Real Results: Dad
I put up a couple of posts last year about my mom’s improvement (here and here) on paleo. In short, in addition to weight loss, getting off other meds and other improvements, she got off insulin injections. Now it’s dad’s turn. He’s racked up a lot of weight loss and works out regularly. He’s using……...

The Church of Half Foods (Formerly Whole Foods Market)
They call themselves Whole Foods but they and John Mackey have embarked upon a quest to be your savior in addition to being your grocer. You want to pay for that, or is your existing church or your own sense of rational propriety enough? Let me take an aside, because as a libertarian who’s very……...

Hey Bill!
Do yourself a favor, man. Go paleo, dump your highly paid, world class docs and go with Dr. Davis, the world’s most effective cardiologist (he’ll save your life, if it can be saved). Hey look, let’s be honest. It’s not like I really give a shit (I’d tell Busho the same thing, in case you……...

Good Thing it’s Not the Church of Paleo!
For the second or maybe third time since I began this blogging adventure, a reader came up to me in the street, just a bit ago. Now, the first time was in Whole Foods and man was I proud. Cart with veggies, eggs, butter, some raw milk, yogurt and some sort of quality meat… This……...

Der Spiegel International
I’m going to leave up the original Google "translated" version because 1) it’s pretty funny and, 2) there are funny comments to go with it. Instead, I’ve put a note over there linking to the international version. Modern Day Flintstones A Stone Age Subculture Takes Shape in the US By Philip Bethge A modern-day Stone……...

Too Many Morons, Too Little Time: Keri Gans of the American Dietetic Ass
One could make a full-time job of pointing out such scientific illiteracy. "What we know from science, not just cavemen, is that a diet full of fruits, vegetables, fruits and plenty of whole grains, lean protein and healthy fats – that’s what leads to longevity," said Keri Gans, spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association. "Let’s think……...

No Soap or Poo Update
Well it was just over a month ago when significant attention was bestowed upon me over my self experiment — months in the making — to rid and free myself from soap and shampoo. You know the story. I got a kick out of a lot of the comments at boingboing at the time, like,……...

More Publicity for the Paleo and Evolutionary Fitness Way
It’s Art and his wife this time, local news. You can read the story here, and then get a good belly laugh at dozens and dozens of illiterate and incoherent moronic commenters. It’s been a while since I’ve seen this much stupid in one place. Later: I almost forgot. Art and Loren Cordain……...

Art De Vany, John Durant, Erwan Le Corre and Richard Nikoley in Der Spiegel
[Update 2/11/10: They now have up a professionally translated English version on the Der Spiegel International site. I’m leaving this one up because it’s funny and the comments are funny.] Here’s the original German version for those who can read it. What follows is the English translation, courtesy of Yoda Translation Services. Just kidding. Art……...

Bacon, Cheddar, Cheeseburger Meatza
The process of making a Meatza is right here in this previous post. In this case, it was inspired by a pizza I used to order from one of the pizza places years back. It’s the standard 2 pounds of ground beef (grassfed in this case), about 8 slices of bacon sliced and fried, about……...

Richard Nikoley has a “Low Body Temperature” and “Edema?” You be the judge.
This is a pain to have to do this but I feel a bit of an obligation. Back in April ’09, nearly a year ago, some guy popped up in comments at Peter’s Hyperlipid blog promoting something he and [redacted] of [link deleted] were calling a "High Everything Diet." Basically, the idea is to jump start……...

Meet John Durant (and The Colbert Report)
A few weeks back I mentioned this Cavemen and the City article in the NYT. It focussed on a Mr. John Durant, a gentleman I was fortunate to meet nearly a couple of years ago at Art De Vany’s Las Vegas EvFit seminar. John wrote me a few days ago to congratulate me for this……...

Not Quite Rock
I’m going to watch AmIdol right about now. Yea, big fan — and I weep over some of the sad stories with hope, which makes my wife laugh her ass off… I’ve pretty much watched every episode since day one. I love — I’m an enormous sucker for — the American Dream. That’s my draw……...

“The Miracle of Vitamin D” (and the common cold)
The title refers to an article in The New York Times by our favorite chubby-faced purveyor of conventional “wisdom” (Modern Ignorance): Tara Parker-Pope. I’ll get to that later. …In the meantime, a bit of a personal anecdote. I don’t recall exactly when I began taking vitamin D supplements, but it was likely around mid-2008. I……...

Autism clusters tied to educated parents
After a couple of pretty intense nights of partying Friday & Saturday, staying up late, lots of drink, contact with lots of people — in celebration of my 49th — I came crashing down with a cough and cold Sunday afternoon that lowered like a wrecking ball. I supplemented perhaps another 15,000 IU of vitamin……...
