Modern diseases aren’t a natural occurrence; they’re byproducts of our industrialized world. The demand for mass-produced food necessitated rapid processing and distribution, ushering in the era of fast food. While the FDA was tasked with regulating heavy metal exposure in our food supply, its capacity to monitor all processing plants has been overwhelmed.

Despite recent efforts to regulate infant formula, heavy metals persist in our food. Mining operations continue to contaminate our water sources, and atmospheric testing has led states like Tennessee to ban geoengineering due to concerns about heavy metal use in weather modification. New Hampshire is poised to follow suit.

Our bodies are also grappling with the increasing presence of parasites and worms in our food. While our digestive systems were once equipped to handle these organisms, the accumulation of plastic and other pollutants in our gut has compromised our ability to eliminate them effectively. This disruption, coupled with the presence of heavy metals, is contributing to the emergence of modern diseases that were previously unknown.
