Roger Stone accuses U.S. officials—Blinken, Rice, Vindman, and Murphy—of coaching Zelensky to entrap Trump in a Logan Act violation during their Oval Office meeting, while alleging Ukraine’s ties to Hamas, drug cartels, and biolabs demand a Bondi-led investigation. Meanwhile, Dr. Evan Levine debunks health myths: Celtic salt harms heart patients, statins are safe, and processed vitamins like gummy erythritol pose risks, urging Medicare price controls and pharma ad bans. Trump’s crypto reserve (XRP, Solana) and English-language executive order contrast Biden’s anti-crypto stance, while Brink’s firing ties back to Burisma. The episode blends political manipulation, financial shifts, and medical misinformation, framing systemic corruption in governance and health industries. [Automatically generated summary]

Roger Stone.
Now, give him a zone.
It's the stone zone.
Here's Roger Stone.
Welcome.
This is Roger Stone, and this is the Stone Zone on the Red Apple Audio Networks.
The big story where we try to bring you the behind-the-scenes action continues to be the showdown in the Oval Office as we continue to have fallout from the epic meeting between President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
We now learn that Zelensky was coached by former Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Newland, former National Security Advisor Susan Rice, Alexander Vindmund, the former NSA official who was the progenitor of the fake Russian, pardon me, the fake Ukrainian impeachment hoax,
and U.S. Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut.
The problem with this, of course, is that that's a violation of the Logan Act.
In other words, they were coaching Zelensky for a setup.
It's funny that Susan Rice is quoted as saying the meeting was a setup.
It was, but it wasn't Trump setting them up.
It was them attempting to set Trump up.
Trump took command of the meeting.
But the truth is that Trump set up Zielinski for a confrontation is false.
In fact, we now know that Zelensky and the United Kingdom and EU were trying to play Trump because the British had already signed a deal that provided Ukraine quote-unquote security guarantees and the right of access to Ukraine's gas, oil, and rare earth minerals.
Also gave the Brits oversight of Ukraine's ports and the opportunity to invest in the rebuilding of Ukraine.
This was signed three days before Trump's inauguration.
So Zelensky already had a deal.
They were looking for a confrontation, but they lost control of it.
I would argue that Zelensky, who is, of course, an actor, turned in the worst stage performance of his entire acting career.
And Trump looked statesmanlike and strong against all odds.
It's amazing that these people are so brazen because the coaching of Zelensky is a violation of the Logan Act.
The Logan Act, you may recall, is the law that says that you can't have your own foreign policy.
Only the president of the United States can set foreign policy.
And therefore, going back to an earlier time, at the close of the 1968 election, when there were allegations that Richard Nixon, through an intermediary, had urged the South Vietnamese not to come to the bargaining table after President Lyndon Baines Johnson called for a bombing halt.
There were calls from the left that this was treasonous, that this was a violation of the Logan Act.
Recently, historian Nick Luchnic, pardon me, determined that that actually never happened.
So it is outrageous.
What should happen now?
Well, in my opinion, it should be a special counsel appointed by Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Now, the special counsel would have to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate to be legal, but that is, I think, the proper course of action here.
I'm still outraged by the fact that we've given this guy $350 billion, and he comes to meet the President of the United States, but he can't wear a suit and tie.
When he spoke to the World Economic Forum and he kissed the butt of Klaus Schwab, he wore a suit.
But when he shows up for meeting the President of the United States, he's wearing a dirty fatigue sweatshirt.
Also, when he addressed a joint session of Congress, he had the same garb.
I think it's offensive to the American people and offensive to the taxpayers.
We'll be following this story very carefully, but it's interesting, and I think striking that Lindsey Graham, who is usually a huge supporter of the Ukrainians, immediately bailed out on the diminutive leader of Ukraine.
Over the past three years, Lindsey Graham has always been a warhawk, but perhaps Graham turned on Zelensky because he knows what's coming.
Over the past three years, with the tacit support of its Western patriots, the Ukrainian government has committed a remarkable number of serious crimes.
The Ukrainians sold huge quantities of the weapons that we sent them on the international black market at 20 cents on the dollar.
These weapons are now in the hands of armed groups around the world, including Hamas, the Mexican drug cartels, and the forces now controlling Syria.
God knows what the Ukrainians have done with the pathogens in the American biolabs that Victoria Newland blurted out did exist.
Even our own U.S. intelligence agencies are not sure.
