I'd love to see more research on this, I just wonder who would actually do it.

I agree with you that the ingredients matter, but I also think as a blanket statement avoiding processed foods is smart. I think this is a pretty good synopsis of why canola and PUFA's (polyunsaturated fatty acids)are bad. I actually t

Or maybe you should just eat properly grazed live stock, might be a lot better than going vegan. https://www.ted.com/talks/allan_savory_how_to_green_the_worl...

For people that like to eat healthy, how do you feel about eating something as processed as the "beyond burger?" I get that it's nice to have another option but to me it's hard for me to stomach the ingredients especiall

If you're ever board and you want to watch something on placebos I highly recommend watching this lecture by Dr. Irving Kirsch. Placebos are pretty nuts and probably really undervalued. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I

It is interesting to me that the three areas main areas in America that have become exponentially more expensive are healthcare, construction, and education. It's curious that they have the most government control.

Population studies seem to be pretty useless unless there is a massive effect ie smoking. .05 increased relative risk was the same for the red meat colon cancer paper.

Your cholesterol can balance out over time, might be worth trying for a longer time and seeing if it goes back down. It's also worth trying to reduce your dairy consumption to see if that makes a difference.

Insulin is incredibly expensive and is manufactured by some of the companies making these devices. I wonder how much less insulin people use with these devices?

1. For children mac and cheese tastes better (and a lot of adults). It's highly palatable. 2. Rice and beans are cheaper but are small bags of rice and canned beans cheaper than some other highly palatable thing that's easier to

I found this NYT article from a while back fascinating. Basically this guy has TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) and he starts feeling more emotion. He discovers his wife is super controlling and ends up getting a divorce. He's n

Has anyone seen any research looking at the nutritional content of something that is picked fresh verse picked unripe and shipped? I'm really curious how this might impact food quality. I know it's the only way to do it but I alwa

The Buck Institute has been doing a lot of great research on alzheimers. They are taking a very different approach though. Tinkering with everything from diet, to infections, to heavy metals, to hormone optimization. Here is a good podcast

I wonder if this is the case with Salmon. I always find fresh wild caught salmon much better during the summer, than the flash frozen stuff. Could be due to the lower fat content in sockeye.

I think the most annoying part of the 8 hour work day is that a vast majority of people aren't actually working close to 8 hours. There's a lot of talking and looking at mindless stuff. My friend worked for IBM in the finance depa

This is one of the things that really keep me up at night. None of these drugs have been tested on children, and most of them haven't been subject to long term clinical trials even with adults. ADHD is one of the scariest overperscribi
