How the modern diet may have initiated an extinction-level event in our guts.
Social Notes
I went on the Wellness Mama podcast to chat about keto, fasting for women and some Instant Pot tips.
Whoever could have imagined that Mark Sisson’s food brand would make a vegan gift list? Or that one of my recipes would be dubbed the “perfect” post-Thanksgiving vegetarian meal?
Everything Else
I’ll eat my hat if this works out.
The North Sentinelese tribe that killed the missionary has a history of forcefully resisting contact dating back to the time when a Brit kidnapped some adults and kids, let the adults die, and dropped the kids back off several weeks later.
Problem solved, folks! Just block sunlight. I’m sure there won’t be any untoward side effects.
Things I’m Up to and Interested In
Study I’m reading: Vitamin K2 contents of cheeses and other foods.
Article I found interesting: A Vaccine for Depression?
I like the honesty: Ethical vegetarian admits that “the environment” isn’t a valid reason to give up meat.
Another study I’m reading: “A time to fast.”
I’m impressed: Great photo editing.
Question I’m Asking
Would a “vaccine for everything”—one proven to safely inoculate all of us from any mental or physical health condition or disease—have any negative second- or third-order effects on society as a whole? Or would it be an unqualified boon?

Comment of the Week
“Funny! yesterday I was saying to my daughter that I was trying to be like if Francis Mallmann and Mark Sisson had a baby. Living with Mallmann”s lifestyle, but ripped as Sisson!.”
– I’d love to see a Mallmann/Sisson amalgam, Rafael, although I don’t know how realistic a baby would be. I’m a big fan of Mallmann, but not like that.