The Ukrainians also have murdered a number of people in various countries in political assassinations and tried to murder others, including successfully murdering an American journalist and a European head of state.
So at some point, I think Lindsey Graham knows that it's all going to come crashing down around Mr. Zelensky's ears.
You're listening to the stone zone here on the Red Apple audio networks.
It was 116 years ago today that President Theodore Roosevelt had his last full day as president.
His second term ended on March 4th when William Howard Taff was inaugurated.
On March 3rd, he signed a flurry of bills passed by Congress in its final sessions, including the Naval Appropriations Act, which funded battleship construction and his commitment to a strong Navy.
President Donald Trump will address the nation tomorrow.
He has announced that he will create a national cryptocurrency reserve holding cryptocurrencies in trust for America.
This is a marked change from the Biden administration that was hostile to cryptocurrency.
President Trump said the U.S. crypto reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden administration, which is why my executive order on digital assets directed the presidential working group to move forward on a crypto-strategic reserve, one that includes XRP, Solana, Cardano, and others.
Trump announced on his site, Truth Social.
President Trump also announced that he'll speak through this joint session of Congress tomorrow night.
We'll be telling it like it is, the president said.
It's amazing that Stephen Smith is now being touted as a candidate for president.
That's the ESPN broadcaster, Stephen A. Smith, who, by the way, was on my international best dress list for this year.
Smith seems to be amused by the fact that Democrats are looking at him as a potential candidate.
He said, the fact that I'm a candidate for the presidency of the United States, according to the polling for the Democratic Party, is the most clear-cut evidence, Smith said, of how pathetic a state of affairs exists within today's Democrat Party.
I have no business being on that list, none whatsoever.
I'm not qualified, but it just shows you how pathetic things are at this particular moment of time.
In a recent poll, Smith earned 2% of Democrat support for president and has said he wouldn't mind being in office as president, but he had no intention of running.
Smith previously revealed that he feels like a damn fool for voting for the Democrat Party nominee for president, Kamala Harris.
Back in January, Smith told Bill Maher, Yes, I voted for her.
A lot of people voted for her, but in the end, we ended up feeling like damn fools because we supported it.
We fell for the Okey joke, as they say.
If you had a primary, the likelihood is that Kamal Harris would never even have been the Democrat nominee.
Smith added, Kamala Harris, who didn't resonate during the primaries in 2020, couldn't even get to Iowa, suddenly he's a Democrat nominee, and then you roll up to the convention, everybody's like, she's a rock star.
How'd that happen?
Well, the party that keeps whining about democracy nominated a candidate that not a single Democrat primary voter or caucus voter had actually supported.
Legendary actor Bill Murray went on Joe Rogan's podcast last week and told the story how he suddenly realized that, yes, President Richard Nixon was framed by the media.
He actually said, this is Bill Murray, when I read the book Wired, the book written by Woodward, Bob Woodward of the Washington Post, I said, oh my God, they framed Nixon.
Murray explained that Woodward used faulty sources so far outside of John Belushi's inner circle that cast doubts on everything Woodward has reported.
If this is what he writes about my friend, somebody I've known for half my adult life, Murray said, which is completely inaccurate, talking to people from outside my friend's circle, what the hell could he have done to Nixon?
If he did this to Belushi, well, Nixon probably was soiled as well.
The two sources that he had, if he had them at all, were so far outside of Belushi's circle, it was criminal.
This is not the first time for Bob Woodward.
He also claimed that he had stolen into the room of former CIA director Bill Casey and that Casey had confessed his involvement in the Iran-Contra scandal.
The problem with that, of course, is that Bill Casey's son and his wife both told me that there was no evidence by the tight security provided by the CIA that Woodward had ever gotten access to the ailing CIA director, but additionally, that Bill Casey had been felled by a stroke and no longer had the capacity of speech at the time Woodward said that he spoke to him.
Woodward has lied about his own personal background.
He was a naval intelligence officer, and he was in the White House briefing the White House chief of staff, Alexander Haig.
So comedian Bill Murray calling out the great Bob Woodward.
Microsoft says they're shutting down Skype.
That will happen in May 2025.
Skype is one of the most popular video calling applications in the world, but it has fallen behind Zoom, FaceTime, Google Meet, and several other video calling apps.
Skype couched this announcement as a merger with another Microsoft application, Teams, which includes a video call function.
At its peak in 2013, Skype boasted 300 million users, but in early 2023, Microsoft reported Skype had just 36 million daily users.
