Very Low Carbing: Let’s Just Kill This Beast
The identity of this formerly Low Carb Doc will forever be safe with me short of State torture—as will be the identities of the Low Carb Docs who have seen worse, not better, in their patients. “Spanish Caravan” (edited for style, not content) ~~~ Paleophil, the legal issue here is an example I cite because it harkens……...

“Tigernuts” – A Nutty Tuber or Tubery Nut?
One cool thing about having my style of blog that I get to have so many nuts as commenters. They’re distributed amongst the geeks, nerds, ne’er-do-wells, muckrakers, slackers…and plain ol’ assholes, like me. My comment sections are truly representative of the misfits of society, which is why they’re a perfect fit for Free the Animal. From……...

“Can you coordinate the dance of your body’s 100 trillion microorganisms?”
Simply amazing, remarkable, must watch TEDMED. Astounding. I can quibble, because I think that the best way to get your microbiome sorted is to arm your allies against your enemy. However, the presentation is remarkable for how he shows pretty well how very amazingly complex it is. And yes, that is the general thread of……...

Podcast: How Resistant Starch Foods Can Make You Smarter, Faster And Healthier
Ameer Rosic is one of those people that conjure my favorite saying in French: s’il n’existait pas, il faudrait l’inventer. Ameer has an ever present smile, he’s high energy, and he thinks. And I always like that. I recorded a podcast with him a couple of weeks back and it went live today. If you want…

Pretty much a Zombie, lately. I think it was John Durant who said, in reference to writing The Paleo Manifesto: Ancient Wisdom for Lifelong Health (highly recommended, especially the Biblical parts): “Writing a health book is the unhealthiest thing I’ve ever done.” I can relate, but on a much smaller scale. I have Tim, and Tim……...

Don’t Worry About Cholesterol
A comment by Dr. Charlie, biochemist. ~~~ Sorry for delay in getting back to you re TC/ apoB and Gabriella’s concern over a patient who had a blip in her LDL readings. In a way I’m glad that I did because just by chance I watched again the Wisdom of Clouds speech by Tom Naughton……...

Food For Thought and Discussion: Root Cause of the Obesity Epidemic, with J. Stanton
J. Stanton of Gnolls.org touched off a dispute in the comments of a previous post that I think merits further thought and discussion. As background, J and I are friends.

A Facebook Convo With Robb Wolf
What say you? Since even before Robb himself began questioning the sanity of Low Carb as the unequivocal harbinger of objective, just-so health qua inquisitorial dogma in the context of a so-called healthy lifestyle with ubiquitous designs, I’ve been chewing just like I know he has. I blogged about his own n=1 with potato starch……...

Buzz is out that Dave Asprey didn’t like his RS via PS experiment. (I would have been surprised if he had, because if beneficial, LC is an ass and he’s been wrong for a long time—which I love to be, but he’s not demonstrated, yet.) Moreover, if he actually took the months I and others……...

The Great Robb Wolf on Potato Starch
He dropped this comment on the Facebook thread on my last post, where I expressed disappointment over Fred Hahn’s convenient dismissal, since even though he found a potato diet worked wonders to lose weight, it has to be fundamentally from a low-carb perspective (read the thread). Resistant starch basically makes low carbers look like ignorants……...

Confirmation Bias: Resistant Starch
There were only two options. The first was for Tim & I to have our little gig in posts and comments and giggle in emails and keep it cloistered, or just put it out there and see what happens. Obviously we chose the latter. Since it’s gone Plaeoviral, there’s problems. Wow, I ate that 30oz……...

Happy Civil Disobedience Day aka MLK Day
Forget all the other bla bla, designed to keep the ignorant ignorant and distracted by the politically expedient in terms of contrived antagonism.
