Most, if not all of this, is happening right here in Australia!

I am not a conspiracy theorist but let’s be honest. At some point the patterns become a little too loud to ignore. People act like questioning things makes you crazy when really it just means you are paying attention. So, if that makes me “one of those people,” then fine. I would rather ask questions than pretend everything around us is normal when it very clearly is not.

I am not a conspiracy theorist but…

One: The food supply is filled with artificial dyes, chemical preservatives, pesticides, and synthetic additives that dozens of countries banned years ago because they are linked to cancer, behavioral issues, hormonal disruption, and inflammation, yet the United States continues to allow them.

Two: The soil is so mineral depleted from over farming, chemicals, and modern agricultural practices that even organic produce today contains significantly less nutrition than the same crops fifty years ago.

Three: Ninety percent of vitamins and minerals on the market are synthetic, chemically engineered in labs, or made from petroleum byproducts, which is why people swallow handfuls of supplements and still feel depleted.

Four: Pharmaceutical companies fund a huge portion of medical research, meaning the same corporations selling the drugs also influence what gets studied, taught, recommended, and approved.

Five: The news is owned by a handful of corporations that shape the narrative, decide what the public sees, and strategically avoid information that might challenge pharmaceutical, political, or corporate interests.

Six: Tap water in many places contains chlorine, fluoride, heavy metals, pesticides, endocrine disruptors, PFAS, pharmaceutical residues, and micro-plastics that the human body was never designed to ingest.

Seven: “Natural flavors” sound innocent but legally can contain dozens or even hundreds of synthetic chemicals, stabilizers, solvents, and artificial compounds that never have to be individually listed.

Eight: The FDA has approved ingredients that are banned in Europe, Japan, and many other countries due to proven risks, yet they remain in American children’s food, snacks, and drinks.

Nine: Hormone disrupting chemicals are found in everyday products like plastics, receipts, lotions, shampoos, laundry detergents, perfumes, and air fresheners, slowly altering hormonal balance without people realizing it.

Ten: The medical system focuses heavily on masking symptoms with pharmaceuticals rather than identifying the root causes, which leaves people dependent on prescriptions rather than empowered with solutions.

Eleven: Parasites are far more common than people think because they do not always show up in stool tests, and symptoms like fatigue, bloating, rashes, mood swings, cravings, and nutrient deficiencies are often dismissed.

Twelve: Mold toxicity affects millions of people, yet mainstream medicine rarely tests for it, leading people to suffer with chronic inflammation, neurological symptoms, and gut issues with no answers.

Thirteen: Despite record high levels of medication use, chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, obesity, infertility, and neurological issues are skyrocketing, which clearly shows that something in the system is not working.

Fourteen: Natural health information is shadow banned, censored, or buried while pharmaceutical advertisements are pushed constantly because one generates profit and the other does not.

Fifteen: Fast food companies engineer meals to trigger dopamine, cravings, and addiction so people keep coming back even though the ingredients damage the gut, hormones, and metabolic health.

Sixteen: Seed oils like canola, vegtable, soy, and corn oil are cheap to produce and highly inflammatory, yet they are added to almost every packaged food and restaurant meal even though they contribute to chronic disease.

Seventeen: Sunscreen blocks UVB rays that your body needs to make vitamin D, regulate hormones, and support immunity, yet people fear the sun instead of the chemicals in their products.

Eighteen: Many people’s chronic pain, autoimmune issues, and unexplained symptoms began after mold exposure, toxin exposure, water damage, pesticides, or environmental triggers that were ignored.

Nineteen: Anxiety, depression, burnout, and brain fog exploded as people became more disconnected from nature, sunlight, minerals, movement, real food, and community.

Twenty: Ultra processed foods are marketed as “healthy” just because they sprinkle in a few synthetic vitamins, even though the overall product harms gut health, immunity, and metabolism.

Twenty One: Hospitals serve patients processed food, sugar, seed oils, microwaved meals, and chemical filled snacks despite the fact that all of those things worsen inflammation and delay healing.

Twenty Two: ‘Vaccines‘ are treated like a sacred topic that cannot be questioned even though they contain adjuvants, preservatives, metals, stabilizers, and synthetic components that many people react to, and any discussion around risks, injuries, or long term effects is immediately censored or dismissed instead of studied honestly.

Twenty Three: Medical students receive almost no nutritional training even though nutrition fuels every cell, organ, hormone pathway, immune response, and detox process in the human body.

Twenty Four: People often trust brand labels and marketing more than they trust their own symptoms, intuition, and lived experience.

Twenty Five: Companies hide harmful ingredients under terms like “fragrance,” “perfume,” or “proprietary blend” so they never have to disclose what is actually in the product.

Twenty Six: People will passionately debate natural remedies but will not question why the majority of the population is chronically ill, overweight, inflamed, or nutrient deficient.

Twenty Seven: Many scientific studies conveniently support the financial goals of the organizations funding them, which raises serious concerns about neutrality and transparency.

Twenty Eight: Breakfast cereals loaded with sugar, dyes, and additives are marketed as nourishing because they are “fortified,” even though the vitamins added are synthetic and poorly absorbed.

Twenty Nine: People assume aging automatically means sickness when it often means chronic nutrient depletion, toxin accumulation, inflammation, and lifestyle patterns that were never addressed.

Thirty: Many common symptoms such as fatigue, hair loss, cravings, anxiety, irritability, sleep issues, and brain fog are signs of mineral imbalance that rarely get tested.

Thirty One: Antibiotics are handed out easily even though they destroy gut bacteria that support digestion, mood, hormones, immunity, and detoxification.

Thirty Two: Microplastics have now been found in human blood, lungs, breast milk, placentas, and even newborn babies, showing just how deeply the environment has been contaminated.

Thirty Three: Artificial dyes in children’s food are linked to hyperactivity and behavioral issues in other countries, yet the United States still allows them freely.

Thirty Four: Personal care products marketed as clean or gentle often contain carcinogens, endocrine disruptors, and ingredients linked to reproductive issues.

Thirty Five: Companies quietly reformulate harmful products only after lawsuits or public outrage but never acknowledge the harm that was already done.

Thirty Six: People are told their bodies do not need detoxing, despite the fact that we are exposed to more chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, plastics, metals, and toxins than any generation in history.

Thirty Seven: Many illnesses labeled as genetic are actually driven by environment, lifestyle, nutrition, and toxin exposure, but calling them genetic removes accountability from industries.

Thirty Eight: People live with chronic exhaustion, inflammation, pain, and emotional overwhelm because their bodies are constantly fighting off nutrient deficiencies, toxins, stress, and over-stimulation.

Thirty Nine: Natural health is labeled extreme, while eating processed food, taking endless prescriptions, and living in toxic environments is labeled normal.

Forty: And somehow after all of this, questioning any of it makes you the crazy one instead of the person who is paying attention.

Phew. That was a lot. And honestly I could keep going because once you start connecting the dots it really is never ending. I swear the rabbit hole has sub-rabbit holes at this point. You lift one lid and five more pop up like a toxic whack a mole. Every time you think you reached the bottom, the floor slides open and there is a whole new level you never asked for. And then people look at you like you are the crazy one for noticing any of it. And it always cracks me up how the moment you acknowledge any of this, people clutch their pearls like you just announced you live in a bunker.

The whole “I am not a conspiracy theorist but” line has become a survival tool at this point. It really just means “I pay attention and I’m not blindfolding myself to make other people comfortable.”

Because let’s be honest, there is nothing crazy about noticing patterns. The crazy part is how many people are still pretending nothing is happening at all.

Do your own research!
