Whey Protein vs Animal Protein: Why Insulin Spikes Impact Both Body and Brain
Whey protein lowers blood sugar but triggers sharp insulin spikes that affect more than metabolism. Chronically high insulin is linked to fat gain, poor energy, and brain fog, while steady animal protein supports balanced hormones, muscle, and long-term brain health. Learn why choosing whole protein sources matters for both your body and your mind.
Protein vs Calcium: The Essential Nutrition Guide for Women Over 50
Women over 50 face unique nutrition needs as muscle and bone health decline with age. Protein becomes essential for preserving strength, supporting bone density, and balancing hormones, while calcium alone is not enough. Learn how much protein you need daily, the best food and supplement sources, and why spreading intake evenly matters. Combined with weight lifting, resistance training, and daily walking, a protein-focused approach helps women over 50 stay strong, independent, and energized for years to come.
When Oreos Outperformed Statins: The Study That Should Have Changed Medicine
Statins are the world’s #1 prescribed drug, but a shocking experiment showed Oreos lowered LDL nearly twice as much. Here’s what Dr. Nick Norwitz discovered—and why no one’s talking about it.
Why I’m Loving Kitsch Shampoo and Conditioner Bars
Discover why Kitsch shampoo and conditioner bars are a game-changer for clean haircare. Made with natural ingredients, cruelty-free, vegan, and eco-friendly, they leave hair soft, nourished, and refreshed without harsh chemicals.
Lean Mass Hyper-Responders: One-Year Data That Could Shift the Cholesterol Paradigm
The new Lean Mass Hyper-Responder (LMHR) study challenges everything we’ve been told about cholesterol. Despite LDL levels averaging 254 mg/dL, most metabolically healthy participants showed no plaque progression after one year. As someone who has followed a low-carb and animal-based lifestyle for nearly a decade, I know firsthand how unsettling “high cholesterol” numbers can be. Yet this study suggests context—insulin resistance, inflammation, existing plaque—may matter more than LDL alone. Could this finally mark the beginning of a shift in the old cholesterol paradigm?
Why Protein Is Essential as You Age: Muscle Loss, Statins, and the Science of Staying Strong
Learn why protein intake is crucial for aging adults, how statins affect muscle health, and the science-backed strategies to preserve strength and independence.
Animal Protein Is Not the Enemy: What a New Study Tells Us About Meat, Health, and Longevity
A new NHANES study shows animal protein is not linked to higher mortality. In fact, it may even protect against cancer. Learn why the red meat myths need to end and how a protein-rich, low-carb diet supports health and longevity.
The Hidden Dangers of a Low-Calorie Diet: Why Eating Less Isn’t the Answer
Your body requires around 1500 calories a day just to function, yet diet culture tells us to slash calories without considering nutrition. A low-calorie plan built on salads, fruit, and packaged snacks may look good on paper, but it starves your body of essential protein and fat. The result is exhaustion, stalled weight loss, and eventual regain. Calories matter, but what matters more is the quality of those calories. Stay informed, question what you’ve been taught, and focus on food that truly nourishes.
Carnivore Kids: Why Animal-Based Nutrition May Be the Best Start in Life
Raising kids on a carnivore diet may sound controversial, but is it really? Babies are born in ketosis, traditional cultures thrived on meat-heavy diets, and animal foods provide the most nutrient-dense fuel for growth. Discover why an animal-first diet could be the healthiest foundation for children.
Constipation and Fiber: Why Adding More Makes Things Worse
We’ve been told for decades that fiber prevents constipation, but science tells a different story. A 2012 clinical trial showed that removing fiber actually resolved constipation in every single patient. Nutrition researcher Zoë Harcombe explains why fiber isn’t essential, how it can block nutrient absorption, and why history and cereal marketing—not science—gave fiber its false health halo. If you’ve ever felt worse after eating more fiber, you’re not alone. The fiber myth deserves to be questioned.
Food Addiction by Design: How the Industry Hooks Us on Processed Snacks
Food addiction is no accident. Processed snacks and ultra-processed foods are engineered to be addictive, with sugar, fat, and salt blended to hit the “bliss point” that keeps you craving more. From chips and cookies to ice cream and sweetened cereals, these hyperpalatable foods are designed for profit, not health. Misleading labels and tiny serving sizes hide the truth: they drive obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic diseases while offering zero real nutrition. Learn how to spot the tricks, break free from sugar and fat addiction, and take back control of your health.
The Fiber Myth: Why We’ve Been Misled About What Our Bodies Really Need
Is fiber really good for you? Nutrition researcher Dr. Zoë Harcombe exposes why fiber isn’t essential, how it can block nutrient absorption, and why decades of fiber hype were built to sell carbs. Discover why animal foods provide true gut health and why it’s time to question the fiber myth.
Cholesterol Is Not a Disease: Why We Should Be Looking at Sugar Instead
Statins are the world’s #1 prescribed drug, but a shocking experiment showed Oreos lowered LDL nearly twice as much. Here’s what Dr. Nick Norwitz discovered—and why no one’s talking about it.
Low Carb and Mental Health: Beyond the Fog
Learn how low carb and ketogenic diets support mental health. Evidence shows benefits for depression, anxiety, brain fog, and even schizophrenia.
Hydration on Low-Carb: Why Salt Matters More Than a Gallon of Water
Most people think hydration is just about drinking more water — but on a low-carb or carnivore diet, that advice can backfire. True hydration depends on water and minerals, especially sodium. Without enough salt, plain water can leave you fatigued, dizzy, or crampy. Low-carb experts like Dr. Eric Westman, Dr. Paul Mason, and Dr. Boz agree: sodium is essential, not dangerous. Learn why the old “cut salt and drink more” rule is outdated, and discover how to hydrate smarter with practical, science-backed strategies.
Why Your Body Can’t Burn Sugar and Fat at the Same Time: Understanding the Randle Cycle
Your body was never designed to burn sugar and fat at the same time. The Randle cycle explains why one fuel always dominates—and why modern carb-heavy eating keeps fat burning locked away. Learn how metabolic flexibility works, why fat is the body’s sustainable energy source, and how lowering carbs can restore balance, improve health, and reduce the risk of obesity and metabolic disease.
Carnivore Kids: What Doctors Get Wrong About Baby Nutrition
Doctors warn against raising “carnivore kids,” but what if they are the ones getting baby nutrition wrong? From rice cereal to ribeye, it’s time to rethink first foods and give children the nutrient-dense start they deserve.
Raising Strong, Healthy Kids with Real Food
Why are we forcing carbs and sugar on babies when their brains need fat and protein to grow? A new trend of raising “carnivore kids” challenges outdated nutrition advice by focusing on nutrient-dense first foods like eggs, meat, and butter. As parents, we must reexamine what we’re feeding our children if we want to give them the best chance to thrive.
More Fat, Less Brain Injury? What a New Study Reveals About Diet and Brain Health
A large study published in The Lancet’s EClinicalMedicine found that high carbohydrate intake increases the risk of silent brain injury and lower cognitive scores, while higher fat—especially monounsaturated fats from olive oil, nuts, and avocados—was linked to better brain health. Learn what this means for your diet and how small changes today can protect your brain tomorrow.
