The obesity rate accelerated when the US government started giving nutrition advice based on the diet heart hypothesis (which is wrong) and advised everyone to cut out saturated fat and eat mostly carbohydrates. It's a global experimen

You see the same things with abortion. The states that phased in legalized abortions had their crime rates dropping before the ones that did. This too is in the freakanomics argument.

My issue was that they stated very adamantly that there was no other explanations, when clearly they are. Without stating which explanation is correct (which is impossible to prove). We can easily disprove the statement that no other explan

Wonder if we can return the favour? If someone sends us an obvious unfair takedown (like in the article) we can name and shame them. And also do the same tactics, go to their content and report it as violation of your content. Even if it do

There is a faulty assumption that higher cholesterol leads to higher risk of heart disease, but the fact the opposite is true. http://www.zoeharcombe.com/2016/11/familial-hypercholesterol... A few of the other fac

Cholesterol is a very low if not irrelevant marker for heart disease now. It's been a myth for 40+ years that food high in cholesterol will clog your arteries. Dietary cholesterol has very little impact on total blood LDL cholesterol l

At McDonald's at least the drive through is prioritised over walk ins. That said if the queue is still long it might be quicker to walk in. But inside if orders come at the same time they do the drive through order first.

I guess it also stops people from leaving. Since once you made an order you're more invested to stay and pay for it. But if you were in a long line you might get fed up and go somewhere else (or get a phonecall to do something etc).

Why are they using an off the shelf secure communication system from the Middle East? Surely something this important is a national secret and should be developed in house with your best minds. If it's off the shelf and others are usin

Also cryptocurrency. People are complaining about the huge amounts of energy being wasted by it. But if prices are negative, and coming from green sources, then it's not an issue.

If you calculate risk and charge a high enough interest rate you can make a profit. That's how a lot of the predatory load practices work. They charge an extremely high rate to people who normally can't get credit.

That's ok if you're living close to the equator with a regular day/night schedule. But if living more towards the poles then you get extremes in winter and summer of how much light/darkness there is.

You don't want to take a sleeping pill everynight. That's pretty bad. I would suggest meditation.

Correlation does not equal causation. People who generally eat less fruit are people who usually ignore health advice in general, and would replace fruit with stuff like sugar or carbs. Eating too much fruit gives an overload of fructose, w

Wool mattress are actually really good. They are natural, breathe easy, no allergens and you don't need to clean it. You just air/shake it out once in a while.
