of plastics in your blood on like certain hormonal processes so like over time it's screwing up some of our hormones and the effects of plastic stuff are epigenetic they actually basically alter the your gene expression in your body and that can stack one generation after another so you get 10 messed up by the plastics that 10 is inherited by your kids you get another 10 percent

And that could easily explain why so many things we see are accelerating. They're continuing over time. The reason I would always criticize people who say... I totally agree with that. A lot of the stuff that people blame on causing autism, for example... It doesn't necessarily make sense because it should be like a light switch where we did this and then it doubled overnight.

Whereas stuff like allergies, stuff like autism, it's that it's just going up every single year on a pretty linear basis. And for something like that to be happening, I think you need some sort of constant environmental factor that's like shoving itself in. And so it's probably not like seed oils where it's just a constant thing or, you know, this or that shot that people have decided is to blame.

So... i think it's pretty interesting like i think the best use of rfk is if we were to just go all out on let's fund as much study of this as we possibly can let's produce as much science as we possibly can as opposed to what i think a lot of people are tempted to do where they basically want to impulsively ban certain things or you know people want money for this or that thing like

There are people who are going to want to use Maha to just mean you can use Medicare or Medicaid to pay for homeopathic medicine. And I think that would be a mistake. I don't think we should use taxpayer dollars to buy flavored water for people, but it could happen.

Yeah, I'm not 100% alien to it. What I always worry about is there's a line that is attributed to G.K. Chesterton. He didn't literally say it, but we'll get behind it. Where it's like, an atheist isn't someone who believes in nothing. It's a person who believes in anything. Once you become an atheist, you'll just believe in anything. And I worry that that is something that can happen with...

the health stuff in general it's like COVID happened it was really disgraceful all the health experts acquitted themselves very badly for the most part and some people have reacted to that by going they lied to us about that so they're lying about everything and I don't trust the doctors the only person I can trust is you know this this like weird guy I found on the internet and all of that and

I would encourage people to be more skeptical of that than they often are because I think it can lead to unfortunate outcomes. But I do think it's very real. People are right to look at the way things are and say, this isn't normal. Like, kids...

they actually are not way less active today than they were 20 years ago yet they are fatter than they were 20 years ago they are more depressed than they were 20 years ago they are exhibiting weird medical problems we were looking at that article just today that the rate of uh kind of precocious cancers people getting cancer under 50 years old went way way up between 1990 and 2019

And if you're looking, what's the obvious change that happens between 1990 and 2019? I'm not sure there is one. And people are just freaking out about it. And I think they're right to do that.

But I think the correct focus should be increase our level of knowledge as much as possible as opposed to playing whack-a-mole where we decide, oh, actually, like, Red 40 is the thing that's going to kill all of us, so ban it immediately. Yeah. I mean, if they want to, I'm sure they will. But I don't think it's going to be the kill shot that makes us all healthy.
