The story goes like this. A man who seemed fated to develop memory loss in his 40s or 50s, based on family history, kept normal function for decades longer than he should have. He seems to have been protected by a rare gene change that enhanced the function of a protein that helps nerve cells communicate. The man is part of a large family in Antioquia, Colombia, with many members who have inherited a […]

160 Hours Fast and 134 Hours Dry Fasting

I started fasting early afternoon on December 29, and on December 30, I cut out all fluids and entered my dry fast phase where I still had contact with water, but nothing passed my lips. This morning, after my dog walk (3.50 to 4.45 a.m.,) I had some water and electrolytes, and as I write this, within the hour, I’m about to break my fast with some egg yolks mixed in heavy cream and

A Quick Look at the Fitness & Bodybuilding Pseudo/Bro-Science, Week 45

If you’re new to me and my website, I worked daily in the Fitness-, Bodybuilding-, Gym-, and Competitive Sports industry for almost 22-years with nutrition, supplementation, and training — and was involved in it for a total of more than 26 years. Most of that time, I too was trapped in the pseudo-science of “nutrition science” and was fooled by the synthetic toxic crap of the pharmaceutical and supplement industry. My outlook and understanding

August 7, 2021. Fasting update – 117 hours, 42 minutes

I started on Monday, at about 10am, and broke the fast today, Saturday morning at 7.42am. That’s 4 days and almost 22 hours.The reason I didn’t go a full 5 days or more was simply that I wanted to hit the gym again, and I felt I needed something as a pre-workout. So, I ended the fast with a tablespoon of fish roe, followed by a small 40-gram whey shake and some rice cakes.

August 2, 2021. Another fast coming up!

The temperature has dropped quite a bit during the last couple of days. From about 27C (83F) to 16C (60F) and inside in my apartment from about 31C (88F) to 23C (73F), so I’m sleeping a bit better and have more energy. My previous fast last week was meant to be around 5 days, but ended after 3. So, I decided to do two in short succession. I will begin my second fast today,
