I do.
Don’t be afraid of D3/K2 regimens. This combo has been shown to REVERSE artherosclerosis/calcification of the cardiopulmonary system, with all the health advantages that go with it. Include magnesium supplements too. We don’t need calcium supplementation, by the way.
I used to have palpitations, that went away soon after I started D3K2. It was wonderful. There are other benefits too.
One hurdle we need to get over, is most of the health advice we grew up with in the 60s and 70s has turned out to be incredibly wrong and unhealthy. Opening our eyes and shedding those learned biases is important.
Fat is bad. (No it’s not)
Eat lots of grains and pasta (recipe for diabetes)
You need calcium supplements (see above)
Everything within reason. Moderation, in food and politics, is key.
My daughter has severe allergies and her allergist wants her D level to be between 40 & 60.
Thins your blood too, I use the K2 Complex for that. Earl Mendel's Vitamin Bible maybe dated now, but I raised my boys on it. We rarely saw a doc, unless they needed stiches.
👍 Good job, Momma !
There's an updated version - I just bought it a couple of months ago!
My husband and I have been taking vitamin D for years on the advice of our doctor. We added K2 on the past six months and my husband’s D went from 32 to 53. Waiting to hear how my level is. BTW, neither of us is on blood thinners, so the K2 is ok.
K1 is the problem with blood thinners, not K2.
Exactly. I just reaized thatcafter 6 months of uping my Vit D3
Here's a great study on vitamin D and covid and tells you exactly what you need to know about dosage:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8541492/
I've been taking 1000 iu D for years. Then learned should take more in the winter months, then learned about K2. I added K2 in 2021, initially by finding a combo pill (Vitamin Shoppe) with 5000 iu D and 100 mcg K2. Then I read somewhere you should not take them both at the same time. (I also read that 5,000 iu D is on the high end and one should not take more...? Yet some people take a lot more.) So I mix it up, taking them separately at different times of the day, some days I take 4000 iu of D, sometimes I take the combo pill.
It’s recommended that one has a test to check on vitamin D levels. Fauci was taking 8,000-9,000 IU daily. Go figure. It depends on your capacity to absorb it.
Very right in that we now have all we need to know regarding health considering my doctors followed their board protocols(no Ivermectin or HCQ) rather than practice medicine.
Many have become aware of their doctor’s strength to STAND UP to TPTB.
Or their weakness to NOT STAND UP against TPTB
Congrats, OmahaJoe! You did what the public health bozos should have been advising: No matter where you are, improve your own health.
The researchers found that, compared with COVID-19 patients who consistently met exercise guidelines, those who were consistently inactive were at 2.26 times the risk of hospitalization, 1.73 times the risk of ICU admission, and 2.49 times the risk of death from their infections.
Get after it Joe! Congrats on the progress
Thank you very much. I wish I could send an email to myself back in time. The subject part of the email would read "Exercise now dummy! Don't get fat! Stop eating bread!".
Not to insult our host but here are two Doctors who do not follow authorities and have saved many thousands of lives. They have put themselves out there to save many putting their own lives in danger.

I like my patients to have their vitamin D levels between 60-80. You are doing great! Maybe add 500mg of NAC and 2-3000mg of VitC/day otherwise you have a good routine going!
A few years ago (long before COVID), one of my docs saw my D3 level at 76 and told me to back off the supplement a bit!!! I've been keeping it around there for years, thanks entirely to what I learned from Dr. Mercola.
During the "Covid Wars" -- nice one. I am going to steal that shamelessly (but give u credit)
Someone could do pretty good selling T-Shirts," I survived The Great Wuhan scare of 2020".
Last summer I saw a woman wearing a "I survived Covid" T-shirt.
I'm trying to find something mocking masks and the Wuhan Flu but Duck Duck Go must be blocking everything. All I get are whiny snowflake crap like "We're all in this Together".
You should check out the Hodgetwins.

I heard Duck duck Go has joined the government censorship team.
“Not good enough” — well, I’d wager that your blood glucose, cholesterol and natural Vitamin D levels have improved tremendously. Keep it up and give yourself a pat on the back!!
I've never been healthier than I am now thanks to their lockdown & vaxx-forcing. I haven't masked or gotten the jab. I have upped all my supplements and exercise.
Good for you!! Same here. I finally got to have time to myself and establish new habits. As challenging as they last 2 yrs have been, there's LOTS of silver linings like this. Stay well!
Same to you. I wish I could say I also escaped the mental torture unscathed... but sadly I don't believe that's possible to anyone who knows what's going on. But we soldier on, eh? And hey - at least we live in interesting times!
