The richest man in history created the Pharmaceutical machine that is keeping you sick.

Here's how John D Rockefeller did it. 🧵 Image
Western medicine has a focus on drugs, surgery and radiation.

Preventative diets and holistic practices are highly discouraged by doctors.

In fact, health practitioners who prescribe these things are seen as "quacks" and cast off by Western medicine.
In the US, we are not in the practice of healthcare, we are in the practice of sickcare. Currently:

🔴70% of US adults are overweight or obese
🔴1 in 3 Americans are pre-diabetic
🔴7 out of 10 deaths are caused by Chronic Illness
🔴Heart disease kills 500,000 Americans yearly Image
We are also in a prescription drug epidemic due to our ties with Big Pharma and our tendency to over-prescribe. Currently:

🔴16M Americans abuse prescription drugs
🔴2M Prescription drug abusers are addicted
🔴4 out of 5 pharmacy-filled prescriptions are opioids Image
This thread will detail the bizarre history behind John D Rockefeller's creation of Big Pharma and the foundations of Western Medicine that are destroying our metabolic health.
John D Rockefeller was an oil magnate and one of the richest men in history.

He was America’s first billionaire and amassed a fortune of $418B adjusted for inflation. Image
Through monopolistic practices, Rockefeller grew his company, Standard Oil, to control 90% of all oil refineries in the U.S.

Standard Oil has since broken up and has now become Chevron, Exxon, Mobil, etc.

Yes, that’s how big Standard Oil was in its prime. Image
In 1900, Scientists discovered petrochemicals.

These were chemicals that could be created from oil.

Bakelite, the first plastic, was created from oil in 1907. Image
Scientists were discovering various synthetic vitamins that could be used to treat illnesses such as Scurvy and Rickets that were caused by Vitamin deficiencies.

Rockefeller thought that Petrochemicals could also be used to create vitamins and medications. Image
Petrochemicals would allow Rockefeller to monopolize another industry in addition to oil.

Business-wise, Rockefeller could patent these Petrochemicals and sell them for immense profits.
Rockefeller acted quickly and purchased part of I.G. Farben - a German manufacturing company.

Side Note: I.G. Farben supplied the Nazis during WWII. Yep, look it up.
However, Rockefeller faced a major dilemma as he looked to monopolize medicine:

Natural & Herbal medicines were incredibly popular at the time.

Many doctors and medical schools in the US were advocating holistic practices as treatment & cure.
Like he did for other competing oil companies, Rockefeller viewed natural remedies as his "competition" that needed to be decimated.

Rockefeller teamed up with Andrew Carnegie and hired a man named Abraham Flexner through the Carnegie Foundation. Image
Flexner’s role was to travel the US and review Medical schools & hospitals across the country.

This led to the Flexner Report which resulted in the closure of almost 50% of all medical schools. Image
Homeopathy and Natural medicines were utterly decimated in the report. Some holistic doctors were even jailed.

Rockefeller also donated a whopping $100M to colleges and hospitals under his philanthropic group called the General Education Board. Image
In a short period of time, medical schools & hospitals were homogenized with the same approach. Medicine was just about patented drugs, not utilizing holistic & natural approaches as treatment.
Rockefeller's next step was to launch a smear campaign against his holistic "competitors."

Homeopathy and Natural Medicines were quickly discredited by the newspapers and media outlets. Image
Rockefeller's approach worked incredibly well as he decimated the holistic competition and ultimate created our current medical system.

This system continues today: Big Pharma makes large donations to medical schools in exchange for these schools to prescribe their drugs. Image
Again, this post is not to bash on Western Medicine.

It is to show the unfiltered history of John D Rockefeller and the role he played in shaping our current medical system.
The next time your doctor spends 3 minutes with you during your visit and you feel like a "customer" instead of a patient, this post will hopefully give you clarity.

Not surprisingly, the cost of medical care in the US is #1 in the world, yet our quality is ranked at #37 . Image
It is your responsibility to be the CEO of your own health.

At the end of the day, no one cares about your own health more than you.

Take in a variety of different inputs and make the decision of what is in your best interest.
Start seeing your food and lifestyle as the true medicine.

Be intentional about where your source your food and the amount of sleep you get.

Use these as your pillars to THRIVE. Image

In 2023, America produced over $92 Billion dollars worth of Corn.

It's also what is keeping you fat & sick.

THREAD🧵 Image
The US is obsessed with Corn.

Grown the right way, corn can be: delicious, nutritious, and beneficial for the environmental.

When mass-produced, corn can be: flavorless, unhealthy, and destroy what could be rich farm land. Image
The history of Corn:

Corn was created 9,000 years ago through breeding of a Mexican grass called Teosinte.

Scientists believe early Mexican inhabitants must have seen the nutritional potential of Teosinte due to the kernels that they produce. Image

The U.S. spent $4.3 trillion on health care in 2021.

We live in an epidemic of ultra-processed foods.

Here is how you have been lied to and what you can do about it: Image
Prior to the invention of food-like products, the men brought home dinner for the family.

Food was sacred.

It was treated with respect due to the man killing another conscious being.

Men suffered the mental burden, but what was the other option?

Part of being a man. Image
Around 12,000 years ago, we shifted away from hunting and gathering to permanent settlements.

We treated the land with respect and food was only plentiful for the most wealthy. Image

Since 2015, your meat has been fraudulently labeled a Product of the USA.

Here's how you're being lied to: Image
When walking by the meat counter at the grocery store, you will likely see the label "Product of the USA."

You may even see labels like "Pasture-Raised" or "Grass-Fed"

The labels are detracting from the fact that the beef you are about to purchase was not made in the USA. Image
In 2002, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) passed a law called the Country of Origin Labeling Act (COOL).

The law was part of the Farm Bill and was created to give consumers transparency into their meat + ranchers a fair price for growing meat domestically. Image

Did you know that McDonald's used to cook all of their food in beef tallow?

Then in 1990, a millionaire (who believed saturated fat was the root cause of heart attacks) campaigned for Mcdonald's to switch to a "heart-healthy oil."

Here is the full story: Image
Since 1954, McDonald's has been the behemoth of fast food.

McDonald's currently sells:

✅4,500 burgers every minute.
✅270,000 every hour.
✅6.48 million every day...

✅and 2.36 billion burgers every year. Image
McDonald's has 14,000 U.S. locations and is the face of American gluttony.

Processed meats, sugars, oils & convenience are the epitome of the Mcdonald's brand.

But what if this was not always the case? What if there was a world that existed where Mcdonald's was healthy? Image
