The famous "head and shoulders" pattern can be discerned in a normal Elliott top, while a head and shoulders pattern that "doesn't work out" might involve an expanded flat correction under Elliott. [2001] - Robert Prechter

Restricting animal protein during most of adult life to maintain a relatively low IGF-1 is an important objective for people who desire superior health and life extension. For most adults, keeping IGF-1 levels below 175 ng/mL is likely important, with less than 150 ng/mL being even more protective. However, serum IGF-1 levels less than 80 ng/mL are likely detrimental, especially after the age of 75. Older adults require adequate protein intake (such as a pea and hemp protein powder and/or a small amount of animal products) coupled with strengthening exercises to counteract the muscle loss and prevent functional decline and falls. [2020] - Joel Fuhrman

If you chop the broccoli (or brussels sprouts, kale, collards, cauliflower, or any other cruciferous vegetable) and then wait 40 minutes, you can cook it as much as you want. At that point, the sulforaphane has already been made. (You can also buy bags of fresh greens and other crucifers that are prechopped or shredded, which can presumably be cooked immediately). If you don't have 40 minutes to spare between chopping and cooking, or if you're using frozen greens, just sprinkle the crucifers with some mustard powder before you eat them. The addition of powdered mustard seeds to cooked broccoli significantly increases sulforaphane formation. [2005] - Adam Ginsberg

Low-protein (9 percent), very high-fat (90 percent) keto diets are therapeutic in certain circumstances, such as for the treatment of epilepsy in children; and very low-carb, low-energy diets can help reverse the symptoms of type 2 diabetes; but neither is sustainable nor desirable for most of us as a regular diet. Even somewhat less extreme low-carb, high-fat diets have low compliance—most of us soon drift back to a more balanced mixture of macronutrients. The longest-lived, healthiest populations on the planet are those who consume a lower-protein, high-carb whole-food diet. [2020] - David Raubenheimer
