The world renowned and highly prestigious Mayo Clinic weighed in on the Obamacare proposal yersterday, with a resounding “NO!” This was an act of courage, because the Chicago thugs have been busy blackmailing and threatening the medical professionals to go along with what could only be called “a steaming pile of horse flop.”
Mayo said that that not only would El Jefe’s plan not reduce costs, but it would significantly lower the standard of care, remove current choices, and put bureaucrats between patients and doctors. They also went out of their way to point out that in countries that have already tried this experiment, FAILURE is the key word.
One of the main reasons that European countries have remained significantly behind the rest of the world, in economic power, is that their healthcare costs are phenomenonally high, and that all of them are looking at ways to change the current system, which is unsustainable.
But that isn’t deterring the Majority Liar, one Nancy Pelosi, who is actually a Communist at heart, albeit one who would have lived in a fancy dacha outside Moscow, and shopped at stores only for the glitterati.
She admitted that the reason for the tax on people making over $250,000 was that people she knew wouldn’t recognize millionaires, but they certainly could be envious of their next door neighbor. If that doesn’t qualify her as a Russian, nothing will.
One thing is for certain, nobody in this Administration can ever talk about “transparency,” ever again. The reason is quite simple. When people actually get to see what these idiots are proposing, they don’t want any part of it.
That’s the reason the Obamessiah is in such a hurry. The more parts of the bill that are leaked to the public, the more the public is turning against the bill. And nobody wanted the monstrosity these clowns are trying to ram down our throats, in the first place.
Whew! Nothing gets me going like stupidity, and of course, communists, fascists, and socialists masquerading as Democrats with a vision. And of course, while all this plays out, the NY Times runs a piece trying to make Jackass Jimmy Carter a candidate for sainthood.
I guess they think that nobody remembers what an unmitigated disaster Carter was. Maybe we should get back in the time capsule and relive 20% interest rates, not to mention the absolute moral cowardice in his dealings with Iran. But by God, he knew who was playing tennis on the White House Courts.
After a rant like this, I’ll have to hit the hills, to do a little walking on the toughest of my three courses.
Exercise is a great natural stress reliever, certainly better than any drug you can take. You really should exercise a minimum of four to five times a week for thirty minutes, and it will do you a world of good. Stress is a killer, and does a lot of damage to your body. You need to find a way to relieve that stress, and exercise is the best way to do that, because it activates all the systems in your body.
Increasing your oxygen level, by taxing your body, is like changing the oil in your car–the more often you do it, the better your car runs. But unlike a car, your body needs that change, several times a week for you to run at an optimum level.
I’m not a big believer in running, or endless minutes on a treadmill. I think that actually does more harm than good, and tomorrow I’ll tell you why, and what you should do instead.
In the meantime, make sure you get some of my Powerhouse Omega Formula, the world’s best pharmaceutical grade fish oil, and take it twice a day, every single day, just like I do.
I’m headed off to work up a little sweat, and wash the socialists out of my system.

Today I got word about just how bad the infighting is among the socialist Democrats in the House. The DNC, (Democratic National Committee), is actually running ads in the home states of their own party members, who are questioning the AP (Asinine Plan) crafted in House committees.
The DNC is under the complete control of the Obamessiah and his social engineers in the White House, and they are hoping to frighten Democrats, who are actually listening to their constituents. Those constituents, and there are more and more of them every day, are justifiably concerned that healthcare as we know it (the best in the world), is headed straight into the crapper.
The President went on the attack today, saying that healthcare would not be his Waterloo, but poll numbers show that he is not moving the needle.
The American people smell the stench coming off this bill, like the opening of a refrigerator full of food that had the power turned off in the middle of June. The only thing that smells worse than that is Janeane Garofalo.
As the esteemed Charles Krauthammer said this evening, there is no reason for Republicans to criticize the Democratic proposal, as it commits slow suicide. Just get out of the way, and let them fall on their own swords.
But while that may be good advice in Washington, we need to keep the pressure on around the country, where it’s every weasel for himself, or herself. If those Members of Congress actually feel that there will be payback for this vote, they may start to get more reasonable, and forget about restructuring fully 1/6th of this country’s economy.
Pretty soon, the only green we’ll be seeing will be in the grocery store, if any us has enough money to buy food.