I use Skype to do my Stone Zone broadcast, which is going to be synced with this show very soon.
So I guess we'll have to find out some new technology.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump moved to make English the official language of America on March 1st.
President Trump signed an executive order making English our official language.
From the founding of our republic, English has always been used as our national language, Trump declared.
Our nation's historic governing documents, including the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, have all been written in English.
It is therefore long past time that English is declared as the official language of the United States.
A nationally designated language is at the core of a unified and cohesive society, Trump said.
And the United States is straightened by its citizenry that can freely exchange ideas in one shared language.
Accordingly, this order designates English as the official language of the United States.
You got to love Donald J. Trump.
He tells it like it is.
In the meantime, we have a situation in which James Carville, the Democrat consultant, says that Donald Trump, he speculates, actually, has syphilis after his confrontation with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky last week in the White House.
What you saw, Carville said, is madness.
King George III.
It could be a combination of being a fat F-King slob, but I think it should revisit the possibility that the president has syphilis.
Outrageous.
Carville, the disgraced Clinton operative, is spiraling out of control now that the Democrat Party has completely lost power and popularity in America.
If you love politics and you want the inside skinny, well, you're in the right place because this is the Stone Zone, and I am Roger Stone.
This is the Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
I'm not just stepping stone.
Listen to this podcast now on the Red Apple Podcast Network, the Leadership Thread, with Dr. Peggy Polonis.
I'm Dr. Peggy Polonis.
Join me on each episode where I unravel the story that shaped leaders, tracing the thread that led them where they are today.

Now, in the zone, it's the stone zone.
Here's Roger Stone.
Here in the Stone Zone, we try to take you behind the scenes in American politics to tell you what's really going on.
Bridget Brink, the current U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, is a holdover from the Biden administration.
Before becoming ambassador, Brink was the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Ukraine working for Victoria Newland.
We spoke to her about her earlier illegally coaching Zelinsky to try to set up Donald Trump in a scene gone wrong.
Brink posted on her ex-account, deep thanks and respect to Under Secretary Victoria Newland.
She spent her career defending freedom and democracy.
Her values-based diplomacy served the U.S., Ukraine, and the world, setting the example for a generation of Americans.
Actually, Victoria Newland is the architect of disaster.
Brink helped cover up the burisma scandal that should have led to charges against Joe Biden for blatant corruption.
In 2014, Hunter Biden joined the board of Barisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas company.
Hunter's role lasted until 2019 when he supposedly advised on corporate governance and transparency.
Joe Biden has publicly acknowledged urging Ukraine to fire Prosecutor General Victor Shokin, who was working to protect his son.
It is this tendency to have holdovers undermining the policies of the Trump administration.
But late this afternoon, the word broke that Bridget Brink, the current ambassador to Ukraine, has indeed been fired.
Folks and Blood Tests00:12:14
You heard it here first in the Stone Zone.
You can always find us by going and downloading the Red Apple Audio Networks app to your cell phone so you won't miss any of the great programming we have here on the Red Apple Audio Networks.
One of our favorite features here in the Stone Zone is when I go to the recipe box and I pull out one of my mother's, therefore my grandmother's favorite recipes.
Today we feature her famous pork chops and spaghetti.
It's very simple.
You get some thin cut pork chops.
You slice a little bit of the fat off of the chops and you use that to brown the chops.
You add some chopped onions and some minced garlic.
Now, onions have a much lower burning point and you want to be very careful not above all to burn the garlic.
Now you simply add two large cans of San Marzano tomatoes.
That's not a brand, that is a type of tomato grown in a very specific valley in Italy.
You can find them at Christidi's or D'Agostino's.
They're carried by several different companies.
To that, you add some oregano, some salt and pepper, and that's it.
It's a very thin and healthy sauce.
I like to serve it over linguine or a little cappellini, manga.
This is an amazing dish.
I'm Roger Stone, and we'll be back with our guest feature coming up next.
don't touch that dial this is the stone zone with Roger Stone They went after a guy named Roger Stone who's sitting in the office.
And I'll say this in front of Roger.
He's no baby.
And right now, he's cleaner than anybody in this place.
No, they treated him very unfairly.
Now, give him a zone.
It's the stone zone.
Here's Roger Stone.
Welcome back.
You're in the Stone Zone.
And now joining me is a 30-year board-certified cardiologist.
I recently read a terrific article in the New York Post.
