FOOD INDUSTRY AND HARVEST NEWS:

More stories about olive oil fraud. This fraud is rampant and it’s hard to find authentic olive oil at stores. Domestic olive oil may be a better option but this requires research and cost. I recently watched this YouTube video and it is rather alarming.

TODAY’S MAIN TOPIC:

Increasing Protein To Energy Ration To Build Muscle And Lose Weight

The Protein to Energy (PE) diet, popularized by Ted Naiman, emphasizes the pivotal role of protein in the diet for optimizing body composition and overall health. This approach prioritizes consuming adequate protein to support muscle growth and repair, while minimizing excessive carbohydrate and fat intake. Naiman advocates for a focus on nutrient-dense, whole foods, and emphasizes the satiating effect of protein, which can aid in controlling appetite and promoting fat loss. By balancing protein intake with energy needs, adherents of the PE diet aim to achieve and maintain a lean, strong, and energetic body. Naiman's approach offers a simple yet effective framework for those looking to improve their dietary habits and achieve sustainable wellness.

Eggs stand out as a versatile and budget-friendly choice, providing an excellent source of high-quality protein. Canned tuna and sardines and salmon are also economical alternatives that are packed with protein and healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Additionally, buying whole chickens and using various cooking methods to utilize every part is a cost-effective way to access lean protein. Embracing these inexpensive animal-based protein sources not only supports a balanced diet but also demonstrates practical and frugal meal planning. Chicken breasts and thighs are also excellent protein sources.

Cottage Cheese: A Protein Powerhouse


Cottage cheese is a versatile and nutritious protein source that has been a dietary staple for centuries. Packed with high-quality protein, it is an excellent option for those looking to increase their protein intake. With about 14 grams of protein in a half-cup serving, cottage cheese provides a substantial amount of this essential nutrient. What sets cottage cheese apart from other protein sources is its completeness, as it contains all the essential amino acids the body needs for muscle maintenance and growth. Additionally, cottage cheese is a rich source of calcium, which plays a vital role in bone health and muscle function. Whether enjoyed on its own, mixed into smoothies, or used as a topping for savory dishes, cottage cheese stands out as a satisfying and nutrient-dense protein option for individuals seeking to support their active lifestyle or increase their protein intake.

HOMESTEAD TSUNAMI:

Getting to know Willow.

Willow can be used for many things including controlling erosion, fixing nitrogen, living fences, propagation, wind barriers, fodder for livestock, making baskets, and privacy. I found Willow for sale here.

Willow trees offer a multitude of benefits on a homestead. Their fast growth and resilient nature make them an excellent choice for erosion control, especially along waterways or in areas prone to soil erosion. Additionally, willow trees provide valuable shade, which is crucial for keeping livestock and poultry cool during hot summer months. Their branches can also be used for crafting natural fencing, trellises, and other garden structures. Furthermore, willow leaves and bark have medicinal properties, making them a valuable resource for natural remedies and herbal medicine. With their multiple practical uses, willow trees are a valuable addition to any homestead, providing both functional and sustainable benefits for the land and its inhabitants.

ECONOMIC NEWS:

Although the administration and puppet media tell us the economy is great, all good….I continue to warn about the stability of banks as they are reliant on FED Loan programs such as The Bank Term Funding Program to stay afloat. As of 12/20/2023, the program grew to $131 trillion.

With customer deposits growing scarce, U.S. banks are instead relying on emergency funding lines from the Federal Reserve Banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system. FHLB bond capital raising, of which the proceeds are used to fund the banks, is up 89 percent year over year through November and looks set to reach $1.1 trillion for 2023. Use of the Bank Term Funding Program, the emergency line put in place by the Fed in March 2023, reached an all-time high last week at $131.3 billion.

This does not reflect normal market operations.

This is a sign that the bank funding markets aren’t operating properly and that the regulators are stepping in to help prop up the system. people. Banks are in deep trouble, with depositors continuing to flee and the FED standing up the banks.

So much for the liabilities side. However, banks face challenges on the asset side as well.

Unrealized losses on investment securities, which is the same problem that got SVB into trouble a year ago, continue to rise. U.S. banks reported unrealized losses of over $684 billion in the third quarter, up 22 percent from the second quarter. Of these unrealized losses on securities, $294 billion are categorized as available for sale (AFS), as opposed to held to maturity (HTM), whereby the bank intends to hold the asset and (hopefully) recapture principle at the end of the term. The high amount of AFS suggests that if interest rates remain “higher for longer,” then a portion of these losses will begin to be realized in 2024 as they are sold by the banks. This will pressure profitability and capital levels.

Bank Term Funding Program The Bank Term Funding Program (TFFP) serves as a catalyst for arbitrage opportunities within the financial market. This program enables banks to access funding at a significantly lower cost, often tied to the official cash rate, providing a favorable environment for banks to leverage their position. By utilizing the TFFP, banks can secure funding at a lower cost and subsequently invest in higher-yielding assets, thereby capitalizing on the interest rate differential. This strategy can potentially yield profitable returns for the participating banks, effectively creating an arbitrage opportunity within the financial landscape. As banks engage in this practice, they simultaneously manage their liquidity position and optimize their profitability, harnessing the benefits of the TFFP to enhance their financial performance.

CLOSING THOUGHTS:

Sometimes keto and carnivore diets while healthy IMO, have too much energy to affect weight loss, definitely for me!
