Hattie May states, "My name is Hattie May. The good Lord has blessed me with 108 years on this earth. And every doctor who ever told me to watch my cholesterol is dead and gone. Every single one."

The reactor introduces a 108-year-old woman from a video titled "I'm 108. These seven foods are why I'm still alive." Believes all humans should live well into their 100s; many die younger, barely reaching 80s with mobility issues, arthritis due to foods eaten.

I've seen two world wars, a man walk on the moon and phones that talk to you. And in all that time, I've seen a whole lot of foolishness, especially when it comes to what people put in their bodies.

They come in with their fancy degrees and their new pills and they tell you to eat this and not to eat that. And half of it is just nonsense paid for by some company trying to sell you something in a box.

Doctors get almost zero education on nutrition; trained to prescribe medication, treat symptoms, not root causes.

The real truth. The kind of truth that gets passed down from your great grandmama, not from some commercial on the television. It ain't about magic powders or expensive diets. It's about the food that comes from the earth, the food God gave us. And I've got seven of them that I've been eating my whole life. Seven foods that are the reason I'm still sitting here talking to you today.

First food: Coffee. Strong cup of black coffee every morning since age 16.

They tell you it's going to give you a heart attack. Make you nervous. Child, please. What's going to give you a heart attack is worrying about every little thing.

Reactor doesn't drink coffee but notes many fix metabolic health with it; others feel better without. Issues with cheap grocery store coffee (mold, sourcing).

Second: Berries (God's candy) - blueberries, blackberries, raspberries. Picked wild as a girl, now from store.

Reactor avoids berries; some add back after fixing metabolic health. Ancestrally, eaten seasonally to fatten up before winter, not daily year-round. For most with poor metabolic health, perpetuates carb/sugar addiction. Store berries have pesticides, glyphosate, forever chemicals; picked unripe.

Third: Fatty fish - salmon, sardines, mackerel (oily kind). Ate sardines from can in Georgia; "poor man's lunch" or "rich man's medicine."

Fits ancestral eating (fish, meat, not Twinkies, pizza, donuts). Brain made of fat, needs clean fat; hormones need fat. Demonization of animal fats links to hormonal issues, depression, anxiety, fertility issues, sleep issues.

Your brain is made of fat. And it needs good, clean fat to keep working, right?

Fourth: Eggs (whole egg, yolk and all).

For 50 years, 50 years, they told us the yoke was going to clog our hearts. Scared a whole generation away from the most perfect food God ever made. The yolk is where the power is.

Inexpensive, high value (fat, choline). Reactor eats two fried in bacon grease daily.

Fifth: Red meat (grass-fed, from cow that walked in sun).

They tell you it's gonna kill you. Your body needs what's in that meat. It needs that iron, that B12. Those are the things that give your muscle strength, that keep your blood strong. You feel weak, you feel tired. It ain't because you're old. It's because you're eating chicken breast and tofu.

You need the power that comes from the earth and a cow is just a machine for turning grass and sunshine into strength.

Sixth: Fermented foods - sauerkraut, pickles, buttermilk (alive with good bacteria).

Your gut is like a garden. And you got to have good soil. If you just got weeds in there, you're going to be sick. These fermented foods, they put the good stuff back in. They keep your digestion right. A happy gut is a happy life.

Reactor recently added sauerkraut juice, homemade fermented elderberry yogurt (one spoonful daily with meat).

Seventh: Raw cacao (not sugary chocolate; bitter dark powder, one spoonful in morning coffee).

It wakes up your brain. It gives you a little fire. It's the best kept secret there is.

Sponsored by Proper Hairhold (properhold.com): 100% beef tallow from sixth-generation Wisconsin farmer; improves hair health, vitamins.

Compassionate Carnivore Store: Vanilla body butter from beef tallow (sixth-generation farmer); avoids chemicals (70% of skin/hair products enter bloodstream).

Hattie May's seven foods: coffee, berries, fatty fish, eggs, red meat, fermented foods, cacao.

It ain't what they're selling you on TV. is the opposite of what they're selling you, but it's the truth.

Reactor agrees except berries/coffee. Concern: Is video legit or AI? 2 million views. Beginning shows Hattie May (Zoom recorder-like setup). Red flags: Raw steak on table (static image?), no further footage of her speaking.

Research: Real Hattie May Little, Norfolk (North Carolina) woman turned 105 in 2019, credits longevity to healthy diet. Appeared on news. Possible AI fabrication using her story/image.

Recommends real example: Rancher Maggie (80s, proper human diet 65 years, jumps fences, teenager energy). Featured in documentary Healing Humanity: The Power of a Proper Human Diet (trailer link).
