When you said CD = Change Directory, I went into a time warp. I bought my first PC in 1984. It had a massive 10 meg hard drive! I knew absolutely nothing about computers. Didn't even know anyone who had one. The computer came with a thick three-ring binder with the title, DOS. I read and reread and reread the entire book until it started to make sense. (The first version of Windows didn't come out until 1985.) In 1985, I bought an early copy of Symantec's Q&A, a (non-Windows) word processor, flat file, and report generator, which relied heavily on keystroke combinations to get things done but was hinting at a graphical interface. I ran a non-profit for many years with Q&A and loved it, such an improvement from WordStar. So, now at 72-years-old, to see CD = Change Directory, I say to myself, "Hey, I can do this." Thanks for a good tutorial.

I'm 75. Two years ago I was a miserable, unhealthy mess. Diabetes, arthritis, high blood pressure, brain fog, 40 extra pounds, and on and on. There was very little chance that I could physically defend myself without a force multiplier, if I could get to it fast enough. Then I changed my diet to the Carnivore way of eating. In these two years, all my ailments have disappeared. The other day I outworked a 40-year old who was helping me mix and pour concrete. Now I am nimble, alert, and energetic. Eat meat to get fit and strong! No one ever found a cave painting of a salad!

Dr. John, I'd like to see you do a video where "fully vaccinated" is replaced with "fully engaged in keeping oneself healthy." I'm in my 70s, have no diagnosis, and take no meds. I get good sleep, eat no inflammatory foods (sugars, carbs, seed oils & etc.), and exercise regularly. I am not living in fear and my stress levels are low. What are my chances of being hospitalized and/or dying compared to the majority of the population that eats the Standard American Diet, has comorbidities, and lives with high stress? I can't imagine that the CDC has ANY data on this, but I think metabolically-ill people are driving this pandemic!

Excellent video Dr. John. I keep telling this story. At 65, I was prediabetic, had high BP, was 30-pounds overweight, and had a ton of brain fog; so much so that I was considering stopping driving. At that time I switched to the Keto diet. Now at 73, all my maladies have reversed and gone away. I'm driving with ease now. Removing the inflammatory foods (sugars, grains, most carbs, and seed oils (corn, soy, canola, safflower, etc.) made a massive improvement in my health. I also take supplements, get a lot of sun, get good sleep, and of special mention, I take Black Seed. I am certain that Keto and my other new practices added better and more years to my life.

Thank you Dr. Marik. You and the FL Tripple C helped my family get through that bad couple of years with no illness and none of that thing in the arm. I didn't have cancer that I know of, but I did have T2 diabetes, high blood pressure, brain fog that was preventing me from driving, wicked arthritis, gum disease, 45-pounds overweight, and on and on. Cancer was on the horizon I am sure. I discovered Keto, and very soon after, the zero-carb Carnivore way of eating, which I have been doing for two-plus years now. I am happy to say that now at 75, I am diagnosis-free, medicine-free, and am enjoying excellent health and energy. I am driving with confidence and quick reflexes now. This way of eating even healed my leaky gut and 45-year multiple chemical sensitivities. I think it is all about the gut microbiome. I love this way of eating. I'll never go back to eating inflammatory plants with their oxalates, lectins, glutens, and many, many other toxins and anti-nutrients.

Thank you Dr. Campbell. This is an excellent synopsis of health vs. disease. The only quibble I have is about the old view of saturated fat. I changed from eating seed oils (canola, safflower, corn, soy, etc.) to eating saturated animal fats, coconut oil, and olive oil. My health changed dramatically for the better. Please take a look at the keto diet; there are many resources on YouTube such as Diet Doctor, Dr. Sten Ekberg, Dr. Berg, and Dr. Ken Berry. The standard American diet with seed oils is making us fat, diabetic, causing heart disease, cancer, and dementia; suffering from insulin resistance/metabolic syndrome. Please do some due diligence around saturated fat. Thanks. My wife and I have enjoyed watching your broadcasts throughout the entire pandemic!

