I have heard everything from DoorDash for breakfast, lunch, and dinner to Adderall and salad diets.

If you are shopping the outside perimeter of your local Super Walmart aisles you are in much better shape than most people.

But we don’t just strive to be better than the average person, that’s too low of a bar. We strive to be the best we possibly can be.

Don’t be sorry, anon! Just be better!

When asked about my diet, I typically describe that it’s 80%+ animal-based, I usually get the response “Oh so you just eat a lot of protein!”

Yeah I eat plenty of protein, but that’s not exactly the point.

If replaced all of my animal-based foods with the protein-equivalent of some whey protein powder, I can guarantee I wouldn’t even remotely get the same results.

The point is that the protein (and many many other nutrients) I’m eating is coming from properly raised animals fed a species appropriate diet so nature has packaged all of the nutrition in a dense and bioavailable way that is compatible with the human body.

My two favorite compliments to give people are “Lookin’ vibrant!” Or “Lookin’ healthy!”

On the topic of bentonite clay helping to blunt the impact of plant toxins.

For the first time in 3 weeks I had some caffeine. Prior to buying an espresso shot I had a small glass of water with a spoonful of bentonite clay mixed in.

My body, shockingly, took the caffeine in stride giving me a nice boost of smooth energy without any jitters, sweats, or anxiety.

Caffeine is a plant toxin so I’m wondering if the impact was blunted by the clay.

Someone else try this out so this becomes less anecdotal!

There is an argument to be made that vegetarians in not-so-developed countries are healthier than vegetarians in more modernized countries because the lack of cleanliness of the vegetables may include soil, bugs, and bug eggs which protects them from the plant toxins and provides them with additional proteins from the bugs.

Take a break from microwaving your brain by removing your AirPods from your earholes so I can scream at you about how the fermentation process pre-digests otherwise difficult to digest foods like grains and vegetables and neutralizes their plant toxins!

Sorry, I don’t have any direct sources. This is more so a pattern I’ve picked up on from articles, videos, podcasts, listening to my elders, etc., over the years when discussing different functions of the body and how adaptive it is. It’s a double-edged sword that can cut both ways when you adapt naturally vs adapting around these artificial supplementations.

Medical professionals like to push a lot of “preventative” interventions.

Recently overheard a dentist who recently got some certification to do botox injections (or something like this not sure the exact credentials), but regardless, he was talking to a sub-30 year old girl about preventative botox…

If there’s anything I’ve learned about the body it’s that if you start giving it exogenous solutions to things that can be endogenously remedied, it’s going to use that as a crutch and stop endogenously solving these issues.

If you start taking melatonin routinely for sleeping then your body stops producing as much of it endogenously and at a certain point it will be extremely difficult to go to sleep without your melatonin pills.

This may be the only person I’ve ever heard of who “was but now isn’t” interested in bitcoin. Which means he probably never was.

They have one with horse hair like a Hastens, but that one has coils.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but when mixing your bentonite clay with your Mountain Valley water to make a mud mask, use a glass or ceramic cup.

The clay is powerful at clinging to heavy metals so it could cause leeching from the metal utensil you use to mix it.

My mattress is literally an 8” thick pad of pure wool.

Ditch your plastic sleeping materials.

It supports humidity and subsequently bacteria, in addition to producing static.

There’s a1 milk and there’s a2 milk. a1 and a2 are references to the beta-casein protein profile.

a1 is the more inflammatory harder to digest milk. This milk comes from Holstein cows.

a2 is that milk. This comes from Jersey and Guernsey cows.

When sourcing your raw dairy you should lead with one of two questions: Is the cows pasture raised grass-fed grass finished? OR Are they Jerseyor Guernsey cows?

If the answer to either of these is “No.” then promptly walk away after shaking that dairy farmers hand (Because they’re still ranchers).

If you have access to raw bison milk you are one unbelievably lucky human.

Every now and then I splurge since I can only get a half gallon for ~$45.

I’ve read that it’s same health benefits to cow’s milk, but just *that* much more potent in nutrition.

Parent’s who are giving their kids plastic utensils to eat their food with: Don’t.

They’re better off eating with their hands.

It’s actually possible we’re all better off eating with our hands 🤔

De-plastic-ifying your life is no easy task. So don’t be discouraged when you come to the realization that most odds-and-ends things you own are made of plastic.

Just start with the key items: Sleeping materials, toothbrush, underwear, cups, eating utensils. Then progress from there.

Toothbrush may be the toughest one, but I’ll give you a hint: There are wooden toothbrushes, but the bristles are made of boars’ hairs.

Everything happens for you, not to you. They will become better for it.

Austrian Economists have this way of reframing seemingly banal human interactions into these powerful, beautiful, and natural exchanges.
