... and I told him, no. Then, he asked me if I was planning on getting it, and I said, no. To my way of thinking, this should have been the end of the conversation, but it wasn't. He then asks me what was stopping me from getting the vaccine. So, I started out easy with him and said, "Well, legally, this isn't even a vaccine." He agreed and went into the mRNA explanation. A little nervous laughter punctuated what he was saying. Then I mentioned how this was only given experimental approval from the FDA and not full approval. More nervous laughter and more agreement. I thought this would end the conversation, but he kept pressing me, which was beginning to annoy me. I assured him I had done my research and I didn't like what I had discovered. He wanted to know even more, so I dropped the MOAB on him. I told him I knew all about the NIH and Fauci working on gain of function research and then sending the experiment overseas to the Wuhan lab...and that I was aware of all of this LAST YEAR. Now, I got some very nervous laughter from the doctor.
And, just like that.....BOOM!....he immediately changed the subject.
Olive oil consumed in large quantities possibly can be harmful as it does linger in your system and it can impact cardiovascular health. But as others have said there are other factors too like the rest of the diet. sleep and exercise.
Like I said in another post a lot of 100 century mark Italians and Greeks live that long consuming olive oil so it isn't that harmful. But it is still important to know the benefits and risks.
The "wine" that we make and drink in Greece is nothing like the stuff you buy elsewhere. In fact I've seen tourists spit it out because it doesn't taste like commercial wines. Definitely an acquired taste because it doesn't have the usual additives such as antifreeze.
Real quality wine from France, Italy and Greece is very, very different than what is sold in the US so I agree on that.
