You may have never realized it, but that exercise thing the majority of people hate, isn’t just a way to make you look cool naked. In fact, it does quite a bit more… As every time you partake in moving your badonka-donk in an intentional and methodical way, you trigger a biochemical flurry of activity […]

On the ever growing list of things that we intelligent walking apes take for granted, I think it’s safe to say the trillions of warriors who keep our biological cities safe, 24/7 365 days a year, are near the top. And it’s not because the average human doesn’t understand nor comprehend the importance of the […]

There are ALOT of things we know about the human body, and that list, thanks to science, has continued to grow rapidly with each year that passes. However, when it comes to the 5lb mushy membrane which sits within the dark confines of our cranial cabinets, it’s still very much that, a black box. With […]

You may think switching on and off different biological processes is hard, and you’d be 100% right! However, it’s not so much the fact that we don’t know what UP or DOWN regulates many of these cellular actions, but instead, the difficult part is getting visibility, real-time, to validate if these interventions are working. No […]

One thing that all of us humans have come to master after years of mandatory duty, literally, is answering natures call. A biological processes that has been, and will be, a lifelong endeavor. One of the reasons for this “Mastery” is the fact that when we execute one of these bowel movements we’re rewarded with […]

One of the unfortunate realities that most people on this beautiful floating rock end-up experiencing is the slow and steady decline of their cognitive function. A condition which at its worst leads to the loss of memories, executive function and even ones sense of self. A fate that most would hesitate to wish on even […]

When you think of the characteristic we humans define as “Resiliency”, or our ability to not stress, bounce back, keep our cool, get knocked down and get back up again…. I’d bet the very last biological system that comes to mind is the trillions of non-self organisms which dwell in the smelly confines of your […]

It’s rather interesting how many similarities there are between our cellular society living within and the actually society we associate and interact with each day. For example, they both are chaotically organized in a beautiful way which keeps their world progressing, they both sleep and rejuvenate at night, and surprisingly they both seem to quite […]

The more I learn about the inner workings of our biology, the more amazed (and thankful) I become that ALL this happens without us humans needing to think twice about it. Because quite frankly, if we did, I think you’d agree, we likely wouldn’t be here. Instead, nature has left us intelligent walking apes with […]

It is no secret anymore that the trillions of micro-organisims living within our intestinal tubing have quite an impact on our biological function. So much so, that without them, we would NOT be able to operate – cellularly – at our true potential. That being said, having trillions of “Non-Self” entities living within while also […]

You need to look no further than our favorite topic of circadian rhythms to realize that “Light” plays a sizable role in coordinating what goes on with our biology and when. As a growing body of evidence has displayed that when special photoreceptors in our eyes pick-up on certain spectrums, like blue light, signals are […]

You ever wonder what your world would be like if it didn’t have a finely tuned sanitation system picking up your waste multiple days a week? Let’s just say, it’d be a bit messier…. and smellier! There’s also a good chance that the amazing metropolis cities that we’ve built would deteriorate into pure chaos within […]

We all know that when it comes to feeling good, Nutrition is important. Explaining why the majority of people in this modern ultra-processed world walk around feeling the exact opposite of it. And thanks to modern science, we now know that this under-nutrition goes much deeper than energy-in and energy-out. In fact, most of us […]

We know that there is a growing list of sub optimal biological effects associated with too much added sugar, or the modern way of eating for the majority of the population. We also know, almost all of them are rooted in inducing dysfunction within the most primal part of our cellular machinery. The part responsible […]

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again…. There’s a reason that we primates – and basically ALL categories of animals – evolved for millions of years developing vastly different features yet keeping this one universal need. A need that makes the organism quite vulnerable to threats for a lengthy duration of time each […]
