"God had a reason to command us not to eat crustaceans and most insects." Pork as well, which is found to have significant amounts of PUFA, now showing to be unhealthy. Great article!
Hi Joe, I heard Alex Jones say that a vaccine commonly given to babies and children used peanuts as a substrate, or something to that nature. Do you have more information and a link that I can read? He mentioned this in passing on his show but didn't go into details and I cannot recall the vaccine. It's important for people to know due to the spike in peanut allergies that began in the 1990s. Thanks.
Thanks for reaching out. I found this book via Google Scholar, that will be helpful for your inquiry. The foreword happens to be by Robert F. Kennedy Jr, and he mentions that "a child immunized with a vaccine containing peanut oil, or similar proteins, may develop a deadly allergy to peanuts. Further, as noted by the LEAP study, once a child has developed allergies there is a tendency to develop more." Thereafter he goes on to describe the profitability of selling pharmaceutical 'solutions' to allergies caused by vaccines. Now I want to buy this book. Thanks for the thought-provoking question. God bless you.
Thanks for the heads-up. One thing she didn’t mention is that there are mixed findings regarding allergies to chitin, and that the primary allergy in shellfish crustaceans is tropomyosin. This helps explain why people who tolerate mushrooms may have dust mite, shrimp, crab, lobster, and insect allergies. Chitin is the second most abundant biological polymer on Earth. We are constantly inhaling chitinous spores of fungi, usually without consequence.
Hi Joe, just heard you on AJ. Thanks for publicizing this topic. Perhaps you ought to write a piece in one of the popular weed pubs to get the word out.
Food colors. Cochineal. A decade or more ago I checked the label on a bottle of a newly released juice by Ocean Spray; the color looked artificial yellow and opaque. Sure enough, it contained an insect food coloring. Star Bucks … https://www.livescience.com/36292-red-food-dye-bugs-cochineal-carmine.html
You’re welcome. I’ve written for HT, Weed World, Cannabis Culture, and had a column in The Evolution, but it’s been a few years. I’ll think about it. Thanks for the link about cochineal! I’m crafting a unique bass guitar, and I’ve read a lot of literature and forum conversations about traditional dyes for luthierie, going back to Amati’s invention of violins in 1550, one dye being cochineal. There is also an Italian traditional varnish maker on instagram who uses cochineal. I didn’t realize it was being used in foods, but I’m not surprised. Thanks for your feedback!
Hi Joe, I'm actually not in favor of cannabis use but I made my suggestion to reach more people. Drug use is the main cause of homelessness. Take care!
I wrote an article years ago called “The Blurry Line Between Food and Drugs.” Many foods have drug effects, including bananas, milk, cinnamon, thyme, chocolate, and a lot of others. Cannabis is the least toxic ‘drug’ known. If eaten instead of smoked, the distinction of cannabis as a drug fades, albeit the effects can be powerful. I see a lot of people that see nothing wrong with alcohol, which is quite toxic, who denounce cannabis. Others use ibuprofen, Benadryl, acetaminophen, etc like candy (relatively dangerous drugs I haven’t used in more than a decade), while criticizing cannabis. I also see smart people deceived into thinking CBD is the “good” component of cannabis. While CBD is amazing for a lot of conditions, such as anxiety and inflammation, the ailments that medical cannabis was originally legalized for are for the most part not treatable with CBD. Glaucoma, appetite loss from chemotherapy, and AIDS wasting syndrome are primary examples, that indicate THC and don’t respond to CBD. Many drugs are devastating, but cannabis alone is rarely problematic. Currently there is a trend for very high-THC strains that I agree with Alex Jones seem “weaponized,” though not intentionally in my opinion, knowing the breeding process. These strains lack some of the terpenes and other components that mollify the effect of THC. One great feature of cannabis is that the multitude of strains, with various compositions, can prevent tolerance, which is a major problem for many other therapies. Another trend, which I oppose, is the use of highly potent concentrates, ie purified resins. Also, not to defend hard drug use, but I think many homeless people have mental health issues that push them toward drug use, creating a chicken-or-the-egg scenario. The only hard drug I’ve ever done is alcohol. I’m an example of someone who has benefited from cannabis. Thanks for your comments! Take care, and may God bless you.
Thanks! I knew there must be other people wondering. I love mushrooms for a lot of different health benefits. I mix mushroom powders into my coffee, including lion’s mane, reishi, cordyceps, and others.

Wow. Good work. Thank you Joe.
My pleasure
Hi Joe, just a note to inform you that Dr. Tenpenny has posted two posts on her Substack re insects … https://drtenpenny.substack.com/

fascinating, I've wondered about this.
