Almost every chronic disease traces back to one thing. Poor metabolic health. High body fat + low muscle + spiking blood sugar = chronic inflammation that leads to disease. That's how you end up 5+ on medications and wondering what happened. Fix the root instead of putting a bandaid on the symptoms.

It is what I predicted a week ago. I also predicted the break up of the GCC with Oman and Qatar leaning a little towards Iran, UAE and Bahrain solidifying their partnership in the Abraham Accords, Saudi Arabia solidifying its partnership with Pakistan and Turkey and Kuwait AWOL for now. Egypt will have to delicately navigate between Saudi Arabia and the UAE. It’s what I have discussed with friends in the Western Foreign Policy establishment and urged them to hold OPEC and GCC together but in times like these national interests override!

My Alzheimer's thread hit 604,000 views this weekend. Bill Ackman shared it. Doctors debated it. People sent it to their cardiologists. But a lot of people asked me the same question. Show me the data. Here it is. Alzheimer's deaths, Type 2 Diabetes, and obesity. All indexed to 1960. Alzheimer's deaths have exploded 134x. Type 2 Diabetes. 8x. Obesity. 3.2x. Same timeline. Same inflection point. Same curve. This is not genetics. Genetics do not change in 60 years. This is a man-made disease. The chart is the proof.

Germany preventing the Brits from using the eGates to enter the country isn’t sustainable. Here at Milan Malpensa, they allow through the eGates a vast array of non-EU nationals into the Schengen zone, which includes….Germany. #OpenTheGermanEGates! #MachDieToreAuf!

What is the next Dubai? Any idea?

🇨🇱 SANTIAGO, CHILE 🇨🇱 Might be the most underrated option out there Here's why: → Population: 7M+ metro — big enough for everything you need, small enough to navigate → Best infrastructure in LatAm — things actually work here → World-class private schools → Healthcare that is legitimately good → Real seasons — summer, fall, winter, spring → 1 hour from beaches, 1 hour from skiing → Cost of living: $4-8K/month for excellent quality of life → Safety levels on par with US suburbs → Tax benefits for new residents (3-6 years foreign income exemption) → Modern, functional, boring (in the best way possible) → Direct flights to USA under $600 → Strong expat community for families The downsides? Earthquakes happen, smog can be bad in winter, and it lacks the "sexy" factor of other LatAm cities But when you have kids in tow... You stop caring about sexy You start caring about hospitals, schools, and whether the power stays on Santiago delivers on all of that Most people skip Chile entirely because it's "too expensive" or "too boring" But those same people are the ones complaining about dysfunction everywhere else If you want first-world living with LatAm tax benefits and your kids to grow up safe... Chile might be the move Have you spent time in Santiago with a family? What am I missing?

Was just checking @levelsio NomadList current top 12 nomad destinations... And I'm honestly surprised with the results: 🇹🇭 Bangkok — $1,547/mo 🇻🇳 Da Nang — $1,174/mo 🇯🇵 Tokyo — $3,063/mo 🇮🇩 Uluwatu, Bali — $2,097/mo 🇰🇷 Seoul — $2,439/mo 🇿🇦 Cape Town — $2,555/mo 🇦🇺 Melbourne — $3,696/mo 🇲🇾 Kuala Lumpur — $1,586/mo 🇦🇷 Buenos Aires — $1,694/mo 🇩🇪 Berlin — $4,129/mo 🇳🇿 Auckland — $3,344/mo 🇭🇺 Budapest — $2,668/mo A few surprising findings: → Southeast Asia still wins on price. Bangkok, Da Nang, KL... all under $1,600/mo. If you're earning in dollars and spending in baht, the math is embarrassing → "Affordable Europe" is dead. Budapest at $2,668, Berlin at $4,129. Nomad demand killed the Eastern Europe budget play → The Anglosphere is a trap. Melbourne and Auckland both above $3,300. The lifestyle arbitrage works in reverse there → Nobody talks about air quality. Seoul's AQI is 112. Bangkok has a crying emoji. These are places people live for months. Probably also why Chiang Mai didn't make the cut this month → Da Nang at $1,174 is ranked #2 and still underrated. That gap between quality and popularity is usually where the value hides

All of you should have at a minimum… ✅ 2 passports ✅ 3 residencies ✅ 4 bank accounts ✅ 1 LLC ✅ 2 languages

Two men. Both 55. Both on statin therapy. Patient A: Started the statin, changed nothing else. At 65, on four medications. Patient B: Started the statin. Treated the root causes. Insulin resistance, inflammation, sleep. Came off the statin at 58. At 65, on nothing. Same diagnosis. Different approach to what the diagnosis actually meant.

@josonenine @AllenGreenMD1 @DrDeepMD Keep promoting metabolic health. All the best

Exactly. I hiked the John Muir Trail in two weeks 15 miles a day. I did CrossFit for years. I was strong and in good CV fitness. My LDL was elevated but I took Rosuvastatin and got it below 70. BMI was 26. I was skiing when I got my heart attack in 2017. I think I survived because I had CV fitness and good collaterals. I’m lucky. Today my labs are all in the healthy range but I exercise a lot less because I don’t enjoy running anymore. I hike more nowadays and lift weights.

Before his diagnosis at 47, he ran marathons. He was the healthy one in his family. > Fasting glucose: 94. Normal. > HbA1c: 5.4. Normal. > Fasting insulin: 22. Never ordered. > Body composition beyond BMI: never assessed. Metabolically ill for years before any test caught it. Fitness and metabolic health are different measurements.

🔴 @MAS is returning to Fukuoka for the first time in nearly 20 years, with flights resuming from Kuala Lumpur in September 2026. The carrier is also launching new daily routes to Shenzhen and Changsha, bringing its China network to nine destinations. It will be the only airline flying nonstop between Kuala Lumpur and Fukuoka at launch. On top of the new routes, the airline is also boosting frequencies to Brisbane, Manila, Colombo and London to keep up with rising demand, all part of a broader push to crack the world's top 10 airlines by 2030. #Aviation #MalaysiaAirlines

@EmmaRincon @ChristinaPushaw @phung_catherine Older people planning planning to retire are worried about the costs. Still possible?

@ChristinaPushaw @phung_catherine There are people and activities for everyone. If you want to spend your life partying, you can do that; if you want to raise a family, work, and grow professionally, you can do that too.

Miami is a great place to raise children and build a family, despite the urban myths about its supposed incompatibility. There are public playgrounds everywhere, the weather is fantastic for sports and outdoor activities during their development and growth; on Saturdays you can use bank card programs to visit children’s museums. You have the ocean, great weather… perhaps the only thing missing to make it perfect would be an improvement in public schools. But it is, quite literally, a city full of activities for families and kids. I always hear people say that Miami is full of superficial people with no family ambitions. That could not be further from reality. I think those who see it that way are simply not interacting with the right people.

Recently, Singapore has attracted massive fund flows from the region and around the world. Here is a table showing how much private funds per month is flowing into Singapore from Indonesia. The number is staggering. Approximate USD14 billion per month are pouring into Singapore from Indonesia alone. The number is something like 2% of Singapore M3 supply or about 2.5% of Singapore GDP per month. In other words, in a year, total inflow from Indonesia to Singapore is about 25% of Singapore M3 or about 30% of Singapore annual GDP!
