the human body naturally wants a midfoot/forefoot first strike when running. most running shoes have a excessively large heel causing heel first strike. this causes almost all chronic running injuries. Altra is the only shoe brand i have found that feels good in the modern world on concrete and allows for zero drop barefoot physiology running

Comfort, balance, and strength to Stay Out There™. That

walking is no different. always midfoot first.

everyone seems worried about a chilling effect on free speech. remember, actions speak louder than words. spend a lot of time teaching your children right and wrong and the next 50 years will be better than the last 50.

co-sleeping is one of the most important activities a mother can do with their newborn and infant.

Evidence-Based Health Benefits of Bovine Colostrum 1. Gastro-Intestinal Health: Enhanced gut barrier integrity: Bovine colostrum supplementation (+20 g/day) significantly reduces intestinal permeability (Leaky-Gut index) in both healthy adults and athletes, evidenced by lower urinary lactulose/rhamnose ratios [1] Protection against NSAID-induced damage: In human volunteers given indomethacin, 125 mL colostrum (3× daily) preserved GI sucrose permeability and maintained villous height/architecture compared to control [2] Enhanced recovery after gut injury: Following NSAID-induced enteropathy, 8-week colostrum intake (500 mg bovine IgG concentrate) improved small-bowel villous surface area and gut microbiome diversity [3] 2. Immune Modulation: Upper-respiratory tract infection (URTI) prevention: Athletes in heavy training who consumed 10 g/day bovine colostrum showed 45% fewer URTI episodes and 40% reduced symptom days over 8 weeks, along with preserved salivary IgA concentrations [4] Influenza vaccine adjuvant: Healthy adults receiving 400 mg/day of a high-IgG colostrum capsule alongside flu vaccination produced 2.7-fold higher hemagglutinin-inhibition titers at 6–8 weeks [5] Auto-regulation of inflammatory cytokines: Milk-derived bovine-colostrum protein isolate reduced serum TNF-α and IL-6 in patients with IBD while improving disease activity indices (HBI / SCCAI) [6] 3. Exercise Performance & Recovery: Improved incremental shuttle-run time: Eight weeks of 20 g/day bovine colostrum raised distance covered from 1325 m to 1420 m (+7 % Δ) vs. whey placebo in elite female soccer players [7] Faster CK recovery post-exercise: Following 30 km downhill running, colostrum (60 g/day) lowered peak plasma CK by ≈31 % and DOMS scores by 1–2 points versus control, indicating reduced muscle damage [8] 4. Safety & Tolerability: Generally recognized as safe (GRAS): Bovine colostrum powders, provided they are from healthy, pasteurized dairy sources, yield no serious adverse events in >1,000 subjects across reviewed trials (frequency <0.3 %) [9] May trigger milk-protein allergy or lactose intolerance: Use with caution in individuals with documented milk hypersensitivity; lactose concentration (≈2–5 %) is generally well-tolerated by lactose maldigesters when taken with food [10] Suggested Dosing Ranges Used in Human Studies References: [1] Madureira, A.

methylene blue is an electron donor and when you are sick it may be a helpful therapy. it has shown promise in people with full cardiac collapse but I wouldn't use it as a daily performance enhancer. the effects that people feel when using methylene blue come from its action as an mono-amine oxidase inhibitor (MAO-I) that make you "feel good"

the cholesterol hypothesis of heart disease hinges on the assumption that cholesterol is inflammatory. cholesterol is a neutral molecule that makes up all cell membranes. LDL when oxidized from another oxidative process (pufa oxidation, smoke, alcohol overconsumption etc) can recruit inflammatory processes

fluoride is not a molecule your body should be continuously exposed to: Teeth: Permanent brown stains/pitting (dental fluorosis) in kids. Bones: Pain, stiffness, fractures (skeletal fluorosis) from >10mg/day (e.g., high-fluoride groundwater regions). Brain: Linked to lower child IQ in high-exposure areas (NIH studies). Thyroid: Worsens hypothyroidism, especially with low iodine. Kidneys: Accelerates damage in existing disease. Using hydroxapetite toothpaste is a far better choice and filter out fluoride with a berkey filter

if you have kids and they like chicken strips, don't take them to Chick-fil-A. Just buy a big pack of these from costco and let them enjoy some tallow chicken strips.

if control groups without viral dna/rna show the same results as "infected cells" then perhaps the toxic substances used to culture "viruses" are the cause of cell death and not "external dna/rna" that we call viruses.

many antioxidants in the presence of transitional metals(iron or copper) are pro-oxidative. Antioxidants like ascorbate (vitamin C) or polyphenols donate electrons to neutralize free radicals (e.g., •OH, O₂•⁻). However, in the presence of free transition metals (Fe²⁺/Cu⁺), they over-reduce these metals, initiating a catalytic cycle that generates more radicals than they scavenge. this is why hydrogen water (although it appears scammy) is actually founded in biochemical truth in comparison to most exogenous antioxidants hydrogen is not an antioxidant it is a reducing agent and can only donate an electron not catalyze other oxidative processes after donating itself. it is far safer and probably healthier to drink a couple cups of "hydrogen" water than antioxidant supplements.

This is the linoleic acid molecule. The radical oxidation that takes place in your body (oxygen rich environment) contributes to all of the negative downstream effects of seed oils. The radical oxidation is what ultimately poisons the mitochondria and leads to so much metabolic dysfunction in the fiat diet. Saturated fats lack the Carbon==Carbon double bond and are full of hydrogen molecules. This is why polyunsaturated (less hydrogen saturation) is so detrimental to human health.

coming over from twitter, it is pretty wild to think i own my identity here. as a doc who was always hesitant to post during covid times since anything against the doctrine could end in a deplatforming event, nostr would have been amazing to have during such a controversial and manipulated timeline. i'll mostly post about metabolic health as it is core to everything. without health it doesn't matter how rich you are.

A1c shows where you’ve been (long-term glucose control). Fasting insulin shows where you’re headed (current insulin resistance). If your fasting insulin is high but A1c is normal, you’re in the danger zone