And speaking of green, we should all eat more of it. Green food…that is. We all know that green canned food (spinach) turned Popeye into a colossus. Today, kids would say he kicks ass. Now I’m not going to ask anyone to eat canned spinach…the whole idea actually seems vile…but you should be eating spinach, or one of its kizzin cuzzins, like kale, collards, Swiss chard, mustard greens, turnip greens, bok choy, or romaine lettuce.
Being a Brooklyn Boy, I’m not much on collards, or greens. But this is heresy, once you get south of Fredricksburg, Virginia, where they feel the same way about spinach. The good news in all this is that the health benefits are the same, and they are awesome.
Back in Popeye’s heyday it was all about iron. Popeye would down a can of spinach, and then go kick Bluto’s Uranus. That was the biggest and best nutrient, or so nutritionists thought. But today, we know that greens provide 250 nutrients, and maybe more.
One of the most important functions of greens has to do with your eyesight. Greens help to prevent macular degeneration, which is a growing disability among the elderly. If there is one thing you don’t want to lose, it’s your eyesight, and spinach and greens have been shown in many studies to help ward off this debilitating disease.
So, if you aren’t consuming any green food…you need to start adding it to your diet. If you’re squeamish, you can start with romaine lettuce, which hasn’t harmed anyone, as far as I know. Then maybe start mixing a little spinach in that salad. Kale can be used in soups, and our friend Emeril Lagasse has some very good recipes that utilize it, and they’re more than palatable.
We really need to “eat the rainbow,” as far as food is concerned, the more colors the better. But remember that green may be the most important color.
Don’t forget to combine “the rainbow” with my Powerhouse Omega Formula. The combination of “the rainbow” of vegetables, and fruits, with my ultra pure pharmaceutical grade fish oil, has a wonderfully synergistic effect on your health.

I watched the Sunday punditry parade on television today, and actually had a few laughs. It seems the Obamessiah had a bad week trying to sell the country on his health plan, which is beginning to become unraveled because of the costs. You’ll remember during the campaign that the main impetus for Obamacare was that he was going to cover everyone, and reduce the costs.
Now anyone who counts themselves as a thinking person knows that that position was hugely flawed from the gitgo. But many, including those who shouldn’t have, gave the Obamessiah a pass.
Then B.O. got elected, paid off all his buddies from Goldman Sachs, and thought he would hammer through another grandiose plan, before the summer was over. Never mind that no one has read the bill, or the fact that he and all Members of Congress are exempt from the plan.
The cry baby socialists of the Democratic Party want to ram a health care bill through, no matter what the consequences. And the consequences are grave, indeed. Having already spent bababillions on stimulus, they want to spend tatatrillions on health care, with no checks and balances.
The government record on health care is already abysmal (just look at Medicare, Medicaid, and the VA), and they want to give us more, taking a system that is second to none, and making it into voodoo. “Just trust us,” they say, and they are led by the same scoundrels who gave us the recession, the stimulus, and who now they want to give us bankruptcy.
When we’re all bankrupt, nobody will get anything, except old soviet-style care, which amounts to “nyet.”
It looks like many, who have been slumbering, are starting to wake up. If it isn’t too much trouble, call your congressman and Senator, and let them know you’re going to hold them accountable for their vote on Obamacare.
In the meantime, you need to take charge of your own health, making sure that you are not susceptible to all the diseases that are afflicting way too many of our fellow citizens.
Prevention is the new buzzword, and you can prevent many health problems, by the choices you make right now. Don’t ever think that it is too late, or that your body can’t recover, or experience good health.
Many problems can be fixed in a few weeks. Others can be fixed in months, but the main thing is, you must participate. You can do this by making better lifestyle choices, including eating better, getting more exercise, and using top notch supplements, such as those I have developed already, and will continue to develop.
The foundation for supplementation is my Powerhouse Omega Formula, an ultra pure, deep water, small fish, pharmaceutical grade fish oil, which is really a “WD 40″ for the human body (BTW, the key ingredient in WD 40 IS fish oil…if you didn’t already know that). The list of benefits associated with high grade fish oil is truly mind boggling. It benefits almost every area of the body, and new studies find new benefits, all the time.
With my special formula, which includes a high tech enteric coating, you don’t have to worry about the fishy smell, or the dreaded fish burps. The Powerhouse Omega Formula has a flowery lemon scent, and the enteric coating sends the soft gels all the way to your intestines, before they dissolve gently into your system, without any backwash.
