2022-05-18 18:37:37 It's time to stop celebrating kale as a superfood .

Here are five symptoms of kale poisoning:

1. Slow thyroid function: Kale contains goitrogenic compounds, which can impair the function of your thyroid in large amounts.

2. Kidney stones: Oxalates found in raw kale can increase your risk of kidney stones.

3. Fatigue and skin issues: A 2006 peer-reviewed article confirmed that kale is exceptionally good at taking up thallium, a heavy metal, from the soil. Chronic thallium exposure can cause a wide range of symptoms, from extreme fatigue to hair loss to random rashes.

4. You’re always bloated: Kale is quite difficult to digest and can cause gas and bloating in large amounts.

5. Fear of being dangerous: Kale makes you weak. If you’re not feeling good enough to be able to do something dangerous, you’re living in a state of fear.

Here’s what to eat instead: arugula, steamed broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or cauliflower! ⁠

2022-05-16 15:25:17 ⁠ What in the actual F is this?

Intriguing and interesting new data shows that round cities get 22% more rainfall that is 78% more intense. And the pattern is consistent in all geographies.

The definition of biohacking is to change the environment around you, so you have full control of your own biology.

We are right on the cusp of learning so many new things about what we can do to make the world and ourselves much better than we ever have been before.

We don’t yet know whether round cities cause more rain or whether this is just a very strong correlation.

But now we can figure out a new thing we didn’t know and use it to improve ourselves.

That’s what us humans are good at when we’re not distracted or afraid.

2022-05-16 02:12:49 This is old news.

There are two compounds in coffee oils that are anti-inflammatory in the brain.

They also raise cholesterol.

But they don’t raise oxidized cholesterol, and they don’t raise inflammation. Cholesterol is necessary for making every one of your sex hormones. It is not the cause of heart disease.

If you want to feel the full power of what coffee can do for you, use a French press or an espresso machine. That will allow the precious coffee oils that reduce inflammation in your brain to be present. A paper filter removes them.

At this point, whenever a headline says that some thing is bad because it raises cholesterol, you can pretty much assume it is based on false assumptions.

Things that raise cholesterol can be good or bad for you, but it won’t be because of the cholesterol.

Unless you are suffering from familial hypercholesterolemia, I can’t imagine any benefit from giving up espresso for flat, low body paper filter coffee. Open / Comment

2022-05-14 23:41:51 Research shows that if you live in America, you’re likely to have an average of seven surgeries in your lifetime. Wouldn’t you want to know how to go in at your best so you can recover at your best? 

This was my thinking when I went under the knife last year. 

The methods I used to prepare for surgery and the things I did in the days and weeks afterward helped me feel better and come back stronger than I was before. 

Honestly, I blew my doctor’s mind. He had never seen a recovery like mine. 

In Heal with Dave, my new documentary, you’re going to learn all of the methods I used to heal without pain and recover to the fullest (and beyond). 

I’ll tell you about supplements, light therapy, gut support, stress reduction, sleep and more so you can recover like a superhuman, too. 

You can achieve rapid recovery beyond your doctor’s wildest expectations. I’ll teach you how.

2022-05-13 15:58:00 It’s kind of funny. I thought that anyone could add context to anyone else’s tweet.

It’s called “replying”.

I sure am glad our government is solving these problems for us, because they’ve done such a great job lately…

2022-05-12 15:51:22 Yes, brain fog is a real thing, and it is entirely treatable.

What this study actually shows is that people who were treated in hospitals performed worse after being in the hospital than average people who were not in the hospital.

They never tested any of these people before they went in to see if they had a decline.

Perhaps the unhealthiest people had lower brain performance to start with . It’s not that dumb people are unhealthy - it’s that unhealthy brains don’t work as well.

And hospitalization is likely to make any brain worse (bad food, bad lights, circadian disruption, drugs, and invasive procedures all create brain fog).

Want to know how to fix your brain? There is a manual that was on The New York Times science list, sandwiched between Homo Deus and Sapiens. It’s called Head Strong.
