The Rise of Modern Blindness

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is currently the leading cause of irreversible blindness in the Western world. Mainstream ophthalmology treats this condition with expensive pharmaceutical eye injections or synthetic vitamin formulas, viewing it as an unfortunate byproduct of getting older.

But before Dr Chris Knobbe pivoted to full-time nutritional research, he was a board-certified general ophthalmologist for 24 years. He asked a radical historical question: Why was macular degeneration practically non-existent in the 19th and early 20th centuries?

Through his non-profit, the Cure AMD Foundation, Dr Knobbe proved that AMD is not an inevitable genetic consequence of aging. It is a diet-induced metabolic disease of the retina caused by the exact same culprit destroying our guts and our brains: industrial seed oils.

The Retinal "Rusting" Event

Your retina has one of the highest metabolic demands and oxygen-consumption rates of any tissue in the entire human body. This makes it a primary target for lipid peroxidation:

  • The Toxic Accumulation: When you eat a diet heavy in canola, corn, or soybean oil, these unstable fats accumulate directly in the photoreceptors of your eyes.

By Dr James M. Greenblatt M.D - Psychology Today 2011

HERE'S A GOOD ARTICLE TO STRENGTHEN THE ARGUMENT THAT Cholesterol Is Our Friend, Not Our Enemy AND STATINS AREN'T SUCH A GOOD IDEA LIKE THEY'RE PURPORTED TO BE. IN FACT, THERE ARE SEVERAL ARTICLES ON THE NET THAT REPORT THEM TO BE A MEDICAL SCAM AND Big Pharma's Biggest Cash Cow! FOR MOST PEOPLE, WE NEED NOT BE CONCERNED ABOUT CHOLESTEROL, YET BIG PHARMA KEEPS PRESSING FOR MORE and MORE "Patients" ON THEIR STATIN DRUGS With Very Uncomfortable and sometimes Serious Side Effects. PLUS, DID YOU NOTICE THAT BIG PHARMA KEEPS Lowering The Bar, What They Say Our Cholesterol Should Be In Recent Years? So Obvious. A NATURAL HEALTH PROFESSIONAL COULD SERVE YOU BETTER. YES REALLY!

Low Cholesterol is Linked to Depression, Suicide, and Violence

Mark, a 43 year-old executive, saw his doctor for his annual physical. Reviewing his laboratory tests, the doctor noted that Mark's total cholesterol level was for the first time over 200mg/dL.

As a preventative measure the doctor prescribed a statin, a class of cholesterol-lowering drugs. His cholesterol levels declined, but so did his mood. Mark was now struggling with anxiety and depression.…

Published on Leave a comment on A Comprehensive List Of Affects Sugar Has In Our Brain and Body at Different Ages

Firstly it is important for everyone to know these things about sugar before some Info I'm going to give you.....that sugar is NOT a 'Natural Food'.....But we should STAY CLEAR of the likes of Aspartame, Splenda, Sweet n Low, Erythritol AND Other Sweeteners that are 10x more damaging to our health.

Sugars including white, brown and 'raw sugar' and even some 'organic' actually undergo a Synthetic Process that separates the chemical bonds of the syrup found in sugar cane. The sugar crystals are actually manufactured through heating and mechanical and chemical processing that leaves it void of any nutrients....that applies to ALL sugars above. This finished product called sugar_ white, raw OR organic is anything but natural and in fact it is classed by true professionals as a toxic substance and an addictive drug with an Anti-Nutrient affect in our body …..compromising our physical health in ways we are not always aware of and damaging to Brain and Nerve Cells over time.

DID YOU KNOW THAT SUGAR SHUTS DOWN THE IMMUNE SYSTEM FOR 4 - 6 HOURS?

AND IT STRESSES YOU OUT SO YOU GO FOR MORE SUGAR. WHAT A DOUBLE WHAMMY!?…

YOU WILL ALL DO WELL TO READ REAL FACTS ABOUT THESE 3 GOVERNING BODIES BECAUSE OF THE EVIDENCE AGAINST THEM. SORRY TO TELL YOU THE THIRD ONE (TGA) IS ACTUALLY AUSTRALIAN. ALL THESE THINGS GO ON "Behind Our Backs" SO IT'S FOOLISH TO PUT TOO MUCH TRUST IN THEM. OK?

My Search Questions are in RED to stand out for your Convenience.

I would like to have a List of Natural Health Advocates
who Caution people about the FDA as being Corrupt, thanks.

Prominent figures and health organizations frequently criticize the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These critics argue that the agency has deep systemic corruption, regulatory capture, and conflicts of interest with major food and pharmaceutical corporations.

The primary natural health advocates, independent researchers, and consumer watchdogs who publicly caution the market about the FDA include:

Natural Health Advocates & Independent Authors

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

Concerning the LIES and False Reports that are maintained about Popular Sweeteners to this day, due to Lobbyers from Manufacturers who have lots of Influence on Dietitians and Governments alike, you can forget All that you have been previously told.

As a Researcher many years now, I find a few Medical Websites like Healthline and Others Notorious for having some Very Good Information - which Medicos don't practice anyway because Big Pharma won't let them - and some Very Bad Information that Medicos are deliberately taught to believe. It is an established fact they get ALL their Education from Big Pharma (Medical drug Related) in fact some MD/GPs who have left the Medical Establishment out of conscience report they were only given 3 Hours in Total on Nutrition in their 4 Years of Training. So such Websites like Healthline and WebMD for instance, are a VERY MIXED BAG if you "don't have Your Wits about You" and Know what you're Looking For. Do be informed.

And "respected" Harvard University researchers published their Sugar Industry-Backed Literature review in 1967.…

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

Yes don't trust the Sweetener Either Folks, because even Organic Companies have fallen for this Trap when it was Marketed as "Natural" a Safe Alternative to Artificial Sweeteners like Aspartame and Splenda etc. Personally, through pretty strong Instincts, I was wary of it for a very long time. And the thing is, it's even used in all the Kombuchas that are sold out there.

No, it's Not Natural, like "almost anything else out there" in the Supermarkets (figure of speech) and I have etc data on it than I've already given you previously. Like I've said, those Health Companies some Organic Companies included, should not have taken things on Face Value - they should have Practiced Due Diligence!

The Erythritol Loophole in "Healthy" Beverages

Food conglomerates have masterfully weaponised terms like "all-natural" and "zero sugar" to pivot health-conscious consumers toward over-processed, shelf-stable liquids. [1, 2]

  • Commercial Kombuchas: While authentic kombucha requires real cane sugar to feed the live bacteria culture, many massive commercial brands (such as Remedy Kombucha and Nexba) let the brew ferment completely bone-dry until no sugar remains.
