Young people aren’t dying from protein deficiencies
They’re dying from fiber deficiencies

Fiber is key to:
β€’ Protecting against colon cancer
β€’ Fighting heart disease
β€’ Boosting fat loss

Yet 95% of people don’t get enough.

Here are high-fiber foods you need:

1. Chia seeds
Chia Seeds – 15g per ounce

Add 1–2 tbsp to smoothies, yogurt, or overnight oats.

These tiny seeds swell in liquid, keeping you full, improving digestion, and stabilizing blood sugar.

A simple way to start your day with a fiber boost.
2. Lentils – 15g per cup

Toss them into soups, stews, curries, or salads.

Lentils are rich in fiber, protein, and minerals, making them a double win for satiety, muscle building, and fat loss.

The scariest food & health shifts from 1960 to today

In 60 years, our food, farms, medicine, and supplements have changed dramatically.

Here’s what happenedβ€”and why it matters for your health:

1. Cooking oils (1960)
Butter, ghee, and animal fats were the kitchen staples.

Seed oils were rareβ€”mostly used in labs and industrial work, not in food.
2. Cooking oils (Today)

Now, 90–95% of restaurants use industrial seed oils.

These are ultra-processed, prone to oxidation, and linked to inflammation and poor metabolic health.

Most men aren’t struggling with fat.

They’re struggling with false beliefs.

Here are 3 mindset traps keeping guys stuckβ€”and how to break free:

Read thread 🧡
1. β€œI need to give up everything I love to get fit.”

This is why most guys quit.

They think fitness means:
β†’ No carbs
β†’ No drinks
β†’ No social life

Reality? 80% real food, 20% freedom, 3 lifts/week, daily walks = results without misery.
2. β€œI’ll start when life slows down.”

It never will.

Deadlines, kids, travelβ€”always something.

Fitness isn’t the reward after chaos.
It’s the tool to handle chaos.

Treat workouts like board meetings:
β†’ Schedule them
β†’ Make them non-negotiable

Statins are Big Pharma’s $19B cash cow.

They’re prescribed as β€œmiracle pills” for cholesterolβ€”yet 50% of heart attacks happen in people with normal LDL.

Here’s the dark truth they don’t want you to know 🧡
1. Statins were sold as life-saving drugs to lower LDL cholesterol.

The real problem isn’t LDL itself…

That’s what drives plaque buildup.
2. The issue isn’t just side effects.

Statins reduce cholesterol in ways that damage:
β†’ Brain
β†’ Hormones
β†’ Muscle tissue
β†’ Cell membranes

Here’s how they quietly harm your body…
