THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED: Why Real Health Will Never Come in a Pill

Somewhere between “trust the experts” and “ask your doctor,” America lost the plot. The same institutions that tell you to fear the sun, eat seed oils, and avoid red meat are the ones profiting from your sickness.

Read The Story

Somewhere between “trust the experts” and “ask your doctor,” America lost the plot. The same institutions that tell you to fear the sun, eat seed oils, and avoid red meat are the ones profiting from your sickness. It’s not a conspiracy—it’s business. Big business. The kind that turns your health into a recurring payment plan.

Let’s take a walk through the modern medical maze, meme by meme, and see just how deep the rabbit hole goes.


1. RFK Exposes the Elephant in the Room

When over 100 members of Congress have financial ties to the very pharmaceutical companies they’re supposed to regulate, you start to realize this isn’t about health—it’s about control. Big Pharma spends millions lobbying each year, and guess what? They’re not doing it to make your grocery store steak cheaper. They’re buying silence, influence, and policy that keeps you sick and dependent.

RFK’s recent exposé didn’t surprise anyone paying attention. From vaccine deals to opioid kickbacks, the pharmaceutical industry has Congress on a leash. The result? A health system that treats symptoms, not causes. Pills, not prevention. Profits, not people.


2. Trillions in Profit, Zero in Prevention

Big Pharma made $1.65 trillion last year—and not one cent went toward teaching you about nutrient density, sleep hygiene, or metabolic health. Instead, they pour money into marketing, lobbying, and drug development that rarely addresses the root of disease.

They don’t profit when you eat grass-finished beef and go for a walk in the sun. They profit when you pop a statin, refill your prescription, and keep coming back for more. It’s not healthcare. It’s repeat business disguised as compassion.


3. Doctors Back Then vs. Doctors Today

Once upon a time, physicians were healers. They studied herbs, food, rest, and the body’s innate capacity to repair. “Let food be thy medicine” wasn’t a slogan—it was a strategy.

Today? Many doctors are trapped in a system that rewards prescription writing over prevention. They mean well, but the modern education pipeline is built by Big Pharma, not Hippocrates. Nutrition barely makes the curriculum. Instead, students spend years learning how to manage disease, not reverse it. The result? A generation of well-intentioned pill pushers who treat lab numbers, not humans.


4. The Health of the Healers

Here’s the real irony: nearly half of U.S. physicians are now overweight or obese. If the experts prescribing “balanced diets” and “heart healthy grains” can’t stay metabolically fit, maybe it’s time to question the advice.

It’s not about judgment—it’s about reality. The healthcare system is broken from the inside out. When your schedule, stress, and cafeteria food mirror your patients’ problems, you become another cog in the chronic disease machine. It’s not the fault of individual doctors. It’s a system engineered for exhaustion, not wellness.


5. The “Healthy” Advice That Keeps You Sick

“Stay out of the sun, cook with heart-healthy seed oils, and avoid red meat.” Sound familiar? It’s the standard script delivered by a system that’s forgotten biology. Seed oils are industrial waste products that inflame your body. The sun is your most affordable source of Vitamin D and mitochondrial health. Red meat provides the complete amino acid profile you need to repair tissue, build hormones, and sustain life.

But you can’t patent sunlight. You can’t trademark a ribeye. You can, however, sell another pill for vitamin D deficiency or chronic inflammation. And that’s exactly what they do.


6. The Food-Medical Money Loop

The food industry creates your problem. The medical industry sells your “solution.” Together, they keep you stuck in a loop of fatigue, cravings, and chronic inflammation. Processed foods make you sick, medications make you sicker, and the profit wheel keeps turning.

The more disconnected you become from real food, the more they win. Every fast-food combo meal and sugar-laden coffee drink feeds a system that thrives on keeping you tired, hungry, and dependent. The truth is simple: the more you eat like your ancestors, the less money these corporations make.


7. Real Medicine Isn’t Found in a Pharmacy

There’s “medicine,” and then there’s medicine. Real medicine comes from sunlight, sleep, strength training, connection, and nutrient-dense foods. It’s found in nature, not in a neon-lit pharmacy aisle.

A bar made of grass-finished beef and tallow will do more for your mitochondria than a bottle of synthetic vitamins ever could. Liver, eggs, movement, grounding, and clean hydration—these are the true foundations of health. The modern system can’t profit from them, which is exactly why they ignore them.


Closing: The Exit Door Is Open

The good news? You don’t have to play the game. You can opt out. You can choose steak over cereal, sunlight over screen time, and ancestral wisdom over modern marketing. The system only wins when you forget who you are—a biological being designed for real food, movement, and connection.

When you eat like your ancestors, think for yourself, and fuel your body the way nature intended, you break free from the machine. That’s real rebellion. That’s true health.
