I got a recipe from an older Chinese lady I use all the time. I just boil some water and make a tea- Go Ji berries-or wolf berries, dried red dates, chrysanthemums. Use about 14 berries, 5 or 6 dates and 4 or 5 flowers. I throw in green tea with it sometimes. You can find this stuff anywhere. Great concoction for detox, liver cleansing and blood cleansing. I have been using it for years-makes a difference. In USA people are eating goji berries by the handful and you can eat them as a snack or on a salad. They have all the essential amino acids, proteins, and vitamins. You can live off them I think. The wolves do in Winter=hence the name.

The Conspiracy To Make You Fat (and spend more $$$ on their food?)

It may have once contained only recognizable ingredients, but today's fast food is chemically engineered to create a state of bliss in the mind — a state the brain wants to replicate over and over again.

At least one study has found the magical combination triumvirate of sugar, fat, and salt so commonly found in fast food to be as addictive as heroin.

The book "The Slow Poisoning of America" by John and Michelle Erb claims that MSG is akin to "nicotine for food" — it's included for its addictive qualities so that once people consume it, they eat more of the food and they come back to have it again.

conspiracies have always and likely will always exist for the simple reason that people are greedy. and there's always a shortcut to happiness if you don't mind harming other people.

why doesn't anyone ridicule fake alcohol or gutter oil? they're conspiracies, aren't they? i mean, everyone's doing it and you're not supposed to know about it and no one seems to be stopping it. it's a classic definition of conspiracy.

Your question
"why doesn't anyone ridicule fake alcohol or gutter oil?"

Because a big American corp isn't doing it. So the conspiracy fairies aren't interested.

If you honestly believe people in this forum don't take the fake alcohol and gutter oil problems seriously then you haven't been paying attention. The reason they aren't considered "conspiracies" is because production of these things is not centralised and if the producers and distributors are caught they would likely face a firing squad.
Big American corporations and the the US government (basically the same entity at this point) actively conspire to screw the consumer and there is no higher power in place that can stop the bribery and corruption. I am 100% for the death penalty, especially for the assholes that are caught poisoning the food supply.
As for me I don't trust big corporations or governments of any country when it comes to my general well being.
