3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
Dear Readers,
I do not always have the time to keep up with reading all the comments in our Mighty Network platform, but I am very glad I saw the responses to my posting about my first-in-my-life “annual check-up.”
I am devoting today’s blog to just one of the several responses, one that I feel I should post as a separate blog, not only for the sake of our MN members who may have missed Jacqueline’s comment, but because none of the readers of our blogs on the SKM (outward-facing) website see any MN reader comments/responses.
Her response is information which everyone seeking to maintain health should consider. Because of this information I am going to begin on the bile salts again, if not daily, then at least several times a week. (Normally, I only eat two meals per day; sometimes just once, in an effort to keep my weight down. More on that later.)
Furthermore, I also had discovered or “intuited” that, as Jacqueline suggests, it is best to take the bile salts 15 minutes or so after the meal. In case our MN readers cannot find Jacqueline’s comments, it was among the first ones at the conclusion of my blog, which are then often hidden to show only the most recent responses—until you click to open the complete blog, then the comments show up in order received.
Now here is what Jacqueline sent us with my emphasis added, as these are things about which I was ignorant.
QUOTE:
James, the purpose of the bile salts is that it mimics bile. Even if your digestion is ok, the reason bile is so important is that it acts like a detergent to break down the fats you eat or take in supplement form (via E, K, D, Omega-3,etc) so that your body can use them.
Without bile salts, those fats that are critical for your vision, cardiovascular, (really everything) will just pass through your intestines unabsorbed. Furthermore, without bile long-term, you could be looking at Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. [Yikes!]
You may feel ok for a few years but your body will be missing out on these vital building blocks for your future health and a lot of the fats will clog the ducts in your liver, not allowing it to do its job - that has huge repercussions down the line as you can imagine.
Also, I learned not to take the bile salts with food but to wait maybe 15-25 minutes after because that is when the bile would be injected into your system if you had a gallbladder. When you are eating, the stomach acids need to do their work and bile at that point interferes. END QUOTE
Thank you again, dear sister Jacqueline! Isn’t it wonderful how we live in an era when modern technology allows us to be scattered all over the country (indeed, all over the globe) and yet be able to communicate instantly?!! Thank you, Father!
Now, just an anecdote about weight control. I was at the Mountain Shag Dance Club the other night, sitting next to one of my dance instructors. He is in his early 80s and we have been getting better acquainted in recent months.
He has had some severe back issues which sound very similar to what I suffered in 2010—in bed on my back for ten weeks—so I was able to have true empathy for his situation.
Then he also mentioned how he spoke to his doctor about weight loss, asking him to give him a prescription for one of those injections (and he motioned sticking himself in the side of the stomach area), as he said, Yea, you just take the injection and it helps you lose weight and keep it off.
He added rather ruefully, But the doctor said I should not use it. I was disappointed… but he’s the doctor.
I said, Was it semaglutide, which is the generic name for the brand names Ozempic, Wegovy, and Rybelsus?
He said, yeah, that’s the one.
I said, Your doctor is absolutely correct, my friend, and you should thank him for saving your life. Have you ever heard the interview Tucker Carlson did with a man who exposed the life-threatening dangers of that product? (I could not remember his name at the moment. It is Calley Means).
He had not, so I will soon send him a link to it, and chances are, he will be as shocked to the core, as we all were when we saw that interview/podcast. Here is the link to that blog, dated February 27, 2024, in case you missed it.
It is entitled: “Big Pharma’s antidepressants fraud and the semaglutide bioweapon.” It contains the link to Tucker Carlson’s shocking interview of the Big Pharma whistleblower.
Blessings,
James
