Episode #6 of The Primal Blueprint Podcast is now live. In it I discuss the reality of the calories in, calories out concept. Check it out and let me know what you think.
If you’re convenient to Newark, Delaware, don’t miss the Primal Blueprint Seminar coming to your area on Feb. 27.
Both biking for an hour and shivering for 10-15 minutes release the same amount of irisin, a hormone that turns white fat into metabolically-stimulating brown fat.
Steeping green tea for 15 minutes at 90 ºC extracts the most flavonoids. That would be a pretty bitter brew, and I wonder if that would be too many flavonoids and exceed the hormetic threshold.
How much control do you really have over your food intake? Part 1 and part 2.
No text is necessary to show what’s wrong with the modern diet. These 11 graphs are plenty.
This blog post from the ever on-point Frank Forencich is the most mind-rending, consciousness-shattering, paradigm-shifting piece you will read all year.
Why nutrition is so confusing.
The man who tried to warn us about sugar – and had his career destroyed in the process.
NPR reports on the “full-fat milk paradox.” I think we need to reassess our use of the word “paradox” when they seem to pop up every other day.

Looks like those insignificant inconsequential muscles in our feet are actually good for something after all.
The rise of caveman-style dining is apparently upon us.
Here are a bunch of photos of Russian people squatting.
This kid gets it.
PrimalCon isn’t coming to South Africa anytime soon. You could do way worse than this retreat if you’re local to SA, though.
One-upping the standing workstation.
A new book on entomophagy recently came out, and it looks pretty interesting.
This split keyboard might be a nice adjunct to a standing or walking workstation.
The good things fasting did to this guy’s body.
One year ago (Feb 17 – Feb 23)
