To Protein or Not to Protein… That is the question… For many people trying to figure out the optimal balance for present day health and long-term vitality. And right on queue with all heavily debated topics, there’s interesting data from both ends of the spectrum, making the clarity equivalent to driving through a mud storm. […]

Although our 5lb mushy membrane only takes up around ~2% of total body mass, it consumes a WHOPPING 20% of total energy. Making our neurons some of the most energy hungry cells we have… Which makes sense since they are the foundation for the cognitive prowess which has set us humans apart from the rest […]

We’ve all been caught “Lifeing” alittle too hard at some point or another… And all that really means is, we’re doing what we’re supposed to be doing! Time well spent when we consider the importance of Good Social Connections as it pertains to that Longevity thing we love to talk about so much… Now, that […]

If you’re like me, or a member of the human species, there’s just something hypnotizing about a sweet savory treat when your stressed.

For quite a while now we’ve known and heard about the effects of poor sleep on our eating….

100 Billion…. …is the modest number of neurons the average, soon-to-be intelligent walking ape comes equipped with at the start of this thing called life… A Number which shrinks by design, being pruned to about 80-90 billion by early adulthood.

For anyone who’s attempted to paddle against an oncoming current or bike against the wind, you know that momentum makes ALL the difference.

When you look back at the legendary cinema masterpiece Happy Gilmore, it wasn’t until the main character Happy (Adam Sandler) found his “Happy Place” that things started to go his way. And where was this secret destination? No place other than right inside his own head. When he channeled this internal state he was able […]

It may be hard to believe but for most of intelligent walking ape existence (aka human existence) there wasn’t too much to do when the sun went down. In fact, the most important activity was NOT to get eaten. Making it quite ironic that our modern western norms have now made staying up into the […]

Truth is, the majority of us intelligent walking apes on this beautiful floating rock will spend a large proportion of our lives working, and that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
