Do Omega-3 supplements help your heart? 🐟❤️
Evidence shows they reduce triglycerides, inflammation, and possibly, mortality.
Dosage might be key, with >2g/day (combined EPA/DHA) for >3 months indicated for best results.

Parthenocissus quinquefolia are one of the easiest #bonsai to grow and keep. They grow like weeds and can be kept indoors and out!

Ashwagandha for Physical Performance... 🤔
Ashwagandha *might* improve strength, recovery, and aerobic fitness. 🏋🏽‍♂️🏃🏽‍♀️
Studies show it increases VO2 and lowers lactic acid levels.

Omega-3s reduce inflammation and muscle damage biomarkers following exercise.
Higher doses *may* help increase strength and protect the nervous system..
Thus, athletes might consider >2 grams of DHA/EPA daily to optimise strength and recovery.

Should practitioners list their pricing on their websites?

I recently debated this online, and my stance is clear: Yes. Transparency is key.

There are always exceptions, but for most practitioners, upfront pricing is the best way to do business.

It's easy to justify war crimes when you dehumanise entire ethnicities and religions...

Yep. 100% Doc! The individual and temporal variations are really important. Similarly the proscription against small amounts of high GI CHO before training doesn't apply to all and it also depends on the time-individual context.

Should you 'fuel up' with carbs before training? 🤔
For longer sessions / high volumes at high intensity, carbs before benefit performance. 🏃🏽‍♀️
In short sessions, there is little to no benefit. 🏋🏽‍♂️
(Individual responses vary, too!) 🤓

I put mine in bins out on the street while I walk, for the simple reason that it means the bin is about to be picked up. I don't put them in bins that have already been cleared though.

The world feels a bit like a wild catastrophe right now, mate.

Threatening war crimes...
Will the international community have the guts to actually do anything about it if he follows through?

If you're throwing away the broccoli stalk, you're missing out on the best bit. 🤷🏽‍♂️
Tip: Cut off the outer, 'tough' part of the stalk. The inner stalk is sweet and tender.

Note: Of course, their improvements might be due to coincidence, normal cycles of remission/relapse, placebo effect, etc.

One of the things I love about publishing case studies is that people with the same condition can learn a great deal and apply elements to their own cases.
I just received another email from someone who read one of my cases and has functionally resolved their condition.

While most of the world turns a blind eye, women and children continue to be victims of weaponised SA in the Sudan civil war.

Illegal occupation and the systematic erasure of the Palestinian people. Is it anything other than an ethnocide?

"There is no medical reason to not be vegan"...
Yes, there is.
For example, it is functionally impossible for someone with systemic nickel allergy syndrome to thrive on a vegan diet. 🤷🏽‍♂️
Absolutism is unhelpful in clinical nutrition.

The "it's not sugar/UPFs... it's all calories!" crowd seems to be willfully dismissive that excessive intakes of these can drive increased energy intake.
If it were all about a 'top-down' approach of simply knowing about CICO and eating less by willpower, there'd be no obesity epidemic.

I once had a client who was taking 2 Tbsp of coconut oil before EVERY meal to (in their words) 'stay in ketosis... and lose fat'.
They were in ketosis... but hadn't considered that they were adding ~800 kcals to their day... and that's why they weren't losing bodyfat. 🤷🏽‍♂️
Ketosis ≠ fat loss

It's such a weird thing for men to get offended by. I used to walk my Pitbull in our local bush reserve. I would give women walking in the bush a wide berth because a shoeless, bearded, muscled man with a dog of that type (despite her being a big sweety) could quite obviously be threatening. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Exactly, mate. Just work harder! 😂

I saw a post from some 'success' influencer saying you HAVE to choose your kid hobbies (so that they can be successful adults)... even if they don't enjoy them...
Bullshit.
If you allow your kids to pursue their passions, they'll learn and grow into healthy adults just fine.

So, I just slowed down, sat on a bench for a second, and crossed the road. It cost me 60 seconds, but hopefully, it gave her some peace of mind. Small shifts in how we move through the world can make a big difference for others. 🤷🏽‍♂️

I could have thought, 'But I’m one of the good guys!’… But I didn’t. I don’t know this young woman’s experiences, and I don’t know why she was scared of me. But her fear was real. At the end of the day, I don’t want to scare people. I don’t want to be the reason someone has a shitty day…

I was also walking quickly so I could grab the supplies and get home to put the kids to bed. I was in my own world, marching with purpose towards the shops when I noticed a young woman furtively looking back at me… She continued to glance back frequently, as she sped up, seemingly to avoid me.

The other day, I was walking to the dairy to get some bread and milk to feed the ravenous horde (our 2 and 4-year-olds). It had been a long day, I had little sleep the night before, and as a dude with a few muscles, a big beard and long hair, I can look somewhat interesting at the best of times!

This winds me up:
Fitness influencers in the 40+ category claiming to have a 'simple' method for muscle gain... while obviously on gear...

There's nothing 'wrong' with using TRT....
but your 'special hypertrophy method' wasn't the thing that helped you gain muscle, bro... 🤷🏽‍♂️

I used to brush my teeth with my non-dominant hand as some sort of self-torture/coordination exercise until I realised that life was too short for that kind of carry on! 😂

Stupidest shit I've seen posted today:
That feminism, Islam, Socialism, and transgender people are conspiring to take away my wife and kids...
I'm not sure where this conspiracy of strange bedfellows would take my family, but I'm sure it would be fabulous! 🦄🌈✊🏽☪️
