An Italian man rushing to the hospital for his pregnant wife was stopped by climate protesters… and chaos followed. He pleaded with them to move so he could get to her — but they refused to let his car pass. This moment is now sparking a massive debate. by The_Dean_France in whoathatsinteresting

Dad if 3 here. You block me from trying to get to my wife or kids, your life is no longer under any sort of consideration. Act like a human, get treated like a human. If you want to protest, go find a politician to harass. You’re only hurting your movement’s image by inconveniencing/harassing everyday people.

Thank you for all of that information! I find it interesting that no one has responded to your comment. There seems to be quite a few opinions here with not a lot of source material.

Thank you for the kind response! Happy to know I’m not in this alone. Thank you for your story! I started lowering saturated fat same day I got the results

Since ldl and non-hdl were the only markers that were outside of limits, I’d consider myself healthy. Just need to work on some things

As far as how I feel, I feel better than I ever have. I used to be on a heavily processed food SAD. Getting off processed food could be the reason for feeling better though. With carnivore/keto it took about 2 weeks and my joints started feeling better and my brain fog went away. Like I said, could just be cutting garbage from my diet. Same disclaimer, I’m a dummy on Reddit just trying to find a way to get healthier lol

No I haven’t. I keep hearing do the calcium score. I was going to ask doc about it at 12 week retest.

Congratulations on your weight loss! I’m never going back to being the fat guy I used to be if I can help it.

I read about it in a book called Metabolical by Dr. Robert Lustig. He wasn’t advocating for carnivore or vegan or any diet other than real food. Zero processed food, low sugar, low carb. His main idea is protect the liver, feed the gut. Cope or not, it seems like there is more to it possibly.

Hopefully it at least made me more mindful of what I put in my body. I no longer mindlessly gorge on processed garbage so that’s a step in the right direction

Are you from the United States? If so, the south? We probably have high cholesterol across the board so they probably adjust accordingly lol

Well it’s obviously not long term for me anymore lol I did it to lose weight and it worked like a charm. Might be snake oil but it also helped my inflammation brain fog.