Dr. Evan Levine was first brought to my attention by the great director, producer, writer, patriot, jazz singer, Robert Davi, a good friend of the show.
And I thought that Dr. Levine made a lot of sense.
I specifically read an article in which he destroyed a number of the myths.
So, Dr. Levine, welcome to the show.
Thanks so much, Roger.
Let's go through some of these because there are a bunch of common myths that I think people need to hear the truth.
For example, one of the myths that you destroy is that Celtic sea salt is better than regular salt.
Doctor, what say you?
Yeah, you go on the internet, social media, and it's selling this Celtic salt and saying that this is a special salt when in reality, it's sodium chloride with a little magnesium.
And some people, some folks are saying, add it to your water.
Well, if you add Celtic salt, any sodium chloride to your water, and you have any sort of heart disease, heart failure, kidney disease, hypertension, it's going to cause a lot of trouble.
How much trouble?
You can end up in the emergency room with heart failure.
It's really sad that there are folks out there selling this stuff when in reality, yes, it's nice looking, it's sodium chloride, but it has a few elements, and that's it.
It's a danger to people with any type of heart disease.
And I warn folks to stay away from that.
Here's another myth that you destroyed, is that pricey olive oil sold by doctors is somehow better.
Again, you know, we get so much information from social media, and sometimes it's very good, sometimes it's not.
But there are a lot of snake oil salesmen, you know, just like there were in the 1800s.
They're now as well, selling olive oil.
You know, olive oil is a good thing, an excellent thing to add to your diet.
It's part of a good Mediterranean diet.
But there are folks out there selling their special olive oil, which frankly is no better than the pure virgin olive oil from something like Costco.
And they're selling their small bottle that you can get a month supply from Costco.
So would I add olive oil to foods?
Absolutely I would.
Would I gulp it down from some special salesperson?
No, I would not waste my money, Roger.
No.
I'm really glad to hear that.
I've been spending too much money on olive oil, I think.
When I cook, I try to find the kind that's specifically designed for sauteing or frying, but I try to use a minimum of it.
So this is great information.
Here's another myth that you have destroyed: no one should take statins.
Right.
You know, there's this feeling that statins are dangerous.
Now, I'm not fond of pharma.
I think pharma overprices things.
I think pharma sometimes creates diseases.
I'm with lots of folks on that.
But statins have been around for over 30 years.
There's no money to be made on statins any longer, Roger.
They're all generic.
And it's one of the most studied drugs ever.
Now, especially for people that have carnary disease, you want to lower your cholesterol.
You want to get the LDL down.
The one thing that's somewhat true, in low-risk populations who take statins, they're not going to have much of a benefit.
It's like giving someone a blood pressure medicine and their blood pressure is 124, four millimeters above where you want it.
They're not going to have a benefit.
Same thing with statins.
Statins are not right for everyone, but for many people with very elevated cholesterol and other risk factors and coronary disease, it's a very inexpensive way to significantly reduce your risks of cardiovascular events.
I think you've done a great public service by exposing many of the myths on social media, particularly TikTok, about our health.
Here's another one that you knocked out of the park.
It is the claim that you can detect blockages in your system with a quick test, the so-called Allen test.
Doctor, educate us.
Well, we've been doing Allen tests since I was a kid in medical school.
Not everyone has an ulnar artery.
Everyone has a radial, but there are two arteries that usually supply blood to the hand.
And before, for example, Roger, if we were going to do an angiogram through the radial artery, we want to make sure you have an ulnar artery as well, just in case we damage it.
And there are people on social media doing an Allen test where you basically tightly place your fingers on both arteries to hold the circulation down, and then release the finger above the ulnar artery.
And if there's no flow, they say, oh, that's a sign of vascular disease.
That's not true.
That's a sign you were born without an ulnar artery.
The risk for you, if you don't have an ulnar artery, is the same risk as anyone else for coronary disease.
That's not true.
I would ignore that.
This is a great public service here.
Another myth that you leave on the floor is that high blood pressure is no big deal.
Talk to us, doctor.
That's a great question.
And again, you see it on social media.
And it really dates back to the early days of measuring hypertension.
Most doctors don't even know this.
The history of hypertension, it used to be called essential hypertension.
It was felt that it was essential as you get older to have an elevated blood pressure.
And so that's where that name came from.
But of course, it's not true.
As your blood pressure goes up, as it continues to go up from the systolic of 120, your risk of having a stroke, kidney disease, or a heart attack increases.
