People in Denmark, Switzerland, and Finland eat far more butterfat than we do here in the States, and yet have much less heart disease than we do in America. People in parts of Africa eat as much as 60 to 65 percent of their calories from butterfat. The natural conclusion would be that it is not cholesterol alone that is the problem here, but rather the lack of the other nutrients needed to utilize it.

Do not let your earthly condition dictate your spiritual position.

The United States is experiencing a profound crisis when it comes to mental health care. In a recent Senate Committee on Finance hearing on youth mental health, US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy shared that Americans wait 11 years, on average, between onset of symptoms and first receiving treatment. The consequences are plain to see: higher suicide and drug overdose rates, more Americans without a safe place to sleep, more children experiencing depression and anxiety. The house is on fire, and the nation is short on firefighters equipped to put out the blaze.

But the ongoing and increasing reliance on the internet underscores the need to understand the risks to its underlying architecture.
