👶 What's an ideal 1st food for infants (and beyond):
Over the last 10 years I've looked in a lot of kids' mouths. I can confidently say that what kids eat today is incongruent with oral health. Most have cavities. Most have underdeveloped jaws (maxilla and mandibles), crowded teeth, and compromised breathing patterns. But what should kids eat?
Infants and toddlers eat small quantities of food, yet have huge growth demands, which requires "making every bite count." They need the most nutrient dense, bioavailable food possible. That's red meat.
I think it's safe to extrapolate this beyond the first 24 months and say this is a good argument for making red meat a primary food throughout childhood, adolescence, and adulthood.

❎ What is false:
I posted this on Twitter:
If I could have a dollar for all the "correlation isn't causation" comments 😂
The point of tweeting this was to show inverse correlation. Falsifiability is a cornerstone of science. Inverse correlations help provide evidence for the falsification of a hypothesis.
For example, if someone hypothesizes that red meat causes obesity, yet obesity dramatically increased while red meat consumption decreased, it's fairly compelling evidence that red meat is not causing obesity.

🥇 What's most popular:
I've started posting bite-sized video content because it seems people prefer to digest this form of content. Here's the most popular from the week:
If you like this short-video kind of content, follow along, and I'll keep making them!
If not...
I'll still be doing longer-form education content. I'm working on my FATEST article yet, and after a long podcast hiatus (due to focusing on building Meat Health's Coaching Programs), I'm starting to wean back in. I have a 2-part podcast series with Dr. Anthony Chaffee coming soon as well as one with Steak and Butter Gal (aka Bella, the Carnivore Pianist), and some others, so stay tuned!

6️⃣ Why you should go for it:
I like reminders why "risky" decisions are often less risky than the status quo (i.e. what is riskier than the weight of regret of not going for it...)

🧠 What quote I've been thinking about:
"It is by logic that we prove, but by intuition that we discover."

⏱ How it began:
El Salvador was the 1st country to adopt bitcoin as legal tender. Peter McCormick had a front row seat. This is a fascinating account of an ongoing story...
This past week the story continued where President Nayib Bukele met with constituents from 44 countries to discuss financial inclusion, banking the unbanked, and bitcoin adoption at the country level.

🌍 Is the earth flat:
Astrophotographer, Eric Brummel, stabilized his camera to capture the earth's rotation (the sky stays put while the earth rotates). Must see.
