How the CDC has revised their vax info. Not confidence inducing. Image
aier.org/article/which-…
79% of Americans have received at least one dose of the vax.

In my age group (65+), only 5% have not received any dose.

Staggering if you ask me. Image

The well-known negative correlation between water hardness and atherosclerotic heart disease can be explained almost entirely by lithium levels. Image
The inverse association of water hardness and cardiovascular disease has been found in many countries. Image
Psychiatric patients taking lithium had massively lower rates of seizures, AML, dementia, and heart attack, compared to psychiatric patients not taking lithium. Image

How do you know if you're healthy?

Here's my metabolic health scorecard:

1. High blood pressure (without meds)
2. A1C over 5.6% without meds
3. HOMA-IR above 1.4
4. Triglycerides / HDL over 2
5. Overweight or obese BMI
6. High body fat %
7. Waistline > 50% of height Image
High blood pressure without meds:

While there is a genetic component, the root cause of high blood pressure is related to your weight and especially body fat %.
A1C higher than 5.6% without meds:

This one is easy to explain: once you get to an A1C of 5.7% or higher, you get into the pre-diabetic range.

Which is a big red flag.

Why I never workout for more than 75 minutes per week…

And why you should (probably) train even less than I do.

Here's why: Image
What do I mean by working out?

Let's quickly define exercise:

Exercise is planned, structured, repetitive, and intentional movement.

Its role is to improve or maintain physical fitness.

Walking, tennis, swimming or biking leisurely are "activity", not exercise.
Generally speaking, exercise is "programmed" as either"strength" or "cardio".

We'll see why that's nonsense later in this thread.

For now, let's look at why most strength training routines are not the right tool for most. (They're for powerlifters/bodybuilders).

Let's quickly define exercise:

Exercise is planned, structured, repetitive, and intentional movement intended to improve or maintain physical fitness.

Things like walking, swimming or cycling leisurely are "activity", not exercise. Same idea for playing golf or tennis.
Exercise is usually programmed as "strength" or "cardio".

We'll see why that's a mistake later in this thread.

For now, let's establish that most resistance (strength) training routines are designed for powerlifters or bodybuilders.

Americans taking psychiatric drugs.

Notable: women, people over age 65, and whites. Must be a staggering number of older white women taking one of these drugs.

All of this can't possibly be necessary. Image

Many psychiatric drug prescriptions must be driven by the profit motive, together with doctors wanting to treat patients in 10 minutes of office time, and the fact that people think of these as magic pills to cure the blues.

One session per week of high intensity exercise reduced risk of heart disease death by 40 to 50%.

There was no additional benefit from increasing frequency or duration of exercise. Image
A single bout of exercise creates clinically relevant protection against cardiovascular events. Image
Literally 2 minutes a week of high-intensity exercise increased VO2max and insulin sensitivity.

2x 20 seconds all-out sprint cycle, 3x a week, not including warm-up or cool down. Image