I believe (see disclaimer below) that if you are suffering from obesity, you should supplement with about 100 to 150 IU per kilogram bodyweight per day. So 100 kg (220 lb) means 10,000 to 15,000 IU/day. The latter is 0.375 mg a day, which is a gram every 7.3 years. Please see the table towards the end of https://nutritionmatters.substack.com/p/calcifediol-to-boost-25-hydroxyvitamin. The amount per kg for people not suffering from obesity is 70 to 100 IU/day, based on Afshar et al. 2020: https://vitamindstopscovid.info/01-supp/#2020-Afshar . For those suffering from obesity, a factor of 1.5 times this is needed, according to my analysis of Ekwaru et al. 2014: https://vitamindstopscovid.info/01-supp/a-ratios/ . The table, from (retired) Professor of Medicine Sunil Wimalwansa in New Jersey (CV: https://www.ama-assn.org/system/files/2019-03/bio-sketch-sunil-wimalawansa_0.pdf ) is based on these two ranges of quantities, with a third range with a 2.0 multiplier which he judges is appropriate for those suffering from morbid obesity. Obesity causes many problems with health in general and especially COVID-19: https://aminotheory.com/cv19/obesity/ . It also lowers circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D because the excess fat cells absorb it and do not return much of it to the bloodstream. Obesity is in part an inflammatory condition, which causes and in part is caused by low 25-hydroxyvitamin D. Obesity involves ectopic adipocytes (fat cells where they do not belong) in the alveolar (air sac) tissue of the lungs. There, they emit pro-inflammatory cytokines and can be infected by SARS-CoV-2.
This table is now incorporated into the the FLCCC's I-MASK+ home treatment protocol https://covid19criticalcare.com/covid-19-protocols/i-mask-plus-protocol/ and is for long term maintenance of 50 ng/mL or more 25-hydroxyvitamin D, which is what the immune system needs to function properly. See the graph from Quraishi et al. 2014: https://vitamindstopscovid.info/02-autocrine/#04-quraishi .
It takes several months to attain the desired 25-hydroxyvitamin D level with these long-term vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) supplemental intakes. For those who are ill and have not been adequately supplementing vitamin D3 for months, there is an urgent need to boost there 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels. Bolus (large, single dose, such as 10 mg 400,000 IU, for 70 kg bodyweight without obesity) vitamin D3 can do this in (very approximately) 4 days.
The best approach - which can make the difference between harm / rapid recovery and life / death - is to boost the circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in about 4 hours with a single oral dose of calcifediol, which is the pharma name for 25-hydroxyvitamin D. This involves (roughly, it is not at all critical) 0.014 mg calcifediol per kg bodyweight, as shown in the table (also from Prof. Wimalawansa) in the FLCCC's MATH+ hospital treatment protcol.
More details on using calcifediol or bolus vitamin D3, and the need to maint the initially boosted levels with regular vitamin D3, are at: https://nutritionmatters.substack.com/p/calcifediol-to-boost-25-hydroxyvitamin .
I am 69 kg and take a 1.25mg 50,000 IU vitamin D3 capsule every week. It is best not to space intakes out by more than a week: https://asbmr.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/jbm4.10606 . I guess my 25-hydroxyvitamin D level is at least 50 ng/mL and maybe 100 ng/mL. This is good enough for me - I don't feel the need to test it. There is very little vitamin D3 in food or multiivitamins. It can be made from UV-B skin exposure but this is not always avaiable, and the UV-B inevitably causes DNA damage and so raises the risk of skin cancer. (Ther may well be other benefits from sunlight and UV-B skin exposure, but it is not a good way to get sufficient vitamin D3 on a long-term basis.)
The MDs and researchers I collaborate with regarding raising awareness of vitamin D and the immnue system believe that magnesium is also a very common deficiency. I think that boron is another neglected nutrient, the deficiency of which makes inflammatory disorders worse. See the research articles cited at: https://aminotheory.com/cv19/#08-boron .
I have no medical qualifications or experience. Please read the research articles I cite in the above pages and at https://vitamindstopscovid.info/05-mds/ to help you and/or your healthcare professional make well informed decisions regarding nutrition and health.
Controversial statement but skin cancer is mostly from sunscreen. Many holistic doctors will agree. Australia has the highest skin cancer rate and they also wear the most sunscreen.
Thank you for this wonderful overview.
