    Lessons Most frightening moments

    Once my husband dropped me off our boat for a solo dive (Hawaii) and at the last minute he “helped” check my tank valve. At around 40 feet (maybe less) it slammed shut like a door. I really don’t like anyone touching my tank valve because they are facing it from a different direction and nobody...

    LCHF or Ketogenic Diet

    I love low carb but it does make me sleep less well. There was this famous low carb scientist who died on a hike and he had a blog with all this fancy science on it and he took a teaspoon of honey every night before bed and posted all the reasons why it worked but I forget. I use this as a 1-2...

    LCHF or Ketogenic Diet

    Nothing wrong with keto, as long as you cycle off periodically, in my opinion the keto cult does not like that, but that is what I think the science tells us in its entirety, in my opinion I believe in keeping insulin levels low BUT Carbohydrate is particularly important for supporting...

    LCHF or Ketogenic Diet

    The impression we get is that there’s rather high occurrence of gut cancer, including stomach, duodenum, colon … [source] I want to talk about why I think that is, since the danger that the Optimal Dieters are discovering was one of the key factors leading us to formulate and publish the...
