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 use xylitol gum, do not chew it for longer than 10 minutes-by which time the sweet taste should be gone. Longer gum chewing will bring a different kind of digestive saliva into the mouth, which will dilute and wash away the xylitol-stimulated saliva that is most useful for healing the gums and teeth. It's ideal immediately after each xylitol exposure to have a period when you do not eat or drink for at least an hour-this allows saliva with xylitol dissolved in it to interact with the mouth and teeth, and for xylitol to work in what is called a prebiotic capacity, which serves to nurture the mouth's population of good bacteria. [2025] - Ellie Phillips

Foam rolling is a marvelous way to stretch your tight tendons and muscles and work out your problem areas before activity (or at any time at all). The most common areas to foam roll are the ITBs (iliotibial bands), quadriceps, hamstrings, adductors, buttocks, and calves. 1. Place the foam roller directly under the muscle group to be rolled. 2. Place your full body weight on the roller. 3. Pull your body back and forth slowly over the roller using your upper body. 4. Roll five times over each muscle group. [2015] - Vonda Wright

If you have identified a property as being particularly well suited to your needs (meaning the needs of a potential or prospective tenant), then there is no law against you asking the current owner if he would consider selling. [2001] - Dolf de Roos
