We used to grow it, pick it, and make it ourselves. 🥬🍞
Now we order it, microwave it, or grab it on the go—and then pop pills to fill the gaps.

Can’t believe this needs saying, but here we are: Leafy greens, nightshades, nuts, legumes, and mushrooms are not toxic.
The fear of lectins, oxalates, or goitrogens is completely overblown.
Data shows people eating more of these foods live longer, healthier lives. 🤷♂️

Just a heads-up: if your yogurt has sugar, artificial sweeteners, colors, pieces of fruit or cereals, added probiotics, and no fat—then it’s not real yogurt. It’s most likely a cheap yogurt derivative that lacks the nutritional value and beneficial bacteria of a whole-food yogurt.

According to a new study, Ozempic —the famous weight-loss "wonder" pill— might also be shrinking the human heart. 💔

Food is more than just a collection of nutrients.
It's a complex interplay of vitamins, minerals, fibers, and bioactive compounds that work together in ways that isolated supplements simply can't replicate.
