Most people never think about their liver. The liver is the second largest organ in the body after our skin. It weighs 2-3 pounds and performs a myriad of functions we take for granted. It is classified as both an organ (executes chemical actions) and a gland (secretes chemicals for other parts of the body to use). At any one time, it holds 13% of the total amount of blood in the body. It removes toxins by burning them through the combination of oxidation and liver enzymes. In conjunction with the pancreas, it helps maintain normal blood sugar levels in the body either by releasing stored glycogen or absorbing glucose in response to insulin from the pancreas. It produces nearly 1,000 milliliters (mL) of bile a day with the help of the gallbladder for use in digesting fats and vitamins in the small intestine. 

A study by the Cleveland Clinic was published in June 2023 which proves something most of us already knew: COVID vaccines increase the chances of getting COVID—they are NOT protective! Due to a federal mandate, most of the 48,344 employees at the Cleveland Clinic were mandated to get a COVID jab to keep their job. A minority of those employees (11,990) chose to be completely 'up-to-date' on their vaccines by getting boosters too. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines these requirements and how many boosters are necessary to be considered up-to-date. Interestingly, 36,344 medical employees (three times as many) wisely chose to disregard the government's heavy-handed tactics and remained NOT up-to-date with their COVID boosters. Researchers considered them wise, because guess which group turned out to be more susceptible to COVID? The up-to-date employees had 25% more COVID infections. Unexplainably, female vaccinated employees had a 24% higher chance of getting COVID than their male vaccinated co-workers. The final data, adjusted for confounders (variables that mask the true relationship), showed that the up-to-date employees were 33% more likely to get COVID! 

Have you heard of Apeel? It is being marketed as a newly developed, plant-based, protective coating that "helps the produce you love stay fresh for longer." It retains moisture within the produce and keeps oxygen out, which retards how fast the produce can naturally spoil. Apeel Sciences was founded with a $100,000 grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (a red flag). Other red flag investors include the Rockefeller Foundation; the World Bank Group; Anne Wojcicki who is co-founder and CEO of the personal genomics company 23andMe; and Susan Wojcicki who used to be CEO of YouTube. Walmart, Costco, Kroger, Trader Joe's and other retailers currently sell Apeel-treated avocados, cucumbers, lemons, limes, oranges, organic apples, grapefruit, mandarins, and mangos with the Apeel protected sticker on them.

I wrote about Atrazine in my book, There's An Elephant in the Room—Exposing Hidden Truths in the Science of Health (page 78) and I have a webinar titled Endocrine Disruptors that provides  even more details. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. participated in a podcast with Jordan Peterson on June 5, 2023. Among other things, he mentioned the herbicide atrazine as a possible cause of sexual dysphoria particularly with boys. The podcast was censored and deleted by YouTube (apparently they are the dictatorial enforcer of what constitutes 'misinformation') but fortunately a few social media platforms still allow freedom of speech (especially for U.S. Presidential candidates), so you can find the interview on Twitter (the link is available here). 

On September 12, 2022, President Biden signed an executive order making biotechnology a national priority for all branches of government and all U.S. agencies. Similar legislation exists in the U.K. In March 2023, Biden expanded on this order with his Bold Goals for U.S. Biotechnology and Biomanufacturing report. "While advocates and some companies have been working to reduce methane emissions from food, cut down on food waste, increase capacity for producing alternative proteins and use bioengineering to make healthier and hardier crops and animals, goals like these have never before come from the White House." Rather than let the free market determine the direction of technology, the White House is again over-stepping their constitutional bounds and mandating the development of lab-grown meat and/or cell-cultivated meat to feed the American public.
