I don't know that there are medical studies showing positive results for any single factor. I've seen videos making the case for vitamin K2 and D3, as well as metformin. You will need to do your homework on this, ideally with a do

Not disagreeing, but want to add that heart attacks are usually a result of an inflammatory process within coronary artery walls (as opposed to plaque building up on the outside of the wall). Inflammation in the artery wall leads to plaque

Here's a related theory: People who consume a significant amount of fat tend to become overweight/obese because they also overconsume carbohydrates (and protein), which spikes blood insulin and causes the dietary fat to be store

Exercising for 3 hours each day isn't a sustainable habit for anyone except perhaps Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Mr. Cahill gained close to 60 lbs over a four year period. At that rate, it sounds like he was on his way to regai

I think the metabolism damage is the greater danger here. These are people who had some of the most intensive training available to learn how to eat healthy and exercise. And yet having your resting metabolism driven downwards 400-600 cal

For those who believe that it's a simple as "move more, eat less", consider that the Biggest Loser contestants weren't able to keep their weight off long-term. This approach also damaged their metabolisms-- their resting

Here's my $.02. IF is like stretching or yoga, where you start off unable to touch your toes but you gain flexibility quickly if you stay with it. With IF the first half-dozen fasting sessions you'll be hungry, especially around m

SQL as a language is simple and easy. It's applying it properly for a relational algebra of a database which makes it far more complicated.

Very cool. I love all of rebol's descendent languages (red, ren-c), and this is a great article to introduce Red. Well done!

Congress is about to pass a tax cut which adds 1 Trillion + to the deficit. Anyone who thinks we'll be sending manned missions to the moon or anywhere else in the solar system is going to have to reconcile that with a 30 Trillion debt

This. Sugar and simple or highly processed carbs cause your body to release insulin in order to regulate blood sugar. Insulin switches off any fat burning and tells the body to store fat. Whenever your diet consists of carbs and fat nutrie

I'm a tech manager. Been on keto for over a year. It has improved my weight (lost 50 lbs) and my overall health, but other than that it has had little or no impact on my job.

Zero Republican support was baked-into it from the start. Repubs that did work with the democrats, and had their feedback incorporated (161 amendments) were threatened by House leadership (see: Chuck Grassley, Gang of Six). Obamacare is lar

More than a decade later, Rebol (and its newer offspring Red red-lang.org) are still in regular use on my team. A cool thing about Rebol's (and Red's) PEGs are that they can easily parse and process the diverse datatypes of its pa
