n mostly, almost entirely by a drop in suicides among white people who apparently kill themselves at a higher rate than any other group. Did you know that? Did you know that white people kill themselves at the highest rate? Now how do you define equity? Because I've said this before. Shouldn't you just measure everybody's level of happiness and if they're similar you're done, right? You don't hav…

I think I started with, I'm seeing lots of yeses on locals, people do remember. I started with the view that there would be fewer of them but I changed it when the data said otherwise. But apparently it doesn't. Apparently the data doesn't say otherwise.
Anyway that is about all I have to do for today. Loneliness, yes there was less loneliness I imagined during the pandemic. Weirdly. Good, thanks for reminding me.
I'm now going to do something that will change the lives of approximately one percent of you. You want to stay around for that? It'll be fast. 99 percent of you no difference. One percent of you, I'm going to change your life right now.
I went approximately 60 years of my life believing that I had terrible allergies and those allergies were all the time. I started experimenting by cutting out different food groups to see if maybe I had a food allergy that I was fooling myself into thinking it was just you have some kind of a grass allergy or something. And finally I took out of my life one item which was salad dressing. It turns out salad dressing has this additive called sulfites. It's a, I think it's a keeps it from spoiling or something. So sulfites, because I first noticed that I became allergic to alcohol and I couldn't figure out why. It's sort of a mysterious thing. But I cut out a salad from my life so to get rid of the salad dressing and my allergies completely transformed. I do have some kind of baseline allergies but it went from the worst thing in the world to just sort of a small bother.
Now here's the first tip. You should do that if you have allergies. Wine is the worst. You should do that if you have allergies. Try to rigorously stick to a certain kind of diet for a few weeks and then maybe take out one item, just one item. Keep the same diet minus that one item and then just keep repeating that. Because I believe that a lot of you have food allergies, not necessarily the same one I have, but I think a lot of you have food allergies that you think are regular allergies.
Now in my case I went to test this the other day and I said to myself I want to be positive it's the salad dressing. So my first salad in months and for three days I could hardly breathe. It took days for it to die down. Days. And I stayed off salad for a few days and now I'm back to normal.
So about one percent of you are going to look for sulfites. And here's the trick. They're not listed on the package. How about that? Apparently it's one of those ingredients you don't have to list but it typically is in dressings. If you eat whole foods, well here's the easy way to test it. Just eat whole foods for

a week. Just nothing that's packaged and nothing that's a sauce. Just see if you eat nothing but whole foods for a week. You will feel really different. I've tried that and I hate it because I don't want to eat whole foods all the time. It's too much of a pain in the ass. It's not delicious. But you will feel different. I guarantee it. You'll feel it. All right, that's your last tip of the day. I…