@45graham45 I'll take this as a serious question. Why? How? Ninety-three percent of Americans are metabolically unwell. There is an epidemic of metabolic diseases; diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, ADHD, dementia, Alzheimer's, and etc. As we get older, the ailments begin to pile on top of each other and get worse. I was simply one of these people, but advanced in age. What I think is quite amazing about myself is that I still had the ability to critically analyze my situation and to change for the better. Yeah, it would have been better to have made the change when I was still in the womb, but this is what is. Peace.
There are several big reasons why people are unwilling/unable to make the necessary dietary changes. They are: 1: Sugar and carbohydrate and perhaps alcohol addiction -- and the difficulty in accepting the fact that they are addicted. 2: Malnutrition-Induced brain fog that prevents clear thinking. 3: Peer pressure. 4: Nutrition Ignorance -- many people simply don't know enough about what to eat an what not to eat, and many don't care to learn. 5: Government/Corporate Influence. Nuff said. 6: Family/Cultural Traditions. 7: Information overload -- there are many competing ways of eating; Standard American Diet, Vegetarian, Vegan, Paleo, Keto, Carnivore, Mediterranean, and on and on. How to choose? 8: One must be willing to buck the status quo and become a brave explorer. 9: Change is difficult. It's just too much work to sort through all the noise. These (and probably more) add up to a kind of paralysis that prevents change that would be personally beneficial.

As David said, we already have 50 state governments. I am an expat living in Panama, where there is the federal government, then provincial governments, then city and town governments. It seems to me that the reason for provincial governments is to more localized, more "in touch" high-level governing, which our individual 50 states are currently doing. I don't see the need to divide us officially by rich/poor, liberal/conservative, religious/non-religious, meat-eaters/vegans, and etc. I think the more we are forced to be together as one, even with massive disagreements, is still the best of a bad situation where we have far outgrown our small tribal structure.

@MrKolozal Not sure if you are serious, but It is sold over the counter, intended for humans, around the world including here in Panama. It saved the life of our obese, high BP, asthmatic, diabetic housekeeper. She was diagnosed with Kovid and was turning blue waiting for a hospital bed. She took it one day and was out of bed the next. Ten days later she was back to normal. Billions of doses have been given to humans around the world for 40 years or so. Very few side effects. Jimmy and Rosalyn Carter's Carter Center uses it to cure River Blindness in Brazil, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Sudan, Uganda, and Venezuela. Now you know. Have a good day.

Don't pray. Get healthy. Poor lifestyle choices are making us sick with obesity, prediabetes, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, dementia, Alzheimer's, and etc. I eliminated all sugar from my diet, drastically curbed carbs, cut out all seed oils (soy, corn, canola, safflower, and etc.). I eat the keto diet now and all my maladies have reversed, lab numbers are ideal, now no diagnosis, no meds, no colds and flu. Massive difference in my health and I no longer fear this thing. 73 and I feel great!

Thanks Dr. Campbell. I am 73 and have not taken advantage of this shot in the arm thing. I have no comorbidities, do not eat inflammation-causing foods, get good sleep, good exercise, and take the appropriate supplements. The other day I swung a 10-pound sledge hammer for four hours and wasn't sore the next day. It has been years since I had a cold or the flu. I have a wonderful low-stress wife and am living a good life. At this point, it seems to me that for a healthy guy like me, this thing as good as over (unless it mutates in reverse). The risk/benefit for me, in my opinion, is all one sided. At risk people should be protected, of course, but I would like to see an end to all mandates, fear, and madness. They have caused so much harm in the world and have not been scientific in their application. By the way, I was vaccinated for everything as a child and several times in the military oh so long ago. I'm not anti-vax. I've never had a flu shot. Viruses are nature's clean up crew. This virus is not an equal-opportunity infector; healthy people generally skate by while sick people pay more dearly. This has been a pandemic of the unwell (insulin resistance, obesity, diabetes, CVD, high BP, and etc.). I could go on for hours but it's time for my siesta. Peace.

@firefly1154 Haha, I have a couple more teeth on the bottom than you, but I'm getting close! Yes, I have heard the fear mongering for years about my face falling off. Choosing the correct path is difficult, especially if one has to consider the financial interests of the dentist. My wife, bless her heart, says I am still her handsome man. I smile a lot to keep my muscles strong. But, I eat a lot of meat, the Carnivore diet if you will, and it is getting increasingly difficult to chew a nice piece of beef. That's the only reason I am considering replacing the teeth. (Or conversely, hamburger has its benefits, too.) Good luck with your decision. As an aside, have you seen the Spoon Lady? I very much like this stereotype-busting video of hers -- Search YouTube for -- So What If I don't Have Teeth! (Spoon Lady).

I'm 76. I tried Keto for a couple years with moderate success. However, in the past 27-months that I have been eating Carnivore, I have reversed/eliminated T2 diabetes, high blood pressure, wicked arthritis, brain fog, gum disease, lost 45-pounds, and on and on. I'm healthier than I have ever been. Life without plants, with all their toxins, antinutrients, high cost these days, and applied chemicals just aren't worth it to me. I love my meat, eggs, butter, salt, and water!

