My rate might be outdated...since Covid I'd say 100% too! It seemed a long time ago there was some lip service to eating fruits and vegetables and fresh air and exercise...that's all racist now or something...
You're right about the fresh air and exercise (at least some), so I guess we can say, 98%? Lol!
Fruits and veggies are iverrated. We evolved primarily as meat eaters. 20,000 years ago there were no big, juicy, sweet apples, or crunchy sweet carrots, or tasty lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. No low fiber/high starch potatoes or sweet potatoes or cassava, etc. Veggies were mostly small, tough (fibrous), bitter, strong-flavored, and toxic! Berries were edible, but most fruit was small and not very sweet, with a lot of seeds or pulp. Plants were last-resort "famine food", since we don't have the liver enzymes to detoxify most plant toxins, nor the very large gut for fermenting fibrous plant material as do chimps and gorillas.
A moderate amount of soluble fiber is good for our microbiome, but not essential.
And considering that 88% of Americans are insulin resistant and are already eating too much carbohydrate, fruits and starchy veggies just add to the overload, causing hyperinsulinemia, and eventually pre-diabetes and diabetes.
I've heard about the remarkable changes that have happened to cultivated fruits and vegetables in the past 500 years or so, but I doubt it's been a big part of the story in tropical areas like Thailand. I suspect there were plenty of coconuts, mangosteen, jackfruit, papaya and the like for many centuries. I do limit my carbohydrates though...
Agriculture started after the last major Ice Age, about 10,000 or 12,000 years ago. All cutivated fruit have been selected by humans, with the probable exception of coconuts. Are there wild jackfruit? I'm sure papayas have been selected for a very long time, because there are so many varieties and they reproduce so fast. Virtually all temperate tree fruits are highly selected, except perhaps for mulberries, though there are named varieties of those, too.
The evolutionary purpose of eating fruit (primarily available in the fall in temperate climates) was for putting on fat for the winter from the consumption of the fructose they contain. (Metabolized to fat in the liver, causing fatty build-up, insulin resistance and subsequent weight gain.)
That makes sense regarding the seasonal pattern and insulin resistence. Anything that ends with "berry" doesn't seem very native to Thailand. They grow some here now, like strawberry, whose Thai name, "strawberry," gives away that it was imported in later. A quick google search says jackfruit has been cultivated in India 3000 to 6000 years ago. Right now there's more of it around than we can eat from our three trees...

The Ethiopian Orthodox Church's Bible has the most books, including the Book of Enoch. They are followed by the Eastern Christian Orthodox (Greek, Russian etc) and the Roman Catholic.
The Catholic Church is the OG, founded by the apostles. Hence St. Peter's Basilica.
When Luther Martin rebelled against the Catholic Church in the 1500's, he discarded several books.
Personally I consider myself an Orthodox Catholic and I attend the Traditional Latin Mass, not the modernist Novus Ordus. I rather attend an Eastern Christian Orthodox Church if there are no TLM near me because they follow centuries old tradition. I don't like the kumbaya modern worship. I find it to be heretical.
He's also written a book called The Unseen Realm. You will read the Bible with better understanding after listening to this and/or reading his book. It puts more things in context.
I sent that one Biblical HAVE A LOOK meme to my cousin. She wrote back that her Bible study group took the list on as a project and found that it was 100% accurate. Here's what she said:
Our Bible group tonight went through each of these in many different versions. We agree on all these and our results found that the KJV, NKJV, ASV, HCSB and the AMP were all in complete form. The rest that we all had available (reading each verse) were missing or referred to “ancient script included the following…” usually in footnotes. Some left a hole in the scripture which was obvious skipping and other versions just looked like normal but the numbers would be like 1,2,3,5,6,8,…. So if you weren’t watching the numbers you wouldn’t know something had been skipped....
Anyway some interesting scripture was left out and the bigger question is WHY? We all decided to see if we could find out who what and why these key verses were omitted.
Thanks for sending. It made the study very fun and interactive in reading and discussing.
I'm going to suggest same project for the current Bible study group that I am in - after we are done with current topic. Interesting - thanks for including it.
I love you Amy. I just want you to know you are appreciated and loved. Thank you for sharing your amazing experiences, your strength and heart. Thank you for the laughter you spread with your memes.
NEVER duck!
HAHAHAHAHA!!
Thank you Amy!
LOL their autocorrect didn't catch the second apostrophe in it's...but I still chuckled. ;-)
"I’ve often said if you do the exact opposite of official health guidance, you’ll be right about 90% of the time. That’s a good win rate!"
No! It is closer to 100% of the time! When is ANY advice from the government good???

In the original 1611 KJV Bible, Jesus was printed as IESVS because the letters "J" and "U" had not been accepted yet.

Joe Tzu May act the part of incompetentency but he knows exactly what he does.
Duck!!! Joe zen is about to speak. Do the exact opposite of the official narrative eat your eggs and butter your toast and gaze at the sun and always
Ignore the experts who claim the run away train
Is again off the tracks. Money grows on trees
That get plucked by retelling history.
Money grows on trees that get plucked by retelling history. LOL!
Lol unfortunately the fruit they pick and create just never goes to the people who need it most.
I got to investigate all those Bible quotes
That were removed. Will do so later.
Reading Joshua now. The day he told the sun and moon to stand still. Joshua 10: 12-14
Realizing each Bible is bit different but
The old ones I have may have those
Words.
Happy Trails and thanks for your beautiful sense of humor!!
As long as the fake alien invasion is something akin to Battle Los Angeles I'll be alright.
Living a lifestyle counter to whatever health narrative they push out has so many benefits.