Customers are unanimous in their opinion of the Powerhouse Omega Formula: It really works!
Do yourself a favor and get started making those all important lifestyle changes, today.

This morning, I was trying to remember exactly when the government first warned about the dangers of smoking. And it may actually have been before I started medical school, about forty some years ago. Back in those days, it wasn’t uncommon for a doctor to walk in to see you with a cigarette in his hand, and maybe light up another, while he told you what ailed you.
Unfortunately, a lot of medical people still smoke, which is a really bad example to be setting. But go around to the side doors of any hospital and you’ll see people in scrubs, still lighting up.
Lousy diet, smoking, too much booze, and no exercise add up to about 70% of all the health care problems in the country. And in the worst example of all, the President is a closet smoker, who is going to reform the system (HA!).
You take bad lifestyle choices and pair them up with the indiscriminate prescribing of the most popular drugs, and you have taken a molehill and made it into a mountain.
Did you realize that pharmaceutical grade fish oil has been shown all over the world to be Nature’s most potent and effective anti-inflammatory agent? There are thousands of studies to prove this.
In spite of this mountain of evidence…drugs outsell fish oil by 100 to 1.
Yet drugs have never cured a single person of depression, hypertension, arthritis, or even headaches.
Yes, you would be better off taking fish oil than Tylenol, Advil, or many prescription painkillers.
Not only that, but many prescription (and even OTC) drugs have serious side effects, often requiring the use of yet another drug, to counter the side effects of the first drug (which may have another side effect, itself).
Taking an ultra pure, pharmaceutical grade fish oil, like my Dr. Bill’s Powerhouse Omega Formula, is a much more natural way to treat depression and mood disorders, high blood pressure, and inflammatory pain. And that doesn’t even count its outstanding, proven heart and brain healthy properties, that protect against heart attacks and strokes. Fish oil is not a drug, and has no significant adverse side effects.
You also don’t have to worry about heavy metal toxicity, especially with my Powerhouse Omega Formula, which has been molecularly distilled, using advanced vacuum technology, insuring ultra pure oil. In addition to it’s pristine purity, my formula also contains the highest levels of EPA/DHA on the market.
Before your doctor puts you on some medication, that requires another medication, that may require still another medication, consider putting yourself on fish oil instead, which has innumerable benefits, and no significant down side.
You may find, like many others, that you won’t need that prescription medication. Or medications.

A couple of years back, I met a fitness guy at a seminar who advocated what he called “hill sprinting.” Needless to say he was about three, and possibly four, decades younger than yours truly. Now, at my age, hill sprinting is an occasional variation, to add spice to my exercise regimen. But the great thing about almost all exercise is that it’s very adaptable. I searched around for this guy’s card the other day and found it, so I gave him a call.
He recognized me almost immediately, and we traded information on what we were doing, and so on and such forth.
Then, I asked him a few questions about adapting his program for those of us who aren’t exactly world class athletes. I wanted to know what benefits and results you could get from hill walking, and much to my surprise, they weren’t much different from hill sprinting.
Now if you want to lose weight fast, and you are capable of very vigorous exercise (and impact), there is a big difference, but that’s not most of us. Hill sprinting will help you drop some big poundages, if you do it on a regular basis. But I caution you…this is something you need to work up to.
Hill walking, on the other hand, is something tha almost anybody can do. I certainly would suggest stretching your legs a bit, and even your back. And don’t try to climb Mt. Everest on your first attempt. Where I currently live, there happen to be a lots of hills, with a wide variety available, from gentle slopes to medium grade, and a few steep ones, here and there. I put together three different courses, by a simple drive in my car, mapping out all the twists, turns, and climbs.
My beginner course consists entirely of gentle slopes.
The medium course has gentle slopes, and some intermediate climbs.
The tough course has both of the former, and a couple of hills that force you to work pretty hard.
My friend the trainer says he has all kinds of 50+ plus people on this kind of routine, and that they really enjoy this kind of walking. He even has a “TOB Club.” That stands for Tough Old Buzzards. All the members are 70+ and they meet and map out some hill walks that would leave many younguns in the dirt.
The great thing about hill walking is that it engages almost all the muscles in the body in a number of different ways, that you don’t get when walking a flat surface, or using a treadmill.
