Don't forget that your basal metabolic rate is not constant in different circumstances and over the duration of your life. It actually goes up if the calories consumed go up. I guess in some lucky individuals it may go up high enough t

It's actually pretty easy to do without food labels. Apply this simple test: are you feeling dizzy from low blood sugar and is your stomach hurting from hunger? It actually wouldn't work in each and every case. I practise interm

Sure, but these two, I believe, include the subject of cholesterol, but also cover much broader area of subjects.

Wasn't exactly that subject covered at length in numerous books already? Just to pick a few at (almost) random, with very similar names The Great Cholesterol Con http://www.amazon.com/Great-Cholesterol-Con-Anthony-Colpo

This is a video where I show how to use real food--fruits, vegetables, flax seeds, etc One thing I do not understand is why would one take perfectly fine real food, such as fruits and vegetables, and then artificially blend them ... if th

As it happens the vegetarian control group, even if some of them do wear leather shoes, tends to outlive those I am sorry, but no such thing happens. There's a lot written on the subject why you can not directly compare "vegetar

Here's a book that goes into more depth on the important stages of evolution And the Kindle edition is more expensive than the paper one ... makes me wonder how their pricing process works?

Actually, I stand corrected - not the multicellular life evolved once, but the eucaryotic cell. According to the book, eucaryotic cell evolved by acquisition of mitochondria. Energy generated by mitochondria allowed the eucaryotic cells to

The fact that relatively high intelligence has arisen from many architectures multiple times on this planet bodes well for the frequency of intelligent life on exoplanets. As I remember from the book "Power, Sex, Suicide: Mitochondri

Well, that's a decent analogy. So the guy with alcohol problems can either lock himself up somewhere to make sure he is cut off from any form of alcohol (an inhabited island, maybe?), or find a way to address his problems so that he ca

Exercise always seemed like a huge time sink to me. I usually do it while watching tv. Funny how I would use a completely opposite statement, i.e. watching tv seemed like a huge time sink to me. So I removed it. :)

Maybe it's just the phrasing, but the squat is in no way a beginner move. Maybe squatting 3 times per week is a beginners move? To that I agree - as the weight gets heavier, you can no longer recover quickly enough. But the squat shoul

My workouts are recently down to 30-40 minutes. Even less on a fasting day :). I have an advantage that the company has a gym, though, so there's no extra trip. My workouts are a combination of weight exercises (big 3: squat, bench pre

It's even worse than that if you consider that bus or train stations tend to be the places where a lot of tourists transit. If I spend just a few hours in a country it does not make much sense to obtain local cash, especially coins whi
