The OTHER U.S. “Blue Zone”
Damnit. I’m not even that legitimately interested in longevity research or the idea of “blue zones,” which I’ve pointed out many times as mostly just areas in the world where the people are uniquely SHORT, the greatest lifespan-enhancing characteristic since looking both ways before crossing the street. But here I am with yet ANOTHER blog […]

Blue Zones Bullshit
Many months ago I worked up a solid draft about the Blue Zones charade. I didn’t publish it right away, but knew someday that I would. And folks, Blue Zones Kitchen hitting #1 on all of Amazon this week is just the catalyst I needed to enthusiastically call bullshit on the what has been bothering […]

Vitamin A Depletion Discussion with Dr. Garrett Smith
Believe it or not, the 180DegreeHealth podcast makes its triumphant return today, November 9, EXACTLY 4 years since the last episode. That’s some hiatus! But the subject of vitamin A depletion as a potential dietary therapy for many conditions remains both too promising and intriguing to ignore. Today I chat with Dr. Garrett Smith about […]

Vitamin A: Vitamin or Villain?
180DegreeHealth, from the beginning, has been about two primary things: Slaying widely-held nutritional myths Figuring out what the hell is causing an accelerated increase in nearly all health problems worldwide over the past century, the last 40 years in particular, and determine how best to turn those trends “180 degrees.” Admittedly, 180D has done a lot […]

The OMAD Diet
First it was Brad Pilon’s Eat Stop Eat. Every week you’d take 24 hours off from eating. You still ate every day, but there was a fast in there every week from say, dinner to dinner the following day. You could up the ante and do a couple fasts per week if you wanted. Then it […]

Do You Even Chew, Bro?
About six months ago I got the urge to chew stuff. Hard-to-chew stuff. I was even thinking about getting some rawhide from the pet store or something (relax, I didn’t). I started pondering chewing, and it led me down a really long rabbit hole involving ABC gum, a toad, and a gimp. Now, be forewarned […]

The Metabolic Zone
Brace yourselves for the coinage of a cheap and somewhat sleazy-sounding new health and fitness-related term: The Metabolic Zone. What is this coveted Metabolic Zone you ask? It’s an elusive state of being where someone can eat well beyond the normal BMR calculations for their height and weight, exercise rather minimally, sporadically, and infrequently, and […]

Why Are Central Americans so Fat?
Why is obesity in Central America so prevalent? That is the question… I’ve been traveling a lot over the past few months, and expect to travel a lot more. I’m writing this email from a Spanish School in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua (don’t worry, I’m redoing their website for them, lol). It’s been a […]

Glycine and the Immune System
By Joel Brind So I’ve been writing for a few years now about the benefits of supplementing your diet with glycine. (Full disclosure: I’ve also been selling glycine online, cleverly disguised as a sweetener called “sweetamine®”). I got into it because my studies on nutritional biochemistry and amino acid metabolism led me to try it […]

My Big Fat Fabulous Life
My summer trip ended early, and I had to spend a couple weeks in a hotel room. In hotel rooms I often find myself doing something I rarely do, which is watch television. A LOT of television. Stupid amounts. The kind of TV-watching where you only stand up to dust the potato chip crumbs off […]
