@PeterDiamandis All signs contradict you: raising inequalities, erosion of truth, rampant totalitarism, plastic everywhere, kids getting dumber with screens, AI making us lazy, losing our primary forests. Perhaps Hollywood movies didn't do a good job on you.

@Seanfrank I'll give him the world's most insecure Man award (well second place after the Don)

AND YOU STILL DOUBT THE ZUCK?

@Arciel___Baez Haha nice one, didn’t know that. But it makes sense. When the body does not have to work to make semen, it likely preserve its cells integrity. Just like small people live longer because their body didn’t get exhausted growing at a rapid pace.
English

1) you would need to check her claim, 65 years ago meat was much more expensive, she would have needed to be very wealthy to eat mostly meat
2) many people get very old despite their habits, look at Jeanne Calment smoking until her death for example, look at Donald trump still alive despite his terrible fast food diet
3) single stories never prove anything in science
English

@ted_ryce Explain then why a person in their 80s who has not eaten fibre in 65 years is one of the strongest ladies you'll ever meet. Routinely carrying 50lbs in each hand.

English

@ronaldtenholte @carnivorerev Yep. I agree. And you know what, I could care less about what they do. If they gamble and lose… Well, people do stupid stuff all the time.
English

@ted_ryce And a recent study find it’s good to słów down immunity aging, particularly t-cells
English


I Think that the concern is More that carbs lead to glucose spikes, which incidently requires insulin to lower the level. But this can be adressed with lifestyle changes like a walk after eating. Carnivore might help digestions in the short term because proteins are so easy to digest. But long term, you make your digestive system weak. Not to mention how expensive and unecologic this diet is.
English

Carbs are terrible because it increase insulin.
Glycine, one of the healthiest amino acids, improves glucose disposal by releasing more insulin
Wait…what!
Yes, insulin isn’t bad. Only the (gut fucked) carni-tards believe that.
And to call them out a little more, low brain glucose leads to aggression. Just check the comments.

@theandreiverdes Thanks for sharing your experience! What about a coder and a marketer?

My wife and i argue about code at 11 pm
Not romantic
But we're shipping
Everyone romanticizes building with your spouse
Matching MacBooks
Coffee shop aesthetics
that's not reality
reality is debating our affiliate system at midnight
debugging at 2 AM
hard talks about risk
But here's the advantage: speed
corporations spend weeks in meetings
we decide in 10 minutes over breakfast
No layers
No politics
Complete trust
some days we're in flow
some days we're snapping at each other
but we're shipping
building with your spouse isn't romantic
It's messy
But nothing moves faster
Two SaaS launching in 2 weeks
same office room

@BiggestComeback Haha nice one 🤣
Well wearing even lower size will be best since shorter people in generał live longer.
English

A Swedish study found that men who wear size 11 shoes have the longest lifespan.
Despite wearing size 14s my entire adult life, I’ve decided to start cramming my feet into size 11 shoes.
It’s uncomfortable, but if it adds a few years to my life, it’s totally worth it.
I’ll focus on my LDL next week.

@drishanshaha Nice thread. For me it is the cleaning process during deep sleep which was the most striking thing about sleep. But REM is also cricial, especially for regulating emotion and feeling positive the next morning. It’s like a psychologiczno therapy removing the last day’s trauma.

New study: a GLP-1 drug (tecepatide) may be the first medication to treat sleep apnea. Patients saw a fivefold reduction in severity, and 50% needed no further treatment. Could be a game-changer! #SleepApnea #GLP1

1/ Dentists may soon fight cavities without drills.
Researchers have developed a gel that can restore real tooth enamel—the hardest substance in the human body.
It’s not a patch, not a coating, actual regrowth!
If this works in humans, dentistry changes forever.

@markeatsmeat Wrong Logic. People very old today were eating much less meat in their youth. So you better say live long despite recently eating a lot of meat.
English

Hong Kong has one of the world’s longest life expectancies.
They also eat more meat per person than anywhere else.

David Sinclair@davidasinclair
Modeling across seven nations shows that swapping meat and sweets for beans, nuts, and whole grains could add a decade to life expectancy ajcn.nutrition.org/article/S0002-…

@SamaHoole This is not true for every tumor. Some cancerous cells actually really like cetones.
English

Cancer cells have 10x more insulin receptors than normal cells.
They're glucose-dependent. They ferment glucose even in the presence of oxygen (Warburg Effect).
Ketogenic diets:
- Drop blood glucose by 30-40%
- Lower insulin by 50-70%
- Starve cancer cells of their primary fuel
- Force them to attempt mitochondrial respiration (which they're bad at)
Normal cells thrive on ketones. Cancer cells can't efficiently use them.
Why isn't this standard oncology protocol?
