Glad to hear he pulled through. Had the same scare a year and a half ago man. Shook me to my core. Thankfully it was nothing crazy but every doctor I came in contact with said 40 ain’t low enough. They’re pushing for 35 year old to screen now.

Get yourselves checked folks. Can’t stress that enough.

We all know that a diet heavy in processed foods isn't doing us any favours, but a study from 2015 provides insight into just how quickly fast food can trigger biological changes.

This is always the answer and everybody just acts like it isn't.

Bottom line, they tryna kill us. Along the way, though, they want to extract your energy, your soul, your source, for monetary gain.

Grow your own food. Participate in preventive therapies. Leave convenience, as a culture, all the way da fck alone.

Oh yeah, and when your body tells you it needs to sh!t, do it...right...then.
