[@KetogenicWoman]

This was completely fascinating! Thank you for interviewing her!

[@compassionateconversations441]

It blew my mind- so much I didn't know about how processed foods came to dominate.

[@phylissh365]

I want someone to get some law suits going, like what happened to the tobacco industry, for causing harm

[@compassionateconversations441]

That would be great. Perhaps you could start one and get others to join you?

[@phylissh365]

@compassionateconversations441 I'm not that brave. And I personally have not been so injured that I can't get it turned around.
I think of so many diabetics that have lossed limbs.