I highly recommend this form of exercise, but as with any other exercise…start slowly. If you take on some big hills too early, you’re going to wish you heeded my advice. Not to mention the throbbing you’ll be feeling, from some muscles you didn’t even know you had. And I don’t have a pain reliever in my arsenal… yet.
For regular aches and pains, along with soreness in your joints, you can take my Powerhouse Omega Formula, which can help to alleviate that kind of problem. But goodness gracious…get moving. Bodies were built to be in motion, and the longer you sit, the bigger problem you’re going to have.

As I ate my breakfast this morning I was thinking about what they taught us in medical school about nutrition. That would be a very slim book indeed, and might not even fill a few pages. The truth is that in those days nobody thought nutrition was all that important, and a good deal of the medical problems we face today are the result of that attitude.
Somewhere along the line, medical thinking started to shift, but it really wasn’t until those outside the medical community began making a lot of noise that anything was done at all. The thinking was that we should all have been on a low fat diet, which turned out to be disastrous.
That line of reasoning came out of the Harvard Medical School, and wasn’t challenged for close to 40 years. It still has many adherents today, even though we now know that it doesn’t work.
I’ve come up with a few rules to make nutrition a little easier for you:
1. Eat every 2-3 hours. This doesn’t have to be a full meal, but you should take in some food, 6-8 times a day.
2. Eat complete, lean protein every time you eat. I’m not saying eat half a chicken here, just ingest a small amount, as little as 1 ounce of protein, like sliced turkey breast.
3. Eat a vegetable every time you eat. This is in addition to the protein, and every once in a while you can throw in a little fruit. But if you’re going to eat protein, don’t skip the vegetable.
4. If you’re going to eat a carbohydrate that isn’t a fruit or vegetable (pasta, rice, taters, couscous) …save it until after you exercise.
5. 25-30% of your diet must come from fat. Yes, you heard me right. There are three types of fat: saturated (that is, fully saturated), monosaturated, and polyunsaturated. Saturated fat comes from animals. Monosaturated fats come from nuts, olives, canola and olive oil. Polyunsaturated fat comes from nuts, and fish oil. (Like my ultra pure, pharmaceutical grade fish oil, the Powerhouse Omega Formula.) Eating all three fats, in a healthy balance, can improve your health.
6. Ditch the sugar drinks, including fruit juice, and diet sodas, too. Drink water, water, water, and some green tea.
7. Focus on unprocessed, natural foods.
8. You can cheat 10%. 90% of the time you follow the rules, 10% you don’t. This where most diets fail. Nobody can stay on the straight and narrow 100% of the time. So enjoy your cheating (that’s about 4 meals a week, based on eating six times a day).
9. Develop a food strategy. Plan how you’re going to eat. You can even plan your cheating.
10. Balance your food. Some food will be very, very simple. Make things easy on yourself. Avoid making nutrition complex.
Remember what the Italians say: “Great ingredients, very little fuss, simple cooking, means great food.”

I was sitting in my recliner reading this morning, and then I decided to catch up on the news on television. I landed on an epidode of “The Simpson’s,” and stayed there for a few minutes.
“The Simpson’s” has been on for 20 years, or more, and I think I may have seen 20 or so episodes, or maybe 5% of the total. It’s a very funny show, but other than the news, I don’t get in a lot of viewing time. At the moment I have 5 or 6 projects going, and that’s in addition to my “honeydooze.”
In this particular episode, Marge tells Homer they have to get a new couch, and Homer is annoyed because he just got his “ass groove” worked into the couch, and a new couch means he’ll have to start over. This is undoubtably the epitome of lazy, and as we all know, Homer is the King of Lazy.
Hopefully, no one mistakes Homer for a role model.
He’s missing out on something vitally important to his health, which is exercise.
For the great majority of people, moderate exercise is what you need. For a smaller percentage, higher intensity exercise would bein their best interests. Almost anyone can exercise, even if you are confined to a chair, or have a disability.
There are 7 real benefits to exercise.
1. Exercise helps your body function efficiently. It improves the tone and quality of muscle tissue and stimulates the processes of digestion, absorption, metabolism, and elimination. It also helps you develop physical grace, poise, balance and symmetry, and aids in the correction of posture and the healing of injuries.
2. Exercise improves your cardiovascular fitness. Exercise strengthens the blood vessels, the lungs and the heart, improving the transfer of oxygen to the cells and increasing the circulation of the lymphatic system.
