For those in Australia we have a civil response organisation called the State Emergency Service, abbreviated to ‘SES’ When I counsel patients on what foods should make up the bulk of their diet, I use the same acronym S - STEAK (or any other red meat) E - EGGS S - SEAFOOD I then add two more critical meta rules: 1. Source as locally as possible. This rule solves for myriad food supply problems from transparency, provenance but most importantly provides coherence in mitochondrial food & environment (light & temperature) input signals 2. Only eat during daylight hours. This ensures food intake is optimised to circadian clocks, and prevents peripheral gut clock desynchronisation of eating late at night. A large breakfast of protein & fat soon after waking & AM sunlight viewing is most optimal to promote leptin sensitivity, lipolysis & optimal circadian health. View quoted note →

In the latest podcast episode I talk with Roudy Nassif on how light controls metabolism If you’re trying to lose weight or reverse diabetes without paying attention to light you are battling uphill 👉

Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) physiology explains why environmental signals of LIGHT & TEMPERATURE are key to metabolic health and weight loss Here’s a brief overview🧵

Quantum biological processes are occurring in biology They govern the key functions of your mitochondria, the energy-producing (transforming) organelles in your cells Insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction is simply a form of mitochondrial inefficiency To understand metabolic dysfunction, we therefore have to understand the body at a quantum level This excellent new book by Prof Geoffrey Guy, founder of the Guy Foundation, is a great place to start your learning journey.

I often use a Carnivore diet in my clinical practice for a variety of indications. This is an excellent overview of common questions 👇 View quoted note →

Optimal health starts with viewing the sunrise with eyes and skin in the game meaning no sunglasses and minimal clothing. Why? Light is the most powerful ‘zeitgeiber’ or ‘time giver’ which informs your circadian clocks of time of day. These clocks run all bodily processes, including metabolism, fat loss, insulin sensitivity, and insulin secretion. Optimal metabolic health is naturally downstream of optimal circadian health.
