This very valuable research demonstrates the increasing importance of a neuro-protective diet for women in peri-menopause and menopause.

Menopause is linked to reductions in grey matter volume in key brain regions as well as increased levels of anxiety and depression and difficulties with sleep,

If I had my way I’d have compulsory nutrition education for doctors, change the recommended Food Pyramid towards low GL real foods, ban or disincentivise ultra-processed foods and unnecessary and potentially harmful food ingredients, stop the pharma funded drug regulator controlling food supplements and legitimate medical claims as a means to protect drug sales over natural compounds.

I’d also insist that vaccines are subject to the same rigour required for any medicine and give the public accurate evidence regarding efficacy and safety so they can make informed choices.

In case you hadn’t noticed this is exactly what Robert Kennedy, the US Secretary of Health, has been up to in the US, demanding that all doctors in the US will now study nutrition, treating food as medicine.

He’s also pushing for legislature to end mandatory vaccines that require a child wishing to attend school to have. The list of compulsory vaccines has already reduced from 17 to 11. Before this, the total number of vaccine doses required for a child to go to school was 77. The combined effect of this is largely unresearched and thus unknown.

He’s also been banning certain toxic chemicals allowed in food and removing vested interests from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For me this came to a head when ten out of eleven expert advisors voted against licensing the Alzheimer’s drug aducanemab concluding there was not enough evidence of effectiveness. Yet the drug was licensed. Several experts resigned.

He's also proposing a new regulatory process for food supplements, out of the hands of the largely pharma funded FDA. He’s also radically overhauled the directorial and scientific line up of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and its vaccine advisory apparatus to remove key people with vested interests enabling political interference against the science-based advice.

With so much madness going on it’s good to see someone facing up to corruption. What do you think?

Great advice about a diverse plant based diet, however do not panic, diversity does not disappear after a few days of unhealthy eating. It happens only over a prolonged period of time such as weeks or months. So if you improve your diet and lifestyle, you can have days off without overall negative impact (and you will feel the difference and crave to go back to healthy eating :)