3. Exercise increases metabolism. Regular exercise will exponentially improve your ability to effectively utilize calories, reduce fat, and build muscle.
4. Exercise helps manage your mood: it releases endorphins, chemicals in your brain that elevate mood. Regular exercise will also increase self esteem, and improve your mental outlook.
5. Exercise helps to relieve stress. It’s a powerful tool for releasing tension, and combating stress. Any kind of exercise takes the edge off physical, mental, and emotional tension.
6. Exercise helps you avoid, or decrease muscle atrophy and osteoporosis. Most people think that muscle loss and loss of bone density are inevitable with age. This isn’t true. Strength training will reverse the effects of muscle loss, and keep bones strong.
7. Exercise burns calories. Regular exercise, as little as 4 times a week for just 45 minutes, can provide you with enough caloric utilization for immediate fat loss and it keeps your metabolism revved up for the next 24 hours, or more, so you continue to lose, even at rest.
Exercise also increases insulin sensitivity, lowers total cholesterol, raises HDL (good) cholesterol, decreases your risks for many types of cancer, and decreases blood pressure.
It also decreases the size of your “ass groove.”
By combining exercise with good food, and by taking my Powerhouse Omega Formula, an ultra pure pharmaceutical grade fish oil, you’re on your way to better health, and a longer, more active life.
Our friend Homer is funny, but he sure isn’t healthy. Only cartoon slobs survive his lifestyle.

Since the inception of Favorite Formulas, we have focused almost exclusively on what can be done to benefit the heart. We have four products in production now, and one more coming, in what will become the Ultimate Heart Insurance Package.
https://www.favoriteformulas.com
Surveys that we’ve done indicate that the top priority among all our subscribers, after the heart, is the brain, and that they would like products that help with improving brain function, memory loss, help prevent Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia. This is also a huge priority among the partners, who have first-hand experience with Alzheimer’s in their families, and who have seen the effects of the disease, up close and personal.
Alzheimer’s is a disease that is skyrocketing all over the world, but particularly in the highly industrialized world. The cost of Alzheimer’s in the United States alone is well over $100 billion dollars annually, and it’s rising every year.
There is some good news here, and it comes from three different continents. Studies done at King’s College in London, the Dutch National Health Institute, and the University of North Carolina, all show that the consumption of omega-3 fatty acids can prevent age-related cognitive decline.
Emiliano Albanese, the head of the research team from King’s College states: “We showed for the very first time a statistically significant trend toward a lower prevalence of dementia among those with a higher dietary fish intake in large population based samples of older people living in five countries in Latin America, China, and India.
Our results extend findings on the associations of of fish consumption with dementia risk to populations in low and middle income countries and are consistent with mechanistic data on the neuroprotective omega-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids commonly found in fish.”
Let me translate that:
Consuming an ultra pure pharmaceutical grade fish oil may reduce your chances of contracting Alzheimer’s and dementia by 20%. The three universities are actively engaged in continuing this study, with respect to brain health, and say they will have much to report in the future.
This study was the largest ever undertaken, and involved over 15,000 people on three continents.
The bottom line is this: The more omega-3′s you get in your diet, the better off you are.
The researchers focused their study on the brain, because all other studies had previously focused on cardiovascular health, with good results.
It wouldn’t surprise me if, before all this research is completed, we will have definitive proof that fish oil is one of the greatest preventatives ever developed.

Since I’ve been talking about buffet molesters for a couple of days, I’ll go ahead and finish out the week with more on the subject.
Consider it a fat attack, or more aptly put, an attack on fat, which is a serious health problem. Being fat is no good at any age, but it becomes particularly troublesome after the age of 35, when we start to lose muscle mass.
Did you realize…if you are 35, or older…that if you don’t don’t do any kind of resistance training, and still eat the same amount of food as always… you are going to start gaining weight?
That’s because your body is starting to lose muscle, and that muscle is being replaced by fat. It can start slowly, or in the case of competitive athletes, come on rather suddenly, when they stop playing whatever sport they were engaged in.
For athletes, who are used to eating big, this sudden drop off in exercise can produce a startling weight gain in a very short period of time.
With the rest of us, it’s a little more gradual. But we all end up carrying too much fat, unless we do something to prevent it.