This was fascinating. Thank you!
I am neither a doctor nor a scientist. I was a carpenter by trade and am my own personal lab mouse. After two tours in Vietnam, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. Since then, have been on a quest to not be sick, live as long as I can, and die healthy. In the 70s and 80s there was not a lot of knowledge. Wheat grass, sprouts, macrobiotics, Euell Gibbons, and that was about it. In the 80s I became a vegetarian, eating tofu, whole grains and canola oil. My health improved significantly, but was far from optimal. By the time I was 65, I had prediabetes, high BP, multiple chemical sensitivities, and a lot of brain fog. I was contemplating stopping driving. At that time my wife, who was critically ill with heart issues, went to a new cardiologist. She (the cardiologist) told my wife that pills wouldn't help much, and that she should read the book, Wheat Belly. We read it and changed our diets immediately, moving to Paleo and Keto. Her health is much, much better now. And I'm now 73, my metabolic disease and autoimmune syndrome has reversed dramatically, and I am driving with confidence. Now I am spending my time fine tuning, looking for every advantage, every angle, because when I look in the mirror I still don't see the person that I want to see age-wise. I know I can do better, but 50-years of less than good health has taken a toll. I also don't like what I see around me; my friends and family are dying sooner, at a faster and faster rate due to insulin resistance/metabolic disease.
I am one of the "general public" intellectually-curious people that you talked about. Thank you again for venturing out of the Ivory Tower and doing this podcast!

The best way to protect oneself from any illness, in my opinion, is to stop eating an inflammatory diet. Sugar, carbs, starches -- all cause inflammation, yielding metabolic disease. I'm 75 and have eaten only meat, eggs, butter, salt, and water for the past several years. My wife, too. We have not even had a sneeze or a cough. We made it through the thing without even getting the thing in our arms. As far as I am concerned, the Carnivore diet is all the protection I need to keep me healthy with no diagnoses, no pills, no shots.

This certainly was helpful for me. Three years ago I began eating the carnivore diet way. In doing so, I went through weeks of sugar and carbohydrate withdrawal. For nearly three years, I did great. No cravings, no longings for foods I no longer eat. Then four months ago, my best friend and wonderful wife of 20 years died unexpectedly from complications from a fall causing a traumatic head injury. Both retired, we had been together 24/7 for this entire time. I realize that the vast majority of my dopamine response came from our very close physical, emotional and loving relationship. The grief is palpable and massive. To my surprise, my sugar addiction came roaring back full tilt. I don't smoke, drink, use food as anesthesia, won't use mood altering prescription or recreational drugs, don't go to bars, don't use social media except for YouTube, and refuse to watch porn because of the damage it does to everyone involved, and therefore I don't have any fallback to try to mediate/self medicate my grief. I am now engulfing myself in the seemingly impossible task of feeling my grief without giving in to the crutch of sugar. I know that I will get there, that the grief will lessen over time. I think this first year will be hellish. But in the meantime for this 76-year-old man, this is rough. Thank you for this episode.

I appreciate Florida's free thinking. However I do wish they had defined "healthy fats." And I disagree with prioritizing vegetables. I was a vegetarian for 35-years. I ate, and grew organically, many many vegetables. And of course I ate "heart healthy" vegetable oils, or more correctly named seed oils. Year by year, my health got worse. 2.5 years ago, I switched to eating the Carnivore way; meat, eggs, butter, salt, and water. That's it. In this time I have reversed T2 diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, gum disease, brain fog, and a bunch of other things. Animal fat, especially from ruminant animals is non-inflammatory and far superior to seed oils. I'm 76 and am enjoying excellent health and energy. I'll never go back to eating those nasty plants!

For most of my life, my mouth was constantly bathed in sugar and grains. You guessed it, I always had cavities. Many of them. Even for 35 years when I was eating a "natural" vegetarian diet, the decay continued on and on (now I know it was because of the grains I ate that turned to sugar). Twenty-one months ago I switched to the carnivore diet. No more sugars, grains, seed oils, and even fruits and vegetables (see YouTube "Anthony Chaffee MD Plants Are Trying To Kill You.") About a year in to this way of eating, I realized that my gum disease had gone away. My gums no longer bled all the time. And no more cavities appeared on the scene. Also, my wife noticed that I no longer had morning breath - none at all! Then I noticed that my teeth were always silky smooth. So much so that I just stopped brushing altogether. I still lightly floss to get the meat pieces out from between my teeth. This past year has been the longest I have ever gone without having my dentist on speed dial. So I believe that the environment in the mouth is absolutely 100 percent determined by what is on your fork. Not only did everything in my mouth dramatically improve, but I reversed T2 diabetes, arthritis, high blood pressure, brain fog, and on and on. I'm 75 and am living in peace and harmony with my body for the first time in my life. I'll never go back to eating those nasty plant "foods."

