Over 50% of adults take daily supplements for everything from gut health to longevity — and it's killing our bodies.

The supplement industry has skyrocketed in popularity, with millions turning to pills and powders. However, a growing body of research reveals a troubling downside: supplement-related liver damage is on the rise.

Experts warn that certain compounds—like green tea extract, ashwagandha, and red yeast rice—can be toxic, especially when taken in high doses or mixed with other substances.

Mislabeling, contamination, and unregulated manufacturing add to the risks, leaving consumers unaware of potential dangers. As a result, liver injuries linked to supplements have surged, with some cases leading to transplant lists.

Despite their appeal, experts emphasize that supplements should never replace a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

While some, like folic acid for pregnancy and omega-3s for heart health, offer proven benefits, many claims lack solid evidence. Megadosing—exceeding recommended levels—can cause severe side effects, including gastrointestinal issues, high blood pressure, and even organ damage.

Since the FDA does not regulate supplements as strictly as medications, it’s crucial to research trusted sources, consult healthcare professionals, and prioritize whole foods over unverified pills. In the end, true wellness comes from balanced nutrition, exercise, and mindful living—not quick-fix supplements.

Interestingly, the mainstream media is trying to turn this level of transparency into something negative as they do not report news in good faith.
✓ What Happened - Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is taking steps to hold corporations accountable by eliminating loopholes that allow them to introduce potentially harmful products into the market. A significant focus is on the FDA's "Generally Recognized as Safe" (GRAS) loophole, which permits companies to self-certify the safety of food additives without FDA oversight. This practice has led to the inclusion of numerous chemicals in the U.S. food supply without rigorous safety evaluations.

“For far too long, ingredient manufacturers and sponsors have exploited a loophole that has allowed new ingredients and chemicals, often with unknown safety data, to be introduced into the U.S. food supply without notification to the FDA or the public,” Kennedy said in a recent statement.

“Eliminating this loophole will provide transparency to consumers, help get our nation’s food supply back on track by ensuring that ingredients being introduced into foods are safe, and ultimately Make America Healthy Again.”

💡 Why It's Important - It's really simple: these ingredients don't need to be in the food, and taking them out will make people healthier by reducing complex ingredients and toxic load on their system.

∞ The Takeaway - It's important to pay attention to the aggressive smear campaign the US media is placing on Kennedy. Take the time to truly look into what he is saying, and do so without taking the MSM ridicule and talking points that are design as press to support Big Pharma, Big Agriculture and Big Food. Funding to news stations from these organizations is buying them good press - remember that.

Greetings
The past three months have been gruesome for most of us. The normalcy we had taken for granted up until the lock-down became our longings and hopes that we return soon. I like to say Congratulations to everyone who made through to this point of reopening. It also taught us what’s most important to live healthy and happy.

Now we are at the point of reopening and my job as an Acupuncturist and herbalist, I ‘d like to focus on health and healthy lifestyle through my work. As we have learned and acknowledged through medical information that our healthy immunity is the biggest defense force to fight to even unknown viruses, illnesses, and diseases. We have some degree of knowledge about what weakens and strengthens our immune system.

The nature of acupuncture is balancing your homeostasis, keeping, and strengthening your immune response by relieving stress in your body and mind. Qi(energy) and blood regulation awaken your body to fight back internal and external distress without side effects. For this reason, acupuncture and herbal medicine are known for not only treating illness but also one of the best preventive medicine. During the Covid-19 pandemic in China 90 patients were treated with acupuncture and herbs medicine and they all recovered.

I believe acupuncture truly helps to strengthen your immune system and relieve pent up stress from pandemic lock-down. With reopening my practice, I will follow safety guidelines and will take the best caution at the same time provide a comfortable and relaxing environment.

I hope this finds you well and see you soon.