Can you find a non salicylic form of GERD supplement, I want off Nexium, not found a way to get off, Barrett's Esophagus pre-cancers doom me to taking it. And even OTC isn't cheap, nor healthy. None of the stuff I've tried works. Mag Citrate at roughly half your Cal Citrate not Oxide which is not absorbed well, and look at Selenium https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-1003/selenium vs Melatonin. Stronium Citrate at half or roughly what you use as non rock form Calcium for your bones. Biotin, Folic Acid are trace and are needed, our preserving and growing methods rob soil of minerials, Michigan soil is very Selinuim and Thiamine poor.
High carb diet heavy in refined flour and sugar can be the problem. Look up Dr. Ken Berry on any platform and many others teaching ketogenic way of eating.
You may be interested to note that your levels of vitamin d, despite hefty dosing via supplementation, is because the body doesnt process vitamin d supplements in the same way that it produces it via the sun exposure. Your cholesterol levels will also dictate how much vitamin d you generate. As well as your place of location. D Minder app can be helpful in telling you when you window for making D is, based on your location and time of year. In case your interested. 😉🤗
Using D-Minder. Love it. I've turned friends on to using it. I live on the California Central Coast and UVI levels are great here year round. We have UVI 8 today.
This was enlightening for me as well: https://youtu.be/8LFkWiNP1wQ
Great job. Keep going...it'll just get better and better. I made the change in July 2020...went Paleo diet, low carb, no sugar or seed oil. Also started supplementing Vit D, C, Zinc/Quercitin. Lost 50 lbs at age 50 and no problem keeping it off. Feel fantastic, look 15 years younger and immune system is apparently primed cuz I'm never sick. Big lesson in life...take charge of your own health. And that's 80%+ what you eat.
Glad to hear these success stories. Simple fact...unless you have an unusual health condition reducing carbs will cause you to burn fat. It's that simple.
I'm a big fan of Dr Ben Bikman and his explanation of diet on insulin levels and the subsequent impact on fat burning. Really important stuff.
You have become awakened to our more serious societal problems such as "we are what we eat" and the importance of the immune system and the massive number of "drugs" inherently destroying our immune system. 15 minutes of body-sunshine every day is another secret the government enjoys hiding. Those UV blockers alone are cancer causing slow death gifts from the age of population reduction. Stay with the program. Doctors are carriers of the slow death disease. Big Pharma rewards them regularly for prescribing experiment drugs approved by their payoffs to the PHS system.
Go on Keto. Sugar and carbohydrates are your enemy. They are the cause of all underlying health issues
DR great advice.
Cutting sugar and carbs reduces a multiple poor health factors such as diabetes, cholesterol, heart failure, pulmonary etc.
Yes yes yes!
Pureblood may be a very desirable commodity in the coming months.
Or pure-pure blood. Those who have not been jabbed and those who have not gotten COVID.
So, if I had covid, unjabbed, and recovered and am healthy I’m still worse off?! Am I at least protected from the next (possibly bad because of the vax) variant?
I’m thinking so, as well.
Great last name, mine is as well. No D in it :-D.
In what way? Do you just mean that the unjabbed will be healthier overall? It's on my radar to create a walking blood bank registry of friends and family who didn't get the jab and who are compatible donors/recipients by blood type in case any of us needs blood, we can get unjabbed people we know to donate, rather than getting spike proteins and mRNA possibly from a jabbed person's blood.
My list of friends and family to pray for keeps growing and growing. I’m getting seriously worried that I may actually have to become a churchgoer :-/
I was a church goer until the Church caved on WuFlu; they tolerated their closure while the govt kept liquor stores and strip clubs open. Now it is just G-d and us.
Heard that our bishop told our priests to not write religious exemption letters for parishioners to give to their employers who had vax mandates. Bishop was very pro vax brainwashed, not to mention willfully ignorant of any valid religious objections. That really disappointed me that he wouldn't support his parishioners when we support the diocese. So I cut off donations to the diocese.
Good on you, I did the same. The lack of courage in the Diocese is astounding. It is embarrassing, really.
Haha. I wonder if we go to the same diocese...maybe church! :-) By the way, I also say "good on you" -- I picked it up from an instructor 25 years ago who was former air Navy guy. Not many people I know say that. I wonder if I know you. :-) Have a good day!
I did the same thing. I also heard many parishioners wanted forced vaccinations. I think the priest where I go became sympathetic to them on hearing their distress. It’s just plain wrong.
Just heard about 3 stillborns at 28 weeks at church bible group, all mothers vaxxed.
tragic
I wonder about getting placentas autopsied. I would.
Listening to a major radio show last May... Three young pregnant women called in in a row to report they all miscarried a week after vax. The devastation caused by all thing Pharma will be with us forever.
The risk/reward calculation for me said no vax. Didn't feel I was in a risk category, and no idea what's in the substance they wanted me to inject repeatedly. And then I got covid and recovered, after which point it was just never going to happen.