Big pharma laughing all the way to the bank yet this is still all experimental and so many unknowns. Thanks, but I'm putting my money, literally, on boosting my immune system. With no diagnosis of any metabolic syndrome diseases, and a box of I ver mec tin in my medicine cabinet, it is good to not be afraid of Covid-19 or any of the thousands of varients to come. I'm 73 and may be in the "old" category because of my age, but I fit better in the twenty-something category because of my good health. WHY aren't we all focused on better health? I know, sugar addiction, brain fog, and junk food marketing pressure. To me, watching all this is like watching a dramatic Latin American telenova.

I am so tired of ALL of this. I have never had the flu shot and I don't get the flu. I don't get colds either, for many years now. I don't have a diagnosis of any disease caused by insulin resistance/metabolic syndrome. My BP is very normal and I can brisk-walk a mile without distress of any kind. I don't eat sugar (in any form), no dairy, no grains, and no omega-6 oils. Basically I eat the keto diet. I take all the supplements recommended by the FLCCC, have a box of Iv er mec tin on the kitchen counter, get a lot of sleep, and reduce stress as much as possible. I take precautions, but I don't over-sanitize my body or my environment. People have had bad Covid all around and very close to me, and they all think that the way I live my life is strange and somehow too limiting. I may have had Covid recently, as I was tired for about four days. This virus is going to tear through our world until people realize that the Standard American Diet is crap and causes all manner of disease. The food pyramid is one of the worst things that has happened to humanity. I'm in my 70s, love to rant, and am getting crankier by the day. Love and peace to you all.

Executive Summary: I'm from the government. I'm here to help you.
Puerto Rico. Katrina. Wildfires. California The Big One earthquake? No, the government is not prepared to take care of us. And as you say, yes, one can prepare without conspiracy thinking. Among other things, I'm currently building an aquaponics greenhouse, installing solar power and making sure that my wife and I have enough food for a length of time. Even drought is possible so I have a 1,500 gallon water tank. I am preparing for the most likely events, not aliens, an asteroid-strike-multi-year-winter event, or nuclear end of times. In those events, I'd prefer to be the first to go.

Becoming physically fit for whatever happens is vital. Two years ago I was prediabetic, had wicked arthritis, high blood pressure, gum disease, 40-pounds of excess fat, you name it. A doctor suggested that I stop driving because my reflexes were so slow. Then I switched from the Standard American Diet to eating the Carnivore diet. Within these past two years all my maladies have reversed and gone away. I am now diagnosis free and take no more medicines. I'm 75, fit, healthy, and clear thinking. I drive with confidence. For me, my survival strategy is to distance myself as much as possible from entrenched systems. Education, nutrition, medical, party politics, and etc., if it is entrenched and profit driven, I run (and now I CAN run again!). The food industrial complex spews lie after lie. If you are unhappy with your state of health and want real success in prepping or just living your best life, no matter your age, look into the benefits of eating only animal protein and fat. There are no essential carbohydrates or fiber. No one ever found a cave painting of a salad. Eat meat!

Transportation can't be studied in a vacuum. If city planners transform cities to have walkable/bikeable neighborhoods that combine street level businesses, with a number of floors of offices above, and residential housing above that, then less public transportation will be needed. And given the future of online work and online shopping, then we can function without nearly as much public transportation. Even ride-sharing or car-sharing is problematic from a sanitary perspective and from the need to have more roadways. With more centralized and self-sustaining neighborhoods, in a way, we would be returning to our history of smaller tribes. There are many benefits to having smaller tribes.
If cities don't change and mass transportation is still needed at the current rate, and social distancing is promoted to make public transportation safer, then a transit capacity of several magnitudes would have to be provided -- more transit vehicles, more frequency, more sanitation workers to clean the vehicles, more energy usage, and etc. Add to all of this the sprawling high density growth of cities due to significant future population growth (have you seen the size of some of the cities in China?), and I don't see mass transit being viable unless cities change their live/work/play structure.
I'm thinking about this not because I live in a city (I don't, I live remotely in the mountains), or because I am a city planner (I'm not). I'm thinking about this because I am a model railroader. I would like to build a new layout that models a future green city. This morning, I asked myself the questions, "Is transit rail dead?" "What will transportation be like in future cities?" I'm watching numerous YouTube videos about city planning for the future and although I want to model light rail, subways, elevated trains and the like, I just don't see the need for nearly as much rail in well-planned future green cities. Great. What a dilemma. A model railroader with no railroad to model.

