The Truth About Eggs

5 Reasons to Stop Eating Eggs Today (warning some graphic images)

   Hello everyone, as you know I don't consume eggs and this video expresses most of the reasons why. Easter is coming up and I always feel like stressing this subject more around this time since so many people will be buying boatloads of eggs. 
   There are so many stories floating around about eggs that nobody is on the same page, this is reliable real science based information so you will no longer be confused if eggs are a health food or not, it also shows you what goes into egg laying such as the torture of the hens and male chicks, then when you find out what eggs actually are and where they come from it's a little disgusting if you ask me, without further ado please watch the video.

Dr. John McDougall on Vitamin Supplements

Hey guys, here is another video that I recommend watching to learn why taking vitamin supplements aren't best, all you have to do is eat a healthy diet and you will have most of your basis covered, even taking supplements for "insurance" or "back up" is not going to be the same thing or beneficial, also keep in mind that fortified foods like cereals and milks are the same thing as taking a supplement, yes they are usually the same lab created ingredients and not from the true food source, the only supplement that is recommend for everyone is B12, and Omega 3 DHA and EPA if you need it.

 Click Here for his short video on supplementing. And Click Here to read his newsletter that goes into more detail on what he talks about.

Why I Don't Eat Cheese

I came across some disturbing studies about cheese and thought I would share them with you just in case you wanted to know, otherwise just ignore it, it's up to you. But these are just a few of the many reasons why I don't eat cheese-

Apparently cheese contains the highest amount of Aluminum in your diet. This is toxic and is linked to Alzheimer's.

I discovered Cheese mites and maggots, how gross is that? Just click on the link, yuck!

Also Saturated fat and breast cancer is an informative video.

Of course there are plenty of videos about dairy and saturated fats on that website, but I don't want to list them all, that would be overwhelming, so feel free to look at them or other subjects, I could watch them for hours! Also check out more of my posts under Dairy is NOT a Health Food.
