1. PSA: To those in the Solari community who may be flirting with the idea of consuming the “Impossible Burger” plant-based meat substitute: the biotechnology firm for whom I am employed was intimately involved in the engineering of the product. During our finagling to mesh our technology (based upon a specialized property referred to as Maillard reaction, which gives the substance what appears to be char marks from heat), it occurred to us the plant substance consumed far more of the sugar during the production runs than calculated. It was determined the engineered proteins have a very high affinity for pentose sugars, such as those in DNA, RNA, ATP, and NAD (not an exhaustive list). Additionally, when the proteins in purified form are titrated into a culture of cells, the heat and EM signatures indicated the breaking of specifically non-covalent structures (think Gerald Pollack here). No one is asking any questions.

   1. Michael,
      Thanks for the heads up! There may be an informational component here- as the Pentose sugars in the DNA/RNA/ATP etc. are “downstream” from a VERY large evolutionary “field”. This is a huge source of energy! ALL of the engines of our civilizations are powered by evolved processes, which (IMHO) derive from a Higher Guidance. Cracking that code may be a required step in any transition to “trans-humanism”.

   2. This is quite remarkable. Outside of the concerns you raise, Moms Across America tested the Impossible Burger for glyphosate, the result was 11.3ppb. Quoting from their article on the results, “Only 0.1 ppb of glyphosate has been shown to alter the gene function of over 4000 genes in the livers, kidneys and cause severe organ damage in rats.” Yum.

      1. Good Lord!

   3. Thank you for the info!

      I’d rather not eat at all.

      However, a few months before the product was introduced I was noticing a huge marketing push for veganism. I live among many vegans and it is truly a religion for them. I was so disturbed by the phenomenon that I had to purchase Edward Bernays’ 2 books, Propaganda and Crystallizing Public Opinion. I could see the game after reading “Propaganda”. Creepy.

      It is being served at the local brewery for $14.50 a burger. Who would want to try it? That’s the same price for grass fed yak or beef. Ridiculous.

      1. In medical school, essentially every individual whom I managed, engaged in the use of a vegan or vegetarian diet for any length of time exhibited biomarkers of auto-immunity. These dietary schemes are useful in short spurts for detoxification, or to assist in the reversal of progression of chronic illness. But as a long term strategy, are deadly. Veganism is a fanatical ideology alleged to be grounded on empathy for life, however, the vehemence of its practitioners in their intolerance undermines the purported ethical grounds upon which it is constructed. It is a fetish. It is a subcategory of Liberalism the basis of which is the absence of anything prior; a strange place from which to construct any moral argument.

            Very well stated, Michael. Very succinct.

            The most rabid ideologues I have encountered… (well, at least prior to 2016 election) are self described “Vegans”. I have had what can only be described as vicious encounters with a few of these folks.

            Within the context of indigenous Chinese Medicine (pre-TCM/Cultural Revolution), these folks dietary rigidity would be a considerable diagnostic vector suggesting serious imbalance! LOL!

            Of course… sure doesn’t take years of Chinese Medicine practice to see it. Militant veganism is actually a thing… and it’s whack!

            1. Some people have solved serious medical issues by going Vegan – and that is why they are very committed to it. In my experience, every person is unique and has to find their pathway – what works for them. I am loathe to tell anyone else what should work for them.

         2. How very eloquent and succinct. Agreed. Thank you.

            Have you listened to Catherine’s interviews with Sally Fallon or read Dr. Weston A. Price’s book Nutrition and Physical Degeneration? I think you may like them. Dr. Price searched the world over for a traditional society with a diet based on vegetarianism but was unable to find one. This was per-modernization. Or a better term would be pre- industrialization of their diets. It is just NOT viable.

            1. My specialty is (was) orthomolecular medicine and endocrinology, price is a staple in the former. Traditional society did not have the luxury of approaching consumption in such a narrow minded way. One ate what was in season and hence the diet was based upon a natural rotation of foodstuffs. The most common question people ask me in regard to diet is: “what about diet xxxxx.” No single approach to nutrition is sufficient so as to be optimal. If you are ill you will require certain foods. If you live at altitude you will require certain foods. If you live in the desert, or at sea level you will require certain foods. If you are preparing for long bouts of international travel you will require certain foods. At times, one will require little or no food; fasting is an excellent method of cleansing and detoxification, repair and rejuvenation of the systems taxed with processing modern industrial diets. I also recommend regular urban fasting and removal of oneself to a location with low radiation infrastructure.

            2. Michael:

               That is excellent advice.

   4. The official position is food shoppers = lab rats.

3. Catherine,

   Question, could people living in big cities like NYC can have sheriffs? As far as I know we got the NYPD and that’s it.

   Are sheriffs different from police forces?

5. I’m curious why our local Farmer’s Market (suburbs of Chicago) agreed to allow LINK/SNAP (food stamps/assistance) to now be accepted at the Farmer’s Market? LINK cards are filtered through and made by Chase. I applied for Housing assistance 15 plus years ago, out of college and unable to afford an apartment with a FT job…and just this week I receive the packet from our local HUD office and the documentation requested and what you sign over (your complete life and access to all your private information basically) is shocking. One thing is how long it took from being on a ‘waiting list’ to now all of a sudden I’m at the ‘top of the list’. I must ask myself Why? They gave me about 2 weeks or lose it. I’ve been a FT caregiver for both my parents (Dad Alzheimer’s and Mom Breast Cancer and chronic illnesses) and have not been able to work FT and care for them. Now that my Dad got ill with pneumonia, hospitalized and was getting better, was transferred to a SNF/Memory Care and he is now about to pass away. This all happened within a few weeks time. Something does not seem ‘right’ to me. Thank You for all you do, and great conversation w/ Dr. JPF. Thank You.

   1. This is fascinating. There many be a logic or algorithm, but I don’t know what it is. Keep collecting data!