I take excellent care of my health. I have no comorbidities, no diagnoses, and take no meds. I suspect that the lockdowns were absolutely meaningless in saving my life. Zero point zero, or as you may say Dr. John, zed point zed. I'm still unvaxed and to the best of my knowledge have not even had a sneeze over this thing (even though people in my employ were quite ill with it). Heck, I can't even seem to get Omicron. If I ruled the world, I would say that in the future, protect the vulnerable and let the rest of us get on with life. This virus is not the same for everyone -- it has been a pandemic of the unwell. An outcome of junk food, too much insulin resistance, too much sugar, too many carbs, too little Vitamin-D, too much stress, too much fear, and too little sleep.

It's funny. I used to pop my knuckles and my wrists were so loose that I was afraid it would come out of joint. I was frequently at the chiropractor's office. Twenty-two months ago I switched (from 35-years as a vegetarian) to eating the Carnivore diet way. Now it is almost impossible for me to crack my knuckles, my wrists are strong, and I haven't been to the chiropractor in all this time. Plus, my prediabetes, arthritis, high blood pressure, gum disease, brain fog, forty extra pounds, and on and on completely went away. I'll never go back to eating sugar, carbs, seed oils, and even fruits and veges.

This will not stop until people get healthy. Comorbidities worsen the outcome of this virus. Comorbidities of obesity, prediabetes, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, dementia, Alzheimer's, and etc. are largely due to poor lifestyle choices and/or poverty. We will not shot, jab, poke, or pill our way out of this. I eliminated all sugar from my diet, drastically curbed carbs, cut out all seed oils (soy, corn, canola, safflower, and etc.). I eat the keto diet now and all my maladies have reversed, lab numbers are ideal, now no diagnosis, no meds, no colds and flus. Now at 73, I feel great. I'm painting my house now, and my wife doesn't even get nervous when I am working on ladders and planks high off the ground. This is a pandemic of the unwell. Viruses rule an unhealthy host. Your mileage may vary.

I easily lost weight and cured prediabetes, arthritis, high blood pressure, brain fog, bad gum disease, and on and on by switching to the Carnivore diet two years ago. I'm 75 and am enjoying my healthy and energetic life without cravings, eating disorders, and hunger between meals. I eat all I want, don't gain weight, and am perfectly satisfied eating meat, eggs, butter, salt, and water. Meat. It is what our distant ancestors ate and that's good enough for me. No one ever found a cave painting of a salad or a box of Pop Tarts.

@ninjacat508 Tracey, yes, I agree with everything you said. For me, two tours of Vietnam, two divorces, and with a slew of life events behind me, this, this is the most emotionally impactful event of my life. It is wickedly difficult. I too was her caregiver for several weeks before it became necessary to hospitalize her. This is an expression of love that I had never experienced. Now four months in I have some good days only lightly sprinkled with profound moments of grief. I am doing my best to simultaneously grieve and to move forward with my life. My Cynthia, and I suspect your partner, would want us to continue on, to thrive, to be happy. Before she lost consciousness, she told me so. She said that she hoped that I find a new love with as much appreciation for me as she had. So it is a push and pull to celebrate my memories of her and to get up every morning, make my bed, feed myself, be productive, and not allow myself to wallow in self pity for more than a few moments. I hope that you find balance and healing. It does get easier if we do the work that is before us. With love and compassion to a fellow traveler.

I agree David and think this was a good topic to cover. Vitamin D is actually a hormone. All kinds of things can change our hormone balance.
To me, the really big item to watch is diet. We are experiencing a Diet Induced nightmare of inflammatory Metabolic Disease - diabetes, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's and etc due to our bad diets. The answer for me, and do your own due diligence, was to eliminate all sugar, dairy, and the vast majority of carbs from my diet. My diet most closely resembles Keto. Now at 72 I do not have a diagnosis of ill health and have excellent energy and strength compared to my peers and even compared to myself just a few years ago. The death rate from Covid-19 is much, much higher if you have one of these metabolic diseases. While I don't want to get this virus, I feel fairly confident that I could manage it at home and that I would survive it.

@19037vinny Carbohydrates are most foods made from plants. There is no minimum daily requirements for carbs. Nor for fiber. Carbs are sugars, fruits, most veges, starches, bread, potatoes, pizza, pasta & etc. I've cured my T2 diabetes, arthritis, high blood pressure, brain fog, gum disease and on and on just by eating the Carnivore diet. Almost three years now and am going strong. Search YouTube for "KenDBerry MD Carnivore diet (beginner's guide)" if you are interested.