There's no such thing, Roger, as essential hypertension.
It's not essential to have a blood pressure of 160.
And when I see these folks on social media suggesting that people should stop their blood pressure medicines, well, it makes my blood pressure go up.
Let's put it that way.
So Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has declared that he wants to make America healthy again.
He wants to examine not only prescription drugs, how they are approved, whether they're safe and effective, but he also wants to examine the processed foods that are so common in the American diet.
Do you think Robert Kennedy's on the right path here?
He's 100% on the right path.
You know, we have things in our cereals that children eat, different various colorings from basically they come from underneath the ground.
They're petroleum extracts just to make our cereals look vibrant.
In Europe, they use fruit juices.
And here we use oils.
And I bring one thing I'd like to bring up, it's not only our foods, it's our vitamins.
Folks, if you look in the past 10 years, these gummy vitamins have become a big seller.
And they're vitamins, you chew on them and they taste good.
But look at the label of these gummy vitamins.
They contain about four grams of sugar.
That's one teaspoon of sugar.
So when folks are giving their children or themselves or pregnant women or taking these vitamins, it's like taking a teaspoon of sugar every day.
And the other thing is some folks, some vitamin companies are adding a substance called erythritol.
Erythritol is a sweetener found in 2023 in a Cleveland clinic study done by the NIH.
They basically, the conclusion was that higher blood levels of this artificial sweetener, erythritol, were associated with a higher risk of heart attack and stroke.
And they recommended further studies.
And Roger, I uncovered a company called Luminary that sells prenatal vitamins to women that are going to fertility clinics.
The same women that probably watch every single thing they take in their diet use organic foods, not realizing that their vitamins may have a substance called erythritol that is associated with a higher risk of blood clotting.
So not only does Mr. Kennedy have to go look at our foods, he's got to look at the vitamins and things that are in our vitamins, especially the gummy vitamins, which I suggest to folks I would just stay away from.
Folks, if you're just tuning in, we're talking to Dr. Evan Levine, and we're talking about your health right here in the Stone Zone.
We'll be back with more of Dr. Levine.
don't go away this is the stone zone with roger stone the The Stone Zone Zone.
The Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
They went after a guy named Roger Stone who's sitting in the office.
Negotiate Prices with Pharma00:06:18
And I'll say this in front of Roger.
He's no baby.
And right now, he's cleaner than anybody in this place.
Now, as they treated him very unfairly.
Now, give him a zone.
It's the stone zone.
Here's Roger Stone.
Welcome back, folks.
We're talking to Dr. Evan Levine.
He is a board-certified cardiologist.
He's been one for 30 years.
And he has been very actively exploding some of the myths about our health.
And he's a truth teller.
He's developed quite a following on social media.
And that's why I wanted to get him on the show here today.
Doctor, here's a question that I have.
Why do we in the United States seem to pay so much more for prescription drugs?
And what can be done about this?
Well, we're foolish.
There's a lot of reasons why what can be done.
We need to negotiate prices.
You know, Roger, if you look at Congress, you know, people like Chuck Schumer, they take a lot of money from pharma.
Okay.
And so pharma is everywhere trying to ensure that we pay two or three times as much as people do in Canada and the EU.
Now, one of the things that Biden got right about, although he only negotiated the price for 10 drugs, is let's have Medicare negotiate.
But if you watch the television commercials, Pharma's fighting back, suggesting that, oh, if we negotiate prices, we won't have enough money to create that medicine for grandma that can cure something.
That is so untrue.
Pharma is right now negotiating drug prices with all your insurance companies.
And your insurance company owns something called a PBM, a pharmacy benefit manager.
And those pharmacy benefit managers negotiate drug prices with pharma and give and reduce the prices to your insurance company.
Sometimes they give them a coupon for a few hundred dollars per prescription, but they reduce the price.
So a pharma says they can't negotiate with Medicare, that's a bunch of bull.
It's not true.
We should negotiate prices just like everyone else does.
I mean, pharma, when they go out and buy cars for their fleet of reps, do they pay GM or Ford list price or do they negotiate?
Of course they negotiate.
And we need to negotiate as well.
We're getting ripped off by pharma.
We're getting ripped off possibly because lots of Congress take lots of money from pharma.
Pharma produces also lots of commercials, okay?
And they pay our media lots of cash.
And maybe the media and the news really doesn't want to report the true story about pharma when they get a significant amount of their income from those pharma commercials.
You turn on television.
