American Healthcare continues to go backward

Wouldn't the butter just run out when you are cooking it?

The answer is yes but part of the instagram presentation is to cut the burger in half and squeeze it to show the “extra juice” running out.

I’ve never made them as 80/20 is a bit too much for me.

But I’m also the same guy who finishes my pulled pork and ribs in butter and brown sugar.

Maybe I should invest in iron lungs

And there is absolutely nothing wrong with food like that as yummy special occasion food. Heck, we had carnitas for dinner last night. Not that crock pot stuff, but hunks of pork fried in lard until caramelized and amazing carnitas at an El Salvadorian restaurant.

But these people eating a butter burger or rib-eye every day etc simply are going against all research.

Search "carnivore breakfast" on twitter.

And the difference is, and what people miss, what RFK Jr himself misses, is that RFK Jr is rich and can afford to buy the very best and take time to carefully design diets and consult chefs, personal trainers, etc. All that he's doing doesn't work the same way without all the accoutrements he can afford and that most ordinary people can't, that I can't afford. It's like every damn celebrity that loses 20 pounds and then writes a book telling everyone else how to do it, but they had a personal chef and a personal trainer, etc. and they don't know a damn thing about exercise or physiology or diet. Whereas the dietary guidelines are pretty much designed for everyone.

Did someone else write this? Because this is basically correct, and she's an idiot.

I can’t remember who wrote it, but wife #1 bought a celebrity weight loss book. Chapter 1, verse 1, sentence 1: “Aerobic means ‘moving through air.’” Nope, that is not what aerobic exercise means.

When I was in South Georgia the group that I worked for wanted a diabetic keto acidosis protocol (DKA) to help treat DKA so that when a patient was admitted in the middle of the night things didn’t get missed.

What he’s talking about, “blind obedience to a protocol” is a boogie man that doesn’t exist. He’s trying to create fear. Protocols exist to help providers think through complex cases and make sure things don’t get missed that might get missed otherwise. Study after study after study after study shows that they improve care. That’s why we use them. They improve care because they ensure that things don’t get missed.

There were two versions of the DKA protocol that I wrote, a two page version without references and a ten page version with full references. Every step, every piece of the protocol was referenced from the scientific literature, often with multiple sources. And every piece of the protocol was a choice that could be modified if needed or eliminated altogether if it wasn’t needed or if conditions made it unwise.

I’ve written other hospital protocols. The last one I wrote in South Georgia was a heparin protocol.

I never understood how important and how many lives could be saved by hospital protocols until I asked my buddy why as an IT worker for a hospital he was going around and removing mouse pads and replacing all mice in the hospital with optical mice and was required by protocol to burn them.

He then explained how many people died per year due to getting preventable infections from something as simple as a mousepad on a desk In a sterilization room and showed me results of test swabs done on a mouse pad and the different strains of bacteria and viruses that were living in the surface of that mouse and mouse pad ....

Quickly made me realize why protocols existed to remove and replace desktop towers in hospitals and mouse pads etc