Every American should have had the right to decide for themselves whether they wanted the fake vaccine. The mandate that forced them to choose between their livelihood and getting the shot was unconstitutional and cruel. Good for you for taking time to make your decision.
I love that. "go long on decisions" -- property, relationships, and other major life choices. Pray, plan, prepare, resist. I love it. I proceed with caution more and more often as I get older.
SD
The 3 of us have increased in discernment when the hard knocks come and with God’s help we emerge stronger.
Thanks be to God!
God's will, not mine be done. As I get older, I also realize that I prefer to be around people who keep God first place. The wealth of the ungodly will eventually make it's way into the hands of the righteous, for whom it was intended.
Absolutely SD. Comforting to know the path has already been fixed before us as sons and daughters.
Everyday the Holy Spirit leads if we watch and listen. In every situation two or more sources come to me on the same subject. This is God.
Here is one of the devotionals for today:
Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
Ephesians 5:15-16
Amen BH
Pray, plan, prepare, RESIST
✝️
I've started to believe this all might be nature's way of fixing the Blue Flu.
Frankly, I see the masses falling for this all again in the fall. The media will slowly start ramping up the fear porn, and all the politicians will fall in line lock step with masking and pushing vaccines. Bourla is already out there saying a fourth booster is coming....mind you for a variant that no longer exists and a shot that never protected anyone in the first place but actually made things worse. But people are stupid and blindly believe whatever the boob tube tells them. I would hope that an awakening is happening, but when I go to the grocery store and still see everyone masked up, I'm completely disheartened.
I’m with you…you just KNOW they’ve got a new “anothercon” coming, maybe even a NEW disease/threat. And the sheeple will run for the shot once again. I cannot believe all the younger people 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, still masked up…mass formation psychosis hard at work!
Food shortages and inflation are currently on the menu
China has a new lockdown for yet another variety
“Stealth” omicron. It just had to have a sinister sounding adjective. In reality, it’s an Omi variant, that is more transmissible, allegedly.
For those of us not living in fear, and PUREBLOOD, getting Omi is essential, for natural immunity. It is truly mild for typical healthy people. It was a 2-3 day event for me, no fever, ticklish throat, a little malaise and some minor congestion, and that’s it. My prep for Covid has been Zelenko protocol, plus a broad multi-vitamin supplement, k2, magnesium, potassium and NAC. This for a late 50s dude carrying a few extra pounds around.
The fear porn promoted by all the media, politicians, bureaucrats, medical system and pro-vax wingnuts, has changed our society and relationships forever. The result? People and groups that used to preach tolerance of everything, have turned into mean-spirited, vengeful monsters.
I wonder if there is truly some additive in the jabs, that affects that part of the brain, the personality changes are very noticeable
I think that’s called evil.
Nailed LJ
It’s that simple spiritual warfare
When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.
Isaiah 43:2
Thank much Mabel. Iron sharpening iron. I needed that verse today!!!!!!!
We know we will not be completely “out” of the fire and might even die (cf Bonhoeffer), but in current vernacular “it’s all good” . Why? Not because of fatalism, or some sort of Voltarian “best of all possible worlds” type unreasonable optimism but because God is in charge! I’m thinking Elijah and Daniel and friends and the disciples being crucified. No matter what happens, God is good.
I had a sore throat for four days in the late fall, that did not turn into a head cold (which is my usual). Wondering if this was my stint with "omi".
Pure blood means never jabbed?
Yes there is in the jabs a brain damage component.
In my town in Connecticut, which was 95% masked (with no mask mandate) just a few weeks ago, most people aren't masked anymore. They took the masks off of the kids (which was a fight but of course no increase in "cases") and then the adults followed suit. My husband thinks we should move to a red state just in case and he's probably right, but it makes me sad being from New England just how many sheep there are up here.
Come to Florida...we love it here, and DeSantis is a great governor.
Yes but isn’t it possible he could be voted out? Especially with all the new transplants. I’m here in Texas. Firmly red. But.....
The transplants are there because of his policies...his re-election is all but guaranteed unless he runs for President which I truly hope he does.... speaking as a Canadian...
And yet if elected president, that isn’t a panacea. And one can only hope his Floridian successor is anti Covidian.
We’ve got our own transplant problem here in Texas though don’t we? At least in Houston, Dallas and Austin
Yup. We do. Atx here.
I'm in Vermont and could have written this because it is exactly the same here. We're also considering moving to a red state, something my former liberal self would never have believed two years ago. Do we trade the quality of life for freedom? Or is moving to a red state just buying us a couple years before all of the west descends into full digital slavery?