Every other commercial is a pharma commercial, right?
So we need to negotiate the prices with pharma.
We're paying too much money.
It's interesting.
RFK Jr., who I've really come to like and admire, we become good friends, has suggested that like alcohol and tobacco, that we should not allow big pharma to sponsor paid media, television, radio, and particularly the internet.
What do you think of that proposal?
100% agree.
Only the United States and New Zealand sponsors.
And let me give you an example of a situation I was involved in 20 years ago when I wrote my book and toured the country, What Your Doctor Won't Or Can't Tell You is the first tell-all book about healthcare.
I ended up on the Today Show.
And before I went on a Today Show, Roger, two days before, the producer handed me a list of questions.
And I asked her, you know what?
There's no questions about Big Pharma.
Oh, that chapter wasn't very good, Dr. Levine.
And I naively said, you know, the few physicians I let read my book said that Big Pharma was a home run.
Nobody's ever heard that.
And the next thing out of her mouth, Roger, was, Dr. Levine, would you like to be on the Today Show?
Are you going to talk about Big Pharma?
And I said no.
But they were very smart, Roger.
They were very smart.
And instead of airing it live, they decided to tape it.
And here I am sitting with Ann Curry.
And, you know, I'm an irreverent soul, just like you are.
And I wasn't going to accept what they wanted me to do.
And I spoke to Ann Curry right before we taped.
And I said, Ann, your producer told me if I spoke about Big Pharma, they wouldn't put it on the air.
Is that because half your commercials are sponsored by Big Pharma?
And she said, oh, no, absolutely not.
So the questions were prepared, but I segued right into Big Pharma.
Robert Davi knows all about this.
And when I segued into Big Pharma and I left and I went on touring the country, I got a call from my agent and Penguin Publishing telling me that the Today Show is not going to air my interview because I performed so poorly.
So they got the DVD and they said, you know what, this interview was darn good.
What happened?
And I told them what happened.
So when I got back to New York, I sent Ann Curry a huge arrangement of flowers with a card said, hey, Anne, I thought I could talk about Big Pharma.
And the next day, Roger, it was on the air.
So what I'm saying is that what they're doing is they're not only convincing patients and doctors, I think they're manipulating the media not to talk about them.
That's what I think.
This is why we are so pleased to have you on the show today.
Here's a pretty simple question.
My mother always insisted that my sisters and I take 1,000 milligrams of vitamin C every day.
She would have us take it with a meal.
She also insisted that we take it with a zinc supplement because she insisted it made the vitamin C more effective or that you uploaded it into your system.
Vitamin C and Zinc Supplements00:03:43
How important are daily vitamins, vitamins like vitamin C, D, zinc?
I've read that they boost immunity, but I'm not a doctor and you are.
So how important?
I think the most important thing is a good diet.
I think the most important thing is not going to fast food and McDonald's and eating all the garbage that RFK talks about.
As far as vitamins, the question is, is it really that helpful?
I think if you keep a good diet, it probably is not.
I would be aware again of all those gummy vitamins because you're getting a teaspoon of sugar, but some garbage that may increase your risk of cardiovascular events.
As far as vitamin C, do I take it?
No.
Do I take zinc when I have a little bit of a cold?
I often do, but I do not take vitamin C on a regular basis.
It's a water-soluble vitamin, and most of it just goes out into the urine, so I do not.
Fascinating.
All these years, I remember reading studies about this, and I've always thought that was a natural boost to the immunity.
Of course, the zinc is also supposed to be good for your plumbing if you're a man.
So I'm glad we had a chance to do that.
One final question.
I'm sorry we're running out of time here, but I've read that there are breakfast cereals that are sold both here and in Europe.
But in Europe, they don't have certain chemicals and additives in them.
But here in the United States, they do.
So what gives?
What gives is RFK is right on the ball here, and we're going to talk about fruit loops.
And I spoke about this.
If you look at the fruit loops in the United States versus fruit loops in Canada and EU, the fruit loops in the United States looks like it could be in a modern museum.
Vibrant, beautiful colors.
It just sticks at you, right?
If you look at the fruit loops in Canada and the EU, they use fruit juices.
It's not vibrant.
It's dull.
But the ingredients here are petroleum products.
We're feeding our kids petroleum products to make the cereals look good.
It's despicable.
It's disgusting.
It needs to go away right away.
And I hope RFK can do that because we're poisoning our bodies with a bunch of garbage just to make it look a little bit better.
All right.
