Quotes of the Day

Three studies found no weight loss or cardiometabolic benefits on a 16/8 eating pattern (16 hours of fasting, 8 hours to eat). One other study did find that shifting the eating window to early in the day, from 8 am to 2 pm, actually did result in lower 24-hour glucose levels, reduced glucose excursions, and lower insulin levels compared to controls. So perhaps an early-day feeding window could be effective, but in my view 16 hours without food simply isn't long enough to activate autophagy or inhibit chronic mTOR elevation. Another drawback is that you're virtually guaranteed to miss your protein target with this approach. [2023] - Peter Attia

If you're going to own a home for only a few years, you should select an ARM (adjustable rate mortgage) to benefit from its lower start rate. You can nearly always find an adjustable that will cost you less than a 30-year fixed-rate loan if you plan to sell within seven years. Typically, ARMs apply margins that range between 2.25 and 2.75 percent. [2003] - Gary W. Eldred

When we get at least six hours of daily social time, it increases our wellbeing and minimizes stress and worry. The six hours includes time at work, at home, on the telephone, talking to friends, sending e-mail, and other communication. [2010] - Tom Rath

The exit strategy should be based on the same market conditions that determined the conditions to identify the trade entry in the first place. If the dual time frame momentum position was a key factor to enter a trade in the direction of the larger time frame trend, a dual time frame momentum position should be a key factor in the exit strategy. [2009] - Robert C.

Lemon juice and apple cider vinegar can cause dramatic problems for your teeth, yet they can be great for health and boosting your immune system. So, the dilemma is how to benefit from these things while avoiding any damage in your mouth. The ideal solution is to consume foods and drinks as components of mealtimes and to not worry about their pH or acidity, providing the final food in your mouth is something that is alkaline, such as a piece of cheese, celery, or xylitol. This pattern of eating allows you freedom to eat any food safely, but you always end the meal with a tooth-protective food. [2018] - Ellie Phillips
