This is my second year watching Ocean Robins' Food Revolution Summit and the topics sound great again! Curious if anyone here has heard of it or is watching along. The summit is 8 daily (11am EST) episodes that began today with great topics from great hosts and incredible guest interviews. Lots of great personalities from the vegan and whole food plant based communities, including my favourite, Dr Gregor!

Alzheimer’s is beginning to be understood as Type 3 Diabetes and will be more and more commonly be known as such. Meat (and fat) is making us sicker than people realize but is also easy to cut out or cut back on.

“Conclusions: Altogether, the results from these studies provide strong evidence in support of the hypothesis that AD represents a form of diabetes mellitus that selectively afflicts the brain.”

“In studies across 11 countries, fat consumption appeared to be most closely correlated with the prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease, with the lowest fat intake and Alzheimer’s rates in China to the highest fat intake and Alzheimer’s rates in the United States.”

I had switched to DDG search and, like you, was getting more and more frustrated with their results. I then switched to SwissCows (https://swisscows.com/) and have never considered another search engine since. The results I want are always top 5. Every time. I sopped testing alternatives long ago and am extremely content using SwissCows! I would recommend checking it out!

RSS has always been great! Thankfully I never relied on Google Reader and have been using Newsify for 5+ years. Great app with a great newspaper view as well as an identical web version. Keept me off of Google and don't have to rely on Feedly either.

Newsify also supports Feedly accounts though I've never needed to consider migrating. I think I've had a couple full text issues with certain items but it's been amazing great and I've really enjoyed their product and price point for subscription ($50CAD/yr, I believe)
