“Some of the best evidence for the role of exercise in maintaining weight loss comes from the National Weight Control Registry, an online group of over ten thousand men and women who have lost at least thirty pounds and kept it off for at least a year. These folks defy the cynical view that meaningful, […]
The pups back in July. Remember these guys? The pups after replanting and spending an ungodly number of days in 100+ degree heat. I didn’t think they would survive. But they did. The Boss says if I retire I need a hobby. Voila! New hobby!
After four weeks on the diet, the animals showed characteristics of metabolic syndrome, such as weight gain, insulin resistance, and glucose intolerance. And their microbiomes had changed dramatically, with the amount of segmented filamentous bacteria — common in the gut microbiota of rodents, fish, and chickens — falling sharply and other bacteria increasing in abundance.

My oldest son is a physician. Not once has he informed his old parents to avoid crowds, wash hands for 20 minutes, etc. I would not be surprised if a muzzle came down from higher up. If only because we know from the Chinese experience that our health care system can get overwhelmed quickly.
I’ll stick with the science too. Stay safe.
