It is the synergistic combination of all the toxins that are now in our environment that are leading to all these pleiotropic health issues. That's very hard to study. So we have to get our heads out of our ass and use our common sense and realize what's going on and not wait 10 years with these, you know, NIH-funded studies that are going to be corrupted. And, you know, I think...

That's just one thing about the food chemicals. I just wanted to add to your point, Cal, some other dates. You look at the processed food emergence. Processed food really didn't start taking off until these mergers. There was a little bit of a start of it. Ultra-processed foods did not exist before World War II.

And we needed to have shelf-stable food for soldiers and things like that that we could ship, and so there were maybe some good intentions there. But then there was an opportunity there that got seen. And we can also weaponize the feminist movement against, oh, being in the kitchen, you're a slave. Your value is outside the home. You need to climb the corporate ladder.

Here, have this convenience food that we basically made for soldiers, and we're going to tell you that this is actually your liberation. So, of course, we got people not cooking. Families aren't eating together anymore. Like, you know, kids are eating 67% of children's calories now are ultra-processed foods. These means foods that come from a factory made by food scientists.

Not just processed, ultra-processed, the highest form of processing, 67% of calories. Then you go to the 1970s, and we have the advent of high-fructose corn syrup, which, as Callie talks about, this preceded some of the mergers. But high-fructose corn syrup is a weapon of mass destruction that basically food scientists used in understanding about hibernating animals, like bears.

who, fructose is one of the only types of calories where instead of making you feel satiated, it makes you more hungry. And this is evolutionarily, and we knew this. In the fall, when animals are preparing for hibernation and they start eating fructose-rich berries, they need to put on a ton of fat for winter.

And so there's a feed-forward mechanism with fructose where it actually gets the bears to be hungry and even violent. to out-compete other animals to get as many berries as possible in a short period of time, to lay 3D print fat for winter.
