This post is a step away from my travel posts. It also may be seen as a step away from relevancy, but I think I’ve stumbled upon an important point.
First and foremost, the ice maker is one of the greatest invention of the modern era. Cold beverages are nice, but extra-cold drinks are [...]

If you haven’t heard, the owner of Whole Foods, John Mackey, just wrote an editorial for the Wall St. Journal that essentially blames all of our health problems on diet and states that health care is not a human right. The bigotry exhibited is outstanding. Apparently if you have any illness then you [...]

A health article in this morning’s AJC reported that, thankfully, moderate carb diets have been proved best over the evil low-carb diets that obviously cause heart disease and kill people. The framing of these articles is so sad. The author refers to a study that shows correlation but still acts as if the [...]

Sometimes there is a defining moment in one’s life. Just as someone being pinned up on a cross (or just born? how is that done anyways?) was enough to divide time immemorial into two sections, my discovery of Piero Scaruffi’s website may qualify. He somehow finds time to listen to more music, read [...]

If you are a peanut butter lover like myself you should already know about Skippy Natural or else I’d say you’re not much of a peanut butter connoisseur. That is my personal favorite peanut butter at the moment. I actually like the creamy better than the crunchy, which is a change, because of [...]

After being sick a couple weeks ago I lost some weight, but I’m still somewhere in the 190 range. I’d like to get up over 200 before starting a cutting phase. I know some people don’t like the idea of cutting and bulking, but to me it makes the most sense. Gaining [...]

I haven’t updated in awhile, but I plan on soon compiling a list and posting on how to eat what I consider a healthy diet (meat, veggies, fruits, nuts) cheaply. Being at college certainly makes one think about cost more often and I’ve been trying to figure out what to get to maximize my [...]

My eating right now has settled into a decent place where I eat mainly meat with some vegetables and then an occasional sweet treat. I think my next challenge will be to go without sugar and possibly try intermittent fasting on a regimented schedule instead of randomly like I have been doing. I [...]

I finished Gary Taubes’ Good Calories, Bad Calories several days ago. The book was an incredible read, easily the best book I’ve ever read on nutrition. It doesn’t cover everything I would like to know, which would be difficult, but it does an incredible job of examining the evidence from a scientific approach. [...]

One thing I’ve been looking into a lot lately is ketosis. Low carb research and dieting inevitably mentions it at some point. I’ve found that Eades has some nice information on his site, and I’ve also read most any other article I could find on the internet, including body building articles that usually [...]
