Alcohol is making you fat, stupid, and unhealthy.

Here are 9 reasons why: Image
✖️Alcohol decreases testosterone and increases estrogen

This is according to the Journal of Clinical Medicine.

Ever wonder why your alcohol-loving uncle has a beer belly and man boobs?

Well, he could thank his elevated estrogen levels for that.
✖️Alcohol causes cancer

Notice I didn’t say “alcohol is associated with”

I didn't even say “alcohol is STRONGLY associated with”

I said alcohol causes it!

That’s a whole different level of red flag.

According to the journal Nutrients, 5% of all cancers are caused by alcohol.

Did you know the FDA doesn’t review supplements before they’re sold publicly?

Neither did I.

So I paid for Consumer Lab’s independent test results.

The findings? Very disturbing.

If you have these 8 supplements in your home, you’ll want to make changes, IMMEDIATELY. Image
PRODUCTS ANALYZED

1. Greens Powders
2. Creatine
3. Electrolytes
4. Protein Powders
5. BCAAs
6. Collagen
7. Omega-3s
8. Multivitamins
//Greens Powders

Cadmium, arsenic and mercury were found in most products.

According to Consumer Labs, these amounts are not unexpected in natural health products,

And are low enough to not pose a health concern.

However. . .

5 uncommon practices that will bring you peace in a chaotic world: Image
1. View your problems as they truly are

For this, renowned palliative care physician BJ Miller recommends stargazing.

It's a form of therapy that's accessible to everyone. Image
To perform the activity, go to an outdoor location that puts you at peace.

This could be a park, the beach, or even your backyard. Anywhere works, as long as it's quiet.

Then lay on your back, look to the skies, and reflect on your insignificance.

That's all there is to it.

36 years on this planet. 19 years in the gym.

Here’s every fitness secret I’ve learned:

1. Eat fish a few times per week.

You’ll lose more fat, even if you eat the same number of calories. This is backed by research and personal experience. Image
2. Lift weights for your physique; do cardio for your brain.

3. When you're unsure about something, lean into brutal physical activity.

The acute stress dials down distractions so that making a decision, based on what truly matters, becomes a lot easier.
4. If someone in your household doesn’t enjoy cooking, you’ll have a tough time hitting your goal.

5. Improve your sleep and you’ll get to your goal faster—be it fat loss, muscle, or strength

6. Get sunlight daily, especially when the sun is at a low solar angle / still rising.

Among elites with a deadly mindset, there are two athletes that stand apart.

Tim Grover has trained them both.

In doing so, he discovered 7 similarities between the pair that will help you win at life:

//THREAD// Image
//KNOW YOUR TARGET INTIMATELY

When consulting for athletes & entrepreneurs, Tim would ask what they wanted.

Always, the answers were “more success” or “more money.”

Reasonable responses—to you and me.

But to Tim, they were comically vague. So he concocted a plan.
Whenever someone gave the familiar response, he’d give them a dollar and say, “There, you won.”

Not one person was ever satisfied.

And that was his point.

15 bad habits that are destroying your brain: Image
1. Eating too much sugar

Too much sugar causes inflammation, oxidative stress, and insulin resistance,

which can lead to impaired cognitive function, memory problems, and increased risk of depression and dementia.

Sugar is so bad that Alzheimer's is called Type-3 diabetes.
2. Not exercising

Exercise has been shown to have a number of positive effects on the brain.

It increases blood flow and oxygen to the brain, promotes the growth of new brain cells, and enhances cognitive function.

Inactivity, on the other hand, is a recipe for brain atrophy.
