Let me introduce myself. My name is Mark Sisson. I’m 63 years young. I live and work in Malibu, California. In a past life I was a professional marathoner and triathlete. Now my life goal is to help 100 million people get healthy. I started this blog in 2006 to empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigating, discussing, and critically rethinking everything we’ve assumed to be true about health and wellness...
Kids who drank colostrum higher in omega-3 DHA and lower in omega-6 linoleic acid ended up with higher IQs.
Doing breakfast 90 minutes later and dinner 90 minutes earlier than usual was enough to lower body fat.
In a small study, keto appears to work well in Parkinson’s patients.

Dave Murray has my respect. We recently did a very small piece of the Continental Divide Trail at Berthoud Pass in Colorado (11,307 ft., near Winter Park.). Intimidating would be an understatement. It goes right over the mountains. Average trail elevation is around 10,000 ft. Difficult enough in boots since it can snow in the high country any time of the year. Doing it barefoot is mind-boggling.
Thank you for the link to the “safetyism” article. I as born in 1990, whereas my only sibling, my sister, was born in 1998. We’re not terribly far apart in age, but this article really speaks to how different I feel we are. I had been thinking it was something personal about her growing up more of an “only” child when I went off to college and beyond, but it’s interesting to see this is more of a generation thing. I had all the child seats and safety things, but still was allowed to run around the nieghborhood and play in the creek and climb trees, etc. Whereas my sister seems emotionally scared of everything.
Again Thsnk you got the really interesting read – I’m looking forward to reading the full book.
In the article about “safetyism” there was a statement about “screen time replacing unstructured and unsupervised play time.” It occurred to me that as an adult, screen time is taking up a lot of my unstructured and unsupervised play time (yeah, while I sit here and type this!). We are such social creatures. Even though say no to cell phones and most social media platforms, I’m still as nosy about what’s going on as everyone else in the world. I need to make more of a mental effort to protect my play time (and the play time of my kids!).

“In addition to the penalty, the company will provide refunds to customers who ask.”
I’m curious to know how Goop is handling the returns.
Ha! Never thought I’d see Os Mutantes mentioned here!
The insulin suppression study is wild. 15 kg extra fat loss after one year compared to placebo. That’s a massive difference.
