Reading books, among other things, keeps us educated and knowledgeable. Lifting weights keeps us strong and healthy. And we must stand up to authoritarian-leaning politics, defend democracy, and push back against hateful, ignorant ideologies — all of which can be done without violence.

Nutrition influencers love making long lists of "toxic" foods/ingredients. Here's the truth: the only foods worth avoiding are spoiled, unsafe, or ones you just simply don't like. Don't let unnecessary fear from social media influencers impact your nutrition choices.

There is no high-quality human evidence that supports the idea that the ingredients being demonized here (like synthetic dyes, seed oils, or artificial flavors) are harmful when consumed in realistic amounts and are going to "MAHA".
