Late-night dinner, 5 hours of restless sleep, fasting glucose elevated, no excuses. Stay the course and push harder. Growth: physical, mental, and spiritual starts with humility, stepping beyond comfort, embracing discomfort, and facing the truth with brutal objectivity. That’s…

Sucrose (cane sugar): glucose & fructose molecule bonded. You consume 50% glucose 50% fructose. High fructose corn syrup ALSO ~50/50 glucose/fructose. Corn syrup: 100% glucose. Glucose isomerase converts ~50% to fructose. Swapping HFCS for cane sugar in soda ain’t doing shit.
The Role of Micronutrients in ATP (energy) Production Micronutrients, although required in minute quantities, are indispensable catalysts in the metabolic pathways that convert food into energy. These pathways, include glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport…

Drinking caffeinated coffee daily might be one of the simplest ways to extend your life People who drink 1–3 cups daily experience around 30% lower all-cause mortality compared to non-coffee drinkers, thanks to powerful polyphenols like chlorogenic acids—potent antioxidants with…
The people who dominate the conversation often have the least to say. Being the loudest voice in the room doesn’t gain respect. It crowds out the contributions of those who speak at a lower volume. It’s better to leave people wanting to hear more than wishing they’d heard less.
Best thing about midnight sun is being able to be out running or climbing all night out with the most amazing light. But if you have kids that means that the sleep will be shoort!
In this letter, Phil Baker & I argue that while targeting all UPFs may be unrealistic in the US/UK—where UPFs already dominate the food supply—broad UPF policies are both feasible and urgently needed in Southern Europe, Asia, Africa & Latin America to prevent the same outcome.
Timely editorial by @TheLancetEndo highlights urgent need for policies on ultra-processed foods (UPFs). In this correspondence @CMonteiro_USP and me agree, adding that policies targeting ultra-processed diets as a whole are both realistic and urgent—especially in regions not yet…
Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid known for its critical involvement in skeletal muscle, heart and brain function. With high concentrations found in excitable tissues such as muscle, brain, and heart, taurine is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. It…
Most people find that eating close to bed sabotages their sleep quality. Avoiding late-night snacking and having an early dinner appears to resolve this issue. A common cause of insomnia is an elevated body temperature, and glucose elevations (and a subsequent rise in insulin)…
This might save your life: Harvard professor Daniel Lieberman spent 17 years studying how ancient humans slept, moved, and aged over centuries. The 5 myths he debunked will change how you think about health forever: 1/ Myth: Sitting is killing you
Most people start their day with a breakfast indistinguishable from dessert—and it's destroying their metabolic health Fasting overnight naturally lowers insulin A sugary, carb-heavy breakfast (think cereals, pastries, donuts) interrupts this benefit, spiking insulin and…
Physical activity is the most effective intervention available for promoting brain health and longevity. Recent research demonstrates that regular exercise, even in modest amounts, is effective for enhancing brain volume, improving memory, and reducing the risk of…
Joe Rogan: "They've got videotape and then all of a sudden they don't...Like, what?...[Pam Bondi] said something about that there was like thousands of hours of people doing horrible crimes...Kash Patel said there's nothing there that you're looking for. Oh? Okay. Okay."
My prediction: Within a few years we are going to see a TIDAL WAVE of lawsuits against Ozempic (semaglutide) and some TERRIBLE side effects. Don’t entirely blame the drug companies however. It’s the IRRESPONSIBLE pharma-obsessed medical profession dishing this out like candy
Hot off the press! Our new Nature Reviews Endocrinology paper, led by the brilliant Filippa Juul, takes a holistic look at UPF and obesity—combining historical, epidemiological, mechanistic & policy perspectives, plus a deep dive into biological mechanisms rdcu.be/ev8Fz
After two years wanting to run this trail because I was properly recovering from a torn meniscus, I did it! Now I have 3 more weeks to run this trail and many others here in Mallorca. 😎
