                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I recently purchased this Bible for a couple of reasons. One of them was simply wanting a Bible that is easy to read. This Bible fits that need as it has very large print. </p>
<p><a href="https://amzn.to/4cbRBV7" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NKJV Giant Print End-of-Verse Reference Bible, Purple Leathersoft, Red Letter, Comfort Print</a></p>
<p>When I opened it the first time, I felt like it was shouting at me. &#x1f606;  The print is dark and large. It took me a few days to adjust to it. Now that I'm used to it, it is wonderful. </p>
<p>No more bending over or picking up the Bible I'm using to be able to see it clearly. I can have it laying open in front of me on a table or the bed and easily see everything. </p>
<p>So if your midlife eyes are needing assistance, I recommend checking out this Bible. &#x2764;&#xfe0f; </p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Normal cholesterol was originally 350. They keep lowering it. They just lowered it again. Why? To get more people on statins. </p>
<blockquote>
<p><span>DOCTORS ARE LITERALLY MANUFACTURING ALZHEIMER’S </span></p>
<p><span>Dr. Joel Wallach: “Alzheimer’s is a PHYSICIAN-CAUSED disease.” </span></p>
<p><span>Your brain is 75% myelin insulation. And myelin is 100% cholesterol. </span></p>
<p><span>Statins shred that cholesterol — stealing 75% of what your brain desperately needs to stay insulated and functional. </span></p>
<p><span>No myelin = no brain. </span></p>
<p><span>That’s why Alzheimer’s went from virtually unknown to the 4th leading killer over age 65. </span></p>
<p><span>They told you to lower your cholesterol… while your brain was starving for it. </span></p>
<p><span>This isn’t “aging.” </span></p>
<p><span>This is medical malpractice on a massive scale. </span></p>
<p><span>Stop letting them dissolve your brain. </span></p>
<p><span>Do your own research and stop the statins. </span></p>
<p><span>Protect your myelin.</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Someday we are going to discover they are lying about sugar. </p>
<p>They have lied about everything else. </p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Am I the only one who doesn't understand why so many people are taking Ozempic (or some other form of it)? </p>
<p>I understand why diabetics use it. But everyone else?</p>
<p>I really don't understand the push for Ozempic. I've read about so many serious negative side effects. Plus you put all the weight back on when you stop using it so you become dependent on the medication.  </p>
<p>And I don't mean this as a slam against anyone who might be using it. I simply don't understand the willingness to take the risk with it. </p>
<p>What am I missing?  </p>]]></content:encoded>