This is why exercise is so very important. Exercise can stop, significantly reduce, or even reverse muscle loss, which helps to burn fat and keep the blubber off. It also helps to keep your metabolism high, and to reduce stress, both physical and mental.
Contrary to popular opinion, you don’t get the best benefit by doing long cardio sessions, or by running. In fact, if you do a little non-scientific study at your local gym, you’ll see that the people who are really fit don’t log hours on the treadmill, or stairmaster. They do resistance training, and a little cardio, mostly to warm up.
Now, if you don’t want to lift weights, or use weight machines, you can get equal or better benefits doing bodyweight exercise, and you will never risk injury.
Coenzyme Q10 can also increase your muscle performance, anywhere from 10 to 30 percent, and it also protects your muscles from oxidative stress. CoQ10 helps to convert glucose to ATP, the main source of energy, that powers all cellular functions.
The biggest problem with CoQ10 is finding a source can deliver the CoQ10 in a manner that your body can absorb. At Dr. Bill’s Favorite Formulas, I’ve solved that problem, and you actually get the amount of CoQ10, promised on the label.
http://www.favoriteformulas.com/CoQ10formula
As I mentioned above, exercise is key for getting rid of the blubber…and keeping off. It does this by increasing your metabolic rate, so that your body burns energy at a higher rate than if you didn’t exercise at all. And that increased metabolism stays increased for 24-48 hours.
Secondly, it helps reduce your appetite for self-destruction, which is to say, overeating. By stripping off the fat, you reduce the physical stress on your frame, and joints, as well as the cumulative mental stresses of the day. It’s a great way to reduce anxiety and depression, too.
So, whenever you’re seized by the urge to flop down on the couch, do some exercise, instead. Just 10 minutes will give you big health benefits.

Over the weekend I bore witness to a “growing phenomenon”, and I mean that literally. Saturday, when I did a lot of walking at a large event, I was astounded several times by the size of some of the “spare tires” and “derierres.” A few of the hindquarters of those present had to be “a couple of ax handles wide”…and then some. Some of the spare tires could have been hot air balloons.
I don’t remember this kind of thing in my youth. I mean…occassionally, we would run into a fat guy, but compared to some of today’s lardassians, I’m not sure they would be classified as fat. But what was really amazing in my observation was whole families of fat: Mom, Dad, the kids, all fat. The kind of fat that takes up three seats in the doctors office, per person (I’m joking, but not much).
These folks are medical time bombs, especially the kids. But like someone once said, “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.” Except this kind of flattery is going to kill them.
I followed one woman around for about twenty minutes, and she stopped, bought, and consumed enough sweets to stock a bakery shelf. Sugar, sugar, sugar, and more sugar.
She obviously is not reading my emails about what I think is the # health threat in the United States, and judging by all those in the same shape, she ain’t alone.
Nothing screws up your body function like too much sugar. It’s the same as if your were standing in tar up to your waste and then, were asked to run. You would like to do it, but you can’t. That is what’s happening inside your body, when you feed it the wrong foods.
In the computer industry, they say when you input bad data, you get a lousy result. Your body is no different. If you keep jamming all that prepacked crapola down your piehole, sooner or later your body goes on the fritz, just like a car whose oil has never been changed.
The other thing is, even though lardassians eat up more than their share of turf, they are almost always malnourished, and suffer from extremely low levels of essential fatty acids. They are deficient in many other vital nutrients too, a list that could sometimes take up an entire page. Sugar blocks the function of many of the most important centers in your body.
But being deficient in essential fatty acids, such as the EPA/DHA contained in my Powerhouse Omega Formula, makes your brain “skinny,” and that isn’t a good thing. It makes your brain start to go haywire, and pretty soon, the messages it is sending out are not in your best interest. You can experience severe mood swings, violent urges, depression, brain fog, and a truckload of mental health issues.
One of the messages your brain will be sending out is: I need more sugar! And as a result, it becomes impossible to lose weight, as you consume more and more junk.
Taking pharmaceutical grade fish won’t make you Miss America (or Mr. America) overnight, but without it, you will just keep growing. Many people who have tried losing weight for years, without success, have succeeded when they got the right amount of essential fatty acids in their system. They had success then, because their brains started functioning better, and started sending the right messages.
So be a Fathead, and get your brain what it wants and needs. You know your car runs so much better with clean oil, and your brain, and body, is no different.
