Money Makes You Fat
It’s The Elephant in the Room Yesterday was a rather enlightening day on X (formerly Twitter). I happened to come across an email about Andreas Eenfeldt, a Swedish doctor I’ve known in real life for over a decade. We first met at the Ancestral Health Symposium at UCLA in 2011. We’re not best buds. We…
Read MoreDr. Thomas Seyfried On Cancer As a Metabolic Disease
My familiarity goes back to 2008 First off, I mentioned Seyfried’s ideas about cancer in 2008. That’s 16 years ago. I banked on it because it made fucking sense and now, it makes even more fucking sense. How many people wasted 16 years because of stupid and ignorant? … I took the time the other…...
Preface
How the book is won A book’s preface is where the author explains the why behind the pages you’re about to flip through, its scope, and sheds light on the personal context, backstory, and inspirations. Here’s what you should know: I’m writing this book at light speed because, although I’ve penned a basic Paleo diet…
Read MoreYou’re Fat
Shame on you This happened. Hey there, Zon (now Grok under the hood). I used to be known as a Paleo diet influencer, advocating for diets viewed through an evolutionary perspective. However, the Paleo movement got corrupted over time as companies started slapping the “Paleo” label on everything from chips to cookies, which was never…...
More Great and Cool Stuff to Watch
Sit back and relax … I suppose a quick commentary on current affairs is in order. First of all, Elon’s X has become the top news source in the world, and exactly because of things like that. Even Elon himself has posts tagged with Community Notes sometimes. X is a game changer. You have Trump,…
Read MoreLay Back, Grab One, and Watch These Crazy Vids
Not to Miss This is really short because you’re enjoying your long weekend. The Thanksgiving holiday was always my favorite because 4 consecutive days is just about perfect. Christmas on a Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday is annoying. Time for an Executive Order! I’m publishing this as it’s early morning West Coast and…
Read MoreThe Big Coronary Event Story With Imaging…
A Thanksgiving Special Happy American Thanksgiving, and before I begin with the story, let me just say that this is a happy one for me. What’s missing, of course, is I won’t be there with the family, and that will hold for Christmas upcoming. I’m used to it. I’ve always loved living abroad and have…
Read MoreUpdate on Drug Side Effects: Crushing Fatigue Crushed
Back to normal and new regimen Previous posts about the original cardiac event and the week-long intensive drug regimen and its side effects. I’m happy to report, to the dismay of haters I’m sure, that 24 hours after ceasing the meds (except as I shall outline below), Richard is back to his asshole, call-people-fucktards self.…
Read MoreTaking It Easy With Drug Side Effects
Tons of sleep It has been a weird several days. I’m not one to yak yak on and on about medical issues. I got a wake-up call. I’ll assess it, do what I think I ought under my own authority, and carry on. Since I was a child, I noted that adults love to sit…
Read MoreTickled. Chatbot Zon’s Marriage to Elon’s Grok. Now Live.
Examples to Astound You. Forget About AI Naysayers. Yes, the recovery from the cardiac event is going well. 9 hours of mostly peaceful sleep, with surprisingly good dreams, last night. Thank you all for your many messages of well wishes. I said mostly peaceful sleep. Pic from my balcony this morning. (Usually, they leave their…
Read MoreCatharsis and a Thailand Road Trip
A celebratory road trip Catharsis: the process of releasing, and thereby providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions. Enough has been said, written, and captured in video than to add my dog on the pile, so just a couple of references of others. Then I’ll get to the fun stuff. … Perhaps the best message…
Read MoreWhy Do 10-Pound Infants Drink 50 Grams of Carbohydrates?
It’s the funniest and most prescient question First, let’s scale that. Human infants drink about 150mL (5oz) of mamma milk per day per kilogram of body weight (2.2 pounds). So a 5 kilo baby (11 pounds) drinks 750ml mom’s milk per day. It comes out, roughly, to 7 grams of protein, 30 grams of fat,…
Read MoreDry Fasting Round 2
Getting on the same page about dietary and fasting philosophy and practicality Here’s the intro post. I’ve been at this blogging gig for 21 years, anniversary just a couple of weeks out—November 2003. In terms of the diet, health, and fitness, that goes back to May 2007. That was 17 1/2 years ago. Wanna check…...
Clinical Results From Dry Fasting Makes Everyone Wrong
Both CICO and the Insulin Hypothesis (LC) are 3 Magnitudes Wrong. Missing Variable. We’re about three weeks away from the next election—touted, as always, as the most important one of all time. However, this time it might actually be true. I considered diving into a frenzy of political blogging for the next few weeks, but…...
Thinking of Good Fats as Healthy Could Make You Fat
Harping on it for a dozen years… Time for a revisiting. When I first began my journey around 2007 or 2008, I hit the gym, started fasting, and adopted a low-carb Paleo diet. I already had a blog for five years and began writing about these changes. Serendipitously, I became a Paleo influencer for the…...
Talking Red Pill and Manosphere with Anthony Dream Johnson
How It Lost Its Way Well, this was going to be published tomorrow or over the weekend. Then Google-YouTube pissed me off. So it goes up now. You and your out-of-date AI just go fuck yourselves. Nothing is in greater decline worldwide than the fucking laughably fraudulent “Covid jabs,” you petulant bunch of pretenders, assholes,…
Read MoreYouthful Rejuvenating Metformin
My Look Into It and Now Use There are too many claims about too many things for any one person to thoroughly evaluate them all. Plus, I’m looking for big effects. What’s more, cover the basic bases first: a proper omnivorous whole food focussed primarily on animal foods (meat, fish & shellfish, fowl). That’s covering…
Read MoreFollow My 1-Month Mom & Pop Shop Thai-Food-Only Challenge
Delicious, Nutritious, Low-Calorie, and Under 5 Bucks Per Day Rather than announce the start of the thing, I started it a week ago already and figured it’s time, since there’s enough enticing, delicious-looking Thai food already, to have your mouth watering. Cost? Every dish so far is between 50 and 100 THB ($1.42 – $2.85…...
The Obesity of Nations — Introduction
An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of Introduction Purpose. That’s a play on the famous Scottish economist-philosopher’s tome of 1776. Adam Smith. Why that’s so will become apparent over the course of this series. It’s not just a coincidence, but a factor in the multifactorial cause of why people get fat. Because of the…
Read MoreThe Occam’s Razor Covid Conspiracy That’s True
All The Elements Were All Around Us The Whole Time and Now They Come Together Never you mind. I’m on a roll. I’m just enjoying setting aside so much trouble and effort so I can simply get down to what I do best: getting aggravated or ah-ha’ed and writing about it quickly. I was going…
