There is no health at ANY size. Trading one type of harm (fat shaming) for another (pretending obesity isn’t unhealthy) is not progress. Nutrition influencers are finally getting exposed for the frauds they are, and we can all hopefully get back to the simple basics.
Obesity – because we know how genes work – cannot be genetic. Wegovy and Ozempic treatments without healthy behavior change will be a disaster. Nature will push back harder than we can push it if we fail to use the new drugs as a catalyst for lifestyle change.
Does obesity lead to inner truth or the inside of a hospital? It makes everything in life worse, yet misguided people are asking us to accept it. We cannot. New research shows that obesity promotes Alzheimer’s.
There is growing pressure on the airline industry from consumer advocacy groups to make airline seats bigger due to safety concerns. The seats on airplanes have gotten a bit smaller but our bodies have gotten significantly bigger. The average weight of both men and women is 30 pounds greater than in the 1960s – and […]
Does it hurt your feelings or your physiology? (Time to pick up some things from the Reality Store.) High sugar intake promotes obesity…and obesity promotes dementia. “There are no bad foods” & the idea that ‘obesity’ is stigmatizing…just the latest offerings from grievance junkies doing real harm while claiming to be helping people. Twenty-seven years ago today, obesity killed my father and we didn’t care what it was called.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t come out of nowhere – it comes out of everywhere. I had to go on hiatus from this blog to work on a big brain fitness and Alzheimer’s project that is coming soon.

Everyone seems to have either gotten more fit and healthy, or less so. During the pandemic, 40.52% of US adults gained weight. But in the […]
Our big fancy brains took us from all fours to walking on two legs to hunting, to farming, to sitting on our asses all day looking at screens…eliminating the very thing that caused our brains to become as advanced as they are. Movement = Anti-Dementia Pill
Too Much This; Too Little That. After sitting still all day, we are still somehow too tired to move. Our brains are built for the woods but we live in our ‘hoods.
“Failure is not option.” I call BS. Failure is always an option. If it were not, life would be easy. After a recent milestone birthday, combined with numerous health challenges arriving simultaneously have resulted in a bit of deeper reflection on this idea. Long ago knee injuries from sports resulted in the inevitable diagnosis of […]
