🎙️ EP355 | DSD | Sugar, Assange & The Forever War PlaybookIn this episode, we kick things off with a health reality check — LASIK updates, blood pressure monitoring, and the dietary truths your doctor might not emphasize. The conversation zeroes in on sugar, pulling from expert clips and personal experiments to explore its impact on metabolism, inflammation, and chronic disease. From the dangers of “anything white” on your plate to the surprising performance hack of a pre-run cookie, this segment blends science, practicality, and just enough humor to make it stick.From there, the tone shifts — sharply — to Julian Assange’s prescient warning about forever wars. Revisiting a powerful 2011 clip, we unpack his assertion that modern conflicts aren’t designed to be won, but to funnel trillions into the hands of a transnational security elite. Using Afghanistan as a blueprint, we draw direct parallels to the endless cycles of Gaza and Ukraine, exploring how media narratives (or the lack thereof) manipulate public consent for war.By episode’s end, you’ll have a sharper lens on both personal health and global politics — plus, a reminder that the sugar in your coffee and the headlines on your feed may both deserve a second look. Whether it’s your diet or the defense budget, this one’s about cutting through the sweet coating and seeing what’s really underneath.🔥 Top 5 Key Points:Expert breakdown on sugar’s effects on the body and brainPractical hacks for managing sugar spikes (and using them to your advantage)Blood pressure & waist measurement tips from Michelle Ruthenstein’s insightsJulian Assange’s take on Afghanistan as a “forever war”How media narratives drive public consent for conflict🔑 Keywords & Themes:Sugar, processed sugar, inflammation, glycosylation, complex carbs, blood pressure, waist circumference, Michelle Ruthenstein, LASIK, metabolism, glucose, insulin resistance, white bread, white rice, Julian Assange, forever wars, Afghanistan, Gaza, Ukraine, media propaganda, defense contractors, endless war, geopolitical analysis, DSD podcast, health hacks, war economy⏳ Chapters & Timestamps:00:00 – Intro, LASIK update & eye health01:19 – Weekend recap & listener feedback04:39 – Sugar talk: What Michelle didn’t get to finish05:44 – Expert clip: Sugar’s metabolic impact09:12 – Viral clip: Sugar’s effects on skin, brain & gut10:31 – White foods to avoid & inflammation link12:53 – Blood pressure monitoring & weight maintenance16:51 – Julian Assange on Afghanistan & war economy18:42 – The role of media in fueling wars20:31 – DSD editorial: Endless war playbook21:22 – Preview: New political party interview coming Wednesday📢 Follow Deep Shallow Dive:📌 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deepshallowdive📌 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deepshallowdive/📌 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@deepshallowdive📌 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@deepshallowdive📌 Twitter: https://twitter.com/deepshallowdive📌 Threads: https://threads.net/@deepshallowdive🤖 Sugar = Body’s Silent Saboteur🥗 White Foods, Red Flags📏 Blood Pressure & Waist: New Health Metrics🍪 Cookie Before Cardio📰 Media Lies Fuel Wars🌍 Afghanistan as a Template⚠️ Endless War Economy
